This study was carried out to solve problems such as radio frequency band depletion, confusion risk, and security loss in existing visible wireless communication systems, and to determine the applicability of next-generation networks. A light-emitting diode (LED) light communication system was implemented with a controlling switching light module using the ATmega16 micro-controller. To solve the existing modulation effect and disturbance in visible light communication, an integrated interface was evaluated with a driving light module and analyzes its reception property. A transmitter/receiver using the ATmel's micro-controller, high-intensity white LED-6 modules, and infrared sensor KSM60WLM and visible sensor TSL250RD were designed. An experiment from the initial value of distance to 2.5 m showed 0.46 V of the voltage loss, and if in long distance, external light interference occurred and light intensity was lost by external impact and thus data had to be modified or reset repeatedly. Additionally, when we used 6 modules through the remote controller's lighting dimming, data could be transmitted up to 1.76 m without any errors during the day and up to 2.29 m at night with around 2~3% communication error. If a special optical filter can reduce as much external light as possible in the integrated interface, the LED for lighting communication systems may be applied in next generation networks.

A simplified integration process including packaging is presented, which enables the realization of the portable fluorescence detection system. A fluorescence detection microchip system consisting of an integrated PIN photodiode, an organic light emitting diode (OLED) as the light source, an interference filter, and a microchannel was developed. The on-chip fluorescence detector fabricated by poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based packaging had thin-film structure. A silicon-based integrated PIN photo diode combined with an optical filter removed the background noise, which was produced by an excitation source, on the same substrate. The active area of the finger-type PIN photo diode was extended to obtain a higher detection sensitivity of fluorescence. The sensitivity and the limit of detection (LOD S/N = 3) of the system were $0.198\;nA/{\mu}M$ and $10\;{\mu}M$, respectively.

우리나라 수위관측소에 설치되어 있는 수위표는 야간 시인성 부족으로 야간이나 우천시 수위관측을 수행하는데 있어 많은 어려움이 있다. 특히 유량측정 전후 수위관측이 반드시 필요하지만 야간일 경우 눈으로 확인하는 것이 쉽지 않다. 야간 수위관측시 시인성을 높이기 위해 일부 관측소에서 야광도료를 이용하거나 빛의 반사효과를 높인 수위표를 설치하는 등의 노력을 하고 있으나 그 효과는 크지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 야간 수위관측시 수위 식별이 어려운 문제를 해결하기 위해 첨단 소자인 LED(Light Emitting Diode)를 이용한 수위표를 개발하고 동시에 전류식 수위센서를 이용하여 자동 수위측정이 가능한 수위표를 개발하였다. 이는 기존의 눈으로 확인하는 수위표와 로거에 저장되는 수위측정장치를 하나로 통합한 것이며 주야간을 가리지 않는 탁월한 시인성과 정확한 수위측정 및 수위자료의 저장이 특징이다. LED는 최근 각광받고 있는 첨단 소자로서 각종 전광판 등에 다양하게 활용되고 있으며 전력을 크게 소비하지 않는 것이 특징이다. 또한 전기장치를 수중에 설치하는 것이므로 방수를 위해 실리콘을 이용하여 완벽 방수구조를 갖추었으며 홍수시 하천 유하물에 의한 파손을 방지하기 위해 내구성을 갖춘 구조로 설계 제작하였다. LED를 이용한 수위표는 야간이나 홍수시 수위관측을 수행할 때 많은 장점이 있을 것으로 판단되며 저전력 구조로 상용전원을 이용할 수 없는 위치에서 태양열 전지판을 이용한 배터리 기반 시스템으로 구성할 수 있으므로 측정의 정확도, 활용도 측면뿐만 아니라 설치의 편리성 문제도 큰 장점을 가질 것으로 판단된다.

A transparent quantum dot (QD)-based light-emitting diode (LED) with silver nanowire (Ag NW) and indium-tin oxide (ITO) hybrid electrode is demonstrated. The device consists of an Ag NW-ITO hybrid cathode (-), zinc oxide, poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), CdSe/CdZnS QD, tungsten trioxide, and ITO anode (+). The device shows pure green-color emission peaking at 548 nm, with a narrow spectral half width of 43 nm. Devices with hybrid cathodes show better performances, including higher luminance with higher current density, and lower threshold voltage of 5 V, compared with the reference device with a pure Ag NW cathode. It is worth noting that our transparent device with hybrid cathode exhibits a lifetime 9,300 seconds longer than that of a device with Ag NW cathode. This is the reason that the ITO overlayer can protect against oxidization of Ag NW, and the Ag NW underlayer can reduce the junction resistance and spread the current efficiently. The hybrid cathode for our transparent QD LED can applicable to other quantum structure-based optical devices.

Due to the inconsiderateness of human capability and inappropriate arrangement of display and control unit at the industrial site, the human error leads to a various accidents. This study was performed to investigate the visual range at the eye field and stationary field at the various angles with three different visual stimuli of alphabetic character, color slip and light-emitting diode. Three kinds of various alphabetic characters depending on length and breadth ratio (1:1, 3:5, 5:3) and three different colors (red, yellow, green) were used for the stimuli. Twenty-five subjects (11 males and 14 females) participated for this study. The results showed that female had wider visual range than male at the eye field, however no significant difference was found at the stationary field. The light-emitting diode had a widest visual range then color slip and characters are in order at the eye field and stationary field. For the character stimulus, the widest visual range was shown at length and breadth ratio of 1:1. The other ratios (3:5 and 5:3) showed no significant difference. The color of red had a widest visual range on the light-emitting diode, however, the color of yellow showed a widest visual range on the just color slip at the eye field. The result of this study would be valuable in applying to the design of visual display and the panel layout of control and displays in the industrial site.

The Al:Au double-layer metal electrode for use in transparent, dual emission of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) was fabricated. The electrode of Al:Au metals with various thicknesses was deposited by the vacuum thermal evaporation technique. For Al thickness of 1 nm, a bottom luminance of $4880\;cd/m^2$ was observed at 8 V. Otherwise, top luminance of $2020\;cd/m^2$ were observed at 8 V. In addition, the threshold voltages of the electrodes were 2.2 V. It was forward that the inserting 1 nm Al between LiF and Au enhanced electron injection with tunneling effect.

In this report, Europium doped strontium barium gallium silicate ((Sr,Ba)2Ga2SiO7:Eu2+) phosphor has been synthesized by conventional solid-state method and investigated luminescent characteristic. Appropriate proportions of the raw materials were mixed in an agate mortar with acetone to obtain starting mixtures. Also, this phosphor was prepared by simple process under the reduction atmosphere (25% H2/75% N2). This phosphor can be applicated to the green phosphor for white LED because it has green emission band (513 nm), which emits efficiently under the 405nm excitation energy.

In this paper, we introduce an implementation method of switch-based LED (Light Emitting Diode) Art logic circuits to help understanding the operation principle of digital logic circuits. Digital logic circuit practice using bread board is widely practiced in colleges or high schools in South Korea. However, actual digital logic circuit practice lacks examples of basic implementation, and as results of this problem, study with more complicated examples disturbs understanding the basic operation principle of digital logic circuits. Therefore, we proposed and tested an implementation method of switch-based LED Art logic circuits to help understanding the necessity of digital logic circuits which control signals of multiple output devices simultaneously.
