We found that saturated water vapor pressure is the most dominant stress factor for the degradation phenomenon in the package for high-power phosphor-converted white light emitting diode (high power LED). Also, we proved that saturated water vapor pressure is effective acceleration stress of LED package degradation from an acceleration life test. Test conditions were $121^{\circ}C$, 100% R.H., and max. 168 h storage with and without 350 mA. The accelerating tests in both conditions cause optical power loss, reduction of spectrum intensity, device leakage current, and thermal resistance in the package. Also, dark brown color and pore induced by hygro-mechanical stress partially contribute to the degradation of LED package. From these results, we have known that the saturated water vapor pressure stress is adequate as the acceleration stress for shortening life test time of LED packages.

We present the thermal analysis result of die bonding for a high power LED package using a metal hybrid silicone adhesive structure. The simulation structure consists of an LED chip, silicone die adhesive, package substrate, silicone-phosphor encapsulation, Al PCB and a heat-sink. As a result, we demonstrate that the heat generated from the chip is easily dissipated through the metal structure. The thermal resistance of the metal hybrid structure was 1.662 K/W. And the thermal resistance of the total package was 5.91 K/W. This result is comparable to the thermal resistance of a eutectic bonded LED package.

We have proposed an application of disturbance observer with PID controller to minimize gain-transient time of wavelength-division-multiplexing(WDM) multi channels in optical amplifier in channel add/drop networks. We have dramatically reduced the gain-transient time to less than $3{\mu}sec$ by applying a disturbance observer with a proportional/integral/ differential(PID) controller to the control of amplifier gain. The theoretical analysis on the 3-level erbium-doped fiber laser and the disturbance observer technique is demonstrated by performing the simulation with co-simulation of the $MATLAB^{TM}$ and a numerical modeling software package such as the $Optsim^{TM}$.

As an upgrade we report the current ASTE ultra-wideband corrugated horn design. The length of the feedhorn gets shortened from 12.5 mm to 11 mm, and it shows better side lobe level at the far-field patterns compared with the previous design. We looked into possible quasi-optical solution to match the feedhorn beam to the optics of the current ASTE telescope, starting from frequency-independent solution using two ellipsoidal mirrors to which wideband performance of the feedhorn naturally fits. We used a commercial physical optics package (GRASP) with an user-defined optimizer to give physical constraints to evaluated optical designs for highest efficiency.

In this paper, we propose the optical system design for a medium sized LED marine lanterns which simplifies the multi-layer structure into a single structure. In order to satisfy the target fixed intensity(35,000cd) and vertical divergence($-2.5^{\circ}{\sim}-4.0^{\circ}$, $+2.5^{\circ}{\sim}+4.0^{\circ}$), we use the total internal reflection collimator lens. And a Monte Carlo simulation has been utilized to optimize a condition of a LED package, TIR lens and outside lens. The computer simulation results indicated that this LED marine lanterns can produce of a fixed intensity(35,382cd) and vertical divergence($-3.1^{\circ}{\sim}+2.5^{\circ}$). Using the this optical system, we achieve the target value of LED lanterns.

Reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers(R-SOAs) were designed with high gain, wide optical bandwidth, high thermal reliability and wide modulation bandwidth in TO-can package for the transmitter of wavelength division multiplexed-passive optical network(WDM-PON) application. Double trench structure and current block layer were introduced in designing the active layer of R-SOA to enable high speed modulation. The injection power requirement and the viable temperature range of WDM-PON system are experimentally analysed in based on Amplified Spontaneous Emission(ASE)-injected R-SOAs. The effect of the different injection spectrum in the gain-saturated R-SOA was experimentally characterized based on the measurements of excessive intensity noise, Q factor, and BER. The proposed spectral pre-composition method reduces the bandwidth of injection source below the AWG bandwidth and thereby avoids spectrum distortion impeding the intensity noise reduction originated from the amplitude squeezing.

Recently, LED is widely used in the kinds of display devices or lighting. In this paper, we fabricated LED chamber light for naval vessels to replace to conventional chamber light using incandescent lamp. The LED package of chamber light was designed with luminous intensity of 5.5 cd, color temperature of $6,000{\pm}500K$, forward voltage of 3~3.2 V and input current of 60 mA. A LED module was composed of 36 LED packages and metal PCB. The VF and luminous intensity of LED package were getting down when temperature increased. The temperature of LED chamber light was measured by changing the number of LED package and applied current for one hour when an electric current flow. The heat transfer capability have been improved by using metal PCB. The power consumption of LED chamber light reduced by 86% compared to the conventional chamber light using incandescent lamp.

The three-dimensional Nano-Electronic Modeling toolkit (NEMO 3-D) is an open source software package that allows the atomistic calculation of single-particle electronic states and optical response of various semiconductor structures including bulk materials, quantum dots, impurities, quantum wires, quantum wells and nanocrystals containing millions of atoms. This paper, first, describes a software module introduced in the NEMO 3-D toolkit for the calculation of electronic bandstructure and interband optical transitions in nanowires having wurtzite crystal symmetry. The energetics (Hamiltonian) of the quantum system under study is described via the tight-binding (TB) formalism (including $sp^3$, $sp^3s^*$ and $sp^3d^5s^*$ models as appropriate). Emphasis has been given in the treatment of surface atoms that, if left unpassivated, can lead to the creation of energy states within the bandgap of the sample. Furthermore, the developed software has been validated via the calculation of: a) modulation of the energy bandgap and the effective masses in [0001] oriented wurtzite nanowires as compared to the experimentally reported values in bulk structures, and b) the localization of wavefunctions and the optical anisotropy in GaN/AlN disk-in-wire nanowires.

In this study a new design concept of the Fabry-Perot filter, constructed with an anisotropic space layer and a couple of isotropic mirrors, was proposed based on the Maxwell equations and the characteristic matrix method. The single- and double-cavity Fabry-Perot filters were designed, and their optical properties were investigated with a developed software package. In addition, the dependence of the transmittance and phase shift for two orthogonal polarization states on the column angle of the anisotropic space layer and the incidence angle were discussed. We demonstrated that the polarization state of electromagnetic waves and phase shifts can be modulated by exploiting an anisotropic space layer in a polarization F-P filter. Birefringence of the anisotropic space layer provided a sophisticated phase modulation with varied incidence angles over a broad range, resulting in a wide-angle phase shift. This new concept would be useful for designing optical components with isotropic and anisotropic materials.

The efficiency of LED package is increasing by applying the high power, and a existing lighting is changing as the LED lighting. However, many problems have appeared by heat. Therefore, in order to solve thermal problems, LED lighting is designing in several ways, but the advantages of LED lighting is fading due to increase the prices and volumes. In this study, we try to improve the thermal performance by formation of via holes. The junction temperature and thermal resistance in the FR4-PCB with via-holes of 0.6[mm] was excellent in experiment and FR4-PCB with Via-holes of 0.6[mm] was excellent in simulation without solder. Further, the thermal resistance and the optical properties can be improved through a formation of via-holes.
