  • This paper presents an optical doppler tomography(ODT) system using a speaker as a method to achieve depth measurement in a flowing sample. The use of the speaker provides easy implementation with a low cost. The nonlinear characteristics of the speaker has hindered its adaptation because it produces inconsistent fringe frequencies at different depths. This paper reports an adaptive algorithm to compensate the nonlinear characteristics, and could, resultantly, acquire the Doppler frequency shift caused by the sample. The experiment utilizes a flowing scattering particle solution in a capillary tube at a certain flow rate. The Doppler frequency profile over the lumen was calculated by using spectrogram method. and we obtained the velocity image of the sample.

  • We introduce a novel contrast mechanism for imaging superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles (average diameter ${\sim}100nm$) using magneto-motive optical Doppler tomography (MM-ODT), which combines an externally applied temporally oscillating high-strength magnetic field with ODT to detect the nanoparticles flowing through a glass capillary tube. A solenoid cone-shaped ferrite core extensively increased the magnetic field strength ($B_{max}=1\;T,\;{\Delta}|B|^2=220T^2/m$) at the tip of the core and also focused the magnetic force on targeted samples. Nanoparticle contrast was demonstrated in a capillary tube filled with the SPIO solution by imaging the Doppler frequency shift which was observed independent of the flow rate and direction. Results suggest that MM-ODT may be a promising technique to enhance SPIO nanoparticle contrast for imaging fluid flow.

  • This paper describes development of a high speed Doppler OFDI system for non-invasive vascular imaging. Doppler OFDI (optical frequency domain imaging) is one of the phase-resolved second generation OCT (optical coherence tomography) techniques for high resolution imaging of moving elements in biological tissues. To achieve a phase-resolved imaging, two temporally separated measurements are required. In a conventional Doppler OCT, a pair of massively oversampled successive A-lines is used to minimize de-correlation noise at the expense of significant imaging speed reduction. To minimize a de-correlation noise between targeted two measurements without suffering from significant imaging speed reduction, several methods have been developed such as an optimized scanning pattern and polarization multiplexed dual beam scanning. This research represent novel imaging technique using frequency multiplexed dual beam illumination to measure exactly same position with aimed time interval. Developed system has been verified using a tissue phantom and mouse vessel imaging.

  • In this study, the feasibility of spectral domain optical Doppler tomography for measuring blood flow characteristics in a micro-tube was demonstrated through several experiments. The use of an SD-ODT system in blood flow measurement can provide high resolution images (5 microns resolution). We prepared three capillary tubes to reveal the effect of different concentrations of hematocrit ratio (HR). One tube serves as the control. The two other tubes contained different concentrations of HR (5%, 25%). Three different capillary tube inlet flow velocities were tested in the present study. The Reynolds number (Re) which is based on the capillary tube inner diameter ranges from Re=6 to 48. We calculated a Doppler shift of the power spectrum of the temporal interference fringes with Kasai autocorrelation function to achieve the velocity profile of the flow. As a result, SD-ODT systems could not detect the cell depletion layer in the present study due to the limitation of spatial resolution. Nevertheless, these systems were proven to be capable of observing the RBCs of blood.

  • Optical coherence tomography(OCT) is high resolution imaging system which can see the cross section of microscopic organs in the living tissue. In this paper, we analyze the relation between the light source and the resolution of modulated signal in Michelson interferometer. We construct 1-D OCT signal processing hardware such as amplifiers, filters, and demodulate electronic signals from the photo detector. In order to get 2-D OCT image, the synchronization among optical delay line, sample stage and A/D converter is dealt with. In experiments, we verify analog and digital signal processing blocks which apply to the stacks of glasses. Finally we aquire high resolution 2-D OCT image with respect to the onion tissue. We expect that this result can be applied to the medical instrument through performance improvement.

  • 본 연구는 도플러 광 단층촬영법이 미세유동 및 미세구조를 동시에 측정하는 첨단 장비임을 보일뿐 아니라 기존의 도플러 광 단층촬영법의 한계를 극복한 새로운 방법을 제시하였다. 기존의 도플러 광단층촬영법은 샘플로 입사되는 광과 같은 방향의 속도성분만을 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 임의의 속도벡터의 세 성분을 동시에 측정할 수 있는 다관점 도플러 광 단층촬영법을 개발하였고 심전도 게이트를 사용하여 맥동혈류유동의 3 차원 공간 내에서 위상속도 벡터장을 측정하는 심전도 게이트 다관점 도플러 광 단층촬영법의 타당성 조사를 햄스터 모래주머니 모델을 사용하여 수행하였다. 이를 통해 측정 가능한 속도성분의 수를 증가할 뿐 아니라 프레임 레이트가 심박에 비해 상대적으로 느리기 때문에 발생하는 엘리아싱 문제를 해결하였다.

  • 예혼합 분무화염의 유적군 연소 기구를 평가하기 위하여 레이저 가시화법, MICRO (multi-color integrated Cassegrain receiving optics) 및 PDA (phase Doppler anemometer) 광학계측 시스템을 이용하여 동시 시계열 계측을 실시하였다. 또한 유적군의 군연소수를 실험적으로 산출하여 이론해석에 적용하였을 경우 실제로 관찰되는 군연소 형태와 일치하는지에 대하여 검토하였다. 유적군 단면화상에 의해 확인된 모든 유적군에 대하여 실험적으로 군연소수 $G_c$를 산출한 결과 주로 내부 군연소와 외부 군연소로 분류되었으며 이론해석과 일치하였다. 또한 실제 관찰된 군연소 형태와 그 유적군의 군연소수를 이론해석에 적용한 경우에 군연소 형태가 일치하는 경우와 일치하지 않는 경우가 있었다. 일치하지 않는 원인은 군연소수를 유적의 기하학적 배치만으로 결정한 것이나 현상의 3차원성이 측정 결과에 영향을 미친 것이라고 생각되어진다.
