We have experimentally observed and theoretically analyzed the gain dependent optimum repetition rates of a hybrid-type active and passive mode locked laser pulses in an erbium-doped fiber laser of the figure-of-eight geometry by utilizing a nonlinear amplifier loop mirror (NALM) as a saturable absorber and a directional-coupler type electro-optic modulator as an active mode locker. Transform-limited mode-locked pulses of about 10 ps width were obtained at repetition rates which correspond to harmonics of the cavity fundamental frequency and depend on the optical amplifier gain in the NALM.

In a broadband erbium-doped fiber source for fiber optic gyroscope, a pump-polarization scrambling scheme is used to suppress the polarization dependence of the source mean wavelength. The degree of polarization of the pump is reduced to 1.4% by applying proper modulation depth to the polarization modulator where 10 m-long single-mode fiber is wound on a cylindrical PZT. In the case of using the pump-polarization scrambler as well as the output depolarizer, the mean-wavelength variations due to the random change of polarization are measured to be less than our measurement limit of 5 ppm.

An experimental study was performed for turbulent flow behind a circular and a square cylinder by using 2-D PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) technique in a cylindrical tube. The Reynolds number investigated were 10,000, 30,000 and 50,000. The measuring system consists of CCD camera. Ar-ion laser, image grabber and a host computer. The mean velocity vector, time mean axial velocity, turbulent intensity and Reynolds shear stress were measured along the test tube. The results are compared each other for the circular and the square cylinder.

1x2 방향성결합형 광 변조기를 LiNbO3 기판상에 양자교환에 의한 자기정렬 방식으로 제작하였다. 양자교환후 광 도파로의 안정을 위해 열처리를 하였다. 본 연구에서는 광 도파로를 제작한 후 열처리 시간에 의한 도파로의 굴절을 변화의 관계에 대하여 연구하였으며 전계효과가 우수한 자기정렬방식을 선택하였다. 제작된 1x2 방향성결합형 광 변조기는 변조전압 8.0V에서 크로스토오크가 -29.5dB의 매우 우수한 특성을 나타내었다.

광대역 마이크로파 신호의 광전송시 변조과정에서 발생되는 상호잡음 성분의 억제를 위한 다단 직렬구조의 전계흡수 광변조기를 이용한 선형화 방법을 제안하였고 이론적으로 고찰하였다. 바이어스 전압에 따른 신호의 위상 반전이 발생되는 것을 이용하여 두 개의 서로 다른 바이어스 전압과 입력 마이크로파 신호의 전력 차를 이용하여 광대역 시스템의 성능을 좌우하는 IMD2와 IMD3를 동시에 억압시킬 수 있었다. 모의실험을 통하여 최적의 동작조건을 찾은 결과 35dB의 IMD2 억제와 50dB의 IMD3를 동시에 억압시킬 수 있었으며 이에 따라서 약 15dB의 동작영역의 증가를 얻을 수 있었다.

Y-branch directional coupler optica1 switches with two different coupling lengths are fabricated on z-cut LiNbO3 and tested at r = 1.3 rm. The normal mode and coupled mode theories are utilized to calculate device coupling length and switching voltage. Simulation of the beam propagation method (BPM) is also performed to confirm the device coupling lengths. For dc operation, experimental results are in good agreement with the modee theories expectation.

본 논문은 주파수 천이를 적용시킨 광무선(fiber-radio)시스템의 광링크부에 대한 성능분석을 한다. 제시된 광링크부는 CS(control station)에서 얻어진 밀리미터파 대역 광파일럿톤(optical pilot tone)이 하향링크뿐 아니라 상향링크에도 공급되도록 하여 BS(base station)의 구조를 간단히 하였다. 광파일럿톤을 얻기 위해 CS의 EOM(electro-optic modulator)을 MAB(maximum bias), MIB(minimum bias), QB(quadrature bias)로 바이어스를 달리할 수 있으며 각각의 경우에 따라 링크의 성능을 분석한다. 분석은 레이저 광원의 전력이 일정한 경우와 PD(photo detector)에 수신되는 광 DC 전력이 일정한 경우에 대해서 행하여지며 각 경우에 대해서 최적의 하향링크 CNR 및 상향링크 SFDR(spurious free dynamic range)을 얻기 위해 효과적인 바이어스 방식을 제시한다

This paper presents the physiological signal processing CMOS one chip for transmitting human bodys small electrical signals such as electrocardiogram(EKG) or electromyogram(EMG) and the external system for receiving signals was implemented by the commercial ICs. For simultaneous four-subject four-channel telemetry, a new enfored synchronization techniqeu using infrared bi-directional communication has been proposed. The telemeter IC with the size of 5.1*5.1mm$^{2}$ has the following functions: receiving of command signal, initialization of internal state of all functional blocks, decoding of subject-selection signal, time multiplexing of 4-channel modulated physiological signals, transmitting of telemetry signal to external system and auto power down control. The newly designed synchronized oscillator with low supply voltage dependence in the telemeter IC operates at a supply voltage from 4.6~6.0V and the nonlinearity error of PIM modulator was less than 1.2%F.S(full scale). The power saving block operates at the period of 2.5ms even if the telemetry IC does not receive command signal from external system for a constant time.

Impressive optical properties of graphene have been attracting the interest of researchers, and, recently, the photovoltaic effects of a heterojunction structure embedded with few layer graphene (FLG) have been demonstrated. Here, we show the direct dependence of open-circuit voltage (Voc) on numbers of graphene layers. After unavoidably adsorbed contaminants were removed from the FLGs, by means of in situ annealing, prepared by layer-by-layer transfer of the chemically grown graphene layer, the work functions of FLGs showed a sequential increase as the graphene layers increase, despite of random interlayer-stacking, resulting in the modulation of photovoltaic behaviors of FLGs/Si interfaces.
