Screen printing is a printing method that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil by transferring ink or other printable materials in order to form an image onto a substrate. Recently, the screen printing method has applied to micro-electronic packaging by using solder paste as a printable material. For the screen printing of solder paste, metal masks containing a number of micro-holes are used as a stencil material. The metal mask undergoes deformation when it is installed in the screen printing machine, which results in the deformation of micro-holes. In the present study, finite element (FE) analysis was performed to predict the amount of deformation of a metal mask. For an efficient calculation of the micro-holes of the metal mask, the sub-domain analysis method was applied to perform FE analyses connecting the global domain (the metal mask) and the local domain (micro-holes). The FE analyses were then performed to evaluate the effects of slot designs on the deformation characteristics, from which more uniform and adjustable deformation of the metal mask can be obtained.

To reduce the doming of the shadow mask due to thermal expansion and to prevent the color discrepancy, the electron reflecting layer with lead tungsten oxides on the electron gun side of shadow mask was formed by screen printing method and doming property was evaluated in CRT. First, the lead tungsten oxides were prepared by calcining the mixture of lead oxide and tungsten oxide above 600$^{\circ}C$. Second, the paste which has the anti-doming composition including the lead tungsten oxides was coated by screen-printing method. As a result, the doming of the shadow mask was reduced about from 30 to 45%.

The mesh mask screen, which is generally used for screen printing metallization of silicon solar cell, requires high squeegee pressure and low printing speed. These requirements are acting as a limiting factor in production yield in photovoltaic industries. In order to improve the productivity, a metal mask, which has high durability and high printing speed, has been researched. In this paper, the characteristics of each solar cell, in which electrodes were formed by using a metal mask and a mesh mask, were analyzed through recombination current density. In particular, the metal-induced recombination current density (Jom) representing the recombination of the emitter-metal interface was calculated using the shading method, and the resulting efficiency and open-circuit voltage were analyzed through the diode equation. As a result of analyzing the proportion of the metal-induced recombination current density to the total emitter recombination current density, it was analyzed that the reduction of the metal-induced recombination current density through the metal mask is an important factor in reducing the total recombination current density of the solar cell.

Two-dimensional and three-dimensional finite element methods have been used to analyze the deformation behavior of a shadow mask due to thermal and tension load. The shadow mask inside the Braun tube of a TV set has numerous slits through which the electron beams are guided to land on the designed phosphor of red, green or blue. Its thermal deformation therefore causes landing shift of the electron beam and results in decolorization of a screen. For the realistic finite element analysis, the effective thermal conductivity and the effective elastic modulus arc calculated, and then the shadow mask is modeled as shell without slits. Next a transient thermal analysis of the shadow mask is performed, wherein thermal radiation is a major heat transfer mechanism. Analysis of the resulting thermal deformation is followed, from which the landing shift of the electron beam is obtained. The present finite element scheme may be efficiently used to reduce thermal deformation of a shadow mask and in developing prototypes of a large screen flat TV.

In this paper, we studied the effects of the electron reflection on shadow mask on which the electron reflecting materials with $WO_3-ZnS:Cu.Al-PbO-SiO_2$ system were screen-printed and we evaluated the variation of the electron beam mislanding in CRT. As a result, the green emitted spectra on the electron reflecting layer are observed due to the transformation of the electron energy, when the electron impacted on shadow mask. The beam mislanding is reduced about 40% in comperision with that of CRT made by the conventional method.

This paper presents a useful method of registration in manufacturing of shadow color mask for cathode ray tubes of the FTM (Flat Tension Mask) type, wherein the shadow mask and front panel are interchangeable when mask-panels are assembled, which is called ICM system. Theoretical analysis and alignment process are presented. The pattern of mask aperture is registered with a screen pattern of corresponding geometry of the panel in flat tension mask tube. Registration accuracy of panel and mask affects the purity of color cathode ray tube concerned with mislanding. It tries to minimize the misregistration caused by variances, which are mechanical error, mask stretching position error, restrictive number of fiducial point, etc.

Tension variations with heat treatment in shadow mask for flat braun tubes are investigated in this study. In CRT, landing shift of the electron beam due to thermal deformation of the tension mask made the color purity of screen worse. In order to get the final results of thermal deformation, the tensile force within the mask and the welding processes between the rail and the extended mask have to be analysed sequentially. In this study, the effect of heat treatment is studied in terms of tension variations of shadow mask during its manufacturing process.

Thermal deformations of tension mask under localized heating are analyzed using finite element method and electron beam landing shifts are predicted by the analysis results. In CRT, electron beam landing shifts due to thermal deformations of the tension mask make the color purity of screen worse. In order to get the final results of thermal deformations, firstly the tension processes of the mask and following welding processes between the tensional mask and rail must be analyzed sequentially. And then, nonlinear transient thermo-elastic finite element analysis is performed on every part inside CRT including tension mask, wherein thermal radiation is a main heat transfer mechanism. Because the tension mask has numerous slits, the effective thermal conductivity and effective and effective elastic modulus is calculated, and the tension mask is modeled as a shell without slits. From the displacement results of tension mask, electron beam landing shifts is calculated directly. Experiments are performed to confirm our analysis results. Temperature distributions and beam landing shifts of tension mask are measured and the results are in good agreement with those of analyses.

Finite element analysis is performed for transient thermal deformation of a shadow mask inside the Braun tube and the landing shift or mislanding of the electronic beam is calclated. The shadow mask has numerous slits through which the electronic beams are guided to land on the designed phosphor. Its thermal deformations therefore cause the mislanding of the electronic beam and result in decolorization of a screen. For realistic finite element analysis, firstly the effective thermal conductivity and the effective elastric modulus are calculated, and the shadow mask is modeled as shell without slits. Next the nonlinear finite element formulation is developed for transient heat transfer on the shadow mask, wherein thermal radiation is a major heat transfer mechanism. Analysis of the resulting thermoelastic deformations is followed, from which the mislanding of the electronic beam is obtained. The present finite element scheme may be efficiently used for thermal deformation design of a shadow mask.
