This paper aims to verify the clinical feasibility of a custom-made film created by a laser cutting tool for End-to-End (E2E) quality assurance in robotic intensity modulated radiation therapy system. The custom-made film was fabricated from the Gafchromic EBT3 film with the size of $8^{{\prime}{\prime}}{\times}10^{{\prime}{\prime}}$ using a drawing that is identical to the shape and scale of the original E2E film. The drawing was created by using a computer aided design program with the image file, which is obtained by scanning original E2E film. Beam delivery and evaluations were respectively performed with the original film and the custom-made film using fixed-cone collimator on three tracking modes: 6D skull (6DS), Xsight spine (XS), and Xsight lung (XL). The differences between total targeting errors of the original and custom-made films were recorded as 0.17 mm, 0.3 mm, and 0.17 mm at 6DS, XS, and XL tracking modes, respectively. This indicates that the custom-made film could yield nearly equivalent results to those of the original E2E film, given the uncertainties caused by distortions during film scanning and vibrations associated with film cutting. By confirming the clinical feasibility of a custom-made film for E2E testing, it can be expected that economic efficiency of the testing will increase accordingly.

나노미터 크기의 임의형상 패턴을 새기기 위하여 노광기술이 사용된다. 광노광에서 자외선과 엑스레이 같은 전자기파가 나노미터 크기로 형상을 새긴 마스크 위에 조사되면 회절현상은 필연적으로 발생하며 마스크의 상이 불명확하게 웨이퍼 위에 맺히도록 한다. 볼록렌즈만이 프리어변환기 역할을 한다고 알려져 있으며 마스크 위에 패턴의 크기가 전자기파의 파장에 비교하여 매우 클 때에도 볼록렌즈를 사용하면 프리어변환시키는 것이 가능하다. 본 논문에서 설명하는 방법으로 마스크를 준비하여 렌즈 앞에 놓고 레이저 빔으로 조사하면 프리어 평면이라 알려진 평면 위에서만 나노미터 크기의 패턴이 형성된다. 이 방법은 매우 단순한 장치로 구성되어 있고, 현재 혹은 차세대 노광인 자외선/극자외선 및 전자투사노광으로 제작한 최소선폭과 비교해 볼 때 손색이 없다. 여기서는 프리어광학을 이용하여 이론적인 연구결과를 보이고 있지만 가까운 장래에 실험결과로 이론적인 접근을 증명할 수 있을 것이다.

옆미끄럼이 있는 조건에서 LEX를 갖는 삼각날개의 와류 특성을 유동의 가시화에 의한 실험적 방법으로 연구하였다. 모델은 $65^{\circ}$ 후퇴각의 갖는 평판 날개이다. 자유 유동속도는 6.2 m/s이며, 이 속도와 날개뿌리 시위를 기준으로 한 레이놀즈 수는 $4.4\times10^5$ 이다. 받음각 범위와 옆미끄림각 범위는 각각 $16^{\circ}\sim28^{\circ}$와 $0^{\circ}\sim-15^{\circ}$ 이다. 미세수적과 레이저 평면광에 의한 가시화는 오공 프로브에 의한 측정으로부터 얻을 수 없었던 보다 자세한 와유동 구조를 관찰 할 수 있도록 하였다. 옆미끄럼각이 있는 경우, 바람쪽은 LEX 와류와 날개 와류의 상호작용과 붕괴가 촉진되는 반면, 바람반대쪽은 두 와류의 상호작용과 붕괴가 억제되었다.

The vortical flow of a 65-deg flat plate delta wing with a leading edge extension(LEX) was examined through off-surface visualization, 5-hole probe and hot-film measurements. The off-surface flow visualization technique used micro water droplets generated by a home-style ultrasonic humidifier and a laser beam sheet. The angles of attack ranged from 10 to 30 degrees, and the sideslip angles ranged from 0 to -15 degrees. The Reynolds number was $1.82{\times}10^5$ for the flow visualization, and $1.76{\times}10^6$ for the 5-hole probe and hot-film measurements. The comparison of the visualization photos and the flow field measurement showed that the two results were in a good agreement for the relative position and the structure of the wing and LEX vortices, even though the flow Reynolds numbers of the two results were much different. The wing vortex and the LEX vortex coil each other while maintaining a comparable strength and identity at zero sideslip. Neither a looping of the wing vortex around the strake vortex, nor the lopsided coiling of the stronger strake and the weaker wing vortices was observed. At non-zero sideslip, the downward movement of the LEX vortex when going downstream was enhanced on the windward side, and the downward and inboard movement of the LEX vortex when going downstream was suppressed on the leeward side. The counterclockwise coiling of the wing and LEX vortices was decreased significantly on the leeward side.

This study evaluated a method of sorting X and Y chromosomes based on size using the forward angle light scatter related refractive index (FSC) of a flow cytometer. Hanwoo bulls sperm were separated to X and Y chromosomes by the parameters of FSC or Hoechst 33342 intensity. As a result, using monitor program linked flow cytometry during sorting processing, the purities were $97{\pm}0.57$ or $96{\pm}0.67%$ for the X-fraction and $96{\pm}0.33$ or $97{\pm}1.33%$ for the Y-fraction in the two sperm sorting methods. There were no differences in the X and Y ratios (X and Y %) between the sperm sorting methods based on FSC or DNA content. The proportions of female and male embryos used for in vitro fertilization and development were $66.03{\pm}3.31$ or $69.37{\pm}1.41%$, and $70.56{\pm}2.42$ or $56.11{\pm}3.09%$ when sperm were processed using the sex sorting method by FSC or Hoechst 33342. In conclusion, further study is needed to determine the optimum procedure and improve the nozzle to enhancing sorting accuracy or efficiency. Also, the findings of this study do not negate the possibility that the difference method of sperm sorting cannot use a UV laser beam.

There has been studied flow to minimize the spot size to increase data capacity. Optical data storage devices are being developed near practical limits with wavelength and NA of 405nm and 0.85. There has been studied many types of next generation storage devices such as blu-ray multilayer system, probe based data storage and holographic data storage. Among these data storage devices, solid immersion lens(SIL) based near field recording (NFR) has been widely studied. In this system, SIL is the key component that focuses the laser beam with a very small size which enables ultra high data capacity. Therefore, optical performance evaluation system is required for SIL assembly. In this dissertation, a simple and accurate SIL assembly measurement method is proposed with wedge plate lateral shearing interferometer(LSI). Wedge plate LSI is cheaper than commercialized interferometer, robust to the vibration and the moving distance for phase shifting is large that is order of micrometer. We designed the thickness, wedge angle, material, surface quality and wavelength of wedge plate as 1mm, 0.02degree, fused silica, lamda/10(10-5) and 405nm, respectively. Also, we confirmed simulation and experimental results with quantitative analysis. This simple wedge plate LSI can be applied to different types of SIL such as solid immersion mirror(SIM), hemispherical, super-hemispherical and elliptical SIL.

We report for the first time highly efficient trans-reflective color filters capable of demonstrating coloration in both transmission and reflection modes by taking advantage of a multilayer stack consisting of MgF₂ and TiO₂ used respectively as the low and high index materials. In order to enable such trans-reflective performance, securing an optimal stop band assuming an appropriate bandwidth within the visible regime is pivotal, which was realized by tailoring the thicknesses and the numbers of TiO₂-MgF₂ bi-layers. Three devices were designed through rigorous simulations and developed via e-beam evaporation to demonstrate vivid blue, green, and red colors in the reflection mode, and yellow, magenta, and cyan colors in the transmission mode, featuring an enhanced efficiency exceeding 90% under normal incidence. The color performance of the filters was examined by referring to the chromaticity coordinates of the transmission and reflection spectra, alongside photographed color images. The dependence of the performance on the angle of incidence was explored with respect to incident polarization, indicating that a transmission surpassing 60% could be stably maintained up to an angle of 75°. Polarization independent transfer characteristics were especially achieved for the normal incidence. The proposed devices may be readily extended to other spectral regimes by adjusting the thicknesses of the films.

The thin-film photovoltaic absorbers (CdTe and $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$) can achieve solar conversion efficiencies of up to 20% and are now commercially available, but the presence of toxic (Cd,Se) and expensive elemental components (In, Te) is a real issue as the demand for photovoltaics rapidly increases. To overcome these limitations, there has been substantial interest in developing viable alternative materials, such as $Cu_2ZnSnS_4$ (CZTS) is an emerging solar absorber that is structurally similar to CIGS, but contains only earth abundant, non-toxic elements and has a near optimal direct band gap energy of 1.4 - 1.6 eV and a large absorption coefficient of ~104 $cm^{-1}$. The CZTS absorber layers are grown and investigated by various fabrication methods, such as thermal evaporation, e-beam evaporation with a post sulfurization, sputtering, non-vacuum sol-gel, pulsed laser, spray-pyrolysis method and electrodeposition technique. In the present work, we report an alternative aqueous chemical approach based on chemical bath deposition (CBD) method for large area deposition of CZTS thin films. Samples produced by our method were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, absorbance and photoluminescence. The results show that this inexpensive and relatively benign process produces thin films of CZTS exhibiting uniform composition, kesterite crystal structure, and some factors like triethanolamine, ammonia, temperature which strongly affect on the morphology of CZTS film.

1차원 반도체인 nanowires (NWs)는 전기적, 광학적으로 일반 bulk구조와 다른 특성을 가지고 있어서 현재 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 일반적으로 NWs는 Au 등의 금속 촉매를 이용하여 성장을 하게 되는데 이때 촉매가 오염물로 작용을 해서 결함을 만들어서 bandgap내에 defect level을 형성하게 된다. 본 연구는 Si(111) 기판 위에 Ga-droplet을 촉매로 사용을 하여 molecular beam epitaxy로 성장을 하였다. 성장온도는 600$^{\circ}C$로 고정을 하였고 growth rate은 GaAs(100) substrate에서 2.5 A/s로 Ga의 양을 고정하고 V/III ratio를 1부터 8까지 변화를 시켰다. As의 양에 따라서 생성되는 NWs의 개수가 증가하고 growth rate이 빨라지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Transmission Electron Microscopy 분석 결과 낮은 V/III ratio에서는 zincblende, wurtzite 그리고 stacking faults 가 혼재 되어 있는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결함은 소자를 만드는데 한계가 있기 때문에 pure zincblende나 pure wurtzite를 가져야 하는데 V/III ratio : 8 에서 pure zincblende구조가 되었다. Gibbs-Thomson effect에 따르면 구조적 변화는 Ga droplet과 NWs의 접면에서 크기가 중요한 역할을 한다[1]. 연구 결과 V/III ratio : 8일 때 Ga droplet의 크기가 zincblende성장에 알맞다는 것을 예상할 수 있었다. laser confocal photoluminescence 결과 상온에서 1.43 eV의 bandgap을 가지는 bulk구조와는 다른 와 1.49eV의 bandgap을 가지는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper describes a fiber optic sensor suitable for non-contact detection of ultrasonic waves. This sensor is based on a fiber optic Sagnac interferometer. Quadrature phase bias between two interfering laser beams in Sagnac loop is introduced by a polarization controller. A stable quadrature phase bias can be confirmed by observing the interferometer output versus phase bias. This method eliminates a digital signal processing for detection of ultrasonic waves using Sagnac interferometer. Interference intensity is affected by the frequency of ultrasonic waves and the time delay of Sagnac loop. Collimator is attached to the end of the probing fiber to focus the light beam onto the specimen surface and to collect the reflected light back into the fiber probe. Ultrasonic waves produced by conventional ultrasonic transducers are detected. This fiber optic sensor based on Sagnac interferometer is very effective for detection of small displacement with high frequency such as ultrasonic waves used in conventional non-destructive testing.
