An existing infrared (IR) analysis system is generally composed of infrared source, IR focusing lenses, IR detector, and optical chopper. An optical chopper is widely used in combination with lock-in amplifier to improve the signal-to-noise ratio by periodically interrupting incident light beam. During recent years, a few researches on miniaturized optical chopper have been reported to apply to micro-scaled optical systems. In this paper, a micro optical chopper operated by electromagnetic actuation is proposed and applied to a miniaturized micro-scaled optical system operating in IR spectral range. Additionally, the fabrication method of the proposed micro chopper is demonstrated. The proposed micro optical chopper is composed of the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane, solenoid, and permanent magnet. The permanent magnet is bonded on the PDMS membrane using an ultraviolet-activated adhesive. The operation of the chopper is based on the attractive and repulsive forces between permanent magnet and solenoid induced by an electrical current flowing through the solenoid. The fabricated micro optical chopper could operate up to 200 Hz of frequency. The maximum operating distance of the chopper with 7mm diameter membrane was $750{\mu}m$ at 100 Hz of frequency.

Cyclotron-accelerated ion beams are used for various researches, such as nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry, biotechnology, and material sciences including radio-isotope production. Recently considerable applications are asked to the cyclotron development undertaken to meet user requirements of various ions'energies, intensities, and their pulsed beams. For instance, a cocktail beam acceleration technique rapidly changing the ion species and energies was developed to irradiating integrated circuit chips. Also a chopping system in a cyclotron injection line is considered for producing a pulsed ion beam with a relatively long period compared with that generated by the resonance frequency. For the research in neutron time-of-flight measurement, a single-pulsed beam with a repetition interval of the order of mili-seconds or longer is necessary to have a good resolution and to remove background events. In this paper a feasibility of pulsed beam with an external ion source is simulated by adopting a combination system of a chopper accompanying with a bunching stage in the injection line and an additional chopper after the exit of the cyclotron in order to produce beam pulses with a range of $1{\mu}s{\sim}1ms$ periods from a resonance RF cycle. The pulseperiod will be adjusted by chopping the number of beam bunches from the injected pulses in the injection line. However, the longer pulses will have reduced number of beam pulses and sacrificed beam currents. Because the beam users need an intense single pulsed beam, a careful tuning of the acceleration phase and a high-intense external ion source are necessary to achieve an intense single-pulsed beam from the cyclotron. It is essential to strictly match the acceleration phase of injected beams in the central region of the cyclotron to improve its efficiency. An effect of space charge at each pulse from the ion source will be also considered.

A new technique utilizing LII signal for the measurement of flow velocities of laminar diffusion flames has been investigated. Soot particles in ethylene diffusion flames are heated by a modulated Ar-ion laser beam. LII signals and their phase angles are measured using a lock-in amplifier at the different flame heights and the axial flow velocity are obtained from the measured phase angle delay. The measured velocities are similar to those from LDV measurements under the same operating conditions. The effects of laser power, LII signal wavelength, and modulation frequency are not sensitive to the velocity measurement. However, the choice of an optical chopper blade type could affect the measurement result. The use of a 6/5 chopper blade showed the better result that is possibly due to the square shape of modulated laser beam. This study successfully demonstrated that axial flow velocities of laminar diffusion flames can be measured by a new technique utilizing LII signal, which does not need particle seeding unlikely to LDV or PIV techniques.

Chaotic states of a low-frequency modulating C.W .Co2 laser beam is observed. The output behaviors appear quasi-periodicity and chaotic states when the laser beam is modulated from 100Hz to 1000Hz by using an intracavity chopper. And the output characteristics of the laser beam show a route to chaos as increasing input power when the modulation speed is 500Hz.

The modulated LII technique has been suggested for the measurement of axial velocity profiles of laminar diffusion flames. The theoretical background is explained based on the blackbody radiation and LII signal. Experimentally, soot particles in ethylene diffusion flames are heated by a modulated Ar-ion laser beam. LII signals and their phase angles are measured using a lock-in amplifier at the different flame heights and the axial flow velocities are obtained from the measured phase angle delay informations. The measured velocities are similar to those from LDV measurements under the same operating conditions. The effects of laser power, LII signal wavelength, and modulation frequencies are not sensitive to the velocity measurement. However, the choice of an optical chopper blade type could affect the measurement result. The use of a 6/5 chopper blade showed the better result that is. possibly due to the square shape of modulated laser beam. This study successfully demonstrated that axial flow velocities of laminar diffusion flames can be measured by a new technique utilizing LII signal, which does not need particle seeding unlikely to LDV or PIV techniques.

In modern industry the requirement of automation of manufacturing process increases so that unmanned system has been popular as an ultimate goal of modern manufacturing process. In unmanned manufacturing process the tool fracture is a very serious problem because it results in the damage of workpieces and can stop the operation of whole manufa- turing system. In this study, image processing technique is used to detect the fracture of insert tip of face milling using multi-point-tool. In order to acquire the image information of fracture shape of rotation insert tip. We set up the optical system using a light beam chopper. In this system we can reduce the image degradation generated from stopped image of rotating insert tip using image restoration technique. We calculated the mean square error to diagnose the condition of tool fracture, and determind the criteria of tool fracture using experimental and staticstical method. From the results of this study we've developed non- contact detection technique of tool fracture using image processing method and proposed the fracture direction of automation and unmanned system considering the optimal time of tool change milling.

$Ar^{+}$레이저로 펌핑되는 Nd:glass레이저를 제작하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. 레이저 공진기는 오목거울 두 개와 98% 고반사 평면경, 그리고 Brewster 각도로 놓인 Nd:glass 의 이득 매질로 구성되었으며, 효율적인 펌핑을 위해서 $Ar^{+}$레이저 광선을 공진기 길이 방향으로 입사하여 공진모우드의 beam waist에서 초점이 맺히도록 하였다. Nd:glass의 열존도도가 작아서 흡수된 펌핑빔에 의해 생성된 잔열로 인한 매질의 손상이 우려되기 때문에 mechanical chopper 로 펌핑빔을 100Hz로 끊어서 입사하여 잔열의 생성을 줄였다. 1.5W로 펌핑될 때 Nd:glass 레이저의 출력은 70mW이었고 발진이 되는 문턱에서의 펌핑파워는 520mW이었으며 slope efficiency는 7.4%이었다.

70 MeV 사이클로트론의 인젝션 빔 라인은 Multi-CUSP 이온원에서 인출된 H- 빔을 펄스 또는 번칭하여 인플렉터를 통해 사이클로트론의 가속영역인 Dee로 전송하는 역할을 한다. 이 때, 빔을 번칭 시킴으로써 가속효율을 높이고, 손실을 줄여 높은 전류의 빔을 공급할 수 있도록 해야한다. 인젝션 시스템은 einzel lens, chopper, buncher, solenoid 등으로 구성된다. Einzel lens는 빔을 buncher의 중심으로 집속시켜 buncher의 번칭 효율을 높이고, buncher는 전기장을 이용하여 빔을 진행방향으로 집속시키는 기능을 갖는다. Chopper는 번칭된 빔을 일정 주기로 편향을 시켜 펄스 빔의 형태로 전송하는 역할을 한다. 솔레노이드는 적절한 자기장을 이용하여 빔을 집속시켜 인플렉터로 전송한다. 본 연구에서는 사이클로트론의 고전류 인젝션 시스템을 구축하고 각각의 구성요소에서 빔 envelope를 계산하고 비교하였다. SIMION code는 user가 지정한 특성을 가진 개별 입자의 궤도를 추적하는 프로그램으로 인젝션 시스템을 구성하는 각각의 컴포넌트에서의 입자의 진행모습과 buncher를 이용하여 빔의 전송 밀도가 향상됨을 확인하였다. 아울러 TRANSPORT 및 TURTLE 프로그램을 이용하여 SIMION을 통해 계산된 빔의 envelope과 비교하였다.

고체 시료를 대상으로 하여 silicon wafer에는 $90^{\circ}$ wedge형 진동자를 사용하고 압전재료인 $LiTaO_3$에는 interdigital transducer(IDT)를 사용하였으며, knife edge를 이용한 광학적 검지(optical probing)법을 써서 표면탄성파의 발생 및 측정하는 기법으로써 재료에서의 표면탄성파의 감쇠를 검출하는 방법을 연구하였다. IDT1 및 IDT2로는 20.8 MHz와 14.5 MHz를, $90^{\circ}$ wedge형 진동자로부터는 20.0 MHz의 표면탄성파를 발생시켰으며 표면탄성파로 생기는 표면의 굴곡을 검출하는데 He-Ne laser beam을 이용하였다. Optical chopper로 변조시킨 laser beam을 같은 주파수로 변조시킨 표면탄성파에 입사시켜 산란되는 광을 같은 주파수로 동조된 lock-in amplifier로 검출하였다. 이와 같이 함으로써 검출할 표면탄성파와 검출에 사용된 laser beam 및 측정기기인 위상감지기(Phase Sensitive Detector : PSD)를 같은 주파수로 변조하여 동기시킬 수 있었으며 측정계를 단순화하였다. IDT1, IDT2에서 발생된 표면탄성과의 감쇠계수는 각각 $0.62{\sim}0.75dB/mm,\;0.60{\sim}0.72dB/mm$였으며 wedge형 진동자에서는 $0.83{\sim}1.28dB/mm$인 값을 얻었다.
