  • The hydrophilic ophthalmic lens with addition of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA), 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA) and Ag nanoparticles were manufactured. And also, the cross-linker ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) and the initiator azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) were used for polymerization. The polymerization of the hydrogel lens material was conducted through thermal polymerization in 100 ℃ for 1h. The optical and physical characteristics of hydrogel lens were evaluated by measuring water content, refractive index and optical transmittance. The water content of sample containing HEA, HEMA and HPMA was in the average of 82.12%, 37.06% and 21.57%, respectively. And also, refractive index of the sample containing HEA, HEMA and HPMA was in the average of 1.3540, 1.4330 and 1.4649, respectively. In case of the optical properties of the sample, the results showed that the near-UV transmittance was 82.67%, 80.32% and 79.83%, and the visible transmittance was 89.72%, 88.24% and 86.89%, respectively. And also, optical transmittance of the sample containing Ag nanoparticles showed that the near-UV transmittance of 10.59% and visible transmittance of 43.74% were obtained. From the results, the molecular length influenced on the water content and refractive index of the polymerized material.

  • Our laboratory originally developed the compact, multi-spectral, automatic aerial photographic system PKNU3 to allow greater flexibility in geological and environmental data collection. We are currently developing the PKNU3 system, which consists of a color-infrared spectral camera capable of simultaneous photography in the visible and near-infrared bands; a thermal infrared camera; two computers, each with an 80-gigabyte memory capacity for storing images; an MPEG board that can compress and transfer data to the computers in real-time; and the capability of using a helicopter platform. Before actual aerial photographic testing of the PKNU3, we experimented with each sensor. We analyzed the lens distortion, the sensitivity of the CCD in each band, and the thermal response of the thermal infrared sensor before the aerial photographing. As of September 2004, the PKNU3 development schedule has reached the second phase of testing. As the result of two aerial photographic tests, R, G, B and IR images were taken simultaneously; and images with an overlap rate of 70% using the automatic 1-s interval data recording time could be obtained by PKNU3. Further study is warranted to enhance the system with the addition of gyroscopic and IMU units. We evaluated the PKNU 3 system as a method of environmental remote sensing by comparing each chlorophyll image derived from PKNU 3 photographs. This appraisement was backed up with existing study that resulted in a modest improvement in the linear fit between the measures of chlorophyll and the RVI, NDVI and SAVI images stem from photographs taken by Duncantech MS 3100 which has same spectral configuration with MS 4000 used in PKNU3 system.

  • We fabricated ordered micro/nano patterns induced by controlled dewetting on the topographically patterned PS/P4VP bilayer thin film. The method is based on utilizing microimprinting lithography to induce a topographically heterogeneous bilayer film that allows the controlled dewetting upon subsequent thermal annealing. The dewetting that was initiated strictly at the boundary of the thicker and thinner regions was guided by the presence of the topographic structure. The dewetting front velocity of the microdomains in the confined regions was linearly proportional to the measurement time, which enabled us to control the size of the dewet domain with annealing time. In particular, the submicron sized dot arrays between lines were generated with ease when the dewetting was confined into geometry with a few microns in size. The kinetically driven, non-lithographical pattern structures accompanied the pattern reduction to 400%. The pattern arrays on a transparent glass substrate were especially useful for non-circular microlens arrays where the focal length of the lens was easily tunable by controlling the thermal annealing.

  • Twyman-Green interferometer is developed for assessment of IR optical system performance. Light source is $CO_2$ gas laser which has 10.6$\mu \textrm m$ wavelength. The light beam is expanded to 2.5 cm dia by Ge lens and splitted by ZnSe parallel plane plate. One of the beams is reflected by refernce mirror which is operated PZT. The fringe will be detected by a pyro-electric vidicon camera and displayed by a CRT monitor. Here, the IR firinge is recorded on the thermal paper. In visible region, the light source is He-Ne laser. The fringe is detected by a CCD camera and displayed by the CRT monitor. The intensity of the fringe is digitized by a image card and processed by a PC. The wavefront aberration function, PSF and OTF are calculated. The results are displayed in 3-D graphs on the monitor or printed out by a line printer.

  • A small-scale solar collector and tracking system, using a Fresnel lens of $0.5m^2$, and novel compact fluidized-bed solar receiver[FBR] of closed type has been developed for high temperature solar gas heating.

The present FBR's operated efficiently at extremely high temperatures in comparison with conventional solar receivers, composed of flat or tubular solid surfaces.

  • This study was carried out on DLC thin film deposition technology used in infrared optical system production as a method of reducing the shape changes of the molding core and the consequent loss of life. Experiments on the deposition on silicon wafer and tungsten carbide used as a substrate for molding core were conducted at each processing condition using a filtered arc system, and it was found that the surface and mechanical properties were of the greatest quality when the substrate bias voltage of -150 V was used. In addition, it was confirmed that the PV and Ra characteristics were improved by the deposition of the DLC thin film.

  • We have successfully fabricated high power (~20W) laser diode array, which are useful for pumping Nd:YAG lasers. The laser diode aray has 20 100.mu.m-wide cahnnels of which space was adjusted to 350.mu.m to improve thermal characteristics. And channel width is 100.mu.m. For an uncoated LD array, the output power of 15.66W has been obtained at 41A under quasi-CW operation, which results in about 0.42W/A slope efficiency. After aR(5%) and HR (95%) coatings on both facets, the output power was improved up to 21.18W at 40A under the same operation as above and the slope efficiency was 0.795W/A. On the other hand, by using a near field measurement system consisting of objective lens, eyepiece, CCD camera and image processing board, the typical near field patten of 1*20 LD array was observed.

  • Glassy carbon is widely used for high temperature melting process such as quartz due to its thermal stability. For utilizing Classy Carbon to glass mold press(GMP) optical lens, brittleness of Glassy Carbon is main obstacle of ultraprecision machining. Thus authors investigated ductile machining of Glassy Carbon adopting turning and grinding process respectively. From the experiments, ultraprecision turning surfaces resulted brittle crack in all machining conditions and ultraprecision grinding surfaces showed semi-ductile mode in small undeformed chip thickness conditions.

  • As an electron scanning microscopes has traditionally required a considerably large room equipped with several service and pipe lines due to its inherent size. As an alternative, a small sized SEM, simply called a mini-SEM, is introduced even if the performance in terms of magnification and resolution is a little inferior to a classical thermal SEM. However, the size and fabrication cost is dramatically reduced, dedicating to opening a new market. The optical system in the mini-SEM is redesigned and specimen stage is quitely reduced and vertical axis is excluded. The design tools and calibration techniques to develope the mini-SEM are introduced and its performance is verified through numerical analysis experiments.

  • ZnO nanowires were fabricated through thermal evaporation of Zn or ZnS powder using solar energy. The Zn or ZnS powder was heated and evaporated by sunlight. The sunlight was concentrated on the Zn or ZnS powder by a converging lens and then the Zn or ZnS powder was evaporated and oxidized in air. After oxidation, ZnO nanowires were fabricated in the focal point. Strong ultraviolet emission, which corresponds to the near band-edge emission, was observed from the ZnO nanowires synthesized using Zn powder as a source material. Meanwhile, green emission, related to intrinsic defects such as oxygen vacancies, prevailed for the ZnO nanowires fabricated using ZnS powder. No catalysts were used in the fabrication of the ZnO nanowires, which suggested the ZnO nanowires were grown by a vapor-solid mechanism.
