This paper reports on the development of a scanning probe microscopy(SPM) tip with caborn nanotubes. We used an electric field which causes dielectrophoresis(DEP), to align and deposit CNTs on a metal-coated SPM tip. Using the CNT attached SPM tip, we have obtained an enhanced resolution and wear property compared to that from the bare silicon tip through the scanning of the surface of the bio materials. The carbon nanotube tip align toward the source of the ion beam allowing their orientation to be changed at precise angles. By this technique, metal coated carbon nanotube tips that are several micrometer in length are prepared for scanning probe microscopy.

This paper describes a formation of the Mo-silicide on Mo tip to compare the emission characteristics of the Mo tip. Cone-shaped Mo tip arrays were fabricated and silicidized by evaporating a 15nm-thick a-Si film on Mo tip arrays and annealing it in inert ambient at the temperature of $1000\;^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec. The $Mo_5Si_3$ phase of Mo-silicide was observed through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Although the gate voltage of the Mo-silicide tip increased by 38 V to obtain the current level of 20 nA/tip, the dependence of emission current on vacuum level was improved.

Because of the various length condition of carbon nanotube, it is very confined the application area of the single CNT tip. In this paper, it was proposed the cutting technique of single CNT tip and the relationship between the etched volume and the amount of the applied charge. It is possible to control the length of single CNT tip arbitrary using this technique. The etched volume and length in the single CNT tip can be predicted with the amount of the applied charge. It is very easy to make a single CNT tip with proper length using this technique and to make nanotweezer that was composed two single CNT tips.

We are developing Adaptive Optics (AO) system for 24 inch telescope at Seoul National University Observatory. It consists of the tip-tilt correction system and the residual wavefront error correction system with a deformable mirror and a wavefront sensor. We present the construction and performance measurements of the tip-tilt correction system. The tip-tilt component is the single largest contributor to wavefront error, especially for small telescope. The tip-tilt correction system consists of a quadrant photodiode, a tip-tilt mirror and a feed back loop. The collimated He-Ne laser beam is used for input light source and is artificially disturbed by air turbulence generated by a heat gun. Most of the turbulence is of low frequency less than 20 Hz, but extends to a few hundreds Hz. It is found that the closed loop system using proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control successfully corrects tip-tilt error at a rate as high as 300~400 Hz.

Three-dimensional vortical flow and separated flow topology near the casing wall in an axial flow fan having two different tip clearances have been investigated by a Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes (RANS) flow simulation. The simulation shows that the tip leakage vortex formed close to the leading edge of the blade tip on suction side grows in the streamwise direction. On the casing wall, a separation line is formed upstream of the leakage vortex center due to the interference between the leakage vortex and main flow. The reverse flow is observed between the separation line and the attachment line generated downstream of the trailing edge, and increased with enlarging tip clearance. The patterns of a leakage velocity vector including a leakage flow rate are also analyzed according to two tip clearances. It is noted that the understanding of the distribution of a limiting streamline on the casing wall is very important to grasp the characteristics of the vortical flow in the axial flow fan.

본 연구에서는 Main Rotor Blade Tip 형상 변화에 따른 후류해석을 통해 와류 생성 및 주변 유동을 분석하여 블레이드 팁 형상의 변화가 와류 간섭을 감소시키는지의 여부를 확인하였다. EDISON CFD를 이용하여 블레이드 Blade Tip 형상에 따라 유동이 어떻게 나타나며, Blade 후류의 압력과 점성의 변화를 분석하여 와류의 양상을 해석하였다. 비교 Blade 형상은 2세대 긴 직사각형 모형, KUH 수리온의 Blade, 유로콥터사의 'Blue Edge'로 비교적 최근에 개발된 대표적인 Blade Tip 형상 3개로 정하였다. 결과를 토대로 블레이드 뒷전의 와류흐름 양상을 확인하여 블레이드 와류 간섭현상의 감소를 확인하였다.

In this study, we investigate the effects of slots installed on the tip of a rotor blade on aerodynamic characteristics. The slots weaken the strength and spatial coherence of the tip vortex at early vortex age and accelerate the dissipation of the generated tip vortex. Accordingly, the turbulence intensity of the rotor wake is reduced at both near and far wake, which leads to a reduction in broadband noise. Tonal noise is also reduced by mitigation of tip vortices, but tonal noise reduction is limited to a narrower range of azimuths than broadband noise due to the extinction of tip vortices. In addition, slots reduce both mean thrust and thrust fluctuations. Reduction in thrust fluctuations leads to a reduction in blade loading noise, resulting in a reduction in tonal noise.

The ionization of a helium atom was investigated as a function of gas pressure, with the use of a tungsten tip. The tungsten tip, to which the external voltage was applied, was used to generate a constant electron current. The ionization current of helium gas was measured as a function of gas pressure. Effective ionization occurred in the pressure range of 0.5-20 torr when the distance between the field emission tip and the collector was 1 cm. The ionization current was linearly proportional to the voltage that was applied to the tungsten tip.

This paper presents an end-point of 1-link flexible robot arm with a tip-mass by using self-turning fuzzy algorithm. The arm is mounted on a translational mechanism driven by a ballscrew, whose rotation is controlled by CD servomotor. Tip position is controlled so that it follows a desired position. A feedback signal is composed of both the tip-displacement error and change in error. This paper gives the experimental tip responses according to the variations of tip-mass and beam-length, and also showes the effects of reducing the residual vibrations occuring at the end-point.

For Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy measurements, the fiber tip is glued on the side of one of the tuning fork prongs vertically to its extended direction. Higher Q-factor is attainable in this geometry than in the arrangement with the fiber tip parallel to the prong. A simple mechanical design is applied to hold the fiber tip above the gluing point. The overall tuning fork-fiber tip assembly gives another advantage of the flexible Q-factor enhancement. With this treatment, Q-factor higher than 3000 is easily achievable. As an operating instance, a grating is scanned for its one dimensional topographical image.
