We will discuss two-dimmensional spectrophotometry including long-slit spectroscopy and narrow-band imaging. The basic principles, applications, and techniques of observations and data reduction of spectroscopy and spectrophotometry for extended objects are described. This discussion will focus on practical long-slit spectroscopy using a Cassegrain spectrograph attached with 2 or 4m class telescopes and on imaging spectrophotometry using narrow-band interference filter sets. We will discuss scientific applications.

We present the initial results of rest-frame optical spectroscopy of quasars at 3 < z < 5 from the AKARI space telescope mission program QSONG (Quasar Spectroscopic Observation with NIR Grism). QSONG is an AKARI phase-3 mission program which utilizes the unique capability of spectroscopy at 2.5-5 microns, and is adequate for detecting redshifted Balmer lines. We focus on how to overcome the noise induced from instrumental degradation, and report our measurements of supermassive black hole (SMBH) masses with well calibrated optical mass estimators.

Utilizing a unique capability of AKARI that allows deep spectroscopy at $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$, we performed a spectroscopy study of more than 200 quasars through one of the AKARI mission programs, QSONG (Quasar Spectroscopic Observation with NIR Grism). QSONG targeted 155 high redshift (3.3 < z < 6.42) quasars and 90 low redshift active galactic nuclei (0.002 < z < 0.48). In order to provide black hole mass estimates based on the rest-frame optical spectra, the high redshift part of QSONG is designed to detect the $H{\alpha}$ line and the rest-frame optical spectra of quasars at z > 3.3. The low redshift part of QSONG is geared to uncover the rest-frame $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ spectral features of active galactic nuclei to gain useful information such as the dust-extinction-free black hole mass estimators based on the Brackett lines and the temperatures of the hot dust torus. We outline the program strategy, and present some of the scientific highlights from QSONG, including the detection of the $H{\alpha}$ line from a quasar at z > 4.5 which indicates a rigorous growth of black holes in the early universe, and the $Br{\beta}$-based black hole mass estimators and the hot dust temperatures (~ 1100 K) of low redshift AGNs.

In this paper we studied the laser-induced crater depth, mass, and emission spectra of laser-ablated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) polymer using the laser-induced plasma spectroscopy (LIPS) technique. This study was performed using a Nd:YAG laser with 100 mJ energy and 7 ns pulse width, focused normal to the surface of the sample. The nanoscale change in ablated depth versus number of laser pulses was studied. By using scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the crater depth and ablated mass were estimated. The LIPS spectral intensities were observed for major and minor elements with depth. The comparison between the LIPS results and SEM images showed that LIPS could be used to estimate the crater depth, which is of interest for some applications such as thin-film lithography measurements and online measurements of thickness in film deposition techniques.

We summarize the progress on the rest-frame optical spectroscopy of quasars at 3$2.5-5{\mu}m$. This spectral window has been utilized for detecting redshifted $H{\alpha}$ emission lines of our high redshift subsample of quasars. From the calculated emission line widths and luminosities we measured supermassive black hole masses using well calibrated optical mass estimators. Science topics regarding optical based black hole masses at high-z are discussed.

We report the growth of high quality zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films on amorphous glass substrates and their structural and optical characteristics. For the growth of ZnO films, mechanically exfoliated ultrathin graphite or graphene layers were used as an intermediate layer because ZnO does not have any heteroepitaxial relationship with the amorphous substrates, which significantly improved the crystallinity of the ZnO films. Structural and optical characteristics of the films were investigated using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and variable temperature photoluminescence spectroscopy. High crystallinity and excellent optical characteristics such as stimulated emission were exhibited from the high quality ZnO films grown on glass substrates.

OFC (Optical Frequency Comb) is an optical spectrum which consists of equidistant lines in frequency space. OFC can thus be used as an optical ruler. Since it was demonstrated in late 1990s, it is revolutionizing many fields in frequency metrology such as the measurement of absolute optical frequencies, the measure ratios of optical frequencies with extremely high precision. It is also used in high-precision spectroscopy. In astronomy, OFC can be used as a very accurate and stable wavelength standard for a high resolution spectrograph to measure the radial velocity of celestial bodies with extremely high accuracy of about several tens cm/s. In our presentation, we will introduce some basic concepts of OFC and some issues to use it in astronomical spectrograph. We will also present our plan to develop a high resolution spectrograph with OFC.

We report the results of our high resolution optical spectroscopic monitoring campaign (${\lambda}$ = 3800 ~ 8800 ${\AA}$, R = 30000 - 45000) of the new FU Orionis-type object HBC 722. We observed HBC 722 with the BOES 1.8-m telescope between November 26 and December 29, 2010, and FU Orionis itself on January 26, 2011. We detect a number of previously unreported high-resolution K I and Ca II lines beyond 7500 ${\AA}$. We resolve the H${\alpha}$ and Ca II line profiles into three velocity components, which we attribute to both disk and outflow. The increased accretion during outburst can heat the disk to produce the relatively narrow absorption feature and launch outflows appearing as high velocity blue and red-shifted broad features.

We present the result of systematic AKARI IRC infrared $2.5-5{\mu}m$ spectroscopy of >100 nearby luminous infrared galaxies, to investigate the energetic roles of starbursts and optically-elusive buried AGNs. Based on (1) the equivalent widths of the $3.3{\mu}m$ PAH emission features, (2) the optical depths of absorption features, and (3) continuum slopes, we can disentangle emission from starbursts and AGNs. We find that the energetic importance of buried AGNs increases with increasing galaxy infrared luminosities, suggesting that the AGN-starburst connections (and thereby possible AGN feedback to host galaxies) are luminosity dependent.
