파장가변 광 필터는 WDM 광전송 시스템에 필요로 하는 핵심 부품중의 하나이다. 특히 LiNbO$_3$의 음향광학효과를 이용하는 AOTF(Acousto-Optic Tunable Filter)는 150nm 이상의 파장 가변 범위, 1.5nm 이하의 파장 통과대역폭, 수 $\mu\textrm{s}$ 정도의 비교적 빠른 스위칭 속도, 그리고 여러 파장 채널을 동시에 선택할 수 있는 장점들을 보유하고 있음에도 불구하고 표면 음향파(SAW： SurFace Acoustic Wave) 구동에 필요한 RF 파워와 부 모드(sidelobe)가 비교적 크다는 단점 때문에 실용화에 많은 제약을 받아왔다.

The Acousto-Optic Tunable Filter (AOTF) is a high-speed full-field monochromator which generates two spectrally filtered light beams with ordinary and extraordinary polarization state. Thus, AOTF is widely used to build full-field spectral imaging system or spectral domain interferometer. However, AOTF has a big problem that the angle of diffracted light changes according to the scanning of wavelength, which makes image shift on CCD plane In this paper, we propose an analytic design of prism system to compensate the image shift. The detailed analysis of light paths in a prism and basic experimental results are presented to verify our proposed compensation method. The experimental results agree with simulation results based on suggested prism model and image shift is minimized at optimal condition. Also, it can be extended to compensate the image shift for ordinary and extraordinary polarized light simultaneously.

A new electronically stopband tunable filter is proposed with three-input single-output using Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) in this paper. The proposed filter provides band pass, low pass and high pass multifunctional responses. Centre frequency ($f_c$) and quality factor (Q) of the realized filters could independently tuned without disturbing each other. Various network sensitivity and non-ideal characteristic analysis are done to check the sensitivity and parasitic effect of different circuit parameters. The CMOS realization of filter is done with 1.8V-0.18um process parameters and HSPICE simulation results are presented to assert the presented theory.

We constructed a simple wavelength readout system for a tunable fiber laser which was used for a fiber Bragg grating sensor array system. A quadrature sampling method was used to demodulate wavelength variations of the tunable laser which consisted of a SOA(semi-conductor optical amplifier) and a fiber-optic Fabry-Perot filter. Internal triggers, which have a 90 degree phase period, have been generated by using a double-pass Mach-Zehnder interferometer. From Lissajous plots with quadrature sampled data, a mean phase error of ${\sim}2.51$ mrad was obtained. From the wavelength readout experiments, an accurate and fast linear wavelength demodulation has been confirmed.

A tunable wavelength filter was proposed and demonstrated by using the UV nanoimprint technique. It consists of a Bragg grating in polymer waveguides and a heating electrode. The manufacturing of the grating was substantially simplified with the introduction of a smart imprint stamp containing a waveguide pattern integrated with the grating pattern. The center wavelength of the filter was successfully tuned by taking advantage of the thermooptic effect in polymers, which was induced by supplying electrical power to the electrode. For the fabricated device, a transmission dip of ${\~}$15 dB and a 3-dB bandwidth of 0.8 nm were obtained at the Bragg wavelength of ${\~}$l560 nm. The achieved thermooptic tuning efficiency was ${\~}$0.28 nm/mW, while the center wavelength was shifted from 1560 nm to 1558 nm with the electrical power consumption of 7 mW.

A reconfigurable photonic microwave (MW) channel selective filter was demonstrated incorporating a $1{\times}2$ switch based on two tunable polymeric resonators with different free spectral ranges. Each resonator, consisting of two cascaded rings with an electrode formed on one of them, plays a role as an on/off switch through the thermooptic effect. The optical signal carrying the MW signal is routed to either port of the switch and detected to show the filtered output at the frequency determined by the free spectral range of the corresponding resonator. When the channel centered at 10 GHz was chosen, the extinction ratio was ${\sim}30dB$, the bandwidth 1 GHz, and the electrical power consumption 4.1 mW. For the other channel located at 20 GHz, we have achieved the extinction ratio of ${\sim}30dB$, the bandwidth of 2 GHz, and the required power of 8.0 mW. Finally the crosstalk between the selected and blocked channels was higher than 24 dB.

A polarized mode convertible, wavelength tunable optical filters with acoustic barriers and acousto-optic effect have been produced in LiNb03 substrate utilizing the Ti double diffusion technique. Polarization conversion in excess of 81 % and a spectral width of -200 kHz (-1.83 nm) were achieved at a wavelength of 1551.6 nm and RF frequencies of 173.07 kHz and 173.05 kHz for both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (lM) input polarizations, respectively. The electrical driving power was 10.97 mW and reduced to about 10% of one for an optical filter without an acoustic barrier. A linear tuning rate of 8.2 nmlMHz and sidelobe intensity of -4 dB was demonstrated. rated.

We propose a new method for tuning of center wavelength in photorefractive filter using $LiNbO_3$ crystal doped with 0.015Wt.% Fe. through the filter bandwidth property analysis using the geometrical method, a new wavelength selectivity theory was presented. In this scheme, the tuning of the center wavelength can be achieved by the real time incident angle control of the received heam, which was gotten by the spatial light modulator. So, tuning time depend on the response time of the SLM and results in the high speed turing. Because the use of thermally fixed grating in our filter, it has uniform diffraction property to the all filtering wavelength. Designed tunable filter has 4nm bandwidth and composed of the three channel with 10nm space. From the optical experiment, we get the 4.5nm, 4.25nm, 4nm bandwidth and 1530.5nm, 1540.5nm, 1549.5nm center wavelength respectively.
