This study analyzed concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced from incineration of papers at $600^{\circ}C$. The papers used in this study included A4 papers (new, printed with ink-jet, printed with carbon), newspapers (printed with bean oil, printed with a general newspaper ink), packaging box, document envelope, single-use paper cup, and cosmetic tissue. Papers were heated from room temperature upto $600^{\circ}C$ providing air inside of the electric furnace and then they were oxidized for 80 minutes at $600^{\circ}C$ maintaining the same air supply. VOCs emitted from the incineration process were sampled using an air sampling pump and bags for 160 minutes and then the components and concentrations of the VOCs were analyzed by a CC-MS. The most prominent chemical structure of the Vous identified from incineration of the papers was furans and then furans were followed by aromatics and aliphatic alkenes. About 40% of the identified VOCs contained double bonds, which have relatively a high ozone (ground level) formation potential, within their molecular structure. Also, some cancer suspecting compounds like benzene, dichlorormethane and chloroform were identified.

In this paper we analyzed the effects of polystyrene(PS) blended in TIPS-pentacene on the performance of OTFTs. With the various molecular weight and the content of PS the performance of TIPS-pentacene OTFTs was examined and the proper molecular weight and the content were extracted for the best results. With the molecular weight of 9,580 and 0.3 wt% of PS OTFTs produced the mobility of $1.0{\pm}0.19cm^2/V{\cdot}sec$, the subthreshold slope $0.22{\pm}0.05$ V/dec, the threshold voltage $-1.19{\pm}1.21$ V, the current on/of ratio $7.12{\pm}2.09{\times}10^6$. Additionally the suitable substrate temperature for ink jet printing of the blended TIPS-pentacene OTFTs was also extracted and it was $46^{\circ}C$.

Recently, a variety of printing technologies, including ink jet, gravure, and roll-to-roll (R2R) printing, has generated intensive interest in the application of flexible and wearable electronic devices. However, the actual use of printing technique is much limited because the sintering process of the printed nanoparticle inks remains as a huge practical drawback. In the fabrication of the conductive metal film, a post-sintering process is required to achieve high conductivity of the printed film. The conventional thermal sintering takes considerable sintering times, and requires high temperatures. For application to flexible devices, the sintering temperature should be as low as possible to minimize the damage of polymer substrate. Several alternative sintering methods were suggested, such as laser, halogen lamp, infrared, plasma, ohmic, microwave, and etc. Eventually, the new sintering technique should be applicable to large area, R2R, and polymer substrate as well as low cost. This article reviews progress in recent technologies for several sintering methods. The advantages and disadvantages of each technology will be reviewed. Several issues for the application in R2R process are discussed.

Recently many devices print electronic images in a variety of ways. The reproduced color, however, is different from the original color because of the difference of hardware characteristics. To maintain device independent color, gamut mapping method is proposed. The proposed color gamut mapping uses nonlinear intensity mapping and clipping for saturation mapping on HSI color space. In the dithering operation, expanded nonlinear ordered dithering and modified error diffusion are proposed. The proposed ordered dithering uses expanded nonlinear quantization which considers overlapping phenomena of neighbored printing dots. In the modified error diffusion, quantization errors to be diffused are adjusted to improve both image blur and color change produced in the error diffusion. So, the printed image is similar to the image of monitor. Our results indicate that proposed algorithm can produce high quality image in the low bit color devices.

가시광역에서 80% 이상의 높은 투과율과 전기전도성을 동시에 갖는 투명전도성 산화물(TCO) 박막은 LCD, PDP, OLED, 태양전지 등의 다양한 분야에 투명전극재료로서 사용되고 있다. 이들 TCO 박막은 Magnetron sputtering, Chemical vapor deposition, Pulse laser deposition, Ink jet등과 같은 다양한 방법으로 증착할 수 있지만, 대면적의 기판에 균일한 박막형성 및 박막과 기판의 높은 부착력등 양산성의 관점에서 우월성을 가지고 있기 때문에 생산라인에서는 DC magnetron sputtering법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 이 경우, 산화물 박막의 미세구조, 내부응력, 광학적 및 전기적 특성은 스퍼터링 과정에서 발생하는 고에너지 입자들의 기판입사 충격에 크게 의존하기 때문에 고품질의 TCO박막을 제작하기 위해서는 증착공정인자들의 제어는 매우 중요한 것으로 알려져 있다. 대표적 TCO박막재료로서 $In_2O_3$계, ZnO계 및 $SnO_2$계를 들 수 있으며, 이들 중에서 Sn을 $In_2O_3$에 치환고용시킨 ITO박막의 경우, 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 상대적으로 우수하기 때문에 실용화 TCO박막으로서 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 한편, Flexible display의 경우, 유연성의 폴리머기판위에 증착되는 TCO박막에 대하여 요구되는 특성으로는 높은 투과율 및 낮은 비저항은 물론, 박막표면의 평활도 (낮은 표면조도), bending에 대한 높은 기계적 특성 (낮은 내부응력), 수분침투에 대한 높은 barrier특성 및 저온공정 등을 들 수 있다. 그러나 높은 전기전도도를 가지는 ITO박막을 제작하기 위해서는 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 증착온도가 필요하며, 이때 얻어진 다결정의 ITO박막은 높은 표면조도 및 bending시에 낮은 기계적 내구성이 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 한편, 기판가열 없이 증착한 비정질 ITO박막은 낮은 표면조도, 높은 엣칭속도 및 양호한 식각특성을 나타내지만, 상대적으로 높은 비저항 및 기판과의 낮은 부착력 등이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 본 강연에서는 비정질 ITO박막의 결정화 온도 (약 $160^{\circ}C$) 이상에서도 비정질 구조를 유지하기 때문에 낮은 표면조도와 높은 엣칭속도를 가지면서 상대적으로 전기적 특성과 기계적 내구성이 개선된 새로운 고온형 비정질 TCO박막에 대한 최근의 연구성과를 소개하고자 한다.

We report a novel structure for a full-color AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) eliminating the patterning process of a blue emitting layer. The patterning of the three primary colors, RGB, is a key technology in the OLED fabrication process. Conventional full color AMOLED containing RGB layers includes the three opportunities of the defects to make an accurate position and fine resolution using various technologies such as fine metal mask, ink-jet printing and laser-induced transfer system. We can skip the blue patterning step by simply stacking the blue layer as a common layer to the whole active area after pixelizing two primary colors, RG, in the conventional small molecular OLED structure. The red and green pixel showed equivalent performances without any contribution of the blue emission.

A 7-year-old spayed female Welsh corgi presented with a mass of the skull. The mass was diagnosed as multilobular bone tumor and surgically removed. To treat a large bone defect after the tumor removal, custom-made artificial bone fabricated by a 3-dimensional ink-jet printer was implanted in the defect. Follow-up computed tomography evaluation was performed for 4.3 years. The implant was well integrated with the skull and had covered the large bone defect during the follow-up period. Gradual degradation of the implant began 6 weeks after surgery. It provides an additional option for the treatment of large bone defect.

Future electronics such as electronic paper and foldable cellphone are required to be flexible and transparent and should have a high performance. In order to fabricate the flexible electronics using flexibility transfer process, techniques for transferring various devices from rigid substrate onto flexible substrate by elastomeric stamp, have been developed. Adhesion between the elastomeric stamp and various devices is crucial for successful transfer process. The adhesion can be controlled by the thickness of the stamp, separation velocity, contact load, and stamp surface treatment. In this study, we fabricated the bump shape stamp consisting of a UV-curable polymer and investigated the effects of curing condition, separation velocity, and contact load on the adhesion characteristics of bumps. The bumps with hemispherical shape were fabricated using a dispensing process, which is one of the ink-jet printing techniques. Curing conditions of the bumps were controlled by the amount of UV irradiation energy. The adhesion characteristics of bumps are evaluated by adhesion test. The results show that the pull-off forces of bumps were increased and decreased as UV irradiation energy increased. For UV irradiation energies of 300 and 500 mJ/cm², the pull-off forces were increased as the separation velocity increased. The pull-off forces also increased with the increase of contact load. In the case of UV irradiation energy above 600 mJ/cm², however, the pull-off forces were not changed. Therefore, we believe that the bump shape stamp can be applied to roll-based transfer process and selective transfer process as an elastomeric stamp.
