A fiber-optic interferometric temperature sensor is fabricated using a hollow optical fiber with 8 um air hole. This interferometric sensor for measuring temperature consists of 13 mm long hollow optical fiber whose one end is attached to the single mode fiber and the other end is cleaved. After the sensor is put in a furnace, the phase change of the sensor output signal is measured as the temperature of the furnace increases from $28^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$. The phase change of the fiber sensor is proportional to the change of temperature and the relationship between the change of phase and temperature is approximately linear. The sensitivity of this sensor is $2.7{\;}radians/^{\circ}C$.

Temperature and frequency dependence of dielectric and electrical properties was investigated in cerium and manganese doped Sr$\_$0.6/Ba$\_$0.4/Nb$_2$O$\_$6/(60SBN) ceramic system. Structural deformation of 60SBN by dopants did not appeared. 1350$^{\circ}C$-10 h sintered specimen had higher densification than 1250$^{\circ}C$-10 h sintered one, to which dielectric properties are related. That the feature of dielectric maxima peaks was typical Diffusive Phase Transition (DPT), it was explained by "random-field Ising model". Even though 60SBN has large dielectric loss at high frequency above 100 ㎑, it is desirable for optical applications because of low dielectric loss at low frequency. From Arrhenius plot of temperature, the activation energy was calculated to 0.45-0.49 eV.

Closed-loop fiber-optic gyroscope with linear scale factor for a wide dynamic range is demonstrated using a gating process and two-harmonic phase modulation, of which the second harmonic is obtained by a frequency doubler. Also the effects of the second harmonic and duty cycle of gating signal on the linearity of scale factor are estimated theoretically and compared with the measured data. The experimental results show the best linearity of scale factor is about 0.5% within the rotation rate 90.deg./sec. The closed-loop fiber-optic gyroscope with gated two-harmonic phase modulation can be used in the application demanding less sensitive performance and modest scale factor linearity.

Due to electrical cross-coupling between modulation voltage and photodetector output in a closed-loop fiber optic gyro, deadzone inevitably occurs. In this paper, deadzone error by cross-coupling effect was analyzed and the overcoming method was suggested. Simulation and measurement results show the main reason for deadzone is mainly related to electrical cross-coupling, and it can be effectively reduced by square-wave dithering method.

This paper describes the design of enhanced TSSI RF Power Detector which has wide dynamic range using switch and Log amp. This Power Detector consists of low and high gain loops, and they adaptively switched by output DC voltage which is proportioned to input power level. Because Power Detector needs to separate the channel, so architecture is heterodyne system having 70MHz intermediate frequency. This proposed RF Power Detector is settle to the satisfaction of Closed loop power control system for W-CDMA optic repeater, and the obtained dynamic range cover the higher than 50dB.

Characteristics of holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal(HPDLC) were studied according to various matrix materials to improve the electro-optic properties. Various types of polyurethane acrylates (PUAs) have been designed and synthesized. The morphologies of these gratings were measured by atomic force microscopy(AFM) and electro-optic properties were obtained with UV-visible spectroscopy. Real time measurements of grating fabrication have been obtained according to PUA structures. High reflection efficiency was obtained by modifying the molecular structure.

We have studied the influence of rubbing angles with respect to in-plane field direction on electro-optic characteristics of in-plane switching (IPS) liquid crystal display. The results show that the threshold voltage increases and the operational voltage decreases as the rubbing angle increases. Further, the total response time and also response times associated with grey-to-grey transitions become fast as the rubbing angle decreases.

A new demodulation technique which can be used for the fiber optic acoustic sensor system using Sagnac interferometer is described. The theoretical limitation in dynamic range of the quadrature demodulation technique can be removed by the proposed BPSK(Binary Phase Shift Keying) demodulation technique. Full demodulation of input acoustic signal is possible with just simple electronics by eliminating the necessity of the high frequency phase modulation. This technique is suitable for digital signal processing of fiber optic sensor systems and can be applicable for other interferometers.

Gas/liquid two-phase ejector is a device without moving parts, in which liquid is used to drive gas of a low-pressure source. In this paper, the hydrodynamic characteristics of a vertical down type two-phase ejector were studied using an air-water loop system. Entrained air flow rates were measured with inlet and outlet pressures of the ejector with varying water flow rate. Homogeneous bubbly flows in the discharge pipe were confirmed by the high speed flow visualization method. Quantitative measurements of void fraction were made using a newly developed fiber optic probe system.
