The hetero-epitaxial growth of AmB v type onto-electronic material is attempted by means of the laser-induced chemical vapour deposition technique. The bimolecular gas phase reaction of trimethylgallium with ammonia on (001) alumina substrate for the epitaxy of gallium nitride is chosen as a model system. In this study, ArF exciter laser (193nm) is employed as a photon source. Marked difference is found in nucleation and in subsequent crystal incorporation between the doposits formed with and without the laser-irradiation. The surface coverage with isomorphically grown drystallites is pronounced upon "volume-excited" irradiation in comparison with the conventional thermal process. As to the crystal structure of the grown layers, the laser-induced deposits of GaN may be represented by either of the following two models: (001) plane of sapphire //y (001) plane of wurtzite-type GaN, OR (001) plane of sapphire//(001) plane of wurtzite-type-GaN (111) plane of twinned zinc blende-type GaN.

Since the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is increasing due to regular cervical cancer screening, there is a high demand for simpler tools to diagnose and treat CIN in the clinic. In this study, we proposed an electric property of cervical tissue to verify treatment using a laser. At first, we observed the depth and width of ablated cervical tissues for 29 samples according to four different pulse energy of the fractional CO₂ laser to find enough pulse energy to reach the basement layer for initiated CIN. And then, the relative frequency differences in impedance spectrum before and after laser irradiation for ten non-CIN samples were collected using bioimpedance spectroscopy with a multi-electrode probe. As a result, the laser ablated the cervical tissues with a depth of more than 300 ㎛ at 100 mJ pulse energy. Also, we confirmed that the relative changes of electrical property for cervical tissue increased as the pulse energy of laser output increased, and the variation between samples decreased. Since the relative change in electrical properties of cervical tissue can be easily and quickly measured, the proposed technique paves the way for further verification and follow-up study of laser treatment for CIN.

We developed a new laser irradiation (BLDA: Blue Multi-Laser-Diode Annealing) system. The system forms the uniform line beam, which is constructed by 48 pieces of semiconductor lasers. This new system has achieved high laser output stability and the highly accurate beam shape by adopting a reliable laser control, the auto-focus control in addition to an original laser photosynthesis technology and the beam homogenizing technology. It was confirmed to crystallize the Si films effectively with good quality.

A fundamental study on laser-tissue interaction was conducted with the aim of developing a therapeutic medical device that can remove lesions on the intestinal wall by irradiating a high-power 808-nm infrared laser light incorporated in an endoscopic system. The perforation depth was linearly increased in the range of 1~4 mm in proportional to laser output (3~12 W) and irradiation time (5~20 s). We demonstrated that the perforation depth during laser irradiation was varied according to the tissue property of each extracted porcine organ. The measurement of the temperature distribution suggests that the energy is localized in the irradiation spot and transferred to deep tissue, which protects the surrounding tissue from thermal injury. These results can be used to set the driving parameters for a laser incision technique as an alternative to conventional surgical interventions.

To investigate the aging-related physiological functions of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), we examined mRNA expression changes in aging-related genes due to oxidative stress inhibition by 630-nm red light OLEDs. As a result of irradiating 630-nm OLED with an intensity of 5 mW/cm² for 15 min, the viability of dermal fibroblasts significantly increased by 1.3-fold. In addition, reactive oxygen species generated by H₂O₂ were significantly reduced about 4.9-fold by irradiation with 630-nm OLED. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction results showed that 630-nm OLEDs altered aging-related gene mRNA expression levels through antioxidant activity. The mRNA expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase1 (MMP1) and MMP9 decreased significantly, by about 2.2- and 2.5-fold, compared to the control group, whereas those of collagen, type I, and alpha 1 increased significantly, by 4.9-fold. The mRNA expression levels of cancer suppression genes p16 and p53 in dermal fibroblasts were also significantly reduced by 630-nm OLED irradiation, by about 1.4- and three-fold, respectively, compared to the control. Overall, it was confirmed that 630-nm OLED irradiation lowered the level of ROS formation induced by H₂O₂ in dermal fibroblasts, and that this antioxidant effect could regulate the mRNA expression levels of aging- and tumor suppression-related genes. This study shows a link between 630-nm OLED irradiation and anti-aging physiological functions such as antioxidant function, and suggests the potential of OLEDs as a useful light source for skin care.

This study was performed to determine the optimal dose of laser energy for wound healing. The skin wound with 8mm diameter was induced over the lumbar vertebrae of the rats, and wound squares, scab hardness, hematologic findings and histopathlogic findings according to irradiation of laser energy were studied. 1. Wound square was significantly reduced at Day 1 (p<0.01), 2 (p<0.01), 3 (p<0.05), 7 (p<0.01) and 8 (p<0.05), respectively in experimental groups, especially group II, compared with control group. 2. Scab hardness was significantly increased at Day 1 (p<0.01), 2 (p<0.01), 3 (p<0.05), 5 (p<0.01) and 7 (p<0.01), respectively in experimental groups, especially group II, compared with control group. 3. In hematological findings, red blood cells and white blood cells in experimental group were increased according to the lapse of days, but they were not significant. 4. In histopathologic findings, experimental groups, especially group II, revealed early scab formation, early appearance of phagocytes and fibroblast, rapid growth of granulation tissue and collagen, and promotion of wound healing in the result.

This experiment was performed to confirm the hypothesis that LLLT had biostimulation effect for all kinds of cells and there would be differences in the growth of cells among different types of pulsed laser. 360 samples were used in this study. The samples were randomly divided in 6 groups according to the pulse type : quasi continuous type (CW), pulse 1(P1), pulse 7(P7), pulse 9(P9), pulse 15(P15) and shame-irradiated control(Co) groups. Energy fluences of all experimental groups, P1, P7, P9, P15 and CW were 2.12, 2.12, 6.37, 57.32 and 31.85 mj/cm2 respectively. All samples were irradiated for every 1 minute at 0, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 hours. Ten samples of each group were sacrificed at 0 and every 12 hours and then the optical density of all samples was measured with the spectrophotometer. As a result, some types of pulses showed significant differences among groups. The increase of cells were markedly stimulated with laser irradiation in P7 and P9 groups, while inhibited in CW, P1, and P15 groups compared with control group. It is therefore, suggested that specific laser pulse should be recommanded to have the biostimulation effects on the specific tissue or cells, although the biostimulation effect is does dependant.
