  • The commercialization of an active matrix e-reader display using E Ink microencapsulated electrophoretic (MEP) ink marked a big step towards comfortable reading over an extended period of time in an electronic book, as the high resolution display, jointly realized by Philips, E Ink and Toppan, has a true paper-like look and feel. Alternative electrophoretic material systems are being developed by SiPix and Bridgestone and progress has been made in the past two years. In this paper, electrophoretic material systems are briefly reviewed, after which the perspectives and challenges of electrophoretic displays are addressed and methods for generating gray tones are presented and discussed.

  • For the micro conductive line, memory device fabrication process use many expensive processes such as manufactur-ing of photo mask, coating of photo resist, exposure, development, and etching. However, direct printing technology has the merits about simple and cost effective processes because nano-metal particles contained inks are directly injective without mask. And also, this technology has the advantage about fabrication of fine pattern line on various substrates such as FPCB, PCB, glass, polymer and so on. In this work, we have fabricated the fine and thick metal pattern line on flexible PCB substrate for the next generation electronic circuit using Ag nano-particles contained ink. To improve the line tolerance on flexible PCB, metal lines are fabricated by sequential prinitng method. Sequential printing method has vari-ous merits about fine, thick and high resolution pattern lines without bulge.

  • e-Printing is a new manufacturing technology for electronic products and is based on traditional printing technology. The electronic products require a large area to facilitate printing and to be economical. A gravure printing system that supports a roll to roll (R2R) manufacturing process can be used to reduce the cost and to achieve the required accuracy. Many factors such as drying method, drying temperature, tension,-printing velocity, ink viscosity, ink conductivity, pattern accuracy, and dot geometry influence the performance of printed electronics. These factors are closely interrelated. The optimum condition for printing must be determined to enhance the performance of the printed electronics. In this study, lines and areas are printed using a gravure printer with conductive ink under different conditions of the above mentioned factors. The results are analyzed to investigate the influence of various factors on the performance of the printed electronics.

  • Gravure printing and manufacturing of advanced electronic components in a way that is going extra hold position. It is to print the electronic components of the rapid productivity improvements as well as cost-saving and environment-friendly industries such as the transition is a big advantage. However the mechanism of gravure is difficult to study scientifically because of high speed and excessively small size of the cell. To approach the mechanism we experimented using gravure printability. The condition of variables of IGT is pressure and velocity. By using Flow-3D simulation software, we built up the theoretical model under the constant variables. Then, we compared the real test with the simulation results. Therefore, it is studied the mechanism of gravure scientifically and it can be analysed the effect of the variable conditions.

  • 나노 구조를 제작은 나노 기술을 기반으로 하는 electronics, optoelectronics, sensing, ultra display등의 여러 분야에서 이용되고 있다. 특히 나노 구조를 갖는 금속 패터닝의 경우 전자빔 리소 그래피 (electron beam lithography)나 레이저 패터닝(laser patterning)과 같은 방법들이 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 공정이 복잡하고 그로 인해 공정 비용이 많이 든다는 단점이 있었다. 나노 임프린트 리소그래피 기술은 master mold 표면의 나노 패턴을 가열, 가압 공정을 통해 기판 위의 고분자 레지스트 층으로 전사하는 기술이다. 이 기술은 간단한 공정을 통해 나노 패턴을 형성할 수 있는 기술이기 때용에 차세대 나노 패터닝 기술로써 각광받고 있다. 특히 이 기술은 레지스트 층과의 직접적인 접촉을 통해 나노 패턴을 형성하기 때문에 다양한 방법을 통해 기능성 나노 패턴을 직접적으로 형성할 수 있는 가능성을 지니고 있다. 본 연구는 novel meta1의 하나인 Ag 입자가 첨가된 ink solution를 master mold로부터 복제한 PDMS mold를 이용하여 다양한 구조의 나노 패턴을 만드는 방법에 대한 연구이다.

  • Inkjet printing is a non-contact and direct writing associated with a computer. In the industrial field, there have been many efforts to utilize the inkjet printing as a new way of manufacturing, especially for electronic devices. For the application of inkjet printing to electronic field, one of the key factors is exact realization of designed images into printed patterns. In this work, micro patterning for conducting line has been studied using the piezoelectric print head and silver nano ink. Dimensions of printed images have been predicted in terms of print resolution and diameter of a single dot. The predicted and the measured values showed consistent results. Using the results, the design capability for industrial inkjet printing could be achieved.

  • Electronic Ink is a stored data in the form of the handwritten text or the script without converting it into ASCII by handwritten recognition on the pen-based computers and Personal Digital Assistants(PDAs) for supporting natural and convenient data input. One of the most Important issue is to search the electronic ink in order to use it. We proposed and implemented a script matching algorithm for the electronic ink. Proposed matching algorithm separated the input stroke into a set of primitive stroke using the curvature of the stroke curve. After determining the type of separated strokes, it produced a stroke feature vector. And then it calculated the distance between the stroke feature vector of input strokes and one of strokes in the database using the dynamic programming technique. We did various experiments and our algorithm showed high matching rate over 97.7% for only the Korean script and 94% for the data mixed Korean with the Chinese character.

  • The Biosensor biosensor pattern was developed by via an EHD (electro-hydro-dynamics (EHD) patterning process that was performed under atmospheric pressure at room temperature in a single step. The drop diameter was smaller than nozzle diameter and applied high viscosity conductive ink was applied in the EHD patterning method to provide a clear advantage over the piezo and thermal inkjet printing techniques. The Biosensor's biosensor's micro electrode pattern was printed by via a continuous EHD patterning method using 3three- type types of control parameters parameter (input voltage, patterning speed, nozzle pressure). High viscosity (1000 cps) conductive ink with 75 wt% of silver nanoparticles was used for experimentation. The incremental result of impedance of biosensor impedance was measured between the antibody ($10ug{\mu}g/ml$) to spore (0.1 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, and $1ug{\mu}g./ml$) reaction at frequency 493 MHz frequency.

  • As electronic devices become smaller and more integrated, the demand for manufacturing thin, flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs) has increased. Although FPCBs are conventionally manufactured by a photolithography method using dry film resist, this process is complicated, and the mask is specifically designed to obtain the precision of the desired circuit line width. In this regard, manufacturing FPCBs with fine patterns through the direct printing method of photocurable inks has gained growing attention. Since the manufacturing process of FPCBs is based on the direct printing method that includes etching and stripping processes utilizing acid and basic chemicals, controlling the adhesion strength, the etching resistance, and the strippability of photocured inks has drawn a lot of attention for the fabrication of fine patterns through photocurable inks. In this study, acrylic ink with various types and contents of the photoinitiator was prepared, and the curing behavior was analyzed. Also, the adhesion strength, etching resistance, and strippability were analyzed to evaluate the applicability of developed photocurable etching resist inks.
