The nano-scale crystallite sizes of uranium oxide powders in simulated spent fuel were measured by the neutron diffraction line broadening method in order to analyze the sintering behavior of the dry process fuel. The mixed $UO_2$ and fission product powders were dry-milled in an attritor for 30, 60, and 120 min. The diffraction patterns of the powders were obtained by using the high resolution powder diffractometer in the HANARO research reactor. Diffraction line broadening due to crystallite size was measured using various techniques such as the Stokes' deconvolution, profile fitting methods using Cauchy function, Gaussian function, and Voigt function, and the Warren-Averbach method. The non-uniform strain, stacking fault and twin probability were measured using the information from the diffraction pattern. The realistic crystallite size could be obtained after separation of the contribution from the non-uniform strain, stacking fault and twin.

The generation of coherent x-ray beams by using a multi-slit diffraction phenomenon is presented. The mode-confinement conditions in the x-ray waveguide (XWG) needed to obtain single-mode beams are determined. The XWGs are stacked to form an XWG array. The core of the XWG array is used as a slit in an opaque screen, similar to those used for visible light. Diffraction patterns that interfered constructively in the XWG array are investigated based on multi-slit diffraction theory. The irradiance distributions are studied at on observation screen. The FWHM of diffracted x-ray spectra were between $1.67{\times}10^{-4}$ to $3.30{\times}10^{-5}$ radians which lead to a spot-size of a few tens of micrometers on the screen at distance of 1 m. The intensities decrease with increase in the period of the XWG array, i.e. a thicker cladding, due to growth of the higher-order diffraction peaks.

When irradiated with visible light in HPDLC, photoinitiator and coinitiator produce a radical for photopolymerization. According to the kinds of photoinitiator and coinitiator, quantity and rate of produced a radical is different. It is influence on photopolymerization rate relate on diffraction efficiency. Thus, this paper is about the effect of photoinitiator/coinitiator combinations in terms of diffraction efficiency and real-time first order diffraction efficiency.

High frequency scattered fields by a double impedence wedge are computed. In the procedure of the computation, arbitrary impedence faces and wedge angles are considered. The diffraction coefficients for the single, double and triple diffraction mechanism are founded. The second-order and third-order diffracted fields are approximated via the extended spectral ray method and the modified Pauli-Clemmow method of the steepest descent. The maliuzhinets function which is very difficult to obtain accurate value is approximated by the Volakis's asymtotic expression. Numerical computations are performed for the various wedge angles and surface impedence values.

This paper presents the method of numerical analysis concerned with the hydropdynamic forces and moments of the floating bodies exerted by waves. The analytic methods of hydrodynamic wave forces and moments for large volume structures are generally classified into four categories ; the strip method, the boundary element method, the finite element method, and the potential matching method. In the case of the comparatively large structures, diffraction theory can be applied. However, there are no application limits of diffraction theory which have been known concerning with the analytic method of the rectangular structures. In this paper, the two-dimensional B.E.M. is treated for a moored small rectangular structure in order to evaluate applicability of diffraction theory. Numerical calculation is carried out for the structure. The results are compared with some other ones for verification. The result shows that diffraction theory is applicable to structures smaller than 0.15 in the ratio of the representative structure length d to wave length L for rectangular ones.

In this study, we have investigated the holographic grating formation on Ag-doped amorphous As-Ge-Se-S thin films. The dependence of diffraction efficiency as afunction of Ag layer thickness has been investigated in this amorphous chalcogenide films. Holographic gratings was formed using [P:P] polarized Diode Pumped Solid State laser (DPSS, 532.0 nm). The diffraction efficiency was obtained by +1st order intensity. The results were shown that the diffraction efficiency of Ag/AsGeSeS double layer thin films for the Ag thickness, the maximum grating diffraction efficiency using 60 nm Ag layer is 0.96%.

Recently, the importance of ocean becomes more serious. Thus, we need to construct port structures and instruments safely. Especially, we should understand the diffraction phenomenon of wave in order to construct breakwaters. To simulate diffraction of wave, parabolic mild slope equations are solved using FDM. A breakwater with an open part and an half infinite breakwater are selected for simulation. Diffraction of wave are simulated in the condition of wave angles of attack of $0^{\circ},\;30^{\circ}\;and\l;60^{\circ}$. Diffraction Coefficient and 1)Ampplitude are shown in graphics and compared with results of Penny & Price and Memos.

Disorder-order transformation of nanocrystalline FeAl have been investigated by a combination of electron and X-ray diffraction analysis including high resolution electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Fe-50at.%Al powders mechanically alloyed for 90 hours consist of $5\sim10$ nm size grains haying either disordered b.c.c. structure or amorphous structure. X-ray and electron diffraction of mechanically alloyed FeAl powders show that disorder-order transformation occurs at the temperature range of $300^{\circ}C\sim320^{\circ}C$. Such a low-temperature ordering behavior exhibiting an exothermic reaction is attributable to the nm-scale grain structure with a large amount of defects accumulated during mechanical alloying process.

Lead-free $0.9(Na_{0.52}K_{0.48})NbO_3$ - $0.1LiTaO_3$ piezoelectric ceramics doped with $Ag_2O$ (0-4 mol%) have been prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The structural and electrical properties were analyzed in order to find its potential applications. The crystal structure of 1-4 mol% Ag doped $0.9(Na_{0.52}K_{0.48})NbO_3$-$0.1LiTaO_3$ lead free piezoelectric ceramics were investigated for several sintering temperatures ($1100^{\circ}C$) by the use of X-ray diffraction analysis. In order to analyze the effect of Ag dopants on the $0.9(Na_{0.52}K_{0.48})NbO_3$-$0.1LiTaO_3$ ceramic, the diffraction intensity ratio of the (002) to (200) planes were calculated from the X-ray diffraction patterns of the ceramic samples.

We report an in-depth analysis of the design and fabrication of multilayer dielectric (MLD) diffraction gratings for spectral beam combining at a wavelength of 1055 nm. The design involves a near-Littrow grating and a modal analysis for high diffraction efficiency. A range of wavelengths, grating periods, and angles of incidence were examined for the near-Littrow grating, for the $0^{th}$ and $-1^{st}$ diffraction orders only. A modal method was then used to investigate the effect of the duty cycle on the effective indices of the grating modes, and the depth of the grating was determined for only the $-1^{st}$-order diffraction. The design parameters of the grating and the matching layer thickness between grating and MLD reflector were refined for high diffraction efficiency, using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. A high reflector was deposited by electron-beam evaporation, and a grating structure was fabricated by photolithography and reactive-ion etching. The diffraction efficiency and laser-induced damage threshold of the fabricated MLD diffraction gratings were measured, and the diffraction efficiency was compared with the design's value.
