The wavelength variation of a scanned fiber laser is analyzed using quadrature sampling technique. By time delayed sampling of a phase modulated Mach-Zender interferometer, the wavelength information can be precisely determined regardless of the nonlinearity in the Fabry-Perot wavelength filter which scanned the fiber laser. A wavelength readout resolution of ～20 pm was obtained at 2 KHz M-Z modulation frequency, and it was shown that the resolution could be improved in case of using an electro-optic phase modulator.

Integrated cavity output spectroscopy(ICOS) is a simple, non-intrusive absorption measurement technique that can detect and quantify trace-level gas species. The spectral absorbance of a gas is quantified from the integrated optical output of the modulated high-finesse cavity containing the sample which is irradiated by a wavelength-swept laser source. We constructed an experimental setup by using a tunable single mode external cavity diode laser operating at the wavelength near 765 nm and a Fabry-Perot cavity with length modulation achieved by a piezoelectric transducer where one of the cavity mirrors sat on. In the experiment performed on minute oxygen gas at the wave-length near 764.5nm, we demonstrated the minimum detectable absorption of $8.45\times10^{-8}cm^{-1}$.

We have experimentally demonstrated the transmission performance of a feedforward optical transmitter using an external light injection technique. The feedforward compensation method shows 31 dB intermodulation distortion suppression and 2.2 dB noise reduction. A high side-mode suppression ratio exceeding 35 dB of the wavelength of the locked Fabry-Perot laser diode was obtained over 12 nm ranges. The suppression characteristics of the intermodulation distortion for various wavelength differences and transmission lengths were measured and analyzed as the evaluation criteria for the system performance in WDM/SCM based radio-over-fiber systems.

We propose a multiplexed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor network for vessel monitoring to measure the variation of strain and temperature by environmental perturbation based on code division multiple access (CDMA). The center wavelength of FBG was linearly changed by environmental perturbation such as strain and temperature variation so that we could be monitoring the state of sensors. A RSOA was used as optical broadband source and which was modulated by using pseudo random binary sequence (PRBS) signal. The correlation peak of reflected signal from sensor networks was measured. In this paper, we used the sliding correlation techniques for high speed response and dynamic rage of sensors.

We investigated the optimum pump light power compensating distorted WDM signal due to both chromatic dispersion and self phase modulation (SPM). The considered system is $3{\times}40$ Gbps intensity modulation direct detection (IM/DD) WDM transmission system with path-averaged intensity approximation (PAIA) mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) as compensation method. This system have highly nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber (HNL-DSF) as nonlinear medium of optical phase conjugator (OPC) in the mid-way of total transmission line. We confirmed that HNL-DSF is an useful nonlinear medium in OPC for wideband WDM transmission, and the excellent compensation is obtained when the pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC was selected to equalize the conjugated light power into the second half fiber section with the input WDM signal light power depending on total transmission length. By this approach, it is verified the possibility to realize a long-haul high capacities WDM system by using PAIA MSSI compensation method, which have HNL-DSF OPC with optimal pump light power depending on transmission length.

Diode laser absorption sensors are advantageous because they may provide fast, sensitive, absolute, and selective measurements of species concentration. These systems are very attractive for practical applications owing to its compactness, reasonable cost, robustness, and ease of use. In addition, diode lasers we fiber-optic compatible and thus enable simultaneous measurements of multiple species along a line-of-sight. Recent advances of room-temperature, near-IR and visible diode laser sources for telecommunication, optical data storage applications make it possible to be applied for combustion diagnostics based on diode laser absorption spectroscopy. Therefore, combined with fiber-optics and high sensitive detection strategies, compact and portable sensor systems are now appearing for variety of applications. The objectives of this research are to develop new gas sensing system and to verify feasibility of this system. Wavelength modulation spectroscopy has been demonstrated in these experiments and has a bright prospect to this diode laser system.

We propose an optical gas sensor, which consists of a hollow core photonic bandgap fiber (HC-PBGF) and fiber Bragg grating (FBG), for the detection of acetylene gas. The gas detection scheme is uniquely characterized by modulating the Bragg wavelength of the fiber Bragg grating around a selected absorption line of gas filled in the photonic bandgap fiber. In the measurement, a 2m-long HC-PBGF and FBG with a Bragg wavelength of 1539.02nm were used. The FBG was modulated at 2Hz. We demonstrated that the optical fiber gas sensor was able to selectively measure the 2.5% and 5% of acetylene gases.

This work forcus on the development of gas sensor that measure the concentrations of exhaust gas using diode laser. Each diode laser for exhaust gas measurement is set to work at near-IR using both DA and WMS methods. Also use of fiber-coupled optical elements makes such a sensor rugged and easy to align. On-line data acquisition and processing can be performed with a PC running LabVIEW software, and absorption signals are measured simultaneously by multiplexing method. Finally, It were experimentally compared WMS (Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy) with DA (Direct Absorption) for the accuracy.

We implemented a 10 Gb/s 4-channel vertical cavity surface emission lasers (VCSEL) driver array in a $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS process technology. To enhance high current resolution, power dissipation, and chip space area, digital APC/AMC with time division sensing technology is primarily adopted. The measured -3 dB frequency bandwidth is 9.2 GHz; the small signal gain is 10.5 dB; the current resolution is 0.01 mA/step, suitable for the wavelength operation up to 10 Gb/s over a wide temperature range. The proposed APC and AMC demonstrate 5 to 20 mA of bias current control and 5 to 20 mA of modulation current control. The whole chip consumes 371 mW of low power under the maximum modulation and bias currents. The active chip size is $3.71{\times}1.3mm^2$.
