Femtosecond laser machining has been applied for creating a sensor function in silica glass optical fibers. Femtosecond laser pulses make it possible to fabricate micro structures in processed regions of a very thin glass fiber line because femtosecond laser pulses can extremely minimize thermal effects. With the laser machining to optical fiber using a single shot of 210-fs laser at a wavelength of 800 nm, it was observed that a processed region surrounded a thin layer which seemed to be a hollow cavity monitored by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This study aims at a theoretical investigation for the processed region by using a numerical analysis in order to embed sensing function to optical fibers. Numerical methods based finite element method (FEM) has been used for an optical waveguide modeling. This report suggests two types modeling and describes a comparative study on optical losses obtained by the experiment and the numerical analysis.

In this study, we aims to develop the machining technology for the ultra precision surface and profile accuracy. For this purpose, we construct the electrolytic in process grinding system (ELID grinding) and apply to the cylindrical and internal grinding. Through the various machining experiments such as SCM steel., ceramics, tungsten carbide etc., we have obtained nanometer surface roughness. And we have applied this mirror grinding technique to hydraulic manual valve and mold core of mini disk optical pick-up base. For the development of fine mechanical part machining technology, e have made multi fiber optical connector using fine grinding technology. And constructed micro drilling system with process monitoring system which is possible to drill 50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ diameter hole.

As optical communication is being substituted for telecommunication, the demand of a large variety of fiber optic components is increasing. V-groove substrates, one of the module components, are used to connect optical fibers to optical planar circuits and to arrange fibers. Their applications are multi-channel optical connectors and optical waveguide fiber coupling, etc. Because these substrates are a critical part of the splitter in a multiplexer and a multi fiber connector, precise and reliable fabrication process is required. For precisely aligning core pitch between fibers, machined core pitch tolerance should be within sub-microns. Therefore, these are generally produced by state-of-the-art micro-fabrication like MEMS. However, most of the process equipment is very expensive. It is also difficult to change the process line for custom designs to meet specific requirements using various materials. For various design specifications such as different values of the V angle and low-priced process, the fabrication method should be flexible and low cost. To achieve this goal, we have suggested a miniaturized machine tool with high accuracy positioning system. Through this study, it is shown that this cutting process can be applied to produce V-groove subtracts. We also show the possibility of using a miniaturized machining system for producing small parts.

본 논문에서는 광통신용 공진기에 필요한 광섬유의 오목한 면 제작에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 불산(Hydrofluoric acid) 용액과 이 용액에 잘 흡수될 수 있는 파장인 $1.55{\mu}m$의 레이저를 인가하여 광열효과를 유도하였고, 식각 용액에서의 광열효과를 통해 광섬유 끝단의 곡률 반경을 자유롭게 변경할 수 있는 점을 현미경 사진 촬영으로 확인하였다. 빔 프로파일러를 이용하여 제작한 결과물의 끝단에서 방사되는 빔의 크기 변화를 관측하여 유효성을 검증하였고 본 논문의 저자들은 제시한 방식이 광통신용 공진기에 적용 가능성이 있을 것으로 보고 있다.

본 논문에서는 플루오린화 수소산(Hydrofluoric acid: HF) 수용액과 광섬유에 인가된 $1.55{\mu}m$ 파장의 레이저를 통해 유도된 광열 효과를 이용하여 오목한 광섬유 팁을 제작하였다. 제작 과정에서 인가한 레이저의 세기, 식각 시간, HF 수용액의 농도에 따른 광섬유 팁 오목 면의 곡률 반경을 광학 현미경을 이용하여 측정하였으며 곡률 반경이 세 변인에 대하여 어떻게 변화하는지 분석하였다. 또한, Free Spectral Range(FSR)와 Scanning electron microscope(SEM) 촬영을 통해 현미경을 이용한 측정 방법의 신뢰성을 검증하였다. 본 논문을 통해 광섬유 팁의 오목 면 제작 과정에서 변인에 따라 곡률 반경을 조절할 수 있게 됨으로써 기존의 HF 수용액을 이용한 광섬유 식각 방법의 한계점을 극복할 수 있었다.

Polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools possessing high hardness and abrasive wear resistance are particularly suited for drilling of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, where tool life and consistent hole quality are important. While PCD presents superior performance when drilling CFRP, it is unclear how it performs when drilling multi-stack materials such as CFRP-titanium (Ti) stacks. This comparative study aims to investigate drilling of a Ti plate stacked on a CFRP panel when using PCD tools. The first sequence of the drilling experiments was to drill 20 holes in CFRP only. CFRP-Ti stacks were then drilled for the next 20 holes with the same drill bit. CFRP holes and CFRP-Ti stack holes were evaluated in terms of machined hole quality. The main tool wear mechanism of PCD drills is micro-fractures that occur when machining the Ti plate of the stack. Tool wear increases the instability and the operation temperature when machining the Ti plate. This results in high drilling forces, large hole diameter errors, high surface roughness, wider CFRP exit thermal damage, and taller exit Ti burrs.

본 논문에서는 미세 방전가공(Electrical Discharge Machining; EDM) 기계를 위한 샌드위치 구조를 설계하기 위해 복합재료의 적층 순서, 두께, 그리고 리브의 형상 등을 고려한 파라메트릭 연구를 수행하였다. 샌드위치 구조는 면재인 섬유강화 복합재료와 심재인 레진 콘크리트 및 고분자 포움으로 이루어졌다. 컬럼은 정적 굽힘강성과 비굽힘강성을 높이기 위해 십자 리브를 가진 형상으로 설계하였으며, 적층 순서와 두께를 조절하였다. 베드의 경우 양방향의 강성을 동시에 향상시키기 위해 적층 순서와 리브 형상을 조절하였다. 최적의 고강성을 얻기 위하여 리브의 두께와 면재의 두께 등 설계 파라메터의 최적치를 제안하였다. 각 설계 파라메터의 변화에 따른 구조의 정적, 동적 강성의 변화를 확인하기 위해 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 진동 실험을 통하여 각 요소의 고유진동수와 감쇠비를 측정하여 비교하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 고정밀 미세 방전가공 기계 구조를 위한 최적의 형상조건을 제안하였다.

Laser has been called a "Quantum Machine" because of its mechanism of generation since the development on July 7,1960.by T.H.Maiman. We can now use this machine as a tool for manufacturing in industries. At present, 45kW CO2 laser, 10kW Nd:YAG laser, 6kW LD pumped YAG laser and 4kW direct diode laser facilities are available for welding a heavy steel plate of 40mm in thickness and for cutting metals at high speed of 140m/min. Laser Materials Processing is no longer a scientific curiosity but a modern tool in industries. Lasers in manufacturing sector are currently used in welding, cutting, drilling, cladding, marking, cleaning, micro-machining and forming. Recently, high power laser diode, 10kW LD pumped YAG laser, 700W fiber laser and excimer laser have been developed in the industrialized countries. As a result of large numbers of research and developments, the modem laser materials processing has been realized and used in all kinds of industries now. In the present paper, metallurgical studies on laser materials processing such as porosity formation, hot cracking and the joint performances of steels and aluminum alloys and dissimilar joint are discussed after the introduction of laser facilities and laser applications in industries such as automotive industry, electronics industry, and steel making industry. The wave towards the use of laser materials processing and its penetration into many industries has started in many countries now. Especially, development of high power/quality diode laser will be accelerate the introduction of this magnificent tool, because of the high efficiency of about 50%, long life time and compact.
