In this paper, we propose a 3D shape restoration system which measures height and surface shape of transparent ITO glass and delivers errors in focal length and incident angle of laser beam to femto-second laser micromachining. The proposed system is composed of a line scan laser, a high resolution camera, a linear motion guide synchronized to image capturing, and a control station. Also, we define the sensitivity indices that represent a relation between measurement error and a position of a camera and scan laser, and utilize it for optimum design. The results of the proposed system are compared with results of SPM(Scanning Probe Microscope) and prove the usefulness of the system.

We have fabricated a magnetic micro-deflector for a microcolumn system and tested its performance by operating it in the low energy region. The micro-deflector is composed of Cu coils around cylindrical cores with $500{\mu}m$ diameter. The diameter of the Cu coil itself is $100{\mu}m$. Two pairs of deflectors designed for a 2-dimensional scan, that is X and Y deflection, are fixed on an insulating plate. The low power performance of a magnetic micro-deflector attached to a microcolumn system has been tested and the magnitude of deflection is measured to be ${\sim}100{\mu}m/A$, which offers the possibility for practical applications of the magnetic micro-deflector.

Dielectric thin film mirrors are embedded in multimode and single-mode fibers by a fusion splicing technique. The fibers with $45{\circ}$ angled embedded mirrors serve as ultra-compact directional couplers with low excess optical loss of 0.2 dB for multimode and 0.5 dB for single mode at 1.3 ${\mu}m$ and excellent mechanical properties. The reflectance is wavelength dependent and strongly polarization depencient. Far-field scans of the reflected output power measured with a white-light source show a pattern which is almost circularly symmetric with aspect ratio of 1.09 at 5% of the peak power. The splitting ratio in a multimode coupler measured with a diode laser source is much less dependent on input coupling conditions than in conventional fused biconical-taper couplers, indicating that these couplers are less susceptible to modal noise occuring in optical fiber communication systems. Spectral properties of multilayer internal mirrors normal to the fiber axis have been investigated experimentally, and a matrix analysis has been used to explain the results.

In this study, a new methodology by using the X-ray CT scan is proposed for estimating void ratio of sandy soil. The general problems in high resolution X-ray CT scan such as beam hardening and ring artifact had been successfully settled up using thin metal plate filter and some calibration process. In order to calculate the void ratio of sand from its CT image, the procedures and algorithm for CT image processing are developed. CT scan tests for Joomunjin sand are carried out to verify its applicability to void ratio testing.

A scanning radar is exploited widely such as for ground surveillance, disaster rescue, and etc. However, the range resolution is limited by transmitted bandwidth and cross-range resolution is limited by beam width. In this paper, we propose a method for super-resolution radar imaging. If the distribution of reflectivity is sparse, the distribution is called sparse signal. That is, the problem could be formulated as compressive sensing problem. In this paper, 2D super-resolution radar image is generated via reweighted ${\ell}_1-Minimization$. In the simulation results, we compared the images obtained by the proposed method with those of the conventional Orthogonal Matching Pursuit(OMP) and Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR).

The purpose of this study is to determine the effective energy of CT X-ray beams by using the CT slice images of a CT number calibration insert part in the AAPM CT performance phantom. The CT number calibration insert part in the AAPM CT performance phantom was scanned five times by using a CT canner for 80, 100 and 120 kVp X-ray beams. The average value of CT numbers of each pin were measured for each CT slice image. The correlation coefficients were obtained by linear fit between the average value of CT numbers measured and liner attenuation coefficient under different energy at each pin calculated from data of NIST. A photon energy corresponding to the maximum value of the obtained correlation coefficient was determined as an effective energy. As a result, the effective energy was 56, 62 and 66~67 keV, respectively, for 80, 100 and 120 kVp X-ray beams.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure the average actual treatment time at the time of Tomotherapy treatment. We want to investigate the time required for the procedure in the treatment process that affects the actual treatment time. Patients and Methods: We measured the time required by the procedure in 31 patients who were treated with tomography therapy. Beam-on time, Image registration time, Set-up with scan time and Actual treatment time were measured and stepwise regression analysis was performed. Result: The average treatment time per a patient was 21.44 - 23.92 minutes. Beam-on time, Image registration time, and Set-up with Scan time were the important factors affecting the actual treatment time. The biggest influence was Beam-on time and Registration time was less affected by analysing. Conclusion: The average treatment time per a patient in tomotherapy treatment was $22.68{\pm}3.37$ minutes. The Approximately 21 patients are expected to be treated within 8 hours of regular work time. However, if the treatment is interrupted or the time of the procedure is changed during the treatment process, it affects the schedule of the daily treatment patients and the workload is expected to increase.

Since the presence of the chemical impurities and defect at surfaces and interfaces greatly influence the properties of various semiconductor devices, an unambiguous chemical characterization of the metal and semiconductor surfaces become more important in the view of the miniaturization of the devices toward nano scale. Among the various conventional surface characterization tools, Electron-induced Auger Electron Spectroscopy (EAES), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Secondary Electron Ion Mass Spectroscopy (SIMS) are being used for the identification of the surface chemical impurities. Recently, a novel surface characterizaion technique, Positron-annihilation induced Auger Electron Spectroscopy (PAES) is introduced to provide a unique method for the analysis of the elemental composition of the top-most atomic layer. In PAES, monoenergetic positron of a few eV are implanted to the surface under study and these positrons become thermalized near the surface. A fraction of the thermalized positron trapped at the surface state annihilate with the neighboring core-level electrons, creating core-hole excitations, which initiate the Auger process with the emission of Auger electrons almost simultaneously with the emission of annihilating gamma-rays. The energy of electrons is generally determined by employing ExB energy selector, which shows a poor resolution of $6{\sim}10eV$. In this paper, time-of-flight system is employed to measure the electrons energy with an enhanced energy resolution. The experimental result is compared with simulation results in the case of both linear (with retarding tube) and reflected TOF systems.

The purpose of this study is to present a method of measuring noise by the percentage of effective line attenuation coefficient of water that can be used for quality control of CT image noise using AAPM CT performance phantom in clinical practice. In the CT images obtained by scanning the AAPM CT performance phantom with a 120 kVp CT X-ray beam, the mean CT number was measured for each pin and water in the CT number linearity insert part. The effective energy was determined as the photon energy with the largest correlation coefficient from the correlation coefficients of the linear regression analysis of the measured mean CT number for each pin and water and the linear attenuation coefficient for each photon energy. And for water and acrylic, the contrast scale was calculated as 0.000188 cm^-1 · HU^-1 from the measured mean CT number and effective line attenuation coefficient. Using the calculated contrast scale, the effective line attenuation coefficient of water, and the standard deviation measured in the water of the alignment pin part of the AAPM CT performance phantom, The noise measurement value by the percentage of effective line attenuation coefficient of water obtained 0.31 ~ 0.52% in the range of 100 ~ 300 mAs.
