We demonstrate wavelength conversion of 2.5Gb/s optical signals by four-wave mixing (FWM) in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). We investigate the effect of input pump and signal powers on the coversion efficiency, optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) and extinction ratio to be a measure of performance in a wavelength converter. As a result, we show that the maximum bit error rate (BER) performance can be obtained by co promising among high-vonversion efficiency (minimum Pprobe), high-OSNR (maximum Pprobe) and low-cross-gain saturation effects (Pprobe kept at least 6dB weaker than Ppump). In our experiment, we obtain optimum performance at +3 dBm pump power and -6dBm signal power. The power penalty incurred in the wavelength conversion can be minimized by careful selection of the input pump and signal powers. We show that about 0.5dB power penalty for 3.2nm wavelength coversion at 10-10 BER is achievable.

A 150W industrial Nd:YAG laser was developed. The thermal lensing effect was examined and the radius and position of rear mirror were optimized for higher efficiency. The efficiency of 2.5% was achieved. Also, the performance of laser welding in fine thermocouples and between high-temperature-melting dissimilar metals were investigated.

A method for fabrication of holographic optical elements (HOE) using dichromated gelatin (DGG) as a recording material is presented. we describe the holographic properties of the DGG and the processing techniques. Holographic characteristics of the DGG including exposure characteristics, diffraction efficiency and angular sensitivity are also discussed. The diffraction efficiency of the obtained holographic grating is about 84%.

A critical issue in implementing efficient Ethernet passive optical network(EPON) System is the bandwidth allocation algorithm. The overall goal of bandwidth allocation is to effectively and fairly perform scheduling of time slots between ONUs in EPON System. We propose a new algorithm of dynamic bandwidth allocation for improved bandwidth efficiency in EPON system.

In the indirect optical bio-telemetry, high frequency response and low minimum detectable optical power can be achieved by using photodiode with small light receiving area which minimizes junction capacitance. But, on the other hand, S/N ratio becomes low because the optical signal current is small. To solve such a problem, we attach plato-convex lens in front of photo diode, The results of comput- er simulation and experiments suggest promotion of light receiving efficiency and possibility of multi- telemetry system through directivity of convex lens in one room.

We investigate the temperature dependence of the phosphor conversion efficiency (PCE) of the phosphor material used in a white light-emitting diode (LED) consisting of a blue LED chip and yellow phosphor. The temperature dependence of the wall-plug efficiency (WPE) of the blue LED chip and the PCE of phosphor are separately determined by analyzing the measured spectrum of the white LED sample. As the ambient temperature increases from 20 to $80^{\circ}C$, WPE and PCE decrease by about 4.5% and 6%, respectively, which means that the contribution of the phosphor to the thermal characteristics of white LEDs can be more important than that of the blue LED chip. When PCE is decomposed into the Stokes-shift efficiency and the phosphor quantum efficiency (QE), it is found that the Stokes-shift efficiency is only weakly dependent on temperature, while the QE decreases rapidly with temperature. From 20 to $80^{\circ}C$ the phosphor QE decreases by about 7% while the Stokes-shift efficiency changes by less than 1%.
