Recently, according to the rapid development of display, many display applications, such as, cellular phone, navigation, monitor and LCD TV have been changed from CRT type to LCD type. BLU(Back Light Unit) is one of main parts in LCD unit and generally, it consists of a light source, a reflective sheet, a LGP(Light Guide Plate), a diffuser sheet, and two prism sheets. The most important component of BLU is a light guide plate, which diffuses the input light to the TFT-LCD module uniformly. The LGP is usually made by injection molding process, and it has numerous optical micro patterns on the surface. In the present study the micro-patterned stamper which has cylindrical shape was fabricated by using the UV-LiGA process. And the replication characteristics have been compared among three different kinds of injection molding process; general injection molding, injection/compression molding and RHCM(Rapid Heating and Cooling Molding). Average replication ratios of CIM and ICM were 19.1% and 64.6%, respectively. On the other hand, the average replication ratio of RHCM process showed the higher value of 98.4% among these. It show that maintaining the mold surface above $T_g$ could increase the replication ratio of micro patterns substantially.

태양전지의 표면으로 입사되는 빛은 태양전지의 내부로 모두 흡수되지 못하고 그 일부가 기판 표면에서 반사되어 손실이 발생한다. 때문에 기판 표면의 반사손실을 줄이거나 태양전지 내부의 생성 전하를 증기시키기 위한 연구가 많이 진행 중이다. 본 논문에서는 유리 기판의 표면을 습식 에칭하여 표면을 거칠게 형성하는 표면 처리를 진행하였으며, 거칠어진 표면의 구조적 특성을 분석하였다. 그리고 빛이 입사되는 유리 기판의 각도를 변화하면서 그에 따른 분광특성 또한 분석하였다. 입사되는 빛이 에칭된 표면으로 조사될 때 다중반사에 의해서 유리 기판 내부에 빛을 재흡수할 확률이 증가함을 확인하였다. 또 유리 기판의 각도를 변화하면서 빛을 입사할 때 빛의 투과 및 반사 성능은 변화하지 않음을 확인하였다.

모바일 디스플레이 및 태양전지의 커버글라스에는 반사방지 코팅 및 셀프클리닝과 같은 기능성 코팅이 필요하다. 최근 들어 나방 눈 또는 연꽃 잎과 같은 자연의 기능성 표면을 모사하여 공학적으로 응용하고자하는 많은 연구가 수행되었다. 특히 실리카 나노입자를 이용한 반사방지 기능성 코팅은 빛의 투과를 증가시키며, $TiO_2$ 광촉매 코팅은 셀프클리닝 기능성 필름에 적용되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 $SiO_2/TiO_2$ 나노입자의 박막 코팅에 의한 투명 발수 반사방지 코팅을 sol-gel 공정과 dip-coating 공정으로 글라스 기판 위에 제조하였다. 기능성 코팅의 표면형상 의존성을 원자힘현미경, 접촉각 측정 및 UV-visible 분광광도계 분석으로 조사하였다. 그 결과 $TiO_2$ 나노입자의 코팅은 가시광선 영역에서 투과율을 저하시키지 않고 기판인 슬라이드 글라스와 비슷한 수준의 높은 평균 광 투과율을 나타내었다. 또한 7nm $SiO_2$/7nm $TiO_2$ 나노입자의 이중층 기능성 코팅은 접촉각 $110^{\circ}$의 투명 발수 표면 특성을 나타내었으며, 가시광선 영역에서 기판인 슬라이드 글라스 보다 2.3% 높은 평균 투과율의 향상을 나타내었다.

We have examined the issues on the measurement of bifacial photovoltaic(PV) devices that should be considered in order to ensure a measurement accuracy beyond a certain level and the comparability between the bifacial PV devices. Based on the results of various experiments and previous studies, solutions for these measurement issues are suggested. The most significant technical issues in the performance measurement of the bifacial PV devices are 1) elimination of the effect due to the light reflection on the sample holder surface and 2) the measurement of the expected power generation gain in outdoor operation. The effect due to the light reflection on the sample holder surface can be eliminated by using an anti-reflective sample holder. In case of a reflective sample holder, if the bifacial device have a linear characteristic with respect to the irradiance of incident light, it has been confirmed (through some previous studies and additional experiment) that exact measurement results can be obtained by the correction of the measurement data. In addition, it was also confirmed that the expected power generation gain in the outdoor operation can be obtained by three different methods along with the basic concepts of the bifaciality coefficient, the albedo, and the effective front irradiance.

Surface plasmon resonance is the enhancement of electromagnetic wave caused by oscillation on the metal and dielectric interfaces. Surface plasmons with nanohole arrays provides an enhancedresonance for the specific wavelengths of interests. Asymmetric array of nanoscale structures can enable orientation dependent shift of resonance wavelengths when combined with the control of polarization for incident visible light, thus providing color tunability. Appropriate lattice constants along the direction of polarization in rectangular nanohole arrays can determine the resonance condition generating red (R), green (G), and blue (B) colors and potentially be applied to display applications. In ourprevious report, we have optimized the ion beam nanomachining conditions to fabricate the nanostructures on the metal film. We apply the fabrication conditions to make nanoscale hole arrays using 100 nm thick gold layer on the glass substrate with the optimal design of periodicities along x, y, and diagonal directions of a=440 nm, b=520 nm, c=682 nm, and the hole diameter of d=200 nm. Using the reflective light in dark field mode of optical microscope, we can observe different colors. When the polarizer is paralleled along a, b, or c direction, the represented color is changed to R, G, and B, respectively. We further map the color using i1 to correlate the conditions of the nanohole arrays with their characteristic color.

CLC는 주기적인 나선구조 때문에 빛을 선택적으로 반사하는 특성을 보이는데, 반사 파장대역이 넓은 CLC를 광반응에 의한 상 분리 현상을 이용하여 제조하였다. CLC 액정 셀에 의하여 반사되는 빛의 파장은 노광하는 빛의 세기가 작을수록 그리고 UV 흡수 dye의 양이 증가할수록 범위가 증가하여 초기 50 nm의 반사 파장대역을 300 nm까지 넓힐 수 있었다. 광경화된 CLC 액정 셀 내에 상 분리에 의하여 형성된 다양한 CLC 피치 분포를 SEM으로 관찰하였고, ATR-IR 실험을 이용하여 CLC피치 분포가 넓어지는 것이 상 분리에 의한 것임을 확인하였다.

Luminescent solar concentrator (LSC), consisting of luminophore included glass or substrate with edge-mounted photovoltaic cell, is semi-transparent, energy harvesting devices. The luminophore absorbs incident solar light and re-emit photons, while the waveguide plate allows re-emitted photons to reach edge or bottom mounted photovoltaic cells with reduced losses. If the area of LSC is much larger than that of photovoltaic cell, this system can effectively concentrate solar light. In order to improve the performance of LSC, new materials and optical structures have been suggested by many research groups. For decreasing re-abosprion losses, it is essential to minimize the overlap between absorption and photoluminescence solar spectrum of luminophoroe. Moreover, the combination of selective top reflector and reflective optical cavity structure significantly boosts the waveguide efficiency in the LSC. As a result of many efforts, commercially available LSCs have been demonstrated and verified in the outdoor. Also, it is expected to generate electricity in buildings by replacing conventional glass to LSCs.

The thallium-doped sodium iodide [NaI(Tl)] scintillation detector is preferred as a gamma spectrometer in many fields because of its general advantages. A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) has recently been developed and its application area has been expanded as an alternative to photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). It has merits such as a low operating voltage, compact size, cheap production cost, and magnetic resonance compatibility. In this study, an array of SiPMs is used to develop an NaI(Tl) gamma spectrometer. To maintain detection efficiency, a commercial NaI(Tl) $2^{\prime}{\times}2^{\prime}$ scintillator is used, and a light guide is used for the transport and collection of generated photons from the scintillator to the SiPMs without loss. The test light guides were fabricated with polymethyl methacrylate and reflective materials. The gamma spectrometer systems were set up and included light guides. Through a series of measurements, the characteristics of the light guides and the proposed gamma spectrometer were evaluated. Simulation of the light collection was accomplished using the DETECT 97 code (A. Levin, E. Hoskinson, and C. Moison, University of Michigan, USA) to analyze the measurement results. The system, which included SiPMs and the light guide, achieved 14.11% full width at half maximum energy resolution at 662 keV.

We developed a standoff Raman detection system for explosive molecules (EMs). Our system was composed of reflective telescope with 310 mm diameter lens, 532 nm pulse laser, and Intensified Charge-Coupled Device (ICCD) camera. In order to remove huge background noise coming from ambient light, laser pulses with nanosecond time width were fired to target sample and ICCD was gated to open only during the time when the scattered Raman signal from the sample arrived at ICCD camera. We performed standoff experiments with military EMs by putting the detector at 10, 20 and 30 m away from the source. The standoff results were compared with the confocal Raman results. Based on our standoff experiments, we were able to observe the peaks in the range of 1200 and $1600cm^{-1}$, where vibrational modes of nitro groups were appeared. The wave numbers and shapes of these peaks may serve as good references in detecting and identifying various EMs.
