The two-photon absorption of a SiC photodiode was utilized to obtain autocorrelation signals of the pulses from a mode-locked Rh6G dye laser. The autocorrelation signals were in good agreement with those obtained by a conventional autocorrelator using a second harmonic crystal and photomultiplier tube. The sensitivity of the autocorrelator with the SiC photodiode was about $4{\times}10^3 {(mW)}^2$ . From these results it was demonstrated that the SiC photodiode is suitable as a nonlinear device for an autocorrelation measurement in the visible range.

Folded Box coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (FBCARS) spectra of the fundamental symmetric stretch(213 $cm^{-1}$) and the first overtone(421 $cm^{-1}$) of $I_2$ have been recorded over the pump wavelength range from 495 nm to 580 nm. The lineshapes were fitted using the least squares method and the A and C term of CARS were calculated. From the fitting of A and C terms, the real(R) and imaginary(I) term intensity of CARS were calculated using harmonic oscillator program. The calculated CARS excitation profile of $I_2$ with R and I term data was about 270 $cm^{-1}$ red shifted from the absorption spectrum.

Photoionization processes of TMPD in $H_2O$ and $D_2O$ were studied, by measuring steady-state absorption, emission, fluorescence excitation spectra, and fluorescence lifetimes on picosecond time scale. The steady-state absorption spectra showed that there exists a cation-ion pair (Wurster's Blue) in $H_2O$ and in $D_2O$ in the electronic ground state. Temperature and excitation wavelength dependence were also studied and the results show that the photoionization reaction in water is an activated process and the fluorescence lifetime is independent of the vibrational excess energy in the uv excitation range of 283-310 nm.

Laser induced impedance changes in hollow cathode lamps containing sputtered metal atoms have been employed to measure the spectroscopic properties of metal. This technique, known as optogalvanic spectroscopy, has been shown to be a powerful and inexpensive technique for the investigation of atomic and molecular species. Characteristic optogalvanic signals from hollow cathode lamps (HCL) made of different metal species and induced with a pulsed dye laser were observed, and the dependence of the optogalvanic signal on the discharge current and wavelength of laser was measured. Based on the results obtained, the mechanisms involved in evoking the optogalvanic signals were consisted of single-photon absorption, multi-photon absorption, and photoionization. Moreover the current dependence of the optogalvanic signal indicates that the optogalvanic technique could be one of the most sensitive optical methods of detecting atomic species.

Near-infrared (NIR) sensing technology using CMOS image sensors is used in many applications, including automobiles, biological inspection, surveillance, and mobile devices. An intuitive way to improve NIR sensitivity is to thicken the light absorption layer (silicon). However, thickened silicon lacks NIR sensitivity and has other disadvantages, such as diminished optical performance (e.g. crosstalk) and difficulty in processing. In this paper, a pixel structure for NIR sensing using a stacked CMOS image sensor is introduced. There are two photodetection layers, a conventional layer and a bottom photodiode, in the stacked CMOS image sensor. The bottom photodiode is used as the NIR absorption layer. Therefore, the suggested pixel structure does not change the thickness of the conventional photodiode. To verify the suggested pixel structure, sensitivity was simulated using an optical simulator. As a result, the sensitivity was improved by a maximum of 130% and 160% at wavelengths of 850 nm and 940 nm, respectively, with a pixel size of 1.2 ㎛. Therefore, the proposed pixel structure is useful for NIR sensing without thickening the silicon.

원자력 발전소에서 사용되는 연료의 효율을 증가시키기 위해서는 반응로에서 연소된 연료에 잔존하는 미량의 란탄족 (lanthanide)과 악티늄족 (actinide) 원소를 측정하고, 동위원소 성분비를 분석하는 작업이 필요하다. 이러한 미량원소 측정에는 흡수분광학 (absorption spectroscopy) 방법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 최근 들어 단일 종 모드 (single-longitudinal mode) 반도체 레이저가 개발되면서 미량원소 분석을 위한 분광 기술이 급속히 발전하고 있다. 반도체 레이저는 동작시킬 때 전력소모가 적고, 설치 공간이 작다는 점 때문에 현장 적용이 용이하므로 미량원소 측정 연구의 광원으로 많이 활용되고 있다.

The charge-transfer(CT) complexes derived from phenothiazine as donor and quinonoid compounds as accepters were evaluated as coloring matter. Light fastness of the intermolecular charge-transfer(CT) complex dyes as well as absorption wavelength is an important factor when the complexes are applied to coloring matters. The photofading mechanism of CT complex dyes of phenothiazine and accepters were examined. The addition of effective radical scavenger, antioxidant and photostabilizer gave a remarkable enhancement of the photostability of CT dyes.

The Mg II lines been extracted from the IUE archival spectra of 32 Cygni to investigate the effect of the atmospheric eclipse. The UV light curve has been reduced from the continuum flux at the center wavelength of 2807.5 ${\AA}$ in the IUE spectra. The equivalent width of the Mg II k absoption line has been measured for each spectra. The results of the light variation and flux tracing of the absorption line at the vicinity of the primary eclipse confirmed the atmospheric eclipse. The atmospheric effect lasted until the phase 0.06 in the absorptin line tracing, while it lasted until the phase 0.02 in the UV light curve, respectively.

Ultraviolet spectra of 5-and 6-uracilyl compounds which contain conjugated double bonds were obtained and their characteristic phenomena were examined. 5-Formyluracil and 6-methyl-5-formyluracil showed bathochromic shifts which should be expected from a conjugated carbonyl compound. 6-Formyluracil did not show any shift in absorbing wavelength. 5-and 6-uracilylacrylic acid derivatives, on the other hand, showed absorption at similar wavelengths, indicating the presence of a hexatriene chromophore. The ratio of ${\Delta}ν/J$ in nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of those compounds decreased drastically as the acrylic acids or esters were converted into amides.

Colored components in black tea were extracted, freeze-dried, and analysed to investigate the possibility using as a natural dye. Fractionation of the colored components was carried out by gel permeation chromatography. The colored components in black tea were elected into seven fractions. Each fraction was analyzed by UV spectrophotometer. The early fluted fractions 1-4 did not show any absorption peaks in 320-700 nm and showed the increase in absorption as it approaches to short wavelength and are considered as highly polymerized colored substances. Fractions 5-6 showed tar at 350 m and are considered as thearubigins. Fraction 7 showed absorption peaks at 376 nm and 456 nm and is considered as theaflavin. IR spectra of each fraction show: Strong C=0 stretching band at 1650 cm-1 appears in fractions 1-4, but not in fractions 5-7. Strong C=0 stretching band at 1700 cm-L appears in fraction 3-7. C=0 stretching band at 1610 cm-1 appears as a shoulder in fraction 4 and progressively changes into strong peak in fraction 5-7. From these results, it is assumed that colored components in black tea consist of polyphenolic substances having different molecular weight which were formed during tea manufacturing process. The colorants from black tea infusion were applied to silk, wool, cotton and nylon fabrics. Black tea colorants showed high affinity to wool, silk and nylon, but very low affinity to cotton fabrics.
