We fabricate acrylamide photopolymer as a holographic recording material and investigrate photobleaching characteristics. To explain the photobleaching kinetics of photopolymer we adopt two models of the Beer-Lambert law and optical transmittance based on rate equations obtained from a simplified energy-band model. The Beer-Lambert law is in good agreement with the experimental results in a first short-time region but not in long-time region. But the optical transmittance model based on rate equations explains the experimental results very well in both short-and long-time regions.

The electro-optical characteristics of photo-aligned vertical-alignment (VA)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation of 45\`on homeotropic polyimide (Pl) surface were investigated. LC alignment on photo-aligned VA-LCD is attributed to photo-depolymerized reaction of the polymer with non-polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. We had good voltage-transmittance (V-T) characteristics of photo-aligned VA-LCD. The response time of photo-aligned VA-LCD was slower than that of the rubbing-aligned VA-LCD. Finally, we suggest that the slow response time of photo-aligned VA-LCD depends on the LC domain.

We studied the viewing angle characteristics of a negative dielectric anisotropy nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the new vertical-alignment (VA)-1/6 cell on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface. Good voltage-transmittance (V-T)characteristics using the new VA-1/6 cell without a negative compensation film were obtained. The iso-viewing angle characteristics using the new VA-1/6 cell without the negative compensation film can be achieved.

We synthesized high thermal photoalignment material with hydroxyl aromatic polyimide, and studied the liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities on the photopolymer layers. Also, electro-optical (EO) performances for the twisted-nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) photoaligned with linearly polarized UV exposure were investigated. A good LC alignment with UV exposure on the photopolymer surface can be obtained. However, the low pretilt angles were obtained below $1^{\circ}$. The Voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve without backflow bounce in the photoaligned TN cell with UV exposure was observed. The response time of photoaligned TN cell was measured about 24 ms.

AZO/Ag/AZO multi-layer films deposited on glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering and thermal evaporator have a much better electrical properties than Al-doped ZnO thin films. The multi-layer structure consisted of three layers, AZO/Ag/AZO, the electrical and optical properties of AZO/Ag/AZO were changed mainly by thickness of Ag layers. The optimum thickness of Ag layers was determined to be $90{\AA}$ for high optical transmittance and good electrical conductivity. The Ag layers thickness $90{\AA}$ is an optical transmittance greater than 80% of visible light and the obtained multilayer thin film with the low resistivity of $8.05{\times}10-3{\Omega}cm$ and the low sheet resistance $5.331{\Omega}/sq$. Applying to TCO and Solar electrode will improve efficiency.

In this study, an online seed potato sorting system using a visible and near infrared (40 1100 nm) transmittance spectral technique and statistical model was evaluated for the nondestructive determination of infected and sound seed potatoes. Seed potatoes that had been artificially infected with Pectobacterium atrosepticum, which is known to cause a soil borne disease infection, were prepared for the experiments. After acquiring transmittance spectra from sound and infected seed potatoes, a determination algorithm for detecting infected seed potatoes was developed using the partial least square discriminant analysis method. The coefficient of determination($R^2_p$) of the prediction model was 0.943, and the classification accuracy was above 99% (n = 80) for discriminating diseased seed potatoes from sound ones. This online sorting system has good potential for developing a technique to detect agricultural products that are infected and contaminated by pathogens.

Chalcogenide glasses having IR (8~12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) transmittance were prepared and their densities, thermal and mechanical properties, IR-transmittances and chemical durabilities were determined. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of Ge-As-Se, Ge-As-Se-Te and Ge-SE-Te system glasses were in the range of 280~3$65^{\circ}C$, 210~236$^{\circ}C$ and 210~26$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. Crystallization temperature (Tc) of Ge-Se-Te system glass was in the range of 305~40$0^{\circ}C$. Their thermal expansion coefficients($\alpha$) were in the range of 11.7~15.2$\times$10-6/K, 15.4~16.0$\times$10-6/K and 17.4~27.8$\times$10-6/K, respectively. Their MOR, hardness and fracture toughness were in the range of 15.2~18.6MPa, 36.1~58.2Kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, 1.0~1.3 MPa.mm1/2, 18.9~24.9 MPa, 40.9~65.1Kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, 1.3~1.5 MPa.mm1/2, and 24.1~30.8 MPa, 40.9~86.0Kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, 1.4~1.8 MPa.mm1/2, respectively. IR transmittance of Ge-Se-Te system glass was about 60%. Ge-O extrinsic absorption peaks at 8, 12 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were significantly eliminated by the addition of Mg. Chemical durabilities in deionizied water of Ge-Se-Te system glass were good and IR-transmittances decreased with leaching time and temperature.

Indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films show a low electrical resistance and high transmittance in the visible range of an optical spectrum. The transparent electrodes have to get resistivity and sheet resistance less than $1{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}/cm$ and $10^3{\Omega}/sq$ respectively and transmittance over 80% at wavelength of 380nm~780nm. This study establishes DC magnetron sputtering process condition on ITO thin film by measuring electrical and optical properties of the thin film. As results, we obtained $300\;{\mu}{\Omega}cm$ resistivity of ITO films with good transmittance (above 90 %) under 90:10 wt% composition rate of $In_2O_3:SnO_2$. Also, we understood that the ITO thin film by DC magnetron sputtering depends on the deposition condition, especially substrate temperature, and the composition rate of $In_2O_3:SnO_2$ that is one of the most critical parameters was successfully optimized for high qualified transparent electrodes.

We investigated the improvement of viewing angle using a patterned double twisted (PDT) vertical-alignment (VA) cell mode on a homeotropic alignment layer. Good voltage-transmittance curves for negative dielectric anisotropic nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the PDT-VA cell without a negative compensation film were obtained. The viewing angle of the PDT-VA cell without a negative compensation film was wider than that of a conventional VA cell.

We have developed a new multidomain vertical-alignment (MVA) mode using a homeotropic photopolymer that provides a wider viewing angle for nematic liquidcrystal (NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy. Good voltage-transmittance curves for he new MVA cell using the homeotropic photopolymer were observed. The viewing angle of the new MVA cell using the homeotropic photopolymer was wider than that of the conventional VA cell. The wide viewing angle using the new MVA cell is attributable to 4-domain by the ribs with UV exposure on the photopolymer.
