  • The optical power splitter/couplers based on MMI(multimode interference) in GaAs/AlGaAs are studied. We presetn a design of optical power splitter/couplers, which have deeply etched multimode waveguide. The properties and fabrication tolerance on the etching depth, multimode waveguide width are simulatedusing a FD-BPM (finite difference beam propgation method). Proposed 1*N optical of designed device is 0.7dB smaller than the optical power splitter with a shallowly etched MMI section. For 0.5dB excess loss, the predicted fabrication tolerance is 0.6.mu.m on the multimode waveguide width of the 14 optical power splitter with a deeply etched MMI section. Also excess loss and uniformity of poposed 32*32 optical power coupler are below 0.3dB. The excess loss of proposed 32*32 optical power coupler is 2dB smaller than the optical power coupler with a shallowly etched MMI section. It is shown that the optical power splitters/couplers with a deeply etched mMI section have low loss, good uniformity, and improved fabriction tolerance.

  • Using tightly focused femtosecond laser pulses, we produce an optical waveguide and devices in transparent materials. This technique has the potential to generate not only channel waveguides, but also three-dimensional optical devices. In this paper, an optical splitter and U-grooves, which are used for fiber alignment, are simultaneously fabricated in a fused silica glass using near-IR femtosecond laser pulses. The fiber- aligned optical splitter has a low insertion loss, less than 4 dB, including an intrinsic splitting loss of 3 dB and excess loss due to the passive alignment of a single-mode fiber. Finally, we present an output field pattern, demonstrating that the splitting ratio of the optical splitter becomes approximately 1:1.

  • In this paper, optical noise is reduced by a differential detector, which is composed of a beam splitter and two photodiodes whose spectral responses are different each other. In this configuration, the automatic gain control circuit is not required for noise cancellation because the noise intensities at the two photodiodes are kept equal by a beam splitter. The signal to noise ratio in a differential detector with a beam splitter was improved to be 14 ㏈ higher than in a single photodiode with optical filtering.

  • In conventional photogrammetry, three-dimensional coordinates are obtained from two consecutive images of a stationary object photographed from two exposure stations, separated by a certain distance. However, it is impossible to photograph moving objects from two stations with one camera at the same time. Various methods to overcome this obstacle were devised e. g. taking the left and right scenes simultaneously with one camera using a beam splitter attached to the front, thus creating a stereo scene in one image. A beam splitter consists of two outer mirrors and two inner mirrors. This paper deals with research where the optical principles of the beam splitter were evaluated based on light path phenomena between the outer mirrors and the inner mirrors. A mathematical model of the geometric configuration was derived for the beam splitter. This allows us to design and control a beam splitter to obtain maximum scale and maximum base-height ratio by stepwise application of the mathematical model. The results show that the beam splitter is a very useful tool for stereophotography with one camera. The optimum geometric configurations ensuring maximum scale and base-height ratio are closely related to inner and outer reflector sizes, their inclination angles and the offsets between the outer mirrors.

  • In the fibre to the home (FTTH) era, it is expected that broadband network provisioning will require thousands of optical fibres to be accommodated in a central office for optical access networks. An optical fibre line testing system could be used to reduce maintenance costs and improve service availability depending on the PON's element manager capabilities and the maintenance procedures adopted by the network supplier. When monitoring optical fibres transmitting communication lights, a wavelength of 1625 nm is used for maintenance testing. The splitter installed optical filters allow the communication light to pass but that cut off the test light in the front of optical line terminals (OLTs) and optical network terminals (ONTs). In the economic point of view, We design new planer lightwave circuit splitter embedded filtter and study it optical property.

  • The environmental and mechanical reliability of planar lightwave circuit (PLC)-type optical splitter modules is investigated with references [1, 3]. The module is composed of Y-branching silica-based waveguides on Si connected to optical fiber with UV-curable adhesives and is packaged in a metal case which is filled with humidity-resistant resin. High optical performance such as low loss, low reflection, and thermal stability are obtained through the use of this fiber connection technique. Ten reliability tests including long-term environmental and mechanical and ALT test were carried out for more then ten $1{\times}32$ channel PLC splitter modules.

  • Circularly polarized (CP) emission can be achieved by integrating emissive materials into chiral metasurfaces. Such CP light sources in integrated device platforms are desirable for important potential applications. However, the exact characterization of the polarization state in CP emission may include some errors because of the unwanted polarization distortion caused by optical components (e.g., beam splitter) in the optical setup. Here, we consider CP emission measurements from chiral metasurfaces and characterize the polarization distortion caused by the beam splitter. We first detail the procedures for the Stokes parameters and Mueller matrix measurements. Then, we directly measure the Mueller matrix of the beam splitter and retrieve the original polarization state of CP emission from our metasurface sample. Using the measured Mueller matrix of the beam splitter, we specifically identify what contributes to polarization distortion in CP emission. Our work may provide useful guidelines for the characterization and compensation of polarization distortion in general Stokes parameter measurements.

  • Purpose: This study relates to the development of dot-sight device, whose length is reduced, with a prism beam splitter. Methods: We developed a new dot-sight device whose length was reduced by eliminating the optical axis tilt of the doublet reflector to reduce the occurrence of the parallax and by redesigning the doublet reflector to use a prism beam splitter. Results: We could develop the new type dot-sight device having a prism beam splitter and the dot reticle generator and the doublet reflector, of which optical axises showed a T-letter type with the optical axis of the observer's eye. Conclusions: In this study, we designed and developed a new type dot sight employing a prism beam splitter that could be able to further enhance the accuracy of the fire in comparison with the traditional dot sight, thereby reducing the overall optical length of system. The new designed dot sight was able to be reduced 2.2 times on the overall optical length, and could be improved more than three times on the accuracy of shooting in the horizontal direction, than the traditional dot sight.
