This paper proposes a new method of measuring an air interface distance between a solid immersion lens(SIL) applied magneto-optic technology and the disk surface. For applying near-field recording (NFR) technology to the magneto-optic storage devices for the next generation, it is positively necessary to maintain the small air gap under about 100㎚. We design an apparatus that consists of some optical components such as a prism, a polarizer and an analyzer. By using the Fresnel reflection coefficient equation, Jones matrices calculation and Malus's law, we establish a mathematical model for understanding the characteristics of the system. The simulations are based on the mathematical model and through the simulation results which is made with various cases we can estimate the performance of the new optical gap sensor system. Experimental results, which are also based on the mathematical model for specific cases, are in good agreement with simulated ones and demonstrate the possibility as the new optical gap sensor.

Leakage magnetic flux (LMF) is widely used for non-contact detection of cracks. The combination of optics and LMF offers advantages such as real time inspection, elimination of electrical noise, high spatial resolution, etc. This paper describes a new nondestructive evaluation method based on an original magneto-optical inspection system, which uses a magneto-optical sensor, LMF, and an improved magnetization method. The improved magnetization method has the following characteristics: high observation sensitivity, independence of the crack orientation, and precise transcription of the geometry of a complex crack. The use of vertical magnetization enables the visualization of the length and width of a crack. The inspection system provides the images of the crack, and shows a possibility for the computation of its depth.

A new non-destructive inspection technique has been developed. One characteristic of the technique is that defects are visualized by laser ray. Magnetic domains and domain walls of a magneto-optical sensor(MO sensor) are varied by the magnetic flux leaked by defects, and the variations are observed by the reflected light of the laser ray. The information of defect can remotely be inspected by this technique in a real time. This paper describes the results estimated on the 2-dimensional surface defects and opposite-side defects in a ferromagnetic material and the natural surface defect in a clutch disk wheel. The light region of a visible image and the magnitude of a reflected light increases as the input current of the magnetizer increases. The natural surface defect, that has not the width of crack's open mouth, can be also visualized like as 2-dimensional artificial defects.

This paper describes a new magnetization method for non-destructive testing with magneto-optical sensor (denoted as MO sensor) which have the following characteristic : high observation sensitivity, independence of the crack orientation, and precise imaging of a complex crack geometry such as multiple cracks. When a magnetic field is applied normally to the surface of a specimen which is significantly larger than its defects, approximately the same magnetic charge per unit area occurs on the surface of the specimen. If there is a crack in the specimen, magnetic charge per unit area has the same value at the bottom of the crack. The distribution of the vertical component of the magnetic flux density, B$\_$Z/, is almost uniform over the no-crack area (denoted as B$\_$Z,BASE/), while the magnetic flux density is smaller in the surroundings of the crack(denoted as B$\_$Z,CRACK/) If B$\_$Z, BASE/ is a bit larger than the saturated magnetic flux density of the MO sensor (B$\_$s/) , then small magnetic domains occur over the crack area and a large domain over the non-crack area because B$\_$Z,CRACK/ is smaller than B$\_$s/.

This paper presents the development of a magneto-optical encoder for higher precision and smaller size. In general, optical encoders can have very high precision based on the position information of the slate, while their sizes tend to be larger due to the presence of complex and large components, such as an optical module. In contrast, magnetic encoders have exactly the opposite characteristics, i.e., small size and low precision. In order to achieve encoder features encompassing the advantages of both optical and magnetic encoders, i.e., high precision and small size, we designed a magneto-optical encoder and developed a method to detect absolute position, by compensating for the error of the hall sensor using the linear table compensation method. The performance of the magneto-optical encoder was evaluated through an experimental testbed.

In this study, a Web server was constructed using LabVIEW's DataSocket, which makes possible acquisition, analysis, and saving in real time. The output value of the optical current sensor at the web server PC was measured and the output value was displayed using the Web browser of the client PC. DataSocket by LabVIEW makes the construction of a Web server easier than other languages and is compatible with other application programs. An optical current sensor was composed using a 1310 [nm] laser diode, and 9/125 [${\mu}m$] standard single mode optical fiber and was created to be a close type sensor. Data measurement using Web servers has the advantage of monitoring electric power systems at a great distance and can fuse IT technology and electric power systems. Also, this measurement uses inexpensive mounting and programming when compared to existing measurement equipment allowing the construction of a measurement system in any situation or surrounding.

본 연구에서는 광계측 기술을 이용하여 배전자동화 개폐기 내에서 발생하는 전자 계측장치의 절연문제 및 측정오차의 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 배선자동화개폐기 내장형 광전류 및 광전압센서를 연구하였다. 자기광학 효과(magneto optic effect)인 페러데이효과(Faraday effect)를 이용하여 최적의 광전류 센서를 설계 제작하여 높은 전류까지 선형성을 유지시키고 다른 상의 전류에 대한 유도현상을 최소로 하기 위해 순철 코아를 사용하여 광전류 센서를 일체화시켜 설계 제작하였다. 설계내에서 결정의 굴절률 및 방위각의 변화에 의해 생기는 전기광학효과(electrooptic effect)인 포켈스 효과(pockels effect)를 이용하여 광전압센서를 구성하였으며 배전 자동화용 개폐기의 협소한 내부구조를 고려하여 공간전계방식을 채택하였다. 또한 다심의 광섬유를 개폐기와 외부의 신호처리 단말기와 연결하기 위하여 기밀형 멀티 광커넥터를 설계 자작하여 접속 손실 및 가스 누설 시험을 하였다. 전기적 특성시험에서 광 전류센서에서는 인가 전류에 대한 선형 특성은 20A 에서 700A까지 변동 오차 2.5% 이내의 선형성을 유지하였으며, 광전압센서에 있어서 인가 전압에 대한 선형 특성은 6.6kV에서 19.8kV까지 거의 변동 오차가 1% 이내로 우수한 선형 특성을 나타냈다.

본 논문은 자기광학효과에 의한 초고압 전력설비에서의 광전류 센서의 특성에 대한 기초 연구를 하였다. 광원은 He-Ne laser(633[nm])를 사용하고, 수신부는 PIN-Photodiode를 사용하였다. Faraday 효과에 의한 편광면의 회전각은 도체에 인가된 전류에 비례하므로 광섬유를 도체 주위에 감아서 센싱부를 구성하였다. 광섬유센서를 통과한 광신호를 입력편광에 대하여 $\theta$방향으로 정렬된 검광자를 통과시켜 그 회 각을 분석하여 l00[A] 에서 1000[A] 까지의 광 CT 동작특성과 60[Hz] 교류전류측정을 하였다. 측정 결과에서는 전류에 따른 출력 신호가 선형적으로 증가함을 알 수 있었고 파이버의 권수에 따른 출력차이를 통해 파이버의 권수가 많을수록 강도가 커진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 자장과 감긴 파이버 사이의 매질에 따라 출력의 차이뿐만 아니라 선형성까지도 차이가 난다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 기준값과 광전류 센서의 출력 강도와의 오차율을 구했을 때 약 $\pm$7% 이하의 오차가 나왔고 이는 매질과 권수에 따라 그 오차율이 점점 나아질 수 있다는 것을 확인 시켜주었다.

In this paper, a magneto-optic modulator has been designed by using single crystal BSO and polycrystal ZnSe as Faraday cells. And practical core-type optical current sensors using pure iron and permalloy have been prepared and experimented. In order to obtain efficient magnetic field detection, LED(NEC OD08358, 0.87 $\mu$m) was used as optical source, PIN-PD(OD-8454)as optical receiver and multi-mode optical fiber (100/140$\mu$m) as transmission line. The characteristics matrix of the optical element was calculated by Stokes parameter, and optic modulation characteristics equations were derived by Muller matrix. Electromagnetic analysis program (FLUX 2D, micro VAX 3600) by finite element method was used to find the magnetic flux density around the core. The measuring error of the output voltage to input current has been masured below 5% in the range of 50A to 1000A. As the temperature was changed from -20$^{\circ}C$ to 60$^{\circ}C$, the maximum measurement error of the optical output has been found to be 0.5% at 60$^{\circ}C$. These experimental results show good temperature and linearity characteristics. The SNR of the overall system was 47dB in case of 600A (250.2 Oe) conductor current and the system has good noise immunity.
