In calculating the light propagation in inhomogeneous uniaxial materials by using a conventional $4{\times}4$ matrix method, Fabry-Perot effect is caused by inherent multiple internal reflections at interfaces for monochromatic light source. In this paper we propose an apodization method by which we can eliminate in negligible time the interference fringe in the $4{\times}4$ matrix optics. For a cell with k abrupt interfaces, the new apodization method can be implemented simply by, at maximum, (k+1) addtional $4{\times}4$ matrix multiplications in calculating the complete transfer matrix of the cell.

Cantilever-detected high-frequency electron spin resonance (ESR) is a powerful method of sub-terahertz and terahertz ESR spectroscopy for a tiny magnetic sample at low temperature. In this technique, a small magnetization change associated with ESR transition is detected as deflection of a sample-mounted cantilever. So far, we have succeeded in ESR detection at 370 GHz using a commercial piezoresistive microcantilever. The spin sensitivity was estimated to ${\sim}10^{12}$ spins/gauss. In order to further increase the sensitivity, we adopt a fiber-optic-based detection system using a Fabry-Perot interferometer in place of piezoresistive system. Fabry-Perot cavity is formed between an optical-fiber end and microcantilever surface, and a change in the interference signal, corresponding to the cantilever deflection, is sensitively detected. This system is suitable for low-temperature and high-magnetic-field experiments because of its compact setup and less heat dissipation. In this study, performance of Fabry-Perot interferometer is evaluated, and its application to cantilever-detected ESR measurement is described.

By using the single mode optical fiber, we fabricated Fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometer (FFPI). The change over a wide range in the optical path length of a FFPI is observed. The temporal movement of the interference fringes by external condition to P.Z. T) is converted to circular motion on an oscilloscope display and then recorded with a micro-computer. The two output voltages of the D/A converters are applied to X and Y terminals of oscilloscope to display circular motion on oscilloscope. Thus the direction of phase shift can be determined with observing the direction of circular motion. The variation of the optical length can be measured by calculating the angle of spot of circle with an accuracy of λ/90 wave length due to variation of temperature in this system 2.7x10-4$^{\circ}C$.

As the electrostrictive actuator for optic control, PZN-BT-PT ceramics were investigated for the influences of sintering conditions on the structural, electrostrictive properties and the optical properties of Fabry-perot Interferometer using eletrostrictive ceramics. The specimen SS15T, sintered 1hr at 1150$^{\circ}C$, is sutible for eletrostrictive actuator because its piezoelectric constants(dS131T) and strain(XS131T) at dc 10kV/cm had the higest value of 175${\times}$10S0-12TC/N, -255${\times}$10S0-6TΔl/l respectively. As the dc electric field increased, the interference effect of Fabry-Perot Interferometer was increased. The most intense interference fringe and the maximum power of 160${\mu}$W were observed at dc 6kV/cm. Thus it was considered that specimen SS15T could be used as the electrostrictive actuator for optic control.

The theoretical analysis and optimization of extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) opticalfiber humidity sensors are deeply investigated. For a typical dual-cavity structure composed of an optical fiber and a humidity-sensitive membrane (HSM), the changes in refractive index (RI) and initial length are discussed for polymer materials and porous oxide materials when relative humidity (RH) increases. The typical interference spectrum is simulated at different RH using MATLAB. The spectral change caused by changing HSM RI and initial length are simulated simutineously, showing different influences on humidity response. To deeply investigate the influence on RH sensitivity, the typical response sensitivity curves for different HSM lengths and air-cavity lengths are simulated. The results show that the HSM is the vital factor. Short HSM length can improve the sensitivity, but for HSM RI and length the influences on sensitivity are opposite, because of the opposite spectral-shift trend. Deep discussion and an optimization method are provided to solve this problem. According to analysis, an opaque HSM is helpful to improve sensitivity. Furthermore, if using an opaque HSM, a short air cavity and long HSM length can improve the sensor's sensitivity These results provide deep understanding and some ideas for designing and optimizing highly sensitive EFPI fiber humidity sensors.

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) optical fiber tip sensor fabricated by a blade-sawing technique using a fiber optic patch cord for high-resolution temperature measurement. The sensor head consists of a short air FP cavity near the tip of a single-mode fiber patch cord tip. The temperature which we can measure is determined through a phase variation of the interference fringes in the reflective spectrum of the sensor. The fiber optic FPI sensor in this work can monitor the environmental temperature very accurately from 40 to $120^{\circ}C$. As a result, the temperature sensitivity is obtained as $38.2pm/^{\circ}C$.

We propose a simple technique to obtain field-induced absorption changes of an electroabsorption waveguide by using photocurrent generated inside a waveguide. Photocurrent proportional to the absorbed power and displaying Fabry-Perot interference fringes were observed and the field-induced absorption changes were derived from the ratio of resonant and anti resonant currents in the photocurrent spectra. The field-induced absorption change of InGaAsP waveguide for 1.5V reverse bias voltage at 1.55 $\mu\textrm{m}$ was determined to be $~157\cm^{-1}$.

Recently, a number of underground pipelines have been drastically increased. The integrity of these buried pipelines, especially gas transmitting pipelines, is of importance due to an explosive characteristic of natural gas. The third party damage is known as one of the most critical factor which causes fatal accidents. For this reason, a number of systems detecting third party damage are under development. The major concern in the development of third party damage detection system is to transmit vibration signals out of accelerometer to signal conditioner and data acquisition system without any interference caused by noise. The objective of this paper is to develope a fiber optic accelerometer applicable to third party damage detection system. A fiber optic accelerometer was developed by use of combining principles of one degree of freedom vibration model and an extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer. The developed fiber optic accelerometer was designed to perform with a sensitivity of 0.06mVg, a frequency range of less than 6kHz and an amplitude range of -200g to 200g. The developed, accelerometer was compared with a piezoelectric accelerometer and calibrated. In order to verify the developed accelerometer, the field experiment was performed. From the field experiment, vibration signals and the location of impact were successfully detected. The developed accelerometer is expected to be used for the third party damage detection system which requires long distance transmission of signals.
