A new lightwave locking technique which can be used in tuning the wavelength of a local laser diode to the reference wavelength is presented in this paper. The optical frequency from the reference laser source and the optical frequency from the local slave VCO laser are heterodyned on a optical receiver, resulting in the 1.5GHz RF signal corresponding to the difference frequency between two input optical signals. The difference frequency is locked to the reference 1.5GHz oscillator source in off-set frequency locking loop. Using the commercialized microwave components, frequency difference detector can be easily established to lock the lightwave. The optical frequency of 1.55um laser diode which keeps the frequency off-set of 1.5GHz is locked to the input reference optical signal with the locking range of 320MHz.

Infrared scenes usually contain also spectral information which cannot be resolved using normal single-band infrared cameras. Multispectral infrared imaging cameras give access to the comprehensive information contained within infrared scenes. A Dual-band infrared Camera, a type of multispectral infrared imaging cameras, has the advantage of simple system. A Dual-band Infrared Camera gives access to the spectral information as wells as the temperature information within infrared scenes. Multispectral imaging generally increases the detection and identification performance of a Dual-band Infrared Camera. This paper describes a design of an infrared Camera using a Dual-band Infrared Detector to simultaneously receive infrared radiation from the medium-wave infrared/long-wave infrared(MWIR/LWIR) bands.

The bit error probability of PCM/FM system was derived and numerically calculated. Binary NRZ-L baseband signal was premodulation filtered to frequency modulate a sinusoidal carrier, and a common circuit of limiter-discriminator was employed as a detector. Considering both RF spectrum limitation and bit error Probability reduction, it was found that h ≒ 3WT would be reasonable, where h is the frequency deviation ratio, W is the bandwidth of a premodulation filter and T is the time interval of one bit.

The films of Vanadium tungsten oxide, $V_{1.85}W_{0.15}O_5$, were grown on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering method. The $V_{1.85}W_{0.15}O_5$ thin films deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates by RF sputtering method exhibited fairly good TCR and dielectric properties. It was found that film crystallinity, dielectric properties, and TCR properties were strongly dependent upon the annealing temperature. The dielectric constants of the $V_{1.85}W_{0.15}O_5$ thin films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ were 55, with a dielectric loss of 1.435, respectively. Also, the TCR values of the $V_{1.85}W_{0.15}O_5$ thin films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ were about -3.6%/K.

Pyoelectric infrared detectors based on La-modified PbTiO3 (PLT) thin films have been fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering and micromachining technology. The detectors form Pb$_{1-x}$ La$_{x}$Ti$_{1-x}$ O$_{3}$ (x=0.05) thin film ferroelectric capacitors epitaxially grown by RF magnetron sputtering on Pt/MgO (100) substrate. The sputtered PLT thin film exhibits highly c-axis oriented crystal struture that no poling trealization for sensing applications is required. This is an essential factor to increase the yield for realization of an infrared image sensor. Micromachining technology is used to lower the thermal mass of the detector by giving maximum sensor efficiency. Polyimide is coated on top of the sensing elements to support the fragile structure and the backside of the MgO substrate is selectively eteched to reduce the heat loss. The sensing element exhibited a very high detectivity D* of 8.5*10$^{8}$ cm..root.Hz/W at room temperature and it is about 100 times higher than the case of micromachining technology is not used. a sensing system that detects the position as well as the existence of a human body is realized using the array sensor.sor.

Laser optical power stabilization of a radio frequency excited $CO_2$ slab laser using the opto-Hertzian effect generated from the laser itself is achieved on the peak of the Doppler broadened gain curve. The opto-Hertzian signal was generated by a modulation of the optical flux circulating inside the laser cavity from a variation in the cavity length caused by the vibrations of the PZT. The opto-Hertzian signal is directly coupled from a RE discharge chamber via a loop antenna into a detector and applied to a lock-in stabilizer as an reference signal. The power stability of an RF excited slab laser is estimated to be better then 0.2%.

In order to measure fine rotation angles by magneto-optic effects of magneto-optical recording thin films, a polarization modulation method is used. In the experiment, the polarization of laser (He-Ne laser) beam is modulated by a Faraday rotator and the amplified modulated signals are selectively detected by phase sensitive detector. The magnetic Kerr rotation and Faraday rotation hysteresis loops are investigated by this method for thermally evaporated amorphous TbFeCo thin films and RF sputtered garnet thin films. Rotation angles about $0.25^{\circ}$ are measured easily from TaFeCo thin films. In the case of longitudinal Kerr rotation, very small rotation angle of $2.5\times10^{-3^\circ}$ is measured with good accuracy of the measurement (about $1\times10^{-3^\circ}$). And it is found that each thin films have the hysteresis curves of high coercivity and good squareness.

In this paper, we propose a predistortion technique which uses a novel combination of the second harmonic technique and the difference frequency technique to achieve independent control of the 3rd and 5th order intermodulation products generated by the PA. The second harmonic and difference frequency terms are generated using an envelope detector and two frequency multipliers. The RF predistorter has capability to independently control of the 3rd and 5th order intermodulation products so that high power amplifier is optimized for linear characteristics. From the measurement results, over the frequency band 2137.5 MHz to 2142.5 MHz, ACPR reduction of 11 dB is obtained for a single 30 dBm W-CDMA carrier.

A 50-60GHz continuous-wave(cw) millimeter-wave(MMW) was converted(generated) by applying optical technology for future wireless and ubiquitous communications. The optical power of 22.5mW was injected into optical waveguide in this experiment. The generated MMW signals were radiated in a millimeter waveguide and detected through a millimeter detector on the inside of a millimeter waveguide in this experiment. The spectral linewidth of the MMW signals was less than 1 kHz. The power fluctuation of the MMW was less than 1.2 dBm over 50-60 GHz range.

Laser ablation ion trap mass spectrometry (LAITMS) was developed for the analysis of metal and ceramic samples. For this study, XeCl excimer laser (308 nm) was used for ablating the samples and ITMS was used as a detector. Samples were introduced from outside of a ring electrode and this way of sample introduction was very effective for solid samples when laser ablation was employed. Helium gas was used as a buffer gas, and its effect on sensitivity and some parameters (buffer gas pressure, ion storage time, and cut-off RF voltage) were studied. The optimized conditions were $1{\times}10^{-4}$ Torr of buffer gas pressure, 100 ms of ion storage time and $1150V_{p-p}$ of cut-off RF voltage. From that results, copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) metals were tested with LAITMS and the mass spectra of these pure metals were compared with the natural abundance of isotope ratio. We also examined ceramic samples ($Al_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$) and represented the result of elemental analysis.
