The study carried out in this dissertation focuses on the lens structure design and the light distribution for LED safety luminaires using COB type LED module. Lens structures for LED lights has been designed 1) to induce light diffusion by dual process of internal reflection and refraction, 2) to minimize the inherent LED lights' glittering, and 3) to have uniform brightness. The lens designed with the proposed structures function as diffusers for the divergence of the LED lights so that they form a wide angle of view and adjust the light distribution. We designed of lens with stable uniformity factor and average roughness using aspheric optics property. Finally we made the analysis data of the simulated data.

본 연구는 균일한 조명을 얻기 위해 중첩 조명 모델(overlapped illumination model)을 사용하여 자유 형상 렌즈(freeform lens)를 제작하였으며, 제작한 LED 렌즈들의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 제작한 렌즈는 LED 광원의 위치변화, 두께 및 기울임을 이용해 성능을 평가하였다. 아울러 조명영역은 평균 조도 (average illuminance)와 조도 균일도 (illuminance uniformity) 변화 값으로 측정하였다. 광도 분포의 Z축 방향변화에 대해서는 중첩 모델과 발산 모델이 대체로 비슷한 공차 특성을 보였으나, 렌즈두께 변화에 대해서는 중첩모델이 발산모델에 비해 조도 균일도 공차 특성은 현저히 개선됨을 확인하였다. 또한, 발산 조명 모델로 설계된 렌즈가 전반적으로 좋은 성능을 나타냈으나, LED 방출에 대한 성능은 중첩 모델에서 그 편차의 폭이 상대적으로 적게 나타났다.

Recently an optical diffusion of LED lamps has been studied actively. In this paper, the second lens applied to a cover of the LED lamp was analytically designed to having a wide angle distribution of light without diffuser characteristic by dispersing agent. In this process, We found a major factors that can help improve the performance of the lens. It is the refractive power of the lens, the Mie particle density of phosphor, and the arrangement of the LED. Through the final simulation, we can see the LED lamp is possible to get wide angle light distribution by proper source modeling and second lens designing. Also, we can see this simulated results are entirely consistent with measured data for light distribution. In this research, we present the shape of the second lens with wide angle distribution and derive the important factors for the second lens design.

본 연구는 균일한 조명을 얻기 위해 자유 형상 렌즈(freeform lens)를 제작하였으며, 이를 위해 중첩 조명 모델(overlapped illumination model)을 제안하였고, 제작한 LED 렌즈들의 특성을 분석하였다. 제작한 렌즈는 LED 빛 세기 분포의 중심 방향, 반치각 (half angle) 및 LED 광원의 위치변화를 바탕으로 그 성능을 평가하였다. 아울러 조명영역은 평균 조도 (average illuminance)와 조도 균일도 (illuminance uniformity) 변화 값으로 수행하였다. 광도 분포의 중심 방향 변화에 대해서는 제안된 모델과 발산 모델이 대체로 비슷한 공차 특성을 보였으며, 특히 제작한 렌즈에서 반치각 변화는 기존 방법에 비해 조도 균일도 공차 특성은 현저히 개선됨을 확인하였다.

A direct-lit liquid crystal display that does not use color filters is proposed. A backlight unit that employs compartmentalized RGB LED and lenticular-lens arrays is used instead of color filters to direct the RGB LED lights into the RGB subpixels. The color-filterless LED backlight design, simulation, and experiment results are presented.

Recently, Light Emitting Diode(LED) has many advantages in comparison with conventional light sources; low power consumption, long lifetime, and less environmental pollution. Therefore, the use of LED is multiplying and increasing rapidly. In general, however, spherical lens is used in LED-lighting which cause many problems induces by optical aberration of spherical lens; low illumination, a yellow belt, unpleasant feeling in human eye. As a potential solution of this problem, aspherical lens can be employed. This study reports the improvement of LED-lighting performance by adopting aspherical lens. From the commercial program, $LightTools^{TM}$, the optical problem were ensured. And then, to improve this problem, optimum aspheric form was designed using Code $V^{TM}$.

It is necessary to develop an LED traffic light lens having a snow removal function capable of clearly providing a traffic signal to the driver even when a traffic light is blurred due to heavy snow and wind in the winter season. This study is focused on the research and development of the traffic light lens in the process of developing the LED traffic light with the snow removal function. In the developed traffic light lens, instead of attaching the film heater, the coated nichrome wire was wound into a coil shape and inserted directly into the groove in the lens. The developed heater system facilitates the insertion of the heating wire with high elasticity into a curved lens and can provide a sufficient heat without deformation of the PC lens. The proposed traffic lights were tested in various external environments and the test results showed that complete snow removal is possible without tunnel effect.

In this paper, we propose the optical system design for a medium sized LED marine lanterns which simplifies the multi-layer structure into a single structure. In order to satisfy the target fixed intensity(35,000cd) and vertical divergence($-2.5^{\circ}{\sim}-4.0^{\circ}$, $+2.5^{\circ}{\sim}+4.0^{\circ}$), we use the total internal reflection collimator lens. And a Monte Carlo simulation has been utilized to optimize a condition of a LED package, TIR lens and outside lens. The computer simulation results indicated that this LED marine lanterns can produce of a fixed intensity(35,382cd) and vertical divergence($-3.1^{\circ}{\sim}+2.5^{\circ}$). Using the this optical system, we achieve the target value of LED lanterns.
