In recent years, energy-management studies in buildings have proven useful for energy savings. Typically, during heating and cooling, the energy from a given building is lost through its windows. Generally, to block the entry of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) rays, thin films of deposited metals or metal oxides are used, and the blocking of UV and IR rays by these thin films depends on the materials deposited on them. Therefore, by controlling the thicknesses and densities of the thin films, improving the transmittance of visible light and the blocking of heat rays such as UV and IR may be possible. Such improvements can be realized not only by changing the two-dimensional thin films but also by altering the zero-dimensional (0-D) nanostructures deposited on the films. In this study, 0-D nanoparticles were synthesized using a sol -gel procedure. The synthesized nanoparticles were deposited as deep coatings on polymer and glass substrates. Through spectral analysis in the UV-visible (vis) region, thin-film layers of deposited zinc oxide nanoparticles blocked >95 % of UV rays. For high transmittance in the visible-light region and low transmittance in the IR and UV regions, hybrid multiple layers of silica nanoparticles, zinc oxide particles, and fluorine-doped tin oxide nanoparticles were formed on glass and polymer substrates. Spectrophotometry in the UV-vis-near-IR regions revealed that the substrates prevented heat loss well. The glass and polymer substrates achieved transmittance values of 80 % in the visible-light region, 50 % to 60 % in the IR region, and 90 % in the UV region.

We performed three-dimensional Monte Carlo dust scattering radiative transfer simulations for FUV light to obtain dust scattered FUV images and compared them with the observed FUV image obtained by FIMS/SPEAR and GALEX. From this, we find the scattering properties of interstellar dust in our Galaxy and suggest the intensity of extragalactic background light (EBL) at FUV wavelength. The best-fit values of the scattering properties of interstellar dust are albedo = 0.38^-0.04_+0.04, g-factor = 0.55^-0.15_+0.10, and EBL = 138^-23₊₂₁ CU for the allsky which are consistent well with the Milky Way dust model of Draine and direct measurements of Gardner et al., respectively. At the high Galactic latitude of |b|>10°, the observation is well fitted with the model of lower albedo = 0.35^-0.04_+0.06 and g-factor = 0.50^-0.20_+0.15. On the contrary, the scattering properties of interstellar dust show higher albedo = 0.43^-0.02_+0.02 and g-factor = 0.65^-0.15_+0.05 near the Galactic plane of |b|<10°. In the present simulation, recent three-dimensional distribution maps of interstellar dust in our Galaxy, stellar distances in the catalog of GAIA DR2, and FUV fluxes and/or spectral types in the TD-1 and Hipparcos star catalogs were used.

An irradiator is developed using two UVA wavelength ranges of SMD LEDs as a curing light source. This module has dimensions of 545×111×300 mm³ and is equipped with a TIR bar-shaped lens made of PDMS silicone resin. The developed irradiator offers high uniformity, with 89% in the centerline of the horizontal axis direction, for two different wavelength ranges of 365 nm and 385 nm. The radiation intensity from the light source module shows highly directional characteristics, and the irradiator provides a maximum irradiance of 1,634 mW/cm² at a working distance of 50 mm. During the initial 5 minutes of operation, the irradiance experiences a rapid decrease. However, this issue is addressed by optimizing the LED's current reduction characteristics and managing the Transistor's temperature rise in the constant current circuit. After continuous operation for approximately 60 minutes. The highest temperature, near the central part of the irradiating surface, reaches 69.7℃, while the lowest temperature, near the edges, is 41.1℃.

Pink root of onion occurred in the fields of the Onion Experimental Station and in the main onion cultivation area in Korea in 1998 and 1999, respectively. The casual fungus of pink root was isolated only from apricot agar. Formation of pycnidia and pycnidiospores of the fungus was highest in alternating cycles of 12 hours near ultraviolet light and 12 hours in dark condition. Its morphological characteristics and pigment formation on water agar were identical with that of Pyrenochaeta terrestris. The optimum temperature for the growth of the fungus and disease development was $25-28^{\circ}C$. When onion seeds were inoculated with the spore suspension, incubated in test-tube and sown in potted soil, disease symptoms developed in onion roots 7 and 30 days after inoculation.

A disease causing severe leaf spots in pepper plants has been observed in northern Gyeongbuk and Gangwon provinces in Korea since 1994. The current study diagnosed the disease as gray leaf spot caused by Stemphylium solani Weber and S. lycopersici (Enjoji) Yamamoto, both of which are pathogenic in pepper and tomato plants. Although the disease has been found in almost all areas where peppers are grown, it is more severe in mountain terrains where the nights are cool. Both species of pathogenic fungi were found to sporu-late profusely on V-8 juice agar in plastic or Pyrex glass Petri dishes, although not in domestically-produced glass Petri dishes, when cultured at $20^{\circ}C$ under irradi-ation from a daylight fluorescent lamp with a 12-hour light and dark alternation. The domestically-produced glass Petri dishes, which are made of window glass, were found to block near ultraviolet wavelengths, around and below 300 nm, which explained why the fungi did not sporulate. However, sporulation decreased at above $25^{\circ}C$ and most isolates failed to sporulate above $27^{\circ}C$. The worst level of disease was obtained when the inoculated plants were incubated with a $15^{\circ}C$ night and $20^{\circ}C$ day temperature regime relative to 4 night/day temperature combinations (15/20, 20/25, 25/30, and 30/35$^{\circ}C$).

We examined the effect of two greenhouse covering materials (glass or solid polycarbonate sheets) on the light environment and growth of tomato and cucumber plants. Spectral analysis showed that polycarbonate sheets entirely blocked radiation in both the UV - B (300 - 320 nm) and UV - A (320 - 400 nm) ranges, whereas glass transmitted UV - A and was only opaque to UV - B. The transmittance of photosynthetically active radiation (400 - 700 nm) and near infrared radiation (700 - 1100 nm) was higher in polycarbonate than glass. Air and soil temperatures were not significantly different between greenhouses covered with either material. The growth of cucumber plants was slightly affected by covering materials, whereas no significant changes in growth parameters were observed for tomato plants. The color parameters of tomato fruits were affected by the cover material, whereas cucumber fruits showed similar coloration in both glass and polycarbonate greenhouses.

Monte-Carlo radiative models of the diffuse Galactic light (DGL) in our Galaxy are calculated using the dust radiative transfer code MoCafe, which is three-dimensional and takes full account of multiple scattering. The code is recently updated to use a fast voxel traversal algorithm, which has dramatically increased the computing speed. The radiative transfer models are calculated with the generally accepted dust scale-height of 0.1 kpc. The stellar scale-heights are assumed to be 0.1 or 0.35 kpc, appropriate for far-ultraviolet (FUV) and optical wavelengths, respectively. The face-on optical depth, measured perpendicular to the Galactic plane, is also varied from 0.2 to 0.6, suitable to the optical to FUV wavelengths, respectively. We find that the DGL at high Galactic latitudes is mostly due to backward or large-angle scattering of starlight originating from the local stars within a radial distance of r < 0.5 kpc from the Earth. On the other hand, the DGL measured in the Galactic plane is mostly due to stars at a distance range that corresponds to an optical depth of $${\sim_\sim}$$ 1 measured from the Earth. Therefore, the low-latitude DGL at the FUV wavelength band would be mostly caused by the stars located at a distance of $r{\leq}0.5$ kpc and the optical DGL near the Galactic plane mainly originates from stars within a distance range of $1{\leq}r{\leq}2kpc$. We also calculate the radiative transfer models in a clumpy two-phase medium. The clumpy two-phase models provide lower intensities at high Galactic latitudes compared to the uniform density models, because of the lower effective optical depth in clumpy media. However, no significant difference in the intensity at the Galactic plane is found.

해양에서 기름 유출 사고로 인한 오염도를 정량적으로 평가하기 위해서, 사고 현장에서 기름을 직접 탐지할 수 있는 센서의 적용이 필요하다. 여러 형태의 기름 탐지 센서 중에서, 기름 성분에 의한 형광 현상(fluorescence)을 탐지 원리로 하는 센서는 해수 중에 존재하는 기름의 농도를 측정할 수 있으므로 효용성이 높은 장점을 갖고 있다. 그러나 이런 종류의 센서는 기름의 형광 현상을 야기시키기 위해서, 수은 램프(mercury lamp)와 같은 자외선 광원(ultraviolet light source)이 필요하고 다양한 종류의 광학 필터와 광전증배관(photomultiplier tube, PMT)과 같은 광학 센서가 주로 사용된다. 이러한 이유로 형광 측정을 기반으로 하고 있는 센서는 측정 플랫폼의 크기가 크기 때문에 현장에서 원활히 사용하기에 한계가 있으며, 고가의 부품들이 집적되어 있어, 센서의 가격이 높은 단점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해서, 본 논문에서는 소형의 크기와 가격 경쟁력을 갖고 있는 형광 광도계 기반의 기름 탐지 센서를 설계하는 방법에 대해서 제시하였다. 형광 광도계의 설계 인자를 파악하기 위한 방법으로, 본 연구에서는 5종의 원유 샘플과 3종의 정제유를 이용하여, 기름의 여기 스펙트럼(excitation spectrum)과 발광 스펙트럼(emission spectrum)을 측정하였다. 여기 스펙트럼과 발광 스펙트럼의 측정을 위해서는 형광 분광기(fluorescence spectrometer)를 이용하였고, 측정된 스펙트럼 자료를 분석하여 형광 광도계(fluorimeter) 설계에 필요한 유종에 따른 공통 스펙트럼 파장 대역을 도출하였다. 본 실험을 통해서 모든 종류의 기름 샘플의 경우, 여기 스펙트럼과 발광 스펙트럼의 최고 값을 갖는 파장의 차이는 약 50 nm인 것으로 파악되었다. 실험 중에서, 여기광의 파장을 365 nm와 405 nm로 고정하였을 경우, 280 nm와 325 nm로 고정하였을 경우에 비해서 최대 발광(emission)의 세기가 작아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 형광 광도계의 광원 파장을 365 nm 또는 405 nm로 사용할 경우, 광학 센서의 민감도(sensitivity)가 발광되는 빛의 세기를 측정할 수 있도록 설계에 반영해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 실험에서 도출된 결과를 통해서, 기름 탐지를 위한 형광 광도계의 광원, 광학 센서 그리고 광학 필터의 유효 파장 대역을 선택하는데 필요한 설계 인자를 파악할 수 있었다.
