IR cut-off thin films consisted of ATO nanoparticles were successfully fabricated by sol-gel method. The coating solution was synthesized with organic/inorganic hybrid binder and ATO colloidal solution and ATO thin films were coated on a slide glass with the withdrawal speed of 5~40 mm/s. As the withdrawal speed increased from 5 mm/s to 40 mm/s, the thickness of coating thin films also increased from $1.05{\mu}m$ to $4.25{\mu}m$ and the IR cut-off in wavelength of 780~2500 nm increased from 49.5 % to 66.7 %. In addition, the pencil hardness of ATO thin films dried at $80^{\circ}C$ was ca. 5H and the coating films were not removed after a cross cutter tape test because of the hybrid binder synthesized with tetraethylorthosilicate and methyltrimethoxysilane. The surface morphologies, optical properties and film thickness of prepared thin films with a different withdrawal speed were measured by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and Dektak.

In this study, we executed an environmental impact assessment about recycling of ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), used for touch panel. ITO is mainly used to make transparent conductive coatings for touch and flat screen LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), ELD (Emitting Light Device), PDP (Plasma Display Panel). This demand is increasing little by little. but form current status, ITO is discarded than recycling. It is important to recycling ITO for national strategies about resource conservation, and reduce environmental burden. Also Landfill or incineration of ITO cloud be harmful to the human health in the long-term. Material Life Cycle Assessment method (MLCA) was conducted for comparison landfill and recycling of ITO. MLCA would provide more information for environmental issues and potential environmental impacts of ITO. The study includes two scenarios, the basic scenario is recycling of ITO (10, 20, 30%) and the other scenario is landfill of ITO. In addition, amount of carbon dioxide and energy were calculated.

For the rib materials in PDP(plasma display panel), an effective method to improve the mechanical properties is to form a composite material by reinforcing a glass matrix with rigid fillers, such as alumina and titania powders. In this study, two types of ribs with different volume percent of fillers and with different glass matrix were tested for hardness, Young's modulus with the Berkovich indentation. As a result, cracks appeared around at the load of 1345 mN for the dense type of rib, while porous one endured until 2427 mN without any crack formation. Young's modulus and hardness decreased at the range: 90∼65 GPa, 9∼4 GPa, respectively as a function of indent load. Thus, a new method with nanoindenter represents a possible evaluation method for mechanical properties of barrier ribs.

In this study, the use of a discharging process for charged particles is proposed to achieve an ideal electrical balance or neutralization and to improve the electrical and optical properties of a reflective electronic display. Here, negatively charged particles (white) and positively charged particles (black) are used. The q/m (charge per mass for a particle) values of the black and white particles are $+4.5{\mu}C/g$ and $-4.5{\mu}C/g$, respectively. We compared the movement of the charged particles by varying their discharging time. Stable movement of the charged particles is obtained with an appropriate discharging time, which resulted in improvements of the optical properties of the panel.

In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging system using an elastic lens array instead of conventional rigid lens array. The lens array is made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) that is optically transparent and flexible material. We can stretch the PDMS lens array to be expanded into a certain extent, and control the lens pitch of the system easily. That flexible design enables a fine 3D integral imaging display.

A new PDP cell structure called CSP(Charge Storage Pad) improves the luminous efficiency by 1.6 times and prevents cross talk between adjacent cells. The CSP, which is a conducting material, is inserted between the dielectric layer and the MgO film in the front plate. This CSP produces a longer time-averaged discharge path to get a high luminous efficiency and confines the discharge to prevent cross talk.

Phosphate glass system is expected to be useful as a lead-free material in many devices in plasma display panels (PDP). The present study is mainly focused on the evaluation of interface reaction between ceramic fillers and phosphate glass matrix for barrier ribs in PDP. The results suggest that properties of barrier rib depend on the crystallization behavior and interface reaction between the fillers and glass matrix.

We report synthesis and properties of new phenothiazyl polymer derivatives, Poly(10-octyl-10Hphenothiazine-3,7-diyl)(POP), Poly(2',3',6',7'-tertrakis-octyloxy-9-spirobifluorene-2,7-diyl) (PTOSF), and their random copolymers, Poly(10-octylphenothiazine-co-2',3',6',7'-tertrakis-octyloxy-9-spirobifluorene) (POTOSF). PL emission of POP, PTOSF and POTOSF copolymer were found to be 480, 434 and 484nm, respectively. EL emission peak of double-layer EL device of POTOSF was at 494nm (bluish green).

We investigated the electrical and optical properties of ZnO:Al thin films as a function of the thermal process conditions. The film was prepared by RF magnetron sputtering followed by annealing in a box furnace in air. An ZnO:Al (98:2) alloy with the purity of 99.99% (3 inch diameter) was used as the target material. The electrical properties of the transparent electrode, exhibited surface oxidation as a result of rapid oxygen absorption with increasing annealing temperature. The processed ZnO:Al films and commercial ITO(indium-tin-oxide) were applied to an OLED stack to investigate the current density and luminescence efficiency. The efficiency of the device using the ZnO:Al electrode was higher than that from the device using the ITO electrode.

TFT LCD mode has some well-documented performance limitations, namely limited viewing angle, inversion of the gray scale levels and poor luminance efficiency because of the necessity of using crossed polarisers attached to the display cell. During the last few years many initiatives have been undertaken to solve these problems by incorporation birefringent films of various designs into the LCD module. Controlling the optical performance of LCDs often requires combination of liquid crystal material properties, cell parameters and optical films. Such optical films have traditionally been made with stretched polymer materials such as polycarbonate, but recently coated liquid crystalline materials have been used to give improved optical films which can greatly enhance the performance of LCDs. We have now developed reactive mesogen materials to add ultra-thin optical layers into the display structure, and these allow the potential for many new applications.
