Ink-jet printing has become a widespread technology with the society's increase in aesthetic awareness. Especially, ink-jet printing using glazed ceramic ink can offer huge advantages including high quality decoration, continuous processing, glaze patterning, and direct reproduction of high resolution images. Recently, ceramic ink-jet printing has been rapidly introduced to decorate the porcelain product and the ceramic tiles. In this study, we provide an effective method to apply ceramic ink-jet decorations on the glass substrates using a oleophobic coating with perfluorooctyl trichlorosilane. The ink-jet printed patterns were much clearer on the oleophobically coated glass surface than the bare glass surface. The contact angle of the ceramic ink was maximized to the value of $64.0^{\circ}$ on the glass surface, when it was treated with 1 vol% PFTS solution for 1 min. The effects of the printing conditions and firing process on the ink-jet printed patterns on the oleophobically coated glass were also investigated.

In this study, the characteristics of anti-pollution coatings on glass substrates through annealing treatment were investigated. To investigate the change of properties by coating method and number of annealing treatment, after the anti-pollution coating was performed on the surface of glass substrate in three ways, the annealing treatment was performed by setting three kinds of annealing treatment conditions. The annealing treatment method is a torch using gas, which is advantage in that it can be installed directly on the site in an easy way compared with a annealing treatment process which is generally difficult. The anti-pollution properties, contact angle, transmittance, hardness, and adhesion of films on glass substrate were measured under 9 conditions of combination of coating methods and annealing treatment conditions. It was confirmed that as the number of annealing treatment increases, the anti-pollution property of the film synthesized on glass substrate becomes better.

Large area crystallization of amorphous silicon thin-films on glass substrates is one of key technologies in manufacturing flat displays. Among various crystallization technologies, the Joule induced crystallization (JIC) is considered as the highly promising one in the OLED fabrication industries, since the amorphous silicon films on the glass can be crystallized within tens of microseconds, minimizing the thermally and structurally harmful influence on the glass. In the JIC process the metallic layers can be utilized to heat up the amorphous silicon thin films beyond the melting temperatures of silicon and can be fabricated as electrodes in OLED devices during the subsequent processes. This numerical study investigates the heating mechanisms during the JIC process and estimates the deformation of the glass substrate. Based on the thermal analysis, we can understand the temporal and spatial temperature fields of the backplane and its warping phenomena.

We have investigated the electro-optical (EO) performances of the flexible liquid crystal display (LCD) on twisted nematic (TN) mode according to variation of cell gap in comparison with glass LCD. There were four kinds of cells which were having cell gaps of 3$\mu$m, 4$\mu$m and 5$\mu$m, especially the lowest 2$\mu$m on flexible and glass substrates separately. The EO performances of the flexible cells on the rubbed potyimide (PI) were almost the same those of glass cells. The response time of flexible cells was shorter than that of glass cells but the alignment of liquid crystal (LC) of flexible cells was weaker than that of glass cells. The residual DC of flexible cells was on the increase like that of glass cells in compliance with lowering cell gap.

Since in vitro neural recording and imaging applications based on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique have expanded dramatically in recent years, cytotoxicity assessment to ensure the biosafety and biocompatibility for those applications is crucial. Here, we report the cytotoxicity of the SPR substrate incorporating a flint glass whose refractive index is larger than that of a conventional crown glass. A high refractive index glass substrate is essential in neural signal detection due to the advantages such as high sensitivity and wide dynamic range. From experimental data using primary hippocampal neurons, it is found that a lead-based flint glass is not appropriate as a neural recording template although the neuron cells are not directly attached to the toxic glass. We also demonstrate that the adhesion layer between the glass substrate and the gold film plays an important role in achieving the substrate stability and the cell viability.

Hydrophilic and transparent $TiO_2$ thin film was fabricated by sol-gel method and the properties of contact angle, surface morphology, and transmittance were measured. In addition, surfactant Tween 80 was used for increasing the hydrophilic property of thin film. When the contents of Tween 80 in $TiO_2$ solution was 0, 10, 30, 50wt%, the contact angles of $TiO_2$ thin film were $41.4^{\circ}$, $18.2^{\circ}$, $16.0^{\circ}$, $13.2^{\circ}$, respectively. Fabricated $TiO_2$ thin film showed the photocatalytic property that decomposed methylene blue and decreased the absorbance of solution after UV irradiation. $TiO_2$ thin films fabricated with the solution of 30 wt% Tween 80 were deposited on glass (bare), antimony tin oxide (ATO), fluorine tin oxide (FTO), indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates, and the contact angle and transmittance of thin film was measured. The contact angles of thin films deposited on four substrates were $16.2\sim27.1^{\circ}$ and was decreased to the range of $13.2\sim17.6^{\circ}$ after UV irradiation, Especially, the thin films coated on ATO and FTO glass substrate showed high transmittance of 74.6% in visible range, respectively, and low transmittance of 54.2% and 40.4% in infrared range, respectively.

The structure of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass, bare glass and (100) Si substrates was not changed, but the crystallinity was improved by the polycrystalline ITO layer and (100) Si substrate. The composition of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was nearly stoichiometric ((Ba+Sr)/Ti=1.08~1.09) and very uniform through all deposition process. But as the deposition temperature increases, the interdiffusion between grown thin film and ITO layer and between ITO layer and base glass is severer. $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass substrate was highly transparent. The refractive index($n_f$) of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was 2.138~2.286 as a function of substrate temperature.

The effective glass frit composition used to absorb laser energy and to seal commercial dye-sensitized solar cell panel substrates has been previously developed using $V_2O_5-TeO_2$-based glass with 10 wt% ${\beta}$-eucryptite as a CTE controlling filler. The optimum sealing conditions are provided using a 3 mm beam, a laser power of 40 watt, a scan speed of 300 mm/s, and 200 irradiation cycles. In this study, the feasibility of the developed glass frit is investigated in terms of the sealing strength and chemical durability against the commercial iodide/triiodide electrolyte solution and fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode in order to increase the solar cell lifetime. The sealing strength of the laser-sealed $V_2O_5-TeO_2$-based glass frit is $20.5{\pm}1.7MPa$, which is higher than those of thermally sealed glass frit and other reported glass frit. Furthermore, the developed glass frit is chemically stable against electrolyte solutions. The glass frit constituents are not leached out from the glass after soaking in the electrolyte solution for up to three months. During the laser sealing, the glass frit does not react with the FTO electrode; thus, the resistivity of the FTO electrode beneath the laser-sealed area remains the same.
