본 논문에서는 As-Ge-Se-S 박막에 (P:P) 편광빔을 이용하여 회절격자를 형성시키고 비편광 (Non-Polarization) 빔을 이용하여 생성된 격자를 소거시키고 그에 따른 회절효율을 조사 하였다. (P:P) 편광으로 기록된 회절 효율은 시간이 지나도 최대 회절효율의 변화가 없었으나 비편광 빔으로 기록된 회절효율은 시간이 지남에 따라 급격한 회절효율의 감소를 보인다. 따라서 (P:P) 편광으로 회절격자를 형성시키고 비편광빔으로 격자의 소거를 진행하여 약 83%의 회절격자의 소거가 이루어졌다.

In this study, we demonstrate the change of optical characteristic by thickness of metal deposition on nano metal grid polarizer film fabrication. Nano metal grid polarizer film consists of aluminium grid polarizer layer on PET (Polyethylene phthalate) substrate. We aim at metal grid layer formation for the large nano wire grid polarizer fabrication. we draw process conditions of the nano metal grid polarizer film fabrication to improve transmittance and extinction ratio and Nano wire grid polarizer film (NWGP) film is fabricated with 140 nm pitch, 70 nm width, and 70 nm depth of metal grid on optimum design conditions. As a result, we get high optical properties of nano wire grid polarizer which is the maximum transmittance of 80% and the extinction ratio of $10^6$ at 600 nm wavelength respectively.

The polarization-selective beam splitter grating can be widely used in numerous optical information processing systems. In this paper, to design a high-efficiency plasma polarization beam splitter (PBS), the structure composed of an Ag metal layer in Littrow mounting is implemented. To achieve high diffraction efficiency in the transmitted 0th-order TE polarization and the reflected 0th-order TM polarization, the grating depth and grating ratio of presented PBS is optimized by using rigorous Modal Transmission-Line Theory. From the optimized results, PBS has advantages of wide band properties for incident wavelength and angle, and the efficiency is higher than 95% for both TE and TM polarization. Therefore, this highly efficient PBS wideband grating with high extinction ratio can be used as an excellent optical diffraction device.

A novel fiber optic sensor is demonstrated using a FBG in PM(Polarization-Maintaining) fiber. Gratings have been written in a Bow-Tie type fiber using the phase mask. The operation of the sensor simply involves monitoring back-reflected Bragg wavelengths from the grating. Since PM fiber has two principal semi-axes with two indices of refraction, two Bragg wavelengths were observed. We have observed the position of Bragg wavelengths for PM FBG shifted simultaneously by either applying the longitudinal strain or temperature change. The wavelength sensitivity of 1.2pm/$\mu$$\varepsilon$ about a longitudinal strain and the wavelength sensitivity of 11.4pm/$^{\circ}C$ about a temperature have been experimentally achieved. The wavelength sensitivity of both longitudinal strain and temperature are approximately same with the reported values for the single mode FBG. On the other hand, the change of separation between Bragg wavelengths was observed by the applying transverse stress. We observed that the separation between two Bragg wavelengths is proportional to the applied transverse stress. The wavelength sensitivity of 14.6 pm/N about a transverse stress has been achieved. We have demonstrated PM FBG sensors can measure the transverse stress independently from the effects of temperature.

We design a polarization-independent dielectric multilayer thin-film diffraction grating for a spectral-beam-combining (SBC) system with a simple grating structure and low aspect ratio. To maintain the high quality of the SBC beam, we propose a multilayer mirror structure in which the wavefront distortion due to stress accumulation is minimized. Moreover, to prevent light absorption from contamination, an optimized design to minimize the grating thickness was performed. The optimally designed diffraction grating has 99.36% diffraction efficiency for -1st-order polarization-independent light, for incidence at the Littrow angle and 1055-nm wavelength. It is confirmed that the designed diffraction grating has sufficient process margin to secure a polarization-independent diffraction efficiency of 96% or greater.

The polarization characteristics of nano-scale grating-assisted polarization-insensitive coupler (GA-PIC) consisted of double sandwiched rib-type layers are evaluated in detail by using modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on equivalent network. To obtain the polarization-insensitive condition of GA-PIC, the coupling lengths as a function of the refractive index and thickness of sandwiched rib-type layer as well as the grating thickness and period are analyzed for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. The numerical results show that the GA-PIC with hundreds of nanometer scale is realized by properly choosing structural and material parameters of double sandwiched layers and grating.

A polarization selective blazed grating employing metal-slit arrays was proposed. Nano-scale metal-slits were applied to the micro-scale blazed grating to give the functionality of polarization selection. Case study was carried out for the proposed structure utilizing numerical FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain method) simulation. Diffraction efficiency of 77.61% and polarization extinction ratio of 8.99 was achieved with arbitrary parameters and diffraction efficiency of 64.22% and polarization extinction ratio of 81.09 was achieved with other parameters to enhance extinction ratio.

We fabricate a polarization-independent dielectric multilayer thin-film diffraction grating for a spectral-beam-combining (SBC) system with a simple grating structure and low aspect ratio. Due to the refractive index and thickness error of the manufactured thin films, the diffraction efficiency of the fabricated diffraction grating was lower than that of the design. The causes of the errors were analyzed, and it was confirmed through simulation that diffraction efficiency could be compensated through an additional coating on the manufactured diffraction grating. As a result of sputtering an additional Ta₂O₅ layer on a fabricated diffraction grating, the diffraction efficiency was corrected and a maximum 91.7% of polarization-independent diffraction efficiency was obtained.

Some polarization characteristics of reflection type photopolymer are investigated. Photopolymer on a Mylar substrate alters an incoming linearly polarized laser beam to an elliptical polarization. Due to the rotation of the polarization, the recording gratings show different diffraction efficiencies. The rotation angle is of order of 10-50% for the tested samples. It is found that the polymer layer does not changes the polarization direction but the Mylar substrate alone distorts the incoming polarization to a comparable degree. As align the polarization states of photopolymers to be parallel with a laser using a He-Ne laser(633nm), which is not sensitive to that material, it was possible to make high diffraction efficiency gratings.
