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 object of this paper is to verify possible to monitor the deformation of cable in the tensegrity structure. Also, always monitoring system of tensegrity structure using Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor is described. We carry out experiments with measuring deformation of cable in the tensegrity structure based on loading conditions. In the result of experiment, the Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors shows accurate response to the loading conditions. Therefore, we can make sure the possibility of Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor in health monitoring of the cable structure like tensegrity structure.

In this study, Bragg reflector was formed as tungsten(W) and $SiO_2$ deposited by RF magnetron sputtering according to variable conditions of RF power and working pressure to apply to the SMR type FBAR device, one of the next generation mobile communication devices. The micro-structural properties such as a crystal orientation, roughness and micro- structure were measured by XRD, AFM and SEM and the best condition of Bragg reflector was elicited with analyzing that results of the thin films about each conditions. Finally, FBAR device was fabricated with applying the Bragg reflector was formed on the best condition and measured the resonance properties and compared other research and considered it.

A novel optical coupling filter with finite-thickness metal-strip gratings printed on optical planar dielectric slabs is proposed, and Bragg conditions of the device are rigorously evaluated by using Modal Transmission-Line Theory (MTLT). The numerical results reveal that the guiding structures have filtering properties due to a leaky-wave stop-band while conventional DFB guiding structures consisted of dielectric gratings depend on a feedback-wave stop-band. Consequently, it shows that the optical coupling titter dependent on the leaky-wave filtering characteristics can be compounded of such optical devices as LD and optical fiber.

In this paper, the effects of various annealing conditions on the resonance characteristics of ZnO-based FBAR devices are compared. Several FBAR device samples were fabricated by using three different annealing methods while one sample remained non-annealed as a reference for comparison. Return loss ($S_11$) could be significantly improved by both Bragg reflector-annealing and/or post-annealing. Especially, the use of the combined annealings resulted in most desirable resonance improvement compared with the Bragg reflector-annealing or post-annealing method alone.

In this paper, we investigated the deposition condition of Bragg reflector formation that will be expected to play an important role in future FBAR device applications. The thin films were deposited using an RF/DC magnetron sputtering technique. The material characteristics such as deposition rates, grain structures and surface roughnesses of the deposited silicon dioxide (SiO$_2$) and tungsten (W) films were investigated for various deposition conditions. As a result, it was found that the deposition condition could significantly affect the material characteristics of the deposited films and also the optimization of the deposition process is essentially important to obtain the desirable Brags reflector structure consisted of high-quality in films.

We studied the effect of $Co^{60}$ gamma-radiation on the fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) by irradiation time of UV Krypton fluoride (KrF) excimer laser among grating processing parameters. The FBGs were fabricated in a different UV laser irradiation time at 30, 60, 90, and 120 seconds using the same commercial Ge-doped silica core fiber (SMF-28e). It was exposed to gamma-radiation up to a high dose of 34.3 kGy at the dose rate of 106 Gy/min, and then it was analyzed radiation effects by measuring the radiation-induced change in the temperature sensitivity coefficient and Bragg wavelength shift. According to the experimental results, We confirmed that the UV laser irradiation period for grating inscription has a highly effect on the radiation sensitivity of the FBGs. The radiation-induced Bragg wavelength shift by the change of laser irradiation conditions showed a difference more than about 50 %.

In this work, We, for the first time, present the effects of the thermal annealing of the W/SiO$_2$ multi-layer quarter wavelength reflectors on the resonant properties of the ZnO-based SMR devices. In order to improve the resonant properties of the SMR devices, we annealed thermally the reflectors formed on a silicon substrate using a RF magnetron sputtering technique. As a result, the resonant properties of the SMR devices were observed to strongly depend on the annealing conditions applied to the reflectors. The SMR devices with the reflectors annealed at 40$0^{\circ}C$/30min showed excellent resonance properties as compared to those with the reflectors non-annealed (as-deposited). The newly proposed simple thermal annealing process will be very useful to more effectively improve the resonant properties of the future SMR devices with W/SiO$_2$ multi-layer quarter wavelength reflectors.
