  • A variable optical attenuator with a bending-sensitive fiber (BSF) that can be used in optical networks is developed. The refractive index profile of the BSF is divided into four regions which are inner core, center dip of inner core, outer core and clad. The 3-dimensional finite difference beam propagation method (3D FD-BPM) is utilized to find the characteristics of the BSF, so the mode profile of the BSF and optical power attenuation according to the bending are investigated, and the equivalent model of the BSF is made. By using this equivalent model of the BSF, the BSF is fabricated, and the refractive index profile of the BSF is measured, which is similar to refractive index profile of the proposed BSF. The fabricated variable optical fiber attenuator (VOFA) consists of the BSF in a rectangular rubber ring with a fixed bend radius (BR) in a steady state. The VOFA using the proposed BSF was able to attenuate the optical power by more than about -38 ㏈ at certain wavelengths (1540∼1560 nm) based on adjusting the mechanical pressure applied to the upper surface of the rectangular rubber ring with the bent BSF. In addition, the proposed VOFA produced an insertion loss of 0.68 ㏈, polarization dependent loss (PDL) of about 0.5 ㏈, and return loss of less than -60 ㏈.

  • We present a dispersive scheme of white-light interferometry that enables not only to perform tomographical measurements of thin-film layers but also to measure a refractive index without mechanical depth scanning. The interferometry is found useful particularly for in-situ 3-D inspection of micro-engineered surfaces such as liquid crystal displays, semi-conductor and MEMS structure, which requires for high-speed implementation of 3-D surface metrology.

  • Permanent structure of photoinduced singlemode waveguide in optical fluoride glasses was demonstrated using the self-channeled plasma filament excited by a femtosecond (110 fs) Ti:sapphire laser ($λ_p$ = 800 nm). The photoinduced refractive index modification in ZBLAN glasses reached a length of approximately 10 - 15 mm from the input surface of the optical glass with the diameters ranging from 5 to 8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ at input intensities more than l.0 ${\times}$ $10^{12}$ W/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The graded refractive index profiles were fabricated to be a symmetric form from the center of an optical fluoride glass and a maximum value of refractive index change (ㅿn) was measured to be l.3${\times}$$10^{-2}$. The beam profile of the output beam transmitted through the modified region showed that the photoinduced refractive index modification produced a permanent structure of singlemode waveguide.

  • The fabrication of internal diffraction gratings with photoinduced refractive index modification in transparent materials was demonstrated using low-density plasma formation excited by a femtosecond (130 fs) Ti: sapphire laser (${\lambda}_p$=800 nm). The refractive index modifications with diameters ranging from $1{\mu}m$ to $3{\mu}m$ were photoinduced after plasma formation occurred upon irradiation with peak intensities of more than $2.0{\times}10^{13}W/cm^2$. The graded refractive index profile was fabricated to be a symmetric around from the center of the point at which low-density plasma occurred.

  • The objective of this paper is to provide experimental data of Er(rare- earth)doped $SiO_2$thin film made by sputtering methods. The deposition rate of silica glass by sputtering method was 55$\AA$/min. In EDD measurements, the average Er concentration in the deposited film was 0.77(wt%). After annealing at $900^{\circ}C$, the Cl concentration decreased from 3.79(wt%) to 1.52(wt%). The refractive indices of the core $n_1$, cladding $n_2$ were 1.458, 1.558 respectively at 632.8 nm. The refractive index difference between core and cladding, $\Delta$n was 0.1. The refractive index profile of core and cladding interface shows step profile. In the study, $SiO_2$ glass films of Si wafer were successfully doped with active erbium. Therefore, this experimental data will be applicable for fabrications of Er doped planar integrated optical device.

  • Optical filters with graded index profiles are designed by applying the fourier transform to a riccati equation which governs the reflection and transmission characteristics of inhomogeneous refractive index distributions. The inhomogeneous refractive index profile of an optical filter with specified target spectrum is obtained through iterations. The spectra response of the inhomogeneous refractive index layers are analyzed by using runge-dutta numerical method to solve the differential euations of the amplitude and the phase of reflection coefficient derived from the riccati equation and the results are in good agreement with the resutls obtained by using matrix method.

  • 폴리머 안경렌즈를 제조할 때 가시광선 영역에서 투과되는 빛을 증가시키고, 안경렌즈 표면에 형성되는 허상을 방지하는 반사방지 기능은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 굴절률 1.56, 1.60 및 1.67을 갖는 안경렌즈를 폴리머 렌즈 모노머 및 이염화 이부틸 주석 촉매제, 알킬 인산 에스터 이형제 등의 혼합물을 인젝션 몰드 방법으로 열중합 공정을 적용하여 제조하였다. 폴리머 안경렌즈 표면에서의 반사방지 효과를 조사하기 위하여 다층 박막 반사방지 코팅 구조(양면 또는 단면 코팅), 3층 박막의 Gaussian gradient-index profile 불연속 근사 반사방지 코팅 구조, 3층 박막의 quarter-wavelength 근사 반사방지코팅 구조 등 다양한 반사방지 코팅 구조를 설계하였고, E-beam 증착 시스템을 이용하여 열중합공정으로 제조된 폴리머 안경렌즈에 각각 코팅하였다. 폴리머 안경렌즈의 광학적 특성은 UV-visible spectrometer로 분석하였다. 반사방지 코팅 층을 구성하는 박막의 굴절률, 표면 거칠기 등의 소재 특성은 Ellipsometer와 원자힘 현미경(AFM)으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 굴절률 1.56의 낮은 굴절률을 갖는 폴리머 안경렌즈에서 가장 효과적인 반사방지 코팅 구조는 다층 박막 반사방지 코팅 구조의 양면코팅이었다. 하지만 굴절률 1.67의 고굴절률 안경렌즈에 대해서는 3층 박막의 Gaussian gradient-index profile 불연속 근사반사방지 코팅 구조의 양면 코팅도 다층박막 반사방지 코팅구조의 양면코팅에 상응하는 반사방지 효과를 나타내었다.
