The optoelectronic display units such as TFT-LCD or OLED require many thin optical plastic films and their mass manufacturing processes employ CO2 laser cutting of those thin films in a large quantity. However, laser film cutting could generate fume particles through melt shearing, vaporization, and chemical degradation and those particles could be of great concern for film surface contamination. In order to appreciate the fume particle dispersion behaviors in laser film cutting, this study relies on random particle simulations by probabilistic distributions of particle size, ejection velocity and angles coupled with Basset-Boussinesq-Oseen model of particle trajectory in low Reynolds number flows. Here, up to one million particles of random sampling have been tested to effectively show fume particles dispersed on the film surface. The computational results could show that particular range of fume particle size could easily disperse into the pixel region of processed optical films.

The statistical process control charts are very extensively used for monitoring of process mean, deviation, defect rate or reject rate. In this paper we consider a control chart to monitor the process reject rate in the high yield process, which is based on the observed cumulative probability of the number of items inspected until r defective items are observed. We first propose selection of the optimal value of r in the CPC-r charts, and also consider the usefulness of the chart in high yield process such as semiconductor or TFT-LCD manufacturing process.

Slit-coater nozzle is one of core equipments of coating process in LCD panel manufactory. As a glass substrate size become bigger, a nozzle performance and a high-speed coating process are considered important issues. To design the optimal nozzle, the characteristics of fluid inside nozzle are studied using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. Through research on design factors, we can know the coating uniformity influenced by lip length, cavity angle and gap size. The future work for this study is to find the factors in high-speed coating process and function between factors of design.

In the case of a sensitive equipment, it require a vibration free environment to provide its proper function. Especially, lithography and inspection device, which have sub-nanometer class high accuracy and resolution, have come to necessity for producing more improved Giga Class semi conductor wafers. The aim of this study is to evaluate the allowable vibration response of a precision inspect ion equipment, which has some trouble in field, by using experimental measurement data and to proposal a proper ant i-vibration method.

This paper proposes a new method for the digit recognition on a 7-segment display. The proposed method uses morphological processing that dilates segments of digits and connects them into strokes. The digits are extracted by connected component analysis and finally, template matching method recognizes the extracted digits. The proposed method is implemented using C language in Raspberry Pi 4 system with a camera module for a real-time image processing. Experiments were conducted by using various 7-segment LED displays and 7-segment mono LCD displays. The results show that the proposed method is successful for the digit recognition on the 7-segment displays.

In this paper, we present the design of a source driver of QVGA scale TFT-LCD driver IC which uses a mixed driving method and performs $\gamma$-correction to improve image. The source driver with 240 RGB ${\times}$ 320 dots resolution drives a TFT-LCD panel through 720 channels and implements 262k colors using 18-bit RGB data format. The mixed driving method is a mixture the channel amp. driving method with high drivability and the gray amp. driving method with small area, which remarkably reduces channel driver areas. The driver has been designed using the $0.35{\mu}m$ Magnachip embedded DRAM technology and simulated using the HSPICE simulator. The results show that our source driver operates well with y-correction and the channel driver has $17{\mu}s$ channel driving time with only 78 driving amplifiers and control logic.

The Paper presents some potential new uses for Head-Up Displays (HUDs) in vehicular applications, where the information conveyed to the driver goes well beyond the content of today's production HUDs. Such information potentially related to the use of cellular telephones, navigation systems, vehicle to roadside communications systems, and many others. Improvements in flat panel display technologies are enabling the presentation of larger, more reconfigurable, more daylight-viewable HUD images. In addition, A Formal test and evaluation is proposed to ensure that new information displays support the driver tasks. The above developments suggest increased future opportunities for HUDs to present useful information in an as-needed, eyes-on-the-road manner.

Liquid crystal molecules with a new fluoro-isothiocyanate moiety were synthesized. They showed remarkably high $T_{NI}$ (>190 $^{\circ}C$), wide mesophase range of 170 $^{\circ}C$, high dielectric anisotropy (>14) and high optical anisotropy (>0.28). New LC Mixtures of the high $T_{NI}$ (>$85^{\circ}C$) was blended with the novel fluoro-isothiocyanate containing LC molecules, phenylcyclohexanes, bicyclohexanes and ester compounds. The LC mixtures show a fast speed (<10ms) of the below one frame rate in 17" WXGA panel.

P-type transparent semiconductor $SrCu_2O_2$ thin films have been prepared by RF sputtering using low-alkali glass for LCD and quartz as substrates. Single phase of $SrCu_2O_2$ powder was obtained by heating a stoichiometric mixture of CuO and $SrCO_3$ at 1223K for 96h under N2 gas flow, and target was fabricated at 1243K for 24h. Room temperature conductivity of the sintered body was about 0.02S/cm, and the activation energy in the temperature range of $-50^{\circ}C$~RT and RT~$150^{\circ}C$ were 0.18eV, 0.07eV, respectively. Effects of deposition pressure and post-annealing temperature on the electrical and optical properties of the obtained thin film have been investigated.

With the help of the development of digital-multimedia in the middle of 1990's, FDP(Flat Panel Display) had attracted considerable attention. Collimation proximity exposure system that transfers the pattern on wafer or glass exactly using mask and light with appropriate wavelength is core process in semiconductor and liquid display element. The performances of resolution required in precision exposure system are evaluated by resolving power, depth of focus and storage area. Most of development has targeted on these three factors. The optical design including lamp house has played an important role on the performance of exposure process. In this study, we evaluate the cooling system, concerning on exposure device with mercury lamp among the kernel equipment for the production of LCD, to prevent the instability of lighting due to long term accumulation of excessive heating inside the lamp house. Numerical analysis is conducted on full-scale model. The characteristics of three-dimensional flow, pressure and temperature distribution on exposure system are graphically depicted to estimate the whole cooling system for lamp house and to establish the design criteria.
