Ellipsometric and reflectance measurements were made on an iron surface in a cathodically reduced state and in an anodically passivated state. From the differences in the optical parameters (${\Delta},\;{\psi}$, and reflectance) between the reduced (film-free) and passivated (film-covered) states the thickness and optical constants of the surface film were determined. In the passive state at -400 mV vs. SCE in borate-boric acid buffer solution the anodic film had a thickness of about 11${\AA}$ and optical constants of ${\tilde{n}}$= 2.8 - 0.8 i. This value indicates a substantial electronic conductivity of the anodic film.

As various flexible display products are released, the demand for high-performance colorless and transparent polyimide (CPI) film is continuously increasing. The primary purpose of this study is to establish a systematic procedure for optimizing the optical performance of CPI films by applying the response surface method. After selecting three key factors (monomer type, stirring time for varnish synthesis, and maximum temperature of vacuum furnace for film production) affecting optical performance based on experiences and references, CPI films were manufactured according to the experimental sequence designed by the central composite design, and then the yellowness index (YI) and optical transmittance (Tr) of the films were measured. When producing a CPI film by pouring varnish into a petri dish, the change in optical properties according to thickness should be considered, and there was a meaningful linear relationship between YI and Tr. The species of monomer and the maximum temperature were the critical factors that had an influence on YI and Tr, respectively. It is expected that the procedure proposed in this study can serve as a starting point for CPI film optimization studies considering the other factors that were not considered and responses such as thermal properties.

A wide dynamic range heterodyne interferometer scheme using intermode beat between a stabilized, dual frequency He-Ne laser beam has been applied for a measurement of optical thickness of an optical medium. Resolution of the optical thickness measurement is about $\pm$ 1.74 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Using this technique, we are able to determine the optical thickness of an organic dye film. We also obtain a map of the optical thickness variations over a surface of the film

To study the optical transmittance through nickel thin films with various thicknesses. Methods: We measured the optical transmittance through thin nickel film with various thicknesses. Results: The thickness dependence of the optical transmittance through nickel thin films deposited by thermal evaporation had been investigated. The optical transmittance rapidly decreased with the Ni film thickness less than 70 nm while it slightly decreased with the thickness more than 70 nm. In the experiment of optical dispersion, most of the light transmitted in the incidence direction. The result of experiment showed that optical dispersion was negligibly. Conclusions: Optical transmittance exponentially decreased as nickel thin film thickness increased.

For higher sensitivity in ultraviolet (UV) and even vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) detection of silicon-based sensors, a sandwich-structured film sensor based on Ag Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) was designed and fabricated. This film sensor was composed of a Ag nanoparticles (NPs) layer, SiO2 buffer and fluorescence layer by physical vapour deposition and thermal annealing. By tuning the annealing temperature and adding the SiO2 layer, the resonance absorption wavelength of Ag NPs matched with the emission wavelength of the fluorescence layer. Due to the strong plasmon resonance coupling and electromagnetic field formed on the surface of Ag NPs, the radiative recombination rate of the luminescent materials and the number of fluorescent molecules in the excited state increased. Therefore, the fluorescent emission intensity of the sandwich-structured film sensor was 1.10-1.58 times at 120-200 nm and 2.17-2.93 times at 240-360 nm that of the single-layer film sensor. A feasible method is provided for improving the detection performance of UV and VUV detectors.

In this study, we investigate the deposition characteristics of merocyanine dye(MD) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). The MD optical system mixed with fatty acid was fabricated using LB method. And their optical characteristics were investigated using UV spectroscopy. The optical behavior of MD LB film was investigated asto thermal treatment. The resonant frequency and admittance was measured during dissociation of J-aggregate of MD LB film. As a result, it has been suggested that the J-aggregate dissociation in MD LB film by thermal treatment give rise to transformation of oscillation characteristics of quartz crystal.

We investigated the electro-optical(EO) performances of the super twisted nematic liquid crystal display(STN-LCD) on the polyimide(PI) surface using polymer film. The NLC pretilt angles generated are about $18^{\circ}$ by the rubbing alignment method on thin plastic substrates. However, the pretilt angle are at about $13^{\circ}$ lower on the glass substrate than on thin plastic substrate. Monodomain alignment of the plastic STN-LCD can be observed. A stable voltage-transmittance(V-T) curve of the plastic STN-LCD was observed on the polyimide(PI) surfaces using polymer film. Also, a faster response time for the plastic STN-LCD on the polyimide(PI) surfaces using polymer film can be achieved.
