  • Advanced mobile communication devices require a bright, high information content display in a small, light-weight, low power consumption package. In this paper we will outline our progress towards developing such a low power consumption active-matrix flexible OLED ($FOLED^{TM}$) display. Our work in this area is focused on three critical enabling technologies. The first is the development of a high efficiency long-lived phosphorescent OLED ($PHOLED{TM}$) device technology, which has now proven itself to be capable of meeting the low power consumption performance requirements for mobile display applications. Secondly, is the development of flexible active matrix backplanes, and for this our team are employing poly-Si TFTs formed on metal foil substrates as this approach represents an attractive alternative to fabricating poly-Si TFTs on plastic for the realization of first generation flexible active matrix OLED displays. Unlike most plastics, metal foil substrates can withstand a large thermal load and do not require a moisture and oxygen permeation barrier. Thirdly, the key to reliable operation is to ensure that the organic materials are fully encapsulated in a package designed for repetitive flexing. We also present progress in operational lifetime of encapsulated T-PHOLED pixels on planarized metal foil and discuss PHOLED encapsulation strategy.

  • Advanced mobile communication devices require a bright, high information content display in a small, light-weight, low power consumption package. For portable applications flexible (or conformable) and rugged displays will be the future. In this paper we outline our progress towards developing such a low power consumption active-matrix flexible OLED $(FOLED^{TM})$ display. We demonstrate full color 100 ppi QVGA active matrix OLED displays on flexible stainless steel substrates. Our work in this area is focused on integrating three critical enabling technologies. The first technology component is based on UDC's high efficiency long-lived phosphorescent OLED $(PHOLED^{TM})$ device technology, which has now been commercially demonstrated as meeting the low power consumption performance requirements for mobile display applications. Secondly, is the development of flexible active-matrix backplanes, and for this our team are employing PARC's Excimer Laser Annealed (ELA) poly-Si TFTs formed on metal foil substrates as this approach represents an attractive alternative to fabricating poly-Si TFTs on plastic for the realization of first generation flexible active matrix OLED displays. Unlike most plastics, metal foil substrates can withstand a large thermal load and do not require a moisture and oxygen permeation barrier. Thirdly, the key to reliable operation is to ensure that the organic materials are fully encapsulated in a package designed for repetitive flexing, and in this device we employ a multilayer thin film Barix encapsulation technology in collaboration with Vitex systems. Drive electronics and mechanical packaging are provided by L3 Displays.

  • In this paper we describe solutions to address critical challenges in direct fabrication of amorphous silicon thin film transistor (TFTs) arrays for active matrix flexible displays. For all flexible substrates a manufacturable handling protocol in automated display-scale equipment is required. For metal foil substrates the principal challenges are planarization and electrical isolation, and management of stress (CTE mismatch) during TFT fabrication. For plastic substrates the principal challenge is dimensional instability management.

  • Hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si:H TFTs) were fabricated on a flexible metal substrate at $150\;^{\circ}C$. To increase the stability of the flexible a-Si:H TFTs, they were thermally annealed at $230\;^{\circ}C$. The field effect mobility was reduced because of the strain in a- Si:H TFT under thermal annealing.

  • We are standing at the beginning of the industrialization of flexible thin-film transistor backplanes. An important group of candidates is based on silicon thin films made on metal or plastic foils. The main features of amorphous, nanocrystalline and microcrystalline silicon films for TFTs are summarized, and their compatibility with foil substrate materials is discussed.

  • We have developed a 2 inch LTPS-TFT AMOLED display with a top emission structure on a $50-{\mu}m-thick$ metal foil. The Active matrix back planes were fabricated with the p-channel LTPS TFT with a conventional pixel circuit consisting of 2 transistors and 1 capacitance. The p-channel TFTs on the metal foil exhibited the field-effect mobility of $22cm^2/Vs$. Finally, a images from prototype monochrome AMOLED displays are successfully presented, with $64{\times}88$ pixels and 56-ppi resolution.

  • 대부분의 유연전기소자는 플라스틱, 옷감, 종이와 같이 고온에 민감한 물질이기 때문에 열에 민감한 기판 위에 금속을 증착하고 패터닝할 수 있는 저온 공정의 개발이 필요하다. 최근 기존의 광식각과 진공증착 방법을 이용하지 않고 액상으로 금속 나노입자의 박막을 형성하고 선택적 레이저 소결을 이용하여 플라스틱에 열적손상을 최소화하고 고해상도의 금속 패터닝을 방법이 많은 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 본 연구실에서 활발히 수행중인 나노물질의 선택적 레이저소결법을 이용하여 유연 디스플레이와 유연태양전지와 같은 유연전기소자의 개발 동향에 대해 알아보고 앞으로의 발전방향에 대해 논의한다.

  • The key development issues in the flexible displays are TFT backplane technology for their various applications, which requires competitive device performance as well as its low temperature process. In this paper, with shortly reviewing recent flexible display development status, we describe technical trends of low-temperature a-Si TFTs. Our TFTs show good device characteristics enough to apply LCD and electrophoretic display.
