The effect of the $O_2$ concentration in the sputtering gas mixture, substate temperature and Ar pressure on the structural and optical properties of 3 mol% YSZ and 8 mol% YSZ thin films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering were investigated . The films were observed to have various crystal structures with different compositions in accordance with the type of the target materials. The size of fine grain-like particles decreased wiht increasing the $O_2$ concentration in the sputtering gas in the case of 3mol% YSZ, while it increased in the case of 8 mol% YSZ . However, the average opticla transmission of 8mol% YSZ, despite of thicker thickness. was higher than that of 3 mol% YSZ. Furthermore, the values of refractive index of 3mol% YSZ increased with increasing the $O_2$ concentration in the sputtering gas on the contrary to those of the 8 mol% YSZ. However, the transmission spectra of 8 mol% YSZ films were not strongly influenced by the substrate temperature and Ar pressure, whereas the refractive index of the YSZ films were strongly affected by the sputtering parameters.

Optical filters with graded index profiles are designed by applying the fourier transform to a riccati equation which governs the reflection and transmission characteristics of inhomogeneous refractive index distributions. The inhomogeneous refractive index profile of an optical filter with specified target spectrum is obtained through iterations. The spectra response of the inhomogeneous refractive index layers are analyzed by using runge-dutta numerical method to solve the differential euations of the amplitude and the phase of reflection coefficient derived from the riccati equation and the results are in good agreement with the resutls obtained by using matrix method.

We develop Mueller-matrix spectroscopic ellipsometry based on dual compensator configuration. This technique is very powerful for measuring surface anisotropy in nano-scale, especially when materials show depolarization. Dual-rotating compensator configuration is adopted with the rotational ratio of 5:3 originally developed by Collins et al[1]. The instrument can provide 250-point spectra over the wavelength range from 230 nm to 820 nm in one irradiance waveform with minimum acquisition time of Tc=10 s. In this work, the results obtained in transmission modes are presented for the initial attempt. We present calibration procedures to diagnose the system from the utilized data collected in transmission mode without sample. We expect that the instrument will have important applications in thin films and surfaces that have anisotropy and inhomogeneity.

We have measured the optical spectra while varying the temperature of photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) with periodic air holes in the cladding. These are liquid crystal infiltrated fibers. For the liquid crystal infiltrated PCFs, we obtained the transmission of several wavelengths at specific temperatures. The transmission power could be reduced by about $10\sim15dB$ by varying the applied temperature in the liquid crystal PCF. We expect that it is applicable as a wavelength switching device in the specific wavelength band.

The transmission spectra, the wavelength tunability. and the polarization characteristics of mechanically induced long-period fiber gratings (LPFG's) are investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The transmission and mode coupling characteristics of the fabricated LPFG's agree well with the theoretical results. The resonant wavelengths at which the mode coupling occurs can be tuned over 180 nm and the peak wavelengths for of oethogonally polarized lights are split by -9 nm.

Transparent metal cathodes using Ca/Ag, Ba/Ag double layers have been fabricated to investigate its optical transmission. The transmission spectra show that Ca/Ag and Ba/Ag double layers result in higher transmittance compared to Ag single layer. The Ba/Ag double layer shows over 80% transmittance at 400 nm and 70% at 700 nm. The electroluminescence efficiency of fluorescent TEOLED using Ba/Ag transparent metal cathode was 10 ~ 15 cd/A.

The ZnSe sample grown by chemical bath deposition (CBD) method were annealed in Ar gas at 450$^{\circ}C$ Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction pattern, it was found to have zinc blend structure whose lattice parameter a$\_$o/ was 5.6687 ${\AA}$. From Hall effect, the mobility was likely to be decreased by impurity scattering at temperature range from 10 K to 150 K and by lattice scattering at temperature range from 150 K to 29 3K. The band gap given by the transmission edge changed from 2.7005 eV at 293 K to 2.8739 eV at 10 K. Comparing photocurrent peak position with transmission edge, we could find that photocurrent peaks due to excition electrons from valence band, $\Gamma$$\_$8/ and $\Gamma$$\_$7/ to conduction band $\Gamma$$\_$6/ were observed at photocurrent spectrum. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light on the ZnSe thin film, we have found that values of spin orbit coupling splitting Δso is 0.0981 eV. From the PL spectra at 10 K, the peaks corresponding to free bound excitons and D-A pair and a broad emission band due to SA is identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.0612 eV and the dissipation energy of the donor -bound exciton and acceptor-bound exciton to be 0.0172 eV, 0.0310 eV, respectively.

TiO$_2$ thin films have been grown by MOCVD. Envelope methods are applied to the analysis of the transmission spectra to obtain the optical constants such as refractive indices and extinction coefficients for the TiO$_2$ thin films. The envelope methods are proved to be accurate by simulating the transmission spectra. TiO$_2$ thin films start to crystallize at 35$0^{\circ}C$ and then crystallize fully into anatase phase at foot or higher temperatures. Activation energies are obtained by plotting the deposition rate with varying the substrate temperature. It is 17.8 kcal/mol for the reaction limited regions. The refractive infer and the extinction coefficient of the TiO$_2$ thin film at λ=632.8 nm increases from 2.19 to 2.32 and decreases from 0.021 to 0.007, respectively, as the substrate temperature increases from 400 to $600^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, we analyze transmission characteristics of ultrashort laser pulses using the property of high-order pulses which are systematically obtained following their orders. The high-order pulses are easily derived from a modified PRS system model. But we make clear they are very useful to cover wider area and more accurate transmission characteristics of ultrashort pulses than Gaussian or Sech pulse approximations used conventionally. This may be based on the fact that the spectra and bandwidths of the high-order pulses are beautifully related to their orders. first modifying the generalized PRS system model, we propose a new model for deriving any type of high-order pulse. And we offer a novel analysis method of ultrashort pulse transmission which has any shape and FWHM, using the proposed model. In addition, by fixing the pulse range $\tau$=1(ps) and varying the order of the pulse from n:1 to n=100, we obtain spectra of ultrashort pulses with 1(ps)-150(fs) FWHM's, which are widely used in fiber communications. As a one-step further, we derive PSD's of their pulse trains when they are applied to Unipolar signaling scheme. These PSD's are decided in the range of possible pulse intervals. All of these results are not only coincided with some conventional experimental works but also will be applied to any pioneering ultrashort pulse in the future.
