Abstract

Directional couplers are widely used as passive and active optical devices in fibre and integrated optics, and form the basis of components such as switches, modulators and wavelength filters. They consist of two closely-spaced parallel waveguides, whose separation is sufficiently small that power may be transferred between the modes propagating in the two guides through an interaction involving their evanescent fields. In this paper results are presented for a range of near infrared single mode silica directional couplers fabricated by electron beam irradiation. The effects of over cladding layers will be highlighted. Changes on coupling coefficient due to different cladding refractive indexes will also be examined. The coupled mode theory will be employed to fit the experimental results with prediction by theory. It is found that over cladding layer alters the transmission characteristics of silica directional couplers.

Abstract

Optical directional couplers fabricated using planar light wave circuit (PLC) technology are versatile tools in integrated photonics devices. They have the advantages of small size, high consistency, ability for high volume production, and excellent possibility to be integrated with electronics circuits. Optical waveguide couplers are mainly utilized as power dividers, optical switches, and wavelength division multiplexers/de-multiplexers (WDM). A number of methods have been used to analyze directional couplers, such as coupled mode theory (CMT), the beam propagation method (BPM), the method of lines (MoL), finite-difference methods (FDM), and finite element methods (FEM). Among these numerical approaches, MoL is the simplest method to analyze mode propagation inside directional couplers because it has the advantages of very fast convergence and accurate solutions for one-dimensional structures. The objective of this study was to analyze the propagation of TE modes in optical directional couplers by using MoL. The parameters used, i.e. waveguide width, refractive index, and wavelength, were taken from the characteristics of silica-on-silicon directional couplers that were used in fabrication. MoL is considered a special finite-difference method, which discretizes a one- or two-dimensional wave equation in the transverse direction and uses an analytical solution for the propagation directions. Basically, MoL is a semi analytical numerical method with the advantages of numerical stability, computational efficiency, and calculation time reduction. Further, we explored the possibility of using directional couplers as optical switching devices.

Abstract

Abstract – Hydraulics machines are important parts in semi solid metal forging machine, to form the workpiece by pressing. Semi-solid machine positioning movements are required to have a high accuration, to get the high accuracy of the movement system a servo hydraulic control is added ,which consist of servo valve and digital controller (Aerotech A3200). The digital control parameters (kpos, kp, ki) are used to enhanced the hydraulic movement. To get the effect of the control parameters of the plant (hydraulic servo), a mathematical approach is used for simulation in matlab. In this research, study was done by optimize kp and ki parameters of the control system. Prior to the optimization, simulation was conducted using matlab. Where the simulated testing is using the input unit (step) and frequency (bode) to predict the circumstances that occurred to the plan which is then compared with experimental results. a step response was simulated in matlab to analyze the error of the hydraulic system. Having obtained the minimum error from adjusting kp and ki in matlab, a trend graphic error was used as a guideline to adjust parameter in actual system. The last step is to implement and adjust kp/ki in actual system and measure the real position error.Based on this research, it concluded that the error before adjustment are 0.6118-1.2642 mm for autotune  parameter kp 3500000, ki 50000. The result of average error in this experiments after adjustment are 0.017-0.166 mm for parameter kp 250000, ki 10000. Keywords - Hydraulic Servo, Aerotech A3200, Step response, Bode plot, Semi-Solid Machine.
