GaAs/AIGaAs resonant tunneling structures have been grown by atmospheric pressure MOCVD. Resonant tunneling diodes fabricated with the structure grown at 650t showed a high peak-to-valley (P/V) current ratio of 2.35 at room temperature. P/V current ratio increased to 15.3 at 77K. Numerically calculated peak current agrees well with the experimental result. Resonant tunneling diodes with AIGaAs as a barrier and InGaAs as a quantum well and a spacer layer yielded a high P/V current ratio of 4.0 and a peak current density of 8.6KA/c# at room temperature because of increased carrier supply.

In resonant tunneling diodes with the quantum well structure showing the negative differential resistance (NDR), it is essential to increase both the peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) and the peak current desnity ( $J_{p}$) for the accurate digital switching operation and the high output of the device. In this work, a resonant interband tunneling diode (RITD) with single quantum well structure, which is composed of I $n_{0.47}$As/I $n_{0.52}$A $l_{0.48}$As heterojunction on the InP substrate, is fabricated ot improve PVCR and JP, and then the dependence of I-V charcteristics on the width of the quantum well was investigated.d.ted.d.

In resonant tunneling diodes with the quantum well structure showing the negative differential resistance (NDR), it is essential to increase both the peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) and the peak current density ($J_p$) for the accurate switching operation and the high output of the device. In this work, a resonant interband tunneling diode (RITD) with single quantum well structure, which is composed of $In_{0.53}Ga_{0.47}As/ln_{0.52}Al_{0.48}As$ heterojunction on the InP substrate, is suggested to improve the PVCR and $J_p$ through the narrowed tunnel barriers. As the result, the measured I-V curves showed the PVCR over 60.

Through using aspheric lens can result in advantages such as an improved optical transfer function, a reduced distortion path or the realization of special image field curvatures. Using the diamond turning method for generating aspherics, the company claim to be able to generate surfaces with a form error of less than $0.33\;{\mu}\;m$ and a surface roughness of less than $0.025\;{\mu}\;m$. In this paper, we are manufacturing thermal image aspheric lens. Thermal image system is electro-optical imaging device which can make visible the difference of infrared energy naturally emitted by objected. In the result of aspherical surface, the form accuracy of about $0.24\;{\mu}\;m$ P-V was obtained and the surface roughness Ra $0.004\;{\mu}\;m$. Also, a brief review of Ultra-precision system Korea photonics technology institute(KOPTI) is present in this paper.

The injection molding of the plastic optics is basically same as the conventional molding except it requires very intricate control of all the molding processing parameters. In the plastic optics, the problem of injection molding is the shrinkage. The shrinkage must be removed and predicted. This shrinkage is becoming more important than any other problems in precision molding because it can affect the focal length of a lens or the total performance of the optical system. This study focused on avoiding the shrinkage that the mold design allows for the optics. In making mold, the surface accuracy(P-V) of the lower and lower mold are $0.201{\mu}m\;and\;0.434{\mu}m$ respectively. A surface roughness(Ra) is below $0.02{\mu}m$ due to selecting the appropriate tools and using the injection molding machine in high degree. In injection molding of the plastic lens, mold temperature, resine temperature and injecting pressure are important process parameters. Injection molding process is carried out according to varying mold temperature and injecting pressure. As a result P-V(peak to valley) of spheric lens is $3.478{\mu}m$ and that of aspheric lens is $1.786{\mu}m$.

The grinding for hard-to-machine materials, such as ceramics, super alloys etc., has proven to be a very difficult and consuming process utilizing ordinary methods. In order to conduct high efficiency machining of such materials, grinding processes using metallic bond diamond wheels and applying electrolytic in-process dressing(ELID) have been attempted on a surface grinding machine. In this study, the effects of grinding parameters, and grit sizes have been evaluated in view of surface roughness, grinding force as well as step difference in simultaneous grinding of different materials. The study and experimental results are presented in this paper.

The pitch tool provides superior surface roughness compared to other types of polishing tool. However, because of difficulty in handling the pitch tool, pitch tool polishing has rarely been analysed, which led many craftsman to eliminate the pitch tool from their experiences. We found that it was possible to use a pitch tool in the well-determined material removal after the completion of computer simulation and experiment. We could simulate the TIF of the pitch tool with 79% accuracy. Also, after five successive simulations of polishing process on a 280 mm optical flat, the surface p-v error was found to be reduced from $1{\mu}m$ to 168 nm.

This study was performed to investigate the surface roughness of the Cerec Vita Mark II polished by various polishing techniques, compare with that of the Vintage enamel porcelain glazed by high temperature glazing technique. All of the Cerec specimen were finished with sequential use of high speed diamond burs(grit 45, 30 and $15{\mu}m$). The groups were divided into 5 groups : Group I : Cerec Vita Mark II block specimens polished with Sof-lex discs. Group II : Cerce Vita Mark II block specimens polished with Two Striper MPS. Group III : Cerce Vita Mark II block specimens polished with Enhance. Group IV : Cerce Vita Mark II block specimens polished with Porcelain laminate polishing FG kit. Group V : Vintage enamel porcelain glazed by high temperature glazing Technique. Each group was consisted of 10 specimens. The surfaces produced were examined quantitatively using a laser specular reflectance machine(Perthen RM600-s, Feinpruf Perthen GmbH., Germany) and qualitatively under SEM(JSM-5400, JEOL, Japan). The Results were as follows : 1. The arithmetic mean roughness value(Ra) in groups 1, 2, 3 and 4 was higher than that of group5. There was statistically significant difference(P<0.05). 2. The arithmetic mean roughness value(Ra) decreased in the following orders : group 1, group 2, group 4, group 3 and there was no statistically significant difference between group 1 and group 2, group 3, and group 4. There was statistically significant difference among group 1, 2, and group 3, 4 and group 5(P<0.05). 3. The maximum individual peak-to-valley-height(Rmax) decreased in the following orders : group 2, group 1, group 4, group 3, group 5 and there was no statistically significant difference between group 1 and 2, group 1 and group 4, group 3 and group 5. There was statistically significant difference among group 1, 2, and group 1, 4 and group 3, 5(P<0.05). 4. The treated surfaces of group 5 had smoother surface than that of groups 1, 2, 3, 4 with SEM.

A study on optimum design of the lightweight mirror of a satellite camera is presented. An optical surface deformation of the lightweight mirror, which is a principal component of the camera system, is an important factor affecting the optical performance of the whole camera system. In this study, optimum design of the lightweight mirror is presented. Total weight of the mirror to reduce the optical surface deformation and the launching cost is used as an objective function. Peak-to-valley value and natural frequency of the mirror are given as constraints to the optimization problem. The sensitivities of the objective function and constraint are calculated by a finite difference method. The optimization procedure is carried out by the commercial optimizer, DOT. As a verification of the optimum design of the mirror, two design examples are treated. In the real application example, the lightweight mirror with 600mm effective diameter is treated. The optimized results with various design variables, which are obtained by considering thickness limitations, are analyzed.
