현재 광 정렬 시스템에 채용하고 있는 다채널 광 파워미터는 측정 채널의 수가 증가하는 상황이다. 그러나 기존 시스템 제어를 통한 각 채널의 정밀한 정렬은 다 채널 광 파워미터 기술에 적합하지 않은 방식이다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 기존 방식을 채택한 광 정렬 방식을 개선하기 위해 하다마스 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 방법을 제안한다. 다채널 광학 정렬 시스템에서 가장 중요한 문제는 채널의 증가에 따라 채널별 정렬의 정밀도가 떨어진다. 기존 정렬 시스템에서 채용하고 있는 다채널 광 파워미터의 기술 수준은 약 4채널까지 동시 측정이 가능하였다. 이 방법은 채널 양쪽에 검출기를 설치하여 광량의 최대 지점을 최적 정렬 위치로 결정한다. 그러나 시스템 채널이 증가할 수록 안쪽에 위치한 광소자를 정렬을 무시하기 때문에 정확한 정렬에 적합하지 않다. 그리고 고속, 대용량의 데이터 처리요구에 맞추기 위한 64채널 광소자 생산을 위해서는 16개의 4채널 광 파워미터를 사용하는 방법이 있으나 이는 신뢰할 만한 수준의 측정치를 제공하지 못한다. 따라서 새로운 개념을 적용한 다채널 동시측정을 위한 광소자 측정 기술 및 광 파워미터의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 하다마드 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 시스템은 이러한 요구를 충족시킬 수 있다. 그러므로 본 논문은 하다마드 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 시스템이 기존의 시스템보다 우수한 알고리즘과 성능을 가지고 있음을 실험을 통해 입증한다.

In this paper, we introduce a new photodetector configuration that automatically aligns its receiving angle to the incident signal light. Around the central photodiode that receives the optical signal, 4 photodiodes on ${\Phi}$-axis and 2 photodiodes on $\theta$-axis are installed in order to drive 2 step motors in f and $\theta$ direction. The photodetector completes angle-alignment within Isec to the signal light from an arbitrary direction.

In this paper, we designed and made the scanned point detecting system for 3-dimensional measurement of the light emitted from plasma display panel (PDP) , and we measured and analyzed 3-dimensional light emitted from a real PDP by using this scanned point detecting system. The scanned point detecting system has a point detector with a pinhole. The light emitted from the source at the in-focus position can pass through the pinhole and be collected by detector. The light from other sources at outof-focus positions is focused at points in front of or behind the pinhole, and thus it is intercepted by the pinhole. Therefore, we can detect light information from a particular point of a PDP cell of 3-dimensional structure. We know the electric field distribution inside the PDP cell from the 3-dimensionallight intensity distribution measured by using the scanned point detecting system. As the Z axial measurement increases, the intensity of light detected increases and intensity of light detected on the inside edge of the ITa electrode is larger than outside edge of the ITa eletrode and gap of the ITa electrodes. Also, as the measurement point moves from one barrier rib to another, the detected light is weaker near to the barrier ribs than at the center between the barrier ribs. The emitted light is concentrated at the center between barrier ribs. ribs.

진행파형 광 검출기는 전기적으로 분포된(distributed) 구조이므로, 그 대역폭은 RC 시정수에 의해 제한되기보다는 광 흡수계수와 광과 마이크로파 사이의 진행속도 차에 의해 제한된다$^{(1)(2)}$ . 진행파형 광검출기에서 광과 마이크로파 사이의 속도 부정합이 대역폭에 미치는 영향은 속도 부정합 임펄스 반응(velocity-mismatch impulse response)의 제시를 통해 이미 분석되었다$^{(1)(2)}$ . 그러나, 대역폭에 제한에 큰 영향을 미칠 것이 예상되는 진성 흡수 영역에서의 전송자 표류 시간은 아직 구체적으로 고려되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 진성 흡수영역에서의 전송자 표류 시간을 고려하였다. 그 전이 시간(transit time)을 고려하기 위해 속도 부정합 임펄스 반응을 수정하여 제시하였다. 새로히 제시된 임펄스 반응은 광 도파로 해석과 진성 영역 분할에 의해 모델화 되었으며, 이 임펄스 반응을 통해 전이 시간과 속도 부정합이 대역폭에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다.

In this paper, a circular orthogonal polarizer is newly fabricated and used in a differential detector to reduce the optical noise in a wireless optical interconnection. The orthogonal polarizer is composed of two semicircular polarizers whose transmission axes are orthogonal each other, The orthogonal polarizer is driven by a motor and matched to the signal polarization in order to reduce the optical noise interference. The noise power was reduced by about 20 dB using a differential detector with the orthogonal polarizer.

In this paper, a new differential detector is introduced, in which a solar cell is used to reduce the low frequency interference from environmental optical noise. The solar cell also supplies electrical power to the detector circuit using the optical noise power. The DC voltage from the solar cell is used as a power supply to the detector, and the AC voltage is used to reduce the optical noise in a photodiode with the differential detection method. The signal to noise ratio was improved by about 20 dB.

In this paper, optical noise is reduced by a differential detector with an optical fiber coupler in an optical wireless system. An $1\times2$ optical fiber coupler divides the received optical signal by 2 equally, and connects them to the two photodiodes in a differential detector. The output voltage variation due to the abrupt change of optical noise distribution in space disappears because the two photodiodes effectively detect the optical signal at the same point. The signal to noise ratio in a differential detector with a fiber coupler was 8 dB higher than in a single photodiode with an optical filter.

Positron emission tomography for small animals has very high spatial resolution for imaging very small organs. To achieve good spatial resolution, the system must be constructed using very small scintillation pixels. When a detector is constructed using very small scintillation pixels, the size of the applicable array varies depending on the photosensor pixel. In a previous study, a study was conducted to find the maximum scintillation pixel arrangement according to the size of the photosensor. In this study, a detector with a light guide was designed to configure the detector using a more extended array of scintillation pixels, and try to find the maximum arrangement in which all scintillation pixels are imaged. The detector was designed using DETECT2000, which can simulate a detector made of a scintillator. Simulations were performed by configuring the detectors from an 11 × 11 scintillation pixel array to a 16 × 16 array. After obtaining a flood image by collecting the light generated from the scintillation pixel with a photosensor, the largest arrangement without overlap was found through image analysis. As a result, the largest arrangement in which all scintillation pixels could be distinguished without overlapping was a 15 × 15 arrangement.

In this paper, optical noise is reduced by a differential detector with a plastic optical fiber bundle in a wireless optical interconnection. A plastic optical fiber bundle divides the received optical signal equally and connects it to two photodiodes. In this configuration two photodiodes effectively detect the optical signal at one point, and the output voltage variation due to the abrupt change of optical noise distribution in space disappears. The signal to noise ratio in a differential detector with a fiber bundle was improved to be $10\;\cal{dB}$ higher than in a single photodiode with an optical filter.

The detector of the positron emission tomography (PET) is composed using a plurality of scintillation pixels and photo sensors. The use of multiple photo sensors increases cost and complicates signal processing. In this study, a detector with reduced cost and simple signal processing was designed using a small number of photo sensors. A scintillation pixel and a small number of photo sensors were used, and a optical guide was used to deliver light to all the photo sensors. A reflector is applied to the scintillation pixel and the optical guide to transmit the maximum amount of light to the photo sensor. A diffuse reflector and a specular reflector were used for the reflector, and a flood image was obtained by applying different thicknesses of the optical guide. An optimal combination was selected through comparative analysis of the acquired flood images. As a result, when specular reflectors were used for both the scintillation pixel and the optical guide, excellent flood images were obtained from optical guides of all thicknesses. For the optical guide, the optimal image was obtained when using a 3 mm thickness in consideration of the size of the image and the analysis of the point where the image of the scintillation pixel was formed.
