디스플레이 분야에 스마트 팩토리란 작업 자동화 뿐만 아니라 기존의 공정관리, 이동설비, 공정이상, 결함 분류 등에 AI/BIG DATA 기술을 이용한 보다 효율적인 디스플레이 제조를 의미한다. 과거 디스플레이 제조 과정에서 불량이 나오면 결함 분류, 공정 이상에 대한 대처가 시시각각 달랐기 때문에 이에 대한 많은 시간 소모가 발생했었다. 하지만 디스플레이 제조 분야는 고도화된 공정 장비를 이용해야 하고 불량 원인을 신속하게 파악해 수율을 올리는 것이 디스플레이 제조 산업의 경쟁력이다. 본 논문에는 스마트 팩토리 AI/BIG DATA 기술을 디스플레이 제조에 접목한 사례들에 대해 정리해 보고 기존 방법 대비 어떤 장점이 도출 되어질 수 있는지에 대해 처음으로 분석해 보고자 한다. 이를 통해 향후 AI/BIG DATA를 이용한 디스플레이 제조 분야에 보다 향상된 스마트 팩토리 개발을 위한 사전지식으로 활용하고자 한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to get a meaningful information for improving manufacturing quality of the products before they are produced in client's manufacturing process. Methods: A variety of data mining techniques have been being used for wide range of industries from process data in manufacturing factories for quality improvement. One application of those is to get meaningful information from process data in manufacturing factories for quality improvement. In this paper, the failure rate at client's manufacturing process is predicted by using the parameters of the characteristics of the product based on PCA (Principle Component Analysis) and regression analysis. Results: Through a case study, we proposed the predicting methodology and regression model. The proposed model is verified through comparing the failure rates of actual data and the estimated value. Conclusion: This study can provide the guidance for predicting the failure rate on the manufacturing process. And the manufacturers can prevent the defects by confirming the factor which affects the failure rate.

The image processing methods are widely used in many industrial fields to detect defections in inspection devices. In this study an image processing method was conducted for the detection of abnormal pixels in a OLED(Organic Light Emitting Diode) type panel which is used for small size displays. The display quality of an OLED device is dependent on the pixel formation quality. So, among the so many pixels, to find out the faulty pixels is very important task in manufacturing processing or inspection division. We used a line scanning type BW(Black & White) camera which has very high resolution characteristics to acquire an image of display pixel patterns. And the various faulty cases in pixel abnormal patterns are considered to detect abnormal pixels. From the results of the research, the normal BW pixel image could be restored to its original color pixel.

As the function of a product is advanced and the process is refined, the yield in the fine manufacturing process becomes an important variable that determines the cost and quality of the product. Since a fine manufacturing process generally produces a product through many steps, it is difficult to find which process or equipment has a defect, and thus it is practically difficult to ensure a high yield. This paper presents the system architecture of how to build a smart manufacturing system to analyze the big data of the manufacturing plant, and the equipment factor analysis methodology to increase the yield of products in the smart manufacturing system. In order to improve the yield of the product, it is necessary to analyze the defect factor that causes the low yield among the numerous factors of the equipment, and find and manage the equipment factor that affects the defect factor. This study analyzed the key factors of abnormal equipment that affect the yield of products in the manufacturing process using the data mining technique. Eventually, a methodology for finding key factors of abnormal equipment that directly affect the yield of products in smart manufacturing systems is presented. The methodology presented in this study was applied to the actual manufacturing plant to confirm the effect of key factors of important facilities on yield.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate types and characteristics of chemical substances used in LCD(Liquid crystal display) panel manufacturing process. Methods: The LCD panel manufacturing process is divided into the fabrication(fab) process and module process. The use of chemical substances by process was investigated at four fab processes and two module processes at two domestic TFT-LCD(Thin film transistor-Liquid crystal display) panel manufacturing sites. Results: LCD panels are manufactured through various unit processes such as sputtering, chemical vapor deposition(CVD), etching, and photolithography, and a range of chemicals are used in each process. Metal target materials including copper, aluminum, and indium tin oxide are used in the sputtering process, and gaseous materials such as phosphine, silane, and chlorine are used in CVD and dry etching processes. Inorganic acids such as hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid are used in wet etching process, and photoresist and developer are used in photolithography process. Chemical substances for the alignment of liquid crystal, such as polyimides, liquid crystals, and sealants are used in a liquid crystal process. Adhesives and hardeners for adhesion of driver IC and printed circuit board(PCB) to the LCD panel are used in the module process. Conclusions: LCD panels are produced through dozens of unit processes using various types of chemical substances in clean room facilities. Hazardous substances such as organic solvents, reactive gases, irritants, and toxic substances are used in the manufacturing processes, but periodic workplace monitoring applies only to certain chemical substances by law. Therefore, efforts should be made to minimize worker exposure to chemical substances used in LCD panel manufacturing process.

Atmospheric pressure plasma equipment was successfully applied to the flip chip BGA manufacturing process to improve the uniformity of flux printing process. The problem was characterized as shrinkage of the printed flux layer due to insufficient surface energy of the flip chip BGA substrate. To improve the hydrophilic characteristics of the flip chip BGA substrate, remote DBD type atmospheric pressure plasma equipment was developed and adapted to the flux print process. The equipment enhanced the surface energy of the substrate to reasonable level and made the flux be distributed over the entire flip chip BGA substrate uniformly. This research was the first adaptation of the atmospheric pressure plasma equipment to the flip chip BGA manufacturing process and a lot of possible applications are supposed to be extended to other PCB manufacturing processes such as organic cleaning, etc.

Since Samsung SDI and Sony started mass production of AM-OLED display for mobile/TV applications, OLED technology has emerged as leading candidate among the many technologies under development for next generation Flat panel displays. P-OLED (Polymer Organic Lighting Emitting Diode) technology, a class of OLED, is gathering momentum towards commercialization. P-OLED technology has made tremendous progress in terms of display performance (including life time, efficiency and color gamut) and in the maturity of ink jet printing process and equipment. In order to get into the mobile/TV application market successfully, P-OLED display technology must meet the following display makers' requirements: (1) P-OLED Display Performance in terms of lifetime, efficiency, and color coordinates, (2) Low Cost Manufacturing Technology such as "Solution Processable Printing Technology". P-OLED technology has already overcome many of the hurdles to mass manufacturing. In this paper, the latest developments in ink jet printing technology, including P-OLED material performance, is discussed.
