When manufacturing large sized OLED devices, the evaporation source is the most important technology. The nozzle source maintains the uniformity of the large-size deposited organic thin film at the 2-3% level and its usage is only 0.8 gram/hour. The in-line manufacturing deposition system combining with an encapsulation system is proposed.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based electronic devices are widely used for various applications in large area electronics, biomedical wearable interfaces and implantable circuitry where flexibility and/or stretchability are required. A few fabrication methods of electronic devices directly on PDMS substrate have been reported. However, it is well known that micro-cracks appear in the metal layer and in the lithography pattern on a PDMS substrate. To solve the above problems, a few studies for fabrication of stiff platform on PDMS substrate have been reported. Thin-film islands of a stiff region are fabricated on an elastomeric substrate, and electronic devices are fabricated on these stiff islands. When the substrate is stretched, the deformation is mainly accommodated by the substrate, and the stiff islands and electronic devices experience relatively small strains. Here, we report a new method to achieve stiff islands structures on an elastomeric substrate at a various thickness, as the platform for stretchable electronic devices. The stiff islands were defined by conventional photolithography on a stress-free elastomeric substrate. This technique can provide a practical strategy for realizing large-area stretchable electronic circuits, for various applications such as stretchable display or wearable electronic systems.

As the demand of large and high-resolution display panels is increased, the black light units (BLU) of the display devices play an important roles. In this study we'll deal with various defects of BLUs. Patterns of defects can be classified by the scratches, the non-uniform misprinting for the diffused reflection, the surface stains, spots and etc. Due to these distorted patterns the high-resolution and high-precision could be impeded. We'll propose the visual inspection system to detect various defects by pattern-matching.

An improved dual-path energy recovery circuit (ERC) using a current source and a voltage source for plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. The proposed ERC uses the voltage source to charge a panel and the current source to discharge the panel. Thus, the proposed circuit can make the panel charge to $V_S$ and discharge to 0V, fully and it is possible to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of all switches in H-bridge inverter and zero current switching (ZCS) of all switches in the ERC. Moreover, it has less conduction and switching loss in ERC devices by the dual energy recovery paths for charging and discharging the panel. Furthermore, it has features of canceling the gas discharge current, high performance and the low cost ERC components. The operation principle and features of the proposed ERC are presented in detail and verified with 42-inch SD PDP.

The hybrid thin-film (HTF) passivation layer composed of the UV curable acrylate layer and MS-31 (MgO:SiO2=3:1wt%) layer was adopted in organic light emitting diode (OLED) to protect organic light emitting materials from penetrations of oxygen and water vapors. The moisture resistance of the deposited HTF layer was measured by the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR). The results showed that the HTF layer possessed a very low WVTR value of lower than $0.007g/m^2$ per day at $37.8^{\circ}C$ and 100% RH. Therefore, the HTF on the OLED was found to be very effective in protect what from the penetrations of oxygen and moisture.

Inexpensive large area arrays of thin film transistors (TFTs) on flexible substrates will enable many new display products that cannot be cost effectively manufactured by conventional means. This paper presents a new approach for low cost manufacturing of electronic devices using roll-to-roll (R2R) processes exclusively. It was developed in partnership by Hewlett Packard Laboratories and Iowa Thin Film Technologies (ITFT), a solar cell manufacturer. The approach combines ITFT's unique processes for vacuum deposition and etching of semiconductors, dielectrics and metals on continuous plastic webs with a method HP has invented for the patterning and aligning the multiple layers of a TFT with sub-micron accuracy and feature size.

Lithium-ion batteries are widely used, from lightweight to energy-intensive, from small devices to large ESSs. However, it is sensitive to the surrounding environment and there is a change in performance depending on the temperature change. In this study, the temperature dependence of the charge / discharge characteristics of the battery is shown through simulation and the distribution of the salt concentration in the electrolyte is observed when the sudden temperature change is applied.

Solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have the advantages of low cost, fast fabrication, and large-area devices. However, most studies on solution-processed OLEDs have mainly focused on solution-processable hole transporting materials or emissive materials. Here, we report fully solution-processed green OLEDs including hole/electron transport layers and emissive layers. The electrical and optical properties of OLEDs based on solution-processed TPBi (2,2',2"-(1,3,5-Benzinetriyl)-tris(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazole)) as the electron transport layer were investigated with respect to the spin speed and the number of layers. The performance of OLEDs with solution-processed TPBi exhibits a power efficiency of 9.4 lm/W. We believe that the solution-processed electron transport layers can contribute to the development of efficient fully solution-processed multilayered OLEDs.

Electric power in large devices is controlled by digital circuits, such as switching mode power supply. This kind of power circuits require accurate current sensor for power distribution. We studied characteristics of shunt resistor, which has many advantages for commercial application compared to Hall-effect current sensor. We applied ceramic package to the shunt resistor. Ceramic package has good thermal conductivity compared to plastic package, and this point is important for space requirement in Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Another advantage of the ceramic package is that surface mount technology (SMT) can be used for production. Our experimental results showed that the ceramic packaged resistor showed about 50% lower temperature than the plastic packaged one. Burning point and frequency characteristics are also discussed.

In recent years, attempts have been made to greatly improve the display quality of active-matrix liquid crystal display devices, and many techniques have been proposed to solve such problems as gate signal delay, feed-through voltage and image sticking. To improve these problems which are caused by the fried-through voltage, we have evaluated new driving methods to reduce the fled-through voltage. Two level gate-pulse was used for the gate driving of the cst-on-common structure pixels. And two-gate line driving methods with the optimized gate signals were applied for the cst-on-gate structure pixels. These gate driving methods were better feed-through characteristics than conventional simple gate pulse. The evaluation of the suggested driving methods were performed by using a TFT-LCD array simulator PDAST which can simulate the gate, data and pixel voltages of a certain pixel at any time and at any location on a TFT array. The effect of the new driving method was effectively analyzed.
