We propose the separation algorithm to simultaneously measure two-dimensional refractive index distribution and thickness profile of transparent samples using three wavelengths. The optical system was based on the Mach-zehnder interferometer with LD (Laser Diode)-based multi-wavelength sources. A LCR (Liquid Crystal Retarder) was used to obtain interference images at four phase states and then the optical phase of the object is calculated by four-bucket algorithm. Experimental results with a glass rod are provided at the different wavelengths of 635nm, 660nm and 675nm. The refractive indices of the sample are distributed with accuracy of less than 0.0005 and the thickness profile of sample was cylindrical type. This result demonstrates that it is possible to separate refractive index distribution and thickness profile of samples in two dimensions using the proposed algorithm.

Recently, an optical disc system has been proposed using blue laser diode, high NA objective lens and groove only disc structure. A new method is needed to readout CD and DVD in this blue system. In order to readout CD and DVD in HD-DVD system, we adopted dual-lenses actuator in consideration of optical utilization efficiency, optical performance and insurance of sufficient W.D (working distance). This dual-lenses actuator has two objectives in radial direction, one is for CD/DVD and the other is for HD-DVD. We had to solve the induced problems of DC tilt increase, $2^{nd}$ resonance deterioration and AC sensitivity drop caused by disposing two lenses in an actuator. Especially, to solve AC sensitivity drop, we introduced two 2-pole magnets and separated focus and track magnetic circuits. Consequently we presented that dual-lenses actuator has been possessed good performance. And we measured eye patterns of CD, DVD and HD-DVD by using HD-DVD optical pick-up with dual-lenses actuator.

Fiber optic BOTDA (Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis) sensor was developed to be able to detect intrusion effect through several ten kilometer optical fiber. Fiber optic BOTDA sensor was constructed with 1 laser diode and 2 electro-optic modulators. The intrusion detection experiment was peformed by the strain inducing set-up installed on an optical table to simulating an intrusion effect. In the result of this experiment, the intrusion effect was well detected as the distance resolution of 3 m through the fiber length of about 4.81 km during 1.5 seconds.

Wireless optical communication is expected for high-speed optical communication in the areas of saturated optical fiber communication and low population density. In this paper, we present an optical transmitter system for wireless optical communication with new design concepts different from the usual optical imaging system. The specifications are the following: the source is a laser diode(LD) of wavelength 830 nm in which the divergent angle from the tangential plane differs from that from the sagittal plane. Here, the requested transmission distances are very long range such as 500 m to 1500 m and beam diameter is 3 m at the receiver with symmetrical energy distribution. For the evaluation characteristics of this kind of non-imaging system, two optical quantities, the relative illumination distribution and energy transfer efficiency, are numerically calculated through lots of ray tracing.

We have developed a slab-type Nd:YAG gain module based on the techniques of conduction cooling and end pumping. The Nd:YAG slab is end-capped on both ends by undoped pure YAG and is pumped through the end-caps by stacked arrays of laser diode bars. The slab's surfaces of total internal reflection are in contact on both sides with microchannel cooling blocks which are cooled by water circulation. The power oscillator based on the gain module generates more than 400 W at 1-kW pumping with a slope efficiency of 55%. The small-signal gain of the gain module is 10 in a single zig-zag pass, and the amplified beam shows a near diffraction-limited beam quality.

In this paper, an approach of modeling the optical interconnection system by SPICE simulation is presented. SPICE simulations with equivalent circuit models for optical devices are performed in a stable manner. From the simulated results, eye diagrams for receiver output and BER are obtained. Timing jitter due to laser diode turn-on delay effects can be found under various bias conditions. Using this approach, various system parameters such as bit rate, BER, dissipated transmitter power, and bias conditions can be optimized. It is expected that this approach will find useful applications such as Gigabit Ethernet and ATM.

In this study, we constructed a preview-sensing visual sensor system for weld seam tracking in real time in GMA welding. A sensor part consists of a CCD camera, a band-pass filter, a diode laser system with a cylindrical lens, and a vision board for inter frame process. We used a commercialized robot system which includes a GMA welding machine. To extract the weld seam we used a inter frame process in vision board from that we could remove the noise due to the spatters and fume in the image. Since the image was very reasonable by using the inter frame process, we could use the simplest way to extract the weld seam from the image, such as first differential and central difference method. Also we used a moving average method to the successive position data of weld seam for reducing the data fluctuation. In experiment the developed robot system with visual sensor could be able to track a most popular weld seam, such as a fillet-joint, a V-groove, and a lap-joint of which weld seam include planar and height directional variation.

고출력 레이저 다이오드는 광 디스크, 고체 레이저 여기, 광섬유 증폭기, 레이저 프린터, 위성 간 통신 등의 여러분야에 응용되고 있고. 고효율, 저가격, 초소형등과 같은 장점으로 수요가 점점 증가하고 있다. 최근 레이저 다이오드의 광출력 향상 및 열적 안성성를 위해 양자점(Quantum Dot) 응용에 대해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 양자점 기반 레이저 다이오드는 전자가 3차원으로 구속되어 있어 열적 안정성이 우수할 뿐만 아니라 낮은 문턱전류밀도로 인해 열 발생이 적어 광출력 감소 현상을 지연시킬 수 있다. 또한 발광면에서의 재결합 확률이 낮아 표면재결합에 의한 신뢰성 열화 문제를 해결할 수 있어 고신뢰성의 레이저 다이오드를 개발할 수 있다. 고출럭 808 nm 양자점 레이저 다이오드 개발을 위해서는 레이저 다이오드의 활성 영역인 양자점 구조에 대한 연구가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 최적화된 고출력 808 nm 양자점 레이저 다이오드 에피 성장을 위해 에피 구조에 대한 2D 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, 양자점 밀도 및 에피층 변화에 따른 최적 양자점 구조에 대한 연구를 수행하였다.

In this work, we report several experimental data capable of evaluating the phase transition characteristics of (InTe)x(GeTe)y (x = 0.1, 0.3, y =1) pseudo-binary thin films. (InTe)x(GeTe)y phase change thin films have been prepared by thermal evaporator. The crystallization characteristics of amorphous (InTe)x(GeTe)y thin films were investigated by using nano-pulse scanner with 658 nm laser diode (power : 1~17 mW, pulse duration : 10~460 ns) and XRD measurement. It was found that the crystalline speed of In-Ge-Te thin films are faster than $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$[1] and also the crystalline temperature is higher. Changes in the optical transmittance of as-deposited and annealed films were measured using a UV-VIS-IR spectrophotometer and four-point probe was used to measure the sheeresistance of InGeTe films annealed at different temperature.
