The angular dependence of polarization of the A-band emission from RbCl:$Pb^{2+}$ is measured at 13.4 K to determine the symmetry axes of the $Pb^{2+}-v^-_c$ dipoles. The results indicate that these centers posess tetragonal symmetry. This implies that $v^-_c$ is situated in the next-nearest-neighbor (nnn) position to the $Pb^{2+}$ ion. The polarization ratio of the A-band emission measured at various temperatures is found to be independent of the temperature. The temperature independence of polarization confirms that, for the ion, the Jahn-Teller effect reduced by strong spin-orbit interaction does not give rise to thermal depolarization.

A multiplex recording and reading technique in photopolymer are presented In order to record the polarization gratings, polarization-sensitive materials, in which linear birefringence is induced by irradiating the polarized light, are necessary. We checked orthogonal and independence of laser. The value of the photoinduced linear polarization had effect on diffraction properties in the holographic gratings. The grating strengths of two polarization are investigated and the relevant parameters for equal diffraction intensity readout are optimized.

Molecular alignment has been postulated as influencing non-Newtonian behavior of liquid lubricants containing various additives. Four blended lubricants, two synthetic and two mineral were analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy. All of the lubricants exhibited polarization changes in their infrared emission spectra at 60$\circ$C under shear. For this work a special mockup journal bearing was constructed to seperate load and shear effects. At a temperature of 100$\circ$C polarization by shear was always reduced, presumably by Browninn motion. This work should be useful in pointing to the shear-sensitive factors. The presence of of a VI improving additive is manifested by the independence of the infrared emissivity with temperature at several wavelengths; a lubricant without a VI improver generally shows a decrease of emissivity at higher temperature.

We show that the extinction ratio is improved using slight asymmetry in two core refractive indices of polarization independent very short vertical directional couplers with the double-sided deep-ridge (DSDR) waveguide structure. The optimum asymmetry with the maximum extinction ratio and the tolerance of the refractive index of core with the extinction ratio larger 1ha]1 30 ㏈ increase as the thickness of inner cladding layer and the two cores decrease due to the increase of the coupling strength between the two cores. Also, the device length and the tolerance of the device length with the extinction ratio larger than 30 ㏈ decrease as the thickness of the inner cladding layer and the two cores decrease due to the increase of the coupling strength between the two cores. We show that polarization independent vertical directional couplers with the DSDR waveguide structure with the device length less than 100 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the extinction ratio larger than 30 ㏈ could be implemented.

Optical power splitters and/or couplers are important components for optical signal distribution between channels both in wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) systems and photonic integrated circuits(PICs). Since polarization is usually not known after propagation in an optical fiber, passive WDM components have to be polarization insensitivity, Compared to alternatives such as directional couplers or Y-junction splitters, splitters based on multimode interference(MMI) have found a growing interest in recent yens because of their desirable characteristics, such as compact size, low excess loss, wide bandwidth, polarization independence, and relaxed fabrication tolerances$^{(1)}$ . These devices have been fabricated in polymers, silica, or III-V semiconductor materials. A1 $\times$ 4 MMI power splitter on InP materials that were suitable for application in the 1.55-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ region$^{(2)}$ . However, the fabrication process of the structure is too complicated and the photolithography tolerance is very tight. Also, a 1 $\times$ 16 InGaAsP/InP MMI power splitter with an excess loss of 2.2dB and a splitting ratio of 1.5dB was demonstrated by using deep etching$^{(3)}$ . The deep etching of the sidewalls through the entire guide layer of the slab waveguide resulted in a number of drawbacks$^{(4)}$ . (omitted)

A broad dual-band terahertz metamaterial filter with sharp out-of-band rejections is designed and demonstrated. The center frequencies of the first and the second bands occur at 0.35 THz and 0.96 THz with 3 dB relative bandwidth of 31% and 17%, respectively. Results are measured using a THz time-domain spectroscopy system that shows agreement with simulations. Physical mechanisms of the broad dual-band resonance are clarified based on transmissions of different structures and surface current density distributions. Influence of structure parameters on the transmission characteristics are discussed. Symmetry of the structure ensures the filter polarization independence at normal incidence. These results supported by the design of the filter could find applications in broad multi-band sensors, terahertz communication systems, and other emerging terahertz technologies.

This paper analyzes and accesses the gain of optically pumped surface-normal MQW optical amplifiers. The proposed amplifiers have the advantage of polarization independence, high coupling efficiency to and from optical fibers, and flexibility of operating wavelength. We analyzed the gain characteristics of 100 - 200-period MQWs and verified the dependence of a strained lattice and selective doping. Theoretical analysis of such MQWs showsa single-pass gain of 3 dB with broad operation bandwidth. A single-pass gain of 2.6 dB is obtained experimentally in an InGaAs/InGaAlAs MQW amplifier, which is compared with calculations. The use of Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) structure in an optical amplifier is a useful way to increase the gain, but causes a problem of narrow operation bandwidth when the single-pass gain is low. Therefore, a single-pass gain above 2to 3 dB is a prerequisite to achieve both a high gain and moderate operation bandwidth in FPI-structured opticalamplifiers. We have designed an FPI-structured surface-normal optical amplifier both with a high gain of broad operation bandwidth of 4.6mm, when a single-pass gain is 3 dB.

The recent, a large capacity of telecommunication networks is required in order to it is in proportion to capacity of information communication increase and to satisfy a demand because of the demand about Internet, a multimedia service of internet, Video of internet protocol(VoIP), Audio/Video streaming. As a result, DWDM(Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing)technologies are emerging to be a prevailing the method of solving it without additional optical fiber network building and high-speed equipment. Therefore this thesis proposed the optical filter of fiber/multilayer slab coupled structure combining it to multilayer slab waveguide by polishing the cladding of one side of fiber to design the optical filter having these functions.
