A novel single cell gap transflective liquid crystal display was developed. By using the ink jet printing technology, we fabricated a transflective liquid crystal display with the hybrid alignment in the reflective region and the homogeneous alignment in the transmission region. Compared with the traditional technologies, our technology provided the advantages of easy process, high yield, fast throughput, and less material usage. We also applied this technology to the 2.4 inch prototype. This panel could be implemented in the handheld product applications.

We have designed a single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) driven by a fringe electric field, in which the LCs are homogeneously aligned in the initial state. In the reflective and transmissive areas, the degrees of the rotation of the LC director are $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$, respectively. Utilizing this mechanism and an in-cell retarder with a quarter-wave plate that is used below the LC layer, the transflective LCD using fringe-field switching (FFS) mode is realized.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics of reflective optically compensated splay (R-OCS) cell. The initial configuration of this cell is in splay form such that a mid director lies parallel to the substrate and around it hybrid structure is formed symmetrically so the optically compensation effect exists. Optimized optical configurations could be achieved by using a single polarizer, a quarter-wave film and a cell with quarter-wane retardation. The optimal cell retardation is 0.34 ${\mu}$m, allowing to have large cell gap. The cell provides high contrast ratio of 80:1 at normal direction and the region with contrast ratio over 5:1 covert up to 160$^{\circ}$ horizontally and vertically at all wavelength range.

In this paper, silicon nitride thin films with different silane and ammonia gas ratios were deposited and characterized for the antireflection and passivation layer of high efficiency single crystalline silicon solar cells. As the flow rate of the ammonia gas increased, the refractive index decreased and the band gap increased. Consequently, the transmittance increased due to the higher band gap and the decrease of the defect states which existed for the 1.68 and 1.80 eV in the SiNx films. The reduction in the carrier lifetime of the SiNx films deposited by using a higher $NH_3/SiH_4$ flow ratio was caused by the increase of the interface traps and the defect states in/on the interface between the SiNx and the silicon wafer. The silicon and nitrogen rich films are not suitable for generating both higher carrier lifetimes and transmittance. These results indicate that the band gap and the defect states of the SiNx films should be carefully controlled in order to obtain the maximum efficiency for c-Si solar cells.

The stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the $CuInSe_2$ single crystal thin film was prepared from horizontal furnace. Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the polycrystal $CuInSe_2$, it was found tetragonal structure whose lattice constant $a_0$ and $c_0$ were $5.783\;{\AA}$ and $11.621\;{\AA}$, respectively. To obtain the $CuInSe_2$ single crystal thin film, $CuInSe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched GaAs(100) by the HWE(Hot Wall Epitaxy) system. The source and substrate temperature were $620^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystalline structure of $CuInSe_2$ single crystal thin film was investigated by the double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). Hall effect on this sample was measured by the method of Van der Pauw and studied on carrier density and mobility depending on temperature. From Hall data, the mobility was likely to be decreased by impurity scattering in the temperature range 30 K to 100 K and by lattice scattering in the temperature range 100 K to 293 K. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $CuInSe_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=1.1851\;eV-(8.99{\times}10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2/(T+153\;K)$. The open-circuit voltage, short current density, fill factor, and conversion efficiency of $n-CdS/p-CuGaSe_2$ heterojunction solar cells under $80\;mW/cm^2$ illumination were found to be 0.51V, $29.3\;mA/cm^2$, 0.76 and 14.3 %, respectively.

The stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the $CaAl_2Se_4$: Co single crystal thin film was prepared from horizontal furnace. Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the polycrystal $CaAl_2Se_4$, it was found orthorhomic structure whose lattice constant $a_0$, $b_0$ and $c_0$ were 6.4818, $11.1310{\AA}$ and $11.2443{\AA}$, respectively. To obtain the $CaAl_2Se_4$: Co single crystal thin film, $CaAl_2Se_4$: Co mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched Si (100) by the HWE (Hot Wall Epitaxy) system. The source and substrate temperature were $600^{\circ}C$ and $440^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystalline structure of $CaAl_2Se_4$: Co single crystal thin film was investigated by the double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD).

We have developed a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) with a single cell gap and a low twisted nematic (LTN) mode in combination with a self-integrated retardation layer. The retardation layer was made of UV curable liquid crystalline material in one step of photo masking process and has both the homeotropic and the planar parts. The proposed transflective configuration has advantages in a simple fabrication process, and the possibility for a single driving scheme due to the similarity between the transmittance and the reflectance.

광결정(photonic crystal)은 서로 다른 유전체가 규칙적으로 배열되어 있는 구조로서, 빛이 진행할 수 없는 진동수 영역인 광밴드갭(photonic bandgap)이 존재한다. 광밴드갭 특성으로 빛의 자발 방출과 진행 방향이 조절될 수 있기 때문에, 광결정은 나노 레이저, 광도파관, LED(Light Emitting Diode) 등의 광소자 개발에 응용되고 있다. 지금까지 2차원, 3차원의 광결정에 대한 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔으며, 현재에는 2차원의 슬랩(slab) 구조에 대해 활발하게 연구되고 있다. (중략)

간극결합(intercellular channel)은 인접하는 두 세포사이에 형성된 이온채널이며 이를 통해서 각종 이온, 이차 신호전달물질, 그리고 1 kDa 미만의 대사물질들이 통과한다. 아울러, sodium 혹은 potassium 이온채널처럼 반쪽의 간극결합(connexon 혹은 hemichannel)도 세포막채널로서 작용을 한다. 현재까지 간극결합을 구성하는 connexin (Cx) 단위체는 26종류 이상이 확인되었다. 이 가운데, Cx32, Cx38, Cx46 그리고 Cx50 만이 간극결합채널뿐만 아니라 세포막채널로서도 기능을 수행한다. Xenopus oocytes에서 connexin 38 (Cx38)이 발현하는 것으로 알려져 있지만 Cx38의 생물리학적 특성이 단일채널수준에서 연구가 진행된 경우는 없다. 이번 연구에서는 Cx38 채널의 생물리학적 특성, 즉 전압-의존적 개폐와 투과성(전기전도도와 이온선택성)을 알아보고자 단일채널기록을 수행하였다. Cx38 hemichannel은 전압-의존적인 빠른 개폐와 느린 개폐의 특성을 보였다. 양성전압 환경에서는 Cx38 채널이 낮은 열릴 확률(open probability)로 빠른 개폐가 유도된 반면, 음성전압에서는 느린 개폐가 높은 열릴 확률로 유도되었다. bi-ionic 실험을 통하여, Cx38 채널은 양이온보다 음이온을 더 선택 적으로 통과시킨다는 점을 알게 되었다. Cx38의 아미노산서열을 살펴보면, 아미노말단부위에 전하를 띠는 5개의 아미노산 잔기가 존재한다. 앞으로 이들 잔기를 치환시킨 돌연변이 Cx38 채널을 이용하여 과연 이들 아미노산 부위가 전압-의존적 개폐와 투과성에 관여하는 지 여부를 조사하는 연구는 매우 흥미로운 결과를 도출할 것으로 기대한다.

Electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned liquid crystal (LC) cell driven by fringe field using a nematic LC with positive dielectric anisotropy have been studied. Optimized optical configurations are achieved by using a single polarizer, half-wave film and a cell with quarter-wave retardation. The simulation results shows an optimum cell retardation of $0.30{\mu}m$. This value may allow a practical cell gap larger than $3{\mu}m$, which makes it easy to control in the manufacturing process. Furthermore, this LC cell with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about $100{\circ}$ in vertical direction and $160{\circ}$ in horizontal direction. Also, when using the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy rather than negative dielectric anisotropy, the display shows low power consumption and fast response time.
