EXPERIENCE:
09/95-Present
The University of Texas at Arlington, Department of Electrical Engineering, GRA
Performed researches related to grants of the Electro-Optics Research Center. Duties include grating diffraction analysis (RCWA : Rigorous coupled-wave analysis) computer code generation for various diffraction grating configurations, theoretical and experimental studies on grating anomalies (guided-mode resonance, surface plasmon resonance etc.), finding novel grating diffraction phenomena and applications, and their experimental verifications.

10/89-7/95
Agency for Defense Development (Daejeon, Korea), Anti-air guided-weapon systems division, Search and tracking systems group, System Engineer
Participated in prototyping a tactical surface-to-air guided missile system specialized on the search and tracking system (includes search radar, tracking radar and electro-optic tracking system). Worked on sensor performance analysis for upgrading the design, prototype system integration and test, field performance test, system maintenance and technical documentation for integrated logistics support (ILS).

09/86-05/89
The University of Texas at Arlington, Department of Electrical Engineering, GRA
Analysis (both approximate transmittance approach and exact rigorous coupled-wave analysis) and experiment of diffraction by surface-relief gratings with conic cross-sectional grating shape as novel high-efficiency, uniform-intensity beam dividers. Researches also include characterization of diffraction properties of high-spatial-frequency dielectric and metallic surface-relief gratings.
