In this paper, we investigated a novel UV sensor using evanescent field coupling between the side polished fiber and photo-functional polymer waveguide. It was found that resonant wavelength shifts occur due to variation in the refractive index of polymer planar waveguide for its photo-functional properties on exposed UV. Spiroxazine (photochromic dye) was used as the planar waveguide. The resonant wavelength responses were exhibited at 1.44 nm/mW, 1.64 nm/mW, and 1.78 nm/mW when UV irradiations were exposed for 20 seconds, 30 seconds, and 40 seconds, respectively. The recovery time of sensor was independent of UV exposure power and 90% recovery time was 100 seconds.

A novel UV sensor was manufactured and characterized using evanescent field coupling between photochromic dye dispersed polymer waveguide and side polished fiber. The spiroxazine (photochromic dye) dispersed polymer was used as planar waveguides. The resonant wavelength was shifted owing to refractive index variation of planar waveguide on exposed UV because of its photo-functional properties. The sensitivities are $1.21{\mu}W/mw$ and $2.75{\mu}W/mw$ when UV intensities increased after exposure times were fixed at 3 seconds and 5 seconds, respectively. Output optical power according to UV intensity increases and saturation time decreases as the intensity of UV radiations increases.

Planar optical waveguides which have a higher refractive index than that of substrate were fabricated by proton exchange between $Li^+$ and $H^+$. Benzoic acid was used as proton source and process was carried out under the various reaction time and temperature. The depth of waveguide layer and the generated mode number were investigated by standard prism coupler. The cut-off depth for the fabrication of single mode optical waveguides was obtained by the function which was expressed on refractive index profile. Finally the experimental conditions for cut-of depth of single mode could be confirmed. Channel waveguides were manufactured from these confirmed conditions and the effective confinement of the induced light into waveguides was observed.

In this paper, we have investigated a fiber type active coupler which utilizes the mode coupling between the side polished single mode optical fiber and the active multimode planar waveguide. The proposed device can be used for not only tunable wavelength filter or optical intensity modulator but also a tool for measuring optical properties of guiding material such as refractive index, birefringence, electro-optic coefficient, and thermo-optic coefficient. We gave designed and optimized a coupler structure using the BPM and fabricated the device using thermo-optic polymer as active planar waveguide overlay. The device showed that insertion loss was less then 0.5 dB, extinction ratio was -13 dB at the resonance wavelength, and the wavelength tunablity due to thermo-optic effect was -1.5 nm/$^{\circ}C$. The active coupler using thermo-optic effect can be used as a wavelength tunable filer, an optical intensity modulator and an optical sensor. pulses that are subsequently compressed by a dispersive optical fiber. Experimental results show that $sech^2$ shape pulses with a pulse width of ~14 ps and a time bandwidth product of ~0.34 are successfully generated at 10 GHz repetition rate. In contrast to other methods, such as higher order soliton compression, this approach does not depend on the optical power and thus shows promise for application to low-power lasers.

플라즈마 공정은 DRAM, 이종접합 양극성 트랜지스터(HBTs), 레이저, 평면도파로(planar lightwave circuit)와 같은 전자소자 및 광조자 제작에 있어서 핵심 공정중의 하나이다. 최근 미세 구조의 크기가 극도로 감소하게 됨에 따라 실제 소작 제작에 있어서 미세한 모양을 식각하는 공정이 매우 중요하게 되었다. 그 중에서 고밀도 유도결합 플라즈마(high density inductively coupled plasma)를 이용한 기술은 빠르고 정확한 식각률, 우수한 식각 균일도와 높은 재현성 때문에 습식식각 기술보다 선호되고 있다. 본 연구는 평판형(planar) 고밀도 유도결합 플라즈마 식각장치를 이용하여 BCl$_3$와 BCl$_3$/Ar 플라즈마에 따른 AlGaAs/GaAs의 식각결과를 비교 분석하였다. 공정 변수는 ICP 소스(source power)파워, RIE 척(chuck) 파워, 공정 압력, 그리고 Ar 조성비(0-100%)이었다. BCl$_3$에 Ar을 첨가하게 되면 순수한 BCl$_3$ 플라즈마에서의 AlGaAs/GaAs 식각률(> 3000 $\AA$/min) 보다 분당 약 1000$\AA$ 이상 높은 식각률(>4000 $\AA$/min)을 나타내었다. 이 결과는 Ar 플라즈마의 이온보조(ion-assisted)가 식각률 증가에 기인한다고 예측된다. 그리고 전자주사 현미경(SEM)과 원자력간 현미경(AFM)을 사용하여 식각 후 표면 거칠기 및 수직 측벽도 둥을 분석하였다. 마지막으로 XPS를 이용하여 식각된 후에 표면에 남아 있는 잔류 성분 분석을 연구하였다. 본 결과를 종합하면 BCl$_3$에 기초한 평판형 유도결합 플라즈마는 AlGaAs/GaAs 구조의 식각시 많은 우수한 특성을 보여주었다.79$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 2는 0.045$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.014$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 3은 0.123$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.017$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 4는 0.055$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 5는 0.031$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.015$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 6은 0.111$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.020$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$로 나타났다. 3. 단일재료의 악취흡착성능 실험결과 암모니아는 코코넛, 소나무수피, 왕겨에서 흡착능력이 우수하게 나타났으며, 황화수소는 펄라이트, 왕겨, 소나무수피에서 다른 재료에 비하여 상대적으로 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 혼합충진재는 암모니아의 경우 코코넛과 펄라이트의 비율이 70%:30%인 혼합재료 3번과 소나무수피와 펄라이트의 비율이 70%:30%인 혼합재료 6번에서 다른 혼합재료에 비하여 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 황화수소의 경우 혼합재료에 따라 약간의 차이를 보였다. 4. 코코넛과 소나무수피의 경우 암모니아가스에 대한 흡착성능은 거의 비슷한 것으로 사료되며, 코코넛의 경우 전량을 수입에 의존하고 있다는 점에서 국내 조달이 용이하며, 구입 비용도 적게 소요되는 소나무수피를 사용하는 것이 경제적이라고 사료된다. 5. 마지막으로 악취제거 미생물균주를 접종한 소나무수피 70%와 펄라이트 30%의 혼합재료를 24시간동안 장기간 운전

Japanese government college researchers, including Sekino Tadashi(關野貞), have conducted research studies and collected data, on overall Korean cultural relics as well as Silla tumuli(新羅古墳) in the early modern times under the Japanese imperialistic rule. They were supported by the Meichi government in the early stage of research, by the Chosun government-general, and by their related organizations after Korea was coIonialized to carry out investigations on Korean antiquities, fine arts, architecture, anthropology, folklore, and so on. The objective for which they prosecuted inquiries into Korean cultural relics, including Silla tumuli, may be attributed to the purport to find out such data as needed for the theoretical foundation to justify their colonialization of Korea. Such a reason often showed locally biased or distorted views. Investigations and surveys had been incessantly carried out by those Japanese scholars who took a keen interest in Korean tumuli and excavated relics since 1886. 'Korea Architecture Survey Reports' conducted in 1904 by Sekino in Korea gives a brief introduction of the contents of Korean tumuli, including the Five Royal Mausoleums(五陵). And in 1906 Imanishi Ryu(今西龍) launched for the first time an excavation survey on Buksan Tumulus(北山古墳) in Sogeumgangsan(小金剛山) and on 'Namchong(南塚)' in Hwangnam-dong, which greatly contributed to the foundation of a basic understanding of Wooden chamber tombs with stone mound(積石木槨墳) and stone chambers with tunnel entrance(橫穴式石室墳). The ground plan and cross section of stone chambers made in 1909 at his excavation survey of seokchimchong(石枕塚) by Yazui Seiyichi(谷井第一) who majored in architecture made a drawing in excavation surveys for the first time in Korea, in which numerical expressions are sharply distinguished from the previous sketched ones. And even in the following excavation surveys this kind of drawing continued. Imanishi and Yazui elucidated that wooden chambers with stone mound chronologically differs from the stone chambers with tunnel entrance on the basis of the results of surveys of the locational characteristics of Silla tumuli, the forms and size of tomb entrance, excavated relics, and so forth. The government-general put in force 'the Historic Spots and Relics Preservation Rules' and 'the Historic Spots Survey Council Regulations' in 1916, establishing 'Historic Spots Survey Council and Museum Conference. When museums initiated their activities, they exhibited those relics excavated from tumuli and conducted surveys of relics with the permission of the Chosun government-general. A gold crown tomb(金冠塚) was excavated and surveyed in 1921 and a seobong tomb(瑞鳳塚) in 1927. Concomitantly with this large size wooden chamber tombs with stone mound attracted strong public attention. Furthermore, a variety of surveys of spots throughout the country were carried out but publication of tumuli had not yet been realized. Recently some researchers's endeavors led to publish unpublished reports. However, the reason why reports of such significant tumuli as seobong tomb had not yet been published may be ascribed to the critical point in those days. The Gyeongju Tumuli Distribution Chart made by Nomori Ken(野守健) on the basis of the land register in the late 1920s seems of much significance in that it specifies the size and locations of 155 tumuli and shows the overall shape of tumuli groups within the city, as used in today's distribution chart. In the 1930s Arimitsu Kyoichi(有光敎一) and Saito Tadashi(齋藤忠) identified through excavation surveys of many wooden chamber tombs with stone mound and stone chambers with tunnel entrance, that there were several forms of tombs in a tomb system. In particular, his excavation survey experience of those wooden chamber tombs with stone mound which were exposed in complicated and overlapped forms show features more developed than that of preceding excavation surveys and reports publication, and so on. The result of having reviewed the contents of many historic spots surveyed at that time. Therefore this reexamination is considered to be a significant project in arranging the history of archaeology in Korea.
