Recently, microcavity is studied to reduce the optical loss of BLU and OLED. In this paper, we suggest applying microcavity to photo-luminescent lamp with plasma discharge technology to meet the display applications for a BLU for LCD. The structure of photo-luminescent lamp consists of SUS foil and ITO glass with microcavity. The opto-electric characteristics of photo-luminescent lamp with microcavity was evaluated. The brightness of photo-luminescent device was increased over $111cd/m^2$ with the adaptation of patterned microcavity at $30{\mu}m$. The 3D optical simulation verified the enhanced light outcoupling when microcavity applied to the device.

Fabrications of metal-organic hybrid networks attracted much attention due to possible applications in gas storages, heterogeneous catalyses, information storages, and opto-electronic devices. One way to construct three-dimensional hybrid structures is to make the arrays of planar or linear metal-organic hybrid structures which are linked through electrostatic interactions. As a model study, we fabricated the arrays of one-dimensional hybrid chains and investigated inter-chain interactions between adjacent hybrid chains using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) on Ag(111). Brominated anthracene molecules were used to grow the arrays of hybrid chains on Ag(111). We proposed atomic models for the observed structures. Linear chains are made of repetition of Ag-anthracene units. Br atoms are attached to anthracene molecules through Br-H structures which mediate inter-chain interactions. Two different apparent heights were observed in anthracene molecules. Molecules having a Br-H connection look brighter than those with two connections due to electronic effect. When a chain is laterally manipulated with STM tip, Br atoms move together with the chain implying that Br-H inter-chain interactions are quite strong.

Transparent conductive thin films have found many application in many active and passive electronic and opto-electronic devices as like flat Panel display electrode and window heat mirror, etc. Low resistivity and high transmittance of this films can be obtained by controlling deposition parameters, which are oxygen partial Pressure, substrate temperature and dopant concentration. In this study, We prepared non-stoichiometric and Sb-doped thin films of tin dioxide by reactive DC magnetron sputtering technology. The lowest resistivity of about $3.0{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}cm$ and 80% transmittance in the visible light region have heed obtained at optimal deposition condition.

Transparent conductive thin films have found many applications in active and passive electronic and opto-electronic devices such as flat panel display electrode, solar cell electrode and window heat mirror, etc. Low resistivity and high transmittance of these films can beotained by controlling deposition parameters which are oxygen partial pressure, substrate temperature and dopant concentration. In this study, non-stoichiometric and Sb-doped thin electrical properties of undoped films have been degraded with increase of substrate temperature and optical properties have been improved in Sb-doped films. The resistivity of $2.5\times10^{-3}\Omega\textrm{cm}$,/TEX>, average transmittance of 80% and sheet resistance of 130$\Omega$/$\square$ at thickess of 2000 $\AA$ could be obrained at optmal condimal conditions which were at $400^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature, 58% of oxygen partial pressure and 5% of Sb doping concentration.

Chalcogenide glasses have been investigated in their thermodynamic, structural, and optical properties for application in various opto-electronic devices. In this study, the $Sb_{20}Se_{80-x}Ge_x$ with x = 10, 15, 20, and 25 were selected to investigate the glass stability according to germanium ratios. The thermal, structural, and optical properties of these glasses were measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and UV-Vis-IR Spectrophotometry, respectively. The DSC results revealed that $Ge_{20}Sb_{20}Se_{60}$ composition showing the best glass stability theoretically results due to a lower glass transition activation energy of 230 kJ/mol and higher crystallization activation energy of 260 kJ/mol. The structural and optical analyses of annealed thin films were carried out. The XRD analysis reveals obvious results associated with glass stabilities. The values of slope U, derived from optical analysis, offered information on the atomic and electronic configuration in Urbach tails, associated with the glass stability.

During the last 20 years organic semiconductors have attracted considerable attention due to their interesting physical properties followed by various technological applications in the area of electronics and opto-electronics. It has been a long time since organic solar cells were expected as a low-cost energy-conversion device. Although practical use of them has not been achieved, technological progress continues. Morphology of the materials, organic/inorganic interface, metal cathodes, molecular packing and structural properties of the donor and acceptor layers are essential for photovoltaic response. We have fabricated solar cell devices based on zinc-phthalocyanine(ZnPc) as donor(D) and fullerine$(C_{60})$ as electron acceptor(A) with doped charge transport layers, $Alq_3$ as an electron transport or injection layer. We observed the photovoltaic characteristics of the solar celt devices using the Xe lamp as a light source.

Transparent and conducting IGZO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering on thin Cu coated glass substrates to investigate the effect of a Cu buffer layer on the structural, optical, and electrical film properties. Although X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that both the IGZO single layer and IGZO/Cu bi-layered films were in the amorphous phase, the IGZO/Cu films showed a lower resistivity of 5.7×10⁻⁴ Ωcm due to the increased mobility and high carrier concentration. The decreased optical transmittance of the IGZO/Cu films was also attributed to a one order of magnitude higher carrier concentration than the IGZO films. From the observed results, the thin Cu layer is postulated to be an effective buffer film that can enhance the opto-electrical performance of the IGZO films in transparent thin film transistors.

The feasibility of producing a practical buried fiber optic sensor with high sensitivity for detecting intruders is demonstrated. Experiments were carried out with the use of an all fiber Michelson interferometer, the sensing arm of which was buried in sand. When the sensing arm was buried 8 inches deep in sand, the pressure length product required for a half fringe shift in: the sensor output was $1.09\;kPa{\cdot}m$. The relation between the applied weight and the phase change was almost linear. Experimental results indicated that the sensitivity of the optical fiber sensor was sufficient to detect people on foot and vehicles passing over the buried fiber.

A silver indium sulfide($AgInS_2$) epilayer was grown by the hot wall epitaxy method, which has not been reported in the literature. The grown $AgInS_2$ epilayer has found to be a chalcopyrite structure and evaluated to be high qualify crystal. From the photocurrent measurement in the temperature range from 30 K to 300 K, the two peaks of A and B were only observed, whereas the three peaks of A, B, and C were seen in the PC spectrum of 10 K. These peaks. are ascribed to the band-to-band transition. The valence band splitting of $AgInS_2$ was investigated by means of the photocurrent measurement. The crystal field splitting, $\ddot{A}cr$, and the spin orbit splitting, $\ddot{A}so$, have been obtained to be 0.150 eV and 0.009 eV at 10 K, respectively. And, the energy band gap at room temperature has been determined to be 1.868 eV. Also, the temperature dependence of the energy band gap, $E_g(T)$, was determined.
