Abstract:
In my essay I show Fourier transform theory and applications in context with difraction theory especially Fraunhofer difraction. In part of the experiment, I set up an optical signal processing system. I take the Fourier transform of an input signal using a lens, filter the transform by placing various filters at the Fourier plane, and take the inverse transform. A simple optical bench consists of a laser, to produce a parallel, monochromatic beam which illuminates a specific area of the micrograph. Lens to focus the Fraunhofer diffraction pattern in the back focal plane of the lens. Mask transit contrived light or block out most of the noise in the diffraction pattern arising from image features. A reconstruction lens, placed behind the mask, refocuses the unobstructed rays and forms a filtered image. Optical diffraction provides useful information about the geometrical arrangement of subunits in the specimen. I make experiments for attestation on elementary objects and real images in mathematic program Matlab. From knowledge Fraunhofer difraction and organization of experiment I calculated size of circular object. I show practical using of Fraunhofer difraction and optical filtration. My essay give good introduction to the theory and techniques of optical filtration.

Abstract:
The main goal of this diploma thesis is to design of high-speed optical network. The first part deals with theoretical knowledge in the field of optical transmissions, especially principle of wavelength division multiplexing. Generally speaking, this part is dedicated to optical connections over long distances. It will concentrate on different types of wavelength division multiplexing, optical fiber amplifiers and other basic optical components. Then it discusses influence of negative effects acting on optical transmission and discusses how to reduce or suppress their influence. Subsequently, there is designed backbone network in the Czech Republic in OptiSystem 7.0 software and are verified some mentioned theoretical knowledge. One of chapters also presents results of measurements of real optical routes in our state. The second part of the diploma thesis moves its attention on that part of optical network, which provides data connectivity to end users, that means it is focused on optical access network. There are described the most common topologies, standards and components. Based on these findings, in the last chapter, there is worked out design of optical access network FTTH (more precisely FTTD) in the selected location. Afterwards, the design is transferred to the OptiSystem 7.0 software, where is verified its functionality.

Abstract:
This dissertation thesis deals with a long range free space optical links for communication over the distance of few tens of kilometers in the atmosphere. The problematic of the beam propagation and atmospheric effects influencing the beam and the quality of the communication protocol are discussed. The measuring link is also designed to study the parameters of the communication link work conditions. The measuring link consists of two heads. The transmitter head is designed to use two optical beams with laser diodes at the wavelength of the atmospheric windows 850 or 1550 nm and the overall power of hundredths of mW. The receiver head includes the Fressnel lens. For the detection of very weak signal, the avalanche photodiode is used. In the end of this work, due to the high power of the transmitting optical beam, the laser safety conditions are also discussed, including the deduced optical transmitters construction recommendations.

Abstract:
Several types of pupil modulation have been reported to decrease the aberration variance of the modulation-transfer-function (MTF) in aberration-tolerant hybrid optical-digital imaging systems. It is common to enforce restorability constraints on the MTF, requiring trade of aberration-tolerance and noise-gain. In this thesis, instead of optimising specific MTF characteristics, the expected imaging-error of the joint design is minimised directly. This method is used to compare commonly used phase-modulation functions. The analysis shows how optimal imaging performance is obtained using moderate phasemodulation, and more importantly, it shows the relative merits of different functions. It is shown that the technique is readily integrable with off-the-shelf optical design software, which is demonstrated with the optimisation of a wide-angle reflective system with significant off-axis aberrations. The imaging error can also be minimised for amplitudeonly masks. It is shown that phase aberrations in an imaging system can be mitigated using binary amplitude masks. This offers a low-cost, transmission-mode alternative to phase correction as used in active and adaptive optics. More efficient masks can be obtained by the optimisation of the imaging fidelity.

Abstract:
The dissertation thesis deals with a free space optical links, especially is focused directly to the transmission optical beams. The influence of environmental conditions like atmospheric turbulence, buildings movement and vibration is described. As a possibility to reduce these undesirable influences, the generation of the transmission beam by the help of the two-mode optical fiber is proposed. A possibility to drive the shape of the resulting transmission beam by means of the change of power ration of individual modes in fiber is described. The coherence features of the proposed beam are analyzed considering the possibility to reduce the influence of atmospheric turbulence. In the thesis there are introduced beam quality parameters that enable to evaluate the quality of the optical beam for the free space optical link. These parameters give the relationship between the shape of the optical beam and the power balance of the optical link and the statistical evaluation of the optical link.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates terrestrial atmospheric FSO communication systems operating under the influence of turbulence-induced scintillation, beam spreading, optical interchannel crosstalk, amplified spontaneous emission noise and pointing errors. On-off keying-non–return-to-zero (OOK-NRZ) and digital pulse position (DPPM) are the modulation schemes used for the calculations. The possibility of using sophisticated performance evaluation techniques such as moment generating function (MGF)-based Chernoff bound (CB), modified Chernoff bound (MCB) and saddlepoint approximation (SPA) for terrestrial DPPM and OOK-NRZ–based FSO communication systems employing optical amplification are investigated and compared with the conventional Gaussian approximation (GA) method. Relative to the other techniques, the MCB can be considered a safe estimation method for practical systems since it provides an upper bound upon the BER. The turbulent optically preamplified DPPM FSO receiver employing integration over a time slot and comparing the results to choose the largest slot, is seen to give better advantage (about 7 - 9 dB) compared to an equivalent employing OOK-NRZ signalling. The atmospheric turbulence-induced spreading of the beam, ASE noise, and pointing error are seen to combine in a problematic way resulting in high BERs, depending on the size of the receiver and the beam’s jitter standard deviation. Using FSO communication for the distribution links of a passive optical network-like wavelength division multiplexing access network is investigated in the presence of atmospheric turbulence, ASE noise and interchannel crosstalk. The results show that, for clear atmosphere, FSO distribution link length up to 2000 m can be reliably used (depending on turbulence strength) to achieve human eye safety and high capacity access networks. Also, error floors occur due to turbulence accentuated crosstalk effect for the cases of (i) signal turbulent, but crosstalk not and (ii) crosstalk turbulent, but signal not.

Full text
Abstract:
Optical approaches to vector-matrix multiplication have been proposed for 25 years.1 However the development of a versatile, accurate implementation has been lagging. The free space architecture used by Goodman, et al.2 suffered the disadvantage of a fixed photographic matrix mask. Some of these disadvantages were eliminated through the use of acousto-optic2 or electro-optic3 devices. The accuracy of free space systems is critically dependent on the quality of large optics. Alignment, stray light, and temperature fluctuations are difficult to control. The use of fiber optics using a lattice structure approach for vector-matrix multiplication was introduced in 1985.4 These operations were limited to Toeplitz matrices, and mechanical adjustments were necessary to change the matrix elements. Other approaches have included the use of photorefractive media5 and optical implementations of special arithmetics.6

Full text
Abstract:
Optical glasses have traditionally been selected for use in optical systems based solely on their optical properties, specifically refractive index and dispersion. Ideally, one would like to select an optical material with desired optical properties and the knowledge that it can be easily fabricated using conventional or advanced fabrication techniques with good figure accuracy, low microroughness and subsurface damage. These three criteria have been identified by researcher’s at the Center for Optics Manufacturing (COM) as a benchmark to assess workpiece quality following fabrication using the Opticam family of machine tools. The commercially available machine tools developed at COM with the American Precision Optics Manufacturer’s Association (APOMA), are currently used in industry to fabricate a wide range of optical materials in spherical, aspheric, plano and most recently micro geometries. Research in the science of optic manufacturing has addressed numerous material and tool related questions, including why under identical machine and tool processing conditions, some glass types grind to a high quality finish, while others reproducibly yield high roughness, high damage surfaces. It is our response to this question which forms the basis of this paper.

Abstract:
In erasable optical storage, the requirements for writing, read and erasure processes to the distribution of the optical field and the time-space distribution of the temperature field induced by pulse laser are harsher than those in nonerasable optical storage. So, it is highly necessary to consider about parameters in optics, thermology and structure, latent heat effect (phase-change model), magneto-optic Kerr and Faraday effects (magneto-optic model), etc. more carefully and all-sidedly in designing the distributions of optical field and heat field.

The use of optical interconnects for backplane and bus applications in multiboard processor systems has been considered by a number of investigators.1,2 However, most of these analyses have not evaluated the impact of optics on specific bus configurations. In this presentation we evaluate the performance of optics in a Futurebus+backplane, and show that considerable reduction in data transfer delay can be obtained using existing electro-optic interface elements in an optical backplane. The significance of this result is that a substantial improvement of existing bus architectures can be achieved using a straight forward substitution of electro-optic components for electrical transceivers.

Abstract:
The optical fabrication time associated with an optical component’s production most often dictates its final cost. Historically, art-driven conventional fabrication techniques used to produce infrared (IR) optics were labor-intensive, making the costs of such components prohibitive. Alternate, lower cost, fabrication technologies based on automated machine systems such as diamond turning, have been shown to be effective in generating high quality optical surfaces for some non-brittle materials. During the past year, fabrication techniques employing Opticam microgrinding technology have been demonstrated for glass and crystalline visible and infrared optical materials resulting in optical surfaces exhibiting superb figure, low roughness and subsurface damage.

Lithium tantalate is a promising substrate for electro-optical integrated-optical devices because of its low sensitivity to optical damage and its high electro-optic coefficient. The annealed proton-exchange technique[1] (APE), which includes an additional annealing step after proton-exchange, is being established as a reliable method for producing stable, low-loss devices with little reduction in the electro-optic constant (from the bulk value). For the optimal design and fabrication of APE waveguide devices, accurate characterization data are necessary.

Abstract:
In order to provide new services to the subscriber, some sophisticated system configurations based on a full fiber-optic access network such as Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH)1) are required. In such systems, an optical network unit (ONU) working as a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) transmitter/receiver module will become one of the key elements. To make the FTTH economically feasible, a low cost WDM module suitably designed for mass production has to be developed. Although several researches have been carried out in effort to achieve such cost-effective modules2,3), further investigations and new concepts are necessary to completely establish the optical subscriber network technology. This goal might be achieved with modules that properly combine different technologies. We introduce two of them: 1) dielectric multilayered filters, and 2) stacked planar optics4). With advances in thin-film technology, thin-film multilayered filters have been attracting significant interest for application to optical communication systems due to their high design flexibility and excellent optical performance. These filters can play a very important role in WDM modules. The stacked planar optics has been proposed to overcome the problem with alignment providing a passive alignment and simplification of both fabrication and assembly processes of optical devices. With this technology, it is also possible to realize very compact microoptics devices. Thus, low cost ONU modules suitable for mass production are expected.
