두 개의 모드가 간섭하는 LiNbO3 광도파로를 이용하여 기존의 편광 분리기와는 달리 두 개의 전극에 의해 두 편광의 출력을 임의로 조절할 수 있는 편광 분리기를 제작하였으며, 두 전극에 각각 52V, 72V를 걸어주어 20dB 이상의 분리도를 얻을 수 있다.

광소자 설계 시 TE/TM 분극에 대한 민감도는 매우 중요한 요소로 작용을 한다. 이러한 민감도를 줄이기 위해 많은 광소자에 다중모드 간섭기가 이용되고 있다. 다중모드 간섭기에 입력되는 신호는 TE와 TM 두 모드의 분극으로 이루어져 있으며, 각각은 도파로 내에 존재하는 모드에 실려 50：50의 파워 분배를 가지고 진행하게 된다. 그러므로 광소자를 제작하기 위해 TE 또는 TM 모드만을 고려하는 것은 소자의 효율을 떨어뜨리는 요인으로 작용한다. (중략)

$Si_3N_4$ rib-optical waveguides for evanescent-wave integrated-optical biosensors were analytically interpreted, to derive the single-mode propagation conditions. The integrated-optical biosensor structure based on two-mode interference was proposed, and the rib width and thickness and core thickness for a single-mode and two-mode waveguide (sensing region) were proposed to be $3{\mu}m$, 2 nm, and 150 nm and $3{\mu}m$, 20 nm, and 340 nm respectively. The optical characteristics of each guided-wave mode were investigated utilizing the film mode-matching (FMM) analysis.

A novel interferometric isolator has been proposed and designed to fabrticate waveguide magnetooptic isolator operating at a wavelength of $1.55{\cal}um$. The device consists of MMI (multimode interference) couplers and has a magnetooptic guiding layer with different layer structure in arms of the inteferometer. The layer structures in the arms of inteferometer are $HfO_2/CeY_2Fe_5O_{12}/NOG$ and $SiO_2/CeY_2Fe_5O_{12}/NOG$, respectively. This configuration give rise to different nonreciprocal phase shift. In consequence, the isolator operates under a unidirectional magnetic field. The optimized structure of the isolator was determined by a 3D beam propagation method.

Passive polarization mode splitters at λ= 1.55 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were designed and fabricated based on Ti:x-cut LiNbO$_3$ single-mode optical waveguide and two-mode interference theory. The splitting ratio with waveguide width 8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, branching angle 0.55$^{\circ}$ and interfering length 470 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ showed 16.18 dB, 21.25 dB for TE and TM input polarization modes, respectively. Polarization cross-talk of -16.28 dB and -21.28 dB for TE and TM modes was achieved. Total insertion losses of 2.24 dB/cm (TE) and 2.41 dB/cm (TM) were also measured. The devices operated nearly wavelength independently over a range or 30 nm.

A wide dynamic range heterodyne interferometer scheme using intermode beat between a stabilized, dual frequency He-Ne laser beam has been applied for a measurement of optical thickness of an optical medium. Resolution of the optical thickness measurement is about $\pm$ 1.74 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Using this technique, we are able to determine the optical thickness of an organic dye film. We also obtain a map of the optical thickness variations over a surface of the film

A compact beam combiner based on two-mode interference (TMI) in multimode waveguides is proposed, and its feasibility is shown through simulation with the three-dimensional beam propagation method. The input waveguides are separated by about 1 ㎛ at the interface with the multimode waveguide, so that the fabricated waveguide pattern is well repeated. The power transmission to the output port from the red, green, and blue input port is 93.5%, 94%, and 93%, respectively. When the wavelength deviation from a center wavelength is 10 nm, the power transmission is maintained to be greater than 90%. When the waveguide width error is 40 nm, the power transmission is maintained to be greater than 85% for all the three colors. The polarization dependence of the beam combiner is almost negligible, and its size is as tiny as 0.02 × 4 ㎟.

This paper presents a rigorous comparison of the design characteristics of polarization-insensitive directional coupler (DC) and multimode interference (MMI) coupler based on rib type waveguides, by using longitudinal modal transmission-line theory (L-MTLT). It shows that the multimode mixing and interference property of MMI can be structurally designed through the continuous evolution of the two-mode coupling property of DC. It also compares and analyzes the coupling efficiency along with the coupling length and the wavelength between polarization-insensitive DC and MMI. From the design properties obtained, it demonstrates for the first time the integration of polarization-insensitive DC or MMI with a Bragg grating and evaluates precisely the filtering characteristics. The numerical results reveal that the DC, as long as it is designed to have the same coupling length for TE and TM modes, has better performance than the MMI in polarization-insensitive filtering behaviour. However, it shows that the MMI with much less coupling length than DC is preferred in the miniaturization of integrated devices.

지금까지 대부분의 인공위성 또는 항공기 SAR 시스템은 하나의 위상 배열 안테나를 이용하며, 단 영상을 생성하고 판독하는데 주로 사용되었지만, 차세대 SAR 시스템은 다중 편파 관측이 가능하거나 이중 채널 또는 위상 배열 안테나의 분리 모드(split-antenna mode)를 통해 간섭기법의 적용이 가능한 시스템으로 발전이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 측면에서 이 논문은 차세대 SAR 인공위성의 새로운 분석 기법 연구와 활용 증진을 위해, 유사한 기능을 보일 수 있는 이중 채널 항공기 SAR 시스템을 구축하고, 이로부터 단일 패스 간섭기법(single-pass interferometry)을 연구한 논문이다. 공간적으로 서로 다른 위치에 있는 두 개의 SAR 채널에서 동시에 수신된 레이다 신호를 간섭적으로 처리하여, 지형의 고도 정보를 추출하거나 이동하는 물체의 속도를 탐지할 수 있도록 알고리즘을 구현하였고, 새로운 활용 분야를 모색하고자 하였다.

This paper introduces an interference analyzer based on the statistical approach called the Monte Carlo methodology, which has been chosen as one of the interference analyzing techniques in ITU-R. Furthermore, using the interference analyzer developed in this paper with modified Hata model, computer simulation is performed to examine probability of interference affecting between the base stations with FDD and TDD modes for IMT-2000. Through the simulation results, it is confirmed that two different systems with FDD/TDD modes of same frequency bands can be simultaneously used in a cell without significant interference, under the parameter conditions specified in this paper.
