    Abstract: A laser light beam generating apparatus includes at least one light beam source, first and second reflectors, a non-linear optical crystal element and an actuator. The light beam source emits a light beam. The non-linear optical crystal element is provided between the first reflector and the second reflector. A light beam emitted from the light beam source is incident on the non-linear optical crystal element through the first reflector. The actuator actuates at least one of the first and second reflectors along an optical axis of the light beam emitted from the light beam source.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a light source device as an MOPA (master oscillator power amplifier) which includes an MLLD (mode locked laser diode) and an SOA (semiconductor optical amplifier), causes an exit beam to have only one peak, and suppresses variations in the peak position.SOLUTION: The width in a lateral direction of a waveguide on an incident side of an SOA 14 is set such that a horizontal lateral mode of the waveguide on the incident side of the SOA becomes multiple modes (so as to be larger than the width in a lateral direction of a waveguide on an exit side of an MLLD). A magnification of incident light from the MLLD 10 to the SOA is converted such that a basic mode (single mode) is selectively excited in optical coupling on the incident side of the SOA. The light confinement in the basic mode defined by the width of the waveguide on the incident side of the SOA is increased. It is ensured that only one peak appears in the light intensity distribution of the SOA output light. The magnification of incident light from the MLLD is converted (the spot size of incident light to the SOA is enlarged). The light density in the waveguide of the SOA is reduced. Variations in the peak of the exit beam are suppressed.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To overcome the problem that in the case of a fiber for laser amplification comprising a light-propagating medium, in particular, a double clad fiber having a primary clad disposed around the core and further having a low refractive index region disposed as extended around the clad and in the longitudinal direction of the fiber, for example, a so-called holey fiber having holes as the low refractive index region, when the end face of the fiber is subjected to optical polishing and then to heat treatment, the end face of the low refractive index region is exposed to an external fluid, which induces changes in the refractive index of the low refractive index region (for example, if the low refractive index region is composed of holes, water flows into or is adsorbed to the holes by a capillary phenomenon and badly deteriorates the amplification characteristics of the fiber). SOLUTION: After the end face of the low refractive index region is sealed, the fiber is cut and polished to manufacture a fiber. By polishing, the end face of the fiber makes a given angle with respect to the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fiber. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a photonic crystal fiber designed to solve various problems including infiltration of impurities by sealing the end face at the end of a fiber, and also to provide an optical controller, a projector, and a method for manufacturing the photonic crystal fiber. SOLUTION: The photonic crystal fiber is constituted such that a large number of holes are arranged with a regular cross sectional structure in the longitudinal direction of the fiber, that the end face of the fiber is fusion-sealed with a fusion material composed of glass having a lower softening temperature than that of the optical propagation material of the fiber, and that the fiber is connected to a ferrule with this fusion material. Consequently, degradation of optical characteristics can be avoided such as a large refractive index difference between the optical propagation medium and the holes, a high optical transmission efficiency and numerical aperture. In addition, entry of foreign matters into the holes can be avoided, as can a burning accident incidental to deviation of the ferrule. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
