Up-conversion of rare-earth element added glass is promising area for short wavelength laser source by utilizing high power semiconductor infra-red laser if the efficiency can be increased by proper method. In this study, relatively low phonon energy fluoride glasses were prepared by co-doping rare-earth elements to realize the high efficiency up-convertor. The physical, chemical, andoptical properties of co-doped fluoride glasses were measured. 10 combinations of 5 different rare-earth fluoride elements doped samples were prepared and their transition temperatures, chemical durability, density, hardness, refractive index, absorption, fluorescence, and fluorescence lifetime were measured. 480nm wavelengths blue up-conversion was found in the Yb3+/Tm3+ co-doped glass sample with 800nm laser source and the optimum composition for the most efficient blue up-conversion was found from the glass sample with 0.3 mol% TmF3 and 1 mol% YbF3.

We present wide-field near-IR imaging polarimetry of 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud, using the InfraRed Survey Facility (IRSF). We obtained polarimetry data in J, H, and Ks bands using the JHKs-simultaneous imaging polarimeter SIRPOL. Since many Galactic field stars along the line-of-sight to the Large Magellanic Cloud are contaminated in our data, we developed methods to identify the foreground sources using the proper motion data. We investigated polarimetric properties between the Galactic foreground stars and the stars in the LMC.

목성 극지방의 분광 관측 자료에는 $H_3+$, $H_2$, 탄화수소 분자들($CH_4,C_2H_2,C_2H_6$)이 방출선의 형태로 나타난다. 이 분자선들은 2 ~ 3 mm에서는 대부분 관측이 이루어졌지만, 7.8 mm 파장대에서는 탄화수소 분자들 중에서 $CH_4$가 hotspot 형태로 관측이 되었다. 본 연구에서는 마우나케아 천문대의 NASA IRTF (InfraRed Telescope Facility) 망원경 중에 중적외선 고분산 분광기 TEXES (Texas Echelon Cross Echelle Spectrograph)를 설치하여 $CH_4$와 함께 처음 발견된 $C_2H_2$의 특성을 분석하였다. 텍사스 주립대학에서 개발한 TEXES는 5 ~ 25 mm의 관측 파장대에서 저분산(R~3,000), 중 분산(R~15,000), 고분산(R~100,000)으로 관측할 수 있다 (Lacy et al., 2002). 본 연구에 사용된 자료는 2009년 5월 29일에 관측되었으며, 파장대는 7.8 mm 이다.

In a surface type ac PDP having $200{\mu}m$ gap between the surface electrodes, the luminous efficacy has a reciprocal dependence on the sustaining frequency. The discharge current flowing to the address electrodes are measured to investigate the phenomena and spectral intensity from visible light to infra red is measured to verify phosphor saturation with the frequency. Experiments show the discharge between the address and surface electrodes deteriorates the efficacy in high sustaining frequencies. Pulse width modulation is introduced to improve the efficacy. In optimum conditions, we obtained 1.99lm/w and 1.79lm/w at 200kHz and 250kHz, respectively.

Accurate extraction of traversable region is a critical issue for autonomous navigation of unmanned ground vehicle(UGV). This paper introduces enhanced extraction of traversable region by combining scene clustering with 3D world modeling using CCD(Charge-Coupled Device)/IR(Infra Red) image. Scene clustering is developed with K-means algorithm based on CCD and IR image. 3D world modeling is developed by fusing CCD and IR stereo image. Enhanced extraction of traversable regions is obtained by combining feature of extraction with a clustering method and a geometric characteristic of terrain derived by 3D world modeling.

This paper describes the development of Target Simulator developed for performance test and failure detection of Imaging Infra-Red(IIR) seeker which is one of the most important equipments in specific cruise missile systems. The simulator makes it possible to test detecting and tracking performance for target, uniformity of IIR, FOV status and spatial resolving power. Besides, it includes several self-test functions and optic axis alignment methods to improve its own reliability.

Morphology of low density polyethylene(LDPE) such as the degree of crystallinity changes with thermal history etc. In order to clarify the effects of morphological changes on electrical breakdown, we studied direct current and impulse breakdown phenomena of LDPE films heat-treated at 100[$^{\circ}C$] for 1[H] in silicone oil and subsequently cooling to various ways. The degree of crystallinity was estimated by the infra red absorption and X-ray diffraction measurements for the specimens of slowly cooled, cooled in water, original, and cooled in liquid nitrogen gas. As the result, we obtained that the first, second, third, and fourth was slowly cooled of 70.23[%], cooled in water of 61.6[%], original specimen of 56.75[%], and cooled in liquid nitrogen gas of 34.7[%] respectively. The crystalline size and distribution of specimens were researched by Differential scanning calolimeter measurements.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films have been deposited on PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and glass substrates by a do magnetron sputter method of powder target without heat treatments such as substrate heater and post heat treatment. During the sputtering deposition, sputtering parameters such as sputtering power, working pressure, oxygen gas mixture, film thickness and substrate-target distance are important factors for the high quality of ITO thin films. The structural, electrical and optical properties of as-deposited ITO oxide films are investigated by sputtering power, oxygen partial pressure and films thickness among the several sputtering conditions. XRD patterns of ITO films are affected by sputtering power and pressure. As the power and pressure are increased, (411) and (422) peaks of ITO films are grown strongly. Electrical resistivity is also increased, as the sputtering power and pressure are increased. Transmittance of ITO thin films in the visible light ranges is lowered with an increase of sputtering power and film thickness. Reflectance of ITO films in infra-red region is decreased, as the power and pressure is increased.

A sequential copolypeptide with repeating unit sequences, in which a glycyl residue is flanked progressively by two ${\gamma}$-benzyl-L-glutamyl residues, has been synthesized by poymerizing p-nitrophenyl ester of ${\gamma}$-benzyl-L-glutamyl-${\gamma}$ -benzyl-L-gutamyl-glycine. Polymers obtained were characterized by viscosity and infra-red spectral data. The highest molecular weight obtained was 21,000. Molecular conformation in solid state was found to be a mixed form of and |${\beta}$-structure. Polymers obtained were insoluble in the most of the organic solvents except in a strong acid like dichloroacetic acid, but in binary mixtures of solvents such as dichloroacetic acid-ethylene dichloride or dichloroacetic acid-chloroform, they were soluble within certain ranges of solvent compositions.

Childhood obesity is harmful to health and growth. We had experienced a childhood obese patient. From Feb. 28. 2003 to July. 14. 2003. We applied Chegameuiyin-tang(體感意苡仁湯), electrolipolysis and VLCD(very low calorie diet), behavioral therapy, aerobic exercise, infra-red therapy, auricular acupuncture, and aqua-massage. Through this obesity treatment during 5 months, total weight loss was 12.2kg, reduction of percent body fat was 13.4% (from 38.5 to 25.1), her condition and hepatic index(AST, ALT) was improved.
