  • Publication number: 20200203925
    Abstract: A distributed feedback (DFB) semiconductor laser device includes an active layer, a first grating layer and a second grating. The first grating layer has a first grating structure with a first grating period. The second grating layer has a second grating structure with a second grating period substantially different from the first grating period. The active layer, the first grating layer and the second grating layer are vertically stacked, and the equivalent grating period of the DFB semiconductor laser device is (2×P1×P2)/(P1+P2), where P1 and P2 respectively represent the first grating period and the second grating period.

  • Publication number: 20200116472
    Abstract: An optical displacement sensing system is provided. With configuration of an optical sensor disposed on a displacement platform and in cooperation with a broadband light source and an optical spectrum analyzer, when the displacement platform moves, the waveguide grating of the optical sensor is resonated and the reflected light provided with a resonance wavelength is formed. The waveguide grating has the plurality of grating periods, and when the displacement platform moves to a different position to make the broadband light source correspond to a different grating period, the position can correspond to the different resonance wavelength. Therefore, according to the aforementioned configuration, the position is determined according to the different resonance wavelength, instead of using an optical encoder; furthermore, the micrometer-scale or nanometer-scale displacement detection is achieved.

  • Publication number: 20190116441
    Abstract: A sound reproducing method used in sound reproducing apparatus that includes the steps outlined below is provided. A sound signal is generated with a 3D sound generating process according to listener data and sound data. Pre-recorded sound data is retrieved to further generate a target distance function corresponding to the sound distance. A fixed head-related transfer function corresponding to a fixed distance is retrieved. A target head-related transfer function corresponding to the sound distance is generated by adapting the target distance function to the fixed head-related transfer function. The sound signal is reproduced by multiplying the sound signal by the target head-related transfer function.
