(self-focusing)을 이용한 커렌즈 모드록킹(Kerr-lens mode-locking； KLM) 방법을 이용하면 간단한 구조를 갖는 공진기로 100 펨토초(femto=10-13) 미만의 레이저 펄스를 생성할 수 있다. KLM 티타늄사파이어(Ti：sapphire) 레이저의 발달로 10 펨토초 영역의 레이저 펄스를 간단하게 생성할 수 있게 되었으며 특히, 넓은 스펙트럼 폭을 가지는 처프거울(chirped mirror)의 사용과 정확한 분산의 보정을 통한 5 펨토초(800 nm 파장의 두 주기에 해당) 영역의 레이저 펄스 생성도 보고되고 있다.

We investigate an optical technique for beam shaping and optical amplification of a pulsed laser diode without variation of its original properties, such as repetition rate and pulse duration. The horizontal and longitudinal sizes of the pulsed laser diode are 300 and $2{\mu}m$, respectively, and its output power is $1.1mW/cm^2$. The multimodal and elliptical pulse shape of the laser diode is converted to the single-modal and Gaussian pulse shape by using a lensed optical fiber. Since the single-modal lensed fiber coupling from the multimodal pulsed laser diode degrades the output power severely, the output power of the pulsed laser diode is dramatically enhanced by using an optical amplification method based on master oscillated power amplification (MOPA). The pulse qualities of the laser diode are not changed after amplifying the pulse power and the output power was finally measured to be $29mW/cm^2$.

A new dimension measuring method for the measurement of diameter of an object has been developed using laser triangulation. The 3D data of an object was calculated from the 2 dimensional image information obtained by the laser stripe using the laser triangulation. The system that use existing theory can measure the diameter of hole not only in a normal plane but also ill an incline plane. However, in the existing theory, since the lens with fixed feral length was used, the area of measurement was fixed. The simplest way to solve this problem is to change distance between a CCD camera and object. Other way is to use a zoom lens having variable focal length. In this paper, the zoom lens with variable focal length was used. Therefore, we ran experiment with magnification that is optimized according to size of object using zoom lens with variable focal length.

Laser Lift-Off (LLO) is a process that removes a GaN or AIN thin layer from a sapphire wafer to manufacture vertical-type LEDs. It consists of a light source, an attenuator, a mask, a projection lens and a beam homogenizer. In this paper, we design an attenuator and a projection lens. We use the 'ZEMAX' optical design software for analysis of depth of focus and for a projection lens design which makes $7{\times}7mm^2$ beam size by projecting a beam on a wafer. Using the 'LightTools' lighting design software, we analyze the size and uniformity of the beam projected by the projection lens on the wafer. The performance analysis found that the size of the square-shaped beam is $6.97{\times}6.96mm^2$, with 91.8 % uniformity and ${\pm}30{\mu}m$ focus depth. In addition, this study performs dielectric coating using the 'Essential Macleod' to increase the transmittance of an attenuator. As a result, for 23 layers of thin films, the transmittance total has 10-96% at angle of incidence $45-60^{\circ}$ in S-polarization.

LAM (Laser-Assisted Machining) is an effective method for processing difficult-to-cut workpieces. The focal length of a LAM system is changed by the change of the workpiece shape during laser preheating; this problem is solved by changing the lens of the laser module. Linear- and rotary-type lens changers were developed to change the laser lens of a LAM system. The linear-type lens changer is operated by a motor with a ball-screw, and the rotary type is operated by a stepping motor. The natural frequency and structural stability of the laser lens changers were confirmed by using a finite element analysis; in addition, the functions of the lens changers were verified by measuring the iterative accuracy. The measured results show that the rotary-type lens changer is more accurate than the linear-type changer.

We generated a diffraction free beam from Nd:YAG laser with an NBUR (negative branch unstable ring) resonator. The field inside the resonator had a plane wavefront and a homogeneous intensity distribution and the output beam through a scraper mirror of an annular type was used as a source. The outpur beam had an inner radius of 2.5 mm and an outer radius of 5 mm. In this experiment, we used a Fourier transformation lens with the focal length of 5 m to observe the far-field pattern. The lens was placed at a distance of the focal length from the scraper mirror and we found that the beam did not show any noticable diffraction over the distance of 13 m from the lens.

레이저 매질은 흡수된 여기 파워에 의해 매질 내부에서 열이 발생하고, 매질 표면을 따라 냉각이 진행되어 매질 내부에서는 불균일한 온도분포가 발생하게 된다.$^{[1,2]}$ 레이저 매질의 굴절율은 온도에 따라 변하기 때문에 열복굴절과 열렌즈 현상이 일어나 레이저 출력의 손실 및 빔질의 저하를 초래하게 된다.$^{[1,3]}$ 선형 편광 광선을 이용하는 고체 레이저는 레이저 매질을 브루스터각으로 가공하거나 공진기 내부쉐 브루스터판을 삽입한다. 따라서, 선형 편광 광선은 열복굴절에 의한 위상 지연으로 타원 편광이 되고, 타원 편광 광선의 s-성분은 브루스터판에서 반사를 일으키게 되어 레이저 출력의 손실을 일으키게 되므로 레이저 공진기를 구성하는데 있어서 정량적인 열영향의 해석이 필요하다$^{[1,2,5]}$ 열영향에 의한 위상 지연은 방위각 방향과 반지름 방향으로 각각 $\Delta$ $n_{\Phi}$, $\Delta$ $n_{r}$ 만큼 생긴 굴절율의 차이로 발생하고 다음과 같이 표현할 수 있다.$^{[1]}$ (중략)이 표현할 수 있다.$^{[1]}$ (중략)
