본 논문에서는 TFT-LCD 구동 IC 모듈의 소형화 측면에서 유리한 DC-DC 변환기 회로인 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 크로스-커플드 전하펌프(Cross-Coupled Charge Pump with Internal Pumping Capacitor) 회로가 새롭게 제안되었다. VGH 및 VGL 전하펌프 각각의 입력단과 전하 펌핑 노드를 연결하는 NMOS 및 PMOS 다이오드를 두어, 초기 동작 시 전하 펌핑 노드를 서로 같은 값으로 프리차지하여 대칭 적으로 전하 펌핑을 하도록 하였다. 그리고 첫 번째 전하 펌프의 구조를 다르게 설계하여 펌핑된 전하가 입력단으로 역류되는 현상을 방지하였다. 또한, 펌핑 클럭 구동 드라이버의 위치를 펌핑 커패시터 바로 앞에 두어 기생 저항으로 인한 펌핑 클럭 라인의 전압강하를 방지하여 구동능력을 향상 시켰다. 마지막으로 내장형 펌핑 커패시터를 Stack-MIM 커패시터를 사용하여 기존의 크로스-커플드 전하펌프 보다 레이아웃 면적을 최소화하였다. 제안된 TFT-LCD 구동 IC 용 전하펌프 회로를 $0.13{\mu}m$ Triple-Well DDI 공정을 사용하여 설계하고, 테스트 칩을 제작하여 검증하였다.

The use of lightweight aggregate (LWA) instead of ordinary aggregate may make lightweight aggregate concrete, which possesses many advantages such as lightweight, lower thermal conductivity, and better fire and seismic resistance. Recently the developments of LWA have been focused on using industrial wastes as raw materials to reduce the use of limited natural resources. In view of this, the intent of this study was to apply Taguchi optimization technique in determining process condition for producing synthetic LWA by incorporating waste thin film transition liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCD) glass powder with reservoir sediments. In the study the waste TFT-LCD glass cullet was used as an additive. It was incorporated with reservoir sediments to produce LWA. Taguchi method with an orthogonal array L16(45) and five controllable 4-level factors (i.e., cullet content, preheat temperature, preheat time, sintering temperature, and sintering time) was adopted. Then, in order to optimize the selected parameters, the analysis of variance method was used to explore the effects of the experimental factors on the performances (particle density, water absorption, bloating ratio, and loss of ignition) of the produced LWA. The results showed that it is possible to produce high performance LWA by incorporating waste TFT-LCD glass cullet with reservoir sediments. Moreover, Taguchi method is a promising approach for optimizing process condition of synthetic LWA using recycled glass cullet and reservoir sediments and it significantly reduces the number of tests.

A robot hand is used to transport the glass substrate in TFT-LCD manufacturing process. Carbon/epoxy composite is one of the best materials for this kind of robot hand application, due to their lightweight, high stiffness, and good damping characteristics. Major requirement of the robot hand is given as allowable deflection under weight loading of glass substrate and robot hand itself. In this thesis, a carbon/epoxy robot hand was analyzed using finite element method and beam theory to determine the deflection of the hand under the loading that is equivalent to actual weight. Because natural frequency is one of the major interests in robot hand design for TFT-LCD manufacturing process, modal analysis is also conducted using finite element method and beam theory. A robot hand was manufactured, and actual deflection and natural frequency were measured to verify the analysis results and compliance to requirement. The test results showed good agreement with analysis results.

The electrochemical characteristics of Alalloy thin film with low impurity concentrations AIZr deposited by using do magnetron co-sputtering deposition are investigated for the applications as gate bus line in the TFT-LCD panel. AlZr thin films were deposited various atomic percent of Zr. For increasing Zr atomic percent the hillock density was decreased and the resistivity was increased. The deposited thin films show the decrease of resistivity and the increase of grain size after the RTA at 300 $^{\circ}C$for 20 min.. Moreover, the resistivity of AIZr does not show appreciable grain size dependence after RTA. It is concluded that the decrease of resistivity after RTA is due to the increase of grain size. The annealed AIZr(at.0.9%) is found to be hillock free. The electrode potentials of AIZr were less than ITO's (-1.4V) and the etching rate of AIZr(at.0.9%) was 3.8587ng/sec. in KOH(10%) solution. Caculation results reveal that the AIZr(at.0.9%) thin film can be applicable to gate line of 25" UXGA class TFT-LCD panels and can not be applicable to data line.line.

TFT-LCD automatic defect inspection system for detecting defects in place of the visual tester does pre-processing, candidate defect pixel detection, and recognition and classification through a blob analysis. An over-detection result of defects acts as an undue burden of blob analysis for recognition and classification. In this paper, we propose defect detection method based on the histogram distribution modeling of TFT-LCD image to minimize over-detection of candidate defective pixels. Primary defect candidate pixels are detected estimating the skewness of the luminance distribution histogram of the background pixels. Based on the detected defect pixels, the defective pixels other than noise pixels are detected using the distribution histogram model of the local area. Experimental results confirm that the proposed method shows an excellent defect detection result on the image containing the various types of defects and the reduction of the degree of over-detection as well.

Recently, specifications of flat display module is going to be higher definition, brightness and more wide viewing angle. On the other hand, physical thickness of those modules is forced to be slimmer and lighter. The flat display modules such as plasma or TFT-LCD employ thin crystallized panels that are normally weak to high level transient mechanical energy inputs. As a result, anti-shock performance is one of the most important design specifications of TFT-LCD modules. TFT-LCD module manufacturers and their customers like PC or TV makers perform a series of strict impact/drop test for the modules. However most of the large display module designs are generated based on engineer's own trial-error experiences. Those designs may result in disqualification from the drop/impact test during final product evaluation. A rigorous study on the impact failure of the displays is of course necessitated in order to avoid the problems. In this article, a systematic design evaluation is presented with combinations of FEM modeling and testing to support the optimal shock proof display design procedure.

반도체 및 TFT-LCD등을 생산하는 공장 구조물에는 C/R이 있으며, 여기에는 외부 진동에 엄격한 특성을 갖고 있는 각종 수 많은 정밀장비가 설치되어 있다. 더구나, 이러한 정밀장비등의 정상운용을 위하여 각종 UT(유틸리티)등이 병행하여 C/R내 산재해 설치되어 있다. 이러한 UT는 정밀장비와 각종 배관들로 연결되어 설치되어 있다. 또한 C/R의 항온/항습등을 유지하기 위하여 공조등 부대 유틸리티도 또한 설치되어 있으며, 이러한 각종 유틸리티는 진동은 유발하는 진동원이 되며, 여기서 발생하는 진동은 C/R의 진동환경을 열악하게 만들 수 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 TFT-LCD 생산 공장에서 UT와 배관등에서 발생하는 진동이 공장 구조물(격자보)와 공진현상을 일으켜 인접하여 설치 된 정밀장비에 악영향을 끼치고 있음을 현장 진동 측정과 구조물 동적 해석을 통하여 확인하였고, 제안한 저감대책을 수행 후 진동 영향성의 감소됨을 확인하였다.

We have developed a high performance vertical alignment TFT-LCD, that shows a high light transmittance, and wide viewing angle characteristics with an unusually high contrast ratio. In order to optimize the electro-optical properties we have studied the effect of cell parameters, multi-domain structure and retardation film compensation. With the optimized cell parameters and process conditions, we have achieved a 24" wide UXGA TFT-LCD monitor (16:10 aspect ratio 1920X1200) showing a contrast ratio over 500:1, panel transmittance near 4.5%, response time near 27 ms, and viewing angle higher than 80 degree in all directions.
