A new method is proposed for optimal management of the fabrication and assembly tolerance of optical systems. The practical utility of the method is shown by applying it to a wide-angle anamorphic IR optical system. In this method the wavefront error of an optical system is expressed in terms of Zernike polynomials, and the sensitivity of the expansion coefficients to the variation of design parameters is analyzed. Based on this sensitivity analysis, the optimal tolerances of the fabrication parameters are determined and the best compensators for the assembly process are selected. By using this method, one can accurately predict with good confidence the best possible performance of a completed optical system in practice.

A Design and Fabrication of 565 Mbit/s Optical Fiber Transmission Link We calculated the transfer functions of optical channel components and formulated the optimum transfer function of optical receiver for optical transmission to show a design rule of fiber optical link for digital transmission. And we evaluated various causes of sensitivity degradation to determine the receiver specification. Also we fabricated and demonstrated a 565Mbit/s single mode fiber optic link, 27km, to show the practicality of designed fiber optic link. The output power of the transmitter was above -3dBm, and the sensitivity of the optical receiver was -37.8dBm which is the same value we expected. Also the dynamic range was more than 25dB.

In this paper, designed and simulated Power Splitter (PS) integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) based planar type optical waveguide devices (which is called here a PS-MZI). The PS-MZI optical waveguide sensor was preceded by a Y-junction, which splits the input power between the sensor, and a reference branch, to minimize the effect of optical power variations. The PS-MZI optical waveguide sensor induced changing phases of the incident beam, which had fallen upon the waveguide through computer simulation, according to the small changes in the index of refraction, thus beam intensity was changed. The waveguide were optimized at a wavelength of 1550 nm and fabricated according to the design rule of 0.45 delta%, which is the difference of refractive index between the core and clad. The fabrication of PS-MZI optical waveguide sensor was performed by a conventional planar lightwave circuit (PLC) fabrication process. The PS-MZI optical waveguide that was fabricated to be applied as a biosensor revealed a low insertion loss and a low polarization-dependent loss. After having etched the over-clad at the sensor part in the MZI optical waveguide that was fabricated, Ti deposition was made on the adhesion layer, and then Au thin-film deposition was carried out thereon. In addition, its optical properties were measured by having changed the index of refraction oil at the sensing part of the MZI. To apply the planar type PS-MZI optical waveguide as a biosensor, a detection test for Staphylococcus aureus was conducted according to changes in concentration, having adopted Ti-alkoxide as ligand. The detection result of the S. aureus by the PS-MZI optical waveguide sensor was possible to the level of $10^1$ CFU/ml.

This paper introduces a technology for robust and low maintenance cost sensor network capable to detect accelerations below a micro-g in a wide frequency bandwidth (above 1,000 Hz). Sensor networks with such performance are critical for navigation, seismology, acoustic sensing, and for the health monitoring of civil structures. The approach is based on the fabrication of an array of high sensitivity accelerometers, each utilizing Fabry-Perot cavity with wavelength-dependent reflectivity to allow embedded optical detection and serialization. The unique feature of the approach is that no local power source is required for each individual sensor. Instead one global light source is used, providing an input optical signal which propagates through an optical fiber network from sensor-to-sensor. The information from each sensor is embedded onto the transmitted light as an intrinsic wavelength division multiplexed signal. This optical "rainbow" of data is then assessed providing real-time sensing information from each sensor node in the network. This paper introduces the Fabry-Perot based accelerometer and examines its critical features, including the effects of imperfections and resolution estimates. It then presents serialization techniques for the creation of systems of arrayed sensors and examines the effects of serialization on sensor response. Finally, a fabrication process is proposed to create test structures for the critical components of the device, which are dynamically characterized.

In this paper, a design method to reduce fabrication errors in reflector shape of a test lamp for a flame detector is carried out. Although the test lamp should be operated in parallel with a high-intensity light, it is difficult to fix the small reflector that controls the central light during fabrication. To solve these problems, a small spherical reflector is designed to minimize the performance degradation for a light loss factor of less than 5%, even during tilt and decenter, and a spherical shape is proposed for a small reflector with little effect on the error when designing the optical system.
