This paper presents integrated polymeric spectrometer module which offers compact size, easily-fabricated structure and low cost. The proposed spectrometer module includes the nano diffraction grating with non-uniform pitch and planar optical waveguide with concave mirror to be fabricated by UV imprint lithography. To increase the reflection efficiency, we designed the nano diffraction grating with triangular profiles. The polymeric planar spectrometer includes a spectral bandwidth of 700 nm, resolution of 10 nm and precision below 5 nm. This polymeric planar spectrometer is well-suited for sensor system.

Spectral Beam Combining (SBC) is used for a high-power fiber laser in order to overcome the power limitation of single fiber laser. In SBC, several laser bwams with different wavelengths are combined to obtain a single-aperture beam by diffraction grating. The combining efficiency is dependent on a linewidth, beam quality and specific wavelength of each beam among others. In this paper, we consider the method of a wavelength monitoring and a feedback control of laser diodes used as seeds of laser beams to obtain optimum combining conditions. In order to measure the wavelengths of multi-beam, we use the high resolution camera and diffraction grating with 1,800l/mm. The experiment results show the possibility of feedback control of a current and temperature of multi-seed laser diodes to obtain optimum wavelengths for SBC.

An innovative system for the alternative continuous wide spectral spatial heterodyne spectrometer (ACWS-SHS) is proposed. The relationship between the ACWS-SHS and the wide spectral spatial heterodyne spectrometer (WS-SHS) at the resolution limit, the spectral range, the grating diffraction efficiency and the interference fringes contrast ratio has been analyzed theoretically. Through the comparison of the theoretical analysis and simulation results, it is found that the two systems for the WS-SHS and the ACWS-SHS have the same resolution limit and spectral range, which are ${\delta}{\sigma}$ and ${\sigma}_{01}$, while in the ACWS-SHS system the critical diffraction efficiency of echelle grating is 68.39% and the critical contrast ratio of interference fringes is 0.4135, which is much better than the performance of the WS-SHS system. Therefore, the ACWS-SHS reduces the high requirements for the precision of equipment and expands the application field of SHS effectively.

The diffraction efficiencies of gratings are affected by the inner structure which is determined by modulation type. CGH (Computer generated Hologram) basically uses the principles of a diffraction grating. As like as the diffraction gratings the patterns recorded in the CGH are different according to modulation methods which result in the performances of the reconstructed images. In this paper, on this fact CGHs are recorded according to sinusoidal and rectangular modulation methods and the characteristics of reconstructed images are analyzed. Also the reconstruction performances of the amplitude and phase, phase-only and binary phase CGH are analyzed.

A modified quantizing method is introduced to teach single layer learning algorithm, which is implemented optically. The proposed optical system consists of input masks, holographic diffraction grating. LCD and CCD camera. The 2 dimensional interconnections between input neurons and output neurons are realized using holographic phase grating, which is fabricated for equal intensity distribution of diffraction orders. The two gray levels of LCD act as binary weights for each interconnection. The weights are compensated according to the learning algorithm in which the amount of weights to be compensated is determined by comparing the output patterns with target patterns. The learning process is iterated until the predetermined conditions are satisfied. Optical experiments are performed for two learning rates, 0.5 and 0.9 and the experimental results show that the proposed system is useful for optical neural networks.

We propose a method that realizes the modified illumination by implementing a binary phase grating at the backside of a photomask. By modeling the relationship between the shape of a grating on the photomask and the light intensity at the pupil plane, we developed a program named MIDAS that finds the optimum grating pattern with a stochastic approach. After applying the program to several examples, we found that the program finds the grating pattern for the modified illumination that we want. By applying the grating at the backside of a photomask, the light efficiency of modified illumination may be improved.

We investigated the formation of 2-dimension hologram grating by means of selective etching characteristic and photo-expansion effect according to photo irradiation on amorphous As-Ge-Se-S thin film. By method of phase holography, we made the 2-dimensional hologram grating by each (S:P) and ($+45^{\circ}:-45^{\circ}$) polarized beam with DPSS laser(532nm) and He-Ne laser(632nm). A recording property was observed at each polarized beam through 2-dimensional hologram surface relief grating. Chalcogenide thin film was etched selectively by NaOH solution after the formation of 1-dimensional diffraction grating. And then etched sample was rotated 90 degree to fabricate 2 dimensional hologram grating. We found that it was observed the formation of 2-dimensional hologram grating by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy).

We have carried out two-beam interference experiments to form holographic gratings on amorphous $MgF_2$/As-Ge-Se-S multi-layer.

In this paper, the theory and experiments on the one-way optical image transmission through optical fiber by using degenerate four wave mixing in BSO single crystal are demonstrated. From the theoretical analysis, the diffraction efficiency of phase conjugate wave in BSO single crystal is greatly dependent on applied electric field intensity, diffraction grating period formed in the crystal and incident beam ratio, those are also in good agreement with the experimental results. Based on the experimental results, we have arranged the typical degenerate four wave mixing system in the optimal conditions (applied electric field, E. = 5kV/cm` diffraction grating period, 3\ulcorner` beam ratio of backward pump wave versus signal wave, 2.7) and realized one-way optical image transmission system through optical fiber using BSO single crystal.

We have investigated about the grating formation of the $a-Se_{75}-Ge_{25}$ chalcogenide thin films. In this study, holographic gratings have been formed by using He-Ne laser(632.8nm) with different polarization states(linear, circular polarization). The diffraction efficiency was obtained by +1st order intensity of the diffracted beam. We have obtained maximum efficiency for Ag-doped thin film. It is observed the difference of the diffraction efficiency with polarization states. S:S-polarized state is shown high efficiency than the other polarization.
