Catenary (Overhead Contact Lines) and Pantograph are used to transmit electrical energy to electric railways. An Arc occurs by unstable contact between catenary and pantograph during electric railways operation, which causes malfunctioning or even an accident. Therefore, to prevent a arc or electric contact loss are required arc detection systems with catenary maintenance capability. This paper describes developing of catenary arc detection system using photo detector in order to detect arc incidence in a indirect way. This developed system can also achieve Video-recordings and environmental conditions such as wire voltage/current, pantograph height, speed, position of electric railways, and temperature/humidity. This system have been evaluated at the section that bounds for dongdaegu from seoul. From the experimental results, the occurrence of arc and intensity of arc are mainly effected by wire voltage/current, pantograph height and speed of electric railways.

We have developed the ATE(Automatic Test Equipment) system for the performance test of pre-amplifier of thermal imaging devices. The device regenerates the electronic signals of photon detection module which is normally in weak energy, for the image signals processing. Previous ATE system was primarily and actively developed in the field of semiconductor devices quality parts inspection. Recently, it has been studied in the field of performance testing of equipment. In the field of thermal performance test equipment, however, it lacks the study of ATE compared to other areas, which causes the maintenance related to the core of military thermal imaging system maintenance to be limited. In this paper, a new study of ATE in the field of thermal imaging system is done. It is designed to be used universally for the ATE system with different types of circuit card of thermal imaging system by adopting matrix relays. Using the developed ATE measuring the pre-amplifier amplitude, an average amplified amplitude of 2.71Vpp was measured which confirms that it is within the range of theoretical analysis and also verifies the good performance of the developed ATE.

In this paper we proposes a new framework to obtain 3D shape information of thin film rapidly. The conventional equipments based on reflectometry are not suitable for obtaining 3D overall shape information of thin film rapidly since they require more than 30 minutes to measure the absolute thickness for 170 points. The proposed framework is based on an image analysis method that extracts contour lines from interference fringes images using Canny edge detector. The absolute thickness for contour lines are measured and then a height map from the contour lines is obtained by interpolation using Borgefors distance transformation. The extracted height map is visualized using the DirectX 3D terrain rendering method. The proposed framework can provide 3D overall shape information of thin film in about 5 minutes since relatively small number of real measurement for contour lines is required.

In order to improve spectrum sensitivity of photodiode for detection of the laser wavelength at 850 nm ~ 1000 nm of near-infrared band, this study has produced silicon-based photodiode whose area is $5000{\mu}m{\times}2000{\mu}m$, and the thickness is $280{\mu}m$. It was packed by the TO-5 type. The electrical properties of the dark currents have valued of approximately 0.1 nA for 5 V reverse bias, while the capacitance showed 32.5 pF at frequency range of 1 kHz and about 32.4 pF at the range of 200 kHz for 0 V. In addition, the rising time of output signal was as fast response as 20.92 ns for 10V. For the optical properties, the best spectrum sensitivity was 0.57 A/W for 890 nm, while it was relatively excellent value of 0.37 A/W for 1,000 nm. Over all, there were good spectrum sensitivity for this diode over the range of 870 ~ 920 nm.

A study for the assessment of natural environmental radiation exposure at a flat and open field of about $10,000m^2$ in area in CNU Daeduk campus has been carried out by means of gamma-ray scintillation spectrometry and thermoluminescence dosimetry for one year period of time from October 1984. The detectors used were 3'${\phi}{\times}$3' NaI(T1) and two different types of LiF TLD, namely, chip sealed in plastic sheet which tightly pressed on two open holes of a metal plate and Teflon disk. Three 24-hour cycles of in-situ spectrometry, and two 3-month and one 1-month cycles of field TL dosimetry were performed. All the spectra measured were converted into exposure rate by means of G(E) opertaion, and therefrom exposure rate due to terrestrial component of environmental radiation was figured out. Exposure rate determined by the spectrometry was, on average, $(10.54{\pm}2.96){\mu}R/hr$, and the rates of $(12.0{\pm}3.4){\mu}R/hr$ and $(11.0{\pm}3.6){\mu}R/hr$ were obtained from chip and disk TLD, respectively. Fluctuations in diurnal variation of the exposure rate measured by the spectrometry were noticeable sometime even in a single cycle of 24 hours. It is concluded that appropriately combined use of TLD with iu-sitn gamma-ray spectrometry system can give more accurate and precise measure of environmental radiation exposure, and further study for more adequate and sensitive TLD for environmental dosimetry, including improvement and elevation of accuracy in data assessment through inter-laboratory or international intercomparison is necessary.

A X-ray optical modulator measures x-ray dose using optical transmissivity ratio change of the liquid crystal cell. To apply in this optical modulator, we made photoconductor films and compared electrical properties of this films in this study. Photoconductors are deposited on ITO glass with $200{\mu}m$ using the percipitation method and print method. I-V test was conducted to alalyze electrical properties of this films and measured darkcurrent and SNR was acquired using the measured dark current and sensitivity. As a result of this measurements, $HgI_2$ film made by precipitation method is lower(about 40%) darkcurrent than $HgI_2$ films made by precipitation method and sensitivity is two times greater than print method. And we knew that $HgI_2$ films were also 10~25 times greater SNR at $1v/{\mu}m$ than $PbI_2$, PbO, CdTe film made by precipitation method. This results suggest that $HgI_2$ films made by precipitation method has improved characteristics of x-ray dose meter by applying in x-ray optical modulator.

양자점(Quantum dots)은 3차원적 운반자 구속과 낮은 전류와 높은 온도에서 작동하는 나노 크기의 전기적, 광학적 소자로 응용이 적합하기 때문에 그 특성을 이용한 단전자 트랜지스터, 적외선 검출기, 레이저, LED, 태양전지 등 반도체 소자로의 응용연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 양자점의 낮은 임계전류밀도와 높은 차동 이득(differential gain), 그리고 고온에서 작동이 용이하여 양자점 레이저로 활용되고 있다. 이러한 분야에 양자점을 응용하기 위해서는 양자점의 운반자 동역학을 이해하고 양자점의 모양, 크기, 크기 분포와 같은 특성 조절이 필요하다. 또한 기존의 연구들은 III-V족 화합물 반도체 양자점에 대한 연구가 대부분이며, II-VI족으로 구성된 연구가 미흡한 상황이기 때문에 II-VI족 화합물 반도체 양자점에 대한 많은 연구가 필요한 상황이다. II-VI 족 화합물 반도체 양자점은 기존의 III-V 족 양자점보다 더 큰 엑시톤 결합에너지(exciton binding energy)를 가지고 있으며, 이러한 특성을 가지는 II-VI 족 화합물 반도체 양자점 중에서도 CdTe 양자점은 높은 엑시톤 결합에너지와 녹색 스펙트럼 영역을 필요로 하는 광학적 장치들에 응용 가능성이 높기 때문에 더욱 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분자 선속 에피 성장법(Molecular Beam Epitaxy; MBE)과 원자 층 교대 성장법(Atomic Layer Epitaxy; ALE)으로 CdTe/ZnTe 나노구조에서 ZnTe 완충층의 두께에 따른 운반자 동역학 및 광학적 특성을 연구 하였다. 저온 광루미네센스 측정(Photoluminescence; PL) 을 통하여 ZnTe 완충층 두께가 증가할수록 양자점의 광루미네센스 피크가 낮은 에너지로 이동함을 알 수 있었는데, 이는 ZnTe 완충층의 두께가 증가할수록 ZnTe 완충층과 CdTe 양자점의 격자 불일치(lattice mismatch)로 인한 구조 변형력이 감소하고 이에 따라 CdTe 양자점으로 가해지는 변형(Strain)이 감소하여 CdTe 양자점의 크기가 증가했기 때문이다. 그리고 ZnTe 완충층의 두께가 증가할수록 PL 세기가 증가함을 알 수 있었는데, 이는 ZnTe 완충층의 두께가 증가할수록 양자 구속 효과로부터 electronic state와 conduction band edge 사이의 에너지 차이의 증가 때문이다. 또한 시분해 광루미네센스 측정 결과 ZnTe의 두께가 증가할수록 양자점의 소멸 시간이 더 길게 측정되었는데, 이는 더 큰 양자점 일수록 엑시톤 오실레이터 강도가 감소하기 때문에 더 긴 소멸 시간을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로 본 연구는 ZnTe 두께 변화를 통해 양자점의 에너지 밴드를 제어할 수 있으며, 양자점의 효율 향상을 할 수 있는 좋은 방법임을 제시하고 있다.

Most optical security systems use a 4-f correlator, Mach-Zehnder interferometer, or a joint transform correlator(JTC). Of them, the JTC does not require an accurate optical alignment and has a good potential for real-time processing. In this paper, we propose an image encryption system using a position shift property of the JTC in the Fourier domain and a random phase image. Our encryption system uses two keys: one key is a random phase mask and the other key is a position shift factor. By using two keys, the proposed method can increase the security level of the encryption system. An encrypted image is produced by the Fourier transform for the multiplication image, which resulted from adding position shift functions to an original image, with a random phase mask. The random phase mask and position shift value are used as keys in decryption, simultaneously. For the decryption, both the encrypted image and the key image should be correctly located on the JTC. If the incorrect position shift value or the incorrect key image is used in decryption, the original information can not be obtained. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed system, computer simulation is performed. By analyzing the simulation results in the case of blocking of the encrypted image and affecting of the phase noise, we confirmed that the proposed method has a good tolerance to data loss. These results show that our system is very useful for the optical certification system.

This work demonstrates the indoor SI-traceable calibration of a transmissometer with a 75-m baseline for the measurement of visibility in MOR (Meteorological Optical Range). The calibration is performed using a set of neutral density (ND) filters (OD 0.1-2.5) and a set of high-transmission quartz glass plates (a bare quartz glass plate and antireflective-coated quartz glass plates), the collection consisting of 20 artifacts in total. The luminous transmittance values of the reference artifacts had been calibrated traceable to the KRISS spectral transmittance scale, which ranges from 0.2 % to 99.5 %. The transmissometer to be calibrated typically consists of a loosely collimated light source based on a white LED (CCT ~5000 K) and a luminous intensity detector with a CIE 1924 V(${\lambda}$) spectral response. As a result of calibration, we obtained the MOR error and its uncertainty for the transmissometer in 20 m - 40 km of MOR. Based on the results, we investigated the applicability of the calibration method and the conformity of the transmissometer to the ICAO's (International Civil Aviation Organization) accuracy requirement for meteorological visibility measurement. We expect that this work will establish the standard procedure for the SI-traceable calibration of a transmissometer.
