OLED has many advantages of low voltage operation, self radiation, light weight, thin thickness, wide view angle and fast response time to overcome existing liquid crystal display (LCD)'s weakness. Therefore, It draws attention as promising display and has already developed for manufactured goods. Also, OLED is regarded as a only substitute of flexible display with a thin display. A considerable portion of the light originating film emissive centers buried in a solid film never escapes due to internal reflection at the air-film interface and is scattered as edge emission or dissipated within the solid film This is one of the major reasons why the luminous power efficiency of OLED remains low, in spite of research progress in OLED. Although several ways of overcoming this difficulty have been reported, no comprehensive method has been proposed yet. In this paper, we propose that use of anti-reflective coating layers.

A 14.1-inch reflective type Thin Film Transistor-Electric Phoretic Display was developed at the esolution of 1280 x 900 lines on plastic substrate. All of the processes of TFT were carried out below $100\;^{\circ}C$ on PES plastic films. The process conditions of TFT were optimized for large area TFT-LCD on plastic substrate. At $60^{\circ}C$ high temperature during 160hours, TFT does not delaminate and IV characteristic is also satisfied.

We have designed transflective liquid crystal display(LCD) associated with in-plane switching of a LC director driven by fringe-field, unlike other LCD mode. Reflective area consists of a λ/2 compensation film and a LC cell with retardation value(dΔn) of λ/4 with their optic axes making an angle of 15$^{\circ}$ and 75$^{\circ}$ against polarizer, respectively. In the transmissive area, top and bottom polarizers are parallel each other, an LC has a dΔn of λ/2, and another λ/2 compensation film is inserted between the LC cell and bottom polarizer. With the configuration, both devices show dark state initially. When an incident light is 550nm, the device shows wide-viewing-angle characteristics such that in the reflective area the contrast ratio target than 5 exists up to 55$^{\circ}$ of polar angle in all directions and in transmissive area it exists about 100$^{\circ}$ in vortical direction and 110$^{\circ}$ in horizontal direction.

We have performed computer simulation and experiment to obtain electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned nematic (R-HAN) cell driven by fringe field, in which the cell consists of polarizer, optical compensation film, LC layer and reflector. Conventional R-HAN cell driven by fringe field using only the LC layer shows high wavelength dispersion at dark-state and thus viewing angle characteristic is strongly wavelength-dependent. In order to improve this demerit, we added one optical compensation film to conventional R-HAN cell. The display with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion at dark-state and exhibits a wide viewing angle without the occurrence of grey scale inversion over a wide range of viewing angles and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about 120$^{\circ}$ in vortical direction and 160$^{\circ}$in horizontal direction. Experimental results show good agreements with theoretical results and fast response time.

Researches about micro technology travel lively in these days. Such many researches are concentrated in the field of materials and a process field. But properties of micro materials should be known to give results of research developed into still more. In these various material properties, reliability data such as mechanical, optical, thermal property, etc is the basic property. In this paper, it is measured that is material properties of main BLU(Back Light Unit) components in LCD(Liquid Crystal Display). The pattern shape of prism sheet, diffuser film and reflective plate are measured by variable 3D scanning equipments. It is researched which is the method to measure an optimal 3D pattern shape in each components.

We have performed computer simulation to obtain electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal displays driven by fringe field. The results show that the optimal retardation value of the cell is $0.289{\mu}m$, which allows for the cell to have a practical cell gap of larger than $3{\mu}m$ when manufacturing. A reflectance of the dark state is only 0.114% for an incident light 550nm. At this condition, the light efficiency of white state reaches 92.7%. Further, we have studied a new reflective display with polarizer, optical compensation with half plate, LC plus reflector. The display with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about $120^{\circ}$ in vertical direction and $160^{\circ}$ in horizontal direction.

We have developed the 12.1" SVGA reflective type color TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display) with the high aperture ratio and well designed reflector for the applications such as mini note PC, Note PC and electronic book. The panel shows the high reflectance(30%) and contrast ratio(20:1) resulted from optimizing the optical films and designing the embossing shaped reflector. By improving the chromacity, the color reproducibility was increased up to 20%. As removing the backlight unit, we reduced the power consumption, thickness and weight of the panel to 0.8W, 2.2mm, and 250gram, respectively. According to the above performances, we have obtained fabrication process for mass production, and furthermore, could have access to fast market launching.

An inverse-twisted-nematic (ITN) transflective (TRF) liquid crystal (LC) display, where two imprinted optical films (IOFs) with surface microstructures are embedded was developed. One of the IOFs serves as an in-cell patterned retarder with multioptic axes, and the other behaves as a viewing-angle enhancement film. In the presence of an applied voltage, the surface microstructures on the IOFs provide the spontaneous twist of the LC from a vertically aligned state to a $90^{\circ}$ twisted-nematic (TN) state in the transmissive part, and to a $45^{\circ}$ TN state in the reflective part. The developed ITN TRF LC display exhibits high transmission and reflectance, fast response, and wide-viewing characteristics, along with achromaticity.

Description and theory of spin coating technique has been elaborately outlined and a spin coating machine designed and fabricated using affordable components. The system was easily built with interdisciplinary knowledge of mechanics, fluid mechanics and electronics. This equipment employs majorly three basic components and two circuit units in its operation. These include a high speed dc motor, a proximity sensor mounted at a distance of about 15 mm from a reflective metal attached to the spindle of the motor to detect every passage of the reflective metal at its front and generate pulses. The pulses are transmitted to a micro-controller which process them into rotational speed (revolution per minute) and displays it on a lead crystal display (LCD) which is also a component of the micro-controller. The circuit units are a dc power supply unit and a PWM motor speed controlling unit. The various components and circuit units of this equipment are housed in a metal casing made of an 18 gauge black metal sheet designed with a total area of 1, $529.2cm^2$. To illustrate the use of the spin-coating system, ZnO sol-gel films were prepared and characterized using SEM, XRD, UV-vis, FT-IR and RBS and the result agrees well with that obtained from standard equipment and a speed of up to 9000 RPM has been achieved.
