The prototype of color fitters for the liquid crystal displays (LCD) using cholesteric liquid crystal monomers was produced. Cholesteric liquid crystal is characterized by the unique optical features of selective reflection, which is due to the helical twisting structures of LCs comparable to the wavelength of the incident light under certain conditions of substrate treatment. In the results of the experiment, cholesteric films for red, green, and blue light reflections respectively were produced and the viewing angle dependence of these films were investigated. Reflective light of red and green films shifted to shorter wavelength regions as viewing angle becomes greater, but blue one shifted very little. Periodic micrometer-sized half-spherical photoresist formed by thermal reflow method after photo-lithography was patterned on glass substrates. The viewing angle dependence of reflective light colors of red, green, and blue films on the patterned substrates compared with those on no patterned substrates was investigated. We could confirm the dependences were much smaller on the patterned substrates by bare eyes and Lab-color coordination methods qualitatively.

In this paper, a new replication technique for a real 3D microstructure was introduced, in which a master Pattern WES made of photo-curable epoxy using a microstereolithography technology, and then it was transferred onto an epoxy-copper particle composite. A helical gear was selected as one of the real 3D microstructure for this study, and it was replicated from a pure epoxy to an epoxy composite. In addition, the transferability of the microreplication process was evaluated, and the properties of :he epoxy composite were compared to that of the pure epoxy, including hardness, wear-resistance and thermal conductivity.

We have grown well-aligned carbon nanotube arrays on the selective areas by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition at the substrate temperature of $580\;^{\circ}C$. The selective areas for CNTs growth can be defined by photo lithography technology. The CNTs are uniformly grown on the areas regardless of island diameters. Electron emission currents were measured in a vacuum with a diode structure at room temperature. Uniform electron emission currents were achieved with $40\;{\mu}m$ island spacing with $5{\mu}m$ island diameter.

A two-dimensional metal hole array (2DMHA) structure is fabricated by conventional photo-lithography and electron beam evaporation. The transmittance of the 2DMHA is measured at long wave infrared (LWIR) wavelengths (${\lambda}{\sim}10$ to $24{\mu}m$). The 2DMHA sample shows transmittance of 70 and 67% at $15.4{\mu}m$ due to plasmonic resonance with perforated silver and gold thin films, respectively, under surface normal illumination at LWIR wavelengths. The measured infrared spectrum is separated into two peaks when the size of the hole becomes larger than a half-pitch of the hole array. Six degenerated plasmon modes (1,0) at the metal/Si surface split to three modes at an incident beam angle of $45^{\circ}$ with respect to the surface normal direction, and wavelength shifts of the transmitted spectrum are observed in a red shift and blue shift at the same time.

The purpose of this study is to develop a non-invasive blood glucose measurement method by a portable near infrared (NIR) system which was newly integrated by our lab. The portable NIR system includes a tungsten halogen lamp, a specialized reflectance fiber optic probe and a photo diode array type InGaAs detector; which was developed by a microchip technology based on the lithography. Reflectance NIR spectra of different parts of human body (finger tip, earlobe, and inner lip) were recorded by using a fiber optic probe. The spectra were collected over the spectral range 1100 ∼ 1740 nm. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was applied for the calibration and validation for the determination of blood glucose. The calibration model from earlobe spectra presented better results, showing good correlation with a glucose oxidase method which is a mostly used standard method. This model predicted the glucose concentration for validation set with a SEP of 33 mg/dL. This study indicated the feasibility for non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose by a portable near infrared system.

This paper presents a study into pH Indicator-Embedded hydrogel micro-particles which are encoded various shapes according to the captured indicator. We incorporate various pH indicators into a photo-curable hydrogel, PEG-DA(Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate). Using the latest fluidic lithography techniques, we can easily fabricate variously patterned hydrogel particles based on in-situ photopolymerization of the PEG-DA in a micro-fluidic channel. The shape of the particle is related to the pH indicator inside the particle. We demonstrate that the micro pH sensors change their colors according to the pH levels. The micro pH sensors have various characteristics that are related to the curing time, particle size, etc. By changing these conditions, we can adjust the long term stability and reaction time of the hybrid micro pH sensors.

Electrowetting phenomenon is applied in the various field of technology. One of that is electrowetting display as a paper like electronic paper. Fast response and easy to express a color is goodness. In spite of that, the oil movement of the electrowetting display is irregular. So it doesn't look like uniform. Because of the above reason, electrowetting display using patterned electrode is made and the characteristic of oil movement is observed. Electrode and polymer wall is patterned by photo-lithography. We analyze the oil movement according to the variation of size and the position of etched electrode area.

We have investigated the effect of surface roughness of TCO substrate on the characteristics of OLED (organic light emitting diodes) devices. In order to control the surface roughness of AZO thin films, we have processed photo-lithography and reactive ion etching. The micro-size patterned mask was used, and the etching depth was controlled by changing etching time. The surface morphology of the AZO thin film was observed by FESEM and atomic force microscopy (AFM). And then, organic materials and cathode electrode were sequentially deposited on the AZO thin films. Device structure was AZO/${\alpha}$-NPD/DPVB/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al. The DPVB was used as a blue emitting material. The electrical characteristics such as current density vs. voltage and luminescence vs. voltage of OLED devices were measured by using spectrometer. The current vs. voltage and luminance vs. voltage characteristics were systematically degraded with increasing surface roughness. Furthermore, the retention test clearly presented that the reliability of OLED devices was directly influenced with the surface roughness, which could be interpreted in terms of the concentration of the electric field on the weak and thin organic layers caused by the poor step coverage.
