A light guiding plate (LGP) with nanometer-sized patterns was fabricated by injection molding method which employed electrically healed mold and the transcription of injection-molded parts was investigated. A Ni stamper was fabricated using MEMS technology. The Ni stamper was then installed in a movable heated core which is a key part of the mold. Using this mold, injection-molded plastic LGP parts were manufactured at different mold temperatures and the effect of the temperature on the transcription of the parts was investigated.

A Single-crystalline Mn-Zn Ferrite (110 orientation) was masklessly etched by focused Ar laser irradiation in an H$_3$PO$_4$ solution. The depth of the etched grooves increases with increasing a laser power, decreasing a scan speed, and increasing the H$_3$PO$_4$concentration. The width of the etched grooves increases with a increasing laser power, but was relatively insensitive to the scan speed and H$_3$PO$_4$concentration. High etching rate of up to 714 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/s and an aspect ratio of 6 for vertical slab structure have been obtained by the light-guiding effect of the laser bean in the H$_3$PO$_4$ solution.

Micro-lens patterned micro-mold fabrication method for Light Guiding Plate(LGP), kernel part of LCD-BLU(Back Light Unit), was presented. Instead of erosion dot pattern for LGP optical design, micro-lens pattern, fabricated by LIGA-reflow process, was applied. Optical pattern design method was also developed not only for negative pattern LGP, but also positive pattern LGP. During injection molding process, experimental study was conducted to improve replication quality and brightness of ${\sim}50um$ micro-lens pattern mold. The effect of mold temperature for the replication quality of micro-lens array was studied.

Recently, many researches have been done to improve optical performance of LCD-BLU(Back Light Unit). One of the most important parts in LCD-BLU is LGP(Light Guiding Plate). Micro-patterned LGP is known to have different optical characteristics depending on their shape, pattern density and size, etc. In the present study, a micro-optical patterned LGP mold was fabricated using LiGA process. The difference in the optical characteristics between positive and negative patterned LGP's was investigated by fixing the density, location and size of each pattern. It was found that the negative patterned LGP showed better optical characteristics than positive one.

LCD-BLU (Liquid Crystal Display - Back Light Unit) is one of kernel parts of LCD unit and it consists of several optical sheets(such as prism, diffuser and protector sheets), LGP (Light Guiding Plate), light source (CCFL or LED) and mold frame. The LGP of LCD-BLU is usually manufactured by forming numerous dots with $50{\sim}200$ um in diameter on it by etching process. But the surface of the etched dots of LGP is very rough due to the characteristics of the etching process during the mold fabrication, so that its light loss is high along with the dispersion of light into the surface. Accordingly, there is a limit in raising the luminance of LCD-BLU. In order to overcome the limit of current etched dot patterned LGP, optical pattern design with 50um micro-lens was applied in the present study. The micro-lens pattern fabricated by modified LiGA with thermal reflow process was applied to the optical design of LGP. The attention was paid to the effects of different aspect ratio (i.e. $0.2{\sim}0.5$) of optical pattern conditions to the brightness distribution of BLU with micro-lens patterned LGP. Finally, high aspect ratio micro-lens patterned LGP showed superior results to the one made by low aspect ratio in average luminance.

본 논문은 LED와 아크릴을 이용한 새로운 BLU을 제안하고 그 가능성을 실험적으로 검증했으며, 특히 LED에 의한 아크릴의 빛 산란 및 가이딩에 관한 연구에 초점을 맞췄다. 기존 형광 램프를 이용한 BLU는 현재 많이 개발되어 있는 상황이나, 이러한 BLU 제품은 구입 가격이 높고 수명이 짧으며, 벽에 부착할 경우 두꺼워 부착하기가 쉽지 않다. 또한, 실외에서 사용하기 위해서는 외부의 환경으로부터 보호될 수 있는 별도의 패키징이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 저렴한 비용으로 옥외 간판의 BLU로 활용될 수 있는 새로운 BLU 시스템을 제안하고 검증한다. 장치의 구성은 매우 저렴하게 구입할 수 있는 아크릴과 LED로 이루어지며, 빛의 산란 효과를 이용하기 위하여 아크릴 표면에 다양한 스크래치를 시도하였다. 또한, 인터넷을 통하여 BLU의 색상, 조도를 다이나믹하게 원격 조정할 수 있도록 임베디드 시스템을 구현 하였다. 모의실험의 결과를 바탕으로 간판용 BLU를 실제 구현하였고, 모의실험의 경우 2,673Lux, 실제 제작한 광고용 BLU는 2,554Lux의 평균 밝기가 측정되었다. 모의실험 결과와 실제 제작된 BLU의 실험 결과가 유사하게 나타남을 확인 할 수 있었다.

LCD-BLU(Liquid Crystal Display - Back Light Unit) consists of several optical sheets: LGP(Light Guiding Plate), light source and mold frame. The LGP of LCD-BLU is usually manufactured by etching process and forming numerous dots with $50{\mu}m$ in diameter on the surface. But the surface roughness of LGP with etched dots is very high, so there is much loss of light. In order to overcome the limit of current etched dot patterned LGP, optical pattern design with microlens of $50{\mu}m$ diameter was applied in the present study. The microlens pattern fabricated by modified LiGA with thermal reflow process was applied to the optical design of LGP and optical simulation was carried out to know tendency of microlens patterned LGP simultaneously. The attention was paid to the effects of different aspect ratio(i.e. $0.2\sim0.5$) of optical pattern conditions to the brightness distribution of BLU with microlens patterned LGP. Finally, high aspect ratio microlens patterned LGP showed superior results to the one made by low aspect ratio in average luminance.

세 채널로 구성된 나노 크기의 플라즈마 방향성 결합기가 모드 결합효과와 립형 전송구조를 사용하여 설계되었다. 종방향 모드 전송선로 해석법을 이용하여 방향성 결합기에서 전파하는 빛의 전파특성과 설계특성들을 분석하였다. 전력분배기로 동작하는 플라즈마 방향성 결합기는 약 200~250 nm의 전송 폭을 갖는 나노 크기로 설계하였다. 최적의 전력분배율을 얻기 위하여 중심 채널의 폭 변화에 따른 전송 모드들의 굴절률을 분석하였다. 결국, 하향 채널에서 입사된 광 신호를 각 채널을 통하여 출력하는 나노 크기의 플라즈마 방향성 결합기가 설계되었다.

LCD-BLU (Back Light Unit) is one of kernel parts of LCD unit. The fabrication method of a 3-D micro mold patterned with micro-lenses for the LGP (Light Guiding Plate), one of the most important parts of LCD-BLU, was presented. Instead of dot pattern made by etching, 3-D optical pattern design with $50{\mu}m$ micro-lens was applied in the present study. The micro-lens pattern fabricated by modified LiGA with thermal reflow process was applied to the optical design of LGP. The positive micro-lens patterned injection mold with different aspect ratios (i.e. 0.3 and 0.4) was fabricated with modified LiGA with thermal reflow process. The brightness of LCD-BLU increased as aspect ratio of micro-lens increased.

광물질로 인광물질을 사용한 유기발광다이오드(Organic Light Emitting Diode, OLED)는 재결합에 의해 형성된 여기자를 발광에 모두 이용할 수 있기 때문에 내부 양자효율이 100%로 알려져 있다. 하지만 유기층에서 발생된 빛이 소비자에게 전달되기까지의 경로에서 발생되는 wave guiding effect로 인해, 발생된 빛의 20%만이 전달된다. 특히 bottom emission type의 OLED에서 glass와 air사이의 굴절률이 달라 발생되는 전반사에 의해 손실되는 빛의 양은 35%에 달한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 glass와 air사이의 전반사를 줄이고 광추출을 위해 습식 방법으로 hemisphere type의 ZnS를 제작하였다. 제작된 ZnS는 직경 200nm까지 성장하였으며, 이렇게 제작된 ZnS nano lens가 적용된 OLED device에서 휘도가 20% 이상 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.
