본 논문에서는 도파로층이 1.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ InGaAsP긴 파장 가변 BT(butt-coupled)-DBR(distributed bragg reflector)-LD(laser diode)를 제작하고, 특성을 측정하였다. Butt 결합 성장면의 성장조건을 건식식각과 선택식각 방법과 MOCVD(metal organic chemical vapor deposition)성장으로 최적화 한 후 활성층과 도파로층의 결합 효율을 측정한 결과 결합 효율이 85% 이상으로 나타났으며, 제작된 BT-DBR-LD에 연속전류를 인가 했을 때, 평균 임계전류는 약 21 ㎃, 최대 광출력이 25 ㎽ 이상으로 나타났다. 또한 위상제어 영역과 DBR영역에 각각 25㎃와 50 ㎃의 전류를 주입하여도 급격한 광출력 변화와 포화현상이 나타나지 않았다 이때 최대 파장 가변 폭은 7.4 nm, SMSR비는 40 ㏈이상으로 나타났다.

본 논문에서는 광의 결합 메커니즘이 다른 ITG(integrated-twin-guide) 와 BT(butt coupled) 구조를 가지는 두 종류의 파장 가변 DBR-LD의 제작공정과 성능에 대해서 기술하였다. 두 종류의 DBR-LD는 PBH(planar buried heterostructure) 구조론 가지며, MOVPE 성장으로 제작하였다. 제작된 DBR-LD 광출력 특성을 측정한 결과 BT-DBR-LD가 ITG-DBR-LD보다 임계전류 변화폭, 광출력 변화 폭, 기울기 효율에서 2배 이상의 우수한 특성을 나타내었다. 그리고, 준 연속 파장 가변 특성은 BT-DBR-LD가 7.2nm, ITG-DBR-LD가 7.4nm 이며, SMSR이 35dB 이상으로 우수하게 나타났다. 이와 같이 BT DBR-LD가 특성이 우수한 것은 BT 구조가 ITG 구조보다 높은 결합 효율을 나타내기 때문이다.

We present the fabrication and performance of wavelength tunable butt coupled (BT) sampled-grating (SG) distributed bragg reflector (DBR) - planar buried heterostructure (PBH) laser diodes (LD). The fabricated LD showed the high optical output power due to the high coupling efficiency between active and passive components by the BT coupling methods. The series resistance and diode ideality factor of LD were measured to be 3.7 $\Omega$ and 1.35, respectively. The average threshold current was 25 ㎃. The output powers of BT-SG DBR-PBH-LD were obtained to be as high as 12.3 and 24.56 ㎽ at 100 and 200 ㎃, respectively. The maximum wavelength tuning range was about 31 nm and the side mode suppression ratio was about 37 dB.

We have demonstrated a high-power widely tunable sampled grating distributed Bragg reflector (SGDBR) laser integrated monolithically with a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) having a lateral tapered waveguide, which is the first to emit a fiber-coupled output power of more than 10 dBm using a planar buried heterostructure (PBH). The output facet reflectivity of the integrated SOA using a lateral tapered waveguide and two-layer AR coating of $TiO_2\;and\;SiO_2$ was lower than $3\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;over$ a wide bandwidth of 85 nm. The spectra of 40 channels spaced by 50 GHz within the tuning range of 33 nm were obtained by a precise control of SG and phase control currents. A side-mode suppression ratio of more than 35 dB was obtained in the whole tuning range. Fiber-coupled output power of more than 11 dBm and an output power variation of less than 1 dB were obtained for the whole tuning range.

본 논문에서는 저 전류 및 고 효율로 동작하는 planar buried heterostructure(PBH) 구조로 sampled grating(SG) distributed bragg reflector(DBR) laser diode(LD)를 처음으로 설계하고 제작하였다. 특히 활성층과 도파로층의 높은 결합 효율을 얻기 위해 건식 식각과 습식 식각을 같이 사용하여 결함이 거의 없는 butt-coupling(BT) 계면을 형성하였다. 제작된 파장 가변레이저의 평균 발진 임계전류는 약 12 mA로 ridged waveguide(RWG)와 buried ridge stripe(BRS) 구조로 제작된 결과 보다 두 배 정도 낮게 나타났으며, 광 출력은 200 mA에서 약 20 mW 정도로 RWG 와 BRS 보다 각각 9 mW, 13 mW 더 우수하게 나타났다. 그리고 파장 가변 영역을 측정한 결과 44 nm로 설계결과와 일치하였으며, 최대 파장 가변 영역 안에서 출력 변화 폭이 5 dB 이내로서 RWG 구조의 9 dB보다 출력변화 폭이 4 dB 적게 나타났다. 전체 파장 가변 영역에서 SMSR이 35 dB 이상으로 나타났다.

Tobacco plants absorb cadmium from soil and accumulate it in high concentrations in their leaves. Additionally, a significant portion of the cadmium contained in cigarettes passes into the smoke. Cadmium is known to be a toxic and carcinogenic compound that has harmful effects on the human body due to smoking. In this study, the concentrations of cadmium in the Ky3R4F reference cigarette and two commercial cigarettes were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Each cigarette sample was partitioned into a tobacco rod and filter and then analyzed in order to determine the concentration of cadmium. The concentrations of cadmium in the mainstream smoke, ash, residue, and cigarette butt were also analyzed after the cigarettes were smoked under ISO smoking conditions. Transfer rates of the cadmium from the tobacco rod to the mainstream smoke, ash, and cigarette butt were 0.8 ~ 5%, 17 ~ 22%, and 5 ~ 7%, respectively. As a result, we estimated that the sidestream smoke contained about 70% of the cadmium from the tobacco rod.

Laser beam welding is more advantageous compared to conventional methods. Titanium/Aluminium dissimilar alloy thin sheet metals are difficult to weld due to large difference in melting point. The performance of the weldment depends upon interlayer formation and distribution of intermetallics. During welding, aluminium gets lost at the temperature below the melting point of titanium. Therefore, it is needed to improve a new metal joining techniques between these two alloys. The present work is carried for welding TI6AL4V and AA2024 alloy by using Nd:YAG Pulsed laser welding unit. The performance of the butt welded interlayer structures are discussed in detail using hardness test and SEM. Test results reveal that interlayer fracture is caused near aluminium side due to low strength at the weld joint.

An optical temperature sensor based on the etched planar waveguide Bragg grating is developed and its performance is explored using theoretical and experimental methods. The planar waveguide is designed and fabricated using optical lithography and wet chemical etching. An efficient butt coupled optical fiber is used to examine the spectral characteristics of the grating sensor, and to investigate the grating parameters. The typical bandwidth and reflectivity of the surface etched grating has been ~0.2 nm and ~7%, respectively, at a wavelength of ~1,552 nm. The temperature-induced wavelength change of the optical sensor is found to be slightly non-linear over ${\sim}200^{\circ}C$ temperature range. Theoretical models for the grating response of the sensor based on waveguide and classical laminated plate deformation theories agree with experiments to within acceptable tolerance.

We created a new design for an Nd-doped clad-pumped silica fiber laser to enhance the pump absorption and lasing efficiency for a butt-coupled, end-pumped scheme. Two concatenated adiabatic tapers formed within the laser cavity simultaneously removed higher order modes and were spliced to conventional single mode fibers. We theoretically analyzed mode propagation along the composite cavity and experimentally achieved continuous wave oscillation in the $LP_{01}$ mode at $1.06\;{\mu}m$ and a laser output power of over 820 mW with a slope efficiency of 27%.

Tunable 레이저와 편광기를 이용하여, TE/TM 편광된 빛을 광수신소자에 butt-coupling 방법으로 입사하여 소자의 파장 특성을 측정하였다. 제작된 소자는 1480 nm 와 1550 nm 파장 영역을 분리, 수광할 수 있음을 보였다.
