새로운 고유치 문제에 기초한 모드 전송선로 이론 (Modal Transmission-Line Theory: MTLT))을 이용하여 blazed 격자 구조형 방향성 결합기 (B-GADC)의 광학 특성과 채널사이의 전력전달을 자세하게 분석하였다. 설계한 B-GADC의 결함효율을 분석하기 위하여 격자주기와 파장에 따라 변하는 quasi-TE 모드와 quasi-TM 모드의 분산곡선을 수치 해석하였으며, blazing 특성이 GADC의 결합효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 대칭형, 톱니형 그리고 비대칭형 blazed 격자구조를 설계하고 평가하였다. 수치해석 결과, blazed 격자구조가 대칭형에서 비대칭형으로 변함에 따라 최대 전력전송을 위한 최소 간격 조건을 만족하는 격자주기는 줄어들었으며 결합길이는 반대로 늘어나는 것을 확인하였다.

One dimensional (1D) grating has been fabricated (using focused ion beam) on 50 nm gold (Au) film deposited on higher refractive index Gallium phosphate (GaP) substrate. The sub-wavelength periodic metal nano structuring enable to couple photon to couple with the surface plasmons (SPs) excited by them. These grating devices provide the efficient control on the SPs which propagate on the interface of noble metal and dielectric whose frequency is dependent on the bulk electron plasma frequency of the metal. For a fixed periodicity (${\Lambda}=700 nm$) and slit width (w = 100 nm) in the grating device, the efficiency of SPP excitation is about 40% compared to the transmission in the near-field. Efficient coupling of SPs with photon in dielectric provide field localisation on sub-wavelength scale which is needed in Heat Assisted Magnetic recording (HAMR) systems. The GaP is also used to emulate Vertical Cavity Surface emitting laser (VCSEL) in order to provide cheaper alternative of light source being used in HAMR technology. In order to understand the underlying physics, far-and near-field results has been compared with the modelling results which are obtained using COMSOL RF module. Apart from this, grating devices of smaller periodicity (${\Lambda}=280nm$) and slit width (w = 22 nm) has been fabricated on GaP substrate which is photoluminescence material to observe amplified spontaneous emission of the SPs at wavelength of 805 nm when the grating device was excited with 532 nm laser light. This observation is unique and can have direct application in light emitting diodes (LEDs).

X-ray grating interferometry has been an active area of research in recent years. In particular, various studies have been carried out for the practical use of the x-ray grating interferometer in medical and industrial fields. For the commercialization of the system, it needs to be optimized for its application. In this study, we have developed a prototype of the compact high energy x-ray grating interferometer of which the high effective energy and compactness is of our primary feature of design. We have designed the Talbot-Lau x-ray interferometer in a symmetrical geometry with an effective energy of 54.3 keV. The system has a source-to-analyzer grating distance of 788.4 mm, which is compact enough for a commercial product. In a normal operation, it took less than ten seconds to acquire a set of phase stepping images. The acquired images had a maximum visibility of about 15%, which is relatively high compared with the visibilities of the other high-energy grating interferometric systems reported so far.

A gutter-shaped U grating is a facility that is installed at the sides of a road to provide pedestrians with a rainwater-free road. The previous studies on this facility focused mainly on the progress of the efforts that are being made to improve its performance and interception efficiency so as to prevent damages in regional areas due to the heavy rains caused by climate change. The studies on its maintenance, however, are still inadequate. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze and compare the life cycle costs and performance evaluations of the steel and magic gratings, which are installed in apartments. The results of the study show that the replacement period and rate of gratings differ depending on where they are installed. The initial capital investment cost of a magic grating installed at a road where many vehicles pass is quite high, but in terms of its maintenance and entire-life-cycle costs, its total expenses are lower than those of a steel grating. The results of this study are expected to serve as preliminary data for the selection of an adequate grating that is suitable for particular places in the design phase of construction projects.

We have proposed and demonstrated a fiber optic RH (relative humidity) sensor based on fiber Bragg grating covered with a polyimide film. As the polyimide film absolves the moisture in the air, its volume expands. As a result, the grating period of the FBG (fiber Bragg grating) covered with a polyimide film becomes wide and the Bragg wavelength is shifted. The sensor is implemented by fixing a 30 ㎛ thickness polyimide film on the surface of an optical fiber grating using an adhesive, and the characteristics of the device according to humidity are analyzed. The fabricated FBG RH sensor showed a high sensitivity of 0.0186 nm/RH% and a wide measurement range from 30% to 90%. The influence of environmental temperature on the characteristics of the RH sensor was also measured and analyzed. The feasibility of commercialization is presented.

편광 선택적 빔 분리 격자는 수많은 광학 정보처리 시스템에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 고효율 플라즈마 편광 빔 분리기 (PBS)를 설계하기 위하여 Littrow 구조에서 Ag 금속 층으로 구성된 소자를 구현하였다. 구현한 PBS는 투과되는 0차 TE 편광과 반사되는 0차 TM 편광에서 높은 회절효율을 달성할 수 있도록 격자깊이 및 격자 비율을 정확한 모드 전송선로 이론 (Modal Transmission-Line Theory)을 사용하여 최적화하였다. 최적화된 결과로부터 PBS는 입사 파장과 각도에 대한 광대역 특성의 장점을 가지고 있으며, TE, TM 편광 모두에 대하여 95% 보다 높은 효율을 나타내었다. 그러므로, 높은 흡광비를 갖는 이 고효율 PBS 광대역 격자는 우수한 광 회절 장치로 사용될 수 있다.

홀로그래픽 부피격자 커플러(VGC : volume grating coupler)는 높은 선택적 결합효율, 건식 제조공정, 콤팩트한 소자 제작이 가능하고 저렴하기 때문에 광연결 기술의 구현 및 응용에 매우 매력적인 소자로 간주되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도파로형 광연결에 적용키 위한 $45^{\circ}$ 격자 경사각을 갖는 도파로 삽입형 입 출력 VGC를 DuPont사의 HRF600-20 홀로그래픽 포토폴리머를 이용하여 설계, 구현하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안한 VGC 소자의 유용성을 입증키 위해 동작파장이 각각 632.8nm 및 1550nm인 VGC를 제작하고 실험결과를 제시하였다. 실험결과 632.8nm 파장에서 동작하는 격자주기가 $0.5{\mu}m$인 단일 VGC의 경우 TE 편광에서 입력 결합효율은 86.6% 이상이고, 1550nm 파장에서 동작하는 격자주기가 $0.73068{\mu}m$인 $1\times2$ VGC의 입력 결합효율은 $\sim90.9%$의 특성을 나타내었다.

구면 거울을 정밀하고 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 위상천이 회절격자 간섭계를 제시한다. 간섭계는 하나의 회절격자를 이용하여 간섭계의 기준광과 측정광을 분할하고, 다시 결합시켜 간섭무늬를 생성시키고 위상천이 시키는 간단한 구조로 설계되었다. 광원으로부터의 광을 큰 수치구경인 고정도의 집속렌즈의 초점에 위치한 회절격자 위에 집속하여 반사회절된 파면을 기준파면과 측정파면으로 사용한다 부가적인 기준면이 없이 회절격자 위의 매우 작은 영역이 기준면을 대신하므로 시스템 오차가 작다. 광섬유 형태의 공초점현미경 구조를 광원과 집속렌즈 사이에 설치하여 집속렌즈와 회절격자사이의 정렬오차를 최소화 하였다. 회절격자를 광축에 수직한 방향으로 이송함으로써 기준파면과 측정파면사이에 상대적인 위상천이를 일으켜서 일련의 위상천이된 간섭무늬를 쉽게 획득할 수 있다. 간섭계를 제작하고, 결상렌즈와 CCD를 이용해서 얻은 위상천이된 대상구면 거울의 간섭무늬들을 해석하여 전체적인 간섭계 시스템의 성능을 평가해 보았다.

This paper investigates the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced longitudinally with either steel bars, molded glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) grating mesh or pultruded glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) grating mesh, under four-point bending. The variables included in this study were the type of concrete (normal weight concrete, perlite concrete and vermiculite concrete), type of the longitudinal reinforcement (steel bars, molded and pultruded GFRP grating mesh) and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio (between 0.007 and 0.035). The influences of these variables on the load-midspan deflection curves, bending stiffness, energy absorption and failure modes were investigated. A total of fifteen beams with a cross-sectional dimension of 160 mm × 210 mm and an overall length of 2400 mm were cast and divided into three groups. The first group was constructed with normal weight concrete and served as a reference concrete. The second and third groups were constructed with perlite concrete and vermiculite concrete, respectively. An innovative type of stirrup was used as shear reinforcement for all beams. The results showed that the ultimate load of the beams reinforced with pultruded GFRP grating mesh ranged between 19% and 38% higher than the ultimate load of the beams reinforced with steel bars. The bending stiffness of all beams was influenced by the longitudinal reinforcement ratio rather than the type of concrete. Failure occurred within the pure bending region which means that the innovative stirrups showed a significant resistance to shear failure. Good agreement between the experimental and the analytical ultimate load was obtained.

A focusing grating coupler (FGC) was not fabricated by the 'Continuous Path Control'writing strategy but by an electron-beam lithography system of more general exposure mode, which matches not only the address grid with the grating period but also an integer multiple of the address grid resolution (5 nm). To more simplify the fabrication, we are able to reduce a process step without large decrease of pattern quality by excluding a conducting material or layer such as metal (Al, Cr, Au), which are deposited on top or bottom of an e-beam resist to prevent charge build-up during e-beam exposure. A grating pitch period and an aperture feature size of the FGC designed and fabricated by e-beam lithography and reactive ion etching were ranged over 384.3 nm to 448.2 nm, and 0.5 $\times$ 0.5 mm$^2$area, respectively. This fabrication method presented will reduce processing time and improve the grating quality by means of a consideration of the address grid resolution, grating direction, pitch size and shapes when exposing. Here our investigations concentrate on the design and efficient fabrication results of the FGC for coupling from slab waveguide to a spot in free space.
