In order to improve the accuracy of simulated results, new UV source was designed. Previously the optical simulation was performed with the symmetric planar UV source. To design new UV source, UV distribution from the plasma fluid code was implanted to the 3-dimensional optical code to generate the visible light distribution. The results from planar UV source and new UV source were compared with the ICCD (Intensified CCD) image in real PDP cell and analyzed the variation of geometries and optical properties.

Optical simulation of the rear and front panel geometries were needed to improve the luminance and efficiency in PDP cells. The 3-dimensional optical code can be used to analyze the variation of geometries and changing of optical properties. In order to improve the accuracy of simulated results, a new UV source, called a multi-cubes UV source, was designed. To design the source, at first UV distribution was calculated with the plasma fluid code and then the UV distribution was transformed to the multi-cube structures in the optical code. Compared to the results from existing UV source, called a planar UV source, could be improved the accuracy of visible light distribution. Simulated results were also compared to the visible distribution measured with the ICCD in a real PDP cell.

The impact of equivalent optical bandwidth on the performance of a system using a reflective electroabsorption modulator (R-EAM) based optical source has been experimentally evaluated with signals operating at 2.5 Gb/s and beyond. The equivalent optical bandwidth of our source with a broadband seed light was simply adjusted by using a bandwidth tunable optical filter. From the measurements, we have estimated the required equivalent optical bandwidth of our source for an error-free transmission (@ bit-error-rate of $10^{-12}$) and a forward error correction (FEC) threshold of $2{\times}10^{-4}$.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a simple tunable photonic microwave band-pass filter with high resolution using a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) and an optical time-delay line. The RSOA is used as a gain medium for generating cross-gain modulation (XGM) effect as well as an optical source. The optical source provides narrow spectral width by self-injection locking the RSOA in conjunction with a partial reflection filter with specific center wavelength. Then, when the RSOA is operated in the saturation region and the modulated recursive signal is injected into the RSOA, the recursive signal is inversely copied to the injection locked optical source due to the XGM effect. Also, the tunability of the passband of the proposed microwave filter is shown by controlling an optical time-delay line in a recursive loop.

We have evaluated the performances of bidirectional optical amplifiers which were suited for the cost-effective implementation of amplified bidirectional passive optical networks (PONs). First, we measured the maximum gains of two simple bidirectional optical amplifiers implemented without using any optical components for the suppression of reflected signals. From the results, the maximum gains of two simple bidirectional amplifiers with a broadband light source (BLS) seeded optical source were limited to be 27 dB due to the reflection-induced in-band crosstalk, when the reflectance coefficients were measured to be -33 dB in both directions. Then, we have also implemented a bidirectional optical amplifier with two band splitters for the amplified bidirectional PON where the two different wavelength bands were allocated to the downstream and upstream signals transmission. In our measurement, we confirmed that the maximum gain of bidirectional optical amplifier with two band splitters could be increased to more than 30 dB owing to the efficient suppression of in-band crosstalk.

The radiation characteristics of a high-luminance light-emitting diode (LED) light source were studied to evaluate its potential as an energy-saving light source for fishing lamps. The angle of the LED light source with 50% illuminance was $8-15^{\circ}$, and it had strong directional characteristics. The wavelengths at which the radiance and irradiance were maxima were 709, 613, 473, 501, 525, and 465 nm for red, orange, blue, peacock blue, green, and white light, respectively. The underwater transmission characteristics of the LED light source were superior in the order blue, white, peacock blue, and green in optical water type I: blue, peacock blue, white, and green in optical water type II; and blue, peacock blue, green, and white in optical water type III. Setting the underwater transmission characteristics of the LED light source in optical water type I at 100%, the transmission of water types II and III decreased to 67 and 17%, respectively. Based on the underwater transmission characteristics calculated in optical water types I-III, the blue and peacock blue LED light sources can be used as an energy-saving light source for fishing lamps.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of digital models fabricated by difference optical source of non-contact 3D dental scanner. Methods: A master model with the prepared upper full arch tooth was used. Stone model(N=10) were produced from master model, and on the other hands, digital models were made with the 3D dental scanner(Blue, white, red optical source). The linear distance between the reference points were measured and analyzed on the Delcam $Copycad^{(R)}$ graphic software. The results were statistically analyzed using the one-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test(${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: There were considerable differences in mean values between optical source within each color(blue, white, red), and this difference was not statistically significant(p>0.05). Conclusion : Three different color of dental scanner optical source showed clinically acceptable accuracies of full arch digital model produced by them. Besides, these results will have to be confirmed in further clinical studies.

An arrayed diffractive optical element design for the beam-shaping of a multi-array light source is proposed. This is an essential device for recent optical security and face recognition applications. In practice, we devise a DC noise reduction technique featuring high fabrication error tolerance regarding the multi-array light source diffractive optical elements, as a necessary part of the proposed design method. The spherical diverging illumination leads to DC-conjugate noise spreading. The main idea is tested experimentally, and the multi-array light source diffraction pattern is investigated numerically.

A novel broadband wavelength-swept Raman laser was used to implement Fourier-domain mode locked (FDML) swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Instead of a conventional semiconductor optical amplifier, this study used broadband optical fiber Raman amplification, over 50 nm centered around 1545 nm, using a multi-wavelength optical pumping scheme, which was implemented with the four laser diodes at the center wavelengths of 1425, 1435, 1455 and 1465 nm, respectively, and the maximum operating power of 150 mW each. The operating swept frequency of the laser was determined to 16.7 kHz from the FDML condition of 12 km optical fiber in the ring cavity. The OCT images were obtained using the novel broadband wavelengthswept Raman laser source.

Incoherent broadband optical sources have been applied in various areas such as a light source for optical device characterization, fiber-optic gyroscopes$^{(1)}$ , and spectrum sliced light source in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system$^{(2)}$ . To utilize the inherent low loss in silica optical fibers, various types of incoherent light sources are being developed. Among the light sources, the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from a rare earth doped fiber has benefits in temperature stability, high output power, low polarization dependence over semiconductor diodes$^{(3)}$ . Recently erbium doped fibers (EDF) have been intensively researched for ASE sources as well as optical amplifiers$^{(4)}$ . The spectrum of ASE from an EDF, however, is limited in the 1520~1560 nm range in conventional configurations. In this letter we described a new broadband ASE source which included both the conventional ASE band of Er$^{3+}$ ion, 1520nm~1560nm and ASE band from Tm$^{3+}$ ions that extends the bandwidth further. For the first time, to the best knowledge of authors, a fiber ASE source based on the energy transfer between Er$^{3+}$ and Tm$^{3+}$ ions in the range of 1460~1550 nm, has been demonstrated using a single 980nm pump laser diode.
