Abstract:
The Mirrors for Princes are administrative texts of ancient history. These texts, referred to by different names, are considered to be important because they have a function of projection, for rulers of the period. And their importance is not limited by this, because of its features. Since criticism and suggestions for the next ruler also shows the people's expectations, it is a reflection of the social and political characteristics of the period as well as texts. However, the Mirrors for Princes is not merely an object or the text to understand history or a period of time because these texts are elements of historical and social memory. From the text, written in the changing conditions and at different times, it can be understood that there were changing political and societal realities as well as unchanging elements. In this respect, the Mirrors for Princes can be considered not only an illumination of the past, staying in the dusty shelves of history, but also a relevant reflection that reaches to now. The main purpose of this study is to find out the secrets of leadership from this reflection. The main argument of this study is that this region has a historical code of the current leadership, which can be interpreted by the Mirrors for Princes. The backbone of the work depends on the interpretation and analysis of the Mirrors for Princes. This text was written in different times for different rulers; it raised powerful leaders from the Ottoman, Seljuk, Mongol, and Iranian societies. This research seeks to find out a different leader perception typology from commonalities despite social differences to different states and periodic variations. Considering that the Mirrors for Princes is an extensive literature, this study should be evaluated as a motivational tool for comprehensive successors.

AbstractDuring the reigns of the Safavid Shah ‘Abbās I and the Mughal Emperor Akbar, two chroniclers, one from each dynasty, included in their texts lists of “kingly virtues.” This paper explores the possible historiographical precedents for this section in the chronicles, and places particular emphasis on the “mirrors for princes” literature. The paper concludes with a suggestion that reading the narrative portions of the chronicles in light of the mirrors for princes literature helps us understand why chroniclers may have included certain information in those sections.

Abstract:
Conceived somewhat in the style of the 'Mirrors of Princes' tradition composed of educational tracts addressed to future monarchs dating back to the 9th century, these late sixteenth-century treatises of royal eloquence are intended to serve the Prince and edify his speech. For this reason, they invite examination as princely 'Institutions of Oratory'. The ideal portrait of the king, forever haunted by a general fear of conferring royalty upon an ass, is one of a 'learned and well-spoken' prince. Education and eloquence therefore constitute two royal virtues which allow the sovereign to distinguish himself from the people and render himself worthy of the admiration of all subjects. This primary relation between learning and eloquence taken as fundamental elements of royal power is the main concern of the present study and analysis. We shall examine the case of three 'rhetorics', composed for the use of Henry III with the intention of informing himself as a model of the 'well-spoken king'.

Abstract:
Mirrors of princes are a specific genre of Islamic literature dedicated to giving advice to rulers, princes, and ministers. There are few mirrors that are composed in verse. The Kutadgu Bilig is modeled on the Persian Shāhnāme of the poet Firdawsi making the Central Asian heritage of wisdom literature at home in Islamic contexts. The text is written in Qarakhanid Turkish; the form is a didactic poem set as a dialogue between the protagonists. In a Weberian sense the program of advice may be analyzed as rational leadership due to the increasing role of shari’a-based rulership. However, there are other elements of legitimacy in this text blurring the clear distictions made by Weber. Hence, we may identify it as a unique, non-European case of legitimation of rulership. The Kutadgu Bilig are to be read as an attempt to secure the continuation of the Central Asian tradition in a context dominated by Iranian influences into Central Asia. The protagoists of this work are the king, the vizier, the wise man, and the ascet. All these actors are representing virtues needed for successful rulership. At the same time the roles of all the persons associated with the court are discussed even very personal ones like choosing a wife and raising children.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse vise à expliquer l'évolution de l'image du prince, aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles, au travers notamment des transformations du concept de « miroir des princes ». Issu du symbolisme de l'objet-miroir en morale et de sa métaphorisation en politique comme objet de représentation de l'idéal vertueux, le terme « miroir des princes » a évolué jusqu'à désigner, durant la période médiévale, un genre de littérature adressée au représentant du régime politique monarchique. Le genre littéraire des miroirs des princes - difficile à définir et à établir selon des critères fixes - s'est vu remettre en cause au XVIe siècle par la pensée machiavélienne. D'un caractère idéal et idéel et forgée sur les bases vertueuses de la morale chrétienne, l'image du prince s'est transformée par son inscription dans la réalité des faits politiques et historiques. Il s'agit alors d'observer l'évolution de l'utilisation de la métaphore du miroir des princes ainsi que du concept théorique de représentation de l'image idéale du gouvernant, dans la littérature politique des XVIe et XVIIe siècles en France, jusqu'à l'invalidation de la figure vertueuse du prince par la réflexion des théoriciens de la souveraineté à l'époque moderne
This thesis aims to explain the evolution of the image of the prince in the 16th and 17th centuries, in particular through the transformations of the concept of the "mirror of princes". The term "mirror of princes", derived from the symbolism of the mirror-object in morality and its metaphorization in politics as an object of representation of the virtuous ideal, evolved to designate, during the medieval period, a kind of literature addressed to the representative of the monarchical political regime. The literary genre of "mirror of princes" - difficult to define and establish according to fixed criteria - was challenged in the 16th century by Machiavellian thought. Of an ideal character and forged on the virtuous foundations of Christian morality, the image of the prince has been transformed by its inscription in the reality of political and historical facts. It is then a question of observing the evolution of the use of the metaphor of the mirror of princes as well as the theoretical concept of representation of the ideal image of the ruler, in the political literature of the 16th and 17th centuries in France, until the invalidation of the virtuous figure of the prince by the reflection of the theorists of sovereignty in the modern era

Abstract:
This study focuses on the literary subgenre of Mirrors for Princes. A number of twelfth-century works from three genres of Old French literature are examined in order to ascertain what forms any didacticism takes, and whether the texts can be read as Mirrors for Princes. The three genres studied are epic, romance and pseudo-historical chronicle. From epic, I discuss La Chanson de Roland, Le Voyage de Charlemagne, La Chançun de Willame and Le Couronnement de Louis. Chrétien de Troyes forms the study of Mirrors for Princes in romance, and for pseudo-historical chronicle I examine Wace’s Roman de Brut. The didacticism present in the studied texts assumes two forms. The first is direct didacticism, in which the narrator or a character portrays an instruction or moral lesson through “speech”. This gives extra emphasis to the message, whether addressed directly to the audience or to another character within the narrative. The second form is indirect didacticism, which is more common in these texts. It consists of exemplary characters, their actions, behaviour and reputations. The Mirrors for Princes aspects of these texts provide not only examples of successful kings, but also of excellent vassals and queens. The mirrors for the women involve virtuous characteristics, where they fulfil their wifely and noble duties. They are addressed to regents and queens consort more so than to queens regnant, who were uncommon figures in the twelfth century. As well as providing examples and lessons on what is optimal behaviour for the ruling class, there are characters who supply examples of behaviour that is to be avoided. With these ignoble characters, common methods of transmitting the didactic messages are through their lasting reputation, the consequences of their actions, or the nature of their deaths. The study concludes that the examined texts can be read as Mirrors for Princes, despite most of them not being originally conceived as belonging to this subgenre. Lessons for vassals, noblemen and noblewomen, queens and kings are present to varying extents throughout these works using both forms of didacticism outlined above.

Abstract:
A presente dissertação se propôs a analisar quatro fabulários, tendo como fio condutor dessa escolha o Kalla e Dimna, fabulário árabe do século VIII d.C. Partindo desta obra, os estudos se orientaram tanto às suas origens, que remontam à compilação indiana Pañcatantra, datada do século I d.C. e que teve entrada no mundo árabe, bem como aos seus frutos, o Livro do tigre e do raposo e O leão e o chacal Mergulhador, dois fabulários árabes produzidos, respectivamente, nos séculos IX d.C., XI d.C. e XII d.C. e que tiveram, em relação aos anteriores, menor disseminação. Os dois primeiros fabulários tratam de uma série de temas que podem atender às normas mais gerais de decoro na sociedade, sendo que o Pañcatantra chega até mesmo a ser classificado como um tratado sobre a conduta em manuais de literatura sânscrita. Entre esses temas diversos, é notável o espaço privilegiado dado às relações políticas e aos seus trâmites. Os outros dois livros, embora inseridos na mesma tradição, deixam de lado aspectos mais gerais da convivência e passam a se deter apenas nos temas especificamente políticos. No que se refere a esse assunto em comum, é possível perceber uma série de elementos recorrentes nos quatro fabulários, entre eles, o fato de que todos tratam das vicissitudes das relações entre poder e saber, personificada em personagens-tipo que ora se aproximam, ora se afastam, mas que se mantém atrelados a uma estrutura que os molda conforme os resultados que almeja atingir. Além disso, foram estudadas as estruturas que, no caso, se apoiam na maior parte das vezes em narrativas-quadro ou prólogos-moldura a partir dos quais se desenvolvem subnarrativas e outros elementos que nos possibilitaram, ao término do estudo, apontar o que há de particular na universalidade a que se propõem os fabulários.
This dissertation aims to analyze four collections of fables, choosing as the central work from which further analysis will stem the Kalla and Dimna, an Arab collection of fables dating from the VIII century A.D. From this starting point, these studies were furthered by revisiting its origins in the Panchatantra, an Indian compilation of fables from the I century A.D. that left its marks on the Arab world, as well as its developments in the books that directly follow its legacy, the Livro do tigre e do raposo and O leão e o chacal Mergulhador, two arab collections of fables dating, respectively, to the IX century A.D. and the XI and XII century A.D. which had, however, far less dissemination than the last two works here cited. The first two collections develop around a variety of subjects relating to rules regulating manners in a broader sense, to the point that the Panchatantra has been classified as a treatise on manners in Sanskrit literature manuals. Between the diversity of subjects broached, the privileged attention given to political relations and their formalities is readily noticeable. The two other works, though part of the same literary tradition, set aside more general or day-to-day aspects of good manners to focus exclusively on political relations and political conduct. Regarding this shared thematic, a number of recurring elements can be identified, one of many being the fact that all of them deal with the specifics of the relationship stabilished between power and knowledge, personified in character types that alternate between approaching and distancing themselves from one another, but that are always attached to a structure that moulds them according to the results it desires. Beyond that, the narrative structures of the works were studied they usually make use of frame narratives or frame prologues from which further subnarratives are developed along with other elements that made it possible, at the end of this study, to point towards the particularities of the universality that the collections of fables undertake as their purpose.

Le discours des vices et des vertus est une étude qui porte sur la définition des notions de bien et de mal, de droit et d’interdit dans le cadre de la renouatio carolingienne, débutée sous le règne de Charlemagne et poursuivit sous ses successeurs, puis redynamisée sous le règne des Ottoniens. Les genres littéraires et artistiques où apparaissent les allégories des vices et des vertus constituent un corpus très varié de sources (judiciaire, morale, iconographique…). La diversité des sources permet de faire émerger la définition d’un idéal permettant de conduire l’homme à son salut, tout en mettant en place des codes moraux et une norme qui permettent d’encadrer la société dans tous les domaines

Abstract:
En accord avec mes intérêts scientifiques, j’ai décidé, dans le cadre de ce travail doctoral, d’étudier un corpus correspondant règne de Sanche IV, roi de Castille et du León de 1284 à 1295, et constitué des quatre œuvres suivantes qui, à l'instar du Sendebar ou du Calila e Dimna antérieurs, exploitent toutes les ressources de l'exemplum afin d'enseigner certes mais aussi de captiver le lecteur : El Libro del Tesoro, El Lucidario, El libro del consejo e de los consejeros et Los Castigos de Sancho IV. Bien que chacun de ces livres ait été l’objet d’études ponctuelles intéressantes, ce groupement de textes n’avait, jusqu’à présent, bénéficié d’aucune grande étude monographique et appelait donc une analyse approfondie. Ces quatre ouvrages, d’origine spatiale et temporelle différente, se sont construits selon les mentalités et les pratiques de l’époque, c’est-à-dire en réutilisant, en retravaillant la matière des sources par des ajouts, des corrections, des suppressions en fonction des visées de l’auteur ou du promoteur de l’œuvre. Cette réappropriation des sources et des modèles correspond à une finalité plus ou moins évidente ou avouée, notamment si l’on en juge à l’aune du « molinisme », pensée politique du début du XIVe siècle. Les œuvres de cette période sont, en effet, soit écrites soit commanditées par le roi ou la régente, Marie de Molina. En outre, on connaît suffisamment le rôle joué par l’Archevêque de Tolède et l’importance de la pensée religieuse dans la constitution et la consolidation du « molinisme », pour parier sur l’existence d’un discours renvoyant à l’éthique chrétienne, à la morale ou à la philosophie. J’ai donc analysé la nature du projet moral, religieux et politique qui sous-tend cette littérature sapientielle. L’analyse des textes du corpus prend en compte, dans un premier temps, la structure des ouvrages et du cadre narratif, afin de définir la voix auctoriale, c’est-à-dire celle qui choisit sources et modèles et se les réapproprie : il s’agit de mettre en lumière un mode de pensée spécifique et des intentions particulières. Dans un deuxième temps, j’ai confronté ces textes aux contextes, notamment historique, si prégnant pendant le règne de Sanche IV et la régence, pour en extraire le sens politique et idéologique, moral, religieux ou philosophique. Enfin, une des finalités de ce travail de thèse est de comprendre comment, à partir de la réécriture des sources, traités, écrits religieux, auteurs classiques, exempla… s’est réalisé ce que l’on doit considérer comme un renouvellement de la production sapientielle. La thèse permet, grâce à une confrontation croisée entre histoire et littérature, de dégager l’évolution de la littérature sapientielle médiévale en castillan, et, parallèlement, de mettre en lumière la vision culturelle et morale, politique et sociétale promue par le roi Sanche IV et soutenue ensuite par Marie de Molina
In line with my centres of scientific interest, I have decided to examine a corpus corresponding to the reign of Sancho IV, namely El Libro del Tesoro, El Lucidario, El libro del consejo e de los consejeros and Los Castigos of Sancho IV. Although interesting individual studies have been produced on each of these books, the collation of the four texts has not hitherto benefited from any in-depth monographic study. These four works, all of different origin in time and space, were put together according to the mind-sets and practices of the time, by revisiting the source material by means of additions, corrections and deletions according to the author’s intentions. Such reworking of the sources and models corresponds to a more or less self-evident or openly admitted purpose, given that these works were either written or commissioned by the king. It is therefore essential to question the nature of the political project underlying this sapential literature. The initial analysis of the texts takes account of their structure and narrative framework in order to define the voice of the author, that is to say who chooses and takes on the relevant sources and models. Secondly, these texts need to be set against their context, especially their historical context, in order to highlight their political, ideological, moral, religious or philosophical meaning. Finally, one of the aims of this thesis is to understand how, as from the-re-writing of the sources, treatises, scriptures, classic authors and other exempla, what can be considered as a renewal of sapiential or wisdom literature actually came about. Thanks to such a cross-matching of history and literature, the thesis should evidence the evolution of sapential literature and throw light upon the cultural, moral, political and social vision promulgated by king Sancho IV and upheld by Maria de Molina

Abstract:
The ever-increasing need for higher bandwidth and density is one of the motivations for extensive research on planar optoelectronic structures on printed circuit board (PCB) substrates. Among these applications, optical interconnects have received considerable attention in the last decade. Several optical interconnect techniques, such as free space, guided wave, board level and fiber array interconnects, have been introduced for system level applications. In all planar optoelectronic systems, optical waveguides are crucial elements that facilitate signal routing. Low propagation loss, high reliability and manufacturability are among the requirements of polymer optical waveguides and polymer passive devices on PCB substrates for practical applications. Besides fabrication requirements, reliable characterization tools are needed to accurately and nondestructively measure important guiding properties, such as waveguide propagation loss. In three-dimensional (3D) fully embedded board-level optical interconnects, another key challenge is to realize efficient optical coupling between in-plane waveguides and out-of-plane laser/detector devices. Driven by these motivations, the research presented in this thesis focuses on some fundamental studies of optical interconnects for PCB substrates, e.g., developing low-loss optical polymer waveguides with integrated efficient out-of-plane couplers for optical interconnects on printed circuit board substrates, as well as the demonstration of a novel free-space optical interconnect system by using a volume holographic thin film. Firstly, the theoretical and experimental investigations on the limitations of using mercury i-line ultraviolet (UV) proximity photolithography have been carried out, and the metallization techniques for fine copper line formation are explored. Then, a new type of low-loss polymer waveguides (i.e., capped waveguide) is demonstrated by using contact photolithography with considerable performance improvement over the conventional waveguides. To characterize the propagation properties of planar optical waveguides, a reliable, nondestructive, and real-time technique is presented based on accurately imaging the scattered light from the waveguide using a sensitive charge coupled device (CCD) camera that has a built-in integration functionality. To provide surface normal light coupling between waveguides and optoelectronic devices for optical interconnects, a simple method is presented here to integrate 45° total internal reflection micro-mirrors with polymer optical waveguides by an improved tilted beam photolithography (with the aid of de-ionized water) on PCBs. A new technique is developed for a thin layer of metal coating on the micro-mirrors to achieve higher reflection and coupling efficiency (i.e., above 90%). The combination of the capped waveguide technique and the improved tilted UV exposure technique along with a hard reusable metal mask for metal deposition eliminates the usage of the traditional lift-off process, greatly simplifies the process, and reduces fabrication cost without sacrificing the coating quality. For the study of free-space optical interconnects, a simple system is presented by employing a single thin-film polymeric volume holographic element. One 2-spherical-beam hologram is used to link each point light source with the corresponding photodetector. An 8-channel free-space optical interconnect system with high link efficiency is demonstrated by using a single volume holographic element where 8 holograms are recorded.

Abstract:
Il incombe au souverain d’apporter la prospérité, il est ainsi à même de lever un impôt dont le produit lui permet d’entretenir une armée affectée à la défense du royaume. Si rien ne vient en enrayer la course ce mécanisme vertueux, ce Cercle de justice, a vocation à se reproduire à l’infini. Le cercle est omniprésent dans les Miroirs des princes iraniens des XIe et XIIe siècles et deux de leurs plus éminents spécimens, le Sīyar al-Molūk et le Naṣīḥat al-Molūk saisissent dans l’ère sassanide une période où les souverains, élus de Dieu et habités par la justice, sont institués en modèles. Les enchaînements subsumés par le cercle sont en réalité bien antérieurs à la période sassanide et, pour nous en tenir à Hammurabi de Babylone (1792-1750 av. J.-C.), le « code » qui lui est associé le présente en souverain appelé par les dieux pour, pasteur, apporter prospérité et protection au troupeau dont il a la charge. Dans cette longue histoire du cercle le rôle des Sassanides n’aura pas été négligeable puisqu’il leur serait revenu de pérenniser les objectifs qui leur étaient assignés (prospérité et protection) par le moyen du trésor royal ou de l’impôt. Se résumerait-il à un produit de l’idéologie royale le cercle mérite examen en ce qu’il témoigne précisément de l’époque, des époques, qui l’ont vu invoqué en principe de gouvernement. Notre recherche s’est ainsi proposée d’identifier les références au Cercle de justice au cours de l’ère sassanide, de les resituer dans leurs environnements religieux, politiques et sociaux et d’en cerner la portée, avant d’en suivre les évolutions dans l’espace iranien au cours des premiers siècles de l’Islam jusqu’à peu avant l’invasion mongole, soit au total sur une période de plus de 9 siècles
It is the sovereign’s responsibility to bring prosperity, thus he is able to raise a tax, the proceeds of which enable him to maintain an army assigned to the defense of the kingdom. If nothing comes to stop the race this virtuous mechanism, this Circle of Justice, has a vocation to reproduce infinitely. The circle is omnipresent in the Iranian Mirrors of princes of the 11th and 12th centuries, and two of their most eminent specimens, the Sīyar al-Molūk and the Naṣīḥat al-Molūk capture in the Sasanid era a period when the rulers, elected by God and inhabited by justice, are instituted as models. The subsumed sequences of the circle actually predate the Sassanid period and, to keep us at Hammurabi of Babylon (1792-1750 BC), the “code” associated with it as a sovereign called by the gods to, pastor, bring prosperity and protection to the herd in his care. In this long history of the circle the role of the Sasanids will not have been negligible since it would have been their return to perpetuate the objectives assigned to them (prosperity and protection) through the royal treasury or tax. Would it be a product of royal ideology the circle deserves examination in that it testifies precisely to the time, the eras, which saw it invoked in principle of government. Our research thus proposed to identify references to the Circle of Justice during the Sasanid era, to re-establish them in their religious, political and social environments and to identify their scope, before following its evolutions in Iranian space during the first centuries of Islam until shortly before the Mongol invasion, a total of more than 9 centuries

Abstract:
When Russian Empress Catherine the Great (1729–1796) wrote allegorical fairy tales and educational materials for her grandsons, as well as an audience of Russian children, she actively partook in transnational traditions, finding inspiration and models in genres that fluidly crossed geographical boundaries in the eighteenth century. Comparing Catherine’s writings for children both nationally and transnationally with other mirrors for princes intended to guide young rulers, allegorical fairy tales in exotic settings, and broader enlightening projects of the time, reveals how her works hybridise different genres and transnational sources of inspiration to create something new and never seen before in Russia. At the same time, the example of Catherine’s writings also exemplifies how writings for a child become literature for children.

Abstract:
Abstract Micro-mirrors and other hinged microstructures have numerous MEMS applications. Such micro-mirrors can be used in laser-interferometry, laser beam modulation, fiber-optical switching, laser scanners and printers and a variety of other optical applications. A pop-up mirror device is proposed which consist of a hinged polysilicon mirror mounted on a silicon substrate. The folding mirror, with one fixed hinge and two floating hinges, is designed such that the mirror is lifted off the substrate by the linear movement of a shaft from an actuating system. The assembly uses a simple three-layer process such as MUMPS (Multi User MEMS Process). The fixed hinge is constructed in all three structural layers. The mirror lifting arm and the mirror arm are designed in both the second and the third structural layers and the floating hinge, linking them, is formed by cross members of the second and third structural layers. The motion of the mirror for different mirror lengths was simulated. Based on these predictions the geometry of the mirror was determined and then the components were simulated for various mechanical loads. The initial simulations of the device involved analyzing the stresses and displacements of the mirror and the mirror lift arm. The stress on the components was found to be acceptable for preliminary fabrication prototyping.

Abstract:
A scan lens for a laser printer system consists of an F-θ lens and a scanning element, typically a polygon mirror. Due to mechanical wobble and facet-to-facet misalignment, a polygon mirror tends to steer the focused beam out of the intended scan line and therefore requires some form of optical compensation. The most common method1 makes use of anamorphic optical elements. Traditionally, lenses based on this approach contain either a toroidal surface or a reflective cylindrical field lens, both of which are relatively expensive. It is possible to use a diffractive surface to replace the need for either of these surface types. Non-toroidal hybrid scan lenses have been discussed previously2,3. These designs were limited to rotationally-symmetric geometries and therefore could not be used with polygon mirrors. This paper discusses the design, fabrication, and testing of a prototype diffractive scan lens for a 600 dpi laser printer system.

Abstract:
The integration of transparent electro-dynamic screen (EDS) on the front surface of solar mirrors and glass cover plates of photovoltaic panels has a strong potential to significantly reduce the frequency of water-based cleaning needed to mitigate losses from dust depositions present in arid regions. The objective of our research was to develop and evaluate prototype transparent EDS-integrated mirrors and solar panels for their self-cleaning functions, with an aim to keep the collectors clean at a low cost without water or manual labor. This paper focuses on the design, fabrication, and laboratory evaluation of a prototype EDS integrated second surface mirrors and solar panels. The EDS consists of a set of parallel transparent electrodes screen-printed on the optical surface and embedded in a thin transparent dielectric film. By applying three-phase, low current, low frequency high voltage-pulses to the electrodes, electro-dynamic repulsion forces and a traveling wave are created for removing dust particles from the surface of the collectors. Design and construction of an environmental test chamber to simulate different atmospheric conditions of semi-arid and arid areas with respect to temperature, RH, and dust deposition conditions are briefly described. A non-contact specular reflectometer was designed, constructed and calibrated for measuring specular reflection efficiency of the mirrors. Laboratory evaluation of the performance of the EDS-integrated collectors was completed using humidity controlled environment test chamber where the prototype mirrors and panels were examined for their self-cleaning action. In each experiment, the solar collectors were loaded with dust until the specular reflectance of the test mirror or the short circuit current of the panel showed a significant decrease. The EDS was then operated for one minute and the relative output was recorded. The results show that the specular reflectivity of EDS mirrors and the short circuit current of the EDS panels can be restored by more than 90% of the values measured under the clean conditions.

Abstract:
Motor-driven polygon mirror scanners are commonly used for beam deflection in laser printers, digital copy machines, bar code readers, laser micrometers, etc. The performance of scanners highly effects the positioning accuracy of laser beam and thus the performance of OA equipment. In practice, the stability of laser scanners is determined by the accuracy of polygon mirror and its drive. At present, in low profile, low cost compact scanners, a motor-driven polygon mirror scanner with built-in drive control circuit is used, and its stability is estimated by the dynamic characteristics measurement equipment.
