In this paper, we demonstrate polymer thin-film transistors (TFTs) on a paper-based flexible substrate. As a substrate, commercially available photo-paper is used with Parylene coating. The parylene layer enables conventionally used wet chemical process and vacuum deposition processes for electrodes and gate insulator. As an active channel layer, we used poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) which is solution process. Field effect mobility up to $(0.06 {\pm} 0.02) cm^2/Vs$ and on/off ratio of $10^3 {\~}10^4$ are achieved on a photo-paper.

In this report, we demonstrate a high performance polymer thin-film transistor fabricated on a paper substrate. As a water barrier layer, parylene was coated on the paper substrate by using vacuum deposition process. Using poly (3-hexylthiophene) as an active layer, a polymer thin-film transistor with field-effect of up to 0.086 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and on/off ratio of $10^4$ was achieved. The fabrication of polymer thin-film transistor built on a cheap paper substrate is expected to open a channel for future applications in flexible and disposable electronics with extremely low-cost.

We have presented a comprehensive study on threshold voltage $(V_{th})$ control of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with dual-gate structure. The fabrication of dual-gate pentacene OTFTs using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposited (PEALD) 150 nm thick $Al_2O_3$ as a bottom gate dielectric and 300 nm thick parylene or PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_2O_3$ as both a top gate dielectric and a passivation layer is reported. The $V_{th}$ of OTFT with 300 nm thick parylene as a top gate dielectric is changed from 4.7 V to 1.3 V and that with PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_2O_3$ as a top gate dielectric is changed from 1.95 V to -9.8 V when the voltage bias of top gate electrode is changed from -10 V to 10 V. The change of $V_{th}$ of OTFT with dual-gate structure has been successfully understood by an analysis of electrostatic potential.

The Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te film was produced by thermal evaporation for the flat-panel X-ray detector. The crystal structure and the surface morphology of poly crystalline Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te film were examined using XRD and SEM, respectively. The leakage current and X-ray sensitivity of the fabricated films were measured to analyze the X-ray response characteristic of Zn in a polycrystalline CdZnTe thin film. The leakage current and the output charge density of Cd$\_$0.7/Zn$\_$0.3/Te thin film were measured to 0.3 1nA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 260 pC/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 2.5 V/$\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. Experimental results showed that the increase of Zn doping rates in Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te detectors reduced the leakage current and improved the X-ray sensitivity significantly. The leakage current was drastically diminished by the formation of thin parylene layer in the Cd$\_$0.7/Zn$\_$0.3/Te detector.

In this paper, a new structure and fabrication method for the wafer level package(WLP) is presented. A packaged VLSI chip is encapsulated by a parylene(which is a low k material) layer as a dielectric layer and is molded by SUB photo-epoxy with dielectric constant of 3.0 at 100 MHz. The electrical parameters (R, L, C) of package traces are extracted by using the Maxwell 3-D simulator. Based on HSPICE simulation results, the proposed wafer level package can operate for frequencies up to 20GHz.

In general, organic TFTs are comprised of four components: gate electrode, gate dielectric, organic active semiconductor layer, and source and drain contacts. The TFT current, in turn, is typically determined by channel length and width, carrier field effect mobility, gate dielectric thickness and permittivity, contact resistance, and biasing conditions. More recently, a number of techniques and processes have been introduced to the fabrication of OTFT circuits and displays that aim specifically at reduced fabrication cost. These include microcontact printing for the patterning of metals and dielectrics, the use of photochemically patterned insulating and conducting films, and inkjet printing for the selective deposition of contacts and interconnect pattern. In the fabrication of organic TFTs, microcontact printing has been used to pattern gate electrodes, gate dielectrics, and source and drain contacts with sufficient yield to allow the fabrication of transistors. We were fabricated a pentacene OTFTs on flexible PEN film. Au/Cr was used for the gate electrode, parylene-c was deposited as the gate dielectric, and Au/Cr was chosen for the source and drain contacts; were all deposited by ion-beam sputtering and patterned by microcontact printing and lift-off process. Prior to the deposition of the organic active layer, the gate dielectric surface was treated with octadecyltrichlorosilane(OTS) from the vapor phase. To complete the device, pentacene was deposited by thermal evaporation and patterned using a parylene-c layer. The device was shown that the carrier field effect mobility, the threshold voltage, the subthreshold slope, and the on/off current ratio were improved.

Previous valves have initial gap problem, high voltage or high pressure problem. In this paper, various micro valves with free floating structure have been fabricated and tested to solve the initial gap and high pressure problems. The paper presents how to etch Parylene-C which is a valve cap material without A1 mask layer. The maximum flow-rate of fabricated micro valve is$118{\mu\ell}$/min with $370{\mu}m$ orifice size and the leakage at the initial and reverse pressure is not observed.

The development of digital x-ray detector has been extensively progressed for the application of various medical modalities. In this study, we introduce a new hybrid-type x-ray detector to improve problems of a conventional direct or indirect digital x-ray image technology, which composed of multi-layer structure using a CaWO$_4$ phosphor and amorphous selenium (a-Se) photoconductor. The leakage current of our detector was found to be ∼180 pA/cm$^2$ at 10 V/m, which was significantly reduced than that of a single a-Se detector. The x-ray sensitivity was measured as the value of 4230 pC/cm$^2$/mR at 10 V/m. We found that the parylene thin film between a CaWO$_4$ phosphor and an a-Se layer acts as an insulator to prevent charge injection from indium thin oxide (ITO) electrode into an a-Se layer under applied bias.

At present, the study of direct digital X-ray detector and indirect digital X-ray detector proceed actively. But it needs high thickness and high voltage in selenium for high ionization rate. Therefore, we carried out the study of electric characteristics of a-Se with additive ratio of Iodine in drafting study for developing Hybrid X -ray Sensor for complementing direct digital X -ray detector and indirect digital X-ray detector in this paper. On this, there are formed Amorphous selenium multi-layers by sticking phosphor layer$(Gd_{2}O_{2}S(Eu^{2+}))$ using optical adhesives of EFIRON Co. Amorphous selenium multi-layers having dielectric layer(parylene) has characteristics of low dark-current, high X-ray sensitivity. So we can acquired a enhanced signal to noise ratio. We make Amorphous selenium multi-layers with $30{\mu}m$ thickness on glass.
