6H-SiC UV photodiodes with $p^+$/n/n mesa structure were fabricated. The photocurrents of the photodiodes were measured in the wavelength range of 200~600 nm. The photocurrents were sensitive to ultraviolet radiation of 200~500 nm, and come to the maximum value at 260 nm. The quantum efficiency was calculated by using the diffusion model of minority carriers, and compared with the distribution of the photocurrent measured as a function of wavelength each other. The photocurrents of the 6H-SiC photodiode were explained by the diffusion model of the minority carriers which contained the optical absorption of the depletion region as well as the other layers.

Color is discerned due to the reflectance of object and its hue is determined by the Ratio of RGB spectrum. The aim of this study is to evaluate the Color information using by the optical system in terms of convenience and simplicity. Firstly, the differential Ratio of RGB is evaluated by photodiode Sensor which achieves a high efficiency with quick tranducer output. To extract the information of RGB Ratio, light emitting diode is built in Color sensing system with photodiode. Our proposed method is very economical, simple, and convenient. Our results can be applied to confirm the accurate information of Color in the research environments and commercial purposes. Thus RGB information can be determined subjectively and thus, the inherent characteristic of Color will be revealed precisely and its related features can be resolved in a real time mode.

In this study, polymer additives were extracted and separated by Soxhlet extraction method and the dissolution-precipitation method from a polycarbonate (optical grade) which completely absorbed UV light below 390 nm. Analytical techniques such as UV-Vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, and HPLC were applied to analyze additives in polycarbonate. Separated materials from the polycarbonate may be a complex mixture containing additives such as UV stabilizer, antioxidants (primary and secondary), monomers, and oligomers. Several compounds such as bisphenol A, Irganox 1010, and Cyasorb UV-5411 were identified by chromatograms and UV spectra obtained from RP HPLC analysis using Bondapak $C_{18}$ column, methanol mobile phase, and a photodiode array (PDA) detector. Also, the content of UV-5411 in the polycarbonate was about 0.12 wt% by a quantitative analysis through UV spectroscopy.

In this paper, we report an InGaAs/InAlAs multi-quantum well (MQW) avalanche photodiode (APD) showing a performance suitable for 10 Gbps lightwave communications. In designing the device, emphasis is given on the effect of indiffusion of Be dopant from the highly doped field layer into the MQW multiplication region. It is found that a small amount of diffusion can alter the dark current and gain characteristics of the device significantly. A spacer used to restrain such indiffusion is shown effective in reducing dark current (500 nA at a gain of 10) while maintaining a high bandwidth (10 GHz at a gain of 10) devices grown by molecular beam epitaxy.

This paper presents performance improvement in optical CDMA system under the presence of beat noise using a cancellation technique. Optical fibers and atmospheric optical communications have been proposed the connection between base stations and central station. The optical signal beat noise is due to interference between lightwave, many optical waves are simultaneously incident on each receiver photodiode. Since the photodiode acts as a square-law detector, beat noise can occur in the receiver. While A two-stage cancellation technique is analyzed and verified via simulation employed here because of its system simplicity. By using the random ingredients of all user signals are estimated, the beat noise is rebuilt and removed from the intended signal. In addition to cancellation technique cancel the inherent multiuser interference (MUI) in CDMA system and nonlinear distortion (NLD) in optical system. It is performed at the receiver of the central station where the random ingredients of all user signals are estimated and the MUI and the NLD are rebuilt and removed from the received signal. The validity of the cancellation technique is theoretically analyzed and shown by numerical results. The increasing of capacity in two stage cancellation are obtained.

In automotive industry, light weight vehicle is one of issues because of the air pollution and the protection of environment. Therefore, automotive manufacturers have tried to apply light materials such as aluminum to car body. Aluminum welding using laser has some advantages high energy density and high productivity. It is very important to understand behavior of plasma and keyhole in order to improve weld quality and monitor the weld state. In this study, spectral analysis was carried out to verify the spectrum for plasma which is generated in laser welding of A 6000 aluminum alloy. Two photodiodes which cover the range of plasma wavelength was used to measure light emission during laser welding according to assist gas flow rate and welding speed. Analysis of relationship between sensor signals of welding variables and formation of keyhole and plasma is performed. To determine the level of significance, analysis of variation (ANOVA) was carried out.

We fabricated a single mode fiber pigtailed PIN-preamplifier front-end receiver module for the high speed optical receiver. Hybrid method was used to integrate GaInAs PIN photodiode and transimpedance type GaAs preamplifier. The capacitance and the diameter of light receiving area of PIN photodiode were 0.35 pF and $20{\mu}m$ respectively. The -3 dB cut-off frequency of PIN-preamplifier module was above 2 GHz, and the sensitivity of the module at 2.5 Gbps NRZ $(PRBS=2^{23}-1)$ signal was -25.2 dBm at $10^{-9}$ BER. > BER.

A microfluidic device for real-time monitoring of residual free chlorine and pH in water based on optical absorption is proposed. The device consists of a serpentine micromixer for mixing samples with a reagent, and a photodiode and light emitting diode(LED) for the detection of light absorbance at specific wavelengths, determined for specific reagent combinations. Spectral analyses of the samples mixed with N, N'-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine(DPD) reagent for chlorine determination and bromothymol blue(BTB) for pH measurement are performed, and the wavelengths providing the most useful linear changes in absorbance with chlorine concentration and pH are determined and used to select the combination of LED and photodiode wavelengths for each analyte. In tests using standard solutions, the device is shown to give highly reproducible results, demonstrating the feasibility of the device for the inexpensive and continuous monitoring of water quality parameters with very low reagent consumption.

In this paper, we implemented a VLC(Visible Light Communication) system capable of transmitting/receiving data on a 30MHz clock based on On/Off keying modulation/demodulation. The data rate of the implemented system can be verified by functional verification of VLC channel composed of LED/photodiode driver and VLC transmitting/receiving signal of Tx/Rx platform. But, In the experimental results with the VLC transmitting/receiving for combined module, the maximum transmission rate was measured at 15 MHz. Therefore, we describe the problems that can occur when implement the VLC system using the LED module with output power of 15W or more and propose ways to improve it.
