Different from the LCD that have two glass substrates on the top and the bottom, EPD have an advantage that is using the bottom glass substrate and the top e-ink sheet. So, it is impossible to apply R or C type TSP that need bottom and top glass plane. We successfully implemented the TSP (Touch Screen Panel) based on the light over the EPD (Electro Phoretic Display).

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate types and characteristics of chemical substances used in LCD(Liquid crystal display) panel manufacturing process. Methods: The LCD panel manufacturing process is divided into the fabrication(fab) process and module process. The use of chemical substances by process was investigated at four fab processes and two module processes at two domestic TFT-LCD(Thin film transistor-Liquid crystal display) panel manufacturing sites. Results: LCD panels are manufactured through various unit processes such as sputtering, chemical vapor deposition(CVD), etching, and photolithography, and a range of chemicals are used in each process. Metal target materials including copper, aluminum, and indium tin oxide are used in the sputtering process, and gaseous materials such as phosphine, silane, and chlorine are used in CVD and dry etching processes. Inorganic acids such as hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid are used in wet etching process, and photoresist and developer are used in photolithography process. Chemical substances for the alignment of liquid crystal, such as polyimides, liquid crystals, and sealants are used in a liquid crystal process. Adhesives and hardeners for adhesion of driver IC and printed circuit board(PCB) to the LCD panel are used in the module process. Conclusions: LCD panels are produced through dozens of unit processes using various types of chemical substances in clean room facilities. Hazardous substances such as organic solvents, reactive gases, irritants, and toxic substances are used in the manufacturing processes, but periodic workplace monitoring applies only to certain chemical substances by law. Therefore, efforts should be made to minimize worker exposure to chemical substances used in LCD panel manufacturing process.

This paper deals with the algorithm development that inspects defects such as Bright Defect Dots, Dark Defect Dots, and Line Defect caused by the process of LCD(Liquid Crystal Display). While most of LCD production process is automated, the inspection of LCD panel and its appearance depends on manual process. So, the quality of the inspection is affected by the condition of worker. Especially, the more LCD size increases, the more the worker feels fatigued, which causes the probability of miss judgement. So, the automated inspection is required to manage the consistent quality of the product and reduce the production costs. In this paper, to solve these problems, we developed the imaging processing algorithm to inspect the defects in captured image of LCD. Experimental results reveal that we can recognize various types of defect of LCD with good accuracy and high speed.

현재 사용하는 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) 장치는 비발광형 LCD장치를 사용하므로 외부광원이 필요하다. 투과형 LCD의 경우는 Panel의 뒷면이나 측면에 전용광원(Backlight unit)을 사용하여 빛을 투과시킴으로서 발광할 수 있도록 하는 방법을 사용한다. 현재는 이러한 투과명을 사용하는 것이 일반화되는 추세로 광원을 LCD전면으로 효율적으로 반사하는 Panel의 뒷면을 설계하는 다양한 방법이 개발되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 최적화된 설계를 위한 모델링 도구(Modeling Tool)와 주어진 광원으로부터 LCD 전면으로 출력되는 광량의 분포를 예측하는 시뮬레이터(Simulator)를 제안한다.

A typical honeycomb sandwich panel consists of two thin, high-strength facings bonded to a thick, light-weight core. Each component by itself is relatively weak and flexible, but when it combined in a sandwich panel they produce a structure that is stiff, strong, and lightweight. To prove the suitability the honeycomb sandwich structure with prepreg, the mechanical properties of the skin materials and honeycomb sandwich structure were evaluated with the static strength tests. Accordingly, the honeycomb sandwich structure made by autoclave process is available for a panel on LCD/PDP assembly line.

Each LCD TFT panel requires a power supply IC on the panel board. The IC provides the power rails for the timing controller, source and gated driver IC and others. The industry trend moves towards higher integrated devices. The challenge for the panel manufacturer is the development and implementation of such an IC in cooperation with the semiconductor supplier. If not done carefully the solution will not reduce the overall solution cost or can't provide the expected performance and reliability. This paper discusses the key considerations to successfully develop and integrate a highly integrated LCD bias IC into the system.

In order to realize a stable rubbing process for the liquid crystal panel, the authors investigated the quantitative evaluation method of rubbing process uniformity. The proposed method focuses on the relationship between the image quality of the LCD panel for gray scale images and the rubbing uniformity. The proposed method indicates rubbing uniformity using quantitative parameters of spots and hairlines on the LCD panel.

As time goes by, the market demand increases and each LCD panel manufacturing company makes every effort to produce more panels in a limited time. It is necessary to reduce the cost and time of production for the improvement of productivity in manufacturing companies. The increased speed of thin films growth used in the TFT process brings improvement of productivity but it is also accompanied by a drop in display quality due to a characteristic change of the thin film. So in our dissertation, we deal with the increased speed of a-Si layer growth and the proportioned a drop in characteristic quality. We discuss a drop in display quality by a characteristic change of a-Si layer and we propose a counter-plan through panel design improvement. We have already applied our plan to the 15" XGA panel and confirmed the improved result.

Recently, mura defect inspection techniques are receiving attention in LCD production procedure since demands of TFT-LCD are growing. In this paper, we propose an automatic mura defect inspection method using gabor wavelet transform and DCT. First, we generate a reference panel image using DCT based method. For original panel image and generated reference panel image, we apply a gabor wavelet transform to eliminate texture information in images. Then, we extract mura defect regions from the difference image between gabor wavelet transform image of original panel and generated reference panel image. Finally, all mura defect regions are quantified to detect accurate mura defects. Experimental results show that our method is more accurate and efficient than previous methods.
