  • The characteristics of hybrid conductive films based on multilayer graphene and silver grid have been investigated for the high-performance and flexible organic solar cells. The hybrid conductive films have been prepared on glass and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates using conventional photolithography process and transfer process of graphene. The optical and electrical properties of prepared conductive films show transmittance of 87% at 550nm and sheet resistance of $28{\Omega}/square$. The electromechanical properties were also investigated in detail to confirm the flexibility of the hybrid films. OSCs have been fabricated on the hybrid conductive films based on graphene and silver grid on glass substrate. The power conversion efficiency of 2.38%, a fill factor of 51%, an open circuit voltage of 0.58V and a short circuit current of $8.05mA/cm^2$ were obtained from the device on glass substrate. The PCE was enhanced 11% compared with OSCs on the MLG films without silver grid.

  • Flexible device 및 OLED 디스플레이 제조를 위한 산화물 반도체 보호막 증착 및 encapsulation 공정을 위해 균일한 대면적 플라즈마를 만들기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 초고주파 플라즈마는 고밀도, 고효율의 플라즈마를 저진공에서 쉽게 생성시킬 수 있고 다양한 전력결합방법을 통해 대면적 확장성이 우수한 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 TEM 웨이브가이드로 파워가 전달되는 선형 초고주파 플라즈마 소스에 대한 2차원축대칭 유체 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. Ar 가스 압력과 초고주파 입력전력이 증가함에 따라 전자밀도가 증가하였고 도파관 방향으로 플라즈마의 길이가 증가함이 관측되었다. Quartz Tube 표면 가까이에서 전자밀도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 전자의 에너지 손실 채널중 가장 많은 부분을 차지하는 것은 여기종 생성에 따른 에너지 손실이었으며 탄성 충돌에 의한 에너지 손실이 두 번째로 큰 부분을 차지하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 절연막에 삽입시킨 실리콘 나노와이어 유연소자를 제작하고 그 소자의 전기적 특성을 분석하여 유연소자로서의 적합성을 평가하였다. 최근 반도체 및 디스플레이 등이 다양한 현장에 응용되면서 유연성을 이용한 소자의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이러한 요구를 바탕으로 나노와이어를 유연소자에 적용시키기 위하여 삽입방법을 이용하여 field-effect transistor(FET) 소자를 제작하였다. 유연소자의 기판으로는 polyimide(PI) 및 poly(ethylene 2,6 naphtahalate)(PEN)을 사용하였고, 절연막은 poly-4-vinylphenol(PVP)을 이용하였으며 이때, 나노와이어는 무전해 식각법으로 합성한 실리콘 나노와이어를 사용하였다. 이렇게 제작된 유연소자를 휨 상태 및 삽입된 정도에 따른 전기적 특성을 비교하였고 휨 테스트를 통하여 소자의 안정성을 분석하였다. 전기적 특성은 I-V 측정을 통하여 Ion/Ioff ratio, 이동도, subthreshold swing, threshold voltage값 등을 평가하였다.

  • In combining dispersed optimization models, either primal or dual(or both) decomposition method widely used as an organizing device. Interpreting the methods economically, the concepts of price and resource-directive coordination are generally well accepted. Most of deomposition/ integration methods utilize either primal information of dual information, not both, from subsystems, while some authors have developed mixed decomposition approaches employing two master problems dealing primal and dual proposals separately. In this paper a hybrid decomposition method is introduced, where one hybrid master problem utilizes the underlying relationships between primal and dual information from each subsystem. The suggested method is well justified with respect to the flexibility in information flow pattern choice (some prices and other quantities) and to the compatibility of subdivision's optimum to the systemwide optimum, that is often lacking in conventional decomposition methods such as Dantzig-Wolfe's. A numerical example is also presented to illustrate the suggested approach.

  • Since FMS(Flexible Manufacturing System) such as semiconductor production systems have the characteristic that each device has to be commonly used in several stages, it is difficult to find an optimal solution. In this paper, we proposed the new algorithm which can get the optimal ratio of sharing resources. We will implement the proposed algorithm to semiconductor production systems. We introduce the optimal algorithm, which is modeled and analyzed by ExSpect, a petri net based simulation tool. When there exist conflicts of sharing resources, the scheduling method is adopted, which gives a priority to the most preceded process. The suggested algorithm can be used not only in semiconductor production systems but also in various FMS.

  • We demonstrated stability-enhanced liquid crystal (LC) displays using pixel-iosolated LC mode in which LC molecules are isolated in pixel by horizontal polymer layer and vertical polymer wall. The device shows good electro-optic properties with external pressure and bending due to the polymer structures. The polymer wall acts as supporting structure from mechanical pressure and maintains the cell gap from bending. Moreover, the polymer layer acts as adhesive for tight attachment of two substrates. We presented various methods to produce the polymer structures by using anisotropic phase separation from LC and polymer composites or patterned micro-structures.

  • In an attempt to fabricate all inclusive display systems we are presenting a study on several elements that would be used as building blocks for all-on-board integrated applications on stainless steel foils. These systems would include in the same substrate all or many of the components needed to drive a flat panel OLED display. We are reporting results on both digital and analog circuits on stainless steel foils. Shift registers running at speeds greater than 1.0MHz are shown as well as oscillators operating at over 40MHz. Pixel circuits for driving organic light emitting diodes are presented. The device technology of choice is that based on poly-silicon TFT technology as it has the potential of producing circuits with good performance and considerable cost savings over the established processes on quartz or glass substrates (amorphous Silicon a-Si:H or silicon on Insulator SOI).

  • In-situ photopolymerization of alkyl acrylate monomers in the presence of a nematic fluid provides a cellular matrix of liquid crystalline droplets in which the chemical structure of the encapsulating polymer exerts control over the alignment (anchoring) of the liquid crystalline molecules. Control is obtained by variation of the alkyl side chains and through copolymerization of two dissimilar monofunctional acrylates. Two monofunctional acrylates with opposing tendencies on copolymerization provide control over the tunability of anchoring over a wide temperature range. Using various acrylates we show that a uniform vertical alignment can be achieved over a large area. Utilizing this technique and a nematic with negative dielectric anisotropy, we have fabricated highly flexible liquid crytal based devices, with high contrast and fast response time, without using any alignment layer.

  • We developed a method for adhesion of two substrates with stable liquid crystal (LC) structures using patterned microstructure and LC/polymer composite materials. In the device, the LC molecules are isolated in pixels where LCs are surrounded by patterned microstructures, and two substrates are tightly attached each other by the solidified polymer produced by anisotropic phase separation by UV exposure. These devices show very good mechanical stability against external pressure.

  • In recent years, the functional inks for printed electronics that can be combined with a variety of printing techniques have attracted increasingly significant interest for use in low cost, large area, high performance integrated electronics and microelectronics. In particular, the development of solution-processable conductor, semiconductor and insulator materials is of great importance as such materials have decisive impacts on the electrical performance of various electronic devices, and, therefore, need to meet various requirements including solution processability, high electrical performance, and environmental stability. Semiconductor inks such as IGO, CIGS are synthesized by chemical solution method and microwave reaction method for TFT and solar cell application. Fine circuit pattern with high conductivity, which is valuable for flexible electrode for PCB and TSP devices, can be printed with highly concentrated and stabilized conductor inks such as silver and copper. Solution processed insulator such as polyimide derivatives can be use to all printed TFT device. Our research results of functional inks for printed electronics provide a recent trends and issues on this area.
