For the fast dry of the aqueous tape, the process which water was replaced by organic solvent was proposed. Socalled, it was the solvent washing dry. Three organic solvents (methanol, ethanol and acetone) were selected for the washing solvent. The weight loss of the washed tapes was measured to evaluate the dry rate of the tapes and dried tapes were examined the generation of the cracks with the variations of the organic solvent and the washing time. Methanol, ethanol and acetone were available organic solvents for this method. The tapes washed in methanol, ethanol and acetone were dried rapidly for twenty minutes. After thirty minutes, the weight losses were not found any more. The solvent of the lower surface tension can decreases the crack of dried tape. If solvent substitutes water completely, though it was fast dried, crack can be eliminated.

We report thin-film organic moisture barriers based on polystyrene(PS) laminates deposition by PECVD for an encapsulation of OLEDs. The organic polystyrene thin-film has the benzene ring structure and high hydrophobic characteristics and it was polymerized by PECVD in dry process. Life time properties of Ca test were obtained 32 minutes at the RF 100W process conditions. From the AFM test, the roughness of multi-layer thin-film was more excellent rather than that of a single-layer thin-film. In addition, 5 layers of the multi-layer film properties were obtained 45 minutes. So that the optical and electrical properties were not affected with these plasma polymerized organic thin-film encapsulation. For life time improvement, the inorganic $Al_2O_3$ thin-film were deposited 5nm using ALD atomic layer deposition. The WVTR(Water Vaper Transmission Rate) value of hybrid thin-film encapsulation in the optimum process conditions was resulted by less than $10-3g/m^2/day$. From the results of experiment, plasma polymerized hybrid encapsulation was suggested as the flexible display applications.

Plasma polymerized methyl methacrylate (ppMMA) thin films were deposited by plasma polymerization technique with different plasma powers and subsequently thermally treated at temperatures of 60 to $150^{\circ}C$. To find a better ppMMA preparation technique for application to organic thin film transistor (OTFT) as dielectric layer, the chemical composition, surface morphology, and electrical properties of ppMMA were investigated. The effect of ppMMA thin-film preparation conditions on the resulting thin film properties were discussed, specifically O-H site content in the pMMA, dielectric constant, leakage current density, and hysteresis.

We have developed a novel thin film encapsulation method for thin-cathode OLED by introducing organic (not polymer)/inorganic multiple thin films to protect device, which is shown to slow down the permeation rate of moisture and oxygen. From the stability test of devices, the projected lifetime of thin-cathode OLED device with thin film encapsulation was similarly to that with glass lid encapsulation.

We fabricated the thin-film transistors using organic semiconductor, pentacene, on $SiN_x$, gate insulator. X-ray diffraction experiments were performed for the sample after heat-treatments at higher temperatures. We confirmed that we obtained "thin-film phase" from the condition used here. From the electrical measurements, we also confirmed that no charges are accumulated at the interface between organic and insulating layer, and FET characteristics of the organic FET using pentacene was discussed.

Recently, organic thin films are widely used to the application of organic optoelectronic devices such as OLED, OTFT, organic solar cell, and organic laser, etc. The electrical transport of organic thin film is very important to determine the performance and thus should be analyzed for analysis of operation and design of devices. However, there have been rarely known about the electrical transport of organic thin films. As an example pentacene is known to be a good organic semiconductor to produce the best performance in OTFT at the present. But the performance is varied depending on the position of source/drain contacts and gate surface states and the thickness of thin film. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effects of the above-mentioned factors on the electrical properties of pentacene thin film.

Polyimide thin film was prepared by annealing the polyamic acid that was synthesized through co-deposition of diamine and dianhydride. The polyamic acid and polyimide thin film were characterized with FT-IR and HR FE-SEM. The average roughness of the film surface, evaluated with AFM, were 0.385 nm and 0.299 nm after co-deposition, and annealing at 120 ℃ respectively. OLED was passivated with the polyimide layer of 200 nm thickness. While the inorganic passivation layer enhances the WVTR of OLED, the organic passivation layer gives flexibility to the OLED. The in-situ passivation of OLED with organic thin film layer provides the leading technique to develop flexible OLED Display.

We fabricated the Polyamide 4,6 (PA46) thin film using Adipoyl chloride and 1,4-butadiamine. PA46 film was grown at $70^{\circ}C$ by Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD) method. MLD is sequential and self-terminating fabrication method for organic thin film. The growth rate of PA46 is $3.5{\acute{\AA}}$ cycle. The thickness of PA46 film was measured by Ellipsometer. Surface morphology of this film was investigated by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and roughness is directly proportional to number of growing cycles.

Since organic thin film transistor (OTFT) provides simple and low cost processes, its application to the OTFT display has been studied. We developed an RC oscillator using organic thin film transistor and inverters with bootstrapping transistors. Device parameters were optimized by the simulation and OTFT RC oscillators were fabricated. The oscillator frequency and its dependence on resistance and bias voltage were studied. The organic TFT is adequate for low cost and simple process integrated circuits. The frequency of oscillation was simulated and measured. It is acceptable for low-cost microelectronic device and flat panel displays.

In this paper, we investigated the deposition of pentacene thin film on a large area substrate by Organic Vapor Phase Deposition(OVPD) and applied it to fabrication of Organic Thin Film Transistor(OTFT). We extracted the optimum deposition conditions such as evaporation temperature of $260^{\circ}C$, carrier gas flow rate of 10 sccm and chamber vacuum pressure of 0.1 torr. We fabricated 72 OTFTs on the 4 inch size Si Wafer, Which produced the average mobility of $0.1{\pm}0.021cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, average subthreshold slope of 1.04 dec/V, average threshold voltage of -6.55 V, and off-state current is $0.973pA/{\mu}m$. The overall performance of pentacene TFTs over 4 ' wafer exhibited the uniformity with the variation less than 20 %. This proves that OVPD is a suitable methode for the deposition of organic thin film over a large area substrate.
