광 대역투과 필터$^{(1)(2)}$ 는 WDM 광통신 시스템에서의 채널 선별에 사용되거나 좁은 선폭의 광원을 제작하는 데 사용된다. 또한 광원의 파장을 분석하는 광스펙트럼 분석기나 광섬유 센서 시스템에서 신호처리용 파장 필터 등으로도 널리 쓰이고 있는 중요한 광소자 중에 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 코어 모드감쇠기와 음향광학 가변 필터$^{(3)}$ 를 사용하여 새로운 전광섬유 형태의 광 대역투과 필터를 구현하였다. 본 광 대역투과 필터는 필터의 중심 파장 및 필터의 투과율을 전기적으로 쉽고 빠르게 제어할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다.

파장다중분할 방식의 광통신소자는 단일파장 뿐만 아니라 이웃하는 여러 파장대에서도 동작 할 수 있는 유연성을 갖는 소자가 요구된다. 이를 해결하는 하나의 방법이 파장제어(다중채널)광자결정(Photonic crystal)소자이다. 본 연구에서는 결함층으로 광자결정체 배열구조를 가지는 다중주기 일차원광자결정을 이용하므로 투과광 파장제어가 가능한 가변형 다중채널 투과필터를 얻을 수 있는 이론적 모델과 그에 따라 제작된 $Si/SI_)2$의 광자결정체를 제작하고 그 특성을 고찰하였다. 반사밴드 갭내에 생성된 다중투과-dip의 파장 위치는 이론값과 정착하게 일치하였다. 특히, 결함층 수(N)에 따라 광자 에너지갭내에 2N개의 투과-dip 모드를 생성할 수 있으며, 이들은 주파수범위에 대해 대칭 분포됨을 알 수 있다. 여기에 제안하는 다중채널 투과필터는 외부 전원 없이 입사각도를 미세 조절하므로 파장을 tuning할 수 있다.

A tunable band-pass filter of fiber Bragg gratings incorporating the Sagnac loop interferometer configuration is presented. The proposed band-pass filter with extinction ratio 20 dB has practical advantages in terms of price and performance in comparison with the conventional band-pass filter using a circulator.

We propose a novel channel-switching transmission filter using segmented chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBG's) each of which has separate transmission bands in the reflection spectrum of the CFBG. The segmented CFBG's are made by using specially designed slits. The separated reflection spectral bands of the segmented CFBG's are controlled by the attached fiber stretchers, and the controlled reflection bands are used to choose the channels independently. Tunability of the transmission spectra is experimentally demonstrated in WDM transmission experiments.

We have demonstrated the wavelength tunable ultrashort pulse fiber ring laser proposed the novel method for measuring the cavity loss from relaxation oscillation frequency and the pump power. To suppress the polarization instability the laser cavity is configured with polarization maintaining fibers and to control the center wavelength a 2.4 nm bandwidth tunable wavelength filter was inserted in the cavity. The laser has 8 picosecond pulse width, 10 GHz repetition rate and 1.2 mW average power in 1530-1560 nm operation range.

This paper represents 50 ㎓ narrow band pass filters for fiber optical communication fabricated by dual ion beam sputtering method. We have analyzed the characteristics of the TA$_2$ $O_{5}$ and $SiO_2$ single layers in order to optimize the process conditions for the 50 ㎓ narrow band pass filters, and controlled the film thickness uniformity to less than 0.1 nm deviation by dual peak spike filter pre-deposition. We designed and fabricated 50 ㎓ narrow band pass filters that consist of 216 layers including 4 cavities based on quarter wave optical thickness. Class substrates with high thermal expansion coefficients were used to reduce the film stress. Anti-reflection coating at the rear side of the substrate was also needed to reduce the optical thickness errors of the Optical Monitoring System caused by multiple beam interference between the front side and the rear side of substrate. The optical characteristics of this 50 ㎓ narrow band pass filters are insertion loss of 0.40 ㏈, pass band ripple of 0.20 ㏈, and pass bandwidth at -0.5 ㏈ of 0.20 nm. and isolation bandwidth at -25 ㏈ of 0.6 nm, which satisfy specifications of dense WDM system in fiber optical communications.tions.

A Cr:LiSAF laser pumped by semiconductor lasers was constructed. The pumping laser was a high-power semiconductor laser (SDL 7432-H1) of wavelength 674 nm and maximum power of 500 mW. The laser crystal was a Cr:LiSAF of plano-Brewster shape with 3% Cr3+ion concentration and 3 mm in length. The plane facet of the crystal was coated to get the maximum transmittance of pupmping laser and maximu reflection over the 800 - 880 nm bandwidth. V-shaped resonator was used to compensate the astigmatism induced by the crystal. The output power of the Cr:LiSAF laser was 19.4 mW at the pumping power of 290 mW. The wavelength was tuned by a steep dive-angled birefringent filter from 840 nm to 880 nm and the characteristics of the filter were agreed well with a theory.
