We have prepared a phenothiazine-based nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophore that displays a fairly high microscopic nonlinearity through intramolecular charge transfer. The phenothiazine unit plays important roles of contributing its high electron donating ability and connecting the resonance pathway through a conjugative effect in the cyclized ring adjacent to the aromatic ring. Theoretical calculations and an absorption spectroscopic study provided useful information concerning the microscopic nonlinearity of the chromophores. We investigated the electro-optic (EO) properties of the guest-host systems in amorphous polycarbonate containing the synthesized chromophores at different concentrations under different poling temperatures. A real-time pole and probe method provided a much greater amount of information regarding how the EO properties can arise and how they can be optimized.

Mitsunobu 반응을 이용하여 전기광학계수 $\gamma_{33}$크고 열적 .시간적으로 안정적인 폴리이미드(polyimide)계고분자 용액인 PI-SOT(폴리이미드계 4-[N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl)amino­4'­($\beta$­cyano-$\beta$­methylsulfonyl)vinyl]azobenzene)고분자를 합성하였다. C.C. Teng의 단순반사법을 이용하여 코로나 폴링으로 극성 배향시킨 PI-SOT 박막의 전기광학계수 $\gamma_{33}$의 열안정성 및 시간안정성을 파장 632.8 nm와 852nm에서 측정하였다. 그 결과 상온에서 전기광학계수$\gamma_{33}$은 파장 632.8nm서 25.12 pm/V이고, 852 nmsns 5.40pm/V였다. 이 값들은 상온에서 60일 이상 장기간 안정적으로 유지되었으며, $100^{\circ}C$의 고온에서도 10시간내에서 6% 이내로 안정된 값을 유지하였다.

(110) ZnTe 결정을 사용한 광정류(Optical Rectification)법에 의한 테라헤르츠파의 발생과 자유공간 전광 샘플링(Free-Space Electro-Optic Sampling; FS-EOS)법에 의한 테라헤르츠파의 검출특성에 대해서 보고한다. ZnTe 결정에 펌프용 레이저광에 대한 반사방지막 코팅을 실시함으로서 테라헤르츠파 신호크기가 $27\%$ 증가함을 알 수 있었다. ZnTe 결정의 두께가 얇을수록 테라헤르츠파의 신호의 크기는 작으나 광대역의 주파수를 가진 스펙트럼이 얻어졌다. 또한 레이저광의 편광방향과 ZnTe 결정의 (001)축사이의 각도에 따른 테라헤르츠파의 신호 변화, 펌프광 출력에 따른 테라헤르츠파의 신호크기 변화 등에 대한 특성이 조사되었다.

This study comprehensively reviewed four types of integrated-optic electric-field sensors based on titanium diffused lithium-niobate waveguides: symmetric and asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers, 1×2 directional couplers, and Y-fed balanced-bridge Mach-Zehnder interferometers. First, we briefly explain the crystal properties and electro-optic effect of lithium niobate and the waveguide fabrication process. We theoretically analyzed the key parameters and operating principles of each sensor and antennas. We also describe and compare the design, simulation, implementation, and performance tests: dc and ac characteristics, frequency response, dynamic range, and sensitivity. The experimental results revealed that the sensitivity of the sensor based on the Y-fed balanced bridge Mach-Zehnder interferometer (YBB-MZI) was higher than that of the other types of sensors.

For monitoring of railway structures, optical fiber sensors are very convenient. The fiber sensors are very small and do not disturb the structural properties. They also have several merits such as electro-magnetic immunity, long signal transmission, good accuracy and multiplicity of one sensor line. Strain measurement technologies with fiber optic sensors have been investigated as a part of smart structure. In this paper, we investigated the possibilities of fiber optic sensor application to the monitoring of railway structures. We expect that the fiber optic sensors have much less noises than electrical strain gauges because of electro-magnetic immunity while railways operate electric power of 22000 volts. Fiber optic sensors showed good durability and long term stability for continuous monitoring of the railway structures as well as good response to the structural behaviors during construction.

최근에 구조물의 안전 감시를 위하여 광섬유 센서를 개발하기 위한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구조물의 넓은 면적에 분포되어있는 변형률을 한 개의 광섬유 라인으로 측정하기 위한 광섬유 BOTDA(Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis) 센서를 개발하는 연구를 수행하였다. 광섬유 BOTDA 센서는 2개의 광전 변조기 (electro-optic modulator)를 사용하여 간단하게 구성하였다. 광섬유의 변형률 측정실험을 통하여 광섬유의 전체길이 4.8km중에 변형률이 가해진 10m 구간의 변형률을 200회 평균화 처리된 신호로부터 브릴루앙 주파수 천이를 측정함에 의하여 정확하게 측정할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 삼성전자의 단일모드 광섬유의 경우 변형률 측정 실험을 통하여 변형률 감지도가 4.81 MHz/0.01%임을 알 수 있었다.

The proton conserving effect of diffusion with self-aligned SiO2-cladding is investigated by infrared transmission spectra. Based on the proton conserving effect, proton-diffused channel waveguides with self-aligned SiO2-cladding substrates. And an electro-optic cutoff modulator with self aligned electrode that utilizes a single-mode proton-diffused channel waveguide in a Y-cut XX-propagating LiNbO3 substrate is fabricated. Over 20 dB extinction has been achieved with applied voltage of 15V.

We have achieved an improved stability of an analog electro-optic effect in FLC/polymer composite films. The optimization of device depends on both the composition of the FLC/polymer mixture and the energy of UV irradiation. This device exhibits continuous gray scales and the mechanical stability against external forces.

Recently, competition between LC modes for LC TVs becomes high. In this paper, status of each mode is briefly reviewed with commenting on its electro-optic characteristics and possible application fields. Further, to understand effects of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in nematic liquid crystal on electro-optic characteristic and orientation of the LC, CNT-doped NLC cells are made and evaluated. The hysterisis studies of voltage-dependent capacitance show that the amount of residual dc is greatly reduced due to ion trapping by CNTS.
