The welding characteristics of Inconel 600 Alloy using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser are experimentally investigated. The major process parameters studied in the present laser welding experiment were the positions of focus, laser power and travel speed of laser bean We measured the fusion zone size and its shape using an optical microscope for the observation of cross-sectional area. We performed two tests regarding the tension and the micro hardness for welding quality estimation. Then we measured residual stress in welds by electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI). In conclusion the optimum butt welding process parameters were 0.5mm focus position, 1.6kW laser power, 1m/min travel speed and 5.5$\ell$/min assist gas discharge.

Various welding methods such as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding(GTAW), magnetic force electrical resistance welding and Laser Beam Welding(LBW) are now available for end cap closure of nuclear fuel rods. Even though the resistance and GTA welding processes are widely used in manufacturing commercial fuel rods, they can not be recommended for the remote seal welding of fuel rods in the hot cell Facility due to the complexity of the electrode alignment, the difficulty in replacing parts in a remote manner and the large heat input for the thin sheath. Therefore, the Nd:YAG laser system using optical fiber transmission was selected for the end cap welding of irradiation fuel rods in the hot cell. The remote laser welding apparatus in the hot cell Facility was developed using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser of 500 watt average power with an optical fiber transmission. The weldment quality such as microstructure and mechanical strength was satisfactory. The optimum conditions of laser welding for encapsulating irradiation fuel rods in the hot cell were obtained.

The stencil is a thin stainless sheet in which a pattern is formed, which is placed on a surface of plate to reproduce the pattern of electric circuit. Conventionally the stencil has been produced by etching process. This process has many anti-environmental factors. In this study, Nd : YAG laser cutting process has been applied for stencil manufacturing. The study is focused on estimating kerf width of laser cut stencil by E.B.P.(Error Back-Propagation). This algorithm is good for estimating target value from input value. In this paper, target value was kerf width, and input values were frequency, pulse width, cutting speed and laser power. E.B.P. after teaming input and target could estimate kerf width from some variables precisely.

As the state of the art in recent years Laser-Arc Hybrid welding is tried actively because of its various economical and technical advantages. In this study, melting tendencies according to the variation of laser-arc distance are investigated in case of YAG laser-TIG Hybrid welding process of AH32 ship structural steel. Nd-YAG laser with a laser beam power of 3KW is used and varied laser-arc distance 0mm to 10mm with fixing the TIG current as l00A. There is certain distance between laser and TIG elecrode to improve welding heat input and also increase the penetration.

In this study, wire was used as the filler material for the laser repair welding, and the phenomenon in which the supplied filler material was melted and beaded down into the specimen was examined with varying laser powers and welding speeds. The optimal processing condition was found to be the laser power of 1,300 W, the welding speed and feed wire supply speed of 0.5 ml/in and the defocused distances of +2mm. At this time, the heat input(E) was $65{\sim}75\;J/mm^2$, and no internal defect occurred. When repair welding was carried out as the optimal processing for the part that had an external defect with the radius of 2mm, the filler metal was melted, resulting in the volume smaller than the defect part and thus causing the part unfilled. Therefore, it was found to be necessary to carry out repair welding two to three times by multiple passes rather than does it only once by single pass.

무한한 Fresnel number를 갖는 imaging unstable ring resonator에 의한 펄스형 Nd:YAG 레이저 출력 광속의 위상파면을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 4개의 평면경과 망원경을 포함하는 Negative Branch Unstable Ring Resonator(NBUR) Nd:YAG 레이저를 제작하였다. NBUR 공진기 내에서 증폭되는 광속이 scraper mirror의 원형 투과창을 통해 투과하는 과정에서 발생하는 회절효과는 광학 공진계에 self imaging 조건을 줌으로서 크게 감소시킬 수 있었다. 이러한 self imaging 광속이 고리형 공진계를 반복적으로 진행함으로서 위상파면의 공간적 가간섭성이 향상 되는 것으로 해석 되었다. 레이저 출력 광속의 공간적 위상파면 정보는 Mach-Zehnder 간섭계에 의하여 얻어지는 간섭무늬를 이용하여 얻었으며 이 간섭무늬를 Fourier 변환 방법으로 분석한 결과, 위상파면 왜곡정도가 0.2.lambda.이하 값임을 측정하였다. 이것을 정상파형 레이저 공진기에서의 출력 광속과 비교한 결과 공간적 가간섭성이 75% 정도 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

Nd:YAG Laser를 이용하여 polyimide film에 탄화(carbonization)를 진행하여 Carbon을 생성하여 저가의 센서를 간단한 제조과정으로 만들었다. 이를 통하여 유연한 저가형 압저항 센서의 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 기존에 많은 연구들이 Polyimide에 $10.6{\mu}m$의 파장을 가지는 $CO_2$ laser를 이용하여 carbonization을 하여 센서를 제작하였다. 본 논문에서는 polyimide film에 $1.064{\mu}m$의 파장을 가지는Nd:YAG laser를 이용하여 carbonization(탄화공정)을 진행하였다. 또한 Nd:YAG laser를 사용하여 polyimide film위에 직접 탄화시키며 carbon을 생성하는 최적의 전력밀도($W/cm^2$)과 속도(scan rate) 조건 조합을 찾아 해상도를 높였다. $CO_2$ laser를 사용하였던 기존의 선행연구에서는 carbon생성의 최소 선폭이 $140{\sim}220{\mu}m$의 길이를 가졌지만, 본 연구에서는 카본의 생성되는 선폭이 $35{\sim}40{\mu}m$으로 축소시켰다. 이번 연구에서 제작된 센서의 초기 면저항은 $100{\sim}300{\Omega}/{\square}$ 이였다. 곡률 반경 21 R 로 인장을 하였을 때 저항이 30% 줄어들었고, 이를 통하여 계산된 게이지 팩터는 56.6이였다. 본 연구는 압저항 센서를 제조하기 위한 단순하고, 매우 유연하고 저렴한 공정을 제공한다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Nd : YAG laser on the tooth hypersensitivity by the observation of the morphological changes of the dentinal surface irradiated with Nd : YAG laser by use of SEM. In 40 mandibular and maxillary molars without any carious lesion or restoration, severe attrition and abrasion, Enamel was removed with fine grit diamond bur and exposed dentinal surfaces were polished with Soflex discs. In control group (10 teeth), exposed dentinal surfaces were acid-etched with 10 % Maleic acid for 15 seconds. In the experimental group 1 (10 teeth), acid-etched dentinal surfaces with 10% Maleic acid were prepared by Nd : YAG laser (6 watts power, 1 psi water, 18 psi air) for 2 minutes. In the experimental group 2 (10 teeth), exposed dentinal surfaces were irradiated with Nd: YAG laser (10 watts power, 3 psi water, 10 psi air) until the painted black stains on the dentinal surfaces were completely removed. In the experimental group 3 (10 teeth). dentinal surfaces were prepared with Nd : YAG laser (6 watts power, 1 psi water, 18 psi air) until the painted black stanins on them were completely removed and then the irradiated dentinal surfaces were acid-etched with 10 % Maleic acid for 15 seconds. The specimens were routinely processed and observed with scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows : 1. In the irradiated dentinal surfaces, the characteristics of the melting and recrystalization on the dentinal surfaces were observed. Compared with the results in the control group, we could observe that in the irradiated dentinal surfaces, the aperture of the dentinal tubules were reduced and there were more debris obstructing the dentinal tubules. 2. In the irradiated dentinal surfaces, crater structures were commonly present and in the crater bottoms, there were a lot of bead like melted dentin structures, which had the ruptured opening in the center of them. 3. The melted dentins and cracks in the smear layer were less frequently observed in the irradiated dentinal surfaces using copious cooling water than in the irradiated dentinal surfaces using scare cooling water.

에폭시수지는 우수한 내구성과 접착력, 적당한 강도 등을 가지고 있어 다양한 재질에 다용도로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 에폭시수지가 경화되면 제거가 어려우며 특히 유물에 적용된 후에는 재처리시 제거하는데 어려움이 많다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 유물에 손상 없이 에폭시수지를 제거하는데 Nd:YAG 레이저클리닝을 적용하여 보았다. 실험은 안료를 섞지 않은 에폭시수지와 안료를 섞은 에폭시수지를 부식시키지 않은 철편과 부식시킨 철편에 도포한 시편을 대상으로 하였으며 레이저 에너지와 조사 횟수를 증가시키면서 수지 표면의 반응을 알아보았다. 실험 결과 안료를 섞지 않은 에폭시수지는 부식된 철편에 도포되었을 때 높은 레이저에너지에서 제거되었다. 그러나 부식시키지 않은 철편에 도포한 경우와 안료를 섞은 에폭시수지는 제거되지 않고 색상만 변하였으며 레이저빔의 고온으로 인해 수지가 녹아 부풀어 오르는 현상이 나타났다. FT-IR 분석 결과 레이저 조사 후 변화된 에폭시수지는 성분 변화가 없었으며 레이저빔에 의해 제거된 면에서는 수지가 검출되지 않았다. 그러나 SEM-EDS 분석 결과 제거된 표면에서 소량의 에폭시수지 잔유물이 남아 있었으며 소지금속의 용융현상도 관찰되었다. 그러므로 본 연구를 통하여 Nd:YAG 레이저클리닝의 에폭시수지 제거 가능성과 한계성을 확인할 수 있었다.
