We present an analytic equation for the reflectivity spectrum of a Bragg reflector in terms of the front mirror reflectivity, due to the refractive index difference between the refractive index of outside medium and the average refractive index of Bragg reflector structures, and the reflectivity of a Bragg reflector calculated by the coupled wave method. We show that even Fresnel reflection causes the reflectivity spectrum of a bragg reflector to be very different from that of Bragg reflectors calculated by the coupled wave method. The reflectivity spectrum of a Bragg reflector is dramatically changed because the interference effect between the reflected wave from the front facet and that from the Bragg reflector is changed due to the difference of a phase change from a Bragg reflector when the sequence of layers in a Bragg reflector is changed.

접지된 유전체슬랩 위에 주기적으로 스트립이 놓여있는 격자구조에 대한 전자파 산란현상을 반사격자(reflection grating) 관점과 누설파안테나(leaky wave antenna) 관점에서 조사하였다. 수치해석 결과로 입사파의 편파에 무관한 Bragg blazing 현실과 동시에 Bragg 및 off-Bragg blazing 현상이 확인되는 경우를 조사하였으며 그 특성(복소전파상수, 복사패턴, 산란특성)에 대하여 논의하였다.

Polystyrene thin films containing Bragg structures have been successfully obtained by the removal of DBR porous silicon films from the DBR structured porous silicon/polystyrene composite film in HF/$H_2O$ mixture solution and by replicating the nano-structures of porous silicon containing Bragg structure. Polystyrene thin films containing Bragg structures displayed unique optical reflection resonances in optical reflection spectrum. This optical reflection band was resulted from the interference of reflection wavelength at Bragg structure of polystyrene thin films. The wavelength of reflection resonances could be modified by the change of Bragg structure of the master. Polystyrene thin films containing Bragg structures were flexible and maintained their optical characteristics upon bending. The Polystyrene thin films replicate the photonic features and the nanostructure of the master.

In this paper we proposed a new Bragg grating waveguide in order to improve reflectivity and to achieve compactness. Bragg gratings with various thicknesses were engraved in the middle of the core layer with a length of 3 mm. For the sake of cost-effectiveness, the $3^{rd}$ order Bragg grating waveguides were fabricated via conventional photolithography. The maximum reflectivities for the fixed width waveguide of $6{\mu}m$ with the 0.1 and $0.3{\mu}m$-thick Bragg gratings were, -13.14 and -6.25 dB, respectively, and the Bragg wavelengths were 1562.28, 1564.10 nm, respectively. A slight increase in the Bragg grating thickness can result in a remarkable reduction in the length of the Bragg grating waveguide with a fixed reflectivity.

Leakage and Bragg condition of optical waveguides with blazed grating profile are evaluated in detail by using novel and rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on eigenvalue problem. The blazed waveguides classified as symmetric, sawtooth and asymmetric gratings occur leaky-wave stop-band at Bragg conditions and anomalies based on Rayleigh condition near Bragg conditions. Furthermore, DFB properties of blazed waveguides at Bragg conditions are analyzed by applying longitudinal equivalent transmission-line with characteristic impedance of periodic grating. The numerical results show that the reflected power of DFB waveguides is maximized at Bragg conditions in which leaky-wave stop-bands occur.

Leakage and Bragg condition of optical waveguide with asymmetric rectangular grating profile are evaluated in detail by using novel and rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on eigenvalue problem. The optical waveguide composed by asymmetric rectangular grating occur leaky-wave stop-bands at Bragg conditions, and anomalies based on Rayleigh-Wood condition near Bragg conditions. Furthermore, DFB properties of the guiding structure at Bragg conditions are analyzed by applying longitudinal equivalent transmission-line with characteristic impedance of periodic grating. The numerical results show that filtering characteristics that maximize the reflected power of DFB waveguide are activated near Bragg conditions, in which leaky-wave stop-bands occur.

The present research describes the Bragg reflection of obliquely incident waves propagating over sinusoidally varying topographies. A numerical model based on the boundary element method is employed. Wave numbers providing Bragg reflection are calculated and compared to theoretical predictions. The reflection coefficients obtained from this model are also compared with those of the eigenfunction expansion method. A very good agreement is observed.

Bragg detuning effect if, one of the serious problems if the photopolymer is used for the recording material of holography memories. And the critical reasons of that are known as the bulk refractive index change and shrinkage of recording material. However, the trials for analyzing the effect are mainly on the K-sphere and biased on the transmission hologram. So, we approached Bragg detuning effect numerically and applied the method to the transmission holograms and the reflection holograms all together. We simulated it with MATLAB. As a result, the bulk refractive index change causes+Bragg detuning effect on the transmission holograms and the reflection holograms. But the shrinkage leads to+Bragg detuning effect on the transmission hologram and-Bragg detuning effect on the reflective hologram. Compared to experimental result, the bulk refractive index change(${\fallingdotseq}4{\times}10^{-4}$) and the ratio of shrinkage to the thickness of the material(${\fallingdotseq}1.67{\times}10^{-3}$) could be matched with Bragg detuning effect on the transmission hologram and the reflection hologram.

New method to encode multiple photonic features of Bragg type reflector on silicon wafer has been investigated. Multiple bit encodes of distributed Bragg reflector features have been prepared by electrochemical etching of crystalline silicon by using various square wave current densities. Optical characterization of multi-encoding of distributed Bragg reflectors on porous silicon was achieved by Ocean optics 2000 spectrometer for the search of possible applications of multiple bit encoding of distributed Bragg reflectors such as multiplexed assays and chemical sensors. The morphology and cross-sectional structure of multi-encoded distributed Bragg reflectors was investigated by field emission scanning electron micrograph.

In this study, the Bragg resonant of cnoidal waves propagating over a sinusoidally varying topography lying on a uniformly sloping beach is investigated. The governing equations derived from the Boussinesq equations are numerically integrated. The effects of fast varying terms and nonlinearity in reflection coefficients are also examined. Variation of reflection coefficient for different sloping beaches is studied. It is found that reflection coefficients are not strongly dependent on slopes of beaches.
