A guided-wave TE to TM mode converter was demonstrated by using of the off-diagonal electrooptic coefficients in LiTaO$_{3}$. The input mode is coupled to the other orthogonal mode by the electrooptically induced off-diagonal polarizability. Compared with LiNbO$_{3}$, LiTaO$_{3}$ provides a smaller birefringence and thus a larger phase match period and larger optical bnadwidth. A novel electrode structure allowed a first-order Bragg-coupling phase matching. TE/TM mode conversion efficiency of 90% at 25 [V] was demonstrated with ${\lambda}$=0.63$\mu$m He-Ne laser.

We fabricated 1 mm-thick periodically-poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystals by using a high-voltage amplifier for standard electric field poling combined with a voltage multiplier. Furthermore, two 1 mm-thick PPLNs were directly bonded to make a 2 mm-thick PPLN. The large aperture allowed broad angular tuning, and a broad spectral range of quasi-phase matched second-harmonic generation can be achieved in a single channel. High-power applications are also expected.

Performance evaluation of inexpensive LCTV to function as a two-dimensional spatial light modulator is performed. Correction of the phase distortion of the device is performed using the substrate of hologram plate and index matching oil. A new method for eliminating electrode grid pattern that incorporates phase conjugation in a BaTiO3 crystal is proposed and experimented.

In this paper, we discussed the trapezoidal antenna model in the microstrip structure for UWB communications in the frequency band of $3.1{\times}10.6GHz$. Through the computer simulations for the difference size of trapezoidal monopole microstrip antenna model, the good impedance matching characteristic of return loss less than -10dB(VSWR<2) in all the band of UWB showed. The optimized antenna of this paper also showed the quasi-isotropic radiation characteristics in the horizontal plane and linear phase characteristic of nondispersive property.

The charge pump in a phase-locked loop is a key block in determining reference spurs of the VCO output signal. To reduce reference spurs, the current mismatch in the charge pump must be minimized. This paper presents a dual compensation method to reduce the current mismatch. The proposed charge pump and PLL were realized in a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process. Measured current matching characteristics were achieved with less than 1.4% difference and with the current variation of 3.8% in the pump current over the charge pump output voltage range of 0.35-1.35V at 1.8V. The reference spur of the PLL based on the proposed charge pump was measured to be -71dBc.

We present cross-correlation frequency-resolved optical gating (XFROG) measurements of supercontinuum pulses generated by using a photonic crystal fiber (PCF), and ultraviolet (UV) pulses generated by frequency doubling of infrared ultra-short pulses. Since supercontinuum pulses have broad spectra, XFROG measurement typically requires using an extremely thin nonlinear crystal which has a thickness of sub-ten microns. Instead of using such a thin crystal, we employed a relatively thick crystal which was mounted on a galvanometer in order to achieve a phase-matching over the whole spectral bandwidth of the supercontinuum pulses by a crystal-dithering technique. Experimental results of the retrieved phase and intensity were in fair agreement with the independently measured data.

For a simple one-dimensional ignition problem a mathematical model is described to investigate the difficulties in numerical simulations. Some computation results are obtained and comparison is made with analytical solution. Discussions are made on topics such as 1) coordinate transformation, 2) gas-phase and solid-phase analysis; (divergence form of the governing system, a finite-volume discretization, implicit time integration, upwind split flux, spatial accuracy improvement are described. Mass, reagent mass, and energy conservations are solved.), and 3) method to determine quantities on the burning surface (matching). Results obtained for small values of the non-dimensional pressure show a steady-combustion and good agreement with the analytical solution. Numerical instability appeared for larger values of the pressure, discussion on the cause of the problem is made. This effort is a part of a study of flame spread phenomena on solid propellant surface.

This paper introduces a new energy function, as maximum a posteriori(MAP) estimate of binocular disparity, that can deal with both random dot stereo-gram(RDS) and natural scenes. The energy function uses phase-magnitude as features to detect only the shift for a pair of corrupted conjugate images. Also we adopted Fleet singularity that effectively detects unstable areas of image plant and thus eliminates in advance error-prone stereo mathcing. The multi-scale concept is applied to the multi laser architecture that can search the solutions systematically from coarse to fine details and thereby avoids drastically the local minima. Using mean field approximation, we obtained a compact representation that is suitable for fast computation. In this manner, the energy function satisfies major natural constraints and requirements for implementing parallel relaxation. As an experiment, the proposed algorithm is applied to RDS and natural stereo images. As a result we will see that it reveals good performance in terms of recognition errors, parallel implementation, and noise characteristics.

Quasi-Phase-Matching(QPM)을 이용한 Optical Parametric Oscillation(OPO)은 높은 효율과 작은 Walk-off 효과를 보인다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 작은 펌프빛의 크기로 인한 빛세기의 증가는 optical damage와 photorefractive effect 야기하고, 이러한 요인으로 안정적인 고출력 연속발진에 있어서는 그 한계가 있으리라고 생각되어진다. 본 연구에서는 주기가 27.7 $mu extrm{m}$인 Periodically poled LiNbO$_3$(PPLN)을 비선형매질로 이용하여 10 kHz의 고반복률을 갖는 다이오드 펌프 Nd：YAG 레이저에서의 Quasi-Phase-Matched Optical Parametric Oscillation의 Signal파의 출력특성 및 안정화에 대하여 조사를 하였다.

Measurement of the nonlinear optical coefficients is not an easy task since it requires complicated experimental setup and analysis. We suggest an easy way to estimate the relative nonlinear optical tensor components by direct measurement of the output powers of the second harmonic generation and spontaneous parametric down conversion experiments. The experiments were done in quasi-phase-matched type-0 as well as type-1 interactions at similar pump wavelengths in a 5% MgO-doped periodically poled $LiNbO_3$ crystal to obtain the ratio of the nonlinear optical tensor components $d_{33}/d_{31}$ in each experiment. The obtained ratios were then compared with the previously ascertained values [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B, 14, 2268-2294 (1997)].
