The effects of twist induced birefringence on the polarization properties of Er and Nd fiber laser with a linear type cavity were experimentally observed and theoretically analyzed. As the twist rate increases, the polarization states of the polarization eigenmodes are found to be always linear, and their frequencies gradually coincide with each other, and their polarization directions rotate at about half of twist rate at large twist rates.

VVA(Variable Valve Actuation) 기술은 엔진의 흡기 밸브 작동 모드를 가변하여, 엔진의 연비와 성능을 향상시키는 차세대 엔진 기술이다. 흡기캠에 의해 밸브가 직접 작동되는 일반 엔진과 달리 VVA 엔진은 흡기캠, VVA기구, 모터, 제어기 등에 의해 밸브 작동 모드가 정밀하게 제어되므로, 엔진에서 발생되는 손실을 줄여 연비가 크게 향상되고 엔진의 최고 성능이 향상된다. 또한 VVA 엔진을 장착한 차량은 차량의 발진 응답성이 향상되고, 배기가스 배출량을 줄일 수 있어 친환경 저연비 차량을 실현하는데 핵심 차량부품기술이다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 VVA 기구의 적용을 위한 DC모터 및 제어기를 개발하였다.

Electrical characteristics of two types of 20 GHz Push-Push GaAs MESFET dielectric resonator oscillators having Wilkinson and T-junction power combiners for the output stage have been investigated and compared. So we have explained that the output power and phase noise properties of the Push-push FET DRO are depending on return loss and isolation characteristics of power combiner at the fundamental and the second harmonic frequencies. A Push-push oscillator for suppressing the fundamental frequency of 10 GHz and enhancing the second harmonic of 20 GHz has been designed and fabricated in microstrip configuration on 20 mil thick RT-Duroid($\varepsilon$$_{r}$ = 2.52) Teflon substrate. Return loss and isolation characteristics of T-junction and Wilkinson have been measured at the fundamental frequency of 10.2 GHz and the second harmonic frequency of 20.5 GHz. At the fundamental frequency, -12 dB return loss and -3.7 dB isolation have been measured for the T-junction power combiner, and -14 dB return loss and -11 dB isolation fur the Wilkinson power combiner. At the second harmonic frequency, -10 dB return loss and -7.5 dB isolation have been obtained for the T-junction power combiner, and -23 dB return loss and -22 dB isolation for the Wilkinson power combiner. As a result, we have confirmed that the oscillator based on the Wilkinson power combiner with better retrun loss and isolation characteristics produces more output power and better phase noise characteristics..

We performed injection-locking by two independent semiconductor lasers and investigated the spectral modes of the injection-locked laser From the observation of the saturated absorption spectrum in the $^{85}Rb$ D1 transition line, we have confirmed that the frequency of the injection-locked slave laser is synchronized by the frequency of the master laser, and the slave laser has a narrow linewidth after injection-locking. According to the intensity injected into the slave laser, we measured the variation of the injection-locking range and the mode of the injection-locked slave laser by using the confocal Fabry-Ferret interferometer. In the case of the incomplete injection-locking, we observed the competition between the free running mode of the slave laser and the mode of the master laser and analyzed the modes of the injection-locked slave laser.

We demonstrate a beat frequency-Switchable dual-mode external cavity laser hybrid integrated on planar lightwave circuit with an FP-LD and a sampled grating as external reflector. The dual-mode external avity laser was able to switch its beat frequency from 132GHz to 406GHz by changing LD current from 50mA to 55mA.

We report on the development of a passively mode-locked near-infrared femtosecond laser with Cr:YAG crystal that operates near room temperature. The laser wavelength could easily be tuned by using only the internal prism pair over 110 nm from 1400 nm to 1510 nm in cw and over about 30 nm in mode-locked operation, respectively Maximum cw output powers of 810 mW were obtained with $1.5 \%$ output coupler for absorbed pump powers of 7.6 W. For compensation of the internal group velocity dispersion, an IR graded prism pair was used. The Cr:YAG laser delivered nearly Fourier-transform limited pulses with a pulse duration as short as 64 fs at 100 MHz repetition rate. In the mode-locked regime, the laser was operating at 1510 nm with a spectral bandwidth of 44 nm. In order to avoid unstable mode-locking and power instabilities, self-built tubes were inserted into the beam path in the resonator and purged with N2 gas. Finally, output powers of the Cr:YAG laser were optimized to 250 mW fer long time stable mode-locked operation.

We report high-power continuous-wave operation of a Yb-doped fiber laser at 1070 nm, pumped by high-power laser diodes at 976 nm. Based on theoretical calculation of the stimulated Raman scattering and temperature distribution in the fiber, we construct a bidirectionally pumped Yb-fiberlaser system incorporating a pair of fiber Bragg gratings and a cladding light stripper. The fiber laser yields 3.0 kW of continuous-wave output at 1070 nm in a diffraction-limited beam with M² ≈ 1.26 for 4.1 kW of incident pump power, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 81.5%. The prospects for further power scaling are discussed.

The fabricated oscillator showed the output power of 4 dBm, the 1'st harmonic suppression of -20 dBc, the 3rd harmonic suppression of -34 dBc, a SSB phase noise of -109 dBc / Hz at 1MHz offset frequency from the carrier was achieved and 1.4 percents efficiency at 23 GHz. The experimental outputs were in good results with the theoretical and simulated results.

A single mode, 100-mW diode laser was injection-locked by the master laser which was spectrally narrowed with Littman-type grating feedback. In the incomplete-injection-locking, we observed that two frequencies were simultaneously generated from the slave laser. The power ratio and frequency shift of two frequency components were proportional to the square of injected laser intensity. When the ratio of the injection intensity to the slave laser intensity was about $10^{-3}$, the injection-locking bandwidth was to be about 1.4 GHz. The bandwidth proportionally increased to the square root of the injection intensity, which was in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. The Iinewidth of the locked-laser was about 2.5 MHz, which was five times as narrow as that of free-running operation. ation.

We investigated the spectral characteristics for temperature and driving current change in visible laser diode. As a result of spectrum analysis, the ratio of frequency change for temperature and driving current change were about $33 GHz/^{\circ}C$, 6.6 GHz/mA in the region which was not mode hopping range. Compared to the sharp mode hopping in the near IR single mode AlGaAs lasers, the visible laser diode showed relatively broad multimode operation in the mode hopping region. We performed the experiment of injection-locking characteristics analysis for visible laser diode. Locking half bandwidth(LHBW) was measured 0~5.0 GHz for $0~25\muW$ input power and it was dependent on the input power. Also, LHBW for polarization angle was dependent on the difference of polarization angle between master laser and slave laser. The phase change of injection-locked output beam of the slave laser diode as a function of the drive current was measured in the interferometer which was composed of master laser and slave laser. The ratio of phase change with the slope of 5.0~1.3 rad/mA was obtained within injection-locking range for the change of $2~25\muW$ input power. power.
