    摘要: Provided is an optical deflector for deflecting radiation beams. The optical deflector includes: a peripheral region having a first effective refractive index; and a deflection pattern region having a predetermined shape and a second effective refractive index, wherein the second effective refractive index differs from the first effective refractive index. Here, due to the deflection pattern region having the predetermined shape, the radiation beams are deflected in a direction starting from a certain point. By using the optical deflector, the locus of a light source can be designed in one of various forms, such as a straight line, a circle, an ellipse, or a parabola.

    摘要: Provided is a wavelength tunable light source that can electrically tune wavelengths by monolithically integrating an optical amplifier, a beam steering unit, and a concave diffraction grating on a single substrate. A beam is deflected by the beam steering unit when an electrical signal is applied to two electrodes installed in the beam steering unit to be incident on the diffraction grating, and then diffracted by the diffraction grating according to the incidence angle such that part of the beam with a specific wavelength is reflected, thereby achieving wavelength tuning. Since the wavelength tuning is achieved electrically, the wavelength tunable light source is structurally stable and has a rapid wavelength tuning rate.

    摘要: Disclosed is an optical switch device for totally reflecting an incident light therein in accordance with a change in refractive index occurring owing to current application, which is manufactured by the steps of: sequentially forming an optical waveguide layer, an n-InP clad layer and an n-InGaAs cap layer on a main surface of an n-InP substrate using an epitaxial growing; selectively etching the n-InGaAs cap layer to form an opening tapered downward; diffusing an impurity into the n-InP clad layer through the opening and into the n-InGaAs cap layer to a predetermined depth from a surface thereof so as to form a first impurity diffused region in the n-InP clad layer under the opening and to form a second impurity diffused region along the surface of the n-InGaAs cap layer; etching the layers on the optical waveguide layer using a mask to form a ridge-shaped waveguide; and forming electrodes on the n-InGaAs cap layer and an exposed surface of the n-InP clad layer and on a surface which is opposite to the main surface of the n-InP substrate. Also, before forming the n-InGaAs cap layer, a p-InP current blocking layer is formed between the n-InP clad layer and the n-InGaAs cap layer so as to prevent a current from being dispersed other portions excluding the impurity diffused portion.

    摘要: Provided is a frequency-tunable terahertz light source device. The frequency-tunable terahertz light source device satisfies a Littrow diffraction condition at a wavelength and simultaneously satisfies a Littman-Metcalf diffraction condition at another wavelength using a double diffraction grating having two grating periods. Thus, oscillations simultaneously occur at the two different wavelengths, such that a terahertz wave can be stably generated by beating of the two oscillation wavelengths. In addition, the frequency-tunable terahertz light source device can readily change a frequency up to several terahertz and can be fabricated in a small size.
