Austenitic stainless steel type 304L has been nitrided under the low pressure of high nitrogen environment for 5 hours by the square-wave-pulse-d.c. plasma as a function of temperature 400~$600^{\circ}C$ and of pulsation. At the temperature range lower than $500^{\circ}C$ and at the relatively high ratio of pulse duration to pulse period, nonstoichiometric stainless steel nitride has been developed in the form of a thin layer which has many cracks. At the temperature range higher than $500^{\circ}C$, with the increasing temperature or with the increasing ratio of the pulse duration to pulse period up to 50s/100s, the nitrided layer was composed mainly of CrN and Fe4N phases and became thick, uniform, columnar and nearly crack-free. The nitrided layer at $500^{\circ}C$ was mixed with the low-temperature layer and the high temperature layer and was very brittle.

During the life firing test of 1 N-class thruster development model, pulse mode performance and performance changes were examined. The deviation of pulse mode response time according to thruster feed pressure was relatively small and the resultant ignition delay, response time, tail-off time were 32-35 ms, 86-91 ms, 89-98 ms, respectively. For the stabilized pulse region the impulse bit revealed the outstanding reproducibility of 1.41, 1.32, 2.10% at $3{\sigma}$. During the life firing test, the impulse bit was decreased with limited amounts, therefore the pulse mode performance could be considered to be maintained. The thrust centroid was also maintained during the life firing test.

The continuous active sonar technology is effective for detecting and tracking targets because of short target revisiting rate. Generalized Sinusoidal Frequency Modulation (GSFM) pulses suitable for continuous active sonar systems are known to be capable of obtaining high time-bandwidth product while maintaining the orthogonality between pulses. However, it is unknown how to calculate an appropriate length of time to correlate received GSFM pulses in the presence of a target with acceleration. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate the appropriate time length based on the correlation when matching the received signal in the continuous active sonar system using GSFM pulse. The proposed method calculates the correlation according to the acceleration of the target and calculates the signal processing length according to the correlation. It is shown that stable detection performance can be obtained when the signal processing length calculated by the proposed method through the level of the sidelobe is applied.

Spectral phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction (SPIDER) was fabricated and used to characterize pulses from a Ti:sapphire oscillator. In the SPIDER apparatus, two replicas of the input pulse were generated with a time delay of 200 fs and were upconverted by use of sum-frequency generation with a strongly chirped pulse using a 8-cm-long SFIO glass block at a 30-11m-thick type II BBO (p-BaBz04) crystal. The resulting interferogram was recorded with a UV-enhanced CCD array in the spectrometer. The spectral phase was retrieved by SPIDER algorithm in combination with independently measured pulse spectrum and the corresponding temporal intensity profile was reconstructed with a duration of 19 fs. As an independent cross-check of the accuracy of the method, we compared the interferometric autocorrelation (lAC) signal calculated from the SPIDER data with a separately measured lAC. The conventional, but unjustified, method of fitting a sechz pulse to the autocorrelation deceivingly yielded a pulse duration of 15 fs. This systematic underestimation of the pulse duration affirms the need for a complete characterization method. From the consideration in this paper, we concluded that the SPIDER could provide an accurate characterization of femtosecond pulses. ulses.

Soliton pulse outputs are generated with figure '8' type erbium-doped fiber laser mode-locked by using a fiber loop mirror. The fiber loop mirror consists of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier at the one end of the loop, and 504 m-long dispersion-shifted fiber as a nonlinear medium. By pumping with a $1.48{\mu}m$ wavelength laser diode and adjusting the polarization controllers inside the loop, soliton pulses are generated with 1574 nm center wavelength and 1.2 nm linewidth. The soliton pulses are found randomly spaced within the fundamental period corresponding to cavity round trip time. The autocorrelation trace shows that the pulse width is 2.4 ps, which is in good agreement with the theoretical prediction. The pulsewidth- bandwidth product is found to be 0.348 which means that the pulses are nearly transform-limited.imited.

A fast-switching current-pulse driver for light emitting diode (LED) backlight is proposed. It uses a regulated drain current mirror (RD-CM) [1] and a high-voltage NMOS transistor (HV-NMOS). It achieves the fast-response current-pulse switching by using a dynamic gain-boosting amplifier (DGB-AMP). The DGB-AMP does not discharge the large HV-NMOS gate capacitance of the RD-CM when the output current switch turns off. Therefore, it does not need to charge the HV-NMOS gate capacitance when the switch turns on. The proposed current-pulse driver achieves the fast current switching by removing the repetitive gate discharging and charging. Simulation results were verified with measurements performed on a fabricated chip using a 5V/40V 0.5um BCD process. It reduces the switching delay to 360ns from 700ns of the conventional current-pulse driver.

The mapping of the spin-spin relaxation time T2 in pixel-by-pixel was suggested as a quantitative diagnostic tool in medicine. although the CPMG pulse sequence has been known to be the best pulse sequence for T2 measurement in physics NMR, the supplied pulse sequence by the manufacture of MRI system was able to obtain the maximum of 4 CPMG images. Eight or more images with different echo time TEs are required to construct a reliable T2 map, so that two or more acquisitions were required, which easily took more than 10 minutes. 4-echo CPMG imaging pulse sequence was modified to generate the maximum of 8 MR images with evenly spaced echo time TEs. In human MR imaging, since patients tend to move at least several pixels between the different acquisitions, 8-echo CPMG imaging sequence reduces the acquisition time and may remove any mis-regitration of each pixels signal for the fitting of T2. The resultant T2 maps using the theoretically simulated images and using the MR images of the human brain suggested that 8 echo CPMG sequence with short echo spacing such as 17-20 msec can give the reliable T2 map.

Hopping sequences of Time Hopped Ultra Wideband Impulse Radio (TH-UWB-IR) system are to mitigate multipath fading and to provide the multiple access chances for multi users. For the reliable communications, the same pulses are repeatedly transmitted for a bit duration based on hopping sequences. The proposed decoding scheme utilizes the intervals of inter-codes in a frame where the short interval between two pulses leads to the large interference by the multipath fading. For a single user case, the proposed method obtains 0.5dB gain over the conventional method at BER=$10^{-3}$. Decoding performance of repeated pulses can be increased using the property of the hopping sequences of multi users.

현재, 빛을 이용한 화학 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있고 이러한 연구는 양자역학을 기반으로 화학에서 상당히 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있다. 또한 컴퓨터의 발전에 따라 여러 계산 모델들이 개발되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 회전파 근사(Rotating Wave Approximation, RWA)를 통해 라비 진동을 이론적으로 확인하고, 가장 간단한 연속파 레이저와 두 에너지 준위에서 시작하여 레이저 펄스와 두 에너지 준위, 레이저 펄스와 이원자분자인 $Na_2$ 분자의 두 전자에너지 퍼텐셜 준위, 그리고 실제 시간 밀도 범함수 이론(Real-Time Time Dependent Density Functional Theory, RT-TDDFT)이란 제일원리계산을 통해 연속파 레이저와 $H_2$ 분자와 $C_2H_4$ 분자에서까지 관찰하였다. 이 연구를 통해 공명 전이의 경우 펄스의 면적이 ${\pi}$의 홀수 배일 때 완전한 입자수 전이가 일어나는 펄스 면적 정리를 확인할 수 있었고, 이원자분자인 $Na_2$의 경우엔 펄스의 지속시간도 입자수 전이에 영향을 미친다는 것을 확인하였다. 더 나아가 $H_2$ 분자와 $C_2H_4$ 분자에서는 RT-TDDFT 계산을 통해 라비 진동을 확인할 수 있었고, 두 종류의 기저함수간의 대조를 통해 기저함수 선택의 중요성을 알아보았고, 가장 중요하게는 레이저를 잘 조작하면 입자를 원하는 상태로 들뜨게 할 수 있다는 것이란 결론을 얻게 되었다.
