Optimum Hamming apodized acousto-optic 2${\times}$2 add/drop multiplexers, using SiO$_2$ film loaded acoustic waveguide with angular offset to the Ti:LiNbO$_3$ waveguide, were fabricated. The four-port device consists of two input waveguides, a polarization beam splitter (PBS), two polarization conversion/acoustooptic tuning waveguide sections, a second PBS and two output waveguides. Insertion loss <7.1 ㏈ has been obtained and side-lobe of -19 ㏈ for -32 ㎽ RF driving power has been realized. Add/drop performance has been confirmed and a linear tuning rate of 8.1 nm/MHz and a 3 ㏈ spectral width of -1.5 nm were demonstrated.

전력계통에서 전류를 측정하는 변류기는 주요 전력 설비와 연계되어 보호 및 감시에 있어 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 그러나 기존방식의 전류 변성기는 자기포화에 의한 파형 왜곡과 써지나 잡음 등의 전기적 장치가 갖는 구조적 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위한 방법으로 전류에 의해 형성된 자계에 의해 광신호의 편광(polarization) 회전을 발생시키는 Faraday 효과를 가지는 광센서를 이용하여 보호계전 분야에 적용 가능한 전류계측기술을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 기존 전류변성기의 계통 보호에서 발생하는 문제점을 PSCAD/EMTDC 시스템을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 아울러 동일 조건에서 광 CT의 동작 특성을 산출하여 기존 전류변성기와 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과들로부터 광 CT는 기존 전류변성기가 자기포화되는 상황에서도 정확한 1차 전류의 측정이 가능함을 보였다.

광 밴드 갭(photonic band gap)을 가지는 광 결정(photonic crystal)을 이용하여 만들어진 미세 공진기(micro-resonator)를 통해 상온 연속 동작하는 레이저가 최근 개발되었다. 이 미세 공진기는 이득매질(gain medium)이 성장된 반도체의 기판방향과 기판에 수직한 방향을 각각 이차원 광 결정과 판 도파로(slab waveguide) 구조의 전반사를 이용하여 제한하는 구조이다 이러한 광 밴드 갭 공진기의 공진 모드는 그 동안 계산적인 방법을 통해 이론적으로 연구되어 왔으며, 직접 모드의 특성을 측정하는 실험의 필요성이 크게 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 광 밴드 갭에 의해 형성된 2차원 미세 공진기내에서 레이저 발진된 모드의 특성을 먼장 영역(far-field regime)에서 측정 분석한 결과를 보고한다.

The effect of decorrelation on the coincidence is investigated with correlated photons produced by parametric down-conversion process. The degree of correlation between photon pairs is adjusted by changing the polarization dependent transmissivities of thin glass plate\ulcorner in front of two detectors. It was found that the single counts of each detectors are proportional to the transmissivity and the coincidence is proportional to the product of transmissivities of the glasses in front of two detectors.

본 논문에서는 스트림 암호 시스템에서 사용이 되는 LFSR 을 이용한 이진 수열 발생기중 하나인 Threshold 발생기에 대한 광학적 구현 방법을 새로이 제안하였다. 광학적 구현을 위하여 LCD를 이용하므로서 LFSR 및 Mod 덧셈 연산을 위한 각 비트 값을 표현, 2차원 처리가 가능하게 하였다. Thredshold 발생기의 LFSR기능은 Shdow Casting 기법을 이용하여, 또한 XOR 연산 및 내적 계산을 위한 MOD덧셈 연산은 LCD 가 갖고 있는 편광 특성을 이용하여 광학적으로 구현하였다. 특히 본 논문에서는 Mod 2 덧셈 연산을 위한 새로운 광학적 구현 방법인 RSPM 을 제안하므로서 연산 결과 값 측정과 LCD 상의 데이타 값 표현 과정을 제외한 전 부분을 완전한 광학적 방법으로 처리가 가능하게 하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 광 Threshold 암호 시스템은 기존의 전자적인 H/W 구현 방법에서 문제가 되어오던 Tapping Point의 개수에 대한 한계성을 극복할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있으며, 또한 2차원 데이타인 영상용 암호화 시스템의 광학적 구현에 그 응용이 가능하다.

We report an implementation of the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey at a site that corresponds to a ruined castle. The objective of the survey was to characterise buried archaeological structures such as walls and tiles in Van Khan Tooril's Ruin, Mongolia, by 2D and 3D GPR techniques. GPR datasets were acquired in an area 10mby 9 m, with 10 cm line spacing. Two datasets were collected, using GPR with 500MHz and 800MHz frequency antennas. In this paper, we report the use of instantaneous parameters to detect archaeological targets such as tile, brick, and masonry by polarimetric GPR. Radar polarimetry is an advanced technology for extraction of target scattering characteristics. It gives us much more information about the size, shape, orientation, and surface condition of radar targets. We focused our interpretation on the strongest reflections. The image is enhanced by the use of instantaneous parameters. Judging by the shape and the width of the reflections, it is clear that moderate to high intensity response in instantaneous amplitude corresponds to brick and tiles. The instantaneous phase map gave information about the location of the targets, which appeared as discontinuities in the signal. In order to increase our ability to interpret these archaeological targets, we compared the GPR datasets acquired in two orthogonal survey directions. A good correlation is observed for the alignments of reflections when we compare the two datasets. However, more reflections appear in the north-south survey direction than in the west-east direction. This is due to the electric field orientation, which is in the horizontal plane for north-south survey directions and the horizontally polarised component of the backscattered high energy is recorded.

Measurements of the optical activity become very important issues in fields related to polymers, optical communications, astronomy, physics and many more. Hence it need to introduce this subject in our regular curriculum. In this experiment, an inexpensive, reliable, motorized polarimeter system which is suitable for undergraduate courses is constructed with PASCO's well-known Science Workshop 750 and a rotational motion sensor and light sensor, and the system is presented along with its experimental formulas. After responsivity of this system was checked by a half wave plate, and some repetitive experiments with 30% sucrose solution at 543.8 nm were performed. Comparing the experimental result with two calculated values from CRC data[1] showed that the specific rotation of the sucrose sample could be strongly suggested to be around +76 deg.cc/g.dm and it was an amply acceptable result for most undergraduate level courses.

We experimentally demonstrate the use of a gold-deposited side-polished fiber as a $2-{\mu}m$-band polarizing device to produce mode-locked pulses from a thulium/holmium-codoped fiber ring cavity. The mode-locking effect was induced by nonlinear transmission caused by the gold-deposited side-polished fiber, due to nonlinear polarization rotation of the oscillated beam within the fiberized cavity. It is also shown that ~558-fs pulses with a peak power of ~6.7 kW could readily be produced at a wavelength of 1935 nm through subsequent thulium/holmium-codoped fiber amplification, due to the higher-order soliton compression effect.

Passive polarization mode splitters at λ= 1.55 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were designed and fabricated based on Ti:x-cut LiNbO$_3$ single-mode optical waveguide and two-mode interference theory. The splitting ratio with waveguide width 8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, branching angle 0.55$^{\circ}$ and interfering length 470 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ showed 16.18 dB, 21.25 dB for TE and TM input polarization modes, respectively. Polarization cross-talk of -16.28 dB and -21.28 dB for TE and TM modes was achieved. Total insertion losses of 2.24 dB/cm (TE) and 2.41 dB/cm (TM) were also measured. The devices operated nearly wavelength independently over a range or 30 nm.

In this paper, we proposed a simple measurement method to find the behaviors of the fiber-to-waveguide coupler. The polished fiber blocks and planar waveguides on silicon dioxide were fabricated independently and then optically coupled by physical pressure. Several kinds of polymer with different refractive indices were used for waveguide films. The proposed method makes it possible to measure the center wavelength, bandwidth, extinction ratio, and polarization dependence of the coupler during fabrication procedure. The wavelength sensitivity increased with refractive index of polymer. The symmetric planar waveguide structure and isotropic property of guiding materials reduced polarization dependent property. Insertion loss of the coupler was less than 0.5dB. It is expected that our measurement method is useful for developing various optical devices using evanescent coupling between polished fiber and planar waveguide such as optical modulators and filters etc.
