The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a photorefractive crystal is considered. The electromagnetic waves(i.e. TE waves and TM, waves) incident upon the crystal at any incident angle are coupled with reflected waves due to the Fresnel's reflectance in the photorefractive crystal. This coupling leads to a nonreciprocal optical transmissivity. About some incident angles, the optical transmissivity of TE and TM waves in regard to the coupling strength is investigated.

LCD(Liquid Crystal Display)는 현재 정보 디스플레이 소자들 중 부피가 작고, 소비전력이 작으며, 비발광체로서 눈의 부담을 줄일 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있으나, 화면 표시 속도가 느려 잔상이 남는 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위해서는 응답속도가 빠른 액정이 요구된다. 반사형 LCD는 배면조명이 없어 가볍고, 주변 광원을 이용하여 저 소비전력의 장점을 가지고 있어 휴대성이 강조되고 있는 최근 정보통신기기들의 추세에 적합하다. (중략)

We present the analysis of phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings by coupled-mode equations. The transmission is expressed as that of a Fabry-Perot resonator with complex reflectance and complex transmittance. The transmission spectrum, the effective cavity length, and the behaviors with different phase-shifts are investigated. A very flattered transmission peak is obtained by introducing three phase-shifts in a grating.

We have studied both theoretically and experimentally an omnidirectional reflector operating at the wavelength region of 1.3 $\mu$m. The omnnidirectional reflector, a special case of one-dimensional photonic crystals, was prepared by alternately sputtering two dielectric materials, amorphous silicon and silicon dioxide. Measured reflectance spectra, very consistent with simulated results at all angles and polarizations, clearly showed the existence of an omnidirectional photonic bandgap.

As part of the next-generation Compact Advanced Satellite 500 (CAS500) project, CAS500-4 is scheduled to be launched in 2025 focusing on the remote sensing of agriculture and forestry. To obtain quantitative information on vegetation from satellite images, it is necessary to acquire surface reflectance through atmospheric correction. Thus, it is essential to develop an atmospheric correction method suitable for CAS500-4. Since the absorption and scattering characteristics in the atmosphere vary depending on the wavelength, it is needed to analyze the sensitivity of atmospheric correction parameters such as aerosol optical depth (AOD) and water vapor (WV) considering the wavelengths of CAS500-4. In addition, as CAS500-4 has only five channels (blue, green, red, red edge, and near-infrared), making it difficult to directly calculate key parameters for atmospheric correction, external parameter data should be used. Therefore, thisstudy performed a sensitivity analysis of the key parameters (AOD, WV, and O₃) using the simulated images based on Sentinel-2 satellite data, which has similar wavelength specifications to CAS500-4, and examined the possibility of using the products of GEO-KOMPSAT-2A (GK2A) as atmospheric parameters. The sensitivity analysisshowed that AOD wasthe most important parameter with greater sensitivity in visible channels than in the near-infrared region. In particular, since AOD change of 20% causes about a 100% error rate in the blue channel surface reflectance in forests, a highly reliable AOD is needed to obtain accurate surface reflectance. The atmospherically corrected surface reflectance based on the GK2A AOD and WV was compared with the Sentinel-2 L2A reflectance data through the separability index of the known land cover pixels. The result showed that two corrected surface reflectance had similar Seperability index (SI) values, the atmospheric corrected surface reflectance based on the GK2A AOD showed higher SI than the Sentinel-2 L2A reflectance data in short-wavelength channels. Thus, it is judged that the parameters provided by GK2A can be fully utilized for atmospheric correction of the CAS500-4. The research findings will provide a basis for atmospheric correction of the CAS500-4 in the future.

This study evaluates the impact of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aerosol optical depth (AOD) expected error (EE) on the accuracy of surface reflectance (SR) derived from the KOMPSAT-3A satellite, utilizing the Second Simulation of the Satellite Signal in the Solar Spectrum Vector radiative transfer model. By considering a range of ground-based AOD and the resultant MODIS AOD EE, the research identifies significant influences on SR accuracy, particularly under high solar zenith angles(SZA) and shorter wavelengths. The study's simulations reveal that SR errors increase with shorter wavelengths and higher SZAs, highlighting the necessity for further research to improve atmospheric correction algorithms by incorporating wavelength and SZA considerations. Additionally, the study provides foundational data for better understanding the use of AOD data from other satellites in atmospheric correction processes and contributes to advancing atmospheric correction technologies.

Lithium niobate ($LN:LiNbO_3$) is a compound of niobium, lithium and oxygen. The characteristics of LN are piezoelectricity, ferroelectricity and photoelectricity, and which is widely used in surface acoustic wave (SAW). To manufacture LN devices, the LN surface should be a smooth surface and defect-free because of optical property, but the LN material is processed difficult b traditional processes such as grinding and mechanical polishing (MP) because of its brittleness. To decrease defects, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) was applied to the LN wafer. In this study, the suitable parameters such as down force and relative velocity, were investigated for the LN CMP process To improve roughness, the LN CMP was performed using the parameters that were the highest removal rate among process parameters. And, evaluation of optical property was performed by the optical reflectance.

Resonance angle and optimum thinckness of various thin metal films for surface plasmon resonance were calculated using an admittance diagram and optical constants and thickness of thin Ag films and Al films were determined by fitting the measured reflectance of surface plasmon resonance. Two wavelengths of an Ar ion laser were employed to select the unique optical constants which have the same thickness at two wavelengths. Also, when these films were exposed to the air, the shift of surface plasmon resonance was measured and the optical constants of modified thin films were determined.

The light transmittance of optical device is one of the important conditions to improve the product performance and it has researched through the various methods. One of these methods to improve the optical transmittance is to use a pattern on optical surface. The advantages of this method are to simplify the manufacturing process and to easy mass production. If a surface of glass has with the proper patterns, we can expect a great effect on optical transmittance. The purpose of this research is to derive a pattern to get high transmittance from a theoretical approach and to analyze the transmittance through the simulation. And then, we made a sample with a pattern and compared with the results from simulation and experiment.
