파장 분할 다중화 방식 (WDM)의 광통신은 중앙 기지국에서 각 가입자에게 서로 다른 파장을 할당하여 동시에 데이터를 전송하는 방식으로서 각 가입자는 할당된 파장을 이용하여 항상 데이터를 송/수신할 수 있고 각 가입자에게 대용량의 데이터를 전송할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 통신의 보안성이 뛰어나고 성능 향상이 용이하다 따라서 상, 하향(양방향, bidirectional) 3 파장 WDM-필터 소자(Flat band-path filter)는 광 가입자망 구축에서 통신 방송을 융합한 양방향 고화질 멀티미디어 서비스 사업에 반드시 필요로 하는 원천 부품이다. 본 연구에서는 1차원 광자결정을 이용한 저 손실 양방향 3 파장 WDM-필터를 얻을 수 있는 이론적 모델을 설계하고 그에 따라 2-cavity $Ta_2O_5/SiO_2$ 1차원 광자결정체를 제작하고 그 특성을 고찰 하였다. 파장에 따른 투과도 측정 결과 1550nm파장에서 투과되고 1310nm 및 1490nm파장에 대한 차단이 이론값과 일치하였다. 1550nm 파장 대에서 손실이 매우 낮은 flat-투과 밴드가 생성되었다. 특히 입사각도에 따라 flat-band 중심 파장의 변화를 이용하므로 새로운 개념의 WDM 소자로의 응용이 가능하다.

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.

인공위성 영상자료를 이용하는 원격탐사는 지질, 환경, 지형도제작 등 다양한 분야에서 연구되고 있다. 특히 다중 및 초분광영상자료는 태양을 에너지원으로 하여 지표면 전자기파의 반응을 영상화하는 다중 및 초분광영상자료의 활용을 위해 분광반사율정보가 더욱 활발하게 이용될 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 고창지역에 대해 주기적으로 실시하고 있는 분광반사율 및 USGS 분광라이브러리 성과를 이용하여 다중파장대 위성영상자료인 ASTER와 분광반사율을 이용한 위성영상의 활용가능성 및 검보정의 가능성을 제시 하고자 한다.

다중모드간섭을 이용한 소자는 집적광학에서 광신호의 분리와 결합에 있어서 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 소자는 편광상태와 파장에 덜 민감하며, 광 대역폭과 제작 허용오차가 크다는 장점을 가진다. 이러한 다중모드간섭기의 설계에 있어서 간섭기의 폭은 주로 출력단에서의 도파로 폭과 도파로간 간격으로부터 정해져왔다. 본 연구에서는 특별히 광신호의 효율적인 분배를 위해 간섭기의 폭과 관련하여 광 분배기의 손실 및 균일도를 최적화하기 위한 방안을 강구하였으며, 근사적인 이론식에 의한 결과와 비교하였다. (중략)

In this paper, Passive Temperature Compensation Technology is apply to 8-channel Optical multiplexer with 1000Hz channel spacing. The 8-channel multiplexer is fabricated by connecting three cascaded Mach Zehnder Interferometer(MZI) of optical fiber type, and each interferometer has the wavelength interval of 100GHz, 2000Hz and 4000Hz, respectively. Furthermore, to acquire uniform insertion loss, it is fabricated by using Wavelength Flatten Coupler(WFC) in which the variation of insertion loss is low. $CO_2$ laser to adjust precisely the wavelength. The optical fiber is very sensitive in the thermal variation around. Thus, When fabrication the prototype, it is applied a technique to compensate the optical thermal effect because the center wavelength at the output is shifted according to the thermal variation around. In summary, The prototype composed by eight cascaded MZI has an insertion loss of 5.5 dB, the bandwidth of 0.8nm at 0.5 dB point, and channel crosstalk of 25 dB. Furthermore, the loss dependent on polarization is measured as 0.06dB. Consequently, the output wavelength is shifted within 0.05 m when the surrounding temperature varies until $60^{\circ}C$

We designed and fabricated a compact multi-mode interference (MMI) wavelength demultiplexer using the concept of 'Improved Quasi-State' modes. The output power and extinction ratio were improved by utilizing modal phase error which is specially occurred in low-index contrast. For a designed demultiplexer, the mode propagation analysis with effective index approximation shows significant improvement of extinction ratio to -25 dB for both $1.31{\mu}m\;and\;1.51{\mu}m$ wavelength region and the split-length was reduced about 1/5 of other MMI devices. The fabricated device shows successful characteristics for both 1.31 and $1.55{\mu}m$ wavelengths. These results demonstrate the potential of low-index materials system and the embossing process for photonic integrated circuits.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution is a typical health hazard, resulting in about 7 million premature deaths each year. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is one of the major air pollutants, and the combustion process with sulfur-containing fuels generates it. Measuring SO2 generation in large combustion environments in real time and optimizing reduction facilities based on measured values are necessary to reduce the compound's presence. This paper describes the concentration measurement for SO2, a particulate matter precursor, using a wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) of tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS). This study employed a quantum cascade laser operating at 7.6 ㎛ as a light source. It demonstrated concentration measurement possibility using 64 multi-absorption lines between 7623.7 and 7626.0 nm. The experiments were conducted in a multi-pass cell with a total path length of 28 and 76 m at 1 atm, 296 K. The SO2 concentration was tested in two types: high concentration (1000 to 5000 ppm) and low concentration (10 ppm or less). Additionally, the effect of H2O interference in the atmosphere on the measurement of SO2 was confirmed by N2 purging the laser's path. The detection limit for SO2 was 3 ppm, and results were compared with the electronic chemical sensor and nondispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor.

There are two approaches in measuring colors (or chromaticity) in water, i.e., visual comparison method and spectrophotometric method. The color of sample was determined by comparing with that of platinum-cobalt standard solution in the visual comparison method. Single or multiple wavelengths are used for the spectrophotometric method. As the accuracy and precision of visual comparison method depend on the eye sight of the analyzer, the results are not so reliable and representative. In addition, it is hard to measure chromaticity less than 5 TCU. Single wavelength approach in spectrophotometric method, can be applied for groundwater or surface water with natural organic matter (i.e., humic substances) while it's hard to measure the color of wastewater which includes anthropogenic chemical compounds. The measurements with multiple wavelengths approach resulted in reliable data regardless of the source of sample water, i.e., surface water and wastewater. As dozens of measurements and complicated calculations for one sample were required for the multiple wavelengths approach, the approach could not be applied for field measurement. In the present study, the authors tested efficient method which could measure the color of water sample accurately and precisely regardless of the source of water. With the colorimeter with multiple wavelengths and calculation program, the colors of water samples could be measured within 3~4 seconds with accuracy and precision.

Using one of the absorption lines of $^{13}C_2H_2$ molecules near the zero dispersion wavelength(1549.49nm) of dispersion shifted fiber, we stabilized center frequency of an optical fiber Fabry-Perot filter. The free spectral range of the filter is 100 GHz for 100 GHz channel allocation. For equi-spaced three channel multiplexing, channel locking of three DFB-LDs to transmission peaks of the fiber Fabry-Perot filter was tried. To investigate the effect of dithering current applied to each DFB-LD, the change of DFB-LD linewidth was measured.

We have studied the dispersion properties of a 40 channel x 10 Gbit/s wavelength division multiplexer(WDM) transmission link using standard single mode fiber with all EDFA amplification over 30 x 100 km spans. The dispersion map of the link was investigated by adding fiber sections with positive or negative dispersion at the transmitter, within each amplifier span, and at the receiver. Optimum combinations of these dispersive fiber lengths were attained to significantly enhance the overall transmission performance.
