The performance of slider of a hard disk drive affects the durability of the system. Particularly, the flying ability of the slider is critical in terms of surface damage and head crash. In this work, the take-off characteristics of the slider for various types of laser zone textured bump geometries were investigated. Also, the effect of ambient pressure on the flying characteristics of the slider was experimentally observed. An index of air density which can be used as a parameter for evaluating the flying characteristic is introduced.

최근 IMO에서는 온실가스 배출을 규제화 하고자 하는 동향이 있으며 조만간 선박에서 온실가스 배출의 규제가 실현될 것으로 예상된다. 선박에서 배출되는 온실가스는 CO$_2$가 대부분을 차지하고 있으며 세계경제상황에 따른 영향이 고려되지만 지속적으로 증가추세에 있는 CO$_2$를 감소시키기 위한 아국의 대처방안이 필요한 시점이다. 또한 향후 발효될 EEDI를 소개하고 결과적으로 GHG를 저감시키기 위한 방안인 선형개선, 폐열회수시스템, 친환경연료사용기관, SEMP 등에 관한 내용을 다루어 보았다. 이 보고서에서는 GHG를 비롯한 NOx, SOx 및 PM과 같은 유해배출물질을 Top Down방식으로 평가함으로써 선박에서 기인하는 대기오염물질 관련 국내정책 및 해운산업의 장기적인 발전전략에 유용하게 사용될 것으로 기대한다.

This paper represents the lateral first-order mode characteristics for the semiconductor laser diodes using a two-dimensional numerical simulator. In order to analyze the lateral first-order mode characteristics, Helmholtz wave equation is solved twice for the lateral fundamental and the first-order mode considering the mode gain, total losses, and the recombination rate due to the stimulated emission radiation for the each mode independantly. Through this procedure, we find that the lateral first-order mode was easily guided as increasing the stripe width for the index-guiding structures, and that the lateral first-order mode seems to be dominated in the distribution of total light intensity when its output power reaches nearly half of that of the lateral fundamental mode. This results may be used to design the device structure which guides only the lateral fundamental mode.

As the aircraft noise become the serious matter nowadays, registrations controlling the noise emission from aircraft are established to set up noise protection areas such as residential buildings and schools. Several methods are used to assess the noise impact of an airport on its surroundings. WECPNL is used as the aircraft legislation noise index in Korea and in Japan. In this paper, experiments were made to assess the total noise impact of Kwangju airport area by using WECPNL. Also restrictions related to buildings in this area and grants were reviewed to improve building attention in the inner zone.

Spatial and temporal dynamics arising in a photorefractive crystal(BaTiO3) during the process of double phase conjugation was studied experimentally. We studied the dynamical effects caused by the buildup of the diffraction grating and turn on of phase conjugated beams, as well as the spatial effects caused by the finite transverse coupling of beams and the propagation direction of beams. We observed conical emission in DPCM. We believe that various temporal and spatial instabilities are due to movement of the nonlinear grating. For a real beam coupling and constructive interaction of interference fringes in the crystal, we observed steady, periodic, irregular temporal behavior. And, by the calculation of the correlation index, we found that the spatial correlation decreased as the transverse interaction region was increased.

Quantum dots were designed within a GRIN-SCH(Graded index - Separate confinement Heterostructure) heterostructure to create a high power InAlAs/AlGaAs laser diode. 808 nm light emission was with a quantum dot composition of In0.665Al0.335As and wetting layer composition of Al0.2Ga0.8As by LASTIP simulation software. Typical characteristics of GRIN structures such as high confinement ratios and Gaussian beam profiles were shown to still apply when quantum dots are used as the active media. With a dot density of 1.0x1011 dots/cm2, two quantum dot layers were found to be good enough for low threshold, high-power laser applications.

We present an analysis of the soft X-ray emission of MRK 841 to investigate its long-term variation. The light variation of MRK 841 for three different energy bands of soft, medium, and hard values were studied. The maximum variability with a factor of 5 for about two years was confirmed at all three different bands. The light curves exhibit a gradual variation of brightness. In addition to a gradual variation, the short- term or micro variation was also confirmed with a factor of about two for all three different bands. The light variation of each band did not exhibit a correlation between them, but the flare event is strongest in the soft band. The hardness ratio for hard and soft bands shows irregular variation but there was no correlation between them. It was confirmed that there is a gradual decrease of the photon index. Results of our analysis are discussed within the framework of the accretion disk phenomenon.

In this work, the fundamental study of on-line monitoring of $SiO_2$ particles in the size range of 40 nm to 725 nm was carried out using turbidimetry. The size of particle was measured using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The factors affecting on the turbidity were discussed, for example, wavelength, size, and concentration. In order to observe the dependence of turbidity on the wavelength, a turbidimetric system equipped with charged coupled detector (CCD) was built. The shape of the transmitted peak was changed and the peak maximum was shifted to the red when the concentration of particle was increased. This result indicates that the turbidity is related to the wavelength, which corresponds to the characteristic of the Mie extinction coefficient, Q, that is a function of not only particle diameter and refractive index but also wavelength. It is clear that a linear calibration curve for each particle in different size can be obtained at an optimized wavelength.

L-Arginine semi-oxalate (LASO) single crystal has been grown by solution growth technique at room temperature. The crystal structure and lattice parameters were determined for the grown crystal by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Photoluminescence studies confirm the violet fluorescence emission peak at 395 nm. Optical constants like band gap, refractive index, reflectance, extinction coefficient and electric susceptibility were determined from UV-VIS-NIR spectrum. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and ac conductivity of the compound were calculated at different temperatures and frequencies to analyze the electrical properties. The solid state parameters such as plasma energy, Penn gap, Fermi energy and polarizability were calculated to analyze second harmonic generation (SHG). Nonlinear optical property was discussed to confirm the SHG efficiency of the grown crystal.

Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon of different characteristics were formed to determine their optical constants in the visible wavelength range using a periodic square wave current between low and high current densities. The surface and cross-sectional SEM images of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon were obtained using a cold field emission scanning electron microscope. The surface image of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon indicates that the distributions of pores are even. The cross-sectional image illustrates that the multilayer of distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibits a depth of few microns and applying of square current density during the etching process results two distinct refractive indices in the contrast. Distributed Bragg reflector porous silicon exhibited a porosity depth profile that related directly to the current-time profile used in etch. Its free-standing film was obtained by applying an electro-polishing current.
