A Gigabit Ethernet upstream transmission over a WDM-PON employing remotely wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot lasers has been demonstrated. We have successfully demonstrated a WDM transmission of four Gigabit Ethernet channels with 100 GHz channel spacing over 30 km conventional single mode fiber. The measured f-factor was larger than 17.1 dB. We have also investigated the beating noise characteristics of a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser and showed the remotely wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser suppresses the intensity noise of the incoherent light injected, which cause a 6.3 dB SNR improvement compared with that of the conventional spectrum-sliced light source.

A cost-effective dense WDM-PON employing wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot lasers has been demonstrated. We have successfully demonstrated a dense WDM transmission of 4×622 Mb/s upstream signal with 50-GHz channel spacing over 30-km conventional single mode fiber. We have also investigated the heating noise characteristics of a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser and showed the wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser suppresses the intensity noise of the incoherent light injected which enables a dense WDM transmission with a channels spacing of 50 GHz.

A simple dispersion measurement technique has been demonstrated by using a self-seeding laser oscillation of a Fabry-Perot laser through a closed loop. The optical pulses of different wavelengths emitted from the Fabry-Perot laser travel down an optical fiber and the group velocity difference between the pulses due to the chromatic dispersion of the optical fiber is measured through the self-seeding laser oscillation process. The dispersion parameter of the optical fiber is calculated from the measured group velocity difference. The performance of the proposed technique has been confirmed experimentally and the accuracy of dispersion parameter measurement was comparable to that of commercial instruments with expensive equipment and components. The repeatability of the proposed method was better than 0.5%.

Changes of Fabry-Perot fringe patterns in porous silicon during etching process has been investigated. Four porous silicon samples were prepared with four different etch currents: (a) 10 $mA/cm^2$, (b) 30 $mA/cm^2$, (c) 50 $mA/cm^2$, (d) 100 $mA/cm^2$, respectively. Optical characterization of Fabry-Perot fringe pattern on porous silicon was achieved by Ocean optics 2000 spectrometer. The change of Fabry-Perot fringes was monitored and measured during the etching process. Fabry-Perot fringes pattern start to form after couple of minutes. As the etching time increased, more reflection peaks were observed. Its full width at half maximum (FWHM) decreased rapidly when the etching time increased.

Mode missing of Fabry-Perot laser diodes has been modeled using the time domain laser model(TDLM). Fabry-Perot laser diodes that have structure of ripple in the waveguide of active layer or defects inside the active layer were simulated. For accurate simulation, the nonlinear effects were included such as spatial hole burning(SHB) and gain saturation. From the simulation results, it was founded that the defect inside the active layer in laser diodes has a strong influence on mode missing rather than the waveguide ripple. The simulation results are confirmed with the fabricated Fabry-Perot laser diodes by measuring the longitudinal mode spectra as a function of temperature from $25[^{\circ}C]\;to\;85[^{\circ}C]$.

To measure discharge breakdown acoustic signal, Fabry-Perot interferometer fiber optic sensor is used. Fiber optic sensor array can measure the partial discharge acoustic signal caused by defect of power facilities such as power cables, transformers and gas insulation. Fabry-Perot interferometer is selected as an fiber optic sensor array. It is shown that Fabry-Perot fiber optic sensor array detected discharge breakdown acoustic signal, effectively.

We present a structure of a reflective Fabry-Perot etalon with nonlinear Kerr material (Kerr FP etalon), and report the polarization conversion and the optical bistability of polarization conversion. A device proposed has high polarization conversion ratio, 100% or so, and good/broad optical bistablity for input pump intensity.

In this paper, fiber optic sensor using Fabry-Perot interferometer which had benefit of minimize and light-weight was used. The sensor head has 1cm in length, total length of fiber is 9.5 chi and the sensor supported at both ends, simply. To analyze the acoustic characteristic non-directional speaker is used as a sound source. Acoustic applied in lateral direction and detected two signals were compared each other. Below 1㎑ fiber optic sensor has more sensitive than microphone, but in 2㎑ fiber optic sensor has less sensitive than microphone. This characteristic varies to the supporting system of fiber optic sensor. It was confirmed that the Fabry-Perot interferometric sensor detected acoustic signal, effectively. This kind of sensor can be applied to the structural health monitoring field of intellectual structure.

The purposes of spectroscopy in astronomy are to measure the radiation flux of the spectroscopic emission or absorption line and to measure the dynamical parameters of the line profile. In order to use an appropriate instrument for the scientific purpose, we need to understand the characteristics of various spectrometers, e.g., a prism spectrometer, a grating spectrometer, and a Fabry-Perot spectrometer (FPS), which are being used in ultra-violet, optical, and infrared bands. The Fabry­Perot spectrometer is not very popular compared to the grating spectrometer, because of its complex and tricky operations. The Fabry-Perot spectrometer, however, can get a two-dimensional image at one exposure, so we can study radiation mechanisms and dynamical properties of extended sources, e.g., clusters, nebula, and galaxies.
