  • The existin Berenger's PML(Perfectly Matched Layer) cannot absorb evanescent modes effectively generated in waveguides or periodic array structures. Although some absorbing boundary conditons(ABC) were introduced to absorp the evanescent modes, they did not show sufficient performance or could not be applied easily because of their much difference from Berengers PML. In this paper, NPML(New PML) is introduced to absorb the evanescent modes by splitting the conductivity and permittivity profile of the Berengers PML. The proposed NPML is certified as an ABC having enough performance for evanescent and propagating modes by analyzing the global error and the reflectivity of a waveguide.

  • An effective method is proposed to suppress the second-order beams(SOBs) that result from the cross-polarized fields of 2D edge slot arrays. By rearranging the conventional sequence of stacking waveguides, the SOBs are shown to be considerably reduced and the 9 dB suppression is obtained. The optimal sequence is obtained from the genetic and exhaustive searches and its effects are verified using near-field measurements as well as theoretical estimation. Since the proposed method requires no additional polarizing structures such as baffles, it is very easy and cost-effective to implement.

  • An ultrasonic method is developed for the measurement of the two-phase mixture level in the reactor vessel or steam generator. The ultrasonic method is selected among the several non¬nuelear two-phase mixture level measurement methods through two steps of selection procedure. A commercial ultrasonic level measurement method is modified for application into the high temperature, pressure, and other conditions. The calculation method of the ultrasonic velocity is modified to consider the medium as the homogeneous mixture of air and steam. and to be applied into the high temperature and pressure conditions. The cross-correlation technique is adopted as a detection method to reduce the effects of the attenuation and the dif.JUsed reflection caused by suface fluctuation. The waveguides are developed to reduce the loss of echo and to remove the effects of obstructs. The present experimental study shows that the developed ultrasonic method measures the two-phase mixture level more accurately than the conventional methods do.

  • Ti:LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로는 확산형 도파로이기 때문에 그 도파특성이 확산공정 조건에 크게 의존할 뿐만 아니라 굴절률 분포를 모델링하기가 어렵다. 이러한 이유로 설계된 Ti:LiNbO$_3$ 광도파로의 특성은 실제 제작된 소자와 큰 차이를 보이는 경우가 많은데, 이를 개선하기 위해서는 각 공정파라미터에 따른 도파 특성의 변화를 파악하는 작업이 우선적으로 수행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 서로 다른 너비를 갖는 Ti strip을 동일한 확산조건에서 확산시킨 후 제작된 광도파로의 도파손실 및 모드패턴을 측정하였다. (중략)

  • We have analyzed the amplification of a signal wave in the optical parametric interactions of the pump, signal, and idler waves in planar waveguides, with the pump wave being Cerenkov radiation. Based on the coupled-mode theory, we have derived the first-order coupled-mode differential equations for no pump depletion. The equations can easily be solved numerically. The approximate analytical and numerical solutions of the equations show that the signal wave can be amplified parametrically.

  • We report efficient direct coupling of THz dipole antenna pulses onto air spaced two-wire transmission lines and Teflon covered two-wire lines. The air spaced two-wire lines show TEM mode propagation with very small group velocity dispersion (GVD) and relatively low attenuation. The Teflon covered two-wire lines showed comparatively much higher attenuation and GVD. However, the Teflon covered two-wire lines show a very good guiding property when the lines are curved. Although the lines are circled only 5.0 cm in diameter, there is no additional attenuation compared to straight the lines.

  • After the successful extension of the rotating planar waveguide model to Wave Optics, where a clear identification between the angular velocity of one hypothetical waveguide and the phase differences between two points on the path of one bounded mode was found, an application of the model to explain the interference theory is presented. We demonstrate that, for two bounded modes to create an interference pattern, a constrain to the relative parameters among both is imposed by the fiber optics. This result, not reported in the literature up to date, provides a new horizon to understand the interaction light-light when propagated within optical fibers.

  • We investigate the characteristics of the surface mode formed at the single interface between dual singly negative medium layers. It is shown that the interface can support a mode which has polarization degeneracy and a vanishing propagation constant. That is, this surface mode is a polarization-independent one that does not propagate at all through the interface. The corresponding electric and magnetic field distributions become static along the longitudinal (guiding) direction (but not along the transverse direction) resulting in the formation of transverse-electric/longitudinalmagnetic or transverse-magnetic/longitudinal-electric modes.

  • The results of the experimental and theoretical studies conducted on terahertz filtering using two parallel-plate waveguides (PPWGs) are presented herein. The first PPWG with 355 ${\mu}m$ plate separation generates 4 THz bandwidth TM modes ($TM_0,\;TM_2,\;and\;TM_4$), whereas the second PPWG with 100 ${\mu}m$ plate separation operated the THz filter for the generated TM modes with 1.5 THz cutoff frequency. The outgoing THz wave of the two PPWGs was truncated until 1.5 THz, and the system was operated using a high-pass THz filter. The absorption and dispersion of the combined TM and TE modes for the filtering system were calculated. The theoretical calculation and measurement results for the cutoff and oscillation frequency in the spectrum domain agreed well.
