A hyperspectral imaging spectrometer has shown significant advantages in performance over other existing ones for remote sensing applications. It can collect hundreds of narrow, adjacent spectral bands for each image, which provides a wealth of information on unique spectral characteristics of objects. We have developed a compact hyperspectral imaging system that successively shows high spatial and spectral resolutions and fast data processing performance. In this paper, we present an overview of the hyperspectral imaging system including the strucure of geometrical optics and several image processing schemes such as wavelength calibration and noise reduction for image data on Visible and Near-Infrared(VNIR) and Shortwave-Infrared(SWIR) band.

An optical technique to align the laser beam with the rotation axis of a cylindrical microstructure is developed for laser microfabrication. The sample surface is first set normal to the rotation axis by applying a simple reflection law of geometrical optics and then the laser beam is aligned with the rotation axis using translation stages with quadrant photodiodes. Principle and the configuration of the alignment technique are described. An application of the present technique to laser microstereolithography showed that it could be effectively used for fabrication of micro cylindrical structures.

In the case of aeroacoustic test in windtunnel, measurement accuracy is reduced by not only Doppler effects but also by the microphone self noise due to airflow and high turbulence in the wall boundary layer. Microphone array measurements can be easily utilized for the solutions of these problems. In this paper, geometrical optics approach and diagonal term elimination of cross spectral matrix was introduced to the de-dopplerization and self noise reduction methods for the microphone array measurement. For the validation, beamforming tests for sinusoidal point source were performed in the closed type test section of windtunnel, and their performances of beam width and sidelobe rejection were significantly improved.

The radiation characteristics of the subreflector of a shaped dual offset reflector antenna are analyzed by the uniform theory of diffraction(UTD). The discrete shaped subreflector profile is transformed into an analytic function by the global interpolation. To obtain the first and the second derivative terms on the surface, the local interpolation method is used. The reflection point needed for the geometrical optics(GO) is found by using the multi-dimensional function minimizing algorithm. The radiation pattern of a Gregorian type shaped subreflector is presented. The characteristics of the radiation patterns for various feed edge taperings and frequencies are examined.

A compact plasmonic switching scheme, based on the phase change of a thin-film chalcogenide material ($Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$), is proposed and numerically investigated at optical-communication wavelengths. Surface plasmon polariton modal analysis is conducted for various thicknesses of dielectric and phase-change material layers, and the optimized condition is induced by finding the region of interest that shows a high extinction ratio of surface plasmon polariton modes before and after the phase transition. Full electromagnetic simulations show that multiple reflections inside the active region may conditionally increase the overall efficiency of the on/off ratio at a specific length of the active region. However, it is shown that the optimized geometrical condition, which shows generally large on/off ratio for any length of active region, can be distinguished by observing the multiple-reflection characteristic inside the active region. The proposed scheme shows an on/off switching ratio greater than 30 dB for a length of a few micrometers, which can be potentially applied to integrated active plasmonic systems.

The displacement sensor using optical pickup head is presented. The measuring principle of optical pickup head in focusing direction is adopted to measure displacement. The preliminary tests were carried out to verify the feasibility of the optical pickup head as a displacement sensor and optical pickup head showed about $8\;{\mu}m$ measuring range and 10nm resolution. The methodology to expand measuring range is proposed and proved its validity. The proposed displacement sensors are applied to AFM(Atomic Force Microscope) probe head to measure the deflection of micro-cantilever.

본 논문에서는 Head Mounted Display(HMD)용 광학계의 기하학적인 특징과 회절광학소자를 이용한 HMD용 광학계 설계의 개념에 대해 논의하였다. 사용자가 영상을 볼 때 편안함을 갖도록 HMD용 광학계는 경량화, 소형화 및 고해상도를 만족해야 한다. 이러한 요구조건들을 만족시키기 위해 본 논문에서는 회절광학소자와 양면 비구면화를 적용하여 색수차와 단색수차를 보정하였다. 또한 인간의 눈을 모델링하여 일반화한 모형안을 HMD용 광학계의 설계 및 성능평가에 적용하였다.

An off-axis integral floating system using a concave mirror is analyzed to resolve the image distortion incurred by the off-axis optical arrangement. The concave mirror can be adopted as the floating device to improve the optical efficiency. The image distortion due to the tilting axis of the concave mirror needs to be analyzed precisely to generate the pre-distortion image. In this paper, we calculate the image deformation in the off-axis structure of the concave mirror using the geometrical optics. Using the calculation results, the compensated elemental image can be generated for the pre-distortion integrated image, which can be projected to the floating 3D image without image distortion. The basic experiments of the off-axis integral floating are presented to prove and verify the proposal.

Retroreflector is different from other reflecting surfaces as it mades reflection in which radiation is returned in directions close to its incoming direction. Because of this characteristics, retroreflectors find many applications in traffic safety related areas. Retroreflectors are usually made using comer cubes, or partially coated glass beads. These glass beads can be made very small, so that they can be coated on sheets or mixed with paints. The design of glass type retroreflector depends on glass bead's shape and material, and its optical characteristics are related to the refractive index of glass. In this paper, a method of anlyzing glass bead type retroreflector's sptical characteristics with respect to shape and optica property of the glass, is presented. First, the coefficient of retroreflection, which is a measure of retroreflector's optical characteristics, is derived analytically using geometrical optics method. And the result is plotted using numerical methods. The results show good match with those obtained experimentally, which were supplied from a commercial retroreflector manufacturer.
