A promising capacitor, which has conformable step coverage and good uniformity of thickness and composition, is needed to manufacture high-density non-volatile FeRAM capacitors with a stacked cell structure. In this study, ferroelectric $Bi_{3.61}Nd_{0.39}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BNT) thin films were prepared on $Pt(111)/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by the liquid delivery system MOCVD method. In these experiments, $Bi(ph)_3$, $Nd(TMHD)_3$ and $Ti(O^iPr)_2(TMHD)_2$ were used as the precursors and were dissolved in n-butyl acetate. The BNT thin films were deposited at a substrate temperature and reactor pressure of approximately $600^{\circ}C$ and 4.8 Torr, respectively. The microstructure of the layered perovskite phase was observed by XRD and SEM. The remanent polarization value (2Pr) of the BNT thin film was $31.67\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 5 V.

We have prepared the plasma-polymerized membrane for pervaporation of organic-liquid mixtures by the plasma polymerization technique. Plasma polymerization techniques were utilized in the development of hydrophilic composite membranes having high hydrogen ion permeability and excellent dimensional stability. To develop an organic liquid permselective membrane. suppressing membrane swelling as well as enhancing the solubility difference is important, the objectives of the present study are to design a suitable membrane for an organic-mixture system by the control of the plasma-polymer solubility.

In recent years, attempts have been made to greatly improve the display quality of active-matrix liquid crystal display devices, and many techniques have been proposed to solve such problems as gate delay, feed-through voltage and image sticking. Gate delay is one of the biggest limiting factors for large-screen-size, high-resolution thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT/LCD) design. Many driving method proposed for TFT/LCD progress. Thus we developed gate driving signal generator. Since Pixel-Design Array Simulation Tool (PDAST) can simulate the gate, data and pixel voltages of a certain pixel on TFT array at any time and at any location on an array, the effect of the driving signals of gate lines on the pixel operations can be effectively analyzed.

In this study, a mathematical model for a thermal analysis of a flat heat pipe with a grooved wick structure is presented. The effects of the liquid-vapor interfacial shear stress, the contact angle, and the amount of liquid charge have been included in the proposed model. In particular, the axial variations of the wall temperature and the evaporation/condensation rates are considered by solving the one-dimensional conduction and the augmented Young-Laplace equations, respectively. In order to verify the model, the results obtained from the model are compared to existing experimental data.

An experimental study is performed to investigate the thermal and flow characteristics of subcooled liquid nitrogen in a natural circulation loop. Experimental apparatus is designed and constructed such that a closed loop is cooled at the top by a cryocooler and heated nearly at the bottom by cartridge heaters. Steady state is obtained by controlling the heating power to the cartridge heaters and a thin-film heater to reduce the cooling power of the cryocooler. Temperature is measured at several locations of the loop and the mass flow rate through the loop is estimated from the energy balance in terms of the measured temperatures. Experiment is repeated for various values of the vertical height between the cooling and heating parts. The results show that the heat transfer capability of the loop has a maximum at a certain value of height. The optimal height to maximize the heat transfer is in a good agreement with analytical prediction to take into account the buoyancy and viscous forces in the loop.

The backlight unit(BLU) is used as a light source of TFT liquid-crystalline-display (TFT-LCD) module. In this backlight unit, one of important components is the light guide, which is usually made of transparent polymers. Currently the screen-printing method is mainly used for the light guide as a manufacturing process. However, it has limitation to the flexibility of three-dimensional optical design. In the present paper a new alternative manufacturing method for the light guide with low-cost is proposed. This manufacturing method is named as direct surface forming (DSF), which is very similar to the well-known hot embossing except for partial contact between mold and substrate. The results of this new manufacturing method are presented in terms of processing condition, dimensional accuracy, productivity, etc.

In precision machinery systems for medical and chemical applications, micropumps with a low pulsation have been demanded and investigated for accurate delivery of a small amount of liquid. This study proposes sheet type check valves instead of ball type check valves for PZT pumps and performs some tests on dynamics characteristics of check valves having different design parameter with variable frequency. The selected materials of check valves is NBR, PP film, Polyimide and Stainless steel(SUS304). In the experiment, dynamic characteristics of stainless steel thin plate have better performance than others.

The mechanism for lattice-shaped mura defects was proposed by characterizing the electro-optic properties of liquid crystal (LC), which showed different transmission properties between the normal and mura defect areas. An increase in the mura defect rate was observed when the dotted LC in the one drop filling (ODF) was exposed for a longer time. The dotted LC droplet at the edge evaporated more rapidly than that in the center. This resulted in a higher concentration of polar singles at the edge of the dotted LC droplet, leading to a higher ${\Delta}n$ value and higher transmittance. This implies that the reductio of the exposure time of the dotted LC to air plays a critical role in decreasing the occurrence of lattice-shaped mura defects in ODF.

Deposition of silicon on pretreated sapphire substrates has been investigated by the liquid phase epitaxy method at low temperatures. An average 14 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness of silicon was grown over a large area on sapphire substrate originally coated with a much thinner silicon layer $[0.5 \mu\textrm{m} (100) Si/(1102) sapphire]$ at low temperatures from $(380^{\circ}C to 460^{\circ}C)$.
