We report the photo (PL) and electro luminescence (EL) properties of new conjugated compounds based on imidazole moiety, 4,4' -di(4,5 diphenyl-N-imidazolyl)stilbene(DDPIS) and 4,4'-di(2,4,5-triphenyl-N-imidazolyl)stilbene(DTPIS), as emitting materials. ITO/m-MTDATA/NPB/DDPIS/Alq3/LiF/AI device shows blue EL spectrum at 456 ㎚ and 0.3 cd/ A and turn on voltage at 7 ∼ 8 V. DTPIS shows blue EL spectrum at around λmax=453㎚ and 0.5 cd/A efficiency in ITO/m-MTDATA/NPB/DTPIS/Alq3/LiF/Al device.

Recently, Organic EL(Electro Luminescence) is interested in Flat Panel Display(FPD) department of new generation. This paper describes a image processing algorithm for the scratch detecting for ITO coated glass. We use the logical level thresholding method for binarization of gray-scaled glass image. This method is useful to the algorithm for detecting scratch of ITO coated glass automatically without need of any prior information of manual fine tuning of parameters.

This paper presents the electro-luminescence (EL) display lamp which is patterned on a curved surface by the pad printing method. The printing methods, including the gravure, screen, flexo, inkjet, and pad printing, have an advantage of one-step direct patterning. However, in general, the printing and semi-conductor process, except pad printing method, cannot be applied for patterning on a curved surface. Thus, in this paper, we used pad printing method for patterning an EL display lamp on a curved surface. The EL display lamp consists of 5 layers: Bottom electrode; Dielectric layer; Phosphor; Transparent electrode; Bus electrode. Finally, we printed EL display lamp on a dish, which has a radius of curvature 80mm. The EL display lamp was driven at AC 200V of 1kHz.

Hole transport copolymers consisting of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and N-4-butylphenyl-N,N-diphenylamine (BTPA) were synthesized by oxidative coupling reaction using $FeCl_3$ as an oxidant. These copolymers showed good solubility and their thin films showed sufficient morphological stability. The copolymers showed an absorption maximum around 320 nm. Copolymers had an oxidation peak at approximately $1.03{\sim}1.14V$ versus the Ag/AgCl electrode. The hole mobility increased with increasing portion of the EDOT unit. The hole mobility of the copolymer containing 57% of the EDOT unit showed the highest mobility of $3{\times}10^{-5}cm^2/V{\cdot}s$.

A phenomenon of electroluminescent radiate as electric field applied in the phosphor, in this paper, we produced the Powder Electroluminescent Device(PELD) which was changing the structure and the thickness of phosphor and insulator for realization of the PELD with high brightness. We made PELD with structure that is WK-1(ITO film/Phosphor/Insulator/Electrode), WK-2(ITO film/Phosphor/Insulator/Electro de), WK-3(ITO film/Phosphor/Insulator/Electrode), WK-4(ITO film/Phosphor+Insulator/ Electrode). The property of the produced PELD are analyzed by measuring the spectrum which electrical and optical property, the brightness and the transferred charge density. In this result, the structure of WK-4 have good luminescence property than others, it's effective thickness is 60${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. At 100V 400Hz, High brightness of 2700cd/m2 was performed.

Organic EL has been expected to adopt to a new styles of technology that make flat display after Tang & Vanslyke made good electric luminescence device in late 1980s. Their studies based on multi layer structure that consists of emitting layer and carrier transporting layer using proper organic material. But oxidization of organic layer by ITO, energy walls in both pole interface, contaminations of ITO surface, importance of protecting membrane, diffusive dimming of light to cathode organic layer, these causes of degradations are common facts of a macromolecule and micro molecule. We think these degradation caused by the impact of heat and electro-chemical factor, bulk effect and interface phenomenon, and raise a question.

EL (Electro-Luminescence)란 전계발광소자로서 반도체, 주로 형광체에 전계를 인가할 때 아무런 열 발생 없이 발광하는 현상을 말한다. EL 발광현상은 형광물질에 고전기 장이 인가되었을 때, 고전기장에 의해 전자를 가속되고 가속된 전자가 발광중심이라 불리는 Light-emitting Center의 전자를 충돌 여기 시키고 이렇게 여기 된 전자가 다시 바닥상태로 완화될 때, 빛이 발생하는 현상을 일컫는다. 이러한 효과를 이용하여 여러 가지 디바이스에 응용이 되고 있고, 특히 TN, STN LCD의 백라이트로서 각광을 받았으나, 휴대폰 LCD의 컬러화로 인해 그 수요가 급격히 감소하였으나, 현재는 휴대폰의 키패드의 백 라이트로서 LED와 경쟁을 하고 있다. EL만이 가지는 여러 가지 장점으로 인해 광고용 등에 특히 많이 응용이 되고 있다. 또한 캐나다의 iFire사(社)와 같은 회사에서는 무기 EL을 이용하여 디스플레이로서도 활용을 하고 있어 그 응용 가능성이 매우 크다.

The Organic Electroluminescence (OEL) device, that was consisted of ALq3(8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine), has been used. We investigated characteristics of brightness and current density about OEL that was oxidated each layers. We used two samples that were fabricated each continuous and non-continuous method. Emission was observed above 10mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and luminance was measured to be 1530cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a current density of 100mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$. A luminance of over 2600cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was also observed after the final fabrication process.

후막형 무기 EL (electro-luminescence) 소자는 제조공정이 간단하고, 얇고, 가볍고, 유연한 동의 많은 장점들 때문에 휴대폰의 키패드 (key-pad) 및 광고용 back-light용으로 사용되고 있다. 이 무기 EL 소자는 비교적 손쉬운 스크린 프린팅 (screen-printing) 법으로 대면적을 제작할 수 있지만, LED (light emitting diode) 등과 비교하여 밝기가 낮아서 그 응용 분야가 제한되고 있다. EL 소자의 형광층은 전면 전극과 후면 전극 사이에 위치한다. EL은 이 형광층에 고 전기장이 걸릴 때, 전기장에 의해 가속된 전자가 형광층 내부에 첨가된 발광 중심의 전자를 여기시키고, 여기된 전자가 다시 바닥상태로 완화될 때 빛이 방출되는 현상이다. 즉, EL 소자는 이러한 전자 발광 현상을 이용한 소자로서, 전압 인가 시 발광 면 전체가 균일하게 발팡하는 평면 광원이다. 이러한 EL 소자에서 휘도의 증가는 후면 전극과 형광층 사이에 삽입되는 유전체 층의 특성과 밀접한 연관성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 고휘도 무기 EL 소자를 제작하기 위하여 이 유전체 층의 특성과 소자의 성능 사이의 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 유전체 층에 사용하기 위해서 $BaTiO_3$-PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride)의 복합체 필름을 제조하였다. 먼저 이 복합체 필름을 스크린 프린팅 (screen printing) 법으로 코팅하기 위한 페이스트 제작을 위해서, PVDF 수지를 용제에 녹였다. 그 다음, 일반 혼합기 및 삼단 롤밀 혼합기 (3-roll milling mixer) 등을 이용하여 $BaTiO_3$ 분말과 PVDF 용액을 다양한 비율로 혼합하여 페이스트를 제조하였다. ITO가 증착된 PET Film에 스크린 프린팅 법을 사용하여 형광층, 유전층, 배면 전극 등을 차례로 코팅하였다. $BaTiO_3$ (BT) 분말과 복합체 필름의 XRD 분석 결과, 분말 시료와 복합체 시료 모두 페로브스카이트 구조의 BT 회절선만 관찰되었다. 복합체의 단면 SEM 관찰에서는, BT 분말의 무게비가 증가할수록 더 치밀한 구조를 보여줌을 확인하였다. 또 EL소자의 유전상수와 휘도도 BT 분말의 혼합비가 증가할수록 증가하였다. 본 연구에서 제작한 무기 EL 소자의 최대 휘도는 약 $130\;cd/m^2$ 정도로 측정되었는데, 이는 휴대폰 키패드의 back-light용 광원으로 사용하기 충분하다고 판단되어진다.

The purpose of this paper is that the roughness(Rrms = 31$\AA$, Rp-v = 270$\AA$) of ITO thin film deposited by sputtering method for OELD is improved to Rrms $\leq$ 10$\AA$, Rp-v $\leq$ 80$\AA$ by chemical mechanical polishing(CMP). First, ITO thin films are polished with a variety of consumables (Pads, Slurries) to choose proper some for the roughness improvement and the CMP mechanism of ITO thin films is demonstrated on the ground of the experiment results. Henceforth, the CMP characteristics (Removal rate, Non-uniformity) of chosen consumables are evaluated according to processing conditions (Polishing pressures, Table velocities) and suitable conditions for ITO film CMP are selected. Finally, the electrical and optical properties (Sheet resistance, Transmittance) of ITO thin films are investigated to verify whether or not ITO thin film are still suitable for OELD after polished.
