Leakage phenomena of flip-chip structures on common GaAs and alumina main substrates are characterized using the spectral domain approach to reduce the possible chip-to-chip crosstald and transmission resonance. We have found taht the longitudinal section magnetic mode is dominant for the coplanar waveguide leakage andthe leakage can be suppreassed by properly managing the gap height and the main substrate thickness in addition to the dielectric constant. These calculation results will be helpful for designing and flip-chip packagaing of high-frequency integrated circuits.

We propose the concept of incident angle of complex number and analyze planar optical waveguides by applying the concept. The incident angle of complex number is concerned with the modeling of prism-gap-waveguide structures. It is shown that, when optical waveguides are analyzed by use of the transfer matrix method, the proposed concept enable us to find solutions faster and more accurately than ghatak's method which introduces the leaky structure.

We report on the fabrication of two-dimensional Silicon On Insulator (SOI) photonic crystal (PhC) superprism. To optimize the design of 2-D SOI PhC superprism, the photonic band structures (TE-polarization) for triangular lattices and the dispersion surfaces were calculated and analyzed by the plane wave expansion method. Dense 2-D SOI PhC superprism nanostructures with taper input and output waveguide microstructures were successfully fabricated by nanoimprint lithography, followed by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching.

A field ploblem of a grounded dielectric slab covered by a conducting plane with periodecally spaced arbitrary number of slots excited by an aperiodis source is analyzed. The problem is formulated in terms of simultaneous integral equations for unknown electric fields at each slot. A sampling technique is introduced to reduce the system equations to a matrix equation equation involving Green's function matrix. The solution obtained in the form of infinite series is transformed, into a more rapidly convergent one in its final stage. Theoretical results agree closesly with the experimental results.

We report the selective area bandgap tuning of multiple quantum well structures by an impurity free vacancy induced quantum well intermixing technique. A 3dB waveguide directional coupler was fabricated in the disordered section of an intermixed quantum well sample as a demonstration of photonic device applications.

In this paper, we propose a new frequency reconfigurable dual-band antenna. By using an electronically compact eighth-mode substrate-integrated-waveguide(EMSIW) resonator, we have designed a compact antenna, which performs dual-band movement by additionally loading a complementary split ring resonator(CSRR) structure. The EMSIW and CSRR structures are designed to satisfy the bandwidths of 1.575 GHz(GPS) and 2.4 GHz(WLAN), respectively. We load the CSRR with a varactor diode to allow a narrow bandwidth and to enable the resonance frequency to continuously vary from 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz. Thus, we realize a channel selection function that is used in the WLAN standards. Irrespective of how a varactor diode moves, the EMSIW independently resonates so that the antenna maintains a fixed frequency of the GPS bandwidth even at different voltages. Consequently, as the DC bias voltage changes from 11.4 V to 30 V, the resonance frequency of the WLAN bandwidth continuously changes between 2.38 GHz and 2.5 GHz, when the DC bias voltage changes from 11.4 V to 30 V. We observe that the simulated and the measured S-parameter values and radiation patterns are in good agreement with each other.

We demonstrate the operating characteristics(center wavelength, bandwidth, TE/TM polarization, tuning range) of grating-assisted co-directional coupler(GACC) filter fabricated with InGaAsP compound semiconductor. A design of waveguide structure has been focused on the narrow bandwidth characteristics of the filter. Reactive ion etching technique was employed for the uniform waveguide formation. The bandwidths(FWHM) and center wavelengths of the fabricated GACC filter were measured by 1.5 nm and 1530.6 nm for TE polarization and 1.3 nm and 1494.0 nm for TM polarization. This is the one of the narrowest bandwidth at 1530 nm region ever reported. The center wavelength shifted form 1530 nm to 1538 nm when the current of 100 mA was injected at 4.5 mm-long device. Good agreement between the designed and measured operating characteristics for some waveguide structures is demonstrated.

In this paper, waveguide-based power combiner using conventional slotline-to-microstrip transition was proposed at Ka-band. The proposed 2-way and 4-way power combiner consist of waveguide-to-slotline transition, two or four slotline-to-microstrip transitions, and impedance matching networks. Their structures were simulated and optimized by 3-D FEM simulation. The 2-way power combiner showed a very low back-to-back insertion loss of 1.0 dB and return loss better than 15 dB from 25.7 GHz to 29.8 GHz except the resonant frequency. The 2-way power combining approach was extended to 4-way power combining using slotline tee junction. The 4-way power combiner showed the similar performance to that of 2-way power combiner with 2 GHz smaller bandwidth.

A unique optical waveguide structure is proposed to enhance the optical characteristics of alcohol screening sensors. This structure is then simulated. The structure consists of two elliptical waveguides that have a common focus to one side and has an IR source and detector at each of the other focal points of the ellipses. When the angle between the two elliptical waveguides is increased from 30 degrees to 90 degrees, the maximum level of irradiance is greatly decreased, falling from $2.23{\times}10^6 W/m^2$ to $5.74{\times}10^5W/m^2$. However, the diameter of the incident rays is at a minimum of 1.86mm and the total incident flux is less than 10% lower when compared to the structure at $90^{\circ}$. It can be seen from the simulation results that this structure might enhance the sensitivity of an optical gas sensor which has a large absorption wavelength.

We investigated the light reflection from thin films coated on substrates. Using a prism with a high refractive index as the incident medium, the phenomena of the total internal reflection (TIR) of the prism/film/substrate system and the light coupling into the optical waveguide formed by the air/film/substrate system were comprehensively studied and compared. If the refractive index of the thin film is greater than that of the substrate, within the TIR region of the substrate, sharp reflection minima occur at specific angles where the waveguide modes are excited, that can be used to accurately measure the refractive index and thickness of a thin film. On the other hand, if the refractive index of the thin film is smaller than that of the substrate, such waveguide modes do not exist. In this case, although not so distinct as a bulk medium, the TIR effect of the thin film is still observable, accompanied by an interference pattern. In this study we analyzed the overall reflection phenomena occurring from prism/film/substrate structures, to investigate the possibility of measuring the refractive index of a thin film in both cases.
