In the dye sensitization for the solar energy conversion with a photoelectrochemical cell containing allylthiourea, the time profile of the sensitized photocurrent showed a rise and fall with the irradiation time. The dye solution before and after irradiation was analyzed by means of spectroscopic methods. A new precipitation reaction between sensitizer and supersensitizer and photobleaching of the dye appeared to be involved in the decreased photocurrent.

The enhancement of the solar energy conversion efficiency into the electrical energy by the dye sensitization with a photoelectrochemical cell was studied. The magnitude of the rose bengal sensitized photocurrent containing the supersensitizer, thiourea was five times greater than that in the absence of thiourea. It was observed, however, that the long time span of irradiation causes the decrease in the photocurrent. Spectroscopic analysis of the dye solution showed that the dye molecule was photobleached and the insoluble aggregate which settles down in the solution, was formed as a result of the possible photocatalytic reaction and the disappearance of dye from the solution was the cause of the decreased photocurrent in the sensitization run.

Low priced and environment-friendly natural dye from coumarin- containing plants for the dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) was developed. Dyes were extracted from cinnamon and angelica that contained coumarin derivatives, and DSSCs employing these dyes were prepared. PV efficiency of 0.75% was obtained from cinnamon dye, which is comparable to the highest efficiency reported in precedent studies about natural dye DSSC. It was confirmed by UV-visible and FT-IR spectroscopy that coumarin derivatives in the plants acted as photosensitive material.

Fluorimetric and absorption spectroscopic studies were performed to elucidate the photocurrent decay with time in the conversion process of solar energy into electrical energy using a photoelectrochemical cell containing rose bengal as a sensitizer, and allylthiourea as a supersensitizer. Spectra of dye solution before and after irradiation revealed a new photocatalytic dimerization reaction between sensitizer and supersensitizer. It was also found that the geometrical arrangement of the transition dipoles is oblique in the dimer of dye molecules.

We realized the national standard of the candela, one of the SI units, by using two photometers with the spectral responsivity measured in reference to the absolute cryogenic radiometer. The external apertures of the photometers were fabricated using a diamond turning machine, and measured in terms of area with uncertainty of 0.05 %(k = 1). The candela is realized using a 1 kW FEL lamp and the characterized photometers on an optical bench. The uncertainty is budgeted to be 0.25 %(k = 1) considering the uncertainty of the spectral responsivity and the response uniformity of the detectors, the area of the external apertures, the color temperature of the lamp, and the positioning reproducibility of the photometers and the lamp. We verified the realized scale by comparing with the scale of National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA. They coincided with each other within 0.1%.

Electron injection from excited rose bengal into the conduction band of a thin film of $SnO_2$ semiconductor in acetonitrile was investigated in an electrochemical cell, ITO/$SnO_2$/rose bengal, NaI or $I_2$, $NaClO_4$/Pt. It was observed that NaI enhanced the supersensitized photocurrent, followed by the slow reduction, whereas $I_2$ yielded a fast decaying photocurrent. Spectroscopic analyses of the dye solution containing NaI revealed that electron is transferred to the $SnO_2$ electrode from the reduced rose bengal and iodide is responsible for the reduction of the dye in triplet state. However $I_2$ appears to possess neither the reducing ability of the oxidized dye nor the retardation of the dehalogenation of RB.

To elucidate the decay of the rose bengal (RB) sensitized and thiourea (TU) supersensitized photocurrent, spectroscopic analyses of the dye solution were performed. Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic analyses of sensitizing solution before and after irradiation enabled to conform the new mechanism of the photocatalytic dimerization between RB and TU. And it was also found that the geometrical arrangement of the transition dipole moment is oblique and the angle between the dipoles is $124^{\circ}$ in the dimer of dye molecules.

In order to improve spectrum sensitivity of photodiode for detection of the laser at 850 nm ~ 1000 nm of near-infrared wavelength band, this study has produced silicon-based fast film PIN photodiode and analyzed electrical and optical properties. The manufactured device is packaged in TO-18 type. The electrical properties of the dark currents both Anode 1 and Anode 2 have valued of approximately 0.055 nA for 5 V reverse bias, while the capacitance showed 19.5 pF at frequency range of 1 kHz and about 19.8 pF at the range of 200 kHz for 0 V. In addition, the rising time of output signal was verified to have fast response time of about 30 ns for 10 V. For the optical properties, the best spectrum sensitivity was 0.66 A/W for 880 nm, while it was relatively excellent value of 0.45 A/W for 1,000 nm.
