육각형 구조를 지닌 2차원의 물질인 그래핀은 우수한 전도도와 투과율로 투명전극의 신소재로 각광 받고 있다. 특히, 그래핀은 현재 투명전극으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 Indium Tin Oxide(ITO)로는 구현하기 힘든 Flexible display의 어플리케이션으로 사용하기 위한 목적으로 많은 기술 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 그래핀의 응용은 가장 먼저 그래핀의 생산이 안정적이고 원활히 이루어질 때 실질적으로 가능할 것이다. 하지만, 탄소로 이루어진 그래핀의 성장은 제한된 기판 위에서만 가능하기 때문에 성장이 이루어진 그래핀을 다른 기판에 전사시켜야하는 문제점이 있다. 그래핀 전사방법에는 직접전사, PMMA 전사, TRT 전사, 금속전사, 망전사, PDMS 전사 등 다양한 방법이 있다. 이 중에서 현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 전사방법으로는 직접전사, PMMA 전사, TRT 전사 방법이 있다. 직접전사의 경우 니켈위에 성장된 다층의 그래핀을 전사시킬 때 많이 사용되는 방법으로 니켈 에천트에 전사 시킬 그래핀을 띄워 니켈을 녹인 후 원하는 기판을 이용하여 전사하는 간단한 방법이다. 직접전사는 전사가 이루어진 후 그래핀에 남는 결함이 거의 존재 하지 않는 장점이 있지만 문제점은 단일층의 그래핀의 경우 니켈 에천트위에서 잘 보이지 않을 뿐 아니라 에천트에서 기판으로 전사할 때 너무 얇은 막으로 인해 다 찢어져버린다는 것이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 사용되는 전사 방법으로 TRT를 이용하여 구리위에 성장된 그래핀을 상온 시에는 점성을 가진 테이프를 이용해 부치고 구리에 천트에 구리를 녹인 후 원하는 기판위에 놓고 열을 가해 그래핀을 전사하는 방법이 있다. TRT 전사방법은 얇은 막의 그래핀을 찢어지지 않도록 지지해주어 대면적 기판위에도 전사 할 수 있는 장점이 있지만 전사 후 그래핀에 남아 있는 잔여물들이 많고(그림 1. (b)), 테이프를 이용한다는 점에서 그래핀의 얇은 막이 손상될 수 있는 단점이 있다. 그렇기 때문에 본 연구에서는 직접전사와 TRT전사의 문제점들인 전사 후 잔여물와 그래핀 단일층의 손상을 최소화할 수 있는 방법으로 PMMA전사를 가장 적합한 전사방법이라는 것을 라만 분석, 면 저항측정, 그래핀을 이용한 LED제작을 통해서 살펴 보았다. 먼저 라만 분석을 이용해 TRT전사 후 상당히 많은 빈 공간이 생김을 확인할 수 있었으며, 결과적으로 면 저항이 약 $1.5k{\Omega}$~$3M{\Omega}$까지 PMMA의 약 0.9~1.2 $k{\Omega}$와 비교했을 때 큰 차이가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 이후 각각의 전사방법으로 얻은 그래핀을 LED의 스프레딩 층으로 제작한 결과에서도 TRT전사방법보다 PMMA전사방법의 결과가 좋음을 알 수 있었다(그림 2).

Next-generation displays should be transparent and flexible as well as having high resolution and frame number. The main factor for active matrix organic light emitting diode and next-generation displays is the development of TFTs (thin-film transistors) with high mobility and large area uniformity. The TFTs used for transparent displays are mainly oxide TFT that has oxide semiconductor as channel layer. Zinc-oxide based substances such as indium-gallium-zinc-oxide has attracted attention in the display industry. In this paper, the mobility improvement of low cost oxide TFT is studied for fast operating next-generation displays by overcoming disadvantages of amorphous silicon TFT that has low mobility and poly silicon TFT that requires expensive equipment for complex process and doping process.

This Paper proposes an effective SoC hardware architecture implementing a VDP for Full HD TVs. The proposed architecture makes real time video processing possible with supporting efficient bus architecture and flexible interface. Video IP cores in the VDP are designed to provide a high quality of improved image enhancement function. The Avalon interface is adopted to guarantee real-time capability to IPs as well as SoC integration. This leads to reduced design time and also enhanced designer's convenience due to the easiness in IP addition, deletion, and revision for IP verification and SoC integration. The embedded software makes it possible to implement flexible real-time system by controlling setting parameter details and data transmitting schemes in real-time. The proposed VDP SoC design is implemented on Cyclon III SoPC platform. The experimental results show that our proposed architecture of the VDP SoC successfully provides required quality of Video image by converting SD level input to Full HD level image.

In this study, the IOT-based desk layout method was proposed to complement the existing seating method and to improve the work efficiency. The IoT system for the desk layout needs determining the function, type and network protocol of the sensor to find out the working status of the desk to reasonably assist the worker's seat placement. A collection method was proposed. The algorithm used in Block Stacking was used when deciding how to allocate seats using the acquired data. As a result, we could suggest an arithmetic basis for rational desk layout in IoT environment and show that it can be applied to an advanced flexible seating system based on working type in addition to the preferences of employees in the future.

In this study, we investigated the electrical, optical, structural, and surface properties of indium zinc oxide (IZO)/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode grown by specially designed roll-to-roll sputtering system using the flexible substrate. By the continuous roll-to-roll sputtering of the bottom IZO, Ag, and top IZO layers at room temperature, they were able to fabricate a high quality IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode. At optimized conditions, the bottom IZO layer (40 nm) was deposited on a flexible substrate. After deposition of the Bottom IZO layer, Ag layer was deposited onto the bottom IZO film as a function of DC power (200~500 W). Subsequently, the top IZO layer was deposited onto the Ag layer at identical deposition conditions to the bottom IZO layer (40 nm). We investigated the characteristics of IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode as a function of Ag thickness. It was found that the electrical and optical properties of IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode was mainly affected thickness of the Ag layer at optimized condition. In case of IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode with the Ag power (350W), it exhibited a low sheet resistance of 7.1 ohm/square and a high transparency of 86.4%. Furthermore, we fabricated the touch screen panel using the IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode, which demonstrate the possibility of the IZO/Ag/IZO multilayer electrode grown by roll-to-roll sputtering system as a transparent conducting layer in the touch screen panel.

In Video streaming environment, we must consider terminal and network characteristics, such as display resolution, frame rate, computational resource, network bandwidth, etc. The JVT (Joint Video Team) by ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-TVCEG is currently standardizing Scalable Video Coding (SVC). This can represent video bitstreams in different sealable layers for flexible adaptation to terminal and network characteristics. This characteristic is very useful in video streaming applications. One fully scalable video can be extracted with specific target spatial resolution, temporal frame rate and quality level to match the requirements of terminals and networks. Besides, the extraction process is fast and consumes little computational resource, so it is possible to extract the partial video bitstream online to accommodate with changing network conditions etc. With all the advantages of SVC, we design and implement a network-adaptive SVC streaming system with an SVC extractor and a streamer to extract appropriate amounts of bitstreams to meet the required target bitrates and spatial resolutions. The proposed SVC extraction is designed to allow for flexible switching from layer to layer in SVC bitstreams online to cope with the change in network bandwidth. The extraction is made in every GOP unit. We present the implementation of our SVC streaming system with experimental results.

The progress in flat panel displays over the last two decades has been astonishing. In just 20 years, the LCD-TV grew up from a 2-inch curiosity, to an industry that will sell about 120 million flat panel TV's this year, with viewing area up to 4000 times larger. That success is based on continuous innovation, especially in manufacturing processes. For the next decade to bring another doubling of the business, progress will need to continue in four major areas: Human factors, ecological impact, visual quality, and of course continued drive towards affordability. This talk will detail the technology advances that can allow this industry to meet those challenges. Human factors. Today, we adapt our lifestyle to our technology. People organize their offices, and their homes, around displays. We pass around mobile phones to share images, rather than experiencing them as a group. Billions of newspapers continue to be sold daily. Advances in flexible displays can lead to large portable displays. "New era projection" includes the handheld Pico Projectors that are already on the market, and will ultimately appear integrated in mobile phones the same way cameras do today. "Eco" impact. Today TV's are one of the top energy consumers in a U.S. home, and the fastest growing. Watching a large flat panel TV can cost twice as much as running a large refrigerator. With today's concern about energy consumption, regulations are starting to emerge worldwide to limit TV electrical use. Fortunately, good solutions exist in using light management films to eliminate bulbs, saving power without increasing cost. Going forward, LED backlights will drive another step downward. OLED displays might be the ultimate solution. Visual quality. The color of an LCD-TV is still often considered inferior to a far less expensive CRT. And almost all displays suffer from representing a three-dimensional world on a two dimensional surface. The technology to improve color is available today, and will likely move from premium sets into the mainstream as costs come down. 3D is now arriving in movie theaters worldwide, and that will drive up the demand for similar realistic images in home theaters. And the technology is emerging today for 3D representation to move beyond specialized applications into everyday use, on screens large and small. Affordability. The world takes cost-down miracles for granted in consumer electronics. Each of these other advances will be balanced with a drive for affordability, especially as the market grows in emerging countries. The other three challenges must be met without increasing cost. Putting this all together, the next few years will emphasize "eco friendly" designs, and enhanced images such as 3D. By 2013 we will start to see serious penetration by emissive technologies (OLED, high efficiency plasma, or other), with the "ultimate display" likely not in the market for a decade. Lots of opportunities for innovation remain ahead of us.
