  • We proposed a structure for a 1.55 ㎛ strained separate confinement heterostructure (SCH) multi- quantum well (MQW) superluminescent diode (SLD), having a tapered active region. SLD was fabricated through a two-step procedure: the first step being metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and the second-step being liquid phase epitaxy (LPE). We used a 15 laterally tilted stripe and window region to suppress the lasing action of the SLD. The performance of the SLD showed output power of 11 mW with no lasing under 200 mA pulse driving. The full-width at half-maximum was 42 nm at 200 mA, 25℃.

  • Semiconductor laser diode has a reflective facet in a both-ends side fundamentally. Laser performance for improving, Anti-Reflection and High-reflection coating on the facet of semiconductor laser diode. To prevent internal feedback from both facets for realizing superluminescent diode and reducing the reflection-induced intensity noise of laser diode, it's key techniques are AR/HR coatings. In the study AR coating film were manufactured by Ion-Assisted Deposition(IAD) system. Then manufactured coating film measurement electrical properties(L-I-V, Se, Resistor) and Optical properties (wavelength FFP)

  • Superluminescent diodes(SLDs) are the optimum light sources for application in optical measurement systems such as fiber gyroscopes, optical time domain reflectometers, and to short and medium distance optical communication systems. The broadband characteristics of SLDs reduce Rayleigh backscattering noise, polarization noise, and the bias offset due to the nonlinear Kerr effect in fiber gyro systems. In this paper, in order to suppress lasing oscillation, we introduced a laterally tilted SCH(Separate Confinement Heterostructure)-SLD with a window region. An output power of 11mW has been achieved at 200mA injection current at 25$^{\circ}C$. At 120mA, parallel and perpendicular to the junction were 31$^{\circ}$${\times}$38$^{\circ}$.

  • 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 vacuum chamber for a commercial atomic force microscope (AFM) is designed and fabricated. Only minimal modifications were made to an existing microscope in an effort to work in a vacuum environment, while most of the available AFM functionalities were kept intact. The optical alignment needed for proper AFM operations including a SLD (superluminescent diode) and a photodiode can be made externally without breaking the vacuum. A vacuum level of $5{\times}10^{-3}$ torr was achieved with a mechanical pump. An enhancement of the quality factor was observed along with a shift in the resonance frequency of a non-contact-mode cantilever in a vacuum. Topographical data of a calibration sample were also obtained in air and in a low vacuum using the non-contact mode and the results were compared.
