In the fabrication of high performance Blue organic light emitting diode, 2-TNATA[4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine] as hole injection material and NPB[N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine] as hole transport material were deposited on the ITO (Indium Tin Oxide)/Glass substrate by vacuum evaporation. And then, Blue color emission layer was deposited using GDI602 as a host material and GDI691 as a dopant. Finally, small molecule OLED with the structure of ITO/2-TNATA/NPB/GDI602+GDI691/Alq3/LiF/Al was obtained by in-situ deposition of Alq3, LiF and Al as electron transport material, electron injection material and cathode, respectively. Blue OLED fabricated in our experiments showed the color coordinate of CIE(0.14, 0.16) and the maximum luminescence efficiency of 1.06 lm/W at 11 V with the peak emission wavelength of 464 nm.

The electronic structure calculations for organic light-emitting diode-emitting materials were performed using three different methods: r² SCAN-3c, B3LYP-D3/def2-TZVP, and DLPNO-STEOM-CCSD/def2-SVP. These calculations were used to predict structure optimization, molecular orbitals, and excitation properties. Additionally, the differences among the calculation methods were investigated and compared with experimental values to identify the most suitable computational method. The five selected emitting materials include N,N,N',N'-tetraphenyl-anthracene-9,10-diamine, in which diphenyl amines are substituted on an anthracene chromophore, along with other alkyl groups of varying sizes and positions. The qualitative predictions made by the calculations were mostly consistent with the experimental results, and among them, the B3LYP/def2-TZVP method showed the smallest error in absorption wavelength compared to the experimental results, confirming it as the most suitable calculation method.

By an aid of needle coating, we have fabricated a spherical microlens array using poly(methyl methacrylate) for potential applications in light extraction of organic light-emitting diodes. With an attempt to achieve high-density and high-aspect-ratio microlens arrays, we have investigated the coating behaviors by varying the material parameters such as the solute concentration and wettability of the poly(methyl methacrylate) solution and process parameters such as the dwell time of needle near the substrate, retract distance of needle from the substrate, and coating gap between the needle and substrate. Under the optimized coating conditions, it is demonstrated that high-aspect-ratio microlens arrays can be obtained using a coating solution with high solute concentration and a small amount of a hydrophobic solvent. It is found that the diameter and height of microlens array are decreased with increasing poly(methyl methacrylate) concentration, yet the overall aspect ratio is rather enhanced. By the addition of 5 wt% hexylamine in 35 wt% poly(methyl methacrylate) solution, we have achieved a spherical microlens with the height of 7.7 ㎛ and the width of 94.24 ㎛ (the aspect ratio of 0.082). To estimate the capability of light extraction by the microlens array, we have performed ray tracing simulations and demonstrated that the light extraction efficiency of organic light-emitting diode is expected to be enhanced up to 24%.

The size of the OLED material market is expected to grow from $1.1 billion in 2019 to $2.3 billion in 2023, with an average annual sustainable growth of more than 19%. Among the facilities mainly used by OLED material manufacturers, accidents such as fire, explosion, and leakage frequently occur when using filtration equipment, so it is necessary to improve the risk when using filtration equipment. In this study, it was divided into four main processes, namely, assembly and disassembly process, filtration process, wet cake recovery process, and washing process in order to derive the risks associated with the use of filtration equipment. Hazard factors were derived by conducting accident case investigations, preliminary interviews, and surveys. For the analysis of questionnaire results, statistical analysis such as frequency analysis and Pearson chi-square test analysis was performed using SPSS 21, and risk improvement measures were suggested using the analyzed results. It is expected that this study will serve as a basis for dealing with safety and risk factors that may occur as the size of the OLED market expands.

The flexible organic thin film transistor (OTFT) array to use as a switching device for an organic light emitting diode (OLED) was designed and fabricated in the microcontact printing and low-temperature processes. The gate, source, and drain electrode patterns of OTFT were fabricated by microcontact printing which is high-resolution lithography technology using polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) stamp. The OTFT array with dielectric layer and organic active semiconductor layers formed at room temperature or at a temperature tower than $40^{\circ}C$. The microcontact printing process using SAM(self-assembled monolayer) and PDMS stamp made it possible to fabricate OTFT arrays with channel lengths down to even nano size, and reduced the procedure by 10 steps compared with photolithography. Since the process was done in low temperature, there was no pattern transformation and bending problem appeared. It was possible to increase close packing of molecules by SAM, to improve electric field mobility, to decrease contact resistance, and to reduce threshold voltage by using a big dielecric.

OLED has good efficiency of power consumption by having no power consumption from black color as different with LCD. when it has white color, all RGB pixel should be glowing with high power consumption and that can make it has short life time. This paper suggest the way of low power consumption for OLED panel using adaptive luminance enhancement with color compensation and implement it as hardware. This way which is based on luminance information of input image makes converted luminance value from each pixel in real time. There is with using the basic idea of chromaticity reduction algorithm, showing new algorithm of color correction. And performance of proposed method was confirmed by comparing the conventional method in experiments about 48.43% current reduction. The proposed method was designed by Verilog HDL and was verified by using OpenCV and Windows Program.

In this paper, the inorganic-organic thin film encapsulation layer was newly adopted to protect the organic layer from moisture and oxygen. Using the electron beam, Sputter and Spin-Coater system, the various kinds of inorganic and organic thin-films were deposited onto the Ethylene Terephthalate(PET) and their interface properties between organic and inorganic layer were investigated. In this investigation, the SiON and Polyimide(PI) layer showed the most suitable properties. Under these conditions, the WVTR(water vapour transition rate) for PET can be reduced from level of $0.57\;g/m^2{\cdot}day$ (bare subtrate) to $1{\times}10^{-5}\;g/m^2{\cdot}day$ after application of a SiON and Polyimide layer. These results indicates that the SiON/PI/SiON/PI/PET barrier coatings have high potential for flexible organic light-emitting diode(OLED) applications.

Simple and high efficiency blue organic light-emitting diodes with three organic layers of N, N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-[4-(phenyl-m-tolylamino)-phenyl]-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine[DNTPD]/1,1-bis-(di-4-polya-minophenyl)cyclohexane[TAPC]/electron transport material [ET-137] were fabricated and their electroluminescent characteristics were evaluated according to the TAPC thickness variation in a range of $50{\sim}300{\AA}$. Electroluminescence spectra of the devices with structure of DNTPD/TAPC/ET-137 showed all the same central emission wavelengths of 455 nm under an applied voltage of 7V, which were similar with that of the device with ET-137 only. On the other hand, the electroluminescence spectra of the device with structure of DNTPD/ET-137 without TAPC layer showed double emission peaks at the wavelengths of 455 nm and 561 nm under an applied voltage of 7V. In the devices with structure of DNTPD/TAPC/ET-137, single peak blue emission was not maintained in the device with $50{\AA}$-thick TAPC above 8V by the formation of exciplex. In the device with $300{\AA}$-thick TAPC, however, single peak blue emission was maintained until 10 V. According to the thickness increase of TAPC in the fabricated devices, the current density and luminance decreased, but the luminous efficiency and roll-off characteristics were improved.

In this study, a Proton-Transfer Reaction-Time-of-Flight Mass spectrometer (PTR-TOF-MS) was used for the continuous monitoring of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) emitted from semiconductor workplace such as photolithography (PHOTO), flat panel display (FPD), organic light emitting diode (OLED), etching (WET) process. The averaged VOCs mixing ratio in the such workplace, PHOTO was 6.5 ppm, FPH was 6.4 ppm, WET was 2.0 ppm and OLED was 1.3 ppm, respectively. The abundance of VOCs in the workplace were methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) with 2.8 ppm (69%) and acetaldehyde with 0.5 ppm (13.2%). Depending on the semiconductor process characteristics, various VOCs have been observed in the workplace. The VOCs mixing ratio are lower than the workplace regulation standard (TWA), it is necessary to continuously monitor and effectively manage these VOCs.

Poly-Si TFT(Thin Film Transistor) technology are reviewed and discussed. Poly-Si TFTs fabricated on glass using low-temperature process were studied extensively for the application to LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) as well as to OLED(Organic Light Emitting Diode) Display. Currently, one of the application targets of the poly-Si TFT is emphasized on the highly functional SOG(System on Glass). Improvement of device characteristics such as an enhancement of carrier mobility has been studied intensively by enlarging the grain size. Reduction of the voltage and shrinkage of the device size are the trend of AM FPD(Active Matrix Flat Panel Display) as well as of Si LSI, which will arise a peculiar issue of uniformity for the device performance. Some approaches such as nucleation control of the grain seed or lateral grain growth have been tried, so far.
