As a noninvasive imaging meathod, optical coherence tomography system has been extensively studied because it has some advantage such as imaging of high resolution, low cost, and compace size configuration. The optical power of the sample signal reflected from an object is usually very small in optical coherence tomography(OCT) due to absorption and scattering in a sample material. Furthermore, there happens a serious loss of sample signal power in a fiber coupler because it does not transfer to a photodetector but return to the optical source. In order to improve the SNR of OCT system, basic Michelson and Mach-Zehnder interferometer types were configured then, we compared simulation with measurement of reference sample Therefore, an On in configuration of Math-Zehnder interferometer was demonstrated in order to improve the signal to noise ratio

We fabricated (110) silicon hard master by using anisotropic wet etching for embossing. The etching chemical for the silicon wafer was a TMAH $25\%$ solution. The anisotropic wet etching produces a smooth sidewall surface and the surface roughness of the fabricated master is about 3 nm. After spin coating an organic-inorganic sol-gel hybrid material on a silicon substrate, we employed hot embossing technique operated at a low pressure and temperature to form patterns on the silicon substrate by using the fabricated master. We successfully fabricated the multi-mode planar optical waveguides showing low propagation loss of 0.4 dB/cm. The surface roughness of embossed patterns was uniform for more than 10 times of the embossing processes with a single hydrophobic surface treatment of the silicon hard master.

We fabricated Ag ion exchange glass waveguide. Generally, ion-exchange glass waveguide. are suitable for passive integrated optical components such as directional and star couplers. Its advantages include low loss, ease of fabrication, and low material cost. So, we faricated Ag ion-exchange glass waveguides in AgNO$_3$ melt solution from 2 mole %. And we used Sodalime glass as a substrate in the fabrication process. As the results, we observed multivalent ion-exchange in a typical sodalime glass. Diffusion coefficient and depth are predicted by actual experimental data of Stewart. The exchange rate in silver-ion-exchanged waveguides are compared to the exchange time of waveguide fabrication.

Surveillance systems play a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and security of various environments, including public spaces, critical infrastructure, and private properties. However, detecting abnormal human behavior in lowlight conditions is a critical yet challenging task due to the inherent limitations of visual data acquisition in such scenarios. This paper introduces a spatiotemporal framework designed to address the unique challenges posed by low-light environments, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of human abnormality detection in surveillance camera systems. We proposed the pre-processing using lightweight exposure correction, patched frames pose estimation, and optical flow to extract the human behavior flow through t-seconds of frames. After that, we train the estimated-action-flow into autoencoder for abnormal behavior classification to get normal loss as metrics decision for normal/abnormal behavior.

In order to prevent heat loss that occurs through the glass, low-emissivity (Low-E) coating methods with good insulating properties and high transmittance were used. InGaZnO/Ag/InGaZnO (IGZO/Ag/IGZO) multilayer thin films have been deposited on XG glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. Depending on the different thickness of Ag in multilayer films, the structural and optical properties of Low-E multilayer films were analyzed. By XRD analysis results, the multilayer thin films were observed to be amorphous structure regardless of Ag thickness. According to the AFM results, surface morphology of the multilayer films was observed and compared. Using UV-VIS spectroscopy, low emissivity property has been observed clearly with the transmittance of higher than 85% at visible range and lower than 30% at IR range.

This study has been performed to investigate into some effects of the power density and traverse speed of laser beam on the optical microstructure, hardness and wear characteristics of medium carbon low alloy steel treated by laser surface hardening technique. The results obtained from the experiment are summarized as follows : (1) Optical micrograph has shown that finer lath martensite is formed and the amount of undissolved complex carbides increases as the traverse speed increases under the condition of a given power density, whereas the coarsening of lath martensite and the reduction of undissolved complex carbides occur with increasing the power density at a given traverse speed. (2) Hardness measurements have revealed that as the traverse speed increases, hardness values of outermost surface layer more of less decrease under low power densities, but are uniformly distributed under high power densities, also showing that they are uniformly distributed at low traverse speeds and more or less decrease at high traverse speeds with increasing the power density. (3) The effective case depth has been found to decrease from 0.26 mm to 0.17 mm with increasing the traverse speed from 1.5 m/min to 3.0 m/min at a given power density of $25.48{\times}10^3w/cm^2$ and to increase from 0.20 mm to 0.36 mm with increasing the power density from $19.11{\times}10^3w/cm^2$ to $38.22{\times}10^3w/cm^2$ at a given traverse speed of 2.0 m/min. (4) Wear test has exhibited that the amount of weight loss of laser surface hardened specimen with respect to sliding distance at a given load increases with increasing traverse speed at a given power density and decreses with increasing power density at a given traverse speed.

As a noninvasive imaging method, optical coherence tomography system has been extensively studied because it has some advantages such as imaging of high resolution, low cost, and compact size configuration. In order to improve the SNR of OCT system, two types of interferometers were configured and then, we compared simulation with measurement of reference sample. In the OCT system is configured with Michelson interferometer, the contrast of cross-sectional image is reduced with low SNR detection which is due to loss of feedback interference signal from light source part. Also, in order to image measured data with real time, image processing program is constructed. From results of simulation, it is confirmed that improved Michelson interferometer is improved about 10[dB] with a 50 : 50 fiber coupler. And from the measurement of reference sample, about 5[dB] is improved with a 50 : 50 fiber coupler. It is confirmed that the OCT system is configured with the improved Michelson interferometer which has a good distinctive cross-sectional image due to higher contrast.

To compensate the nonlinearity of electroabsorption modulator(EAM) resulting from its near exponential transfer function, a semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA) that has a log transfer function is used. Since the transfer function of SOA is inverse to that of EAM, the intermodulation distortion(IMD) of EAM can be reduced by cascading SOA to EAM. Also, the RF gain can be increased by the optical gain of SOA. For these reasons, spurious free dynamic range(SFDR) of EAM is enhanced by connecting SOA to EAM in series and operating in gain salutation region. To improve the nonlinearity compensation of EAM, the increased gain of SOA is required and the slope of gain saturation, the ratio of gain to input SOA power, needs to be steep. However, signal spontaneous beat noise that is the dominant system noise increases in proportion to the gain such that the SFDR of EAM is reduced. The higher the gain of SOA is, the more ASE is increased. Thus the noise level of system is increased and the following SFDR of EAM is decreased. The slope of gain saturation region and ASE of have trade-off relation and the optimization is achieved at 8㏈ optical gain. 9㏈ enhancement of SFDR of EAM is obtained. This scheme is easy to embody the linear EAM and the integration with three components (DFB-LD, EAM and SOA) offers many merits, such as low insertion loss, low chirping and low polarization sensitivity.

The issues that influence the packaging of high-speed LiNbO$_{3}$ modulators are discussed, and packaging approaches that result in only minor degradation of the modulator's RF performance are described. The primary problems dealt in this paper, associated with high-speed device packaging, are fallen into the following five categories: die features, pigtailing, suppression of RF package resonance, RF launcher approach, termination approach. By considering factors to influence the modulator performance in packaging, a LiNbO$_{3}$ intensity modulator was fabricated and packaged to have S21 better than -3㏈ upto 10㎓ and S11 below -l5㏈ upto 18㎓.
