Self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) embedded in an InAlGaAs matrix were grown on an InP (001) using a solid-source molecular beam epitaxy and investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. TEM images indicated that the QD formation was strongly dependent on the growth behaviors of group III elements during the deposition of InAlGaAs barriers. We achieved a lasing operation of around 1.5 ${\mu}m$ at room temperature from uncoated QD lasers based on the InAlGaAs-InAlAs material system on the InP (001). The lasing wavelengths of the ridge-waveguide QD lasers were also dependent upon the cavity lengths due mainly to the gain required for the lasing operation.

The phosphor $CaTiO_3:Pr^{3+}$ attracts much attention as a low-voltage red phosphor because of its good chromaticity and intrinsic conductivity. The addition of Ga into this CaTiO₃:Pr led the luminance intensity to greatly enhance without the change of the wavelength for the electronic transition and the peak shape of it. The increase of the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs through the Ga ion doping, which was expected to play a role of a hole-trap center, is proposed to be one of the reasons for the enhancement of the cathodoluminescence intensity.

Silicate glasses with different $Nd_2O_3$ concentrations were prepared through conventional melt-quenching methods while PbS quantum dots (QDs) were precipitated through heat treatment. The peak wavelengths of absorption and the photoluminescence of PbS QDs shifted to the short-wavelength side as the concentration of $Nd_2O_3$ increased. The electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) indicated that $Nd^{3+}$ ions were preferentially distributed inside the PbS QDs instead of the glass matrix. In addition, there was no significant change in the lifetimes of the $Nd^{3+}:^4F_{3/2}$ fluorescence between the as-prepared glass ($607{\mu}s$) and the heat-treated glass($576{\mu}s$). $Nd^{3+}$ ions were surrounded by oxygen instead of sulfur and the Nd-O clusters probably acted as nucleating centers for the formation of PbS QDs inside the glasses.

High temperature superconducting (HTS) target has been irradiated by excimer laser beam. The surface of HTS target has been changed and showed the formation of cones. The laser ablated HTS target surface has been systematically studied using a scanning electron microscope. A KrF excimer laser with a wavelength of 248 nm was used to ablate the HTS YBCO target. The size of laser beam focused on the target showed a rectangular shape of $9.7{\times}2\;mm^2$. The image of SEM shows the difference between the shapes of cones fanned at the boundary and at the center of the ablated area after 1,000 laser pulses.

In this work, the silver nanoparticles have been synthesized by electrical explosion of wire in three liquid mediums: deionized water (DIW), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) solutions. Absorption in the UV-visible region of these suspensions was measured in the range of 300-800 nm. A surface plasmon peak was observed at ~400 nm in all suspensions in measured wavelength range. Particle size was analyzed by transmission electron microscope. It showed that the particles had nearly spherical shape in all samples. The average particle sizes prepared in DIW, PVP and SDBS solution were 37, 31 and 27 nm, respectively. Stability of the suspensions was estimated by multiple light scattering method. The presence of PVP and SDBS surfactants in the exploding medium resulted in enhanced stability of the silver suspensions.

Four aminoazobenzene disperse dyes derived from different N-ethyl-N-substitutedalkylanilines and 2-chloro-4-nitroaniline, were synthesized and their chemical structure were analyzed by 500 MHz NMR spectroscopy. The wavelength of maximum absorption of the synthesized dyes, which was dependent on the electron withdrawing ability of the substituent, was in the range of 499.5~526.0nm. As terminal substituent became polar, the dyeing rate of disperse dye increased, and the exhaustion rate of dyes having cyano or hydroxy group became lower, that of the dye having acetoxy group higher. The wash fastness of polyester fabric dyed with disperse dyes possessing the polar group improved probably due to the increased dye-fiber interaction.

The transport property of stabilized amorphous selenium typical of the material used in direct conversion x-ray imaging devices was studied using the moving photo-carrier grating (MPG) technique and time-of-flight (TOF) measurements. For MPG measurement, the electron and hole mobility, and recombination lifetime of a-Se films with arsenic (As) additions have been obtained. For TOF measurement, a laser beam with pulse duration of 5ns and wavelength of 350 nm was illuminated on the surface of a-Se with thickness of $400{\mu}m$.

Non-vacuum processing technology was used to produce $Cs_3Sb$ photocathodes on substrates and fabricate in-situ panel devices. Electrical properties of these panel devices were characterized by measuring anode current and charge dose as functions of devices operation time. An excitation light source with a 475 nm wavelength was used for photocathodes. Results showed that emission properties of these photocathode emitters depended heavily on the vacuum level of these devices and that $Cs_3Sb$ flat emitters had the potential of operating for a long lifetime with stable electron emission characteristics via re-cesiation process in the panel device. These features make $Cs_3Sb$ photocathodes suitable as flat emitters in panel device applications.

We investigate anisotropic texturing method for crystalline silicon solar cells with sodium carbonate solutions. Texturing temperature have a large effect on the density of pyramid. The dependence of the surface reflectance on solution temperature and the etching time was investigated. The surface morphology was observed by scanning electron microscope and the surface reflectance was evaluated. The reflection from the silicon surface in the wavelength range 400 to 1000nm is reduced to about 12%.

Weakly electron withdrawing bromine substituted poly(2-bromo-1,4-phenylenevinylene) (PBrPV) was synthesized th-rough water-soluble precursor method. The linear and nonlinear optical properties of PBrPV were compared with those of poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene) (PPV). The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility, X^{(3)}$, was measured by using third-harmonic generation (THG) technique at 1907 nm, fundamental wavelength. The calculated $X^{(3)}$ values of PPV and PBrPV were 3${\times}$ 10$^{-12}$ esu and 2${\times}$10$^{-12}$ esu, respectively.
