The acousto-optical spectrometer as a new type backend of the receiver system for radio astronomical observations is manufactured for radio signal analysis. We studied on the effect of Acousto-Optic and Acousto-Optic devices and designed the optics system. We manufactured the optical mount and the CCD detector for deflected beam and interface card. This acousto-optical spectrometer consisted of a laser, optics, acousto-optic deflector, CCD detector and Interface card. This system use He-Ne laser as a light source and use optics to get parallel beam and to focus the deflected beam. Acousto-optic deflector converts IF signal to ultrasonic wave and deflect the laser beam according to the Bragg deflection. The ultra wide band acousto-optic deflector has 1 GHz bandwidth and a total of 2,048 channel Charge Coupled Device for signal detection. In this study, we discuss the theoretical description on the effect of Acousto-optics, the design of the optics, manufacture of optical mount, CCD detector, interface card and we presented the results of experiment. As a result of measurement, we have 1,000 channels bandwidth from CCD channels.

The flow direction in a glass tube is measured by using a forward scatering dual beam laser Doppler velocimeter with an acousto-optic modulator. We can determine the flow direction by measuring the shifted Doppler frequency which is dependent on the order of modulation of the laser frequency shifting moves only the Doppler signal, enabling complete separation of the Pedestal and Doppler singal.

Position estimation of a sound source based on time difference of arrival at an array of three acousto-optic sensors is introduced. Each sensor consists of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer including a sensing part in one arm that is a piece of fiber surrounded by membrane in order to enhance the acousto-optic effect. Estimation error of a recorded gunshot sound signal was evaluated with the theoretically calculated values for two different locations.

The heat distribution in crystals in a 2-㎛ acousto-optic Q-switched Tm:LuAG laser pumped by pulsed-laser-diode (pulsed-LD) intermittent-pumping technology was analyzed using COMSOL software. The thermal lensing effect of the Tm:LuAG crystal can be mitigated by pulsed-LD intermittent-pumping techniques. An experimental setup using this kind of approach achieved maximum output energy of 8.31 mJ, minimum pulse width of 101.9 ns, and highest peak power of 81.55 kW, reached at a Q-switched repetition rate of 200 Hz. It offers significant improvement of performance of the output laser beam, compared to pulsed-LD double-ended pumping technology at the same repetition rate.

Optimum Hamming apodized acousto-optic 2${\times}$2 add/drop multiplexers, using SiO$_2$ film loaded acoustic waveguide with angular offset to the Ti:LiNbO$_3$ waveguide, were fabricated. The four-port device consists of two input waveguides, a polarization beam splitter (PBS), two polarization conversion/acoustooptic tuning waveguide sections, a second PBS and two output waveguides. Insertion loss <7.1 ㏈ has been obtained and side-lobe of -19 ㏈ for -32 ㎽ RF driving power has been realized. Add/drop performance has been confirmed and a linear tuning rate of 8.1 nm/MHz and a 3 ㏈ spectral width of -1.5 nm were demonstrated.

파장가변 광 필터는 WDM 광전송 시스템에 필요로 하는 핵심 부품중의 하나이다. 특히 LiNbO$_3$의 음향광학효과를 이용하는 AOTF(Acousto-Optic Tunable Filter)는 150nm 이상의 파장 가변 범위, 1.5nm 이하의 파장 통과대역폭, 수 $\mu\textrm{s}$ 정도의 비교적 빠른 스위칭 속도, 그리고 여러 파장 채널을 동시에 선택할 수 있는 장점들을 보유하고 있음에도 불구하고 표면 음향파(SAW： SurFace Acoustic Wave) 구동에 필요한 RF 파워와 부 모드(sidelobe)가 비교적 크다는 단점 때문에 실용화에 많은 제약을 받아왔다.

An integrated optical 2$\times$2 add/drop multiplexer in X-cut, Y-propagating LiNbO$_3$ has been demonstrated. The device consists of passive polarization splitters and acousto-optical mode converters with weighted coupling utilizing tapered acoustical directional couplers; their specific design and properties are discussed. The insertion loss has been measured to be about -8.16 ㏈ and -8.6 ㏈ for TE and TM polarizations, respectively. The device shows a 3 ㏈ bandwidth of 2.3 nm, a tuning rate 8.34 nm/MHz around λ = 1554 nm, and a sidelobe suppression of about 14.5 ㏈. Optimum operation is achieved with a RF drive power of about 43 ㎽. Multi-wavelength operation has been demonstrated.

주파수 안정화 레이저 광원은 10-6 이상의 상대 불확도가 필요한 간섭계에서 널리 쓰이고 있으며 특히 변위 측정 시스템에서는 반드시 쓰이고 있다. 상용화된 많은 변위 측정 시스템은 신호 대 잡음비가 우수하고 광학계의 정렬이 더 쉬운 헤테로다인 방식을 채택하고 있으며 이를 위해서 서로 수직 선형 편광인 다른 주파수의 광을 내보내는 광원이 필요하다. 현재 헤테로다인 변위 측정 시스템에 쓰이고 있는 광원은 이중 주파수 광원을 만드는 방식에 따라 지만 효과(Zeeman effect)를 이용한 지만 레이저(HP사)와 음향-광 변조기(Acousto-optic modulator)를 이용한 이중 주파수 레이저(Zy해사)가 있다.
