We designed and fabricated integrated-optic tunable polarization controllers based on $LiNbO_3$ with the Ti-indiffused waveguide along the y-axis utilizing the electro-optic effect. The device consists of $TE↔TM$ mode converters and TE/TM phase shifters. We analyzed the operation principles of each device utilizing transfer matrices based on a Jones matrix and simulated shifting of the center wavelength by inducing voltage. We confirmed experimentally that the fabricated devices control the tunability of the center wavelength and the input SOP.

A self-pulsating multisection distributed-feedback laser diode (DFB LD) can potentially realize all-optical clock extraction. This device generally consists of three sections, two DFB sections and one waveguide section. The most important variable in this device is detuning, which is the relative spectral position between the stop bands of two DFB sections. We fabricated a novel structure in which two gratings were located one over and one under the active layers. Each grating structure was independently defined in processing so that detuning, which is the prerequisite for self-pulsation, could be easily controlled. Observing various self-pulsating phenomena in these devices under several detuning conditions, we characterized the phenomena as dispersive Q-switching, mode beating, and self-mode-locking.

In this paper, a narrow-band waveguide channel fitter has been designed and realized for Ku band satellite transponder. Group-delay and amplitude variations of the channel filter have been minimized using a 2-pole reflection type equalizer. The channel filter has been designed to have the 8-pole elliptic response for high frequency selectivity. Dual-mode technique has been adopted for reducing mass and volume of the channel filter and equalizer. The channel filter and equalizer have shown good performance for satellite transponder.

A technique is presented that uses a circular waveguide for the measurement of the bulk shear(S-wave) velocities of unconsolidated, saturated media, with particular application to near surface soils. The technique requires the measurement of the attenuation characteristics of the fumdamental T(0,1) mode that propagates along an embedded pipe, from which the acoustic properties of the surrounding medium are inferred. From the dispersion curve analysis, the feasibility of using T(0,1) mode which is non-dispersive and have constant attenuation over all frequency range is discussed. The principles behind the technique are discussed and the results of an experimental laboratory validation are presented. The experimental data are best fitted for the different depths of wetted sand and the shear velocities as a function of depths are formulated using power law curves.

InGaAsP/InP ridge waveguide(RWG) distributed feedback(DFB) lasers (LD) operating at 1.55.mu.m were fabricated by a two step MOCVD process. The CW laser threshold and the slope efficiency from these lasers are 22.5mA and 0.127mW/MA perfacet at room temperature. Single longitudinal mode operation with side mode suppression of more than 30dB is obtained at 5mW. The temperature sensitivity and characteristic temperature (T$_{0}$) from DFB lasers were obtained 1.0.angs./.deg. C and 50.3K between 20.deg. C and 70.deg. C, respectively.y.

In this paper, measured iris transmission loss data and simulated data by using 3-dimension full-wave analysis S/W are presented and compared with Marcuvitz's theory. And by using measured iris data, dual-mode narrow-band channel filters can be successfully implemented. This paper shows that there is severe difference between the transmission loss of iris calculated by using Marcuvitz's equation to calculate iris dimension, if the length of slot iris is longer than .lambda./.pi., and in the long urn the response of channel filter is distorted. Experimental result shows that the characteristic response of implemented channel filter by using the iris transmission loss graph presented here matches well the design specfications. In conclusion, iris transmission loss measurement method will be very useful to design channel filter.

Numerical solutions to complex characteristic equations are quite often required to solve electromagnetic wave problems. In general, two traditional complex root search algorithms, the Newton-Raphson method and the Muller method, are used to produce such solutions. However, when utilizing these two methods, the choice of the initial iteration value is very sensitive, otherwise, the iteration can fail to converge into a solution. Thus, as an alternative approach, where the selection of the initial iteration value is more relaxed and the computation speed is high, Davidenko's method is used to determine accurate complex propagation constants for leaky circular symmetric modes in circular dielectric rod waveguides. Based on a precise determination of the complex propagation constants, the leaky mode characteristics of several lower-order circular symmetric modes are then numerically analyzed. In addition, no modification of the characteristic equation is required for the application of Davidenko's method.

We propose and demonstrate an external optical modulation method based on TE/TM-mode absorption nulls in a Multiple Quantum Well(MQW) Fabry-Perot laser diode(FP-LD). The center wavelength of the absorption nulls is rapidly shifted to short-wavelength by the small current change(~1mA) in the FP-LD, which can modulate an optical signal with more than 10 dB of extinction ratio(ER). The shift of the center wavelength comes from the refractive index change due to anomalous dispersion and the plasma effect in MQW FP-LD waveguide. Non-inverting and inverting signals are made by TE- and TM-mode absorption nulls at 155.52 Mbps and BERs for the signals are measured.

We present an analysis of highly-dispersive guided modes of two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides. By the plane ave expansion method, band structures and mode profiles of two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides are obtained. It is found that guided modes have very small group velocities and very large group velocity dispersions in the region near the f-point and in the region near the Brillouin zone edge. Especially, the group velocity dispersions are found to be millions of times larger than that of a conventional optical fiber. The contributions of the transverse resonance formed by two photonic band gap reflectors and the standing wave mode formed by periodic structures are discussed. We conclude that the highly-dispersive characteristics originate from the resonator-like aspect of the photonic crystal waveguide.
