We can classify two cases in a way to observe an atom of gas state or a molecule using the laser. First case is way to use dispersion phenomenon like Rayleigh scattering, Thomson scattering, Mie scattering, Raman Scattering. And Second case is a way to use change phenomenon like a LAS (Laser Absorption Spectroscopy), LIF (Laser Induced Fluorescent). In this paper, we have measured the meta-stable density and the distribution by using a LAS method in Xe discharge lamp. The laser absorption spectroscopy (LAS) is useful to investigate the behavior of such species. The xenon atoms in the $1S_4$ and $1S_5$ generate excited $Xe^*$(147nm) and $Xe_{2}^*$(173nm) dimers in Xe plasma. It is found that the intensity of VUV 147nm emission is proportional to that of the IR 828nm emission, and the VUV 173nm emission is roughly proportional to that of the IR 823nm emission. The laser is used CW laser that consist of AlGaAs semiconductor and energy level is used 823.16nm wavelength. We measured signal of monochrometer from the lamp center while will change a discharge electric current by 6mA in 3mA and calculated meta-stable state density of a xenon atom through a measured value.

Photodynamic diagnosis(PDD) is a method to diagnose the possibility of cancer, both by the principle that if a photosensitizer is injected into an organic tissue, it is accumulated in the tissue of a malignant tumor selectively after a specific period, and by a comparison of the intensity of the fluorescence of normal tissue with abnormal tissue after investigating the excitation light of a tissue with accumulated photosensitizer. Since the selection of the wavelength band of excitation light has an interrelation with fluorescence generation according to the selection of a photosencitizer, it plays an important role in POD. This study aims at designing and evaluating light source devices that can stably generate light with various kinds of wavelengths In order to make possible PDD using a photosensitizer and diagnosis using auto-fluorescence. The light source device was a Xenon lamp and filter wheel, composed of an optical output control through Iris and filters with several wavelength bands It also makes the inducement of auto-fluorescence possible because it is designed to generate a wavelength band of 380-400. The transmission part of the light source was, developed to enhance the efficiency of light transmission. To evaluate this light source device, the characteristics of the light output and wavelength band were verified. To validate the capability of this device as PDD the detection of auto-fluorescence using mouse was performed.

It has been recently reported that nano-sized MgO single crystal powders emit ultraviolet by stimulation of electrons under vacuum condition. Therefore, in this study, nano-crystalline MgO powders were applied to a xenon plasma flat fluorescent lamp for LCD backlight to improve emission efficiency of the lamp by help of extra ultraviolet from nano-MgO. For comparison with nano-crystalline MgO powders, MgO nano-thin film was applied directly on phosphors inside a lamp panel through e-beam evaporation The luminance and efficiency of FFL with an addition of MgO nano-crystal powders on phosphors were improved by around 20%. Application of MgO thin film to phosphors worsened the emission characteristics of FFLs, even rather than FFL without MgO. The reason came from insufficient stimulation of phosphors by UV, crystallinity of MgO, and low secondary electron coefficient.

The mathematical simulation of voltage and current waveform of the discharge lamp is useful for the analysis and design of ballasting circuits. This paper proposes a mathematical model which has lamp power and negative voltage drop in discharge lamp. Simulation applying the proposed model has been done, and the results are compared with the experimental results. Furthermore, in the paper, the ballast components(core, transformer) was designed such that high intensity discharge could be optimized for the automotive, by applying a method simulation based design.

This study was performed to analyze the effect of light quality of discharge lamp on growth and phytochemicals contents of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv. Jeokchima) grown under metal halide (MH) lamp, high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamp, and xenon (XE) lamp in a plant factory. Cool-white fluorescent (FL) lamp was used as the control. Photoperiod, air temperature, relative humidity, $CO_2$ concentration, and photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) in a plant factory were 16/8 h (day/night), $22/18^{\circ}C$, 70%, 400 ${\mu}mol{\cdot}mol^{-1}$, and 200 ${\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, respectively. MH lamp had the greatest fraction of blue light (400-500 nm) of 23.0%. However, HPS lamp had the lowest fraction of 4.7% for blue light and the greatest fraction of 38.0% for red light (600-700 nm). At 11 and 21 days after transplanting, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, shoot fresh weight, and shoot dry weight of lettuce as affected by the light quality of the discharge lamp were significantly different. The leaf area of lettuce grown under HPS, MH, and XE lamp increased by 45.7%, 16.3%, and 9.5%, respectively, as compared to the control. These results were similar for shoot fresh weight. Growth characteristics of lettuce grown under HPS lamp increased since HPS lamp had more fraction of red light. However, growth of lettuce grown under MH and XE lamp decreased since they had more fraction of blue light. As compared to the control, the ascorbic acid in lettuce leaves grown under discharge lamp decreased. The greatest anthocyanins accumulation of 0.70 mg/100 g was found at MH treatment. Anthocyanins content in lettuce leaves grown under XL and HPS lamp were 79.3% and 8.6%, respectively, compared with the control. Growth and phytochemicals contents of lettuce were highly affected by the different spectral distribution of the discharge lamp. These results indicate that the combination of discharge lamp or LED lamp for enhancing the light quality of discharge lamps is required to increase the growth and phytochemicals accumulation of lettuce in controlled environment such as plant factory.

To evaluate the color change of the dyed materials by ultraviolet and visible rays in the museum, a system that accelerates dye fading was developed. Radiation energy from a Xenon lamp is irradiated on the samples through the filters of defferent cut-on wavelengths. As a result, the color change as a function of the wavelength and irradiation is calculated.

Two types of ozone monitors using UV absorption method were tried in consideration of cost of the monitor and precision in measuring. The high concentration ozone monitor for high concentration real time ozone monitoring from ozone generator was composed of a low pressure mercury lamp as UV source, a photo multiplier tube as UV detector and signal processing unit for the most part. This structure could be very useful for low price high concentration ozone monitor due to simple system structure and fairly good monitoring characteristics. The developed system showed good linear output characteristics to ozone in the measuring concentration range of 0.05 and 2 wt.%. For accuracy ambient ozone monitoring in ambient in ppm level, the system composed of a high power pulsed xenon lamp as UV source, an optical spectrometer with a high sensitivity linear CCD array as UV detector and signal processing unit in brief speaking was proposed our study for the first time in the world. The developed system showed good linearity and sensitivity in relative low measuring range between 10ppm and 10,000ppm, and showed some feasibility of high resolution ozone monitor using CCD array as photodetector.

To evaluate the color change of the opaque resin materials, a measuring system including PAS(photodegradation acceleration system) was constructed. Xenon lamp is used as a light source in the PAS, and the radiant energy from the lamp is irradiated to the samples through serveral high-pass filters with cut-off wavelength in UV and visible region. The color difference of the samples were measured by using the measuring system with a spectrophotometer(CM-2002) and a computer. The result showed that the opaque resin materials changed severely in their color in the wavelength of UV region and changed a little in the wavelength of visible region.

In this paper we report on development of our original mercury-less fluorescent lamps for general lighting. These new-type lamps have multi-pairs of electrodes to maintain multi-discharge paths and to keep positive column diffused state. The omission characteristics oft the lamps were investigated. These discharge lamps were operated by pulsed discharge. By using multi-pairs of electrodes for xenon pulsed discharge fluorescent lamps, higher intensity of luminance was obtained than the conventional type of lamps using single pair of electrodes. Recently this type of lamp achieved over $9000\;cd/m^2$ and 50 lm/W.
