  • In this paper, a new method is suggested to stabilize the frequency of semiconductor laser diode for heterodyne optical communication systems. In order to stabilize the frequency of semiconductor laser, the method of the injection current controal has been widely used, in which the laser frequency is locked to a F-P interferometer. By adding another servoloop to stabilize the output power of semiconductor laser, we could stabilize the laser frequency and the output power simultaneously and the frequency stability is improved by a factor of fice times.

  • Doppler-free circular polarization spectroscopy in 87Rb Dz line has been carried out by using a diode laser whose linewidth was narrowed by an external cavity, and experimental results were compared with an optical pumping polarization spectroscopy theory. A dispersive spectrum obtained in a weak pump beam was completely fitted to a single cycle optical pumping theory. The laser frequency was locked to a Rb atomic hyperfine transition line without any frequency modulation by using the dispersive curve as an error signal. ignal.

  • The EOTS(Electro Optical Tracking System) must have stabilization performance to provide high-quality images under disturbance environment. In this paper, we present a controller that can minimize the LOS error and has a simple structure. Hence, to evaluate the performance of this controller, analysis in the frequency domain and LOS error measurement are performed. In order to measure the LOS error without a 'rate table' that requires a lot of facility investment, we propose a design method for disturbance model that considers the operating environment of the EOTS. Finally, the performance of the stabilization algorithm is evaluated by the proposed disturbance model.

  • In this paper, the frequency separation locking and interval stabilization of 4-channel DFB-LDs have been demonstrated using a fiber Fabry-Perot filter with an free spectral range of 100GHz. Frequency fluctuation and locking range of each channel were appeared to be within 15MHz and over 12GHz, respectively. Back-reflection curve from the fiber Fabry-Perot filter was used for the extraction of an error signal in order to increase the number of accomodable channels and extinction ratio.

  • The dynamic modulation transfer function (MTF) for image degradation caused by sinusoidal vibration is formulated based on a Bessel function of the first kind. The presented method makes it possible to obtain an analytical MTF expression derived for arbitrary frequency sinusoidal vibration. The error obtained by the use of finite order sum approximations instead of infinite sums is investigated in detail. Dynamic MTF exhibits a stronger random behavior for low frequency vibration than high frequency vibration. The calculated MTFs agree well with the measured MTFs with the slant edge method in imaging experiments. With the proposed formula, allowable amplitudes of any frequency vibration are easily calculated. This is practical for the analysis and design of the line-of-sight stabilization system in the remote sensing camera.

  • We describe a comb-mode resolving spectroscopic technique by direct time-domain phase correction of unstable interferograms obtained from loosely locked two femtosecond lasers. A low-cost continuous wave laser and conventional repetition rate stabilization method were exploited for locking carrier and envelope phase of interferograms, respectively. We intentionally set the servo control at low bandwidth, resulting in severe interferograms' fluctuation to demonstrate the capability of the proposed correction method. The envelope phase of each interferogram was estimated by a quadratic fit of carrier peaks to correct timing fluctuation of interferograms in the time domain. After envelope phase correction on individual interferograms, we successfully demonstrated 1 Hz linewidth of RF comb-mode over 200 GHz optical spectral-bandwidth with 10-times signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) enhancement compared to the spectrum without correction. Besides, the group delay difference between two femtosecond pulses is successfully estimated through a linear slope of phase information.

  • 펨토초 모드록 레이저는 공진기의 왕복시간 $\tau$마다 펨토초 폭을 갖는 펄스를 발생시키고, Fourier 변환에 의해 주파수 공간에서는 일정한 주파수 간격 $\Delta$ = 1/$\tau$을 가지는 불연속 스펙트럼, 즉 광빗 스펙트럼을 갖게 된다(1). 광빗의 간격, 즉 펄스의 반복률, 은 $\Delta$ : v$_{g}$l$_{c}$의 관계식에 의해 그룹속도(v$_{g}$)와 공진기 길이(l$_{c}$)에 의해 결정된다. 광빗의 간격을 고정시키기 위한 가장 일반적인 방법은 공진기 길이를 일정하게 유지하는 것이다.

  • 단원자를 이용한 Cavity-QED 실험등을 위해서는 고분해능 분광학이 필요하다. 레이저 주파수 안정화는 고분해능 분광학을 위한 필수적인 선결 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 다이오드 레이저를 대상으로 전류되먹임 방법에 의해 주파수 안정화를 하였다. 오차 신호를 얻기 위해 공진기를 사용하였는데 공진기는 원자 전이선을 이용한 경우보다 더 높은 신호 대 잡음비를 얻을 수 있다. 일단 공진기에 안정화된 레이저는 주파수 특성을 그대로 유지한 채 AOM이나 EOM 등을 이용하여 필요한 원자 전이선으로 주파수 이동시켜 고분해능 분광에 활용할 수 있다.

  • 간섭계의 광원으로 현재 레이저를 주로 사용하고 있다. 이러한 간섭계용 레이저의 조건은 선폭(linewidth) 이 좁아야 하고, 중심 주파수가 안정화 되어야 한다. 특히 거리용 간섭계의 경우, 주파수 안정화되어 있는 레이저가 사용되어 측정 불확도를 낮춘다. 그러나 점차 다축을 측정하기 위한, 또는 보다 넓은 영역을 측정하기 위해서는 보다 높은 출력의 레이저를 요하고 있다. 그러나 현재의 간섭계용 레이저는 헬륨네온 레이저로서 단일 모드 기준으로 2 mW 이하의 출력을 보이고 있어서 응용 면에 있어서 제약을 받는다. (중략)
