This study was carried out for the purpose of obtaining the basic data for color identification of amethyst by spectrophotometer. For this, the eleven amethyst stone and one citrine stone from eight countries were prepared in facet cut or plate. The transmittance and reflection of this samples were investigated as a function of wavelength. The transmittance or reflection was transformed to tristimulus value (X, Y, Z) and chromaticity value (x, y, z) and then compared with the results of eye observation which was plotted on cm xyY color space. Finally, the influence of the amethyst's thickness on transmittance or reflection was investigated.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to minimize the difference between color of fibers of combat uniforms occurring depending on the type of dye or process of each manufacturer. Methods: Color difference between combat uniforms made from different manufacturers in mass production by lot was analyzed using spectrophotometer and calculated by color difference formula. Results: By the results of analyzing the color difference between combat uniforms made from different manufacturers with moving average and time series analysis, the feedback to each manufacturer was given. Conclusion: By this study, the color deviation of combat uniforms from different manufacturers was improved to be reduced.

Fluorescent whitening agent (FWA) is a widely used chemical in paper industry, but a systematic and scientific method on FWA analysis has not been established. We performed the basic researches on the fluorescence analysis of FWA. The fluorescence of FWA was investigated using a spectrofluorometer and a spectrophotometer. When FWA solution was analyzed using the spectrofluorometer, we found that the peak wavelength of the fluorescence emission was about 440 nm and that of the fluorescence excitation was about 370 nm irrespective of FWA types. Papers dyed with an internal FWA were prepared in a laboratory and the reflectance and the fluorescence index were measured using the spectrophotometer. It was confirmed that the optimum peak wavelength of the reflectance was 440 nm and the fluorescence index calculated from the CIE whiteness with and without UV light under a light source D65 was the best indicator to measure the fluorescence of FWAs exiting in papers.

To confirm the performance and benefit of the developed online E-commerce Real Industrial Color(RIC) device, cotton and polyester were dyed with selected 39 colors. The captured images of dyed cotton and polyester by using RIC device were compared with original samples and confirmed ${\Delta}E$ using a spectrophotometer and RIC device. Overall, visual comparison of the captured images was similar to the real dyed samples. In high concentration of dyeings, the color consistency between real samples and captured images was better than in lower color concentration of dyeings. Similarly, the result was almost the same when the developed RIC device was used since ${\Delta}E$ values of RIC device were smaller compared with spectrophotometer. In this regards, the RIC device developed up to date can be assumed that it is more influenced by the color rather than fabric materials.

Petroleum visible markers (dye) have been used to distinguish different fuel classes and to prevent illegal mixing. It is difficult to recognize the real color of visible marker when the small amount of petroleum product was mixed in another fuel oil. In this study, we determined the two wavelengths (370 nm, 645 nm) which detect all Korean petroleum visible marker using UV/Vis spectrophotometer. Then we analyzed the visible marker using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in two wavelength detectors. Also, we optimized the analytic method for petroleum visible marker in illegal mixed fuel oil.

The micro-Kjeldahl method, a common technique for analyzing crude proteins, is time-consuming and dangerous due to the employment of reagents such as sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide. However, a Fourier transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectrophotometer analysis can be completed in under a minute after simple pre-processing if data has been gathered using sufficient reference material in advance. Furthermore, the use of safe reagents in this technique ensures the safety of the experimenter and the environment. In addition, a portable FT-NIR spectrophotometer enables real-time measurement at processing or distribution sites and has recently gained popularity. The standard errors of calibration and regression (r²) for the calibration result for estimating the crude protein content of dried laver were 0.9775 and 1.2526, respectively. The standard error of prediction was 1.1814, and the r² was 0.9303 in the validation results, which was a good level. In the present study, a method for predicting the crude protein content of dried laver using an FT-NIR spectrophotometer in the range of 29%-40% crude protein content has been reported.

The sintered density of uranium oxide pellets for pressurized water reactors is generally analyzed with pellet's samples completed with the sintering process. In this paper, the sintered density was analyzed by the newly developed method measuring the chromatography of ammonium diuranate, a precursor of uranium oxide, by a spectrophotometer (CM-5, Konica Minolta) before completing the sintering process. As a result of the sintered density analysis based on the brightness, color coordinate values (L, a, b) obtained from five ammonium diuranate samples by a spectrophotometer and the trend line of sintered density analyzed by a previous method, the sintered density with respect to the L value was observed with 0.9967 of the decision factor $R^2$. In case of a value, $R^2$ value was 0.9534 indicating lower reliability than that of the L value. However, b value with $R^2$ value of 0.4349 showed a very low correlation.

One of the problems of derivatie spectrophotometry, the decrease of signal-to-noise ratio by derivative operations, was solved by three concepts of digital filtering, ensemble averaging, least squares polynomial smoothing and Fourier smoothing. The suthors made several compouter programs written in APPLE SOFT BASIC language for the actual applications of the concepts of these digital filters on UV spectrophotometer system. As a result, ensemble averaging could not be used as a routine operation for the spectrophotometer used. The maximum S/N ratio enhancement factors achieved by least squares polynomial smoothing were 6.17 and 7.47 for the spectra of Gaussian and Lorentzian distribution models, and by Fourier smoothing 16.42 and 11.78 for the spectra of two models, respectively.

In this study, CdSe-$TiO_2$ photocatalyst were synthesized by a facile solvothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectrophotometer. The photocatalytic activity was investigated by degrading methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution under irradiation of UV light as well as visible light. The absorbance of degraded MB solution was determined by UV-vis spectrophotometer. The results revealed that the CdSe-$TiO_2$ photocatalyst exhibited much higher photocatalytic activity than $TiO_2$ both under irradiation of UV light as well as visible light.
