Optical Wireless Power Transmission (OWPT) is one of the technologies of wireless energy transfer. OWPT uses optical light source as an energy emitter, and solar panel as an energy detector. With current trends of availability of large laser power source at lower prices and sophisticated image recognition technologies, OWPT increases its attention. In order to obtain high energy transfer efficiency in OWPT, precise control of laser illuminating position is required. We apply co-axially aligned optical system of imaging function and laser beam steering function to satisfy the requirement. At the presentation, we will introduce our approach of OWPT.
A novel approach to three-dimensionally (3-D) integrate nanophotonic and electronic devices in silicon is described. The method is based on the SIMOX (Separation by Implantation of OXygen) process, to realize three-dimensionally (3-D) integrated devices in a monolithic fashion. In this approach, photonic and electronic devices are realized on vertically stacked layers of silicon, separated from each other by a dielectric layer of silicon dioxide formed through the process of oxygen implantation. Opto-electronic integration is demonstrated by realizing photonic circuits in a subterranean silicon layer and Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) transistors on a surface layer of silicon. Optical and electronic functionalities are thus separated into two different layers of silicon, paving the way towards dense three-dimensional opto-electronic integration. This has the significant advantage that photonic devices do not consume any of the expensive silicon real estate required for CMOS circuitry. The versatility of the technique of SIMOX 3-D sculpting in obtaining complex optical circuitry is also demonstrated by synthesizing a cascaded microdisk structure that may be utilized to tailor the passband characteristics of optical filters.

We developed a 1.5-Numerical-Aperture optical setup using a GaN blue-violet laser diode. We used a 1.0 mm-diameter super-hemispherical solid immersion lens, and optimized a phase-change disk structure including the cover layer by the method of MTF simulation. The disk surface was polished by tape burnishing technique. An eye-pattern of (1-7)-coded data at the linear density of 80 nm/bit was demonstrated on the phase-change disk below a 50 nm gap height, which was realized through our air-gap servo mechanism.
Recently, solid immersion lenses (SILs) have yielded a great interest in near-field optical data storage. However, convincing data on areal recording density have yet to be reported. The difficulty is attributed to the fact that an air-bearing slider needs to be kept optically contacted and also that a tiny SIL is vulnerable to aberrations caused by an air gap between a lens and a disk. The air-bearing system cannot easily achieve the condition above because its linear velocity changes the air gap. We have developed a new SIL device mounted on an actuator, which allows the air gap to be varied arbitrarily and enables optical contact independent of disk rotation. The obtained eyepattern of (l,7)-coded data on a phase-change disk demonstrates near-field recording over 1.2- numerical-aperture (NA).
