열광학 장주기 격자를 이용한 노치 필터의 파워 소모를 이론적으로 살펴 보았다. 여기서 열광학 장주기 격자는 주기적인 히터들과 패드들로 구성된 히터 배열에 의해 유발된다. 히터 배열에서 소모되는 파워는 열광학 장주기 격자를 유발하는 줄(joule) 열로 전환되기 때문에, 그 파워를 조절함으로써 노치 필터의 특성을 동적으로 제어할 수 있다. 적절한 결합 효율을 얻기 위해 히터 배열에 가하는 파워는 히터 배열의 인자들에 의존하는데, 이 인자들은 히터의 폭과 길이, 패드의 폭, 그리고 히터 배열을 구성하는 금속 박막의 두께이다. 이 인자들이 파워 소모에 미치는 영향을 이론적으로 해석하는 근사적인 방법을 설명하고, 설명한 방법을 사용하여 인자들의 변화에 따른 파워 소모의 변화를 해석한다. 해석 결과로부터 파워 소모를 줄이기 위해 필요한 인자 선택의 기준을 도출한다.

This letter presents a polymer $1{\times}2$ thermo-optic totalinternal-reflection digital optical switch (TIR-DOS) with an index contrast of 1.5%-${\delta}$ operating at low power consumption. The structure of our $1{\times}2$ TIR-DOS was created by adding a reflection port to that of a conventional multimode filtering variable optical attenuator. To improve the total-internalr-eflection efficiency, a heater offset was applied to the crossing region of multimode waveguides of the TIR-DOS. The fabricated $1{\times}2$ TIR-DOS shows a low electrical power consumption of 18 mW for an on-off ratio of 35 dB.

측면 연마된 편광 유지 광섬유와 폴리머 평면도파로가 결합된 비대칭 방향성 결합기를 이용하여 가변 광필터를 구현하였다. 소자의 최상부층 위에 형성된 마이크로 스트립 히터에 의하여 유도된 폴리머 평면도파로의 열광학 효과는 결합기의 공진파장을 이동시킨다. 제작된 소자는 720 ㎽의 인가 전력으로 230 ㎚ 이상의 넓은 가변 범위를 보였다.

Novel thermo-optically focus-switchable Fresnel zone plates based on phase-change metafilms are designed and analyzed at a visible wavelength (660 nm). By virtue of the large thermo-optic response of vanadium dioxide (VO₂) thin film, a phase-change material, four different plasmonic phase-change absorbers are numerically designed as actively tunable Gires-Tournois Al-VO₂ metafilms in two and three dimensions. The designed phase-change metafilm unit cells are used as the building blocks of actively focus-switchable Fresnel zone plates with strong focus switching contrast (40%, 83%) and high numerical apertures (1.52, 1.70). The Fresnel zone plates designed in two and three dimensions work as cylindrical and spherical lenses in reflection type, respectively. The coupling between the thermo-optic effect of VO₂ and localized plasmonic resonances in the Al nanostructures offer a large degree of freedom in design and high-contrast focus-switching performance based on largely tunable absorption resonances. The proposed method may have great potential in photothermal and electrothermal active optical devices for nonlinear optics, microscopy, 3D scanning, optical trapping, and holographic displays over a wide spectral range including the visible and infrared regimes.

Stable and tunable dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber ring laser(EDFL) using a single fiber Bragg grating(FBG) and two coil heaters is proposed and demonstrated. Installing two identical coils into a single FBG, the FBG is symmetrically divided into two different portions. While a current supply to the coil, the refractive index of the FBG under the coil is changed. The FBG can operate as a joint of two different FBGs. Due to the thermo-optic effect of a fiber, the resonance wavelength split into two peaks. The spacing between two adjacent channels was changed as much as the difference of heating power. It was tuned up to 3 nm of wavelength under the electrical power with a 1000 mW. Moreover, the lasing wavelength can be individually tuned without influencing to the adjacent channel.

This letter presents a crosstalk-enhanced polymer thermo-optic digital optical switch operating at a low power consumption. Modified radiation-type attenuators are integrated in a series with a conventional $1{\times}2$ digital optical switch. A low optical crosstalk of less than -45 dB is attained at a low applied switching power of 60 mW, and an insertion loss of about 1.1 dB is exhibited.

Tunable thermo-optic filter for WDM system was designed and fabricated. The basic structure of the filter was a Fabry-Perot resonator and the center cavity layer was poly-Si. Quardraple layers of low and high refractive index materials were used as DBR mirrors. Tuning and transmission efficiencies was measured and compared with the simulation results. Tuning range of 9.4 nm can be obtained by 64.7$^{\circ}C$ temperature changes and tuning efficiency was 0.144nm/K. The filter is to be assembled onto the micro optical bench with fiber optical path.

We proposed and demonstrated a simultaneous measurement method to detect the refractive index and temperature of a medium using a side-polished fiber involving FBG (fiber Bragg grating). The temperature of a medium was obtained by using the Bragg wavelength shift of FBG, while the refractive index of medium were calculated by using the transmission loss. The Bragg wavelength is independent on the refractive index of the covering medium placed on surface of side-polished fiber, while the transmission loss at off-Bragg wavelength highly depends on the environmental temperature because of thermo-optic effect of the medium.
