Optical signals based on Raman scattering, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS), and harmonic generation can be used to image biological molecules in living cells without labeling. Both Raman scattering and CARS signals can be used to detect frequencies of molecular vibrations and to obtain the molecular distributions in samples. Second-harmonic optical signals can also be generated in structured arrays of noncentrosymmetric molecules and can be used to detect structured aggregates of proteins, such as, collagen, myosin and tubulin. Since labeling techniques using chemical and biological reactions may cause undesirable changes in the sample, label-free molecular imaging techniques are essential for observation of living samples.

There are many stone monuments which are weathered by natural or artificial factors in Korea. The partly weathering in stone could accelerate the rate of weathering, so it is demanded to keep them from the further weathering. Consolidation is evaluated as one of the efficient treatments which have a good effectiveness in stone monuments. But following the former researches, the effectiveness of consolidation could be different, related to the kinds of stone or consolidants. Therefore, in this study, the change of properties was monitored in the long term for the exact evaluation of the stability of the consolidated stone. It is estimated that the pore structure of consolidated stone was filled by consolidant, according to the measurements of ultrasonic velocity, and the digital image analysis of the sample was shown that the color property of stone surface has varied during the curing.

Shotcrete has been referred to as gunite, pneumatically applied mortar or concrete, sprayed concrete or mortar. There are sound reasons why sprayed mortar is one of the best portland cement based material for repairing old concrete structures. However, it is difficult to find the research results on the latex-modified mortar nevertheless on the impact of air onto the fresh and hardened properties of latex-modified mortar. So, the main experimental program included strength test, slump test, rapid chloride permeability test, image analysis for air void system, and chemical attacks with the main experimental variables of latex content, fine aggregate content, water-cement ratio, and air foamer content.

In near field optics, optical fiber probe is smaller than the wavelength of light. This small probe makes it possible to overcome the diffraction limit due to wave property of light. In conventional optical systems, the image resolution is governed by wavelength. But in NSOM, it is determined by probe tip size and probe shape. Therefore probe tip size and shape are very important points in near field optics. In this paper, we will suggest the new fabrication methods of optical fiber probe and show that the probe tip size is sub-micrometer using SEM.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the adaptability of light-cured glass ionomer cement to cavity walls. Class V cavities were prepared on the labial surfaces of extracted bovine incisor teeth. The cavities were restored with Fuji II as self-cured glass ionomer cement and Fuji II LC, Vitremer as light-cured glass ionomer cement. Fluorescent markers (fluoreceine and rhodamin B) were incorperated into liquid and primer for a better image of microscopic observation. Restored teeth were sectioned by longitudinal and labiolingual direction. The adaptability at the tooth-restoration interface was assessed incisally, axially and cervically by confocal scanning laser microscope. Following results were obtained : 1. Chemical-cured glass iomomer cement restoration showed close adaptation on the all of the cavity walls, but, cracks formed within the cement. 2. Light-cured glass ionomer cement restoration was well adapted to the cavity walls, but showed crack in the cement adjacent to axial dentinal wall. 3. There' was no significant difference in adaptability between two light-cured glass ionomer cement restorations.

A new constant growth technique to conserve an initial grating height of V-groove AlGaAs/InGaAs quantum nanostructures above 1.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness has been successfully embodied on submicron gratings using low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. A GaAs buffer prior to an AlGaAs barrier layer on submicron gratings plays an important role in overcoming mass transport effects and improving the uniformity of gratings. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image shows that high-density V-groove InGaAs quantum wires (QWRs) are well confined at the bottom of gratings. The photoluminescence (PL) peak of the InGaAs QWRs is observed in the temperature range from 10 to 280 K with a relatively narrow full width at half maximum less than 40 meV at room temperature PL. The constant growth technique is an important step to realize complex optoelectronic devices such as one-step grown distributed feedback lasers and two-dimensional photonic crystal.

Simultaneous measurements of velocity and OH distribution were made using particle image velocimetry(PIV) and planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) of OH radical in turbulent hydrogen nonpremixed flames with coaxial air. The OH radical was used as an approximate indicator of chemical reaction zone. The OH layer was correlated well with the stoichiometric velocity, $U_s$, instantaneously and on average. In addition, high strain-rate regions almost coincide with the OH distribution. The residence time in flame surface, calculated from the root-mean-square value of the radial velocity, is proportional to $(x/d_F)^{0.7}$. It is found that the mean value of principal strain rate on the OH layer can be scaled with $(x/d_F)^{-0.7}$ and therefore, the product of the residence time and the mean strain rate remains constant over all axial positions.

Bismaleimides(BISMI) containing ester linkages were prepared by the chlorinated N-(p-carboxyphenyl)maleimide and N-(p-hydroxyphenyl)maleimide. The photosensitive properties of BISMI were investigated via changes of the irradiation time. Benzil dimethyl ketal was used as a photoinitiator. The effect of photoinitiator onto BISMI increase in average as increasing photoinitiator concentration and irradiation time. The yield of residual film and image pattern and resolution also measured and discussed.

We have carried out a basic experiment in order to develope a super high-resolution optical microscope which transcend the limitation of diffraction and the wavelength of lightwave. The image of this scope is composed by measuring the evanescent wave which is localized on the surface of the testing materials. A detecting probe was fabricated with a single mode optical fiber to be sharpened by the chemical etching, and drived by PZT. The standing wave of $0.33\mu\textrm{m}$ wavelength evanescent wave which was generated from the $0.78\mu\textrm{m}$-wavelength semiconductor laser was detected by the $0.5\mu\textrm{m}$-thickness optical fiber probe.

Time-resolved photoluminescence from InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well structures was investigated for two different shapes of square- and trapezoidal wells grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. To compare to the conventional square well structure with a radiative recombination lifetime of 0.170 nsec, the large value of lifetime of 0.540 nsec from trapezoidal well were found at room temperature. This value is similar to the value for GaN host material indicating no confinement effect of quantum well. Furthermore, the high resolution transmission electron microscopy image provides the In clustering effect in the trapezoidal well structure.
