چکیده

We developed flexible LC devices using coat-debond polyimide substrates with a low birefringence and etched post spacers, and clarified that flexible LCDs using post spacers with small spacer distance have a high flexibility without degradation of the image quality. This result ensured the feasibility of flexible LCDs using coat-debond method. key words: liquid crystal display, flexible display, coat-debond method, polyimide substrate, etched post spacer

Patterned photoresist spacers and photo-induced alignment coatings for liquid crystal waveplates and polarizers

The OMEGA laser system uses waveplates and polarizers to alter the polarization of the laser light. Both devices are formed using two glass substrates that contain alignment layers and are separated by vacuum-deposited thin-film spacers and filled with liquid crystals (LCs). Vacuum deposition of thin-film spacers is time-consuming and requires the use of expensive equipment. In this study, spac...

Ultra-Thin Deformable Silicon Substrates with Lateral Segmentation and Flexible Metal Interconnect

Our progress in developing technology modules for deformable single-crystalline-silicon electronics is presented in this contribution. Additional deformability/reliability is accomplished by modifications of the previously reported ultra-thin and flexible CIRCONFLEX technology (1). The flexibility is added in the last steps of the process flow using a combination of lateral segmentation and fle...

Controlling the Alignment of Polyimide for Liquid Crystal Devices

Liquid crystal (LC) devices have been popular for use in photonics products, such as displays for mobile phones, televisions and computers. As shown in Fig. 1, a typical LC device consists of a thin LC layer sandwiched between a pair of indium tin oxide (ITO) conducting glass substrates with a cell gap of few micrometers. Polyimide (PI) as a polymeric material characterized by its outstanding m...

Electromigration in Gold Films on Flexible Polyimide Substrates as a Self-healing Mechanism.

The study of electromigration (EM) in metallisations for flexible thin film systems has not been a major concern due to low applied current densities in today's flexible electronic devices. However, the trend towards smaller and more powerful devices demands increasing current densities for future applications, making EM a reliability matter. This work investigates EM in 50 nm Au thin films wit...

Pentacene organic thin-film transistors on flexible paper and glass substrates.

Pentacene-based organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) were fabricated on several types of flexible substrate: commercial photo paper, ultra-smooth specialty paper and ultra-thin (100 μM) flexible glass. The transistors were fabricated entirely through dry-step processing. The transconductance and field-effect mobility of OTFTs on photo paper reached values of ∼0.52 mS m(-1) and ∼ 0.1 cm(2) V (-...
