경피를 통한 약물 전달 방식에 있어, 본 연구에서 제안하고 있는 바늘 없는 주사기 시스템은 레이저와 마이크로젯 인젝터로 구성 되어 있다. 이때 마이크로젯 인젝터의 핵심 메커니즘은 레이저 유도버블이다. 동력원으로 Nd:YAG와 Er:YAG, 두 종류의 레이저가 사용되었다. 버블의 특성을 결정짓는 레이저 변수인 펄스폭, 파장 등이 본 연구에서 고려되었다. Nd:YAG 레이저의 경우에 펄스폭이 버블의 생존 시간보다 짧기 때문에 캐비테이션에 가까운 버블을 형성하는 반면 Er:YAG 레이저의 경우에 펄스폭이 상대적으로 길고 물에서의 흡수가 잘 되기 때문에 보일링 버블이 만들게 된다. 버블 및 마이크로젯의 자세한 움직임은 초고속 카메라를 통해 촬영되었다. 이와 같은 과정을 통하여 마이크로젯의 특성이 버블에 의해 결정되는 것을 본 연구를 통해 관찰되었다. 약물 전달 성능은 기니어피그 조직에 형광물질을 침투한 결과로 부터 분석하였다.

The current study analyzes the effects of the scaling parameters of the batch unscented transformation on precision satellite orbit determination. Satellite laser ranging (SLR) data are used in the orbit determination algorithm, which consists of dynamics model, observation model and filtering algorithm composed of the batch unscented transformation. TOPEX/Poseidon SLR data are used by utilizing the normal point (NP) data observed from ground station. The filtering algorithm includes a repeated series of processes to determine the appropriate scaling parameters for the batch unscented transformation. To determine appropriate scaling parameters, general ranges of the scaling parameters of ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, k, $\lambda$ are established. Depending on the range settings, each parameter was assigned to the filtering algorithm at regular intervals. Appropriate scaling parameters are determined for observation data obtained from several observatories, by analyzing the relationship between tuning properties of the scaling parameters and estimated orbit precision. The orbit determination of satellite using the batch unscented transformation can achieve levels of accuracy within several tens of cm with the appropriate scaling parameters. The analyses in the present study give insights into the roles of scaling parameters in the batch unscented transformation method.

최근 심각한 환경오염과 경제 불황으로 인해 리엔지니어링에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 조선분야에 대한 리엔지니어링은 꾸준히 진행되어 왔으나 국내에서의 선박 수리 및 유지보수 산업의 기술력과 인지도는 조선해양산업에 비해 떨어진다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 기술개발의 일환으로 레이저 클래딩을 주목할 수 있다. 레이저 클래딩은 희석률이 낮고, 기공이 거의 존재하지 않는 우수한 클래드 층을 형성하므로 본 연구는 선박용 배기밸브 페이스에 레이저 클래딩 적용을 위한 기초연구로써 다양한 공정변수에 따른 1패스 클래드 층의 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 출력이 증가할수록 클래드 층의 폭은 넓어지고 높이는 감소하였다. 또한 클래드 층의 경도를 측정했을 때 경도 값이 점차 감소하였으며 EDS 성분 분석을 통해 클래드 층 전체가 희석되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Objective: A prospective, assessor-blinded, randomized controlled trial was conducted in patients with chronic low back pain to evaluate the efficacy of portable low power laser therapy (LPLT) and the effect when combined with exercise therapy on pain and functions. Method: 60 patients were recruited and 56 patients, excluding 4 dropouts, were randomly allocated to the LPLT group (Group 1: 19 patients), placebo laser therapy with exercise group (Group 2: 18 patients), and LPLT with exercise group (Group 3: 19 patients). Laser therapy and exercise was performed five times a week for 4 weeks. Visual analogue scale (VAS), Schober test, lumbar range of motion (ROM) measures (flexion, extension and lateral flexion), Oswestry Disability index (ODI) were measured at baseline, at 4 weeks after intervention, and at 6 weeks after 2 weeks of no intervention. Results: Statistically significant improvements were noted in all group by time interaction with respect to all outcome parameters (p<0.05). All parameters in each group improved not only in the period of treatment (4 weeks), but also in the final evaluation (6 weeks) 2 weeks after the end of treatment. Post-hoc analysis showed statistically significant difference between the LPLT with exercise group and the other groups in all outcome parameters except for the ODI at 4 weeks and at 6 weeks. Conclusion: Portable LPLT is effective treatment in reducing pain and improving lumbar ROM and with exercise is more effective than laser or exercise monotherapy for the chronic low back pain patients.

World demand for natural gas has generated the need for many new land transmission pipelines to be installed in the next decade or so. Although mechanized gas metal arc welding is well developed, there are opportunities for cost savings by using alternative welding processes. Hybrid Nd:YAG laser - gas metal arc welding enables fibre optic delivery of the laser energy to a robotic welding head to be combined with the addition of extra energy and a consumable to produce good quality, deep penetration welds in a single pass. The present paper describes initial procedure development to optimize the laser and gas metal arc welding parameters for making joints in pipeline steel. Satisfactory joint quality was obtained and it is intended to develop the process to prototype field trials.

Experimental studies of laser micromachining on Mo diaphragm using piezo Q-switched Nd:YAZ laser have been performed. Application of miniaturized micorcolumn electron gun arrays as a potential electron beam lithography or portable mini-scanning electron microscope (SEM) application have recently extensively examined. The conventional microcolumn fabrication technique would give a limitation on the minimization of aberration, In this paper, we obtained 20~30 $\mu \textrm m$aperture of laser micromachining on Mo diaphragm using piezo Q-swithed Nd:YAG laser. The geometrical figures, such as the diameter and the preciseness of the drilled aperture are dependent upon the total energy of the laser pulse train, laser pulse width, and the diameter of laser spot in addition to the materials-dependent parameters.

One of perspective direction of microfabrication is direct laser writing technology that allows to create metal, semiconductive and dielectric micropatterns on substrate surface. In this work, a two step method, the combination of seed forming process, in which metallic Al seed was selectively generated on AlN ceramic substrate by direct writing technique using a pulsed Nd : YAG laser and subsequent electroless Ni plating on the activated Al seed, was presented. The effects of laser parameters such as pulse energy, scanning speed and pulse frequency on shape of Alseed and conductor line after electroless Ni plating were investigated. The nature of the laser activated surface is analyzed from XPS data. The line width of this metallic Al and Ni is analyzed using SEM. As a results, Al seed line with 24㎛ width and 100㎛ isolated line space is obtained. Finally, laser direct writing can be applied in the field between thin and thick film technique in electronic industry.

The laser induced forward transfer(LIFT) technique employs a pulsed laser to transfer parts of a thin metal film from an optically transparent target onto an arbitrary substrate in close proximity to the metal film on the target. In this work, a two-step method, the combination of LIFT process, in which a Au film deposited on the $Al_2$O$_3$ substrate by Nd:YAG laser and subsequent Au electroless metal plating on the by LIFT process generated Au seed, was presented. The influence of laser parameters, wavelength, laser power, film thickness and overlap ratio of pulse tracks, on the shapes of deposit and conductor line after electroless plating is experimentally studied. As a results, the threshold power densities for ablation, deposition and metallization were determined and comparison of threshold value between the wave length 1064nm and the second harmonic generated 532nm. In odor to determine a possible application in the electronic industry, a smallest conduct spot size, line width and isolated line space were generated.
