This study presents reasonable relationships to estimate the deformation based on beam mechanism analysis and TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) data. To declar the length points of co-axial cable installed in civil structure, Nano material ($BaTiO_3$ powders and silver mixture) is used on co-axial cables. From the laboratory test, nano material could make the correct information about attached cable points on beam, and TDR sensor system and Fourier series (data filter) found out the deformation of beam. Therefore it is concluded that the correct deformed information of beam were acquired by Nano-TDR and Fourier filter, they are much more effective to apply at health monitoring system in civil structure compared to conventional TDR or Fiber Optic Sensor (FOS) systems.

The data rate for transmission through fiber-optic cables has increased to 400 Gbps in single-wavelength channels. However, speeds up to 1 Tbps are required now to meet the ever-increasing bandwidth demand driven by the diverse requirements of contemporary applications for high-quality on-demand video streaming, cloud services, various social media, and emerging 5G-enabled applications. Because the data rates of the per-channel optical interfaces depend strongly on the operational speed of the optoelectronic devices used in optical transceivers, ultrahigh-speed photonic devices and components, and eventually, chip-level transmitter and receiver technologies, are essentially required to realize futuristic optical transceivers with data rates of 1 Tbps and beyond. In this paper, we review the recent progress achieved in high-speed optoelectronic devices, such as laser diodes, optical modulators, photodiodes, and the transmitter-receiver optical subassembly for optical transceivers in data centers and in metro/long-haul transmission.

Erbium 첨가 광섬유(EDF) 광원은 출력 특성과 온도에 대한 파장 특성이 우수하여 Sagnac 간섭계의 원리를 이용한 광섬유 자이로스코프(이하 줄여 자이로라 함)에 많이 사용되고 있다. 이득매질인 EDF를 광원 겸 광증폭기로 사용하는 광섬유 증폭기형 광원 (Fiber Amplifier/source : FAS) 방식$^{[l-2]}$ 은 기존의 single-pass 방식$^{[3]}$ 에 비해서 구조가 단순하고 검출광 power가 크다는 장점이 있다. 그런데, 검출광 power가 큰 경우에 자이로의 SNR이 광원의 과잉잡음(excess noise)에 의해서 제한되므로 실제로 자이로의 측정감도는 개선되지 않는 문제점이 있다.$^{[4]}$ Single-pass 방식의 광원을 사용하는 경우, 적절한 신호처리를 통해 자이로 출력신호에 포함된 광원의 과잉잡음의 적정주파수 성분을 소거함으로써 자이로 신호의 SNR을 개선시킨 바 있었다.$^{[5]}$ 그러나, 일반적으로 single-pass 방식의 경우에는 검출광 power가 작아서 자이로의 SNR이 광원의 과잉잡음에 의해서 제한되는 경우는 드물다. 반면에 증폭기형 광원 방식은 자이로로부터 되돌아오는 신호광이 다시 광원으로 입사되어 EDF를 반대 방향으로 진행하는 동안 증폭되기 때문에 충분히 큰 검출광 power를 얻을 수 있다. 따라서, 자이로 신호에 포함된 광원의 과잉잡음이 소거된다면 자이로 신호의 SNR은 크게 개선될 것으로 여겨진다. 이 논문에서는 광섬유 증폭기형 광원 방식(FAS)의 자이로에 대해 위와 같은 신호처리를 이용하여 광인의 과잉잡음의 적정주파수 성분을 소거하는 실험을 하였다.

Recently, design and construction of street tunnels tend to focus on cost reduction and preservation of nature. Accordingly, research is actively being carried out to quickly detect fires when they occur in tunnels, which have partially closed structures. Among such research, fire detection methods using optical fiber sensors have a wide bandwidth and fast transmission speed, while using light as a medium. Therefore, it does not receive electrical interference and there is almost no loss of information during transmission, while also having little noise as well. In relation to this, a fire monitoring system that can accurately detect the location of fires in real time using shape memory alloy and optical cables was developed in this study. In order to verify the developed method, light loss measurement test was conducted according to indoor temperature changes, while also conducting fire simulation tests by installing test beds in common underground zones with different external environments of temperature and distance. Upon carrying out experiments, the fire monitoring system developed in this study was found to be able to detect fires in long distance sections in real time.

In this paper, waveguide analysis was interpreted as an optical waveguide using the feedback perturbation method simple and easy to apply compared to the analysis method, while the other almost identical to the numerical calculation method. In addition, efficient coupling with an optical transmission line of optical fiber and the waveguide form the thin film of different functional elements is required in order to achieve the full optical communication system. However, problems arise, such as the light field (field) and the decrease of the access efficiency due to inconsistency in the distribution characteristics of the connection surface by the difference in size of the cross section thereof when connecting the optical fiber and the waveguide directly to the combination of a thin film. Therefore propose a new type of connector structure to increase the efficiency of the connection when connecting the optical fiber waveguide and the thin film was analyzed by applying a coupled mode theory, the binding efficiency of the modified contactor. And by diffusing Ti on the $LiNbO_3$ substrate and a wide range of applications in the manufacture of integrated optical material made of a current low-loss Ti: $LiNbO_3$ optical waveguide and making the Y-branch waveguide, and the properties were confirmed.

Recently, plastic optical fiber draws a lot of attention as a new transmission medium for local area network (LAN) and home network applications. As PMMA based GI-POF (Graded Index Plastic Optical Fiber) has very low loss at about 500 nm and 650 nm wavelengths, it is very important to have a compact ultra short optical pulse source at these wavelength windows. In this paper, we have investigated detailed characteristics of gain switched laser system by using a commercially available low cost RF devices and an InGaAlP Fabry Perot semiconductor laser operating at 650 nm wavelength. The shortest optical 'pulse obtained was 33 psec with 1 GHz repetition rate. Depending on the DC bias current and the modulation frequency, the FWHM and the pulse energy of the gain switched pulses show 33.3-82.8 psec and 0.97-9.69 pI respectively. Also, the spectral bandwidths for CW and gain switched operations are 0.44 nm and 1.50 nm. We believe that these results are quite useful for high bit rate optical transmission applications with PMMA based plastic optical fibers in addition to estimate properties of ultra fast optical components and electro-optic devices. vices.

Purpose: To report long-term changes in the average retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in 2 patients who had intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection for diabetic papillopathy. Case summary: A 36-year-old patient with diabetes complained of decreased visual acuity (20/200) in the right eye. The fundus examination showed optic disc swelling in both eyes. The average RNFL thickness based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) increased to $278{\mu}m$ and Goldmann perimetry showed nasal visual field defect in the right eye. The IVB was injected into the right eye. Three weeks after the IVB injection, RNFL thickness decreased to $135{\mu}m$ and visual acuity improved to 20/25 in the right eye. However, RNFL thickness increased from 126 to $207{\mu}m$ and visual acuity decreased to 20/32 in the left eye. Thus, IVB was injected into the left eye. In week 3, RNFL thickness decreased to $147{\mu}m$ and visual acuity improved to 20/20 in the left eye. At 12 months after IVB injection, RNFL thickness was $87{\mu}m$ in the right eye and $109{\mu}m$ in the left eye. A 57-year-old patient with diabetes complained of decreased visual acuity (20/200) and showed optic disc swelling in the right eye. The average RNFL thickness increased to $252{\mu}m$ and Goldmann perimetry showed an enlarged blind spot in the right eye. IVB was injected into the right eye. After 3 weeks, RNFL thickness decreased to $136{\mu}m$ and visual acuity improved to 20/70 in the right eye. Six months after IVB injection, RNFL thickness was $83{\mu}m$ in the right eye. Conclusions: Visual acuity progressively improved within 3 weeks and RNFL thickness measured by spectral domain OCT showed progressive thickness reduction in 2 cases of diabetic papillopathy patients who had IVB injections.

Complicated crown-root fracture of permanent incisors cause esthetic, functional, and psychological problems to patients. Therefore, treatment is important and multidisciplinary treatment is required. This case report describes the clinical procedures involved in the treatment of trauma-induced complicated crown-root fractures in the maxillary incisor of two young patients. Conventional root canal treatment and apexification were performed in each patient. To expose the fracture margins to the supragingival level and to reestablish the biologic width, orthodontic extrusions with fixed appliances were performed followed by a retention period. During the retention period, fiber-optic posts and cores were built up and provisional crowns were placed. Finally, ceramic crowns manufactured using a computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system were placed. In both patients, the teeth presented satisfactory functional and esthetic outcomes without relapse. The periodontal tissues were healthy.
