최근 LCD제품은 고유한 특장인 경박단소가 요구되면서, 기존의 Back Light Unit(BLU) 로는 대응할 수 없는 사양으로 진화되고 있다. 기존과 동일한 설계개념으로 접근시에 시장에서 요구되는 중량, 두께, 휘도의 사양을 만족시킬 수 없으며, BLU의 주요광원인 CCFL(Cold Cathod Fluorescent Lamp)의 휘도 개선 또 한 한계에 다다르고 있다. 따라서 앞으로의 BLU 의 고성능화는 최적화, 고효율화로의 개발 전개가 예상되며, LCD의 고해상도에 따른 투과율 저하를 보상하기 위한 고품질 BLU의 개발이 시급한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 BLU의 고효율화, 고품질화를 달성하기 위한 고성능 도광판 개발과 관련하여, 실물 제작에 앞서 광학시뮬레이션을 통한 이론적 접근을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 상측에서 정각 $90^{\circ}$ 에 높이 $50{\mu}m$ 하측에서 정각 $80^{\circ}$ 높이 $28{\mu}m$일때 평균조도가 71.52W/m^2 구현됨을 알 수 있다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 통상의 인쇄 방식 도광판에 비해서 약 20% 정도의 휘도향상이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 차후 본 결과를 바탕으로 한 실물 제작을 통해 설계 시뮬레이션 결과와의 비교를 통해서 정확한 예측이 가능한 시스템을 구현함을 목적으로 하였다.

최근, LCD-TV의 대형화가 경쟁적으로 진행되고 있으며 대형 BLU를 제작하기 위해서는 백라이트의 직경을 대구경 화하고, 또한 고화질을 이루기 위하여 휘도특성을 개선시켜야 한다. 통상적으로 백라이트에 사용되는 고압방전은 환경이 증가할수록 휘도가 저하하는 특성을 나타내므로 대화면 LCD-TV를 개발하는데 문제점을 갖고 있다. 또한, LCD-TV 백라이트로 가장 많이 사용하는 CCFL은 병렬로 구동할 수 없어 다수의 트랜스포머가 필요하여 전체적인 BLU가격을 상승시키는 요인이 되고 있어 병렬구동이 가능한 EEFL을 백라이트로 사용하고자 하는 노력이 진행되고 있으나 CCFL에 비하여 휘도가 낮아 사용이 제한되고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 고휘도의 병력구동이 가능한 새로운 EEFL을 개발하였으며, 그 특성을 분석한 결과 기존 EEFL에 비하여 40%이상의 광효율을 증가시키고, 대구경에서 CCFL보다 2배 기존의 EEFL에 비하여 3배 이상의 휘도를 증가시킬 수 있으며, 동시에 병렬구동이 가능한 고휘도 외부전극램프를 개발하였다.

This paper presents the design and implementation of an improved cascaded multilevel inverter topology with asymmetric DC sources. This experimental inverter topology is a stand-alone system with simulations and experiments performed using resistance loads. The topology uses four asymmetric binary DC sources that are independent from each other and one H-bridge. The topology was simulated using PSIM software before an actual prototype circuit was tested. The proposed topology was shown to be very efficient. It was able to generate a smooth output waveform up to 31 levels with only eight switches. The obtained simulation and experimental results are almost identical. In a 1,200W ($48.3{\Omega}$) resistive load application, the THDv and efficiency of the topology were found to be 1.7% and 97%, respectively. In inductive load applications, the THDv values were 1.1% and 1.3% for an inductive load ($R=54{\Omega}$ dan L=146mH) and a 36W fluorescent lamp load with a capacitor connected at the dc bus.

In this study, We made visual inspection system using Vision Board. It is consist of an illuminator (a fluorescent lamp), image input device (CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) camera), image processing system(Vision Board(FARAMVB-02)), image output device (video monitor, printer), and a measuring instrument(TELMN1000). Length measurement by visual inspection system make use of 100mm guage block(instead of calculating distance between a camera and a object). It measured horizontal and vertical length factor from 400mm to 650mm by increasing 50mm. In this place, measured horizontal and vertical length factor made use of length measure- ment of a injection. A measuring instrument used to ompare a measured length of a injection visual inspection system with it. In conclusion, length measurement of a injection compared a measuring instrument with visual inspecion system using length factor of 100mm gauge block. We find that maximum error of length is 0.55mm when it compar with the measuring value of two devices(FARAMVB-02, TELMN1000). Program of visual inspection system is made up Borland C++3.1.

Angelica gigas, belonging family Apiaceae, is a perennial and famous medical plant growing in Korea, Japan, and China. The aims of this study was to analyze the growth and accumulated Decursin and its precursor Decursinol angelate of A.gigas grown under fluorescent lamp and LED. A. gigas 'Manchu' were sowed and managed for seedlings stage in a glass house for 4 weeks. One hundred twenty seedlings with 3 true leafs were transplanted at an ebb & flow system with fluorescent lamp and LED [red: peak wavelength 660nm, blue: peak wavelength 455 nm, white = 3:2:4 ratio] irradiated at $180{\pm}7{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ at the top of plant canopy for 5 weeks. The number of leaves increased by 13.5% in the LED treatment, though it is not statistically significant. Leaf length/width ratio of A. gigas grown under the fluorescent lamps was 24% bigger than the LED treatment and also the stem was 13% larger. Maximum root length was similar to both groups. Fresh weight and dry weight of shoots grown under the LED increased by 50% and 42% and the both weights of roots increased by 125% and 45%, respectively. The contents of Decursin and Decursinol angelate grown under the florescent lamps were larger than LED by 188% and 27% in shoot and 78% and 8% in root. The contents of Decursin and Decursinol angelate per plant grown under LED and florescent lamps were 132mg and 122mg. In conclusion, functional materials in A. gigas were increased by florescent light and its growth was promoted by LEDs light.

This study was conducted to examine the growth and phytochemical contents of spinach (Spinacia Oleracea L. 'Sushiro') as affected by different fluorescent lamps in a closed-type plant production system. Seeds were sown in a 128-cell plug tray filled in rockwool. The seedlings were transplanted into a DFT (deep floating technique) system with recycling nutrient solution (EC $1.5dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and pH 6.5) in a closed-type plant production system. The seedlings were grown under 3 types of fluorescent lamp, #S (NBFHF 32S8EX-D, CH LIGHTING Co. Ltd., China), #O (FHF32SSEX-D, Osram Co. Ltd., Germany), and #P (FLR32SS EX-D, Philips Co. Ltd., The Netherlands) at $150{\mu}mol{\cdot}m-2{\cdot}s^{-1}\;PPFD$ with a photoperiod of 14/10 (light/dark) hours. Plants were cultured under condition of $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ temperature and $60{\pm}10%$ relative humidity after transplanting. Thirty plants per each treatment were cultivated for $6^{th}$ week after transplanting. And growth and phytochemical contents were measured at $3^{rd}$ and $6^{th}$ week. At the $3^{rd}$ week after transplanting, the parameter values of plant height and leaf width were higher in the #O than the others. However, fresh and dry weights of root were the greatest in the #P. In addition, total phenolic concentration was the greatest in the #P. At $6^{th}$ week after transplanting, the #O had the greatest growth of spinach in the plant height and fresh and dry weights of shoot. The total phenolic contents significantly increased in the #O and showed significantly difference. However, there was no significant difference all treatments in antioxidant activity. Therefore, these results suggest that the #O was suitable for the growth and phytochemical accumulation of spinach in a closed-type plant production system.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of artificial light sources on growth, yield, and glucosinolate content of hydoroponically grown Peucedanum japonicum in plant factory. Treatments were given with LED Blue:White(1:1, B:W), LED Red:Blue:White(2:1:3, RBW), and LED Blue:White(1:1)+Florescent lamp(BW+FL). Number of harvested leaves and leaf weight of BW+FL were higher than BW and RBW. BW+FL in leaf length and RBW in leaf width were significant difference with other treatments. Chlorophyll content and 'L' value were not significant difference among the treatments. The 'a' and 'b' value is the lowest in BW+FL. Glucosinolate content was high in order of glucobrassicin, glucoiberin, sinigrin, gluconasturtiin, progoitrin, glucoraphamin, and epiprogoitrin in all treatments, and total glucosinolate content was the highest in RBW treatment. Moisture, crude protein, crude fat, and ash content of leaves were not different among the treatments. In conclusion, this study showed that light caused growth and secondary metabolites synthesis, and we recommend to further study between light and secondary metabolites for increasing functionality.

There are many possibilities that recycled papers adulterate contaminants during the process. The objective of this research was to evaluate safety of paper-based packaging materials for food, especially commercial pizza boxes in Korea. Ultimately, we compared recycled and non-recycled commercial paper packaging materials. This study was based on Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) regulation. PCBs were measured by GC-ECD. Arsenic and lead were analyzed using an ICP-MS. Formaldehyde was determined by LC-MS. Fluorescent materials were detected by UV lamp. The result of this study shows that non-recycled paper packaging materials meets all the tested hygienic specifications for food packaging materials, whereas recycled paper-based paperboard box may be contaminated by fluorescent whitening agent. Though these results need to be further studied, it is recommended to avoid using recycled paper in direct contact with food when used in food packaging.

This study was carried out to get the basic data to practically design an artificial light-used plant factory system for common ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.) cultivation. The adequate range of light intensity was $120-200{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ and the carbon fixed rates was $0.84nmolCO_2{\cdot}cm^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. When the planting density, light intensity, and yield were $0.0225m^2$ ($15{\times}15cm$), $200{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, and 1,000 plants per day, the total number of the plants, cultivated area, and total light intensities were estimated as 25,000 plants, $563m^2$, and $140,625{\mu}mol{\cdot}s^{-1}$, respectively. About 153.2kW with 2,785 fluorescent lights (FL) needed for the electric power and the electricity charges was 2.46 million won for one month. At a harvest rate of 1,000 plants per day in closed-type plant factory, the light installation cost, total installation cost, and total production cost were 27.85, 83.56, and 100.27 million won, respectively. The production cost per plant including labor cost was calculated as 370 won, providing that the cultivation period was 25 days and marketable ratio was 80%. Considering the annual total expenses, incomes, and depreciation cost, the sales cost per plant could be estimated around 970 won or higher.

The purple sulfur phototrophic bacterium, Thiocapsa roseopersicina NCIB 8347 has been studied on hydrogen production and cell growth under different culture conditions, such as light source, light intensity, and growth temperature. T. roseopersicina showed maximum cell growth of 1.38 and 1.42 g-DCW/L under 7.5-10 klux of halogen and fluorescent light, respectively, and produced maximum amount of hydrogen with values of 0.90 and 0.48 $mL-H_2/mg$-DCW under the irradiation of 10 klux of halogen and fluorescent light, respectively. The optimum growth temperature for hydrogen production was $26^{\circ}C$, and hydrogen production rate was lowered over $30^{\circ}C$. When T. roseopersicina was grown photoheterotrophically under irradiation of 8-9 klux of halogen lamp, the generation time was 4.2 hr. The strains started producing hydrgen from the middle of the logarithmic growth phase and continued until succinate concentration leveled out.
