Inductively coupled plasma is commonly used for electrodeless lamp due to its ease of plasma generation. Optical characteristics significantly depend on the RF power and gas pressure of the plasma. This paper describes the measurement of luminance as a function of RF power and gas pressure with a goal of finding optimal operating conditions of the electrodeless lamp. The gas pressure was varied from 10 [mTorr] to 500 [mTorr] and the RF power was varied from 10 [W] to 200 [W]. It was found that the luminance tends to be decreased when argon pressure is increased, and the luminance is increased as RF power is increased. It was also found that the luminance per unit RF power is high when the argon pressure is low and when the RF power is in the range of 30 [W]${\sim}$40 [W].

A color restoration algorithm for dynamic images under multiple luminance conditions is proposed by using correction vectors, defined for sub regions that the original target is divided into and calculated from color information given in well-illuminated regions. These vectors restore chromatic information of the restored image obtained by the color restoration algorithm in a low luminance condition. Under the condition that the size of dynamic color images in multiple luminance conditions is $320\times240$, experimental results show that the restored image by the proposed algorithm decreases the color-difference about 30％ than that of the restoration algorithm with color change vectors in a low luminance condition. The proposed algorithm aims to construct the surveillance system with a low cost CCD camera in the real world.

This paper proposes an image-dependent color image enhancement method that uses adaptive luminance enhancement and color emphasis. It effectively enhances details of low-light regions while maintaining well-balanced luminance and color information. To compare the structure similarity and naturalness, we used the tone mapped image quality index (TMQI). The proposed method maintained better structure similarity in the enhanced image than did the space-variant luminance map (SVLM) method or the adaptive and integrated neighborhood dependent approach for nonlinear enhancement (AINDANE). The proposed method required the smallest computation time among the three algorithms. The proposed method can be easily implemented using the field-programmable gate array (FPGA), with low hardware resources and with better performance in terms of similarity.

The luminance of at PDP has been controlled by the number of sustain pulses. Therefore, it is very difficult to control the luminance by sustain pulses for a given gray level. This paper deals with a new method to control the luminance by the sustain pulse amplitude in ac PDP. The suggested method can control the luminance by 60% without change of the number of sustain pulses.

Light-emitting diode(LEDs), diode arrays, and phosphor display panels are finding increased use in a variety of commercial applications. Present and anticipated application of these devices include solid state indicator(e.g., digital clocks, meter readout) and display systems(e.g., instrument panels, TV display), the application being determined by the light -output capability and size availability(cost) of the particular device. In this work, Phosphor based on ZnS:Cu are used. Relation by luminance with the thickness of insulating layer and phosphor layer are discussed. Increased thickness of insulating layer are stable on voltage to 300V. By considering thickness and voltage, optimal structure and thickness are investigated. Also in order to maximize even surface emission, various sieving process are introduced. Very similar phosphor particle size is selected. Luminance by various wave intensity is also investigated. 150cd/m$^2$ luminance are investigated in stable voltage and frequency.

There is asymmetric in horizontal and vertical side of PDP cell. Every vertical line has BM(Black Mask) to improve luminance contrast. When error diffusion is processed in PDP system, these problems make an error bigger. In 4 inch PDP system, every red, green, blue color of test pattern is presented and each luminance is measured. That is called horizontal(H), diagonal right(R), diagonal left(L) and vertical(V). In red channel, high luminance descending order is V-H-R-L. In green channel, V-H-L-R. In blue channel, V-M-R=L. After average luminance of each direction is calculated. new weighted error diffusion(Weighted ED) is proposed. In digital image signal processing, the error in weighted ED is differ from ED's. The image of weighted ED is more less error compare to conventional ED and close to original image. As the gray level linearity and big size panel is adopted, weighted ED could produce good image.

In order to apply VLC (visible light communication) in harsh environment of nuclear power plant in-containment building, the high luminance LEDs, which are key components of the VLC system, have been gamma irradiated at the dose rate of 4 kGy/h during 72 hours up to a total dose of 288 kGy. The radiation induced coloration effect in the high luminance LED bulb made of acryl or plastic material was observed. In the VLC wireless data transmission experiment using the high luminance LEDs irradiated by high dose rate gamma-ray, the radiation induced coloration effect of the high luminance LED bulb extended the communication distance compared to non-irradiated LEDs.

The effects of an auxiliary address pulse driving scheme, in which an auxiliary short pulse is applied to the address electrode during a sustain-period, were examined under the various image patterns of the 42-inch WVGA ac-PDP. When the auxiliary address pulse driving scheme was applied, the luminance of the red, green and blue cells were measured respectively. And the luminance, luminous efficiency, and current were measured under the full-white pattern of the 42-inch ac-PDP. As a result, the luminance of blue cells was improved approximately by 17 %, whereas the luminous efficiency of the full-white pattern was improved approximately by 34 % without a misfiring discharge in comparison with conventional driving scheme.

Average illuminance and luminance can be calculated by graphical methods to a certain extent but to calculate for a wide place a suitable software is needed. Softwares suitable for this purpose have been already developed in foreign nations, but the appropriate softwares for domestic use have not been developed. Therefore a program is developed which is executable in Hangul Windows. The softwares LAPRoad, is developed to calculate luminance and illuminance distribution of road surface, as well as average luminance and illuminance, overall uniformity, longitudinal uniformity, threshold increment veilling luminance and glare. And an apparatus that measures road surface reflection properties is developed. Because the road surface reflection properties is very important in luminance calculation, then concrete road surface reflection properties were measured.

The luminance properties of FFL(Flat Fluorescent Lamp) backlights have been investigated in detail for the first time. The on-axis luminance gain as well as viewing-angle characteristics on various combinations of optical films were obtained from FFL backlight and compared to the results of conventional CCFL(cold-cathode fluorescent lamps) backlights. It was found that the on-axis luminance gains achieved by using optical films in the FFL backlight were lower than those in the CCFL backlight indicating that the recycling processes occurring between optical films and light sources/reflection sheet are not so effective in the FFL backlight due to the much larger area of, and thus higher absorption probability of the FFL. This result suggests that new optical films should be developed for FFL backlight and other flat-lamp backlight technologies.
