In addition, the corrugated long period fiber gratings possess the characteristics of tunable coupling strength and resonant conditions. In 2006 and 2007, new methods of fabricating symmetric and asymmetric LPFGs by the use of photolithography were reported also by our group. However, this method might be expensive and time consuming.In this thesis, we propose a new method by the use of hot embossing and imprint lithography for fabricating corrugated LPFGs, including symmetric and asymmetric ones. In this method, we can control the asymmetry. Such a method offers the advantage of shortening processing time. The unique optical characteristics of corrugated LPFGs are also discussed in this thesis.Contentsbstract(Chinese)…………………………………………Ιbstract(English)…………………………………………ΙΙtatement of contributions………………………………ΙΙΙist of contents…………………………………………ΙVist of figures…………………………………………VΙist of symbols…………………………………………XIhapter 1 Introduction………………1-1 Introduction of conventional LPFGs…………………………………………………4-2 Prior fabrication methods of symmetric and asymmetric corrugated LPFGs of our laboratory………………………………………10-3 Prior fabrication methods of symmetric or asymmetric corrugated LPFGs in the world…………………………………………17-4 Organization of the thesis……………………………25hapter 2 Principle of operation………………………26-1 Photo-elastic theory………………………………29-2 Coupled mode theory…………………………35-3 Combination of the photo-elastic theory and the coupled mode theory for corrugated LPFGs under varying tensile strains and torsion forces………………………47-4 Optical characteristics of an asymmetric structure…………53-5 Summary……………………………………………57hapter 3 New fabrication method of corrugated LPFGs…………58-1 Introduction of hot embossing……………………………59-2 Introduction of imprint lithography…………………………61-3 Processing procedure for fabricating corrugated LPFGs………67-4 Summary………………………………………75hapter 4 Optical characteristics of corrugated LPFGs…………76-1 Optical characteristics of symmetric corrugated LPFGs under tensile strain and varying torsion…………………………………………78-2 Optical characteristics of asymmetric corrugated LPFGs under varying tensile strain and torsion……………………………………84-3 Comparison between symmetric and asymmetric corrugated LPFGs………………96-4 Summary………………………………………98hapter 5 Conclusion…………………………………99eferences……………………………………………1011620365 bytesapplication/pdfen-US長週期光纖光柵鋸齒狀非對稱熱壓技術壓印微影術long period fiber gratingscorrugatedasymmetrichot embossingimprint lithographythesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/188383/1/ntu-97-R95941051-1.pdf
