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.

리튬 금속 음극은 낮은 환원 전위, 고에너지 밀도로 인해 흑연을 대체할 차세대 음극재로 재조명 받고 있다. 하지만, 충방전시 리튬 금속 표면에서의 반복적인 산화/환원 반응에 의해 리튬 덴드라이트가 형성되며 이로 인해 수명특성이 급격하게 저하되고 더 나아가 내부 단락(Internal Short-circuit)과 같은 안전성 문제로 인해 상용화되기에는 어려운 실정이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구 그룹에서는 리튬 금속에 미세 패턴을 형성하여 전류 밀도를 제어함으로써 덴드라이트 형성을 제어하였으나, 고전류밀도에서는 리튬 덴드라이트의 형성을 완벽하게 제어할 수는 없었다. 본 연구에서는 미세 패턴화된 리튬 금속 전극에 전해질 첨가제 Vinylene Carbonate(VC)를 도입하여 고율 충방전 시 미세 패턴화된 리튬 금속 전극의 덴드라이트 형성 억제를 극대화하고자 하였다. 미세 패턴화된 리튬 금속 전극과 VC 첨가제의 시너지 효과로 인해 높은 전류 밀도에서의 리튬 덴드라이트가 비교적 치밀하게 형성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이로 인해 300사이클 동안 88.3%의 용량유지율을 보였으며, 기존의 미세 패턴화된 리튬 금속 전극에 대비하여 수명특성이 약 6배 이상 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Silver (Ag) grid patterned PET substrates were manufactured by thermal roll-imprinting methods. We coated highly conductive layer (HCL) as a supply electrode on the Ag grid patterned PET in the three kinds of conditions. One was no-HCL without conductive PEDOT:PSS on the Ag grid patterned PET substrate, another was thin-HCL coated with ~50 nm thickness of conductive PEDOT:PSS on the Ag grid PET, and the other was thick-HCL coated with ~95 nm thickness of conductive PEDOT:PSS. These three HCLs in order showed 73.8%, 71.9%, and 64.7% each in transmittance, while indicating $3.84{\Omega}/{\Box}$, $3.29{\Omega}/{\Box}$, and $2.65{\Omega}/{\Box}$ each in sheet resistance. Fabrication of organic solar cells (OSCs) with HCL Ag grid patterned PET substrates showed high power conversion efficiency (PCE) on the thin-HCL device. The thick-HCL device decreased efficiency due to low open circuit voltage ($V_{OC}$). And the Ag grid pattern device without HCL had the lowest energy efficiency caused by quite low short current density ($J_{SC}$).

This paper presents the electro-luminescence (EL) display lamp which is patterned on a curved surface by the pad printing method. The printing methods, including the gravure, screen, flexo, inkjet, and pad printing, have an advantage of one-step direct patterning. However, in general, the printing and semi-conductor process, except pad printing method, cannot be applied for patterning on a curved surface. Thus, in this paper, we used pad printing method for patterning an EL display lamp on a curved surface. The EL display lamp consists of 5 layers: Bottom electrode; Dielectric layer; Phosphor; Transparent electrode; Bus electrode. Finally, we printed EL display lamp on a dish, which has a radius of curvature 80mm. The EL display lamp was driven at AC 200V of 1kHz.

We have developed reflective information display using opposite-charged two particles. An appropriate amount of both the yellow and the black powers are putted between the ITO patterned glass substrate separated with cell gap. The rib maintains the cell gap and prevents the interference between the pixels. When a negative voltage is applied to the upper ITO electrode, the positively charged black powder moves to the upper electrode viewing a black appearance. In case of positive voltage is applied to this electrode white particle is observed. So we analyzed the electrical and optical properties of our charged particle type display panel.

The Patterned vertical alignment (PVA) mode has many advantages such as perfect dark state at the normal direction and wide viewing angle. However, PVA mode needs additional process to pattern electrodes of both substrates and complicated assembly process. Moreover, this mode shows slow response time. To overcome these problems, we use plane shape ITO on top substrate instead of patterned electrode and form proper tilt angle of LC director on the surface while maintaining these original merits. Consequently, we achieve fast response time and improve transmittance.

The display module of PDP consists of a pair of fine electrode patterned panels. For example, in case of 42" PDP, thousands of electrode patterns should be placed on panel, where length, width, and height of each pattern m one meter, 50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and 30${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ respectively. And pitch between patterns is around 200${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Electrode patterns are frequently damaged during the production process, and thus might be broken. These breakage will result in open-circuited electrical characteristic of a pattern and/or open-circuited electrical characteristic between patterns. Therefore, inspection of pattern defects is the inevitable process to improve production yield rate of the panel. In this paper, we first review several types of PDP pattern defects which affects yield-rate of PDP. And, problems of inspecting such pattern defects by a typical inspection method is addressed. Then, a novel inspection method is proposed to overcome the difficulties, where some new components and the algorithm to detect the electrode defects are explored.ored.

We have demonstrated a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) with a single cell gap in a patterned vertically aligned mode. In our configuration, the different electrode structure in a transmissive and a reflective part was suggested to compensate an optical path difference of each region. As the result, the similar electro-optic characteristic of each region was obtained which results in an enhanced performance of the device. Moreover, suggested technique can be highly effective to realize the practical transflective LCD due to the simple fabrication process.

Pentacene thin film transistors fabricated without photolithographic patterning were fabricated on the plastic substrates. Both the organic/inorganic thin films and metallic electrode were patterned by shifting the position of the shadow mask which accompanies the substrate throughout the deposition process. By using an optically transparent zirconium oxide ($ZrO_2$) as a gate insulator and octadecyltrimethoxysilane (OTMS) as an organic molecule for self-assembled monolayer (SAM) to increase the adhesion between the plastic substrate and gate insulator and the mobility with surface treatment, high-performance transistor with field effect mobility $.66\;cm^2$/V s and $I_{on}/I_{off}$>$10^5$ was formed on the plastic substrate. This technique will be applicable to all structure deposited at low temperature and suitable for an easy process for flexible display.
