A Design and Fabrication of 565 Mbit/s Optical Fiber Transmission Link We calculated the transfer functions of optical channel components and formulated the optimum transfer function of optical receiver for optical transmission to show a design rule of fiber optical link for digital transmission. And we evaluated various causes of sensitivity degradation to determine the receiver specification. Also we fabricated and demonstrated a 565Mbit/s single mode fiber optic link, 27km, to show the practicality of designed fiber optic link. The output power of the transmitter was above -3dBm, and the sensitivity of the optical receiver was -37.8dBm which is the same value we expected. Also the dynamic range was more than 25dB.

ESPI는 비접촉 비파괴 방식으로 측정 대상체의 진동이나 변형에 따른 3차원 형상 정보의 취득에 효과적으로 사용되어 왔다. 측정 대상체와 계측 환경에 따라 면내, 면외, 전단간섭 등으로 구분할 수 있으며, 간섭계를 구성하는 광소자의 형태에 따라 벌크형과 광섬유형으로 나뉜다. 광섬유형 시스템은 크기가 작고 휴대하기 편하여 시스템 구성 및 정렬이 매우 용이하다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 면외 ESPI를 이용한 광학계를 구성하였고, PZT를 이용하여 위상 변조를 ${\pi}/2$만큼 주기적으로 가하여 CCD 카메라에서 이미지를 획득하였다. 획득한 스페클 패턴 이미지는 후처리 과정을 통해 측정 대상체의 3차원 위상 정보를 얻게 된다. 내부 결함이 존재하는 압력용기에 질소 가스를 주입하여 변화되는 phase map을 관찰하였고, 또한 phase map의 후처리를 통하여 압력에 따른 대상체의 변화를 3차원으로 확인하였다.

Piezoelectric ceramic fiber composite (PCFC) was fabricated using a planar electrode printed piezoelectric ceramic fiber driven in transverse mode for small-scale wind energy harvester applications. The PCFC consisted of an epoxy matrix material and piezoelectric ceramic fibers sandwiched by interdigitated electrode (IDE) patterned polyimide films. The PCFC showed an excellent mechanical performance under a continuous stress. For the fabrication of PCB cantilever harvester, five -PCFCs were vertically attached onto a flexible printed circuit board (PCB) substrate, and then PCFCs were serially connected through a printed Cu circuit. The energy harvesting performance was evaluated applying an inverted structure, which imples its free leading edge located at an open end but the trailing edge at a clamped end, to enhance strain energy in a wind tunnel. The output voltage of the PCB cantilever harvester was increased as the wind speed increased. The maximum output power was 17.2 ㎼ at a resistance load of 200 ㏀ and wind speed of 9 m/s. It is considered that the PCB cantilever energy harvester reveals a potential use for wind energy harvester applications.

When the charged particle travels in transparent medium with a velocity greater than that of light in the same medium, the electromagnetic field close to the particle polarizes the medium along its path, and then the electrons in the atoms follow the waveform of the pulse which is called as Cerenkov light or radiation. This type of radiation can be easily observed in a spent fuel storage pit. In optical fibers, the Cerenkov light also can be generated due to their dielectric components. Accordingly, the radiation-induced light signals can be obtained using optical fibers without any scintillating material. In this study, to measure the intensities of Cerenkov radiation induced by gamma-rays, we have fabricated the fiber-optic Cerenkov radiation sensor system using silica optical fibers, plastic optical fibers, multi-anode photomultiplier tubes, simulated spent fuel assembly and a scanning system. To characterize the Cerenkov radiation generated in optical fibers, the intensities of Cerenkov radiation generated in the silica and plastic optical fibers were measured. Also, we measured the longitudinal distribution of gamma rays emitted from the Ir-192 isotope by using the fiber-optic Cerenkov radiation sensor system and simulated spent fuel assembly.

In this study, we have fabricated an infrared optical fiber based sensor which can monitor the respiration of a patient. The design of a chalcogenide optical fiber based sensor is suitable for insertion into a high electro-magnetic field environment because the sensor consists of low cost and compact mid-infrared components such as an infrared light source, a chalcogenide optical fiber and a thermopile sensor. A fiber-optic respiration sensor is capable of detecting carbon dioxide ($CO_{2}$) in exhalation of a patient using the infrared absorption characteristics of carbon gases. The modulated infrared radiation due to the presence of carbon dioxide is guided to the thermopile sensor via a chalcogenide receiving fiber. It is expected that a mid-infrared fiber-optic respiration sensor which can be developed based on the results of this study would be highly suitable for respiration measurements of a patient during the procedure of an MRI.

본 논문에서는 PFOCS 형태의 전력기기용 고안정성 광섬유 CT 센서에 활용할 수 있는 광 신호처리기를 설계/구현하고 그 특성에 대하여 논의하였다. 본 논문에서 제작한 광 신호처리기는 PFOCS를 구성하는 광 부품에서 발생되는 광 손실이나 편광변화로 인한 출력 광의 강도 변화로 발생하는 측정 전류 오차를 줄이기 위해 사용된다. 또한, 광 신호처리기는 광전 변환부, 아날로그 신호처리부, 레벨 시프트 및 마이크로프로세서로 구성된 실시간 계측제어부를 일원화하여 소형/경량으로 제작되었다. 제작된 광 신호처리기의 특성 실험은, 전광섬유 소자로 구성된 PFOCS를 이용하여, 632.8nm 파장의 광원과 권선수가 약 1500인 솔레노이드에 전류를 인가해 $0{\sim}7,500A$의 범위에 대하여 수행하였다. 그 결과, 측정 전류의 선형성 오차는 1,000A에서 7,000A 범위에서 최대 1.7%미만, 평균 오차는 약 0.3% 미만으로 양호한 선형성을 보였다.

Optimum characteristics of digital X-ray sensor components were analyzed to develop intra- oral dental digital X-ray image sensor using indirect method. Parametric analysis was carried out to optimize the phosphor thickness and the fiber optic plate (FOP) coupling to charge coupled device (CCD). X-ray absorption and light diffusion in the phosphor layer were analyzed by the Monte Carlo method. Real time X-ray image was obtained with prototype X- ray image sensor using general CCD camera with 1∼10 Ip/mm resolution. It has been previously shown that large resolution degradation in X-ray images was caused by miss alignment of FOP to CCD and optical adhesive selection. In this study, we reported that X-ray image quality was greatly improved by using optimized characteristics of alignment device and phosphor thickness.

취상변조기나 3*3 광결합기와 같은 특수 광부품을 사용하지 않고도 간섭형 센서의 고감도를 유지할 수 있고, 주변환경의 변화에도 영향을 받지 않는 간섭형 광섬유 센서를 위한 신호처리 기술을 소개하였다. 이 기법은 간섭형 센서의 넓은 다이나믹 레인지와 고감도를 유지한 신호처리를 위해 레이저 다이오드의 주파수 처핑을 이용하며 주변환경의 변화에 의한 측정에러를 보상하기 위해 별도의 간섭계를 기준 간섭계로 사용하였다. 새로운 신호처리 기법을 거울 내장형 Fabry-Perot(FT) 간섭계 온도센서에 적용한 결과 1cm 광섬유 FP 간섭계 센서소자로 부터 $4\times10^{-3\circ}C$(광위상 4.5mrad)의 분해능을 얻었으며 광위상 변화량의 크기가 $\pi$ 이내로 제한되지 않으므로 다이나믹 레인지가 넓은 온도센서의 구현이 가능하였다.

Laser ablation with femtosecond lasers is highly promising for microfabrication of materials. Also, the high peak power of femtosecond lasers could induce a multiphoton absorption to ablate transparent materials. Similar results have also been were obtained in the case of optical fibers. In this paper, we present our experimental results of femtosecond laser microstructuring of optical fiber and its applications to microelectronic components and fiber optic devices. Finally, we directly produced micro holes with femtosecond laser pulses in a single step by moving an optical fiber in a preprogrammed structure. When water was introduced into a hole drilled from the bottom surface of the optical fiber, the effects of blocking and redeposition of ablated material were greatly reduced and the aspect ratio of the depth of the hole was increased. We have presented circular and rectangular-shaped holes in optical fiber.
