Fiber-Bragg-grating external cavity laser(FGL) modules were fabricated and experimentally analyzed. Proposed as a cost-effective solution for optical sources in the WDM-PON access network, FGL modules were packaged to TO-CAN type. We obtained a low threshold current of 13 mA, and an optical output power of 3.6 mW with a bias current of 60 mA at $25^{\circ}C$. The lasing wavelength dependencies on current and temperature were as small as 5.2 pm/mA and 30 pm/$^{\circ}C$, respectively. These change rates of the wavelength with the temperature and current are smaller than those of the DFB laser. Single-mode oscillations with the side-mode suppression ratio(SMSR) over 30 dB are maintained above the threshold current level. The FGL modules can be directly modulated at 155 Mbps, PRBS(2$^{23}$ -1) NRZ signal. Through the BER plots, we did not see the significant degradations before and after the transmission over 20km of the SMF at 155 Mb/s.

In this paper, photoacoustic image processing system was constructed by using 2W CW $CO_{2}$ laser of $10.6{\mu}m$ wavelength and PZT 5A acoustic transducer. Stainless steel of 5mm thickness was used as a sample in experiment. Three line cracks of $50{\mu}m$ in each width and depth were made by using plasma on the surface of the sample. Also, each gap among their lines was $200{\mu}m$ and $300{\mu}m$ in width. In the scan range of $2.2mm\times2mm$ including surface defects, a good image of $50{\mu}m$ resolution had been shown when modulation frequency of CW laser was 100Hz.

The performance of Manchester-coded DPSK optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems using a stochastic approach is evaluated taking into account the shot noise and the four-wave mixing (FWM) caused by fiber nonlinearities. The result of Manchester-coded system is compared to conventional non-return-to-zero (NRZ) systems for DPSK modulation formats. Further, the dynamic range, defined as the ratio of the maximum input power (limited by the FWM), to the minimum input power (limited by receiver sensitivity), is evaluated. For $1.55.{\mu}m$16 channel WDM systems, the dynamic range of DPSK Manchester coded systems shows a 2.1 dB improvement with respect to the NRZ. This result holds true for both dispersion-shifted fiber and conventional fiber; it has been obtained for 10 GHz channel spacing, 1 Gbps/channel bit rate.t rate.

In this paper, bit error rate (BER) characteristics, sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing that consisted of 1,200 km WDM systems with MSSI method. It is conformed that the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are gradually degraded as amplifier spacings are gradually expanded, but those are not largely affected by modulation format. The sensitivity of RZ transmission system is smaller than that of NRZ transmission system, but minimum allowable launching power of NRZ transmission system is smaller than that of RZ transmission system. And, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is less than 50 km, because the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are less affected by fiber dispersion, channel wavelength and pump light power.

Recent advances in room-temperature, visible and near-IR diode laser sources for telecommunication, optical data storage applications are enabling combustion diagnostics system based on diode laser absorption spectroscopy. In contrast to some traditional sampling-based gas-sensing instruments, tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy system is advantageous because of their non-invasive nature, high sensitivity, fast response time and real-time measurement capability. So, combined with fiber-optics and high sensitive detection strategies, compact and portable sensor system arc now appearing for a variety of applications. The objective of this research is to take advantage of distributed feed-back diode laser and measure the $CO_{2}$ concentration (by using direct absorption and wavelength modulation spectroscopy methods). In addition to survey spectra of $CO_{2}$ bands and spectroscopic parameters between 1565 and 1579 run were computed at temperatures between 296 and 1200 K (by using HITRAN 2000 database). It experimentally found out that the features of direct absorption and wavelength modulation spectroscopy methods.

We proposed polymer based vertical asymmetric optical coupler. And we optimized the proposed device by coupling characteristic analysis In 1.33um wavelength, TE mode, we obtained very short coupling length(L=277.6um), high coupling efficiency(94%). The merits of proposed device are low propagation loss due to very short full device, low production cost and time, and high integrated fabrication. We will use this to fabricate optical switch, modulator and tunable WDM devices, etc.

Nonlinear interaction between directional wave components is theoretically analyzed in deep water. The perturbed solution for an irregular wave is derived accurate up to the third order of the wave steepness and it is shown that the wave characteristics are modulated due to the nonlinear interaction. The convergence rate of the perturbed solution depends on not only wave steepness but also wavelength ratio between wave components. The long-wave component of the perturbed solution converges rapidly. while the short-wave solution converges slowly or diverges. The short wave properties in a broad-band wave spectrum cannot accurately be obtained by the conventional wave-mode method because it fails to properly describe the modulation of short-wave frequency caused by the nonlinear interaction with much longer wave.

The energy transfer between two incident beams in a photorefractive Cu-doped(0.04 wt. %) ${(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})}_{0.2}{(Sr_{0.61}Ba_{0.39})}_{0.9}Nb_2O_6$ crystal is investigated at 632.8 nm laser wavelength. In addition, the coherent two-wave coupling properties of a photoinduced refractive-index grating in the presence of amplitude modulation on the signal beam or reference beam are also experimentally investigated. Some preliminary exprimental results are presented for use as a dynamic photorefracitive combiners and pulse shaping elements in coherent optical communication systems and in optical signal processing.

An experimental study of the flame response in a turbulent premixed combustor has been conducted in order to investigate mechanisms for combustion instabilities in a lean premixed gas turbine combustor. A lab-scale combustor and mixing section system were fabricated to measure the flame transfer function. Measurements are made of the velocity fluctuation in the nozzle using hot wire anemometry and of the heat release fluctuation in the combustor using chemiluminescence emission. The results show that the flame transfer functions are greatly dependent on the modulation frequency as well as operating conditions such as equivalence ratio. Flame dynamics can be generalized as a function of Strouhal number which is a ratio of flame length to modulation wave length.

This paper presents a theoretical study of transmission performance for optical duobinary transmitters employed a Mach-Zehnder modulator. Especially, we have investigated the performance of the various transmitters for transmitting 25Gbps optical duobinary signals at a wavelength of 1550nm without any dispersion compensation methods over single mode fiber. Due to the characteristics of generating their duobinary signals, each transmitter has a distinct optical power spectrum and an eye opening shape. By these, there was a difference in the dispersion tolerance. We could find a suitable transmitter for 25Gbps transmission considering the structure complexities and the restricted conditions with the simulation results.
