We have implemented a planar integrated optics for the fractional Fourier transform (FRT) which has recently been developed as a generalized form of the conventional Fourier transform. FRT optical systems provide versatile tools for analyzing signals and designing hardwares, but require high accuracy and stability in the arrangement of optical components because of their shift-variant characteristic. The planar optical FRT setup composed of free-space optical components integrated on a single glass block makes the FRT of 2-dimensional(2-D) input patterns through the 3-D glass-space. Therefore, taking advantage of the compactness, easy alignment and thermal/mechanical stability, the planar optics can provide a useful approach to realizing an optical fractional correlation system in a practical way. In the experiment, we have obtained accurate FRT results by using the planar integrated optics with 4 different fractional orders of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0.

In this paper, a single balanced diode Mixer for the homodyne FMCW radar to detect distance and velocity of a vehicle target is designed and implemented using a microstrip line and two schottky barrier beam lead diodes. This mixer is optimally designed to have less a conversion loss within the 100 MHz bandwidth with a little LO injection power and a higher LO isolation as soon as possible through the embedded electrical length of microsrtrip line placed between the coupler and diode matching, considering together LO matching condition. The measured results show 6 dB of conversion loss, 23 dB LO/RF isolation and 3 dBm of input 1l dB, respectively.

We proposed a three-dimensional holographic display technique without twin image noise by converting a complex hologram to an off-axis hologram. To implement the proposed technique we record the complex hologram of a three dimensional object that is composed of two slides located with different depth locations. We added spatial carrier to the complex hologram and after that, extract the real part of the spatial-carrier-added hologram. This converts the complex hologram to an off-axis hologram. We also reconstruct the off-axis hologram using a spatial light modulator for three dimensional display.

실리콘기반의 광전변환 소자는 소자공정의 편의성, 소자 신뢰성, 화학적 안정성, 그리고 저가경쟁력 등의 이점 때문에 수 십 년간 널리 연구되어 왔다. 그러나, 실리콘 재료의 경우 높은 굴절률로 인해 표면에서 높은 광 반사도를 가지고 있다. 일반적으로, 태양전지의 광전변환 효율은 빛이 서로 다른 유전율을 가진 계를 통과할 때 발생하는 계면반사로 인한 물리적인 한계를 가진다. Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)는 발광 다이오드, 태양전지, 그리고 광 검출기 등의 광소자에 적용하기 위해 수 년간 투명전도 산화막 재료로서 연구되어 왔다. ITO의 뛰어난 광학적, 전기적 특성은 높은 투과도와 낮은 전기 전도도를 요구하는 소자 응용에 대해 유망한 후보로 거듭나게 했다. 게다가, ITO의 굴절률은 대략 2정도이다. 그 결과, ITO는 반도체 기반 태양전지의 무반사 코팅 소재로서도 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구는 전자빔 증착법으로 경사입사 증착을 하여 실리콘 기반 태양전지에 증착될 ITO 박막의 굴절률을 조절한다. 여기서, 실리콘의 굴절률은 대략 3.5정도이다. 그러므로, 더 나은 광학적 특성을 가지기 위해 다층으로 올려진 ITO 박막이 점진적인 굴절률 변화를 가지는 것을 필요로 한다. 점진적 굴절률 변화를 가진 무반사 박막이 실리콘 태양전지의 특성에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 광전변환 효율을 측정하였다. 증착된 박막의 굴절률과 표면형상은 각각 타원편광분석과 Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)을 통해 분석되었다. 또한, 소자의 단면형상은 Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)으로 측정되었다.

A new smart antenna receiver which incorporates the spatial fourier Transform and the maximal ratio combining(MRC) is proposed. By adapting the spatial fourier transform, the proposed method could separate the received signal into several spatial frequency components which correspond to the arrival angles of signal components, which means the beam focusing. By using the MRC, the proposed method could achieve the maximum signal to noise ratio for the signal of interest. The proposed algorithm is integrated to the CDMA reverse link receiver and simulations are performed to confirm the performance. As a result, the beam focusing effect is confirmed and the performance gain with the proposed algorithm is comparable to ordinary smart antenna receivers. The simulations are performed over the additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) environments and the results are obtained for the beam focusing capability according to the angle of arrival of a signal and the bit error performance improvement according to the number of combining branches in the MRC.

Optical images on the porous silicon exhibiting Febry-Perot fringe pattern have been prepared by using an electrochemical etching of p-type silicon wafer (boron-doped,<100> orientation, resistivity $0.8{\sim}1.2m{\Omega}-cm$) and beam projector. The images remained in the substrate displayed an optical images correlating to the optical pattern and could be useful for optical data storage. A decrease in the effective optical thickness of the Febry-Perot layers was observed, indicative of a change in refractive index induced by exposing of porous silicon to the white light. This provides the ability to fabricate complex optical encoding in the surface of silicon.

Offset-fed dish antennas are considered. Offset-fed dish antennas are widely used for DBS reception, the problem of offset-fed dish antenna has, however, received little attention because of its complicated and asymmetric geometry. A Fourier-transform technique and Physical Optics are employed to express the fields radiated from offset-fed reflector and feed horn aperture. The simultaneous equations are solved to obtain a solution in a fast convergent series, thus facilitating the numerical computation. For given parameters such as diameter of reflector, focal length, offset height of reflector center, exact solutions are derived. Since offset-fed dish antenna has an application as multi-beam antenna using multiple feed, a brief feasablity of dual beam antenna for Korea-SAT (116$^{\circ}$E, EIRP 59 dBW) and Orion-SAT (139$^{\circ}$E, EIRP 54 dBW) is given in Conclusion.

The spatial flatness of dye jet depending on the Reynold's number has analyzed by using a Michelson interferometer. When the Reynold's number of dye jet was 600, the flatness of the flow was the best. Under this condition, the dye laser with Littman-type configuration has been operated in a single longitudinal mode at the pumping energy of 0.5~1.0 mJ/pulse. The conversion efficiency and beam divergence were 4.7% and 3 mrad, respectively. ively.

In this paper we applied a transmit beamforming technique to the underwater acoustic communication system for high rate data transmission. A prototype transmit system was designed and implemented with the general purpose DSP processor and multiple digital-to-analog converters. The performances of the implemented system were evaluated by the experiment in water tank. In order to simplify the procedure the channel coding and equalizer were omitted. And the simplest OOK (On-Off Keying) technique in digital communication methods was applied. The experimental result shows that the transmission data rate is higher about 3 times in the case of 5 hydrophone transmitting may than 1 hydrophone transmitter at bit error rate 10/sup -2/. We verified that the maximum data rate was 400 bps for speech signal transmission in water tank.

We present experimental observations of two-photon spatial bunching effect in a two-photon interference experiment by using the photon pairs produced by parametric down-conversion and the Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer. We show that this pairing behavior is observed by coincidence detection, but gives a negligible effect for a single count.
