In this study, photoluminescence (PL) analysis was performed to evaluate the optical properties of commercial ZnO substrates. Particular attention was paid to the bound exciton (BX) luminescence, which is usually the strongest emission intensity of commercial substrates. At 15 K, PL analysis revealed that the BX peak due to donor-type impurities (donor-bound-exciton; DX) dominated, while two-electron satellite (TES) emission, donor-accepter pair (DAP) emission, and LO-phonon replica emission were also observed. The impurity concentration of the ZnO substrate was determined to be $10^{15}$ to $10^{16}/cm^3$ by examination of the temperature variation of DAP, while the half width and intensity change of the luminescence revealed that the temperature change of BX can be interpreted almost the same as the analysis of free-exciton emission.

In this study, the physical and optical properties of $ZnS:Mn^{2+}$ Quantum Dot prepared by wet-process condition with Mn/Zn ratio was valuated. The powder characteristics and optical behavior were investigated through XRD, TEM and Photo spectrometer exicted by various UV light source. We found the main peak of ZnS (111) was shifted by 0.8 degree to low angle position with increasing stirring energy from 200 RPM to 600 RPM, which is thought to be the increase of lattice defects during wet process. The photo luminescence at 600 RPM shows also higher blue intensity which is well correlated with XRD results. With increasing Mn/Zn ratio, the PL intensity become higher and shifed by 8.5nm to right side, by the increment of substitutional $Mn^{2+}$ ions.

The $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thick films were fabricated using a screen printing method on Si(100) substrates at various sintering temperatures. The XRD patterns show that the $ZnGa_2O_4$ thick films have a (311) main peak and a spinel structure with increasing sintering temperatures. The particle sizes of $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor were about 100 nm and the thickness of $ZnGa_2O_4$ thick film was $10{\mu}m$. The CL and PL properties of $ZnGa_2O_4$ showed main peak of 420nm and maximum intensity at the sintering temperature of $900^{\circ}C$. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thick films hold promise for displays such as plasma display panel and field emission display.

Ge-doped rnulticomponent oxide glasses were prepared by a conventional melting method. The change of micro structure in glasses was investigated by using PL (photoluminescence) and ESR (electron spin resonance). Before UV irradiation, the PL intensity increased according to germanium contents, but decreased the intensity as soon as UV irradiation. A changed property was recovered near it original properties when it was annealed. These photodarkening and thermal bleaching effect were observed by ESR intrument. These effect did not change the glass phase but vary only change of micro structure.

Zinc sulfide is a well-known host material of phosphor emitting different radiations dependent on different doping impurities of metallic ion. It emits green, blue, orange-yellow or white colors by doping with activators such as copper, silver, manganese and so on. In this study, manganese, copper and chlorine doped ZnS phosphor (ZnS:Mn,Cu,Cl) was synthesized by solid-state reaction method. The optical properties were investigated according to different concentrations of sulfur and activators used during the synthesis process.

We report a photoluminescence (PL) study on the growth process of self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) under the various growth conditions. Distinctive double-peak feature was observed in the PL spectra of the QD samples grown at the relatively high substrate temperature. From the excitation power-dependent PL and the temperature-dependent PL measurements, the double-peak feature is associated with the ground state transitions from InAs QDs with two different size branches. In addition, the variation in the bimodal size distribution of the QD ensembles with different InAs coverage is demonstrated.

In this study, quantum dots composed of $Mn^{2+}$ doped ZnS core and ZnS shell were synthesized using MPA precursor at room temperature. The ZnS: Mn/ZnS quantum dots were prepared by varying the content of MPA in the synthesis of ZnS shells. XRD, Photo-Luminescence (PL), XPS and TEM were used to characterize the properties of the ZnS: Mn/ZnS quantum dots. As a result of PL measurement using UV excitation light at 365 nm, the PL intensity was found to greatly increase when MPA was added at 15 ml, compared to the case with no MPA; the PL peaks shifted from 603 nm to 598 nm. A UV sensor was fabricated by using a sputtering process to form a Pt pattern and placing a QD on the Pt pattern. To verify the characteristics of the sensor, we measured the electrical properties via irradiation with UV, Red, Green, and Blue light. As a result, there were no reactions for the R, G, and B light, but an energy of 3.39 eV was produced with UV light irradiation. For the sensor using ZnS: Mn/ZnS quantum dots, the maximum current (A) value decreased from $4.00{\times}10^{-11}$ A to $2.62{\times}10^{-12}$ A with increasing of the MPA content. As the MPA content increases, the PL intensity improves but the electrical current value dropped because of the electron confinement effect of the core-shell.

In this study, the praseodymium-doped yttrium phosphate (YPO₄:Pr³⁺) powder, which is well known for its high luminescent efficiency, and long life in the UV range, was synthesized with various content ratios of Pr₆O₁₁ and calcination temperature. Crystal structure and luminescent properties of various phosphor powders based on different concentrations and calcination conditions were characterized by XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) and PL (photoluminescence) spectrometers. From the XRD analysis, the structure of YPO₄:Pr³⁺ which is calcinated at 1,200℃ was stable tetragonal phase and crystal size was calculated about 25 nm by Scherrer equation. PL emission of YPO₄:Pr³⁺ with a different content ratio of Pr₆O₁₁ by excitation λ_exc=250 nm shows that 0.75 mol% phosphor powder has maximum PL intensity and PL decreases with the increase of the ratio of Pr₆O₁₁ up to 1.25 mol% which is caused by changes of crystallinity of phosphor powders. With increasing dopant ratio, photo-luminescence Emission decreases due to Concentration quenching, which is commonly observed in phosphors. Currently, 0.75 mol% is considered the optimal doping concentration. A hybrid ultraviolet-emitting device incorporating YPO₄:Pr³⁺ fluorescent material with plasma discharge was fabricated to enhance UV germicidal effects while minimizing ozone generation. UV emission from the plasma discharge device was shown at about 200 nm and 350 nm which caused additional emission of the regions of 250 nm, 315 nm, and 370 nm from the YPO₄:Pr³⁺ phosphor.
