We Propose a novel structure add/drop multiplexer based on an all-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer and fiber Bragg grating. In this structure, wavelength separation is achieved by adjusting the amount of the phase shift in the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The proposed add/drop multiplexer drops a part of signal at a specific wavelength and transmit the remnant of the signal to the different node separated wavelength in WDM network.

렌즈와 거울의 형상을 정밀하게 측정하고 평가하는 광학시험에 많은 형태의 광간섭계가 개발되고 사용되어왔다. 그 중, 회절격자를 광선분할기로 사용하는 광간섭계들을 통칭하여 회절격자 간섭계라 부른다. 회절격자 간섭계는 별개의 광학표면을 사용하지 않고 회절격자에서 회절된 파면을 직접 기준파면으로 사용할 수 있으므로, 격자의 형태, 주기를 선정하여 기준파면과 측정파면을 원하는 방향으로 재생하여 다양한 형태의 간섭계를 만들 수 있다.(중략)

Terahertz (THz) wave generation from bulk and periodically poled $LiTaO_3$ (PPLT) with a Cherenkov phase matching scheme is numerically investigated. It is shown that by using the crystal birefringence of bulk $LiTaO_3$ and a grating vector of PPLT, THz waves can be efficiently generated by difference frequency generation (DFG) with a Cherenkov phase matching scheme. The frequency tuning characteristics of the THz wave via varying wavelength of difference frequency waves, phase matching angle, poling period of PPLT and working temperature are theoretically analyzed. The parametric gain coefficient in the low-loss limit and the absorption coefficient of the THz wave during the DFG process in the vicinity of polariton resonances are numerically analyzed. A THz wave can be efficiently generated by utilizing the giant second order nonlinearities of $LiTaO_3$ in the vicinity of polariton resonances.

A novel fiber optic sensor is demonstrated using a FBG in PM(Polarization-Maintaining) fiber. Gratings have been written in a Bow-Tie type fiber using the phase mask. The operation of the sensor simply involves monitoring back-reflected Bragg wavelengths from the grating. Since PM fiber has two principal semi-axes with two indices of refraction, two Bragg wavelengths were observed. We have observed the position of Bragg wavelengths for PM FBG shifted simultaneously by either applying the longitudinal strain or temperature change. The wavelength sensitivity of 1.2pm/$\mu$$\varepsilon$ about a longitudinal strain and the wavelength sensitivity of 11.4pm/$^{\circ}C$ about a temperature have been experimentally achieved. The wavelength sensitivity of both longitudinal strain and temperature are approximately same with the reported values for the single mode FBG. On the other hand, the change of separation between Bragg wavelengths was observed by the applying transverse stress. We observed that the separation between two Bragg wavelengths is proportional to the applied transverse stress. The wavelength sensitivity of 14.6 pm/N about a transverse stress has been achieved. We have demonstrated PM FBG sensors can measure the transverse stress independently from the effects of temperature.

In this study, we investigated the optical properties of sub-wavelength a-Si thin film transmission gratings, especially the polarization effect, the phase difference and the birefringence by using linearly polarized He-Ne laser beam (632.8nm). The a-Si transmission grating of the thickness $of < 0.1 \mum$ with four-type period($\Lambda = 0.4 \mum and 0.6 \mum$ for sub-wavelength and $\Lambda = 1.0 \mum and 1.4 \mum$ for above-wavelength) on quartz substrates have been fabricated using 50 KeV Ga+ Focused-Ion-Beam(FIB) Milling and $CF_4$Reactive-Ion-Etching(RIE) method. Finally, we obtained the trating array of a-Si thin film with a period $0.4 \mum, 0.6 \mum, 1.0 \mum, 1.4 \mum$ which have nearly equal finger spacing and width, sucessfully. Especially, for gratings with $\Lambda = 0.6 \mum(linewidth=0.25 \mum, linespace=0.35\mum), the \etamax at \theta_в=17.0^{\circ}$ is estimated to be 96%. As the results, we believe that the sub-wavelength grating arrayed a-Si thin film has the applicability as the optical device and components.

In this paper, the transverse strain was measured using polarization maintaining fiber Bragg grating(PMFBG) sensor. PMFBG sensor was fabricated using phase mask and Excidmer laser. The reflected wavelength of PMFBG sensor had dual peaks due to intrinsic birefringence. To find the polarization axes, peak sensitivity was measured under compression test. The signal characteristics of PMFBG sensor were also examined in embedding condition. The embedded PMFBG sensor in epoxy block was loaded for the transverse strain measurement, The wavelength-swept fiber laser(WSFL) was used to construct the PMFBG sensor system. Experiments showed that the PMFBG sensor could successfully measure the transverse strain.
