We study through computational simulation the focal performance of an infrared (IR) Fresnel lens, composed of a multilayer-graphene zone plate formed under a graphene electrode. Here the Fermi level E_F of the patterned multilayer graphene is adjusted by the overlying graphene electrode. The Fresnel lens effect, with respect to the reflectance contrast between the graphene electrode and the 8-layer graphene zone plate placed on a glass substrate, has been analyzed over a broad wavelength range from 4 to 30 ㎛. As the optimal wavelength of 8 ㎛ (considering the reflectance and the reflectance-contrast ratio) is incident upon the Fresnel lens with a focal length of 240 ㎛, the focal intensity is enhanced by a factor of 4.3 as the E_F of multilayer graphene increases from 0.4 eV to 1.6 eV, and is improved by a factor of 5.8 as the number of graphene layers increases from two to eight. As a result, an all-graphene-based IR Fresnel zone-plate lens, exhibiting multifocal function (240 ㎛ and 360 ㎛) according to the selected E_F, is proposed as an ultrathin lens platform.

Aircraft-warning lights are lights that are used to inform pilots in flight about the presence of buildings or dangerous objects. Currently, the light sources of most aircraft-warning lights have been replaced by light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the aircraft-warning lights that are installed do not meet the optical performance standards and may cause airplane collisions. Therefore, the use of such light poses a risk to aviation safety. In order to solve this problem, we designed a Fresnel lens with the same luminous intensity distribution ovef $360^{\circ}$ direction; thus, we collimated the light beam from the LED light source with a narrow beam divergence angle in the form of an array of aspheric pieces. After that, we designed and simulated an aircraft-warning-light optical system with a center luminous intensity of 20,000 cd and a vertical divergence angle of $3^{\circ}$ or more by optimizing the lens' tilt and the distance between the LED and the Fresnel lens.

Receiving sensitivity of the power gain by using Soret typed FZPL antenna should be worse when obliquely incident wave is illuminated on the FZPL. To solve this problem, elliptic Fresnel Zone Plate Lens antenna system should be introduced. Some numerical results computed by PO method are compared with Kirchhoff's approximation and measurement result.

Purpose: Of the various methods of vision training, the essay aims to explore the effective ways of using the Fresnel prism lens in order to expand the positive fusional vergence for the patient having specific condition of convergence insufficiency or basic exophoria. Methods: 15 students of city of Daejeon university without an eye disease (average age $22.73{\pm}1.68$) were selected and underwent the subjective refraction test and binocular vision test, and recording their test results before vision training and replacing an identical frame with a lens of same quality after the full calibration, the lens was then adhered with the Fresnel prism lens and continued to train for thirty minutes daily during two weeks. Afterwards, the binocular vision test was reattempted. The observation of the change in the results of the binocular vision test in use of the fresnel prism lens in the vision training test was researched. Results: After training, the positive fusional vergence had increased to a number of $22.27{\pm}2.26$ $\Delta$, to 7.80 $\Delta$, at near, the fused cross cylinder test increased to an average of $0.55{\pm}0.09$ D, 0.40 D after training, showing a normal result. The value of negative relative accommodation after training had an average of $2.22{\pm}0.08$D, showing that 0.42 D had increased. The value of near point of convergence after training had an average of $6.13{\pm}0.53$ cm, showing that 2.80 cm had decreased. To patients who had convergence insufficiency or basic exophoria, the value of the near vision test that used the Fresnel prism lens which was able to expand BO positive fusional vergence had increased without phoria. Conclusions: The changes were tested and the effectiveness of the Fresnel prism lens, due to the nature of the lens itself, helped with both cosmetic effects and cost. It also allows good optical correction effects, in addition to these clinical effects indicated before. Therefore, it may be determined that the Fresnel prism lens binocular vision therapy for patients is more popular and highly recommended.

Most numerical techniques such as FEM, BEM, and MOM are able to analize electromagnetic scattering problems from arbitrary shapes. Although these methods could be applied to compute electromagnetic scattering problems in frequency domain, it was limited for electrodynamic problem in time domain. In this paper, electromagnetic scattering problem from Fresnel zone plate lens are considered. Some numerical results computed by TLM are compared with Kirchhoff's approximation and PO method.

Providing marine signal lanterns with advantages of little weight as well as large aperture, a Fresnel lens has been adopted to transfer the beam from the lanterns up to 10 nautical miles (18.53 km). A Fresnel lens with the diameter of 250 mm and 300 mm was designed by a lens design program and optimized by adjusting the groove parameters of the lens. The angular luminous intensity distribution (ALID) of this lens was calculated by using an illumination analysis program considering the ALID of a light bulb. At the best alignment of the bulb, the maximum luminous intensities (MLI) of the lantern were 1000 cd (in the case of 250 mm diameter) and 1300 cd (in the case of 300 mm diameter). These are more than the critical value of 720 cd that is the Korean Standard of MLI for the marine lantern. The ALID was investigated as a function of misalignment from the lens focus to determine the tolerance of the alignment ranges.

기존 해상용 등명기의 경우 빛을 평행하게 만들기 위해 볼록렌즈를 정교하게 절삭하여 곡률을 제작하는 기술이 까다로워 해상용 등명기 제작비용이 비싼 프레넬 렌즈를 사용하고 있다. 따라서 프레넬 렌즈를 사용하지 않고 평행 광을 만들 수 있는 포물선 반사체(parabolic reflector)의 원리를 도입하였다. 포물선 반사체의 원리는 포물선 초점에 있는 LED 광원에서 빛을 반사체에 반사하여 평행 광을 만드는 원리이며, 포물선 반사체에 반사된 빛은 45° 기울기의 원뿔형 반사체에 한 번 더 반사되어 지표면과 평행한 빛을 360° 방향으로 균일하게 내보낸다.

In order to analyze the receiver gain characteristic of the Soret-type FZPL lens antenna which is operated at 12GHz, TLM method can be applied. The application of the FZPL lens antenna is often use the receiver for satellite TV system, radio telescope, and Geodetic System. Some numerical results computed by TLM method are compared with Kirchhoff's approximation and PO method. The focal characteristic of receiver gain on main axis of the FZPL is mostly shown at the front side, which means that the position of the receiver should be properly calibrated.

종래의 프레넬렌즈가 회전하는 중대형 회전식 등명기는 고압방전등(메탈할라이드) 전구를 광원으로 사용하고 있으나, 에너지효율, 수은 등의 함유로 인한 환경오염과 폐기 문제로 인해 2010년 초에서 현재에 이르기까지 선진국을 중심으로 사용규제가 강화되고 있는 실정이다. 국내에 설치 운영되고 있는 회전식 등명기는 내용연수 초과 혹은 도래시기 점차 다가오고 있기 때문에 이에 대한 대응 방안이 필수적인 상황이다. 프레넬렌즈를 회전시키는 회전식 등명기의 LED 광원 개발은 2010년 초부터 해외업체에서 제품출시가 이루어졌으나 국내 중대형 회전식 등명기에 적용된 사례는 없으며 국내에서도 해당 기술 미비로 개발된 사례가 없었다. 이에 본 연구를 통해 단일 고출력 COB LED, 리플렉터, 집광렌즈 등을 이용한 가상초점광원 구현 기술로 회전식 등명기용 LED 광원 연구를 수행하고 해당 연구기술이 적용된 시제품 제작을 통해 성능을 검증하였다.

TLM method to analyize receiver gain characteristic of the FZPL antenna which is operated at 12GHz and can be applied to satellite TV system, radio telescope, and Geodetic System. Some numerical results computed by TLM method are compared with Kirchhoff's approximation and PO method. As a result, receiver gain characteristic on main axis of the 12GHz FZPL antenna is shown at the front side, which means that the focal length is 15% shorter than designed focal length.
