본 논문에서는 TFT-LCD 구동 IC 모듈의 소형화측면에서 유리한 DC-DC 변환기 회로인 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 비중첩 부스트-클락 전하펌프 (Non-overlap Boosted-Clock Charge Pump: NBCCP) 회로가 제안되었다 .2VDC 전압으로 스윙하는 비중첩 부스트-클럭의 사용으로 기존의 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 크로스-커플드 전하펌프에 비해 펌핑 단의 수를 반으로 줄일 수 있었고, 전하 펌핑 노드의 펌핑된 전하가 입력 단으로 역류되는 현상을 방지하였다 . 그 결과 제안된 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 비중첩 부스트-클럭 전하펌프 회로는 기존의 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 크로스-커플드 전하펌프에 비해 펌핑 전류가 증가하였고, 레이아웃 면적은 감소되었다. 제안된 TFT-LCD 구동 IC용 DC-DC 변환기 회로를 $0.18{\mu}m$ Triple-Well CMOS 공정을 사용하여 설계하고, 테스트 칩을 제작 중에 있다.

TFT-LCD consists of LCD panel on the top, circuit unit on the side and BLU on the bottom. The recent development issues of BLU-dependent TFT-LCD have been power consumption minimization, slimmerization and size maximization. As a result of this trend, LED is adopted as BLU instead of CCFL to increase brightness and to reduce thickness. In liquid crystal displays, the light efficiency is below 10% due to the loss of light in the path from a light source to an LCD panel and presence of absorptive polarizer. This low efficiency results in low brightness and high power consumption. One way to circumvent this situation is to use a reflective polarizer between backlight units and LCD panels. Since a nano-wire grid polarizer has been known as a reflective polarizer, an idea was proposed that it can be used for the enhancement of the brightness of LCD. The use of reflective polarizing film is increasing as edge type LED TV and 3D TV markets are growing. This study has been carried out to fabrication of the nano-wire grid polarizer(NWGP) and investigated the brightness enhancement of LCD through polarization recycling by placing a NWGP between an c and a backlight unit. NWGPs with a pitch of 200nm were fabricated using laser interference lithography and aluminum sputtering and wet etching. And The NWGP fabrication process was using by the UV imprinting and was applied to plastic PET film. In this case, the brightness of an LCD with NWGPs was 1.21 times higher than that without NWGPs due to polarization recycling.

In this paper, the Timed Petri-Nets(TPN) modeling of Modular Cell Manufacturing Systems(MCMS) was investigated to overcome the limit of batch mode operation, which has been one of the most popular manufacturing types to produce an extensive industrial output and to be able to adopt to suitable and quickly changing manufacturing environments. A model of the MCMS was developed in reference to the actual TFT-LCD manufacturing system. TFT-LCD manufacturing system is not mass-productive in batch mode, but it operates in the form of MCMS which consists of a sequence of several cells with four processes of operation, including those of color filter(C/F), TFT, cell, and module. The cell process is further regrouped in those of Front-End and Back-End. For the Back-End cell process, it is reconstructed into a virtual model, consisting of three cells. The TPN modeling encompasses those properties, such as states and operations of machines, the number of buffers, and the processing time. The performance of the modeling was further examined in terms of scheduling system. The productivity in each cells was examined with respect to the change of failure rate of the cell machines and Automatic Guided Vehicles(AGV) using simulation by TPN.

A 15.4" WXGA TFT-LCD, featuring integrated a-Si:H gate driver circuits and reduced data driver ICs, has been developed. To reduce number of data lines into 1/2 of conventional structure, the pixel array has been re-mapped with re-organized data signal. Unintended artificial effects such as flicker were removed by adopting the novel pixel array having a 'zigzag' map. To minimize the power consumption, a column inversion method was incorporated in the zigzag pixel array (Fig.1) without modifying the polarity map of conventional dot inversion method.

A 5.0-inch plastic TFT-LCD with the resolution of $400{\times}3{\times}300$ lines (120ppi) was developed. The device is a transmissive type with the transparent PES plastic substrates. The PES films with one side barrier coating were used for the device. In order to produce the high resolution display device, the alignments between all the layers for the TFT and CF are essential. The fundamental shrinkage effect and the thermal expansion behavior of the plastic substrates with and without the barrier coatings were studied. The proper annealing processes followed by immediate second bar-rier coating processes provide the optimal alignment between all the layers of the TFT and CF..

TFT-LCD BLU has been remarkably developed for a recent few years as TFT-LCD market is increased. Recently new BLU technologies and components are developed as more aggressively than before since TFT-LCD panel requires higher quality and resolution. Especially Samsung Electronics and LG Philips LCD of Korea are major LCD panel makers and the major optical materials of LCD BLU and panel for Samsung Electronics have been supplied by Samsung Cheil Industries. In this presentation introduction to main components of LCD BLU will be investigated details. Also characteristics and applications of optical polymers such as PMMA, PET etc for LCD display will be included and finally recent trends in optical materials for LCD BLU will be shown briefly.

In this paper, we investigated the SLS process to control grain boundary(GB) location in TFT channel region, and it has been found to be applicable for locating the GB at the same location in the channel region of each TFT. We fabricated TFT by applying a new alignment SLS process and compared the TFT characteristics with a normal SLS method and the grain boundary location controlled SLS method. Also, we have analysed degradation phenomena under hot carrier stress conditions for n-type LDD MOSFETs.

A 2.2-inch QCIF+(176${\times}$RGB${\times}$220) TFT-LCD with integrated row driver was developed using a standard amorphous silicon TFT technology. At low temperature, the integrated row driver operation is dramatically effected by the electron drift mobility reduction(■50 %) and the threshold voltage shift (■1V) of the a-Si TFT. We studied the dependency of circuit design and found that higher on-current circuit is important to guarantee good operation in wide temperature range.

A 2.2-inch QCIF+ $(176{\times}RGB{\times}220)$ TFT-LCD with integrated row driver was developed using a standard amorphous silicon TFT technology. At low temperature $({\sim}-20^{\circ}C)$, the integrated row driver operation is dramatically effected by the electron drift mobility variation $({\sim}50%)$ and the threshold voltage shift $({\sim}1V)$ of the a-Si TFT. We studied the temperature dependency of the circuit design and found that higher on-current circuit is important to guarantee good operation in wide temperature range.
