일반적으로 고출력 반도체 레이저 다이오드는 발진 파장 및 광출력에 따라 다양한 분야에 응용되고 있으며, 특히 발진파장이 808 nm 대역인 고출력 레이저 다이오드의 경우 재료가공, 펌핌용 광원, 의료 분야 등 다양한 응용분야를 가진 광원 중의 하나라고 할 수 있다. 808 nm 대역의 레이저 다이오드 제작에는 현재 InGaAsP/InGaP/GaAs 및 InGaAlAs/GaAs 양자우물을 이용하여 제작되고 있으나 양자우물과 이를 둘러싸는 장벽물질간의 band-offset이 적어 효율적인 고출력 레이저 다이오드의 제작에 다소 어려움이 있기 때문에 강한 캐리어 구속 효과를 지니는 양자점 혹은 양자대쉬 구조를 사용하는 것이 고출력 레이저 다이오드를 제작할 수 있는 한 방법이다. 실험에 사용된 InP/InGaP 양자구조는 Riber사의 compact21 MBE 장치를 사용하여 성장하였으며 GaAs기판을 620-630도에서 가열하여 표면의 산화층을 제거하고 580도에서 약 100 nm 두께의 GaAs 버퍼층 및 50 nm 두께의 InGaP층을 성장하였다. 양자 구조는 MEE (migration enhanced epitaxy) 방식으로 성장되었는데, 이는 InP/InGaP 의 lattice mismatch율이 작아 양자 구조 형성이 어렵기 때문에 InP/InGaP 양자 구조 성장에 적합하다고 생각하였으며, Indium 2초, growth interuption time 10초, phosphorous 2초 그리고 growth interuption time 10초를 하나의 시퀀스로 보고, 그 시퀀스를 반복하여 양자 구조를 성장하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 P 소스는 Riber사의 KPC-250 P-valved cracker모델을 사용하였으며 InP의 성장률은 0.985${\AA}/s$이다. InP/InGaP 양자구조 성장 중에, 성장 온도, 시퀀스 수의 변화 등 다양한 조건을 변화 시켜 샘플을 성장시켰고, 양자 구조 성장을 확인하기 위하여 AFM 및 SEM을 통해 구조적 분석을 하였으며 PL 측정을 통해 광학적 분석을 진행하였다.

We demonstrate a laser power meter calibration system based on 12-diode laser sources coupled to single-mode fibres in a wavelength range from 400 to 1,600 nm. In our system, three laser power controllers ensure that the output power uncertainty of all laser sources is less than 0.1% (k=2). In addition, all laser beams are adjusted to have similar beam sizes of approximately 2 mm (1/e²-width) at the measurement position to minimise unmeasured laser power on a detector. As a reference detector, we use an integrating sphere combined with silicon and indium gallium arsenide photodiodes to minimise the non-uniformity and non-linearity of responsivity. The minimum uncertainty of the calibration system is estimated to be 1.1% (k=2) for most laser wavelengths.

펄스형 $CO_2$레이저는 적외선 영역인 10.6 $mu extrm{m}$ 파장의 매우 안정된 고출력 펄스를 방출시킬 수 있으므로 산업용, 군사용, 의료용, 각종 물리.화학의 기초 연구용 등의 광범위한 응용 분야에서 각광을 받고 있다. 특히 금속의 정밀절단, 심용접에서는 수 십 Hz로부터 수 kHz의 펄스 출력이 필요하다. 펄스방식은 Normal Pulse와 Super Pulse로 크게 나눌 수 있다. Normal Pulse의 경우에는 Pulse의 파고치가 연속파의 파고치와 동일하기 때문에 펄스시의 평균 출력은 연속파의 경우보다 낮다. Super Pulse의 경우에는 Pulse 파고치를 연속파의 파고치보다 훨씬 높게 할 수 있으므로 평균 출력은 낮지만 첨두 출력이 높아서 유리 등 세라믹 재료의 가공에 널리 사용된다$^{(1)}$ (중략)

In this paper, we have experimentally demonstrated a 2-kW-class spectrally-beam-combined laser with high beam quality, using narrow-linewidth ytterbium-doped polarization-maintaining fiber amplifiers. Five fiber amplifiers with different center wavelengths were implemented for the spectrally-beam-combined laser. The center wavelengths of the five amplifiers were 1062, 1063, 1064, 1065, and 1066 nm, respectively. A phase-modulated laser diode was used as a seed source for each amplifier. The seed sources were modulated by filtered pseudorandom-bit-sequence (PRBS) signals 5 GHz in linewidth. The polarization-maintaining large-mode-area fiber with a core size of 30 ㎛ was used as a delivery fiber to mitigate the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) effect. The laser beams from five amplifiers were spectrally combined by a multilayer dielectric diffraction grating. The maximum output power and beam quality M² of the combined laser were measured to be 2.3 kW and 1.74, respectively.

Fiber-optic strain sensors based on Bragg reflection gratings produce the change of reflection spectrum when an external stress is applied on the sensor. To measure the Bragg reflection wavelength in high speed, an arrayed waveguide grating device is incorporated in this work. By monitoring the output power from each channel of the AWG, the peak wavelength corresponding to the applied strain could be obtained. To enhance the accuracy of the AWG wavelength interrogation system, a chirped fiber Bragg grating with a 3-dB bandwith of 5.4 nm is utilized. The high-speed response of the proposed system is demonstrated by measuring a fast varying strain produced by the damped oscillation of a cantilever. An oscillation frequency of 17.8 Hz and a damping time constant of 0.96 second are obtained in this measurement.

In this paper, we analyzed tuning characteristics of the widely tunable SGDFB laser diode integrated with SGDBR. The improved time-domain model is used to analyse the laser diode. From the numerical analysis, the length of phase control region in the SGDFB section influences on the output power and the tuning range. Also, it was confirmed that the tuning range is affected by the length of the laser diode, the residual reflectivity at the facet, and the position of the facet.

In this paper, we report Mach Zehnder Interleaver of optical fiber type is fabricated by the fabrication system only for interfermeter design, and it is used $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. The optical fiber is very sensitive in the thermal variation around. Thus, When fabrication the prototype, it is applied a technique to compensate the optical thermal effect because the center wavelength at the output is shifted according to the thermal variation around. it can he done by applying a substrate with high thermal expansion coefficient as well as an adjusting the position between two optical fiber couplers. Consequently, the output wavelength is shifted within 0.05 nm when the surrounding temperature varies until $60^{\circ}C$.

This paper studies the high frequency PWM (pulse width modulation) driving technique to increase an optical efficiency and to prevent an optical color quenching of blue laser for head up display on vehicles using digital micro mirror device (DMD) panel and yellow phosphor wheel. The proposed approach adaptively drives the current pulse width modulated signals of high optical power of blue laser to increase the lifetime and to decrease the stem temperature of laser. This method stabilizes the temperature of laser according to the driving environment and the forward current capacity. By the proposed method, the brightness of blue laser is improved by about 37% compared to the continuous waveform current driving method.

The use of medical devices is increasing due to the development of medical technology. Among medical devices, it is often used in the human body for graft and treatment. Therefore, in medical institutions, various sterilization methods according to the type and material of medical devices are applied to prevent infection. Hydrophosphite (HA) materials are the most popular in bone grafts. We would like to present a sterilization method using Q-switch Nd:YAG laser with high output energy among non-ionizing radiation suitable for small medical devices. In this study, sterilization power was most ideally shown at UV wavelengths of 1.5 W, 266 nm, and 10 pulses. Different wavelength bands; infrared and visible light; showed passive sterilization, and ultraviolet A and C showed differences in sterilization according to the pulse. In laser sterilization were differences that found according to the wavelength bands and pulses.
