  • TCO(Transparent Conducting Oxide) on flat glass is used in thin-film photovoltaic cell, flat-panel display. Nowadays, Corning(R) Willow Glass(R), known as flexible substrate, has attracted much attention due to its many advantages such as reliable roll-to-roll glass processing, high-quality flexible electronic devices, high temperature process. Also, it can be an alternative to flexible polymer substrates which have their poor stability and degradation of electrical and optical qualities. For application on willow glass, the flexibility, electrical, optical properties can be greatly influenced by the TCO thin film thickness due to the inherent characterization of thin film in nanoscale. It can be expected that while thick TCO layer causes poor transparency, its sheet resistance become low. Also, rarely reports were focusing on the influence of flexible properties by varying TCO thickness on flexible glass. Therefore, it is very important to optimize TCO thickness on flexible Willow glass. In this study, Ti-ZnO thin films, with different thickness varied from 0 nm to 50 nm, were deposited on the flexible willow glass by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The flexible, electrical and optical properties were investigated, respectively. Also, these properties of Ti-doped ZnO thin films were compared with un-doped ZnO thin film. Based on the results, when Ti-ZnO thin films thickness increased, resistivity decreased and then saturated; transmittance decreased. The Figure of Merit (FoM) and flexibility was the highest when Ti-ZnO thickness was 40nm. The flexible, electrical and optical properties of Ti-ZnO thin films were better than ZnO thin film at the same thickness.

  • 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 report novel and simple structure of supercapacitors fabricated by using flexible glass fibre separators as templates. This method does not require separate electrodes, binders and high pressure/temperature to build the supercapacitor unit cells as required by the conventional technology. The supercapacitors were fabricated by drop-casting solution mixtures of carbonaceous active materials/gel electrolytes onto two sides of glass fibre separators. Two carbonaceous materials (nanoscaled activated carbons, multi-walled carbon nanotubes) were investigated as electrode materials. The electrochemical measurements reveal that the separatorbased supercapacitors using ACs successfully demonstrated significant mass specific capacitance ($22.3F\;g^{-1}$) and energy density ($9.7Wh\;kg^{-1}$), indicating this method can be useful in fabricating flexible, wearable and stretchable energy storage devices in more straightforward and cost-effective way than current technology.

  • Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) based TFT process has been studied at the maximum temperature of 15$0^{\circ}C$ with 25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick flexible and adhesive tape type polyimide foil substrate, which has benefit on handling a rugged, flexible plastic substrate trough sticking simply it to glass. This paper summarize the process procedure of the TFT on the plastic substrate and shows its electrical characteristics in comparison with glass substrate using primarily the ON/OFF current ratio and the field effect mobility as the quality criterion. The a-SiN:H coating layer played an important role in decreasing surface roughness of plastic substrate, so leakage current of TFT was decreased and mobility was increased. The results show that high quality a-Si:H TFTs can be fabricated on the plastic substrates through coating a rough plastic surface with a-SiN:H.

  • In this paper, we proposed flexible T-DMB dipole-shaped antenna that has strength of glass antenna and also has portability and ease of production. The input impedance of antenna according to vehicle body-effect was considered in order to install the antenna on the top of the front window. Installation position of on-glass antennas are changeable defends on driver, so we proposed Interdigital capacitor in feeding point to achieve matching characteristic with no position limit. The measurement result showed good return loss characteristic-below -6 dB in the T-DMB frequency band and maintained fixed resonant frequency.

  • This study evaluated the mechanical properties and alkali silica reaction of mortar according to the mixing ratio of waste glass. As a result, as the mixing ratio of the waste glass increased, the compressive and flexible strength of the mortar decreased due to the slip of aggregate, and the alkali-silica reaction(ASR) increased. So, it is considered that research is needed to prevent slip and ASR of the waste glass aggregate in order to use the waste glass as a fine aggregate for concrete.

  • 본 연구는 Roll-to-Roll Sputtering 장비를 사용하여 제작된 Flexible ITO electrode 필름의 방사선 검출기로의 적용가능성을 알아보기 위해 기존의 Glass ITO electrode의 전기적 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 본 연구는 Flexible ITO electrode와 Glass ITO electrode을 하부전극으로 형성하고, 최근에 X-ray 변환체로 활발히 연구되고 있는 Powder 형태의 반도체물질인 HgI2 와 PbI2를 Binder와 일정한 비율로 혼합하여 3-Rolls-Miller를 사용하여 Powder를 일정한 미세크기로 만들고, 대면적 제작이 용이한 Screen-Printing method을 이용하여 시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 필름은 하부전극의 종류에 따른 X-ray 입사 후의 전기적신호의 차이를 측정하고, HgI2와 PbI2 중 Flexible ITO electrode와 더욱 효율적으로 반응하여 기존의 Glass ITO electrode를 대체할 수 있는 전극을 발견하여 진단용 의료영상의 왜곡 현상을 제거할 수 있는 Flexible 방사선 검출기의 제작의 초석을 제공하는 연구를 목적으로 한다. SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) 통하여 반도체 물질의 결정구조와 크기를 알아보았고, 하부 전극의 종류에 따른 전기적 신호검출을 위해 제작된 필름의 암전류(Dark current) 와 민감도(Sensitivity)를 측정한 후, SNR (Signal -to- Noise)을 계산하여 평가하였다.
