One-dimensional (1D) silver nanostructures, which possess the highest conductivity among all room-temperature materials, moderate flexibility and high transmittance, are one of the most promising candidate materials to replace conventional indium tin oxide transparent electrodes. However, the short length and large diameter of 1D silver nanostructures cause a substantial decrease in the optical transparency or an increase in the sheet resistance. In this work, ultra-long silver nanofiber networks were synthesized with a low-cost and scalable electrospinning process, and the diameter of the nanofibers were finetuned to achieve a higher aspect ratio. The decrease in the diameter of the nanofibers resulted in a higher optical transparency at a lower sheet resistance: 87 % at $300{\Omega}/sq$, respectively. It is expected that an electrospun silver nanofiber based transparent electrode can be used as a key component in various optoelectronic applications.

We describe a common optical system that merges a LADAR system, which generates a point cloud, and a more traditional imaging system operating in the LWIR, which generates image data. The optimum diameter of the entrance pupil was determined by analysis of detection ranges of the LADAR sensor, and the result was applied to design a common optical system using LADAR sensors and LWIR sensors; the performance of these sensors was then evaluated. The minimum detectable signal of the $128{\times}128-pixel$ LADAR detector was calculated as 20.5 nW. The detection range of the LADAR optical system was calculated to be 1,000 m, and according to the results, the optimum diameter of the entrance pupil was determined to be 15.7 cm. The modulation transfer function (MTF) in relation to the diffraction limit of the designed common optical system was analyzed and, according to the results, the MTF of the LADAR optical system was 98.8% at the spatial frequency of 5 cycles per millimeter, while that of the LWIR optical system was 92.4% at the spatial frequency of 29 cycles per millimeter. The detection, recognition, and identification distances of the LWIR optical system were determined to be 5.12, 2.82, and 1.96 km, respectively.

A method for evaluating bulk sensitive structural characteristics of unpurified, as-purified, and acid treated single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was described in the present study. The optical spectra of SWNT solutions were well resolved after prolonged sonication and they were correlated to the diameter and the distribution of nanotubes. The acid-treated SWNTs were similar to as-purified SWNTs in terms of catalyst residue, radial breathing mode (RBM) in the Raman spectra, and the first band gap energy of semiconducting tubes in the optical spectra. The solution phase optical spectra were more sensitive to changes in the small diameter and metallic tubes after the acid treatment than were the RBM spectra.

원통형 물체의 지름을 측정하는 방법에는 여러 가지가 있지만 본 연구에서는 두 가지 비접촉식 방법인 기하광학적 방법과 간섭${\cdot}$회절 방법으로 원통형 물체의 지름을 측정하였다. 기하광학적인 방법은 원통형 렌즈를 이용하여 기울인 레이저 광선을 원통형 물체의 옆면에 비추어 나타나는 곡선을 CCD 카메라로 포착하고 이 곡선을 기하학적인 방법으로 계산하는 것이며 간섭${\cdot} $회절에 의한 방법은 스크린에 나타난 물체에 의한 레이저광의 간섭${\cdot}$회절무늬를 측정하고 분석하는 방법이다. 버니어 캘리퍼스로 측정한 평균 지름이 $0.05\;mm\;\~\;100.50\;mm$ 인 원통형 물체를 기하광학적 방법과 간섭${\cdot}$회절 방법으로 측정한 결과 각각의 상대오차가 $2\%$ 와 $1\%$범위 이내였고 다량의 물체 지름을 신속히 측정하는데 응용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In the international BISDN used satellite, the laser that has large BW has to be used as a carrier for transmitting a lot of visual, vocal, and data information. Interoptical satellite communication has now developed in theoretical and practical aspects. But the optical communication, between satellite and earth station, is hindered by atmospheric absorption, scattering, and turbulence. In this paper, it was supposed that 1Gbps information was transmitted by binary FSK and 50mW AlGaAs semiconductor laser was used as a optical source in the satellite communication link between geosynchronous orbit satellite and earth station. We analyzed the BER and the entire diameter of the noncoherently combined optical heterodyne receiver as el evation angle, and determined the number of the optical heterodyne rece ivers, which is necessary for the BER of the receiver to be less than 10$^{-9}$ by computer simulation under the clear weather condition. It is shown that the BER and the number of the optical heterodyne receivers decrease as the elevation angle increases. In the region used the same number of the optical heterodyne receivers, it is shown that the entire diameter of the receiver increases but the BER decreases as the elevation angle increases.

Common methods of determining the spatial resolution of fiber-optic image guides are by measuring the diameter of individual microfibers or by the use of a resolution test target. However these methods cannot provide enough information of spatial resolution in ultrathin fiber-optic image guides. In this study, a simple method to measure the modulation transfer function (MTF) of an mage guide was developed. The MTFs of ultrathin image guides with 3 and 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ Um diameter were measured by examining transmitted sharp edge image. This method should be especially useful for measuring spatial resolution of ultrahigh resolution image guides with less than 5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ diameter microfibers because their spatial resolution cannot be determined by individual microfiber diameter due to crosstalk and leaky ray phenomena.

SELFOC 소재를 사용하여 높은 수치구경을 가지는 광픽업용 대물렌즈를 설계하였다. SELFOC 소재는 radial gradient-index 분포를 가지며, 이것은 설계에 추가적인 자유도를 제공하므로, 비구면이 아닌 구면만으로 높은 수치구경의 대물렌즈의 설계가 가능하다. 이 연구에서는 quadratic constant와 광축의 굴절률, 광축 두께, 입사동 직경을 변화시키며 rms 스폿 직경 변화를 조사하였으며, Code V를 사용하여 대물렌즈의 최적화와 결상특성을 평가하였다. 이 분석에서는 quadratic constant와 광축의 굴절률이 클수록, 렌즈가 두꺼워질수록, 입사동 직경은 작을수록 더 좋은 특성을 보임을 알 수 있었다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 2매의 구면 SELFOC 렌즈로 구성된 높은 NA의 DVR용 대물렌즈를 설계하였으며, 2가지 형태의 해 Solution I, II가 존재하였다 Solution I은 두 매 모두 양의 굴절능을 가지며 compact한 광학계를 구성하지만, 비축 수차 보정이 Solution II에 비해 부족하였다. Solution II는 음-양의 굴절능으로 조합된 광학계로 비축 수차가 비교적 잘 보정되었지만, 광학계의 전장길이가 길고 렌즈의 직경이 커지는 문제점이 있었다.
