    Abstract

    We demonstrated a mode-locked fiber laser oscillator using nonlinear polarization rotation as a saturable absorption system. The fiber laser generates mode-locked pulses by adjusting four waveplates. A single-clad Pr3+-doped single mode fluoride fiber with a 425 mW threshold pump power serves as the foundation for the ring cavity, which operates in the dissipative soliton resonance regime. The radio frequency signal-to-noise ratio of the pulses at 634.9 nm is 60 dB, maximum output power of 5.5 mW, and repetition rate of 34.5 MHz. These findings provide a foundation for the advancement of photonic applications in the visible spectrum.

    We propose a rapid tomographic vibrometer technique using an optical comb to measure internal vibrations, transient phenomena, and tomographic distributions in biological tissue and microelectromechanical system devices at high frequencies. This method allows phase-sensitive tomographic measurement in the depth direction at a multi-MHz scan rate using a frequency-modulated broadband electrooptic multi-GHz supercontinuum comb. The frequency spacing was swept instantaneously in time and axisymmetrically about the center wavelength via a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator driven by a variable radio frequency signal. This unique sweeping method permits direct measurement of fringe-free interferometric amplitude and phase with arbitrarily changeable measurement range and scan rate. Therefore, a compressive measurement can be made in only the depth region where the vibration exists, reducing the number of measurement points. In a proof-of-principle experiment, the interferometric amplitude and phase were investigated for in-phase and quadrature phase-shifted interferograms obtained by a polarization demodulator. Tomographic transient displacement measurements were performed using a 0.12 mm thick glass film and piezo-electric transducer oscillating at 10-100 kHz with scan rates in the range 1-20 MHz. The depth resolution and precision of the vibrometer were estimated to be approximately 25 µm and 1.0 nm, respectively.

  • Dispersion pre-compensation of 25.6 Tbps waveforms using an optical frequency comb synthesizer/analyzer               
    Nasrin Sultana; Hiroaki Tada; Hayate Imai; Tatsutoshi Shioda
    Optics Communications, 巻:475, 2020年11月
    © 2020 In this study, we propose and demonstrate a dispersion compensation system for an ultrafast 25.6 Tbps waveform using multilevel 8-ary amplitude and 32-ary phase modulation. The waveform bit period was 312.5 fs, which was controlled and compensated by a 200 GHz optical frequency comb (OFC) synthesizer with a 6.4 THz bandwidth. Dispersion spectra were measured in parallel and simultaneously (within 1 ms), based on single-shot dual-heterodyne mixing by introducing an OFC and arrayed waveguide grating to separate sidebands. An optical pulse synthesizer (OPS) can individually control the phase and amplitude spectra of the OFC. To control transmitted waveforms in a dispersed media, the OPS can be oppositely biased to feed the measured dispersion back into the source waveform when it generates an arbitrary waveform. In this study, a 25.6 Tbps dispersion-free waveform was successfully transmitted through a 10.55 km fiber.

    © 2019 Optical Society of America. We present a novel approach to high-speed dispersion spectroscopy that realizes a wide dynamic range, by simultaneous and parallel phase measurement using scanless dual-heterodyne mixing of 50 and 1.4 GHz frequency intervals. This system can realize parallel measurements of the relative phases between adjacent frequencies by introducing an optical frequency comb and intensity modulator to generate adjacent frequency and arrayed waveguide grating to separate the sidebands. The experimental results using single-mode fibers, whose lengths range from 0 to 92 km, indicated a 26 nm dispersion spectrum, 1785 ps/nm measurement range, and 0.27 ps/nm measurement uncertainty in 1 ms.

  • Optical dispersion spectroscopy using optical frequency comb applied to dual-heterodyne mixing               
    Kaishu Kasuga; Takayuki Miyamoto; Tatsutoshi Shioda
    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 巻:9754, 2016年
    © 2016 SPIE. The optical dispersion can be obtained from the adjacent relative phase between neighbor peaks in the optical frequency comb. Thus, the dispersion measurement becomes possible by measuring the relative phase spectrum. Our group has experimentally confirmed the operation principle by parallel capturing of the dispersion spectrum using an arrayed waveguide grating. We have proposed a dual-heterodyne mixing that obtained relative phases (ΔΦ) by fitting data of beat intensity versus optical path length difference. The path difference was applied by a delay line. In this study, we removed the delay line to realize a fast measurement by measuring simultaneous three relative phases with path length differences corresponding to π/2 or π, with which we have measured the dispersion in millisecond speed (250 sec. in previous). In general, it is effective to measured chromatic dispersion using high-speed signal transmission in the fundamental scientific research, such as the analysis of material properties and telecommunications. It is, however, that limit of cutoff frequency using measurement is the restriction on increasing of the speed. Our proposed method to observe it on a frequency domain is effective for the high-speed signal processing.

    © 2016 SPIE. Pseudo optical frequency comb using a high-speed frequency laser scanner and an optical resonator is generated as a virtual broadband lightsource for the time-domain 2D single-shot tomography and profilometry. High-speed laser scanner (40 kHz) is realized using a broadband semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) whose individual wavelengths are consequently picked up by a conventional grating setup and a high speed polygon mirror. The performance of the pseudo frequency comb is confirmed by a measurement of a reference step-height sample with an optical zooming operation.

We describe principle of spatially-resolved spectroscopy using swept source optical interferometry and demonstrate it using a multi-layered polypropylene and glass plates piled sample. The advantages of this technique compared to conventional spectroscopy technique are realizing spatially-resolved spectroscopy as transmittance spectra of each layer and obtaining tomographic image of the sample simultaneously. Moreover, potential for spectroscopy is the method we propose can calculate absorption coefficient of each mediums. In this demonstration, we could 1D tomographic image of multi-layered sample and characterize PP layer and glass layer by comparing transmittance spectra in near infrared region.

  • Frequency-domain single-shot optical frequency comb tomography using VIPA               
    Takumi Miyaoka; Tatsutoshi Shioda
    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 巻:9754, 2016年
    © 2016 SPIE. Novel two-dimensional single-shot imaging optical system based on Frequency-domain interferometry using a virtually imaged phased array is proposed. The VIPA simultaneously outputs incoherent optical frequency combs (OFCs) whose teeth interval are scanned as a function of its output angle. Teeth intervals of the OFCs only in a reference are spatially swept by using of a VIPA whose advantage compared to an optical resonator. Thus, the single-shot imaging system can be realized with the FSR scanned frequency-domain OFC interference monitored by CCD. This system enable high speed 2-dimensional tomographic image without mechanical moving part. And the axial measurement range is not limited by using multi-order interference that is generated by OFCs interferometry. We will present the operation principle with its confirmed results in terms of both simulation and experiment.

The line-shape interference fringes with the individual fringe orders are obtained by a CCD camera in real time. The relative optical length, corresponding to the sample depth information, can be derived from the positions of the interference fringes on the CCD camera and their corresponding fringe orders. The fringe orders can be rapidly calculated using the effectiveness of the changeable extraordinary refractive index of the liquid-crystal material of the resonator. The finesse of the liquid-crystal resonator is approximate 9, giving an expansion of the measurement range of up to 9-fold (∼8 mmdepth)with a resolution of profilometry and tomography of 3.7 μmand11μm, respectively.

  • Single-shot, long-range, and zoomable optical tomography and profilometry using a diffraction grating and a CCD camera

    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 巻:9655, 2015年
    © 2015 Copyright SPIE. We have developed a novel single-shot optical tomography and profilometry that is able to measure the tomograms and surface profiles of a sample in realtime with long measurable range. The system comprises of an optical frequency comb interferometry and a diffraction grating. The grating plays as a spatial phase modulator (SPM), so that the realtime interference images can be achieved by a CCD camera. Owing to the diffraction lights by the SPM, the axial zooming operation of the proposed system can be realized. The zooming range of the proposed system depends on how many diffraction orders are generated by the SPM. Measurements of a reference Gauge-block step-height sample at different diffraction orders are performed to evaluate the proposed system.

  • Novel two-dimensional single-shot optical imaging system by VIPA-comb interferometry               
    Takumi Miyaoka; Tatsutoshi Shioda
    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 巻:9655, 2015年
    © 2015 Copyright SPIE. We propose a novel system for a two-dimensional (2-D) single-shot tomography and profilometry that can be realized by installing a Virtually Imaged Phased Array (VIPA) into a 2-D interferometer with a CCD. The VIPA simultaneously outputs incoherent optical frequency combs (OFC) whose teeth interval, such as free-spectral range (FSR), are scanned as a function of its output angle when the low-coherent light source is incident into the VIPA. Thus, the single-shot imaging can be realized with the FSR scanned Fourier-domain OFC interference monitored by the CCD. In other words, the fast imaging without mechanical moving part can be operated by the proposed OFC interferometry. And VIPA can use all of incident light. So this system enables to realize a high energy efficient interference measurement. FSR of the output light of the VIPA is nonlinear with respect to the sweep direction. So we simulated the characteristics of the VIPA. As a result, we knew linearity optimal output angle depend on reflective index of the VIPA. And the VIPA can change the measurement range on the CCD by the number. In other word, the VIPA can zoom in and out no mechanical part. We will present the operation principle with its confirmed results in terms of both simulation and experiment.

    A first-order beam diffracted by periodic arrays of GMR structures consisting of Pt/Co free layers having perpendicular magnetization without a top electrode is investigated. Linear and two-dimensional arrays of various shapes having sizes of 10-50 μm and periods of 20-100 μm embedded in SiO 2 are fabricated. The angles of the plane of polarization for first or (1,0) diffraction spots at a wavelength of 633 nm are measured to be approximately 0.5 for all samples. The polarization angles for one- and two-dimensional arrays of magnetic patterns are studied theoretically by assuming that the structures have sinusoidal magnetic distributions. They are found to depend on the Kerr rotation angle of the Pt/Co multilayer and on the difference in reflectance between the Pt/Co and SiO2, but they are independent of the periodicities, sizes, and shapes of the patterns. On the other hand, the diffraction efficiencies due to the magneto-optical effect depend on the reflectance and Kerr rotation angles of the magnetic materials. The diffraction efficiency of the component arising from the magneto-optical effect is discussed. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

    Dual-heterodyne mixing has been developed to detect high-speed optical signal waveforms and measure not only the amplitude spectrum but also the phase spectrum. In the present study, this method was applied to a simple experiment that demodulated intensity-modulated terabit signals, and it successfully demodulated an 80 ps non monotonic optical pulse train of 12.5 Gbps 8 bit phase-modulated signals as arbitrary waveforms with dual-heterodyne mixing. These results will be the foundation for phase-shift-keying technology that increases future communication capacity.© 2014 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    An optical resonator was installed as an incoherent frequency comb generator into a two-dimensional single-shot profilometry and tomography system to increase the measurement range up to 30 times compared with a conventional white-light interferometer. The dynamic range of the sample set position was experimentally confirmed to be ∼28 mm, equivalent to the coherency of the resonator. Scanless measurement can be achieved through high-order comb interference. In this study, we demonstrated tomography with a resolution of ∼11 μm and effective high-order interference fringe discrimination. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  • Polarization state of scattered light in apertureless reflection-mode scanning near-field optical microscopy

    We studied the polarization state in an apertureless scanning near-field microscopy (a-SNOM) operating in reflection mode by using three-dimensional Finite-difference Time-domain (FDTD) method. As a result, the electric field around tip apex in the near-field region enhanced four times stronger than the incident light for ppolarization when the tip-sample separation was 10 nm. We find that the p- and s-polarization state is maintained for the scattered light when the probe is perpendicular to the sample. When the probe is not perpendicular to the sample, the polarization state of scattered light will rotate an angle that equals to the inclination angle of probe with p-polarization illumination. On the other hand, the polarization state will not rotate with s-polarization illumination. © The Korean Magnetics Society. All rights reserved.

    A multi-gigahertz frequency comb (MGFC)-based interferometer was developed for profilometry and tomography using a frequency variable supercontinuum (SC). The comparatively flattened and broadened SC light source with variable multi-gigahertz interval frequency was developed using an optical pulse synthesizer and highly nonlinear dispersion flattened fiber. The generated SC provided a stable interference output with a full width half maximum of 19 μ m during interval frequency sweeping of over 400 MHz. We experimentally confirmed that the interference signal exhibited an envelope-only waveform without fringes, which enabled the drastic reduction of the sampling points resulting in high speed measurement. A full-field 3-D image with 320 × 256 × 300 pixels was acquired with a measurement time of only 10 seconds. It was demonstrated that the MGFC-based interferometer with the novel SC light source has the potential for application in a high speed full-field 3-D metrology. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

  • Three-wavelength parallel optical fiber dispersion measurement using dual-heterodyne mixing               
    Tatsutoshi Shioda; Naoya Shimizu; Masaichi Nakamura
    Applied Optics, 巻:51, 号:27, 開始ページ:6586, 終了ページ:6593, 2012年09月
    We propose a novel optical dispersion measurement system using dual-heterodyne mixing to measure the relative phase. The system can realize parallel measurement of the relative phases between adjacent frequencies by introducing optical modulators to generate optical sidebands from a laser light source and an arrayed waveguide grating to separate the sidebands. To realize a wide dispersion range, different frequency intervals for the adjacent frequencies were combined in the system. One is the three-frequency optical dispersion measurement system (three-frequency measurement), which has been developed to measure the relative phase between adjacent peaks of an optical frequency spectrum with intervals of 25 GHz generated without any frequency scanning. The other is the four-frequency optical dispersion measurement system (four-frequency measurement) with intervals of 2 GHz generated from the threefrequency sets to expand the measurement range. The experimental results using single-mode optical fibers of different lengths from 0 to 90 km indicated the dispersion slope to be 16.8 ps/nm/km with a measurement range of 2500 ps/nm and an uncertainty of less than 1 ps/nm. The proposed system provides advantages to enable parallel measurement on a frequency axis without a high-speed (GHz) photodetector, even though GHz spacing on the optical scale is used, thus reflecting the dual-heterodyne mixing. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

    We propose an ultrafast optical arbitrary waveform synthesizing/analyzing technique demonstrated with 2 Tbit/s waveforms. An ultrafast waveform was generated by manipulating the amplitude and phase of a 400 GHz optical frequency comb using a newly developed colorless optical synthesizer. The 400 GHz optical frequency comb was generated from a 25 GHz optical frequency comb using a colorless arrayed waveguide grating. This waveform was then analyzed on the frequency axis using a custom heterodyne-detection technique based on the dual-heterodyne mixing method. The phase and amplitude spectra can be observed in parallel using another optical frequency comb as a reference combined with an arrayed waveguide grating. This optical system, named the ultrafast optical frequency comb synthesizer and analyzer, can synthesize and analyze an arbitrary waveform in the THz frequency region. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

    A virtually imaged phased array (VIPA) installed optical interferometer has been expanded to the two-dimensional (2D) tomography from the previous one-dimensional single-shot imaging technique with keeping the resolution and the measurement range. A single-shot measurement has been realized by a spatial phase modulator installed in the optical interferometer and tracing the delay time to pixel numbers on a 2D charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor. The flexibility of the sample position was experimentally confirmed to be >25 mm, in relation to the VIPA coherency, for which the number of the interference order was confirmed to be 35. As a demonstration, a surface profile of stacked gauge blocks was observed. The repeatability of the surface position was 5 μm for the surface profilometry. In addition, a multilayer structure was observed using a glass plate. The experimental resolution was 53 μm when the amplified spontaneous emission light generated by the optical fiber amplifier was used for the light source. The single-shot measurement was confirmed by the 2D-CCD at a frame rate of 30 frames per second (FPS), and it provided evidence that the 2D scanless profilometry was successfully achieved using the VIPA optical device. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

  • Spectral waveform measurement of 2 THz optical frequency comb by dual-heterodyne mixing               
    Toshiaki Yamazaki; Mitsuru Kuzuwata; Tatsutoshi Shioda
    Journal of the Optical Society of America B: Optical Physics, 巻:29, 号:7, 開始ページ:1707, 終了ページ:1711, 2012年07月
    A technique for measuring the relative phase between optical longitudinal modes in an optical frequency comb (OFC) has been proposed, and applied to the characterization of the OFC. The measurement frequency range was expanded to 2 THz using the OFC of a line spacing of 10 GHz. Furthermore, an algorithm for data analysis was proposed by calculating Fourier transformation of the fragmentized waveform of the data measured by the dualheterodyne mixing method. As a result, a pulse width of 2.1 ps was observed on a time scale of 100 ps with a resolution of 500 fs, which is inversely proportional to the measured frequency band in general (2 THz in this study). These results were also compared with those obtained from an optical autocorrelator. The measured electric field spectra provide a lot of information, involving a frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) trace and a phase variation profile plotted against time. Amplitude and phase spectral evolutions were reconstructed directly from the electric field spectra and referred to as a dual-heterodyne mixing trace. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the proposed technique is effective in reading out detailed information from the ultrafast waveform measurement. © 2012 Optical Society of America.

  • High-resolution spectroscopy using interleaved 100 GHz optical frequency comb scanned by phase modulator               
    Tatsutoshi Shioda; Kenichiro Fujii; Ken Kashiwagi; Takashi Kurokawa
    Optics Communications, 巻:284, 号:21, 開始ページ:5180, 終了ページ:5184, 2011年10月, [査読有り]
    A high-resolution spectroscopy technique is proposed with an optical phase modulator combined with an interleaved optical frequency comb. The optical phase modulator and a frequency-locked laser light guarantee a spectral resolution less than 1 MHz on an absolute frequency axis. A wide measurement frequency range was realized using a 25 GHz optical frequency comb lying over a 4 THz frequency region. An extraction of single tooth intensity from the comb was realized by a heterodyne technique with a frequency-tunable laser used as a local oscillator. Also, the 25 GHz optical frequency comb was interleaved to generate four 100-GHz combs for removing the crosstalk from the 25 GHz neighboring sidebands in the teeth. This proposed spectroscopy technique was experimentally demonstrated with a resonator of less than 1 MHz linewidth and a H13C14N gas cell. Thus, a measurement frequency range higher than 4 THz (1530 nm-1560 nm) was confirmed with an effective spectral resolution 100 kHz order. In addition, the characteristics of the proposed system were compared with those of the previous system with a single-sideband (SSB) optical modulator. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We present a simple yet efficient, competitive, and practical fabrication method, called "polarizer rotation exposure", for preparing vector gratings with a large area and a high diffraction efficiency. The polarization states of ultraviolet light were modulated by rotating the polarizer, and the resultant ultraviolet light was line-focused onto hydrogen-bonded liquid crystalline polymer films set on a linear stage. Mesogenic molecules in the polymer films were reoriented according to the light electric vectors, and vector gratings in which the optical anisotropy is periodically modulated were fabricated by the polarizer rotation exposure method. © 2011 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    A VIPA (virtually imaged phased array) installed optical interferometer has been proposed for scanless tomography. Also, a spatial phase modulator and a line-image sensor were installed into the interferometer to realize single-shot measurement by displaying the delay time on a line-image sensor. The correlation peak function was observed on the line-sensor at same time. The envelope of the peak was given by the inverse Fourier transformation of the light source spectrum. The peak position on the image-sensor reflects the sample structure. Furthermore, the correlation peaks are appeared repeatedly along the delay time of the interferometer. The repeated correlation function raise an alignment flexibility of the sample set position, which has been limited in the traditional time-domain interferometry involving the delay time to be zero. The flexibility was experimentally confirmed at 25 mm related to the VIPA coherency. The resolution was experimentally 52.5 μm when the ASE (amplified spontaneous emission) light source of the optical fiber amplifier was used. The single-shot measurement was realized by a line-image sensor of the 30 frames per second. The repeatability of the interfered peak position was 5 μm by the tunable mirror position. The one-dimensional scanless measurement was demonstrated by use of 3-layer glass plates. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Phase-type diffraction gratings, inscribed using an ultraviolet laser beam, were grown in a thin film of a photoreactive monomer base mixture over a period of several hours. The photopolymerization of monomers and subsequent molecular migrations generated both surface relief gratings and inner refractive index modulation. The changes in the diffraction intensity over time revealed the pronounced behavior of grating formation, which can be explained using a time-dependent model based on the Raman-Nath diffraction theory. Homogeneous irradiation with ultraviolet light during the growth enabled us to fix the diffraction characteristics of the gratings at an arbitrary moment in time, allowing us to tailor the resultant diffraction gratings according to a desired specification. This sequential process can have practical applications. © 2010 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    A novel method to measure a relative phase between frequency-different optical wavelengths has been proposed and named as Dual-heterodyne-mixing method. The operation principle of the method is represented, where the relative phase is simply described as dc voltage. The operation principle was experimentally confirmed with 0- and π-phase-different optical pairs generated by an intensity modulator. Also, it has been applied for a high-speed signal sensing with a high-resolution amplitude spectrum measurement method. A 12.5 Gbps signal sensing with 1/63 relatively low-speed photodetector (200 MHz) was demonstrated. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    A new photo-cross-linkable liquid crystalline polymer (PLCP) comprised 4-methoxycinnamoyloxy groups connected with a bistolane side group was synthesized to investigate thermally enhanced photoinduced molecular reorientation of a thin film with linearly polarized (LP) 365. nm light exposure. Due to the axis-selective photoreaction of the cinnamate groups followed by the thermally induced self-organization, large molecular reorientation parallel to the polarization of LPUV light (S>0.6) and large birefringence at the non-resonance region (Δ n=0.34 at 632.8. nm) were obtained. The obtained Δ n value is the largest among transparent PLCPs in the visible region. The influence of the degree of photoreaction and the annealing temperature on the thermally enhanced molecular reorientation behavior was explored in detail. Finally, for an application of thin optical devices using the PLCP films, pure polarization holographic gratings with large birefringence, which showed periodic molecularly oriented structure, were fabricated using a 325. nm He-Cd laser in various polarization modes and characterized their optical properties. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

    GdFe spin-valve structures, Si/bottom electrode/TbFeCo/CoFe (1 nm)/Cu (6 nm)/GdFe (10 nm)/Ru, with dimensions of 20×20 μ m2 were investigated by a magneto-optical imaging technique. In a parallel configuration, i.e., a configuration in which the magnetization directions of GdFe and TbFeCo layers are parallel, the coercivity (Hc) decreases when nucleation centers are present in the patterns. In the antiparallel configuration, although few nucleation centers are present the deviation in Hc is greater than that in the parallel configuration. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.

    A detailed analysis of two-dimensional liquid crystalline grating cells is presented. Crossed liquid crystalline gratings were prepared using two kinds of photo-alignment polymers, i.e., poly(vinyl cinnamate) (PVCi) and photocrosslinkable polymer liquid crystal (PCLC). The effects of the anchoring strength of photo-alignment polymer films and crossing angles of grating vectors on one pair of photo-alignment substrates were extensively investigated using elastic continuum analysis, Jones calculus, and diffraction theory. The anchoring strength of our PCLC film was sufficiently strong, and experimental observation was in good agreement with the theoretical values obtained assuming the strong anchoring (fixed boundary conditions), although PCLC still has limits with the capability of photo-alignment of the low-molar-mass liquid crystals. ©2009 Optical Society of America.

    We propose a novel power-line-monitoring system using optical fibers for transmitting power as well as signal. The principle is experimentally confirmed with a system composed of a monitoring side with a 1.5-μm laser diode, transmission line of a single mode fiber, and a sensing side having an efficient photovoltaic (PV) cell, electrical junction sensor, and low power liquid crystal optical modulator (LCOM). The PV cell generates the electrical power in the sensing side with a conversion efficiency of 20%. The LCOM is driven with low power of less than 50 μW, modulates the laser light with a signal indicating the power line condition, and transmits the optical signal. The developed sensing unit produces an optical signal having an extinction ratio of 15 dB with low optical power of 1.8 mW. Five systems were in operation for two years, faithfully monitoring the oil pressure in electrical cables every 20 min without incident. © 2009 The Optical Society of Japan.

    Diffractive optical devices using low-molar-mass liquid crystals are of great important for realizing numerical optical functions such as optical memory and information systems. In the present study the liquid crystalline gratings have been fabricated using a pair of photo-alignment substrates, and effects of the phase shift between the two photo-alignment substrates on the diffraction properties have been investigated. The liquid crystalline grating has been constructed with variable polarization dependence that can be controlled by the phase shift between the two photo-alignment substrates and twisted angles of the nematic directors. The theoretical considerations were also performed using the elastic continuum theory, Jones calculus, and diffraction theory. A guiding principle that controls the diffraction properties of the liquid crystalline grating cell was successfully presented. © 2009 Optical Society of America.

  • Transmission and reflection phase gratings formed in azo-dye-doped chiral nematic liquid crystals               
    Tomoyuki Sasaki; Akira Emoto; Tatsutoshi Shioda; Hiroshi Ono
    Applied Physics Letters, 巻:94, 号:2, 2009年
    Transmission and reflection gratings were simultaneously formed in azo-dye-doped chiral nematic liquid crystals (N* LCs) with planar alignment. The formation process is based on a phototuning of the Bragg reflection band of the N* LC. The helical pitch of the photoreactive N* LC was spatially controlled with intensity variation of interference light. The resultant periodic structure showed both transmissive and reflective diffractions due to the spatially modulated light intensities. The observed dependence of diffraction efficiencies on the polarization states of the probe beam was well explained by considering a spatial modulation of the helical pitch. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

  • One- and two-dimensional anisotropic diffractive gratings formed by periodic orthogonal molecular alignment in a hydrogen-bonded liquid crystalline polymer

    Journal of Applied Physics, 巻:105, 号:10, 2009年
    Anisotropic diffractive gratings having periodic orthogonal molecular alignments are formed by a linearly polarized ultraviolet (LPUV) exposure through a photomask in hydrogen (H)-bonding liquid crystalline polymers (H-LCPs) using a unique molecular reorientation behavior. H-bonded side-chain groups of H-LCPs play an important role in the molecular reorientation and the resultant optical anisotropy originating from an intermolecular network composition. To evaluate its potential for optical applications, one- and two-dimensional diffractive gratings were fabricated and analyzed by both polarization optical microscopy and diffraction characteristics. As a result, anisotropic gratings using H-LCP were obtained with a high diffraction efficiency that was 80% of the theoretical maximum efficiency (33.9%) of thin diffractive gratings. Results of experimental and theoretical investigation reveal that the resultant molecular direction and optical anisotropy are generated and controlled by LPUV exposure. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

    Journal of Applied Physics, 巻:105, 号:12, 2009年
    We report the experimental results of two-dimensional patterning of colloidal crystals using edge-patterned cells. Solvent evaporation of a colloidal suspension from the edge of the cell induces self-organized crystallization of spherical colloidal particles. From a reservoir of colloidal suspension in the cell, different colloidal suspensions are injected repetitively. An edge-patterned substrate is introduced into the cell as an upper substrate. As a result, different colloidal crystals are alternately stacked in the lateral direction according to the edge pattern. The characteristics of cloning formation are specifically showed including deformations from the original pattern. This two-dimensional patterning of three-dimensional colloidal crystals by means of lateral autocloning is promising for the development of photonic crystal arrays for use in optic and photonic devices. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

    Journal of Applied Physics, 巻:106, 号:7, 2009年
    Polarization gratings with large birefringence are formed in photoreactive polymer liquid crystals with bistolane moiety and terminal cinnamic acid moiety by the use of polarized ultraviolet interference light and subsequent annealing. The polarized ultraviolet light causes the axis-selective photoreaction between the cinnamic acid groups and subsequent annealing induce the reorientation of peripheral molecules without cross-linking along the cross-linked groups. Long bistolane mesogenic moiety exhibits large birefringence in comparison with a biphenyl mesogenic moiety, the value of the induced birefringence in the bistolane mesogenic liquid crystalline (LC) polymer is strongly dependent on both the grating constant and the wavelength of the reconstruction light. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

    In the present paper, we extensively study the optical diffraction in two- and three-dimensional vector holograms and demonstrate the reconstruction of polarized optical images recorded in azobenzene-containing amorphous polymers (AP) and polymer-dissolved liquid-crystalline composites (PDLCC). The polarization states of the interference light are not modulated in the isotropic AP films, while modulated in the anisotropic PDLCC films. The information of the polarized optical image is recorded as the polarization induced anisotropy in the AP and PDLCC medium and is reconstructed as the polarized optical images. The theoretical consideration well explained the characteristics of the reconstructed polarized optical images from both two- and three-dimensional vector holograms. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

    Real-time generation and switching of 100-Gb/s optical packets with 8-bit return-to-zero pulse patterns was realized by constructing a lookup table of the control signal for use by an optical pulse synthesizer. The resulting packet patterns agreed well with the design specifications. The reproducibility of a packet pattern for a given control current was also confirmed. © 2009 IEEE.

    We developed a multicarrier light source with a 50GHz spacing using a 25-GHz-spacing comb generator and 50-GHz-spacing comb filter. The comb generator was composed of a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulator with push-pull operation and a phase modulator (PM). The MZ modulator and PM were overdriven at 12.5GHz and at a harmonic of 25 GHz, respectively. We produced 23 comb lines with a flatness below 1.7 dB, which were demultiplexed to produce 11 channel carriers. The relative intensity noise for each carrier was almost equal to that of the seed laser diode (LD). The crosstalk between neighboring channels was less than -35 dB. It was also confirmed that our comb generator is independent of the wavelength of the seed LD and can cover approximately one hundred channels of the entire C-band with eight seed LDs. Experiments on transmission over 100km achieved a bit error rate of 10-12 for the 10 Gbps non-return-to-zero signal. © 2009 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    In this study, we experimentally characterize optical short-pulse transmission through single-mode fibers. The initial pulses were precisely generated by an optical pulse synthesizer. The optical pulse synthesizer provides line-by-line phase and intensity modulations to individual channels in optical frequency combs and generates precise arbitral pulses. Pulse shaping enables the experimental evaluation of pulse transmission along the fibers under various initial pulse conditions, and the pulse evolution of Gaussian and sech2 pulses through standard single-mode fibers (SMFs) was experimentally investigated. The sech2 pulses had smaller pulse broadening and distortion than the Gaussian ones at the same pulse width and peak power. The sech2 pulses nearly maintained their initial time bandwidth products (TBPs). The required pulse peak power for soliton transmission matched the theoretical value. © 2009 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    We propose a novel supercontinuum (SC) generation technology using an optical pulse synthesizer and highly nonlinear dispersion-shifted fiber. The optical pulse synthesizer enables us to reshape seed pulses optimized for broadband SC generation. 25.0 and 12.5GHz SC combs were successfully generated by propagating synthesized seed pulses in the highly nonlinear fiber. We investigated how seed pulse conditions including shape, peak power, repetition rate, and center wavelength affect SC spectral bandwidth. We also evaluated interferometric signal waveforms from a Michelson interferometer using the generated SC comb as the light source. Interferometric peak width improved to 35.5 μm when peak power reached 7.9W for the Gaussian pulse-based SC comb. Numerical simulation results almost agreed with experimental results. The difference between SC combs generated from Gaussian and sech2 pulses was confirmed by the simulations. © 2009 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    Light wave propagation in thick polarization gratings has been studied using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The diffraction properties of the polarization Bragg gratings were strongly dependent on both the polarization state and incident angle of the probe beam. These characteristics were well explained by the FDTD calculation and the subsequent Fourier transformation. The FDTD calculation also revealed the light electric field near and/or in the polarization Bragg gratings. © 2008 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    In this paper, analog and digital optical pulse synthesizers using high-resolution arrayed-waveguide gratings (AWG) have been developed. The analog type of optical synthesizer consists of an AWG with an integrated 45°, curved-surfaced mirror, a 4-f lens system, and an optically addressable spatial light modulator. The effective frequency resolution is 14.5 GHz. A dispersion compensation experiment is successfully carried out and a transform-limited short pulse has been obtained. This digital type of optical synthesizer comprises 30 frequency separated channels with a spacing of 12.5 GHz, where each channel includes an amplitude modulator and a phase modulator. The rectangular-shaped pulse is generated with this pulse synthesizer, together with a 12.5-GHz-spacing, optical frequency comb. The synthesizer can generate an optical pulse with any waveform. Moreover, using periodic characteristics of the pulse synthesizer, a 250-GHz repetition rate pulse train was generated, in combination with an ultrawideband, waveguide type of Fabry-Perot electrooptic modulator. © 2008 IEEE.

    The polarization compensation of a Faraday rotator reflector was quantitatively measured while applying mechanical stress to an optical fiber. A novel device called a Faraday rotator transmitter was developed to illuminate a sample. It was confirmed that the installation of both a Faraday rotator reflector and a Faraday rotator transmitter in a fiber-optic interferometer greatly improves the accuracy of film thickness measurements compared with measurements obtained using an interferometer that employed polarization- maintaining optical fibers. © 2007 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

The three-dimensional images were captured using a line-type image sensor without any mechanical moving parts with a frequency interval variation of 25 GHz. The dynamic range in the depth direction was about 1.4 mm and the measurement resolution was 35 p.m. The standard deviation of seven thickness measurements was 5 μm. © 2007 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

  • Polarization fluctuation suppression and sensitivity enhancement of an optical correlation sensing system               
    H. B. Song; T. Suzuki; T. Fujimura; K. Nonaka; T. Shioda; T. Kurokawa

    Based on the optical pulse correlation measurement and differential detection technique, an optical fibre sensor with high time resolution has been developed. However, due to the birefringence in single mode fibre induced by the uneven thermal effect, polarization fluctuation in the correlation signal was observed. In order to suppress the polarization fluctuation in the correlation sensing system, a polarization-suppressed optical correlation sensing system is proposed by utilizing the birefringence compensation approach in a retraced fibre path using Faraday rotator mirror elements. The polarization fluctuation of the output correlation signals is suppressed by more than 15 dB. The results of temperature experiment indicate that the linearity between the temperature and differential signal is further improved. With the reflection of the mirror, a double-pass monitoring is established, which significantly enhances the sensitivities of the sensing system to temperature and strain. © 2007 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    In this paper, we investigate the resolution, accuracy, and noise factor of distance measurement using intensity-modulated light and a photodetector with two-photon absorption (TPA) characteristics. Distance resolution and measurement accuracy are clarified theoretically and experimentally in terms of the sweeping range and the scanning step of the intensity-modulation frequency. The theory of accuracy improvement by signal processing known as the "Fourier transform method" is experimentally confirmed for the first time. The influence of a photodetector's temperature on measurement resolution is also made clear by the experiments. A high resolution is achieved by controlling the photodetector at a low temperature, which is explained from the temperature dependence of TPA sensitivity in the photodetector. In addition to these investigations, we discuss the advantage of the TPA-based distance measurement over other conventional methods such as optical time domain reflectometry from the viewpoints of cost and measurement performance. © 2007 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    A three-dimensional common-path interferometer is proposed, which can achromatically null out an on-axis source while it maintains the detectability of an off-axis source. A geometric phase in the three-dimensional interferometer introduces an achromatic π-phase shift to the light from the on-axis source, such that destructive interference nulls out the axial light at one of the ports of the interferometer. Light from the off-axis source, which is exempt from the π-phase shift, comes out from both ports with equal intensity. The common-path scheme makes the system highly immune to environmental disturbances. © 2005 Optical Society of America.

  • Orientation of liquid crystal molecules evaporated onto rubbed and photoaligned polymer surfaces

    Second-harmonic generation (SHG) and polarized ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) absorption have been used to study the orientational distribution function of 5CB (4′-n-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl) liquid crystal (LC) molecules adsorbed on rubbed and photoaligned photoisomerizable polyamic acid layers. The simultaneous analysis of SHG and polarized UV-VIS absorption data using the maximum entropy method shows that the anisotropic distribution of 5CB molecules along the rubbing direction tilts up from the surface plane as the molecular density increases. More interestingly, the anisotropy is relatively low at the first stage of the evaporation and becomes gradually pronounced, indicating an important role played by the long-range intermolecular interaction among LC molecules for LC surface alignment. No orientation formation of non-liquid crystalline 4CB (4′-n-butyl-4-cyanobiphenyl) molecules on the treated surfaces supports this conclusion. It is important to emphasize that a relatively small fraction of molecules contribute to give a polar order, but the rest form dimers even at the early stage of the evaporation. This tendency is particularly marked on the photoaligned surface; no SHG activity arises irrespective of the amount of evaporated molecules. © 2005 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.

    A novel method of ultrahigh-resolution spectroscopy has been developed by means of an optical single-sideband (SSB) modulator as an optical frequency shifter and a fiber grating laser with narrow line-width. The modulation frequency of the optical SSB modulator is electrically scanned by an RF-generator over several GHz, which sweeps the frequency of the probe light without mode hopping. The experimental result successfully showed MHz digit of resolution. © 2005 Optical Society of America.

    Small quantities of the bent-core mesogen P-7PIMB were dissolved in an anticlinic liquid crystal consisting of a mixture of left- and right-handed TFMHPOBC, with enantiomer excess X = 0.2. For bent-core concentrations above C = 3 wt %, differential scanning calorimetry shows the disappearance of the higher temperature synclinic phase, as well as the appearance of a new peak at a low temperature Tc. Polarized infrared absorption measurements indicate that the new DSC peak is due to an orientational transition of the bent-core molecules, analogous to the transition previously observed in a smectic A matrix. For T > Tc the plane of the bent-core molecules lies in the tilt plane of the anticlinic matrix, with the arrow (the symmetry axis) of the bent-core molecules parallel to the smectic layers. For T < Tc we deduce that the bent-core molecules lie within a single smectic layer, with the polar tilt of the arrow approximately equal to the polar tilt of the TFMHPOBC molecule and the vector connecting the two ends of the bent-core molecule perpendicular to the anticlinic tilt plane. Additionally, Tc was found to be an increasing function of bent-core concentration.

  • Achromatic coronagraph based on out-of-plane common-path nulling interferometer

    3D common-path interferometer is proposed to obtain achromatic nulling for star coronagraphy. Common-path scheme compensates optical path difference (OPD) effectively and is stable to mechanical vibrations. 3D ray geometry involves polarization rotations ±90° in each interferometer arm and results in achromatic 180° phase shift for destructive interference for on-axial source. The interferometer throughput is obtained at nearly 100% for entire polarized light and nearly 50/50 ratio of light energy is split between Bright and Nulled ports for off-axial source. Theory, simulations and preliminary breadboard experiments are shown in reasonable agreement.

    A step-wise Fre′edericksz transition in a nematic liquid crystal was studied. It was shown that the intensity-voltage profile above the Fre′edericksz threshold voltage may exhibit a shoulder by controlling the anchoring strength on a pixel-by-pixel basis. The two glass substrates coated with a semitransparent layer of electrically conducting indium-tin oxide were cleaned consecutively in detergent, water, acetone and ethanol. It was found that at highest temperature, δT=0.8°C, the intensity-voltage curve exhibits a profile typical for a Fre′edericksz transition in which both substrates were characterized by a spatially uniform anchoring strength coefficient.

    The anisotropy of molecular polarizability Δα of several nematogens has been determined by depolarized Rayleigh light scattering. The experimentally determined values were found to be noticeably smaller than those obtained by MOPAC calculation. Δα values determined from order parameter S and refractive indices show reasonably good agreement with those determined in the present experiment. This result warns us that Δα calculated by MOPAC, particularly at a finite wavelength, may be larger than the true value.

    A continuous transition from tilted to homeotropic alignment at an interface is observed at a temperature [Formula presented] for a nematic liquid crystal on cooling toward the nematic–smectic-[Formula presented] phase transition temperature. [Formula presented] is found to depend on the treatment of the substrate. The behavior is examined theoretically in terms of a pair of competing easy axes (homeotropic and planar) and the tilt elasticity associated with the growth of surface-induced smectic order. © 2003 The American Physical Society.

    We have investigated the molecular orientation of a liquid crystal (LC), pentylcyanobiphenyl (5CB), evaporated on a rubbed polymer by means of polarized ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy and surface second-harmonic generation. The results unambiguously reveal that the in-plane anisotropy is diminishingly small before the molecules form a monolayer, although films thicker than one monolayer have a finite in-plane anisotropy. This drastic change indicates that LC molecules on rubbed surfaces do not align well without the influence of the intermolecular interaction of LCs. Actually we confirmed that nonliquid-crystalline butylcyanobipheny (4CB) exhibits no orientation on the rubbed polymer surface regardless of thickness.

    Molecular reorientation by rubbing and photoalignment processes in polymer alignment layer for liquid crystals has been studied by linear optical absorption and surface optical second-harmonic generation. It was found that rubbing produces polar and axial orders in the photoisomerizable polyamic acid (PAA) containing azobenzene groups in the main chain, while photoalignment after rubbing destroys the polar order but is capable of reorienting the PAA main chain without creating further polar order.

  • Polarization characteristics from SFG spectra of clean and regulatively oxidized Ni(100) surfaces adsorbed by propionate and formate

    Experiments have been carried out on propionate and formate adsorbed on clean and regulatively oxidized Ni(100) surfaces to scrutinize the notion that the polarization characteristics of infrared-visible sum frequency generation (SFG) signals of molecules on metallic surfaces are different from those due to molecules on insulating surfaces. Both propionate and formate give signals only for p-polarized visible pulses on clean metal and oxygen-saturated surfaces, but signals due to s-polarized visible pulses appeared from the propionate-covered surface as soon as the surface was covered with a monolayer of NiO(100). Vibrational peaks of propionate were located at 2887, 2945, and 2988 cm-1 and were assigned to the symmetric stretching mode of CH2 group, the symmetric stretching mode of CH3 group, and the degenerate stretching mode of CH3 group, respectively. The peak of the surface formate was located at 2948 cm-1 on the clean metal surface, but another band appeared at 2860 cm-1 on oxide-layered surfaces. The causes of the appearance of the (sp) polarization signals by the presence of the NiO layer are discussed. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

    © 2019 Elsevier B.V. We propose 2D single-shot comb interferometry with the capability of zooming along the axial axis for profilometry and tomography. A spatial phase modulator (SPM) based a diffraction grating is utilized to realize the zooming operation with a fine scale in the proposed system. The measurable range of the fine scale can be varied from 200μm to 1.2 mm by controlling the diffraction orders of the SPM, allowing a magnification tool for surface profilometry. An optical-frequency comb-interferometry-based Fabry–Perot etalon is used to extend the measurement range of proposed system with a coarse scale up to 10.8 mm. In both the coarse and fine scales, the tomography resolution is maintained at approximately 2.5μm.

  • Generation of broadband frequency-variable laser comb allowing full-frequency sweep in the near-infrared region

    © 2019 Elsevier B.V. We succeeded in developing a broadband-frequency-variable laser comb with a mode spacing of 12.5 GHz in the near-infrared region. We found that the spectrum of optical pump pulses can be frequency shifted over the mode spacing frequency by a single-sideband (SSB) optical modulator involving the amplitude and phase. Optical heterodyne measurement showed that the frequency shift of the optical pump pulses was precisely consistent with the modulation frequency applied to the SSB modulator with an accuracy of 20 kHz. The pump pulses were amplified and compressed to enhance the peak intensity. Finally, the frequency-shifted pump pulses launched into highly nonlinear fibers and generated a frequency-shifted laser comb. The precise frequency shift of pump pulses induced a simultaneous frequency shift of all modes of the laser comb. As a result, we succeeded in fast frequency sweeping of the laser comb over a full spectral range of 1080 to 1750 nm. This full-wavelength tuning implies that laser light of arbitrary and accurate wavelength can be obtained over the comb bandwidth.

    © 2019 The Japan Society of Applied Physics. We propose a discrete frequency swept laser with sufficient sweep repetition rate (SRR) of 10 kHz order for 2D single-shot pseudo comb interferometry, in which the shutter speed of 2D imaging sensor is operated at 10 μs order. The proposed light source can overcome the limited SRR in 1 kHz order of the conventional discrete frequency swept lasers, which are not adequate for 2D single-shot pseudo comb interferometry. The proposed light source with a frequency step of approximately 200 GHz and an SRR of 29 kHz is demonstrated, showing an effectiveness for the axial range expansion of 2D single-shot industrial profilometry and tomography in several tens of millimeters.

    This paper demonstrates a novel fiber optic remote sensing system based on laser powering and a liquid-crystal optical modulator that transforms electrical signal of sensors into optical with low power consumption. A basic experiment for confirming the principle was conducted using a standard communication-grade semiconductor laser with the output of less than 20 mW both for laser powering and for sensor signal transmission. The sensor signal was transferred through 5-km-long optical fiber and detected with On/Off ratio of more than 15 dB.

    本研究の目標は、一本の光ファイバに複数の光路をまとめたマルチコア光ファイバをセンシングヘッドとして用い、このファイバを取り付けた対象に加わる曲げの大きさ、および向きを同時に多点で計測可能なセンサを実現することである。一本の光ファイバで多点の曲げ計測ができるようになれば、大型構造物の状態診断、ロボットアームの曲げセンシング、医療用カテーテルの曲げ監視等、様々な分野に応用できる。光ファイバは電磁雑音の影響を受けないため、このセンサは電磁波が飛び交う製造現場や電力施設、医療におけるMRI検査の現場等、様々な環境下で使用できる。また、軽量、細径で柔軟なことから、設置対象への影響が無視できる。
    提案する曲げ計測システムは、光ファイバ回折格子をマルチコア光ファイバに加工したものをセンシングヘッドとすると共に、光信号を受光素子の二光子吸収応答を利用して処理する点に特徴がある。2021年度は、このシステムで測定の高速化を実現するため、光信号の波長掃引と強度変調の新たな制御手法の検討を進め、今後の発展のための土台を築いた。また、前年度までに行った多点3次元曲げ計測の研究成果を踏まえ、光ファイバ型の形状計測システムへの応用を実証した。光ファイバで効率よく計測できる形状は、なだらかな曲線形状のものが中心であり、当初想定した構造物診断や医療機器の曲げ計測応用に適している。今回、センシングファイバを医療用カテーテルに組み込み、曲げ形状計測への応用について実証実験を行った。マルチコア光ファイバでは複数の隣接する光路で温度の影響が同じであるため、ひずみ測定における誤差要因となる温度の影響をキャンセルし、温度無依存測定が可能なことを併せて実証した。

    本研究課題では周波数間隔の広い光周波数コムを用いて広ダイナミックレンジの計測法を開発した。光周波数コムはある一定の間隔で周波数成分を持つ光源であり、一般的な周波数間隔の狭い光周波数コムは光強度が多くの周波数成分に分散するため各周波数成分の強度が低い。周波数間隔が10 GHz以上と広い光周波数コム(マルチギガヘルツコム)は少ない周波数成分に光強度が集中するため各成分の強度が高い。これにより広いダイナミックレンジが期待できる。本研究課題ではこのようなコムを計測に利用するため、広帯域マルチギガヘルツコムの周波数可変化技術を開発し、そのようなコムを用いた計測応用を検討した。

    高分解能な分光システムは基礎科学から応用まで幅広いニーズがある。これまで分解能1MHz、計測範囲100GHzと高性能なシステムが実現されているが、光周波数標準や物理化学過程の追跡などの進展のためにさらに性能の向上が望まれてきた。申請者は課題実施までに単側波(SSB)光変調器を用いて光周波数を高精度に且つプログラマブルに制御してスペクトル計測システムの実現を図ってきた。本研究課題では、SSB光変調器スペクトル計測システムの分解能を向上し、これまでの周波数制御システムをベースにして、新たに周波数安定化した光源を導入してシステムの性能を発展させることを目的とした。
    平成19年度は、前年度までに構築した高分解スペクトル計測システムの計測範囲の広帯域化をはかった。また、光変調器を用いたシステム全体を構築して計測精度の確認を行った。具体的には5THz以上の周波数帯域を示す光周波数コムを光源として光フィルタにより個々のピークを切り出し、光変調器による高精度な光周波数掃引を行う実験系を構築した。光ファイバとインライン半透鏡を組み合せて構築した1MHz線幅の共振器の透過スペクトルを計測することで、実測値として1MHzの分解能を確認した。さらに、H^<13>C^<14>Nガス(圧力約1Tprr、長さ約80cm)を用いた繰り返し計測から1MHz以下の光周波数計測精度を得た。また、光フィルタの掃引による光周波数コムのピークを選択することで1THz以上の計測帯域を得ることを確認した。

    高フレームレート表示デバイスにはDMDを用い、光源アレイには白色LEDアレイを用いた。指向性画像間のクロストークと結像系の収差の評価から、多重度を15に決定した。実際に時間多重表示モジュールを設計・試作した。DMDをフレームレート900Hzで駆動し、60Hzのフレームレートで15個の指向性画像の表示を実現した。

    (1)コム発生系の広帯域化と深さ分解能の改善
    コム発生器の後段に試作した等価フィルタと光増幅器を設置し、コムのスペクトル帯域が約3倍広帯域化した。これを光源として光干渉計へ適用した結果、適用前に100μmだった深さ分解能は、40μm以下に改善された。次に、非共振器型周波数コム発生器とパルスシンセサイザによりジッターとチャープの少ない種パルスを生成し、これを高非線形分散シフトファイバに導入して、コム間隔の可変化と広帯域化が可能なスーパーコンティニュウム光発生を言った。2kmのときにはピークパワー5.5Wのときに今回の最大帯域幅60nmまで拡大された。また200MHzの掃引コム間隔周波数が可能であった。これにより、深さ分解能は、30μmまで改善された。

    従来の光による形状計測では、広帯域光源を用いた低コヒーレンス干渉や波長可変レーザを用いた波長走査法やコヒーレンス関数合成法のように時間平均として仮想的な周波数コム合成法も試みられている。しかし、これらは周波数間隔とコム発生法に制限が多く、ファイバセンシングのような距離計測に対しての応用に限られている。本研究では光周波数コムの周波数帯域を広帯域化して、周波数間隔数十GHzの光コムを用いた新しい表面形状法を提案し、本方式を適用して段差計測または膜厚計測を行った。
    平成16年度は光周波数コムの発生方法として、波長1550nmのレーザー光を直列につながれた2個の位相変調器に入射することで12 GHz間隔で、帯域500 GHzの周波数コムを発生した。この時、片方の位相変調器に逓倍器によって2倍波の変調信号を入力することでより広い帯域の周波数コムが得られた。この手法により0.1mmから10mに及ぶ範囲で任意の深さの表面形状を物理的な稼動部を必要せずに計測することができる。実験によって計測精度300μmが得られた。
    平成17年度はさらに高分解能な計測を実現するために,コムのピーク間隔を2倍に広げた上に共振器内に位相変調器を設置して光周波数コムの帯域を広げる方法を用いた。その結果,帯域は約10 THzとなり前年度の約20倍の帯域が得られた。ここで共振器の周波数特性を利用すると約30MHzから40MHzの範囲を掃引できることがわかった。この光源を実験に応用500μmの膜厚のガラス板を試料として繰返し計測を行った。その結果,帯域は約10 THzとなり計測の精度を19.7μmとすることに成功した。
