In this paper, Stokes parameters which represent the states of polarization of transmitted light are determined by potential function, which is used to obtain signals points in a multidimensional Euclidean structure. And performance of multilevel polarization shift keying(POLSK) system using the obtained parameters is also represented and analyzed. As results, bit error rate of multilevel POLSK system using the potential function is shown to be lower than the conventional one using the distance matrix. And as number of levels increases, the number of photons per bit for bit error rate of 10$^{-9}$ is also increased linearly. The multilevel POLSK system, therefore, is an energy efficient modulation technque as compared with the convnetional ones.

We have investigated the photophysical properties of dansyl-N-methylaminobenzoic acid (DABAH) as a ligand and its lanthanide (Ln3+)-cored complexes (Ln3+-(DABA)3(terpy)) in order to determine the main energy transfer pathway for sensitized near infrared emission of Ln3+ ions (Ln3+ = Nd3+ and Er3+) in Ln3+- (DABA)3(terpy). The fluorescence spectrum of DABAH shows a large Stokes shift with increasing solvent polarity. This large Stokes shift might be due to the formation of a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) state, as demonstrated by the large dipole moment in the excited state. It is in good agreement with the result that the phosphorescence even in the Gd3+-cored complex based on the DABAH ligand was not observed, maybe due to the highly forbidden character of the S1 → T1 transition in the DABAH ligand. A short decay component (ca. 1 ns) was observed in Er3+-(DABA)3(terpy) whereas the fluorescence lifetimes of DABAH and its Gd3+-(DABA)3(terpy) are observed about ~10 ns. The short component could be originated from the energy transfer process between the ligand and the Ln3+ ion. Based on the fluorescence of DABAH its Ln3+- (DABA)3(terpy), the sensitization of Ln3+ luminescence in the Ln3+-(DABA)3(terpy) takes place by the energy transfer via the TICT state of DABAH in the excited singlet state rather than via the excited triplet state.

Rhus verniciflua Stokes(RVS), one of traditional medicinal plants in Asia, was found to have pharmacological activities such as antioxidative and antiapoptotic effects, raising the possibility for the development of a novel class of anti-cancer drugs. Thus, potential genotoxic effects of RVS in three short-term mutagenicity assays were investigated, which included the Ames assay, in vitro Chromosomal aberration test, and the in vivo Micronucleus assay. In Ames test, the addition of RVS water extracts at doses from 313 up to 5000 mg/plate induced an increase more than 2-fold over vehicle control in the number of revertant colonies in TA98 and TA1537 strains for detecting the frame-shift mutagens. The similar increase in reversion frequency was observed after the addition of RVS ethanol extracts. To assess clastogenic effect, in vitro chromosomal aberration test and in vivo micronucleus assay were performed using Chinese hamster lung cells and male ICR mice, respectively. Both water and ethanol extracts from RVS induced significant increases in the number of metaphases with structural aberrations mostly at concentrations showing the cell survival less than 60% as assessed by in vitro CA test. Also, there was a weak but statistically significant increase in number of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes(MNPCEs) in mice treated with water extract at 2000 mg/kg while ethanol extracts of RVS at doses of up to 2000 mg/kg did not induce any statistically significant changes in the incidence of MNPCEs. Therefore, our results lead to conclusion that RVS acts as a genotoxic material based on the available in vitro and in vivo results.

[Ru(2,2'-bipyridine)$_2$(4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine)]$^{2+}$(RuBDc) is a very photostable probe that possesses favorable photophysical properties including long lifetime, high quantum yield, large Stokes' shift, and highly polarized emission. To evaluate the usefulness of this luminophore (RuBDc) for studying macromolecular dynamics, its intensity and anisotropy decays when conjugated to RNA bacteriophage MS2 were examined using frequency-domain fluorometry with a high-intensity, blue light-emitting diode (LED) as the modulated light source. The intensity decays were best fit by a sum of two exponentials, and the mean intensity decay time was 442.2 ns. The anisotropy decay data showed a single rotational correlation time (2334.9 ns), which is typical for a spherical molecule. The use of RuBDc enabled us to measure the rotational correlation time up to several microseconds. These results indicate that RuBDc can be useful for studying rotational diffusion of biological macromolecules.s.

Nitride phosphors are now attracting significant attention of material scientists and phosphor engineers, because they promise red-shifted photoluminescence spectra, small Stokes shift, high quantum efficiency and low thermal degradation. A number of interesting nitride phosphors have been developed and practiced for producing white light with LED chips. In this paper, the applications of nitride phosphors in highly reliable wLEDs will be overviewed.

We report in this paper the analysis of the motion of a needle and a spring in a viscous fluid under the influence of gravitational force. Lateral shift as well as vertical motion of a needle falling in a viscous fluid has been observed from a simple experiment. We also observed the combined rotation and translation of a falling spring. The trajectory and velocity of the falling needle and the spring were obtained by using an image processing technique. We also conducted numerical simulation for both problems. For the falling-needle problem, we employed a theory; but it turns out that significant correction is required for the solutions to match the numerical and experimental data. For the falling spring problem various theoretical formula were tested for their justification, but none of the existing theories can successfully predict the numerical and experimental results.

We have developed a practical Brillouin active fiber ring sensor of length less than 20m, by employing an optical amplifier to compensate for most of the connection losses in the ring. The loss reduction brings the standard Brillouin threshold from 21 down to 0-0.1 through the enhancement of the finesse of the ring. However, in the course of our experiments, some level of temporal instability and chaotic behavior in the backscattered Stokes intensity and also in its spectral line shift were consistently observed.

Synthesis and properties of novel excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) materials, recently developed in our group, are described. Highly efficient ESIPT reaction, achieved in polyquinolines, polybenzoxazoles, and oxadiazole and imidazole derivatives possessing an intramolecular tautomerizable hydrogen bond, has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. It is demonstrated that unique properties arising from the ESIPT process (large Stokes' shift, no self-absorption, and easy population inversion, etc.) make it possible to produce advanced polymer devices for lasing, optical storage, and electroluminescence.

Yb$^{3+}$ 이온은 InGaAs LD 및 Ti:sapphire 레이저로 펌핑할 수 있는 940 nm에서의 흡수대를 가지고 있고, 1.03 $mu extrm{m}$의 형광방출 특성을 가지고 있으며, 지금까지 알려진 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 파장대의 레이저 활성이온 중에서 가장 적게 열을 발생하는 특성을 가지고 있음이 알려져 최근에는 Yb$^{3+}$ 이온을 첨가한 여러 가지 레이저 매질이 연구되고 있다.[1] 그 중에서도 Yb$^{3+}$ ion doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Yb:YAG) 단결정은 충분하게 넓은 흡수선폭, 좋은 열광학적 특성, 고출력 작동을 하게 하는 stokes shift, 그리고 LD에 의한 펌핑을 가능하게 하는 940 nm 영역에서의 흡수 및 긴 여기시간을 가진 이상적인 매질로 알려져 있다.[2] 이러한 특성으로 인해 Yb:YAG 단결정은 femtosecond 레이저 등 각종 레이저 시스템의 소형화[3]를 가져왔으며, 레이저 결정의 양산 가능성 및 레이저 기기의 소형화에 따르는 시스템의 가격 감소가 가능하므로 Yb:YAG microchip 레이저는 향후 고출력 레이저 기기 산업의 중추가 될 것으로 기대된다.

Folded Box coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (FBCARS) spectra of the fundamental symmetric stretch(213 $cm^{-1}$) and the first overtone(421 $cm^{-1}$) of $I_2$ have been recorded over the pump wavelength range from 495 nm to 580 nm. The lineshapes were fitted using the least squares method and the A and C term of CARS were calculated. From the fitting of A and C terms, the real(R) and imaginary(I) term intensity of CARS were calculated using harmonic oscillator program. The calculated CARS excitation profile of $I_2$ with R and I term data was about 270 $cm^{-1}$ red shifted from the absorption spectrum.
