The photoluminescence of calixarene crystals has been studied as functions of temperature, time, and concentration. The vibronic bands shift to longer wavelength and become significantly sharper as temperature decreases. The experimental results r eveal that the structural transformation occur during the annealing process. Time-resolved spectra of calixarene at 12 K are monitored. Spectral features, which demonstrate characteristic of energy transfer processes, are not observed. The depopulation of excited state density is mainly controlled by unimolecular decay process dominating other decay processes. The lifetime was found to be 2.6 $\pm$ 0.1 ns. For the case of calixarene mixed with naphthalene, the fluorescence spectrum shows that the band centered at 340 nm lies 2840 $cm^{-1}$ below the relatively broad 310 nm band found for calixarene crystals. The spectra also exhibit that the emission intensity increases with increasing calixarene concentration. The results are evident that the calixarene emission is quenched by the naphthalene. Phosphorescence of calixarene mixed with naphthalene crystals is observed to determine whether the emission is due to naphthalene. The phosphorescence peaks were compared with the ground-state vibrational frequencies of naphthalene and found to be in good agreement. The results indicate that inter-molecular energy transfer occurs between calixarene and naphthalene.

We have fabricated top-emission. organic ligth-emitting diodes in a structure of Glass/Al/2-TNATA/TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al/Ag. By varying a film thickness of 2-TNATA and TPD, current efficiency, luminance efficiency, and viewing angle dependence of the device were measured. The top device using $Alq_3$ showed electroluminescent peak wavelengths of 522nm and 505nm at $0^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ viewing angles, respectively. It is thought that a microcavity effect affects on peak wavelength position for different viewing angles.

ZnO thin films on (001) sapphire substrates have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser with the wavelength of 355 nm. In order to investigate the effect of the deposition conditions on the properties of ZnO thin films at an oxygen pressure of 350 mTorr, the experiment has been Performed at various substrate temperatures in the range of 20$0^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$. According to XRD, (002) textured ZnO films of high crystalline quality have been obtained and the intensity of UV emission was the highest at 40$0^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature.

In the construction of a white LED, the region of the red emission is a very important factor. Red light emitting materials play an important role in improving the color rendering index of commercial lighting. These materials also increase the color gamut of display products. Therefore, the development of novel phosphors with red emission and the study of color tuning are actively underway to improve product quality. In the present study, heuristic algorithms were used to search for phosphors capable of increasing the color rendering index and color gamut. Using a heuristic algorithm, the phosphors that were identified were $SrGe_4O_9:Mn^{4+}$ and $BaGe_4O_9:Mn^{4+}$. Emission spectra study confirmed that these phosphors emit light in the deep red wavelength region, which can fulfill the requirement for the improvement in color rendering index and color gamut for a white LED.

A series of new polymers containing phenylenevinylene (PV) units were synthesized by Wittig polycondensation reaction and properties of the synthesized polymers were characterized by FT-IR and UV-visible spectroscopy, and their light-emitting properties were studied. All of the synthesized polymers were soluble in organic solvents and showed good film quality. The absorption maxima and band edges of the polymers were moved to shorter wavelength region by reducing the electron donating alkoxy groups incorporated in phenylenevinylene unit. The photo-induced emission spectra were obtained and all of the polymers revealed their emission in blue region. The observed emission maxima of the polymers were ranged from 480-495 nm.

The preparation and photoluminescence properties of $ZnGa_2O_4$ : Mn phosphor are presented. Under 254 nm excitation $Zn_1-_xMn_xGa_2O_4$ exhibits the green emission band at 506 nm wavelength and maximum intensity where x=0.005. The manganese activated $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor prepared by the polymerized complex method shows a remarkable increase in the emission intensity and is smaller particle size than that prepared by conventional method. Also, electron paramagnetic resonance study on $ZnGa_2O_4$ : Mn powders indicates that the increase in emission intensity after firing treatment in mild hydrogen reducing atmosphere is due to the conversion of the higher valent manganese to $Mn^{2+}$.

The impact of the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) on the gain recovery time of a bulk semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is investigated. The gain-recovery time is obtained by determining the time evolution of the gain, carrier density, and ASE in an SOA, after the propagation of a short pump pulse and continuous-wave (CW) probe of gain dynamics. In the simulation, a wide-band-semiconductor model, which can be characterized by the material gain coefficient over a wide wavelength range, is used, because the gain bandwidth of a practical SOA is very wide. The pump pulse and counterpropagating CW probe field are considered in the simulation, with the ASE noise spectrum equally divided.

We fabricate and analyze fully depleted optical thyristors (DOTs) using quarter wavelength reflector stacks (QWRS). QWRS are employed as bottom mirrors to enhance the emission efficiency as well as the optical sensitivity. In order to analyze their switching characteristics, S-shape nonlinear current-voltage curves are simulated and the reverse full-depletion voltages (Vneg's) of DOTs are obtained as function of semiconductor parameters by using a finite difference method (FDM). The fabricated DOTs show sufficient nonlinear s-shape I-V characteristics and switching voltage changes of these devices with and without bottom mirrors show 1.82 V and 1.52 V, respectively. Compared to a conventional DOT, this device with the bottom mirrors shows about 20％ and 46% enhancement in switching voltage change and spontaneous emission efficiency, respectively.

($Y_{l-x}$ $Gd_{x}$ )$O_2$$_3$: $Eu^{ 3＋}$ red phosphors were prepared with the solvothermal synthesis using the 2-methoxy-ethanol solvents and the emission intensity was investigated that applied with the 254 nm wavelength and the maximum excitation wavelength for energy source. The used solvents for the solvothermal synthesis were made of nitrate salt solutions of Y, Gd and Eu. These solutions dropped in autoclave have be reacted with the solvothermal synthesis at $200^{\circ}C$ for 5hrs and the red phosphors prepared here in were showed the pure cubic phase after annealing at $1000∼1200^{\circ}C$. The brightness of ($Y_{l-x}$ $Gd_{x}$)$_2$$O_3$: $Eu^{3＋}$ phosphors particles was increased as an increase of Gd ratio. The maximum excitation wavelengths of ($Y_{l-x}$ $Gd_{x}$ )$_2$$O_3$: $Eu^{3＋}$ / phosphors particles were increased according to increasing Gd ratio from 253 nm to 259 nm wavelength. The maximum emission intensity of $Gd_2$$O_3$: $Eu^{3＋}$ (Y/Gd = 1/0) phosphors particles under UV 259 nm was found to be higher than the commercial product of $Y_2$$O_3$: $Eu^{3＋}$ phosphors.

Perylene bisimide derivatives are developed for red organic phosphor because of their advantages, such as excellent luminous efficiency and high thermal stability. Despite these advantages, they have poor solubility characteristics in organic solvents and short emission wavelength as red organic phosphor for hybrid light-emitting diodes (LEDs). In this study, we prepared terrylene bisimide using a coupling reaction and swallow-tail imide group, which has excellent solubility. The structures and properties of swallow-tail terrylene bisimide (9C) were analyzed using ¹H-nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), UV/Vis spectroscopy, and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The maximum absorption wavelength of (9C) in the UV/Vis spectrum was 647 nm, and the maximum emission wavelength was 676 nm. In the TGA, (9C) demonstrated good thermal stability with less than 5 wt% weight loss up to 415℃. In the solubility test, (9C) has a good solubility of more than 5 wt% in chloroform and dichloromethane. When the compounds (9C) were mixed with PMMA (polymethly methacrylate), the films showed peaks at 680 nm in the PL spectra. The results verify the suitability of (9C) as a red organic phosphor for hybrid LEDs.
