The competitiveness of the manufacturing company is evaluated in terms of line productivity, quality cost, inventory level, logistics efficiency, and so on. The productivity is defined by the number of products divided by the number of workers within the given operation time. Increasing the productivity is not easy to man-operated situation in the line, since it heavily depends on the standard time of the workers. This paper deals with the productivity of the Back Light Unit assembler for TFT-LCD, and proposes the methodology of investigating the optimal process by simulation of Arena.

Light Guide Plate (LGP) of LCD-BLU(Back Light Unit) is manufactured by forming optical pattern with $5\~100um$ in diameter on the LGP by means of sand blasting or etching method. However, in order to improve the luminance of LCD-LGP, the design of optical pattern has introduced UV inclined-exposure process in this study. This micro-optical pattern, which has asymmetric elliptical column shaped pattern, can change low viewing-angle to high viewing-angle, as well as it contribute to diffusion of light. As a result, this type of micro-optical pattern can introduce the highly luminance. The PR structure obtained in the stage of lithography has asymmetric elliptical column shape and it is processed into a micro-optical pattern. Optical design with this kind of micro-optical pattern, mold fabrication by electroplating and LGP molding with injection molding are under way.

LCD를 TV 향으로 적용하기 위해서는 몇 가지 해결해야만 하는 문제가 있으며, 이중 하나가 동화상 재생시에 발생하는 잔상현상의 해결이다. LCD는 기존의 CRT와 같은 불연속 자발광 소자가 아니라, 연속수광소자로서, 잔상현상이 치명적인 약점으로 나타난다. 기종의 Monitor 대응품에서는 실제로 Monitor를 통해서 사용자가 관찰하는 이미지 정보가 정지화상 중심으로 구성되어 있기 때문에 문제가 되지 않았으나, TV의 경우 연속적인 동화상만을 취급하고 있어, 잔상현상의 해결 없이는 TV 향 제품에 적용할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 잔상현상을 근본적으로 없애기 위해서 LCD를 CRT와 같이 불연속적의 분절적 이미지로 구동하는 방법을 실험하였으며, VIDEO 입력 신호에 대해서 16.7msec의 1Frame을 기준으로 점등 구간과 비점등 구간을 6:4로 나누어 BL(Back Light)을 점멸하는 방법을 구현하였다. 또한 종래의 CCFL(cold Cathod Flourescent Lamp)로는 점멸 속도에 대한 대응이 불가하므로, 이를 해결하기 위해서 광원의 형광체에 대해서 잔광시간특성의 개선도 동시에 실시하였다. 실험 결과 육안 및 사진촬영에서 잔상없는 화면을 얻을 수 있었으며, 응답파형 측정 결과 CRT 측정시와 마찬가지로 분절적인 이미지의 생성이 가능한 것을 알 수 있었다.

CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp)는 LCD의 BLU와 특수조명용으로 널리 활용되고 있다. CCFL 제조공정에 있어 CCFL 전극 산화막이 형성되어 솔더 불량을 가져오기 때문에 산화 막 제거가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 CCFL 전극 산화 막 제거를 위하여 플라즈마 처리를 수행하였다. 플라즈마 처리 최적 공정 확보하기위하여 면 저항, XRD, AFM, 솔더링 테스트 등의 분석이 진행되었다. 플라즈마 최적 공정 조건인 사용전력 600W와 처리시간 70초에서 최소의 면 저항과 최대의 솔더 피복 비율이 측정되었다. 이와 같은 현상은 플라즈마 처리로 구리 산화 막 제거에 기인한 것으로 확인되어 플라즈마를 이용한 전극 산화 막 제거 공정은 CCFL 전극 처리 공정에 활용이 기대된다.

A product system will be improved continually until requirements are satisfied. It is true that considering alternative designs to improve product system is hard work; it is also true that selecting an adequate design idea that represents the needs of stakeholders concerned and meets effectiveness factors properly is not an easy work, either. In the process of driv-ing an idea and designing, which is called Design Phase, there are lots of existing tools for testing the driven idea in DFSS. But, those kinds of tools do not offer the function that helps to select the technically better design idea among alternative design ideas that have the same evaluation level. Moreover it is inappropriate to select adequate alternative design ideas by just verifying only the evaluation table in pugh matrix, since satisfied deviation val-ues are low when there is a too competitive mass product system in a market. Also, for the IT product with short life cycle, faster and more effective testing tool is needed. Therefore, the 'roduct quality index' is suggested in order to select an appropriate candidate design concept for system development that meets requirements by using 'deality concept' pro-vided by TRIZ. According to the result of this research, it is possible to select technically better idea fast and effectively; it is confirmed by applying the approach to the case of LCD BLU (Back Light Unit).

TFT-LCD is the most popular type of flat display panel in the information technology field. The back light unit is a main part of the structure of a TFT-LCD panel. Occasionally, studies have shown that failures of the CCFL of the BLU occur due to the poor weld characteristics of these materials. The aim of this study was to prepare some technical data and to characterize a microjoined electrode for the CCFL. Microstructure examinations, microhardness measurements, resistance measurements and microtensile tests of the microjoined electrode were carried out. The result indicates that a large amount of grain coarsening exists in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of the weld between the cup and the pin. This grain coarsening of the HAZ between the cup and pin is caused by the welding cycle, which may have an influence on the lowest microhardness values. Fracturing of the microjoined electrode also occurred at the HAZ close to the cup between the weld holding the cup and the pin. Additionally, no specific changes of the electrical resistance among the cup, pin, and lead wire themselves or in the microjoined electrode were observed.

Recently, products of electronic industry and related parts are required to have the thickness thinner and thinner to reduce the part weight. To go with this trend, LGP(light guide plate) of LCD-BLU(Liquid Crystal Display-Back Light Unit: It is one of kernel parts of LCD) for cell phone has the thickness of ${\sim}0.3mm$ and the battery case of cell phone has ${\sim}0.25mm$. Accordingly, high speed injection molding is required to mold products which have thinner parts. To achieve high speed injection and proper control of hydraulic unit, various design was applied to conventional injection unit. In the present paper, we concentrated on the molding stability of hydro-mechanical high speed injection machine to make an LGP of 0.3mm thickness.

LGP (light guide plate) of LCD-BLU (Liquid Crystal Display - Back Light Unit) is one of the major components which affects the product quality of LCD. In the present study, the optical patterns of LGP(2.2") are manufactured by three different methods, namely, laser ablation, chemical etching and LiGA - reflow, respectively. The pattern surface images and roughness of mold and product were compared to check the optical characteristics. From the results of measurement the optical patterns fabricated by LiGA - reflow method showed the best geometric structure as intended in design and the lowest roughness among those.

Microlens patterned micro-mold fabrication method for Light Guiding Plate(LGP), kernel part of LCD-BLU(Back Light Unit), was presented. Instead of erosion dot pattern for LCP optical design, microlens pattern, fabricated by LIGA-reflow process, was applied. Optical pattern design method was also developed not only for negative pattern LGP, but also positive pattern LGP. In order to achieve flow balance during the micro-injection molding process and dimensional accuracy, two LGP pattern was made in one micro-mold.
