Photobiomodulation (PBM) 치료법은 특정 파장대역의 광원이 미토콘드리아에서 ATP 생성을 촉진하는 현상을 이용하는 치료법으로서 상처 치유, 염증 감소, 통증 완화 효과가 있는 것으로 알려져 생물 및 의학 분야에서 많은 관심을 받고 있다. PBM 치료법에 대한 연구는 주로 레이저, 발광다이오드(LED)를 광원으로 사용하였고, 유기발광다이오드(OLED)가 가지는 장점에도 불구하고 PBM 치료법에 사용된 사례는 제한적이다. 본 연구에서는 적색(λ = 620 nm), 녹색(λ = 525 nm), 청색(λ = 455 nm) OLED 조명모듈을 사용하여 PBM에 의한 피부관리 효과를 분석하고 LED에 의한 PBM 효과와 비교하였다. OLED 조명모듈의 PBM에 의한 피부미용효과는 적색 OLED 조명모듈에 의한 collagen type 1 합성량 증가, 녹색 OLED 조명모듈에 의한 melanin 합성 억제, 청색 OLED 조명모듈에 의한 nitric oxide 생성 억제를 각각 측정하여 입증되었다.

고상 반응법을 이용하여 처음으로 $Li_2SrSiO_{4-{\alpha}}N_{\alpha}:Eu^{2+}$ 형광체를 제조하고, 제조된 시료들에 대한 결정성 및 광학적 특성을 비교, 분석하였다. 제조된 시료들은 모두 230~530 nm의 넓은 영역에서 효율적인 여기 특성을 보이고 있다. 본 연구에 사용된 시료들 모두 568 nm에서 최대 발광 세기를 보이는데 이는 현재 상용 중인 $YAG:Ce^{3+}$에 비하여 최대 발광 세기가 약 18 nm 장파장 영역으로 이동함을 의미한다. 따라서 450 nm의 빛을 발하는 청색 LED와 결합하면, $YAG:Ce^{3+}$를 사용하여 상용화된 기존의 백색광보다 보다 따듯한 느낌의 백색광원용 형광체로 활용될 수 있으리라 판단한다. 또한 질소의 원료 물질로 사용된 $Si_3N_4$의 분말크기가 마이크론인 경우에 광활성 이온인 $Eu^{2+}$가 첨가되지 않아도 모체발광이 일어난다는 것을 처음으로 알게 되었다.

정맥주사는 환자의 치료를 위해 주사 약물, 수액, 비경구 영양, 혈액제제의 투입 등에 광법위하게 이용되고 있으며 입원 환자에게 가장 빈번하게 행해지는 침습적 처치로서, 채혈, 말초 카테터 삽입 및 기타 IV요법 등에 해당하며 연간 10억건 이상 발생하고 있다. 정맥주사는 정맥주사 교육을 받은 숙련된 간호사들에 의해서만 시술되는 어려운 시술 중에 하나이며 실패 시 정맥에 혈전증 및 혈종이나 신경손상 등을 초래할 수 있다. 정맥주사를 자주 시술하는 간호사들도 비만, 피부색, 나이 등의 요인으로 정맥 검출이 쉽지 않아 실수들이 발생하는 경우도 있다. 이에 정맥주사 시 실수를 줄이기 위해 손등이나 팔의 정맥 구조를 시각화할 수 있는 보조 장비들에 대한 연구들이 발표되고 있다. 본 논문은 정맥주사 시 정맥의 구조를 시각화하는 정맥검출 장비 개발에 관한 연구에 대한 내용으로서, 정맥검출을 위한 실험 모듈을 제작하고 각기 다른 파장대를 지닌 NIR(근적외선) LED와 Filter의 파장대 조합에 따른 획득 영상의 밝기 비교를 통해 최적의 조합을 선정하는 연구를 진행했다. 또한 구현한 정맥검출 실험 모듈을 통해 획득한 정맥 영상의 선명화를 위해 그레이스케일 변환, 히스토그램 평활화, 샤프닝 필터 적용하고 이진화 이후 마킹을 통해 혈관 부분을 녹색으로 변환하는 영상처리 알고리즘을 도출하였다.

The GMT-Consortium Large Earth Finder(G-CLEF) is one of the first light instruments at the Giant Magellan Telescope. The international consortium consists of five astronomical institutes including the Center for Astrophysics, the Observatories of Carnegie Institute, the University of Catolica in Chile, the University of Chicago, and Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute, led by CfA. The extremely precise radial velocity capability is one of the principal instrumental feature of G-CLEF. The RV goal is 10 cm/s capable of detecting an Earth-like planet around a Sun-like host star. This high precision wavelength calibration stability requires a set of significantly tight optomechanical tolerances in the mechanical design of the Flexure Control Camera system. KASI is in charge of the Flexure Control Camera and the Calibration Light System for the G-CLEF spectrograph. In this presentation, we introduce the preliminary design and analysis results of the G-CLEF Flexure Control Camera.

$Ce^{4+}$, $Eu^{3+}$, $Tb^{3+}$ co-doped $Ca_3Si_3O_8F_2$ phosphor was synthesized via solid state reaction method using $CaF_2$, $CaCO_3$ and $SiO_2$ as raw materials for the host and $Eu_2O_3$, $CeO_2$, and $Tb_4O_7$ as activators. The luminescent properties of the phosphor was analysed by spectrofluorophotometer at room temperature. The effect of excitation wavelengths on the luminescent properties of the phosphor i.e. under near-ultraviolet (nUV) and visible excitations was investigated. The emission peaks of $Ce^{4+}$, $Eu^{3+}$, $Tb^{3+}$ co-doped $Ca_3Si_3O_8F_2$ phosphor lays at 480(blue band), 550(green band) and 611nm (red band) under 380nm excitation wavelength, attributed to the $Ce^{4+}$ ion, $Tb^{3+}$ ion and $Eu^{3+}$ ions respectively. The results reveal that the phosphor emits white light upon nUV (380nm) / visible (465nm) illumination, and a red light upon 395nm / 535nm illumination. RE ions doped $Ca_3Si_3O_8F_2$ is a promising white light phosphor for LEDs. The emission colours can be seen using Commission international de l'eclairage (CIE) co-ordinates. A single host phosphor emitting different colours under different excitations indicates that it is a potential phosphor having applications in many fields.

Transparent Sn-doped $In_2O_3$ (ITO) single-layer and ITO/Au/ITO multilayer films were deposited on glass substrates by reactive magnetron sputtering to compare the properties of the films. They were then annealed in a vacuum of $1{\times}10^{-2}\;Pa$ at temperatures ranging from 150 to $450^{\circ}C$ for 20 min to determine the effect of the annealing temperature on the properties of the films. As-deposited 100 nm thick ITO films exhibit a sheet resistance of $130{\Omega}/{\square}$ and optical transmittance of 77% at a wavelength length of 550 nm. By inserting a 5 nm-thick Au layer in ITO/metal/ITO (IMI) films, the sheet resistance was decreased to as low as $20{\Omega}/{\square}$ and the optical transmittance was decreased to as little as 73% at 550 nm. Post-deposition annealing of ITO/Au/ITO films led to considerably lower electrical resistivity and higher optical transparency. In the Xray diffraction pattern, as-deposited ITO films did not show any diffraction peak, whereas as-deposited ITO/ Au/ITO films have Au (222) and $In_2O_3$ (110) crystal planes. When the annealing temperature reached the 150 - $450^{\circ}C$ range, the both diffraction peak intensities increased significantly. A sheet resistance of $8{\Omega}/{\square}$ and an optical transmittance of 82% were obtained from the ITO/Au/ITO films annealed at $450^{\circ}C$.

Influence of Ag nanoparticles on optical and photovoltaic properties of, silicon substrates, silicon solar cells and glass have been investigated. Silver nanoparticles have been fabricated by evaporation of thin Ag layers followed by the thermal annealing. The surface plasmon resonance peak was observed in the absorbance spectrum at 470 nm of glass with deposited silver nanoparticles. It is demonstrated that deposition of silver nanoparticles on silicon substrates was accompanied with a significant decrease in reflectance at the wavelength 360-1100 nm and increase of the absorption at wavelengths close to the band gap for Si substrates. We studied influence of Ag nanoparticles on photovoltaic characteristics of silicon solar cells without and with common use antireflection coating (ARC). It is shown that silver nanoparticles deposited onto the front surface of the solar cells without ARC led to increase in the photocurrent density by 39% comparing to cells without Ag nanoparticles. Contrary to this, solar cells with Ag nanoparticles deposited on front surface with ARC discovered decrease in photocurrent density. The improved performance of investigated cells was attributed to Ag-plasmonic excitations that reduce the reflectance from the silicon surface and ultimately leads to the enhanced light absorption in the cell. This study showed possibility of application of Ag nanoparticles for the improvement of the conversion efficiency of waferbased silicon solar cells instead of usual ARC.

ZnO, ZnO: Cu, Ga, and ZnO: Cu, Ga, Ag thin films were obtained by oxidization of ZnS and ZnS: Cu, Ga films deposited onto glass substrates by electron-beam evaporation from ZnS and ZnS: Cu, Ga targets and from ZnS: Cu, Ga film additionally doped with Ag by the closed space sublimation technique at atmospheric pressure. The film thickness was about $1{\mu}m$. The oxidation was carried out at $600-650^{\circ}C$ in air or in an atmosphere containing water vapor. Structural characteristics were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the films were measured at 30-300 K using the excitation wavelengths of 337, 405 and 457.9 nm. As-deposited ZnS and ZnS: Cu, Ga films had cubic structure. The oxidation of the doped films in air or in water vapors led to complete ZnO phase transition. XRD and AFM studies showed that the grain sizes of oxidized films at wet annealing were larger than of the films after dry annealing. As-deposited doped and undoped ZnS thin films did not emit PL. Shape and intensity of the PL emission depended on doping and oxidation conditions. Emission intensity of the films annealed in water vapors was higher than of the films annealed in the air. PL of ZnO: Cu, Ga films excited by 337 nm wavelength exhibits UV (380 nm) and green emission (500 nm). PL spectra at 300 and 30 K excited by 457.9 and 405 nm wavelengths consisted of two bands - the green band at 500 nm and the red band at 650 nm. Location and intensities ratio depended on the preparation conditions.

A zirconia gel/polymer hybrid nanofiber was produced in a nonwoven fabric mode by electrospinning a sol derived from hydrolysis of zirconium butoxide with a polyvinyl butyral. Results indicated that the hydroxyl groups on the vinyl alcohol units in the backbone of the polymer were involved in the hydrolysis as well as grafting the hydrolyzed zirconium butoxide. In addition, use of acetic acid as a catalyst resulted in further hydrolysis and condensation in the sol, which led to the growth of -Zr-O-Zr- networks among the polymer chains. These networks gradually transformed into a crystalline zirconia structure upon heating. The as-spun fiber was smooth but partially wrinkled on the surface. The average fiber diameter was $690{\pm}110\;nm$. The fiber exhibited a strong but broad blue photoluminescence with its maximum intensity at a wavelength of ~410 nm at room temperature. When the fiber was heat-treated at $400^{\circ}C$, the fiber diameter shrunk to $250{\pm}60\;nm$. Nanocrystals which belonged to a tetragonal zirconia phase and were ~5 nm in size appeared. A strong white photoluminescence was observed in this fiber. This suggests that oxygen or carbon defects associated with the formation of the nanocrystals play a role in generating the photoluminescence. Further heating to $800^{\circ}C$ resulted in a monoclinic phase beginning to form In the heat-treated fibers, coloring occurred but varied depending on the heating temperature. Crystallization, coloring, and phase transition to the monoclinic structure influenced the photoluminescence. At $600^{\circ}C$, the fiber appeared to be fully crystallized to a tetragonal zirconia phase.
