We measured the permeation characteristics of water with the hydrophobic PTFE membranes dependent on water temperature to confirm the separation of oxygen isotopes using Air Gap Membrane Distillation (AGMD) and Vacuum Enhanced Membrane Distillation (VEMD). Isotopic concentrations of $H_2^{16}O$ and $H_2^{18}O$ of the permeated water vapor were measured by Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy. Concentrations of the heavy oxygen isotopes in the permeated water vapor were decreased. Isotope separation coefficients for the hydrophobic PTFE membranes were 1.004∼1.01 depending on the experimental conditions. We observed the effects of air in membrane pores on the oxygen isotope separation. Isotope separation coefficients for the hydrophobic PTFE membranes without air in pores are higher than those for the membrane with air in pores.

Cut-off filters would reject all the radiation below and transmit all that above a certain wavelength or vice versa. In this paper, we study design and farbrication of dichroic mirror and broadband high reflective mirror for color separation of white laser beam source to R.G.B color beam source. In laser display system, color separation is very important. We fabricated below specific component for finite color separation of the Kr-Ar laser source. At 45$^{\circ}$ incidence s-polarized light , it is required that - H/R in blue region R>99%, H/T in green and red region T>90% - H/R in green and red region R>99%, H/T in blue region T>90% - H/R in green region R>99%, H/T in red region T>90% We composed the optical system and realize the full color image.

Laser Lift-Off (LLO) is a process that removes a GaN or AIN thin layer from a sapphire wafer to manufacture vertical-type LEDs. It consists of a light source, an attenuator, a mask, a projection lens and a beam homogenizer. In this paper, we design an attenuator and a projection lens. We use the 'ZEMAX' optical design software for analysis of depth of focus and for a projection lens design which makes $7{\times}7mm^2$ beam size by projecting a beam on a wafer. Using the 'LightTools' lighting design software, we analyze the size and uniformity of the beam projected by the projection lens on the wafer. The performance analysis found that the size of the square-shaped beam is $6.97{\times}6.96mm^2$, with 91.8 % uniformity and ${\pm}30{\mu}m$ focus depth. In addition, this study performs dielectric coating using the 'Essential Macleod' to increase the transmittance of an attenuator. As a result, for 23 layers of thin films, the transmittance total has 10-96% at angle of incidence $45-60^{\circ}$ in S-polarization.

DME(Di-Methyl Ehter, $CH_3OCH$) is currently attracting worldwide attention due to its environmentally friendly characteristics. Until now it was researched as a major alternative fuel of diesel automobile because it is a clean fuel producing low soot. Therefore, in this study, in order to investigate the effect of DME mixing on number density and size of soot particle, DME has been mixed in opposed-flow ethylene diffusion flame with the mixture ratios 5%, 14% and 30%. A laser extinction/scattering technique has been adopted to measure the volume fraction, number density, and size of soot particles. The experimental results showed that the soot concentration of mixture flames with the mixture ratios 5% and 14% produces soot more, even though that of 30% was decreased. This means that even though DME has been known to be a clean fuel for soot formation, the mixing of DME in diffusion flame of ethylene, where acetylene maintains high concentration in soot formation regions, could produce enhanced production of soot.

For detailed characterization of scattering losses occurring in VCSEL's distributed Bragg reflectors, we performed scattering experiment and obtained the information about surface roughness through the analysis of a modified transmission matrix method. The various wafers grown for VCSELs were used for the scattering experiment. The fractal surface assumption and extrapolation is used to estimate the scattered intensity near specular angle. The modified transmission matrix method employed in the analysis considers the scattering loss at each interface and calculates the reflectivity efficiently and easily. As a result, the surface roughness ranges from $4{\AA}$ to $10{\AA}$ The reduction of reflectivity due to the scattering amounts to 0.26% in case of $10{\AA}$ roughness.

We have demonstrated the wavelength tunable ultrashort pulse fiber ring laser proposed the novel method for measuring the cavity loss from relaxation oscillation frequency and the pump power. To suppress the polarization instability the laser cavity is configured with polarization maintaining fibers and to control the center wavelength a 2.4 nm bandwidth tunable wavelength filter was inserted in the cavity. The laser has 8 picosecond pulse width, 10 GHz repetition rate and 1.2 mW average power in 1530-1560 nm operation range.

We have investigated the output power performance of a continuous-wave chromium-doped YAG laser ($Cr^{4+}$:YAG laser), pumped by a Nd: YAG laser. With an output coupler of 1% transmission, we obtained as much as 400 mW of the average output power at 1.450 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The power slope efficiency of 8%, when the gain medium was cooled to 2$0^{\circ}C$. We tuned the wavelength of the $Cr^{4+}$:YAG laser, at pump power of 6 W, by using birefringent filter. As a result, lasing wavelength was tuned from 1.399 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 1.532 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, with the maximum output power of 340 mW at 1.4903 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the linewidth was 0.21 nm.

Purpose: We have analyzed the transmittance distribution of various ocular lenses using local transmittance microscope to investigate the optical homogeneity of the lens. Methods: The local transmittance of the laser which is focused on the surface of the spectacle lens was measured by using the photo-detector, lock-in amplifier and motorized-stage. 25 multi-coated lenses with non-tinted of 5 groups and 45 multicoated lenses with tinted of 9 groups were analyzed as a sample respectively. Results: Average and deviation of local transmittance for nontinted lenses were measured almost uniformly with various refractive index and coating. However, deviation of transmittance of for tinted lenses was analyzed as about 3.7 times larger than that of non-tinted lenses. Inhomogeneity of local transmittance of for tinted lenses was also analyzed as about 3.1 times larger than that of non-tinted lenses. Conclusions: We could analyze that standard deviation of transmittance and inhomogeneity of local transmittance of for tinted lenses is larger than that of non-tinted lenses using the local transmittance microscope. These analysis using local transmittance microscope can be utilized as a way to evaluate lens performance and improve optical homogeneity.

Purpose: We have analyzed the transmittance distribution of the ocular lens using local transmittance microscope to investigate the optical homogeneity of the lens. Methods: The transmittance of the laser which is focused on the surface of the ocular lens was measured by using the photo-detector and lock-in amplifier and analyzed. Multi-coated, uncoated, and progressive lenses were analyzed. Results: In the measurement of the progressive lens and a physical stimulated lens, local transmittance microscopy analysis showed a high degree of match with the measurement results through the optical microscope. In addition, the average value of the transmittance is reduced and the standard deviation was increased in the presence of optical defects. In unstimulated lens, there are a large impact on transmittance whether the anti-reflective coating is presence or absence in both the local transmittance microscopy and general transmittance analysis. Conclusions: The distribution of the transmittance measured by local transmission microscopy were changed when the various stimulus is applied to the lenses. These analyzes by local transmission microscopy can be utilized as a way to evaluate or determine the uniformity of the coating film or lens.

Airborne laser scanning system needs preprocessing which removes some objects such as buildings from the raw DSM data to construct DEM in building area because the laser pulse can't penetrate into the buildings. This study applied the mean filtering method which has various size filter to the DSM data constructed by airborne laser scanning system and decided the optimal filter size as $39{\times}39$ by analyzing the standard deviation change ratio. Also, this study could get the ${\pm}0.065m$ standard error by comparing the optimal filtering DEM and DSM raw data of airborne laser scanning. Therefore, it could know that the mean filtering method, which is presented in this study, is very effective to extract DEM in the urban area which has a low relief.
