  • This paper presents the integrated fluorescent oxygen sensor probe module based on planner lightwave circuits using UV imprint lithography. The oxygen sensor system is consisted of the optical source part, optical detector part and optical sensing probe part to be composed of the planner lightwave circuit and oxygen sensitive thin film layer. Firstly, we optimally designed the planner lightwave circuit with asymmetric $1{\times}2$ beam splitter using beam propagation method. Then, we fabricated the planner lightwave circuits using UV imprint lithography process. This planner lightwave circuits transmitted the optical power with 76% efficiency and the fluorescence signal with 70% efficiency. The oxygen sensitive thin film layer is coated on the end face of planner lightwave circuit. The oxygen sensor system using this sensor probe module with planner lightwave circuit could measure the concentration with 0.3% resolution from 0% to 20% gas range. This optical oxygen sensor probe module make it possible to compact, simple and cheap measurement system.

  • Recent years, optical components'are widely used in optical communication industry for high speed and mass storage data processing. Micro grooving of planar lightwave circuit and glass, those are widely used in optical component, are realized by polycrystalline diamond tool with ultrasonic vibration. To know the characteristics of brittle materials cutting, ultrasonic vibration cutting tool and machining system are built for the experiment. Grooving on planar lightwave circuit and glass experiments are performed and their shape are measured by photograph with microscope. It reveals that better groove shape with low chipping of planar lightwave circuit and glass are obtained by micro grooving machining with ultrasonic vibration. These experiments are considered as a possibility to the micro grooving of optical communication components.

  • Arrangement graph has desirable properties for design requirements of a multihop lightwave network, such as node and edge symmetry, low diameter, simple routing, etc. In this paper, arrangement lightwave network based on arrangement graph model is proposed as new logical topology of multihop lightwave network. In the proposed scheme, multistar and grouping of network are used for improving reusability of wavelength and scalability. Also, this paper shows that the proposed scheme is an alternative logical topology for application requiring more nodes with limited wavelengths by evaluating performance with related works.

  • We propose and experimentally demonstrate an all-optical radio frequency (RF) spectrum broadening system based on time compression. By utilizing the procedure of dispersion compensation values, the frequency domain is broadened by compressing the linear chirp optical pulse which has been multiplexed by the radio frequency. A detailed mathematical description elucidates that the time compression is a very preferred scheme for spectrum broadening. We also report experimental results to prove this method, magnification factor at 2.7, 8 and 11 have been tested with different dispersion values of fiber, the experimental results agree well with the theoretical results. The proposed system is flexible and the magnification factor is determined by the dispersion values, the proposed scheme is a linear system. In addition, the influence of key parameters, for instance optical bandwidth and the sideband suppression ratio (SSR), are discussed. Magnification factor 11 of the proposed system is demonstrated.

  • A polymer-based planar-lightwave-circuit-type variable optical attenuator (VOA) was fabricated using a hot embossing process. With an optimized one-step embossing process, forty micro-channels for the guidance of light were defined on a polymer thin film with an accuracy of ${\pm}0.5{\mu}m$. The fabricated polymeric thermo-optic VOA shows 30 dB attenuation with 110 mW electrical input power at $1.55{\mu}m$. The rise and fall times are less than 5 ms.

  • The optical fiber micro-cellular system requires the high linearity that determines the quality and capacity of system. Hence, there is a need for improving the linearity in mobile communication system. In order to compensate dispersion-induced signal distortion, we fabricated the optical feedforward transmitter. The compared 3rd-IMD was enhanced by 38 dB for two-tone case and the Adjacent Channel Power Ratio was enhanced by 20 dB for W-CDMA 1 carrier and by 16 dB for W-CDMA 3 carriers. Also, the induced noise level was reduced.

  • 고속 데이터 전송을 함에 있어서 레이저 다이오드(LD)를 이용한 광접속 시스템은 최근 중요한 화두가 되고 있다. LD에 의하여 변조된 광신호는 광자와 캐리어의 동역학적 특성에 영향을 받으며, 이와 같은 LD의 동작 특성을 위해하기 위해서는 율방정식(Rate Equation)을 분석해야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 유한차분법(FDM)을 이용하여 율방정식을 분석하기 위한 모델을 제시하였으며, 이때 주입되는 전류부분에 디지털 혹은 아날로그 신호를 인가함으로써, 광접속 시스템에서 LD의 대역폭, SFDR (Spurious Free Dynamic Rage) 그리고 비선형 특성을 분석하였다.

  • Graded-Index Multimode Optical fibers have recently received a lot of attention as regards their application and lightwave behavior in relation to broadband communication links. Accordingly, this aticle presents a novel lightwave mode analysis that solves the wave equation using a numerical analysis based on an eigenvalue problem method, thereby avoiding the typical complicated Bessel function method. Angular depedences and number of modes were observed as well. Future research implications will be possibly noticed such areas as bending effects and mode coupling analyses thru this research.
