It is widely known that no-slip assumptions are often violated on regular basis in micrometer- or nanometer-scale fluid flow. In the case of cavity-filling process of nanoimprint lithography(NIL), slip phenomena take place naturally at the solid-to-liquid boundaries, that is, at the mold-to-polymer or polymer-to-substrate boundaries. If the slip or partial slip phenomena are promoted at the boundaries, the processing time of NIL, especially of thermal-NIL which consumes more tact time than that of UV-NIL, can be significantly improved. In this paper it is aimed to elucidate how the cavity-filling process of NIL can be influenced by the slip phenomena at boundaries and to what degree those phenomena increase the process rate. To do so, computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis of cavity filling process has been carried out. Also, the effect of mold pattern shape and initial thickness of polymer resist were considered in the analysis, as well.

A new PDP barrier rib formation technique was investigated utilizing transparent soft maid made of silicon resin. Transparent soft mold was fabricated by pouring a silicone resin into the base mold made with photosensitive glass. The photosensitive barrier rib paste was coated on the glass substrate and dried in a 90 $^{\circ}C$ convection oven for 20min. The transparent soft mold was pressed on top of the semi-dry barrier rib layer and then irradiated with a UV lamp to a total dose of $900{\sim}1000mJ/cm^2$ The soft maid was then removed from the pressed barrier rib by winding up and fine pattern of barrier rib was obtained. The photosensitive barrier rib paste makes the demolding easy due to reduced interfacial forces and shrinking of paste materials.

We demonstrated the capillary force lithography (CFL) method for controlling the azimuthal anchoring energy of a liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer. When a thermoplastic polymer film is heated to over the glass transition temperature, the melted polymer is filled into the mold structure by the capillary action and the aspect ratio of the pattern is determined by the dewetting time of the CFL process. Here, the proposed method showed that the azimuthal anchoring energy of the LC alignment layer could be simply controlled by the surface relief patterns which were determined by the dewetting times during the CFL patterning.

The objective of the present study was to manufacture the piezoelectric composites of Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) - polymer for applications such as ultrasonic medical diagnosis and hydrophone. The PZT rod-polymer composites have been prepared with 4.5 to 57 volume percent PZT using 1.5 mm rod, so the connectivity pattern of the two phase is 1-3 type. The electromechanical coupling factors of radial mode ($k_{p}$) and thickness mode ($k_{t}$) were nearly independent of the volume percent PZT, which were 0.3 and 0.65, respectively. The acoustic impedance of the piezoelectric composites was measured by the resonance technique in the frequency range 50 KHz-1.5 MHz, which was in the range of 3.8 - 60 Mrayl.

In this paper, interpenetrating polymer network method was introduced in order to improve withstand voltage properties of epoxy resin. The single network structure specimen(E series), simultaneous interpenetrating polymer network specimen(EM series) and pseudo interpenetrating polymer network(EMP series) specimen were manufactured. In order to investigate influence upon electrical properties, dc, ac, and impulse voltage dielectric strength were measured. As a result, it was confirmed that electrical properties of epoxy composites can be superior as IPN introduced to it bring about firm and high density of inner structure.

The supermolecular structures of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN), and their blend were investigated with optical microscopy and small angle light scattering. With increasing the crystallization temperature, incomplete spherulitic texture was developed for the PET samples. At a high crystallization temperature of 220 $^{\circ}C$, the light scattering pattern represented a random collection of uncorrelated lamellae. The general morphological appearances for the PEN samples were similar to that of the PET. A notable feature was that the spherulites of the PEN formed at 200 $^{\circ}C$ showed regular concentric bands arising from a regular twist in the radiating lamellae. The spherulitic morphology of the PET/PEN blend was largely influenced by the changes of the sequence distribution in polymer chains determined by the level of transesterifcation. The increased sequential irregularity in the polymer chains via transesterification caused a morphological transition from a regular folded crystallite to a tilted lamellar crystallite.

Thermal transfer of emitting layer from the donor film to the substrates depends on the physical interaction between the donor film, the emitting layer, and the hole-transport layer (HTL). The interfacial adhesion between the donor film and the EML, the cohesive force of the EML, and the interfacial adhesion between the EML and the HIL have to be optimized to achieve good LITI pattern quality. It was found that surface pretreatment of the donor plate was important on the laser induced thermal transfer of the emitting layer onto the HIL layer of the OLED devices.

Applying a designed test coupon pattern for fabricating resistors various resistors were formed using PTF(polymer thick film) pastes. Aspect ratio from 0.25 to 4 were selected for fabricating resistors. Formed resistors were cured at $170^{\circ}C$ and $240^{\circ}C$. Electrical properties of fabricated resistors were measured and their values analyzed in relation to cure temperature and formed geometry via printing. Also effects of substrates used for fabricating resistors were observed.

Polymer thick film resistor paste was fabricated using various materials. Inorganic materials of carbon black and graphite were selected as fillers and epoxy resin was selected as organic material. Solvent with high boiling temperature was applied to adjust viscosity. A designed test coupon pattern was used to evaluate fabricated resistors. Aspect ratio of 1 was selected for evaluating resistor values. Electrical properties of fabricated resistors were measured and their values analyzed in relation to paste composition. PTF fabricated using carbon black as fillers achieved resistor value of $530{\Omega}/sq$.

In this study, to achieve the optimal conditions for mechanical hyper-fine pattern fabrication process, deformation behavior of the materials during indentation was studied with numerical method by ABAQUS S/W. Polymer (PMMA) and brittle materials (Si, Pyrex glass) were used as specimens, and forming conditions to reduce the elastic restoration and pile-up was proposed. The indenter was modeled a rigid surface. Minimum mesh sizes of specimens are 1-l0mm. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern and mold.
