In-doped CdS thin films have been deposited at 150$^{\circ}C$ by simultaneous thermal evaporation of CdS and In. Deposition rate and film thickness were 8A/sec and about 1um, respectively. Indium doping concentration of films varied as Indium source temperature from 500$^{\circ}C$ to 700˚. Properties of In-CdS films have been investigatied by measurements of electrical resistivity, Hall effect, X-ray diffraction and optical trasmission spectra. The conductivity of these films was always n-type. The resistivity, carrier concentration, mobility and optical band gap dependence on Indium source temperature are reported. Carrier concentration and mobility of In-CdS films increased with increasing Indium source temperature: then they decreased. The variation of the optical band gap of In-CdS thin films are related to carrier concentration.

In this study, Selenium device was fabricated by vacuum evaporation method with the substrate temperature at room temperature and its electrical and optical properties were investigated to be used in optical device. The film properties largely depended on the transmittance and annealing time, and improved with aging owing to stress release. We found that the photocurrent of the films increase linearly with light illumination. As a result, Selenium device made by this method yielded a short circuit current density of 10.5mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, an open circuit voltage of 39OmV.

Carbon nitride (CN) films were synthesized on silicon substrates by a combined ion-beam and laser-ablation method under various conditions; ion-beam energy and ion-beam current were varied. Raman spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) were employed to characterize respectively the structural and the optical properties of the CN films. Raman spectra show that all the CN films are amorphous independent of the ion-beam current and the ion-beam energy. Refractive indices, extinction coefficients and optical band gaps which were determined from the measured SE spectra exhibit a significant dependence on the synthesis conditions. Especially, the decrease of the refractive indices and the shrinkage of the optical band gap is noticeable as the ion-beam current and/or the ion-beam energy increase.

ITO films on PET substrate were prepared by DC magnetron sputtering method using powdery target with different deposition conditions. In addition, the electrical and optical properties were investigated. As the sputtering power and working pressure were higher, the resistvity of ITO films increased. The optical transmittance deteriorated with increasing sputtering power and thickness. As the working pressure increased, however, the optical transmittance improved at visible region of light. From these results, we could deposited ITO films with $8{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}-cm$ of resistivity and 80% of transmittance at optimal conditions.

Eosin-doped boric acid glass saturable absorber has a relatively low saturation intensity (700 mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$) and low power optical phase conjugation is achived by the degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) experiments. Polarization properties of optical phase conjugation by DFWM have been demonstrated in this materials using a cw argon ion laser at wavelength 488 nm. The dependence of the phase conjugated reflectivity on the intensity and wavelength of the pump beam is examined. The magnitude of the energy exchange by the nondegenerate two-wave mixing (NDTWM) is maximized by frequency difference between the two beams of $\varphi\simeq$ 1100 Hz.

$ZnS/Na_3AlF_6$ multi-layer thin film were produced by evaporation system. ZnS were selected as a high refractive index material and $Na_3AlF_6$ were selected as low refractive index material. Optical properties including color effect were systematically studied in terms of different optical thickness by spectrophotometer. In oder to compare with experimental data, the Essential Macleod Program(EMP) was adopted that simulation program. The thin film consisting of $ZnS/Na_3AlF_6$ multi-layer show the wave length of $530{\sim}600nm$, typically color range between purple, blue, green. It was confirmed that this experimental result was well matched with simulation data.

Growth and changes of electronically conducting polypyrrole (PPy) in the form of thin films polymerized on metal electrodes were investigated by electrochemical and in situ three-parameter ellipsometry methods at the wavelength of 632.8 nm. Although the optical equations produced multiple sets of solution, it was possible to determine a unique set of thickness and the optical constants of a film by auxiliary measurements and/or physical reasoning. The changes in the thickness and the optical properties of the polymers during polymerization and electrochemical oxidation/reduction was successfully followed by the three-parameter ellipsometric technique. The optical properties of the polymers continuously changed as the film grew. The imaginary part of the refractive index of polypyrrole seemed to be dominantly determined by the existence of an absorption band around the visible range.

Electro-active polymers and dielectric elastomers have many intriguing properties that enable smart interfaces and electrically tunable optical systems, such as haptic feedback devices, artificial muscles, and expansion-tunable optical elements. These device classes are of great interest owing to their promising roles in next-generation technologies including virtual or augmented reality, human sensing and muscular enhancement, and artificial skins. In this report, we review basic principles, current state-of-the-art techniques, and future prospects of electro-active and dielectric elastomer technology. We describe chemical and physical properties of the most promising polymer substances, essential elementary architectures for artificial muscle-like functionalities, and their applications to haptic interfaces, muscular enhancement, and focus-tunable optical elements.

The Optical Wide-field patroL-Network (OWL-Net) is a Korean optical space surveillance system used to track and monitor objects in space. In this study, the characteristics of four Initial Orbit Determination (IOD) methods were analyzed using artificial observational data from Low Earth Orbit satellites, and an appropriate IOD method was selected for use as the initial value of Precise Orbit Determination using OWL-Net data. Various simulations were performed according to the properties of observational data, such as noise level and observational time interval, to confirm the characteristics of the IOD methods. The IOD results produced via the OWL-Net observational data were then compared with Two Line Elements data to verify the accuracy of each IOD method. This paper, thus, suggests the best method for IOD, according to the properties of angles-only data, for use even when the ephemeris of a satellite is unknown.

The optical properties of long-range transported Asian dust were studied by the satellite observations and Sun/sky radiometer measurements from the Aerosol Robotic Network(AERONET) in Northeast Asia. The movement of Asian dust from source regions to downwind areas was tracked by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument(OMI) derived aerosol product imagery. The optical properties of Asian dust were classified for geographical locations, which are source regions such as deserts area in Dunhuang and Inner Mongolia, downwind areas such as Yulin and Beijing, and long-range transported regions such as Korea(Anmyon and Gosan) and Japan(Noto). In general, relatively higher aerosol mass loadings with larger aerosol particles at desert regions were found. Aerosol Optical Depth(AOD) decreased significantly in downwind areas and long-range transported areas, which was accompanied by increased Angstrom exponents. This indicates the effects of aerosol mixing with various pollutants during transport of Asian dust plume on aerosol optical properties. Moreover, relatively high Single-Scattering Albedo(SSA) at 440 nm values ranging from 0.90 - 0.96 and increasing tendency of SSA with wavelength were observed at source region. The spectral dependence of SSA decreased during long-range transport.
