The scattered light pattern from a machined surface generally contains much information concerning the surface roughness. The light pattern can be acquired by optical system and analyzed by statistical method. This kind of surface roughness measurement system can be easily adopted on the machine measurement. But the fully assembled system is too complex to implement on small systems using micro-controller. This study proposes the idea of reducing the number of optical components by removing screen and examines image processing of a light pattern to minimize the negative result of incomplete optical system. And the Gaussian blur filtering is concluded to be the best method of proposed measurement system. Furthermore light intensity variation of image pattern can be treated as a signal, therefore FIR filtering gives the similar result of Gaussian blur effect.

The influence of electron irradiation energy(eV) on the structural, electrical and optical properties of ITO/ZnO bi-layered films prepared with RF magnetron sputtering has been investigated. The ITO/ZnO show the lowest resistivity of $2.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$. The optical transmittance in a visible wave length region also increased with the electron irradiation energy. The film irradiated at 900 eV shows 82---- of optical transmittance in this study. By comparison of figure of merit, it was observed the optical transmittance and electrical resistivity of the films were dependent on the electron irradiation energy and optoelectrical performance of ITO/ZnO film is improved with electron irradiation.

A novel multi-oxide layer structure for vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) structures is proposed to achieve higher single mode output power. The structure has four oxide layers with different aperture sizes and thicknesses. The oxide layer thicknesses are optimized simultaneously to reach the highest single mode output power. A heuristic method is proposed for plotting the influence of these variable changes on the operation of optical output power. A comprehensive optical-electrical thermal-gain self-consistent VCSEL model is used to simulate the continuous-wave operation of the multi-layer oxide VCSELs. A comparison between optimized VCSELs with different structures is presented. The results show that by using multi-oxide layers with different thicknesses, higher single-mode optical output power could be achieved in comparison with multi-oxide layer structures with the same thicknesses.

We propose a simple in-line variable optical attenuator (VOA) based on the bending effect of tapered single mode fibers. The influence of the taper structure and the reflective index of the external medium surrounding the taper region on the bending loss of the tapered fiber have been investigated experimentally. An attenuation range exceeding 35 dB and a very low excess loss of < 0.2 dB at 1550 nm were achieved. The measured polarization dependent loss of the present VOA at the attenuation level of 10 dB, 20 dB, and 30 dB were 0.1 dB, 0.2 dB, and 0.5 dB, respectively.

The present study is devoted to investigate numerically the optical characteristics of multi-layer thin film structures such as $Si/SiO_2\;and\;Ge/Si/SiO_2$ by using the characteristics transmission matrix method. The reflectivity and the absorptivity rate for thin film structures are estimated for different incident angles of rays and various film thicknesses. In addition, the influence of wavelength on optical characteristics related to complex refractive index is examined. It is found that such wave-like characteristics are observed in predicting reflectivities and depends mainly on film thickness. Moreover, the present study predicts the film thickness for ignoring wave interference effects, and it also discusses the fundamental physics behind optical and energy absorption characteristics appearing in multi-layer thin film structures.

In outdoor visible light communication channels and LED road illumination communications for the intelligent transport systems (ITS), inter symbol interference (ISI) due to multipath propagation prevents high data rate transmission. Indoor wireless optical communication systems utilizing white LED lights and on the road illumination have been studying about it. Generally, plural lights are installed in room and considered to the traffic information system using existing LED traffic lights. Therefore, their optical path difference must be considered. In this paper, the influence of an optical path difference has been investigated and two approaches against this problem are introduced. One uses on-off keying, return-to-zero (OOK-RZ) coding and the other uses optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM).

The analytical expressions for a partially coherent flat-topped vortex hollow beam propagating in uniaxial crystals orthogonal to the optical axis are derived, and the intensity and coherent vortex properties of partially coherent flat-topped vortex hollow beam propagation in uniaxial crystals orthogonal to the optical axis are analyzed by numerical examples. The influence of beam order parameter N, topological charge M, the coherence length and the ratio of refractive indices $n_e/n_o$ of uniaxial crystals on the normalized intensity distribution and coherent vortex of a partially coherent flat-topped vortex hollow beam propagating in uniaxial crystals are discussed in detail.

Future electric lights will be composed of white LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes). Indoor wireless optical communication systems utilizing white LED lights have been studying about it. Generally, plural lights are installed in room. Therefore, their optical path difference must be considered. In this paper, the influence of an optical path difference has been investigated and two approaches against this problem are introduced. One uses OOK-RZ (On-Off Keying, Return-to-Zero) coding and the other uses optical OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing). From the results of computer simulations, we have found that these approaches are feasible for the wireless optical communication systems utilizing white LED lights.

We analyze aberrations in an optical laser printer system in order to know how to determine an allowable non-uniformity of the movement of a light spot, how to determine allowed variation of spot sizes, and how to minimize the influence of these deviations on technological errors. In this paper, the correction and the tolerance of distortion are analyzed by using the concept of zonal and global distortions. The tolerance of field curvature is also obtained from Gaussian beam properties. In order to reduce the change of the entrance pupil position and to make a more compact laser printer system the minimum size of the rotator is exactly derived from the geometry with the introduction of the shift angle of the input beam.

In a free-space coherent optical communication system, wavefront distortion is frequently beyond the correction range of the adaptive-optics system after the laser has propagated through the atmospheric turbulence. A method of residual wavefront correction is proposed, to improve the quality of coherent optical communication in free space. The relationship between the wavefront phase expanded by Zernike polynomials and the mixing efficiency is derived analytically. The influence of Zernike-polynomial distortion on the bit-error rate (BER) of a phase-modulation system is analyzed. From the theoretical analysis, the BER of the system changes periodically, due to the periodic extension of wavefront distortion. Experimental results show that the BER after correction is reduced from 10^-1 to 10^-4; however, when the closed-loop control algorithm with residual correction is used, the experimental results show that the BER is reduced from 10^-1 to 10^-7.
