The possibility of using a glass block with the composition of sodium borosilicate as starting materials for GRIN glass was examined from the view points of the phase separation of the matrix glass, the effects of leaching and the heating conditions for a porous structure, and the change in the refractive index. Glass specimens with similar compositions were prepared in the form of porous glass using a phase-separation technique. An examination of the heating and leaching conditions and the microstructure dependence of these conditions was made.; Specimens with porous structure were obtained when the heat treatment and leaching conditions were fixed at $540^{\circ}C$ for 30hrs and in a 0.3N$ H_2$$SO_4$ solution at $100^{\circ}C$, respectively. The resultant specimens had some important features on the GRIN glass.; the depth of the gradient and the change in refractive index (Δn) were 4mm and 0.015~0.02, respectively.

The UV laser trimming can be useful to have an accurate performance specification of the passive waveguide devices. In order to measure the change of the refractive index of polymer overclad layer under the irradiation of uv light in a high precision Bragg grating is fabricated on the silica core of planar waveguide and the corresponding transmittance spectrum was analyzed. An effective refractive index change of $4.7x10^{-5}$ was obtained for a straight waveguide when its $60{\mu}m$-thick overclad was irradiated by UV laser pulses of its total fluence 24 $J/cm^2$.

This paper investigates applications of femtosecond lasers for the micromachining of transparent materials and fabrication of optical devices. We show commercial micromachining examples of transparent materials which have been fabricated for various applications. Near infrared femtosecond laser processing is an attractive method to fabricate three-dimensional optical waveguides into various transparent materials. Focused femtosecond laser pulses induce a permanent refractive-index change only near the focal point. We also demonstrate a Y coupler with the splitting ratio of 1:1 written by femtosecond laser pulses into a fused silica glass. The minimum propagation loss of 0.8 ㏈/㎝ awl the refractive-index change of 0.006-0.01 at the wavelength of 1550 ㎚ were achieved by optimization of the laser fluence.

We propose a phase contrast filter using photopolymer, for the phase contrast projection display. The photopolymer has high photosensitivity such that its optically induced refractive index change has a linear dependency on the illuminating light intensity. We implemented a phase contrast projection display using photopolymer as a phase contrast filter. By controlling the refractive index change of the photopolymer, we successfully convert an input phase image into a high contrast intensity image. We also investigated the effect of the photopolymer illumination condition on the quality of the displayed intensity image. As a projector, we achieved 82% phase to intensity conversion efficiency, which implies that the proposed method can potentially have much higher light efficiency than conventional projection display.

본 논문에서는 화학적 감지 및 바이오 감지를 위한 새로운 플랫폼을 제시하였다. 작동 원리는 광 방향성 결합기(DC)와 다중 모드 간섭 결합기 (MMI)의 결합효율과 간섭특성에 기반한다. 또한, 실리콘 기판에 통합할 수 있도록 평면 기술을 사용하여 실현하였다. 먼저, DC와 MMIC의 분산곡선을 설명하고, 도파관 감도를 증가시키기 위한 최적화된 슬롯 광 도파관의 설계 사양을 선택하였다. 다음으로, 감지 분석물의 굴절률 변화에 대한 센서 응답을 수치해석 하였다. 수치해석 결과, 분석 물질의 굴절률 단위 (RIU) 변화당 높은 유효 지수 변화가 얻어졌으며, 그 감도는 DC 및 MMIC 설계 기법을 사용하여 조정할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

The physical and optical properties of polymers with 2-fluoroaniline and 4-fluoroaniline added, which can be used for hydrophilic ophthalmic lenses, were investigated in this study. The UV-blocking properties of 2- and 4-fluoroaniline were also investigated by measuring their UV transmissibility. 2- and 4-Fluoroaniline were used as additives for the basic combination of HEMA, 5% AA, and 1% MMA, and the materials were copolymerized with EGDMA as the cross-linking agent and AIBN as the initiator. The refractive index, water content, optical transmittance, tensile strength, and contact angle were measured to evaluate the physical properties of the produced hydrogel lens. The measured physical properties of the hydrogel contact lens produced with the copolymerized polymer showed a refractive index of 1.425-1.436; a water content of 36.95-44.65%; a visual light transmittance of 66.0-81.0%; a tensile strength of 0.138-0.281 kgf; and a contact angle of $55.02-57.87^{\circ}$. The UV transmissibility was significantly reduced, which indicates that 2-fluoroaniline and 4-fluoroaniline have UV-blocking properties. This study showed that 2- and 4-fluoroaniline are expected to be used as UV-blocking materials in hydrogel ophthalmic lenses whose physical properties, such as their refractive index and water content, do not change.

Currently, As Plasma application is expanded to the industrial and medical industrial, Low temperature plasma characteristics became important. Especially in Medical industrial, Low temperature plasma directly adapted to human skin, so their plasma parameter is important. One of the plasma parameters is electron density, some kinds of method to measuring electron density are Thomson scattering spectroscopy and Millimeter-wave transmission measurement. But most methods is expensive to composed of experiment system. Heterodyne interferometer system is cheap and simple to setting up, So we tried to measuring electron density by Laser heterodyne interferometer. To measuring electron density at atmospheric pressure, we need to obtain the phase shift signal. And we use a heterodyne interferometer. Our guiding laser is Helium-Neon laser which generated 632 nm laser. We set up to chopper which can make a laser signal like a pulse. Chopper can make a 4 kHz chopping. We used Needle jet as Ne plasma sources. Interference pattern is changed by refractive index of electron density. As this refractive index change, phase shift was occurred. Electron density is changed from Townsend discharge's electron bombardment, so we observed phenomena and calculated phase shift. Finally, we measured electron density by refractive index and electron density relationship. The calculated electron density value is approximately 1015~1016 cm-3. And we studied electron density value with voltage.

단일모드 광섬유의 한쪽 측면을 코어 가까이 연마한 광섬유와 그 위에 덮혀진 정합액 사이의 광결합을 이용한 가변 광 감쇠기를 제안하였다. 광섬유모드와 방사모드사이의 결합으로 인하여 정합액의 미세한 굴절률 변화는 큰 광손실의 변화를 발생시킨다. 정합액의 열광학 효과를 이용하여 광손실을 제어하였다. 실리콘 V홈을 이용하여 측면 연마된 광섬유 블록(block)을 제작하였다. 실험결과 $5^{\circ}C$ 정도의 온도변화로서 감쇠량을 최대와 최소사이에서 제어 할 수 있었다. 제작된 소자의 편광의존성 손실은 0.5 dB이었고, 삽입 손실은 0.2dB 이었다.

We developed a highly accurate, yet inexpensive, refractive index (RI)-based soil moisture sensor. To detect the RI, a light guide was set with a light-emitting diode and photodiode. When the air fills the space between the soil particles, most of the incident light is reflected at the interface between the waveguide and the air because of the large RI difference. As the moisture of the soil increases, the macroscopic soil RI increases. This allows incident light to pass through the interface. The intensity of the light reaching the photodiode was simulated according to the change in the soil RI. Using the simulation results, we designed and manufactured a curved glass waveguide. We evaluated the performance of the RI-based soil sensor by comparing it with a commercially available, high-cost and high-performance time-domain reflectometer (TDR). Our sensor was 96% accurate, surpassing the costly TDR sensor.
