We have constructed and studied a laser system which consists of a multiplex spark gap with 8 couples of spark gaps and a multiple parallel plate capacitor type Blumlein transmission line circuit. In this laser system, the length of the laser tube, the length of the multiplex spark gap and the total thickness of the transmission line circuit are chosen to be 520 mm. The experimental results show that one couple of spark gaps cannot give a uniform and complete lasing through the whole laser tube. All the more, a multiplex spark gap could not perform completely and synchronously. However, a multiplex spark gap in found to contribute to the increase of laser output power and the laser has performed the best when the location is three quarters of the laser tube length.

Laser light which modulated and transmitted through one-meter water bath and one-kilometer transmission distances in atmospheric media is detected by method of direct photo-detection. Also, it is analyzed as a square law detection and the experimental apparatus are designed and constructed. Consequently, in spite that the quantitative analysis remains, the availability of coherent optical communication is understood. The average attenuation with the conditions of weather is about -25dB, and the average attenuation coefficient of water is about 0.4(m-1).

In this paper, we implemented a surveillance system for the power transmission line protection from heavy-duty fender-bender. Laser scanning technology was applied for system design. It was analyzed detailed functions for designed system. Measured detection rate and error rate that are monitoring parameters for both studied system and conventional system were 100%, 0% and 95.8%, 2.1%, respectively. Measurement showed that studied system is almost perfect and better than conventional system. Because this system provides the information to frontline workers with managers of heavy equipments that have possibility of accident, it can be applied to surveillance system for the transmission line protection.

The PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) is a sensor for detecting the position of incident light. Because of its various advantages, it is used for position and angle sensing, optical range finders, laser displacement sensing, and etc. In the previous study of the position finding system, the laser tracking robot is developed. Small data rate and unidirectionality is the characteristics of data communication both DSP-based pan/tilt control board and the robot. If we can transmit data to the target using PSD sensor and laser diode module, there is no need for communication devices such as the bluetooth and wireless module. For this reason, this paper presents the new method for data transmission. Transmit data using RS-232 is modulated by a VTF(Voltage To Frequency) converter The laser diode module transmits the modulated data. And then the PSD sensor receive that data. Demodulation process is accomplished by the system which is consisted with trans-impedance amplifier, FTV(Frequency To Voltage) converter, and etc.

Using THz time-domain spectroscopy, we study plasmonic band gaps in periodic metal arrays of slits. Femtosecnd machining system guarantees good quality sub millimeter structures for THz spectroscopy. Fabry-Perot effect enhances the transmission when the two resonances cross but does not alter the surface plasmon peak positions.

We demonstrate a cost effective broadcast signal transmission at 1.25-Gb/s with 100 GHz channel spacing based on a broadband light source (BLS) for a wavelength division multiplexing-passive optical network (WDM-PON). The BLS is implemented by using mutually injected Fabry-Perot laser diodes (MI F-P LDs). The error-free transmission without a forward error correction (FEC) is achieved by its low relative intensity noise (RIN). The number of usable modes is determined by RIN and/or extinction ratio (ER) in the spectrum sliced light output.

The responses of human pulp fibroblastic cells to Ga-As Semi-Conductor-Dens-Bio Laser (Frequency: 5 Hz~10,000 Hz Model: SD-101A RCA, U.SA)) were examined in vitro using pulp fibroblastic cells obtained from the pulp tissue of human tooth. The mitogenic effect of soft laser was assessed by measuring the MTT assay. The morphologic effect for soft laser showed under the scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The results as follows; 1. The mitogenic response of the soft laser was not observed until 4th time of radiation, while the mitogenic response at 4th time increased mitogenic effect by as much as 1.7 fold compared to the control value. 2. The mitogenic response of the soft laser on pulp fibroblast differ from the mitogenic response on other fibroblasts. 3. In scanning electron microscopic study, The microvilli of cell surface increased gradually with width and length after laser radiation, it demonstrate that development of microvilli have close connection with differentiation of cells. 4. Under the transmission electron microscope, The laser-treated cells maintained their elongated shape and a high degree of cellular polarization. The large cell body containing a well developed Golgi complex, a large number of profiles of rough endoplasmic reticulum, and great numbers of mitochondria. 5. The laser-treated cells maintained the long straight bundles of closely apposed microfilaments or individual filaments forming a cross-linked network. These findings suggest that the laser may have important roles in promotion of pulp healing and consequently may be useful for clinical application in pulp regenerative procedures.

In this paper, we show a simultaneous transmission of underwater optical wireless power transfer and underwater optical wireless communication. A laser diode is used for electric-to-optic conversion at the transmitter and a solar cell is used for optic-to-electric conversion at the receiver. We optimized the transmitter and receiver for the best performance. The laser diode is a 100-mW laser diode and showed a conversion efficiency of 18.5%. The experimental results showed a 0.33-% DC-to-DC underwater power transfer efficiency at 5 m and a data rate of 100 kbps at 1 m.

A novel design for a Fresnel lens for a solar end-pumped laser is demonstrated in this paper. The new hybrid Fresnel lens includes two parts, inner and outer. The inner part is a twice-total-internal-reflection and vertical-transmission lens. The outer part is a once-total-reflection and vertical-transmission lens. The radius of the Fresnel lens is 600 mm, and its focal length is 750 mm. The concentrating performance of the Fresnel lens is examined using TracePro. The results show that the concentration efficiency has been greatly improved. The total concentration efficiency of the hybrid Fresnel lens reaches 73.2% when the radius of the laser rod is 3 mm. This design can simplify the concentration system of a solar end-pumped solid-state laser.
