In this paper, a new type of aperture coupled microstrip patch antenna with tilted-beam based on the principal of the dipole yagi antenna is proposed and investigated experimentally. Its configuration is composed by 3 types of patches; reflector, driver, and director. Tilted beam patterns are effected by many parameters as those of dipole yagi antenna; sizes of the patches, gaps between the patches, characteristics of the substrates, feeding method and etc. Therefore, in this paper, the effects of varying design parameters of this antenna are studied with a goal of enhancing the gain and tilting the beams. A microtrip patch antenna with tilted beam based on performance trade-offs is designed and fabricated. Measured and simulated results for return loss and radiation patterns are presented. It has 45$^{\circ}$ tilted beam and very close to simulation beam pattern at resonant frequency, 2.58 GHz.

Measurement of concentration fields in a micro-channel is the crucial technology in the area of Lab-on-a-chip to be used for various bio-chemical applications. It is wel-known that the only possible way to measure the concentration field in the micro-channel is using micro-LIF(Laser Induced Fluorescence) method. However, an accurate concentration field at a given cross plane in a micro-channel has not been made so far due to the limit of light illumination. The present study demonstrates a novel method to provide an ultra thin laser sheet beam having 5 microns thickness by a micro focus laser line generator. Nile Blue A was used as fluorescent dye for LIF measurement. The laser sheet beam illuminates an exact plane of concentration measurement in the micro-channel to increase the signal to noise ratio and reduce the depth uncertainty considerably.

A Multiple electron beam lithography system with arrayed microcolumns has been developed for high throughput applications. The small size of the microcolumn opens the possibility for arrayed operation on a scale commensurate. The arrayed microcolumns based on of Single Column Module (SCM) concept has been fabricated and successfully demonstrated. Low energy microcolumn lithography has been operated in the energy range from 250 eV to 300 eV for the generation of nano patterns. Probe beam current at the sample was measured about >1 nA at a total beam current of $0.5\;{\mu}A$ and a working distance of $\~1\;mm$. The magnitude of probe beam current is strong enough for the low energy lithography. The thin layers of PMMA resist have been employed. The results of nano-patterning by low energy microcolumn lithography will be discussed.

In this paper, a microstrip $18\times2$ dual beam array antenna is designed at 10 GHz. The radiating element is an aperture-coupled patch, and it is analyzed by the transmission line model. The feed is a tapered parallel-series type to reduce the side lobe level. To obtain dual beam at $\pm45^{\circ}$, The difference in phase excitation between the elements is $180^{\circ}$. In conclusion, the side lobe level is 25 dB, and the beam width $8^{\circ}$with two main lobes at $\pm44.5^{\circ}$.

This paper presents the design and fabrication of a shaped-beam array antenna which will be used for a PCS basestation using structure that is coupled to a microstrip line by an aperture on the interening ground plane. The shaped-beam pattern is obtained by an antenna synthesis method. An array antenna considering the mutual coupling between array elements patches) and a feeding network are designed by CAD tools. The feeding network is designed by using the Wilkinson power divider to obtain the optimized shaped-beam. The designed results are compared with the measured data.

Due to the modem MEMS technologies, the electron lenses that are used in the microcolumn can have much smaller optical aberrations compared with conventional electron lenses for the bulky electron columns. Since the electron lens system have great effect on the performance of the microcolumn, it is important to study the dependence of image quality on the configuration of the electronic imaging system, among which the source-lens part is most sensitive. In this work, we investigated the electron beam characteristics according to the shapes of extractor and limiting aperture that are elements of the source-lens part. By analyzing the data obtained, we proposed the optimum configuration of the electron lens system.

A microstrip array antenna are designed to depend on the size of rectangular microstrip patch for the relative current destribution to be 1:2:2:1 or 1:1:2:2:1:1 using Tchebyscheff polynominals, and it consist of sharp beam pattern. Gain difference between the main lobe and sidelobe is calculated for theoritical values of 21.97 db or 29.54 db. The designed microstrip array antenna are measureed various characteristics, such as return loss, resonant frequency, radiation pattern, bandwidth, beamwidth, and agreed with each other and theoretical value. Also it is presented a process of phase variation of patch array antenna depend on relative current distribution for beam scanning.

This paper presents a multi-functional microstrip spital antenna that operates in dual frequency bands. Several types of beam shape can be selected by controlling the phase difference of two spiral arms with the phase shifters located on each feed line. It has a normal beam at the lower frequency band, and four different patterns at the higher frequency band: normal beam, conical beam and two types of tilted beam. The antenna exhibits more than 10% of bandwidth at each band. The antenna is fabricated with conductor backed electromagnetic absorber in order to attain unidirectional radiation pattern and confirmed the multi-functionality by measurements.

We have investigated the acceptance angle and imaging performance of a curved artificial compound eye (ACE), depending on the sag height of the microlens array to maximize its sensitivity to light. When the h/r values increased from 0.22 to 0.37, the acceptance angle of the curved ACE was expanded from 28.70° to 49.02°, which is an enhancement by 70.8%. With the designed optical system, it was demonstrated that a microlens located at the 23rd position from the center of the main lens could still focus an incident beam tilted at 56.35°, so that the letter F was clearly observed.
