Abstract: A method for surface planarization of an object using a light source of a specific wavelength according to an embodiment includes: providing an object in a main chamber; injecting an etching gas into the main chamber; inputting the light source of a specific wavelength onto a surface of the object; and controlling a temperature of the object. According to the method, it is possible to minimize the side effects such as scratches or contamination of the sample that occur in a conventional chemical-mechanical planarization process. In addition, it is possible to allow precise planarization in nanometers (nm) and simultaneously perform planarization to a side surface of a device as well as a large-sized surface, thereby reducing cost and time required for the planarization process. Moreover, since the surface roughness and the electrical conductivity are improved, it is possible to increase the efficiency and output of the LED device.

Abstract: A test device for detecting and measuring distance to passive intermodulation (PIM) is disclosed. The test device may comprise a receiver to receive a signal from a test point of a distributed cell site comprising a remote radio head (RRH) and a baseband unit (BBU) separated and connected via an optical feeder. The test device may also comprise a processor to detect passive intermodulation (PIM) and measure distance to the PIM (internal or external). For example, the processor may replace downlink IQ data in the signal with two-tone waveform IQ data, transmit the two-tone waveform IQ data to the RRH, and to monitor uplink spectrum to detect PIM, where the uplink spectrum may comprise uplink IQ data from the RRH. The processor may also perform uplink spectrum analysis using radio frequency (RF) monitoring, measure a time delay for the two-tone waveform and the detected PIM, and calculate a distance to the PIM based on the time delay.
