This work provided a review of three techniques-(1) spectrochemical, (2) electrochemical, and (3) spectroelectrochemical-for molten salt medias. A spectroelectrochemical system was designed by utilizing this information. Here, we designed a spectroelectrochemical cell (SEC) and calibrated temperature controllers, and performed initial tests to explore the system's capability limit. There were several issues and a redesign of the cell was accomplished. The modification of the design allowed us to assemble, align the system with the light sources, and successfully transferred the setup inside a controlled environment. A preliminary run was executed to obtain transmission and absorption background of NaCl-CaCl₂ salt at 600℃. It shows that the quartz cuvette has high transmittance effects across all wavelengths and there were lower transmittance effects at the lower wavelength in the molten salt media. Despite a successful initial run, the quartz vessel was mated to the inner cavity of the SEC body. Moreover, there was shearing in the patch cord which resulted in damage to the fiber optic cable, deterioration of the SEC, corrosion in the connection of the cell body, and fiber optic damage. The next generation of the SEC should attach a high temperature fiber optic patch cords without introducing internal mechanical stress to the patch cord body. In addition, MACOR should be used as the cell body materials to prevent corrosion of the surface and avoid the mating issue and a use of an adapter from a manufacturer that combines the free beam to a fiber optic cable should be incorporated in the future design.

This paper dealt with the design guide of the conventional edge-lit backlight optic with which the on-axis luminance could be increased by trying to improve the light condensing efficiency of a bright enhancement film (BEF). First, the general design guide concerned with the backlight optic was proposed, and then its validness was experimentally proved by conducting design examples with haze controls of both diffuse film and microdot material printed on the backside of the light guide plate. Experimental results showed that the variation range of the on-axis luminance by the present approach was about $5{\sim}9%$, which would be by no means negligible in the practical application.

Mach-Zehnder type GaAs elcetro-optic waveguide modulator has been designed in this paper.The modulator. Considered is based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer configuration, consisting of two Y branch couping rib type waveguides formed in two epitaxial layers on GaAs substrate. The mode theory on waveguides and electo-optic effect of GaAs were utilized to determine the design parameters for the modulator proposed. Effective index method was applied to design the of waveguide supporting a single mode were calculated to achieve the optimized operation of the modulator. Considering interrelationships between many parameters.

In this paper, fiber optic sound and vibration monitoring sensor which is latticed shape structure based on Sagnac interferometer is fabricated and tested in laboratory conditions. To detect external vibrations surface mounted fibers on the latticed steel wire fence with a dimension of 170cm by 180cm is used. To detect external sound frequency the tightened fiber optic itself wire netting fence with a dimension of 50cm by 50cm is used. Experiments for the detection of the excited vibration and sound signals were performed. A small vibrator induced external vibration signal and it is applied to the latticed structure in the range of 100Hz to several kHz. External sound signal applied to the fiber optic sensor net using non-directional sound speaker. The detected optical signals were compared and analyzed to the detected both accelerometer and microphone signals in the time and frequency domain. Based on the experimental results, distributed fiber optic sensor using Sagnac interferometer detected effectively external vibration and sound signal and had a good performance. This system can be expanded to the monitoring of a significant system and to the structural health monitoring system.

The most important thing to be considered in designing stop lamps for automobiles is to satisfy the photometric requirement in various countries and achieve the equal image. To meet these requirements, parabolic reflector and fish-eye optics has been widely applied. The form of the embodied optic is most important in satisfying the photometric requirement and achieving the equal image because the impact of fish-eye optic is decisive. In this study, a series of researches has been performed to optimize of the fish-eye optic by analyzing beam pattern through the photometric simulation based on CATAI program. The optimized results have been shown to meet the various photometric requirements including non dazzling condition considering the following car. The methodology of this study is excepted to influence the development procedure of light system. The time and cost for the system development would be greatly saved by suing this simulaion technique.

In this paper, to detect external sound frequency on the latticed structure, fiber optic sensor net using Sagnac interferometer was fabricated and tested. The latticed structure fabricated with dimension of 50cm in width and 50cm in height, the optical fiber, 50m in length, distributed and fixed on the latticed structure. Single mode fiber, a laser with 1,550nm in wavelength, 2${\times}$2 coupler were used. External sound signal applied to the fiber optic sensor net and the detected optical signals were compared and analyzed to the detected microphone signals against time and frequency domain. Based on the experimental results, fiber optic sensor net using Sagnac interferometer detected external sound frequency, effectively. This system can be expanded to the structural health monitoring system.

A fiber-optic pressure sensor is fabricated with a photoelastic glass material. To remove the influence of external pertubation along the optical fiber, a new referencing technique is proposed by using two light sources. LED with 870nm wavelength is used as light source for reference signal, and LED with 660nm wavelength is used as light source for modulation signal. The fiber-optic pressure sensor system shows good linearity within the pressure range of 0 to 5 $kg/cm^2$.

The hydrophone is based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with 35 m of sensing fiber. The sensitivity is measured up to -128 dB re rad/$\mu$ Pa in range from 1.4 kHz to5 kHz. A system with this design of hydrophone may be applied to detect low frequency underwater acoustic signals.

In this paper, we investigated the characteristics of 4${\times}$4 thermo-optic switch using two mode interference(TMI) coupler. We designed this matrix switch by using a configuration which combines a double Mach- Zehnder interferometer(MZI) switching unit. The average extinction ratio and average excess loss of the 4${\times}$4 thermo-optic switch was 33.7dB, 0.29dB, respectively.

Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of treadmill training with real optic flow scene on functional recovery of balance and balance self-efficacy in stroke patients. Design: Single blind, Randomized controlled trial. Methods: Nine patients following stroke were divided randomly into the treadmill with optic flow group (n=3), treadmill with virtual reality group (n=3), and control group (n=3). Subjects in the treadmill with optic flow group wore a head-mounted display in order to receive a speed modulated real optic flow scene during treadmill training for 30 minutes, while those in the treadmill with virtual reality group and control group received treadmill training with virtual reality and regular therapy for the same amount of time, five times per week for a period of three weeks. Timed up and go test (TUG) and activities-specific balance confidence scale (ABC scale) were evaluated before and after the intervention. Results: TUG in the treadmill training with optic flow group showed significantly greater improvement, compared with the treadmill training with virtual reality group and control group (p<0.05). Significantly greater improvement in the ABC scale was observed in the treadmill training with optic flow group and the tread mill training with virtual reality group, compared with the control group (p<0.05). Conclusions: Findings of this study demonstrate that treadmill training with real optic flow scene can be helpful in improving balance and balance self-efficacy of patients with chronic stroke and may be used as a practical adjunct to routine rehabilitation therapy.
