In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel channel-selectable multichannel optical add/drop multiplexer consisting of a sampled fiber grating and tunable fiber Bra99 gratings. The device adds and drops not only single channel, but also any predetermined multiple channels simultaneously with low interchannel crosstalk by wavelength tuning as small as 0.5 nm or less. The interchannel crosstalk better than 27㏈ has been shown experimentally.

코히어런트한 두 기록빔의 간섭에 의해 광굴절 Fe-LiMb $O_3$ 결정 내에 형성된 반사형 부피 격자는 협대역성$^{[l]}$, 고효율, 높은 신호대 잡음비, 역다중성, 재구성성, 다채널화 등과 같은 특성을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 광굴절 부피격자의 이러한 특성을 이용하여 WDM 광통신 시스템에 응용 가능한 역다중화 기법을 제안하고, 광학적으로 구현하였다. (중략)략)

We propose a novel channel-switching transmission filter using segmented chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBG's) each of which has separate transmission bands in the reflection spectrum of the CFBG. The segmented CFBG's are made by using specially designed slits. The separated reflection spectral bands of the segmented CFBG's are controlled by the attached fiber stretchers, and the controlled reflection bands are used to choose the channels independently. Tunability of the transmission spectra is experimentally demonstrated in WDM transmission experiments.

각종 렌즈 및 카메라, 망원경, 현미경 등 다양한 광학계들이 설계 및 개발 되고 있는 시점에서 그 성능을 정확하게 평가하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 광학계의 성능 평가를 위해서는 크게 정성적인 방법과 정량적인 방법으로 나눌 수 있는데, 정성적인 방법에 의한 평가는 분해능 표판이나 주기적인 격자의 상을 스크린 등에 결상시킨 후 사람의 눈을 통해서 한계 분해능을 평가하는 방법이다. 정량적인 방법에 의한 평가는 OTF(Optical Transfer Function)를 측정하거나 설계 자료를 통해 계산해 내는 것이다. (중략)

광통신 시스템에 필요한 여러 가지 광소자들과 광섬유간의 결합손실을 줄이고 결합거리를 향상시키기 위한 연구가 많이 이루어져 왔다. 광섬유의 클래딩 모드를 이용하여 정렬오차를 줄인 광커넥터에 대한 결과가 보고된 바 있다. 그러나, 장주기 광섬유격자를 통하여 여기된 광섬유의 클래딩 모드는 외부환경에 매우 민감하여 외부 접촉에 의한 손실과 공진 파장의 변화 등이 문제로 제시되었다. 본 연구에서는 코어와 통상의 클래딩 사이에 또 하나의 클래딩 층을 갖는 이중 클래딩 구조의 광섬유에 장주기 격자를 만들고, 장주기 격자에 의하여 여기된 여러 클래딩 모드 가운데 광섬유의 코어와 내부 클래딩 층으로만 주로 진행하는 첫 번째 클래딩 모드를 사용하는 광커넥터를 제안한다.

With nonhardening fixer, dichromated bleacher and alcohol drying, the diffraction efficiency of over 71o/c has been achie'{ed for holographic phase gratings in silver halide emulsion. The swollen emulsion of Agfa 8E75 HD film is identified by scanning electron microscope (SEM) after chemical processing. Dichromated bleacher and rapid dehydration using alcohol drying make a strong modulation so that diffraction efficiency is. increased over 20%. The principal characteristic parameters in coupled wave theory are investigated and new modified parameter values are presented by computer simulation. Controlling the emulsion thickness has an important role as a potential source for high diffraction efficiency.ciency.

We demonstrate an ultra-dense wavelength-division- multiplexed (UD-WDM) passive optical network (PON) where 12.5-GHz spaced 1 GbE ${\times}$ 256 optical channels are distributed using 12.5- and 200-GHz arrayed waveguide gratings in series. For the generation of upstream signals, we use reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers. We use two optical fiber amplifiers at the optical line terminal to amplify downstream and upstream channels.

A novel fiber-optic sensor system is suggested in which fiber Bragg grating sensors are demodulated by a wavelength-sweeping fiber laser source and a spectrometer. The spectrometer consists of a diffraction grating and a 512-pixel photo-diode array. The reflected Bragg wavelength information is transformed into spatial intensity distribution on the photo-diode array. The peak locations linearly correspond to the Bragg wavelengths, regardless of the nonlinearities in the wavelength tuning mechanism of the fiber laser. The high power density of the fiber laser enables obtaining high signal-to-noise ratio outputs. The improved demodulation characteristics were experimentally demonstrated with a fiber Bragg grating sensor array with 5 gratings. The sensor outputs were in much more linear fashion compared with the conventional tunable band-pass filter demodulation. Also it showed advantages in signal processing, due to the high level of photo-diode array signals, over the broadband light source system, especially in measurement of fast varying dynamic physical quantities.

We propose a transverse load sensor with reconfigurable measurement accuracy based on a microwave photonic filter in the $K_u$ band, incorporating a polarization-maintaining fiber Bragg grating. A prototype sensor with a reconfigurable measurement accuracy tuning range from 6.09 to 9.56 GHz/(N/mm), and corresponding minimal detectable load range from 0.0167 to 0.0263 N/mm, is experimentally demonstrated. The results illustrate that up to 40% manufacturing error in the grating length can be dynamically calibrated to the same corresponding measurement accuracy for the proposed transverse load sensor, by controlling the semiconductor optical amplifier's injection current in the range of 154 to 419 mA.

In this study, we studied the gamma-radiation effect of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) manufactured by array sensors. The array FBGs were fabricated in a different Bragg wavelength using the same commercial Ge-doped fiber and exposed to gamma-radiation up to a dose of about 100 kGy at the dose rate of 113 Gy/min. It was analyzed radiation effects by measuring the radiation-induced change in the temperature sensitivity coefficient and Bragg wavelength shift after irradiation.
