  • The interaction of natural convection and radiation heat transfer in a two dimensional square enclosure containing absorbing, emitting and linear anisotropically scattering gray medium is numerically analyzed. P-1 and P-3 approximation is introduced to calculate radiation heat transfer. The effects of scattering albedo, wall emissivity, scattering anisotropy, and optical thickness on the characteristics of the flow and temperature field and heat transfer are investigated. Temperature and velocity profiles depend a great deal on the scattering albedo, and the importance of this effect increases with decrease in albelo. Planck number is another important parameter in radiation heat transfer. The increase in scattering albedo increases convection heat transfer and decreases radiation heat transfer at hot wall. However, the increase in scattering albedo decreases both convection and radiation heat transfer at cold wall. The increase in optical thickness decreases radiation heat transfer. The scattering anisotropy has important effects on the radiation heat transfer only. The highly forward scattering leads to an increase of radiation heat transfer whereas the highly backward scattering leads to an decrease of radiation heat transfer. The effect of scattering anisotropy decreases when reducing the wall emissivity.

  • The quality of images displayed by using an LC projector is strongly influenced by the cell-gap variations over LC panels, the essential components of the projector. We show that such influence can be relieved by introducing slit patterns in the pixel electrodes in the LC panels. The improvement comes from the compensation of the influence of cell-gap variations by optical anisotropy variations arising from the lateral components of the electric field generated by the slit patterned electrodes. Simulations show that cell-gap tolerance can be increased by more than 50% by introducing the slit patterns. This method can be used in TN mode LC panels, which use LC's with positive dielectric anisotropy. tropy.

  • In this paper, we have studied on the optimal design of the optical compensation film for the TN-LCDs. To have wide viewing angle panels, several methods such as multi-domain method, optical path method, and phase compensation method have been proposed. Among these methods, this paper focused on the phase compensation method. In the phase compensation method, the phase retardation generated from the optical birefringence for the off-axis incident is compensated by using optical films with refractive anisotropy. To compensate the phase retardation of the TN-LCDs, we have proposed design concept for the biaxial optical films and analyzed the optical performance for the proposed structures. The calculation of the dynamic motion of the liquid crystals was based on the Ericksen-Leslie theory and the optical performance of the TN-LCD was calculated from the Extended Jones Matrix Method. From the results, we have confirmed that the optical characteristics of the TN-LCDs with the biaxial films have been improved considerably compared with the TN-LCDs compensated by the combination of the uniaxial films.

  • In this paper, tensile test was performed on pure titanium sheet (CP Ti sheet) with HCP structure in each direction to evaluate mechanical and surface properties and analyze microstructural changes during plastic deformation. We also evaluated forming limits of Ti direction in dome-type punch stretching test using a non-contact three-dimensional optical measurement system. As a result, it was revealed the pure titanium sheet has strong anisotropic property in yield stress, stress-strain curve and anisotropy coefficient according to direction. It was revealed that twinning occurred when the pure titanium sheet was plastic deformed, and tendency depends differently on direction and deformation mode. Moreover, this seems to affect the physical properties and deformation of the material. In addition, it was revealed the pure titanium sheet had different surface roughness changes in 0 degree direction and 90 degree direction due to large difference of anisotropy, and this affects the forming limit. It was revealed the forming limit of each direction obtained through the punch stretching test gave higher value in 90 degree direction compared with forming limit in 0 degree direction.

  • As the adoption of injection molding technology increases, injected-molded optical products require higher dimensional accuracy and optical stability than ever before. In the present study, four kinds of molding methods, i.e., conventional injection molding (CIM), injection/compression molding (ICM), rapid heat and cooling the mold(RHCM) and rapid injection/compression molding (RICM) were selected in order to investigate the optical anisotropy of a 7 inch Light Guide Plate(LGP) by examining the gap-wise distribution of birefringence and the extinction angle. The results indicate that the compression process can decrease flow-induced birefringence over the whole region and that rapid heating can decrease the birefringence level better than conventional molding. In addition, for the combination of compression and rapid heating a reversal flow was detected from the distribution of the extinction angle near the gate.

  • Conformational heterogeneity of directly linked multiporphyrin arrays with larger molecular length retards their utilities in practical applications such as two-photon absorption and molecular photonic wire. In this regard, here we adopted a way to overcome the conformational heterogeneity through hydrogen bonding by selective binding of meso aryl substituents of porphyrins (host) with urea (guest) to form helical structure. Using steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy, we observed the enhanced fluorescence quantum yield by ~1.8 to 2.4 times, enhanced anisotropy values and the disappearance of fast fluorescence decay component in the host-guest helical forms. In addition, the enhanced nonlinear optical responses of helical arrays infer the extended inter-porphyrin electronic coupling due to a significant change in dihedral angle between the neighboring porphyrin moieties. The current host-guest strategy will provide a guideline to improve the structural homogeneity of the photonic wire.

  • It is still needed to study the effect of process conditions on the final properties of injection-molded parts for producing precision optical products. Especially, the optical anisotropy, i.e., birefringence, is a significant factor to affect the function of many optical components. In the present study we have focused on the effect of holding and compression processes on the birefringence remaining in the transparent disc by examining the gap-wise distribution of birefringence and extinction angle. As a result, two extra birefringence and extinction peaks near the center in thickness direction showed the effect of holding pressure, which came from the flow in packing stage. However, more uniform birefringence distribution than injection-only cases could be found in injection/compression cases. Depends on the process condition even the flow reversal could be found from the distribution of extinction angle. Finally, graphical representation of optical indicatrix was added for better understanding the final structure of injection-only and injection/compression cases.
