We describe an optimal alignment method for improving accuracy of dynamic spectroscopic polarimeter based on monolithic polarizing interferometer. The dynamic spectroscopic polarimeter enables real-time measurements of spectral ellipsometric parameters by using a spectral carrier frequency concept. However, the non-polarizing beam splitter used in the monolithic polarizing interferometer cannot maintain the polarization state perfectly due to phase retardation caused by optical anisotropic characteristics of the non-polarizing beam splitter, resulting in degraded measurement accuracy. The effect of the beam splitter can be minimized through optimal alignment of the polarizers used in the polarizing interferometer and the analyzer. We demonstrate how much the proposed alignment method can enhance the measurement accuracy by comparing with previous alignment approach.

The polarization characteristics of poly(vinyl alcohol)-iodine complex, (PVA-KI system) prepared by the oxidation process of PVA film containing a potassium iodide (KI) were investigated. The UV-visible spectrum of the PVA-KI system polarizing film showed avsorption bands corresponding to $I^{-}$, $I{_3}{^-}$ and $I{_5}{^-}$ chromophoric species at 220 nm, 290~360 nm, respectively. The polarization efficiency and transmittance of PVA-KI system film were significantly influenced by oxidation time, stretching ratio and concentration of KI. The prepared polarizing film exhibited a high polarization efficiency(99.5%) and transmittance(45%). Especially, the heat resistance of the polarizing film was higher than that of a commercial PVA-$I_2$ polarizing film. It may be argued that the result should come from a difference in oxidation process of PVA polarizing film.

Surface treatment using UV irradiation was carried out to improve optical properties of polarizing films. The effects of UV energy of the UV-treated PVA films were investigated by measuring reflectance, surface roughness, contact angles, ESCA, and ATR. Reflectance decreased at wavelength of 450 nm or less and surface roughness increased with increasing UV energy. Water contact angle increased in the irradiated PVA films and surface energy decreased with increase in w energy. An analysis showed that the OH groups were broken and some new groups were introduced such as C=C and C=O bonds together with increased $O_{1s}/C_{1s}$, resulting in the observed surface modification effect. Surface modified PVA polarizing films showed improvement in light transmittance of polarizing films at high wavelength region without deteriorating polarization efficiency, which was not affected by UV irradiation sequence during manufacturing processes such as coloring and drawing.

We proposed the two-dimensional (2D) / three-dimensional (3D) convertible modified integral imaging system using functional polarizing film named $imazer^{TM}$, which transfer or scatter the incident light ray according to the polarizing direction of ray. When the incident light rays transfer to $imazer^{TM}$, the rays generate 3D image through the process of the modified integral imaging system. However, the scattered light rays generate 2D image through the simple backlight scheme when the incident rays are scattered by the film. The proposed method can be implemented the partial 3D display system without any mechanical movements. In this paper, we propose and verify our system using some basic experiments and its results.

Automatic defect inspection system is composed of the step in the pre-processing, defect candidate detection, and classification. Polarizing films containing various defects should be minimized over-detection for classifying defect blobs. In this paper, we propose a defect detection algorithm using a skewness of histogram for minimizing over-detection. In order to detect up defects with similar to background pixel, we are used the characteristics of the local region. And the real defect pixels are distinguished from the noise using the probability density function. Experimental results demonstrated the minimized over-detection by utilizing the artificial images and real polarizing film images.

Thin solid film systems polarizing beam splitter and disk amplifier used in the high power laser system ({{{{ lambda }}0=1060nm) are designed by computer aided optimization technique. Extinction ratio of designed polarizing beam splitter for incidence angle 30$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$, 55.60$^{\circ}$ are 1:93, 1:895, 1:1991. respectively. Maximum reflectance of designed thin film system of disk amplifier is less than 3% for pumping band (500-900nm) and 0.15% for laser beam. Further, SiO film chosen as one of the suitable thin films in the high power laser system is prepared by the sol=-gel process which gives high damage threshold. When the withdrawal speed is 6.15cm/min -16.62 cm/min and the mixing ratio is in the range of 1 mol (ethylsilicate): 4-8mol(ethylalcohol) : 2mol(water), the thickness of deposited film is in the range of 500{{{{ ANGSTROM }}-1500{{{{ ANGSTROM }}.

In the mixed system of supercritical carbon dioxide/organic solvents, poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) film of high degree of hydrolysis could be dyed with a dichroic dye of C. I. direct black 22(DB22) and as a result, high durability was obtained. Especially, as a dye dispersant in a supercritical fluid phase, a mixed solvent system of ethylene glycol: dimethyl sulfoxide=4 : 6 weight ratio was investigated. Then the optimum pressure for dyeing could be reduced down to 200 bar. Using this supercritical fluid system, the maximum dyeing appeared as the transmittance of less than 1% and the waste amount was reduced to the level of 1/10. After 500% drawing of this PVA film, both the polarizing efficiency of 94% and the single piece transmittance of 30% were obtained. The limitation of DB22 and further improvements were also discussed.

The image projected onto the screen of the floating hologram is no more than a two-dimensional image. Although it creates an illusion that an object appears to float in space as it moves around while showing its different parts. This paper has proposed a novel method of floating 3D hologram display to view stereoscopic three-dimensional images without putting on glasses. The system is comprised of a sharkstooth scrim screen, projector, polarizing filter for the projector, and a polarizing film to block the image projected from the sham screen. As part of the polarization characteristics, the background image and the front object have completely been separated from each other with the stereoscopic 3D effect successfully implemented by the binocular disparity caused by the distance between the two screens.

UVO-Multiband Polarizing Imager System (UVOMPIS) is an ultraviolet to visible light multi-wavelength polarization/imaging system for Compact Advanced Satellite. We developed Linear Astigmatism Free-Three Mirror System (LAF-TMS) D200F2 as an optical system of UVOMPIS which has an entrance pupil diameter of 200 mm, a focal ratio of 2, a field of view of 2° × 4°. LAF-TMS is a confocal off-axis reflecting telescope system that removes linear astigmatism, and its all mirrors (M1, M2, M3) are optimized with the freeform surface to reduce high-order aberrations. Through the sensitivity analysis and Monte-Carlo simulation as the tolerance analysis, we can confirm the feasibility of the system, relatively sensitive parameters (tilt, decenter, despace, surface RMS error), and considerations for optomechanical design. From the sensitivity analysis, we can discover the relatively sensitive optical alignment parameters to a single perturbation. Further more, in the monte-carlo simulation, we investigate the minimum tolerance budget satisfying the required optical performance and whether the tolerance range is satisfied within manufacturing error.
