This paper focuses on three-dimensional measurement system of micro balls on micro Ball-Grid-Array(BGA) packages in-line. Most of visual inspection system still suffers from sophisticate reflection characteristics of micro balls. For accurate shape measurement of them, a specially designed visual sensor system is proposed under the sensing principle of phase shifting moire interferometry. The system consists of a pattern projection system with four projection subsystems and an imaging system. In the projection system, four subsystems have spatially different projection directions to make target objects experience the pattern illuminations with different incident directions. For the phase shifting, each grating pattern of subsystem is regularly moved by PZT actuator. To remove specular noise and shadow area of BGA balls efficiently, a compact multiple-pattern projection and imaging system is implemented and tested. Especially, a sensor fusion algorithm to integrate four information sets, acquired from multiple projections, into one is proposed with the basis of Bayesian sensor fusion theory. To see how the proposed system works, a series of experiments is performed and the results are analyzed in detail.

The effects of PT/PZ ratio variations in a modified PZT system on crystal structure and electrical properties were studied. $0.05Pb(Sn_{0.5}Sb_{0.5})O_3＋xPbTiO_3＋yPbZrO_3$＋0.4Wt% $MnO_2$(＝0.55PSS＋0.11PT＋0.84PZ＋0.4wt%$MnO_2$ ; x＋y=0.95) systems with variations of PT/PZ from 0.50/0.45 to 0.l1/0.84 were sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr, and then sintering density, crystal structure, dielctric, piezoelectric, pyroelectic and voltage responsity to infrared were investigated. Sintering density was increased from 7.52g/$\textrm {cm}^3$ to 7.82g/$\textrm {cm}^3$ with increasing PZ content. Dielectric constants at 1 KHz were decreased from 1147 to 193 with variation of PT/PZ from 0.50/0.45 to 0.l1/0.84 after poling of $4 KV_{DC}$/mm at $140^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. All Dielectric losses at 1 KHz were less than 1 % in all specimens. $K_{p}$ was increased near to 1 of PT/PZ, and maximun value of 48.2 % was .at 0.45/0.50. Pyroelectric coefficient of PT/PZ with 0.l1/0.84 was maximun value, 0.0541 C/$\m^2$K, and voltage responsity to infrared was 1.5 V.

This study investigated the setting characteristics of cement paste with varying proportions of fly ash replacement using the electro-mechanical impedance (EMI) sensing technique. Cement paste samples were prepared with a water-to-binder ratio of 40 %, substituting fly ash for 10 %, 20 %, and 30 % of the cement weight. Piezoelectric (PZT) sensors were embedded in the center of each cement paste sample to continuously monitor the EMI signals. Vicat needle test and semi-adiabatic calorimetry test were conducted to validate the reliability of the EMI sensing technique in monitoring the setting of cement paste. Experimental results revealed notable changes in the magnitude and resonant frequency of the EMI resonant peaks during the setting time. It was confirmed that the setting times measured through the EMI sensing technique were correlated with those determined by the Vicat needle test and semi-adiabatic calorimetry test.

본 연구에서는 대기 중 극 미량으로 존재하는 환경 유해 가스 성분을 검출할 수 있는 미세 소자로의 응용을 위해 마이크로 칸티레버를 제작하고 가스 센서로의 활용 가능성을 검토하였다. 마이크로 칸티레버는 크게 구동층 캐패시터로서 대표적인 압전 재료인 Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$ (PZT)를 사용하고 SiNx 박막을 지지층으로 하는 형태로 제작되었다. 제작된 마이크로 칸티레버는 치수 및 형상에 따라 17~29 KHz 의 기본 공진 주파수 값을 나타내었다. Electron beam evaporator를 이용한 copper (Cu) 박막의 단계적인 증착을 통해 칸티 레버 표면에 질량을 증가시키고 그에 따른 마이크로 칸티레버의 공진주파수 변화를 관찰한 결과 질량 증가에 대해 34 Hz/ng의 선형적인 주파수 감소를 나타내었으며, 이로부터 694.4 $\textrm{cm}^2$/g 의 gravimetric sensitivity factor를 얼을 수 있었다. 마이크로칸티레버의 가스 감지능력 시험을 위해 가스 흡착층으로 일차 알콜류의 vapor를 흡착 하는 것으로 보고된 poly methyl metacrytate (PMMA)를 마이크로 칸티레버 표면에 코팅하였다. 마이크로칸티 레버의 기본 공진 주파수 및 PMMA 흡착층 형성과 가스의 흡착에 따른 주파수 변화는 마이크로 칸티 레버로부터 의 전기적 신호를 이용하는 복소 임피던스 분석에 의해 측정되었다. PMMA가 코팅된 마이크로 칸티레버는 ethanol 및 methanol vapor 의 농도가 증가함에 따라 선형적인 공진주파수 감소를 나타내었으며, methanol vapor 의 경우 0.06 Hz/ppm 의 가스 검출 감도를 얻을 수 있었다.

The sensor/actuator active sensor diagnostics procedure, where the sensors/actuators are confirmed to be functioning properly during operation, is a critical component to successfully complete the structural health monitoring (SHM) process with large numbers of active sensors typically installed in a structure. The basis of this process is to track the changes in the capacitive value of piezoelectric materials, which shows up in measured admittance. Due to the temperature dependent nature of piezoelectric materials, we investigated the effects of temperature variations on sensor diagnostic process. The effect of temperature variations found to be remarkable, modifying the measured capacitive values significantly. In addition we analyzed the effect of bonding agents between a PZT patch and a host structure. This paper summarizes considerations needed to develop such sensor diagnostic processes, experimental procedures and results, and additional issues that can be used as guidelines for future investigations.

In recent years, as the demands of VBNS and VDSL increase, the development of kernel parts of optical communication such as PLC(Planar Light Circuit), Coupler, and WDM elements increases. The alignment and the attachment technology are very important in the fabrication of optical elements. In this Paper, the optical alignment characteristic of multi-axis ultra precision stage is studied. The alignment algorithms are studied for applying to the ultra precision multi-axis stage. The alignment algorithm is comprised of field search and peak search algorithms. The contour of optical power signals can be obtained by field search and the precise coordinate can be found out by peak search. Three kinds of alignments, such as 1 ch. input vs. 1 ch. output optical stack, 1 ch. input vs. 8 ch. output PLC stacks, and ferrule vs. ferrule, are performed for investigating the alignment characteristics.

Underwater acoustic communications have made considerable advances in the past decade. The purpose of this paper is to achieve the underwater communication by ultrasonic sensors and to investigate conditions of good underwater acoustic communicators. As a result of this experiments, the ultrasonic sensors, MA40E7R/S, made by Nicera can be used as ultrasonic transducers for underwater communication using AM(Amplitude Modulation) signal and Transmission Loss is 17.328[dB] at 65[cm]. To make a good underwater communicator, proper diameter of disk PZT transduers is the one of most important factors, because radiation of acoustic wave depends on proper diameter of transduers and the transmission loss strongly depends on the spreading loss.

The crimping connection is a permanent connection that maintains mechanical and electrical property for a long time by crimping two conductors. In this paper, we have done a basic study to decide normal or abnormal condition depending on crimping. Using PZT piezo-sensor, we have analyzed crimping waveforms according to the crimping height. And hence the normal or abnormal condition of crimping connections in real time could be decided by comparison of crimping waveforms in the cases of normal crimping, over crimping, under crimping and core omitting.

In this study, coupled mode piezoelectric devices for AE sensor application with excellent displacement and piezoelectric characteristics were simulated using ATILA FEM program, and then fabricated. Displacements and electromechanical coupling factors of the piezoelectric devices were investigated. The simulation results showed that excellent displacement and electromechanical coupling factor were obtained when the ratio of diameter/thickness was 1.0. The piezoelectric device of ${\Phi}/T$= 1.0 exhibited the optimum values of fr= 406 kHz, displacement= $6.11{\times}10^{-8}[m]$, $k_{eff}$= 0.648. The results show that the coupled vibration mode piezoelectric device is a promising candidate for the application of AE sensor piezoelectric device.
