일정한 파장 간격을 가지는 다파장 광원은 WDM 시스템에서 중요한 소자중의 하나로 부각되고 있다. 다파장 광원에서 요구되는 주요 특징은 넓은 파장대역과 많은 수의 채널이며 각 채널들의 출력이 크고 균일해야 할 필요가 있다. 또한 각 채널의 파장이 ITU frequency grid와 일치해야 한다. 반도체 레이저와 광섬유레이저를 이용하여 이런 요구들을 만족하는 다파장 광원에 대한 다양한 연구들이 이루어져 왔다. (중략)

최근에 개발된 광섬유 격자소자(FBG)를 이용한 광섬유 수중 음향센서는 기존의 광섬유 센서가 지니고 있는 우수한 장점들을 지니고 있을 뿐만 아니라, PZT센서가 검출할수 없는 저주파수(30Hz∼300Hz)특성에서도 우수한 신호 감지효과를 지니고 있으며, 특히 군사용으로 사용될 수 있는 저주파 신호 검출에 실용화를 기대 할수 있으며, 센서 어레이(array)를 통하여 고감도 다중화로 발전될 수 있다.

본 논문에서는 PMF와 FBG로 구성된 PDL 기반 사냑 간섭계를 이용하여 편광 간섭형 광섬유 압력 센서를 구현하였다. 여러 종류의 PMF들에서 압력 민감도를 비교하기 위해, 서로 다른 세 종류의 보우-타이형 PMF를 센서부로 사용하였다. 구현된 광섬유 압력 센서를 이용하여 0~0.3 MPa의 범위에서 압력 측정을 수행하였으며, 최대 압력 민감도는 근사적으로 -15.07 nm/MPa로 측정되었고, 센서의 선형성을 나타내는 $R^2$값은 ~0.992로 측정되었다. 제안된 센서는 FBG를 이용하여 외부 온도 변화의 보상이 가능하면서도, 이전의 편광유지 광자결정 광섬유 기반 압력 센서에 비해 압력 민감도를 4배까지 증가시킬 수 있었다.

플로팅구조물은 열악한 해양환경상태에 있기 때문에 구조물응답에 대한 실시간 모니터링 기술을 적용하여 구조안전성을 확보해야 한다. 특히 기존의 전기 저항식 스트레인 게이지 단점을 극복한 광섬유 센서를 이용하여 실시간 모니터링 시스템 개발에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 플로팅구조물의 축소 모델에 광섬유 센서 중 하나인 FBG센서를 부착하고 실험용 수조에 설치하여 광학 스펙트럼 분석기를 통해 중심파장을 측정한 후 변형률을 계산하였다. 또한 유한요소 모델을 유한요소 해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 사용하여 모델링하고 유한요소 해석을 통해 변형률을 출력하고 실험결과와 해석 결과를 비교하여 광섬유 센서를 이용한 플로팅구조물의 실시간 모니터링을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.

Deflection and deformation occur easily in structures with long length, such as bridges and pipelines. Shape monitoring is required for ensuring their structural health. A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor can be used for monitoring a large-scale structure because of its advantage of multiplexing. In this study, FBG sensors were used for monitoring a composite beam structure, and its strains were measured at multiple points. Thereafter, a shape estimation technique based on the strains was studied. Particularly, a three-dimensional shape estimation technique was proposed for accurate structural health monitoring. A simple experiment was conducted to verify the performance of the shape estimation technique. The result revealed that the estimated shape of the composite beam structure was in agreement with the actual shape obtained after the deformation of the specimen. Additionally, the deflection at a specific point was verified by comparing the estimated and actual deformations measured using a micrometer.

Among many fabrication methods of composite materials, filament winding is the most effective method for fabricating axis-symmetric structures such as pressure tanks and pipes. Filament wound pressure tanks are under high internal pressure during the operation and it has the complexity in damage mechanisms and failure modes. For this reason, it is necessary to monitor the tank through its operation as well as whole fabrication process. A large number of sensors must be embedded into multi points of the tank from its fabrication step for monitoring the whole tank. Fiber optic sensors, especially fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensors are widely used for various applications because of good multiplexing capabilities. However, we need to develop the embedding technique of FBG sensors into harsh inner environment of the tank far the successful embedment. In this paper, we studied the embedding technique of a number of FBG sensors into filament wound pressure tanks considering multiplexing.

In several industrial fields, epoxy resin is widely used as an adhesive for co-curing and manufacturing various structures. Controlling the manufacturing process is required for ensuring robust bonding performance and the stability of the structures. A fiber optic sensor is suitable for the cure monitoring of epoxy resin owing to the thready shape of the sensor. In this paper, a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor was applied for the cure monitoring of epoxy resin. Based on the experimental results, it was demonstrated that the FBG sensor can monitor the status of epoxy resin curing by measuring the strain caused by volume shrinkage and considering the compensation of temperature. In addition, two types of epoxy resin were used for the cure-monitoring; moreover, when compared to each other, it was found that the two types of epoxy had different cure-processes in terms of the change of strain during the curing. Therefore, the study proved that the FBG sensor is very profitable for the cure-monitoring of epoxy resin.

We theoretically and experimentally investigate the effect of apodization on the transmission characteristics of linearly chirped fiber Bragg gratings(CFBGs). Based on the UV beam scanning method along a phase mask, we fabricated several apodized CFBGs with different apodization profiles such as Gaussian, Raised-cosine, Blackman, and Hyperbolic tangent. During the UV beam scanning, the phase mask is dithered by a PZT(Piezoelectric transducer) which is precisely controlled by a computer program so that the apodization profiles can be flexibly applied to the grating. We measured the reflection spectra and group delay characteristics of CFBGs with the different apodization profiles, and compared them according to their properties such as reflectivity, sidelobes, and group delay ripple (GDR). The peak-to-peak of GDR could be suppressed to less than 20 ps.
