Visible and IR windows require a combination of high optical transparency and superior thermal and mechanical properties. Materials, fabrication and characterization of transparent ceramics for visible/IR windows are discussed in this review. The transparent polycrystalline $Y_2O_3$, $Y_2O_3-MgO$ nanocomposites and $MgAl_2O_4$ spinel ceramics are fabricated by advanced ceramic processing and the use of special sintering technologies. Ceramic processing conditions for achieveing fully densified transparent ceramics are strongly dependent on the initial powder characteristics. In addition, appropriate use of sintering technologies, including vacuum sintering, hot-pressing and spark plasama sintering methods, results in outstanding thermal and mechanical properties as well as high optical transparency of the final products. Specifically, the elimination of light scattering factors, including residual pores, second phases and grain boundaries, is a key technique for improving the characteristics of the transparent ceramics. This paper discusses the current research issues related to synthesis methods and sintering processes for yttria-based transparent ceramics and $MgAl_2O_4$ spinel.

In recent years, energy-management studies in buildings have proven useful for energy savings. Typically, during heating and cooling, the energy from a given building is lost through its windows. Generally, to block the entry of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) rays, thin films of deposited metals or metal oxides are used, and the blocking of UV and IR rays by these thin films depends on the materials deposited on them. Therefore, by controlling the thicknesses and densities of the thin films, improving the transmittance of visible light and the blocking of heat rays such as UV and IR may be possible. Such improvements can be realized not only by changing the two-dimensional thin films but also by altering the zero-dimensional (0-D) nanostructures deposited on the films. In this study, 0-D nanoparticles were synthesized using a sol -gel procedure. The synthesized nanoparticles were deposited as deep coatings on polymer and glass substrates. Through spectral analysis in the UV-visible (vis) region, thin-film layers of deposited zinc oxide nanoparticles blocked >95 % of UV rays. For high transmittance in the visible-light region and low transmittance in the IR and UV regions, hybrid multiple layers of silica nanoparticles, zinc oxide particles, and fluorine-doped tin oxide nanoparticles were formed on glass and polymer substrates. Spectrophotometry in the UV-vis-near-IR regions revealed that the substrates prevented heat loss well. The glass and polymer substrates achieved transmittance values of 80 % in the visible-light region, 50 % to 60 % in the IR region, and 90 % in the UV region.

본 연구에서는 다공성 물질을 이용한 공기용 태양열 집열기에서 사용될 수 있는 유리덮개 및 다공성 매질의 파장에 따른 투과율(transmittance)을 UV-visible spectrophotometer및 FT-IR spectrometer을 이용하여 측정하였다. 유리의 경우에는 전자기 이론으로 유도된 투과율과 실험적 투과율을 비교하여 유리의 복소굴절율(complex refractive index)을 구하였다. 또한 분산이론(classical dispersion theory)으로부터 구한 이론적 복소굴절율과 비교하였다. 다공성 매질은 15 메쉬의 stainless steel wire screen을 여러 겹으로 겹쳐 이에 대한 투과율을 측정하였다. 그리고 two-flux모델을 사용하여 흡수계수(absorption coefficient) 및 후면산란 계수(backscattering coefficient)를 구하였다.

Increasing of the demand for energy savings for buildings, thermal barrier films have more attracted. In particular, as heat loss through the windows have been pointed out to major problems in the construction and automobile industries, the research is consistently conducted for improving the thermal blocking performance for windows. The main theory of the technology is reflect the infrared rays to help the cut off the inflow of the solar energy in summer and outflow of the heat from indoors in winter to save the energy on cooling and heating. Furthermore, this is well known for prevent glare, reduces fading caused by harmful ultraviolet radiation and easy to apply on constructed buildings if it made as a film. In addition to these advantages, apply the transparent electrode to eliminate condensation by heating. Generally ITO is used as a transparent electrode, but is has a low stability in environmental factors. In this study, ITO and its alternative, ATO, is deposited by sputtering system and then the characteristic is evaluated each material based thermal barrier thin film. The optical property was measured on wide range of wavelength (200 nm 2500 nm) to know the transparency in visible wavelength and reflectivity in IR wavelength range. The electrical property was judged by sheet resistivity. Finally the changes of the temperature and current of the deposited film was observed while applying a DC power.

A theoretical and experimental study was conducted in order to design highly efficient solar air heaters using porous material. Radiative characteristics of glass windows and porous absorbing media were correlated through spectral transmittances measured by the UV-Visible and the FT-IR spectrometers. Using those characteristics the efficiencies of collectors were numerically calculated with the use of the two-flux radiation model. Based on the theoretical results, an experimental solar collector was designed and constructed. Experimental results under various conditions show that the daily efficiencies are over 60% in general and agree well with the theoretically calculated ones.

적외선 영상은 야간에 표적의 탐지가 가능하여 보완과 감시분야에 활용도가 높다. 그러나 가시광선 영상에 비하여 해상도가 낮고 잡음의 영향이 크다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 적외선 영상의 표적을 분할하는 방법을 연구한다. 표적을 포함하는 다수의 관심영역(Region of Interest)을 다단계 분할 방법을 이용하여 추출하고 관심영역을 입력영상으로 다단계 분할방법을 다시 적용하여 표적을 분할한다. 다단계 분할 방법의 각 단계는 가우시안 혼합모델의 파라미터를 초기화 하고 추정하는 k-means 클러스터링(Clustering)과 EM(Expectation-Maximization) 알고리즘과 추정된 사후확률을 이용하여 각 화소의 클러스터를 결정하는 단계로 구성된다. 본 논문에서 추출된 관심영역을 선택하고 통합하는 방법을 제안한다. 관심영역의 통합은 근접한 모든 관심영역의 윈도우를 포함하도록 이루어진다. 실험에서는 야간의 보행자로부터 획득한 적외선 영상에 제안된 방법을 적용하고 다른 분할 방법과 비교하여 제안한 방법이 우수함을 보인다.
