This study investigated the reflection spectra of wrinkled metal/polymer multilayers. A wavy surface was self-assembled by annealing an aluminum-coated poly(methyl metacrylate) layer on a silicon substrate. The total and diffuse reflectance characteristics of the sample with additional metal coatings(aluminum or silver) were evaluated in the visible wavelength(400~800 nm) using a spectrophotometer. The results showed that the wrinkled surface enhanced the diffuse reflectance up to 40~50% in the lower-wavelength range, demonstrating its potential for applications to optical thin-film devices.

Scattering coefficients of randomly rough lossy dielectric surfaces were computed by using the FDTD(Finite-Difference Time-Domain) method and the Monte Carlo method in this paper. The FDTD method was applied to compute electromagnetic wave scattering characteristics at any incident angles, any linear polarizations by dividing the computation region into the total-field region and the scattered-field region. The radar cross sections(RCS) of conducting cylinders have been computed and compared with theoretical results, measurement data and the results from the method of moment(MoM) to verify the FDTD algorithm. Then, to apply the algorithm to compute scattering coefficients of distributed targets, a two-dimensionally rough surface was generated numerically for given roughness characteristics. The far-zone scattered fields of 50 statistically independent dielectric rough surfaces were computed and the scattering coefficient of the surface was calculated from the scattered fields by using the Monte Carlo method. It was found that these scattering coefficients agree well with the SPM(Small Pertubation Method) model in its validity region.

The classification of surface flaw types was performed on the basis of angular dependence of backscattered ultrasound. The copper line adhered on the surface, cower line filled in groove, pure groove and the normal edge were adopted as various surface flaw patterns of glass specimen. A backward longitudinal profile was formed probably by the longitudinal wane scattering at and near 1st critical angle. The wave trains at the peak angles of the backward radiation profiles showed different shapes according to the superposition ratio of scattered and leaky waves. The asymmetry of the backward radiation profile arose due to the scattering effect of flaw. The additive resonance effect of copper line appeared in the left side of the profile. The peak angles of both the longitudinal and radiation profiles were shifted toward small angle by the scattering effect.

Si 산화는 반도체 공정상 필요한 과정으로 산업적으로나 학문적으로 중요하고 많이 연구되었다. 이중에서 Si(1110-7x7표면에서 초기 흡착된 산소는 준안정적 상태로 존재하며 표면온도, 산소의 노출량 그리고 진공도에 따라 그 수명이 제한된다. 이러한 준안정적 상태의 산소의 화학적 성질은 여러 표면분석장비가 동원되어 연구되었으나 아직까지 논쟁이 되고 있다. 이 경우 산소가 어떤 상태로 존재하는가는 표면화학종을 검출함으로서 해결될 수 있다. 저에너지 Cs+ 이온 반응성 산란은 이러한 요구를 충족시킬수 있는 가장 적합한 실험 방법중의 하나이다. 저에너지 Cs+ 이온 산란의 특징 중의 하나는 입사된 Cs+ 이온이 표면에 흡착된 화학종과 충돌후 탈착되면서 반응을 하여 송이 이온을 형성한다는 것이다. 이 송이 이온을 관측함으로서 표면에 존재하는 화학종을 알아 낼 수 있다. 이에 산소가 흡착된 Si(111)-7x7 표면에서의 산소의 준안정적 상태가 저에너지 Cs+ 이온 산란 실험을 통하여 연구되었다. 실험은 0.2-2L(1Langmuir = 10-6 Torr x 1 sec) 산소 노출량과 -15$0^{\circ}C$ - $25^{\circ}C$의 표면온도 그리고 5eV - 20eV의 Cs+ 이온 충돌에너지에서 CsSiO+ 이온이 유일한 생산물로서 검출되었다. CsSiO+ 이온은 입사된 Cs+ 이온과 표면에 존재하는 SiO 분자가 충돌 후 반응하여 탈착된 것으로 생각된다. 이것은 낮은 산소 노출량 즉, 초기 산화 단계에서 SiO가 표면에 존재한다는 것을 의미한다. 즉, 산소 분자는 산화단계의 초기에 해리되어 표면에 흡착되고 선구물질인 SiO를 형성함을 제시한다. 최근의 이론적 계산인 density functional calculation에서도 산소분자가 Si(111)-7$\times$7 표면의 준안정적 산화상태의 선구물질일 가능성을 배제한다. 이는 본 저에너지 Cs+ 이온 반응성 산란실험을 뒷받침하는 계산 결과이다. 높은 Cs+ 이온 충돌에너지에서 CsSi+, Si+, SiO+, Si2+, Si2O+ 등이 추가로 검출되었다. 이는 CsSi 이온을 제외하고 수 keV의 충돌에너지를 사용하는 이차 이온 질량 분석법과 비슷한 결과이다.

The backscattering coefficients of a bare soil surface were measured using an R-band polarimetric scatterometer, which were used to verify the validities of scattering models and inversion algorithms. The soil moisture contents and the surface roughness parameters (the RMS height and correlation length) were also measured from the soil surface. The backscattering coefficients were obtained from several scattering models with these surface parameters, and the computation results were compared with the measured backscattering coefficients. The soil moisture contents of the surface were retrieved from the measured backscattering coefficients, and compared with the measured surface parameters. This paper shows how well the scattering models agree with the measurements, and also shows the inversion results.

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.

In computer graphics, realistic skin rendering has been regarded as difficult tasks and remains as an important research subject. Translucent materials like skin have some complicated optical properties including subsurface scattering. In this paper, we proposes a skin shader based on subsurface scattering to render realistic skin and it has been implemented as a plug-in for Maya, 3D Package. The rendered image using this proposed skin shader appears more realistic than the rendered image using classical shading techniques. Furthermore, we could model sebum, epidermis, dermis using specular reflection, multiple scattering, single scattering respectively.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find a optimal beam spoiler condition on the dose distribution near the surface, when treating a squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck and a lymphatic region with 10 MV photon beam. The use of a optimal spoiler allows elivering high dose to a superficial tumor volume, while maintaining the skin-sparing effect in the area between the surface to the depth of 0.4 cm. Materials and Methods: The lucite beam spoiler, which were a tissue equivalent, were made and placed between the surface and the photon collimators of linear accelerator. The surface-dose, the dose at the depth of 0.4 cm, and the maximum dose at the dmax were measured with a parallel-plate ionization chamber for $5{\times}5cm\;to\;30{\times}30cm^2$ field sizes using lucite spoilers with different thicknesses at varying skin-to-spoiler separation (SSS). In the same condition, the dose was measured with bolus and compared with beam spoiler. Results: The spoiler increased the surface and build-up dose and shifted the depth of maximum dose toward the surface. With a 10 MV x-ray beam and a optimal beam spoiler when treating a patient, a similer build-up dose with a 6 MV photon beam could be achieved, while maintaining a certain amount of skin spring. But it was provided higher surface dose under SSS of less than 5 cm, the spoiler thickness of more than 1.8 cm or more, and larger field size than $20{\times}20cm^2$ provided higher surface dose like bolus and obliterated the spin-sparing effect. the effects of the beam spoiler on beam profile was reduced with increasing depths. Conclusion: The lucite spoiler allowed using of a 10 MV photon beam for the radiation treatment of head and neck caner by yielding secondary scattered electron on the surface. The dose at superficial depth was increased and the depth of maximum dose was moved to near the skin surface. Spoiling the 10 MV x-ray beam resulted in treatment plans that maintained dose homogeneity without the consequence of increased skin reaction or treat volume underdose for regions near the skin surface. In this, the optimal spoiler thickeness of 1.2 cm and 1.8 cm were found at SSS of 7 cm for $10{\times}10cm^2$ field. The surface doses were measured 60% and 64% respectively. In addition, It showed so optimal that 94% and 94% at the depth of 0.4 cm and dmax respectively.

In this paper, the scattered field from a Pierson-Moskowitz sea surface assumed as the PEC by the Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) method was computed. A one-dimensional surface used to analysis scattering was generated by using the Pierson-Moskowitz model. Back scattering coefficients are calculated with different values of the wind speed(U) which determine configuration of the Pierson-Moskowitz sea surface. The number of surface realization for the computed field, the point number, and the width of surface realization are set to be 50, 8192, and 128k, respectively. In order to verify the computed values these results are compared with those of small perturbation methods, which show good agreement between them.

RIS(Reactive Ion Scattering)은 저 에너지 이온 빔을 쏘아 표면을 분석하는 방법이다. 분자 동력학 계산(MD simulation) 결과에 따르면 $Cs^+$이온은 두꺼운 얼음 표면에서 산란이 거의 일어나지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 이와 달리 Pt(111)과 Ru(0001) 표면에 생성시킨 두꺼운 얼음 표면에서 $Cs^+$이온 산란 실험이 가능함을 보였다. 한편, RIS signal은 얼음 층이 쌓인 구조나 두께에 따라 영향을 받는데, Ru(0001)과 Pt(111)의 표면에 생성시킨 crystalline water ice에서 시간과 water ice film의 두께가 RIS signal에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지도 조사하였다.
