  • Magnetic and magneto-optical properties of Fe/Pt/Fe, Co/Pd/Co trilayers and also the sandwiches with wedge-shaped magnetic (Fe, Co) and nonmagnetic (Pt, Pd) layers were investigated. The oscillatory behavior of the saturation field $H_{s}$ of the studied trilayers with changing the thickness of the nonmagnetic layer (NML) $t_{NML}$ was revealed. That was explained by the exchange coupling between ferromagnetic layers (FML) through the nonmagnetic spacer. For the first time, oscillations of the transverse Kerr effect (TKE) with changing the Pt- and Pd-wedge thickness were discovered. Period of these oscillations was found to depend on the FML thickness and the photon energy of the incident light. TKE spectra of the examined samples were discovered to modify very strongly with increasing $t_{NML}$. The discovered peculiarities of magneto-optical properties of thin-film systems were explained by a concept of the spin-polarized quantum well states in the pt and Pd layers.

  • Coronal mass ejection (CME) plasmas have been observed in EUV and X-ray passbands as well as in white light. Mass of CME has been determined using polarized brightness observed by the Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph Experiment (LASCO) on board Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). Therefore, this mass obtained from the LASCO observation indicates the total CME mass. However, the mass of CME plasma in different temperatures can be determined in EUV and X-ray passbands using observations by SOHO/EIT, STEREO/EUVI, and Hinode/XRT. Prominence/CME plasmas have been observed as absorption or emission features in EUV and X-ray passbands. The absorption features provide a lower limit to cold mass. In addition, the emission features provide an upper limit to the mass of plasmas in temperature ranges of EUV and X-ray. We determine the mass constraints using the emission measure obtained by assuming the prominence/CME structures. This work will address the mass constraints of hot and cold plasmas in CMEs, comparing to total CME mass.

  • The characteristic of pyrolytic carbon deposited in a fluidized bed as measured by density apparent crystallite size and viewed metallographically under polarized light can be easily controlled by adjusting the deposition parameters such as deposition temperature and propane flow rate or silicon content. The density of isotopic pyrolytic carbons deposited from propane between 120$0^{\circ}C$ and 140$0^{\circ}C$ increases with increasing propane flow rate and decreasing deposition temperature from 1, 73g/cc to 2.08g/cc. The apparent crystallite size Lc parameter appears to depend only on deposition temperature being entirely independent of the propane flow rate. The carbon matrix density of the silicon-alloyed carbonds deposited from propane and methyltrichlorosil-ane from 2.05g/cc for a silicon content around 9wt% to 2.67g/cc for a silicon content of 36.7wt% The Lc parameter of the deposition temperature being entirely independent of the silicon content.

  • We have investigated the photoinduced anisotropy in chalcogenide $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin films, non-doped and photodoped by Ag and Cu. The films were exposed by the linearly polarized He-Ne laser light( $\lambda$=632.8nm). The Ag and Cu photodoping resulted in reducing the time of saturation photoinduced linearly dichroism. Also photoinduced linearly dichroism was increased up to maximum 184% by Ag photodoping and 138% by Cu photodoping, respectively. As the result of this study, the linearly dichroism can be interesting for different applications of photoinduced anisotropy. In addition, it will offer lots of information for the photodoping mechanism and analysis of chalcogenide thin film.

  • We investigated the generation of pretilt angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) in a cell with slanted non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on mixtured polyimide (PI) surfaces. It was found that the monodomain alignment of NLC is obtained in a cell with an angle of incidence of 75∼85 degrees on PI surface. We consider that the monodomain alignment of NLC is attributed to anisotropic dispersion force effect due to photo-depolymerization of polymer on Pl surfaces. We successfully observed that the pretilt angle of NLC is generated above 5 degree with an angle of incidence of 75∼85 degree. It is considered that the pretilt angle generation in NLC is attributed to interaction between the LC molecules and the Polymer surfaces.

  • The chalcogenide glasses of thin films have the superior property of photoinduced anisotrophy(PA). In this study, we observed the linear dichroism(D) using the irradiation with polarized He-Ne laser light, in the Ag/As$\sub$40/Ge$\sub$10/Se$\sub$15/S$\sub$35/ multi-layer. Mutilayer structures farmed by alternating metal(Ag) a chalcogenide(As$\sub$40/Ge$\sub$10/Se$\sub$15/S$\sub$35/). Such multilayer structures have a greater sensitivity to illumination and larger dichroism in comparison the conventional double layer structure. Also new phenomena are discovered. These results will be show a capability of new method that suggested more improvement of photoinduced anisotropy property.

  • We investigated the diffraction efficiency, erasing property and rewriting property of diffraction grating with each wavelength of recording beam. A (P:P) polarized light was exposed on AsGeSeS and Ag/AsGeSeS thin film to form a diffraction grating by HeNe(635nm) laser and DPSS(532nm) laser. At the maximum efficiency condition, unpolarized HeNe laser beam was irradiated to erase 1ha generated diffraction grating. The HeNe laser showed more higher diffraction efficiency and the DPSS laser showed more faster diffraction grating time. At erasing and rewriting process, AsGeSeS(61%-85%)thin film showed better property than Ag doped Ag/AsGeSeS(53%-63%) double layer structured thin film.

  • In order to investigate the photoalignment mechanism of nematic liquid crystals on a polymer film, a new photoreactive polymer having chalcone groups as side chains was synthesized. Linearly polarized UV light causes preferential photoreactions of the chalcone unit along the polarization direction and thus induces the anisotrpy in the polymer alignment layer resulting in homogeneous LC alignment perpendicular to the polarization direction. The sequential investigations of photoalignment generated by the preferential E/Z isomerization and (2+2) cycloaddition reactions show that either photoreaction can solely induce the LC alignment in the direction perpendicular to UV polarization.

  • In this paper we investigate the phase modulation efficiency in the electrooptic phase modulator using PPpinNN GaAs/AlGaAs W-type waveguide. The phase change is affected by the refractive index change taking place inside the depletion region. The behavior of the modulator can be understood in terms of two electric field-related and two carrier-related effects linear electrooptic, quadratic electrooptic, plasma, and bandgap shift. As a result, the phase modulation efficiency was measured about 34.6($^{\circ}$/V$.$mm) for the TE polarized light. The quadratic electrooptic coefficient R 5.82${\times}$10$\^$-15/($\textrm{cm}^2$/V$^2$) is Obtained ant the Phase efficiency Caused by the quadratic electrooptic effect is about 10 times larger than that from the conventional linear electrooptic effect.
