In this paper, when a refractive index grating and a gain grating were simultaneously present in a DFB laser having a wavelength of 1.55 ㎛, a dielectric film coating was applied so that reflection did not occur on the right mirror surface, so that 𝜌_r=0. In case of δL > 0, the threshold gain and the beam distribution in the longitudinal direction and the radiated power ratio P_l/P_r of the oscillation mode were compared for the cases of the phase of 𝜌_l=π and π/2. If the phase of 𝜌_l=π, in order to obtain a low threshold current and high frequency stability, κL should be greater than 8. In the case of the phase of 𝜌_l= π/2, when κL is larger than 4.0, the oscillation gain starts to be lower than when the phase of 𝜌_l=π. In order to lower the threshold current of a oscillation mode and enhance the frequency stability, κL should be greater than 8.

For demonstrating widely tunable external cavity lasers operating for near-infrared (NIR) wavelength, a flexible polymer waveguide with an imbedded Bragg grating is incorporated. Due to the superior flexibility of the polymer material, the reflection wavelength of the Bragg grating is widely tunable by imposing tensile and compressive strains on the flexible Bragg grating. A third-order Bragg grating is formed on the device for facilitating the fabrication method. With a superluminescent laser diode as a gain medium of ECL, the tunable laser exhibited output power of -3 dBm and a tuning range of 32 nm.

A polymeric waveguide-type wavelength filter based on a Bragg grating has been proposed and fabricated using the simple nanoimpring technique, for the first time to our knowledge. An ultraviolet transparent stamp with the single-mode waveguide pattern incorporating a surface-relief-type Bragg grating was specially designed selective dry-etching process. Using this stamp, the device fabrication was substantially involving just a single-step process of imprint followed by polymer spin-coating. The achieved maximum reflection was higher than 25 dB at the center wavelength of 1569 nm. And the 3-dB bandwidth was 0.8 nm for the device length of 1.5 cm.

In this study, we have made the large holographic surface relief gratings on amorphous chalcogenide $As_{40}$$Ge_{10}$$Se_{15}$$S_{35}$ films by two beam interference using a He-Ne laser(632.8nm) light. The film thickness was about 0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$, we could magnify beam size by using beam expander. We made use $90^{\circ}$ holder which was made of reflection mirror and sample. Formed the surface relief structures were investigated using optical microscope. The diffraction efficiency was obtained by measuring +lst order intensity. In addition we investigated grating formation and diffraction efficiency as a function of polarization states which is linear or circular polarization. The results indicate that the grating was formed by linear polarized beam is better clear than that by circular polarized beam.

We propose an asymmetric sampled grating laser and a multi-wavelength laser array associated with it. Asymmetric sampling periods combined with an index shifter make it possible to use first order reflection for lasing operations. With the structure of our design, we achieved a simple fabrication procedure as well as a high yield without using complex and time-consuming e-beam lithography for multi-period gratings. We analyzed the effect of mirror coating by numerical analysis to improve single mode and power extraction performance. By using high reflection-antireflection coatings, we obtained high power extraction efficiency without degradation of the single mode property. For the multi-wavelength laser array, to gain wavelength control, we varied the sampling periods from one laser to an adjacent laser across the array. With this approach, we showed the feasibility of an array of up to 30 channels with 100 GHz wavelength spacing.

Holographic diffraction gratings which are the core element of the optical instruments such as a spectrophotometer have been fabricated using the photoresist as a recording material. A 488nm line from an argon laser is used in making the gratings. Transmission type surface-relief phase grating and reflection type which is fabsricated by coating the aluminum on the transmission type with thickness 2000\ulcornerare fabricated, the spatical frequency of which are 1200 lines/mm. Diffraction efficiency, scattered light and wave-front aberratin are measured to test the performance of the developed gratings. A marimum diffraction efficiency is given when light is incident at the Bragg angle. Theoretical efficiency is about 80%, but measured efficiency of the transmission type and reflection type is 50% and 45%, respectively.

A tunable filter incorporating an apodized grating with a high-refractive-index polymer layer is demonstrated. In the apodized tunable filter, the reflectivity is decreased compared to that of a uniform grating, because of the gradually decreased grating depth. To increase the reflectivity of the apodized grating, a polymer of high refractive index is adopted for the apodized grating, and then high reflectivity is obtained while maintaining a narrow bandwidth. The apodized tunable filter exhibits a 3-dB bandwidth of 0.51 nm and a 20-dB bandwidth of 1.05 nm, with 98.5% reflection.

The phase-shifting diffraction-grating interferometer proposed in the investigation uses a diffraction grating that performs manifold functions of beam splitting, beam recombination, and phase shifting. The reference and measurement waves generated by means of diffraction have different amplitudes depending on their orders of diffraction, so the interference fringe pattern resulting from the two waves tends to yield poor visibility. To cope with this problem, we select a phase grating of reflection type and attempt to improve the interference visibility with optimization of the groove shape of the grating through electromagnetic analysis.
