In this paper, a measurement method to obtain the optical properties of a liquid base on a side-polished single mode fiber was proposed and demonstrated. The device showed periodic resonance coupling against wavelengths. The refractive index and dispersion characteristics of a liquid were calculated by use of the spacings of periodic resonance wavelengths of the device. The thermo-optic coefficient of the liquid was obtained by monitering the shift of resonance wavelengths of the devices with change of environmental temperature.

A multi-branch thermo-optic switch has a problem that driving powers in the switching states are different from each other; the power consumption for the inner output port is more than twice as large as that form the outer output port. In this pater, to solve this problem unequal width heaters and the waveguide structure with a thin overcladding layer are proposed in a four-branch thermo-optic switch. The proposed structure is fabricated with the polymer materials with high index difference, Teflon and polyimides. The fabricated device was measured at the wavelength of 1550 nm. The measured characteristics exhibit the smaller difference in the power consumption between the switching states and the driving power les than the previous four-branch thermo-optic switch with equal width heaters. As for the device performance, the crosstalk is better than - 16 dB at about 310 ~ 390 mW, the insertion loss is 4.7 dB, and the switching time is less than 1 ms.

The design and analysis of a novel photonic crystal electro-optic modulator are presented in this paper. The device incorporates an electro-optic (EO) polymer slot waveguide into the center of a silicon photonic crystal waveguide. In this device, strong optical confinement in the EO polymer core and small group velocity from the photonic crystal structure provide a surprise enhancement of the EO effect.

Distributed fiber-optic acoustic·vibration sensing technology is becoming increasingly popular in many industrial and academic areas such as in securing large edifices, exploring underground seismic activity, monitoring oil well/reservoir, etc. Long-range perimeter intrusion detection exemplifies an application that not only detects intrusion, but also pinpoints where it happens and recognizes kinds of threats made along the perimeter where a single fiber cable was installed. In this study, we developed a distributed fiber-optic sensing device that measures a distributed acoustic·vibration signature (pattern) for intrusion detection. In addition, we demontrate the proposed deep learning algorithm and how it classifies various intrusion events. We evaluated the sensing device and deep learning algorithm in a practical testbed setup. The evaluation results confirm that the developed system is a promising intrusion detection system for long-distance and seamless recognition requirements.

Optical fiber temperature sensor, using resonance wavelength shifting of single mode fiber-to-planar waveguide coupler by heat, was fabricated. Thermo-optic polymers, have large change of refractive index due to heat, were used for planar waveguide. The device fabrication procedure including fiber polishing steps was illustrated and the device structure with independent polarization was demonstrated experimentally. The resonance wavelength difference of fabricated device was less than 2nm. The resonance wavelength shifting owing to temperature variation, from room temperature($24^{\circ}C$) to $90^{\circ}C$, was showed $-0.54nm/^{\circ}C$, $-3nm/^{\circ}C$.

We have a plan to design a controller for electron beam manufacturing system. At first, we designed a controller for SEM. The controller consists of five parts (power source, beam controller, scanning controller, optic controller and main controller). Beam controller supplies pulse wave for generating high voltage and can monitor the status of high voltage instrument through emission current. Optic controller controls focus, spot size and image shift. Main controller transmits variables from operating program to each part and monitors the status of peripheral device.

We have studied electrode-optic characteristics of in-plane switching (IPS) of liquid crystal director driven by an oblique electric field. Because the conventional IPS mode does not have an electrode on top substrate, it shows not only slow response time due to weak electric field but also slow discharging problem when electrostatic field is generated after fabricating the cell. To solve these problems, we have formed additional electrode including dielectric layer in the inner part of the cell on top substrate and studied electrode-optic characteristics of the new device.

Electro-optic characteristics of liquid crystal display using fringe field switching(FFS) device depend on many parameters such as cell retardation, electrode structure, rubbing angle, cell gap and dielectric anisotropy. In this paper, the light efficiency of FFS mode will be analyzed to confirm the electro-optic characteristics according to positive dielectric anisotropy such as transmittance, operating voltage and response time.

A high sensitivity fiber optic temperature sensor based on a side-polished fiber (SPF) coupled to a tapered multimode overlay waveguide (MMOW) is proposed and studied. Both tapered and non-tapered MMOW were considered to study the effect of tapering of MMOW on the characteristics of the device and to investigate the criticality of the uniformity of the multimode overlay waveguide over the SPF. Present study shows that tapering of the MMOW can be used to tune the desired wavelength range without any loss in the sensitivity. Sensitivity up to 9 nm/$^{\circ}C$ within the temperature range of 25 to $100^{\circ}C$ can be achieved with the proposed sensor, almost 6 times higher compared even to state-of-the-art high-sensitivity grating-based fiber optic temperature sensors.

Gas/liquid two-phase ejector is a device without moving parts, in which liquid is used to drive gas of a low-pressure source. In this paper, the hydrodynamic characteristics of a vertical down type two-phase ejector were studied using an air-water loop system. Entrained air flow rates were measured with inlet and outlet pressures of the ejector with varying water flow rate. Homogeneous bubbly flows in the discharge pipe were confirmed by the high speed flow visualization method. Quantitative measurements of void fraction were made using a newly developed fiber optic probe system.
