Tandem white organic light emitting diodes (WOLEDs) are fabricated by using a transparent interconnecting layer of Al:LiF composite/molybdenum oxides ($MoO_3$). We demonstrate two types of tandem WOLEDs consisting of two color emissions (red and blue emission) and three color emissions (red, green and blue emission). Tandem WOLED consisting of three color emission shows higher external quantum efficiency and current efficiency.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film is a transparent electrode, which is widely applied to solar battery, illuminators, optical switches, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), and organic light emitting displays (OLEDs) due to its easy formation on glass substrates, goof optical transmittance, and good conductivity. ITO thin film is generally fabricated by various methods such as spray, CVD, evaporation, electron gun deposition, direct current electroplating, high frequency sputtering, and reactive DC sputtering. However, some problems such as peaks, bumps, large particles, and pin-holes on the surface of ITO thin film were reported, which caused the destruction of color quality, the reduction of device life time, and short-circuit. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) processis one of the suitable solutions which could solve the problems.

Tin-doped indium thin film is outstanding material among transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) materials. ITO thin films show a low electrical resistance(<$10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}{\cdot}m]$) and high transmittance(>80%) in the visible range. ITO thin films usually have been deposited on the glass substrate. In order to apply flexible display, the substrate should have the ability to bend and be deposited without substrate heat. Also properties of ITO thin film depend on what kind of substrate. In this study, we prepared ITO thin film on the polycarbonate (PC) substrate by using Facing Target Sputtering (FTS) system. Before deposition of ITO thin film, PC substrate took plasma surface treatment. The electrical and surface properties of as-deposited thin films were investigated by Hall Effect measurement, UV/VIS spectrometer and the surface property of substrate is investigated by Contact angle measurement.

In this study, AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film were prepared by FTS(Facing Target Sputtering) system. The electrical, optical and crystallographic properties of AZO thin film with $O_2$ gas flow ratio have been investigated. The thickness, transmittance, crystal structure and resistivity of AZO thin film were measured by a-step, UV-VIS spectrometer, XRD and four-point probe, respectively. As a result AZO thin film deposited with the transmittance over 80% and the resistivity about $10^{-1}\Omega-cm$.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) nanopowders were synthesized by coprecipitation and the sol-gel method to prepare a stable dispersion of ITO nano-colloid for antistatic coating of a display panel. The colloidal dispersions were prepared by attrition process with a vibratory milling apparatus using a suitable dispersant in organic solvent. The ITO coating solution was spin-coated on a glass panel followed by the deposition of partially hydrolyzed alkyl silicate as an over-coat layer. The double-layered coating films were characterized by measuring the sheet resistance and reflectance spectrum for antistatic and antireflective properties.

High reliability thin film transistors are important factors for next-generation displays. The reliability of transparent a-IGZO semiconductors is being actively studied for display applications. A plasma treatment can fill the oxygen vacancies in the channel layer and the channel layer/insulating layer interface so that the device can work stably under a bias voltage. This paper studies the effect of plasma treatment on the performance of a-IGZO TFT devices. The influence of different plasma gases on the electrical parameters of device and its working reliability are reviewed. The article mentions argon, fluorine, hydrogen and several ways of processing in the atmosphere. Among these methods, F (fluorine) plasma treatment can maximize equipment reliability. It is expected that the presented results will form a basis for further research to improve the reliability of a-IGZO TFT.

The glass of E-glass fiber composition was fabricated by using refused coal ore which is obtained as by-product from Dogye coal mine in Samcheok. We used silica-alumina refused coal ore which has low carbon content relatively, and the amount of refused coal ore has been changed from 0 to 35 % in batch composition. E-glass was fabricated by the melting of mixed batch materials at $1550^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs with different refused coal ore composition of 0~35 %. We obtained a transparent and clear glass with high visible light transmittance value of 81~84%, thermal expansion coefficient of $5.39{\sim}5.61{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ and softening point of $851{\sim}860^{\circ}C$. The glass fiber samples were also obtained through fiberizing equipment at $1150^{\circ}C$, and tested chemical resistance and tensile strength to evaluate the mechanical property as a reinforced glass fiber of composite material. As the result, we identified the properties of E-glass fiber by using refused coal ore are plenty good enough compare to that of normal E-glass without refused coal ore, and confirmed the possibility of refused coal ore as for the raw material of E-glass fiber.

Charged organic-inorganic composite particles were prepared for the application to electrophoretic display technology such as electronic paper. $TiO_2$ and $Co_3O_4$ particles were used for core particles and were coated with poly(methyl methacrylate) by dispersion polymerization. Composite particles were endowed with charge moiety for electrophoresis; positive charge for $TiO_2$ and negative charge for $Co_3O_4$ composite particles. Scanning electron microscopic results revealed that the charged composite particles have spherical shape. Densities of the composite particles were controlled to be that of medium of electrophoresis. Density of $TiO_2$ particle changed from 4.02 to 1.44 g/$cm^3$ after the polymer coating, and that of $Co_3O_4$ particles changed from 6.11 to 1.49 g/$cm^3$. Urea, melamine, and formaldehyde were used as wall materials for capsule, and microcapsule containing black or white particles inside were prepared by in-situ polymerization. Microcapsule showed the inspection by a video microscope demonstrated the formation of uniform transparent capsules.

Semi-transparent signage based on a controllable LED strip-modules and attached to the window used to provide entertainment contents and the information service to people through optical camera communication (OCC) as well. Also, this work suggests using the camera supplied Head Mounted Device (HMD) as an OCC receiver. The LED attached window signage system structure described in this paper can be utilized in various buildings infrastructure like house, shopping areas, industrial building, etc.

투명전극은 디스플레이, 터치스크린, 태양전지 등 폭넓은 분야에서 응용되고 있어 현재 각광 받는 연구 주제 중 하나이다. 특히, ITO(인듐산화물)을 이용한 투명전극은 뛰어난 효율성 때문에 가장 주목 받고 있는 전극 형태 중 하나이다. 그러나 ITO투명전극은 인듐 소재의 희소성으로 인한 자원고갈문제 및 복원력, 투명도 등에서 취약점을 지니고 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. 이러한 ITO 투명전극의 취약점을 보완하고, 동시에 플렉서블 디스플레이(Flexible Display) 소자에 적용 가능한 대체 투명전극에 관한 연구는 현재 가장 주목할 만한 가치가 있는 연구분야로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대체 투명전극 중 하나로 그래핀 투명전극(Graphene Transparent Electrode)을 주목했다. PEN(Polyethylene Naphthalate) 투명기판 상에 Wet-Transfer형식으로 그래핀을 전사하여 그래핀 투명전극을 구현했으며, 복원력 확인을 위해 그래핀에 2가지 (Compressive/Tensile) 압력을 가하며 구부러짐 실험(Bending Test)을 진행하며 그래핀 투명전극의 저항값을 측정했다. 일반 금속전극의 경우, 일정한 수준 이상의 압력 또는 구부러짐이 반복되는 실험의 횟수가 증가되면 원래의 복원력을 상실하며, 저항값이 상승하는 것으로 보고된바 있다. 그러나 이번 연구에서는 그래핀 투명전극을 사용해 PEN 기판 위에 투명전극을 제작한 경우, 일정한 수준의 구부러짐 반복횟수(~1,000회) 및 구부러짐 정도(~10%) 하에서 저항값이 일정하게 유지됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 별도로, 기존에 알려져 있던 순수 그래핀(Pristine Graphene)의 취약점 중 하나인 높은 저항값을 우려하여 본 연구에서는 그래핀에 도핑을 하고, 그 영향을 분석해 보았다. 그 동안 그래핀 도핑법에 대한 적지않은 연구들이 진행되었으며, 본 연구에서는 TFSA(Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide)라는 물질을 이용한 그래핀 도핑법을 채택했다. 실험 결과, 도핑된 그래핀 투명전극은 위와 같은 수준의 그래핀 본연의 복원력을 유지하면서 저항값은 순수 그래핀 대비 약 70% 정도 낮아짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 그래핀 투명전극이 그래핀 고유의 특성인 높은 투명도와 복원력, 도핑으로 인한 저항값 감소가능성을 확인함으로써, 그래핀 투명전극이 ITO 투명전극의 좋은 대체자가 될 수 있는 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.
