Resonant multi photon ionization (RMPD of Hg atoms is studied by focusing a high-power laser into the ionization cell. The intermediate resonant state is taken as $6d^1D_2$ with the 4-photon resonance wavelength of 560.7 nm. The ionization signal is measured as Hg vapor pressure (0.1-3.0 Torr), laser intensity $(10-120GW/\textrm{cm}^2)$, and laser wavelength (559-569 nm) vary. AC Stark shift and line broadening of the resonant state $(6d^1D_2)$ are observed and the shift factor is measured to be $-0.6(cm^{-1}/GW/\textrm{cm}^2$. It is also observed that the ionization signal increases as the Hg vapor pressure increases up to a certain value of pressure, however, if the pressure further increases, the signal decreases. The order of non-linearity, which discribes the laser intensity dependence of ionization rate, is measured to be 3 at the resonance, and compared with the theoretical results.esults.

We demonstrated a wide-fan-angle flat-top irradiance pattern with a very narrow linewidth by using an aspheric lens and a long-pitch reflective diffraction grating. First, we numerically designed a diffraction-based linear beam homogenizer. The structure of the Al diffraction grating with an isosceles triangular shape was optimized with 0.1-mm pitch, 35.5° slope angle, and 0.02-mm radius of the rounding top. According to the numerical results, the linear uniformity of the irradiance was more sensitive to the working distance than to the shape of the Al grating. The designed Al grating reflector was fabricated by using a conventional mold injection and an Al coating process. A uniform linear irradiance of 405-nm laser diode with a 100-mm flat-top length and 0.176-mm linewidth was experimentally demonstrated at 140-mm working distance. We believe that our proposed linear beam homogenizer can be used in various potential applications at a precise inspection system such as three-dimensional morphology scanner with line lasers.

In this study, the feasibility of laser patterning on the surface of food packaging polymer film was confirmed, and the surface patterning process conditions of femtosecond laser were established. In addition, it was proved that the surface properties of the film can be changed and controlled through the fabrication of various patterned films on the surface of food packaging films such as HDPE, PP, and PET. Various patterned surfaces, including large-scale circular patterns induced by a single femtosecond laser pulse, roughness patterns achieved by overlapping single pulses by 30%, straight line patterns, roughness patterns obtained by overlapping straight line patterns, and grid patterns formed by intersecting straight line patterns were fabricated. The characteristics of the patterned HDPE, PP, and PET films, based on the surface pattern structure and size, were analyzed using SEM, AFM, and contact angle measurements. Compared to the surface of each control film without femtosecond laser patterning, the contact angles of the surfaces of large-area circular patterning HDPE and PP films, large-area roughness patterning HDPE and PP films by overlapping 30% of single pulses, and large-area roughness patterning PET film by overlapping rectilinear patterning were in the range of 27.1-37.5 degree. This indicated that the HDPE, PP, and PET films became more hydrophilic after patterning. On the other hand, the HDPE film patterned with a large-scale grid pattern exhibited a contact angle of 120.4 degree, indicating that the HDPE film became more hydrophobic after patterning. Therefore, films that have been changed to hydrophilic surfaces through patterning can be used in anti-fouling applications where proteins, cells, viruses, and other food materials do not adhere or are easily detached. In addition, if a superhydrophobic surface of 150 degrees or more is fabricated through more precise lattice patterning in the future, it will be possible to use it for superhydrophobic surface applications such as self-cleaning.

This work forcus on the development of gas sensor that measure the concentrations of exhaust gas using diode laser. Each diode laser for exhaust gas measurement is set to work at near-IR using both DA and WMS methods. Also use of fiber-coupled optical elements makes such a sensor rugged and easy to align. On-line data acquisition and processing can be performed with a PC running LabVIEW software, and absorption signals are measured simultaneously by multiplexing method. Finally, It were experimentally compared WMS (Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy) with DA (Direct Absorption) for the accuracy.

The constant .DELTA.K fatigue tests are performed in SS41 and its weldments to investigate crack opening behavior and fatigue crack propagation behavior at each parts of weldment and its boundary layer. The weldments were annealed after welding for the purpose of relieving residual stress. Every weldments has notch at weld metal zone, and fatigue crack propagates from weld metal zone to vase metal zone perpendicular to weld line. The Laser ISDG method is used in order to determine the crack opening ratio, this method is more precise than indirect measurement method, and faster and easier than other direct measurement method.

The doctor blade is a core part of a laser printer and directly influences the printing quality. The main specifications for doctor blades ate for them to be precise and durable. It is necessary to study an automatic production system for doctor blades in order to obtain high-efficient manufacturing processes. In this paper, the technology and the design of the automatic production line has for manufacturing doctor blades has been researched. The automated manufacturing process consists of five steps, which are the supplying of raw material, shearing, bending, bracket supplying, and the laser-spot welding process. The proposed automatic manufacturing system allowed for faster and more reliable production of doctor blades.

The measuring unit consists of the laser diode, imaging system, line sensor, scanning mirror, and one-board microcomputer. The speckle signal is analyzed and sent to a PC, where the blood flow in a tissue area of $14mm{\times}26 mm$ is evaluated and displayed in a 2-D color map. It is demonstrated that the new LSFG instrument is useful to evaluate the degree of allergic reaction in patch test.

Airborn Lidar technology has been applied to diverse applications with the advantages of accurate 3D information. Further, Lidar intensity, backscattered signal power, can provid us additional information regarding target's characteristics. Lidar intensity varies by the target reflectance, moisture condition, range, and viewing geometry. This study purposes to generate normalized airborne LiDAR intensity image considering those influential factors such as reflectance, range and geometric/topographic factors (scan angle, ground height, aspect, slope, local incidence angle: LIA). Laser points from one flight line were extracted to simplify the geometric conditions. Laser intensities of sample plots, selected by using a set of reference data and ground survey, werethen statistically analyzed with independent variables. Target reflectance, range between sensor and target, and surface slope were main factors to influence the laser intensity. Intensity of laser points was initially normalized by removing range effect only. However, microsite topographic factor, such as slope angle, was not normalized due to difficulty of automatic calculation.

We fabricated a polymer sub-microstructure for optical device application by two-photon-induced laser lithography technique. Polymer pattern could be minimized as small as ${\sim}100\;nm$. The photopolymerization resin contains laser-dye, thus promising a high level of the optical gain. We utilized the lithography technique to the photonic crystal application, where the template of the two-dimensional photonic crystal was modified by polymer gain medium as defect-shape and line-shape orientations. Photonic band gap effect from polymer-doped photonic crystals is expected to exploit the application such as organic solid-state laser device.
