We fabricated concave optical fiber tips using hydrofluoric acid solution and photothermal effect induced by $1.55{\mu}m$ wavelength laser applied to an optical fiber. The radius of curvature of the concave optical fiber tips fabricated with different applied laser power, etching time, and concentration of hydrofluoric acid was measured with an optical microscope. Then, we analyzed how the radius of curvature changes for those three variables. In addition, the reliability of the measurement method using a microscope was verified through a free spectral range(FSR) and a scanning electron microscope(SEM). Through this paper, the radius of curvature can be adjusted by the variables of the fabrication process of concave optical fiber tips; thus, it is overcoming the limitations of conventional optical fiber etching methods using hydrofluoric acid solutions.

It is well know that optical oupler that is composed of the polished single-mode optical fiber can separate two arbitrary wave lengths. Wavelength division ranges of the WDM optical coupler that is made of the bending fiber with radius R vary with the center wavelength of the signal and spacing between two cores. In this paper, when optical fiber is fixed with the radius R, We proposed the spacing between two cores that can provide minimum division range. Also, We proposed the minimum radius R necessary to separate two arbitary wavelengths of the signal.

Size dependent emission properties and the interband optical transition energies in group-III nitride based quantum dots are investigated taking into account the geometrical confinement. Exciton binding energy and the optical transition energy in $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN and $Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN quantum dots are studied. The largest intersubband transition energies of electron and heavy hole with the consideration of geometrical confinement are brought out. The interband optical transition energies in the quantum dots are studied. The exciton oscillator strength as a function of dot radius in the quantum dots is computed. The interband optical absorption coefficients in GaInN/GaN and AlInN/AlN quantum dots, for the constant radius, are investigated. The result shows that the largest intersubband energy of 41% (10%) enhancement has been observed when the size of the dot radius is reduced from $50{\AA}$ to $25{\AA}$ of $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN ($Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN) quantum dot.

This paper has been focused in developing of plastic lens with ultra-precision and low birefringence ability using by injection molding simulation tools. The simulation tools, $3D-Timon^{TM}\;and\;Asu-Mold^{TM}$ were applied to visualize indirectly the flow pattern of melted polymer enter the mould and the simulation results are verified as compared with the experimental results. Birefringence and polarized light generated in injection molding process was also calculated for each injection conditions and compared with .the pictures of experimented optical lens go through the polarized light plates device. A spherical radius of plastic optical lens transcribed from profile of mould core surface was measured to estimate the geometrical accuracy fer the each injection conditions. It is confirmed that the simulation results about flow pattern and polarized light area coincided in experimental results. It is known that increasing in thickness shrinkage at center of lens, the spherical radius is larger from comparing the graph measured spherical radius and the thickness shrinkage at center of lens

In this paper, the front radiuses of curvature of spherical spectacle lenses in the cosmetic and optical point of view are investigated and are calculated using Zinken-Sommer condition. The optical power of all spherical spectacle lens shows good quality at the test using autometic lensmeter. However the front radiuses of curvature of spherical spectacle lenses are quite different depending on the lens companies. The front radius of curvature of those lenses is larger than that calculated using Zinken-Sommer condition. We know that the front radius of curvature of commercial spectacle lens is emphasized more cosmetic aspect than optical point of view.

Alumino-borosilicate glasses containing nano-sized CuCl crystals for nonlinear optical application were prepared by the melting and precipitation process, and structural and optical properties were investigated by using XRD, TEM, SAXS, and optical spectroscopy. the average radius of the precipitated CuCl particles was about 2 nm. The blue shift of Z3 resonance peak with decreasing the precipitated CuCl particles size was found and the radius increased with decreasing the glass transition temperature of the matrix glass and with increasing the temperature and duration time of the precipitation heat treatment.

In order to construct B-ISDN, it is inevitable to introduce optical fiber of low loss and wide bandwidth. Coincidently, high count optical fiber cable is solely important to form optical subscriber network. The best structure of high count optical fiber cable to achieve multi-splicing as well as high density at the same time is the one of taking optical ribbon as a unit of accomodation. However, since optical ribbon has its own width. optical loss due to length difference during the bending of ribbon cable unit occurs in relatively easy way. Therefore, care should be taken during its manufacturing and storage. In t\1::; paper, strain, bending radius and lateral pressure of each fiber in ribbon due to the bending of ribbon cable unit are caculated theoretically. Hence, we have measured optical loss of each fiber as function of unit bending radius, when we bent the ribbon cable unit on the various reel. We found that the result accords well with the theoretical analysis. The result shows the importance to determine proper radius of reel used in ribbon cable manufacturing and storage. orage.

In this paper, we have carried out some tests for analyzing the effects of optical fiber characteristics and piping structures in designing a Customer Cabling System with optical fibers. In this tests, the loss characteristics due to the number of curvatures and the radius of curvature with bending to establish an optical fiber have analyzed particularly. We can confirm that the test results satisfy the current technical regulations in both cases of the number of curvatures and the radius of curvatures. Also, in particular, since there is no loss in an optical cable under the current radius of curvature, that is 30mm, the radius criteria of curvature needs to be revised. These tests results will be so useful to revise and establish a customer cabling system for FTTH.
