  • Patent number: 9469735
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a colorless transparent polyimide film having impregnated glass fabric, wherein the surface of the polyimide film substrate having impregnated glass fabric is flattened by two flattening steps using a roll-to-roll process, thereby solving problems with an increase in surface roughness of the polyimide substrate when manufacturing the polyimide film having impregnated glass fabric in order to enhance thermal and mechanical properties of a film for use in flexible display substrates and in cover windows for flat panel displays and mobile phones.

  • Patent number: 9417472
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a colorless transparent polyimide film having reinforced glass fabric for flexible displays, suitable for use in increasing optical transmittance of a polyimide substrate having reinforced glass fabric for flexible displays. This method enables the glass fabric and the colorless transparent polyimide film to be matched in refractive index when the glass fabric is reinforced in the colorless transparent polyimide film to enhance thermal and mechanical properties of a substrate for flexible displays, thus satisfying high optical transparency and optical transmittance of 85% or more, required of a substrate for flexible displays, and thereby the colorless transparent polyimide film having reinforced glass fabric can be used as a substrate for flexible displays.

  • Patent number: 8097297
    Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a flexible display substrate having reduced moisture permeability and reduced oxygen permeability, nanosized or microsized particles are uniformly dispersed in a molten polymer matrix. The molten polymer matrix are formed into plate-shaped molten polymer. The plate-shaped molten polymer is extruded between two extruding rollers to form a polymer or plastic sheet, to orient the nanosized or microsized particles in parallel with a surface of the polymer or plastic sheet. The polymer or plastic sheet is stretched between a glass transition temperature and a melting point to form a polymer or plastic film, exfoliating and orienting the nanosized or microsized particles further in parallel with a surface of the polymer or plastic film. The polymer or plastic film is coated with an organic film to flatten a surface of the flexible display substrate. Heat treatment is performed to cure the organic film.

  • Publication number: 20110159193
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of forming a flexible moisture and oxygen barrier thin film substrate for a flexible display and food packaging, the thin film being able to increase the life-spans of organic devices. The method includes the steps of: a) uniformly dispersing plate-shape nanometer-size or micrometer-size particles in polymer solution; b) casting the polymer solution dispersed with the nanometer-size or micrometer-size particles using the solution casting method and then removing the solvent from the cast polymer solution to form a plastic film; c) stretching the formed plastic film between the glass transition temperature and melting point to exfoliate the plate-shape nanometer-size or micrometer-size particles and to orient the exfoliated nanometer-size or micrometer-size particles; d) coating the stretched plastic film with an organic film to smooth the surface of the flexible substrate; and e) heat-treating the flexible substrate to cure the organic film.

  • Publication number: 20080211375
    Abstract: A field emitter includes a cathode, a field emission point part, a first anode, a charge storing plate, and a second anode. The field emission point part faces the first anode and is disposed at a first surface of and electrically connected to the cathode. The charge storing plate is disposed at a second surface, opposite the first surface, of the cathode. The second anode faces the second surface of the cathode. The charge storing plate is interposed between the second anode and the second surface of the cathode. Even if substantially the same electric field is formed in the field emitter as in a field emitter without the charge storing plate, the field emitter having the charge storing plate induces a more effective field emission current than the field emitter without the charge storing plate.
