In this paper, the LiF and polymer thin film as passivation layer have been evaporated on green OLED devices. HDPE, polyacenaphthylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-pheneylene oxide), poly sulfone and poly(dimer-acid-co-alkyl poly-amine) have been used as polymer materials. The optical transmittance of evaporated polymer thin film was very good as an above 90% in visible range. The morphology of polymer thin film was measured by AFM. As a result of the measurement average roughness($R_a$) value of the polysulfone was very low as 2.2 nm. The green OLED devices with a structure of ITO/HIL/HTL/EML/Buffer/Al in series of various passivation films were fabricated and analyzed. It was observed that an OLED device with LiF as first passivation film has shown the good electrical and optical property, and all kind of polymer films did not influence on the I-V-L characteristics and the life time of OLED devices. Therefore, we found that polymer layer played a key role as a buffer layer between the inorganic passivation layers to relieve the stress of the inorganic layers.

We have synthesized novel organic passivation materials to protect organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) from $H_2O$ and $O_2$ using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/layered silicate (SWN) nano composite system. Up to 3 wt% of layered silicate to PVA, very homogeneous nanocomposite solution was prepared.

We has been studied the thin film encapsulation effect for organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). To evaluate the passivation properties of the passivation layer materials, we have carried out the fabrication of green light emitting diodes with ultra violet(UV) light absorbing polymer resin, $SiO_2,\;and\;SiN_x$, respectively. From the measurement results of shrinkage properties according to the exposure time to the atmosphere, we found that $SiN_x$ thin film is the best material for passivation layer. We have investigated the emission efficiency and life time of OLED device using the package structure of $OLED/SiN_x/polymer$ resin/Al/polymer resin. The emission efficiency of this OLED device was 13 lm/W and life time was about 2,000 hours, which reach 95 % of the performance for the OLED encapsulated with metal.

The power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells has reached 23.3%. Although significant developments have been made through intensive studies, the stability issue is still challenging. Passivation of perovskite solar cells with a transparent polymer provides better stability; however, there are a few disadvantages of organic polymer such as low thermal stability, weak adhesion and the lack of water retention ability. In this work, we prepared a dual Parylene-F/C layer with 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, A-174, to combine the advantages of organic and inorganic materials. As a result, A-174 treated dual Parylene-F/C layer demonstrated improved passivation effects compared to a single Parylene layer due to the strong binding of Parylene and the water retention ability by $SiO_2$ formed from A-174. This synergetic effects can be expanded to the combination of other organic materials and organosilane compounds.

The thin-film passivation technology using the poly-para-xylylene (parylene) was applied to polymer electroluminescent devices. The fabricated device shows a good luminescent characteristic of maximum 11640 cd/$m^2$. The measured lifetime was reached up to 28 hours, which means the effectiveness of the passivation. Applying the parylene thin-film passivation technique, 10${\times}$10 passive matrix display system was implemented and obtained some still images.

Methylammonium lead halide ($MAPbI_3$) perovskites are considered as promising materials owing to their excellent optical and electrical properties. However, perovskite materials suffer from degradation in air, which limits their practical applications. Here, we demonstrate successful passivation of the $MAPbI_3$ photodetectors through monochloro-para-xylylene (Parylene-C) deposition. The time-dependent photocurrent characteristics were systematically investigated, and we achieved significantly improved device performance and stability with Parylene-C passivation. Based on the excitation-power-dependent photoluminescence (PL) data, we confirmed that Parylene-C can reduce the carrier losses in $MAPbI_3$, leading to the enhancement of photocurrent and PL in $MAPbI_3$ photodetectors.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop solid polymer electrolyte(SPE) for Li secondary battery. PEO-$LiClO_4$ electrolyte with plasticizer is very unstable. Passivation phenomena in polymer electrolyte cell was described by the SPL model. The time dependance of the impedance indicates that a passivation layer grows rapidly on the Li surface. However, the growing of passivation layer on the Li surface can be restrained by addition of zeolite to the PEO electrolyte. It suggested that addition of zeoliteto to the PEO-$LiClO_4$ electrolyte effectively controls the formation of a passivation layer on Li electrode.

It is required to improve the efficiency and the reliability of the polymer solar cells (PSCs) as the energy saving optical device for the future application of the smart farm facilities. In this study, we fabricated the bulk hetero junction PSCs with organic passivation film layer for the reliability improvement of the devices. The effects of the passivation layer on the electrical properties of the PSCs were studied. The materials of passivation layer are composed of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) and ammonium dichromate, and the passivation films were fabricated by the spin coating method on the P3HT:$PC_{61}BM$/LiF/Al substrate. The prepared structure of the device is the glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT:$PC_{61}BM$/LiF/Al/passivation layer. The performances of the PSCs with the organic passivation film showed better electrical properties compared with the PSCs without passivation layers. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) values of passivated PSCs decreased from 3.0 to 1.3% after air exposure for 140 hrs. In contrast, the PCE values for the devices without passivation decreased sharply from 3.5 to 0.1% under the same exposure condition.

Perfluorinated polymer($Cytop^{TM}$) was deposited on selective area of AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure using low cost and simple spin-coating method, and the electrical characteristics of the device was analyzed for application of passivation layer on semiconductors. Gate lag measurement results of $Cytop^{TM}$ passivated and unpassivated HEMT were compared. Passivated device shows improved 65 % pulsed drain current of dc mode value. Rf measurements were also performed. $Cytop^{TM}$ passivated HEMT have similar rf performance to PECVD grown $Si_3N_4$ passivated device. $Cytop^{TM}$ passivation layer may play an important role in mitigating surface state trapping in the region between gate and drain.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics as a function of passivation thickness$(t_p)$ in the fringe-field swiching (FFS) mode using the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy. When $t_p$ is increased from $0.29{\mu}m$ to $3.0{\mu}m$, a maximum transmittance is slightly increased to $2{\mu}m$. However, operating voltage is continuously increased up to above 11v. We found that the tilt angle is decreased between the edge of pixel electrode and the center of each pixel electrode. In the FFS mode using the liquid crystal with positive dielectric anisotropy, transmittance is affected by the tilt angle. When tilt angle is increased, transmittance become decrease. Therefore, in the FFS device, a low tilt angle is favored for high transmittance. It is demonstrated that the suitable passivation thickness make a tilt angle decreased.
