탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 나노 기술의 대표적인 물질로, 나노 크기의 팁 반경과 100:1 이상의 높은 종횡비, 그리고 물리 화학적 안정성 등으로 인해 이상적인 전자 방출원 재료로 여겨져 많은 연구기관들이 CNT를 이용한 응용 소자를 개발하고 있다. 나노 기술을 바탕으로 한 CNT 백 라이트 유닛(BLU)은 CNT에 인가된 전기장에 의해 전자가 방출되고 방출된 전자가 고전압으로 가속되어 형광체를 때려서 발광하는 원리로 작동되며, 면광윈으로서 고정세의 로컬 디밍, 고속 순간 발광에 의한 잔상 제거 등의 장점으로 고품질의 LCD TV에 적용될 수 있으며, 냉음극형광램프와 발광다이오드를 대체할 만한 차세대 BLU로서 뛰어난 특성을 가지고 있다.

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.

LEDs have small size, long lifespan, high reliability, low power consumption and high color efficiency. Using such a characteristics, LED Back Light Unit has been studying actively. This paper proposes LED driver to minimize power consumption due to LED forward voltage($V_F$) difference and temperature rising. Compared to conventional LED driver, the proposed driver have excellent stability, brief structure and linear output voltage of DC-DC boost converter. Proposed LED Driver circuit was designed using 0.35um CMOS technology. And its operation was verified through simulation.

LED BLU(Back Light Unit), based on MCPCB(Metal Core Printed Circuit Board) with anodizing oxide dielectric layer and improved thermal dissipation property, are presented. Reflecting cups were also formed on the surface of the MCPCB such that optical coupling between neighboring chips were minimized for improving the photon extraction efficiency. LED chips were directly attached on the MCPCB by using the COB (Chip On Board) scheme.

In this paper, we address a design problem and a case study of a K-stage back-light-unit(BLU) inspection system, which is composed of K stages, each of which includes an inspection process and a rework process. Assuming the type I, II errors and the inspection-free policy for items classified as good, we determine the smallest integer of K which can achieve a given target defective rate. If K does not exist, holding the current values of the type I, II errors, we search reversely the defective rate of an assembly line and the defective rate of a rework process, to meet the target defective rate. Our formulae and methodology based on a K-stage inspection system could be applied and extended to similar situations with slight modification.

In this work, a coplanar-type plasma flat fluorescent lamp having cross type of electrode was fabricated by screen printing and sealing technique. Cross type of electrode with a dielectric layer were screen-printed on a rear glass plate, and then fired at $550^{\circ}C$. Phosphor was printed on and fired at $450^{\circ}C$. Finally, the lamp was sealed by frit glass at $450^{\circ}C$. The lamp of cross electrode type was studied depending on the electrode gap and the thickness of dielectric layer.

In this study, flat fluorescent lamps (FFLs) having surface discharge structures was fabricated by screen printing technique and were studied using spectraradiometer and square pulse power supply. Two types of FFLs having different shapes of electrodes (crosstype and line-type structure) were compared with variation of discharge shape and mixed gas ratio.

In this paper, Experimental results on the measurement of mechanical properties of fine patterns in the MEMS structure are described. The mechanical properties of embossing patterns on metallic thin foil is measured using the nano indentation system, that is developed by Korea Institute of Industrial Technology(KITECH). These micro embossing patterns are fabricated using CIP(Cold Isostatic Press) process on micro metallic thin foils(Al-1100) that are made by rolling process. These embossing patterned metallic thin foils(Al-1100) are used in the reflecting plate of BLU(Back Light Unit) and electrical/mechanical MEMS components. If these mechanical properties of fine patterns are utilized in a design procedure, the optimal design can be achieved in aspects of reliability as well as economy.
