Phenomenological nonlinear gain saturation effect on the modulation characteristics in a multi-electrode DBR laser, when the lasing wavelength changes, continuously is analized theoretically. FM efficiency, 3 dB bandwidth, and resonance frequency decrease with increasing bias current to the passive section, except increasing the flat FM response. It is found that the nonlinear gain saturation effect severely affects the modulation characteristics such as FM/IM response, 3 dB bandwidth, resonance frequency and CPR, but hardly affects the behavior of continuous frequency tuning.

The world's first geostationary ocean color imager (GOCI) is a three-mirror anastigmat optical system 140 mm in diameter. Designed for 500 m ground sampling distance, this paper deals with on-orbit modulation transfer function (MTF)measurement and analysis for GOCI. First, the knife-edge and point source methods were applied to the 8th band (865 nm) image measured April 5th, 2011. The target details used are the coastlines of the Korean peninsula and of Japan, and an island 400 meters in diameter. The resulting MTFs are 0.35 and 0.34 for the Korean East Coastline and Japanese West Coastline edge targets, respectively, and 0.38 for the island target. The daily and seasonal MTF variations at the Nyquist frequency were also checked, and the result is $0.32{\pm}0.04$ on average. From these results, we confirm that the GOCI on-orbit MTF performance satisfies the design requirements of 0.32 for 865 nm wavelength.

Recently, laser interferometer is widely used as a measuring system in many fields because of its high resolution and its ability to measure a board area in real-time ail at once. In conventional laser interferometer, for examples Out of plane ESPI, In plane ESPI, Shearography and Holography, it uses PZT or other components as a phase shift instrumentation to extract 3-D deformation data, vibration mode and others. However, in most cases PZT has some disadvantages, which include noli-linear errors and limited time of use. In present study, a new type of laser interferometer using a laser diode(LD) is proposed. Using Laser Diode Sinusoidal Phase Modulating(LD-SPM) interferometer, the phase modulation can be directly modulated by controlling the LD injection current thereby eliminating the need for PZT components.

This work designs an eighteen-channel bidirectional Intensity Modulation with Direct Detection (IM/DD) Wavelength Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) system. The proposed system meets the requirement of the ITU-T 5G fronthaul link suggested design in G-series Recommendations-Supplement 66. The newly designed system, with a 25Gb/s/λ data rate (450Gbps as a system capacity), has been tested and simulated using OptiSystem V.19 software. The system has been evaluated by the BER with respect to variable the optical span and CW laser power. Based on the ITU-T recommendations, the simulation results demonstrate that this system might be used as an F1 and as an Fx 5G fronthaul link for functional split choices starting from options 1 to 7a. These options are required under 25Gbps/λ for each upstream and downstream link direction. Furthermore, the proposed system utilized a bidirectional single-mode optical fiber within short optical spans of up to 10 km. The proposed system is characterized by a low-cost, simple, DSP-free and amplifier-free system with a reasonable system capacity.

원자력 발전소에서 사용되는 연료의 효율을 증가시키기 위해서는 반응로에서 연소된 연료에 잔존하는 미량의 란탄족 (lanthanide)과 악티늄족 (actinide) 원소를 측정하고, 동위원소 성분비를 분석하는 작업이 필요하다. 이러한 미량원소 측정에는 흡수분광학 (absorption spectroscopy) 방법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 최근 들어 단일 종 모드 (single-longitudinal mode) 반도체 레이저가 개발되면서 미량원소 분석을 위한 분광 기술이 급속히 발전하고 있다. 반도체 레이저는 동작시킬 때 전력소모가 적고, 설치 공간이 작다는 점 때문에 현장 적용이 용이하므로 미량원소 측정 연구의 광원으로 많이 활용되고 있다.

A new pathlength deviation detection technique which is composed of michelson interferometer is described and verified experimentally. The technique uses a sub-threshold biased visible laser diode of 20$\mu$m coherence length as a low-coherent light source. And for zeroth-order fringe(which is the largest among fringes) identification we used a piezoelectric transducer with a large modulation smplitude, which enables without the need of constant velocity scanning, to distinguish reflection surfaces separated by more than 10$\mu$m with a resolution of less than half-wavelength.

Utilizing self-phase modulation effects of a dispersion-shifted fiber and delay-line characteristics of two gratings, mode-locked 80 ps pulses at 1.319${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ wavelength from a Nd: YAG laser are compressed down to 2.1 ps. These pulses are further compressed down to 340 fs using higher order soliton effects in a common single mode fiber.

The Ta/TaN multilayer structure with repeating layers of a poly-crystalline Ta layer of high ductility and a TaN layer of high hardness is expected to exhibit toughness. This paper reports the results on the hardness and the adhesion strength of Ta/TaN multilayers and compositional gradient Ta/TaN layers deposited on the high speed steel substrate by reactive sputtering as a function of annealing temperature. The TaN film deposited with the $N_2$/Ar ratio of 0.4 in the reactive sputtering process exhibits the highest crystallinity, and the highest hardness and the results of scratch test of the Ta/TaN multilayers. The hardness and adhesion strength of the Ta/TaN multilayers becomes deteriorated with increasing the annealing temperature in the heat treatment right after depositing the layers. Therefore, post-annealing treatments are not desirable in the case of the Ta/TaN multilayers from the standpoint of mechanical properties. Also the hardness of Ta/TaN multilayers increases with decreasing the compositional modulation wavelength, but the adhesion property of the layers is nearly independent of the wavelength. On the other hand, the compositional gradient Ta/TaN film exhibits the highest hardness and the value of scratch test for the post-annealing temperatures of 20$0^{\circ}C$ and 40$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. This tendency of the compositional gradient Ta/TaN films differs from that of the Ta/TaN multilayers.

In this paper, we numerically investigated the optimum pump light power best compensating for pulse distortion due to both chromatic dispersion and self phase modulation (SPM) as a function of channel input power in 8 channel ${\times}$ 40 Gbps wavelength division multiplexing (WDM systems. Also we investigated the allowable maximum channel input power dependence on modulation format and fiber dispersion coefficient in the various pump light power of OPC. The considered WDM transmission system is based on path-averaged intensity approximation (PAIA) mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) compensation method, which has highly-nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber (HNL-SDF) as nonlinear medium of optical phase conjugator (OPC) in the mid-way of total transmission line. We confirmed that optimal pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC depend on modulation format, initial channel input power, total transmission length and fiber dispersion. But optimal pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC must be selected to make power conversion ratio to almost unity. And we confirmed that, if we allow a 1 dB eye opening penalty (EOP), the tolerable maximum channel input power is increased by using RZ than NRZ as modulation format when pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC is not optimal value but another values.
