  • We present the optimization of a birefringence-enhanced-waveguide (BWG)-based polarization beam splitter (PBS) in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration and analyze the structure-dependent or polarization-dependent phase difference, using a delay-line MZI (DL-MZI). We fabricate the DL-MZI using silica-based planar lightwave circuit technology and, using the DL-MZI, demonstrate the ability to optimize a PBS by measuring the birefringence of the BWG and structure-dependent phase offset.

  • GENMET(GEneralized Multihop Network) which is based on Wavelength-Division Multiplexsing(WDM) and can be used in order to construct the next generation lightwave network is a logical(virtual), packet-switched and multihop topology network. GENMET is a regular multihop network which is a generalization of Shuffle network and do Bruijn network As such, it has the advantage of simple routing which is critical in a high speed network Given a physical topology, different logical topologies can be derived for assigning wavelengths to the UserNodes. By appropriately assigning wavelengths, performance of the network, such as mean hop count, maximum throughput and mean packet delay can be improved. In this paper, we propose heuristic algorithms for effectively assigning a limited number of wavelengths to the given UserNodes. The Performance of proposed algorithm is compared with the random assignment and the lower bounds.

  • Even though the modulating signal frequency of the light is too high to detect directly, the signal can be extracted by frequency conversion at the same time as the detection by means of the non-linearity of the APD. An analysis is presented for super-high-speed optical demodulation by an APD with electronic mixing. A normalized gain is defined to evaluate the performance of the frequency conversion demodulation. The nonlinear effect of the internal capacitance was included in the small signal circuit analysis. We showed theoretically and experimentally that the normalized gain is dependent on the down converted difference frequency component. In the experiment, the down converted different frequency outputs became larger than the directly detected original signal for the applied local signal of 20㏈m.

  • Very compact 4-channel 200-GHz-spacing external cavity lasers (ECLs) were fabricated by hybrid integration of reflection gratings and superluminescent laser diodes on a planar lightwave circuit chip. The fifth-order gratings as reflection gratings were formed using a conventional contact-mask photo-lithography process to achieve low-cost fabrication. The lasing wavelength of the fabricated ECLs matched the ITU grid with an accuracy of ${\pm}0.1$ nm, and optical powers were more than 0.4 mW at the injection current of 80 mA for all channels. The ECLs showed single mode operations with more than 30 dB side lobe suppression.

  • A novel planar lightwave circuit(PLC) triplexer using a three-waveguide interferometer(TWI) is proposed and examined using the transfer matrix and the beam propagation methods. The proposed triplexer consists of two three-waveguide couplers and three waveguides connecting the couplers. Simulation for the TWI triplexer shows the excess losses of 0.03 dB and 0.94 dB with the crosstalks of -22.3 dB and -14.5 dB in reception, respectively, for the wavelength of 1490- and 1550-nm, while showing the excess loss of 1.75 dB in transmission for the wavelength of 1310 nm. The proposed design shows compact feature as short as 11.5 mm for the refractive-index contrast of 0.45%.

  • The environmental and mechanical reliability of planar lightwave circuit (PLC)-type optical splitter modules is investigated with references [1, 3]. The module is composed of Y-branching silica-based waveguides on Si connected to optical fiber with UV-curable adhesives and is packaged in a metal case which is filled with humidity-resistant resin. High optical performance such as low loss, low reflection, and thermal stability are obtained through the use of this fiber connection technique. Ten reliability tests including long-term environmental and mechanical and ALT test were carried out for more then ten $1{\times}32$ channel PLC splitter modules.

  • 저가격, 높은 생산성, 고해상도를 가지는 소자의 패턴 제작 방법에 대한 요구가 계속적으로 증가하고 있다. 롤투롤 연속생산 공정은 저비용, 대량생산이 가능한 차세대 공정으로 각광받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PLC (planar lightwave circuit) 소자의 제작을 위해서 롤투롤 공정을 이용하여 제조하는 방법을 연구하였다. 제안한 기술은 polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 고분자를 이용하여 롤투롤 공정을 통해 PLC소자를 제작하는 공정을 연구하였다. 실리콘 웨이퍼에 형성된 마이크로 패턴을 복제 공정을 수행하였으며 이를 원통금형에 적용하여 롤투롤 공정의 롤 몰드(roll mold)로 사용하였다. 웹 텐션과 웹 속도의 공정 조건 최적화로 롤투롤 공정을 이용하여 PLC소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 PLC소자는 약4.0dB의 삽입손실을 가지는 $1{\times}2$ 광분배기이며, 제안한 롤투롤 공정 기술을 이용한 PLC소자의 제작 공정이 대량연속생산에 유효함을 확인하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 평판형 광도파로 상에 마하젠더 간섭계를 형성한 습도센서의 특성을 제시하고자 한다. 평판형 광도파로의 마하젠더 간섭계의 한쪽 팔에 PVP를 코팅함으로써 센서 주변의 외부 습도를 측정하였다. 습도를 계측할 간섭계의 한쪽 팔은 10 mm 폭으로 에칭하고, 에칭된 곳에 폴리비닐피롤리돈 (PVP)를 코팅하였다. PVP는 습도변화에 의해서 굴절률의 변화가 일어나므로, PVP로 코팅된 습도 센서는 평판형 광도파로 근처 상대습도의 차이에 따라 광간섭무늬의 변화를 나타내었다. 이에 대한 측정 결과를 통해 30%~80% 상대습도 범위에서 습도센서로써 작동함을 확인할 수 있었다.
