Photosensitive carbon nanotube (CNT) pastes are explored to develop a CNT field emitter for field emission display (FED) application. We formulated a photosensitive paste including multi-walled CNTs (MWNTs) for screen printing. The photosensitive CNT paste was synthesized by mixing of MWNTs, inorganic fillers (nano metal), organic vehicle, monomers and photo initiator. The CNT paste films were patterned by using backside exposure technique. The CNTs were strongly fixed on a cathode by formation of carbon residue during firing process. For the CNT emitters, current-voltage(I-V) characteristics and images of field emission were evaluated. The emission properties of CNT emitters are dependent on the paste composition. A turn-on electric field for the CNT field emitters is measured to be 1 V/$\mu$m. Additionally, the effect of heat treatment parameter on field emission properties was discussed. The newly formulated photosensitive CNT paste can be potentially applicable to highly reliable CNT field emitters.

Barrier rib for the plasma display panel (PDP) was made by photolithographic process utilizing photosensitive barrier rib paste. The barrier rib paste was prepared by first dissolving poly(MMA-co-MAA) binder polymer in butyl carbitol(BC) solvent at 15 wt% concentration. To this solution were added a mixture of functional monomers , Irgacure 651 photoinitiator, and barrier rib power and then the whole mixture was dispersed in the three roll mill for 2 hour. The effect of component and concentration of photosensitive barrier rib paste was studied. After optimization of the paste formulation and photolithographic process, barrier rib could be obtained with good resolution up to 110-120 ${\mu}m$ height and 80-90 ${\mu}m$ width.

Dot-patterned carbon nanotube (CNT) emitters with excellent field emission properties were fabricated using photosensitive CNT paste. We carried out a parametric study on the compositions and the fabrication processes of the paste, in particular, by ball milling CNTs, which were optimized in terms of dot shapes and their field emission characteristics. The ball milling process improved the field emission current of the dot-patterned CNT emitters several times higher than that of the non-milled paste.

Although the screen printing technology using photosensitive carbon nanotube (CNT) paste has many advantages such as low cost, simple process, uniform emission, and capability of mass production, the CNT paste needs to be improved further in CNT dispersion, printability, adhesion, electrical conductivity, population of CNT emitters, etc. Ball milling has been frequently employed to prepare the CNT paste as ball milling can mix its ingredients very well and easily cut the long, entangled CNTs. This study carried out a parametric approach to fabricating the CNT paste in terms of low-energy ball milling and a paste composition. Field emission properties of the CNT paste was characterized with CNT dispersion and electrical conductivity which were measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer and a 4-point probe method, respectively. Main variables in formulating the CNT paste include a length of milling time, and amounts of CNTs and conductive inorganic fillers. In particular, we varied not only the contents of conductive fillers but also used two different sizes of filler particles of ${\mu}m$ and nm ranges. Among many variations of conductive fillers, the best field emission characteristics occurred at the 5 wt% fillers with the mixing ratio of 3:1 for ${\mu}m$-and nm-sizes. The amount and size of fillers has a great effect on the morphology, processing stability, and field emission characteristics of CNT emitter dots. The addition a small amount of nm-size fillers considerably improved the field emission characteristics of the photosensitive CNT paste.

Generally, the polymer thick-film resistors for embedded organic or hybrid substrate are patterned by screen printing so that the accuracy of resistor pattern is not good and the tolerance of resistance is too high(${\pm}$20~30%). To reform these demerits, a method using Fodel$^{(R)}$ technology, which is the patterning method using a photosensitive resin to be developable by aqueous alkali-solution as a base polymer for thick-film pastes, was recently incorporated for the patterning of thermosetting thick-film resistor paste. Alkali-solution developable photosensitive resin system has a merit that the precise patterns can be obtained by UV exposure and aqueous development, so the essential point is to get the composition similar to PSR(photo solder resist) used for PCB process. In present research, we made the photopatternable resistor pastes using 8 kinds of epoxy acrylates and a conductive carbonblack (CDX-7055 Ultra), evaluated their developing performance, and then measured the resistance after final curing. To become developable by alkali-solution, epoxy acrylate oligomers with carboxyl group were prepared. Test coupons were fabricated by patterning copper foil on FR-4 CCL board, plating Ni/Au on the patterned copper electrode, applying the resistor paste on the board, exposing the applied paste to UV through Cr mask with resistor patterns, developing the exposed paste with aqueous alkali-solution (1wt% $Na_2CO_3$), drying the patterned paste at $80^{\circ}C$ oven, and then curing it at $200^{\circ}C$ during 1 hour. As a result, some test compositions couldn't be developed according to the kind of oligomer and, in the developed compositions, the measured resistance showed different results depending on the paste compositions though they had the same amount of carbonblack.

The bus electrode is composed of two layers. One is the black matrix(BM) and silver layer is formed on top of black layer. The BM paste is made by mixing $Co_3O_4$ black powder with photosensitive vehicle and rheological additives. In this work we studied the effect of $Co_3O_4$ black powder and glass frit on the rheological property of photosensitive BM paste. We also examined how the size and content of black powder and glass frit affect the transmittance and reflectance of the BM layer after sintering.

A new PDP barrier rib formation technique was investigated utilizing transparent soft maid made of silicon resin. Transparent soft mold was fabricated by pouring a silicone resin into the base mold made with photosensitive glass. The photosensitive barrier rib paste was coated on the glass substrate and dried in a 90 $^{\circ}C$ convection oven for 20min. The transparent soft mold was pressed on top of the semi-dry barrier rib layer and then irradiated with a UV lamp to a total dose of $900{\sim}1000mJ/cm^2$ The soft maid was then removed from the pressed barrier rib by winding up and fine pattern of barrier rib was obtained. The photosensitive barrier rib paste makes the demolding easy due to reduced interfacial forces and shrinking of paste materials.

알칼리 수용액에 현상이 가능한 감광성 수지재료와 전도성 카본블랙 필러를 이용하여 포토 패터닝이 가능한 폴리머 후막 저항 페이스트를 제조하고 평가하였다. 감광성 수지로는 인쇄회로기판의 보호층으로 주로 사용되는 photo solder resist(PSR)를 사용하여 자외선에 의한 노광 및 알칼리 수용액에의 현상이 가능하게 하였다. 감광성 폴리머 저항 페이스트를 제작한 후, PCB 테스트 보드를 이용하여 후막저항체의 전기적 특성을 평가하였다. 카본블랙의 첨가량에 따라 시트저항은 감소하였으나, 과량 첨가시에는 현상성에 한계를 나타내었다. 재경화에 따라서 시트저항이 감소하였으며, 카본블랙의 첨가량이 많을수록 그 변화율은 작게 나타났다. 포토공정을 적용하여, 미세 패터닝된 meander형 후막저항체를 제조할 수 있었고, 이 방법을 통하여 적은 면적에도 시트저항의 수십 배에 달하는 큰 저항값을 구현할 수 있었다.
