Germanium, aluminum, and stainless-steel plates were irradiated with a pulsed CO2-laser beam (10.6μm) focused to be 0.1 mm in diameter, and resulting optical acoustic signals were measured with a PZT piezoelectric element. Results indicate that deposits on the surface and internal damage can be detected from the signal magnitude and phase angle, effectively by using repetitivefrequencies more than 100 Hz.

Surface plasmons are electromagnetic waves localized and propoagating along metal-dielectric interfaces. They can be excited by a p-polarized light in an attenuated total reflection geometry. The surface plasmon resonance can be used in laser microscopy that provides two dimensional maps of refractive index and/or thickness of samples with very high sensitivity. Spatial light modulators using the surface plasmon resonance are also described.

Inspection and failure analysis of large-scale integrated circuits (LSI) have become a critical issue, as there is an increasing demand for quality and reliability in LSIs. Recently, we have proposed a laser THz emission microscope (LTEM) for inspecting electrical failures in LSIs, which detects the THz emission from LSIs by scanning them with femtosecond laser pulses. We successfully obtained the THz emission image of MOSFETs without bias voltage. We also measured MOSFETs in which the connection lines from the electrodes to the p-n junctions were interrupted, and found that the polarity of the temporal waveform of the THz emission from the pn junction in damaged MOSFETs has the opposite sign compared to that in normal MOSFETs. This result indicates that the LTEM can be used for the inspection of MOSFETs without bias voltage, which is attractive for the testing of semiconductor devices during the manufacturing process.

Technique for synthesis of the ZnO nanowires by Nanoparticle-Assisted Pulsed-Laser Deposition (NAPLD) and the characterization of their optical property are described. Vertically-aligned ZnO nanowires were successfully grown on sapphire substrates by NAPLD without any catalyst. The surface density of the nanowires on the substrate was controlled by changing the laser irradiation conditions, such as an energy and a repetition rate. When a nanowire was excited by the third harmonic of a Q-switched Nd: YAG laser, the stimulated emission due to a micro-cavity effect in single nanowire was observed with a lasing threshold of about 400 kW/cm2, indicating high crystalinity of ZnO nanowires.

A small aperture or antenna can confine electromagnetic radiation to dimensions far smaller than the wavelength. Scanning such a structure in close proximity to an object can yield microscopic images with correspondingly high resolution. The benefit of using microwaves and millimeter-waves in scanning near-field microscopy lies in the promise of new types of material contrast. A good example is the mapping of electronic transport properties. In this review an overview of scanning near-field microwave, millimeter-wave, and submillimeter-wave microscopy is presented, a millimeter-wave microscope system using a slit-type probe is described in detail, and the application of this microscope for the visualization of photo-excited free carriers in a silicon substrate is demonstrated.

Principle and medical applications of photoacoustic diagnosis are reviewed. Photoacoustic diagnosis involves both advantages of optical and ultrasonic measurements, by which deep-located tissue can be diagnosed or imaged with a high spatial resolution. Applications to diagnosis of pigmented skin diseases, real-time monitoring of laser cyclophotocoagulation, detection of early cancer, functional brain imaging are described.

On the basis of our research, this report describes the recent progress on mirrorless laser action induced by photonic band-gaps (PBGs) of chiral liquid crystals (CLCs). Liquid crystal compounds with molecular chirality self-organize the supramolecular helical structure by their twisting power. Therefore, we can observe the selective reflection band regarding as 1-D PBG. When the fluorescent dye-doped CLC is optically excited with a linearly polarized beam, the laser emission appears at the chiral 1-D PBG edge (s) of CLC hosts. The optically pumped laser emission shows circularly polarized characteristic, even though the excitation beam is linearly polarized. Applying voltages to the optically pumped CLC cells enables reversible switching of the laser action as a result of changes in the supramolecular helical structure of CLC host. Moreover, we succeed in the phototunable laser emission from the photosensitive CLC.

A practical OCT imaging system for ophthalmology became commercially available only five years after the first demonstration of OCT. OCT is thus an epoch-making technique in optics. In such development of the practical OCT system, however, Japanese researchers have been played second fiddle to the research groups in United States, although both basic concept and patent for OCT were proposed for the first time by Japanese researchers. Very recently, the domestic research activities for OCT increased remarkably, because it is necessary to develop many key technologies before OCT is widely applied for clinical diagnoses in the near future. At the present stage, OCT has several shortcomings and technical problems to be solved before its wide application for clinical diagnoses. In this paper, the description is focused on the present status of OCT in Japan as well as development of key technologies for the future OCT.

In recent broadband photonic network system, high speed optical data transmission is required. Electrooptic (EO) polymers are attractive because of their large nonlinearity, fast response time and ease of device fabrication. Therefore the EO polymers are expected for the application of ultra-high speed EO switch and/or wide bandwidth EO modulator, both of which will be used in future photonic network. In this report, recent progress of EO polymers and their application to waveguide type devices are described.

The colloidal crystallization of fine particles is a phenomenon of great interest in connection with the research on the fabrication of photonic crystals. This paper describes a newly proposed method, in which self-arrangement and self-assembly of particles are generated under radiation force, i.e. gradient and scattering forces, and capillary force, respectively. The hexagonal structure in the Fourier-transformed patterns of 2D colloidal crystals shows that the triangular lattice structure is successfully fabricated by the proposed method. This paper is concerned with the principle of newly proposed method, capturing and self-arranging particles by radiation pressure, self-assembling particles by the desiccation process, the enlarging of colloid crystal, and the verification of the triangular lattice structure.
