  • The UV laser trimming can be useful to have an accurate performance specification of the passive waveguide devices. In order to measure the change of the refractive index of polymer overclad layer under the irradiation of uv light in a high precision Bragg grating is fabricated on the silica core of planar waveguide and the corresponding transmittance spectrum was analyzed. An effective refractive index change of $4.7x10^{-5}$ was obtained for a straight waveguide when its $60{\mu}m$-thick overclad was irradiated by UV laser pulses of its total fluence 24 $J/cm^2$.

  • Glass forming ranges in the AlF3-(Mg+Sr+Ba)F2-P2O5 system are studied and ultraviolet transmission, infrared transmission, coefficient of refractive index, thermal expansion coefficient, density and chemical durability of the glasses are determined. Glass forming range is restricted MgF2 0-10wt%, SrF2 10-50wt%, BaF2 10-40wt% in this system. While BaF2 is substituted by SrF2, density and refractive index are decreased, micro hardness and thermal expansion coefficient are increased according to the increasing of SrF2 at fixed MgF2 contents. These samples represent high transmittance(93%) from 400nm to 3800nm and chemical durability of these samples show less than 0.3mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$$.$hy by weightloss.

  • ZnO nanoparticles and vinyl pyridine were added to the mixture of MMA (methyl methacrylate), HEMA (2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) and NVP (N-vinylpyrrolidone) in a mould at various concentrations. Cross-linker EGDMA (ethyleneglycoldimethacrylate) and AIBN (azobisisobutyronitrile) initiator were finally added to the mixture and then heated at $80^{\circ}C$ for 60 min to prepare high-performance hydrogel ophthalmic lens. The physical properties of the hydrogel ophthalmic material were investigated by measuring the average value of refractive index, water content and optical transmittance. The refractive index of 1.429~1.450, water content of 34~41%, and visible transmittance of 78~90% were obtained. The material is possibly used to manufacture UV-block hydrogel contact lens.

  • This paper presents mainly a procedure to get the mathematical form of the manufactured aspherical lens. Generally Schulz formula describes the aspherical lens profile. Therefore, the base curvature, conic constant. and high-order polynomial coefficient should be set to get the approximated design equation. To find the best-approximated aspherical form, lens profile is measured by a commercial stylus profiler, which has a sub-micrometer measurement resolution. The optimization tool is based on the minimization of the root mean square of error sum to get the estimated aspherical surface equation from the scanned aspherical profile. Error minimization step uses the Nelder-Mead simplex (direct search) method. The result of the lens refractive power measurement shows the experimental consistency with the curvature distribution of the best-approximated aspherical surface equation

  • $ZnS/Na_3AlF_6$ multi-layer thin film were produced by evaporation system. ZnS were selected as a high refractive index material and $Na_3AlF_6$ were selected as low refractive index material. Optical properties including color effect were systematically studied in terms of different optical thickness by spectrophotometer. In oder to compare with experimental data, the Essential Macleod Program(EMP) was adopted that simulation program. The thin film consisting of $ZnS/Na_3AlF_6$ multi-layer show the wave length of $530{\sim}600nm$, typically color range between purple, blue, green. It was confirmed that this experimental result was well matched with simulation data.

  • Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon of different characteristics were formed to determine their optical constants in the visible wavelength range using a periodic square wave current between low and high current densities. The surface and cross-sectional SEM images of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon were obtained using a cold field emission scanning electron microscope. The surface image of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon indicates that the distributions of pores are even. The cross-sectional image illustrates that the multilayer of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibits a depth of few microns and applying of square current density during the etching process results two distinct refractive indices in the contrast. Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibited a porosity depth profile that related directly to the current-time profile used in etch. Its free-standing film was obtained by applying an electro-polishing current.

  • A single component of $Sb_2O_3$ glass has been obtained by a rapid quenching method in vacuum. The linear refractive indices were measured as a function of wavelength from 500 nm to 1060 nm. The refractive index at $n_{3{\omega}}$/(633 nm) was as high as 2.00. The optical band gap was estimated as 3.38 eV from the optical absorption spectrum. The third-order nonlinear optical intensity was determined by the third harmonic generation (THG) method. The $\chi^{(3)}$value was as high as $5.68{\times}10^{-13}$esu, about 20 times larger than that of $SiO_2$ glass.
