  • A two-dimensional lens is required to reproduce both the horizontal and vertical parallax through an autostereoscopic 3D display. Among the two-dimensional lenses, a hexagonal micro lens array (MLA) having good optical efficiency is mainly used. However, the hexagonal MLA has complex geometric features. The first feature is that the lens cells are zigzagged in the vertical direction, which should be reflected in the view number calculation for each sub-pixel. The second feature is that the four sides of a hexagonal lens cell are tilted, requiring a more careful view index assignment to the lens cell. In this paper, we propose a sub-pixel multiplexing scheme suitable for the features of the hexagonal MLA. We also propose a view-overlay algorithm based on a two-dimensional lens and compare subjective image quality with existing view-selection through autostereoscopic 3D display implementation.

  • 마이크로 컬럼은 차세대 리소그라피 기술의 하나로 마이크로 컬럼의 기능이 기존의 전자빔 컬럼을 능가하여 주목을 받는다. 초소형 전자빔 컬럼은 기존의 전자빔 컬럼과 비교하여 수차, 렌즈의 크기 및 원형에 성능이 보다 민감하게 반응하므로 정확한 정렬과 가공 기술은 초소형 전자빔 마이크로 컬럼의 성능에 매우 중요하다. 그러나, 기준치 piezoelectric transducer (PZT)나 scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)을 이용한 정렬 기술은 매우 복잡하고 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 연구에시는 레이저 회절 패턴방식과 레이저 정밀 가공으로 실리콘 렌즈와 파이렉스 spacer를 정확하게 교대로 조립하였으며, 이 방법으로 완성된 마이크로 컬럼의 STEM동작을 조사하였다.

  • A new etching technique of meltback was investigated for GaAs lensed optical devices with selective windows opending in the LPE (liquid phase epitaxy) system. In the meltback process, the etch depth and the etch shape were controlled by the degree of under-saturation, etch time and other parameters. A GaAs/AlGaAs DH layer was grown on the selectively etched hemispherical well for optical device application such as lensed surface emitting LED. The regrowth process were related with the coolin grate and the well to well spacing. A novel surface emitting LED with hemispherical AlGaAs lens was fabricated using the meltbakc and regrowth as the key process for AlaAs lens array. The light emitting efficiency of the LED was upto three times higher than the similar structure LED without lens. The meltback and regrowth technique was applicable to manufacture the optical device in LPE.

  • A position control method for interpolating aspherical grinding and polishing tool path was reviewed and experimented in a nano precision machine. The position-base algorithm was reformed from the time-base algorithm, proposed in the previous study. The characteristics of the algorithm were in the velocity control loop with position feedback. The aspherical surface was divided by an interval at which each velocity and acceleration were calculated. The theoretical velocity was corrected by position error during processing. In the experiment, a machine was constructed and nano-scale linear encoders were installed at each axis. Relation between process parameters and the variation of position error was monitored and discussed. The best result from optimized parameters showed that the accuracy was 150nm and improved from the previous report.

  • There is a tendency nowadays to produce increasingly miniaturized electronic equipment which incorporate parts that have to be precisely positioned, like lenses, heads and CCD's in scanners, printers, copiers, VCR's, optical fiber modules, etc. In contrast to the production process of precision parts, which is currently being carried out automatically, the assemblage process is still being performed by specially skilled technicians. The assemblage process comprises normally the following steps: firstly, the parts are roughly positioned and partially fixed, secondly, the parts are manually nudged towards the target position and finally glued, screwed or welded. This paper presents a system that uses six piezo Impact Drive Mechanisms for accurate micro positioning within three degrees of freedom (lateral and longitudinal translation and rotation). The system is designed to positioning a printed circuit board with an accuracy better than 3 .mu.m (for translations), 5 mrad (for rotation).

  • The precision fabrication of glass is increasingly demanded for the latest industrial applications of spherical lenses, micro-optical components, and so on. In many cases, the surface roughness of glass is required to be minute for improving the optical characteristics. In this paper, machining characteristics of SF-5 glass and quarts glass are studied by using the ELID grinding process to get mirror surface and productivity compared with a general lapping process. A rotary type grinder with air spindle was used for the experiments. Mitutoyo surface tester and AFM were also used to measure the grinded surface of glass. As the results of experiments, they showed that the surface roughness (Ra) of SF-5 glass was under 7.8 nm and that of quartz glass was under 3.0 m using the # 8000 grinder. So, the possibility of highly efficient and accurate surface for optical components can be achieved by the ELID grinding process.

  • Real-time three-dimensional shape measurement is becoming increasingly important in various fields, including medical sciences, high-technology industry, and microscale measurements. However, there are not so many 3D profile tools specially designed for specifically narrow space, for example, to scan the tooth shape of a human jaw. In this paper, a real-time 3D intraoral scanner is proposed for the measurement of tooth profile in the mouth cavity. The proposed system comprises a laser diode beam, a micro charge-coupled device, a graticule, a piezoelectric transducer, a set of optical lenses, and a polhemus device sensor. The phase-shifting technique is used along with an accurate calibration method for the measurement of the tooth profile. Experimental and theoretical inspection of the phase-to-coordinate relation is presented. In addition, a nonlinear system model is developed for collimating illumination that gives the more accurate mathematical representation of the system, thus improves the shape measurement accuracy. Experiment results are presented to verify the feasibility and performance of the developed system. The experimental results indicate that overall measurement error accuracy can be controlled within 0.4 mm with a variability of ${\pm}0.01$.

  • When screen size of the Flat Panel Display (FPD) becomes larger, the traditional photo-lithography using photomasks and UV lamps might not be possible to make patterns on Photo Resist (PR) material due to limitation of the mask size. Though the maskless photo-lithography using UV lasers and scanners had been developed to implement large screen display, it was very slow to apply the process for mass-production systems. The laser exposure system using 405 nm semi-conductor lasers and Digital Micromirror Devices (DMD) has been developed to overcome above-mentioned problems and make more than 100 inches FPD devices. It makes very fine patterns for full HD display and exposes them very fast. The optical engines which contain DMD, Micro Lens Array (MLA) and projection lenses are designed for 10 to 50 ${\mu}m$ bitmap pattern resolutions. The test patterns for LCD and PDP displays are exposed on PR and Dry Film Resists (DFR) which are coated or laminated on some specific substrates and developed. The fabricated edges of the sample patterns are well-defined and the results are satisfied with tight manufacturing requirements.

  • We built a simple Adaptive Optics (AO) system at laboratory. This AO system is a step toward developing AO system for astronomical use. In this step, the AO system consists of He-Ne laser as a artificial light source, wavefront sensor, MEMS (Micro electro mechanical system) type deformable mirror and several lenses. MEMS deformable mirror allows the compact system at low cost and the only several mm sized collimated beam. We made Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor using a lenslet array and a fast frame CCD. Its performance is verified using an artificial phase disturber and noting the movement of spot images by the lenslet array. The frame rate of the driving software is about 70 fps, depending on the control parameters. The characteristics of MEMS deformable mirror was measured which includes the voltage-to-deflection relation, influence function, and cross-talk. The total system is operated under closed-loop control for the artificial phase disturber and the wavefront is found to be compensated successfully.
