A wide dynamic range heterodyne interferometer scheme using intermode beat between a stabilized, dual frequency He-Ne laser beam has been applied for a measurement of optical thickness of an optical medium. Resolution of the optical thickness measurement is about $\pm$ 1.74 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Using this technique, we are able to determine the optical thickness of an organic dye film. We also obtain a map of the optical thickness variations over a surface of the film

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, the heterodyne laser interferometer plays as an ultra-precise measurement system. However, the heterodyne laser interferometer has some unwanted environmental error which is caused from refraction in the air. This is an obstacle to improve the measurement accuracy in nanometer scale. In this paper we propose a compensation algorithm based on Data Fusion method which reduces the environmental error in the heterodyne laser interferometer. Through some experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in measurement accuracy.

In heterodyne laser interferometer, we use a phase difference between two beams to calculate target's length. However, there exist an nonlinearity error when measuring length in nanoscale. It is caused from frequency-mixed problem of two polarized beams, called cross talks. This fact limits the usefulness of an laser interferometer. To compensate the error, we propose a WLS(weighted least square) algorithm, which will reduce nonlinearity error and make a better optimization in heterodyne laser interferometer.

본 논문에서는 SDR(Software Defined Radio) 시스템을 위한 Digital IF(Intermediate Frequency) Up/Down 변환기를 설계하고 성능을 평가하였다. 설계한 시스템은 AD 변환부, DA 변환부 및 Up-Down conversion 기능을 수행하는 FPGA로 구성된다. AD 변환부는 Analog Device 사의 AD6645를 사용하였으며, DA 변환부는 Analog Device 사의 AD9775를 사용하였다. Up-Down conversion 기능을 수행하는 FPGA부는 샘플된 IF 입력을 혼합기와 NCO에 의해 기저대역(DC)으로 다운 시키는 역할을 하며, 14bit의 기저대역(DC) 신호를 혼합기와 NCO에 의해 IF 출력으로 올려주는 역할을 한다. 이러한 설계는 기존의 아날로그 헤테로다인 방식에 비하여 높은 유연성 및 우수한 성능 향상을 보여준다.

In this paper, we propose a development technique of high precision laser finder ranger within instrument distance 1km, instrument error less than 1 m by using pulse time of flight method in the 5m unit instrument and heterodyne method in the within Am unit. These propose methods can be more advanced to measurement velocity and more highly precision distance instrument not affected the strength of light. We also validate this usefulness.

On the homodyne interferometers, high pass filter(HPF) is usually used to remove the electrical noise in the interferent signal. Heterodyne interferometer has modulating frequency is shifted in the frequency region where the electrical noise effect is minimized by HPF effect. However, on the homodyne interferometer, the interferent DC-component of homodyne interferometer is unfortunately eliminated by using a HPF because its shifted frequency does not exist. Moreover, this effect is more serious the vibration amplitude is smaller. So, when unstable interferent signals via HPF are demodulated, a velocity is distorted. In this work, the mathematical explanation for the distortion of the homodyne interferent signal using the HPF is given. New synthetic heterodyne LDV based on the homodyne interferometer by exciting the reference mirror is proposed for the cancellation of the distortion. The optimum excitation condition of the mirror to compensate the distortion is discussed. The numerical simulation using the commercial MATLAB code is provided to show the effect of the proposed synthetic heterodyne LDV. The experimental results are also given and the effect of the proposed LDV is discussed.

Most mechanical systems are now operating consistently and getting faster due to the development of automation systems. Peoples' dependence on machines have increased as when problems occur within the mechanical system, personal injury and production loss may come as a result, as most of the mechanical system's malfunctions are caused by the failure of the rotational bearing. What we need now is a maintenance system that can warn us when it detects abnormal conditions before significant damage occurs to the bearing. In this study, we have developed an acoustic emissions sensor that can figure if the bearing works under the normal condition. With this acoustic emissions sensor, we can inspect the bearing for defects by using the Heterodyne technique, which converts the ultrasound signal into audio, as a signal conditioning process.

A novel ultra-narrow linewidth DFB laser in the extended FBG ring cavity having kHz linewidth is presented. The method of linewidth compression was realized by introducing an extended fiber ring cavity into the cavity between the external FBG and the Bragg grating inside a DFB laser diode. Optimum optical feedback control was achieved by using an optical circulator and a variable optical attenuator to prevent mode hopping induced by spatial hole burning. To prove the validity of the proposed scheme, a self-heterodyne measurement set-up with fiber delay line of 63 km was utilized for the ultra-narrow linewidth measurement. A 3 dB linewidth of less than 3 kHz was demonstrated, which is resolution limited performance. This linewidth is equivalent to 3 dB linewidth of 2$\times$10$^{-8}$ nm.
