Flame spray pyrolysis was applied to improve the photoluminescence characteristics of blue-emitting $Sr_5(PO_4)_3Cl:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles with high brightness for the application to LED phosphor. $Sr_5(PO_4)_3Cl:Eu^{2+}$ prepared from conventional spray pyrolysis had poor PL intensity than that of commercial products under long-wavelength ultraviolet(UV). $Sr_5(PO_4)_3Cl:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by flame spray pyrolysis had PL intensity as same as that of commercial products under long-wavelength UV. Hollow morphology and porous structure of the particles prepared by the flame spray pyrolysis disappeared after posttreatment. Even though the $Sr_5(PO_4)_3Cl:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by the flame spray pyrolysis had irregular shape, the particles had dense structure and clear surface property.

The photocatalytic degradation of atrazine and PCP, a endocrine disruptors, has been investigated over $TiO_2$ photocatalysts under ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation. The effect of operational parameters, i.e., pH, light intensity and persulphate concentration on the degradation rate of aqueous solution of atrazine and PCP has been examined. The results presented in this work demonstrate that, as pH and the light intensity increased, the photocatalytic reaction rates were enhanced. Individual use of $TiO_2$-persulphate was far more effective than using only $TiO_2$ in atrazine and PCP removal. Based on the overall experimental results, the photocatalytic oxidation of atrazine and PCP with the coated $TiO_2$ photocatalyst is found to be very effective under the operational conditions delineated in this study.

The action spectrum for mycelial growth and fruitbody primordium formation in Pleurotus ostreatus has been studied by irradiation at various wavelengths. Effective wavelengths. Effective wavelengths were distributed from near ultraviolet to blue region of spectrum. The most effect of light was observed in the region between 340 to 500 nanometers. The light intensity required to obtain of the maximum effect at the most effective wavelengths(430-500nm), was over 6.8 mW/Cm$^{2}$. Up to 6.8 mW/Cm$^{2}$, the primordium formed about 25 hr after the start of illumination. The higher the light intensity, the earlier the formation of the primordium formation : Up to about 6.8 mW/Cm$^{2}$.

In this study, plasma display panels with three different cell volumes were prepared by changing the spaces between the vertical barrier ribs into two and three times the reference structure. The discharge gap and area of the segmented ITO electrode were the same for the three cases, and Ne.20%Xe gas was used. The luminance and luminance efficiency were measured using applied voltage variations. The time evolution and intensity distribution of the infrared, which are related to the vacuum ultraviolet, were observed via intensified, charged, coupled device, and the visible-light intensity profiles were observed using PR-900 to analyze the discharge phenomena in the discharge cell.

ZnGa2O4: Mn phosphors were prepared by a new chemical process, and their photoluminescence and electron paramagnetic resonance characteristics were investigated. The chemical method showed a low temperature formation of phosphors and a rod-type shape of particles. The strong ultraviolet emission was observed in the undoped ZnGa2O4 phosphor, while strong green emission in the Mn2+-activated ZnGa2O4 phosphor. The green emission intensity of the phosphor prepared by the chemical method was much stronger than that prepared by the conventional method. This difference with preparation methods was interpreted as due to the difference in the distribution of Mn2+ in the host lattice. From EPR results, it was explained that the line intensity of the undoped ZnGa2O4 is associated with the electrical conductivity of this material and the concentration quenching of green luminescence of ZnGa2O4: Mn at higher Mn2+ concentration is attributed to the coupling by exchange interaction between Mn2+ ions.

Effects of pH, organic acides and UV irradiation on the browning of ginseng were investigated. Browning of ginseng tended to increase slightly in the alkaline pH range, whereas no discernible pH effect was observed in the pH ranges of 3.0-5.0 and 10.0-12.5. The treatment of fresh ginseng with organic acid such as citric acid, succinic acid, and tartaric acid greatly enhanced the browning reaction of ginseng but all treatments of mixture of glucose, glutamic acid, and glucose+glutamic acid with fumaric acid decreased the browning reaction except the treatment of fumaric acid only. The addition of ascorbic acid in concentration of greater than 0.1 M markedly accelerated the browning reaction and concurrently increased the red color, a characteristic color of quality red ginseng. Irradiation of ultraviolet light while drying red ginseng increased the brown color intensity in the first 5 days and thereafter decreased the brown color intensity.

A new $Mg_{2-x}MN_xSnO_4$ phosphor with an inverse spinel structure was synthesized by the solid-state reaction technique. The photoluminescence properties of the $Mg_2SnO_4$:Mn phosphors were investigated under 147nm -vacuum ultraviolet ray excitation. The Mn-doped $Mg_2SnO_4$ phosphor exhibited high emission intensity with the spectrum centered at 500nm wavelength. It was explained that the green emission in $Mg_2SnO_4$:Mn phosphor has originated from energy transfer from $^4T_1$ to $^6A_1$ of $Mn^{2+}$ ion at tetrahedral site of the spinel structure. The $Mn^{2+}$ ion concentration exhibiting the maximum emission intensity under the excitation of 147nm-vacuum ultraviolet ray was 0.25mol%. And the decay time of the phosphor was shorter than 10ms.

In this study, the effects of annealing conditions on the structural and optical properties of ZnO films were investigated. ZnO oxide (ZnO) films were deposited onto $SiO_2$/Si substrates by RF magnetron sputtering from a ZnO target. The substrate was not heated during deposition. ZnO films were annealed in temperature ranges of $500{\sim}650^{\circ}C$ in the $O_2$ flow for 5 ~ 20 min. The film average thicknesses were in the range of 291 nm. The surface morphologies and structures of the samples were characterized by SEM and XRD, respectively. The optical properties were evaluated by PL measurement at room temperature using a He-Cd 325 nm laser. According to the results, the optimal annealing conditions for the best photoluminescence (PL) characteristics were found to be oxygen fraction, ($O_2/O_2+Ar$) of 20%, RF power of 240W, substrate temperature of RT (room temperature), annealing condition of $600^{\circ}C$ for 20 min, and sputtering pressure of 20 mTorr. The obtained wavelength of light emission was found at 379 nm (ultraviolet-UV region). However, the optimal parameters for the best PL characteristics of ZnO thin films were not consistent with those obtained from the (002) intensities of XRD analyses. As a result, XRD pattern was not considered as the key issue concerning the intensity of PL of ZnO thin film. The intensity of the emitted UV light will correspond to the grain size of ZnO film.

Green-emitting $Ba_{1.468}Sr_{0.5}SiO_4\;:\;Eu_{0.012},\;Y_{0.02}$ phosphor powders under long-wavelength ultraviolet light were prepared via high-temperature flame spray pyrolysis from spray solutions with and without $NH_4Cl$ flux. The effects of the temperature of the diffusion flame and the $NH_4Cl$ flux on the morphologies, crystal structures and photoluminescence intensities of the $Ba_{1.468}Sr_{0.5}SiO_4\;:\;Eu_{0.012},\;Y_{0.02}$ phosphor powders were investigated. The phosphor powders obtained from the spray solution with the $NH_4Cl$ flux had higher photoluminescence intensities compared to phosphor powders obtained from the spray solution without the flux. The photoluminescence intensity of the phosphor powders obtained from the spray solution without the flux decreased as the flow rate of the fuel gas increased. On the other hand, the photoluminescence intensity of the phosphor powders obtained from the spray solution with the flux increased as the flow rate of the fuel gas increased. The difference of in the phase purity and morphology of the powders affected the photoluminescence intensities of the phosphor powders.
