Tolerance analysis is one of the most important processes to improve the image quality of products. High resolution camera module for mobile phones needs precision assembly technology since the module becomes smaller and thinner. This paper will focus on the unit tolerance and the assembly tolerance which can affect the performance of the module. Lens shading and relative illumination were used to evaluate the optical axis scatter for each component on camera and estimate the assembly yield rate based on the evaluation result. A program was developed to analyze the impact on optical axis by each module, then to optimize the dimensions and tolerance for reducing the scatter of optical axis assembly. Through the simulation, though a rate of relative illumination was declined in where optical axis is displaced $100{\mu}m$ from sensor center, MTF performance is not influenced by increasing in optical axis displacement. It was seen that assembly yield was improved in result of simulation after correcting optical axis tolerance.

We propose the development and test result of new optical axis alignment system for the interchangeable F/8 secondary mirror of the BOAO 1.8m telescope system. Since the original system was not equipped with a suitable optical alignment facility, the whole alignment process was performed by hand. It was necessary at least three persons working more than 2 nights and the altitude of the telescope could not exceed 10 degrees, in such altitude the alignment quality was not so good by atmospheric effect. The new system adopts position readable motorized system and remote control operation by the computer installed in observation room, which reduces the number of workers to only one and eliminates the altitude restriction. The defocused CCD image pair obtained at higher altitude makes the aberration estimates more accurately and the number of required alignment loops is reduced from 10 to 4. The system has been installed on September 1, and performed alignment three times. The test results show that the system is stable and accurate, gives better optical performance of the telescope under F/8 focus. We hope to emphasize the fact that the new system will increase observation time of the telescope by about 20 nights per year assuming one alignment in every month.

Spatial homogenity of Mg (4 mole %):LiNb$O_3$ is investigated by studying the characteristic of Second Harmonic Generation in Mg:LiNb$O_3$ as a function of temperature and DC Electric Field. It is found that the temperaturs at which the intensity of the second harmonic is reduced to the first zero from its maximum for the phase matching condition is shifted linearly to the strength of DC Electric field applied to optic axis of Mg:LiNb$O_3$. From these results, the electro-optic coefficient of Mg:LiNb$O_3$ is estimated to be higher than that of Congruent LiNb$O_3$ by a factor of 1.5.

인간의 안구는 색과 모양을 식별하는 데에 관여하는 원추 세포와 물체의 명암을 구분하는 간상 세포로 구성되어지는 시세포를 가진다. 망막 위에 분포되어 있는 시세포들은 시축을 중심으로 각기 다른 밀도로 분포 되어 있다. 특히 광축과 만나는 중심 지역은 Fovea라고 하는 직경 1mm 정도의 작은 우물을 이루고 있는데 원추 세포들이 고해상도로 분포되어 있고 시신경과 일대일로 연결되어 있어 시각 처리의 중심이 된다. 특히, 글자나 물체를 인식하기 위해 인간은 대상물을 응시하여 대상물의 영상이 Fovca영역에 맺히도록 추적 운동을 계속한다. 본 논문에서는 인간의 눈과 유사한 망막 모델의 하나인 Log-polar Image를 이용한 물체 인식을 위해 물체를 Log-polar Image Plane의 중심에 위치시키기 위한 모멘텀(Momentum)기반 정합 알고리즘(Alignment Algorithm)을 제시한다. 이는 눈동자 운동이 가능한 능동형 시각 장치의 Tracking 및 Pursuit 동작 중에 밭생하는 추적 오차를 보상함으로써 운동 중에도 효과적인 물체 인식이 가능하게 한다. 또한, 물체를 Log-polar Image Plane의 중심에 위치시킴으로써 물체의 위치 이동, 회전이동 그리고 크기 변화에 무관하게 물체를 인식한 수 있음을 제시한다.

Explicit expressions are derived for the effective reflection coefficients of obliquely incident light on a multilayered substrate coated with two uniaxially anisotropic films. Based on these reflection coefficients, ellipsometric constants are obtained as function of the tilt and azimuthal angles of the optical axes of the uniaxial films. Explicit expressions are provided, which can be used to separate the effects of surface anisotropy for anisotropic film from that of its bulk anisotropy, so that these expressions may be utilized in characterizing the surface anisotropy of alignment layers.

Optical add/drop multiplexers (OADMs), one of the new network elements, will play a key role enabling greater connectivity and flexibility in the dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) networks. The importance of OADMs is that they allow the optical network to be local transmitting/extraction on a wavelength-by-wavelength basis to optimize traffic, efficient network utilization, network growth, and to enhance network flexibility. Also, the automatic assembly system of micro optical filters and fibers is a key technology in the development of optical modules with high functionality. Recently, one of remarkable tends in the development of optical communication industry is the miniaturization and integration of products. In this research, we have developed a system capable of automatic alignment of a film filter and a lensed fiber in order to improve the speed and losses in the optical fiber to filter alignment of optical modules. Using the developed automatic alignment system and silicon optical benches, we have fabricated the micro OADM and measured the insertion loss and aging effect.

We proposed the eye gaze tracking system under natural head movements, which consists of one narrow-view field CCD camera, two mirrors which of reflective angles are controlled and active infra-red illumination. The mirrors' angles were computed by geometric and linear algebra calculations to put the pupil images on the optical axis of the camera. Our system allowed the subjects head to move 90cm horizontally and 60cm vertically, and the spatial resolutions were about 6$^{\circ}$ and 7$^{\circ}$, respectively. The frame rate for estimating gaze points was 10～15 frames/sec. As gaze mapping function, we used the hierarchical generalized regression neural networks (H-GRNN) based on the two-pass GRNN. The gaze accuracy showed 94% by H-GRNN improved 9% more than 85% of GRNN even though the head or face was a little rotated. Our system does not have a high spatial gaze resolution, but it allows natural head movements, robust and accurate gaze tracking. In addition there is no need to re-calibrate the system when subjects are changed.

We present a novel concept of a phase-shifting diffraction-grating interferometer, which is intended for the optical testing of concave mirrors with high precision. The interferometer is configured with a single reflective diffraction grating, which performs multiple functions of beam splitting, beam recombination, and phase shifting. The reference and test wave fronts are generated by means of reflective diffraction at the focal plane of a microscope objective with large numerical aperture, which allows testing fast mirrors with low f-numbers. The fiber-optic confocal design is adopted for the microscope objective to focus a converging beam on the diffractive grating, which greatly reduces the alignment error between the focusing optics and the diffraction grating. Translating the grating provides phase shifting, which allows measurement of the figure errors of the test mirror to nanometer accuracy.

GMT(Giant Magellan Telescope)는 25.4m의 주경과 3.2m의 부경으로 이루어진 거대망원경이다. 3.2m의 부경은 빠른 tip-tilt로 망원경을 제어하는 Fast Steering Mirror(FSM)와 적응광학계로 이루어진 Adaptive Secondary Mirror (ASM)로 구분된다. 한국천문연구원은 국내외 협력기관들과 함께 부경 FSM의 시험모델개발을 수행하고 있다. 부경은 1.06m의 반사경 일곱 개로 이루어져 있는데, 한 개의 광축 반사경 주위로 여섯개의 비축 반사경이 둘러싸여서 하나의 3.2m 반사경과 같은 기능을 하고 있다. 비축 비구면 반사경에 대한 시험모델의 반사면을 가공한 결과 표면가공 정밀도가 11.7nm rms의 정밀도를 갖는 반사경을 가공하였다(target : <20nm rms). 또한 test-bed를 제작하여 tip-tilt 정밀도를 제어한 결과 성능요구 조건 값인 0.03arcsec 제어에 성공하였고, 더 나아가 0.01arcsec의 tip-tilt 제어도 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

일반적으로 사용되는 소구경 망원경은 경통에 의한 차폐로 인해 내부 구조를 보기 쉽지 않으므로, 망원경 광학계를 이해하기에는 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 최소한의 배플 만을 사용하여 경통이 없는 구조의 개방형 망원경을 설계 및 제작하였다. 개발된 변환식 반사망원경 키트(TRT Kit, Transformable Reflecting Telescope Kit)는 부경 모듈을 교체하는 방식만으로 뉴턴식 망원경(Newtonian Telescope), 카세그레인식 망원경(Cassegrain Telescope), 그리고 그레고리식 망원경(Gregorian Telescope)으로 변형하는 것이 가능하다. 주경, 부경을 비롯한 망원경의 모든 부분은 사용자가 직접조립할 수 있도록 모듈화(Modularization) 하였다. 또한 부경에 부착된 슬라이딩 장치 및 리니어 스테이지(Linear Stage)는 망원경의 초점을 정밀하게 맞출 수 있도록 설계하였다. TRT Kit를 이용하여 학생들은 세 가지 형태의 망원경 광학계를 직접 조립하고 그 구조 및 성능을 비교해 볼 수 있으며, 광축 정렬, 정밀 초점 조절 과정을 통해 기본적인 광학계의 원리를 이해 할 수 있다.
