  • This study focuses on investigating the impact of the spectral linewidth of a seed laser in a master-oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) configuration on stimulated Brillouin scattering and the beam quality of the output diffracted by a grating. To conduct the study, a distributed feedback (DFB) laser is modulated in a pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) and amplified by a two-stage Yb-doped fiber amplifier to achieve an output power of over 1 kW. The spectral linewidth of the seed laser is systematically varied from 1 to 12 GHz in the frequency domain by varying the PRBS modulation parameters. The experimental results reveal a tradeoff between suppressing stimulated Brillouin scattering and enhancing beam quality with increased spectral linewidth. Therefore, the study provides valuable insights into optimizing spectral beam combining to achieve high beam quality and scalable power upgrade in fiber lasers.

  • Low level laser has various therapy effects. This paper performed the basic study for fabricating the low level laser therapy apparatus, and one of the goals of this paper was to make this apparatus used handily. The apparatus has been fabricated using the laser diode and microprocessor unit. The apparatus used a 660nm Laser diode for blood stream improvement and was designed for a pulse width modulation type to increase stimulation effects. In result, we could get the light power of 660nm wavelength and the 1~10Hz irradiation frequency could be controlled stably.

  • Chaotic states of a low-frequency modulating C.W .Co2 laser beam is observed. The output behaviors appear quasi-periodicity and chaotic states when the laser beam is modulated from 100Hz to 1000Hz by using an intracavity chopper. And the output characteristics of the laser beam show a route to chaos as increasing input power when the modulation speed is 500Hz.

  • CuCl, KDP 결정체를 이용한 지그재그형 진헹파 전기광학적 레이저 변조기에 대해 자세히 해석했다. 변조기와 크기와 대역폭은 변조용 결정체의 광학적 특성및 M/W유전특성에 의해 결정됨을 알수 있다. 더욱 광손실과 M/W손실의 영향, 입사각, 회절등의 영향을 규명했고 최적 설계법을 제시했다. 중요한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) CuCl, KDP로 10(GHz)이상의 대역폭에서 3(watt)이하의 변조전력으로 50%변조를 얻었다. (2) 변조주파수 한계의 상한은 레이저 빔폭에 의한 차단주파수로 인해 제한된다. A detailed analysis has been carried out of a zigzag traveling wave electro-optic laser modulator usin3 CuCl, KDP Crystal. The inclusion of such practical factors as M/W and optical loss results in an optimum design in which modulator dimensions and bandwidth limitation are uniquely determined by optical and M/W dielectic properties of modulating crystal. The main conclusion of the analysis are: (1) CuCl, KDP may be used to produce 50% modulation over bandwidth of 10(GHz) with less than (watt) of modulating power. (2) The upper modulation frequency limit is set by a cutoff frequency which arises from finite width of optical beam.

  • Based on the extended nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation, the influences of the filter effect on pulse splitting in a passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser with positive dispersion cavity are investigated theoretically. Numerical results show that, as the bandwidth of the spectral filter decreases, the nonlinear chirp appended to the pulse increases under the combined action of the filter effect of the super-Gaussian spectral filter and the self-phase modulation effect. On further decreasing the bandwidth, the wave breaking of the pulse takes place. In addition, by varying the pump power of the laser or the profile of the spectral filter, the influences of the filter effect on pulse splitting also change accordingly.

  • We report on the static and dynamic characteristics of optically modulated resonant tunneling diode oscillator (RTDO) formed in double-barrier quantum-well structure. Under the illumination of Ti:Sapphire laser, the dc current-voltage (I-V) curves of RTDO shifted towared lower voltages. This characteristic was found to odify the series resistance, negtive differential resistance, capacitance, and the inductance of the RTDO. As a result, the resonant frequency of TRDO centered at 5.302 GHz was found to decrease about 20 MHz under the laser illumination. At a constnat bias voltage, the oscillation frequency decreased linearly as the laser power was increased.

  • 본 연구에서는 opto-Hertzian 효과를 이용하여 고주파 여기식 슬랩형 $CO_2$ 레이저의 출력을 안정화하였다. 슬랩레이저 공진기속의 복사선 세기가 변화할 때 opto-Hertzian 효과에 의해서 공진기의 방전 임피던스도 함께 변화한다. 이에 따라 공진기로 입사 또는 반사되는 고주파 에너지 값도 변화한다. 이 같은 변화를 결합 루프를 통해 검출하여 고주파 성분을 제거한 후 록인 안정기에서 발생시킨 오차신호를 기준신호로 사용하여 슬랩 레이저의 출력을 안정화하였다. 본 방법으로 안정화된 레이저의 출력 변동률이 0.2%로 개선됨을 확인하였다.

  • Fiber dispersion을 이용한 소신호 응답특성으로부터 1.55㎛ strained MQW DFB 레이저의 linewidth enhancement factor α 및 fiber 분산을 측정하였다. 측정된 fiber 분산값은 16.766∼16.786ps/nm/km로 일반적인 단일모드 fiber의 분산값을 잘 나타내었다. 레이저의 실제 동작조건에서 α의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 광출력의 변화에 따른 α의 변화를 측정하였는데 광출력 증가에 따라 α값도 선형적으로 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이 결과로부터 아직까지의 어떤 측정보다도 정확히 non-linear gain에 의한 α의 변화를 설명할 수 있었다.

  • A novel integrated laser, that is, a distributed reflector laser diode integrated with an electroabsorption modulator, is proposed to improve the output efficiency, single-mode stability, and chirp. The proposed laser can be realized using the selective metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy technique (that is, control of the width of the insulating mask), and its fabrication process is almost the same as the conventional electroabsorption modulated laser (EML) process except for the asymmetric coupling coefficient structure along the cavity. For our analysis, an accurate time-domain transfer-matrix-based laser model is developed. Based on this model, we perform steady-state and large-signal analyses. The performances of the proposed laser, such as the output power, extinction ratio, and chirp, are compared with those of the EML. Under 10-Gbps NRZ modulation, we can obtain a 30% higher output power and about 50% lower chirp than the conventional EML. In particular, the simulation results show that the chirp provided by the proposed laser can appear to have a longer wavelength side at the leading edge of the pulse and a shorter wavelength side at the falling edge.
