Encapsulation is required since organic materials used in OLED devices are fragile to water vapor and oxygen. Laser sealing method is currently used where IR laser is scanned along the glass-frit coated lines. Laser method is, however, not suitable to encapsulating large-sized glass substrate due to the nature of sequential scanning. In this work we propose a new method of encapsulation using Joule heating. Conductive layer is patterned along the sealing lines on which the glass frit is screen printed and sintered. Electric field is then applied to the conductive layer resulting in bonding both the panel glass and the encapsulation glass by melting glass-frit. In order to obtain uniform bonding the temperature of a conductive layer having a shape of closed loop should be uniform. In this work we conducted simulation for heat distribution according to the structure of a conductive layer used as a Joule-heat source. Uniform temperature was obtained with an error of 5% by optimizing the structure of a conductive layer. Based on the results of thermal simulations we concluded that Joule-heating induced encapsulation would be a good candidate for encapsulation method especially for large area glass substrate.

디지털 홀로그래피가 아날로그 홀로그래피와 비슷한 품질을 나타내기 위해서는 $1{\mu}m$의 픽셀피치를 가지고 있는 대면적 SLM 개발이 필수적이다. 이러한 대면적 초고해상도 SLM을 구현하기 위해서는 최근 미세 픽셀 기술이 급격히 발전하고 있는 대면적 지향의 평판디스플레이 기술을 기반으로 개발되어야 할 것으로 생각된다. 디스플레이 기술을 기반으로 스티칭 기술 등의 포토리소그래피 기술과 수직채널 TFT등의 구동 소자 기술, 고굴절율 이방성을 가지는 액정 소재 기술, 모듈 기반의 구동 기술 등을 집약하여 $1{\mu}m$급의 픽셀 피치를 가지는 대면적 초고해상도 SLM을 개발 중이다. 이렇게 개발된 초고해상도 대면적 SLM은 홀로그램 영상 재현 이외에도 다양한 광학 소자로 응용이 기대된다.

Active-matrix field emission display (AMFED) based on carbon nanotube (CNT) emitter and amorphous silicon thin-film transistor (a-Si TFT) is reviewed. The AMFED pixels consisted of a high-voltage a-Si TFT and mesh-gated CNT emitters. The developed AMFED panel showed a high performance with a driving voltage of below 15 V. The low-cost and large-area AMFED approach with a metal mesh technology will be discussed.

Photoconductor for direct detection flat-panel imager present a great materials challenge, since their requirements include high X -ray absorption, ionization and charge collection, low leakage current and large area deposition. Selenium is practical material. But it needs high thickness and high voltage in selenium for high ionization rate. We report comparative studies of detector sensitivity. One is an a-Se with $70{\mu}m$ thickness on glass. The other has hybrid layer of depositting ZnS phosphor with $100{\mu}m$ on a-Se. The leakage current of hybrid is similar to it of a-Se, but photocurrent is lager than a-Se. Both of them have high spatial resolution, but hybrid has higher sensitivity than a-Se at comparable bias voltage.

Organic-based electroluminescent devices have attracted lots of interests because of their possible application as a large-area flat panel display. Polyimides have been used for photo-alignment in LCD(Liquid Crystal Display). However, the devices used in this study were fabricated with polyimide doped with N,N'-Diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine(TPD) (3, 10, 30wt%) for electroluminescent hole tranforting layer(EHTL). The photochemical and physical properties of EHTL was studied. The film thicknesses were reduced under illumination with UV light. Polyimide films doped with TPD(3wt%) was irradiated and the electrical properties of the films were studied.

Electroluminescent(EL) devices based on organic materials have been of great interest due to their possible applications for large-area flat-panel displays. They are attractive because of multicolor emission low operation voltage. In this study, several Eu complexes such as Eu(TPB)$_3$(Phen) and Eu(TPB)$_3$(Bpy) were synthesized and the photoluminescence(PL) and electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of their thin films were investigated by fabricating the devices having a structure of glass substrate/ITO/TPD/Europium-complexs/Alq$_3$/Al, where aromatic diamine(TPD) was used as an hole transporting and Alq$_3$ was used as an electron transporting materials. It was found that the photoluminescence(PL) and electroluminescence(EL) characteristics of these Europium complexes were dependent upon the ligands coordinated to Europium metal. Details on the explanation of electrical transport phenomena of the structure with I-V characteristics of the OLEDs using the trapped-charge-limited current(TCLC) model will be discussed.

Flat panel image display devices such as TFT LCD and PDP have required more large area and high quality control components. To control the qualities of the components, measurements of the flatness of a plate glass has been required. In order to measure the shape of the specular objects, Non-Contact Optical Sensor using Hologram laser unit was proposed. The sensor has a optical system that is composed of a Hologram laser and objective lens. The temperature of the sensor body is controlled by TEC(Thermoelectric Cooler) to maintain the same wavelength of the diode laser. In this research, we proposed the calibration scheme to make sensor real time measuring sensor. From the experimental results we see that the proposed sensor unit can measure the position of the glass surface in rial time.

Accurate optical texturing of light guide plate over the entire surface area is an important technical issue in LCD TV industry. Injection molding process has the potential to produce large light guide plates having highly efficient optical textures such as micro-prism array. This study is focused on the effect of the degree of replication of the micro texture of the 40" injection molded light guide plates on the overall optical performance of the display panel. Measured replication ratios of the micro-textures formed with three different types of injection molding process were considered in the modeling of prismatic micro segment array. Optical simulation was conducted and results were discussed.

This paper discusses an experimental method for measuring the insertion loss (IL) performance of multi-layered insulations that are used in vehicles. Instead of two adjacent reverberation chambers which are generally used to measure the transmission loss (TL) of the large sound isolation materials, air-borne sound insulation tester was utilized to determine the IL and articulation index (AI) of standardized insulation materials. In comparison to reverberation chamber method, air-borne sound insulation tester method is more space-saving, more time-saving and more simple to the automotive acoustics. From the empirical results, it is found that the performances of insulation materials are closely connected with density of polyurethane foam, thickness of heavy layer, thickness of polyurethane foam, and application ratio to panel area.

The SWCNTs network are formed on various plastic substrates such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), polyimide (PI) and soda lime glass using roll-to-roll printing and spray process. Selective patterning of carbon nanotubes film on transparent substrates was performed using a femtosecond laser. This process has many advantages because it is performed without chemicals and is easily applied to large-area patterning. It could also control the transparency and conductivity of CNT film by selective removal of CNTs. Furthermore, selective cutting of carbon nanotube using a femtosecond laser does not cause any phase change in the CNTs, as usually shown in focused ion beam irradiation of the CNTs. The patterned SWCNT films on transparent substrate can be used electrode layer for touch panels of flexible or flat panel display instead indium tin oxide (ITO) film.
