  • Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon of different characteristics were formed to determine their optical constants in the visible wavelength range using a periodic square wave current between low and high current densities. The surface and cross-sectional SEM images of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon were obtained using a cold field emission scanning electron microscope. The surface image of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon indicates that the distributions of pores are even. The cross-sectional image illustrates that the multilayer of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibits a depth of few microns and applying of square current density during the etching process results two distinct refractive indices in the contrast. Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibited a porosity depth profile that related directly to the current-time profile used in etch. Its free-standing film was obtained by applying an electro-polishing current.

  • Because of rapid technological advancements, increased data rate support has become the key criterion for future communication medium selection. Multimode optical fibers and multicore optical fibers are well matched to high data rate throughput requirements because of their tendency to support multiple modes through one core at a time, which results in higher data rates. Using the numerical mode solver OptiFiber, we have designed a concentric core fiber by investigating certain design parameters, namely core diameter (µm), wavelength (nm), and refractive index profile, and as a result, the number of channels, material losses, bending losses, polarization mode dispersion, and the effective nonlinear refractive index have been determined. Space division multiplexing is a promising future technology that uses few-mode fibers in parallel to form a multicore fiber. The experimental tests are conducted using the standard second window wavelength of 1,550 nm and simulated results are presented.

  • 대표적인 이차 비선형 광학 물질인 곁가지형 NPP(N-(4-nitrophenyI)-(L)-prolinol) 고분자 박막을 스핀코팅으로 제작하였다. 위상변조방식의 분광타원해석기를 사용하여 코로나 특성배향법으로 온도와 전기장을 변화시켜가며 실시간으로 타원해석 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 광투과영역에서의 타원해석상수를 모델링분석하여 박막의 두께를 구하였고, 광합수영역에서는 타원해석상수의 역방계산을 통해 굴절율과 소광계수를 구하였다. 분광광도계를 사용하여 배향 전후 각각의 상태에 따른 광 투과율 스펙트럼을 측정한 후 이를 되먹임 관계식에 적용하여 구한 소광계수가 분광타원해석법으로 결정한 결과와 일치함을 확인하였다. 또한 두께가 비교적 얇은 시료의 타원해석 스펙트럼을 코로나배향 전후에 걸쳐 분석한 후 시료 면에 수직한 수직 복소굴절율과 시료 면에 평행한 수평 복소굴절율을 각각 결정하였다. 이 수직과 복소굴절율을 기준데이터로 사용하고 모델링 과정을 적용하여 배향의 각 단계별로 유효 수직조성비를 결정하여 두꺼운 고분자 박막의 배향된 정도를 정량화하는 분석모델을 제시하였다.

  • NaEr(WO$_4$)$_2$ is a new laser material. The planar optical waveguide was formed in NaEr(WO$_4$)$_2$ crystal by 2.6 MeV He$^{+}$ ion implantation at doses of 1.0-1.5 $\times$ 10$^{16}$ ions/cm$^2$ at room temperature. The effective refractive indices of the dark modes were measured using the prism coupling method. foul n modes and five TM modes were observed in the waveguide. The refractive index profiles were analyzed using the reflectivity calculation method (RCM). The influence of heat treatment at moderate temperature on the refractive index profiles of the waveguide was also investigated. We used the TRIM'98 (Transport of ton in Matter) code to simulate the damage profile in the NaEr(WO$_4$) crystal by 2.6 MeV He$^{+}$ion implantation which is helpful for a better understanding of the waveguide formation.ion.

  • An intermodal switch based on optically-induced (through optical Kerr effect) periodic coupling in a two-mode waveguide is described and demonstrated. A high power pump beam injected into the two modes of the waveguide produced a periodic modulation of the refractive index profile with a period of modal beat length. this causes an intermodal coupling of the prove beam. The operating principle was successfully demonstrated in an elliptical core two-mode fiber with a counter-propagating pump-probe scheme.

  • The heterodyne He-Ne laser interferometer is the most widely used sensing unit to measure the position error. It measures the positioning error from the displacement of a moving reflector in terms of the wave length. But, the wave length is affected by the variation of atmospheric temperature. Temperature variation of 1$^\circ C$ results in the measuring error of 1ppm. In this paper, for measuring more accurately the position error of the ultra precision stage, the refractive index compensation method is introduced. The wave length of the laser interferometer is compensated using the simultaneously measured room temperature variations in the method. In order to investigate the limit of compensation, the stationary test against two fixed reflectors mounted on the zerodur$\circledR$ plate is performed firstly. From the experiment, it is confirmed that the measuring error of the laser interferometer can be improved from 0.34${\mu}m$ to 0.11${\mu}m$ by the application of the method. Secondly, for the verification of the compensating effect, it is applied to estimate the positioning accuracy of an ultra precision aerostatic stage. Two times of the refractive index compensation are performed to acquire the positioning error of the stage from the initially measured data, that is, to the initially measured positioning error and to the measured positioning error profile after the NC compensation. Although the positioning error of an aerostatic stage cannot be clarified perfectly, it is known that by the compensation method, the measuring error by the laser interferometer can be improved to within 0.1${\mu}m$.

  • A double diffusion technique is developed to enhance the effective mode index of optical waveguides in $LiTaO_3$. It consists of Zn diffusion from the vapor phase at relatively low temperatures (750->$800^{\circ}C$), into waveguides initially produced by Ti indiffusion at higher temperature (1150->$1200^{\circ}C$). Both X- and Z-cut substrates are investigated. A model that combines profiles of both diffusion is formulated to calculate the expected effective index values for planar waveguides. Good agreement is found between experimental results and model predictions which assume that the initial Ti profile is not affected by the lower temperature Zn diffusion. Effective index enhancements as high as 0.005 and 0.003 are obtained by this method for the fundamental extraordinary and ordinary modes, respectively.
