Multi-head Inkjet Patterning System for Manufacturing a Full Color Polymer Light Emitting Device (pLED)
고분자 유기 EL 제조를 위한 멀티헤드형 잉크젯 패터닝 시스템
Abstract
According to the increase of lifetime and efficiency, the interest in the pLED has dramatically increased recently because pLED can be applied to large-size and flexible displays. The core process in the manufacture of pLED is the printing process of red, green and blue light emitting polymers (LEP), and inkjet printing method is one of the promising technology to print red, green and blue LEP on glass substrates. In this work, we developed a multi-head inkjet patterning system with 3 heads for each color. The developed inkjet patterning system is composed of the precise positioning system, head controller circuit, real-time ink drop evaluation system, maintenance system, and stable ink supply system. Finally, we investigated the stability and reliability of the system by printing red, green and blue LEP on the dummy substrate.
