In the present work, a Ni-doped indium zinc oxide (NIZO) film and its multilayers with Ag layers were investigated as transparent conducting electrodes for liquid crystal display (LCD) applications, as a substitute for indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. By interposing the Ag layer between the NIZO layers, the loss of the optical transmittance occurred; however, the Ag layer brought enhancement of electrical sheet resistance to the NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode. The twisted nematic cell based on the NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode exhibited superior electro-optical characteristics than those based on single NIZO electrode and was competitive compared to those based on the conventional ITO electrode. An LCD-based NIZO/Ag/NIZO multilayer electrode may allow new approaches to conventional ITO electrodes in display technology.

Flat Panel Displays (FPDs) have made a revolution in the display industry. TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display) has been the main player of FPD for last two decades. As the industry continuously develops the technology for better performance with lower cost is constantly demanded where several post LCD technologies are being developed. One of the prime candidates of post LCD technology is AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) that is considered to be an ideal FPD due to its extraordinary display performance and potentially low cost display structure. This technology has been accepted to small size display applications, such as cellular phone, PDA and PMP, etc. In this paper it is discussed that how this technology can be extended to large size display applications, such as TV. The technical issues and solutions of TFT backplane and color patterning of OLED materials are discussed and proposed

Orientations of liquid crystal molecules on a surface of a film of photoreactive polyvinylcinnamate were investigated in order to apply as an alignment layer of LCD. When the polyvinylcinnamate film was exposed to linearly polarized W light, optical anisotropy was induced in the film through a selective photoreaction. Liquid crystal molecules on a surface of the film was aligned along the oriented polymer chain direction through intermolecular interactions. Thermal and light stability of the photoaligned LC cell were studied by investigating LC alignment changes after the alignment layer was treated with heat and W light. When the film was exposed with linearly polarized UV several times, the LC alignment was induced only along the final UV exposure direction.

최근에는 전자 장치가 소형화, 경량화되는 추세이다. 이러한 전자 장치와 인간의 접속 방법으로 표시기(display)가 사용된다. 표시 기술은 표1에 나타난 것처럼 CRT, PDP, LCD, ECD, 기타 등으로 구별할 수 있다. 그중에서 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display)는 낮은 전력 소모, 낮은 구동 전압, 소형, 경량, gray scale 기능, 저가격 등의 장점이 있기 때문에 많은 연구가 수행되고 있다. 액정 지시기는 외부 전장에 의한 분자의 배열이 이루어져, 빛을 선별 투과 혹은 반사시켜 빛의 세기를 조절하는 특성을 이용하여 정보 전달 기능을 갖는다. LCD는 시계, 전자계산기, TV, 컴퓨터 단말기 등에 이용된다. LCD에 사용되는 액정은 구조적 특성에 따라서 semetic, cholestic, nematic액적으로 분류된다. 그런데 nematic액정이 분자 재배열에 필요한 반응 시간이 가장 빠르기 때문에 많이 사용된다.

This paper deals with the algorithm development that inspects defects such as Bright Defect Dots, Dark Defect Dots, and Line Defect caused by the process of LCD(Liquid Crystal Display). While most of LCD production process is automated, the inspection of LCD panel and its appearance depends on manual process. So, the quality of the inspection is affected by the condition of worker. Especially, the more LCD size increases, the more the worker feels fatigued, which causes the probability of miss judgement. So, the automated inspection is required to manage the consistent quality of the product and reduce the production costs. In this paper, to solve these problems, we developed the imaging processing algorithm to inspect the defects in captured image of LCD. Experimental results reveal that we can recognize various types of defect of LCD with good accuracy and high speed.

핸드폰에 장착된 반투과형 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) 패널에서 반사판을 제거하면 투과형 LCD 마스크로 이용할 수 있다. LCD 패널의 광 흡수 실험에서 얻은 스펙트럼을 참고하여 다양한 파장대의 광원으로 리소그래피 하였다. 컴퓨터 이미지 프로그램으로 편집한 그림을 핸드폰 전용 통신 케이블을 통하여 LCD 패널로 전송하여, 다양한 모양의 패턴을 기판위에 전사하는데 성공하였다. 픽셀간의 경계가 현상되어 끊어지는 패턴이 형성되는 LCD 마스크의 단점을 극복하여 연속적인 패턴결과를 얻는데도 성공하였다. 이로부터 프로젝션 리소그래피의 응용에 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 발판이 마련된 것으로 생각된다.

We have studied on response time of the fringe-field switching (FFS) TFT-LCD using the LCs with negative dielectric anisotropy related to rubbing angle. Simulation and experimental results shows that when a rubbing angle approached $45^{\circ}$, a slope of voltage-dependent curve is decreased such that the operation voltage is increased, however the whole response characteristic between inter-gray levels have a trend to be fast.

We demonstrate the wide-viewing characteristics of a twisted nematic liquid crystal display (LCD) with self-formed micro-domains through the topographical alignment and fringe field effects of dielectric surface gratings (DSG). The mutual optical compensation between micro-domains within each pixel eliminates the contrast inversion phenomenon of TN mode without complex surface treatments.

The current panels for liquid crystal display (LCD) TV sets are all characterized by pins placed on two sides. To manufacture one type of panel, a dedicated mask is needed, and the production line should be started once. Moreover, the whole panel needs to be removed if a dead pixel is found. If the panel, however, will first be fabricated with pins placed on four sides and then divided by a cross-cut into four equal-sized panels with pins placed on two sides, one set of masks can be used to manufacture two types of LCD panels, which was referred to by the authors as dual mode. In this paper, the concept of the dual mode and its differences from the conventional way of producing panels are introduced. Its advantages in boosting production efficiency, improving the product's good rate, and lowering the production cost are also described based on case studies. Of particular importance is the fact that the dual mode is very suitable for the trial production of very-large-area LCD TV sets.
