The Holographic Particle Velocimetry system can be a promising optical tool for the measurements of three dimensional particle velocities. In this study, diffused illumination holographic system to measure the sizes and 3D velocities of moving particles based on automatic image processing was developed. First of all basic optical systems for pulse laser recording, continuous laser reconstruction, and image acquisition, were constructed. To determine the position of particles in the optical axis, new three auto-focusing parameters(AEP), namely, Correlation Coefficient, Sharpness Index, and Depth Intensity were introduced and verified. The developed system was applied to spray droplets to validate the capability of the system. Three dimensional positions of particles viewed from two sides were decided using AFP and then 3D velocities of Particles were extracted by particle tracking algorithm. Comparison of measurement results of sizes and 3D velocities of particles with those obtained by laser instrument, PDPA, showed good consistency of the developed holographic system.

Coherence length (time) is a key parameter in many classical and quantum optical applications. Two interferometers – Michelson and Young’s double-slit – are used to characterize the temporal coherence of single photons emitted from single terrylene molecules. For quantitative analysis, a dispersion-related distortion in the interference pattern of a Michelson interferometer is carefully corrected by a simple dispersion compensation. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that Young’s interferometer can be used in temporal coherence studies at the single photon level with high accuracy. The pros and cons of the two systems are discussed. The measured coherence lengths in the two systems are consistent with one another under the self-interference interpretations.

We have demonstrated a highly efficient cladding-pumped ytterbium-doped fiber laser, generating $>$2.1 kW of continuous-wave output power at 1.1 μm with 74% slope efficiency with respect to launched pump power. The beam quality factor ($M^2$) was better than 1.2. The maximum output power was only limited by available pump power, showing no evidence of roll-over even at the highest output power. We present data on how the beam quality depends on the fiber parameter, based on our current and past fiber laser developments. We also discuss the ultimate power-capability of our fiber in terms of thermal management, Raman nonlinear scattering, and material damage, and estimate it to 10 kW.

Estimation of the frequency response of Ti:LiNb03 traveling-wave optical modulator with phase reversal electrodes is succinctly presented. The fact that such devices may have bandpass characteristics is demonstrated through simulations based on the derived equations. The influence of each parameter of traveling-wave electrodes on the frequency response is investigated in detail. It is shown that the center frequency and the bandwidth of response curves can be effectively adjustable by changing the MW effective index and the interaction length of the electrodes. rodes.

We propose the re-design method of modal parameters to depress the 2nd resonance peak of the ultra-slim-height optical pick-up actuator. With the addition of tile counter mode near the 2nd resonance frequency, we can achieve the gain margin which is sufficient to meet the system requirement. It would alleviate the burden of the additional filter for a high-speed drive.

The Panda-type polarization maintaining fibers were fabricated by VAD(vapor-phase axial deposition) method. We fabricate Panda style polarization maintaining fibers that have small form factor($80{\mu}m$), high H-parameter of about $1{\times}10^{-4}/m$ and low optical loss of about 3dB/km.

마이크로파와 같은 초고주파를 이용한 방전은 여러 분야에서 응용되고 있으며, 초고주파 고강도 방전 기술은 무전극 HID 램프의 기본 되는 기술이다. 특히 소형화된 마이크로파 방전 HID 램프는 그 응용이 광범위 할 것이다. 본 논문에서는 자기장 해석 시뮬레이터를 사용하여 유전체 도파관의 크기를 결정하고, 본 연구실에서 개발한 소형화 고휘도 무전극 HID 램프의 조건에 맞는 parameter를 이용하여 방전 시스템을 설계하였으며, 유전체 도파관에서의 화합물에 따른 무전극 HID 램프의 광학적 특성(스펙트럼, 휘도, 상관색온도, 연색성지수)에 관한 실험결과를 보고하다.

We describe the design of a soft X-ray grating monochromator for synchrotron radiation in the photon energy range 300~1200eV. We investigate the optimum condition in optical parameters of CEM (cylindrical element monochromator), whose performance is well known by Dragon beam line installed recently at Brookhaven National Laboratory by C. T. Chen, fitting the parameter of PLS (Pohang Light Source) storage ring construction.

By employing the Berreman's backflow model, we investigated the effect of liquid crystal parameters on the optical switching characteristics of a bistable twisted-nematic liquid crystal cell. We found that d/p is the most important parameter for high speed operation.

An optical method of measuring hematocrit noninvasively is presented. An LED Light with multiple wavelengths was irradiated on fingernail and transmitted light from the finger was measured to predict hematocrit. A finger probe contained an LED array and detector. Our previous experience showed that prediction accuracy was sensitive to reliability of the finger probe hardware and we optimized the finger probe parameters such as the internal color, detector area and the emission area of a light source based on Design of Experiment. Using the optimized finger probe, we developed a hematocrit monitoring system and tested with 549 persons. For the calibration model with 368 persons, a regression coefficient of 0.74 and a standard deviation of 3.67 and the mean percent error of $8\%$ were obtained. Hematocrits for 181 persons were predicted. We achieved a mean percent error of $8.2\%$ where the regression coefficient was 0.68 and the standard deviation was 3.69.
