  • The effect of storage conditions on the oxidative stability of cholesterol in butter was studied by identifing cholesterol oxides by TLC. Experimental variables for storage conditions were packaging(packaged and unpackaged), storage temperature(ambient and refrigerated), light source(dark, fluorescent and ultraviolet), and storage period(2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks). No cholesterol oxides were detected from packaged butter under all storage conditions. When unpackaged butter was stored under darkness at ambient and refrigerated temperatures, cholesterol oxides were not detected even after 6 weeks of storage, but small amounts of $7{\alpha}-and\;7{\beta}-hydroxycholesterols$ were detected after 8 weeks of storage. When unpackaged butter was stored under ultraviolet light at ambient temperature, $7{\alpha}-hydroxycholesterol,\;7{\beta}-hydroxycholesterol$ cholestane-triol, and cholesterol epoxide were detected after 2 weeks of storage, and when fluorescent light was used instead of ultraviolet light, the same species of cholesterol oxides were detected after 6 weeks of storage.

  • Radiative transfer models in a spherical, turbulent interstellar medium (ISM), in which the photon source is situated at the center, are calculated to investigate the correlation between the scattered light and the dust column density. The medium is modeled using fractional Brownian motion structures that are appropriate for turbulent ISM. The correlation plot between the scattered light and optical depth shows substantial scatter and deviation from simple proportionality. It was also found that the overall density contrast is smoothed out in scattered light. In other words, there is an enhancement of the dust-scattered flux in low-density regions, while the scattered flux is suppressed in high-density regions. The correlation becomes less significant as the scattering becomes closer to being isotropic and the medium becomes more turbulent. Therefore, the scattered light observed in near-infrared wavelengths would show much weaker correlation than the observations in optical and ultraviolet wavelengths. We also find that the correlation plot between scattered lights at two different wavelengths shows a tighter correlation than that of the scattered light versus the optical depth.

  • A water sterilization system is developed utilizing a 275 nm-wavelength LED light source equipped with a TIR lens. The system's light source is constructed by combining a 275 nm-wavelength UVC LED, known for its germicidal properties, with a TIR lens having a direction angle of 6.8 degrees. The optical simulation software 'LightTools' is employed to design and optimize the intensity of deep ultraviolet sterilizing light irradiation, its distribution, and sterilization capacity. In the inactivation experiment with E. coli, the water sterilizer system achieved a sterilization rate of 78.92 % while maintaining a water flow capacity of 50 L/min. Compared to the conventional mercury lamp light source water sterilizer system, the UVC LED water sterilizer system addresses environmental concerns related to mercury usage and offers advantages in terms of lifespan and durability.

  • The improvement of irradiation intensity and irradiation uniformity is essential for large area and high power UVA light source application. In this study, large number of chips bonded by micro soldering technique were driven by low current, and current limiting diodes were configured to supply constant current to parallel circuits consisting of large number of series strings. The dimension of light source module circuit board was $350{\times}90mm^2$ and 16,650 numbers of 385 nm flip chip LEDs were used with a configuration of 90 parallel and 185 series strings. The space between LEDs in parallel and series strings were maintained at 1.9 mm and 1.0 mm distance, respectively. The size of the flip chip was $750{\times}750{\mu}m^2$ were used with contact pads of $260{\times}669{\mu}m^2$ size, and SAC (96.5 Sn/3.0 Ag/0.5 Cu) solder was used for flip chip bonding. The fabricated light source module with 7.5 m A supply current showed temperature rise of $66^{\circ}C$, whereas irradiation was measured to be $300mW/cm^2$. Inaddition, 0.23% variation of the constant current in each series string was demonstrated.

  • When a light is projected upon a material, part of its radiation energy is absorbed and the rest is reflected or transmitted according to the nature of the material. The molecules of the substance absorbing a light obtains the radiation energy to the wavelength of the light to make photochemical degradation by ultraviolet ray or thermal reactions like physical damage by infrared ray. The degree of damage by radiation energy varies to the substances of materials, the spectral power distribution of the light source and the duration of irradiation. Because the damage brings about a devaluation of material and once damaged, it is irretrievable, it is necessary to minimize the damage and conserve the native quality of a material by a protective lighting system. A measuring system was set up to measure the temperature rise of each sample by infrared radiation from light sources. And the temperature rise and temperature distribution by various infrared lamps were measured with varying time.

  • A synchrotron light source is useful in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) regime for olecular spectroscopy, such as photo absorption, photoionization, and dissociative hotoionization. In this research, we used a double-ion chamber (DIC) to measure hotoabsorption cross sections of a NO molecule in the wavelength range from 90 to 135 nm of 3B1 beam-line of the Pohang synchrotron light source with the resolution of the onochromator being 0.06 nm. The appearance wavelength for ionization was measured to be $134.19{\pm}0.09nm$ that is placed in the middle of the reported values though they don't agree with each other within the relative error limits. The auxiliary experimental works ave been done to test if there are any systematic error sources. The resultant ross-sections agree with previous results in general.

  • We have investigated the excitation-light source dependence of photo-catalytic efficiency for the benzene removal. The photo-catalytic module for the benzene removal is fabricated by a combination of GaN-based ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV GaN-LED) and $TiO_2$ thin film coated on an aluminum plate. The benzene reduction rates of 365 nm and 375 nm modules at 60 mA junction current are approximately $8.95\;\%/Hr$ and $9.2\;\%/Hr$, respectively, which indicates that 365 nm GaN-LED is more effective than 375 nm GaN-LED. The benzene reduction efficiency is also noticeably dependent on the excitation wavelength and excitation-light power, as well as it is increased with the shorter wavelength and higher excitation power. This result exhibits that UV GaN-LED is useful to remove the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) existing in the environment.

  • Light can be divided into ultraviolet rays, visible rays, and infrared rays depending on the wavelengths. Visible rays with specific wavelength are those predominantly used for would treatment. Especially low level laser irradiates into cells, effectively stimulating cellular tissues and activating cellular function. This study was intended to verify the effect of white LED irradiation therapy on wound recovery in animal tests by applying white LED irradiator, which was independently designed and developed to emit beams of similar wavelength to that of a laser. The designed LED Irradiator was used to find out how white LED light source affected the skin wound of SD-Rat(Sprague-Dawley Rat). We divided the participants into two groups; white LED irradiation group which was irradiated 1 hour a day for 9 consecutive days, and none irradiation group. The results showed that the study group had lower incidence of inflammation and faster recovery, compared with the control group.

  • Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation of wavelength $\lambda$~10 nm or photon energy hv~100 eV is presently a blank region in the electromagnetic spectrum where applications are concerned. This is because no powerful sources were available until when intense-laser-produced plasmas are available. Both a new laboratory-sized source of EUV radiation and its new applications in lithography of semiconductor devices have been developed. (omitted)
