Fabrication of a graded index profile was possible via photochemical reaction of cinnamoyl groups with 350 nm wavelength UV light to form crosslinked structures. Such structural change may induce the change in the refractive index. In order to generate graded index profile in the PMMA polymer optical fiber (POF) with cinnamoyl groups by photochemistry, a methyl methacrylate monomer containing a cinnamoyl functional group in the side chain were prepared. This monomer was then copolymerized with methyl methacrylate with various compositions not only to utilize advantages of poly(methyl methacrylate) but also to overcome the drawbacks of the cinnamate homopolymer. Changes of refractive indices were investigated with various contents of cinnamoyl group and varying irradiation time. Large change in the refractive index (${\Delta}{\approx}0.01$) and its proper profile shape ($g{\approx}2.2$) can be obtained by changing irradiation time.

This research deals with the analytical solution of a curved beam with different shapes made of functionally graded materials (FGM's). It was assumed that modulus of elasticity is graded along the thickness direction of curved beam based on a power function. The beam was loaded under pure bending. Using the linear theory of elasticity, the general relation for radial distribution of radial and circumferential stresses of arbitrary cross section was derived. The effect of nonhomogeneity was considered on the radial distribution of circumferential stress. This behavior can be investigated for positive and negative values of nonhomogeneity index. The novelty of this study is application of the obtained results for different combination of material properties and cross sections. Achieved results indicate that employing different nonhomogeneity index and selection of various types of cross sections (rectangular, triangular or circular) can control the distribution of radial and circumferential stresses as designer want and propose new solutions by these options. Increasing the nonhomogeneity index for positive or negative values of nonhomogeneity index and for various cross sections presents different behaviors along the thickness direction. In order to validate the present research, the results of this research can be compared with previous result for reachable cross sections and non homogeneity index.

Here, the axisymmetric free flexural vibrations and thermal stability behaviors of functionally graded spherical caps are investigated employing a three-noded axisymmetric curved shell element based on field consistency approach. The formulation is based on first-order shear deformation theory and it includes the in-plane and rotary inertia effects. The material properties are graded in the thickness direction according to the power-law distribution in terms of volume fractions of the constituents of the material. The effective material properties are evaluated using homogenization method. A detailed numerical study is carried out to bring out the effects of shell geometries, power law index of functionally graded material and base radius-to-thickness on the vibrations and buckling characteristics of spherical shells.

Here, the dynamic instability characteristics of aero-thermo-mechanically stressed functionally graded plates are investigated using finite element procedure. Temperature field is assumed to be a uniform distribution over the plate surface and varied in thickness direction only. Material properties are assumed to be temperature dependent and graded in the thickness direction according to simple power law distribution. For the numerical illustrations, silicon nitride/stainless steel is considered as functionally graded material. The aerodynamic pressure is evaluated based on first-order high Mach number approximation to the linear potential flow theory. The boundaries of the instability region are obtained using the principle of Bolotin's method and are conveniently represented in the non-dimensional excitation frequency-load amplitude plane. The variation dynamic instability width is highlighted considering various parameters such as gradient index, temperature, aerodynamic and mechanical loads, thickness and aspect ratios, and boundary condition.

We propose a simple nondestructive method to obtain refractive-index profiles of a graded-index (GRIN) light-focusing rod by means of a diffraction grating. In our proposed method, a laser beam is illuminated through a diffraction grating perpendicular to the axis of the GRIN lens and the separation between the zeroth and first-order diffraction peaks is measured and analyzed. The results demonstrate that the refractive-index profiles of commercially available GRIN lenses can be successfully reconstructed.

본 논문에서는 향후 태양전지 반사방지막에 적용여부를 알기 위하여 굴절률 분포에 따른 반사방지막의 성능을 분석하였다. 기존논문에서 제시되었던 1차, 3차 및 5차 함수의 굴절률 분포를 6층 구조의 두께 180 nm 반사방지막에 적용하고 각 굴절률 분포에 대한 반사율을 계산하고 비교하였다. 또한 새로운 구배형 굴절률(graded index) 구조를 제안하였고, 제안한 구조와 기존의 1차, 3차 및 5차 함수의 반사율과 비교하였다. 그 결과로써, 굴절률 분포가 고차 함수로 갈수록 반사율이 대체적으로 감소하였고, 구배형 굴절률 분포의 경우는 짧은 파장대(500 nm ~ 700 nm 이하)에서는 1차, 3차 및 5차 함수보다 더 높은 반사율을 보였고, 긴 파장대(700 nm 이상 ~ 800 nm)에서는 더 낮은 반사율을 보였다. 따라서 긴 파장대에서는 구배형 굴절률 분포가 기존의 1차, 3차, 5차 함수인 경우보다 더 좋은 반사방지막이 될 수 있다는 것을 발견했고, 이 결과는 긴 적색 가시광선에서 적외선 영역에 적용되는 광소자 및 광필터에 적용 가능하리라 판단된다.

광섬유의 침입 감지기능을 개발하기 위하여 다중모드 GRIN(graded-Index) 광섬유의 휨에 의한 광섬유내의 광전파 특성변화를 고찰하였다. 다중모드 CRIN 광섬유의 data파는 기본(fundamental) 모드로, 침입 감시용 감시파는 높은 차수의 모드로 동시에 전파 되게 하고, 광섬유의 휨(bending)에 의한 데이타 유출시도는 높은 차수 모드의 감시파의 감쇠를 가져오고, 결국 수신측의 경보를 작동하도록 한다. 또한 일정한 곡률반경으로 감겨진 광섬유에 기본 모드만 선별적으로 주입된 경우에 있어서, 다중모드 GRIN 광섬유 내에서의 광파의 전파과정을 이론적으로 해석하고, 광섬유가 휘게 피는 경우 여러 모드 사이에 결합(coupling)이 생겨나게 되는데, 광섬유가 감겨진 곡률반경을 변경해가면서 결합되는 기본모드의 power 변화를 수치해석을 이용한 프로그램 시뮬레이션을 통하여 조사하였다. 이 연구결과는 광섬유의 휨에 의하여 방출되는 데이타 도청 및 침입자 감지에 다중모드 GRIN 광섬유 활용 가능성과 광섬유의 곡률반경이 1cm 정도가지는 Asawa-Taylor의 모델[4]이 정당함을 보였다.

This study investigated a graded-refractive-index (GRIN) coating pattern capable of improving the light extraction efficiency of GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The planar LEDs had total internal reflection thanks to the large difference in refractive index between the LED semiconductor and the surrounding medium (air). The main goal of this paper was to reduce the trapped light inside the LED by controlling the refractive index using various compositions of (TiO₂)_x(SiO₂)_1-x in GRIN LEDs consisting of five dielectric layers. Several types of multilayer LEDs were simulated and it was determined the transmittance value of the LEDs with many layers was greater than the LEDs with less layers. Then, the specific ranges of incident angles of the individual layers which depend on the refractive index were evaluated. According to theoretical calculations, the light extraction efficiency (LEE) of the five-layer GRIN is 25.29 %, 28.54 % and 30.22 %, respectively. Consequently, the five-layer GRIN LEDs patterned enhancement outcome LEE over the reference planar LEDs. The results suggest the increased light extraction efficiency is related to the loss of Fresnel transmission and the release of the light mode trapped inside the LED chip by the graded-refractive-index.
