ZnO thin films on silicon substrates have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition technique(PLD). A Nd:YAG laser was used with the wavelength of 355 nm. In order to investigate the effect of oxygen post-annealing treatment on the property of ZnO thin films, deposited film has been annealed at the substrate temperature of $440^{\circ}C$. After post-annealing treatment in the oxygen ambient, the stoichiometry of ZnO film has been characterized be improved which results in higher UV emission intensity of photoluminescence.

Dye-sensitized solar cell using transparent conducting oxide as electrode has large resistance such as surface resistance, charge transportation impedance in counter electrode and electrolyte, impedance between each interface. Among that resistances, surface resistance of transparent conducting oxide is relatively large. So the change of transparency has a large effect on internal resistance of dye-sensitized solar cell. Consequently, that change cause to increase or decrease the conversion efficiency. We tried to reduce the surface resistance by laser-scribing. The active area is seperated from total transparent conducting oxide by Nd:YAG laser-scribing. As a result, we achieved the improvement of efficiency about 7% and 11% in case of $0.25cm^2$ and $1.00cm^2$ dye-sensitized solar cells.

Optical broadband second harmonic genration (SHG) in thin film waveguide structure was investigated. The copolymer poly(MMA-co-DR1MA) which was consiste dof PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) and DR 1 (disperse red 1) was spin coated on the pyrex substrate. The green and near UV SHG were observe dfrom the fundamental beam even though the poled polymer has the absorption in second harmonic wavelength range. It was able to genrate SHG by cerenkov type phase matching. Th epoled polymer film thickness was decided by theoretical analysis. The green (532nm) and near UV SHG (370nm) were observed from the Q-switched Nd-YAG laser (1064nm) and Ti-sapphire laser (740nm). It was in good agreement with the experimental results.

Information on temporal evolution of whole velocity fields is essential for physical understanding of a complicated turbulent flow and was obtainable using dynamic PIV because of advances of high-speed imaging technique, laser and electronics. A dynamic PIV systme consists of a high-speed CMOS camera having $1K\times1K$ pixels resolution at 1 KHz and a high-repetition Nd:Yag pulse laser. In order to validate its performance, the dynamic PIV system was applied to a turbulent jet whose Reynolds number is about 3000. The particle images of $1024\times512$ pixels were captured at a sampling rate of 4 KHz. The dynamic PIV system measured successfully the temporal evolution of instantaneous velocity fields of the turbulent jet, from which spectral analysis of turbulent structure was also feasible.

Recently new engine system is being required to cope with intensive emission restriction . For this reason, GDI(Gasoline direct injection) engine system which can satisfy both as good fuel economy as diesel engine and the performance to surpass PFI gasoline engine is being development . Since fuel injection system plays a significant role in GDI engine performance, the investigation of the spray characteristics injected from GDI injector above all is indispensable for GDI system development. In this study , spray developing shape was visualized using laser sheet with Nd : YAG laser and atomization characteristics was analyzed by measuring velocities and droplet size with PDA. Utilizing these results , the basic design factor of GDI injector can be offered.

This paper is the second of 3 companion papers which investigate axial stratification process. In-cylinder fuel behavior has been investigated in the port injected Sl engine by visualizing for the purpose of understanding stratification. Planar laser light sheet from an Nd:YAG laser has been illuminated through the transparent quartz cylinder of the single cylinder optical engine and the Mie scattered light has been captured through the quartz window in the piston head with an ICCD camera. Fuel has been replaced with an air-ethanol mixture to utilize atomized fuel spray fur the visualization purposes. This results have been compared with steady flow concentration measurement. For low/medium swirl port, the early injection makes such a fuel distribution state that is upper-rich, middle-lean and lower-rich along the combustion chamber and cylinder by tumbling motion. On the other hand, the late injection induces upper-rich, middle-lean and lower-rich state due to the short fuel penetration.

This paper is the third of 3 companion papers which investigate axial stratification process. In-cylinder fuel behavior has been investigated in the port injected SI engine by visualizing for the purpose of understanding stratification. Planar laser light sheet from an Nd:YAG laser has been illuminated through the transparent quartz cylinder of the single cylinder optical engine and the Mie scattered light has been captured through the quartz window in the piston head with an ICCD camera. Fuel has been replaced with an air-ethanol mixture to utilize atomized fuel spray for the visualization purposes. This results have been compared with steady flow concentration measurement. In high swirl port, the most fuel remains at combustion chamber and upper cylinder region without being affected by injection timing. The macro-distributed state is not changed but the difference of the amount of fuel around the spark plug varies according to injection timing, which determines LML.

Hydrogen passivation of Si nanocrystals identifies luminescence mechanism indirectly. Si nanocrystallites thin films on p-type (100) Si substrate have been fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser After deposition, Si nanocrystallites thin films have been annealed at 600$^{\circ}C$ and 760$^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen ambient, respectively. Hydrogen passivation was subsequently performed at 500$^{\circ}C$ in forming gas (95 % N$_2$ + 5 % H$_2$) for an 1 hour. We report the photoluminescnece(PL) property of Si thin films by the hydrogen passivation. The luminescence mechanism of Si nanocrystallites has also been investigated.

The variation of photoluminescence(PL) properties of Si thin films was investigated by changing deposition temperatures, Si-rich silicon oxide films on p-type (100) Si substrate have been fabricated by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) technique using a Nd:YAG laser. During deposition, the substrates were kept at the temperature range of room temperature(RT) to $400^{\circ}C$. After deposition, samples were annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen ambient, Strong Blue PL has been observed on RT-deposited Si nanocrystallites. When the deposition temperature was increased over $100^{\circ}C$, PL intensities abruptly decreased. The experimental results show the growing mechanism of Si nanocrystallites by PLD.

The spray characteristics of the rotating fuel injection system were investigated. The special test rig was devised to get the spatial and momentary droplet information. This experimental apparatus consists of a high-speed motor, a shaft, a rotating fuel nozzle and an acrylic case. Spray droplet size and velocity were measured by PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) and instantaneous velocity field was measured by 1'IV (Particle Image Velocimetry) system. At the same time, spray visualization was performed by using ND-YAG laser-based flash photography. From these two different laser diagnostic techniques, we could get spatial and instantaneous spray information fur rotating fuel injection system. The results presented in this paper indicate that spray characteristics such as droplet size, velocity and spray pattern were strongly influenced by rotational speed.
