  • 기준광과 탐사광의 경로길이가 매우 크게 차이가 나는 경로길이 불일치 간섭계(unequal path interferometer)를 이용한 직경 300mm 카세그레인 형태의 인공위성 망원경과 같은 대구경 광학계의 변조전달함수(modulation transfer function : MTF)와 파면오차를 동시에 측정하는 방법을 제안하고 이를 실험적으로 확인하였다. 이러한 경로불일치 간섭계를 이용한 측정시스템에서 필요한 평행한 시준광을 만들기 위해서 쌍방향 층밀리기 간섭계를 사용하였으며, 파면오차를 측정하기 위해서 직경 400 mm인 비축 포물경을 사용하는 긴 광경로차의 대구경 피조우 간섭계를 사용하였다. 또한 회전하는 확산판을 이용하여 레이저 광을 부분가간섭광으로 바꿈으로써 피조우 간섭계의 파장으로부터 쉽게 MTF를 측정할 수 있었다.

  • 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%.

  • Observations with milliarsecond resolution using the Navy Optical Interferometer have been obtained for a number of stellar systems which include high-mass binaries, eclipsing binaries, and radio stars. These observations also reveal the previously unseen companions in single-lined spectroscopic binaries via directly measured flux ratios. We will present examples of published and ongoing research efforts of these systems to illustrate how an optical interferometer contributes to our knowledge of stars, their environment, and companions. These studies include a conclusive revealing of the previously unseen companion in the single-lined binary ${\Phi}$ Herculis, the direct determination of orbital parameters in the wide and close orbits of Algol, and revealing the orbit of ${\beta}$ Lyrae with spatially resolved images of the $H{\alpha}$ emission.

  • In this paper, we suggested the diagnosis of the optical FSK transmitter output characteristics using the Micheloson interferometer. The transmitter is designed by the direct frequency modulation effect of a semoconductor laser diode. The optical FSK transmitter consists of a temperature stabilized semiconductor laser diode and an optimally designed equalizer. It is modulated by 100Mbit/s PRBS Generator to diagonosis of Optical FSK transmitter output characteristics. The Michelson Interferometer is used for the optical frequency discriminator which transforms the output frequency of the transmitter to the amplitude of light. The measurement of the performance of the transmitter to the amplitude of light. The measurement of the performance of the transmitter computer the transmitted data and their eye pattern with the simulation results, the received data and their eye pattern. As the result of experiment, the data transfer rate of the transmitters is 100Mbit/s.

  • Digital Tolansky interferometer which is Tolansky interferometer interfaced to the computer through CCD TV-camera, is developed and applied to the surface topography. First, resolution of this system is determined by minimum measurable thickness of thin film. Theoretical analysis and experimenatal results are compared. Second, surface topographic picture of thin is obtained by two orthogonal fringes. Using linear fitting method, height distribution of specimen is obtained and 3-dim. picture is plotted.

  • A wavelength-independent optical sensor based on an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer (AMZI) is proposed. The optical sensor based on an AMZI is very sensitive to wavelength, and wavelength drift will lead to measurement error. The optical sensor is compensated to reduce its dependence on wavelength. The insensitivity of the optical sensor to wavelength mainly depends on the compensation structure, which is composed of an AMZI cascaded with another AMZI and can compensate the wavelength drift. The influence of wavelength drift on the optical sensor can be counteracted by carefully designing the size parameters of the compensation structure. When the wavelength changes from 1549.9 nm to 1550.1 nm, the error after compensation can be lower than 0.066%. Furthermore, the effect of fabrication tolerance on compensation results is analyzed. The proposed compensation method can also be used to compensate the drift of other parameters such as temperature, and can be applied to the compensation of other interference-based optical devices.

  • We proposed an optical encryption system using circular polarization based on interferometer. The phase modulated input image, represented as orthogonal linearly polarized states respectively, is encrypted into circularly polarized states using polarization modulated masks. In the decryption we use the inverse matrix of polarization modulation mask and can recover the original polarization states.

  • We synthesized and analyzed the optical transfer function(OTF) of the modified triangular interferometer (MTI) using two-pupil synthesis method. Also, we presented the optimal MTI, which can obtain any bipolar function by combining two wave plates and a linear polarizer. By using the proposed MTI, we can obtain the complex hologram without bias and conjugate image.

  • Three types of functionalized flexible optical composite films based on Bragg structure porous silicon interferometer have been successfully fabricated by casting a toluene solution of polystyrene onto the free-standing porous silicon. The optical properties of composite films are measured. Surface functionalization of porous silicon is determined by FT-IR measurement. Reflectance and transparence properties of composite films are measured for the possible application of tunable optical filter and indicate that the transmission peak occurred at the identical location where the reflection peak appeared.
