The colorimetric and fluorescent cyanide recognition properties of 2-[(9-ethyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)methylene]-propanedinitrile (1) in $CH_3CN-H_2O$ (2/1, v/v, HEPES 10 mM, pH = 7.0) solution were evaluated. The optical recognition process of probe 1 exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity to cyanide ion with the detection limit of $2.04{\times}10^{-6}$ M and barely interfered by other coexisting anions. The sensing mechanism of probe 1 is speculated to undergo a nucleophilic addition of cyanide to dicyanovinyl group present in compound 1. The colorimetric and fluorescent dual-modal response to cyanide makes probe 1 has a potential utility in cyanide detection.

This paper reports a preliminary experimental investigation and characterization of an optical fiber-based submersion sensor system for applications in water flooding and leakage. The sensor system comprises a multi-mode fiber spliced with fiber Bragg grating and an intensity-based interrogator. Submersion tests were conducted in water-air and Glycerin-air environments. By the refractive index of the fiber-probe surrounding materials, the reflectance and the detecting power level is determined. When the probe is dipped into the water, the optical output power dramatically decreases from -7.5dBm to -17.5dBm. But, the center of Bragg wavelength is not affected in spite of external material changes. Temporal response characteristics of the sensor system is investigated to verify the real-time reaction. When the probe is immersed into the liquid, there is no transition time.

The methods of recording transient phenomena with picosecond or better resolution fall into two basic categories: those in which the detector itself prossesses adequate time resolution for the task at hand, and those in which the response of the system is sampled by examining the characteristics of a second pulse ("the probe") delayed in time from the initiating pulse ("the pump") as a function of time delay between pump and probe cases. In this case the time resolution is only limited by the pump-and probe-pulse durations. As an application of this time-resolved spectroscopic technique, the ultrafast orientational relaxation phenomena of the dye molecules are currently under investigation in our laboratory. In this presentation the status of our experiment is summarized.iment is summarized.

The demands for reliable particle cloud temperature measurement exist in many process industries and scientific researches. Particle cloud temperature measurements depend on radiation thermometry at two or more color bands. In this study, we developed a sensitive, fast response and compact online infrared two-color probe to measure the temperature of a particle cloud in a phase of two field flow (solid-gas). The probe employs a detector contained two InGaAs photodiodes with different spectral responses in the same optical path, which allowed a compact probe design. The probe was designed to suit temperature measurements in harsh environments with the advantage of durability. The developed two-color probe is capable of detecting particle cloud temperature as low as $300^{\circ}C$, under dynamic conditions.

A method to determine chromium(III) ion in aqueous solution by chemiluminescence method using a lucigenin entrapped silica sol-gel film has been studied. An optical probe for chromium(III) ion has been prepared by entrapping lucigenin into silica sol-gel film coated on a glass support by dip coating. The chromium(III) optical sensor is based on the catalytic effect of chromium(IIII) ion on the reaction between lucigenin and hydrogen peroxide in basic solutions. The effects of Nafion, DMF and Triton X-100 were investigated to find the optimum condition to minimize cracking and leaching from the probe. The effects of pH and concentrations of lucigenin and hydrogen peroxide on the chemiluminescence intensity were investigated. The chemiluminescence intensity was increased linearly with increasing chromium(III) concentration from $2.5{\times}10^{-4}$M to $8.0{\times}10^{-7}$M and the detection limit was $4.0{\times}10^{-7}$M.

Optical nonlinearity of laser heated Si with thickness of 160$\mu$m is investigated by pump-probe method. Si is heated by pdsed Nd:YAG laser of $TEM_{00}$-mode with pulse duration of 180$\mu$sec. Temperature change is monitored by observing transmittance change of probe light whose wavelength lies near band gap of Si. It is found that temperature rise is linearly proportional to incident laser intensity and the maximum temperat~re increment is measured to be $16^{\circ}C$ for the maximum incident intensity of 25KW/$\textrm{cm}^2$. From these results, the third order nonlinear susceptibility .d3) at the wavelength of 1.06$\mu$mis estimated to be $6.6\times10^{-5}$esu due to laser heating.

An intraoral spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) system has been developed, using a custom-built hand-held scanner and spectrometer. The hand-held OCT probe, based on a microelectromechanical systems scanner and a self-built miniaturized drive circuit, had a field of view sufficient for dental diagnosis. The spectrometer using a fabricated f-theta lens provided the image depth required for dental diagnosis. The axial and transverse resolutions of the OCT system in air were 7.5 ㎛ and 12 ㎛ respectively. The hand-held probe could scan an area of 10 × 10 mm², and the spectrometer could image along a depth of 2.5 mm. To verify the utility of the developed OCT system, OCT images of tooth hard and soft tissues were acquired, and a user-interface program for diagnosis was developed. Early caries and microcracks that were difficult to diagnose with existing methods could be found, and the state of restoration could be observed. Measuring the depth of the gingival sulcus, distinguishing subgingival calculus, and detecting an implant under the gingiva suggested the possibility of the SD-OCT system as a diagnostic for dental soft tissues. Through the presented OCT images, the capability of the developed SD-OCT system for dental diagnosis was demonstrated.
