The dependence of optical performances of collimating films such as prism films and pyramid films on the reflecting properties of reflection films were investigated by using a ray tracing technique. The angular distribution of the luminance and the on-axis luminance gain were obtained by using a simple backlight model composed of a reflection film, a virtual flat light source, and a collimating film. Three kinds of reflecting properties were used, which were a perfect Lambertian reflector, a perfect mirror reflector, and a reflector having both diffuse and specular properties. It was found that the on-axis luminance gain was the highest in the simulation where a mirror reflector was used, while the viewing angle was the widest where the Lambertian reflector was used. This result indicates that it is necessary to optimize the simulation condition such as the reflecting properties in order to predict the optical performances of collimating films accurately. Quantitative correlation between the optical characteristics of collimating films and the reflecting properties of reflection films can be used to improve simulation technique for the development and the optimization of collimating films for LCD backlight applications.

This study was designed to measure the absorbed dose to organs of special interest from full mouth with intraoral film(l4 films) and to compare the five periapical techniques. Thermoluminescent crystals(TLD-100 chip) were located in brain, orbit, bone marrow of mandibular ramus, bone marrow of mandibular body, bone marrow of 4th cervical spine, parotid gland, submandibular gland and thyroid gland. X -ray machine was operated at 70kVp and round collimating film holding device(XCP) and rectangular collimating film holding device(Precision Instrument) were used. The distance from the X-ray focus to the open end of the collimator was 8 inch, 12 inch and 16 inch. The results were as follows : 1. The absorbed dose was the highest in bone marrow of mandibular body(5.656mGy) and the lowest in brain (0.050mGy). 2. Generally, the lowest absorbed dose was measured from 16 inch cylinder, rectangular collimating film holding device with paralleling technique. But, in bone marrow of mandibular body and the floor of mouth, the highest absorbed dose was measured from 12 inch cylinder, rectangular collimating film holding device with paralleling techniques. 3. Comparing of five intraoral radiographic techniques, it was appeared statistically significant reduction of the absorbed doses measured with rectangular collimating film holding device compared to XCP film holding device (P<0.05). 4. No statistically significant reduction in the absorbed dose was found as cylinder length was changed(P>0.05).

Optical simulation methods such as a ray tracing technique have been widely used to predict the optical performances of collimating films for LCD backlight applications. It is necessary to optimize simulation conditions which have substantial effect on the simulation result in order to predict accurate performances of collimating films. We have set up a very simple backlight model consisting of a reflection film, a virtual flat light-source, and a prism film, which is a representative collimating film for backlight, in order to analyze the simulation conditions which are strongly correlated with the on-axis luminance gain and the viewing-angle characteristics of prism films. It was found that the dependence of the relative change in the on-axis luminance on the structure and material properties of collimating films can be derived from the above-mentioned simple BLU model and from simulation using it. However, the exact reflection property of the reflection film and the distribution of the incident light onto the optical film were found to be very important for revealing exact viewing-angle characteristics of collimating films.

In this study, we prepared the multi-refraction film thin by ink-jet technique with sol-gel precursor. The precursors were prepared by using some transition metal alk-oxide and the tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) mixed separately with n-Butyl Alcohol and PVB (Poly(vinyl butyral)).The structure and morphology of the resulting films were investigated by atomic force microscope (AFM). It is shown that the shape of the pattern of the films would affect the refraction proportion.

A method is described to produce off-axis hologram lenses without astigmatism for semiconductor lasers. We fabricated a holographic collimating lens by using dichromated gelatin film with high diffraction efficiency and without astigmatism which makes a collimated off-axis beam of semiconductor laser. We have designed the holographic collimating lens by applying the classical ray-tracing method to holographic diffraction. The elimination of astigmatism is obtained by choosing appropriate angles of recording and reconstruction beams. The hologram is recorded by use of Ar^{+}$ laser (488nm wavelength) and reconstructed by semiconductor laser(670nm wavelength). The physical parameters of recording and reconstruction angles, wavelength, and astigmatism are analytically calculated and experimentally confirmed.

Holography technology which was developed by Dennis Gabor (1900~1979) in 1948 is a technology to record wave planes of actual 3D objects. It is known as the only technology which can express 3D information most perfectly close to human-friendly. Holography technology is widely used in advertisement, architecture and arts as well as science technology areas. Especially, digital holographic print which is an applied area is greatly used in military map, architecture map and cultural asset restoration by printing and reproducing 3D information. Holography is realized by recording and reproducing the amplitude and phase information on high resolution film using coherent light like laser. Recording materials for digital holographic printer are silver halide, photoresist and photopolymer. Because the materials have different diffraction efficiency according to film characteristics of each manufacturer, appropriate guide lines should be suggested through efficiency analysis of each film. This paper suggests appropriate guide lines through the diffraction efficiency measurement of silver halide which is a holographic printer recording medium. And the objective of this study is to suggest appropriate guide lines through diffraction efficiency analysis of Ultimate 08-C and PFG-03C which are commercially used. The experiment was prepared by self-diffraction efficiency system which measures the strength with the defector by penetrating RGB recording medium and concentrating diffracted beams through collimating lens. The experiment showed Geola's PFG-03C which is a silver halide for full color has price/performance advantage in optical hologram recording, but recording angles and reproduction angles are irregular for digital holographic printer recording. Ultimate's Ultimate08-C for full color shows its diffraction efficiency is relatively stable and high according to recording angles and laser wavelength.

The optical performance of LLF(Lenticular Lens Film)-based backlight was studied by using optical simulation as functions of the aspect ratio and the refractive index of lenticular lenses. In order to perform reliable simulation, the BSDF(bi-directional scattering distribution function) of the scattering dots on the bottom surface of the light guide plate was obtained as a superposition of the Lambertian and the elliptic Gaussian distribution components by comparing the experimental results and the simulation for the luminance distribution on the light guide. Based on this approach, an appropriate BSDF of the scattering dots of the light guide was constructed. The resultant values of the optimized aspect ratio and the refractive were found to be 1.25 and 1.65, respectively. In spite of the hybrid aspects of LLF incorporating both diffusing and collimating functions, the optical performance, in particular the on-axis luminance of LLF-based backlight was inferior by about 20% compared to that of conventional backlights adopting one prism film. However, the combination of two lenticular lens films resulted in comparable luminance gain as well as smooth decrease in the luminance with the viewing angle without exhibiting any side lobes.

Objectives: Patient dose verification is clinically the most important parts in the treatment delivery of radiation therapy. The three dimensional(3D) reconstruction of dose distribution delivered to target volume helps to verify patient dose and determine the physical characteristics of beams used in intensity modulated radiation therapy(IMRT). We present Beam Intensity Scanner(BInS) system for the pre treatment dosimetric verification of two dimensional photon intensity. The BInS is a radiation detector with a custom made software for relative dose conversion of fluorescence signals from scintillator. Methods: This scintillator is fabricated by phosphor Gadolinium Oxysulphide and is used to produce fluorescence from the irradiation of 6MV photons on a Varian Clinac 21EX. The digitized fluoroscopic signals obtained by digital video camera will be processed by our custom made software to reproduce 3D relative dose distribution. For the intensity modulated beam(IMB), the BInS calculates absorbed dose in absolute beam fluence, which are used for the patient dose distribution. Results: Using BInS, we performed various measurements related to IMRT and found the followings: (1) The 3D dose profiles of the IMBs measured by the BInS demonstrate good agreement with radiographic film, pin type ionization chamber and Monte Carlo simulation. (2) The delivered beam intensity is altered by the mechanical and dosimetric properties of the collimating of dynamic and/or static MLC system. This is mostly due to leaf transmission, leaf penumbra, scattered photons from the round edges of leaves, and geometry of leaf. (3) The delivered dose depends on the operational detail of how to make multileaf opening. Conclusions: These phenomena result in a fluence distribution that can be substantially different from the initial and calculative intensity modulation and therefore, should be taken into account by the treatment planing for accurate dose calculations delivered to the target volume in IMRT.
