Effects of various artificial light sources on the growth of Chinese white cabbage, Chinese flat cabbage, lettuce, garland chrysanthemum, and green perilla were investigated. Plants were grown under different treatments for three weeks. Generally, the growth of artificial light treatment were better than natural daylight(ND). The greatest growth and external quality occurred in high-pressure sodium lamp(HPS). In incandescent lamp(IL), fresh weight was heavy, but marketable quality was poor because of succulent(or spindly) growth. Overall, vitamin C content were no difference among treatments. But relative chlorophyll content was somewhat high in HPS.

As a display becomes large recently, Acquisition of high luminance and Luminance uniformity is becoming difficult in the existing CCFL or EEFL backlight system. So, study for a performance enhancement has enforced. but lamp development of flat type is asked for high luminance and a luminance uniformity security in of LCD and area anger trend ultimately. In this paper, we changed a tip shape of an electrode for production by the most suitable LCD backlight surface light source, and confirmed discharge characteristic along discharge gas pressure and voltage, and confirmed electric field distribution and discharge energy characteristic through a Maxwell 2D simulation. Therefore the discharge firing voltage characteristic showed a low characteristic than a rectangular type and round type in case of electrode which used tip of a triangle type, and displayed a discharge electric current as a same voltage was low.

A lamp which is currently employed to LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) Backlight is almost CCFL(Cold Cathod Fluorescent Lamp) and EEFL(External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp). However, the use of these lamps is being restricted as RoHS(the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment) regulation is gradually reinforced. According to this situation, the manufacturing of a lamp which doesn't use mercury is unescapable. Moreover, LCD TV has a defect which take place Motion Blur phenomenon due to response time of LC(Liquid Crystal), and Hold-type characteristic which only exists in LCD differently to CRT, PDP. In this paper, an inverter is proposed to drive a plane light source lamp which is not containing mercury. Driving circuit of proposed inverter is simple because the number of semiconductor device and magnetic device is reduced by using forward topology. Also, Motion Blur phenomenon is decreased by dividing the plane light source lamp to six block along vertical direction, and scanning. Finally, we proved usefulness of proposed inverter through experiment.

The CN(carbon nitrogen) nanofibers were formed by HIP(high isostatic pressure) process. From the field emission measurement, CN nanofibers shows an excellent characteristics of emitter, better than CNTs and carbon nanofibers. The structures obtained can be divided into three groups : bamboo-like fibers, corrugated structures and bead necklace-like fib res. Emission properties of CN nanofibers were investigated for spacing, between anode and cathode, variation. Turn-on fields was 1.4 v/$\mu\textrm{m}$. The time reliability and light emission test were carried out for about 100 hours. We suggest that CN nanofibers can be possibly applied to the high brightness flat lamp because of low turn-on field and time reliability

In this paper, the frequency characteristics of flat fluorescent lamp(FFL) using ultraviolet generated from gas discharge are studied. The lamp is a simple structure with insulator layer, phosphor layer, and gas gap(1.1mm). The firing voltage and uniform voltage was decreased with increasing the frequency. It was considered that this tendency was resulted from the space charge effect due to Xe and Ar positive ions trapped in gas gap. Luminance in FFL using Xe as discharge gas was shown 2700 cd/$m^2$ in operation (700 Vrms, 80 kHz). Hence, the maximum luminous efficiency was 5 lm/W.

In this thesis we designed the vision system to inspect the defect of a back light unit of plat panel display device. The vision system is divided into hardware and inspection algorithm of defect. Hardware components consist of illumination part, robot-arm controller part and image-acquisition part. Illumination part is made of acrylic panel for light diffusion and five 36W FPL's(Fluorescent Parallel Lamp) and electronic ballast with low frequency harmonics. The CCD(Charge-Coupled Device) camera of image-acquisition part is able to acquire the bright image by the light coming from lamp. The image-acquisition part is composed of CCD camera and frame grabber. The robot-arm controller part has a role to let the CCD camera move to the desired position. To take inspections of surface images of a flat panel display it can be controlled and located every nook and comer. Images obtained by robot-arm and image-acquisition board are saved on the hard-disk through windows programming and are tested whether there are defects by using the image processing algorithms.

We present development of the calibration system for IGRINS (the Immersion GRating Infrared Spectrograph). We mainly use Th-Ar and U hollow cathode lamp as the spectral calibration source and telluric features can be used additionally. For the flat source, we selected a 3000K tungsten halogen lamp with 2 inch integrating sphere. From Light Tools simulation, the result flat image through calibration optics satisfied <1% flatness error requirement. We also present mechanical design of calibration box that will be attached on the IGRINS dewar. Three moving stages are designed to perform switching mechanism between all of the observing modes - target observation, flat, precision RV measurement, and spectro-polarimetric observation.

Recently, Display devices have become important in the information-oriented society and flat display devices are greatly demanded. Liquid crystal display(LCD) represents one of the most promising devices for large size desk-top monitors, notebook PC and car navigation system. However LCD cannot give forth light itself and must have backlight system. The most popular backlighting system is composed of a lighting-guide plate and CCFL as a lighting source. The number of CCFL must increase up if the area of display is increased. So a new backlighting source with high luminance is needed for large LCDs. In this paper, we proposed a surface discharge FFL with the new electrode structure like the needle shaped electrode as the variation of cell structure to high luminance and low power consumption. In comparison with different electrode structure it has low discharge voltage and current and good optical characteristics. So it has better discharge characteristics than different surface discharge FFL and can be fungible for a backlight as a lighting source in LCDs.
