자연의 법칙이 보장해 주는 완벽한 보안이 가능한 양자암호화 통신을 위해서는 아주 약한 빛을 사용해 한 펄스에서 두 개 이상의 광자가 발견될 확률을 아주 작게 해야한다. 그러나 잡음과 검출기의 양자효율 등을 고려하면 현실적으로는 실험적 상황에서 발생되는 신호왜곡과 도청에 의한 신호왜곡을 구별해 낼수 있는 조건을 찾아내야 한다. 검출기에 걸어주는 전압의 크기와 신호검출시의 문턱전압을 변화시켜가며 여러 세기의 빛에 대한 양자암호화 키 전송가능성을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 암호화 키전송 방식은 잘 알려진 두 가지 선형편광과 두가지 원형편광 상태를 이용한 4-state 암호화 키 전송방식을 사용하였다.

본 논문에서는 광학설계 프로그램을 이용하여 LED 광원의 위치 변화에 따른 배광분포에 대하여 연구하였다. 사용한 LED 조명기구는 엣지형의 LED 배열을 이용하였으며 반사판을 중심으로 도광판 및 확산판을 위와 아래에 배치한 구조이다. LED 칩을 반사판 에지 중심에서 위로 1mm, 2mm 및 3mm로 위치를 바꾸어 시뮬레이션 하였다. LED 칩이 중심에 위치한 경우는 전반확산 배광분포를 보였으며 2mm 이상에서는 효율 0.56의 반직접 배광 분포를 보였다. 3mm 위에 LED 칩을 위치시키면 0.31 효율을 갖는 직접 배광분포를 갖는 배광특성을 나타내었다. 도광판은 평면형 보다 칩 위치에서 밖으로 작아지는 쐐기형의 구조에서 더 좋은 효율을 나타내었다. 그리고 반사면에 반구형의 형상을 0.015mm 씩 증가시키며 방사 형태로 배치한 경우는 파워 1.02W, 효율 0.25, 최대광도 0.104W/sr로서 패턴을 형성하지 않은 경우보다 더 우수한 광 특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

We report a new architecture for high efficiency polymer solar cells introducing a new concept of 'optical spacer' with new material. By implementing a novel solution-based titanium oxide ($TiO_{x}$) layer between the active layer and the electron collecting Al electrode, we invented a way to increase ${\sim}50\;%$ in power conversion efficiency compared to conventional polymer solar cells. Now the new devices exhibit ${\sim}6\;%$ power conversion efficiency, which is the highest value reported to date for a polymer based photovoltaic cell. The $TiO_{x}$ layer increases the efficiency by modifying the spatial distribution of the light intensity inside the device, thereby creating more photogenerated charge carriers in the bulk heterojunction layer.

Distribution and standing crops of seedling and sapling as undergrowing tree were investigated in a Pinus rigida forest. The relative light intensity(RLI) on the ground level was 3.9∼59.3% which indicates a wide range. Under this range of RLI seedlings and saplings distribute well in the stand. Eight trees were selected from the stand, then measured dry weight of stem, branches and leaves using thestratified clip technique. A possible relationship between the diameter at the bottom of the tree (Do) and standing crops was investigated. As Do increased from 0.8cm (T1) to 7.2cm (T8), the standing crops also increased from 42.6g to 7,410.4g. Since semi-log values between Do and standing crops clearly indicates a straight line, there is close relationship between these two factors. Therefore it is possible to estimate the standing crops of seedling and sapling by measuring Do. Productive structure shows that phytosynthetic layer is located above the 1/2 height of the tree and maximum photosynthetic layer apperars on 2/3 level in height.

This paper represents the lateral first-order mode characteristics for the semiconductor laser diodes using a two-dimensional numerical simulator. In order to analyze the lateral first-order mode characteristics, Helmholtz wave equation is solved twice for the lateral fundamental and the first-order mode considering the mode gain, total losses, and the recombination rate due to the stimulated emission radiation for the each mode independantly. Through this procedure, we find that the lateral first-order mode was easily guided as increasing the stripe width for the index-guiding structures, and that the lateral first-order mode seems to be dominated in the distribution of total light intensity when its output power reaches nearly half of that of the lateral fundamental mode. This results may be used to design the device structure which guides only the lateral fundamental mode.

A high power laser beam focused on a small area accelerates a thin material that flies and hits other target material in which a shock wave may be induced. This laser induced shock experimental method is more repeatable and cheaper but worse than other experimental method using gas gun or other apparatus. An optical system including a phase zone plate reduces the interference and also makes the focused-beam-intensity distribution uniform. We wrote a computer code that calculates light ray traces. Using the code we designed and fabricated an optical system including a phase zone plate and improved the laser-beam uniformity. We introduce preliminary experimental results of laser induced shock of the samples such as aluminum and other materials.

A novel fiber-optic sensor system is suggested in which fiber Bragg grating sensors are demodulated by a wavelength-sweeping fiber laser source and a spectrometer. The spectrometer consists of a diffraction grating and a 512-pixel photo-diode array. The reflected Bragg wavelength information is transformed into spatial intensity distribution on the photo-diode array. The peak locations linearly correspond to the Bragg wavelengths, regardless of the nonlinearities in the wavelength tuning mechanism of the fiber laser. The high power density of the fiber laser enables obtaining high signal-to-noise ratio outputs. The improved demodulation characteristics were experimentally demonstrated with a fiber Bragg grating sensor array with 5 gratings. The sensor outputs were in much more linear fashion compared with the conventional tunable band-pass filter demodulation. Also it showed advantages in signal processing, due to the high level of photo-diode array signals, over the broadband light source system, especially in measurement of fast varying dynamic physical quantities.

The work reports on the fabrication of an optical planar waveguide in the Nd:CNGG crystal by the 0.4-MeV hydrogen ion implantation with a fluence of $8.0{\times}10^{16}ions/cm^2$. The nuclear energy loss of the implanted hydrogen ions was derived by using SRIM 2013 code. The microscope image of the proton-implanted Nd:CNGG crystal cross section was captured by a metallographic microscope. The transmittance spectra were recorded before and after the ion implantation. The light intensity distribution of the planar waveguide at 632.8 nm was experimentally measured to validate its effect on one dimension confinement. The investigation shows that the proton-implanted Nd:CNGG waveguide is a candidate for an optoelectronic integrated device.

Differential phase contrast (DPC) microscopy, a central quantitative phase imaging (QPI) technique in cell biology, facilitates label-free, real-time monitoring of intrinsic optical phase variations in biological samples. The existing DPC imaging theory, while important for QPI, is grounded in paraxial diffraction theory. However, this theory lacks accuracy when applied to high numerical aperture (NA) systems that are vital for high-resolution cellular studies. To tackle this limitation, we have, for the first time, formulated a nonparaxial DPC imaging equation with a transmission cross-coefficient (TCC) for high NA DPC microscopy. Our theoretical framework incorporates the apodization of the high NA objective lens, nonparaxial light propagation, and the angular distribution of source intensity or detector sensitivity. Thus, our TCC model deviates significantly from traditional paraxial TCCs, influenced by both NA and the angular variation of illumination or detection. Our nonparaxial imaging theory could enhance phase retrieval accuracy in QPI based on high NA DPC imaging.

본 연구에서는 간편하고 빠른 사출성형을 위하여 한쪽이 평면인 비구면 형상을 갖는 단일 fly-eye 렌즈형태의 2차 렌즈를 사용하는 MR-16 램프 시리즈의 설계를 보고하고자 한다. 인테리어 조명용 할로겐 램프를 대체하기 위해 효율이 높고 좁은 배광각을 갖도록 MR-16 램프용 광학계를 설계하여 이를 제작하고 성능을 확인하였다. 광학설계용 소프트웨어는 ORA사의 CODE V와 LightTools를 사용하였다. 그 결과, 제작된 MR-16 램프의 배광각은 $22.4^{\circ}$, $31.1^{\circ}$, $37.3^{\circ}$, $59.9^{\circ}$였으며, 광효율은 각각 76.5 lm/W, 75.2 lm/W, 72.0 lm/W, 77.8 lm/W 이고, 복사 균제도 81%에서 발산각은 $3^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $22^{\circ}$, $49^{\circ}$이다. 그리고 제작된 MR-16 램프에 확산시트를 2차 렌즈와 LED사이에 확산 시트를 적용하여 황색 띠를 제거한 후의 배광각은 각각 $20.8^{\circ}$, $31.5^{\circ}$, $37.8^{\circ}$, $68.7^{\circ}$로 측정되었다. 실험적으로 2차 렌즈를 같은 렌즈 4개를 붙이는 형식으로 fly-eye 형태로 함으로써 설계 및 제작이 용이하며 배광각과 균일한 조도 분포를 갖는데 있어서 문제가 없다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
