In this paper, we made CGH patterns that had continuous amplitude distribution binary coded patterns with two different methods, and analyzed those patterns by using LCSLM (liquid crystal spatial light modulator). The error diffusion algorithm and direct quantization method were used as the binarization methods. The parameters of overall average brightness, mean square error, and diffraction efficiency were used in the comparison of reconstruction characteristics. The LCSLM which we used in this experiment was a binary reflective ferroelectric liquid crystal spatial light modulator addressed electrically with 256$\times$256 pixels, 87% fill factor and 15$\mu$m pixel pitch.

본 연구에서는 GaAs p-i-n 접합 구조에 InAs 양자점을 삽입한 양자점 태양전지(Quantum Dot Solar Cell; QDSC)의 내부 전기장(internal electric field)을 조사하기 위하여 Photoreflectance (PR) 방법을 이용하였다. QDSC 구조는 GaAs p-i-n 구조의 공핍층 내에 8주기의 InAs 양자점 층을 삽입하였으며 각 양자점 층은 40 nm 두께의 i-GaAs로 분리하였다. InAs/GaAs QDSC는 분자선박막 성장장치(molecular beam epitaxy; MBE)를 이용하여 성장하였다. 이 때 양자점의 형성은 InAs 2.0 ML(monolayer)를 기판온도 $470^{\circ}C$에서 증착하였다. QDSC 구조에서 여기광원의 세기에 따른 전기장의 변화를 조사하였다. 아울러 양자점 층 사이의 i-GaAs 층 내에 6.0 nm의 AlGaAs 퍼텐셜 장벽(potential barrier)을 삽입하여 퍼텐셜 장벽 유무에 따른 전기장 변화를 조사하였다. PR 측정에서 여기광원으로는 633 nm의 He-Ne 레이저를 이용하였으며 여기광의 세기는 $2mW/cm^2$에서 $90mW/cm^2$까지 변화를 주어 여기광세기 의존성실험을 수행하였다. 여기광의 세기가 증가할수록 photovoltaic effect에 의한 내부 전기장의 변화를 관측할 수 있었다. PR 결과로부터 p-i-n 구조의 p-i 영역과 i-n 접합 계면의 junction field를 검출하였다. p-i-n의 i-영역에 양자점을 삽입한 경우 PR 신호에서 Franz-Keldysh oscillation (FKO)의 주파수가 p-i-n 구조와 비교하여 변조됨을 관측하였다. 이러한 FKO 주파수성분은 fast Fourier transform (FFT)을 이용하여 검출하였다. FKO의 주파수 성분들은 고전기장하에서 electron-heavyhole (e-hh)과 electron-lighthole (e-lh) 전이에 의해 나타나는 성분으로 확인되었다.

In this paper, we propose the symbol decision method considering the non-uniformity in color space and analyze the BER performance of modulation scheme based on color space, comparing with the conventional WDM scheme based on light intensity. Through numerical simulation, we show the BER performance superiority under the condition of AWGN and common mode noise.

A method for optical representation and modulation of synaptic interconnections between neurons using photoanisotropic amorphous As2S3 thin film is discussed. Experimental results show that the proposed method can be used for the representation of not only excitatory synaptic connections but also inhibitory synaptic connections. Applications of the method to the implementation of optical learning machine is also discussed.

A finite model eye of visual acuity 24/20 in emmertropia was presented. We determined the image intensity profile on retina using optical transfer function of model eye, and compared with clinical data. The retinal contrast sensitivity function based on the Stiles-Crawford effect, photopic response, diffraction, aberration, retinal contrast sensitivity, and pupil size is calculated. Visual acuity for human eye could be predicted by examining the modulation transfer function of a bar target and retinal contrast sensitivity function. This visual acuity was evaluated for pupil diameters ranging from 1 to 8 mm.

Fabrication process of strain-induced channel waveguides in $LiNbO_3$ was developed using strain-optic effect and compressional strain due to ~1.4 $\mu\textrm{m}$ surface Mo/Pt metal film. Characterization of the channel waveguides revealed a single transverse and depth mode in both TE and TM polarizations. Measurements showed total insertion loss of 6.2 and 7.7 ㏈/cm for TM and TE polarizations. respectively. Electro-optic intensity modulators with 11 mm long electrode length and 21 $\mu\textrm{m}$ electrode gap at $\lambda$ = 1.15 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$have been produced in $LiNbO_3$ substrates using strain-induced channel waveguides. Modulation depth of 100% at $\pi$-radian voltage of 16.1V has been demonstrated. Also, 1$\times$2 on/off power splitters at $\lambda$ = 0.63 $\mu\textrm{m}$ have been produced using strain-induced channel waveguides. On/off voltage of $\pm$ 25V has been demonstrated.

In this paper we propose a binocular holographic three-dimensional (3D) imaging system using optical scanning holography. To realize a binocular 3D holographic imaging system, we could acquire the complex holograms of a real object after designing a holographic display system based on interpupillary distance and pupil size, and these holograms could be optically reconstructed following numerical signal processing with an amplitude spatial light modulator. The proposed binocular 3D holographic imaging system using optical scanning holography was verified experimentally.

In this paper, a novel intensity-based fiber optic vibration sensor using a mass-spring structure, which consists of four serpentine flexure springs and a rectangular aperture within a proof mass, is proposed and its feasibility test is given by the simulation and experiment. An optical collimator is used to broaden the beam which is modulated by the displacement of the rectangular aperture within the proof mass. The proposed fiber optic vibration sensor has been analyzed and designed in terms of the optical and mechanical parts. A mechanical structure has been designed using theoretical analysis, mathematical modeling, and 3D FEM (Finite Element Method) simulation. The relative aperture displacement according to the base vibration is given using FEM simulation, while the output beam power according to the relative displacement is measured by experiment. The simulated sensor sensitivity of $15.731{\mu}W/G$ and detection range of ${\pm}6.087G$ are given. By using reference signal, the output signal with 0.75% relative error shows a good stability. The proposed vibration sensor structure has the advantages of a simple structure, low cost, and multi-point sensing characteristic. It also has the potential to be made by MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) technology.

We develop a fiber optic acceleration sensor with LED, PD, POF, and a cantilever beam, having film grating at the edge of the beam. Light is transmitted from LED to PD through the film grating. When the cantilever beam moves by external vibration, output light is modulated as sinusoidal signals. The characteristics of output signals are dominated by the spacing of the film grating and also by the size and the elasticity of the beam. Two output signals, having constant initial phase difference, are obtained by two gratings with 90 degree phase difference. Those two signals are used to determine phase angle, which is proportional to the displacement of the beam. Finally, the acceleration is determined from conversion equation between displacement and acceleration. This sensor is designed for monitoring the vibration of large and complex building in the low frequency range of below 7 Hz, and is particularly suitable to measure acceleration in electromagnetic environments.

In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate a self-seeding FP-LD (Fabry Perot Laser Diode) to verify the possibility of a new tunable light source that can be used in WDM-PON (Wavelength Division Multiplexing - Passive Optical Network) system. The conventional implementation of WDM-PON using a tunable light source has a disadvantage that the center wavelength of the AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating) device and the tunable light source must be precisely aligned. However, the proposed tunable light source has the advantage that the tunable wavelength is automatically aligned with the center wavelength of the AWG as well as simple structure. The implemented tunable light source had a tunable band of about 14 nm or more, and the maximum RIN (Relative Intensity Noise) of about -124 dB/Hz, which showed the possibility of modulating 10 Gb/s signal by an external modulator.
