As the aged population grows around the world, many medical instruments and devices have been developed recently. Among the devices, a drug delivery stent is a medical device which requires precision machining. Conventional drug delivery stent has problems of residual polymer and decoating because the drug is coated on the surface of stent with the polymer. If the drug is impregnated in micro hole array on the surface of the stent, the problem can be solved. Micro sized holes are generally fabricated by laser machining; however, the fabricated holes do not have an enough aspect ratio to contain the drug or a good surface finish to deliver it to blood vessel tissue. To overcome these problems, we propose a vibration-assisted machining mechanism with PZT (Piezoelectric Transducers) for the fabrication of micro sized holes. If the mechanism vibrates the eyepiece of the laser machining head, the laser spot on the workpiece will vibrate vertically because objective lens in the eyepiece shakes by the mechanism's vibration. According to the former researches, the vibrating frequency over 20kHz and amplitude over 500nm are preferable. The vibration mechanism has cylindrical guide, hollowed PZT and supports. In the cylinder, the eyepiece is mounted. The cylindrical guide has upper and low plates and side wall. The shape of plates and side wall are designed to have high resonating frequency and large amplitude of motion. The PZT also is selected to have high actuating force and high speed of motion. The support has symmetrical and rigid characteristics.

Due to the variety of signal processing and complicated mathematical analysis, it is not easy to accomplish 3D bin-picking with non-contact sensor. To solve this difficulties the reliable signal processing algorithm and a good sensing device has been recommended. In this research, 3D laser scanner and CCD camera is applied as a sensing device respectively. With these sensor we develop a two-step bin-picking method and reliable algorithm for the recognition of 3D bin object. In the proposed bin-picking, the problem is reduced to 2D intial recognition with CCD camera at first, and then 3D pose detection with a laser scanner. To get a good movement in the robot base frame, the hand eye calibration between robot's end effector and sensing device should be also carried out. In this paper, we examine auto-calibration technique in the sensor calibration step. A new thinning algorithm and constrained hough transform is also studied for the robustness in the real environment usage. From the experimental results, we could see the robust bin-picking operation under the non-aligned 3D hole object.

순방향 전압-온도 (forward voltage-temperature)법을 이용하여 양자점 레이저 다이오드의 접합온도를 측정하였다. 식각 깊이가 깊은 mesa 구조의 경우 입력전류에 대한 접합온도의 증가율은 0.05 K/mA인 반면, 식각 깊이가 낮은 mesa 구조의 경우 0.07 K/mA로서 상대적으로 높게 측정되었다. 깊은 mesa 구조에서의 상대적으로 낮은 접합온도 증가율은 mesa 측면 방향으로의 열확산 효과 때문인 것으로 설명된다.

We design and fabricate a widely tunable laser diode made of InGaAsP-InP. The diode is monolithically integrated with a wavelength-selective coupled-ring reflector and semiconductor amplifiers. For realization of a compact size device, deeply etched multi-mode interference couplers and square ring resonators composed of total-internal-reflection mirrors are adopted and fabricated using a self-aligned process. It is demonstrated that the laser diode exhibits single mode operation and 16 nm tuning range with side-mode-suppression-ratio exceeding 20 dB.

The sensor system to measure the distance precisely from the center of the sensor system to the obstacle is needed to recognize the surrounding environments, and the sensor system is to be calibrated thoroughly to get the range information exactly. This study covers the calibration of the active range sensor which consists of camera and laser slit emitting device, and provides the equations to get the 3D range data. This can be possible by obtaining the extrinsic parameters of laser slit emitting device through image processing the slits measured during the constant distance intervals and the intrinsic parameters from the calibration of camera. The 3D range data equation derived from the simple geometric assumptions is proved to be applicable to the general cases using the calibration parameters. Also the exact 3D range data were obtained to the object from the real experiment.

Integrating the driver circuitry directly onto the glass substrate would be one of the advantages of polycrystalline Si (poly-Si) TFT-(LCD). Low-temperature poly-Si TFT(LTPS) is well-suited for higher-definition display applications due to its intrinsically superior electrical characteristics. In order to improve LTPS electrical characteristics, currently the excimer laser-induced crystallization (ELC) processes and sequential lateral solidification method were developed. Grain size of the poly-Si is mainly affected by beam pitch and energy density. Key parameter for making a larger poly-Si using excimer laser annealing(ELA) and increasing a throughput is due to increase in beam pitch and energy density to a certain degree. Furthermore, thin $SiO_{2}$ capping is effective to suppress the protrusion of the poly-Si thin films and to reduce the interface state density. From the ELA process, we are able to control grain size by varying different parameters such as number of shots and energy density.

A sensor system was designed to measure real time vibro displacement of civil structure. The He-Ne laser is used for the displacement measuring method, because it guarantees short time stabilization, long time output power stability. Also, it guarantees simple maintenances and repairs under actual using condition. The line CCD image sensor(Tcd-142d) is used to detect the displacement of Ne-Ne laser responding to the vibro of civil structure. For accurate measurement and comparison, CDP-50 is used. Usually CDF-50 (Strain type displacement device) is used for the standard correction device of optical measurement equipments. The data processing part is consists of Optical sensor part, Wireless data transmission device, DAQp-1200, and LapView program. The displacement data of vibro from optical sensor part inputted to wireless data transmission device and then transmitted to DAQp-1200 in main control room. DAQp-1200 performs A/D conversion for the receiving data. After that the converted data inputted to computer system using LapView program for user display. The significance of this paper is to develope a convenient, accurate and lost saving real time displacement measurement system for the civil structure.

Beam projector is popularly used for presentation. In order to pay attention to local area of the beam projector display, a laser pointer is used together with a pointing device(Mouse). Simple wireless presenter has limited functions of a pointing device such as "go to next slide" or "back to previous slide" in a specific application(Microsoft PowerPoint) through wireless channel; thus, there is inconvenience to do other tasks e.g., program execution, maximize/minimize window etc. provided by clicking mouse buttons. The main objective of this paper is to implement a multi-functional laser-pointer mouse that has the same functions of a computer mouse. In order to get position of laser spot in the projector display, an image processing to extract the laser spot in the camera image is required. In addition, we propose a transformation of the spot position into computer display coordinates to execute mouse functions on computer display.

Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) method is one of Rapid Prototyping(RP) technologies. It is used to fabricate desirable part to sinter powder and stack the fabricated layer. To develop this SLS machine, it needs effective scanning path and the development of scanning device. This paper shows how to make fast scanning path with respect to scan spacing, laser beam size and scanning direction from 2-dimensional sliced file generated in commercial CAD/CAM software. Also, we develop the scanning device and its control algorithm to precisely follow the generated scanning path. Scanning path affects precision and total machining time of the final fabricated part. Sintering occurs using infrared laser which has high thermal energy. As a result, shrinkage and curling of the fabricated part occurs according to thermal distribution. Therefore, fast scanning path generation is needed to eliminate the factors of quality deterioration. It highly affects machining efficiency and prevents shrinkage and curling by relatively lessening the thermal distribution of the surface of sintering layer. To generate this fast scanning path, adaptive path generation is needed with respect to the shape of each layer, and not simply x, y scanning, but the scanning of arbitrary direction must be enabled. This paper addresses path generation method to focus on fast scanning, and development of scanning system and control algorithm to precisely follow generated path.
