Objective: The low level lasers currently in the market vary in wavelength, dosage, and frequency. These devices are used with much different clinical pathology. Most notably, some studies claim that wounds heal faster with low level laser therapy due to the fact that bacteria commonly found in wounds are killed by laser light. Systemic and meta-analysis studies found the difficulty of comparison of numerous research studies because of differences in the intensities and frequencies of low level laser treatment (LLLT). The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of LLLT on controlling bacterial growth. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Variables included LLLT dosage and wavelength on 3 bacteria commonly seen in wounds, strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were used on commercially available 5.0-cm agar plates. Blue, green, and red, ultraviolet (UV) and infrared laser light sources were adjusted to either low or high intensity settings. Five Petri dishes at a time were placed directly beneath laser light sources with the exception of UV which was placed six inches below the suspended light and infrared which was placed directly on top of the Petri dish lid. Each group of five Petri dishes was irradiated for 15 minutes. Results: The results showed no effect of any of 9 different LLLT intensities or colors on bacteria growth compared to sham light. Conclusions: At least for claims of bacterial growth inhibition with LLLT, no support for this claim can be found here.

Power conversion efficiency of the red and green phosphors was measured and analyzed. Two different samples of phosphors of thickness 50 ${\mu}m$ were prepared: one was the phosphor layer coated on the transparent substrate and the other was prepared on the reflective substrate. The 445 nm blue laser diode beam was used as the exciting beam. The conversion efficiencies of the red and green phosphor layers were 41.4% and 46%, respectively. The quantum efficiencies of the red and green phosphors were 60.4% and 53.5%, respectively.

We report a novel structure for a full-color AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) eliminating the patterning process of a blue emitting layer. The patterning of the three primary colors, RGB, is a key technology in the OLED fabrication process. Conventional full color AMOLED containing RGB layers includes the three opportunities of the defects to make an accurate position and fine resolution using various technologies such as fine metal mask, ink-jet printing and laser-induced transfer system. We can skip the blue patterning step by simply stacking the blue layer as a common layer to the whole active area after pixelizing two primary colors, RG, in the conventional small molecular OLED structure. The red and green pixel showed equivalent performances without any contribution of the blue emission.

Recent studies have been received much attention on underwater laser communication, which is capable of high data rate. However, in underwater laser communication, distortions caused by absorption and scattering induced performance degradation. A typical way to improve performance is to apply channel coding technique. In the beginning of studies, simple methods such as RS and BCH coding techniques were applied. However, due to distance expansion and performance improvement, channel coding methods with low error probability such as LDPC coded method were applied. In this paper, we analyzed the performance according to the size of the code word N, the distance between the transceivers and the size of the M of the M-ary PPM modulation scheme. Simulation results show that parameter M of M-ary PPM is most effect on performance.

A simultaneous transfer and bonding (SITRAB) process using areal laser irradiation is introduced for high-yield and cost-effective production of mini- or micro-light-emitting diode (LED) display panels. SITRAB materials are special epoxy-based solvent-free pastes. Three types of pot life are studied to obtain a convenient SITRAB process: Room temperature pot life (RPL), stage pot life (SPL), and laser pot life (LPL). In this study, the RPL was found to be 1.2 times the starting viscosity at 25℃, and the SPL was defined as the time the solder can be wetted by the SITRAB paste at given stage temperatures of 80℃, 90℃, and 100℃. The LPL, on the other hand, was referred to as the number of areal laser irradiations for the tiling process for red, green, and blue LEDs at the given stage temperatures. The process windows of SPL and LPL were identified based on their critical time and conversion requirements for good solder wetting. The measured RPL and SPL at the stage temperature of 80℃ were 6 days and 8 h, respectively, and the LPL was more than six at these stage temperatures.

A transmission type color filter based on a thin film Ag-$SiO_2$-Ag etalon was proposed and realized in a quartz substrate. The device could acquire infrared suppressed transmission and wide effective area compared to costly e-beam lithography and laser interference lithography. The FDTD method was introduced to take into account the effect of the dispersion characteristics of the silver metal and the thickness thereof. Three different color filters were devised: The cavity length for the red, green and blue filters were 160 nm, 130 nm, and 100 nm respectively, with the metal layer unchanged at 25 nm. The observed center wavelengths were measured at 650 nm, 555 nm, and 480 nm for the red, green, and blue devices; the corresponding bandwidths were about 120 nm, 100 nm, and 120 nm; and the peak transmission for all was ~60%. Finally the relative transmission was measured to decline with the angle of the incident beam with the rate of 1%/degree.

The fabrication of a focal length-correcting lens called the F-theta lens was performed by a 3D printer. The fabricated lenses were characterized by transmittance and reflectance measurements. The optical properties of the lens, such as scattering or transmittance efficiency, were analyzed with respect to the wavelength (red, green, and blue) and the surface roughness of the lens. There was almost no shape aberration on the focus location of 0 degrees, but elliptical focus shapes were found at 1 and 2 degrees of the laser incidence angle. The developed process is expected to be used for the quick fabrication of lenses with low costs and quick turn-out. By improving the surface roughness during postprocessing, the optical properties are expected to be comparable to commercial lens quality.

Joint transform correlator (JTC) is a well known tool for color pattern recognition for a color image. Color images have red, green and blue components, thus in conventional JTC, three input channels of these color components are necessary for color pattern recognition. This paper proposes a new technique of color pattern recognition by decomposing the color image into three color components and recombining those components into a single gray image in the input plane. This new technique needs single input channel and single output CCD camera, thus a simple JTC can be used. We present various kinds of simulated results to show that our newly proposed technique can accurately recognize and discriminate color differences.

In this paper, the novel and simple scheme of producing full color image bye use of binary phase holograms and three lasers of red (632.8 nm), green (543.5 nm), and blue (488 nm) is presented. Three holograms are designed and fabricated separately so that different laser beams can pass through the different holograms. The diffracted beams from the holograms constitute the wanted color image at the focal plane. The theory and experimental results of the system are also presented.
