The polarization-selective beam splitter grating can be widely used in numerous optical information processing systems. In this paper, to design a high-efficiency plasma polarization beam splitter (PBS), the structure composed of an Ag metal layer in Littrow mounting is implemented. To achieve high diffraction efficiency in the transmitted 0th-order TE polarization and the reflected 0th-order TM polarization, the grating depth and grating ratio of presented PBS is optimized by using rigorous Modal Transmission-Line Theory. From the optimized results, PBS has advantages of wide band properties for incident wavelength and angle, and the efficiency is higher than 95% for both TE and TM polarization. Therefore, this highly efficient PBS wideband grating with high extinction ratio can be used as an excellent optical diffraction device.

The polarization and strain behavior of multilayer ceramic actuators fabricated by tape casting using a PNN-PZT ceramics were investigated in association with electrode size and internal layer number. Spontaneous polarization and strain decreased with increasing electrode size. In addition, the increase of internal layer number brought reduced spontaneous polarization and increased the field-induced strain. Because the actuators structure is designed to stack ceramic layer and electrode layer alternatively, the ceramic-electrode interfaces may act as a resistance to motion of domain wall. To analyze the effect of ceramic-electrode interface, the diffraction intensity ratio of (002) to (200) planes was calculated from X-ray diffraction patterns of samples subjected to a voltage of 200 V. The diffraction intensity ratio of (002) to (200) planes was decreased with increasing electrode size and internal layer number. The diffraction intensity ratio and straining behavior analyses indicate that the Polarization and strain were affected by the amount of 90°domain decreasing with increasing electrode size and internal layer number. Consequently, the change of polarization and displacement with respect to electrode size and layer number is likely to be caused by readiness of the domain wall movement around the interface.

In order to increase the signal-to-noise ratio in multi-component seismic data, we developed new polarization filters based on the method of multicomponent complex trace analysis. Unlike the previous polarization filters, the present filters separately compute linear and elliptic components at each time sample using amplitude ratio of horizontal and vertical components of body waves and ellipticity of Rayleigh waves. The polarization filters work ideally even with low S/N data. Application of the filters to both synthetic and real seismic data shows that Rayleigh waves of elliptic motions are effectively eliminated and both P and S waves of linear motions are well separated each other.

The phenomena of higher channel cross polarization discrimination (XPD) is mainly observed for future wireless technologies such as small cell network and massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Therefore, utilization of high XPD is very important and space-polarization division multiple access (SPDMA) with dual-polarized MIMO system could be a suitable solution to high-speed transmission in high XPD environment as well as reduction of array size at base station (BS). By SPDMA with dual-polarized MIMO system, two parallel data signals can be transmitted by both vertically and horizontally polarized antennas to serve different mobile stations (MSs) simultaneously compare to conventional space division multiple access (SDMA) with single-polarized MIMO system. This paper analyzes the performance of SPDMA for maximum ratio transmission (MRT) in time division duplexing (TDD) system by proposed dual-polarized MIMO spatial channel model (SCM) compare to conventional SDMA. Simulation results indicate that how SPDMA utilizes the high XPD as the number of MS increases and SPDMA performs very close to conventional SDMA for same number of antenna elements but half size of the array at BS.

A polarization selective blazed grating employing metal-slit arrays was proposed. Nano-scale metal-slits were applied to the micro-scale blazed grating to give the functionality of polarization selection. Case study was carried out for the proposed structure utilizing numerical FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain method) simulation. Diffraction efficiency of 77.61% and polarization extinction ratio of 8.99 was achieved with arbitrary parameters and diffraction efficiency of 64.22% and polarization extinction ratio of 81.09 was achieved with other parameters to enhance extinction ratio.

Dual-polarization means to use two orthogonal polarizations, namely two independent channels in communication. This can be used to deal with high datarate caused by large amount of observed data in future LEO satellite. However, when two orthogonal polarizations are not perfectly independent to each other in practical, interference is probably raised in each channel, meaning that noise level in passband increases. XPD (Cross-Polarization Discrimination) is the ratio of the signal level at the output of a receiving antenna that is nominally co-polarized to the transmitting antenna to the output of a receiving antenna of the same gain but nominally orthogonal polarized to the transmitting antenna. In this paper, the influence of XPD on the communication between satellite and ground station was analyzed under the assumption that X-Band dual-polarization was applied to KOMPSAT-2 (KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite-2). Through analysis, it was shown that more than 3dB of link margin was still achievable despite of worst axial ratio, 2.5dB, at ground station antenna when axial ratio of satellite antenna was about 0.5dB under 99% of environmental availability.

A novel passive TE/TM polarization mode converter is fabricated by using poled polymer waveguides. The optic axis of the poling induced waveguide is slowly rotated by using a slowly varying structure of poling electrodes. Thus the polarization conversion is achieved as the guided mode propagates through the waveguide. The proposed device is simulated by a full vectorial beam propagation method (VBPM) for anisotropic medium. For the rotation length of 1 mm, the TE polarization of the guided mode is successfully converted to the TM polarization with negligible loss. Based on the simulation results, we fabricated the polarization converter which is tested by using 1.3 $\mu$m laser diode. TE to TM mode conversion is observed with a polarization extinction ratio higher than 30 dB, and the excess loss is less than 1 dB. The polarization conversion is relatively insensitive to wavelength since the device contains no periodic structures. These devices are easier to fabricate than others containing periodic structures.

By incorporating a polarization-diversity loop configuration (PDLC), we have demonstrated inline conversion between transmission and reflection spectra of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) without reconfiguration of the fiber filter structure. The proposed apparatus consists of a polarization beam splitter, an FBG, and two quarter-wave plates (QWP's). The inline conversion operation between transmission and reflection spectra of the FBG was performed by proper adjustment of QWP's within the proposed filter. The band rejection ratio and side-mode suppression ratio in transmission and reflection modes of the fabricated filter were measured as ~17.0[dB] and ~16.4[dB], respectively.

해양 영역에 대한 SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) 자료는 좋은 해상도로 기상조건이나 주야에 상관없이 wind vector를 구할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 해안지역의 scatterometer 자료는 육지의 영향으로 인하여 정확한 자료를 얻을 수 없지만, SAR자료를 이용하면, Scatterometer에 비해 좋은 해상도로 해안지역의 wind vector 추출이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 SAR 자료로부터 풍속을 추출할 수 있는 CMOD_4와 CMOD_IFR2 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 이 알고리즘들은 정확한 sigma-naught 값과, 풍향, 그리고 local incidence angle을 입력변수로 요구한다. CMOD 알고리즘들은 ERS-1/2와 같이 C-band, VV-polarization을 위해 개발된 알고리즘이므로, C-band, HH-polarization을 가진 RADARSAT 자료에 바로 적용할 수가 없다. 이것을 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 두 CMOD 알고리즘을 몇 가지 polarization ratio와 같이 적용하여 보았다. 각 연구지역에 해당하는 자료에는 제주도 주변의 Fine mode 자료, 서해안과 제주도 근해의 Standard mode 자료, 그리고 동해안 지역의 ScanSAR 자료 등이다. 여러 가지 Polarization ratio와 CMOD 알고리즘의 조합, 그리고 2-DFFT로부터 추출된 풍향으로부터 각 연구지역의 풍속은 가까운 기상관측소 및, 부이의 관측값과 비교하였다. 그 결과 Fine mode 자료로부터 추출된 풍속은 실제 관측 값보다 항상 상당히 높게 나타났지만, Standard mode 나 ScanSAR 자료로부터 추출된 풍속은 현지 기상관측소 관측 값과 잘 일치한다.

Turbulent motions perturb magnetic field lines and produce magnetic fluctuations. The perturbations leave imprints of turbulence statistics on magnetic field. Observation of synchrotron radiation is one of the easiest ways to study turbulent magnetic field. First, we obtained the spatial spectrum of synchrotron polarization so that shows how the spectrum is affected by Faraday rotation and how to recover the statistics of underlying turbulence magnetic field. Since polarized synchrotron intensity arising from magnetized turbulence are anisotropic along the direction of mean magnetic field. Secondly, we studied quadrupole ratio to quantitatively describe the degree of anisotropy introduced by magnetic field at multi-wavelengths. This work demonstrated that the spectrum and quadrupole ratio of synchrotron polarization can be very informative tools to get detailed information about the statistical properties of MHD turbulence from radio observations of diffuse synchrotron polarization.
