The traditional surface measuring method using confocal principle requires much time to measure an object surface since it is a scanning tool. In this paper, the upgraded confocal microscope is introduced. It is also a scanning tool but it requires 2D-scanning while the traditional one requires 3D-scanning. It means the time for measuring is considerably reduced. In addition, the measuring system is configured to increase the efficiency of beam. He-Ne laser whose frequency is 632.8nm is used for the laser source. An example of measuring result through the upgraded confocal microscope is showed.

Surface topography plays a decisive role in determining the performance of several precision components. In particular, the surface roughness of semiconductor devices affects the precision of the circuit. In this regard, the surface topography of a given surface needs to be appropriately assessed. Typically, the average roughness is used as one of the main indicators of surface finish quality because it is influenced by both dynamic and static parameters. Owing to the increasing demand for such accurate and reliable surface measurement systems, studies are continuously being conducted to understand the parameters of surface roughness and measure the average roughness with high reliability. However, the differences in the measurement methods of surface roughness are not clearly understood. Hence, in this study, the surface roughness of the back of a silicon wafer was measured using both contact and noncontact methods. Subsequently, a comparative analysis was conducted according to various surface roughness parameters to identify the differences in surface roughness depending on the measurement method. When using a 3D laser confocal microscope, even smaller surface asperities can be measured compared with the use of a 3D profiler. The results are expected to improve the understanding of the surface roughness characteristics of precision components and be used as a useful guideline for selecting the measurement method for surface topography assessment.

Image stacking technique is one of the key techniques for complex surface reconstruction. The process includes sample collection, image processing, algorithm editing, surface reconstruction, and finally reaching reliable conclusions. Since this experiment is based on laser scanning confocal microscope to collect the original contour information of the sample, it is necessary to briefly introduce the relevant principle and operation method of laser scanning confocal microscope. After that, the original image is collected and processed, and the data is expanded by interpolation method. Meanwhile, several methods of surface reconstruction are listed. After comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each method, one-dimensional interpolation and volume rendering are finally used to reconstruct the 3D model. The experimental results show that the final 3d surface modeling is more consistent with the appearance information of the original samples. At the same time, the algorithm is simple and easy to understand, strong operability, and can meet the requirements of surface reconstruction of different types of samples.

Collagen can be used in building artificial skin replacements for treatment of burns and towards the reconstruction of bone as well as researching cell behavior and cellular interaction. The strength of collagen in connective tissue rests on the characteristics of collagen fibers. 3D confocal imaging of collagen fibers enables the characterization of their spatial distribution as related to their function. However, the image stacks acquired with confocal laser-scanning microscope does not clearly show the collagen architecture in 3D. Therefore, we developed a new method to reconstruct, visualize and characterize collagen fibers from fluorescence confocal images. First, we exploit the tensor voting framework to extract sparse reliable information about collagen structure in a 3D image and therefore denoise and filter the acquired image stack. We then propose to segment the collagen fibers by defining an energy term based on the Hessian matrix. This energy term is minimized by a min cut-max flow algorithm that allows adaptive regularization. We demonstrate the efficacy of our methods by visualizing reconstructed collagen from specific 3D image stack.

새롭게 개발된 레이저 콘포컬 현미경을 이용해 암석 불연속면의 거칠기를 측정하였다. 레이저의 파장은 488 nm이며, 현미경은 두 개의 galvano-meter scanner mirror를 이용한 광 편광법에 의해 제어된다. 레이저 반사를 통한 자동 초점기능은 관찰대상을 빠르고 정확하게 측정할 수 있다. 이 현미경은 기존의 다른 콘포컬 현미경에 비해 광축방향의 해상도를 크게 개선하였고, 특수 제작한 현미경 스테이지를 이용해 최대 $10{\;}{\times}{\;}10{\;}cm$ 까지 크기의 시료를 측정할 수 있다. 측정간격은 x와 y 방향으로 $2.5{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$씩이며, z방향의 최대 측정해상도는 $10{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$로서, 다른 방범에 비해 훨씬 정확하다. 조립질과 세립질의 입도가 다른 화강암을 대상으로 인장시험(Brazilian test)를 통해 인공절리를 생성시켰고, 생성된 좌우의 절리면에 각각 3개씩의 측선을 설정하였다. 각 측선을 따라 측정한 높이는 1차원은 물론 거칠기의 세밀한 양상을 보여주는 2차원과 3차원의 디지털 이미지로 표현된다. 조립질 화강암의 1차원 단면은 세립질보다 불연속면의 기복이 더 심함을 잘 보여준다. 거칠기를 정량적으로 특성화하고 거칠기를 구성하는 성분 중 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 성분을 파악하기 위해 고속퓨리에 변환 (FFT)를 이용한 스펙트럼 분석을 실시하였다. 스펙트럼 분석결과 저주파 성분이 큰 시효의 경우 거칠기의 기복변화가 심하고 긴 파장을 나타내는 경향이 있음을 구명하였다.

본 연구에서는 지하수의 이동에 영향을 주는 암반의 균열에 대해서 고온하에서의 다단계 압력실험을 통해 균열면의 거칠기 변화에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 연구에 사용된 시료는 지표에서 지하 500 m 구간에서 획득한 조립질 화성암과 세립질 화성암 시료 중 심도 약 40 m와 270 m의 시료를 실험에 사용하였다. 압력은 최대 120 MPa 까지 가압을 하였으며, 단계적으로 10 MPa씩 증가하면서 실험을 수행하였다. 각 단계에서의 표면 변화를 관측하기 위해서 고분해능 3차원 다초점 레이저 스캔 현미경(Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope, CLSM)을 사용하였으며, 이를 통해서 미세한 표면의 거칠기를 확인할 수 있었다. 거칠기의 변화에 대해서는 거칠기 인자값을 기준으로 변화된 양을 계산하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 시료는 $20{\times}40{\times}5mm$ 크기를 가지고 있으며, 가압장치는 나사방식으로 압력을 가할 수 있도록 제작한 챔버를 활용하여 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 단계적으로 압력이 가해지는 조건에서 압력에 따른 균열면의 거칠기는 입자의 크기에 따라 다른 변화를 보이는 것으로 확인되었으며, 이러한 자료는 추후 암석의 균열면을 따라 이동할 수 있는 지하수의 흐름에 대한 예측을 위한 기초자료로 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In-depth knowledge of fabric microstructure is essential for understanding clothing comfort since it plays a significant role in heat and mass transfer between the human body and clothing. In this study, a novel method was employed for investigating 3D surfaces and solid construction characteristics of specific fabrics by using a reverse engineering technique. The surface construction data were obtained by a confocal laser scanning microscope and then manipulated by a 3D analysis program. Triangle mesh was used for connecting each 3D point, with clouds and fabric surface characteristics created by rendering techniques. For generating a 3D solid model, determinants of radius of curvature was used. According to the proposed method, actual surface expression of the real fabric was achieved successfully. The results from this methodology can be applied to the detailed analysis of clothing comfort that is highly influenced by the microstructure of the fabric.

Using a line scan camera and a Galvano mirror, we constructed a high-speed line-scanning microscope that can generate 2D images ($8000{\times}8000pixels$) without any moving parts. The line scanner consists of a Galvano mirror and a cylindrical lens, which creates a line focus that sweeps over the sample. The measured resolutions in the x (perpendicular to line focus) and y (parallel to line focus) directions are both $2{\mu}m$, with a 2X scan lens and a 3X relay lens. This optical system is useful for measuring defects, such as spalling, chipping, delamination, etc., on the surface of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) holes after machining in conjunction with adjustments in the angle of LED lighting. Defects on the inner wall of holes are measured by line confocal laser scanning. This confocal method will be useful for analyzing defects after CFRP machining and for fast 3D image reconstruction.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate on the interfacial morphology between dentin and restorative materials. In this in vitro study, the cavity wall restorated with 3 different kinds of tooth colored restorative materials [resin-modified Glass Ionomer cement (Fuji II LC), composite resin (Z-100), compomer (Dyract)]. The thirty extracted human molar teeth without caries and/or restorations are used. The experimental teeth were randomly divided into three groups of ten teeth each. In each group, Wedge shaped cavities (width: 3mm, length: 2mm, depth: 1.5mm) were prepared at the cementoenamel junction on buccal and lingual surfaces. The adhesive of composite resin were mixed with rhodamine B. Primer of composite resin, Prime & Bond 2.1 of Dyract and liquid of Fuji II LC were mixed with fluorescein. In group 1, the cavity wall was treatment with dentin conditioner, and then restorated with Fuji II LC. In group 2, the cavity wall was treatment with Prime & Bond 2.1 and then restorated with Dyract. In group 3, the cavity wall was etching with 10% maleic acid, applied with primer and bonding agent and then restorated with Z-100. The interface between dentin and restorative materials was observed by fluoresence imaging with a confocal laser scanning microscope. The results were as follows : 1. In Glass ionomer group, adaptation of resin modified Glass-ionomer restoration against cavity wall is tight, but the crack formed inside of restoration were observed. 2. In Dyract group, the penetration of resin tag is shorter and the width of hybrid layer is narrower than composite resin group. 3. In Z-100 group, primer penetrated deeply through dentinal tubule. Also bonding agent was penetrated along the primer, but the penetration length is shorter than primer part, and in 3-D image, the resin tag is conical shape and lateral branch is observed.
