Submicron-sized polymeric colloidal particles can self assemble into 3-dimensional (3D) opal structure which is a useful template for photonic crystal. Narrowly dispersed polymer microspheres can be synthesized by emulsion polymerization in water using water-soluble radical initiator. In this report, we demonstrate a facile and reproducible emulsion polymerization method to prepare various polymeric microspheres within 200 - 400 nm size ranges which can be utilized as colloidal photonic crystal template. By controlling the amount of monomer and surfactant, monodisperse polymer colloids of polystyrene (PS) and acrylates with various sizes were successfully prepared without complicated synthetic procedures. Such polymer colloids self-assembled into 3D opal structure exhibiting bright colors by reflection of visible light. The colloidal particles and the resulting opal structures were rigorously characterized, and the wavelength of the structural color from the colloidal crystal was confirmed to have quantitative relationship with the size of constituting colloidal particles as predicted by Bragg equation. The tunability of the structural color was achieved not only by varying the particle size but also by infiltration of the colloidal crystal with liquids having different refractive indices.

We studied the electrical characteristics of pentacene-based organic field-effect transistors (FETs) with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or poly-4-vinylphenol (PVP) as the gate insulator. PMMA or PVP was spin-coated on the indium tin oxide glass substrate that serves as gate electrodes. The source-drain current dependence on the gate voltage shows the FET characteristics of the hole accumulation type. The transistor with PVP shows a higher field-effect mobility of 0.14 $cm^{2}/Vs$ compared with 0.045 $cm^{2}/Vs$ for the transistor with PMMA. The atomic force microscope (AFM) images indicate that the grain size of the pentacene on PVP is larger than that on PMMA. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns for the pentacene deposited on PVP exhibit a new Bragg reflection at $19.5{\pm}0.2^{\circ}$, which is absent for the pentacene on PMMA. This peak corresponds to the flat-lying pentacene molecules with less intermolecular spacing.

본 논문에서는 고굴절률 폴리머와 에포다이즈드 격자를 이용한 파장가변필터를 구현하였다. 기존의 에포다이즈드 브래그 격자는 격자의 깊이가 감소하는 부분이 있기 때문에 균일 분포 브래그 격자와 비교하였을 때 반사율이 낮아지게 된다. 이와 같은 문제점을 개선하기 위해서 에포다이즈드 격자 층에 고굴절률 폴리머를 삽입하면 좁은 대역폭을 유지하면서 높은 반사율을 얻을 수 있다. 제작된 파장 가변 필터의 반사율은 98.5%이며, 3-dB와 20-dB 대역폭은 각각 0.51 nm, 1.05 nm 이다.

Smart sensors and actuators have recently been developed. In this study, first, small-diameter fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors developed by the author, whose cladding and polyimide coating diameters were 40 and $52{\mu}m$, respectively, were embedded inside a laminate without resin-rich regions around sensors and the deterioration of mechanical properties of the composite laminate. The small-diameter FBG sensor was embedded in $0^{\circ}$ ply of a CFRP laminate for the detection of transverse cracks in $90^{\circ}$ ply of the laminate. The reflection spectra from the FBG sensor were measured at various tensile stresses. The spectrum became broad and had some peaks with an increase of the transverse crack density. Furthermore, the theoretical calculation reproduced the change in the spectrum very well. These results show that the small-diameter FBG sensors have a potential to detect the occurrence of transverse cracks through the change in the form of the spectrum, and to evaluate the transverse crack density quantitatively by the spectrum width. On the other hand, shape memory alloy (SMA) films were used to suppress the initiation and growth of transverse cracks in CFRP laminates. Pre-strained SMA films were embedded between laminas in CFRP laminates and then heated to introduce the recovery stress in SMA films and compressive stresses in the weakest plies ($90^{\circ}$ ply). The effects of recovery stresses are demonstrated in the experiments and well predicted using the shear-lag analysis and the nonlinear constitutive equation of SMA films.

광섬유격자와 단방향성 광섬유 loop mirror를 이용하여 단일모드로 발진하는 erbium첨가 광섬유레이저를 구성하였다. 이득매질인 erbium첨가 광섬유를 단방향성 loop내에 둠으로써 레이저광이 이득매질내에서 진행파를 이루도록 하고 loop 밖에서 반사 선폭이 0.2nm인 광섬유격자로 파장선택적 귀환시켜 주는 방식으로 공진기를 구성하였다. 수동형 광섬유 링공진기 형태의 광스펙트럼 분석기를 별도로 구성하여 광섬유레이저의 모드 스펙트럼을 관찰한 결과, 외부 온도변화로 인한 분 단위의 모드 튐을 제외하고는 대부분의 시간에 안정적인 단일모드 및 단일편광 상태의 특성을 나타냄을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this research, optical fiber sensors and shape memory alloys (SMA) were incorporated into sandwich panels for development of a smart honeycomb sandwich structure with damage detection and shape recovery functions. First, small-diameter fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were embedded in the adhesive layer between a CFRP face-sheet and an aluminum honeycomb core. From the change in the reflection spectrum of the FBG sensors, the debonding between the face-sheet and the core and the deformation of the face-sheet due to impact loading could be well detected. Then, the authors developed the SMA honeycomb core and bonded CFRP face-sheets to the core. When an impact load was applied to the panel, the cell walls of the core were buckled and the face-sheet was bent. However, after the panel was heated over the reverse transformation finish temperature of the SMA, the core buckling disappeared and the deflection of the face-sheet was relieved. Hence the bending stiffness of the panel could be recovered.

Recently, it is required to develop a monitoring technology that combines an FBG sensor as a means for continuously monitoring whether reinforcing effect of FRP is maintained on FRP reinforced structural members. However, most existing researches focus on the insertion of FBG sensors into bar-shaped FRPs, and there is insufficient study on the details strip-type FRPs combined with FBG sensors. Therefore, in this paper, it is studied to develop a reinforcement in which a FBG sensor is combined with a FRP strip. Especially, combination of FRP and FBG sensor. For this, a series of experiments were performed to find the adhesive strength of fiber-FRP-epoxy joints, the tensile strength of FBG sensor part with reflection-lattice, and the performance depending on the connection method of FRF and FBG sensor. As a result of the study, it was found that a minimum strength of $216.15N/mm^2$ is required for incorporating FBG sensors in FRP using epoxy. It is considered that the adhesion length of epoxy joints should be more than 50mm. When the FBG sensor is attached to the FRP strip as an epoxy, it is considered appropriate to use the complete attachment and the sensor non-attachment method.

대형 구조물의 넓은 영역에 분포된 변형률이나 온도를 모니터링하기 위하여 광섬유 FBG(fiber Bragg grating:브래그 격자) 탐촉자를 사용하는 광섬유 FBG 센서가 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 한개의 라인에 다수의 FBG 탐촉자를 사용하기 위하여 시간 분할 다중화와 파장 분할 다중화를 복합화한 다중화 기술을 제안한다. 일반적으로 광섬유 FBG 센서는 기본적으로 파장 분할 다중화 방식으로 작동되므로 본 연구에서는 시간 분할 다중화에 대한 특성을 고찰한다. 광섬유에 직렬로 연결된 FBG 탐촉자들의 반사도에 따른 반사광의 세기와 그 위치를 이론적으로 계산하고 실험결과와 비교한다. 이론적인 계산에 따르면 5개의 FBG 탐촉자의 반사도를 적절하게 선정함에 의하여 한개의 광섬유 라인에 설치하여 각각의 FBG 탐촉자에서 되돌아오는 반사광의 세기를 균일하게 얻을 수 있음을 확인한다. 이러한 결과를 실험으로 확인하기 위하여 반사도가 13%, 16%, 25%, 40%, 80%인 FBG 탐촉자를 제작하고, 시간 영역에서 각각의 FBG 탐촉자에서 되돌아오는 반사 신호를 관찰한다. 실험 결과는 신호잡음의 영향으로 이론적인 결과와 차이가 있지만, 복합 다중화 기법의 사용 가능성을 증명하는 5개의 FBG 탐촉자의 반사 신호를 모두 보인다.

FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) sensors and optical fibers were embedded into CFRP dry preforms before resin impregnation in VaRTM (Vacuum-assisted Resin Transfer Molding). The embedding location was the interface between the skin and the stringer in a CFRP-stiffened panel. The reflection spectra of the FBG sensors monitored the strain and temperature changes during all the molding processes. The internal residual strains of the CFRP panel could be evaluated during both the curing time and the post-curing time. The temperature changes indicated the differences between the dry preform and the outside of the vacuum bagging. After the molding, four-point bending was applied to the panel for the verification of its structural integrity and the sensor capabilities. The optical fibers were then used for the newly-developed PPP-BOTDA (Pulse-PrePump Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis) system. The long-range distributed strain and temperature can be measured by this system, whose spatial resolution is 100 mm. The strain changes from the FBGs and the PPP-BOTDA agreed well with those from the conventional strain gages and FE analysis in the CFRP panel. Therefore, the fiber-optic sensors and its system were very effective for the evaluation of the VaRTM composite structures.
