We propose a 7-level atom model, which takes into account two-photon coherence effects in saturation absorption spectroscopy. Using this model we explained spectral change with laser intensity and some of crossover resonance lines, which cannot be explained with Nakayama theory. The 7-level model consists of two upper levels and five lower levels, which account for $\pi-\pi$ polarization of both pump and probe beams in Zeeman sub levels. We compared our 7-level model with 4-level Nakayama theory for 5S$_{1/2}$ - 5P$_{1/2}$ transition line in $^{85}$Rb atoms. The results of the 7-level model calculation agree well the saturation absorption spectra data according to laser intensities.

In this work a method to detect the vibrational peak and to decide the vibrational mode of detected peak for core internal vibration monitoring system which is particularly concerned on the core support barrel (CSB) and fuel assemblies is developed. Flow induced vibration and aging process in the reactor internals cause unsoundness of the internal structure. In order to monitor the vibrational status of core internal, signals from the ex-core neutron detectors are transformed into frequency domain. By analyzing transformed frequency domain signal, an analyst can acquire the information on the vibrational characteristics of the structures, i.e., vibration frequencies of each component, vibrational level, modes of vibration, and the causes of the abnormal vibration, if any. This study is focused on the development of the automated monitoring system. Several methods are surveyed to define the peaks in power spectrum and fuzzy theory is used to automatic detection of the vibrational peaks. Fuzzy algorithm is adopted to define the modes of vibration using the peak values from fuzzy peak recognition, phase spectrum, and coherence spectrum.

A type IP-2 transport package should prevent a loss or dispersal of the radioactive contents and a more than $20\%$ increase in the maximum radiation level at any external surface of the package when it were subjected to the drop test under the normal conditions of transport. If a shielding thickness of IP-2 transport package is thick, a bolted lid type may prevent a loss or dispersal of the radioactive contents than the door type of ISO containers which are generally used as a type IP-2 transport package. In this paper, to evaluate the effect of drop directions on the bolt tension and the coherence of a bolt, the drop tests of preliminary small model are tested and evaluated for seven directions before the drop test of a type IP-2 transport package with a bolted lid type under the normal conditions of transport. Seven drop directions which are a bottom-vertical drop, a lid-vortical drop. a horizontal drop and four corner drops have been carried out. Using a force sensor, the bolt tension during the drop impact is measured. The coherence of bolt is evaluated by the difference between the fastening torque of bolt before a drop test and the unfastening torque of bolt after a drop impact.

결맞음 광원과 원자의 상호작용으로 원자의 에너지 준위간에 원자결맞음(atomic coherence)이 발생하고, 이러한 원자결맞음으로 많은 새로운 현상들이 나타난다. 흥미로운 원자결맞음 현상의 대표적인 예가 전자기 유도 투과(EIT)와 전자기 유도 흡수 (EIA) 현상이다. 특히, F'=F＋1 의 축퇴된 2준위 원자와 레이저가 상호 작용할 때 공명주파수에서 조사광의 흡수신호가 급격히 증가하는 전자기 유도 흡수 현상을 관측할 수 있다. (중략)

원자가 전자기파와 상호작용할 때 원자 전이의 결맞음 여기 (coherent excitation of atomic transitions)는 일반적인 현상이다. 이 상호작용은 라비 진동 (Rabi oscillation), 자유 유도 감쇠 (free induction decay), 단열 밀도 이송 (adiabatic population transfer), 결맞음 과도 (coherent transients； CT) 등 다양한 결과를 가져온다. 특히, 전자기파의 주파수가 원자의 공진주파수를 중심으로 스윕될 때 결맞음 과도 현상 (coherent transient phenomenon)은 밀도 반전 (population reversal)을 유도하기도 한다.

We present a single shot low coherence white light Hilbert phase microscopy (WL-HPM) for quantitative phase imaging of Si optoelectronic devices, i.e., Si integrated circuits (Si-ICs) and Si solar cells. White light interferograms were recorded by a color CCD camera and the interferogram is decomposed into the three colors red, green and blue. Spatial carrier frequency of the WL interferogram was increased sufficiently by means of introducing a tilt in the interferometer. Hilbert transform fringe analysis was used to reconstruct the phase map for red, green and blue colors from the single interferogram. 3D step height map of Si-ICs and Si solar cells was reconstructed at multiple wavelengths from a single interferogram. Experimental results were compared with Atomic Force Microscopy and they were found to be close to each other. The present technique is non-contact, full-field and fast for the determination of surface roughness variation and morphological features of the objects at multiple wavelengths.

We have analyzed theoretically optical pulse propagation in a coherent atomic medium for amplification without inversion (AWI), which is achieved by adding incoherent optical pumping to a typical EIT system. In order to explain experimental results [Kim et al., J. Phys. B, 36, 2671(2003)] to control the group velocity of the optical pulse by changing pumping power, we established a 5-level atomic system and applied density matrix equations. This AWI model system is different from previous AWI systems from the viewpoint of using two levels for incoherent optical pumping isolated optically from the EIT (electromagentically induced transparency) system so that more atoms can participate in pulse speed control. We have found that population transfer by collisions between ground states plays a decisive role for efficient AWI, and more atoms are effective for slowing the pulse. Our numerical results are in good agreement qualitatively with experimental results.

One of properties which X-ray and Neutron can be applied nondestructive test is penetration into the object with interaction leads to decrease in intensity. X-ray interaction with the matter caused by electrons, Neutron caused by atoms. They share applications in nondestructive test area because of their similarities of interaction mechanism. Grating interferometer is the one of applications produces phase contrast image and dark field image. It is defined by Talbot interferometer and Talbot-Lau interferometer according to Talbot effect and Talbot-Lau effect respectively. Talbot interferometer works with coherence beam like X-ray, and Talbot-Lau has an effect with incoherence beam like Neutron. It is important to expect the interference in grating interferometer compared normal nondestructive system. In this paper, simulation works are conducted according to Talbot and Talbot-Lau interferometer in case of X-ray and Neutron. Variation of interference intensity with X-ray and Neutron based on wave theory is constructed and calculate elements consist the system. Additionally, Talbot and Talbot-Lau interferometer is simulated in different kinds of conditions.

We investigated the characteristics of the nonlinear magneto-optic effect (NMOE) depend on the transitions, the laser intensity and the temperature of the vapor cell, in the $D_1$ transition of $^{87}Rb$ atoms by using the Rb vapor cell contained with buffer gas of Ne 6.7 kPa. The size and the width of NMOE signal were increased according to the light intensity and temperature in the transition of F=2$\to$F'=2. However, In the case of using the F=2$\to$F'=1 transition, the size of the signal could be increased according to the light intensity without additional broadening of the width. We confirmed that the sensitivity of detecting small magnetic flux improved in this transition, and explained these effects by the different of the CPT configuration between Zeeman sublevels. At the optimal condition in experiment, the sensitivity of this system was evaluated less then $70pT/\sqrt{Hz}$.

We have constructed two extended-cavity diode lasers which are phase-locked with a 9.2 GHz frequency offset. We adopted a digital servo circuit for the phase-locking. The relative linewidth of the phase-locked lasers was less than 2 Hz. Using the measured beat spectrum, we found the carrier concentration to be about 93 %. We measured phase noise and relative frequency stability of the lasers. The Allan deviation at the gate time of 20 s was $2.7{\times}10^{-19}$.
