As the demand for large flexible displays such as tablet computers continues to rise, there is an increasing need for cost-efficient colorless and optically transparent polyimide film that can meet the desired performance, particularly optical transmittance. In this study, we investigated a detailed procedure for achieving optimal optical transmittance using two different combinations of monomers: 6FDA+BAPB and 6FDA+BPA+TFDB. We employed a design of experiment method to systematically synthesize polymers, allowing for the optimization of optical transmittance. In addition, we were able to achieve uniform thickness in the films by using a doctor blade. By comparing the price and optical transmittance of four different monomer combinations, we obtained fundamental data on the production of polyimide films that can be customized to meet the specific price and performance requirements of manufacturers. This approach enables users to select the most suitable polyimide film based on their desired price and performance parameters while achieving optimal optical transmittance.

$MgF_2$ is a current material used for optical applications in the ultraviolet and deep ultraviolet range. Process variables for manufacturing $MgF_2$ thin film were established in order to clarify the optimum conditions for the growth of the thin film, dependant upon the process conditions, and then by changing a number of the vapor deposition conditions, substrate temperatures, and heat treatment conditions, the structural and optical characteristics were measured. Then, optimum process variables were thus derived. Nevertheless, modern applications still require improvement in the optical and structural quality of the deposited layers. In the present work, in order to understand the composition and microstructure of $MgF_2$, single layers grown on a slide glass substrate using an Electron beam Evaporator (KV-660), were analyzed and compared. The surface substrate temperature, having an effect on the quality of the thin film, was changed from $200^{\circ}C$ to $350^{\circ}C$ at intervals of $50^{\circ}C$. The heat treatment temperature, which also has an effect on the thin film, was changed from $200^{\circ}C$ to $400^{\circ}C$ at intervals of $50^{\circ}C$. The physical properties of the thin film were investigated at various fabrication conditions, such as the substrate temperature, the heat treatment temperature, and the heat treatment time, by X-ray diffraction, and field emission-scanning electron microscopy.

A copper tetracumylphenoxy phthalocyanine (CuPccp) thin film was formed on an organic insulator film by Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition for gas sensor fabrication. To increase the reproducibility of film transfer, stearyl alcohol was used as a transfer promoter. The structural properties of the CuPccp layers were optically monitored through attenuated total reflection and polarization-modulated ellipsometry techniques. The average thickness of a single layer of the CuPccp LB film was measured to be 2.5 nm. Despite the role of the transfer promoter, the stability of the layer transfer was not sufficient to ensure homogeneity of the LB film. This was probably due to the presence of aggregates in the molecular structure of the CuPccp LB film. Nevertheless, copper phthalocyanine polymorphism can be greatly suppressed by the LB arrangement, which appears to contribute to the improvement of electrical conductivity. The p-type semiconductor characteristics were confirmed by Hall measurements from the CuPccp LB films.

We present the optical models and calculation results of thin-film organic solar cells (OSCs) at oblique incidence of light, using the transfer matrix method. The simple expression for the optical power dissipation is derived at oblique incidence for s- and p-polarized light. The spatial distribution of the electric field intensity, the optical power density, and the optical power dissipation are calculated in both s- and p-polarized light with respect to the incidence angle. We identify how the light absorption efficiency for p-polarized light becomes relatively larger than that for s-polarized light as the incidence angle increases.

In order to investigate the ultraviolet-excited photoluminescence properties of phosphor coatings and their relationship to thickness, Lumogen coatings with different thicknesses were deposited on quartz substrates and charge-coupled device chips by thermal evaporation. The variation of the film thickness affected the crystallite size, surface roughness and fluorescence signal. It was found that the Lumogen coating with the thickness of 420 nm has the largest luminescent signal and conversion efficiency, and the corresponding coated charge-coupled devices had the maximum quantum efficiency in the ultraviolet. These results provided one key parameter for improving the sensitivity of Lumogen coated charge-coupled devices to ultraviolet light.

The optical performances of 15-inch edge-lit backlight were simulated by using a Monte Carlo ray-tracing technique. The backlight model was built by combining a wedge-type light guide plate, a diffuser sheet, a tubular fluorescent lamp with a lamp reflector, and two crossed prism sheets. Angular distributions of the luminance on each optical component obtained from simulation were consistent with those obtained from experiments on a real 15-inch backlight. The constructed backlight model was used to evaluate the optical performances of a micro-pyramid film. It was found that the on-axis luminance gain on the pyramid film is higher than that on one prism film but much lower than that on the two crossed prism films. These results suggest that a reliable simulation model can be used to develop new hybrid films and to optimize the optical structure of edge-lit backlight in order to reduce the developmental period.

Multi layered thin films with ZnS/$Na_3AlF_6$/ZnS were deposited on glass substrate by thermal evaporator precess and simulated by using EMP(Essential Macleod Program). EMP is a comprehensive software package to design and analyse the optical characteristics of multi-layered thin film. ZnS and $Na_3AlF_6$ were selected as a high refractive index and low refractive index material respectively. Additionally Cu was chosen as mid reflective material. Optical properties including color effect were systematically studied. in terms of different optical thickness of low refractive index material. The optical thickness of $Na_3AlF_6$ was changed as 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and $1.0\lambda$. The film with 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and $1.0\lambda$. of optical thickness showed mixed color range between bluish green and red purple, yellowish green and bluish green, purple and mixed color range of green and purple respectively.

Irradiation of the metal nanoparticles causes local plasmon resonance in a specific wavelength band, which can improve the absorption and scattering properties of a structure. Since noble metal nanoparticles have better resonance effects than those of other metals, it is easy to identify plasmonic reactions and this is advantageous to find the optical tendency. Compared to having a particle gap or randomly arranged particle structures, densely and evenly packed structures can exhibit more uniform optical properties. Using the uniform properties, the structure can be applied to optical filtering applications. Therefore, in this paper, validation tests about metal nanoparticles and thin film structures are conducted for more accurate analysis. The optical properties of monolayer and bilayer noble metal nanoparticle structures with different diameters, packed in a uniform array, are investigated and their optical trends are analyzed. In addition, a thin film structure under identical conditions as metal nanoparticle structure is evaluated to confirm the improved optical characteristics.

항공기나 대형 플랜트 등의 경년구조물에 있어서 제조 및 설계 혹은 작업환경 등에 의해 발생하는 미소결함은 응력부식파괴로 이어지는 결정적인 원인으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 제조단계에서의 결함의 검출뿐만 아니라 운전개지 후에 있어서도 비파괴검사에 기초를 둔 정기적인 건전성평가가 요구된다. 특히 구조물내의 미소균열 평가는 구조건전성 평가에 있어서 중요한 과제라 할 수 있다. 자기광학소자를 이용한 비파괴탐상법은 균열부근의 누설자속에 의한 자구 및 자벽의 변화를 이용하여 균열정보를 화상형태로 얻는다. 그러므로 빠른 탐상속도와 결과데이터 해석의 용이 그리고 실시간적으로 탐상결과를 획득할 수 있다는 장점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문은 자기광학소자를 이용한 새로운 비파괴적 탐상법을 제안하고, 본 탐상법을 이용하여 구조물에 존재하는 표면결함의 검출가능성 및 균열깊이의 평가를 실증하였다. 표면결함을 갖는 시험편과 파이프의 내면에 존재하는 피로균열을 대상으로 실험을 실시한 결과, 표면결함의 위치 및 2차원적 형상을 화상형식으로 얻을 수 있음을 증명하였다. 또한 피로시험중의 시험편을 대상으로 균열발생 및 균열진전과정을 평가를 통하여 원격탐상의 가능성을 제시하였다.
