The use of a fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (FFPI) as an optical current transducer is demonstrated. A conventional inductive pickup coil converts the time-varying current I(t) being measured to a voltage waveform V(t) applied across a piezeolectric strip to which the FFPI is bonded. The strip experiences a longitudinal expansion and contraction, resulting in an optical phase shift ${\phi}(t)$ in the fiber proportional to V(t). This phase shift is measured using a frequency-modulated semiconductor light source, photodiodes to monitor the reflected light from the FFPI and the laser power, and a digital signal processor. Calibration routines compute V(t) and I(t) from the measured phase shift at a l KHz rate. Response to 60 Hz ac over the design range 0-1300A rms is characterized Transient response of the FFPI transducer is also measured.

We have constructed a disp1acerrent sensor for measuring dynamic magnetostriction of an arrvrphous ribbon under alternating magnetic field using fiber optic Fabry-Perot interferorreter. The signal of the sensor was depen¬dent on the index matching oil and the optical isolator. The resolution of the sensor was $30{\AA}$ and the measured peak to peak magnetostriction of the amorphous ribbon $Fe_{81}B_{13.5}Si_{3.5}C_{2}$ was $28{\times}10^{-6}$.

We demonstrate a simple method to generate a stable 40 GHz pulse train at 1550 nm by spectral filtering of a 10 GHz mode.locked pulse source using a fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (FFPI). A high finesse FFPI with a 40 GHz free spectral range blocks successfully unwanted spectral components of a 10 GHz pulse source and passes only 40 GHz spaced spectral lines ensuring pulse repetition-frequency quadruplication of the input pulses.

An optical phase modulator is fabricated in GaAs/AlGaAs doble heterostructure wafer grown by MOCVD. A self-aligned process, in which the same photoresist pattern is used for both the waveguide etching and the insulation layer formation, is developed and is found to be very useful, Fabry-Perot interference technique is applied to the measurement and the phase modulation efficiency is measured to be 22.5$^{\circ}$/Vmm at 1.31 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for TE polarization.

We report on the frequency response of microwave signal processing networks using optical fiber circuits. Microwave frequency rejection filters using Mach-Zehnder interferometer and Fabry-Perot interferometer are modelled theoretically and tested experimentally. Graphical representation method provides a simple tool for computating single mode fiber delay-line microwave filters. The calculated results are in good agreement with experimental results. A 36dB microwave frequency rejection filter is also demonstrated.

In this paper, we have developed wavelength swept laser system for the swept source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT). A laser is constructed by using the two SOAs parallel configuration, fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter(FFP-TF). The wavelength sweeps are repetitively generated with the repetition period of 50Hz. The wavelength tuning range of the laser is more than FWHM of 80nm centered at the wavelength of 1310nm and the line-width of the source is 0.12 nm.

The acoustic properties of anti-inflammatory egonol were investigated by using micro-Brillouin scattering spectroscopy, by use of a 6-pass tandem Fabry-Perot interferometer and an optical microscope specially modified for spectroscopic purposes. The measured Brillouin spectrum was composed of a central peak centered at zero and a Brillouin doublet arising from the longitudinal acoustic waves, i.e. propagating density fluctuations. For the first time, the glass transition of egonol was identified to be about $5^{\circ}C$ at which the Brillouin peak position and the half width showed abrupt changes. The substantial damping of acoustic phonons of egonol near the glass transition temperature indicated that the contribution of internal relaxation processes such as small-amplitude librations of side chains to the damping of acoustic phonons may be substantial depending on the internal structure of molecules.

EFPI (extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer) 센서를 이용해 복합재료의 파손 신호를 취득하기 위해서는 파손 신호에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 주파수의 열적, 기계적 정적 변형에 의해 발생하는 위상 변화를 보상해 주는 기술이 필요하다. 또한 센서의 민감도를 최적화하기 위해 출력 신호의 위상을 Quadrature 지점에 유지시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서는 EFPI 센서 시스템의 출력 신호위상을 일정하게 유지시킬 수 있는 안정화 제어 시스템을 개발하였다. 안정화 제어 시스템은 광대역 파장 레이저 광원, 가변 F-P (Fabry-Perot) 필터 그리고 필터를 제어한 수 있는 전자 회로시스템으로 구성하였다. 개발된 시스템의 위상 제어 성능을 평가하기 위해 복합재료 시편의 인장 실험을 수행하여 인장 변형에 의해 발생하는 위상 변화를 개발된 시스템을 이용해 Quadrature 지점에 일정하게 유지할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 연필심 파손 실험을 통해 개발된 시스템이 파손 신호를 잘 취득할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A high-speed signal processor for Fabry-Perot interferometric sensors using modified ramp modulation is implemented. The main idea for the signal processing is to find a modulation waveform that could induce a linear frequency change in a laser diode to linearize the relationship between the optical phase shift and measurand. It is found that the waveform could be modeled as the addition of a linear term and an exponential term. A signal processor adopting modified ramp modulation technique is implemented and evaluated to find linearity, drift and random walk of $<{\pm}1.5%$, $0.4^{\circ}C$, $5.28{\times}10^{-4}^{\circ}C/{\sqrt{Hz}}$.
