The shape and the material of a reflective sheet affect the amount and the range of retroreflection on incident angle of light, significantly. In this study, the method to determine the shape and the material of the reflective sheet is introduced for the maximum retroreflection. Since the microprism shape with an equilateral triangle base has been used widely, the shape optimization of the microprism shape is carried out. The path of the light within the prism is geometrically calculated to find the relationship between incoming and outgoing light to and from a microprism. The optimal shape of a microprism found by the simulation has almost same figure with the one being used in industry for the maximum retroreflection. It is also found that the refraction index of the reflective sheet is another parameter to control for maximum retroreflection and the range of retroreflection.

The structure of the prism sheet and the reflective polarizer sheet in the direct - illumination liquid crystal display (LCD) backlight is optimized and fabricated. The apex angle of the prism sheet was changed from 90 degree to 96.5 and 101.5 degree and the angular spread of the diffuser films attached on the reflective polarizer sheet was changed from 7 to 1.5 degrees. The measured view angle, the normal luminance, and the contrast ratio from the optimized backlight unit showed improved optical performances.

The demand for a rear reflective material is continuing according to the expansion of the bifacial soar module and the effect on the re-reflection of the ground using a back sheet that is not used due to the increase in the supply of the bifacial solar module was confirmed. For analysis, a bifacial solar module with an output of 445W was connected to a single inverter of 49.84kW, and analysis of each two inverters was carried out. In the analysis of the results, it was confirmed that the generation amount increased by 5.25% compared to the case where the back sheet reflective film was not installed and it was confirmed that the increase in the generation amount was the noon time when strong solar radiation was irradiated, not the time of sunrise and sunset.

Retroreflective article is different from other reflecting objects as it returns the incidence ray to the near of its source. This characteristic makes the retroreflectors have many applications in reflective highway signs, reflective vests, and other safety-relaxed items. These articles may have various shapes. However, the quantitative evaluation of performance for the best shape of retroreflector needs much time and cost for manufacturing prototypes and for performance experiments. In this work, we have developed a program for simulating the trace of ray entered into a retroreflective element, in order to determine the optimal shape of retro-reflection. We have also proposed new performance criterion of retroreflective articles, which can confide the range of incidence angle, instead of the criterion with the merely retroreflective strength.

Ion reflective index and sheet resistance in the silicon oblique range smaller than 8 degree and optimization of annealing temperature have been studied. A four point probe was used to obtain the sheet resistance after annealing, while high resolution SIMS was used to determine the Boron and Fluorine atomic profiles before and after annealing. Experimental results and theory of ion reflective index are compared. Ion reflective index was found to decrease according to increasing an ion oblique angle. We introduce a simple analytical model ion reflection, concidering the Rutherford scattering model. This result can not be explained by the conventional Gaussian model.

In this research, we would try to evaluate the applicability in cadastral resurvey surveying by analysing the accuracy of building boundary surveying using the reflective sheet total station surveying. When we analyse it, we refer the reflective sheet which can supplement not only the difficulties of total station surveying and GPS surveying caused by the diversity of the building structure but also the errors of non prism total station caused by material of the object. Each reflected angles $90^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ of RMSE results were analyzed by RMSE between 1.2mm~2.8mm and 2.2mm~4.0mm, 2.5mm~4.4mm for each distance. The result of X RMSE was analyzed to be 0.0043m in a boundary surveying for existing building between prism surveying and reflective sheet surveying, and also Y RMSE was 0.038m. The source of error is estimated that the body of the prism can not be exactly attached to the edge of a building. Therefore, it will be very helpful to use a reflective sheet surveying with a prism in both the limit of collimation and error reductions as a building boundary measurement in cadastral resurvey surveying.

Although fibrous insulations are generally used with resistive insulation type, metallic insulation is proper matter to satisfy low head-loss and equipment life when considering the specific condition, especially for Nuclear power plant. Common insulation is resistance insulation with a low thermal conductivity. but RMI is made of sheet plate with low emissivity and closed air space. Thermal radiation is blocked by stainless steel with low emissivity. Thermal conductivity and thermal convection are blocked by closed air space. This study shows the changes and effects of the heat loss according to shape and method of stacking sheet plates inserted into the insulation and analyzed the most optimized way for thermal insulation performance. The result shows that using sheet plate structure through raised and protruding shape processing was the appropriate model to optimize thermal performance. Additionally, insulating performance of RMI improved by placing the sheet plate in a high temperature region intensively.

The optical performance of the reflective polarizer was investigated over three kinds of direct-lit backlights and/or different configurations of the optical sheets. The optical gain factor achieved by using the reflective polarizer increased as the diffuse nature of the optical sheet was enhanced, because of the more efficient polarization conversion. In addition, the gain factor decreased substantially in flat-lamp backlights compared to tubular-lamp backlights, which was ascribed to the high loss factor during the polarization recycling process due to the complex structure and large area of flat lamps. All these results suggested that reducing the loss factor of the backlight is very important for efficient polarization conversion and thus high optical gain of the reflective polarizer.

In this paper, we developed an optical sheet for LED lighting with integrated $CO_2$ gas and temperature sensor which can monitor at the indoor environment. The optical sheet for LED lighting is fabricated through PMMA(Polymethyl methacrylate) injection process using mold. This research enables to fabricate the reflective sheet, light-guide plate and the prism sheet in a optical sheet. The fabricated sheet demonstrates higher intensity of optical efficiency compared with single-sided sheets. The $CO_2$ sensor was fabricated using NDIR(NON-Dispersive Infrared) method and it has $0.0235mV/V{\cdot}PPM$ sensitivity. The temperature sensor was fabricated using RTD(Resistance temperature detector) method and it has $0.563{\Omega}/^{\circ}C $sensitivity.
