Laser cutting tests were conducted to investigate the laser cutting characteristics of solid woods such as 25mm-thick white oak(Quercus acutissima) and maple(Acer mono), and wood-based panels such as 15mm-thick medium density fiberboard and particleboard. Test variables were laser power, cutting speed, grain direction, and moisture content. Specific cutting energy was measured and the qualities of cut surface were estimated in constant laser power. Specific cutting energy of white oak was larger than that of maple, and specific cutting energy of medium density fiberboard was smaller than that of particleboard. For both white oak and maple, specific cutting energy of green wood was smaller than that of air-dried wood because weight loss of moisture evaporation in green wood was larger than that in air-dried wood. In laser-cut surface, wood cells were not deformed and damaged, but in circular saw-cut surface fibers were pushed out and cut, and wood cells were deformed severely. However, mechanical surface roughness of saw-cut surface was smoother than that of laser-cut surface because of the existence of undeformed cell cavity in laser-cut surface.

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a dye approved for use in clinical diagnostics. ICG remains in the intravascular space following intravenous administration, due to its ability to rapidly bind to the plasma proteins, and its therapeutic potential has been studied in well-vascularized cutaneous tumors. Here we have evaluated the clinical response of a subconjunctival tumor to photothermal therapy (PTT) using an ICG-enhanced near-infrared diode laser and its adverse effects, in a rabbit. 22 male New Zealand white rabbits with subconjunctival tumors were enrolled (control group 6, laser-only group 8, laser-with-ICG group 8). Rabbits in the laser-with-ICG group received ICG (twice, 2 mg/kg each time, intravenously) directly followed by irradiation with a diode laser (λ = 810 nm). Rabbits in the laser-only group were irradiated with the diode laser. ICG angiography, ultrasonography, and pathologic examination were performed to evaluate PTT response at specific time points (0, 2, and 4 weeks after PTT). Two weeks after initial treatment, the eight rabbits treated by laser with ICG showed a 100% response rate. There was no clinical response in both laser-only and control groups. ICG-PTT is a potential and effective palliative therapeutic modality for subconjunctival tumors.

Argon laser used in this case report, is special in having two wavelength of 488, 514nm blue-green visible light spectrum. Blue light is used for composite resin polymerization and caries detection. Green light is used for soft tissue surgery and coagulation. Maximum absorption of this laser light occurs in red pigmentation such as hemoglobin. The argon laser may be well-suited for selective destruction of blood clots and hemangioma with minimal damage to adjacent tissues. Argon laser light penetrates tissue to the 1 mm depth, so its thermal intensity is lower than $CO_2$ laser light. Also, due to its short wavelength it can be focused in a small spot and even single gene can be excised by this laser and microscopy. After applicating argon laser to 4 patient for surgical procedure and to 1 patient for curing the composite resin, following results were obtained. 1. Improved visibility were gained due to hemostasis and no specific technique were needed according to easy recontouring of the tissue. 2. Ability to use by contact mode, tactile sense was superior but tissue dragability and accumulation of tissue on the tip needed sweeping motion. 3. Additive local anesthetic procedure was needed. 4. No suture and less curing time reduced chair time, this made argon laser available in pediatric dentistry.

In this work, a novel three-dimensional model in the generalized thermoelasticity for a homogeneous an isotropic medium was investigated with diffusion, under the effect of thermal loading due to laser pulse in the context of Green-Lindsay theory was investigated. The normal mode analysis technique is used to solve the resulting non-dimensional equations of the problem. Numerical results for the displacement, the thermal stress, the strain, the temperature, the mass concentration, and the chemical potential distributions are represented graphically to display the effect of the thermal loading due to laser pulse and the relaxation time on the resulting quantities. Comparisons are made within the theory in the presence and absence of laser pulse.

RGB laser 를 이용하여 rf-magnetron sputtering 법으로 합성한 a-IGZO 박막의 photoresponse 를 관찰하였다. Air 분위기에서 red 파장을 조사 할 경우 비교적 slow recovery 특성을 보였으며, green 과 blue 파장을 조사 할 경우 red 보다 fast recovery 특성을 나타내었다. 그러나 진공에서 측정할 경우, red 파장에서는 recovery 가 빨라졌으며, green 과 blue 파장의 경우 recovery 가 매우 느려짐을 확인하였다. 이는 passivation 을 하지 않은 소자의 oxygen gas 의 흡/탈착 때문으로 예상할 수 있었으며, red 파장이 gas 탈착에 기여하는 정도가 매우 작고, green 과 blue 파장이 gas 탈착에 기여하는 정도가 매우 크기 때문인 것으로 생각할 수 있었다. 온도를 증가시킬 경우, 모든 경우에서 recovery 가 빠르게 나타났는데 이는 흡/탈착에 필요한 barrier 및 $V_o{^{2+}}$에서 Vo 로 돌아오기 위한 barrier 를 쉽게 넘어갈 수 있기 때문으로 이해 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 stretched exponential equation 을 이용하여 해석하였으며 수치화 하였다.

Microstructural characterizations of II-VI blue laser diodes which consist of quaternary $Zn_{1-x}Mg_xS_ySe_{l-y}$ cladding layer, ternary $ZnS_ySe_{l-y}$ guiding layer and $Zn_{0.8}Cd_{0.2}Se$ quantum well as active layer were carried out using the transmission electron microscope working at 300 kV. Even though the entire structure is pseudomorphic to GaAs substrate, the structure had contained numerous extended stacking faults and dislocations which had created at ZnSe/GaAs interfaces and then further grown to the top of the epilayers. These faults might be expected to cause the degradation and shortening the lifetime of laser devices.

이 연구의 목적은 indocyanine green (ICG)과 근적외선 diode 레이저의 사용이 다종 우식원성 바이오필름에 미치는 항균 효과를 조사하는 것이다. Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus casei, Candida albicans를 포함하는 다종 바이오필름이 ICG와 808 nm 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용하여 서로 다른 조사 시간에 따라 처리되었다. Colony-forming unit (CFU)을 측정하였고, 바이오필름의 정성적 평가를 위해 공초점 레이저 주사 현미경(Confocal laser scanning microscopy, CLSM) 관찰을 시행하였다. 또한 광열 치료의 효과를 평가하기 위해 온도 측정이 시행되었다. ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용한 군에서 CFU의 감소량이 통계적으로 유의하였으나, L. casei와 C. albicans에서는 시간에 따른 항균 효과의 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. CLSM 관찰에서도 유사한 세균 감소를 확인할 수 있었다. ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용한 군은 ICG 없이 광조사를 시행한 군보다 더 높은 온도 상승을 보였으며, 측정된 온도는 열 치료의 온도 범위와 유사하였다. 결론적으로, ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저는 다종 우식원성 바이오필름에 항균 효과를 보였다. 우식 예방을 위한 보조 수단으로 사용될 가능성을 가지나, 임상적인 적용을 위해서는 적용 프로토콜에 관한 연구가 필요하다.

Laser-doped selective emitter process requires dopant source deposition, spin-on-glass, and is able to form selective emitter through SiNx layer by laser irradiation on desired locations. However, after laser doping process, the remaining dopant layer needs to be washed out. Laser-induced melting of pre-deposited impurity doping is a precise selective doping method minimizing addition of process steps. In this study, we introduce a novel scheme for fabricating highly efficient selective emitter solar cell by laser doping. During this process, laser induced damage induces front contact destabilization due to the hindrance of silver nucleation even though laser doping has a potential of commercialization with simple process concept. When the laser induced damage is effectively removed using solution etch back process, the disadvantage of laser doping was effectively removed. The devices fabricated using laser doping scheme power conversion efficiency was significantly improved about 1% abs. after removal the laser damages.

ZnO thin films were deposited on (001) sapphire substrate at various ambient gas pressure by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Oxygen was used as ambient gas, and oxygen gas pressure was varied from 1.0${\times}$10$\^$-6/ Torr to 500 mTorr during the film deposition. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region below critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region increase. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region above critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region decrease. Each of critical ambient gas Pressures was 350 mTorr for UV emission and 200 mTorr for green emission.
