  • 광섬유 센서의 주된 이점으로는 기계적 구동부가 없으므로 고신뢰성, 긴수명, 무전기적 간섭, 고응답속도, 저가이다. 본 연구에서는 공장설비 및 자동문 등과 같은 곳에서 많이 사용되어지는 자동장치의 오작동으로 인한 사고를 미연에 감지하여 인명피해를 줄이기 위하여 광섬유를 이용한 충격 및 압력센서를 제안 및 개발하였다. 센서의 원리로는 충격에 의해 다중모드 광섬유에서 발생하는 스펙클 패턴의 변화를 포토다이오드로 검출하는 방식이다. 광섬유에 충격의 세기를 변화하여 여러 차례 측정한 결과 충격의 세기의 변화에 따른 반응정도는 선형적으로 변하지는 않았으나 주어진 충격에 대해 민감하게 반응하는 것을 실험을 통하여 확인하였으며 광섬유의 피복 두께의 변화나 신호처리부에서의 증폭도를 조절함으로써 충격에 대한 반응감도를 조절할 수 있었다. 광섬유를 이용한 충격 및 압력센서의 장점으로는 점대점 방식이 아닌 라인 방식으로 설치하거나 측정함으로써 광섬유 전체가 센서역할을 하기 때문에 설치가 용이하고 감지범위가 넓어 센서로서의 우수한 특성을 가지므로 다양한 자동시스템 분야나 충격 및 압력센서로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • Optical imaging offers excellent spatio-temporal sensitivity that is unparalleled by any other perfusion based imaging techniques. We used in vivo optical recording of intrinsic signals (ORIS) to map neurovascular hemodynamics of perfusion, oximetry and membrane potential during epileptic events in rat and mouse neocortex. Studies of hemodynamic changes with ORIS alone were also performed in human. Laboratory studies in rodent epilepsy models have demonstrated a persistent increase in deoxygenated hemoglobin (Hbr) and a decrease in tissue oxygenation during interictal spikes and ictal events. This "epileptic dip", like the "initial dip" recorded during normal sensory processing, implies that the enormous rise in cerebral blood flow (CBF) is inadequate to meet the increased metabolic demands associated with synchronized epileptic activity. These findings are critically important to the interpretation of the perfusion-based imaging studies, such as fMRI. In addition, we visualized the effect of direct cortical electrical stimulation, an alterative epilepsy treatment. The optical data following direct cortical electrical stimulation showed that hemodynamic signals are sensitive to different electrical stimulation parameters. Furthermore, our recent data demonstrated that the application of unilateral electrical stimulation is able to elicit bilateral hemodynamic responses in rat neocortex.

  • A high accuracy ozone monitor using UV absorption method was developed for ambient ozone monitoring. The system was mainly composed of a high power pulsed xenon lamp as UV source, an optical spectrometer with a high sensitivity linear CCD array as UV detector and signal processing unit. The optical signal from the CCD array that provides unusually high response and excellent optical resolution for ozone concentration was converted to digital signal and the digital signal was displayed on screen using PC interface. The optical signal was propagated using optic fiber to reduce optical loss to increase the accuracy of the measuring system. This paper has been studied a interworking signalling protocol between two hybrid networks by analyzing Satellite B-ISDN architecture, DSS2 Layer 3 Signalling protocol, B-ISUP protocol, S-BISUP protocol stack and so on. Also in the paper, messages and primitives have been defined for B-ISDN's Connection Type, Ownership and each protocol in order to connect point-to-multipoint. The ozone sensing properties of the CCD ozone monitor was compared with those of the photo multiplier ozone monitor.

  • Full-range spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) with a 1-${\mu}m$ band light source is shown here. The phase of the reference beam is continuously stepped while the probing beam scans the sample laterally (B-scan). The two dimensional spectral interferogram obtained is processed by a Fourier transform method to obtain a complex spectrum leading to a full-range OCT image. A detailed mathematical explanation of the complex conjugate resolving method utilized is provided. The system's measurement speed was 7.96 kHz, the measured axial resolution was $9.6{\mu}m$ in air and the maximum sensitivity 99.4 dB. To demonstrate the effect of mirror image elimination, In vivo human eye pathology was measured.

  • Photopolymers have been of considerable due to their easy of processing and high sensitivity. Exposure of photopolymers to optical source produce recroding mark where the light initiates a photoreaction that occurs preferentially in regions of high illumination. The photoreaction typically involves polymerization of an acrylic or epoxy monomer dispersed together with a photoinitiators in a polymeric binder. A number of photopolymerizable materials have been developed to apply them in 3D optical recording such as holographic or 3-dimensional data storage. In this presentation, photopolymers derived from sol-gel matrix and transparent polymer binder are summarized. The effect of monomer composition and plasticizers on optical recording will be discussed based on the monomer transport during the photopolymerization.

  • In this study, we discussed the optical property to find the optimal condition of Te-based antireflection trilayer(ART) structure for a high density optical recording. It was found that the optical property was improved by suggesting the environmental parameters satisfied the optimum condition. As the results, the optimized(.lambda.=8.000${\AA}$.) thickness of the recording layer is 27${\AA}$, and the 1st and 2nd minimum ART conditions of dielectric layers are 1080${\AA}$, 3820${\AA}$, respectively. And the high SNR, the contrast ratio and the sensitivity are achieved by using the ART conditions.

  • 광섬유 ROTDR (Rayleigh Optical Time Domain Reflectometry)을 이용하여 침입자를 높은 감도와 넓은 영역에서 탐지할 수 있는 매설형 광섬유 센서의 개발에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 단위 길이당 넓은 면적을 감지 할 수 있는 매설형 광섬유 감지부를 설계 제작하고, 인가된 침입물체의 하중에 따른 신호특성을 고찰하였다. 일반 광통신용인 직경 1.5mm와 3.5mm인 광섬유를 길이 각각 4km를 사용하여 광섬유 굽힘손실을 발생시키는 침입감지 장치를 설계 제작하고, 상용 ROTDR의 조건설정은 파장 $1.55{\mu}m$, 거리범위 5km, 펄스폭 20 ns, S/N비가 5.7인 시스템으로 실험하였으며, 광섬유 RODTR 센서시스템의 측정신호로부터 침입자 신호를 찾아내기 위한 측정신호처리 시스템을 구성하였다. 광섬유 센서의 인가하중과 광손실값과의 관계는 거의 선형적으로 변함을 보였으며, 공간분해능은 2m로 측정되었고, 침입감지면적은 단위길이당 $1.3m^2$이고, 감도는 0.17dB/kg으로 외부 침입물체등을 감지하기에 충분히 높은 감도와 감지영역을 가짐을 알 수 있다.

  • This paper describes a 150-Mb/s monolithic optical receiver for plastic optical fiber link using a standard CMOS technology. The receiver integrates a photodiode using an N-well/P-substrate junction, a pre amplifier, a post amplifier, and an output driver. The size, PN-junction type, and the number of metal fingers of the photodiode are optimized to meet the link requirements. The N-well/P-substrate photodiode has a 200-${\mu}m$ by 200-${\mu}m$ optical window, 0.1-A/W responsivity, 7.6-pF junction capacitance and 113-MHz bandwidth. The monolithic receiver can successfully convert 150-Mb/s optical signal into digital data through up to 30-m plastic optical fiber link with -10.4 dBm of optical sensitivity. The receiver occupies 0.56-$mm^2$ area including electrostatic discharge protection diodes and bonding pads. To reduce unnecessary power consumption when the light is not over threshold or not modulating, a simple light detector and a signal detector are introduced. In active mode, the receiver core consumes 5.8-mA DC currents at 150-Mb/s data rate from a single 3.3 V supply, while consumes only $120{\mu}W$ in the sleep mode.

  • In this paper, a new electromagnetic circuit is proposed for an optical pickup actuator with high sensitivity. Contrary to those of conventional actuators, the proposed circuit has two focusing coils which are diagonally placed at the front and rear of a moving part. The configuration which makes the effective length of the focusing coil longer and the moving part lighter, is helpful in increasing the sensitivity of the actuator. However, the asymmetry of the moving part by two focusing coils causes flexible node vibrations in quite low frequency range. This paper shows that the design modification of the moving part for the reconfiguration of mass moment of inertia can reduce the mode vibrations.

  • 본 연구에서는 유한 요소법을 이용하여 작동 주파수 대역이 10kHz까지 이고, 무지향성 감도 특성을 갖는 광음향 변환맨드랠(mandrel)형 하이드로폰의 최적 구조를 설계하고자 하였다. 최적화 변수들은 유연성 구조물인 맨드랠의 형상과 청음기의 각부분 물성들이다. 맨드랠의 반경보다 길이 혹은 몰딩(molding) 두께가 증가할수록 광-음향 수중 청음기의 감도는 증가하였고, 맨드랠과 몰딩의 탄성 계수 및 포아손 비가 낮을수록 감도가 향상되는 경향을 보여주었다. 그리고 맨드랠 재료의 길이가 감소할수록 혹은 탄성율이 증가할수록 사용 주파수 영역이 증가하고, 하이드로폰의 길이가 짧을수록 감도의 무지향 특성이 향상 되었다. 이상의 결과를 이용하여 감도가 $30 {\times} 10_{-7}$ Rad./Pa에 이르고, 작동 주파수 영역이 10 kHz까지이며 5 kHz 주파수에서 무지향성을 갖는 유연성 구조물인 맨드랠형 광음향 하이드로론을 설계하였다.
