This paper described the development example of optical CT(Current Transformer) and optical PT (Potential Transformer) which is measurement system of current and voltage of electric power line using Electro-Optic effect and Magneto-Optic effect. We designed the optical CT of 22KV class and 154KV class and an optical PT of 22KV class. And now the filed testing is in progress in a KEPCO's substation.

Intrinsic Fabry-Perot Optical fiber sensors were embedded to tensile side of the 20cm$\times$20cm$\times$150cm cement concrete structures. The sensors were attached to the reinforcing steels and then, the cement concretes were applied. It took 30 days for curing the specimens. After that, the specimens were tested with 4-point bending method by universal testing machine. Strains were measured and recorded by the strain gauges embedded near optical fiber sensors. Output data of fiber sensor showed good linearity to the strain data from the strain gauges up 2000microstrain. The optical fiber sensors showed good response after yielding of structure while embedded metal film strain gauges did not show any response. We also specimens were broken down. In conclusion, the optical fiber sensors can be used as elements of health monitoring systems for cement concrete infra-structures.

We report the development of full-field swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) in the wavelength range of 815-870 nm using a unique combination of super-luminescent diode (SLD) as broad-band light source and acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) as a frequency-scanning device. Some new applications of full-field SS-OCT in forensic sciences and engineering materials have been demonstrated. Results of simultaneous topography and tomography of latent fingerprints, silicon microelectronic circuits and composite materials are presented. The main advantages of the present system are completely non-mechanical scanning, wide-field, compact and low-cost.

The probes of fiber optic OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometry) sensor was developed to measure displacements of social infrastructures. This probe was simply constructed with two conventional optical fiber connectors, and a fiber bending part, which transforms displacement to optical loss. When the displacement was affected on the bending loss part, the reflected light intensity of one optical connector was changed. The displacement was determined from this reflected light intensity change of the connector. fiber optic OTDR displacement sensor was developed as the multiplexed type of one fiber line with 5 sensor probes. Multiplexing operation was tested by these 5 sensor probes.

Interfaces, both grain boundaries and phase boundaries, play a very important role in the mechanical behavior of structural materials. The problemis particularly intense in composite materials where interfaces play a primary role in the meehanical response of the composites. This paper will concentrate on the approaches to perform nondestructive evaluation of the interfaces in a man nor in which some measure of the mechanical behavior of the interface can be established. Some of the possible approaches that may have potential for the nondestructive evaluation of interfaces are optical, electronic/ electrical, and acoustic approaches.

위상잠금 열화상에서는 일반적으로 변조된 주파수의 광램프를 쓰고 있다. 하지만 램프의 광도 분포는 입력신호가 평단(flat)특성임에 불구하고 심지어 불균일하여 검사 시편내에 측면 열유동을 만들어낸다. 이러한 열유동은 원치 않는 효과로서 측면의 분해능을 감소시키는 등과 같이 관심 결함구조의 영상에 부정적인 영향을 미친다. 본 고에서 검토되는 방식은 열원으로서 LCD 프로젝터와 같은 것을 이용하여 각 가진픽셀에 개별적으로 진동진폭, 광도 오프셋, 위상지연 등을 할당하는 방법에 대한 접근기술이다. 이러한 반복적인 자체학습 과정에 의한 조명 패턴을 통하여 측면 열유동이 제거되고 분해능이 향상되도록 제공하는 것이다.

Design of a degradation test without replacement is considered based on tightened critical value to reduce the evaluation testing time. The sample size, number of inspections, and the critical values are determined to assure the same probability of acceptance when the testing time is reduced to some degree. Photo-diode balance of an optical pickup is analyzed as a case study.

In recent years, gradually increasing interest has been directed to the use of terahertz technology in nondestructive testing and non-invasive measurements, and terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) has become a key technology in such applications. This paper deals with the terahertz pulse generation from cadmium telluride via optical rectification process of femto-second infrared laser pulses. The measured terahertz spectrum is compared with the result of model calculation based on space-time domain nonlinear Maxwell equations for coherent frequency mixing process. The propagation process of terahertz and infra-red pulses in the material as well as the surface interference and free space diffraction effects are also considered. The experimental results are in good agreements with the calculated spectrum.

We investigated the microstructure, electrical and optical characteristics of ZnO, AZO and ITO films using aerosol deposition process. As gas consumption increased, the electrical and optical characteristics of ZnO, AZO and ITO films were improved, and electrical and optical characteristics of ZnO, AZO and ITO films with a thickness of 400 nm were successfully fabricated on PET substrates at room temperature. The mechanical flexibility durability test shows that the ZnO films can withstand 5,000 cycles and AZO and ITO films occurs to crack in films with degradation of resistance and transmittance. Even though the AZO and ITO films shows slightly lower durability than the ZnO films, this is expected to improve performance of films through optimized processing condition and particle size control.

Recently a new signal processing algorithm for white light interferometry was presented. In this paper, the proposed signal processing algorithm was applied for absolute temperature measurement using white light interferometry. Stability testing and absolute temperature measurement were demonstrated. Stability test demonstrated the feasibility of absolute temperature measurement with an accuracy of 0.015 fringe. The test also showed that the absolute temperature measurement system using white light interferometry is capable of obtaining the theoretical minimum detectable change (0.0005 fringe), which is consistent with the performance predicted by the proposed signal processing algorithm.
