We have demonstrated a low speed weigh-in motion system using FBG sensors and performed field test at a trial road. Technique, called identical chirped grating interrogation, have used for a demodulation relying on the mismatching of two identical broadband chirped gratings. We compensated the fluctuation of LED power and the temperature of sensor and used a lock-in amplifier to reduce effect of noise. We could design a bending plate that the measurement results are independent of position of weight. The FBG sensors weigh-in motion system showed linearity and reproducibility.

We constructed a quasi-distributed fiber-optic sensor network for the safety monitoring in power systems. It is possible to construct many of FBG sensors in a line and to be immune from electromagnetic noise. For demodulation analysis of reflected wavelength from FBG sensor, we proposed a simple and fast system using a InGaAs photo-diode array and a holographic diffraction grating. For accuracy improvement of the proposed demodulation system, we applied a Gaussian line-fitting algorithm. We obtained about 4[pm] of wavelength resolution and stability.

A single-mode erbium-doped fiber laser is constructed by using a intracore fiber Bragg grating and a unidirectional fiber loop mirror. The laser cavity is designed in such a way that the laser beam forms a travelling wave in the gain medium by placing the erbium-doped fiber inside the unidirectional loop and that the wavelength-selective feedback is made from the outside of the loop by a fiber grating with 0.2 nm reflection linewidth. An additional fiber ring resonator is constructed and used as an optical spectrum analyzer to observe the variation of the laser mode spectra. As the result, relatively stable single mode, single polarization output is observed for the most of the time except some mode hoppings in minute scale due to enviommental temperature variations. tions.

An all fiber coupler-type add/drop filter has been fabricated by writing a Bragg grating in the coupling region of a fused fiber coupler. The fused fiber coupler with 99.8% coupling ratio and 74/m coupling coefficient was used for the add/drop filter. The add/drop filter shows 99% reflectivity and 83% drop efficiency at the operating wavelength of 1536.2nm.

In order to make full color cholesteric displays, color filter-less R, G, B sub-pixel structured cholesteric LC cells have been studied. To make R, G, B colors, UV induced pitch variant chiral dopant was added to cholesteric LC mixtures. The concentration of the photo-sensitive chiral dopant was adjusted so that the initial state showed blue color and the color was changed from blue to green and red with increase of UV irradiation to the cholesteric cells. To prevent the mixing of R, G, B reflective sub-pixel liquid crystals, separation walls were formed using negative photo resister in boundary area between sub-pixels. Through the optimization of the material concentrations and UV irradiation condition, vivid R, G, B colors were achieved.

We present a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor system for measuring static and high-speed dynamic strains with a resolution of about $5\mu$strain. This sensor system demodulates signals from the FBG sensor utilizing a compensated tunable narrow bandpass filter. We have placed a set of twelve FBGs to concrete specimen and measured its internal stress under various applied load conditions.itions.

This study numerically investigates the wave control of 2-rowed Impermeable Rectangular Submerged Dike(IRSD) with an object of how to control short-period and solitary waves simultaneously based on the Bragg resonance phenomenon that elevates the wave control performance. The boundary integral method using Green formula and the 3-D one-field Model for immiscible TWO-Phase flows (TWOPM-3D) by 3-D numerical wave flume have been used for the numerical predictions for short-period and solitary waves, respectively. These numerical models were verified through the comparisons with the previously published numerical results by other researchers. Through the parametric tests of numerical experiments for short-period waves, an optimum model of 2-rowed IRSD of a lowest transmission coefficient has been found. Furthermore, the performances of 3-D wave control for solitary waves were evaluated for the various free board, crown widths and gap distance between dikes, and have been compared with those of a single-rowed IRSD. Numerical results show that a 2-rowed IRSD with a less cross sectional area than 1-rowed one improves the wave attenuation performances when it is compared to that of single-rowed IRSD. Within the test frequency ranges of the numerical simulations conducted in this study, 2-rowed IRSD with an optimum gap distance shows an outstanding improvement of the wave attenuation up to 58% compared to that of single-rowed IRSD.

Wavefront control은 렌즈, 거울 등을 포함한 많은 광학소자를 대체할 수 있는 기술이며, 이는 광 직접 소자 개발에 매우 유용하다. 기존의 Distributed bragg reflector (DBR) 구조의 경우 lattice mismatch, 낮은 효율, 작은 굴절률 차이의 물질만을 사용해야 하는 문제 등으로 광 직접 소자에의 적용에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 한계점을 극복하고, 더 나아가 광학소자 구조 내에서의 빛의 거동을 조절하기 위해서 High-index contrast grating (HCG), 즉, 큰 굴절률 차이가 나는 물질로 이루어진 격자 구조 내의 빛이 가지는 waveguide 특성에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 굴절률 차이가 큰 물질을 sub-wavelength의 주기적인 혹은 비주기적인 격자 구조로 만듦으로써 투과된 빛의 투과도와 위상 등을 조절할 수 있고 이를 통해 빛의 초점 거리, 휘어짐을 조절 할 수 있다. HCG 구조 내의 빛의 거동을 Rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) 및 Finite element method (FEM) 계산을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였다. RCWA 계산을 통해 주기 격자구조의 투과도 및 반사도, 빛의 위상을 계산하여 비주기를 갖는 전체적인 HCG 구조를 결정하였고, FEM 계산을 통하여 그 구조 내에서 빛의 거동을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 1,300 nm 파장의 빛이 광원으로 사용되었고 시뮬레이션을 위해 낮은 굴절률의 물질로 ITO, 높은 굴절률의 물질로는 Si이 사용되었다. $15{\mu}m$ 포커싱, $7.91^{\circ}$의 휘어짐을 시뮬레이션 하였고, 실제 소자 공정을 하여 제작한 후, 광 측정 결과 포커싱은 $15{\mu}m$, 휘어짐은 $4.5{\sim}6.5^{\circ}$를 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 HCG구조체를 통하여 빛의 엔지니어링이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. HCG구조체는 빛이 투과하는 광학 소자의 전반에 적용이 가능하며 더 나아가 인위적인 빛의 엔지니어링이 가능함을 시사한다.

Fiber Bragg grating which has a blazed ang1e to the plane of incident wave generates a side-mode as well as main-mode. The side-mode has an identical characteristics with a long period grating that couples with a cladding mode, so rejects the special wavelength. We experimented on the side-mode characteristics with two fibers which Ge doped depressed index fiber and very high photosensitive H$_2$ loaded step index fiber according to the tilted angle. Also, using a phase mask equipped with rotation plate which has 0.02$^{\circ}$ resolution, we can control the bandwidth and the peak value of a total loss spectrum by aligned tilted grating in a fiber and using this, tried to compose the ASE band rejection filter of the Erbium doped fiber amplifier.

With the rapid and wide-spread use of mobile communications much attention has been focussed on propagation in the urban area crowed with buildings. It is often surrounded by hills, forests, and mountains. The importance of surface scattering interference between transmitters and receivers on the rough surfaces has been interested and investigated. Therefore, a prediction method is necessary to estimate the influence of rough surfaces on microwave radio propagation. Moreover, most of the mobile communications are performed based on the digital communication system rather than the analog one. In this case, we must pay more careful attention to the signal delay caused by the phase delay due to the multi-path propagation. In this paper we have analyzed numerically scattering of electromagnetic waves from Composite structures by using FVTD (Finite Volume Time Domain) method. We consider two different types of rough surfaces such as periodic and composite structures.
