Abstract

The recent, a large capacity of communication is required in order to it is in proportion to capacity of information communication increase and to satisfy a demand because of the demand about Internet, a multimedia service of Video of internet protocol(VoIP), Audio/Video steaming. DWDM(Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technique has been emerged as the method of solving it without additional optical fiber network building and hish-speed equipment. Therefore this thesis proposed the optical filter of fiber/multilayer slab coupled structure combining it to multilayer slab waveguide by polishing the cladding of one side of fiber to design the optical filter having these functions. The optical filter proposed as the simulation result satisfies DWDM filter characteristic; 1) when the separation distance between fiber and slab is $4.15{\mu}m$ at the communication window of $1.5{\mu}m$, the polarization independence is 65nm, 2) when the center wavelengths about TM mode and TE mode are each ${\lambda}_0=1.54946\;{\mu}m$ and ${\lambda}_0=1.6144\;{\mu}m$ and, FWHM(Full at Half Maximun) is 0.1nm.

최근 광통신 용량은 VoIP, AUdio/Video 스트리밍의 멀티미디어 서비스 수요로 인한 정보통신 용량의 증가에 비례하여 증가하고 있다. 초고속 광통신망에서 추가적인 광섬유망과 고속장비 없이 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 DWDM(Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 기법이 대두되고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이러한 기능을 갖는 광필터를 설계하기 위하여 광섬유 한쪽의 클래드를 연마하여 다층 슬래브 도파로에 결합시킨 형태의 광섬유/다층 슬래브 결합구조의 광필터를 제안하였다. 제안된 광필터는 $1.5{\mu}m$ 통신창에서 분리간격이 $4.15{\mu}m$일 때 65nm의 편광 독립성, TM 모드와 TE 모드에 대해 중심파장이 각각 ${\lambda}_0=1.54946\;{\mu}m$${\lambda}_0=1.6144\;{\mu}m$일 때 0.1 nm의 FWHM(Full Width at Half Maximun) 특성을 가진다.
