A novel InGaAsP/InP buried-ridge waveguide laser diode structure is proposed and demonstrated for use as a single-mode laser. The lateral mode of the proposed device can be controlled by adjusting the composition and thickness of the InGaAsP layer grown over the active region. Stable single-mode operation without kinks or beam-steering is achieved successfully with lateral and transverse in the junction plane even for the device with the ridge width of 9 ${\mu}m$ up to an injection current of 500 mA.

A novel multi-oxide layer structure for vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) structures is proposed to achieve higher single mode output power. The structure has four oxide layers with different aperture sizes and thicknesses. The oxide layer thicknesses are optimized simultaneously to reach the highest single mode output power. A heuristic method is proposed for plotting the influence of these variable changes on the operation of optical output power. A comprehensive optical-electrical thermal-gain self-consistent VCSEL model is used to simulate the continuous-wave operation of the multi-layer oxide VCSELs. A comparison between optimized VCSELs with different structures is presented. The results show that by using multi-oxide layers with different thicknesses, higher single-mode optical output power could be achieved in comparison with multi-oxide layer structures with the same thicknesses.

This paper deals with the analysis, design, and implementation of a single phase AC-DC Zeta converter with high frequency transformer isolation and power factor correction(PFC) in two modes of operation, discontinuous current mode of operation(DCM), and continuous current mode of operation(CCM). A Digital Signal Processor(DSP) based implementation is carried out for validation of the Zeta converter developed design in discontinuous mode of operation. A comparison of both modes of operation is presented for a 1kW power rating from the point of view of steady state and dynamic behavior, power quality, simplicity, control technique, device rating, and converter size. The experimental results of a developed prototype of Zeta converter are presented for validation of the developed design. It is observed that CCM is most suitable for higher power applications where it requires some complex control and sensing of the additional variables.

oxide 층의 위치와 두께 조절을 통하여 oxide-VCSEL이 단일모드로 동작하는 활성영역의 반경을 확장하는 방법을 Self-consistent effective-index 방법을 이용하여 제시하였다. 이렇게 활성영역이 넓어지면 고속, 고신뢰도, 고출력 동작에 유리한 단일모드 VCSEL을 만들 수 있게 된다. 고출력을 위하여 단일모드로 동작하는 활성영역을 확대하는 방법을 하면 다음과 같다. 첫째 oxide 층은 활성층에서 멀리 떨어진 곳에 위치시켜야 한다 둘째, oxide 층은 얇게 만들어야 한다. 셋째, oxide층을 node에 위치시켜야 한다. 그리고 고출력을 위하여 p-DBR 쌍의 수를 줄이는 것은 단일모드 동작조건을 변화시키지 않는다. 이 방법을 사용하면 단일모드로 동작하는 oxide-aperture 크기를 3m% 이상 키울 수 있다.

The conventional way to implement a bidirectional converter with boost/buck has been to use two general purpose PWM ICs with a single supply voltage. In this case, when one direction mode is in operation, the other is disabled and the output of the error amplifier of the disabled IC may be saturated to a maximum value or zero. Therefore, during mode transition, a circuit which can disable the switching operation for a certain time interval is required making it impossible to get a seamless transition. In this paper, the limitations of the conventional 42V/14V bi-directional DC/DC converter implemented with general current mode PWM ICs with a single supply voltage are reviewed and a new current mode PWM controller circuit with a dual voltage system is proposed. The validity of the proposed circuit is investigated through simulation. and experiments.

We developed LD Pumped Nd:$VVO_4$ microchip laser with the cavity length of 1mm. The microchip laser output was 87.5㎽ at the wavelength of 1063.9nm with the input power of 241㎽ at the wavelength of 809nm. The slope efficiency was 40.7% and the threshold input power was 31.1㎽. We have also defined input power limit for the single longitudinal mode operation theoretically. It was 2.5 times larger than that of threshold input intensity. According to the results of simulation, the Nd:YVO$_4$ microchip laser can be operated with the maximum output of 15㎽ for the single longitudinal mode up to the input power of 77.75㎽.

The conventional graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase active power filters(APFs) simply represents the active power flow and the reactive power flow which flowing between the power source and the active filter / the load. But, this method does not provide the information about the rectification mode and the compensation mode of APFs, especially, the loss for each mode was not considered at all. This is very important to understand the compensation operation characteristics of APFs. Therefore, this paper proposes the graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase APFs considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode. Three cases are verified in this paper - without compensation, with compensation of the active power 'p' and the fundamental reactive power 'q', and with compensation of only the distorted power 'h'. To ensure the validity of the proposed approach, PSIM simulation is achieved. As a result, we could confirm that the proposed approach was easy to explain the instantaneous compensation power flow considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode of APFs, also, Total Harmonic Distortion(THD)/Power Factor (P.F) and Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) analysis were compared for each case.

단일모드 출력을 얻기 위해, 횡자장을 걸었을 때와 걸지 않았을 때 내부 반사경 543 nm 헬륨 네온 레이저의 편광특성을 조사하였다. 레이저 출력이 선편광일 때 두 개의 직교하는 편광성분을 측정하였다. 자장을 가하지 않고 레이저 주파수를 이득곡선상에서 주사하였을 경우, 편광 불안정이 크게 발생하였다. 레이저 고유편광에 대하여 35$^{\circ}$방향으로 50 gauss의 횡자장을 가하였을 때 편광 불안정을 억제할 수 있었다. 같은 조건에서 543 nm 헬륨 네온 레이저 주파수를 요오드 분자의 포화 흡수분광선에 안정화시키는데 필요한 880 MHz 대역폭 안에서 안정된 단일모드 동작을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper presents a single switch, high step-up, non-isolated dc-dc converter suitable for renewable energy applications. The proposed converter is composed of a coupled inductor, a passive clamp circuit, a switched capacitor and voltage lift circuits. The passive clamp recovers the leakage inductance energy of the coupled inductor and limits the voltage spike on the switch. The configuration of the passive clamp and switched capacitor circuit increases the voltage gain. A wide continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation range, a low turn ratio for the coupled inductor, low voltage stress on the switch, switch turn on under almost zero current switching (ZCS), low voltage stress on the diodes, leakage inductance energy recovery, high efficiency and a high voltage gain without a large duty cycle are the benefits of this converter. The steady state operation of the converter in the continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is discussed and analyzed. A 200W prototype converter with a 28V input and a 380V output voltage is implemented and tested to verify the theoretical analysis.
