Recently, TFT-LCD is widely used of medicine machine on the display devices. However, the display precision of TFT-LCD is 8 bits instead of 10 bits of CRT display. If the medical image have more than 8 bits, we must requantize the medical image. We propose an efficient method to reduce medical image from 10 bits into 8 bits by employing human visual perception. The proposed method shows good performance for the medical image display.

Field sequential display has some advantages but color breakup (CBU) is the significant problem. Many researches had introduced several methods to reduce CBU phenomenon, however there are no reliable methods to measure the degree of CBU. In this report, a novel CBU measurement technique which was based on the image processing method and subjective analysis results had proposed to evaluate the degree of CBU. Color Breakup Index (CBI) was presented to be a useful index to recognize the CBU phenomenon in the different field sequential technique displays.

In this study we consider the problem of production planning of TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display) production factory. Due to the complexities of the TFT-LCD production processes, it is difficult to schedule the production planning, and the study about automated scheduler is insufficient. In addition, the existing production method is a Push-System to raise the operation rate with expensive equipment, that has the problem to satisfy the due-date. This study presents an algorithm having a concept of Pull-System that satisfies the due-date and considers specialties of TFT-LCD production process. We make MPS(Master Production Schedule) according to the sales order, and present algorithms for scheduling about In/Out plan considering factory capacity, line balancing, material requirement, and inventory level of all Array, Cell, and Module processes. These algorithms are integrated as an automated production system, and we implement them in the actual TFT-LCD factory circumstance.

We have developed $EPLaR^{TM}$, a new way of making flexible electrophoretic displays. The TFTs have the same good performance, reliability and mature manufacturing processes as TFTs used in LCD monitors and LCD-TVs. We are working with partners to show that plastic displays can be made in existing TFT-LCD factories alongside glass LCDS. In this talk we describe the EPLaR process and show results for TFT arrays on plastic made in a factory by standard ${\alpha}$-Si TFT processing.

This paper presents the idea of staggered voting for the efficient TMR implementation of shift register chains for improving the yield of Poly-Si TFT-LCD driving circuits. The paper discusses the characteristic features of staggered voting and performs a quantitative evaluation of its effectiveness. Staggered voting allows us to improve the reliability of a single-voter TMR chain significantly when the probability of a voter failure is not negligible.

A 21.6" a-Si:H TFT array for direct conversion X-ray detector with 2480 by 3072 pixels is successfully developed. To obtain X-ray image of satisfactory quality, a novel structure with a storage electrode on BCB is proposed. The structure reduces the parasitic capacitance of data line, which is one of the main sources of signal noise. Also, the structure shows greater resistance to failure than that of the conventional design.

In order to analyze the characteristics of complicated TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display) circuits, it is indispensible to use simulation programs. In this study, we present a systematic method of extracting the input parameters of poly-Si TFT for Spice simulation. This method is applied to two different types of poly-Si TFTs fabricated in our group with good results. Among the Spice simulators, Pspice has the graphic user interface feature making the composition of complicated circuits easier. We added successfully a poly-Si TFT model on the Pspice simulator, which would contribute to efficient simulations of poly-Si TFT-LCD pixels and arrays.

TFT-LCD 모니터 및 TV의 핵심부품인 TFT/Color Filter를 제조하는 공장라인에서 제품의 품질에 중요한 역할을 하는 것은 유리기판에 TFT와 Color Filter을 형성시키는 노광공정(Exposure)이다. 이러한 TFT/Color Filter를 생산하는 공정내에서 노광기는 핵심기술이므로 진동에 대하여 엄격하게 관리되어지고 있다. 그리고, TV 및 TFT-LCD 모니터의 크기가 큰 것을 사용자의 요구로 TFT/Color Filter 생산 공장은 세대가 거듭될수록 사용되어지는 유리기판의 크기도 따라서 커지고 있다. 이러한 유리기판의 크기 증가는 공정라인에서 진동에 더욱더 취약해지는 결과를 초래하므로 보다 엄격하게 진동관리가 필요하게 된다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 기존 세대인 1～5세대 TFT-LCD 공장 현장에서 노광기의 진동실태를 수집하여 파악하고 Maker에서 제시하는 자료와 비교/평가하고, 문제점을 확인한다. 이를 기초로 수정/보완되어야 할 사항을 검토하며, 차세대인 6∼7세대 노광기에 대한 진동저감 대책을 위한 시스템을 설계하는 절차서에 대한 예를 들었으며, 최적의 진동저감 대책에 대한 설계안의 방향을 제시하였다.

We developed a 4 inch (qVGA, 320x240) a-Si TFT LCD which has the function of color scanner. We have designed the novel pixel structure and got good scanning quality with minimum aperture loss. In this new pixel, the sensor capacitance was increased in double without decreasing the aperture loss.

TFT-LCD panel makers have been enlarging size of TV screens, and 50-inch TFT-LCD is one of the main stream products already. To have more improved resolution, productivity and lower manufacturing cost, new TFT-LCD factories adopt large mother glass, new TFT structure and new process/materials. Along with these technology evolution, laser repair system should equip with upgraded performance and additional functions on user's demand. Laser repair technology is reviewed and newly developed repair technology is being introduced.
