    Abstract: PURPOSE:To miniaturize an element by forming gratings having periodical structures, whose phases are shifted from each other by 180 deg. in the light propagation direction, on first and second cores respectively. CONSTITUTION:A grating 6 as a periodical ruggedness on a core 3 is formed besides two asymmetrical cores 2 and 3 and a grating 4. Periodical structures of the grating 4 formed on the first core 2 and the grating 6 formed on the second core 3 in the coupling part have phases shifted from each other by 180 deg. in the light propagation direction. Thus, a coupling coefficient is increased, and the length of the coupling part 5 is shortened to a half conventional length, and the element is miniaturized.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To permit the use of quartz glass for a refractive index modulation type grating by vitrifying porous glass deposited on a substrate by adding a dopant for increasing the refractive index periodically. CONSTITUTION:After forming a porous glass layer 2 on the surface of a quartz substrate 1 and impregnating the porous glass layer 2 with a resist 3 dropped thereon, the porous glass layer 2 is heated. Then, interference fringes are formed on the porous glass layer by generating interference between two fluxes of obliquely irradiated He-Ne laser light 4. Porous glass parts 5 from which uncrosslinked resists 3 are removed with a period of an order of the wavelength of the laser light 4 are prepd. by developing and drying the porous glass layer. When a dopant soln. 7 for increasing the refractive index, such as Ge(OCH3)4 + H2O + CH3OH, etc., is dropped thereon, the soln. is impregnated into the porous glass parts 5, forming porous glass parts 8 contg. GeO2. By heating the porous glass together with the substrate 1 at a specified temp. in O2 atmosphere, the porous glass parts 6 and the porous glass parts 8 contg. GeO2 are transformed to vitreous glass. Thus, a grating 9 having refractive index variable with a period of an order of the wavelength of the laser light is formed on the substrate 1.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To detect a focus position by detecting the focus position by utilizing the fact that the difference signal output of a split photodetector is inverted in phase at a focusing point where a reflector is positioned. CONSTITUTION:Divergent light from a laser 1 is converged on the reflecting surface 4 of an optical disk, etc., through a lens 3 and reflected light from the reflecting surface 4 is passed through the lens 3 again and returned to a BDLD 1 which operates as the split detector. The direction of the peak intensity of divergent light from the BDLD 1 is deflected periodically by flowing a high frequency current to divided electrodes. Divergent light 2' whose direction of the peak internsity is deflected periodically is converged on the reflecting surface 4 through the lens 3. In this case, the converged spot 2'' on the reflecting surface 4 is fixed regardless of the deflection when the reflecting surface 4 is positioned at the focusing position (b), but in phase and opposite in phase on the basis of the deflection direction when the reflecting surface 4 is at positions (a) and (c) before and behind the focusing point. Consequently, which side of the focusing point the spot is defocused to is detected from the phase of the difference signal.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To decide whether the polarity is positive or negative even when the range of a phase difference is expanded greatly by obtaining an envelope signal on which an interference signal of interference light consisting of plural known wavelength components is superposed. CONSTITUTION:The intensity of output interference light when coherent light beams which have wavelength lambda and are mutually phi out of phase is expressed as 2(1+cosphii). When this interference light output is superposed as to i=1, 2 and spectrum component of lambda1 and lambda2 are detected at the same time, the sum IT is as shown by an equation 1 and the difference is as shown by an equation 2; when phi1 and phi2 vary uniformly, the IT and ID draw what is called 'beat waveform'. Then, envelope outputs IHC and IHS of the equations 1 and 2 are as shown by an expression 3. A two-wavelength system using the equation 1 is judged within a range 0

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To enable optical recording media to be mounted high in density by a method wherein a diamond single crystal is made to serve as an active layer, and a clad layer is formed of cubic boron nitride(cBN) single crystal. CONSTITUTION:A P-type cBN layer 1, a diamond layer 2, and an N-type cBN layer 3 are successively laminated on a substrate 4, and a double hetero-junction is formed by the junction of the layers 1, 2, and 3. The diamond layer 2 is functions as a light emitting region or an active layer. The cBN layers 1 and 3 are made to serve as clad layer. As the band gap of cBN is larger than that of diamond, a potential barrier induced at a junction interface between them prevents thermal diffusion from the active layer 3 to the cBN clad layers 1 and 3. Light emitted inside the diamond active layer 2 is totally reflected by the junction interface of the layer 2 with the clad layers 1 and 3, so that the diamond layer 2 is small in emission loss. By this setup, optical recording media can be mounted high in density.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To improve reliability and to miniaturize the element by forming the projecting parts of gratings to the refractive index larger than the refractive index of a core and forming a clad having the refractive index smaller than the refractive index of the core to the part above the ruggedness of the grating. CONSTITUTION:The core 2 consisting of SiO2-TiO2 glass is formed on a quartz substrate 1. The projecting parts 5 of the grating 3 consisting of Nb2O2 having the refractive index nf are formed on the core 2 consisting of the SiO2-TiO2 glass and the clad 4 consisting of SiO2 glass having the refractive index nc smaller than nf is formed thereon. The change in the element characteristics by sticking of dirt, water drops, etc., is eliminated with the flush type and the coefft. of coupling is increased in this way. The element is thus miniaturized.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain high sensitivity by a simple constitution by reflecting an emitted light from a semiconductor laser by a specular surface formed integrally in an actuator movable part and converting it to a return light to the semiconductor laser itself. CONSTITUTION:The front output light of a semiconductor laser 6 forms a focus in the vicinity of the reflecting mirror M of an actuator movable part 1 by optical system 8, 9. When an acceleration input is applied, and the actuator movable part 1 is deflected, the quantity of a return light to the semiconductor laser 6 is varied, and the output of the semiconductor laser 6 is varied greatly by a self-coupling effect. This output of the semiconductor laser 6 is detected by a photodetector 7, and fed back to the torquer coil 2 of the actuator movable part through a servo-amplifier. By detecting this feedback current, the acceleration input can be known.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To decrease a loss and to improve reliability by providing a groove part to a silicon substrate and forming a space between a light guide and optical fiber joint part, thereby stably maintaining the coupling part. CONSTITUTION:The optical fiber 3 guided by fiber guides 2, 2' and the light guide 1 are supported by the silicon substrate 1 and the groove 6 is provided to the substrate 4 near the joint part of the fiber 3 and the light guide 1. The space is formed in the joint part so that the dealing with the expansion of the adhesive agent by a change of the ambient temp. is improved; in addition, the self-aligning effect by the surface tension at the time of welding and connecting by using a laser acts satisfactorily. As a result, the coupling part is stably maintained and the loss is suppressed. The reliability is thus enhanced.
