We proposed an axis transformation technique which reveals a distance parameter directly from optical scanning holography (OSH). After synthesis of a real-only spectrum hologram and power fringe adjusted filtering, we transform an original frequency axis to a new frequency axis using interpolation. In the new frequency axis, the filtered hologram has a single frequency which is linearly proportional to the distance parameter. Thus, the inverse Fourier transformation of the filtered hologram gives a delta function pair in the new spatial axis. Finally, we extract the distance parameter by detecting the location of the delta function pair.

An off-axis system refers to an optical system in which the optical axis and normal vector at the vertex of each surface do not match. The most important specification in an optical system is its focal length. Among the various methods for measuring the focal length, the most suitable method for the off-axis system is the method that adopts magnification. However, head-mounted display (HMD) optics must be measured while considering the virtual image distance, which is not infinity owing to product characteristics. For the virtual image distance, a camera with a focusing function was used. By measuring HMD optics via this magnification method, the error generated in this measurement was 0.68% of the HMD's focal length, which is within the 1%-3% range of the conventionally permitted design error for the focal length allowed at the optical design stage. Therefore, it can be verified that the measurement accuracy of the method proposed in this study is sufficiently feasible in practice.

Currently miniaturized electron-optical columns find their way into electron beam lithography systems. For better lithography process, it is required to make smaller spot size and longer working distance. But, the micro-columns of the multi-beam lithography system suffer from chromatic and spherical aberration, even when the electron beam is exactly on the symmetric axis of the micro-column. The off-axis error of the electron emitting source is expected to become worse with increasing off-axis distance of the focusing spot. Especially the electron beams far from the system optical axis have a non-negligible asymmetric intensity distribution in the micro-column. In this paper, the effect of the off-axis e-beam source is analyzed. To analyze this effect is to introduce a micro-column model of which the e-beam emitting source is aligned with the center of the electron beam by shifting them perpendicular to the system optical axis. The presented solution can be used to analysis the performance of the multi-electron-beam system. The performance parameters, such as the working distances and the focusing position are obtained by the computational simulations as a function of the off-axis distance of the emitting source.

Optical axis misalignment, which represents the position deviation of the objective lens from the optical axis, is an inevitable assembly error in an optical pick-up. Since the laser power intensity varies with respect to the distance from the optical axis, the misalignment leads to variation of the laser spot power intensity, which is one of the critical factors increasing data bit-error-rate in optical disc drives. In this paper, an auto-adjustment scheme for optical axis alignment is proposed to eliminate the undesirable variation of the laser spot power intensity in optical disc drives. An envelope of the data RF signal is extracted and utilized to detect the optical axis misalignment. Then an adjustment input is added to the driving input of the tracking actuator to shift the objective lens to the optical axis. Finally, the feasibility is verified by experiments.

최근 입체영상 콘텐츠를 소비하기 위한 인프라는 급속도로 구축되고 있지만, 이러한 수요를 충족시킬만한 입체영상 제작기반은 부족한 상황이다. 지금의 입체영상 제작환경에서는 기존에 평면영상을 제작하던 것과 같은 방법으로 입체영상을 제작하고 있다. 그로 인해 인간의 시지각과 카메라의 특성이 고려되지 않은 영상이 제작되고, 이것은 입체효과의 저하와 함께 영상 속 피사체의 크기가 현실과 다르게 왜곡되어 나타나는 등의 문제로 이어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 인식하고 더 나은 입체영상 콘텐츠 제작을 위해, 입체영상 관람 시 나타나는 인간의 크기 지각 특성을 고려한 입체 카메라의 광축 간격 조절에 대하여 연구하였다. 우선, 카메라의 광축 간 거리에 따라 영상 속에 나타나는 피사체의 면적 변화와 비율 데이터를 산출하였고, 광축 간격을 변화시키며 실제 입체영상을 촬영, 관람자들을 대상으로 설문을 진행하였다. 그 결과 인간의 입체시는 인간의 두 눈간 거리인 6.5cm를 기준으로 약 60%에서 2,000% 범위인 3.9cm에서 130cm 내에서는 광축 간 거리가 변화하더라도 크기 지각에 왜곡을 느끼지 않는다. 그러므로 입체영상 촬영할 때 광축 간격을 3.9cm에서 130cm 내에서 유지한다면 영상 관람에도 크기 지각에 문제가 발생하지 않고 실제와 동일한 크기로 느껴지는 영상을 제작할 수 있을 것이다.

An off-axis four-mirror-anastigmatic telescope is presented here which is composed of two aspheric surfaces and two spherical surfaces. The entrance pupil diameter is 290 mm and the stop is located at the primary mirror. The effective focal length is 900 mm. The strip field of view for the telescope is $15^{\circ}{\times}0.2^{\circ}$ and if the telescope is launched into an orbit about 400 km altitude, the observed range width will be more than 105 km within a scene without any other auxiliary scanning instrument. The spectral range can be as wide as from visual wave band to infrared wave band in the mirror system. This telescope can be used for environmental monitoring with different detectors whose pixel is adapted to the optical resolution. In this paper, the spectral range is chosen as 3.0 -5.0 ${\mu}m$, and center distance of the pixel is 30 ${\mu}m$. And the image quality is near the diffraction limit.

In order to test the recognition ability and accuracy of a target imaging simulator under the irradiation of solar stray light in a laboratory environment, it needs to be fixed on a five-axis turntable during a hardware-in-the-loop simulation test, so the optical system of the simulator should have a long exit pupil distance. This article adopts a secondary imaging method to design a projection optical system suitable for thin-film-transistor liquid crystal displays. The exit pupil distance of the entire optical system is 1,000 mm, and the final optimization results in the 400 nm-850 nm band show that the modulation transfer function (MTF) of the optical system is greater than 0.8 at the cutoff frequency of 72 lp/mm, and the distortion of each field of view of the system is less than 0.04%. Combined with the design results of the optical system, TracePro software was used to model the optical system, and the simulation of the target imaging simulator at the magnitude of -1 to +6 Mv was analyzed and verified. The magnitude error is less than 0.2 Mv, and the irradiance uniformity of the exit pupil surface is greater than 90%, which meets the requirements of the target imaging simulator.

The Holographic Particle Velocimetry system can be a promising optical tool for the measurements of three dimensional particle velocities. One of inherent limitations of particle holography is the very long depth of field of particle images, which causes considerable difficulty in the determination of particle positions in the optical axis. In this study, we introduced three auto-focusing parameters corresponding to the size of particles, namely, Correlation Coefficient, Sharpness Index, and Depth Intensity to determine the focal plane of a particle along the optical axis. To investigate the suitability of the above parameters, the plane image of dot array screens containing different size of dots was recorded by diffused illumination holography and the positions of each dot in the optical axis were evaluated. In addition, the effect of particle position from the holographic film was examined by changing the distance of the screen from the holographic film. All measurement results verified that the evaluated positions using suggested auto-focusing parameters remain within acceptable range of errors. These research results may provide fundamental information for the development of the holographic velocimetry system based on the automatic image processing.

일반적으로 광학계의 물체거리가 변하면 배율이 변하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 일반적인 이중 가우스(double-Gauss) 형태의 광학계에서 조리개를 기준으로 조리개 앞쪽에 위치한 렌즈군과 조리개 뒷쪽 렌즈군을 광축 방향으로 독립적으로 평행하게 이동하여 물체거리에 따라 배율과 상면이 고정되는 광학계를 제안하고 설계하였다. 이러한 광학계는 전방시현장치(head-up display, HUD), 두부장착디스플레이(head-mounted display, HMD) 등의 투사 광학계에 물체거리의 변화에 따라 상 크기가 변화하지 않도록 하여 전방시현장치 또는 두부장착디스플레이에서 초점 조절(focusing) 시에 화각이 변하지 않도록 하였다. 또한 반도체 칩과 IC 회로기판을 연결하는 와이어(wire)의 상태를 검사하는 과정에서 검사장비가 위 아래로 움직여서 물체거리가 변해도 광학계의 배율이 변하지 않도록 하여 고속검사가 가능할 수 있도록 별도 영상 처리를 시스템적으로 생략할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 가우스 괄호법(Gaussian bracket method)을 이용하여 원하는 사양을 만족하도록 각 군의 이동량을 구해서 배율과 상면이 고정되도록 하였다. 초기 설계를 진행한 후, 최적화는 광학 설계 프로그램인 시놉시스(Synopsys)를 사용하였다.
