In this paper, the demonstration of a 130-channel optical demultiplexer based on the cascaded volume holographic gratings is presented. By serially adding the second holographic grating, which has different grating period, slant angle, and center wavelength compared to those of the first grating, the operating wavelength range of the optical demultiplexer could be expanded, and therefore, the number of channels of the holographic demultiplexer is increased by twice. As a result of the experiment, a 0.4-nm-spaced demultiplexer with the channel uniformity of 3.5 dB, the 3dB-bandwidth of 0.12nm, and the channel crosstalk of -20dB is experimentally achieved.

An electro-optic polymer digital optical switch with rib waveguides is designed and fabricated by using the RIE method. POlarization-independent and wavelength-insensitive operation is demonstrated at the wavelengths of 1.3mm and 1.55mm, for the first time in electro-optic polymer-based devices. The rib waveguides have been designed to achieve good guiding properites for both TE and TM polarizations by controlling the etching depth as well as its aspect ratio. Especially theetching depth is controlled to change the guided mode profiles of the rib waveguide and thus to achieve an optimum coupling in the branch. The measured crosstalk is better than -16dB and the extincton ratio of each output port is greater than 16dB.

In this study, the effects of the frequency-dependent characteristics of through-silicon vias (TSVs) on the performance of 3D ICs are examined by evaluating a typical interconnection structure, which is composed of 32-nm CMOS inverter drivers and receivers connected through TSVs. The frequency-domain model of TSVs is extracted in S-parameter from a 3D electromagnetic (EM) method, where the dimensional variation effect of TSVs can be accurately considered for a comprehensive parameter sweep simulation. A parametric analysis shows that the propagation delay increases with the diameter and height of the TSVs but decreases with the pitch and liner thickness. We also investigate the crosstalk effect between TSVs by testing different signaling conditions. From the simulations, the worst signal integrity is observed when the signal experiences a simultaneously coupled transition in the opposite direction from the aggressor lines. Simulation results for nine-TSV bundles having regular and staggered patterns reveal that the proposed method can characterize TSV-based 3D interconnections of any dimensions and patterns.

대용량, 고속 정보처리가 요구되는 System의 모듈은 Data 처리의 고속성 및 회로의 고집적이 가능한 MCM의 형태로 구현되어 ATM, GPS 및 PCS 등의 분야에 광범위하게 응 용되고 있다. 위와 같은 High Speed 응용분야에서의 System 성능은 Interconnect Line의 전달지연, 임피던스 부정합에 의한 신호 반사 손실. 신호선 간의 Crosstalk, Ground Bounce 등의 현상에 대한 최적화 여부에 결정적인 영향을 받는다. 그러나 Interconnect의 특성상 정 형이 존재하지 않으므로 추상적인 Library를 구축하는 형식으로 접근할 수밖에 없으며 이를 위하여 여러기본 구조를 정의한후 각 Dimension을 변수로 두고 해석 결과를 합성하여 Database화하는 접근방식이다. 본 논문에서는 MCM-D 공정을 이용하여 Interconnect Line 특성을 분석하고 Database화 하기 위한 Test Pattern을 구현하고 Time Domain reflectometry(TDR)을 이용하여 그특성들을 측정 분석하였다. Test pattern 제작은 MCM-D 공정으로 최소선폭 27$\mu$m, Via Hole 75$\mu$m으로 형성하였고 2 Layer Signal과 GND로 총 3Layer를 구현하였다. 특성분석을 위해 TDR장비와 모데링 및 Simulation S/W인 IPA 510 을 사용하였다. 이를 통해 MCM-D를 이용한 공정에서 Interconcet Line의 고주파 특성을 측정하고 정량화하여 LIbrary를 제작할수 있었다.

We propose and demonstrate a novel polarization- and wavelength-independent digital electrooptic switch in $Ti:LiNbO_3$ with switching voltage of ${\pm}$32V at $1.55{\mu}m$ wavelength. This $2{\times}2$ integrated optic switch is characterized by a step-like response to the applied voltage. Switching is achieved through adiabatic mode evolution in an asymmetric waveguide junction. An average insertion loss of ∼4.5dB and polarization independent switching with average crosstalk of -12dB are achieved.

머리전달함수(HRTF)가 정확하더라도 사람의 얼굴이 움직이게 되면 실제 머리전달함수와 미리 측정한 머리전달 함수가 달라져 입체음향 시스템의 성능이 저하되므로 정확한 얼굴의 회전각이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 정확한 머리전달함수의 입력을 위해 사람 얼굴의 회전각을 추정하고자 한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 먼저 Haar-like 특징을 이용하여 얼굴을 검출한 후 전처리 작업을 통해 눈의 바깥쪽 경계면과 안쪽 경계면을 검출한다. 그리고 검출된 두 개의 경계면의 비를 이용하여 얼굴의 회전각을 추정한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존에 방법들에 비해 적용 범위가 넓음을 실험을 통해 알 수 있었다.

We propose and fabricate an 1${\times}$2 asymmetric optical switch by TOE using SOI wafer based on silicon which has very large TOE figure and it is a good material for optical devices. SOI wafer consists of 3 layers; upper Si layer for device(waveguide;core, n=3.5), buried oxide layer for insulator(clad, n=1.5) and Si substrate layer. We designed 1${\times}$2 asymmetric y-branched single mode optical waveguide switch by BPM simulation and metal heater by heat transfer simulation. Fabricated switch shows about 3.5 watts of power consumption and over 20dB of crosstalk between output channels.

Fiber-Fabry-Perot (FFP) tunable filters, the essential component of WDM transmission, were designed, fabricated and characterized. Multi-layered thin film mirrors that consists of an optical collimater's corss section as a substrate and TiO$_{2}$SiO$_{2}$ alternating multi-layered films as a filter wer designed by means of the transfer matrix method. Fabricated mirrors showed the high reflectivity over around 98% as expected. After fabricating the tuneable filters using PZT, we measured FSR, FWHM, finesse , crosstalk and insertion loss, confirming that the built devices satisfied the optical filter's specifications required in the SEDM transmission systems.

In this paper, Passive Temperature Compensation Technology is apply to 8-channel Optical multiplexer with 1000Hz channel spacing. The 8-channel multiplexer is fabricated by connecting three cascaded Mach Zehnder Interferometer(MZI) of optical fiber type, and each interferometer has the wavelength interval of 100GHz, 2000Hz and 4000Hz, respectively. Furthermore, to acquire uniform insertion loss, it is fabricated by using Wavelength Flatten Coupler(WFC) in which the variation of insertion loss is low. $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. The optical fiber is very sensitive in the thermal variation around. Thus, When fabrication the prototype, it is applied a technique to compensate the optical thermal effect because the center wavelength at the output is shifted according to the thermal variation around. In summary, The prototype composed by eight cascaded MZI has an insertion loss of 5.5 dB, the bandwidth of 0.8nm at 0.5 dB point, and channel crosstalk of 25 dB. Furthermore, the loss dependent on polarization is measured as 0.06dB. Consequently, the output wavelength is shifted within 0.05 m when the surrounding temperature varies until $60^{\circ}C$
