본 논문에서는 p-type 고분자 물질인 P3HT (Poly-3-hexylthiophene)를 잉크젯 프린팅 방식으로 활성화층을 적층함으로써 Organic thin film transistor를 제작하여 이에 대한 특성을 연구하였다. Piezoelectric 방식의 잉크젯 프린팅을 이용하여 P3HT single drop jetting 시 두께 $150{\sim}200{\AA}$, 직경 약 70 ~ 80 um정도의 drop profile을 얻을 수 있었다. P3HT의 solvent로서 Chlorobenzene을 사용하여 농도 약 0.5 wt.%의 Ink-jet용 ink를 제작하여 이를 Channel Width 37, 236 um 크기의 Au 전극 위에 jetting 하여 각각의 특성을 측정하였다. 상기 실험은 상온의 외부환경에서 실시되었으며 실험 결과 최대 ${\mu}=1{\times}10^{-2}\;cm^2/Vsec$, $I_{on}/I_{off}=10^3{\sim}10^4$ 정도로서 off current가 높은 편이나 이동도 측면에서는 다른 방법의 박막 증착 실험결과와 비교할 때 동등 수준의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper presents the pattern characteristic using the electrostatic drop-on-demand ink-jet printing system. In order to achieve the pattern characteristic of electrostatic inkjet printing, the capillary inkjet head system is fabricated using capillary tube, Pt wire and electrode, and is packaged by acrylic board for the accurate alignment between wire and electrode-hole. The applied DC voltage of 1.4 $\sim$ 2.0 kV used for the observation of electrostatic droplet ejection. Electrostatic droplet ejection is directly observed using a high-speed camera. For investigated pattern characteristic, conductive inkjet silver ink used. The higher voltage has a good condition which has micro dripping mode. Also, the droplet size decreases with increasing the supplied DC voltage. This paper shows the pattern which is formed by about 300um. Also, capillary inkjet head system will be applied industrial area comparing conventional electrostatic inkjet head system.

We enhanced the conductivity of PEDOT-PSS by mixing with glycerol and fabricated the low contact resistance of source and drain[S/D] electrodes of OTFT with PEDOT-PSS by ink-jetting printing. The contact resistance was much smaller by seven times than Au with $200k{\Omega}$ at $V_G=-5V$. For the bottom contacted OTFTs, the performance was comparable to OTFTs with Au electrodes with the field effect mobility of $0.2\;cm^2/V s$.

In this study, ink-jet technology is applied to the emitter fabrication for surface-conduction electron-emitter display (SED). The general emiiter material of SED, palladium oxide (PdO), is prepared by calcination the mixture of solvent and precursors of platinum chlorine and platinum nitrate. With controlling the precursors and solvents, the PdO is formed below $400^{\circ}C$ which is required for SED process.

We have developed the synthesis method to reduce the surface oxide layer in Cu nanoparticle, which is based on controlling the molecular weight of capping polymer. In addition, we demonstrated how the variation of oxide layer thickness influences the resistivity of conductive Cu film.

UV-curable electrolytes inks were prepared by dissolving [2-[(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl]propylaminium bromide (MEPAB), 1,5-[bis(2-methacryloxyethyl)dimethyl ammono]penthane dibromide (MDAPD), hexafunctional reactive oligomer (SP1013), trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and a photoinitiator in methanol/2-methoxyethanol. The compositions of the electrolyte inks were MEPAB/MDAPD/SP1013/TMPTA=6/24/17.2/12.8, 15/15/17.2/12.8 and 24/6/17.2/12.8. Humid-membranes were deposited on a gold electrode/alumina electrode using an ink-jet printer equipped with a UV lamp followed by immediate UV curing. The humidity-sensing characteristics including hysteresis, frequency and temperature dependence, response time and water durability were estimated.

We investigated the influence of organic solvents on the droplet properties of 6,13-bis (triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene), which was used for semiconductor of organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) and deposited by ink jet printing. From the result of the investigation, the conditions of a suitable solvent is that boiling point should be above $200^{\circ}C$ to reduce coffee stain and the surface tension above 32 dyn/cm to decrease the droplet size. Consequently, we selected tetralin which have a high boiling point ($207^{\circ}C$) and high surface tension (34.3 dyn/cm) as the solvent for TIPS-pentacene, and applied it to OTFTs. In fabrication process the conventional bank process employing photolithography and etching process was replaced by ink jet printed bank process, resulting in simplifying the process. Especially, polyvinylphenol was used for the bank, and the high hydrophobicity could improve the confinement of TIPS molecules inside the bank, enhancing the performance over the conventional hydrophilic polyvinylalcohol bank. The mobility was $0.18\;cm^2/Vs$, current on/off ratio $2.09{\times}10^5$, subthreshold slope 0.42 V/dec, and off state current $0.049\;pA/{\mu}m$.

The purpose of this research is to control proper processing condition of RGB photo resistant in the ink-jet process increasing processing ability by adding additives. The viscosities of modified RGB photo resistant were $10{\sim}14cps$ and the additives could decreased agglomeration and flowing trace of photo resistant effectively. Another way, the adhesion between photo resistant and glass substrate was improved by modifying photo resistant and substrate. The surface tensions of modified photo resistant were same as that of original RGB photo resistant. The additives appeared a better compatibility with photo resistant, and the micelle of photo resistant did not be broken during modified process.

In recent years, the application of digital textile printing has increased. The benefits of using this method include the ease of sampling and the production of printed textiles. However, the production process of digital textile printing differs from that of conventional printing. For successful digital textile printing by ink-jet technology, the pretreatment of fabrics is very important in order to overcome the following problems. Low viscosity ink can spread easily on the textile surface leading to poor resolution. As a result, the combination of ink and pretreatment chemicals is still impractical and consequently most fabrics used in digital textile printing will require a pre treated coating in order to prevent the ink colours from bleeding on the fabric. Research presented in this paper shows some preliminary attempts to establish the relationship between the pre treatment and the digital textile printing quality. Various cotton fabrics were treated with pre treatment agents including ingredients like thickener, alkali and humectant, and then ink spread effect and colour yield of printed fabrics by reactive ink were analysed by using an optical microscope and K/S value. The results show that digital textile printing quality on cotton fabrics can be optimized with appropriate pre treatments.
