This paper describes an efficient optimal design method for an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) having MMI coupler with flattened transfer function. The objective function is the norm of the difference between calculated and target spectra. To analyze the AWG transfer function, the Fresnel-Kirchhof diffraction formula was employed and the design variable was optical path difference of each array waveguide. The (1+1) Evolution Strategy was applied to an eight-channel coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) AWG as the optimization tool. For obtaining a broadened spectrum, we use a MMI coupler and the variation in optical path difference at each array waveguide changes the shape of the transfer function to obtain the optimal spectrum shape.

Hybrid thin film nanostructures composed of metal nanoparticles (NPs) and self-assembled polymer films with different spatial distributions of NPs were analyzed by optical waveguide spectroscopy (OWS). Specifically, the dielectric constants were calculated using effective medium theory for the incorporation of 1 vol% Au NP into the block copolymer (BCP) films having a cylindrical nanodomain morphology. Three cases were considered: uniform distribution of NPs in the film; selective distribution of NPs only in the cylindrical domains; and segregation of NPs to the center of the cylindrical domains. The optical waveguide spectra derived from the calculated dielectric constants demonstrate the feasibility of experimentally distinguishing the composite nanostructures with different inner morphologies in the hybrid metal NP-BCP nanostructures, by the measurement of the dielectric constants using OWS.

Controllable waveguide of optical vortex solitons is possible by using the rotational characteristics of optical vortices, while the relative phase difference across the soliton profiles can be used to steer the waveguide direction in case of two-dimensional dark solitons. It is important to understand in detail what sources contribute to the rotation of optical vortices to apply optical vortex solitons to the optical switchyard. (omitted)

본 논문에서는 광도파로와 광섬유사이에서 광손실을 줄이기 위한 모드 크기 변환기를 설계하였다. 설계된 모드 크기 변환기는 주기적으로 분리된 테이퍼 광도파로로 구성된 모드 크기 변환기이며, 공정상의 적용이 용이한 수평 테이퍼 구조를 선택하였다. 높이와 폭이 3$\mu\textrm{m}$${\times}$3$\mu\textrm{m}$이며 1.5%실리카 광도파로의 경우 파장이 1550nm 파장에서 최적의 모드 크기 변환기 설계 파라미터는 테이퍼 영역의 길이가 500$\mu\textrm{m}$이고, 분리된 광도파로의 길이는 5$\mu\textrm{m}$이며, 주기의 Duty-Cycle은 0.95, 광도파로와 광섬유의 접속면에서의 폭은 1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$이였다. 이 때 결합손실은 0.33㏈/point로 광섬유와 광도파로를 직접 연결할 때 보다 1.27 ㏈/point가 감소하였다.

본 연구는 미래의 무선 및 유비쿼터스 통신을 위한 광/밀리미터파 신호의 직접 변환(생성) 실험을 50-60 GHz 범위에서 광 기술을 응용하여 성공적으로 수행하였다. 이 실험에서 22.5mW의 광신호가 광 도파로 내에 입사되었고, 밀리미터파 도파관 내부로 방사된 밀리미터파 신호는 밀리미터파 검출기에 의해 검출되었다. 밀리미터파 신호의 스펙트럼 선폭은 1 KHz이하를 나타냈다. 또, 50-60GHz 범위에서, 밀리미터파 신호의 Power 피크치 변위가 1.2dBm 이하인 이득특성을 나타냈다.

The use of soft-lithography instead of standard photolithography and dry etching technologies is attractive because inexpensive optical device can be realized. Polymerization using multi-photon absorption of materials is also a good method for optical waveguide fabrication. Laser induced self-writing technology of optical waveguide is also very simple and attractive. Using these processes, we can fabricate and interconnect optical circuits at once. In this presentation, several simple fabrication methods will be introduced. New optical loss evaluation method for polymer optical waveguides will also be presented

We report some methods for measuring a LiNbO$_3$ optical phase modulator bandwidth. Since Mach-Zehnder waveguide type, one of methods for modulation bandwidth measurement, is comparatively simple and useful, it was adapted in this work. In order to confirm this method, the waveguide of single and Mach-Zehnder type were fabricated on the same wafer. The Mach-Zehnder interferometric waveguide and the single channel waveguide were used for the measurement of the phase modulator's driving voltage and bandwidth for device fabrications, respectively. Ti-860$\AA$ in-diffusion was achieved in a wet-bubbling oxygen environment at 105$0^{\circ}C$/8hours. LINbO$_3$ internal chips were pigtailed to PMF(polarization maintaining fiber)/SMF(single mode fiber) using an epoxy curing technique. Examined were optical properties such as an insertion loss, propagation loss and mode size, and the loss mechanism of optical coupling between an optical fiber and a waveguide was considered.

본 논문에서는 출력 도파로의 한쪽 폭을 변화 시켜 다양한 광파워 분리비를 갖는 비대칭형 Y-분리기를 BK7 유리에 $Ag^+-Na^+$이온교환법을 이용하여 제작하였다. FD-BPM을 이용하여 한쪽 출력 도파로의 폭에 따라 다양한 출력 파위를 얻을 수 있는 비대칭형의 Y-분리기의 도파특성을 살펴보았다. 그리고 이온교환에 의해 형성된 채널형 도파로의 굴절률 분포를 결정하고 채널형 도파로를 제작하여 도파특성도 살펴보았다. 비대칭형 Y-분리기는 한 쪽 도파로의 폭을 $4{\mu}m$에서 $6{\mu}m$까지 변화시키면서 제작하고 특성을 파악하였다.
