The fluorescent conjugated aromatic imine derivatives are systematically designed and synthesized as the high yield through the simple one-pot condensation reaction. The emission of the synthesized conjugated aromatic imine derivatives can be tuned efficiently in the range of about 100 nm by the change of electron donating groups constituting parent molecule, which shows the considerable quantum yields from 0.38 to 0.56.

Adding tunability to biological light emitters offers an unprecedented technique in biological sensing and imaging. Here, we report a tunable, lithographic-free, planar, and ultrathin metal-insulator-metal (MIM) resonator capable of tuning the optical properties solely by a silk/sodium fluorescein hydrogel layer, a biocompatible light emitter. In water, the volume of the resonator was expanded by swelling, and then the resonant mode could be shifted. Simulations predicted the red-shifted resonance peak in transmission when the MIM was swollen in water. The red-shift could be attributed to the increase in the thickness of the silk hydrogel layer due to the absorbed water. The shift of the resonance could affect the fluorescence of the dye in the silk hydrogel layer.

Rayleigh scattering and laser induced predissociative fluorescence are used to obtain two-dimensional images of temperature and species concentration in a laminar non-premixed flame of a diluted hydrogen jet. Rayleigh scattering cross-sections are experimentally obtained at 248nm. Planar images of OH and $O_2$ with tunable KrF excimer laser which has a) $0.5cm^{-1}$ linewidth, b) 0.5nm tuning range, c) 150mJ pulse energy, and d) 20ns pulse width are obtained to determine spatial distributions of OH and $O_2$. The technique is based on planar laser induced predissociative fluorescence (PLIPF) in which collisional quenching is almost avoided because of the fast predissociation. Dispersed LIPF spectra of OH and $O_2$ are also measured in a flame in order to confirm the excitation of single vibronic state of OH and $O_2$. OH and $O_2$ are excited on the $P_2$(8) and $Q_1$(11) line of the $A^2{\Sigma}^{+}({\nu}^{'}=3)-X^{2}{\Pi}({\nu}^{''}=o)$ band and R(17) line of the Schumann-Runge band $B^{3}{\Sigma}_{u}{^-}(\nu^{'}=0)-X^{3}{\Sigma}_{g}{^-}({\nu}^{''}=6)$, respectively. Fluorescence spectra of OH and Hot $O_2$ are captured and two-dimensional images of the hydrogen flame field are successfully visualized.

방사광을 이용한 전반사 형광 분석법으로 Si 웨이퍼 표면 금속 불순물의 검출능을 향상시켰다. 측정장치는 특정 단색광 에너지만을 선택할 수 있는 모노크로메팅부, 측정챔버안으로 유입되는 방사광은 차폐하고 원하는 크기의 단색광을 선택하는 슬릿부 그리고 Si 웨이퍼 표면에서 전반사에 의해 발생하는 형광 X-선을 검출하는 측정부로 구성되어 있다. 단색광의 에너지는 10.90 KeV로 선택하였고, 최적의 전반사 조건을 확립하기 위하여 소멸시간과 Fe의 형광 X-선의 강도비의 관계를 이용하였다. 기존 X-선원을 이용하여 관찰한 결과와 비교하였을 경우에, 최대 약 50배까지 검출감도를 향상 시킬 수 있었다. 특히, TRXFA(Total Reflection X-ray Fluorescence Analyzer)법으로는 검출하기 어려운 $5\times10^{10}\textrm{atomas/cm}^2$ 수준의 금속오염은 방사광을 이용한 TRSFA(Total Reflection Synchrotron Fluorescence Analyzer)법으로는 충분히 검출할 수 있고, $5\times10^{9}\textrm{atomas/cm}^2$금속 불순물가지 검출할 수 있는 방법 및 장치를 개발하였다. 이를 이용하여 차세대 Si 웨이퍼의 초극미량 금속 불순물 분석에 이용할 수 있는 방법으로 기대된다.

Herein, we report on the preparation of red fluorescent Si nanoparticles stabilized with styrene. Nano-sized Si particles emit fluorescence under UV excitation, which could be used to open up new applications in the fields of optics and semi-conductor research. Unfortunately, conventional methods for the preparation of red fluorescent Si nanoparticles suffer from the lack of a fully-established standard synthesis protocol. A common initial approach during the preparation of semi-conductors is the etching of crystalline Si wafers in a HF/ethanol/$H_2O$ bath, which provides a uniformly-etched surface of nanopores amenable for further nano-sized modifications via tuning of various parameters. Subsequent sonication of the etched surface crumbles the pores on the wafer, resulting in the dispersion of particles into the solution. In this study, we use styrene to occupy these platforms to stabilize the surface. We determine that the liberated silicon particles in ethanol solution interact with styrene, resulting in the substitution of Si-H bonds with those of Si-C as determined via UV photo-catalysis. The synthesized styrene-coated Si nanoparticles exhibit a stable, bright, red fluorescence under excitation with a 365 nm UV light, and yield approximately 100 mg per wafer with a synthesis time of 2 h. We believe this protocol could be further expanded as a cost-effective and high-throughput standard method in the preparation of red fluorescent Si nanoparticles.

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.

Fluorescent nanoparticles are characterized by their unique properties such as luminescence, optical transparency, and sensitivity to various chemical environments. For example, semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots), which are nanophosphors doped with transition metal or rare earth ions, can be classified as fluorescent nanoparticles. Tuning their optical and physico-chemical properties can be carried out by considering and taking advantage of nanoscale effects. For instance, quantum confinement causes a much higher fluorescence with nanoparticles than with their bulk counterparts. Recently, various types of fluorescent nanoparticles have been synthesized to extend their applications to other fields. In this study, State-of-the-art fluorescent nanoparticles are reviewed with emphasis on their analytical and anti-counterfeiting applications and synthesis processes. Moreover, the fundamental principles behind the exceptional properties of fluorescent nanoparticles are discussed.

Acousto-optic tunable filter is a compact, all solid state electronic dispersive device. It is based on the acousto-optic interaction in an anisotropic crystal. Compared to conventional grating monochromators. the AOTF has no moving parts, wider spectral tuning range (from UV through visible and near-IR to IR), higher throughput, higher resolution, faster scanning (${\mu}s$) and random wavelength access. These features make it possible to use the filter to develop novel instruments which are not possible otherwise. The instrument development and unique advantages of such AOTF based instruments including the multidimensional fluorimeter, the multiwavelength thermal lens spectrometer, and the detectors for HPLC and flow injection analysis are described.

일반적인 근접장 현미경은 광섬유 팁 (tip) 끝에 수십 nm 크기의 구멍을 이용하여 근접장을 발생시키거나 측정한다. 근접장은 전파되는 빛보다 미세한 구조의 정보를 반영하게 되는데 수십 나노미터의 구멍대신 FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer)이라는 현상을 근접장 현미경에 적용하고자 한다. 10 nm 이내의 거리에서 상호작용을 하는 이 현상을 이용하여 광학적 분해능을 향상시킬 수 있다. FRET 현상의 도우너(donor)로서는 양자점을 사용하였으며 억셉터(acceptor) 로서는 Cy5 염료를 사용하였다. 팁으로는 광섬유를 에칭한 팁에 Cy5 염료를 코팅한 팁과 광섬유의 코어(core) 부근에 양자점이 포함된 광 폴리머를 응고시켜서 만들어진 팁을 사용하였다. 팁에 위치한 도우너와 시료로 사용되는 억셉터를 FRET 상호 작용 거리 내로 접근시키기 위하여 tuning fork를 이용한 shear force control을 사용하였다. 한 점에서의 접근 과정에서 FRET의 현상의 특징으로서 도우너인 양자점의 형광이 약해지고 Cy5의 형광이 강해지는 것을 측정하였다. 또한, 양자점을 Cy5 염료에 근접시켰을 때 발광 생존시간 (lifetime)이 짧아지는 것을 관찰하여 FRET 현상을 재확인 하였다.
