This paper dealt with the design and fabrication of an energy saving light emitting diode (LED) fishing lamp. Most fishes such as a squid, horse mackerel, mackerel, sardine and scabbard fish have characteristics for phototaxis and fishing lamps have promoted the fishery efficiency using their photo-reaction. In these days, metal halide lamp (MHL) as the fishing lamp, which consumes 1.5 kW and radiates harmful ultraviolet rays are mainly used. To develop the LED-fishing lamp, the penetration depth in sea water and the photo-reaction of a squid as light wavelength were studied. The experimental results showed the both characteristics were existed in blue color around 470 nm. Based on the results, we manufactured a 160 W and blue LED-fishing lamp which is consume about one-nine of 1.5 kW MHL. As energy saving effect, the use of LED-fishing lamp can reduce 128 kWh per an hour which is correspond to $CO_2$ of 86 kg for a 22ton-fishing boat equipped with 80-1.5 kW MHL. Now, the prototype LED fishing lampsare being evaluated on two fishing boats.

In this paper, we propose a LED communication based multi-hop audio data transmission network system. The main contribution and features of the proposed system are as follows. First, the contribution of this research is to develope the LED communication based multi-hop transmission network system which can transmit audio data signal with long distance via multi-hops. Second, the developed system has the following features: In transmitter, audio data is transmitted after encoding with S/PDIF format via a general LED. The relay receives digital audio signal by using photo diode and then transmits the signal to receiver after error checking and amplifying. The receiver receives the encoded audio data via photo diode and then converts to analog audio signal by using decoding and amplifying. The performance evaluation of the proposed system is conducted in the laboratory with fluorescent light source. The results of the performance evaluation confirm that the system can provide high quality audio transmission from transmiter to receiver via multi-hop relays in a long distance while we can see there are differences in the transmitted audio quality according to the used LED colors.

Schottky type A $l_{0.33}$G $a_{0.67}$N ultraviolet photodetectors were fabricated on the MOCVD grown AlGaN/ $n^{＋}$-GaN and AlGaN/AlGaN interlayer/ $n^{＋}$-GaN structures. The grown layers have the carrier concentrations of -$10^{18}$, and the mobilities were 236 and 269 $\textrm{cm}^2$/V.s, respectively. After mesa etching by ICP etching system, the Si3N4 layer was deposited for passivation between the contacts and Ti/AL/Ni/Au and Pt were deposited for ohmic and Schottky contact, respectively. The fabricated Pt/A $l_{0.33}$G $a_{0.67}$N Schottky diode revealed a leakage current of 1 nA for samples with interlayer and 0.1$\mu\textrm{A}$ for samples without interlayer at a reverse bias of -5 V. In optical measurement, the Pt/A $l_{0.33}$G $a_{0.67}$N diode with interlayer showed a cut-off wavelength of 300 nm, a prominent responsivity of 0.15 A/W at 280 nm and a UV-visible extinction ratio of 1.5x$10^4./TEX>.

Due to explosive increase of internet usage, broadband data transmission using optical fibers is broadly used. In order to decrease distortion during long distance transmission, the optical signal need to be restored, typically, by converting the optical signal into the electrical signal. The optical signal is converted into the electrical signal using a photo-diode, and then a clock-and-recovery (CDR) circuit is used to recover the clock and retime the data. In this study, a clock-and-data recovery circuit has been designed using a standard 1.8 V $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CMOS process. With this CDR circuit, the improved phase detector and charge pump have been utilized. Also, by using a ring oscillator, the CDR circuit can recover clock and data from broadband multi-rate data ranging between 750 Mb/s and 2.85 Gb/s.

In the recent year, along with the rapid development of LED technology, many applications using LEDs have been researched and indoor positioning is one of them. In particular, previous indoor positioning systems based on visible light communication combine triangulation manner such as AoA, ToA TDoA. But most of them needs transmitting unique ID of each LED panel. In this paper, we propose an non LED-ID based indoor positioning system in which the visible light radiated from LEDs is used to locate the position of receiver. Compared to current indoor positioning systems using LED light, our system has the advantages of simple implementation, low cost and high accuracy. Through the computer simulation, our system can achieve a high estimation accuracy of 3.6cm in average in the $5{\times}5{\times}3m^3$ room.

기존의 고출력 광원들이 환경문제 등으로 외국에서 규제대상으로 지정되고 있는 가운데고체 상태의 광원인 Light-emitting diode (LED)는 기존의 광원에 비해 에너지 절감효과 크기 때문에 인해 널리 사용되고 있는 추세이다. 대부분의 백색 LED의 경우 청색 LED에 황색 형광체를 사용하는 것이 일반적이다. 그러나 이의 경우 빛의 흡수와 재방출 과정에서 생기는 에너지 변환손실의 문제가 불가피하다. 또한, 두 종류의 색을 섞어서 나타나는 낮은 연색성의 문제가 있고 사용할 수 있는 형광체의 종류와 조합도 일본 등 해외에 출원된 특허권으로 연구개발에 어려움이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 형광체를 사용하지 않는 단일 백색 LED를 개발을 위하여 극성과 반극성을 조합한 구조를 연구하였다. Photo-lithography를 이용하여 다양한 크기와 구조의 홀 패턴을 얻을 수 있었으며, metal organic chemical vapor deposition을 이용하여 다양한 형태의 피라미드 구조를 성장할 수 있었다. 패턴의 홀 크기와 홀 사이의 간격을 조절하면서 성장을 진행 하였고, 그 결과 pyramid와 truncated pyramid 모양의 GaN 구조를 성장할 수 있었다. [그림 1] Pyramid 구조의 반극성 면과 truncated pyramid 구조의 극성 면사이의 성장속도 차이 때문에 양자우물의 두께가 달라짐을 확인하였다. 이로 인해 양자구속효과가 달라져 다른 파장의 발광을 기대할 수 있었다. 뿐만 아니라 In의 확산거리가 Ga보다 길어서 홀사이 간격을 달리하면 In조성비가 달라지는 효과가 있음을 확인하였고 다양한 홀 사이 간격으로부터 각기 다른 파장의 발광을 얻을 수 있었다. 파장을 조금 더 상세하게 분석하기 위하여 Photoluminescence과 Cathodoluminescence을 사용하였다. 이로써 여러 파장을 발광하는 패턴을 섞어 넓은 영역의 발광 스펙트럼을 만들었다. 특히 패턴을 섞는 방법도 홀과 에피 구조를 섞는 방법, 크기가 다른 홀 패턴을 배열하는 방법등 다양히 하며 가장 좋을 패턴을 연구하였다. 그리하여 최적의 패턴과 구조, 성장조건을 찾아 백색의 CIE 좌표값을 얻을 수 있었다.

The increase in the number of mud shrimps Upogebia major is a concern because of their negative effects on shellfish aquaculture, including Manila clam Venerupis philippinatum along the west coast of Korea. This study developed a behavioral analysis system for aquatic animals using a set of monochromatic light-emitting diode (LED) modules covering the visible light range at similar intervals. Movements of mud shrimp were monitored using a tracking system under illumination with infra-red light and an LED of 660 nm wavelength without provoking stimulation. The minimum light intensity needed to induce a photoresponse by the mud shrimp was $10{\mu}mole/m^2/s$ under the conditions tested. Of the six kinds of LED illuminations tested, the most sensitive response was obtained with illumination with the 505 nm LED, followed in order by LEDs with peak wavelengths of $525nm{\fallingdotseq}465nm$ > $405nm{\fallingdotseq}590nm$ > 660 nm. These findings should help to identify LED sources that efficiently induce movement of the mud shrimp and also for monitoring movement without stimulating.

As a popularity of a portable digital device such as a cellular phone, a digital camera and a MP3 player is spreading, the demand of the mobile storage device increases rapidly. A bluray technology using 405nm laser diode and objective lens having high NA(Numerical Aperture), 0.85, satisfies a miniaturization and a high capacity which are the requirements of the portable device. To develop SFFOP(small form factor optical pickup), it is prerequisite to minimize the number of optical components and establish evaluation and assembly method of micro optical pickup system as well as mass production method of micro optical component. To minimize optical elements of optical pickup, there have been many researches to use P-HOE(Polarized Holographic Optical Element) due to its extremely small size and versatile function. However, P-HOE is handled and assembled very accurately in SFFOP. In this paper, static error signal detection method is developed for an alignment of P-HOE in SFFOP. Using developed static error signal detection method, P-HOE can be aligned very accurately with real time result of static error signals of pickup such as FES(focusing error signal) and TES(Tracking Error Signal). The developed static error signal detection method is verified by the evaluation of commercialized DVD Pickup. And finally. developed static error signal detection method is applied for the assembly of P-HOE in SFFOP system satisfies specification of BD(Blu-ray Disk).
