Optical Line Patternator(OLP) has been applied to get a distribution of the spray at high ambient pressure. OLP is a combined technique of extinction measurement and image processing. The attenuated intensity of laser beam after traversing spray region was measured by using a photo-detector, and the line image of Mie-scattering was captured simultaneously in the path of each laser beam by using a CCD camera. The distribution of extinction coefficient in the spray is obtained by processing these data with the algebraic reconstruction technique. From the distribution of extinction coefficient, the surface distribution of spray can be reconstructed. OLP does not use laser sheet but use laser beam so that the noise effect of multiple scattering, caused by increasing number density of droplet in high pressure environment, is reduced drastically. OLP is expected as a suitable method which can investigate the characteristics of relatively large spray under the high pressure environment such as liquid rocket engine.

Laser induced incandescence (LII) method is frequently used to measure soot volume fraction in flames. In this study, experiments were performed to measure soot volume fraction in coaxial diffusion flame using LII method and calibrated with laser scattering/extinction method. The effects of laser intensity (>$1{\times}10^8W/cm^2$), laser wavelength (532nm, 1064nm) and detection wavelength (400nm, 600nm) on the LII signal were investigated. On the range of $4{\times}10^8{\sim}8{\times}10^8W/cm^2$ there were no effects of laser intensity on LII signal. Except these ranges, LII signal was increased with laser intensity. For the long gate width, the LII signals of the higher laser intensity (>${\vartheta}(GW/cm^2)$) cases had better correlation with soot volume fraction which were measured by laser extinction method compared with lower laser intensity cases. The errors of 2-dimensional cases at the calibration height were approximately 50% regardless of laser wavelength.

The effect of fuel mixing on soot structure with methane, ethane, and propane to ethylene-base counterflow diffusion flames has been investigated by measuring the volume fraction, number density, and particle size of soot by adopting the light extinction/scattering techniques. The experimental result showed that the mixing of ethane and propane in ethylene diffusion flame increased soot volume fraction while the mixing of methane decreased. As compare to the ethylene-base flame, the diameters of soot particles for mixture flames are slightly smaller. While the soot number densities for the mixture flames are much higher. Thus, the increase in the soot volume fraction can be attributed to the appreciably increased soot number density by the fuel mixing.

The optical patterantor provides the high resolution and quantitative information of the spray. Fuel distribution and Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) can be measured from fluorescence and Mie-scat-tering images. To correct the attenuation of the laser beam and signal in dense spray region, the method to find the geometric mean of the signal intensities obtained from two cameras was evaluated and verified in a solid-cone spray. In high pressure environment, the increased number density of the droplets cause multiple scattering. The optical patternation technique using a laser beam instead of a laser sheet was applied to minimize the multiple scattering problem. The pattern of a coaxial spray was changed from hollow-cone to solid-cone shape, and the spray angle was reduced as the ambient pressure increased from 0.1 to 4.0 MPa.

Laser induced incandescence, LII, recently developed technique for measuring soot concentration in flames, can overcome most of limitations of conventional laser extinction measurement. In this study, experiments were performed to investigate the effect of laser intensity, detection wavelength, and also laser beam quality on both LII signal at a particular position and peak-to-centerline LII signal ratio. The results of LII signal with increasing laser intensity shows its near-independence of laser intensity once threshold level of laser intensity has been reached. However, this near-independence depends on laser beam quality and the incident optical setup. The peak-to-centerline LII signal ratio slowly but continuously increases with laser power. This fact is due to the dependence of LII signal on particle mean diameter. LII signal is attenuated during it passes through the flame containing soot particles. The attenuation rate is inversely proportional to detection wavelength. In this study, LII signal at 680 nm band is 10% greater than the signal at 400 nm band.

본 연구에서는 고가의 일반 펄스 레이저 없이 비교적 근거리에서 강한 거리 분해능을 지니며, 원거리에서도 공간 분해능을 지닌 연속광원 레이저를 이용한 미세먼지 라이다를 제안한다. 일반적인 라이다 시스템은 짧은 펄스의 레이저를 사용하고, 특정 거리 사이의 time-of-flight (TOF) 왕복시간을 측정하여 거리 정보를 얻고 있으나, 본 연구에서는 상용 카메라와 연속광 레이저 빔을 조사하여 얻은 영상을 사용하여 공간 분해능을 얻는 새로운 에어로졸 라이다를 소개한다. 본 연구에서는 라이다 신호와 함께 얻은 레이저의 이미지를 사용하여 주어진 하나의 화소에 해당하는 산란 에어로졸까지의 거리와 그 화소에 기여하는 에어로졸의 범위를 계산하였다. 이러한 거리와 기여 범위를 사용하여 거리 분해능을 갖는 에어로졸의 소멸계수를 계산하였으며, 기존 에어로졸 라이더의 경우 400 m 이상에서만 에어로졸 소산계수를 얻을 수 있었지만 제안 된 방법과 주어진 카메라의 조건을 사용하면 수십 미터 이하까지 그 소산계수를 얻을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 다파장 빔결합을 위한 master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) 구조의 선편광 고출력 이터븀 첨가 광섬유 레이저를 개발하였다. 유도 브릴루앙 산란(stimulated Brillouin scattering, SBS)을 억제하기 위하여 pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) 신호로 위상 변조 및 비트길이를 최적화한 선폭 약 10 GHz의 시드 레이저를 구현하였으며, 이를 이용하여 3단 증폭을 하였다. 주 증폭단에서는 모드 불안정성 현상(mode instability, MI)의 문턱값을 높이기 위하여 코어 및 클래딩의 직경이 각각 20 ㎛, 40 ㎛인 편광유지(polarization maintaining, PM) 이터븀 첨가 광섬유를 이용하고 지름이 약 9-12 cm인 나선형 홈에 적용하였다. 그 결과, 입사된 여기광 대비 기울기 효율이 83.7%인 1.004 kW의 레이저 출력을 얻었다. 또한, 빔품질(M²)과 편광소광율(polarization extinction ratio, PER)은 각각 1.12와 21.5 dB로 측정되었다. 더욱이, 역방향 스펙트럼의 레일리 신호와 SBS 신호의 첨두 세기 비율은 2.36 dB로 관측되어, SBS가 완화된 레이저 구현을 확인하였다. 또한 증폭 출력에 따라 기울기 효율 및 빔품질의 저하가 없어 모드불안정이 발생하지 않음을 확인하였다.

In this study, extinction limit extension of unsteady $(CH_{4}+N_{2})$/air diffusion flames was investigated experimentally. A spatially locked flame in an opposing jet burner was perturbed by linear velocity variation, and time-dependent flame luminosity, transient maximum flame temperature and OH radical were measured over time with the high speed camera, Rayleigh scattering method and OH laser-induced fluorescence, respectively. Unsteady flames survive at strain rates that are much higher than the extinction limit of steady flames, and unsteady extinction limits extend as the slope of the strain rate increases or the initial strain rate decreases. We verified the validity of the equivalent strain rate concept by comparing the course of unsteady extinction process and steady extinction process, and it was found that the equivalent strain rate concept represents well the unsteady effect of a convective-diffusive zone. To investigate the reason of the unsteady extinction limit extension, we subtracted the time lag of the convective-diffusive zone by using the equivalent strain concept. Then the modified unsteady extinction limits become smaller than the original unsteady extinction limits, however, the modified unsteady extinction limits are still larger than the steady extinction limits. These results suggest that there exist the unsteady behavior of a diffusive-reactive zone near the extinction limit due to the chemical non-equilibrium states associated with unsteady flames.

The effect the diameter of silver nanorod arrays whose distance between the nanorods was uniform at 65 nm have on Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) has been studied by varying the diameter from 28 to 51 nm. Nanorod length was fixed at approximately 62 nm, which is the optimum length for SERS by excitation with a 632.8 nm laser line. The transverse and longitudinal modes of the surface plasmon of these silver nanorods were near 400 and 630 nm, respectively. The extinction of the longitudinal mode increased with increasing nanorod diameter, while the transverse mode did not change significantly. High-quality SERS spectra of p-aminothiophenol and benzenethiol adsorbed on the tips of the silver nanorods were observed by excitation with a 632.8 nm laser line. The SERS enhancement increased with increasing nanorod diameter. We concluded that the SERS enhancement increases when the diameter of silver nanorods is increased mainly by increasing the excitation efficiency of the longitudinal mode. The enhancement factor for the silver nanorods with a 51 nm diameter was approximately $2{\times}10^7$.
