In this paper, we describe the fabrication process and the characteristics of polarization maintaining photonic crystal fibers (PM-PCFs). The PM-PCF is fabricated by stack-and-draw method, i.e., stacking silica capillary tubes (making a PM-PCF preform) and drawing to optical fiber. Firstly, a PM-PCF preform is formed by stacking two kinds of capillary tubes around a solid silica rod and jacketing these stacked tubes with an outer silica tube (out-jacket tube). Later, the desired preform is drawn to a fiber in a high temperature drawing tower. We also compare the polarization properties such as polarization dependent loss, birefringence, and differential group delay of the fabricated PM-PCF with those of the conventional PANDA PM fiber.

단일모드 광섬유(SMF)와 포토닉 밴드갭 광섬유(PBGF), SMF와 고비선형 광자결정 광섬유(NL-PCF)의 저손실 융착접속을 위한 방법을 제안하였다. SMF와 PBGF를 융착접속할 경우 PBGF의 공기구멍 붕괴현상에 의한 손실이 가장 큰 영향을 미치므로 PBGF의 공기구멍을 유지시키기 위해서 광섬유 융착접속기를 최적화하여 접속손실을 1.22 dB이하로 줄였다. SMF와 NL-PCF의 융착접속시에는 Ultra High Numerical Aperture(UHNA)광섬유를 두 광섬유 사이에 삽입하여 융착접속하는 방법을 적용하여 평균 2.59 dB이하로 접속손실을 줄였다.

We review the research on specialty fiber couplers with emphasis placed on the characteristics that make them attractive for biomedical imaging, optical communications, and sensing applications. The fabrication of fiber couplers has been carried out with, in addition to conventional single mode fiber, various specialty fibers such as photonic crystal fiber, double clad fiber, and hole-assisted fiber with a Ge-doped core. For the fiber coupler fabrication, the side polishing and the fused biconical tapered methods have been developed. These specialty fiber couplers have been applied to optical coherence tomography, fluorescence spectroscopy, fiber sensors, and optical communication systems. This review aims to provide a detailed statement on the recent progress and novel applications of specialty fiber couplers.

A novel slotted-core hexagonal photonic crystal fiber (PCF) for terahertz (THz) wave guiding is proposed in this paper. A trade-off managed between effective material loss (EML) and birefringence for efficient guidance of THz waves is illustrated in this article. The rectangular slot shaped air-holes break the symmetry of the porous-core which offers ultra-high birefringence of $8.8{\times}10^{-2}$. The proposed structure offers low bending loss of $1.07{\times}10^{-34}cm^{-1}$ and extremely low effective material loss (EML) of $0.035cm^{-1}$ at an operating frequency of 1.0 THz. In addition other guiding properties such as power fraction, dispersion and confinement loss are also discussed. The proposed THz waveguide can be effectively used for convenient transmission of THz waves.

A novel porous-core hexagonal lattice photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is designed and analyzed for efficient terahertz (THz) wave propagation. The finite element method based Comsol v4.2 software is used for numerical analysis of the proposed fiber. A perfectly matched layer boundary condition is used to characterize the guiding properties. Rectangular air-holes are used inside the core to introduce asymmetry for attaining high birefringence. By intentionally rotating the rectangular air holes of porous core structure, an ultrahigh birefringence of 0.045 and low effective material loss of $0.086cm^{-1}$ can be obtained at the operating frequency of 0.85 THz. Moreover, single-mode properties, power fraction in air core and confinement loss of the proposed PCF are also analyzed. This is expected to be useful for wideband imaging and telecom applications.

불균일 형태의 광 테이퍼 도파관은 단일 모드 광섬유나 광결정 도파관과 집적되어 고효율 모드 커플링을 위한 소자로 널리 사용되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 특성을 나타내는 광 테이퍼 도파관을 사용하여 화학적 감지 및 바이오 감지를 위한 새로운 플랫폼을 제시하였다. 작동 원리는 광 방향성 결합기 (DC)와 다중 모드 간섭 결합기 (MMIC)의 결합효율과 간섭특성에 기반한다. 먼저, DC와 MMIC의 테이퍼 섹션에 대한 곡률 특성을 설명하고, 도파관 감도를 증가시키기 위한 최적화된 테이퍼 도파관의 설계 사양을 선택하였다. 다음으로, 감지 분석물의 굴절률 변화에 대한 센서 응답을 수치해석 하였다. 수치해석 결과, 결합기의 길이가 증가함에 따라 분석 물질의 굴절률 단위 (RIU) 변화 당 유효지수가 증가하였으며, 그 감도는 테이퍼 DC 및 MMIC 설계 기법을 사용하여 조정할 수 있음을 보여주었다.
