The field sequential liquid crystal display (FSLCD) does not need a color filter so that it is suitable for high resolution display. However, FSLCD has a drawback which requires a fast response time of sub-5 ms. We have studied the FSLCD with electrically controlled birefringence (ECB) mode. The ECB mode exhibits fast response time, high transmittance, low operating voltage and adequate viewing angle with a help of optical compensation films. In this paper, we present electro-optic characteristics of the ECB mode using a discotic film.

반사방지막 코팅(Anti-reflection coating)은 태양전지(Solar cell), 발광다이오드(LED) 등의 반사율을 낮추어 효율을 증대시키기 위하여 사용되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 유리 기판 위에 실리콘 타겟을 이용한 Reactive magnetron sputtering 장비를 활용하여, 50~100 mTorr의 높은 공정 압력(High pressure)에서 증착하여 SiO2 반사방지막 코팅층을 형성하였다. Ellipsometer를 이용하여 SiO2 박막층의 굴절률(Refractive index)을 측정한 결과, 공정 압력에 따라 SiO2 박막이 다양한 굴절률을 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, UV-Vis spectrometer를 이용하여, 450~600 nm 파장에서의 반사율(Reflectance)과 투과율(Transmittance)을 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. 나아가 증착된 SiO2 반사방지막을 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지에 적용하여 효율 향상 효과를 실험하였다. 이를 활용하여 낮은 굴절률을 갖는 반사방지용 SiO2 코팅층을 형성하여 태양전지의 광 변환 효율을 상승 시킬 수 있고, 발광다이오드의 광 추출 효율을 증가시킬 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

In this study, ZnO film was deposited on polycarbonate substrate by spin-spray method at low substrate temperature of $85^{\circ}C$. Surface morphology of ZnO films was changed by adding citrate from rod to dense structure. As-deposited ZnO film indicated high transmittance above 80%. In case of the resistivity, as-deposited ZnO film had high resistivity due to the existence of organic substance in the film. However, organic substance was removed and resistivity was decreased to $3.9{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, after UV irradiation.

The crystal grains of polycrystalline diamond vary depending on deposition conditions and growth thickness. The diamond thin film deposited by the CVD method has a very rough growth surface. On average, the surface roughness of a diamond thin film deposited by CVD is in the range of 1-100 um. However, the high surface roughness of diamond is unsuitable for application in industrial applications, so the surface roughness must be lowered. As the surface roughness decreases, the scattering of incident light is reduced, the heat conduction is improved, the mechanical surface friction coefficient can be lowered, and the transmittance can also be improved. In addition, diamond-coated cutting tools have the advantage of enabling ultra-precise machining. In this study, the surface roughness of diamond was improved by thermal diffusion reaction between diamond carbon atoms and ferrous metals at high temperature for diamond thin films deposited by MPCVD.

We have fabricated transparent polymer composite films with high thermal emissivity, which can be used for heat dissipation of transparent electronics. PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) solution with high transparency and thermal emissivity is mixed with various fillers (carbon nanotubes (CNTs), aluminum nitride (AlN), or silicon carbide (SiC)) with high thermal conductivity. We have achieved the thermal emissivity as high as 0.94 by the addition of CNTs. Compared with the PMMA film on glass, however, the addition of AlN or SiC is shown to rather decrease the thermal emissivity. It is also observed that the thickness of the PMMA film does not affect its thermal emissivity. To avoid any degradation of the thermal conductivity, therefore, the PMMA film thickness is desirable to be $1{\mu}m$. There also exists a tradeoff between the optical transmittance and thermal conductivity on the selection of the amount of fillers.

Optical transparency and high diffraction efficiency are two essential factors for high performance of the photopolymer. Optical transparency mainly depends on the miscibility between polymer binder and photopolymerized polymer, while diffraction efficiency depends on the refractive index modulation between polymer binder and photopolymerized polymer. For most of organic materials, the large refractive index difference between two polymers accompanies large structural difference that leads to the poor miscibility and thus poor optical quality via light scattering. Therefore, it is difficult to design a high-performance photopolymer satisfying both requirements. In this work, first, we prepared a new phase-stable photopolymer (PMMA) with large refractive index modulation and investigated the optical properties. Our photopolymer is based on modified poly (methyl methacrylate) as a polymer binder, acryl amide as a photopolymerizable monomer, triethanolamine as initiator, and yellow eosin as a photosensitizer at 532 nm. Diffraction efficiency over 85% and optical transmittance over 90% were obtained for the photopolymer. Second, Organic-inorganic nanocomposite films were prepared by dispersing an aromatic methacrylic monomer and a photo- initiator in organic-inorganic hybrid sol-gel matrices. The film properties could be controlled by optimizing the content of an organically modified silica precursor (TSPEG) in the sol-gel matrices. The photopolymer film modified with the organic chain (TSPEG) showed high diffraction efficiency (> 90%) under an optimized condition. High diffraction efficiency could be ascribed to the fast diffusion and efficient polymerization of monomers under interference light to generate refractive index modulation. The TSPEG modified photopolymer film could be successfully used for holographic memory.

본 연구에서는 RF 파워, 기판의 종류, 산소분압비의 다양한 제작조건으로 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 $Ta_{2}O_{5}$ 박막을 제작하였다. 제작된 $Ta_{2}O_{5}$ 박막의 분석을 위해 위상변조방식의 분광타원계를 이용하여 타원상수를 $1.0{\sim}4.0eV$ 영역에 걸쳐 측정하였고, Tauc-Lorentz 분산관계식을 이용하여 박막의 두께와 광학상수를 분석한 결과 제작조건에 따른 광학상수의 크기와 분간형태의 변화가 나타났다. 또한 분산관계식에 의해 분석된 박막의 두께와 광학상수를 이용하여 얻은 투과율 스펙트럼을 UV-Vis 분광광도계에 의해 측정된 값과 비교하여 타원상수 분석을 통해 얻은 두께와 광학상수의 신뢰성을 확인하였다.

Graphene is very interesting 2 dimensional material providing unique properties. Especially, graphene has been investigated as a stretchable and transparent conductor due to its high mobility, high optical transmittance, and outstanding mechanical properties. On the contrary, high sheet resistance of extremely thin monolayer graphene limits its application. Artificially stacked multilayer graphene is used to decrease its sheet resistance and has shown improved results. However, stacked multilayer graphene requires repetitive and unnecessary transfer processes. Recently, growth of multilayer graphene has been investigated using a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method but the layer controlled synthesis of multilayer graphene has shown challenges. In this paper, we demonstrate controlled growth of multilayer graphene using a two-step process with multi heating zone low pressure CVD. The produced graphene samples are characterized by optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Raman spectroscopy is used to distinguish a number of layers in the multilayer graphene. Its optical and electrical properties are also analyzed by UV-Vis spectrophotometer and probe station, respectively. Atomic resolution images of graphene layers are observed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).

UV-Vis spectrometer를 이용하여, 380~800 nm 파장에서 투과율(Transmittance)을 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. Ellipsometer를 이용하여 $SiO_2$ 박막층의 굴절률(Refractive index)을 측정한 결과, 반사방지막 코팅층 내부 기공에 따라 다양한 굴절률을 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 코팅층 내부 기공의 형상을 확인하기 위해 SEM(Secondary electron microscopy)을 활용하여 코팅층 단면(Cross section)을 측정하였다. 이를 활용하여 낮은 굴절률을 갖는 반사방지용 $SiO_2$ 코팅층을 형성하여 태양전지의 광 변환 효율을 상승 시킬 수 있고, 발광다이오드의 광 추출 효율을 증가시킬 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

In this study a new design concept of the Fabry-Perot filter, constructed with an anisotropic space layer and a couple of isotropic mirrors, was proposed based on the Maxwell equations and the characteristic matrix method. The single- and double-cavity Fabry-Perot filters were designed, and their optical properties were investigated with a developed software package. In addition, the dependence of the transmittance and phase shift for two orthogonal polarization states on the column angle of the anisotropic space layer and the incidence angle were discussed. We demonstrated that the polarization state of electromagnetic waves and phase shifts can be modulated by exploiting an anisotropic space layer in a polarization F-P filter. Birefringence of the anisotropic space layer provided a sophisticated phase modulation with varied incidence angles over a broad range, resulting in a wide-angle phase shift. This new concept would be useful for designing optical components with isotropic and anisotropic materials.
