In this paper, hydrogenated amorphous silicon(a-Si:H) grating coupler with distributed Bragg reflector(DBR) is proposed to achieve high-efficiency nanophotonic radiator for Light Detection and Ranging(LiDAR) application. The DBR reduces downward leakage of the optical field below the grating region. As a result, the far-field intensity shows about 1.4 times stronger, compared to the common grating coupler without the DBR.

Lasing characteristics of an Er-doped fiber laser have been investigated at various conditions of resonator reflectivities and pump powers. Variation of the laser wavelength with various mirror reflectivities has been compared with the theoretical analysis based on absorption, gain spectra, and resonator parameters. The maximum slope efficiency of 38% was obtained with the resonator's mirror reflectivities of 100% and 4% on both sides, and the threshold powers were varied from 7.8 mW to 5.6 mW, and lasing wavelengths were varied $1.532\mum to 1.563\mum and 1.558 \mum to 1.570 \mum$ for 6 and 15.8 mlong Er-doped fiber, respectively, as the resonator reflectivities were changed from 0.0016 to 0.9.to 0.9.

분포 브래그 반사기(distributed Bragg reflector; DBR)는 광센서, 도파로, 태양전지, 반도체 레이저 다이오드, 광검출기와 같은 고성능 광 및 광전소자 응용분야에 널리 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로, DBR은 박막의 두께를 4분의 1 파장(${\lambda}/4$)으로 가지는 서로 다른 저굴절율 물질과 고굴절율 물질을 교대로 적층 (pair)한 다중 pair로 제작되어지며, DBR의 반사 특성과 반사대역폭은 두 물질의 굴절율 차이와 pair의 수에 영향을 받는다. 그러나, 서로 다른 굴절율을 갖는 두 물질을 이용하는 DBR의 경우, 두 물질간 열팽창계수의 불일치, 접착력 문제, 높은 굴절율 차이를 갖는 물질 선택의 어려움 등 많은 문제점을 지니고 있다. 최근, 경사입사각증착법을 이용한 동일 재료(예, 인듐 주석 산화물, 게르마늄, 실리콘)기반의 DBR 제작 및 특성에 대한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 높은 입사각을 갖고 박막이 증착될 경우, 저율을 갖는 다공박막 제작이 가능하여 경사입사각증착법으로 homogeneous 물질 기반의 고반사 특성을 갖는 다중 pair의 DBR을 제작할 수 있다. 본 실험은, 갈륨비소 기판 위에 경사입사각증착법 및 전자빔증착법을 이용하여 중심파장 960 nm가 되는 이산화 티타늄 기반의 DBR을 제작하였고, 제작된 샘플의 증착된 박막의 표면 및 단면의 프로파일은 주사전자현미경을 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-Vis-NIR 스펙트로미터를 이용하여 반사율 특성을 조사하였다.

반사광은 표면에 대한 다양한 정보를 포함하고 있다. 반사광 속에서 표면의 거칠기 정보를 알아내 기 위한 노력이 계속되었고, 이를 통해 여러 표면 거칠기 측정법 중에서도 인프로세스 측정에 큰 장 점이 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 알려진 바로는 하나의 반사광을 정반사 성분와 난반사 성분으로 구분할 수 있으며 정반사 성분은 광 강도가, 난반사 성분은 광 분포가 중요하다. 매끈한 면에서는 정반사 성분이 지배적이며, 거친 면에서는 난반사 성분이 지배적이고, 그 중간 단계의 면에서는 두 성분이 합해져서 동시에 나타난다.(중략)

This paper examines the feasibility of using periodically varying dielectric layers with dielectric constant ${\epsilon}_1$ and ${\epsilon}_2$ at millimeter wave frequency for implementing the frequency-selective reflectors that permit feed separation in large aperture reflecting antenna systems. For oblique incidence, it is found that the total reflection can be obtained at different frequencies for proper choices of ${\epsilon}_1$, ${\epsilon}_2$ and the geometric parameters. In the frequency-selective reflector designed, the bandwidth for 90% reflection is always found to be much narrower than that for 90% transmission.

In this paper, modified square loop frequency selective surface for dualband communication antenna systems is proposed, and the scattering characteristics is discussed. The analysis for the problem of scattering by periodic structures with a dielectric slab is formulated using the spectral-domain immittance approach and Floquet's theorem. The method of moments which uses rooftop subdomain basis function is employed to solve the equations. Numerical results include the comparison between the transmission characteristic of general square loop and that of modified square loop. Also, the transmission characteristics of modified square loop for arbitrary incident angle and polarization is presented. To verify analysis results, modified square loop frequency selective surface was fabricated and the calculated results were compared with the measured results. The measured results showed good agreement with the calculated results.

Basic research is conducted to identify a target using corner reflectors which are commonly used in calibration of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. At first, an omni-directional reflector is fabricated by combining four 15-cm rectangular trihedral corner reflectors. Then, its radar cross section (RCS) characteristics are measured at C-band (5.3 GHz) for vv-, hh-, hv-, and vh- polarizations at a range of horizontal angle, $-90^{\circ}{\le}{\phi}{\le}90^{\circ}$. The measured RCS angular variation of the omni-directional reflector is much smaller for vv-polarization than other polarizations, and the difference between the maximum and minimum RCSs for vv-polarization is about 8 dB. Peak RCS values are shown at $0^{\circ}$ (normal to plates) and $45^{\circ}$ (direction of bore sight). It is shown that the measurements agree quite well with numerical simulation and theoretical computation results.

The new periodic array structure or frequency selective surface with polarizers characteristic is proposed. The present structure is constructed with two sheets or FSS material, spaced about one-eight wavelength apart, the dipole element orientations of the two sheets being almost perpendicular to each other. The methods of the spectral domain immittance and MoM are used to analyze electromagnetic scattering from this periodic array structure. To confirm the validity of the polrizer's functions or the new periodic array structure, frequency selective surfaces are fabricated, calculated values for the frequency response of the reflection and transmission loss are compared with measured values. Good correspondence has been observed between them. Good axial ratio has been also observed to be achieved in the proposed structure.

Via terahertz (THz) reflection radar, the characterizations of reflected THz electromagnetic pulses are reported. Quasi-optical techniques are used to efficiently reflect pulses of THz electromagnetic radiation from an aluminum mirror and several conducting and nonconducting materials. An incident THz pulse is reflected up to 9 times to know the magnitude change of a reflected pulse from the aluminum mirror. Using this method, aluminum board, undoped silicon, quartz, and LDPE samples' reflection coefficient and index of refraction can be measured. These results suggest a possible application of transient THz reflection spectroscopy without surface contact.ontact.
