We designed and fabricated a planner-type thermoelastic microactuator with a latch-up operation for optical switching. Latch-up actuation is prerequisite to implement an optical switch with low power consumption and high reliability. The proposed microactuator consists of four cantilever-shaped thermal actuators, four displacement linkages, two shallow arch-shaped leaf springs, a mobile shuttle mass with a micromirror, and four elastic boundaries. The structural layer of the planar microactuator is phosphorous-doped 12$\mu\textrm{m}$-thick polysilicon, and the sacrificial layer is LTO(Low Temperature Oxide) of 3$\mu\textrm{m}$thickness. The displacement of actuator is as large as 3$\mu\textrm{m}$when the length of actuation bar is 100$\mu\textrm{m}$in length at 5V input voltage. The proposed microactuators have advantages of easy assembly with other optical component by way of fiber alignment in the substrate plane, and its fabrication process features simplicity while retaining batch-fabrication economy.

Anisotropy profile of a rubbed polyimide film is investigated using both a modified ultra high precision transmission ellipsometer and the analysis software previously developed to determine the optic axis distribution of discotic liquid crystals in the wide view film. The distorted sinusoidal variation of the ellipsometric constants obtained at an oblique angle of incidence indicates that the optic axis varies from $14.7^{\circ}$ to $40.6^{\circ}$ from the sample plane. The magnitude and distribution of anisotropy is expressed in terms of no, ne, and the cosine-shaped tilt angle distribution of the optic axis in a rubbed polyimide film.

시료를 회전시키는 기존의 시료회전형 타원계에서 시료를 고정시키고 편광자모듈을 회전시키는 모듈회전형 타원계로 구조를 변경하고 광원교체와 회전모듈 동기화, 배경 미세이방성 보정 등을 통해서 위상지연값 측정정밀도를 $3{\sigma}$ <0.005 nm 까지 향상시켰다. 개선된 모듈회전형 타원계를 사용하고 RVD(Retardation Vector Difference) 방법을 도입함으로써 1.0 nm 정도의 잔류이방성을 가지는 유리기층의 효과를 배제한 러빙된 Polyimide 배향막의 순수 배향효과만에 의한 초미세 광학이방성을 정밀하게 측정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 순수 러빙으로 인한 배향막의 위상지연값은 0.05 nm 에서 0.15 nm 정도의 크기를 가짐을 확인하였다.

We introduce the Transformable Reflective Telescope (TRT) kit that applies an aluminum profile as a base plate for precise, stable, and lightweight optical system. It has been utilized for optical surface measurements, developing alignment and baffle systems, observing celestial objects, and various educational purposes through Research & Education projects. We upgraded the TRT kit using the aluminum profile and truss and isogrid structures for a high-end optical test device that can be used for prototyping of precision telescopes or satellite optical systems. Thanks to the substantial aluminum profile and lightweight design, mechanical deformation by self-weight is reduced to maximum 67.5 ㎛, which is an acceptable misalignment error compared to its tolerance limits. From the analysis results of non-linear vibration simulations, we have verified that the kit survives in harsh vibration environments. The primary mirror and secondary mirror modules are precisely aligned within 50 ㎛ positioning error using the high accuracy surface finished aluminum profile and optomechanical parts. The cross laser module helps to align the secondary mirror to fine-tune the optical system. The TRT kit with the precision aluminum mirror guarantees high quality optical performance of 5.53 ㎛ Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) at the field center.

The high-precision laser scriber carries out scribing alumina ceramic substrates for manufacturing ultra-small chip resistors. The ceramic substrates are loaded, aligned, scribed, transferred, and unloaded. The entire process is fully automated, thereby minimizing the scribing cycle time of the ceramic substrates and improving the throughput. The scriber consists of the laser optical system, pick-up module of ceramic substrates, pre-alignment module, TH axis drive work table, automation module for substrate loading / unloading, and high-speed scribing control S/W. The loader / unloader unit, which has the greatest influence on the scribing cycle time of the substrates, carries the substrates to the work table that carries out the cutting line work by driving the X and Y axes as well as by adsorbing the ceramic substrates. The loader / unloader unit consists of the magazine up / down part, X-axis drive part for conveying the substrates to the left and right direction, and the vision part for detecting the edge of the substrate for the primary pre-alignment of the substrates. In this paper, the laser scribing machining simulation is performed by applying the instrument mechanism of each component module. Through this study, the scribing machining process is first verified by analyzing the process operation and work area of each module in advance. In addition, the scribing machining process is optimized by comparing and analyzing the scribing cycle time of one ceramic substrate according to the alignment stage module speed.

We report a novel design of the "linear astigmatism-free" three mirror system (LAF-TMS). In general, the linear astigmatism is one of the most dominant aberration degrading image qualities in common off-axis systems. The proposed LAF-TMS is based on a confocal off-axis three mirror system, where higher order aberrations are minimized via our numerical optimization. The system comprises three pieces of aluminum-alloy freeform mirrors that are feasible to be fabricated with current single-point diamond turning (SPDT) machining technology. The surface figures, dimensions, and positions of mirrors are carefully optimized for a LAF performance. For higher precision-positioning mechanism, we also included alignment parts: shims (for tilting) and L-brackets (for decentering). Any possible mechanical deformation due to assembly process as well as 1-G gravity, and its influence on optical performances of the system are investigated via the finite element (FE) analysis. The LAF-TMS has low f-number and a wide field of view, which is promising for sky monitoring programs such as supernova surveys.

대형 비구면의 측정을 위하여 자동무수차점 방식의 2매 구성 널 렌즈를 설계하였고, 제작과 정렬 오차에 따른 측정 정밀도의 한계를 이론적으로 분석해 보았다. 측정 정밀도의 한계를 결정짓는 주요한 공차 요소는 널 렌즈면의 불규칙도(irregularity)임을 확인하였으며, 불규칙도의 가공 정도에 따라 5λ/100∼4λ/1000 정도까지의 신뢰할 수 있는 측정 정밀도가 한정지어졌다. 이로써 실제의 정렬 오차 및 널 렌즈 제작오차까지 고려하여 신뢰할 수 있는 정밀도 한계를 제시할 수 있었다.

광결합 효율(Fiber coupling efficiency)을 개선하기 위해서는 Laser diode에서 넓은 각도로 방출된 빛을 광섬유의 중심(Core) 부분으로 모아주는 집광렌즈(Collimating lens)가 필수적이다. 현재 사용되는 집광렌즈는 형틀(Mold)을 이용한 글래스 몰드(Glass mold) 공법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 이 방식은 생산단가가 저렴하지만, 정교한 성형이 어렵고 구면수차와 같은 품질문제가 있다. 본 연구는 기존의 글래스 몰드 공법을 반도체 공정으로 대체함으로써 표면 가공의 정밀도를 높이고, 렌즈의 재질 또한 반도체 공정에 적합한 실리콘으로 변경하였다. 반도체공정은 PR을 이용한 포토리소그래피(Photolithography) 공정과 플라즈마를 이용한 건식 식각(Dry etching) 공정으로 구성된다. 광결합 효율은 실리콘 렌즈의 광학적 특성을 평가하기 위해 초정밀 정렬 시스템을 사용하여 측정되었다. 그 결과, 렌즈 직경 $220{\mu}m$ 일 때의 최대 광결합 효율은 50%로 측정되었고, 렌즈 직경 $210-240{\mu}m$ 범위에서는 최고 광결합 효율 대비 5% 이하의 광결합 특성저하를 보여줌을 확인하였다.

Although laser interferometer measurement system has advantages of measurement range and accuracy, it has some disadvantages when measurement of multi degrees of freedom of motion are required. Because the traditional error measurement methods for geometric errors (two straightness and three angular errors) of a slide of machine tools measures error components one at a time. It may also create an optical path difference and affect the measurement accuracy. In order to identify and compensate for geometric errors of a moving rigid body in real time processes, an on-line error measurement system for simultaneous detection of the five error components of a moving object is required. Using laser alignment technique and some optoelectronic components, an on-line measurement system with 5 degrees of freedom was developed for the geometric error detection in this study Performance verification of the system has been performed on an error generating mechanism. Experimental results show the feasibility of this system for identifying geometric errors of a slide of machine tools.
