This paper deals with the solar tracking performance using a small heliostat, the light reduction rate of the sun light, and the performance of uniform irradiation of LED light for a plant factory. A high precision encoder is attached to the heliostat to improve tracking accuracy. As a result, our heliostat-based solar tracking systems track efficiently the movement of the sun light in experimental tests. The reduction rate of the sun light in the plant factory is then measured by using an illumination sensor. The average reduction rate is 4.29%, which represents lower light reduction rates. In uniform irradiation tests of LED light, sixteen points are measured, and overall deviations of irradiation were within eight percents.

In order to study for the growth of fish in the aquaculture industry, the behavior analysis of rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus) depending on the temperature and LED lights was conducted. In this study, water temperatures from 10 to 30 degrees were used. One red light (wave length: 622 nm; light power: 811 mW) and one green light (wave length: 518 nm; light power: 648 mW) were used. Behavior of the rock bream was analyzed at an average moving distance for one minutes (AMD) and a rate of movement. The mean AMD were respectively 5.3 m, 7.3 m and 3.0 m in the red LED light, green LED light and control condition. The mean rates of movement were 77%, 88% and 61% respectively in the red LED light, green LED light and control condition. The mean AMD during 24 hours were 3.1 m, 3.1 m and 3.3 m respectively in the red LED light, green LED light and control condition.

In this paper, an illumination optical system that can mitigate the saturation phenomenon in the center of an image (caused by the typical flexible-endoscope illumination system using LEDs with Lambertian light distribution) is designed. When an LED with Lambertian light distribution is used as a light source, the amount of light in the center of the endoscopic illumination system is relatively high, compared to the periphery, causing saturation in the image. Since this phenomenon causes difficulty in detecting the patient's lesion, it is necessary to find a lighting-system design that can alleviate the saturation phenomenon. Therefore, in this paper a lighting system with bat-wing light distribution, which can lower the intensity at the center and secure the maximum amount of light at the maximum light distribution angle, is designed. In addition, to check the performance of the designed lighting system, a simulation of illumination and luminance is conducted for a system using a common aspherical lens with otherwise the same components. As a result, it is confirmed that the lighting system designed in this paper effectively reduces the luminance value at the center and secures more luminance values at the periphery than the familiar lighting system.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of exposure time on the polymerization of surface and 2 mm below the surface of light-cured restorative materials cured with three different light sources; conventional halogen light curing unit(XL 3000, 3M, U.S.A.), plasma arc light curing unit(Flipo, LOKKI, France) and light emitting diode(LED) light curing unit(Elipar Free light, 3M, U.S.A.) and compare the uniformity of polymerization from the center to the periphery of resin surfaces according to polymerization diameter cure with three different light sources. From the experiment, the following results were obtained. 1. In Z-100, Plasma arc light exposure time of 6 to 9 seconds and LED light exposure time of 40 to 60 seconds produced microhardness values similar to those produced with 40 second exposure to a conventional halogen light(p>0.05). 2. In Tetric Flow, Plasma arc light exposure time of 9 seconds and LED light exposure time of 40 to 60 seconds produced microhardness values similar to those produced with 40 second exposure to a conventional halogen light(p>0.05). 3. In Dyract AP, Plasma arc light exposure time of 6 to 9 seconds and LED light exposure time of 20 to 40 seconds produced microhardness values similar to those produced with 40second exposure to a conventional halogen light(p>0.05). 4. In Fuji II LC, Plasma arc light exposure time of 9 seconds and LED light exposure time of 20 to 60 seconds produced microhardness values similar to those produced with 40second exposure to a conventional halogen light(p>0.05). 5. Except Fuji II LC, microhardness was decreased from the center to the periphery in all light sources(p<0.05).

Light penetration depth in high-density Chlorella cultures can be successfully estimated by Beer-Lambert's law. The efficiency of light energy absorption algal cultures was so high that algal cells near the illuminating surface shade the cells deep in the culture. To exploit the potential of high-density algal cultures, this mutual shading should be eliminated or minimized. However, providing more light energy will not ease the situation and it will simply drop the overall light utilization efficiency.

As the characteristics of LED disposition, LED warning light must be designed differently from general incandescent lamp warning light whose light source is located in origin. In this paper, the globe's lens of LED warning light was designed considering the LED intensity distribution and the arrangement of the LED. And prove the appropriateness of that design by simulation in LightTools which is optical design program.

We present 2D slab silicon-based photonic crystal optical insulator to enhance light emission efficiency of light-emitting diode (LED). A 2D slab silicon photonic crystal is designed in such a way that light emitting diode die can be placed in the middle of the silicon photonic crystal. The device creates light propagation forbidden region in horizontal plane for Transverse Electric (TE) light with the wavelength range of 450 nm to 600 nm.

We studied the chloroplast rearrangement, short-term regulation depending on the light conditions in plants, and the characteristic of photosynthic rate as affected by in Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. The chloroplast rearrangement of ginseng mesophyll cell was induced with the irradiation of blue light (400~500 nm) and through this process the rate of leaf transmittance increased 5~7.5%. The time to reach the maximum value of photosynthesis was shorter above 20 minutes with the blue light irradiation than that of the red light.
