We investigated surface-roughness-dependent optical loss in a plasmonic cavity consisting of a semiconductor nanodisk/silver nanopan structure. Numerical simulations show that the quality factors of plasmonic resonant modes significantly depend on the surface roughness of the dielectric-metal interface in the cavity structure. In the transverse-magnetic-like whispering-gallery plasmonic mode excited in a structure with disk diameter of 1000 nm, the total quality factor decreased from 260 to 130 with increasing root-mean-square (rms) surface roughness from 0 to 5 nm. This quantitative theoretical study shows that the smooth metal surface plays a critical role in high-performance plasmonic devices.

The ultra-precision cutting is a key technique for the manufacture of optical components such as aluminium mirrors, electroless nickel mirror, plastic mirror in a variety of advanced science and technology applications. The paper presents experimental results of ultra-precision diamond fuming of electroless nickel materials. In general, the cutting condition such as feed rate and depth of rut, have effect on the surface roughness in ultra-precision diamond turning. To obtain an optimal cutting condition, we studied the effect of the cutting speed. the tool length, the tool nose radius, the feed rate and depth of cut on the surface roughness. So, the relationship of the surface roughness and cutting condition has been clarified. From the experimental results, the machined surface roughnesses were obtained less than 1nm rms.

An experimental study on the grinding temperature, surface roughness and Acoustic Emission(AE) signals was conducted with different shapes of wheel. The grinding characteristics for slotted shapes of wheel changed by width and helical angle, were compared with those by general one. Lower grinding temperature was obtained for 30$^{\circ}$helical angle with 10mm width and Root Mean square(RMS) values of AE signals were lower for slotted shapes rather than general one. Surface roughness characteristics of slotted shapes found to be rough but the value of roughness for 45$^{\circ}$helical angel with 6mm width, represented to similar tendency general one.

To obtain the surface roughness with range from 10nm to 1nm we need the study of ultra-precision machine, cutting condition, and materials. In this paper, the optimal cutting conditions for getting mirror surface of aluminum alloy have been examined experimentally by using ultra-precision turning machine and sing1e crystal diamond tool. In generally, the cutting conditions such as feed rate and depth of cut have effect on the surface roughness in ultra-precision turning. The result of surface roughness was measured by the ZYGO New View 200. Therefore, The surface roughness and cutting conditions has been clarified. The smooth surface of aluminum alloy less than 1nm RMS, 1nm Rmax can be obtained by the ultra-precision cutting.

Production and measurement of a super-polished few-ppm-scattering mirror substrate are investigated. In order to improve the surface roughness directly determining scattering, the super-polishing process using Bowl-Feed technique is tried. The surface quality of the super-polished substrate is estimated by the phase-measuring interferometer. For the reliable roughness measurement using the interferometer, data averaging method is applied so that the optimal data averaging condition, 30 phase-data averaging and 20 intensity-data averaging, minimizing the measurement error is experimently searched. Based on the optimal data averaging condition, surface roughness of home-made mirror substrate is measured to be less than $0.5{\AA}$ rms corresponding to 2-ppm total-integrated-scattering.

In this paper, a new error compensating technique for form-error compensation of rough-surface profile obtained by contact stylus profilometer is proposed. By the method, the real contact points of rough-surface and diamond stylus can be estimated and the measured profile data corrected. To verify the compensation effect, the properties(Ra, RMS, Kurtosis, Skewness) of measured profile data and compensated data were compared. And, the cumulative RMS slope was proposed to assess the compensated effect of upper area of profile. The results show that the measuring error could be compensated very well in amplitude parameters and in proposed cumulative RMS slope by the developed form-error compensating technique.

TiN films were deposited on high speed steels by plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD), cathode arc ion plating (CAIP) and reactive magnetron sputtering (RMS). The properties of the films deposited by the three different methods were compared. The preferred oriented plane of PACVD-TiN is (200) and those of CAIP-TiN and RMS-TiN are (111). PACVD-TiN shows a dome surface and a microstructure having small grains. CAIP-TiN shows the highest microhardness and the best adhesion strength of the three because it has a dense microstructure and an ill-defined interface. But is shows the greatest surface roughness due to the Ti droplet created by the arc. RMS-TiN shows a microstructure having large voids so that its properties in microhardness and adhesion are the worst of the three.

The characteristics of dynamic wheel loads of heavy vehicles running on bridge and rigid surface are investigated by using three-dimensional analytical model. The simulated dynamic wheel loads of vehicles are compared with the experimental results carried out by Road-Vehicles Research Institute of Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) to verify the validity of the analytical model. Also another comparison of the analytical result with the experimental one for Umeda Entrance Bridge of Hanshin Expressway in Osaka, Japan, is presented in this study. The agreement between the analytical and experimental results is satisfactory and encouraging the use of the analytical model in practice. Parametric study shows that the dynamic increment factor (DIF) of the bridge and RMS values of dynamic wheel loads are fluctuated according to vehicle speeds and vehicle types as well as roadway roughness conditions. Moreover, there exist strong dominant frequency resemblance between bounce motion of vehicle and bridge response as well as those relations between RMS values of dynamic wheel loads and dynamic increment factor (DIF) of bridges.

ThisPaper investigates the feasibility of using acoustic emission signal analysis for the detection of built-up edge during machining. Experiments were conducted on a CNC-lathe using conventional carbide insert tools under various cutting conditions. The cutting forces were also measured for comparisons. Experimental evidence is presented which indicates that the presence of a built-up edge can significantly affect the generation of acoustic emission in metal cutting. It is shown that under conditions in which a built-up edge is generated, the variation of $AE_{rms}$ signal with cutting speed can be quite different from the generally accepted linear, monotonic increase as previously reported. The feasibility of utilizing $AE_{rms}$ in built-up edge sensing is suggested.
