There appears lateral capillary force in a hydrophilic flat needle employed for the fabrication of fine organic thin-film stripes, bringing in an increase of the stripe width. It also causes the stripe thickness to increase with increasing coating speed, which is hardly observed in a normal coating process. Through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, we demonstrate that the lateral capillary flow can be substantially suppressed by increasing the contact angle of the needle end. Based on the simulation results, we have coated the outer surface of the flat needle with a hydrophobic material (polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) with the water contact angle of 104°). Using such a hydrophobic needle, we can suppress the lateral capillary flow of an aqueous poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) to a great extent, rendering the stripe narrow (63 ㎛ at 30 mm/s). Consequently, the stripe thickness is decreased as the coating speed increases. To demonstrate its applicability to solution-processable organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), we have also fabricated OLED with the fine PEDOT: PSS stripe and observed the strong light-emitting stripe with the width of about 68 ㎛.

Organic light emitting layer in OLED device was formed by gravure printing process in this work. Organic surface coated by gravure printing typically showed relatively bad uniformity. Thickness and roughness control was characterized by applying various mixed solvents in this work. Poly (N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) and fact-tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium($Ir(ppy)_3$) are host dopant system materials. PVK was used as a host and Ir(ppy)3 as green-emitting dopant. To luminance efficiency of the plasma treatment on etched ITO glass and then PEDOT:PSS spin coated. The device layer structure of OLED devices is as follow Glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PVK+Ir(ppy)3-Active layer /LiF/Al. It was printed by gravure printing technology for polymer light emitting diode (PLED). To control the thickness multi-printing technique was applied. As the number of the printing was increased the thickness enhancement was increased. To control the roughness of organic layer film, thermal annealing process was applied. The annealing temperature was varied from room temperature, $40^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$, to $120^{\circ}C$.

This study has successfully demonstrated the direct fabrication of polymer resistors using ink-jet printing technology as an alternative patterning to traditional photolithography. The polymer resistors were fabricated just by two layer processes using a ink-jet printer (DMP-2800, Fujifilm Dimatix). First, resistive materials was patterned by a ink-jet printing with the desired width and length. Next, resistor fabrication was completed by printing metal contact pads on the both sides of the polymer resistor. We used poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) for the resistor material and a nano-sized silver colloid for the metal contact pads. We characterized the electrical properties of PEDOT:PSS by measuring sheet resistance and specific resistance on a glass substrate. From analysis of the measured resistances, the electrical resistances of the polymer resistors linearly increased as a function of printed width and length of resistors. The accuracy of the fabricated polymer resistor showed about $0.6{\sim}2.5%$ error for the same dimensions.

패턴화된 ITO (indium tin oxide)/Glass 기판 위에 정공수송층인 PEDOT:PSS [poly(3,4-othylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfolnate)]와 발광층인 MEH-PPV [poly(2-methoxy-5-(2-ethyhexoxy)-1,4phenylenvinylene)]를 사용하여 ITO/PEDOT:PSS/MEH-PPV/AI 구조를 갖는 고분자 유기 발광다이오드 (polymer light emitting diode: PLED)를 제작하였다. PLED 제작시 MEH-PPV 의 농도를 ($0.1\;wt\%\;{\~}\;0.9\;wt\%$) 변수로 하여 박막의 표면 거칠기와 박막 층의 마찰재수(friction coefficient) 측정을 통하여 농도에 따른 특성 변화를 조사하였다. MEH-PP 의 농도를 $0.1\;wt\%$ 에서 $0.9\;wt\%$ 로 증가함에 따라 발광 층의 RMS (root mean square)같은 1.72 nm 에서 1.00 nm 로 감소하여 거칠기가 개선되는 경향을 보여 주었다. 그러나 박막간의 마찰계수는 0.048 에서 0.035 로 감소하여 박막간의 접합상태가 나빠지는 현상을 나타내었다. 소자의 전기, 광학적 특성의 경우 MEH-PPV 농도가 $0.5\;{\~}\;0.9\;wt\%$ 범위에서 약 0.35 mA (at 9V)의 전류밀도를 나타내었으며, 최대 휘도는 $0.5\;wt\%$ 농도에서 $409\;cd/m^2$의 값을 나타내었다.

Using an inkjet printing process, we have investigated a droplet formation of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) near the orifice of a piezoelectric inkjet head. With an attempt to form the smallest droplet without any satellites, we have applied various waveforms such as the unipolar, bipolar, and M-shaped waveforms. It is found that the droplet velocity and volume vary depending sensitively on the waveform width and voltage. Of those, the M-shaped waveform is shown to provide the smallest droplet volume, followed by the bipolar and then unipolar waveforms. The droplet printed on a PET film roll by the M-shaped waveform has the diameter as small as 46.1 ㎛. It is likely that the second short unipolar in the M-shape waveform increases the droplet velocity gradient, rendering the droplet smaller.

ITO(indium tin oxide) 투명전극을 양극으로 사용하고 정공수송층으로 PEDOT:PSS[poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfolnate)]를 사용하였으며, 발광물질로는 PFO[poly(9,9-dioctyl-fluorene)]와 MEH-PPV [poly(2-methoxy-5(2-ethylhexoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinyle)]를 각각 호스트와 도펀트로 사용하였다. PFO:MEH-PPV 발광층의 두께를 약 $400{\AA}$으로 형성하였고, MEH-PPV의 농도는 9wt%로 고정하여 도핑하였다. PFO 발광층의 두께를 $200{\sim}300{\AA}$의 범위로 변화시켜 전계발광 특성을 비교 해 본 결과, 두께가 약 $250{\AA}$ 부근에서 가장 우수한 광학적 특성이 관찰되었으며, 13V의 인가전압에서 각각 약 $400mA/cm^2$의 전류밀도와 $1500cd/m^2$의 휘도가 관찰되었다 또한 PFO 발광층을 2중으로 구성한 소자(PFO/PFO:MEH-PPV)가 단일 발광층을 갖는 소자 (PFO:MEH-PPV)에 비해 발광휘도 및 전류 효율에서 약 3배의 향상된 특성을 보여주었다.

PFO-poss 농도증가(0.5 wt%에서 1.0 wt%)와 함께 PLED 소자의 열처리 온도를 $100^{\circ}C$에서 $200^{\circ}C$로 증가할 경우 CIE 색좌표는 청색 (x, y : 0.17, 0.14)에서 청백색 (x, y = 0.29, 0.41)발광으로 천이하는 경향을 나타내었다.
