In this study, we used Brewster-Angle Microscope(BAM) to study on the molecular orientation of monolayer on the water surface. The behaviors of molecules on three different subphase have been observed. Reproducible $\pi$-A isotherm have been obtained only on information about phase transition by molecular area. BAM facilitates the observation of morphology by optical anisotropy and thickness in monolayer and multilayers as BAM is shown to be sensitive to anisotropy of film. Every transition was found by BAM technique, either as a dramatic change in degree of contrast or as a sudden alteration of molecular action and $\pi$-A isotherm.

The surface morphology of liquid crystal alignment layer has been investigated by using Brewster angle microscope(BAM) for the first time. The samples used in this work for liquid crystal alignment layer were mechanically rubbed polyimide films. The rubbing pattern on this layer has been analyzed with the terms of microgroove and rubbing induced optical birefringence. For the mechanically rubbed surface, the geometrical factors of microgroove play the major role for the formation of rubbing pattern. We propose that the BAM can be used as a powerful tool not only for observing the rubbing pattern, but also for inspecting the surface defects.

To observe the Langmuir films, displacement current measuring system(Nippon Laser & Electronics), $\pi-A$ isotherms measuring device, and Brewster Angle Microscope(BAM) were used. As results, for 8A5H, big tilt angle changes of many molecules were detected before liquid expanded phase when the monolayer was compressed and expanded by barrier. Also many small and bright points were detected by BAM when the displacement current radically changed. In $\pi$-A isotherms, surface pressure of 8A5H was radically decreased between 35 and 40[mN/m] and monolayer was assumed to be collapsed in solid condensed phase, since large bright domain was observed without change of displacement current and this bright boundary was not classified part of domain in BAM image. If we observe behaviors of molecules on the water surface in these three measurement at the same time, we can get more precise informations on L films and it could be good data for fabricating LB films.

Brewster angle microscopy(BAM) makes it possible to observe the monolayer states on the water subphase and the phase transitions from a gaseous phase via a expanded phase to a condensed phase. Also BAM can be used to observe the films on the solid substrate such as Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films. In this Paper Polyamic Acid Alkylamine Salts(PAAS) was used for forming L films and LB films and $\pi$-A isotherm showed pressure of each phase. We obtained BAM images as surface pressure increased. Images of LB films were compared with data from ellipsometry which was used to measure the film thickness. Images of both L films and LB films were analyzed with computer in the point of brightness.

We investigated domains and conoscope under the polarizing microscope and the index of refraction on the c-plate GMO which has the ferroelectric and ferroelastic phase at room temperature. To observed the change of refractive index in connection with domain, we developed an apparatus to obtain the refractive index by measuring the Brewster's angle. The resolution of the minimum rotation angle of this apparatus is $0.001^{\circ}$. To obtain the refractive index map on the sample, the moving distance of XY stage loaded sample holder is 60 mm and the minimum moving distance is 0.002 mm. Also, To obtain the indicatrix for single crystal, vertical turntable with sample holder and XY stage was loading on horizontal turntable. The minimum resolution angle of this vertical turntable is $0.001^{\circ}$. We measured the refractive index of transparent materials such as ferroelectrics. In the case of $Gd_{2}(MoO_{4})_{3}$, the Brewster angle is $62.11^{\circ}$ and then, the refractive index is 1.8895 by using He-Ne Laser. Also the refractive distribution of c-plate GMO was obtained with $400{\mu}m{\times}120{\mu}m$.

반도체 및 박막의 두께 측정에 많이 이용되는 분광 타원해석기의 입사각을 정밀하게 보정하기 위한 방법을 제안하고 이를 실험적으로 확인하였다. 몇 종류의 광학유리를 이용하여 프리즘과 기판을 가공하였다. 프리즘의 꼭지각과 최소 벗어나 기각을 측정해 광학유리의 굴절률을 결정하였고 브루스터각(Brewster's angle)에서 측정한 유리기판의 타원해석 스펙트럼을 분석하기 위한 기준값으로 이 굴절률을 사용하여 분광 타원해석기의 입사각을 0.01도의 정밀도로 결정,보정하였다.

발진 파장 영역이 매우 광범위한 티타늄 사파이어를 사용하여 접힌 공진기 형태의 레이저를 제작하고 연속 발진 특성을 조사하였다. 티타늄 사파이어 결정은 $Ti^{3+}$ 도핑율이 0.15wt.%이고 두께가 4.1mm이며 양면이 Brewster 각으로 되어 있는 것을 사용하였다. Brewster 면에서는 비점수차가 발생하므로 이를 보정하기 위하여 공진기의 접힌 각도를 $15.4^{\circ}$로 조정하였다. 펌핑 광원으로는 Ar-ion 레이저를 사용하였고, 반사율 90%의 출력경을 사용하여 2W 펌핑에서 레이저 발진이 시작되었으며, 5W 펌핑에서 450mW 이상의 츨력을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 공진기의 두 오목거울 간의 거리에 따라 출력 변화를 조사하였다.

The capacity and long life of gel electrolyte batteries is connected with gas recombination producting $PbO_2$ and Pb electrode. We prepared with sulfuric acid gel electrolyte to know gel characteristics per density to assemble valve regulated lead-acid (VRLA) batteries. We studied on actions of sulphuric acid gel electrolyte by measuring electrolyte dispersion using Brewster-angle microscope (BAM), charge-discharge cycle, and electrode structure using scanning election microscope (SEM). Sulphuric acid density 1.210 showed excellent gel dispersion in sol condition, electrode condition after fifty cycles in this study.

In this study, we used both displacement-current method and BAM(Brewster-Angle Microscope) to study on the molecular orientation of monolayer on the water surface. The displacement-current method measured behaviors of molecules by current and BAM was shown to be sensitive to film anisotropy even when the molecules were not tilted as long as the unit cell was anisotropic. Every transition was visible with BAM technique, either as a dramatic change in decree of contrast or as a sudden alteration of the mosaic domain texture.
