Measurement of the ferroelectric polarization hysteresis curve is an important means of overall evaluation and interpretation of the ferroelectric structure and dielectric properties. If a resistive component is included in the ferroelectric sample, an error is included in the measured value of the spontaneous polarization. When configuring the electrical circuit to measure the polarization, by properly utilizing the external resistance corresponding to the resistive component included in the sample, the error due to the resistive loss of the sample was excluded and the size of the ferroelectric polarization induced inside could be accurately measured. It is expected that the displacement and dielectric characteristics of ions inside the ferroelectric can be more accurately evaluated through the evaluation of such an accurate polarization hysteresis curve.

Several test methods, including micro strain/deformation measurement techniques, have been studied to more reliably measure the micro properties in micro/nano materials. Therefore, in this study, the continuous measurement of in-plane tensile strain in micro-sized specimens of thin film materials was introduced using the micro-ESPI technique. TiN and Au thin films 1 and $0.47\;\mu{m}$ thick, respectively, were deposited on the silicon wafer and fabricated into the micro-sized tensile specimens using the electromachining process. The micro-tensile loading system and micro-ESPI system were developed to measure the tensile strain during micro-tensile test. The micro-tensile stress-strain for these materials was determined using the algorithm for continuous strain measurement. Furthermore, algorithm for enhancing the sensitivity to measurement of in-plane tensile strain was suggested. According to the algorithm for enhancement of sensitivity, micro-tensile strain data between interfringe were calculated. It is shown that the algorithm for enhancement of the sensitivity suggested in this study makes the sensitivity to the in-plane tensile strain increase.

In this paper, in-situ technique for measuring hydraulic conductivity of Excavation Disturbed Zone (EDZ) in a direct way and its application to an Underground Research Laboratory (URL) site were introduced. It was understood that both the EDZ oriented test equipment as a hardware and analysis/evaluation technique as a software should be integrated for upgrading a quality of estimated EDZ hydraulic conductivity. The well-estimated EDZ hydraulic conductivity is expected to enhance a reliability of stability evaluation for caverns under groundwater table and design of a waterproof or drainage system as well as a grout system.

A normal incidence ellipsometer is fabricated to measure the optical anisotropy of a small spot whose diameter is less than $8.0{\mu}m$, by adding a beam splitter and a prism to the conventional rotating analyzer type ellipsometer. The polarizing actions of the added optical components are calibrated to improve the accuracy of the anisotropy measurement. The standard deviation of the optical anisotropy factor decreased to 0.00083, and the variation of the optical anisotropy factor of rutile versus sample azimuth angle variation also decreased to 0.015, after adoption of a non-polarizing beam splitter and a quarter wavelength phase retarder, followed by removal of the optical fiber and a careful choice of measurement wavelength.

Maintenance and repair devices used for the inspection of the main parts of domestic railway vehicles have been imported from abroad. Especially, one of the representative domestic devices, the 'Wheel Profile Inspector System (WPIS)', was made by benchmarking foreign devices; this vehicle has been operated in the field. However, problems such as the reliability and performance of the WPIS in operation have appeared. In this study, in order to improve the precision and reliability of the WPIS for maintenance and inspection of railway vehicle wheels, the researchers improved the railway vehicle's WPIS by applying high-speed vision camera technology and an optimized image algorithm. The test results show that the reliability of the developed WPIS improved by approximately 10.4% compared to that of the conventional system.

대기 수증기량의 정확한 추정은 우주측지 정밀도 향상에 필수적이다. 대류층 지연오차의 주요 원인인 대기 수증기량을 추정하는 대표적인 시스템으로는 라디오존데, 라디오미터, GPS 등이 있다. 한국천문연구원은 GPS 가강수량의 상시 비교검증을 위해 2009년 7월부터 라디오미터를 도입하여 비교관측을 수행하고 있다. 라디오미터는 대기복사의 밝기온도를 측정하여 가강수량을 산출하는 시스템으로써, 24시간 연속관측이 가능하고 실시간으로 관측결과를 확인할 수 있으나, 강수시 불안정하다. 2009년 7월부터 최근까지 GPS와 라디오미터 가강수량 결과간 비교로부터 0.1mm, 1.8mm의 편향과 표준편차, 0.98의 상관관계계수를 산출하였다. 현재 두 시스템의 가강수량을 10분 간격으로 비교하고 있으며, 그 결과를 웹으로 표출하는 시스템을 구축하여 운영하고 있다.

The study is underway with the goal of developing an app that will replace vernier calipers using a smartphone's high-performance camera. The specifications of the camera mounted on recent smart phones have evolved so that usually has a 12 Mpixels of image sensor and its size of the pixel is 1.4㎛ and the size of the image sensor is 1 / 2.55 in. The proposed algorithm will apply to develop a precision measuring application that will compete with the Vernier calipers. Most existing applications cannot guarantee an accuracy in scale because the scale of the ruler displayed on the image is unclear or the size of the measurement object varies depending on the distance between the camera and the measurement object. In addition, another accurate measuring tools using lasers are also available, but they are limited because they are expensive. Therefore, if easy-to-carry and precise applications are developed, it is possible to substitute existing measurement tools. The proposed correction algorithm is an algorithm that automatically corrects the distorted source image using the shape and size information of the known template. The e-calipers are applications that display the distance when the area to be measured is specified in the corrected image.

A tapped delay line time-to-digital converter (TDC) can be easily implemented using internal carry chains in a field-programmable gate array, and hence, its use is widespread. However, the tapped delay line TDC suffers from performance degradation because of differences in the delay times of dedicated carry chains. In this paper, a dual edge measurement method is proposed instead of a typical step signal to the delay cell to compensate for the performance degradation caused by wide-delay cells in carry chains. By applying a pulse of a fixed width as an input to the carry chains and using the time information between the up and down edges of the signal pulse, the timing accuracy can be increased. Two dedicated carry chain sites are required for the dual edge measurements. By adopting the proposed dual edge measurement method, the average delay widths of the two carry chains were improved by more than 35%, from 17.3 ps and 16.7 ps to 11.2 ps and 10.1 ps, respectively. In addition, the maximum delay times were improved from 41.4 ps and 42.1 ps to 20.1 ps and 20.8 ps, respectively.
