In order to obtain the basic data concerning the optimal lasing conditions in using Nd:YAG laser as an adjunctive modality of periodontal therapy of root planing without irreversible structural deterioration of cervical cementum, the author selected 36 human teeth having no cervical abrasion and caries (; 12 anteriors, 12 premolars. 12 molars) extracted due to periodontal diseases, and divided them into 4 groups as Group I, II, III and IV (; each group of 3 anteriors, 3 premolars, 3 molars), and prepared a cementum specimen with thickness of $1.0mm{\pm}0.2mm$ sectioned longitudinally at the middle of mesio-distal thickness (; Group I) or horizontally at 1mm-2mm below the cemento-enamel junction (; Group II, III, IV) from each tooth of each group by low speed diamond wheel saw, and treated them with 0.5 M ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (; EDTA, pH=7.4) for 2 minutes for elimination of remnants during tooth-sectioning. And the author applied the laser energy from a fiberoptic delivered, free running, pulsed Nd:YAG laser (; wavelength 1064nm. pulse duration $120{\mu}sec$, fiber diameter $320{{\mu}m}$) to cementum surfaces in triplicates of one experiment under the following lasing conditions: 1. stationary mode of fiber in contact to cementum surfaces without air-spray (; Group I )/with air-spray (; Group II), 2. unidirectional moving mode of fiber in contact to cementum surfaces under speed of 3mm-4mm/sec without air-spray (; Group III)/with air-spray (; Group IV), 3. energy per pulse (mJ/pulse) [; energy density ($J/cm^{2}$)] in order of 1.0W/10Hz (100J/pulse); $124J/cm^{2}$, 0.5W/10Hz (50mJ/pulse); $62J/cm^{2}$, 0.4W/10Hz (40mJ/pulse); $50J/cm^{2}$, 0.3W/10Hz (30mJ/pulse); $37J/cm^{2}$, 4. exposure time of 1 second. And the author applied the platinum coating on surfaces of cementum specimens, and evaluated the characteristics of ultrastructural change on surfaces of cementum using the scanning electron microscopy. In general the ultrastructural loss of cervical cementum irradiated under the same lasing condition of laser energy density occurred least in specimens of Group IV. And especially, the ultrastructural loss of cervical cementum irradiated under the laser energy density of $37J/cm^{2}$ almost did not occur in specimens of Group IV. Therefore, it is considered that the pulsed Nd:YAG laser should be applied with the lasing conditions of unidirectional moving mode of fiber in contact to cementum surfaces under speed of 3mm-4mm/sec with air-spray and of laser energy density within $37J/cm^{2}$ as an adjunctive modality of periodontal therapy of root planing without irreversible structural deterioration of cervical cementum.

본 논문에서는 사냑 루프 필터와 광섬유 격자 기반의 파장가변 궤환 레이저를 제안하고 있다. 다중파장을 제공하기 위하여 복굴절을 이용한 사냑 루프를 적용하였고 0.33nm의 인접 채널간격을 가지도록 제작하였다. 광섬유 격자의 열 광학 효과에 의한 파장가변을 유도하기 위하여 니크롬선을 격자위에 감았다. 파장가변과 분리에 대한 특성을 측정하기 위하여 길이가 다른 니크롬선으로 두 종류의 광섬유 격자 소자를 제작하였으며, 열 저항으로 파장가변이 되게 하였다. 광섬유격자의 반사파장이 사냑루프 다중파장의 특정 파장과 일치하면 모드 잠김현상에 의해서 공진하고 발진하게 된다. 공진파장의 이동도는 1.75pm/mW이다. 이 시스템은 전력 시스템의 전력 변동을 모니터링하는 분야에 적용할 수 있다.

본 논문에서는 금이 증착된 측면연마 광섬유를 $2{\mu}m$ 대역 편광기로 이용하여 Thulium/Holmium 첨가 광섬유 기반 링 캐비티로부터 모드 잠금 레이저를 구현할 수 있음을 실험적으로 보였다. 모드 잠금 현상은 광섬유로 구성된 공진기 내부에서 진행하는 빔이 겪는 Nonlinear Polarization Rotation 현상에 기반하여 삽입된 금 증착 측면연마 광섬유에서 발생되는 Nonlinear Transmission 반응에 의해 유도되었다. 또한 공진기로부터 발생되는 출력 $1.93{\mu}m$ 파장의 광펄스를 Thulium/Holmium 첨가 광섬유 증폭기를 통과시켜 Higher Order Soliton Effect를 통해 압축시킴으로써 최대 첨두 출력 ~6.7 kW를 갖는 펄스폭 ~558 fs의 고출력 펨토초 펄스를 얻을 수 있음을 실험적으로 보였다.

A single-and dual-wavelength switchable polarized Yb-doped double-clad fiber laser around 1120 nm based on a pair of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) is demonstrated. The polarization-maintaining (PM) linear cavity is composed of a double clad PM Yb-doped fiber (YDF) and a pair of PM FBGs. The laser can operate in stable dual-wavelength or wavelength-switching modes due to the polarization hole burning (PHB) and the spatial hole burning (SHB) enhanced by the PM linear cavity. In dual-wavelength operation, the two orthogonally polarized wavelengths are centered at 1118.912 nm and 1119.152 nm, with an interval of 0.24 nm and a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 35 dB. The maximum output power is 14.67 W when the launched LD pump is 24 W corresponding to an optical efficiency of 61.1%. The lasing lines switchover may be realized by adjusting the polarization controller (PC) fitted in the cavity. The two single-wavelengths are 1118.912 nm and 1119.152 nm. When the injected LD pump is 24 W, the highest output powers are 7.68 W and 8.64 W corresponding to optical efficiencies of 32% and 36% respectively. The spectral linewidth of the lasing lines are 0.075 nm and 0.07 nm, and the average numerical values of PER aredB and 19.9 dB, respectively.

Titanium for dental implant application has the superior properties of biocompatibility, specific strength, and corrosion resistance. However, it is extremely difficult to find a suitable surface treatment method for sufficient osseointegration with biological tissue/bone cell and implant surface. Surface treatment technology using laser has been researched as the way to increase surface area of implant. In this study, to develop the surface treatment process with improved adhesion between implant and bone cell at the same time for superior biocompatibility, pulsed laser beam was overlapped continuously for scribed surface morphology and determination of friction coefficient. As the results, surface area and friction coefficient was increased over 2 times by the comparison with sand blasting, which is used for the conventional method. In this time, the optimal condition for laser beam power and beam irradiation speed was 13 watt and 50 mm/sec, respectively.

반도체 레이저의 직접 변조 시에 발생하는 레이저의 주파수 처핑(chirping) 현상을 감소시켜 직접 변조를 하는 레이저 다이오드의 변조 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 이중 전극을 가진 구조의 반도체 레이저를 제안하였다. 이중 전극 레이저는 일반적인 측면 방출형 반도체 레이저와 달리 하나의 광이득 매질에 대하여 전기적으로 전극을 분리한 구조이다. 본 논문에서는 이중 전극 구조의 반도체 레이저를 이용하여 직접 변조시 발생하는 처핑(chirping)과 이에 따른 광신호의 선폭을 감소시킴으로써 단일 전극 구조의 레이저 다이오드와 비교하여 10-Gbps NRZ(non-return-to zero) 신호의 80-km 광전송에 대하여 2.5 dB의 광링크 수신감도 향상을 달성하였다.

This study was to quantify fiber distributions in thickness direction of kenaf handsheets as a fiber distribution index (FDI) and to analyze the relationship between FDI and the handsheet properties. The images of fiber distribution in z-direction were obtained by Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM) and analyzed by image analysis technique. The proposed FDI had a good correlation with high R2 vlaues with various properties of paper, such as apparent density, scattering coefficient , burst index, tear index, tensile index, and folding endurance. The proposed FDI was shown as a good index to quantify paper properties.

The optical fibers are an interesting medium for effective tunable optical frequency conversion in the spectral range of UV, Visible, and near-IR through the nonlinear processes. A number of papers for developing the wideband and flat-gain amplifier for the WDM system applications through the combination of EDFA or thulium-doped fluoride fiber amplifier and Raman amplifier, are reported$^{(1)}$ . Even though a variety of papers related to Raman amplifications are published, the amplification with the feedback of the residual pump is not investigated yet. Accordingly, in this paper, we report the characteristics of forward Raman amplification by the simple and double-pass fiber Raman configuration through the feedback of residual pump beam. (omitted)
