주기적인 홀로그램을 제작하기 위한 일반적인 CGH(computer generated hologram)의 설계 프로그램은 회절각 공간에서 설정한 모델 방정식을 사용하고 있다. 따라서 비교적 큰 회절각을 사용하는 경우 평면에서 관찰되는 이미지는 설계와 큰 차이가 생기게 된다. 이를 보정하기 위하여 이러한 오차의 발생원인을 회절이론 분석을 통하여 모델 방정식을 만들었으며 이를 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 또한 회절각 기반의 기존 프로그램을 교정하지 않으면서 이러한 오차를 보정하기 위한 설계 방법을 제시한다.

본 연구에서는 광 지연선로를 이용한 스퀸팅(squinting)이 없는 위상배열 안테나의 근접장 미세파장 포커싱(subwavelength focusing)을 디자인하고 전산모사를 통해 검증하였다. 마이크로파 파장에서 위상배열 안테나의 수치적 계산을 위해 호이겐스-프레넬(Huygens-Fresnel) 원리를 적용하였다. 제안하는 시스템은 첩 광섬유 격자(chirped fiber grating)에 기반한 광 지연선로를 이용하여 빔 스퀸팅이 생기지 않는다는 것을 전산모사를 통해 확인하였다. 그리고 개별 안테나의 배열은 광학렌즈시스템에서 회절 소자로 간주할 수 있음에 착안해 높은 개구율(numerical aperture)을 구현하고 미세파장 포커싱을 얻었다. 또한, 위상배열 안테나의 안테나 사이 거리를 반파장 이하로 줄여 사이드 로브를 억제할 수 있음을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 단매와 대칭 2매로 구성된 DOE렌즈를 1/3인치 이미지 센서(크기 4.8mm $\times$ 3.6mm)에 대해 F/2.8, 전장길이(이미지 면 포함 거리) 6.8mm로 최적 설계하였고 그 광학성능 및 각종 특성치들을 비교, 분석하였다. 그 결과 단매 DOE렌즈의 단점으로 여겨지는 유효직경 내의 많은 회절링의 수, 설계차수 외로 파장별 회절되는 광에 의해 화면에 나타나는 플레어 및 색번짐, 큰 왜곡수차 등을 대칭 2매의 렌즈를 사용함에 의해 최소가 되도록 할 수 있었다.

The multifocal multiphoton microscopy (MMM) enables high-speed imaging by the concurrent scanning and detection of multiple foci generated by lenslet array or diffractive optical element. The MMM system mainly suffers from crosstalk generated by scattered emission photons that form ghost images among adjacent channels. The ghost image which is a duplicate of the image acquired in sub-images significantly degrades overall image quality. To eliminate the ghost image, the photon reassignment method was established using maximum likelihood estimation. However, this post-processing method generally takes a longer time than image acquisition. In this regard, we propose a novel strategy for rapid noise reduction in the MMM system based upon Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation. Ballistic signal, scattering signal, and scattering noise of each channel are quantified in terms of photon distribution launched in tissue model based on MC simulation. From the analysis of photon distribution, we successfully eliminated the ghost images in the MMM sub-images. If the priori MC simulation under a certain optical condition is established at once, our simple, but robust post-processing technique will continuously provide the noise-reduced images, while significantly reducing the computational cost.

This paper presents the new method for a six-degree-of-freedom (DOF) motion measurement and those dynamic characterizations in an ultraprecision linear stage using angle sensor-implemented grating interferometry. It consists of a diffractive optical element, a corner cube, four separate two-dimensional position sensitive detectors, four photodiodes and auxiliary optics components. From the previous study, it was confirmed that the proposed optical system could measure a six-DOF motion error in a linear stage. In this article, six-DOF motion dynamic characteristics of the stage were investigated through the step response and with respect to the conditions with a different speed of a slide table. As a result, the natural frequency and damping ratio according to a six-DOF direction was obtained. Also, it was seen that the speed of slide table had an significant effect on a six-DOF displacement motion, especially, X, which was considered as the effect of friction mechanism and local elastic mechanical deformation in a slide guide.

Background and Objectives A picosecond-domain laser treatment using a microlens array (MLA) or a diffractive optical element elicits therapeutic micro-injury zones in the skin. This study examined the patterns of tissue reactions after delivering multiple pulses of 1,064-nm, MLA-type, picosecond neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser treatment. Materials and Methods Multiple pulses of picosecond laser treatment were delivered to ex vivo human or brown micropig skin and analyzed histopathologically. A high-speed cinematographic study was performed to visualize the multiple pulses of picosecond laser energy-induced skin reactions in in vivo human skin. Results In the ex vivo human skin, a picosecond laser treatment at a fluence of 0.3 J/cm² over 100 non-stacking passes generated multiple lesions of thermally-initiated laser-induced optical breakdown (TI-LIOB) in the epidermis and dermis. In the ex vivo micropig skin, stacking pulses of 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 at a fluence of 0.3 J/cm² generated distinct round to oval zones of tissue coagulation in the mid to lower dermis. High-speed cinematography captured various patterns of twinkling, micro-spot reactions on the skin surface over 100 stacked pulses of a picosecond laser treatment. Conclusion Multiple pulses of 1,064-nm, MLA-type, picosecond laser treatment elicit marked TI-LIOB reactions in the epidermis and areas of round to oval thermal coagulation in the mid to deep dermis.

In this paper, we present a method for obtaining a high-quality 3D depth. The advantages of active pattern projection and passive stereo matching are combined and a system is established. A diffractive optical element (DOE) is developed to project the active pattern. Cross guidance (CG) and auto guidance (AG) are proposed to perform the passive stereo matching in a stereo image in which a DOE pattern is projected. When obtaining the image, the CG emits a DOE pattern periodically and consecutively receives the original and pattern images. In addition, stereo matching is performed using these images. The AG projects the DOE pattern continuously. It conducts cost aggregation, and the image is restored through the process of removing the pattern from the pattern image. The ground truth is generated to estimate the optimal parameter among various stereo matching algorithms. Using the ground truth, the optimal parameter is estimated and the cost computation and aggregation algorithm are selected. The depth is calculated and bad-pixel errors make up 4.45% of the non-occlusion area.

Micro patterns are used to maximize the performance and efficiency of the product in many industries such as energy, display, printing, biology, etc. Nowadays, the fabrication technology for micro patterns has been developed in various ways such as photolithography, laser machining, electrical discharge machining and mechanical machining. Recently, mechanical machining the size of smaller than 1 micrometer could be tried, because the technology related to the machining was developed brilliantly. This paper shows the experiments using cutting processes in order to fabricate the micro pattern. Micro patterns of the size of several micrometers were machined by the diamond tools of two different shape, the deformation and generation of burr were investigated.
