In this paper, to evaluate the design properties of 3D optical multimode interference (MMI) couplers with ultracompact width, modal transmission line theory and effective dielectric method are combined with together. A coupling efficiency based on the composed approach is defined, and the coupling length is numerically determined for the design of 3 dB coupler, cross coupler and bar coupler. The simulation result shows that the designed MMI coupler has a low insertion loss and a high splitting ratio.

According to research currently developed by several authors (including the present ones) a multimode approach to the aeroelastic instability can be appropriate for suspension bridges with very long span and so with close natural frequencies. Extending that research, this paper deals in particular with: i) the role of along-wind modes, underlined also by means of the flutter mode representation; ii) the effects of a variation of the mean wind speed along the span. A characterisation of the response in the time domain by means of an energetic approach is also discussed.

In this paper, we design PHASAR(Phased Array) WDM(Wavelength Dvision Division Multi- and Demultiplexing) filters and evaluate their performance. The PHASAR WDM filter is designed to have flat-passband characteristics by inserting the multimode waveguides between input waveguides and a first star coupler. BPM simulation results show that the excess loss is smaller than 6.5 dB, the crosstalk is less than -22 dB and the 1 dB passband is about 50 GHz. The effect of the path difference error is also investigated.

The binding isotherms of ionic dyes with Poly(vinylpyrrolidone) in aqueous solution were determined by the dynamic dialysis technique. The shape of the isotherms of cationic dye, C. I. Basic Red 18 with poly(vinlypyrrolidone) showed a partition type. It suggests that the binding involves a non-cooperative mode. Isotherms of an anion dye, a synthesized dye by coupling of diazotized m-trifluoromethylaniline with 2-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, were sigmoid type and showed multimode interaction. The results were interpreted by the McGhee von Hippel theory. The thermodynamic parameters for the complex formation of the dyes-polymer were calculated from their temperature dependences of the intrinsic binding constant.

Squeezed light는 중력파 검출기의 양자 잡음을 줄여 측정의 민감도를 향상시키기 위해 사용하는 양자 광원이다. Squeezed light는 광학적 손실에 민감하기 때문에 중력파를 측정하기 위해서는 정밀한 mode matching이 필요하다. 하지만 mode mismatching은 실제 실험 상황에서 동적으로, 그리고 무작위로 나타나므로 정밀하게 조정하기 어렵다. Mode mismatching에 견고한 squeezed light를 만들기 위해서는 multimode squeezed light가 필요하다. Multimode squeezed light를 만드는 방법으로 는 self-imaging cavity를 이용하여 생성하는 방법이 대표적으로 알려져 있다. 이 발표에서는 self-imaging cavity 기반으로 만든 optical parametric oscillator(OPO) 에서 생성된 squeezed light가 기존 OPO로 생성한 squeezed light 보다 여러 spatial mode mismatching (위치, 방향, 크기 빗맞음)에 대해 견고함을 소개한다.

Optical fiber has many advantages, such as high reliability, long lifetime, immunity to the electromagnetic interference, high speed response and low cost. In this study, we proposed and developed an optical fiber impact and pressure sensor for prevention of accident which occurs in the automatic system or auto door. The principle of the sensor is to detect different optical intensity caused by variation of a speckle pattern due to the external perturbation. Speckle pattern appears at the end of a multimode fiber in which coherent beam propagates. The fabricated sensor in this study was tested. As a result of experiments, amplitude of the output signal isn't linear, but it has sufficient sensitivity for a sensor. Moreover, we can control sensitivity of the sensor by an amplifier at receiver. It has several advantages which are ability of detection at all point on the multimode fiber, large sensitive area, and many application areas for a sensing impact and pressure.

We characterized the properties of the fabricated filter with the total internal reflection mirror (TIR) in the rectangular ring resonator and very small multimode interference (MMI) couplers on an InP material platform for photonic integrated circuits. Coupling power in and out of a resonator is increased by using an optimum MMI length of 110 ${\mu}m$ and a width of 9 ${\mu}m$, respectively. The semiconductor optical amplifier with the length of 120 ${\mu}m$ is integrated in the resonator to compensate the loss of the internal waveguide and the TIR mirror. A free spectral range of approximately 2 nm (244 GHz) is observed with an on-off ratio of 13 dB. The curve fitting also yields the power coupled per pass as 42%. To reach critical coupling at this coupling level would require a round trip loss of about 2.4 dB.

An intrusion-sensitive capability of multimode graded-index (GRIN) optical fibers under bending has been investigated. In this system, the data light is transmitted in the fundamental mode while alarm monitor light is launched in a high-order mode at the same time. An attempted intrusion to drain data by bending the fiber results in greater attenuation of a monitor signal in higher order modes, thereby setting off an alarm at the receiver. Light propagation in a multimode graded-index fiber is also analyzed theoretically when the fundamental mode is selectively excited and the fiber is bent around a constant radius mandrel. The bending generates coupling between the various modes of the fiber. Power transitions of the fundamental mode by changing the bending radius were also analyzed numerically using program simulation. It is shown that Asawa-Taylor model[4] is valid up to 1cm of the radius of curvature of the fiber bend.
