  • This paper describes new gestures on the Multi-touch table. The 2 new gestures with 3 fingers are used for minimizing of all windows that is already open and converting Aero mode. We also implement a FTIR (Frustrated Total Internal Reflection) Multi-touch table that consists of sheet of acrylic, infrared LEDs, camera and rear projector. The operation of proposed gestures is verified on the implemented Multi-touch table.

  • Tunneling of an electron non-normally incident on a potential barrier is theoretically studied. Tunneling time and the position where an electron appears after the tunneling are derived using the phase time approach. The positions where photons appear after two-dimensional tunneling in a frustrated total internal reflection structure are also discussed.

  • 현재 발표된 공간 광스위치 구조들은 전자 스위치 및 전자 통신 분야에서 많이 이용된 Clos, Benes, Banyan, omega, shuffle network 등을 directional coupler switch, TIR(total internal reflection) switch, cross X switch 등 여러가지 단위 광스위치를 이용하여 고안한 것으로 서로 다른 장단점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 4 X 4나 8 X 8, 또는 그 이상의 확장된 광스위치를 제작하기 위해서는 이러한 기존 구조에 대한 조사 및 분석이 선행되어야 한다. 본 논문은 현재 개발되어 발표된 광스위치의 구조들을 조사하여 특성을 비교하였다.

  • In this paper, we analyze the optical properties of the transmission grating recorded in a reflection-type photopolymer. Recording and reconstruction of the micropattern using a total internal reflection hologram applied to a reflection type photopolymer are studied. The transmission-type photopolymer was shown to have the maximum diffraction efficiency in $40^{\circ}C$ symmetric structure. However, that of reflection type photopolymer was more than 90% at $60{\sim}80^{\circ}$. The line and point patterns with the interval of $1{\mu}m$ are recorded successfully and can be observed when the micro objective lenses with 10 and 100 time magnification are used.

  • Recent years, OLEDs have been progressed intensively and been widely applied to Display and Lighting industry,Almost 100% internal quantum efficiency was achieved by developing new materials and structure optimization. However, external quantum efficiency was still low due to total internal reflection of light inside OLED devices and absorption of light at the surface of metal electrode. In order to improve external quantum efficiency of OLED devices, various kinds of optical functional structures were introduced to inside and outside of OLED devices to increase light extraction efficiency. In this paper, various efforts to apply optical functional structures in OLED devices were reviewed and way to improve light extraction efficency of OLED devices were discussed.

  • To increase the light-emission efficiency of LED, we increased the internal and external quantum efficiency by suppressing the defect formation in the quantum well and by increasing the light extraction efficiency in LED, respectively. First, the internal quantum efficiency was improved by investigating the effect of a low temperature (LT) grown p-GaN layer on the In$\sub$0.25/GaN/GaN MQW in green LED. The properties of p-GaN was optimized at a low growth temperature of 900oC. A green LED using the optimized LT p-type GaN clearly showed the elimination of blue-shift which is originated by the MQW damage due to the high temperature growth process. This result was attributed to the suppression of indium inter-diffusion in MQW layer as evidenced by XRD and HR-TEM analysis. Secondly, we improved the light-extraction efficiency of LED. In spite of high internal quantum efficiency of GaN-based LED, the external quantum efficiency is still low due to the total internal reflection of the light at the semiconductor-air interface. To improve the probability of escaping the photons outside from the LED structure, we fabricated nano-sized cavities on a p-GaN surface utilizing Pt self-assembled metal clusters as an etch mask. Electroluminescence measurement showed that the relative optical output power was increased up to 80% compared to that of LED without nano-sized cavities. I-V measurement also showed that the electrical performance was improved. The enhanced LED performance was attributed to the enhancement of light escaping probability and the decrease of resistance due to the increase in contact area.

  • Digital holography (DH) is a potentially disruptive new technology for many areas of imaging science, especially in microscopy and metrology. DH offers a number of significant advantages such as the ability to acquire holograms rapidly, availability of complete amplitude and phase information of the optical field, and versatility of the interferometric and image processing techniques. This article provides a review of the digital holography, with an emphasis on its applications in biomedical microscopy. The quantitative phase microscopy by DH is described including some of the special techniques such as optical phase unwrapping and holography of total internal reflection. Tomographic imaging by digital interference holography (DIH) and related methods is described, as well as its applications in ophthalmic imaging and in biometry. Holographic manipulation and monitoring of cells and cellular components is another exciting new area of research. We discuss some of the current issues, trends, and potentials.

  • We developed a new configuration of polarized light out-coupling lightguide plate (LGP) in the LCD backlight. By collimating the light into the LGP, one linear polarization component experienced total internal reflection at the planar interface of LGP and anisotropic layer, whereas the orthogonal polarization was out-coupled in the normal direction through a birefringent layer and subsequent isotropic microstructures.

  • In optical storage device system, there are several research topics to increase its recording density. The main idea is reducing wave length of laser diode and magnifying the number of numerical aperture (NA). In conventional optical system NA cannot be over the unity in the air because of its diffraction limit. But it is possible to overcome its limitation of unity in near field using Solid Immersion Lens. In this work, the mathematical Solid Immersion Lens (SIL) design process was illustrated by using near field theory. Also, numerical SIL design parameters were calculated by means of CODE V. Through the work, we propose the new type of SIL for high density optical recording systems.
