The functional materials have been developed as a promising research topic toward the end uses for organic materials and applications. In this study, fluorescein based dye was synthesized by three step reaction. We have designed and synthesized the colorimetric dye through the reactions of fluorescein and methoxy group and ethylene diamine and squaric acid. The structure of the non-fluorescent spirolactam was elucidated by $^1H$-NMR, LC-Mass and FT-IR analyzes. Further studies are in progress to understand the effects of various substituent during the recognition process and to develop fluorescein based sensors for cations or anions.

Through sol-gel process, inorganic/organic composite as a dye host was made. It was observed that this composite has about 90% of trnasmittance by UV/VIS spectrophotometer. The transmittance is the most important requirement to decide whether the composite could apply or not as the dye host. The transmittance was increased with decreasing HCl as a catalyst, aging time, and amount of PDMS. Also, fluorescent and transmittant charateristics of Rhodamine 6G Perchlorate that was doped into ORMOSIL were measured. The fluorescent intensity was increased and the trnasmittance was decreased with rising gelling temperature.

The effect of doping on the energy transfer and charge carrier trapping processes has been studied in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) doped with a fluorescent laser dye. The devices consisted of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transporting layer, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum ($Alq_3$) as the host, and a fluorescent dye, 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-[2-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1 H,5H-benzo[i,j]quinolizin-8-yl) vinyl]-4H-pyran) (DCM2) as the dopant. Temperature dependence of the current-voltage-luminescence (I-V-L) characteristics, the electroluminescence (EL) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra are studied in the temperature ranging between 15 K and 300 K. The emission from DCM2 was seen to be much stronger compared with the emission from $Alq_3$, indicative of efficient energy transfer from $Alq_3$ to DCM2. In addition, the EL emission from DCM2 increasd with increasing temperature while the emission from the host $Alq_3$ decreased. The result indicates that direct charge carrier trapping becomes efficient with increasing temperature. The EL emission from DCM2 shows a slightly sublinear dependence on the current density, implying the enhanced quenching of excitons at high current densities due to the exciton-exciton annihilation.

In this work the optical fiber glucose and lactate biosensors were developed by using fluorescent dye and enzyme immobilized on the end tip of an optical fiber. 3-Glycidyloxypropyl)methyldiethoxysilane (GPTMS), (3-Aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTMS) and Methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) were used to immobilize glucose oxidase (GOD), lactate oxidase (LOD) and ruthenium(II) complex (tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) ruthenium(II), $Ru(dpp)_3^{2+}$) as oxygen sensitive fluorescent dye. MTMS sol-gel was an excellent supporting material for the immobilization of $Ru(dpp)_3^{2+}$, GOD, and LOD on the optical fiber. Storage stability of the optical fiber glucose sensor was kept constant over 20 days, while the optical fiber lactate sensor had constant storage stability over 17 days. The optical fiber glucose and lactate biosensors also maintained good operational stability for 20 hours and 14 hours, respectively. The activities of the immobilized enzymes were most excellent at pH 7 and at $25^{\circ}C$. On-line monitoring of glucose and lactate in a simulated process was performed with the optical fiber glucose and lactate biosensors. On-line monitoring results were agreed with those of off-line data measured with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Fluorescence imaging is considered as one of the most powerful techniques for monitoring biomolecule activities in living systems. Near-infrared (NIR) light is advantageous for minimum photodamage, deep tissue penetration, and minimum background autofluorescence interference. Herein, we have developed a new NIR fluorescent dye, namely, RB-1, based on the Rhodamine B scaffold. RB-1 exhibits excellent photophysical properties including large absorption extinction coefficients, high fluorescence quantum yields, and high photostability. In particular, RB-1 displays both absorption and emission in the NIR region of the "biological window" (650-900 nm) for imaging in biological samples. RB-1 shows absorption maximum at 614 nm (500-725 nm) and emission maximum at 712 nm (650-825 nm) in ethanol, which is superior to those of traditional rhodamine B in the selected spectral region. Furthermore, applications of RB-1 for fluorescence imaging in living cells and small animals were investigated using confocal fluorescence microscopy and in vivo imaging system with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR = 10.1).

In this study, I investigated the applicability of fluorescein-derived xanthene dyes to fluorescent pigment and the controllability of the optical properties of manufactured pigments. Eosin Y (D&C Red No.22) and phloxine B (D&C Red No.28) were mainly used as a dye to prepare the pigment. Dyes dissolved in a solvent were poured into a powder dispersed in the solvent, then dried and pulverized to fabricate the pigments. Optical characteristics related with fluorescence of the prepared pigment were measured. The optical properties of pigments were varied depending on the solvent used, content of the dye in the pigment, and the ratio of dyes when more then two dyes were mixed. According to the experiment result, it seems that some of the dyes attached to the powder showed fluorescence while the rest did not contribute to it. From the result of pigment washing experiment to explore the binding (or interaction) strength and characteristics of the powder-dye system constituting the pigment, it seems that there are two or more different interactions existing in the pigment system, one of which is relatively stronger than the solvent-dye interaction.

Magnetic fluorescent silica nanotubes were fabricated using reverse micro-emulsions coupled with conventional sol-gel methods. Anodic aluminum oxide templates were used to separate spatially the magnetic and the fluorescent moieties on individual nanotubes and so prevent quenching of the fluorescence. C18 and fluorescent layers were deposited sequentially on silica. Magnetism was then obtained by the introduction of pre-made magnetic nanoparticles inside the nanotubes. The photo- and chemical stabilities of nanotubes were demonstrated through dye release and photobleaching tests. The produced nanotubes did not show fluorescence quenching upon the addition of the nanoparticles, an advantage over conventional spherical fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles. High photostability of nanotubes, magnetism and biocompatiblily make them potentially useful in bioanalysis.

Organic dye-doped silica nanoparticles are used as a promising nanomaterials for bio-labeling, bio-imaging and bio-sensing. Fluorescent silica nanoparticles(NPs) have been synthesized by the modified $St{\ddot{o}}ber$ method. In this study, dye-free fluorescent silica NPs of various sized were synthesized by Sol-Gel process as the modified $St{\ddot{o}}ber$ method. The functional material of APTES((3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane) was added as an additive during the Sol-Gel process. The as-synthesized silica NPs were calcined at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The surface morphology and particle size of the as-synthesized silica NPs were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The fluorescent characteristics of the as-synthesized silica NPs was confirmed by UV lamp irradiation of 365 nm wavelength. The photoluminescence (PL) of the as-synthesized silica NPs with different size was analyzed by fluorometry. As the results, the as-synthesized silica NPs exhibits same blue fluorescent characteristics for different NPs size. Especially, as increased of the silica NPs size, the intensity of PL was decreased. The blue fluorescence of dye-free silica NPs was attributed to linkage of $NH_2$ groups of the APTES layer and oxygen-related defects in the silica matrix skeleton.

This work reports on three primary color fluorescent white organic light emitting diode (WOLED) with simple device structure where only a part of the hole transporting layer was doped with dye. The maximum luminance of the device reaches $35000\;cd/m^2$ at a drive voltage below 11V and external quantum efficiency of the device is above 1% in the wide range of luminance from 10 to $35000\;cd/m^2$ and reaches its highest 1.6% at $500\;cd/m^2$. The chromaticity coordinate shift of the device is negligible in this wide range of luminance. The blue shift of emission color with an increase of current density was attributed to the narrowing of recombination zone width with raise of current density.
