We propose a novel planar optical interconnection scheme for 100 Gb/s optical packet address detection, which consists of waveguide grating couplers and a diffractive microlens integrated on a glass substrate 3-dimensionally. Length and duty cycle of the grating couplers have been determined on the bases of the ray-optic propagation-mode analysis in a slab waveguide and of the rigorous coupled-wave diffraction analysis for out-coupled radiation-modes. The 3-dimensionally integrated planar optics makes it possible to connect each address bit-signals of $TE_ 0-waveguide$ mode to the detector with a power uniformity of 6.4 % and a total coupling efficiency of 72.3 %.

This is a widespread requirement for low cost lightweight thermal imaging sensors for both military and civilian applications. Today, a large number of uncooled infrared detector developments are under progress due to the availability of silicon technology that enables realization of low cost IR sensor. System prices are continuing to drop, and swelling production volume will soon drive process substantially lower. The feasibility of micromechanical optical and infrared (IR) detection using microcantilevers is demonstrated. Microcantilevers provide a simple Structurefor developing single- and multi-element sensors for visible and infrared radiation that are smaller, more sensitive and lower in cost than quantum or thermal detectors. Microcantilevers coated with a heat absorbing layer undergo bending due to the differential stress originating from the bimetallic effect. This paper reports a micromachined silicon uncooled thermal imager intended for applications in automated process control. This paper presents the design, fabrication, and the behavior of cantilever for thermomechanical sensing.

A technique for the reduction of pulse pile-up effect in digital pulse-shape discrimination (PSD) of neutrons and gamma-rays with organic scintillation detectors is presented. The technique is based on an electronic reduction of the effective decay-time constant of scintillation pulses while retaining the PSD information of the pulses. The experimental results obtained with a NE213 liquid scintillation detector in a mixed radiation field of neutrons and gamma-rays are presented, demonstrating a figure of merit (FOM) of 1.20 ± 0.05 with an energy threshold of 350 keVee (electron equivalent energy) when the effective length of the pulses is reduced to 50 ns.

The demands for reliable particle cloud temperature measurement exist in many process industries and scientific researches. Particle cloud temperature measurements depend on radiation thermometry at two or more color bands. In this study, we developed a sensitive, fast response and compact online infrared two-color probe to measure the temperature of a particle cloud in a phase of two field flow (solid-gas). The probe employs a detector contained two InGaAs photodiodes with different spectral responses in the same optical path, which allowed a compact probe design. The probe was designed to suit temperature measurements in harsh environments with the advantage of durability. The developed two-color probe is capable of detecting particle cloud temperature as low as $300^{\circ}C$, under dynamic conditions.

A measurement-based time-domain noise simulation of radiation detector-preamplifier (front-end) noise in nuclear spectroscopy is described. The time-domain noise simulation was performed by generating "noise random numbers" using Monte Carlo's inverse method. The probability of unpredictable noise was derived from the empirical cumulative distribution function via the sampled noise, which was measured from a preamplifier output. Results of the simulated noise were investigated as functions of time, frequency, and statistical domains. Noise behavior was evaluated using the signal wave-shaping function, and was compared with the actual noise. Similarities between the response characteristics of the simulated and the actual preamplifier output noises were found. The simulated noise and the computed nuclear pulse signal were also combined to generate a simulated preamplifier output signal. Such simulated output signals could be used in nuclear spectroscopy to determine energy resolution degradation from front-end noise effect.

In x-ray imaging system, twokinds of noises are involved. First, the charge generated from the radiation interaction with the detector during exposure is modeled by Poisson process. Second, the signal is then added by readout electronics noise, which is modeled by Gaussian distribution. In this paper, we applied Wiener filter and Wavelet to remove noise from medical X-ray image, the result shows that wavelet yield better segmentation results than the wiener filter.

ZnTe epilayers have been successfully grown on (100) CaAs substrate by hot wall epitaxy (HWE) with Zn reservoir. Optimum growth condition has been determined by a four-crystal rocking curve (FCRC). It was found that Zn partial pressure from h reservoir has a strong influence on the quality of grown films. Under the determined optimum growth condition, ZnTe epitaxial films with thickness of 0.72~24.8${\mu}m$ were grown for studying the effect of the thickness on crystalline quality. The FCRC results indicated that the quality of ZnTe films becomes higher rapidly with increase of thickness up to 6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The best value of the FWHM of the few crystal rocking curve, 66 arcsec, was obtained on the film with $12{\mu}m$ in thickness. Until now, this result shows the best quality of ZnTe/GaAs films in reported.

The high quality and a nearly stoichometric growth of $Cd_{1-y} Zn_y$/Te(y＝0.04) epilayers have been successfully grown on GaAs substrate by hot wall epitaxy (HWE) by optimizing the growth condition including the preheating treatment and Cd reservoir temperature. The relationship between quality and thickness was examined and best value of FWHM from X-ray rocking curve of 121 arcsec are obtained. Also, emission peaks related to the recombination of free excitons such as the ground state and the first excited state were observed in the PL spectrum at 4.2K. The ($A^0$, X) emission related to Cd vacancy and deep level emission was not measured. These results indicated that the grown CZT/GaAs epilayer was high qualify and purity.

부귀환펄스선형증폭기에 단계전압과 방사능검출기에서 나오는 펄스와 같이 빠른 펄스를 인가하였을 경우의 이득 안정도에 관하여 해석하였고 실험하였다. 이들 빠른 입력전압이 부귀환증폭기에 인가되면 출력전압의 선형도와 안정도는 증폭기의 rise time의 수배가 경과하여야 부귀효과가 나타난다. 이 제한을 주리기 위하여는 부귀환증폭기의 rise time을 계측할려는 입력펄스의 폭보다 적도록 설계하여야 한다는 것을 표시하였다.

광변환 물질을 사용하여 X-선이나 감마방사선을 가시 광으로 변환한 다음 CCD 카메라를 통하여 광량을 측정하면 방사선의 양을 간접적으로 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CCD형 비상대응 로봇용 고속 삼차원 방사선 위치 탐지장치에서 방사선 위치 센싱의 핵심 역할을 수행하는 CCD 방사선 탐지부를 간접 방사선 측정 방법을 응용하여 고안하고 구현한 다음 이에 대한 방사선 특성시험 및 거리측정을 수행하였다. 시험 결과로부터 구현한 CCD형 방사선 센서가 방사선 위치 및 선량 탐지장치로 활용 가능성이 충분함 확인하였다.
