The variations of output energy due to tilt output coupler for different types of pulsed Nd:YAG laser resonators were compared by measuring FWHM (full width at half maximum) which means the width of angle displacement where maximum output energy decreases to half value. We proposed a new configuration of pulsed solid-state laser resonator which had high FWHM for tilting of output coupler and which was little sensitive for tilting of rear optics. We proved that our laser resonator had high alignment stability using ABeD ray matrix method because the ray matrix of such a resonator corresponded to unit matrix. atrix.

If the thickness of Pd deposited is larger than 9$\AA$, its phase is $Pd_3Si$. This phase is followed by pure Pd phase with further deposition of Pd. Also, when the thickness of Pd deposited on top of Si(111) is larger than 1$\AA$, the phase of Pd-silicide formed is found to be Pd2Si. The full width at half maximum of Pd 3d core-levels increases with decreasing of Pd film thickness at low coverages ($\leq0.5\AA$). This is due to the formation of additional phase of Pd silicide, i.e. PdSi, in addition to $Pd_2Si$.

In the paper we validate theoretical models of the pulse against experimental data from the Jozef Stefan Institute TRIGA Mark II research reactor. Data from all pulse experiments since 1991 have been collected, analysed and are publicly available. This paper summarizes the validation study, which is focused on the comparison between experimental values, theoretical predictions (Fuchs-Hansen and Nordheim-Fuchs models) and calculation using computational program Improved Pulse Model. The results show that the theoretical models predicts higher maximum power but lower total released energy, full width at half maximum and the time when the maximum power is reached is shorter, compared to Improved Pulse Model. We evaluate the uncertainties in pulse physical parameters (maximum power, total released energy and full width at half maximum) due to uncertainties in reactor physical parameters (inserted reactivity, delayed neutron fraction, prompt neutron lifetime and effective temperature reactivity coefficient of fuel). It is found that taking into account overestimated correlation of reactor physical parameters does not significantly affect the estimated uncertainties of pulse physical parameters. The relative uncertainties of pulse physical parameters decrease with increasing inserted reactivity. If all reactor physical parameters feature an uncorrelated uncertainty of 10 % the estimated total uncertainty in peak pulse power at 3 $ inserted reactivity is 59 %, where significant contributions come from uncertainties in prompt neutron lifetime and effective temperature reactivity coefficient of fuel. In addition we analyse contribution of two physical mechanisms (Doppler broadening of resonances and neutron spectrum shift) that contribute to the temperature reactivity coefficient of fuel. The Doppler effect contributes around 30 %-15 % while the rest is due to the thermal spectrum hardening for a temperature range between 300 K and 800 K.

In this paper, it is reported that film-bulk-acoustic resonator with high c-axis oriented AIN film on $Mo/SiO_2/Si(100)$ using metal-organic-chemical-vapor deposition was fabricated. The resonant frequency and anti-resonant frequency of the fabricated resonator were observed with 3.189[GHz] and 3.224[GHz], respectively. The quality factor and the effective electromechanical coupling coefficient(${k_{eff}}^2$) were measured with 24.7 and 2.65[%], respectively. The conditions of AIN deposition were substrate temperature of $950[^{\circ}C]$, pressure of 20Torr, and V-III ratio of 25000. A high c-axis oriented AIN film with $4{\times}10^{-5}[\Omega{cm}]$ resistivity of Mo bottom electrode and $4[^{\circ}]$ of AIN(0002) full-width at half-maximum(FWHM) on $Mo/SiO_2/Si(100)$ was grown successfully. The FWHM value of deposited AIN film is useful for the RF band pass filter specification for GHz-band wireless local area network.

A method fully utilizing multiscale line filter responses is presented to estimate the point spread function(PSF) of a CT scanner and diameters of small tubular structures based on the PSF. The estimation problem is formulated as a least square fitting of a sequence of multiscale responses obtained at each medical axis point to the precomputed multiscale response curve for the ideal line model. The method was validated through phantom experiments and demonstrated through phantom experiments and demonstrated to accurately measure small-diameter structures which are significantly overestimated by conventional methods based on the full width half maximum(FWHM) and zero-crossing edge detection.

In this paper, the authors present a new design for a broad-band metamaterial(MTM) absorber that utilizes flexible substrate. The proposed MTM unit cell is constructed by a electric-inducive-capacitive(ELC) resonator and a cut-wire on the same side of the flexible polyimide substrate. To reduce the radar cross section at frequencies other than the targeted frequency bands, the metallic pattern layer of the proposed structure is placed facing toward the incident wave propagation direction. A prototype absorber was fabricated with a planar array of $33{\times}45$ unit cells. Our experiments showed that the proposed absorber exhibits a peak absorption rate of 92 % and 93 % at 9.06 GHz and 15.0 GHz, respectively, and 75 % of the full-width at half-maximum(FWHM) bandwidth is achieved. The proposed backplane-less MTM structure can be used for a broad-band microwave absorber and irregular surface applications.

In this paper, a wideband microwave absorber for X-band(8~12 GHz) applications is proposed. The structure of the proposed absorber unit cell consists of a resonator with a slot and slit, a backing ground plate, and a Taconic RF-30(${\varepsilon}_r=3$, $tan{\delta}=0.0014$) substrate with a dimension of $8.5{\times}8.5{\times}0.5mm^3$. The proposed absorber has a dual resonance at 9.83 and 10.37 GHz. To demonstrate the operating principle of the proposed absorber structure at each resonance frequency, the simulated current distributions on the unit cell are analyzed. To verify the performance of the proposed absorber, a prototype absorber was fabricated with a planar array of $20{\times}20$ unit cells. The measured results exhibit two absorptivity peaks stronger than 99 % and full-width at half-maximum(FWHM) bandwidth of 1.1 GHz(9.51~10.61 GHz).

Effect of the thermal poling on the 1.55 fm emission spectra in various Er$^{3+}$ -doped glasses was investigated with a special attention on the changes in the values of FWHM(Full Width at Half Maximum) intensity. Tellurite glasses poled at 28$0^{\circ}C$ with an electric voltage of 4 kV resulted in an approximately 6% increase in FWHM values compared with their unpoled counterparts. On the other hand, values for glasses, such as aluminosilicate, sulfide and chalcohalide, either decreased or remained unchanged. The characteristic results from tellurite glasses are most probably due to the presence of lone-pair electrons in the TeO$_4$ hi-pyramidal units that form the main network structure of tellurite glasses.

In this study, we aimed to develop a maturity classification model for tomatoes using hyperspectral imaging in the range of 400 - 1,000 nm. Fifty-seven tomatoes harvested in August and November of 2021 were used as the sample set, and hyperspectral data was extracted from the surfaces of these tomatoes. A combined method of SNV (standard normal variate) and SG (Savitzky-Golay) methods was used for the pre-processing of the hyperspectral data. In addition, the hyperspectral data were analyzed for all maturity stages and considering bandwidths with different FWHM (full width at half maximum) values of 2, 25, and 50 nm. The PCA (principal component analysis) method was used to analyze the principal components related to maturity stages for the tomatoes. As a result, 500 - 550 nm and 650 - 700 nm bands were found to be related to the maturity stages of tomatoes. In addition, PC1 and PC2 explained approximately 97% of the variance at all FWHM conditions and thus were used as input data for classification model training based on the SVM (support vector machine). The SVM models were able to classify tomato maturity into five stages (Green, Turning, Pink, Light red, and Red) with over 95% accuracy regardless of the FWHM condition. Therefore, it was considered that hyperspectral data with 50 nm FWHM and SVM is feasible for use in the classification of tomato maturity into five stages.

We investigated surface-relief profiles of the TPHK(telecentric paraxial holographic kinofrm) used as a Fourier-transform lens employing exact geometrical raytracing. For the TPHK of F/8 and focal length of 15 mm, we consider the cases where the thickness of the substrate is 0 and 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, dividing the surface-relif profiles into fifty steps from plano-convex to convexplano shapes and varying the angle of incidence($0^{\circ},{2.5}^{\circ},5^{\circ}$). In order to identify appropriate surface-relief profiles, we employ, as criteria of performance, rms spot size, rms deviation from $f{\sin}{\theta}$, peak position and FWHM(full width at half maximum), number of rays abandoned from raytracing etc., which are determined from the result of exact raytracing. It is found that the profile with 80% of its relief thickness facing the image plane gives the best performance regardless of the presence of substrate.
