The Experimental calibration method has been investigated to correct d-spacing estimation and to identify phases in the electron diffraction data acquired by imaging plates. When the diffraction data from the imaging plate was corrected by the d-spacing calibration method with the radial intensity distribution plotting in this experiment, The accuracy of d-spacing estimation was significantly increased in errors of about 0.5%. The experimental calibration equation followed up the first order exponential decay function was derived from the trace of d-spacing deviation between the measured and the calculated values. It was applied to the analysis of d-spacing and the phase identification of the transitional phases formed from [001] gibbsite specimen by electron beam irradiation effect. In this case more accurate phase identification and d-spacing evaluation is possible for the transitional phases whose diffraction patterns are complicatedly superimposed. It is concluded that ${\chi}$-alumina, ${\gamma}$-alumina and ${\sigma}$-alumina are clearly identified as the major transitional phases formed from gibbsite by electron beam irradiation for 120 min.

In order to improve the diffraction efficiency of the photopolymer, we prepared a $TiO_2$ added photopolymer and investigated the optical properties. Prepared photopolymer films are based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a polymer binder, acryl amide (AA) as a photo-polymerizable monomer, triethanolamine (TEOA) as an initiator, and eosin Y as a sensitizer at 532 nm. To prepare the photopolymer films with the uniform thickness, the constant amount (2.5 ml) of the photopolymer solution was dropped on the glass and spread using a spin coater. Then films were dried for 72 hrs in a darkroom ($20^{\circ}C$, 40% RH) prior to the optical measurement. Then, the diffraction efficiencies of both the photopolymer films containing $TiO_2$ and non-contained films were measured with the various incident angles ($20{\sim}70^{\circ}$). Therefore, $TiO_2$ added photopolymer showed 5% higher diffraction efficiency than neat photopolymer without $TiO_2$ addition. The addition of $TiO_2$ into the photopolymer showed the high diffraction efficiency (over 70%) at broad range ($20{\sim}70^{\circ}C$) of the incident angle.

This paper is to investigate propagation path characteristics of GPS potential jamming signal. To do this, the spherical ground diffraction model is applied to the potential jamming scenario referred to the GPS jamming events occurred in recent years. The fundamental theory on the propagation path loss is discussed and a specific model is applied to several vehicles types which have own heights of antennas in order to compare their propagation path loss values at same 2-D location. The transmitting powers are appropriately given as the ordinary GPS jamming events. And then the received powers in dBW are obtained with given transmitting powers and the estimated total loss. The result of received jamming power at various locations due to the given scenario was distinct. For example, propagation loss values were estimated as -147 ~ -142dBW and -167 ~ -162dBW in $10^6W$ and $10^4W$, respectively. This computation result of the loss can be seriously considered with the tolerable jammer power against L1- C/A GPS receiver under any real jamming situations.

Structural studies of series of 'as spun' and drawn PEEK fibers have been carried out using X-ray diffraction and optical microscopy techniques. The analysis of results suggest that fibers produced at a constant draw ratio with increasing draw temperatures show enhanced orientation and crystalline behaviour. The resolved equatorial and meridional traces provide additional structural parameters in terms of crystallinity, crystallite size, and crystallite thickness. It is concluded that drawing at a temperature below $T_g(i.e.,\;144^{\circ}C)$ results in poorly oriented non-crystalline materials, whereas drawing above $T_g$ results in highly oriented semi crystalline materials. Additional drawing proved to increase the overall orientation with slight improvements in lateral order of the chain molecules. Quantitative analysis revealed that the crystallite size increases with increasing drawing temperature. The results also revealed the increased crystallite size upon additional drawing. Crystalline orientation parameter, $_c$, suggests almost perfect orientation. In all cases, the amorphous orientation is found to be lower than the overall orientation parameter obtained from the optical birefringence. As a result of additional drawing, crystalline orientation was found to increase slightly but the increase in the orientation of non-crystalline material was found to be substantial. An average crystalline density was determined from the orthorhombic unit cell dimensions. It was found to vary as a result of processing conditions. It was also found that the value of the maximum birefringence shows heavy dependence on the chain conformation.

In the present study, the wave excitation forces acting on an array of porous circular cylinders are examined based on diffraction problems. To calculate the wave forces, the fluid domain is divided into three regions i.e. a single exterior region, N interior regions and N beneath regions, and the diffraction in each fluid region is expressed by an eigenfunction expansion method with using 3-dimension liner potential theory (Williams and Li, 2000). Especially, the present method is extended to the case of an array of truncated porous circular cylinders to calculate the heave forces as well as surge and sway forces. To verify this method, the numerical results obtained by eigenfunction are compared with these results obtained by higher order boundary element method (Choi et al., 2000). The numerical results obtained by this study are in good agreement with those results. By changing the numbers of porous circular cylinders, the angle of incident wave and the porosity rate of circular cylinders, the wave excitation forces such as surge, sway and heave on an array of truncated porous circular cylinders are investigated.

Costume heritages of an excavated silk fabrics should be preserved without damage. In order to artificially restore the excavated silk fabrics, alkaline aqueous solution, as a simulated corpse, and two kinds of silk fabrics were used. Two kinds of silk fabrics were treated by aqueous alkaline solution according to strength retention value(100, 80, 60, 40, 20$\%$). The fine structure and physical properties of alkaline treated silk fabrics were investigated with various techniques such as wide-angle X-ray diffraction, tensile test, weight loss, shrinkage, SEM. and yellowness. As the alkaline treatment time increased tensile strength of silk fabrics decreased. However, weight loss and shrinkage slightly increased. The diffraction intensity of $\beta-form$ crystal declined and $\alpha-form$ crystal diffraction intensity disappeared with the treatment.

In this paper, we studied resolution to the FBP and BFP image reconstruction algorithms for ultrasonic diffraction tomography. In order to analyze the resolution to the tomographic images which can be reconstructed from the modified FBP image reconstruction algorithm by using fixed coordinate system and BFP image reconstruction algorithm which is suitable for plane structure object, we derived ambiguity functions to these algorithms and then analyzed lateral and depth resolution through simulation respectively. Simulation results show that the lateral and depth resolution to the FBP image reconstruction algorithm and the BFP image reconstruction algorithm was determined 0.27 λ, 0.70 λ and 0.39 λ, 0.98 λ at the 3dB respectively. These results imply that modified FBP and BFP image reconstruction algorithms for diffraction tomography is useful in the tomographic image reconstruction.

The ZnO/CuSn/ZnO (ZCSZ) multilayer films were deposited on polycarbonate substrates using reactive RF and DC magnetron sputtering. The thickness of each layer was 50 nm/5 nm/45 nm, respectively. The ZCSZ films showed a sheet resistance of $44{\Omega}$/Sq, which was an order of magnitude lower than that indium tin oxide (ITO) films. Although the ZCSZ films had a CuSn interlayer that absorbed visible light, both films had similar optical transmittances of 74% in the visible wavelength region. The figure of merit of the ZCSZ films was $1.0{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$ and was greater than the value of the ITO films, $1.6{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}^{-1}$. From the X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the ITO films did not show any diffraction peaks, whereas the ZCSZ films showed diffraction peaks for the ZnO (100) and (002) phases. The hardness of the ITO and ZCSZ films were 5.8 and 7.1 GPa, respectively, which were determined using nano-indentation. From these results, the ZCSZ films exhibited greater optoelectrical performance and hardness compared to the conventional ITO films.
