파장분할다중 방식에서 필요로 하는 격자들 간의 격자주기 차이는 1nm이하를 요구한다. 따라서, 하나의 위상형 마스크로 서로 다른 주기의 격자를 동시에 제작하려면 하나의 위상형 마스크 패턴들 간에도 nm 정도의 차이를 갖는 미세한 패턴이 있어야 한다. 그러나, 일반적으로 마스크를 제작하는데 이용되는 장비인 전자빔 묘화장치(electron-beam lithographic system)의 분해능은 수십 nm이므로, 그러한 nm 정도의 정확도로서 조합된 마스크 패턴들을 만드는 것은 매우 어렵다. (중략)

In this paper, the analyses of the stress disturibution and frequency characteristics of silicon microstructures for an accelerometer were performed using the general purpose finite element simulation program, ANSYS. From the analyses, we determined the parameter values of a new 6-beam piezoresistive accelerometer applicable to the accelerometer's specification in airbag system of automobile. Then, the mass paddle radius, beam length, beam width, and beam thickness of the designed accelerometer were$500{\mu}m$, $350{\mu}m$, $100{\mu}m$, and $5{\mu}m$, respectively and two different seismic masses with 0.4 mg and 0.8 mg were defined on the same sensor structure. The designed 6- beam accelerometers were fabricated on the selectively diffused (111)-oriented $n/n^{+}/n$ silicon substrates and the characteristics of the fabricated accelerometers were investigated. Then, we used a micromachining technique using porous silicon etching method for the formation of the micromechanical structure of the accelerometer.

Movable nanometer-scale structures are fabricated by selective etching of single crystalline Au nanoplates. The nanostructures have arbitrary shapes like gear and alphabet 'A' with in-plane size less than 500 m and thickness of $25\sim60nm$. They could be moved successfully on the substrate using a nanornanipulator installed in a focused ion beam system. Our approach is expected to be useful in fabricating various kinds of nanocomponents which can play a role as building blocks for the sophisticated nanodevices or micromachines.

This paper describes a compact microstrip active antenna with dual polarization. The antenna, receiving both a left-hand circularly polarized wave and a right-hand circularly polarized wave, has a function of polarization diversity. A square-shaped empty room is located on the inside of the microstrip radiator so that the size has been reduced. And slots are added around feeding point to improve input matching. Also, amplifier and switching circuitry are placed at the empty room to increase antenna gain and to select one of the circular polarizations, respectively. The proposed antenna has been applied to GPS(global positioning system). The measurement results show that it has 10dB-impedance bandwidth, 3dB axial bandwidth of about 50MHz, 3dB beamwidth of 90degree, and gain of 13dBi, respectively, for RHCP. Also, it has 3dB axial bandwidth of about 50MHz, 3dB beamwidth of 84 degree, and gain of 12dBi, respectively, for LHCP.

The phased array antenna has the ability to perform adaptive sampling by directing the radar beam without inertia in any direction. The adaptive sampling capability of the phased array antenna allows each sampling time interval to be varied for each target, depending on the acceleration of each target at any time. In this paper we design a three-dimensional adaptive tracking algorithm for the phased array radar system with a given set of measurement parameters. The tracking algorithm avoids taking unnecessarily frequent samples, while keeping the angular prediction error within a fraction of antenna beamwidth so that the probability of detection will not be degraded during a track update illuminations. In our algorithm, the target model and the sampling rate are selected depending on the target range and the target maneuver status which is determined by a maneuver detector. A detailed simulation is conducted to test the validity of our tracking algorithm for encounter geometries under various conditions of maneuver.

A concept of a VSA (Virtual Source Array) is the method for an acoustic spatio-temporal focus at a selected location in the outbound direction with respect to the VSA without the need of a probe source as combines a TRP (Time-Reversal Processing) and time-delay and beam-steering. However, in TRP using the VSA concept, it is limited to the critical angle and the short distances relevant to the VSA. In this paper, the waveguide invariant theory is applied to the VSA concept to refocus the received field at ranges greater other than the critical angle and the short ranges by shifting the focused field. The suggested method is verified via numerical simulation, and the results show that the robust acoustic focusing is achieved on the selected location regardless of the limitation on the conventional VSA concept.

This paper is described on the development of KOTRON-13 and recent status of PET cyclotron by commercial cyclotron companies. KIRAMS has developed medical cyclotron which is KIRAMS-13. Samyoung Unitech produces KOTRON-13 with transfered technology by KIRAMS. As a part of Regional Cyclotron Installation Protect, KOTRON-13 cyclotrons and $[18F]FDG$ production modules are being installed at regional cyclotron centers in Korea. The medical concern with radiation technology has been growing for the last several years. Early cancer diagnosis through the cyclotron and PET-CT have been brought to public attention by commercial cyclotron models in the world. The new commercial cyclotron models are introduced compact low energy cyclotrons developed by CTI, GE, Sumitomo in recent. It produces different short-lived radioisotopes, such as $[^{18}F],\;[^{11}C],\;[^{13}N]\;and\;[^{15}O]$. For the better reliability acceleration particle is proton only. The characteristics of new model cyclotrons are changed to lower energy corresponding to less 13 MeV. New models have self-shielding and low power consumption. Design criteria for the different types of commercial cyclotrons are described with reference to hospital demands.

The principal operation of a ring laser gyroscope depends on the phase difference for the counter-propagating waves within a closed path. The reflection mirrors mounted on the resonator block form the traveling waves. Thus, the dimension accuracy of resonator block influences the traveling path of beam. In order to maintain the stable optical beam path in the ring resonator, the piezo-driven moveable mirror is adopted for the path length control under the thermal expansion or mechanical strain of resonator block. This paper presents the mathematical description of the elastic behavior of piezo-driven mirror. This description can be applied for the concept design of piezo-driven mirror.

진공증착을 이용하여 제조된 알루미늄 박막은 증착 조건에 따라 그 특성이 현저히 달라지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히, 진공도와 증착율에 따라 비저항과 반사율, 표면 색상 등이 크게 달라지며 이에 따라 적절한 증발원 및 증착 방법의 선택이 박막의 특성을 좌우하게 된다. 알루미늄은 융점이 낮은 반면 증기화되는 온도가 높을 뿐만 아니라 고온에서는 대부분의 내화물 금속과 반응하기 때문에 저항가열 증발원을 이용하여 증발시키기가 매우 까다로운 물질중의 하나이다. 또한 전자빔으로 증발시킬 경우에는 열전도도가 커서 수냉 도가니를 통해 열이 빠져나가기 때문에 효과적인 증발을 위해서는 고전력을 투입해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 한편, 스퍼터링 증발원을 이용하여 알루미늄을 증착하면 낮은 증착율로 인해 반사율과 같은 제반 특성이 현저히 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 알루미늄 박막의 제조를 위한 최적의 증발원과 증착 방법을 소개하고 증착 조건과 박막 특성의 상관성 자료를 소개하였다. 이를 위해 각종 저항가열 및 전자빔 증발원 그리고 스퍼터링을 이용한 증발 실험 결과를 소개하고 증발원에 따른 알루미늄 박막의 특성 변화 그리고 제반 증착 조건이 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 소개하였다.
