  • 본 논문에서는 짧은 길이의 편광유지 광자결정 광섬유(polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber : 이하 PM-PCF)와 3 dB 광섬유 결합기(fiber coupler), 그리고 편광 조절기(polarization controller)로 구성된 사냑(Sagnac) 복굴절 간섭계(birefringence interferometer)를 이용하여 온도에 둔감한 편광 간섭형 스트레인 센서(polarimetric strain sensor)를 구현하였다. 센서부(sensor head)로 사용된 PM-PCF의 길이는 2 cm이었고, 이는 기존의 PM-PCF 기반 편광 간섭형 스트레인 센서들과 비교할 때 가장 짧은 센서부 길이이다. 제안된 센서는 $0{\sim}8m{\varepsilon}$의 범위에 대해서 스트레인 측정을 수행하였으며, ${\sim}0.87pm/{\mu}{\varepsilon}$에 해당하는 스트레인 민감도를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 외부 온도를 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $100^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키며 제안된 센서의 온도 의존성을 조사한 결과, 약 $-12pm/^{\circ}C$의 온도 민감도를 얻을 수 있었으며, 이는 기존의 편광 유지 광섬유의 온도 민감도(약 $-990pm/^{\circ}C$) 에 비해 약 82배정도 작은 값이다. 특히, 실용적인 관점에서 센서 표지자(indicator)로 사용되는 파장이 스트레인 민감도에 큰 영향을 주지 않는다는 것을 실험 및 이론적으로 확인하였다.

  • Two-dimensional (2D) nano patterns including a two-dimensional Bravais lattice were fabricated by laser interference lithography using a two step exposure process. After the first exposure, the substrate itself was rotated by a certain angle, $90^{\circ}$ for a square or rectangular lattice, $75^{\circ}$ for an oblique lattice, and $60^{\circ}$ for a hexagonal lattice, and the $90^{\circ}$ and laser incident angle changed for rectangular and the $45^{\circ}$ and laser incident angle changed for a centered rectangular; we then carried out a second exposure process to form 2D bravais lattices. The band structure of five different 2D nano patterns was simulated by a beam propagation program. The presence of the band-gap effect was shown in an oblique and hexagonal structure. The oblique latticed ZnO nano-photonic crystal array had a pseudo-bandgap at a frequency of 0.337-0.375, 0.575-0.596 and 0.858-0.870. The hexagonal latticed ZnO nano-crystallite array had a pseudo-bandgap at a frequency of 0.335-0.384 and 0.585-0.645. The ZnO nano structure with an oblique and hexagonal structure was grown through the patterned opening window area by a hydrothermal method. The morphology of 2D nano patterns and ZnO nano structures were investigated by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The diameter of the opening window was approximately 250 nm. The height and width of ZnO nano-photonic crystals were 380 nm and 250 nm, respectively.

  • Low-dislocation-density large-diameter GaAs single crystals with low-residual-strain have been strongly required. We have developed dislocation-free 3-inch Si-doped GaAs crystals for photonic devices [1], and low-dislocation-density low-residual-strain 4-inch to 6-inch [2, 3] semi-insulating GaAs crystals for electronic devices by Vertical Boat (VB) technique. We confirmed that VB substrates with low-residual-strain have higher resistance against slip-line generation during MBE process. VB-GaAs single crystals show uniform radial profile of resistivity reflecting to the flat solid-liquid interface during the crystal growth. Uniformity of micro-resistivity of VB-GaAs substrate is much better than that of the LEC-GaAs substrate, which is due to the low-dislocation-density of VB-GaAs single crystals.

  • In this paper, we describe the fabrication process and the characteristics of polarization maintaining photonic crystal fibers (PM-PCFs). The PM-PCF is fabricated by stack-and-draw method, i.e., stacking silica capillary tubes (making a PM-PCF preform) and drawing to optical fiber. Firstly, a PM-PCF preform is formed by stacking two kinds of capillary tubes around a solid silica rod and jacketing these stacked tubes with an outer silica tube (out-jacket tube). Later, the desired preform is drawn to a fiber in a high temperature drawing tower. We also compare the polarization properties such as polarization dependent loss, birefringence, and differential group delay of the fabricated PM-PCF with those of the conventional PANDA PM fiber.

  • We review the research on specialty fiber couplers with emphasis placed on the characteristics that make them attractive for biomedical imaging, optical communications, and sensing applications. The fabrication of fiber couplers has been carried out with, in addition to conventional single mode fiber, various specialty fibers such as photonic crystal fiber, double clad fiber, and hole-assisted fiber with a Ge-doped core. For the fiber coupler fabrication, the side polishing and the fused biconical tapered methods have been developed. These specialty fiber couplers have been applied to optical coherence tomography, fluorescence spectroscopy, fiber sensors, and optical communication systems. This review aims to provide a detailed statement on the recent progress and novel applications of specialty fiber couplers.

  • The LGP with nanometer structures resulted in enhancement of optical efficiency. Its fundamental mechanism is to recycle the polarized light via one round-trip through QWP(Quarter-wave Plate) but the maximum efficiency to reach with this method is limited up to 2. To get the larger efficiency than this a LGP with 1D PC(one-dimensional photonic crystal) nanometer-patterned on its top and bottom surfaces is suggested. For its optimum design the computer simulation is performed and suggests a grating that the spatial frequency between adjacent patterns is 500nm, its height 250nm, duty cycle 50%, and its cross section is rectangular. The angles of transmitted light are nearly the same as the results expected from the generalized Snell's law. Thus the Mathematica code, developed in this experiment, will be applied to designing the optimized LGP. The LGP with nanometer-patterened 1D PC LGP on its both surfaces shows the enhancement of transmitted intensity distribution up to 5.7 times.

  • 나노-스피어 리소그래피는 기존 리소그래피 방법에 비해 나노 크기의 패턴을 저비용에 공정이 간단하고, 대면적 패터닝이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 나노-스피어 리소그래피 공정을 이용하여 실리콘 기판 위에 2차원 광자결정 구조를 제작하였다. 실리콘 기판 위에 직경이 500 nm 인 폴리스티렌 나노-스피어를 스핀 코팅 방법으로 단일막을 형성하였다. 스핀코팅 조건은 스핀속도와 시간을 조절하여 1단계는 400 rpm에서 10초, 2단계는 800 rpm에서 120초, 3 단계는 1400 rpm 에서 10초로 공정하였다. 그리고 산소 플라즈마를 이용한 반응성 이온 식각공정으로 폴리스티렌 나노-스피어의 크기를 조절할 수 있었으며, 이때 실리콘 기판 위에 형성된 다양한 크기의 폴리스티렌 나노-스피어 단일막은 금속막 증착시 마스크의 역할을 하게 된다. 금속막의 증착은 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 시스템을 이용하였으며, 공정 조건은 RF power를 100W, 공정 압력을 5 mTorr, Ar 유량을 10sccm으로 하였다. 스퍼터링 공정 후 폴리스티렌 나노-스피어를 제거함으로써 2 차원 광자결정 구조를 제작할 수 있었다. 실험 결과 단일막으로 형성된 폴리스티렌 나노-스피어의 크기를 조절함으로써 다양한 2차원 광자결정 구조 제작이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.
