This study was performed to prepare the verification film for localizing beam-target position with the Photon Knife radiosurgery system (PKRS) using linear accelerator(Mitsubishi, Model ML-15MDX). We developed a laser calibration system using a reticle of transparent lucite to detect Inlet and outlet beams. We verified fixation of the second collimator with film mounted on a holder in the shape of an octagon block 5cm apart from the isocenter. The film was exposed to photon beams of linear accelerator at an interval of 45 degrees during the gantry movement. There were no shifts in the beam of the second collimator during gantry movement. We used a position marker which is designed a head-shaped small lead block and a 10 mm in diameter of steel bead in the plastic tube. The position marker helped to verify the beam directions with patient position in multi-arc and trans-multi-arc of PKRS The verification of beam alignments showed an average 0.8$\pm$0.26 mm discrepancy in LINAC-gram images of PKRS. In our study, the couch movement was $\pm$5 mm laterally, while it shook $\pm$ 2 mm toward the couch axis. The couch, however, was immediately returned to the initial site after shaking. Thus, we postulate that the beam-target position(s) should be verified with LINAC-gram in a stereotactic radiosurgery system to achieve the accuracy of beam-target alignment.

We propose configurations for a transflective in-plane switching (IPS) cell using muti-domain structures. Usually, the cell configurations for a transflective liquid crystal(LC) cell have a complicated structure, because retardation change of transmissive part and reflective part are not same. The transflective LC cell should have two configurations for each part, such as a multi-cell gap structure. With the ion-beam alignment and the horizontal switching LC cell, a simple structure for a transflective LC cell is proposed. The configuration only adopts one cell gap structure, which may help the enhancement of a yield. Their original optical properties in conventional transmissive and reflective type IPS liquid crystal dispaly(LCD) are kept, it shows the wide-viewing angle and the good wavelength dispersion characteristics.

Height micrometer is a kind of end standards. It consists of a stack of gage blocks which is capable of moving up and down by a micrometer head. Height micrometer requires calibration with very high accuracy because its resolution is generally 1 .mu. m and its accuracy is higher than few micro- meters. Conventionally, comparison with gage blocks is used to calibrate height micrometer, but it is less accurate and time consuming method. A height micrometer calibration system using a laser interferometer instead of gage blocks has been developed. The measuring range of the system is 300mm, and the accuracy is better than ${\pm}0.5{\mu}m$ A new method of maintaining the laser-beam alignment is described as well.

The measuring method of large object using the pattern matching is discussed in the paper. It is hard and expensive to get the complete 3D data when the object is large or exceeds the limit of measuring devices. The large object is divided into several smaller areas and is scanned several times to get the data of all the pieces. These data are aligned to get the complete 3D data using the pattern matching method. The point pattern matching method and transform matrix algorithm are used for aligning. The laser slit beam and CCD camera is applied for experimental measurement. Visual C++ on Window98 is implemented in processing the algorithm.

A novel geometric solution for uniform bend transition in a pi cell has proposed. In order to obtain the uniform bend transition, we applied hybrid domain structure to the edge of a LC cell by using ion-beam alignment method. As a result, we confirmed that the uniform bend transition has arisen from the edge to the center. From the proposed structure, we expect that the reliable and uniform bend transition can be achieved in the pi cell.

The improvement of speed and ride comfort requires a very horizontally and vertically rigid and non-flexible alignment. It is inevitable to construct many bridges depending on the topography of landscapes and obliged to lay turnouts on the bridges. In that case, special considerations have to be taken into account, i.e. permissible stresses of turnout components and limitations of displacements of bridge and turnouts. In this studies, numerical analyses for turnout/bridge interaction are carried out using commercial program LUSAS. The target of analytical model is the turnout layed near Pyeongrae-Hopyeng station on Kyeongchun line. The lead rail, stock rails, and the bridge are modelled using beam elements. Fasteners and ballast resistances are modelled using bi-linear spring elements. The turnout behaviors are investigated by varying the parameters such as span length of bridge, spring coefficients, and thermal loads.

무선광통신기술은 케이블의 신설 또는 재 설치가 어려운 구간이나 보안성이 요구되는 무선전송 구간에 많이 사용된다. 또한 기존의 무선주파수와 상호간섭이 적으며, 구현이 간편하여 실내의 짧은 광 전송구간과 빌딩간의 고속광전송에 그 이용이 점점 증가하고 있다$^{(1-5)}$ . LOS(Line of sight)방식의 광연결에서는 광원으로부터의 출력빔의 방향과 광검출기의 위치가 잘 정렬되어야 한다. 광원으로부터 광검출기 사이의 신호전송매체가 자유공간이므로 외부의 기계적 진동에 의하여 광원의 위치가 미소하게 변경되는 경우, 출력광의 진행방향이 광검출기의 위치에 일치하지 않아 수신부에서 검출되는 신호는 매우 약해질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 경우에 효과적으로 사용할 수 있는 자동정렬형 광검출구조를 개발하였다. 자동정렬형 광검출기의 구조도는 그림[1]과 같다.

We investigated a high-output ower, periodically poled lithium niobate(PPLN) optical parametric oscillator(OPO) pumped by a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. Given the low optical damage threshold and the limited aperture (0.5mm thick) of PPLN, we tried to maximize the signal output power in a linear cavity consisting of two flat mirrors with a loosely focused pump beam. It is found that this simple cavity structure allowed a robust OPO operation, which was not sensitive to alignment compared with the conventional ones using concave mirrors. A maximum energy of 100$\mu$J/pulse was achieved for the signal at 1.36${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, while the oscillation threshold was 0.3 mJ/pulse for the pump at 1064 nm.

The periodic transmission spectrum of a solid etalon for wide-band capability is analyzed both theoretically and experimentally. In the transmission spectrum with an incident area of a photodetector, the peak wavelength and transmittance are deeply dependent on the incident angle and the divergence angle of the input laser beam. A thermal adjustment for a solid etalon is an optional way to control the transmission spectrum instead of the inefficient fine-angle alignment. In the result, we present the deviations of free spectral range (FSR) by the change in angle and temperature over wide wavelength range.

A novel alignment-free micro-optic MZI filter has been demonstrated. The filter is composed of two fiber-pigtailed collimators and a beam-splittingplate with a periodically etched stripe pattern. We fabricated the plate through a standard lithographic formulation process by using a pyrex substrate glass with SU-8 resist coating on its one of the surfaces. The maximum insertion loss of the implemented filter was less than 2 dB over 1000 nm to 1600 nm and the extinction ratio was larger than 33 dB. The measured PDL within the 3-dB pass band of the filter was less than 0.15dB and the maximum extinction ratio variation was less than 2 dB even when the worst alignment error occured.
