  • By self-homodyne method we measured the relative phase fluctuation of a light wave. Balanced detection system can eliminate local oscillator excess noise and multiport detection makes it possible ot measure the phase change of the signal beam. Deriving the SB(Signal Beam) and the LO(Local Oscillator) from the same laser source, we find the SB maintain constant phase relative to that of the LO. We have introduced a phase fluctuation in the SB by modulating the beam path of the SB. The measured phase fluctuation agreed well with the predicted one, thereby we confirmed the reliability of our system.

  • The nonlinearity of a laser interferometer usually ranges from sub-nanometer to several manometers. This nonlinearity, which has periodic characteristics, limits the accuracy of the interferometer at the sub-nanometer level. The nonlinearity error of the one-frequency homodyne interferometer with quadrature fringe detection results from a number of factors including polarization mixing by imperfect optical elements, unequal gain of photo detectors, lack of quadrature between two signals and misalignment. In this paper, we described a method for measuring and compensating the nonlinearity of homodyne interferometer using the elliptical fitting technique with least-square method. Experimental results demonstrate that $^\pm$3.5 nm nonlinearity can be reduced to $^\pm$0.2 nm level.

  • In this paper, we developed a frequency-domain diffuse optical imaging (DOI) system for imaging non-invasively using near-infrared (NIR) light sources and detectors. 70-MHz modulation and a homodyne scheme were adopted. By calibration of the coupling coefficients, concurrent detection measurements by 4 detector sets were optimized. We presented experimental reconstruction images of absorption and scattering coefficients in a liquid phantom, located an anomaly in the phantom and determined its optical properties. The images by the multi-channel concurrent detection were improved over the results by single-channel sequential detection. Tomographic slices of absorption and scattering coefficients in the phantom with an anomaly were also presented.

  • Wigner functions and density matrices are computer simulated for various quantum mechanical states of light. Wigner function and density matrices are evaluated by filtered back projection which includes inverse Radon transform from the distribution function of the photocurrents, which are calculated in the balanced homodyne detection scheme. The density matrix is also directly obtained by using the pattern function from the simulated phase independent photocurrent distribution function. ction.

  • We investigate the effect of photon loss on pair production in a hybrid atom-light system. The loss of light field not only affects the generation of photons, but also prevents the generation of atomic collective excitation, although the atoms are not influenced directly. We propose an unbalanced homodyne detection of the number of atomic collective excitation that overcomes the challenge caused by counting uncertainty in practical measurement. In discussion, we show that the intermode correlations and the number correlation is closely related to the initial input state, while the quadrature correlations are independent of the initial state and always exhibit opposite intermode correlations even in the presence of loss.

  • In this study, Real-time estimation and compensation procedure are developed for the laser interferometer. This system is designed with homodyne quadrature-phase detection method using the Laser interferometer. The errors in this system are due to noise, disturbance and undefined model dynamics. DSP(Digital Signal Processor) is applied for real time compensation of these errors. This estimator and compensation is verified with measurement test.

  • In this paper, a transmitter and a receiver using a Gunn diode and SBD was designed and fabricated in X-band. This system detects Doppler shift signal reflected by moving target through the homodyne detection, which is Doppler radar sensor for the measurement of the velocity of moving target. By the experimental results, the oscillating condition of the transmitter was satisfied at about the half wavelength between the supporting post of the Gunn diode in the waveguide and the waveguide short. And using the fabricated Doppler radar sensor, the velocity measurement deviation of moving target was 1.24%.

  • In this paper, a single balanced diode Mixer for the homodyne FMCW radar to detect distance and velocity of a vehicle target is designed and implemented using a microstrip line and two schottky barrier beam lead diodes. This mixer is optimally designed to have less a conversion loss within the 100 MHz bandwidth with a little LO injection power and a higher LO isolation as soon as possible through the embedded electrical length of microsrtrip line placed between the coupler and diode matching, considering together LO matching condition. The measured results show 6 dB of conversion loss, 23 dB LO/RF isolation and 3 dBm of input 1l dB, respectively.

  • Optical fiber sensor is a subject which has been attracted considerable attention in recent years. Detection of sound pressure with optical fibers positioned in the arms of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer is presented in this paper. A fiber length of the order of 150m is wounded is made by hollow cylinder type. To increase the sound signal 3${\times}3$ directional coupler is used. Fiber optic hydrophone is the underwater tank with 2kHz sound source. Finally, it is shown that the fiber optic hydeophone can stably detec 2kHz sound.
