Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been studied extensively due to their excellent physical, chemical, and electrical properties. Among them, we report the material and device characteristics of tin disulfide ($SnS_2$). To apply $SnS_2$ as a channel layer in a transistor, $SnS_2$ channels were formed by a stripping method and a transfer method. The limitation of this method is that it is difficult to produce uniform device characteristics over a large area. Therefore, we directly deposited $SnS_2$ by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and then performed lithography. This method was able to produce devices with repeatable characteristics over a large area. However, the $SnS_2$ film was damaged by the acetone used as a photoresist (PR) developer during the lithography process, with the electrical properties of mobility of $2.6{\times}10^{-4}cm^2/Vs$, S.S. of 58.1 V/decade, and on/off current ratio of $1.8{\times}10^2$. These results are not suitable for advanced electronic devices. In this study, we analyzed the effect of acetone on $SnS_2$ and studied the device process to prevent such damage. Using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a passivation layer during the lithography process, the electrical characteristics of the $SnS_2$ transistor had $2.11{\times}10^{-3}cm^2/Vs$ of mobility, 11.3 V/decade of S.S, and $2.5{\times}10^3$ of the on/off current ratio, which were 10x improvements to the $SnS_2$ transistor fabricated by the conventional method.

The technologies related to the development of cultural contents we known as cultural technology (CT). CT should evolve with the changes in the cultural contents market. Currently there are five major trends in cultural market change. First, consumers are seeking more and more sensible quality from products. Second, consumers are becoming less sensitive to the cognitive quality of products. Third, consumers demand more than what contemporary technology can offer. Fourth, as the cultural products market grows, the goal of content developments has shifted from producing a 'big hit product' to producing a product which will maintain market share. Fifth, cultural products are diversifying. All these trends make the cultural products developer's job more challenging. Sensation & emotional engineering (SE engineering) can be a useful tool for cultural products developers. SE engineering is a study of the somatic sensation and the aesthetic sensation for both fundamentals and applications aspects. By quantifying the physiological and psychological responses of consumers, it studies the physical nature of stimulants, providing basic knowledge for future applications and industrialization. One widely spread myth is that a sparkling idea from a talented individual will make a difference in the cultural products industry. The careful examinations of many successful cultural products prove this is not correct. Many successful cultural products are the result of a substantial amount of investment and employment of well polished marketing technology. A scientific approach is highly required for this matter and the SE engineering is an answer

Although Korea is a top market sharing and world leading producer and developer of flat panel display devices, relevant recycling technology is not up to her prestigious status. Besides, most of the waste glass arising from flat panel displays is currently land-filled. The present paper mainly reviews on development of recycling systems for waste TFT-LCD glass from end-of-life LCD TVs and monitors and TFT-LCD process waste of crushed glass particles with target end uses of raw material for high strength concrete pile and glass fibers, respectively. Waste LCD glass was recycled to fabricate ingredients for high strength concrete piles with enhanced physical properties and spherical foam products. The waste LCD glass recycling technology is already developed to fabricate long and short fibers at commercial level. In view of these, future R & D on waste LCD glass materials is to be directed toward implementation of commercial materials recycling system therefrom.
