Lumichrome (7,8-dimethylalloxazine) exhibits two fluorescence emission maxima at 440 and 540 nm in pyridine-dioxane. These emission band maxima are attributable to radiative decays from the excited states of lumichrome and its flavin tautomer, 7,8-dimethylisoalloxazine, respectively. The growth of the latter can be followed upon excitation of the former with a 2-nanosecond light pulse generated from the nitrogen plasma discharge lamp. The excited state tautomerism results from proton transfer from N-1 to N-10 position during the lifetime of the lumichrome singlet excited state. The rate depends on the concentration of general base, pyridine, and it is an order of magnitude slower than diffusion-controlled processes.

We report a new method of measuring the non-radiative recombination rate in bulk Silicon. Synchrotron timeresolved x-ray scattering (TRXS) combines femtometer spatial sensitivity with nanosecond time resolution to record the temporal evolution of a crystal lattice following intense ultrafast laser excitation. Modeling this data requires an Auger recombination time that is considerably slower than previous measurements, which were made at lower laser intensities while probing only a relatively shallow surface depth. We attribute this difference to an enhanced Coulomb interaction that has been predicted to occur in bulk materials with high densities of photoexcited charge carriers.

An external electrode fluorescent lamps (EEFLs) have the advantage of a long lifetime in the early stages of the study on plasma discharge, interest in the lamp continues. Studies on the operation of external electrode fluorescent lamps have focused mainly on its use of a type of high frequency (MHz). By performing high brightness using a square wave operation method with the low frequency below 100kHz, which is applied to a narrowed tube type lamp that has several mm of lamp diameter. To solve these problems of CCFL, EEFL (External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp) is introduced. Because electrode of EEFL is on the outer surface of discharge tube, the electrode is perfectly prevented from the sputtering by accelerated ions. And it is possible to drive the many CCFLs at the same time, because EEFL shows the positively resistant characteristic. But EEFL has the large non-radiative power loss in sheath. In this study the novel electrode structure was introduced in order to reduce non-radiative power loss in sheath of EEFL. The novel electrode structure comes from the idea to combine conceptually capacitive discharge with inductive discharge. Thus, this study verifies the change in the optical characteristics according to the change in electrode structure through a Maxwell's electromagnetic field simulation and examines the relationship between the change in the EEFL electrode structure and brightness by measuring the optical characteristics.

Spectroscopic and thermal analysis indicates that tellurite glasses doped with $B_2O_3$ and $GeO_2$ are promising candidate host materials for wide-band erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) with a high 980 nm pump efficiency. In this study, we measured the thermal stabilities and the emission cross-sections for $Er^{3+}:^{4}I_{13/2}\;{\to}\;^{4}I_{15/2}$ transition in this tellurite glass system. We also determined the Judd-Ofelt parameters and calculated the radiative transition rates and the multiphonon relaxation rates in this glass system. The 15 mol% substitution of $B_2O_3$ for $TeO_2$ in the $Er^{3+}-doped\;75TeO_2-20ZnO-5K_2O$ glass raised the multiphonon relaxation rate for $^4I_{11/2}\;{\to}\;^4I_{13/2}$ transition from 4960 $s^{-1}$ to 24700 $s^{-1}$, but shortened the lifetime of the $^4I_{13/2}$ level by 14 % and reduced the emission cross-section for the $^4I_{13/2}\;{\to}\;^4I_{15/2}$ transition by 11%. The 15 mol% $GeO_2$ substitution in the same glass system also reduced the emission cross-section but increased the lifetime by 7%. However, the multiphonon relaxation rate for $^4I_{11/2}{\to}^4I_{13/2}$ transition was raised merely by 1000 $s^{-1}$. Therefore, a mixed substitution of $B_2O_3$ and $GeO_2$ for $TeO_2$ was concluded to be suitable for the 980 nm pump efficiency and the fluorescence efficiency of $^4I_{13/2}{\to}^4I_{15/2}$ transition in $Er^{3+}-doped$ tellurite glasses.

Gas materials in the inner Galactic disk continuously migrate toward the Galactic center (GC) due to interactions with the bar potential, magnetic fields, stars, and other gaseous materials. In case of the Milky Way, those in forms of molecules appear to accumulate around 200 pc from the center (the central molecular zone, CMZ) to form stars there and further inside. The bar potential in the GC is thought to be responsible for such acculmulation of molecules and subsequent star formation, which is believed to have been continous throughout the lifetime of the Galaxy. We present 3-D hydrodynamic simulations of the CMZ that consider self-gravity, radiative cooling, and supernova feedback, and discuss the efficiency and role of the star formation in that region. We find that the gas accumulated in the CMZ by a bar potential of the inner bulge effectively turns into stars, supporting the idea that the stellar cusp inside the central 200 pc is a result of the sustained star formation in the CMZ. The obtained star formation rate in the CMZ, 0.03-0.1 Msun, is consistent with the recent estimate based on the mid-infrared observations by Yusef-Zadeh et al. We discuss the secular evolution of nuclear bulges in general, based on our results.

ZnO thin films were grown on porous silicon (PS) by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE). The optical properties of the ZnO thin films grown on PS were studied using room-temperature, low-temperature, and temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL). The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the near-band-edge emission (NBE) from the ZnO thin films was 98 meV, which was much smaller than that of ZnO thin films grown on a Si substrate. This value was even smaller than that of ZnO thin films grown on a sapphire substrate. The Huang-Rhys factor S associated with the free exciton (FX) emission from the ZnO thin films was found to be 0.124. The Eg(0) value obtained from the fitting was 3.37 eV, with ${\alpha}=3.3{\times}10^{-2}eV/K$ and ${\beta}=8.6{\times}10^3K$. The low- and high-temperature activation energies were 9 and 28 meV, respectively. The exciton radiative lifetime of the ZnO thin films showed a non-linear behavior, which was established using a quadratic equation.

We investigate transmission of light in nanoscale structures. We present spatial and temporal domain measurements of the dephasing of surface plasmon excitations in metal films with periodic nano-hole arrays. By probing coherent spatial SP propagation lengths of a few f1. $\mu$m and an ultrafast decay of the SP polarization on a 10 fs timescale, we demonstrate that the SP transmission peaks are homogeneously broadened by the SP radiative lifetime. The pronounced wavelength and hole size dependence of the dephasing rate shows that the microscopic origin of the conversion of SP into light is a Rayleigh-like scattering by the periodic hole array. We have experimentally studied the dephasing of surface plasmon excitations in metallic nano-hole arrays. By relating nanoscopic SP propagation, ultrafast light transmission and optical spectra, we demonstrate that the transmission spectra of these plasmonic bandgap structures are homogeneously broadened. The spectral line shape and dephasing time are dominated by Rayleigh scattering of SP into light and can varied over a wide range by controlling the resonance energy and/or hole radius. This opens the way towards designing SP nano-optic devices and spatially and spectrally tailoring light -matter interactions on nanometer length scales.

There have been numerous efforts to enhance the efficiency of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by using low dimensional structures such as quantum dots (QDs), wire (QWRs), and wells (QWs). We demonstrate QD/QWR/QW hybrid structured LEDs by using nano-scaled pyramid structures of GaN with ~260 nm height. Photoluminescence (PL) showed three multi-peak spectra centered at around 535 nm, 600 nm, 665 nm for QWs, QWRs, and QDs, respectively. The QD emission survived at room temperature due to carrier localization, whereas the QW emission diminished from 10 K to 300 K. We confirmed that hybrid LEDs had zero-, one-, and two-dimensional behavior from a temperature-dependent time-resolved PL study. The radiative lifetime of the QDs was nearly constant over the temperature, while that of the QWs increased with increasing temperature, due to low dimensional behavior. Cathodoluminescence revealed spatial distributions of InGaN QDs, QWRs, and QWs on the vertices, edges, and sidewalls, respectively. We investigated the blue-shifted electroluminescence with increasing current due to the band-filling effect. The hybrid LEDs provided broad-band spectra with high internal quantum efficiency, and color-tunability for visible light-emitting sources.

KURT(KAERI Underground Research Tunnel) 지하수에 존재하는 천연 유기물질과 6가 우라늄(U(VI))화학종의 상호작용을 레이저 분광학 기술을 이용하여 조사하였다. 지하수 시료에 266 nm 파장의 레이저 빛을 입사시켜 자외선 및 파란색 파장 영역에서 방출되는 천연 유기물질의 발광 스펙트럼을 관측하였다. $0.034-0.788mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 농도 범위의 우라늄이 함유된 지하수에서는 녹색 파장 영역에서 방출되는 U(VI) 화학종의 발광 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 지하수에 함유된 U(VI) 화학종의 발광 특성(피크 파장 및 발광 수명)이 실험실에서 제조한 표준용액에 함유된 $Ca_2UO_2(CO_3)_3(aq)$의 발광 특성과 매우 유사하다는 것을 확인하였다. 지하수에 존재하는 U(VI) 화학종의 발광 세기는 표준용액에 함유된 같은 농도의 $Ca_2UO_2(CO_3)_3(aq)$의 발광세기에 비해 약하다. 표준용액의 $Ca_2UO_2(CO_3)_3(aq)$를 천연 유기물질이 함유된 지하수에 섞었을 때에도 $Ca_2UO_2(CO_3)_3(aq)$의 발광 세기가 감소한다. 이러한 현상의 원인을 지하수의 천연 유기물질과 Ca-U(VI)-탄산염 화학종의 상호작용으로 인해 비발광성 U(VI) 착물이 형성되기 때문인 것으로 설명하였다.

발사 이전에 OSMI 모의 복사량을 산출함은 실제로 관측할 자료를 추정하고, 자료처리를 위한 준비에 매우 유용하다. 1999년 발사예정인 다목적 실용위성의 탑재체 중의 하나인 OSMI 자료처리 시스템은 SeaWIFS 자료처리 시스템을 OSMI에 맞추어 재개발된 것이다. 모의 복사량 계산은 OSMI 센서의 파장대역 및 스캔방식, 다목적 실용위성의 궤도에 관한 정보가 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 대양에서의 OSMI 모의 복사량을 산출하기 위해 CZCS에서 관측한 엽록소를 다목적 실용위성이 관측한다는 가정을 하게 되었다. 궤도 예측에는 수정된 Brouwer-Lyddane 모델이, water-leaving 복사량을 산출하기 위해 CZCS 엽록소 농도가, OSMI가 관측할 대기에 의한 복사량 계산에는 여러 가지 복사모델이 이용되었다. OSMI의 412, 443, 490, 555, 765, 865nm 6가시광선 파장대역에서 모의 복사량을 산출하였다. 예상대로, 총 복사량 중 water-leaving 복사량은 아주 작으며 (10% 미만), 태양해면반사에 의한 영향은 태양 적위 근처에서 관측된다. 그러므로 대기보정은 총 복사량으로부터 엽록소 농도를 계산하는데 매우 중요하다. 태양해면반사에 의해 영향을 받는 자료는 사용할 수 없으므로 OSMI 임무 기간내에 지속적인 전구 해양관측을 위해서는 체계적인 자료수집 계획이 요구된다.
