저출력 다이오드 여기 레이저에서는 공간모드 특성을 좋게하고 여기 효율을 올리기 위하여 단면 여기 방식을 주로 사용한다. 특히 레이저 다이오드 (LD)로 여기하는 단일모드 녹색광 레이저는 홀로그램, 간섭계, 측정기 등의 응용분야에서 수요가 날로 증가하고 있다. 단일모드 녹색광 레이저의 발진방법으로는 여러 가지가 고안되어 왔다. 먼저 공진기 내부에 얇은 판을 브루스터 (Brewster) 각으로 두어서 편광시키고 이것을 복굴절특성을 가진 Nd：YVO$_4$ 결정과 결합시켜 복굴절 필터 기능을 하게 하는 방법이 있다. (중략)

주파수 안정화 레이저 광원은 10-6 이상의 상대 불확도가 필요한 간섭계에서 널리 쓰이고 있으며 특히 변위 측정 시스템에서는 반드시 쓰이고 있다. 상용화된 많은 변위 측정 시스템은 신호 대 잡음비가 우수하고 광학계의 정렬이 더 쉬운 헤테로다인 방식을 채택하고 있으며 이를 위해서 서로 수직 선형 편광인 다른 주파수의 광을 내보내는 광원이 필요하다. 현재 헤테로다인 변위 측정 시스템에 쓰이고 있는 광원은 이중 주파수 광원을 만드는 방식에 따라 지만 효과(Zeeman effect)를 이용한 지만 레이저(HP사)와 음향-광 변조기(Acousto-optic modulator)를 이용한 이중 주파수 레이저(Zy해사)가 있다.

In this paper, we investigate the optical and structural properties of linear and circular polarization-discriminatory inverters. Circular polarization-discriminatory handedness inverter is realized as a combination of half-wave plate and Bragg reflector and that of linear polarization in verter is realized as a combination of quarter-wave plate, Bragg reflector and quarter-wave plate.

여기 파워는 고체 레이저 매질 내부에 열을 발생시킨다. 매질 내부에서 발생한 열은 매질 표면을 따라 냉각이 진행되어 매질 내부에서는 불균일한 온도분포가 발생하게 된다. 레이저 매질의 굴절율은 온도에 따라 변하기 때문에 열복굴절 현상과 열렌즈 현상이 일어나 레이저 출력의 손실, 빔질의 저하를 유발하고 열적 스트레스는 매질의 손상 및 모드 동기된 극초단 펄스가 넓어지는 등의 문제를 초래한다. 선형 편광 광선을 이용하는 고체 레이저에서 열복굴절에 의해 레이저 출력이 약 30 %까지 감소하므로 레이저 공진기를 구성하는데 있어서 정량적인 열영향의 해석이 필요하다. 열복굴절에 의해 발생한 손실량은 다음과 같이 표현할 수 있다.

The classical electromagnetically-induced transparency(EIT)-like switching in metamaterial was experimentally and theoretically demonstrated in the microwave-frequency region. The metamaterial unit cell consists of two identical split-ring resonators, which are arranged on both sides of a dielectric substrate with asymmetry. It is found that the classical EIT-like switching can be achieved by changing the polarization of the incident electromagnetic wave. The results of this study are promising for practical applications.

Optical filters utilizing the evanescent filed coupling between the side polished fiber and polymer planar waveguide were fabricated and optical properties of the devices were measured. A scheme for reducing polarization dependent properties of the device was proposed and demonstrated experimentally. Our measurement results showed that resonance wavelengths and filtering depth of the optical filters can be determined by adjusting thickness of planar waveguide and polishing depth of the fiber. The device fabrication procedure including fiber polishing steps and formation of polymer planar waveguide were described. The optical characteristics of fabricated optical filers were that 3 dB bandwidth was 15 nm, the resonance wavelength difference between the TE and TM polarized response was less then 2 nm, and insertion loss was less then 0.2 dB. The measured resonance wavelength drift dut to the variation of ambient temperature was -0.35 nm/$^{\circ}C$.

A fiber optic voltage sensor is demonstrated with a new signal processing scheme that displays the magnitude and the waveform of applied voltage with immunity from the signal frequency change. The sensor is based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a PZT phase modulator as a sensing element. We observed a linear relationship between applied voltage and the number of fringe shift during a half cycle of the ac signal. The temperature dependence of the sensor output is experimentally evaluated over the temperature range from $-20^{\circ}C to 80^{\circ}C$. It is demonstrated that the detrimental polarization modulation effect can be overcome by using polarization maintaining fibers or a half-wave plate. plate.

The scattering of a normally incident monochromatic light by optically active concentric double cylinders is studied by using a numerical method. A numerical code is developed on the basis of the analytical solutions, and the angular distributions of the intensity and the polarization of the scattered light are computed for some specific cases. The numerical code can be used to non-invasively determine the size, structure, and composition of a double cylinder with high accuracy by measuring the angular distribution of the scattered light by an experiment.

Liquid-crystalline (LC) monomer, which was functionalized with a coumarin group on their extremity, was synthesized by UV light irradiation in their LC phases. LC monomer was converted into the dimers by the cycloaddition reaction of the coumarin group, and the LC phases were maintained after photodimerization reaction. The dimers showed LC phases in the wider temperature range than those of the corresponding monomer. Structures of the compound were identified by FT IR and $^1H$ NMR spectroscopies. Their phase transition temperatures and thermal stability were also investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), gel permeating chromatography (GPC) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). From optical polarizing microscopy, the prepared polymer shows enantiotropic liquid crystallinity with smectic and nematic textures.
