We have investgated the photoisomerization using light irradiation 8A5H LB film accumulated by monolayer and three layers on an ITO. We determined electrochemical measurement by using cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system, An Ag/AgCl reference electrode, a platinum wire counter electrode and LB film-coated ITO working electrode measured in 0.1mol/L NaClO$_4$ solution. The scan rate was 100mv/s.

The detailed studies regarding to the front and rear panel geometries and optical properties of composed layers were needed to improve the luminance and efficiency. 3-dimensional optical code can be used to analyze the variation of geometries and the changing of optical properties. The visible light distributions and illuminance results were simulated depending on the bus electrode position, ITO geometries and optical properties of dielectric layer. As the ITO area was decreased and the bus electrode was located at the outer part of cell, the illumination was increased. And we could find quantification which is related between dielectric layer and visible light distribution of PDP cell.

Interface dipole energies between interfacial layers with different thicknesses coated on indium tin oxides (ITOs) and 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphtyl)-N-phenyl-amino]biphenyl are determined. After $O_2$ plasma treatment on thick-metal (>4 nm) coated ITO, the work function and interface dipole energy increased. In thin-metal (< 2 nm) coated ITO, no change in the interface dipole energy was found though the work function increased. Thus, the $O_2$ plasma treated thin (< 2 nm) interfacial layer reduced the hole injection barrier.

Photovoltaic effect is confirmed in DSSC fabricated under the common conditions. In upper electrodes, validity of ZnO as new TCO material was investigated and an improvement of characteristics in DSSC was tried by control of process conditions at semiconductive powder layer. ZnO thin film showed very high resistivity, therefore efficiency of solar cell was lower than that of conventional ITO-related material. DSSC characteristics was able to improve by thin blocking layer doposited between the TCO and semiconductor layer.

기존 liquid crystal display(LCD) 공정에서 Indium Tin Oxide(ITO) 투명전극과 폴리이미드 배향막의 러빙 공정은 액정을 정렬하고 전계를 인가하기 위하여 필수적인 공정이다. 하지만 ITO의 증착은 높은 진공을 요구하며, 러빙 공정은 정전기에 의해 소자가 손상될 수 있는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 기존 ITO 투명전극을 대체하기 위하여 PEDOT:PSS와 Multi-wall carbon nanotube(MWNT)를 혼합하여 PEDOT:PSS 나노복합체를 제조하고, 러빙 공정을 대체하기 위하여 나노 주름 구조 몰드를 통한 나노임프린팅을 통하여 박막을 형성함으로써 기존 액정 디스플레이의 투명전극과 배향막 두 가지 박막을 PEDOT:PSS/MWNT 나노복합체 박막 하나만으로 기능하게 하여 공정을 단순화 하였다. 전사된 나노 주름을 따라 액정이 잘 배향됨을 확인하였으며, 이를 기반으로 만들어진 액정 셀에서 박막 내 MWNT의 함량이 높아질수록 박막의 전기전도도가 증가하여 낮은 구동 전압과 빠른 응답 속도를 갖는다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 공정 단순화와 용액공정에 의한 공정 단가 절감, 기존 러빙 공정의 단점을 해결하는데 기여 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

인쇄 및 소결법으로 제조한 Te-rich CdTe 소스를 근접 승화시켜 CdTe막을 Cd 기판 위에 증착하였다. 기판온도, 태양전지의 유효면적, 그리고 CdTD막과 ITO막의 두께를 변화시켜 CdTe 박막제조한 후 CdS/CdTe 태양전지의 광전압 특성을 연구하였다. 최적기판온도와 CdTe 두께는 각각 $600^{\circ}C$와 5-6${\mu}m$이다. 근접승화 동안 기판온도를 변화시키는 경우는 Cds와 접합부에 CdTe의 입자크기를 증가시키기 위하여 CdTe 증착초기에 기판온도를 62$0^{\circ}C$로 유지한 후, 이로 인해 발생될수 있는 핀홀을 줄이기 위하여 $540^{\circ}C$로 낮게 기판의 온도를 떨어뜨린후 기존의 막질을 유지하기 위하여 추가적으로 $620^{\circ}C$에서 어닐링 시키는 "two-wave"온도 곡선을 사용하였을 때 단락전류밀도가 증가하였다. CdTe 막의 두께가 $6\mu\textrm{m}$보다 커지면 CdTe 의 벌크 저항이 커져 태양전지의 피라미터를 감소시켰다. 이때 CdTe 막의 비저항은 3$\times$$10^{4}$$\Omega$cm이었다. 태양전지의 유효면적이 증가함에 따라, 개방 전압은 일정하나 ITO면저항의 증가에 의해 단락 전류밀도와 충실도가 감소하였다. 본 연구에 ITO의 최적 두께는 300-450nm 이었다. 유효면적 0.5$\textrm{cm}^2$에서 9.4%의 효율을 얻을수 있었으며 충실도와 효율 증가를 위해서는 직결저항의 감소가 필수적임을 알았다.

아미노실리케이트로 안정화한 금 콜로이드 용액으로부터 산화인듐주석(ITO) 위에 전해석출법으로 금 나노입자의 박막을 만들고, 이 박막을 순환 전압전류법(CV), 주사전자현미경법(SEM), 자외선-가시선 및 에너지분산 X-선 분광법(EDXS)으로 조사하였다. 박막 위 금 나노입자의 표면덮힘율은 1.2 나노몰/cm2였다. 금 박막을 0.10 M HClO4 용액에 든 0.1mM anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid, disodium 염(AQDS) 용액에 20시간 이상 담가서 AQDS의 자체조립 단막층을 생성하였다. 그 결과 690 nm에서 다중층(AQDS/금박막/ITO)의 새로운 흡수 봉우리가 얻어졌다. 또한, +0.5V에서 -0.5V까지 전위를 변화시키는 시간전류법과 자외선-가시선 분광법으로 다중충의 표면 플라스몬 흡수를 측정하였다. 음의 전위를 걸어주었을 때 550 nm에서 나타나는 최대 표면 플라스몬 흡수띠가 감소하였다. 흡광도의 변화와 AQDS의 표면덮힘율과의 상관관계로부터 AQDS층의 유사용량 표면상태가 음전위를 걸어줄 때 플라스몬 띠의 에너지준위와 연관되어 있음을 알았다.

We have studied stability in organic light-emitting diode depending on buffer layer and cathode. A transparent electrode of indium-tin-oxide(ITO) was used as an anode. An electron injection energy barrier into organic material is different depending on a work function of cathodes. Theoretically, the energy barriers for the electron injection are 1.2 eV, -0.1 eV, and 0.0 eV for Al, LiAl, and LiF/Al at 300 K, respectively. We considered the cases that holes are injected to organic light-emitting diode. The hole injection energy barrier is about 0.7 eV between ITO and TPD without buffer layer. For hole-injection buffer layers of CuPc and PEDOT:PSS, the hole injection energy barriers are 0.4 eV and 0.5 eV, respectively. When the buffer layer of CuPc and PEDOT:PSS is existed, we observed the effects of hole injection energy barrier, and a reduction of operating-voltage. However, in case of PVK buffer layer, the hole injection energy barrier becomes high(1.0 eV). Even though the operating voltage becomes high, the efficiency is improved. A device structure for optimal lifetime condition is ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TPD/$Alq_3$/LiAl at an initial luminance of $300cd/m^2$.

Recently, flexibility is one of the hottest issues in the field of electronic devices. For flexible displays or solar cells, a development of transparent conductive electrodes (TCEs) with flexibility, bendability and foldability is an essential element. Hundreds of nanometers indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films have been widely used and commercialized as a transparent electrode, but their brittleness make them difficulty to apply flexible electronics. Many researchers have been studying for flexible TCEs such as a few layers of graphene sheets, carbon nanotube networks, conductive polymer films and combinations among them. Although gained flexibility, their transmittance and resistivity have not reached those of commercialized ITO films. Metal grids electrode cannot act as TCEs only, but they can be used to lower the resistance of TCEs with few losses of transmittance. However, the possibility of device shortage will be rise at the devices with metal grids because a surface flatness of TCEs may be deteriorated when metal grids are introduced using conventional methods. In our research, we have developed hybrid TCEs, which combined tens of nanometers ITO film and metal grids which are embedded in flexible substrate. They show $13{\Omega}$/${\Box}f$ sheet resistance with 94% of transmittance. Moreover, the sheet resistance was maintained up to 1 mm of bending radius. Also, we have verified that flexible organic light emitting diodes and organic solar cells with the TCEs showed similar performances compared to commercial ITO (on glass substrate) devices.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic thin films have attracted lots of interests in large-area light-emitting display. One of the problems of such device is a lifetime, where a degradation of the cell is possibly due to an organic layer's thickness, morphology and interface with electrode. In this study, light-emitting organic electroluminescent devices were fabricated using Alq$_3$(8-hydroxyquinolinate aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-[1-1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine).Where Alq$_3$ is an electron-transport and emissive layer, TPD is a hole-transport layer. The cell structure is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and the cell is fabricated by vacuum evaporation method. In a measurement of current-voltage characteristics, we obtained a turn-on voltage at about 9 V. And we used other buffer layer of PPy(Polypyrrole) with ITO/PPy/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al structure. We observed a surface morphology by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy), UV/visible absorption spectrum, and PL(Photoluminescence) spectrum. We obtained the UV/visible absorption peak at 358nm in TPD and at 359nm in Alq$_3$, and at 225nm and the PL peaks at 410nm in TPD and at 510nm in Alq$_3$ and at 350nm. We also studied EL spectrum in the cell structure of ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and ITO/PPy/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al and we observed the EL spectrum peak at 510nm from our cell
