High-quality a-Si TFTs were fabricated on 7 inch plastic PES substrates at $130^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. It had been shown that the key factor for successful TFT fabrication on the relatively large plastic substrates is thorough control of total active layer's stress by means of deposition temperature reduction and single layer's intrinsic stress optimization.

A 5.0-inch plastic TFT-LCD with the resolution of $400{\times}3{\times}300$ lines (120ppi) was developed. The device is a transmissive type with the transparent PES plastic substrates. The PES films with one side barrier coating were used for the device. In order to produce the high resolution display device, the alignments between all the layers for the TFT and CF are essential. The fundamental shrinkage effect and the thermal expansion behavior of the plastic substrates with and without the barrier coatings were studied. The proper annealing processes followed by immediate second bar-rier coating processes provide the optimal alignment between all the layers of the TFT and CF..

In this paper, key issues of stainless steel foil substrates for display applications have been described. We studied and analyzed technical issues on substrate passivation/planarization to control surface roughness and capacitive coupling from conductive substrates. A thick (either multiple or single) passivation/planarization layer needs to be applied on the nonelectronic-grade stainless steel substrate to provide a smooth surface and electrical insulation from the conductive substrate. Especially for large size, high-resolution display applications, low k and thick passivation/planarization layers should be used for appropriate capacitive coupling. Based on our initial study, a unit area capacitance of less than $2nF/cm^2$ of passivation/planarization layers is needed for 32" HD TV OLED displays.

Hydrolyzates from lignocellulosic biomass contain a mixture of simple sugars; the predominant ones being glucose, cellobiose and xylose. The fermentation of such mixtures to ethanol or other chemicals requires an understanding of how each of these substrates is utilized. Candida lusitaniae can efficiently produce ethanol from both glucose and cellobiose and is an attractive organism for ethanol production. Experiments were performed to obtain kinetic data for ethanol production from glucose, cellobiose and xylose. Various combinations were tested in order to determine kinetic behavior with multiple carbon sources. Glucose was shown to repress the utilization of cellobiose and xylose. However, cellobiose and xylose were simultaneously utilized after glucose depletion. Maximum volumetric ethanol production rates were 0.56, 0.33, and 0.003 g/L h from glucose, cellobiose and xylose, respectively. A kinetic model based on cAMP mediated catabolite repression was developed. This model adequately described the growth and ethanol production from a mixture of sugars in a batch culture.

Applying dual layer insulator on plastic substrates improved electrical characteristics of organic thin film transistor(TFT). A high-quality silicon dioxide(SiO$_2$) suitable for a insulator was deposited on plastic substrates by e-beam evaporation at 110$^{\circ}C$. The insulator film which was treated by N$_2$ annealing at 150$^{\circ}C$ showed excellent I-V, C-V characteristics. The dual layer insulator structure of polyimide-SiO$_2$ improved the roughness of SiO$_2$ surface and showed very low leakage current. In addition, the flat band voltage has been reduced from -2.5V to about 0.5V.

This paper describes on thinning SDB SOI substrates by SDB technology and Electro-chemical etch-stop. The surface of the fabricated SDB SOI substrates is more uniform than that grinding or polishing by mechanical method, and this process is possible to accurate SOI thickness control. During Electrochemical etch-stop, leakage current versus voltage curves were measured for analysis of the open current potential (OCP) point and the passivation potential (PP) poin and determinated to anodic passivation potential. The surface roughness and selectively controlled thickness of the fabricated SOI substrates were analyzed by using AFM and SEM, respectively.

We have investigated the generation of pretilt angle for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with rubbing alignment method on polyimide surfaces using plastic substrates. It was found that monodomain alignment of NLC is obtained with rubbing alignment method on polyimide surfaces using thin plastic substrates. The NLC pretilt angles on thin plastic substrates generated higher than that on glass substrate. Also, EO characteristics of the TN-LCD with a rubbed PI surface based on polymer substrate are almost the same as that of the TN-LCD with a rubbed PI surface based on glass. However, the transmittances of the TN-LCD with a rubbed PI surface based on polymer is less than that with a rubbed PI surface based on g1ass.

Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is a so-call nonconventional machining technique. This paper presents the experimental results of an EDM technique for the fabircation of microholes on #7440 pyrex glass substrates. With various applied voltages and various concentration of NaOH or KOH solution, the glass substrates have been microdrilled using the copper electrodes of which diameters are 250 ${\mu}m$ to 450 ${\mu}m$. The machined throughholes have been observed the top diameter, the bottom diameter and machining time have been measured. EDM in NaOH solution causes the fabrication to have better the surface condition, higher selective of electrode, lower concentration of solution with respect to EDM in KOH solution machined fabrication.

Epitaxially grown $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films on the MgO(100) substrates was prepared by dipping-pyrolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials. The films annealed at various temperatures were charactrized by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and pole-figure analysis ($\beta$ scanning). Highly c-axia oriented Bi4Ti3O12 films were crystallized by heat-treatment at 700$^{\circ}$ and 75$0^{\circ}C$ from precursor films pyrolyzed at 50$0^{\circ}C$. The X-ray pole-figure analysis indicated that the $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have an epitaxial relationship with the MgO(100) substrates.

The green emitting phosphor, $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn$ thin film with spinel structure were deposited by rf magnetron sputtering. Thin film phosphors were heat-treated in nitrogen, vacuum and air atmosphere, respectively. The effects of the substrates, heat-treatment conditions and the sputtering parameters were investigated. The growing behavior and luminescent properties of thin films depend on the crystallinity of the substrates. The Ga/Zn atomic ratios and luminescent characteristics were dependent on the annealing conditions.
