The effect of decorrelation on the coincidence is investigated with correlated photons produced by parametric down-conversion process. The degree of correlation between photon pairs is adjusted by changing the polarization dependent transmissivities of thin glass plate\ulcorner in front of two detectors. It was found that the single counts of each detectors are proportional to the transmissivity and the coincidence is proportional to the product of transmissivities of the glasses in front of two detectors.

We have fabricated a spectroadiometric system to measure spectral radiance of optical sources and evaluated its characteristics such as spectral responsivity, nonlinearity, and so on. The measurement system with PMT, Si, InGaAs, and IR-enhanced InGaAs detectors has shown a good linearity and a wide spectral responsivity of 250∼2500 nm. This spectroradiometric system will be used as the primary national standard system of spectral radiance measurements.

The Planar Hall effect in a spin valve structure has been applied as a biosensor being capable of detecting $Dynabeads^{(R)}$ M-280. The sensor performance was tested under the application of a DC magnetic field where the output signals were obtained from a nanovoltmeter. The sensor with the pattern size of $50{\times}100{\mu}m^2$ has produced high sensitivity; especially, the real-time profiles by using that sensor revealed significant performance at external applied magnetic field of around 7.0 Oe with the resolution of 0.04 beads per $\mu m^2$. Finally, a successful array including 24 patterns with the single sensor size of $3{\times}3{\mu}m^2$ has shown the uniform and stable signals for single magnetic bead detection. The comparison of this sensor signal with the others has proved feasibility for biosensor application. This, connecting with the advantages of more stable and high signal to noise of PHR sensor's behaviors, can be used to detect the biomolecules and provide a vehicle for detection and study of other molecular interaction.

[ $Zn_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ ] nanoparticles have been prepared by a sol-gel method. The structural and magnetic properties have been investigated by XRD, SEM, and Mossbauer spectroscopy, VSM. $Zn_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ powder that was annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ has spinel structure and behaved superparamagnetically at room temperature. The estimated size of superparammagnetic $Zn_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ nanoparticle is around 7 nm. The hyperfine fields of the A and I patterns at 4.2 K were found to be 510 and 475 kOe, respectively. The blocking temperature $(T_B)$ of superparammagnetic $Zn_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ nanoparticle is about 90 K. The magnetic anisotropy constant and relaxation time constant of $Zn_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ nanoparticle were calculated to be $K=1.6\times10^6erg/cm^3$.
