Thin films of phase-pure perovskite (P $b_{0.72}$L $a_{0.28}$) $Ti_{0.93}$ $O_3$(PLT) were deposited in-situ onto Pt/Ti/ $SiO_2$/Si substrates by pulsed laser deposition. We have systematically investigated the variation of grain sizes depending on the process condition. Both in-situ annealing and ex-situ annealing treatments have been compared depending on the annealing time. Two-step process to grow (P $b_{0.72}$L $a_{0.28}$) $Ti_{0.93}$ $O_3$(PLT) films was adopted and verified to be useful to enlarge the grain size of the film and to enhance the leakage current characteristics. The grain sizes of PLT thin films were successfully controlled 260 to 350 nm by changing process parameters. Electrical properties including dielectric constant, ferroelectric characteristics, crystallization and leakage current of PLT thin films were shown to be strongly inf1uenced by grain size. Also PLT thin films on p-type(100) Si substrate will be fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser with different wavelengths of 355, 532 and 1064 nm. Effect of the variation of laser wavelength on dielectric properties will be discussed. Microstructural and electrical properties of the film were investigated by C-V measurement leakage current measurement and SEM.ent and SEM.

펄스형 Nd:YAG 레이저는 연속형에 비해 효율이 높고 높은 첨두 출력(peak power)이 가능하므로 가공에 있어서 여러 가지 장점이 있다. 더구나 레이저 펄스 모양을 가변시키는 기능은 펄스형 Nd:YAG 레이저로 가공하기 힘든 특수분야에까지 가공을 가능하게 하였다. 본 연구에서는 3개의 플래쉬램프를 순차 점등시키는 MD(multi-discharge)방식의 레이저 시스템을 설계 및 제작하여, 램프 점등 시간의 변화에 따른 레이저 빔의 펄스폭과 펄스 세기(펄스 크기)를 조사하였다. 즉, PIC One-Chip microprocessor를 이용하여 실시간으로 3개의 플래쉬램프를 순차적으로 점등시켜 보다 다양한 펄스 모양을 만드는 기술을 개발하였다. 위 방식의 장점은 램프의 점등 지연시간을 0 $\sim$ 10ms 까지 다양하게 변화시킬 수 있고, 외부의 키보드로 실시간 제어가 가능하므로 보다 편리하게 펄스 모양을 변화시킬 수 있다. 또한 긴 펄스를 만들 수 있어 산업용 가공이나 의료용으로 널리 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper presents the spray characteristics of the simplex fuel nozzle with different working fluids for the gas turbine engine. Spray characteristics can be changed with viscosity, surface tension and density. In this research, water and test fluid type 2 which has similar characteristics of the kerosene are used as a working fluid. Spray visualization was performed by using ND-Yag laser and droplet size was measured by using PDPA(Phase doppler particle analyzer) system. The test results show that spray shapes and SMD distributions of two working fluids are similar at main spray region.

Spray characteristics for the simplex atomizer are investigated. The atomizer was tested with kerosene which is generally used as a fuel for gas turbine engines. But it is very difficult and dangerous to measure spray performance. So water is used as a working fluid for measuring the droplet information. In this study, spray visualization was performed by using ND-Yag Laser and droplet size was measured by using PDPA system by using two different working fluid such as water and test fluid # 2 which has similar characteristics of the kerosene. The test results show that SMD of water bigger than test fluid # 2 about 5$\sim$15 mm because surface tension of water is higher by a factor of 3. But the spray angles and the spray shapes have similarity

A noncontact nondestructive testing (NDT) method is proposed to detect the damage of pipeline structures and to identify the location of the damage. To achieve this goal, a scanning laser source actuation technique is utilized to generate a guided wave and scans a specific area to find damage location more precisely. The ND: YAG pulsed laser is used to generate Lamb wave and a piezoelectric sensor is installed to measure the structural responses. The measured responses are analyzed using three dimensional Fourier transformation (3DFT). The damage-sensitive features are extracted by wavenumber filtering based on the 3D FT. Then, flaw imaging techniques of a pipeline structures is conducted using the damage-sensitive features. Finally, the pipes with notches are investigated to verify the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed NDT approach.

다이오드 레이저로 펌핑되는 Nd:YAG 매질에 형성된 열 복굴절은 레이저 출력과 빔질의 저하를 초래한다. 선편광된 레이저 출력을 얻기 위해서는 주로 공진기 내에 선형 편광자를 삽입하게 되는데, 레이저 매질에 형성된 열 복굴절에 의한 왜곡 편광된 레이저 빔이 편광자에 의해 반사되어 공진기 손실을 초래한다. 편광 왜곡에 의한 레이저 빔의 손실을 줄이거나 이중 초점을 제거하기 위해 주로 사용되어지는 광 소자는 Faraday 회전자, λ/4 판, 석영 회전자 등이 사용되어진다.$^{(1-5)}$ 90$^{\circ}$ 석영 회전자와 Faraday 회전자는 공진기 내에 두 개의 동일한 구조를 갖는 레이저를 이용할 경우 사용되고 λ/4 판 과 45$^{\circ}$ Faraday 회전자는 주로 단일 레이저 헤드의 복굴절 보상을 위해 사용되어진다. 45$^{\circ}$ Faraday 회전자는 이론적으로 완벽히 열복굴절에 의한 편광 왜곡을 보상한다. 그러나, 열복굴절을 완벽히 보상하기 위해서는 레이저 빔이 항상 레이저 매질의 같은 지점을 통과해야 한다. 실제적으로 레이저 매질에서는 열에 의한 열 렌즈 효과가 있기 때문에 레이저 빔이 항상 같은 지점을 통과하지 않게 된다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 공진기 내에 열 렌즈 효과를 보상하기 위한 렌즈를 삽입하거나 레이저 헤드를 공진기 거울 가까이 설치하여야 한다. Faraday 회전자는 길이가 길기 때문에 레이저 헤드를 공진기 거울 가까이 설치하기는 어렵고 항상 열 렌즈 효과를 보상해주는 광학 소자가 있어야 하는 단점이 있다. 반면 λ/4 판은 완벽한 편광 왜곡을 보상해주지 않아 레이저 손실을 초래하지만 두께가 얇아 레이저 헤드와 공진기 거울을 근접해서 설치할 수 있어서 몇몇 연구자에 의해 연구되어 졌다.$^{(3)}$ 본 연구에서는 λ/4 판을 이용하고 편광기에서 반사된 빔을 공진기에 되반사 시키는 구조를 사용하여 선 편광된 레이저의 출력과 빔의 질을 개선 시켰다.

We have studied local magnetization reversal and magnetic properties induced by Laser annealing method in the strip-patterned Ta/NiFe/FeMn/Ta and Ta/NiFe/FeMn/NiFe/Ta multilayers fabricated by ion-beam deposition. The films were exposed to the emission of the DPSS (Diode Pumped Solid State, Nd:YAG) laser under 600 G. The laser beam intensity increased up to 440 mW. When the laser illuminated the patterned film with the power of above 200 m W, the intensity of MR peak located in +87 Oe shrunk. A new MR peak was generated at -63 Oe. When the laser power is 400 mW, the location of positive MR peak(H$\sub$ex/) was changed slightly from +87 Oe to +76 Oe, and the MR ratio was decreased from 0.9% to 0.1 %. On the other hand, the new (negative) MR peak shifted from -63 Oe to -80 Oe, with the MR ratio increased up to 0.3%. As the illuminated area expanded, the intensity of opposite MR peak increased and it of negative MR peak decreased. This proved that the local reversal of exchange biasing should be realized by laser annealing.

Low-cost, high efficiency solar cells are tremendous interests for the realization of a renewable and clean energy source. ZnTe based solar cells have a possibility of high efficiency with formation of an intermediated energy band structure by impurity doping. In this work, ZnO/ZnTe:Cr and ZnO/i-ZnTe structures were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. A pulsed (10 Hz) Nd:YAG laser operating at a wavelength of 266 nm was used to produce a plasma plume from an ablated a ZnTe target, whose density of laser energy was 10 J/cm2. The base pressure of the chamber was kept at approximately $4{\times}10-7Torr$. ZnTe:Cr and i-ZnTe thin films with thickness of 210 nm were grown on p-Si substrate, respectively, and then ZnO thin films with thickness of 150 nm were grown on ZnTe:Cr layer under oxygen partial pressure of 3 mTorr. Growth temperature of all the films was set to $250^{\circ}C$. For fabricating ZnO/i-ZnTe and ZnO/ZnTe:Cr solar cells, indium metal and Ti/Au grid patterns were deposited on back and front side of the solar cells by using thermal evaporator, respectively. From the fabricated ZnO/ZnTe:Cr and ZnO/i-ZnTe solar cell, dark currents were measured by using Keithley 2600. Solar cell parameters were obtained under Air Mass 1.5 Global solar simulator with an irradiation intensity of 100 mW/cm2, and then the photoelectric conversion efficiency values of ZnO/ZnTe:Cr and ZnO/i-ZnTe solar cells were measured at 1.5 % and 0.3 %, respectively.

A new design of four-pass dye laser amplifier affording a narrow-bandwidth pulsed output is demonstrated to suppress the amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) carried by the amplifier output and reduce the possibility of parasitic oscillation in the amplifier. By the direct pulsed amplification of a cw 100 mW dye laser under a Q-switched doubled Nd:YAG laser pumping with energy of 5.6 mJ/pulse, high-peak-power pulsed output with 1.5-mJ energy in 130-MHz bandwidth is obtained corresponding to a power gain greater than $2{\times}10^6$ and an energy efficiency of 27%. The ASE ratio in the four-pass amplifier output is dramatically reduced by using a diffraction grating in the amplifier. Compared with the results obtained from the normal operation of the amplifier with no frequency-selective device, the ASE ratio is reduced by a factor in excess of 10 to remain under 1.5% of the amplifier output whereas the total output energy is slightly increased by ~4%.
