Effects of the addition of Cr adhesion layer to $W/SiO_2$ multilayer Bragg reflectors on the resonance characteristics of film bulk acoustic wave resonator (FBAR) devices are presented. Main resonance peaks could be significantly shifted to higher frequency, mainly due to the addition of Cr adhesion layer to multilayer Bragg reflectors and control of the bottom electrode thickness as well. The FBAR devices with the Cr adhesion layer in Bragg reflectors could result in much more improved resonance characteristics at about 3 GHz in terms of return loss and Q-factor.

An improved analytical model has been developed to calculate an accurate Bragg curve of proton beam with an arbitrary energy. The model takes the transport of the secondary protons produced by the nuclear inelastic reactions into account. By the model, measured Bragg curves of proton beams with ten energies between 250 and 70 MeV are reproduced well. It will serve to obtain fundamental data for treatment planning and for energy scanning.

We proposed and demonstrated a fiber optic sensor for detecting the thermo-optic coefficient of a liquid, based on a cascade of two different FBGs. One of the two FBGs was etched, and its cladding was removed, for evanescent wave coupling with an external liquid. The Bragg wavelength of the non-etched FBG was used as a reference for the temperature of the surrounding liquid. The refractive index (RI) and thermo-optic (T-O) coefficient of a liquid can be detected from the difference between the Bragg wavelengths of the two FBGs, and the variation of the difference in accordance with temperature.

Diffraction anomalies in the periodic strip grating over a grounded dielectric layer are investigated for the plane wave incidence case of both arbitrary(oblique) incidence angle and arbitrary polarization by use of the spectral domain method combined with the sampling theorem. Some numerical results for the Bragg and Off-Bragg blazing phenomena for the cases of arbitrary incidence angle and polarization as well as TE and TM polarization are presented along with discussions on those phenomena.

The functionalized photonic crystals of porous silicon biosensor was prepared for the application as a label-free biosensor based on distributed Bragg reflector interferometer. Prepared distributed Bragg reflector of porous silicon biosensor displayed sharp reflection in the optical reflective spectra. The mean of construction of molecular architectures on distributed Bragg reflector of porous silicon surfaces was investigated for the step-by-step binding interaction with amines, biotin, avidin, and biotinylated protein A. The subsequent introduction of avidin, and biotinylated protein A resulted in the reflectivity shifted to longer wavelengths, indicative of a change in refractive indices induced by binding of biomolecules.

We substantially increased the temperature sensitivity of a fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor by gluing it onto a piece of bi-metal strip. The temperature-induced Bragg wavelength shift is increased upto 5 times more than that of the intrinsic FBG sensor by the strain effect from the deflected bi-metal. We showed the feasibility of the proposed sensor by comparing the temperature measuring experiments with those of the intrinsic FBG sensors. Also we measured temperature varying the length of the bi-metal pieces and analyzed the result effect of it.

A polymeric waveguide-type wavelength filter based on a Bragg grating has been proposed and fabricated using the simple nanoimpring technique, for the first time to our knowledge. An ultraviolet transparent stamp with the single-mode waveguide pattern incorporating a surface-relief-type Bragg grating was specially designed selective dry-etching process. Using this stamp, the device fabrication was substantially involving just a single-step process of imprint followed by polymer spin-coating. The achieved maximum reflection was higher than 25 dB at the center wavelength of 1569 nm. And the 3-dB bandwidth was 0.8 nm for the device length of 1.5 cm.

This paper reports a preliminary experimental investigation and characterization of an optical fiber-based submersion sensor system for applications in water flooding and leakage. The sensor system comprises a multi-mode fiber spliced with fiber Bragg grating and an intensity-based interrogator. Submersion tests were conducted in water-air and Glycerin-air environments. By the refractive index of the fiber-probe surrounding materials, the reflectance and the detecting power level is determined. When the probe is dipped into the water, the optical output power dramatically decreases from -7.5dBm to -17.5dBm. But, the center of Bragg wavelength is not affected in spite of external material changes. Temporal response characteristics of the sensor system is investigated to verify the real-time reaction. When the probe is immersed into the liquid, there is no transition time.

This paper demonstrates a comparison of linear and nonlinear analyses for thermo-optic effects of optical temperature sensor based on the etched silica-based planar waveguide Bragg grating. Topics include theoretical analyses and experiment of the etched planar waveguide Bragg grating optical temperature sensor, Theoretical models with nonlinear than linear temperature effect for the grating response based on waveguide and plate deformation theories agree with experiments to within acceptable tolerance.

In this study, a finite element model is employed to simulate the diffraction of waves caused by a change of water depths. The model is firstly applied to the estimation of reflection coefficients of monochromatic waves over a sinusoidally varying topography. Predicted coefficients are compared with those of the eigenfunction expansion method and laboratory measurements. A good agreement is observed. The model is then used to investigate effects of heights of bottom topography and number of ripples on variation of reflection coefficients of monocromatic water waves.
