  • We have proposed a tunable optical ADM using a fiber-optic transversal filter which is composed of fiber couplers and metal-film coated fiber-optic tapped delay-lines with a flat spectral response in abroad range of wavelength. Simulation results show that the optical loss at the DROP and PASS wavelengths of the OADM is negligible and the wavelength tunability is 0.78${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/ps for the unit time delay of 2 ps. In order to investigate the effects of wavelength drift of the imput optical signal on the OADM the loss at the DROP port and the crosstalks to the other ports have been calculated. The maximum bit rates have been calculated at 46.26 Gb/s for the input Gaussian pulse width of 10 ps.

  • The wavelength converter is considered to be a key element of future dense WDM optical networks. It enables wavelength reuse and resolves contention problem. Moreover, the tunability of the wavelength converter enhance the flexibility of network systems by facilitating reconfigurable dynamic wavelength routing. In order to achieve optically tunable wavelength conversion, we recently proposed and experimentally demonstrated wavelength conversion and tuning based on cascaded sum and difference frequency generation in a Ti:PPLN channel waveguide.

  • Graphene is expected to have a significant impact in various fields in the foreseeable future. For example, graphene is considered to be a promising candidate to replace indium tin oxide (ITO) as transparent conductive electrodes in optoelectronics applications. We report the tunability of the wavelength of localized surface plasmon resonance by varying the distance between graphene and Au nanoparticles [1]. It is estimated that every nanometer of change in the distance between graphene and the nanoparticles corresponds to a resonance wavelength shift of ~12 nm. The nanoparticle-graphene separation changes the coupling strength of the electromagnetic field of the excited plasmons in the nanoparticles and the antiparallel image dipoles in graphene. We also show a hysteresis in the conductance and capacitance can serve as a platform for graphene memory devices. We report the hysteresis in capacitance-voltage measurements on top gated bilayer graphene which provide a direct experimental evidence of the existence of charge traps as the cause for the hysteresis [2]. By applying a back gate bias to tune the Fermi level, an opposite sequence of switching with the different charge carriers, holes and electrons, is found [3]. The charging and discharging effect is proposed to explain this ambipolar bistable hysteretic switching.

  • This paper proposes a tunable combline bandpass filter with high selectivity, constant bandwidth, and good stopband performances. A filter with these characteristics is obtained by applying cross-coupling to the conventional combline bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators(SIRs). For high selectivity and constant bandwidth, cross-coupling is utilized and the SIR configuration is used for enhanced stopband performances. The proposed combline tunable bandpass filter with 5% of fractional bandwidth at 1.6 GHz was fabricated and tested. The measured results showed 11.6% tunability with constant bandwidth, high selectivity and enhanced stopband characteristics.

  • $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thick films were prepared by tape casting method using $BaTiO_3$ and $SrTiO_3$ powder slurry in order to investigate dielectric properties and low temperature sintering. Sintering density was $5.7\;g/cm^3$ and the BST sample exhibited the maximum dielectric constant, tunability at temperatures near phase transition point. The dielectric constant was increased and curie temperature was shifted to higher temperature with increasing of annealing temperature.

  • A magnetic-field tunable 2.4 GHz microwave bandpass filter having insertion loss < -5dB on an FR4 substrate with the flaky magnetic material was designed and characterized. The tunability in the designed bandpass filter was achieved by adhering soft magnetic materials on top of the device. This soft magnetic material can be composed of ferromagnetic substance or ferrimagnetic substance. The performance of the designed bandpass filter under its influence is investigated. The frequency offset ratio changes over 30 %. There is over 20 % change in the center frequency towards the lower frequency region due to this application. These magnetic material layers achieved the center frequency shift and bandwidth extension without actually changing the original structure of the device.

  • We successfully demonstrated a stabilized fiber-optic Mach­Zehnder interferometer filter with continuous tunability. The tunable scheme was achieved with fine wavelength control of an 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ tunable laser diode used as a stabilization light source. The transmission wavelength of the tunable filter was shifted linearly with respect to the wavelength change of the stabilization light source.

  • Two kinds of magnetic fluids with different volume fractions are symmetrically filled into the W0.9 photonic crystal waveguide structure. The 2D plane-wave expansion method is used to investigate the slow light properties numerically. The constant group index criterion is employed to evaluate the slow light performance. The wavelength bandwidth ${\Delta}{\lambda}$ centering at ${\lambda}_0=1550nm$ varies from 32.4 to 44.2 nm when the magnetic field factor ${\alpha}_{\parallel}$ changes from 0 to 1. And the corresponding normalized delay bandwidth product can be tuned from 0.221 to 0.258. For comparison and optimization, two infiltration cases are investigated and the more advantageous infiltration scheme is found.

  • The transmission spectra, the wavelength tunability. and the polarization characteristics of mechanically induced long-period fiber gratings (LPFG's) are investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The transmission and mode coupling characteristics of the fabricated LPFG's agree well with the theoretical results. The resonant wavelengths at which the mode coupling occurs can be tuned over 180 nm and the peak wavelengths for of oethogonally polarized lights are split by -9 nm.
