전기-광 효과를 이용한 광변조기, 스위치 등의 소자 구현을 위해 고품질의 Ti:LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로 제작은 필수적이다. LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로는 양자교환(APE) 및 Ti 확산 법으로 제조할 수 있으며 전자의 경우 ne 는 증가, no는 감소되는 경향이 있어 편광도 파로의 제작에 용의하며 후자의 경우 ne 와 no 모두 증가하는 도파로 특성을 갖는다. 이러한, 도파로 소자의 특성 향상을 위해서는 Li out-diffusion 이 억제된 손실이 적은 도파로 제작이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 Ti 내부 확산법을 이용한 LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로를 확산분위기를 조건으로 하여 제작하였으며, 온도에 따른 각 이온의 반응 메커니즘에 관하여 관찰하였다.

In this paper, we have modeled and fabricated $1{\times}5$ equal power splitter for 1.55${\mu}m$ wavelength using finite-difference beam propagation method and $Ag^+-Na^+$ ion-exchanged method in BK7 glass, respectively. The power splitting ratio could be controlled by changing the center waveguide gap and the inner Y-branch angle. As a result, the power splitting ratio shows 0.46dB when the waveguide width, the inner Y-branch angle and the center waveguide gap are 4.5${\mu}m$, 0.3 degree and 575${\mu}m$, respectively.

In this paper, we performed theoretical computer calculation for ion-exchange embedded channel waveguide using Field Shadow Method. Using the parameters of ${\Delta}n=0.09$, 0.009, $w=8{\mu}m$. d=8.854, $8.189{\mu}m$ we decided the waveguide characteristics. The dispersion curves showed the optimal fabrication conditions of the waveguides. We observed each of the 3-D field distributions in the various waveguides.

A $1.31/1.55\mu\textrm{m}$ coarse WDM opncal dIrectional coupler that conslsls of two idenlical straight channel waveguides in BK7 glass has been fabricated. The separatIOn between two channel waveguides is $8\mu\textrm{m}$ and the wavegu.ide width is $4\mu\textrm{m}$ . Especlally, we assumed that the index profile is Gaussian function and complementary error function in the width direction and depth direction, respectrvely. This directional coupler operating at $1.31/1.55\mu\textrm{m}$ with crosstalk of 18dB is demonstrated and has the 16 mm long length with 12.6 mm coupling region.region.

An erbium-ytterbium co-doped phosphate glass waveguide amplifier, fabricated by two-step ion-exchange, is presented. The performance of the amplifiers are investigated in viewpoints of net gain, pump power, and noise figure. The waveguide has propagation loss of 0.7 dB/cm Including insertion loss at 1.304 $\mu\textrm{m}$. At a signal wavelength of 1.534 $\mu\textrm{m}$, a high net gain of 12.8 dB and low noise figure of less than 3.9 dB are archived in a 4 cm long waveguide when injected by 140 ㎽ of LD pump at 0.98$\mu\textrm{m}$ in single pass configuration.

In this paper, we investigated the optical coupling characteristics for $K^{+}$ ion-exchanged diffused channel waveguide by using coupled-mode equations. In this case, the optical-power-dividing was observed at the waveguide-type optical coupler with 3[$\mu\textrm{m}$] line-width and, 6[$\mu\textrm{m}$] separation between channel waveguides in which interaction lengths were 1 and 3[mm], respectively, On the basis of that we deformed simulation for $Ag^{+}$ ion-exchanged diffused channel waveguide. As a result of simulation, the optical-power-dividing was shown at the waveguide-type optical coupler wish 3[$\mu\textrm{m}$] line-width, 6[$\mu\textrm{m}$] separation between channel waveguides and 0.11[mm] interaction length.

광통신 시스템이 널리 사용되기 시작한 이래 광섬유를 통한 원거리 전송에 따른 신호의 감쇠와 왜곡 등의 문제점이 발생하게 되고 이를 보상하기 위해 중계기(Repeater)의 사용이 요구된다. 이러한 중계기에는 광전변환, 전기신호처리 및 전광변환 등의 번거러움이 따른다. 이와 같은 번거로움 때문에 광통신 시스템 설계자들은 광전, 전광 변환 없이 바로 광신호 자체의 세기를 증폭하는 기술을 필요로 하게 되었다. 특히 최근 들어 파장분할다중(Wavelength Division Multiplexing)광 네트웍 및 광통신의 고속화가 요구됨에 따라 중계기를 광증폭기로 대치하는 추세는 더욱 가속화되고 있다.

We fabricated Ag ion exchange glass waveguide. Generally, ion-exchange glass waveguide. are suitable for passive integrated optical components such as directional and star couplers. Its advantages include low loss, ease of fabrication, and low material cost. So, we faricated Ag ion-exchange glass waveguides in AgNO$_3$ melt solution from 2 mole %. And we used Sodalime glass as a substrate in the fabrication process. As the results, we observed multivalent ion-exchange in a typical sodalime glass. Diffusion coefficient and depth are predicted by actual experimental data of Stewart. The exchange rate in silver-ion-exchanged waveguides are compared to the exchange time of waveguide fabrication.
