Replacing conventional Si diodes with SiC diodes in Si insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules is advantageous as it can reduce power losses significantly. Also, the fast switching nature of the SiC diode will allow Si IGBTs to operate at their full high-switching-speed potential, which at present conventional Si diodes cannot do. In this work, the electrical test results for Si-IGBT/4HSiC-Schottky hybrid substrates (hybrid SiC substrates) are presented. These substrates are built for two voltage ratings, 1.7 kV and 3.3 kV. Comparisons of the 1.7 kV and the 3.3 kV Si-IGBT/Si-diode substrates (Si substrates) at room temperature ($20^{\circ}C$, RT) and high temperature ($H125^{\circ}C$, HT) have shown that the switching losses in hybrid SiC substrates are miniscule as compared to those in Si substrates but necessary steps are required to mitigate the ringing observed in the current waveforms. Also, the effect of design variations on the electrical performance of 1.7 kV, 50 A diodes is reported here. These variations are made in the active and termination regions of the device.

An UV/thermal hybrid nanoimprint lithography system was designed and implemented for the pattern transfer to flexible substrates. This system can utilize a plate stamp, roll stamp, and film stamp. For all cases of using those stamps, this system is also switchable an UV or thermal nanoimprint lithography mode. This paper shows how to design the heating and UV curing plates and proposes how to change them easily. Because the pressure condition and the speed of the press roller varies by the characteristics of the stamp and substrate, all the parameters related to the nanoimprint lithography have to adjustable. Some transferred patterns are shown in this paper to verify the performance of the hybrid nanoimprint lithography system. The flexible substrates with nano-scale patterns on them will be key components for next generation technologies such as flexible displays, bendable semi-conductors, and solar cells.

We present the effect of a coupling agent on the optoelectrical properties of few-walled carbon nanotube (FWCNT)/epoxy resin hybrid films fabricated on glass substrates. The FWCNT/epoxy resin mixture solution was successfully prepared by the direct mixing of a $HNO_3$-treated FWCNT solution and epoxy resin. FWCNT/binder hybrid films containing different amounts of the coupling agent were then fabricated on UV-ozone-treated glass substrates. To determine the critical binder content ($X_c$), the effects of varying the binder content in the FWCNT/silane hybrid films on their optoelectrical properties were investigated. In this system, the $X_c$ value was approximately 75 wt%. It was found that above $X_c$, the coupling agent effectively decreased the sheet resistance of the films. From microscopy images, it was observed that by adding the coupling agent, more uniform FWCNT/binder films were formed.

최근 레이저를 이용하여 전자 소자 및 모듈을 절단하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 레이저를 이용하여 LED 모듈을 초고속 절단하기 위한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 기존의 다이싱(dicing) saw의 절단 속도를 훨씬 능가하는 100 mm/s의 초고속 레이저 절단의 가능성을 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 LED 모듈의 구성 재료인 copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판을 제작하여 레이저 절단 후, 절단면의 표면 특성, 표면조도, 굽힘 강도를 다이싱 saw를 이용하여 절단한 샘플과 비교하였다. 복합 기판에 대한 최적의 레이저 절단 조건을 찾기 위하여, 세라믹 및 구리 단일 기판의 레이저 절단을 통하여 다양한 레이저 공정 조건들에 대한 영향 검토하였다. 절단면의 표면 특성이 가장 좋은 최적의 레이저 절단 조건은 Ar 보조 가스의 사용, 높은 레이저 파워 및 높은 보조 가스의 압력이었다. Copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판에 대하여 레이저 절단과 다이싱 saw로 절단한 기판의 절단면을 비교한 결과, 레이저로 절단된 기판이 다이싱 saw 절단에 비하여 표면이 거칠고 표면 특성이 약간 나쁘다. 레이저 절단면의 평균 표면조도는 약 $9{\mu}m$ 이며, 다이싱 saw로 절단된 절단면의 표면조도는 약 $4{\mu}m$ 이었다. 그러나 다이싱 절단의 절단 속도(3 mm/s)를 고려하면 레이저 절단면의 표면 morphology가 비교적 균일하고, 표면조도도 다이싱 절단의 경우와 큰 차이가 없기 때문에 어느 정도 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다고 판단된다. 또한 레이저 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도가 다이싱으로 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도보다 동등하거나 약간 열세이었다. 그러나 향후 레이저의 절단 조건이 좀 더 최적화된다면 LED 모듈의 초고속 레이저 절단이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Inorganic-organic hybrid multilayers were formed on the plastic substrate to enhance the barrier properties of substrate to water vapor and oxygen transport. Plasma pretreatment of substrate with $Ar/O_2$ lead to adhesion improvement and the densification of inorganic layer on the substrates. Combination of $SiO_xN_y$ layer and silanenanoclay composite layer offered quite good barrier properties (WVTR and OTR) to PES substrate.

Thick inorganic-organic hybrid films were prepared on ITO-coated glass substrates by the electrophoretic sol-gel deposition of polyphenylsilsesquioxane particles. The morphology of the deposited films changed from the aggregate of the spherical particles to monolith by heat treatment at temperatures higher than $200^{\circ}C$. Transparency of the films was significantly improved accompanied by the morphological change of the particles. The degree of the morphological change was governed by two factors; maximum heat treatment temperature and heating rate. Transparent thick films of ca. 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ in thickness were obtained only by heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2h with rapid heating from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$. These films obtained were strongly adhered to the ITO-coated glass substrates and has a very smooth surface.

The sol-gel methodology has been applied successfully in the synthesis of a novel hybrid coating based on dimethoxymethyl-n-octadecylsilane precursor. The newly synthesized parent coating was functionalized further with two commercially-available corrosion-inhibitive pigments Moly-$white^{(R)}$ 101-ED and Hfucophos $Zapp^{(R)}$, applied to mild steel panels, and immersed continuously in 3.5% NaCl electrolytic solution for 288 h. The corrosion protection performance of the prepared functional coatings was evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and DC polarization techniques. An enhancement in the barrier properties has been revealed from the electrochemical characterization data of the hybrid films, in comparison with untreated mild steel substrates following long-term immersion in 3.5% NaCl. The corrosion resistance properties of the newly developed coatings over mild steel substrates found to be largely dependent on the type of the loaded inhibitive pigment in which the Moly-white inhibitor has a positive impact on the corrosion protection performance of the parent coating, while an opposite behavior was observed upon mixing the base polymeric matrix with the commercially-available Zapp corrosion inhibitor.

We present highly transparent liquid crystal displays (LCDs) using hybrid films based on carbon nanomaterials, metal grid, and indium-tin-oxide (ITO) grid. Carbon based nanomaterials are used as transparent electrodes because of high transmittance. Despite of their high transmittance they have relatively high sheet resistance. To solve this problem, we applied grid and made hybrid conductive films based on carbon nanomaterials. Conventional photolithography processes were used to make a grid pattern of metal and ITO. To fabricate transparent conductive films, carbon nanotube (CNT) ink was spin coated on the grid pattern. The transparency of the conductive film was controlled by shape and size of the grid pattern and the thickness of CNT films. The optical transmittance of CNT-based hybrid films is 92.2% and sheet resistance is also reduced to $168{\Omega}/square$. These substrates were used for the fabrication of typical twisted nematic (TN) LCD cells. From the characteristics of LCD devices such as transmittance, operating voltage, voltage holding ratio our devices were comparable to those of pristine ITO substrates. The result shows that the hybrid conductive films based on carbon nanomaterials could be alternative of ITO for the highly transparent LCDs.

We report all-ink-jet printed inorganic/organic hybrid TFTs on plastic substrates. We have investigated the optimal printing conditions to make uniform patterned layers of gate electrode, dielectrics, source/drain electrodes, and semiconductor as a coplanar type TFT in a successive manner. All ink-jet printed devices have good mechanical flexibility and current modulation characteristic even when bent.

Conventional hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal display (HAN-LCD) has several advantages on low operating voltage, fast response time and rubbing free on one substrate. We have fabricated a new hybrid aligned nematic display driven by fringe field. The new device exhibits much wider viewing: angle than that of the conventional HAN mode, owing to almost in-plane rotation of the LC director. Furthermore, we have developed the device that reveals more efficient electro-optic characteristics by placing common electrode on top and bottom substrates. In this paper, the electro-optic characteristics of the novel cell are investigated.
