  • A conductive PANI solution was successfully fabricated by doping with camphorsulfonic acid and the polymerization of aniline and the confirmation of doping were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. In organic thin film transistors, PANI gate electrodes were spin-coated on a PES substrate and their conductivity variations were monitored by a 4-probe method with different annealing temperatures. The surface properties of PANI thin films were investigated by an AFM and an optical microscope, OTFTs with PANI gate electrode had characteristics of carrier mobility as large as 0.15 $cm^2$/Vs and on/off ratio of $2.4{\times}10^6$, Au gate OTFTs with the same configuration were fabricated to investigate the effect of polymer gate electrode for the comparison of device performances. We could obtain the comparable performances of PANI devices to those of Au gate devices, resulting in an excellent alternative as an electrode in flexible OTFTs instead of an expensive Au electrode.

  • In this study, high performance electrode catalyst was developed in fabrication of membrane electrode assembly for PEMFCs(Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells). The I-V characteristics were measured to evaluate the influence of Nafion solution and Pt loading amount in the catalyst composition. The electrode characteristics were also investigated with respect to temperature change. The electrode performance was optimized at Nafion 5 wt% and 0.5 mg Pt/$\textrm{cm}^2$ content. The increase in the concentration of Nafion solution resulted in the decrease in electrode performance. At $80^{\circ}C$ of unit cell, I-V characteristics excelled those obtained at lower temperature. There was no difference in performance at low current density, but the improvement of voltage value in higher temperature could be found at high current density.

  • Although a polypyrrole shows better electrical conductivity, 100∼400 ${\Omega}^{-1}cm^{-1}$, than other organic conducting polymers, its electrical conductivity will be worsen in the presence of the oxygen due to its easy oxidation. On the other hand, polythiophene shows better stability in the air while its electrcal conductivity is poor compared to the polypyrrole. We succeed to develope the mixed polymer electrode that is stable in the air and shows a good redox characteristics. The mixed polymer electrode has been prepared by the electrical polymerization of polypyrrole on the Pt electrode as 1.70 C$cm^{-2}$ and then coating with polythiophene as 0.34 C$cm^{-2}$. The polymerization rate of polythiophene was $3.89{\times}10^{-8}$ at the bare Pt electrode and $6.07{\times}10^{-8}cms^{-1}$ at the mixed polymer electrode. And the standard rate constants of each electrode were $5.16{\times}10^{-6}\;and\;3.94{\times}10^{-4} cms^{-1}$ respectively. Also, the electrocatalytic rate of the polypyrrole polymer electrode was $3.45{\times}10^{-3}cm^3mol^{-1}s^{-1}.$ We found the immobilized layer at the modified electrode acted as an electrocatalyst. Finally, this polymerization process at the Pt electrode was the electron transfer controlled, but that the mixed polymer electrode was the diffusion and charge transfer controlled.

  • A polymer-stabilized vertical alignment (PS-VA) mode with fishbone-shaped pixel electrode structure is mainly used in large-sized liquid crystal displays (LCDs) owing to its advantages such as wide viewing angle, good transmittance and fast response time. One drawback of this mode is a main bone electrode, which crosses in the center of a pixel. It causes the transmittance to decrease badly because LCs cannot be reoriented in this region, and thus, it is particularly unfavorable in an ultra-high-definition LCD. Here, we propose an innovative structure with the main bone electrode relocated to the edge area in a pixel, and investigate how this reverse directed fishbone-shaped pixel electrode structure affects electro-optic characteristics. The proposed structure shows enhanced electro-optic performance, such as the higher transmittance and the faster response time than the conventional VA mode with fishbone-shaped pixel electrode structure.

  • The purpose of this study is to research and develop conducting polymer(CP) composite electrode for supercapacitor. Supercapactior cell of CP composite electrode with 1M LiClO$_4$/PC brings out good capacitor performance below 4V. The radius of semicircle of CP composite cell with PAn composite electrode adding 15Wt% SP270(PAnS15) and PT composite electrode adding 50%wt% SP270(PTS50) was absolutely small. The total resistance of supercapacitor cell mainly depended on internal resistance of the electrode. The discharge capacitance of supercapacitor cell with PTS50(+)/PAnS15(-) in 1st and 20th cycles was 38F/g and 28F/g at current density of 1mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.
