  • Publication number: 20150306704
    Abstract: Disclosed are a gas-penetration film which is fabricated by processing grooves by irradiating a pulsed laser beam onto a moving film, an apparatus of fabricating the same, and a method of fabricating the same. A method of fabricating a gas-penetration film which irradiates a pulsed laser beam onto a moving film to continuously process grooves, includes splitting the pulsed laser beam; irradiating split pulsed laser beams onto the moving film at a constant interval to process multi-grooves; and controlling a movement speed of the moving film so as to repeatedly process a groove, which is adjacent to the groove processed by the split pulsed laser beam, by the pulsed laser beam. Therefore, the groove processings are repeatedly performed on the same groove to increase a depth of the groove.

  • Publication number: 20090052849
    Abstract: Disclosed are an optical fiber probe for side imaging and a method of manufacturing the same. An optical fiber probe according to an aspect of the invention includes a photonic crystal fiber, and an optical fiber lens that is formed by applying heat to a predetermined region including one end of the photonic crystal fiber and substantially removing air holes formed in the predetermined region. The optical fiber lens includes a light diffusion region that diffuses light propagating along a core of the photonic crystal fiber and focuses the light to enable side imaging, a reflector surface that reflects the light at a right angle to enable side imaging, and a lens surface that focuses the light. A small-sized optical fiber probe can be manufactured using a simple manufacturing process, and the optical fiber probe can be miniaturized. Therefore, a light measurement system can be miniaturized, which makes it possible to obtain side images of a very small sample, such as a blood vessel.

  • Publication number: 20030002522
    Abstract: In a CDMA (code division multiple access) digital receiver and an automatic gain control method thereof, when an RF-processed CDMA analog IF (intermediate frequency) signal is inputted, the analog IF signal is converted into a digital IF signal. The digital IF signal is then digital-demodulated, and a digital-demodulated base band signal is clipped so as to have a level of a digital base band signal preset in a CDMA system. Accordingly it is possible to perform a digital demodulation in a CDMA receiver. In addition, it is possible to perform the same automatic gain control as a CDMA analog receiver by receiving the same input signal (analog IF signal) as the CDMA analog receiver. As a result, the performance of a CDMA receiver is significantly improved.
