In this paper, we implemented an optical information security system using computer generated hologram based on the principle of interference and BaTiO$_3$that is photorefractive material. First of all, we would generate binary phase hologram which can reconstruct the original image perfectly, and regard this hologram as the image to be encrypted. And then applying the interference rule to the hologram, encrypted and reference (fkey information) images are generated. In the decrypting process, we can get an interference intensity by interfering the reference image and the encrypted image in the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. and transforming interference intensity information into phase information using LCD(liquid crystal display) and finally recover original image by inverse Fourier transforming the phase information. In this process, the Intensity information generated by interference of two images is very sensitive to external vibrations. So, we get a stable interference using the characteristic of SPPCM(self pumped phase conjugate mirror) of BaTiO$_3$that is photorefractive material. The proposed method has an advantage of double image encryption by encrypting the hologram of the image instead of original image.

In this paper, 8-channel multiplexer with 100GHz channel spacing is fabricated. The 8-channel multiplexer is fabricated by connecting three cascaded Mach Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) of optical fiber type, and each interferometer has the wavelength interval of 100GHz, 200GHz and 400GHz, respectively. furthermore, to acquire uniform insertion loss, it is fabricated by using Wavelength Flatten Coupler (WFC) in which the variation of insertion loss is low. Especially, the variation of wavelength interval in the output is explicitly simulated as a function of optical path difference, and the wavelength coupling process along with cascaded connection is discussed. $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. In summary, The prototype composed by eight cascaded MZI has an insertion loss of 2.1dB, the bandwidth of 0.8nm at 5.5dB point, and channel crosstalk of 25dB Furthermore, the loss dependent on polarization is measured as 0.06dB.

We have studied the generation of an array of dark spatial solitons in a self-deforcusing medium. Unlike a single fundamental dark spatial soliton, we show numerically that the generation of an array of dark spatial solitons from a spatially sinusoidal input beam needs an adiabatic amplification of nonlinear refractive index with the beam propagation distance. In experiment, we establish a Mach-Zehnder interferometer for making the sinusoidal input beam and use a cylindrical lens for the adiabatic amplification. We observe that the dark soliton's dip-width becomes narrower and the background intensity distribution becomes flatter with increasing the nonlinearity.

FMCW LiDAR system with robust target detection capabilities even under adverse operating conditions such as snow, rain, and fog is addressed in this paper. Our focus is primarily on enhancing the performance of FMCW LiDAR by improving the characteristics of the frequency-modulated laser, which directly influence range resolution, coherence length, and maximum measurement range etc. of LiDAR. We describe the utilization of an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder laser interferometer to measure real-time changes of the lasing frequency and to correct frequency modulation errors through an optical phase-locked loop technique. To extend the coherence length of laser, we employ an extended-cavity laser diode as the laser source and implement a laser interferometer with an photonic integrated circuit for miniaturization of optical system. The developed FMCW LiDAR system exhibits a bandwidth of 10.045GHz and a remarkable distance resolution of 0.84mm.

A triplexer based on a silica planar lightwave circuit Mach-Zehnder nterferometer(MZI) is proposed and its characteristics are analyzed through simulations. To separate 1310 nm band and $1480{\sim}1560nm$ band properly, the path length difference of an MZI is set to be the multiple and half of the wavelength 1310 nm and the balance of the directional coupler is optimized in the $1480{\sim}1560nm$ band. The same MZI is additionally cascaded to provide good crosstalk characteristics. The 1490 nm band and 1550 nm band are further separated using additional two stage MZI's. A three-dimensional BPM and transfer matrix method analysis predicts the low crosstalk characteristics and the fabrication-error-tolerance of the proposed triplexer.

The holographic measurement techniques can be applied to various industrial fields such as automobile, airplane, construction, electronics, medical, mechanics and physics. The visualization of fluids is very important in aerodynamics, heat transfer and stress analysis. There are classically optical methods such as shadowgraph, schlieren method, and Mach-Zehnder interferometry for visualizing the fluid flow phenomena. But, it is difficult to understand the continuous state of fluids well in those methods. In this study, the real-time holographic interferometer with high-speed camera is applied to the flow visualization. In addition, collimated laser beam and rotating wedge are used for recording and formation of carrier fringes, respectively.

An numerical and experimental study has been performed on natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal heat exchanger tube with a fin. At s bare tube, by increasing $C_{T}$ (tube conduction parameter), mean Nusselt number and outer wall temperature are apparently increased at $C_{T}$.leq.300, slightly increased at $C_{T}$>300 and they can be represented in an exponential function of $C_{T}$. Natural convection heat transfer characteristics for the tube with a fin at given Rayleigh number are well agreed by those for an isothermal cylinder at a modified Rayleigh number. The local fin Nusselt number of the tube with a downward fin is much higher than that of the tube with an upward fin. The comparisons between numerical and experimental results showed good agreement.reement.

The thickness of a Si3N4 thin film with a 100m nominal thickness was measured by use of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The map of the phase-delay through the thin film was obtained by an interframe intensity-correlation-matrix method that could elliminate phase-shifting errors. After the spatial phase-shifting errors were treated with a least-squares method, the reference to surface of the phase map was estimated. The overall accuracy of the method was found to be 5nm.

Optical sensing techniques have been associated with high sensitivity and precise measurements and attracted considerable attention in recent years. In this paper, two channels TDM(Time Division Multiplexing) fiber-optic hydrophone array for the underwater applications was fabricated and their acoustic characteristics were investigated by using the acoustic water tank. A fiber length of the order of 100m is wounded at the hollow cylinder type aluminum mandrel. An unbalanced interferometer (discrete Mach-Zehnder type) was used. Sound detection performance is tested in the underwater tank with 2kHz continuous sound source. Finally, it is shown that two channels TDM(Time Division Multiplexing) fiber-optic hydrophone array can detect 2kHz sound stably.
