The key development issues in the flexible displays are TFT backplane technology for their various applications, which requires competitive device performance as well as its low temperature process. In this paper, with shortly reviewing recent flexible display development status, we describe technical trends of low-temperature a-Si TFTs. Our TFTs show good device characteristics enough to apply LCD and electrophoretic display.

Good mechanical properties of thin-film transistors on plastic substrates are an essential parameter in the development of robust flexible displays. In this paper, a careful investigation is carried out on TFT backplane on plastic substrates under cyclic bending conditions. Bending modes of tensile and compressive as well as parallel and perpendicular orientation-dependent bending of channel have been analyzed carefully. This analysis will be helpful in knowing the electro-mechanical performance boundaries of the TFT devices so as to determine the bending limitations of our flexible displays.

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si:H TFTs) were fabricated on a flexible metal substrate at $150\;^{\circ}C$. To increase the stability of the flexible a-Si:H TFTs, they were thermally annealed at $230\;^{\circ}C$. The field effect mobility was reduced because of the strain in a- Si:H TFT under thermal annealing.

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film transistors were fabricated on a flexible metal substrate. A negative voltage at a floated gate can be induced by a negative substrate bias through a capacitor between the substrate and gate electrode. This can recover the shifted-threshold voltage to an original value.

We have successfully developed the high performance flexible thin film diode device for flexible plastic film LCD. For flexible LCD, TFD device must be normally operated under any deformation state. Two type devices, Ti/Ta$_2$O$\sub$5//Ta and Al/Ta$_2$O$\sub$5//Al were fabricated and the symmetry and reliability of those were estimated under various measurement conditions including severely bending states.

A flexible reflective cholesteric liquid crystal display (ChLCD) is fabricated on plastic substrates by using the pixel isolation method. The polymer walls between pixels and the polymer layers in the pixels are formed by two-step UV irradiation. Electro-optical response of the ChLCD with polymer wall and layer is studied and compared with conventional bistable ChLCD cells.

We have investigated the electro-optical (EO) performances of the flexible liquid crystal display (LCD) on twisted nematic (TN) mode according to variation of cell gap in comparison with glass LCD. There were four kinds of cells which were having cell gaps of 3$\mu$m, 4$\mu$m and 5$\mu$m, especially the lowest 2$\mu$m on flexible and glass substrates separately. The EO performances of the flexible cells on the rubbed potyimide (PI) were almost the same those of glass cells. The response time of flexible cells was shorter than that of glass cells but the alignment of liquid crystal (LC) of flexible cells was weaker than that of glass cells. The residual DC of flexible cells was on the increase like that of glass cells in compliance with lowering cell gap.

We have investigated the EO characteristics generation of pretilt angle for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with photoalignment method on three kinds of photopolymer surfaces using polymer substrates. The LC homogeneous alignment were observed on the PMI3CA (N-(phenyl)maleimide with 3-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) and PMIF (N-(phenyl)maleimide including fluoro cinnamoyl group). However, the homeotropic alignment on the PMI5CA(N-(phenyl)maleimide with 5-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) was obtained. Also, EO characteristics of the flexible photoaligned TN-LCD using PMIF surface are better than that of the flexible TN-LCD using PMI3CA surface. Also, the stable EO performances of flexible photoaligned VA-LCD using the PMI5CA surface was observed.

최근 휴대용 정보전자기기의 비약적인 사용의 증가는 충격에 보다 강한 디스플레이에 대한 연구를 발전시키는 계기가 되었다. 일부 제조회사에서 AMOLED를 사용한 디스플레이에서 유연한 특성을 가진 제품을 선보이고 있으나, 그 사용량에 있어서 압도적으로 많은 부분을 차지하고 있는 것은 LCD 이다. 특히 LCD는 구조적인 문제로 인하여 반드시 후면광원을 사용하여야 하는데, 면발광형식의 조광장치를 얇은 두께로 구현하는데 사용되는 것이 아크릴 재질의 도광판이다. 본 연구에서는 유연하지 않은 메틸메타아크릴레이트에 부틸 아크릴레이트 고무계열의 합성재료를 첨가하여 유연성을 유지하고, 투과율을 90%까지 상승시킨 KURARITY 라는 재질을 사용한 패턴의 설계 및 성형 결과를 통해서 유연한 후면광원의 가능성을 평가하는데 주력하였다. 평가 결과 기존의 광원과 동일한 수준의 밝기 및 휘도 균일도를 얻을 수 있었다.

We have proposed novel bonding technique of substrates for developing the flexible LCD with high quality. The gel type mixture of agarose and UV curable epoxy developed to obtain tight bonding ability and enhanced electro-optical characteristic simultaneously. This technique can be used to roll-to-roll process for fabricating the flexible LCDs.
