In (GeTe)$_{100-x}$(Sb$_2$Te$_3$)$_{x}$(x=33.5, 50, 66.5, 80 at.%) thin films, the optical properties of amorphous and crystalline thin film, XRD were studied. Also, the application for the phase change optical recording materials with the high stability and rapid erasing ability were studied. In the (GeTe)$_{100-x}$(Sb$_2$Te$_{3}$)$_{x}$ the transmittance was decreased with the increase of x. In all thin films, the transmittance was decreased and the reflectance was increased by annealing and particularly, the reflectance before and after annealing showed the large reflectance ratio. The XRD pattern, it was confined that these change of optical properties was due to the crystallization of amorphous thin films. The reflectance change was investigated using isothermal annealing condition.ion.ion.

This paper is basic study for development of the photoelectric-type smoke detector that is able to distinguish fire source as well as fire detection. For this subject, Light source and sensor which is normally used for the conventional smoke detector are assembled for the optical chamber. Using 3 type of the test fires (the paper fire, the wood fire, the flammable liquid fire) this paper attempts to find optical properties of each fire. These 3 type of fire are used in the testing of smoke detector according to UL 268 standard. As the result, there are disambiguated between the paper fire and the wood fire in scattering and reason of extinction in the flammable liquid fire is different from that of the paper and the wood fire.

To investigate the effect of preparing condition on the physical properties of carbon nanotubes suitable for optical applications, carbon nanotubes were synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition using Ni particles as a catalyst on stainless steel substrate and acetylene as a reactant gas. To examine the physical and optical properties, SEM, TEM, Ram an, UV-visible, and photoluminescence spectroscopy were used. The physical properties of carbon nanotubes such as diameter, degree of growth density and morphology were closely related to such experimental conditions as Ni particle size, growing pressure, and etching condit on of Ni particles, it appeared from the light absorbance and photoluminescence spectra of carbon nanotube mixture prepared with an addition of a photopolymer, P3HT(Poly(3-hexylthIop hene)) that carbon nanotube could do a role as a kind of electron acceptor for solar cell application.

Polyacrylamide (PAM) -HgS nanocomposites were successfully prepared in polyacrylamide (PAM) matrix. From TEM and XRD characterizations, the synthesized HgS nanocrystals were chain-like spherical in shape with a diameter of about 40-60 nm and high crystalline quality. The quantum-confined effect of HgS nanocrystals was confirmed by UV-vis diffuse reflection spectra. The optical properties of products were investigated by using photoluminescence (PL) spectra, which showed that HgS nanocrystals exhibited good optical properties with maximum emission peak at about 640 and 650 nm at different reaction temperatures. The interaction of HgS nanocrystals with PAM was studied through FT-IR spectroscopy and TG analysis, which suggested that $Hg^{2+}$ could interact with functional groups of PAM. The experimental results indicated that PAM not only induced nucleation, but also inhibited further growth of HgS crystals and play an important role in the formation of PAM/HgS nanocomposites. In addition, the possible mechanism of HgS nanoparticles growth in PAM solution was also discussed.

The transparent electrode properties of ITO films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering with process pressure were investigated. The ITO thin films was deposited on a glass substrate using a target with 3in diameter sintered at a ratio of $In_2O_3$ : $SnO_2$ (9 : 1). 200-nm-thick ITO thin films were manufactured by various process pressures ($2.0{\times}10^{-2}$, $7.0{\times}10^{-3}$ and $2.0{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr). The optical transmittance and resistivity of the deposited ITO thin films showed a relatively satisfactory result under $10^{-2}$ Torr. For high process pressure, the optical transmittance was below 80%, while for low process pressure, the optical transmittance was above 85%. As a result of of mobility, resistivity and carrier concentration by Hall measurement, we obtained satisfactory properties to apply into a transparent conducting thin film.

Octahedral shaped single crystalline undoped and Ga-doped indium oxide nano-and microcrystals were fabricated using vapor-solid growth process. Effects of Ga doping on the crystallinity, defect structure, and optical properties of the nano-/microstructures have been studied using scanning electron microscopy, microRaman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. It has been observed that incorporation of Ga does not affect the morphology of $In_2O_3$ structures due to its smaller ionic radius, and similar oxidation state as that of In. However, incorporation of Ga in high concentration (~3.31 atom %) causes lattice compression, reduces optical band gap and defect induced CL emissions of $In_2O_3$ nano-/microcrystals. The single crystalline Ga-doped, $In_2O_3$ nano-/microcrystals with low defect contents are promising for optoelectronic applications.

The microwave sintered BaTiO3 samples were obtained by using the microwave sintering device which can precisely control the sintering temperature and the sinter time by using IR optical thermometer and PID temperature controller. During microwave sintering the internal temperature of samples were mesur-ed by the optical fiber thermometer to compare the sintering behaviors between microwave- and con-ventionally sintered ones. The former showed the faster rate of grain growth with sintering time and the larger grain size than the latter. Also they showed the similar pattern of dielectric properties with tem-perature changes from 2$0^{\circ}C$ to 16$0^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, optical tracking and analysis was carried out to find the optical properties with respect to various geometric design parameters of collimator lens which is very efficient when collect the light. As a result, a whole, ellipse incident part can obtain a high light efficiency and a narrow beam angle, and angled cylinder incident part is confirmed to obtain high efficiency and a narrow beam angle at a certain height or more. When Transmission part have a specific surface which can reflect the light in forward direction, a good optical properties was confirmed.

In this paper, CdS thin films, which were widely used window layer of the CdTe and the Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ thin film solar cell, were grown by chemical bath deposition, and effects of pH of reaction solution on the structural and optical properties were investigated. For pH<10.5, as the pH of reaction solution was higher, the deposition rate of CdS films was increased by improving ion-by-ion reaction in the substrate surface and the crystallinity of the films was improved. However, when the pH was higher than 10.5, the deposition rate was decreased because of smaller $Cd^{2+}$ ion concentration in the reaction solution. Also, the crystallinity of the films were deteriorated. The CdS films deposited at lower pH showed poor optical transmittance due to adsorbed colloidal particles, while the transmittance was improved for higher pH.

Nowadays, ZnO thin films are investigated as transparent conductive electrodes for use in optoelectronics devices including flat displays, thin films transistors, solar cells because of their unique optical and electrical properties. For the use as transparent conductive electrodes, a film has to have low resistivity, high absorption in the ultra violent light region and high optical transmission in the visible region. Different technologies such as electron beam evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, laser evaporation, DC and RF magnetron sputtering and have been reported to produce thin films of ZnO with adequate performance for applications. However, highly transparent and conductive doped-ZnO thin films deposited by a metal-organic decomposition method have not been reported before. In this work, the effect of dopant concentration, heating treatment and annealing in areducing atmosphere on the structure, morphology, electrical and optical properties of ZnO thin films deposited on glass substrates by a Sol-gel method are investigated.
