A new type $Cu_{x}N/Cu/Cu_{x}N$ thin film electrode material with high adhesion to glass was developed by the dc reactive planar magnetron sputtering system for the PDP(Plasma Display Panel). The adhesive force of the $Cu_{x}N$ thin film was in the range of $20{\sim}40(N)$ under the conditions of the $N_2$ partial pressure of 15%, discharge current of 70mA, discharge voltage of 450V and substrate bias voltage of -100V. The adhesive force was depended on the $N_2$ partial pressure, discharge current and substrate bias voltage.

Deformation of a mold is measured and analyzed in alignment and curing processes of UV-Imprint Lithography. We are focused on mold deformation caused by a UV resin, which is laminated between a mold and a target glass-panel. The UV resin is viscous in case of liquid state, and the resin will be solidified when being exposed by the ultra-violet light. The viscosity of the resin causes shear force on the mold during the alignment process. Moreover, the shrinkage during phase change from liquid to solid may cause residual stress on the mold. The experiments for measuring temperature and strain are made during alignment and curing process. Strain-gages and thermocouples are used for measuring the strain and variation of temperature on several points of the mold, respectively. The deformation of mold is also simulated and analyzed. The simulation results are compared with the experiments. Finally, sources of alignment errors in large area UV-nanoimprint lithography are discussed.

Alkaline earth metal oxides were added to the conventional MgO films as a protective layer for dielectric materials to have lower firing voltage(Vf) of the plasma display panel(PDP). Panels with various protective layers of MgO-alkaline earth metal oxides were prepared on glass by using e-beam evaporation and its effect on firing voltage characteristics were investigated. (Ba-Mg)O films had poor voltage characteristics because of higher activation energy of BaO. But, (Sr-Mg)O, (Ca-Mg)O and (Ca-Sr-Mg) O had better voltage characteristics than the conventional MgO. A mixture film of (Mg-Ca-Sr)O show the lowest firing voltage which is less than that of MgO by 20V. The chemical composition to have lowest firing voltage is MgO:SrO:CaO ratio of 6:2:2. The mixture of MgO-Alkaline earth metal oxides films showed good transmittance properties within the visual range.

Dry film method for large size of PDP(Plasma Display Panel) module has been actively investigated. This method for lead-free transparent dielectric formation depends on green sheet technology. By adjusting the composition of transparent dielectric powders and organics, uniformly dispersed slurry was fabricated, Viscosity of the slurry exhibited pseudoplastic behavior for tape casting, Cast green sheets were tested under tensile condition at room temperature. It was found that the increase in transparent dielectric powder and binder ratio leads to decrease in strain to failure of green sheets from 120 % to 34 % and from 255 % to 4 %, respectively. Tensile strength of green sheets decreased abruptly with increase of transparent dielectric powder ratio, with minimum at 0.13 MPa. On the other hand, tensile strength increased continuously from 0.1 MPa to 2.4 MPa with increase of binder ratio. The green sheets were attached on the glass substrate and heated by following firing schedule. As a result, the best result was obtained when fired at 580 $^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and had transmittance of 78 % in visible range 550 nm.

Acetone sensitized photoadditions of isopropanol to (5R)-5-menthyloxy-2-(5H)-furanone were investigated in two different microflow reactor systems. Setup A employed a commercially available glass reactor under a UVB-panel. Setup B utilized a FEP microcapillary wrapped tightly around a Pyrex cylinder with a single UVB fluorescent tube at its center. The reactions under flow conditions were subsequently compared to analogue reactions conducted in a batch chamber reactor. Overall, the microflow systems gave faster conversions and higher isolated yields. The flexible microcapillary setup, however, showed the best performance and promise in terms of future scale-up and reactor optimization.

Transparent noise barrier panels have the advantages of transmitting light to nearby residents and allowing drivers to orientate themselves by providing views of the surrounding area. To develop guidelines on quality criteria for transparent soundproof panels, their sound transmission loss and weatherability were experimentally investigated. In Korea, the sound transmission loss of noise barrier panels should be more than 25 dB at 500 Hz and 30 dB at 1000 Hz. The transmission loss tests of transparent panels were performed in accordance with KS F 2808. Typically, plastic materials suffer from color changes when exposed to ultraviolet(UV) light over extended periods. Therefore, weathering of plastics is one of the most important properties for outdoor applications. Protection against UV radiation and weathering is usually accomplished by using UV stabilizer additives or coatings. Transparent materials for soundproof panels were examined through accelerated weathering tests and their weathering resistances were evaluated from changes in yellowness index.

We have grown vertically aligned carbon nanotubes in a large area of Co-Ni codeposited Si substrates by the thermal CVD usign $C_2H_2$ gas. Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes, growth of carbon nanotubes has been achieved by several methods such as laser vaporization, arc discharge, and pyrolysis. In particular, growth of vertically aligned nanotubes is important to flat panel display applications. Recently, vertically aligned carbon nanotubes have been grown on glass by PECVD. Aligned carbon nanotubes can be also grown on mesoporous silica and Fe patterned porous silicon using CVD. In this paper, we demonstrate that carbon nanotubes can be vertically aligned on catalyzed Si substrate when the domain density of catalytic particles reaches a certain value. We suggest that steric hindrance between nanotubes at an initial stage of the growth forces nanotubes to align vertically and each nonotubes are grown in bundle.

Organic thin film transitors(OTFT) are of interest for use in broad area electronic applications. And recently organic electroluminescent devices(OELD) have been intensively investigated for using in full-color flat-panel display. We have fabricated inverted-staggered structure OTFTs at lower temperature using the fused-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pentacene as the active eletronic material and photoacryl as the organic gate insulator. The field effect mobility is 0.039∼0.17 ㎠/Vs, on-off current ratio is 10$\^$6/, and threshold voltage is -7V. And here we report the study of driving emitting, Ir(ppy)$_3$, phosphorescent OELD with all organic thin film transistor and investigated its electrical characteristics. The OELD with a structure of ITO/TPD/8% Ir(ooy)$_3$ doped in BCP/BCP/Alq$_3$/Li:Al/Al and OTFT with a structure of inverted-stagged Al(gate electrode)/photoacry(gate insulator)/pentacene(p-type organic semiconductor)/ Au(source-drain electrode) were fabricated on the ITP patterned glass substrate. The electrical characteristics are turn-on voltage of -10V, and maximum luminance of about 90 cd/㎡. Device characteristics were quite different with that of only OELD.

Flat panel displays fabricated on glass substrate use amorphous Si for data processing circuit. Recent progress in display technology requires a new material to replace the amorphous Si, and ZnO is a good candidate. ZnO is a wide bandgap (3.3 eV) semiconductor with high mobility and good optical transparency. ZnO is usually grown by sputtering using ZnO ceramic target. However, ceramic target is more expensive than metal target, and making large area target is very difficult. In this work we studied characteristics of ZnO thin-film transistor grown by rf sputtering using Zn metal target and $CO_2$. ZnO film was grown at $450^{\circ}C$ substrate temperature, with -70 V substrate bias voltage applied. By using these methods, our ZnO TFT showed $5.2cm^2/Vsec$ mobility, $3{\times}10^6$ on-off ratio, and -7 V threshold voltage.

This paper presents the flexural behavior of a hybrid Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer(GFRP)-steel decks for use in deteriorated bridge decks replacement. Static load tests were conducted to investigate the structural characteristics of the hybrid FRP-steel deck. The tested deck panel satisfied the design criteria. The failure mode of the hybrid deck was demonstrated ductility with deformation beyond initial yielding. The responses were compared with the ANSYS finite element predictions. It was found that the presented hybrid deck was efficient for use in bridges. The thickness of the hybrid deck may be decreased when compared to that of the all FRP deck with similar flexural rigidity.
