This paper introduces a preliminary work for the design of a mini-dish cluster system for power general ion. Each mini-dish (typically has a 20 to 30cm in diameter) is designed with a simple parabolic profile, concentrating sun light (after the glass glazing cover to avoid dust deposition on the reflector and facilitate cleaning) onto a centrally located small plane(or concave) mirror which is placed on the bottom side of the transparent glass cover. The mirror with a mini-dish concentrator is designed to focus beam radiation onto a focal point before it enters a bundle of optical fibers connected to a remote receiver for power generation different options are considered In designing a mini-dish concentrator to maximize its effectiveness for the collection and use of solar energy.

Optical-fiber sensors have been developed to determine the concentrations of glucose and lactic acid in blood samples. Fluorescence dye [tris(2,2'-biphenyridine)-ruthenium(II)-chloride (RuBPY)] was entrapped by using a silicon to the unclad tip of a glass optic fiber. Enzymes like glucose oxidase (GOD) and lactate oxidase (LOD) have been immobilized by acrylamide resin adhesive, adsorption with zeolite or covalent bonding with aminopropyl-triethoxysilan. The fiber-optic glucose/lactate sensor was then used to analyze the concentrations of glucose and lactate in blood samples. The results were compared with the results of HPLC analysis and their difference was in error by less then 5 %.

In this study, glass fibers are fabricated via a continuous spinning process using manganese slag, steel slag, and silica stone. To fabricate the glass fibers, raw materials are put into an alumina crucible, melted at $1550^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs, and then annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. We obtain a black colored glass. We identify the non-crystalline nature of the glass using an XRD(x-ray diffractometer) graph. An adaptable temperature for spinning of the bulk marble glass is characterized using a high temperature viscometer. Spinning is carried out using direct melting spinning equipment as a function of the fiberizing temperature in the range of $1109^{\circ}C$ to $1166^{\circ}C$, while the winder speed is in the range of 100rpm to 250rpm. We investigate the various properties of glass fibers. The average diameters of the glass fibers are measured by optical microscope and FE-SEM. The average diameter of the glass fibers is $73{\mu}m$ at 100rpm, $65{\mu}m$ at 150rpm, $55{\mu}m$ at 200rpm, and $45{\mu}m$ at 250rpm. The mechanical properties of the fibers are confirmed using a UTM(Universal materials testing machine). The average tensile strength of the glass fibers is 21MPa at 100rpm, 31MPa at 150rpm, 34MPa at 200rpm, and 45MPa at 250rpm.

The fabrication process of thin boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond (B-NCD) microelectrodes on fused silica single mode optical fiber cladding has been investigated. The B-NCD films were deposited on the fibers using Microwave Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (MW PA CVD) at glass substrate temperature of 475 ℃. We have obtained homogenous, continuous and polycrystalline surface morphology with high sp³ content in B-NCD films and mean grain size in the range of 100-250 nm. The films deposited on the glass reference samples exhibit high refractive index (n=2.05 at λ=550 nm) and low extinction coefficient. Furthermore, cyclic voltammograms (CV) were recorded to determine the electrochemical window and reaction reversibility at the B-NCD fiber-based electrode. CV measurements in aqueous media consisting of 5 mM K₃[Fe(CN)₆] in 0.5 M Na₂SO₄ demonstrated a width of the electrochemical window up to 1.03 V and relatively fast kinetics expressed by a redox peak splitting below 500 mV. Moreover, thanks to high-n B-NCD overlay, the coated fibers can be also used for enhancing the sensitivity of long-period gratings (LPGs) induced in the fiber. The LPG is capable of measuring variations in refractive index of the surrounding liquid by tracing the shift in resonance appearing in the transmitted spectrum. Possible combined CV and LPG-based measurements are discussed in this work.

With the increasing use of smart electronic devices, the size of the related I/O interface market is increasing rapidly. Demand is also growing for the continuous increase of data and video signals-such as faster data processing speed and data storage capacity-in the smart electronic device input/output interface market. Currently, the POF hybrid cable used in the smart electronic device input / output interface market cannot transmit over a long distance because the optical loss is too large, and the GOF hybrid cable is both vulnerable to bending and other sudden outside changes, and expensive. Therefore, in this study, the design and fabrication of a GOF hybrid cable and fiber guide were carried out in order to develop a cable which can easily withstand external impact, has low optical losses, and meets the demand for continuous data and video signal increase in the smart electronic device input / output interface market.

Recently, fiber optic hydrophone is a subject which has attracted as a underwater acoustic sensor. In this paper, a length of optical fiber is bonded to an end-capped hollow cylinder of some elastic material, e. g. aluminum and glass-pyres. The normalized sensitivity is derived according to the direction of polarization. Derived sensitivity equations are simulated for two different mandrel materials. The results are also compared to the McMahon's results which calculated for an average Pockel coefficient. Based on the numerical simulation normalized sensitivity is propotional to the inner to outer diameter ratio.

The possibility of application or the transparent BK10 glass fiber/PMMA composites as a temperature-or wavelength-sensors was studied. Measurement of diameter and refractive index for glass fibers to be reinforced to PMMA as a function of drawing speed and temperature was done and the appropriate coating methods and solvent for coupling agent was researched. $T_{max%}$ value at which the maximum transmission for the composites occurs could be controlled to be in $31~50^{\circ}C$ by the processing factors such as fiber diameter, fiber vol%, molecular wt. of PMMA. Furthermore, with different wavelength other than 589.3 nm, the $T_{max%}$ value could be controlled to be in $35~55^{\circ}C$. For the sensibility of wavelength for the composites, there was not a wavelength ($\lamda_{max%}$) showing maximum transmission.

If a research trend present in and outside the country is often seen, the structure measurement method of having used PZT and the optical fiber (FBG) will be the actual condition which has accomplished the stock. In order to manage such cracks, time, efforts and expense are required. Such a method has many difficulties in application of a structure by the difficult problem of the measurement range, and the expensive sensor price. Progressive cracks were generated by fracture of glass pipe sensor. Moreover, the experiment which can detect damage propriety by external Light Emitting Diode by damaging a glass pipe by load change with the application of switch using strain gage of a glass pipe was conducted.

Cordierite glass ceramic has become an electronic substrate material for electronic circuits and the use of whiskers for improving strength and toughness is evident. Green sheets of mixtures containing 15% silicon nitride were sintered to greater than 99 % density. The microstructure was analysed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The toughness and hardness were improved with increasing the whisker vol. % and sintering temperature. Especially, it is assumed that toughening increasing at the more high sintering temperature relevants to the glass phase increasing, as showned in the roughness of the fracture surfaces. It was directionally dependent of whisker direction during processing.
