Textile scientists have regarded the material appearance of natural fibers, especially that of silk or wool fibers, as the benchmark for reinventing the look and feel of the long term, friendly companion of mankind. The appearances or textures of the materials surrounding us in everyday life have long been interesting topics to many people.from scholars to painters. Even the simplest questions may require careful pondering. Why is the silk fabric so lustrous with subtlety? Recently, appearance models have become increasingly important in textile products. They are needed to model and simulate different models. In this study, the optical characteristics of filament yarns and knitted fabrics were investigated using images taken at various angles and illumination conditions. Then the images were analyzed using some image analysis techniques, such as thresholding and measuring luster blobs. The anisotropic nature of the filamentous specimens was studied based on the images acquired at different incident illumination and observing angles with several alignment positions of the fabric specimens. A few cylindrical models were generated using commercially available software, Rhinoceros, and then on the models, a ray-tracing algorithm based on a software, POV-Ray, was applied to simulate the appearance or lustrous images of the monofilament models.

We have investigated the generation of pretilt angle for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with in-situ photoalignment method on polyimide (PI) surfaces using polymer films. Especially, we studied in-situ photoalignment changing heating temperature from $50^{\circ}C\;to\;120^{\circ}C$ on the polymer film. The LC aligning capabilities and pretilt angle on the polymer substrates were better than those on the glass substrate using in-situ photoalignment method. It is considered that this increase in pretilt angle may be attributed to the roughness of the micro-groove substrate induced by the in-situ photoalignment. As temperature of heated subtrate and UV exposure time increase, pretilt angle of the cell used polymer film increased. It is considered that the heating temperature of substrate is attributed to generate pretilt angle. Also, electro-optical performances of the in-situ photoaligned TN cell using the polymer substrate are almost the same as that of the TN cell using the glass substrate.

Expose equipment system that is used for manufacturing process of Flat Panel Display, is most important equipment in whole process. Expose equipment that is for making pattern of mask on substrate, consists of optical part, stage part and transport part. The stage is an important part that aligns mask and substrate for delivering pattern of mask to substrate exactly. In this paper, control system of expose stage that is able to use mask and substrate of diverse size, with PC controller using GUI interface instead of PLC control system. The existing PLC control system does not have the suitable structure for using mask of diverse size. GUI interface integration control system is based on PC. So it has the advantage of convenient use and active operation. We embodied PLC control system in integration control system based on PC, and verified utility possibility through the standard test course.

An off-axis telescope has several advantages in optical performance comparing with a conventional on-axis telescope. However, in general, an off-axis telescope has a narrow field of view due to the linear astigmatism caused by the asymmetric structure. It was shown in the previous work that the linear astigmatism can be eliminated by properly configuring parameters in a confocal off-axis reflector system. Furthermore, the third order aberrations of a confocal off-axis telescope can be minimized by optimizing the shape of the mirrors. Despite many advantages, the confocal off-axis telescopes have been evaded because of difficulties of off-axis mirror fabrication, alignment process and unaccustomed off-axis baffle design. The baffle for the off-axis telescope should be designed considering that the effects of stray lights are different because of the asymmetry of off-axis system. In this poster, the design, manufacturing, and test for the baffle and housing of an off-axis telescope are presented.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics of reflective $45^{\circ}$ twisted nematic liquid crystal display which implement the new LC orientation using of in-cell retarder film. For the embodiment of reflective liquid crystal display, essentially the optic compensation films was always needed and attached to the outside of glass substrate. In our study, these optic compensation film were not employed in reflective LC cell. On other hand we have employed the in-cell retarder to substitute the optic compensation film and were able to orient the LC molecules using this in-cell retarder. So we have developed the reflective LC cell that has good optical performances without any additional coating process on the in-cell retarder.

ZnO semiconductor has a wide band gap of 3.37 eV and a large exciton binding energy of 60 meV, and displays excellent sensing and optical properties. In particular, ZnO based 1D nanowires and nanorods have received intensive attention because of their potential applications in various fields. We grew ZnO buffer layers prior to the growth of ZnO nanorods for the fabrication of the vertically well-aligned ZnO nanorods without any catalysts. The ZnO nanorods were grown on Si (111) substrates by vertical MOCVD. The ZnO buffer layers were grown with various thicknesses at $400^{\circ}C$ and their effect on the formation of ZnO nanorods at $300^{\circ}C$ was evaluated by FESEM, XRD, and PL. The synthesized ZnO nanorods on the ZnO film show a high quality, a large-scale uniformity, and a vertical alignment along the [0001]ZnO compared to those on the Si substrates showing the randomly inclined ZnO nanorods. For sample using ZnO buffer layer, 1D ZnO nanorods with diameters of 150-200 nm were successively fabricated at very low growth temperature, while for sample without ZnO buffer the ZnO films with rough surface were grown.

We synthesized the two types of photoalignment material of high thermal resistance with hydroxyl aromatic polyimide, and studied the liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities on the photopolymer layers. Also, electro-optical (EO) performances for the twisted-nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) photoaligned with linearly polarized UV exposure were investigated. A good LC alignment with UV exposure on the two types of photopolymer surface can be obtained. The Voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve in the photoaligned TN cell with UV exposure was different from two type. The response time of photoaligned TN cell was measured about 21 ms in two alkyl chain and about 15ms in four alkyl chain.

현재 광 정렬 시스템에 채용하고 있는 다채널 광 파워미터는 측정 채널의 수가 증가하는 상황이다. 그러나 기존 시스템 제어를 통한 각 채널의 정밀한 정렬은 다 채널 광 파워미터 기술에 적합하지 않은 방식이다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 기존 방식을 채택한 광 정렬 방식을 개선하기 위해 하다마스 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 방법을 제안한다. 다채널 광학 정렬 시스템에서 가장 중요한 문제는 채널의 증가에 따라 채널별 정렬의 정밀도가 떨어진다. 기존 정렬 시스템에서 채용하고 있는 다채널 광 파워미터의 기술 수준은 약 4채널까지 동시 측정이 가능하였다. 이 방법은 채널 양쪽에 검출기를 설치하여 광량의 최대 지점을 최적 정렬 위치로 결정한다. 그러나 시스템 채널이 증가할 수록 안쪽에 위치한 광소자를 정렬을 무시하기 때문에 정확한 정렬에 적합하지 않다. 그리고 고속, 대용량의 데이터 처리요구에 맞추기 위한 64채널 광소자 생산을 위해서는 16개의 4채널 광 파워미터를 사용하는 방법이 있으나 이는 신뢰할 만한 수준의 측정치를 제공하지 못한다. 따라서 새로운 개념을 적용한 다채널 동시측정을 위한 광소자 측정 기술 및 광 파워미터의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 하다마드 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 시스템은 이러한 요구를 충족시킬 수 있다. 그러므로 본 논문은 하다마드 변환 복원 알고리즘을 이용한 광 능동 정렬 검출 시스템이 기존의 시스템보다 우수한 알고리즘과 성능을 가지고 있음을 실험을 통해 입증한다.

We prove that 3-D profile mapping using white light interferometry has systematic errors caused by aberrations of the optimal system. The tilt of an object invokes an offset between the object and the reference ray, which eventually makes the aberration cancel incompletely. The fringe peak of a white light interferogram is mainly affected by the aberration effect while the envelope peak remains stable. By the difference between the two peaks, it is easily confirmed how much the error existed in the fringe peak. Experimental results prove that the error caused by aberration is varied by object tilt, microscope NA, optics alignment within the range of $\pm$50nm.

Laser communication has been considered as a novel method for earth observation satellites with generation of high data volume. It offers faster data transmission speeds compared to conventional radio frequency (RF) communication due to the short wavelength and narrow beam divergence. However, laser beams are refracted due to atmospheric turbulence between the ground and the satellite. Refracted laser beams, upon reaching the receiver, result in angle-of-arrival (AoA) fluctuation, inducing image dancing and wavefront distortion. These phenomena hinder signal acquisition and lead to signal loss in the course of laser communication. So, precise alignment between the transmitter and receiver is essential to guarantee effective and reliable laser communication, which is achieved by pointing, acquisition, and tracking (PAT) system. In this study, we simulate the effectiveness of tip/tilt compensation for more efficient laser communication in the satellite-ground downlink. By compensating for low-order terms using tip/tilt mirror, we verify the alleviation of AoA fluctuations under both weak and strong atmospheric turbulence conditions. And the performance of tip/tilt correction is analyzed in terms of the AoA fluctuation and collected power on the detector.
