In this study, we fabricated the semiconductor laser for optical sensor with 1.55${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$wavelength region. In order to suppress lasing oscillation and to reduce the reflectivity, the devices of bending type were designed and fabricated. Their output power were 1.6㎽ at a pulse drive current of 100㎃. When the fabricated device was applied to optical fiber gyroscope, the output power of optical fiber was 540㎻ at a CW drive current of 100㎃, the full width at half maximum spectral width was 53nm. And the random-walk coefficient was measured to be 2.5$\times$10­$^3$deg/√hr, the gyro output drift was also found to be 0.3 deg/hr. So we confirmed the possibility of application to use for light source of optical fiber gyroscope.

A new lightwave locking technique which can be used in tuning the wavelength of a local laser diode to the reference wavelength is presented in this paper. The optical frequency from the reference laser source and the optical frequency from the local slave VCO laser are heterodyned on a optical receiver, resulting in the 1.5GHz RF signal corresponding to the difference frequency between two input optical signals. The difference frequency is locked to the reference 1.5GHz oscillator source in off-set frequency locking loop. Using the commercialized microwave components, frequency difference detector can be easily established to lock the lightwave. The optical frequency of 1.55um laser diode which keeps the frequency off-set of 1.5GHz is locked to the input reference optical signal with the locking range of 320MHz.

We simulated 3rd order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) induced Carrier-to-Intermodulation Ratio (CIR) of laser diodes over a wide range of optical modulation index, and compared the results with commercial IMD3 induced CIR specification such as Composite Triple Beat (CTB) of DFB laser transmitter for CATV networks. It shows that the simulation results are in good agreement with the CATV CTB specification within 3dB margin. The results can be used to predict IMD3 induced CIR performance for various analog optical transmission systems with given optical modulation index and the number of transmission channels.

최근 광 응용기술, 레이저 및 광통신 기술이 빠르게 발전함에 따라 고부가 가치 광학박막의 규격이 높아지고 있으며, 덩어리와 같은 광학적, 기계적 특성을 갖는 광학박막이 요구되고 있다. 일반적으로 이러한 성능을 만족하는 광학박막을 제작하기 위해 전자빔으로 증발되어 기판에 증착되는 박막에 직접 산소 이온을 이온총을 이용하여 기판에 쏘아줌으로써 양질의 산화박막을 제작하는 이온빔 보조 증착법이 가장 많이 적용되고 있다. 여기서 이온빔은 증착되는 박막의 기둥구조를 파괴시켜 원래의 덩어리(bulk)에 가까운 성질을 갖는 조밀한 박막을 제작하는데 이용된다. 좀더 조밀한 박막을 만들어 덩어리에 가까운 성질을 갖도록 하기 위해서는 박막을 형성하는 이온들의 이온에너지를 높여주어야 하는데, 그 방법으로 이온빔 스퍼터링이나 RF 또는 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법 등이 있으며, 최근에는 medium frequency에 의한 twin-마그네트론 스퍼터링 기술을 이용하기도 한다$^{(1 4)}$ .

The wavelength and output power of semiconductor laser is varying sensitively with temperature. It must be stabilized by the aid of some proper stabilization technique in order to use it as a radiative source for heterodyne optical communication, optical metrology, and high resolution spectroscopy. In this paper, the temperature of the thermal chamber was variable from -27$-50^{\circ}C$ to +73$-50^{\circ}C$ and the temperature stability was within ${\pm}2m{\circ}K$ or better.

In this paper, We have proposed an Heterodyne technique to generate millimeter-wave signal. Microwave signals in cellular broadband mobile communication networks and distributed networks can favorably be generated and distributed by optical techniques. In principle, these techniques have already been investigated for optical control of phase- array antennas, characterization of photo-detector and phase locking of millimeter-wave oscillators and now being applied to wireless communications. The generation and transmission of millimeter-wave radio signals by optical means is of interest for future pico-cell broadband mobile communication system, especially for systems operating at frequencies of 300Hz.

Lasers for optical broadband communication systems should have excellent frequency selectivity and modal stability. DFB(Distributed Feedback) lasers have low lasing frequency shift during high speed current modulation. In this paper, I have developed a simulation software and analysed threshold gain and lasing frequency of a lasing mode in longitudinal direction of an 1.55um DFB laser with two mirrors and without anti-reflection coatings, that have both an index- and gain-gratings. The grating phase on a left mirror face is fixed as π/2 and the grating phase on a right mirror face is varied. As the phases of the index and gain gratings on the right mirror facet are π and 0, κL should be in the range of 2~6 in order to enhance the frequency stability. In order to reduce the threshold current of a lasing mode, κL should be greater than 8, regardless of the grating phases on the mirror faces.

The perimeter defense system was created and its characteristics were evaluated. It was designed to utilize the fiber sensing device, namely OTDR(Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) which has been used for the maintenance of the optical communication network. An OTDR was constituted by a pulse laser with the nature of 1310nm, +15dBm for the observation of 400 meter optical fence. The high-speed 32-bit processor(S3C2440) has applied to MPU(Main Processor Unit) which helps to improve the performance of OTDR algorithms. Consequently, the maximum error was 0.84 meter on the performance test of the 10km monitoring and the pass criteria of ${\pm}1m$ satisfied in all the sections. The alarm delay time was under 3 sec after detecting the disorder. For the case of secondary trespassing after primary trespassing, the optical switch was installed in OTDR to monitor the secondary trespassing and to measure the multi-point detection. Therefore, this paper shows that the detections of secondary trespassing and multi-point is possible by means of optical switch.

We propose a modified nonlinear fiber optic interferometer which can serve to generate binary optical pulse sequences for CDMA networks, and to decode them. In one arm cross-phase modulation between a CW signal and a counter- or copropagating high-power pulse takes place in sequences of segment connected via VDM couplers. Preliminary experimental results on code generation as well as autocorrelation and crosscorrelation are presented, using Sagnac interferometer. As we expected, the experimental results show that the outputs of the interferometer device are not summed simply on the basis of power, but the sin-squared version of it. Arbitrary codes can in principle be implemented.

There is a clear need for characterizing optical components with the growing role played by optical devices in measurement, communication, and photonics. A basic and useful measuring parameter to meet this need, especially for imaging systems, is the Modulation Transfer Function, or MTF. Over the past few decades new instrument, including the laser interferometer, the CCD camera, and the computer have revolutionized the measurement and calculation of the MTF. This has made what was tedious and involved into virtually an instantaneous measurement. We proposed a Simpson approxiamtion method to create MTF graph and illustrated real example to verify its method in this paper. This method is very useful while it is very useful because its error is very minor and small although its approximation.
