Discomfort Glare from the artificial light sources is an important issue in assessment of lighting quality for healthy buildings. Glare, as a factor of the characteristics of brightness, which has been defined as the sensation produced by contrast and luminance within an entire field view, unfavorably influences the occupants who performs visual tasks. It may cause annoyance and discomfort by interruption of visibility. In the whole visual field, glare can be determined by effects of the position, the luminance and the size of the light source and brightness of the surroundings. Therefore, experimental equipment is required to maintain a constant visual lighting environment. Recent studies have been developed and used the instrument for glare sensation evaluation but the instruments showed some difficulties to verify the correlation of glare indicators. The instrument have been developed with reference to former studies. It is called the Glare Tester. This is consist of 2[m]-diameter vertical dome screen painted with white flat paint, and light sources installed inside the screen. These light sources can provide various range of brightness at any inner surface of the screen. 2 Glare light sources can provide the value of luminance within the range of $0{\sim}150,000[cd/m^2]$. Moreover, 12 light sources are used for background luminance and it can perform the value of luminance within the range of $0{\sim}350[cd/m^2]$. Several experiments have been conducted using this Glare Tester to evaluate the range of the visibility, the values of BCD and the glare sensation in lower and upper visual field.

후막 EL소자는 연속동작 중에 발광특성이 저하되는 특징을 가진다. 본 연구는 상온과 $70^{\circ}C$, 상대 습도 100% 환경에서 후막 EL소자를 100V, 400Hz의 전원을 인가한 후 휘도 변화를 측정 및 비교하였다. 또한 열화된 시료의 표면 및 측면 주사 전자 현미경 사진을 통해 열화 부분을 관찰하였다. 측정된 휘도와 열화 메카니즘을 통해 sulfur vacancy와 deep traps 농도 시뮬레이션을 활용하였다. 후막 EL소자의 발광 특성은 주변의 온도 및 습도에 의해 크게 저하됨을 확인하였다.

최근 LCD 노트북 제품의 고유한 특정인 경박단소가 요구되면서, 백라이트의 박형화로 인해 광원으로써 램프의 세경화에 대한 개발도 진행되고 있다. 특히, 노트북용 램프의 경우 발열이 심해 도광판을 비롯한 시트류의 주름현상이 발생하며, 수명연장을 위해서 전극의 표면적이 넓거나 일함수(work functuon)가 작은 재질의 개발이 필요하다. 따라서 노트북용으로 저발열, 장수명을 위한 램프를 개발하고 있으며, 본 연구에서도 기존 Ni 전극을 사용한 램프 대비 Nb, Mo, Ta 전극을 사용했을때 통일한 구동조건에서 103%의 휘도특성 개선을 확인할 수 있었고 수명면에서도 기존 Ni 전극 대비 일함수가 낮은 Nb, Mo, Ta 전극을 사용한 램프의 경우 시간경과에 따른 휘도저하가 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

The tendency of the miximum brightness of $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu phosphor with various activator concentration, by different surface treatment methods as well as different exciting energies were investigated. The surface treatment methods were the adsorption method used $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$powder prepared emulsion-drying process and the precipitation method used FeSO$_4$/ethanol. Eu concentration of maximum brightness of $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu phosphor prepared by solid-solid state was changed with various exciting energies. The concentrations were 0.02 mol at VUV(147 nm) as well as 400 V and 0.03 mol at 5 kV. The phosphor treated both by adsorption method and precipitation method showed decreasing luminescent intensity with increasing amount of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$, and the methods are chosen by exciting energy. Adsorption method was effective in a low voltage and VUV(147nm) region, and precipitation method was effective in the high voltage region.

유기발광소자는 저전력, 고휘도 및 빠른 응답속도와 넓은 시야각 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 소형 디스플레이 및 대형 디스플레이로 상용화하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 고분자 유기발광소자는 저분자 유기발광소자에 비하여 용액공정을 사용하여 저비용으로 대면적 디스플레이를 제작하기 유리하기 때문에 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 하지만, 고분자 유기발광 소자는 구동 전압이 높고 발광효율이 낮은 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 유기발광 소자의 구동전압 감소와 발광효율을 증가 시키기 위해 정공주입층을 가진 적색 고분자 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 정공주입층을 포함하는 고분자 유기발광소자는 Indium thin oxide (ITO)위에 정공주입층 형성 후 스핀코팅 방법으로 poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiopene): poly (styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS)을 정공수송층으로, poly (2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexoxy)-1,4-phenylence vinylene) (MEH-PPV)를 발광층으로 적층하고, Al을 음극 전극으로 진공 증착하여 소자를 제작하였다. 정공주입층의 특성 분석을 위해 정공주입층의 투과도와 ITO/PEDOT:PSS와 ITO/정공주입층/PEDOT:PSS의 표면을 원자힘 현미경으로 측정하였다. 정공주입층의 가시광선 영역 투과도는 90% 이상으로 높게 나왔으며, ITO/정공주입층/PEDOT:PSS의 경우 ITO/PEDOT:PSS 보다 표면 거칠기가 감소하였다. 높은 가시광선 영역 투과도와 낮은 표면 거칠기는 발광층으로 정공주입을 원활하게 하여 소자의 발광 효율이 증가한다. 정공주입층을 포함하는 적색 고분자 유기발광소자의 경우 전류밀도-전압, 휘도-전압의 관계에서 정공주입층을 사용하지 않은 소자에 비하여 높은 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 나타났다.

플라스마 디스플레이는 패널내부에 진공상태를 요구하며 작동 중에 발생하는 불순가스에 의해 진공도가 떨어져 소자 수명, 휘도, 방전 개시 전압 등 많은 부분에 문제를 야기시킨다. 이에 불순가스 발생의 원인을 규명하기 위해 PDP에 상용적으로 사용되는 유연 유전체를 이용하여 열적 거동에 의해 불순가스 발생과 고 진공에서의 표면 조도를 분석하였다. $100^{\circ}$에서부터 $H_{2}O$의 가스가 발생되며 $300^{\circ}C$이상에서는 $CO_2$와 함께 가스가 발생하였다. 고 진공에서 표면조도는 상온에서부터 상승하다가 유리 전이점에서 감소하며, 다시 연화점 이상에서 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 PDP에서 불순가스 발생의 원인을 규명하기 위한 기초적인 실험이라 할 수 있다.

As the importance of outdoor lighting become more widely recognized, outdoor lighting has been installed in many buildings, plazas, landscape, and historical monuments in Korea, Outdoor lighting on showing complex, in particular, express its values as local landmarks. However, the excessive outdoor lighting in the large-scale shopping complex tends to cause light pollution. Many advanced countries are trying to create a comfortable lighting environment by the guidlines and regulations on outdoor lighting to prevent light pollution. For this research backgrounds, the light pollution of three showing complexes in Seoul have been investigated. For the purpose, luminance of building facade, horizontal illuminance, and vertical illuminance were measured with proper measurement instruments and compared the results with the CIE recommendations. The results of the study are as follows. As no cut-off luminaries are currently installed on pedestrian walks, some glare were occured partially. It also shows that the luminance of building facades are high to improve the degree of public awareness of buildings and advertisements. In other words, the luminance of the building facade, when compared with that of the CIE recommendations, is twice as high and the vatical illuminance of pedestrian walks is far higher than that of the CIE recommendations, which proves the existence of light pollution. As Korea has not yet provided proper regulations or guidelines for the control of light pollution, it is necessary to make appropriate codes for it.

$Ho^{3+}$ doped $SrAl_2O_4$ upconversion phosphor powders were synthesized by spray pyrolysis, and the crystallographic properties and luminescence characteristics were examined by varying activator concentrations and heattreatment temperatures. The effect of organic additives on the crystal structure and luminescent properties was also investigated. $SrAl_2O_4:Ho^{3+}$ powders showed intensive green emission due to the $^5F_4/^5S_2{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of $Ho^{3+}$. The optimal $Ho^{3+}$ concentration in order to achieve the highest luminescence was 0.1%. Over this concentration, emission intensities were largely diminished via a concentration quenching due to dipole-dipole interaction between activator ions. According to the dependence of emission intensity on the pumping power of a laser diode, it was clear that the upconversion of $SrAl_2O_4:Ho^{3+}$ occurred via the ground state absorption-excited state absorption processes involving two near-IR photons. Synthesized powders were monoclinic as a major phase, having some hexagonal phase. The increase of heat-treatment temperatures from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1350^{\circ}C$ led to crystallinity enhancement of monoclinic phase, reducing hexagonal phase. The hexagonal phase, however, did not disappear even at $1350^{\circ}C$. When both citric acid (CA) and ethylene glycol (EG) were added to the spray solution, the resulting powders had pure monoclinic phase without forming hexagonal phase, and led to largely enhancement of crystallinity. Also, N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) addition to the spray solution containing both CA and EG made it possible to effectively reduce the surface area of $SrAl_2O_4:Ho^{3+}$ powders. Consequently, the $SrAl_2O_4:Ho^{3+}$ powders prepared by using the spray solution containing CA/EG/DMF mixture as the organic additives showed about 168% improved luminescence compared to the phosphor prepared without organic additives. It was concluded that both the increased crystallinity of high-purity monoclinic phase and the decrease of surface area were attributed to the large enhancement of upconversion luminescence.

The aim of this study is to analyze the daylight performance at Changdeokgung Nakseonjae that is the representative and most well preserved Korean royal palace. As a result of measuring illuminance and luminance, direct sunlight is cut off by the eaves and reflective light from the court yard comes in the inside of the floor. As the layer of window is increased, daylight is decreased and the illuminance distribution is more stable because of decreasing of illuminance changes. Also, the lower part luminance is higher than upper part of window surface because direct sunlight is cut off by the eaves. This study would be used as preliminary data for applying characteristics of lighting environment of Korean royal palace to modem architecture.
