In this paper, we evaluated the effect with respect to the light of 700-1,100 nm NIR(near infrared radiation) for spectrophotometer. Standard, red, yellow, green and blue color paper which was Munsell color paper were used for experiments. Our used light is incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp, invert fluorescent lamp and combined lamp. Each color paper was measured 20 times. Therefore we concluded that it is possible to build a spectrophotometer for NIR(near infrared radiation) measurement we applied an spectrophotometer to measurement system in incandescent lamp.

Semiconductor-based photocatalysts can only be activated with ultraviolet or visible light due to their intrinsic bandgap, and they cannot use the energy in the near-infrared region, which accounts for about 50% of solar energy. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of the semiconductor photocatalyst, it is necessary to utilize more solar energy in a broad band ranging from ultraviolet to near-infrared. Combining upconversion nanoparticles with semiconductor photocatalysts for near-infrared absorption have thus been reported. Upconversion nanoparticles can sequentially absorb multiple near-infrared photons and convert them into ultraviolet or visible to activate photocatalysts. In addition, by coupling the semiconductor photocatalyst and the upconversion nanoparticles with the plasmonic metal nanoparticles, the photocatalytic activity can be further improved. This review summarizes the recent studies on improving the photocatalytic performance with near-infrared absorption by using upconversion nanoparticles.

최근, 대외적으로 기후변화협약 등 환경에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 국내에서도 온실가스 배출이 큰 에너지의 22.3%를 소비하고 있는 건축물로 인한 환경부하에 관심이 높아지며 고효율 창호의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 기존의 Low-E (저방사) 유리는 적외선을 반사시켜 단열 유리로서 겨울철에 유리하지만, 건물 전면에 약 50~95% 창호가 사용되는 office 건물에는 여름철 냉방에너지를 많이 사용하기 때문에 단열뿐만 아니라 일사 차폐가 가능한 근적외선 차폐유리가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 Low-E 유리의 문제점인 근적외선 투과문제를 해결하기 위한 기술로서 근적외선 영역을 선택적으로 차폐할 수 있는 박막코팅 물질(흡수체, 반사체) 및 Low-E 대체용 Themochromic 등 나노 박막을 RF magnetron sputtering으로 제조하여 복층유리 구조로 조합해 UV-visible을 측정하였으며 IR Lamp와 태양광 아래에서 온도변화 실험을 진행하였다. 그 결과, 기존 Low-E 복층유리 대비 본 실험에서 사용한 복층유리의 근적외선 차폐효율이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

In space exploration, spectroscopic observation is useful for understanding objects' composition and physical properties. There are various methods for analyzing spectral data, and there are differences depending on the object and the wavelength. This paper introduces a method for analyzing visible & nearinfrared (VNIR) spectral data, which is mainly applied in lunar exploration. The main analysis methods include false color ratio image processing, reflectance pattern analysis, integrated band depth (IBD) processing, and continuum removal as preprocessing before analysis. These spectroscopic analysis methods help to understand the mineral properties of the lunar surface in the VNIR region and can be applied to other celestial bodies such as Mars.

Fluorescence imaging is widely used to image cells or small animals due to its high temporal and spatial resolution. Because conventional fluorescence imaging uses visible light, the penetration depth of light within the tissue is low, phototoxicity may occur due to visible light, and the detection sensitivity is lowered due to interference by background autofluorescence. In order to overcome this limitation, long-wavelength light should be used, and fluorescence imaging using near-infrared-I (NIR-I) in the region of 700~900 nm has been developed. To further improve imaging quality, researchers are interested in using a longer wavelength light, near-infrared-II (NIR-II) ranging from 1000 to 1700 nm. In the NIR-II region, light scattering is further minimized, and the penetration depth of light in the tissue is improved up to about 10 mm, and autofluorescence of the tissue is reduced, enabling high sensitivity and resolution fluorescence imaging. In this review, among various NIR-II fluorescence imaging probes, inorganic nanoparticle-based probes with excellent photostability and easily tunable emission wavelength were described, focusing on single-walled carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, and lanthanide nanoparticles.

Time-encoded near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system is proposed, based on a near-infrared (NIR) swept laser source, for comparison to the conventional NIRS method using a detector-type spectrometer. The cavity of the NIR swept laser source consists of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) with a gain region around 800 nm, and several fiber-optic components. To change the output wavelength in time using an applied electric radio-frequency signal, an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) is introduced in the fiber ring cavity configuration. To demonstrate the feasibility of an NIR swept laser source for NIRS imaging, the spectroscopic comparison of two kinds of absorbance-measuring systems a detector-type spectrometer using a white light source, and a source-type spectrometer using an NIR swept laser is successfully performed with an NIR-absorbing dye.

Near-infrared (NIR) absorbing dyes have been applied to various applications such as optical filters, biotechnology, energy storage and conversion, coating additive, and traditionally information-storage materials. Because image sensors used in cellphones and digital cameras have sensitivity in the NIR region, the NIR cut-off filter is essential to achieving more clear images. As energy storage and conversion have been important, diverse NIR absorbing materials have been developed to extend the absorption region to the NIR region, and NIR absorbing materials-based research has proceeded to improve device performances. Adding NIR-absorbing dye with a photo-thermal effect to a self-healable coating system has been attractive for future mobility technology, and more effective self-healing properties have been reported. In this report, the chemical structures of representative NIR-absorbing dyes and state of the art research based on NIR-absorbing dyes are introduced.

광은 식물의 광합성 작용뿐만 아니라 조직이나 기관의 분화, 종자의 발달 등 식물의 형태형성에도 관여하는 중요한 요인 중 하나이다. 불량한 광환경조건 하에서는 작물의 생육부진 뿐만 아니라 다양한 생리장해 및 병발생 등을 유발하기 때문에 경제적으로 광효율을 증가시키기 위하여 적절한 시설구조를 채택해야 한다. 또한 작물의 생육과 품질을 향상시키기 위하여 보광 및 차광 등 광환경 관리기술 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서 도입한 적외선램프는 새로운 인공광원으로서 태양광과 80% 정도 유사하고 용도에 따라 근적외선, 중적외선 및 원적외선이 방사되도록 할 수 있으며, 적은 전력소모량과 발생되는 열원은 겨울철 온풍난방기를 보조하거나 대체할 수 있어 에너지 절감효과를 동시에 기대할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 인공광원에 대한 기초연구로서 인공광원의 종류별 분광특성을 비교 분석하고, 일몰 후 적외선램프의 조사 시간이 배추와 상추 유묘의 생장에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 실시하였다.

Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy(NIRS) is accepted as today's most versatile method for rapid chemical analysis. The technique offers rapid multicomponent analysis. This study was conducted to improve the efficiency of quality analysis in covered barley grain, and to search for the effects of chemical components variation in covered barley grain on NIRS. Among the three groups with different range in the contents, each equation for starch contents increased standard error of prediction(SEP) and increased correlation coefficient from 0.872 to 0.883. According as, $\beta$-glucan and protein contents decreased SEP and increased correlation coefficient by expanded chemical components variation. Effective equation for ash contents analysis was obtained from group 3. Among the covered barley chemical components, starch and ash contents were required to conduct futher studies in term of accuracy and variation of contents. It was concluded that NIRS method would be applicable for the rapid determination of $\beta$-glucan and protein contents in covered barley grains.
