AbstractThe performance of advanced flat panel displays is intrinsically linked to critical properties of the substrate material. In the manufacture of active-matrix liquid crystal displays (AMLCDs) and some emissive displays, there are certain process steps that require extreme conditions such as strong chemical washes and temperatures in excess of 600°C. As a result, the glass substrate used in these displays must be able to withstand these environments without degradation of its properties. It has become apparent that the flat panel display (FPD) manufacturers will benefit from substrates with improved acid durability, higher temperature capability, and thermal expansion coefficients consistent with other display materials.This paper focuses on one of the less-understood features of the glass substrate: the expansion characteristics as a function of temperature. Thermal expansion is important as it affects the compatibility of the glass with display materials, which, in the case of AMLCDs and some silicon-microtip field emission displays (FED), require an expansion close to that of silicon. In addition, thermal breakage during processing is directly proportional to the expansion coefficient.This study focused on the thermal expansion characteristics of two different FPD substrate glasses. The first one is code 7059, manufactured by Corning Incorporated and currently the standard in AMLCDs. A new substrate composition, Corning code 1737, with enhanced durability, temperature capability, and expansion tuned to the AMLCD applications will also be discussed.

Color Control

A system for inspecting flat panel displays (FPDs) acquires scanning images using multiline charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras and industrial machine vision. Optical filters are currently installed in front of these inspection systems to obtain high-quality images. However, the combination of optical filters required is determined manually and by using empirical methods; this is referred to as passive color control. In this study, active color control is proposed for inspecting FPDs. This inspection scheme requires the scanning of images, which is achieved using a mixed color light source and a mixing algorithm. The light source utilizes high-power light emitting diodes (LEDs) of multiple colors and a communication port to dim their level. Mixed light illuminates an active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) panel after passing through a beam expander and after being shaped into a line beam. The image quality is then evaluated using the Tenenbaum gradient after intensity calibration of the scanning images. The dimming levels are determined using the simplex search method which maximizes the image quality. The color of the light was varied after every scan of an AMOLED panel, and the variation was iterated until the image quality approached a local maximization. The number of scans performed was less than 225, while the number of dimming level combinations was 20484. The proposed method can reduce manual tasks in setting-up inspection machines, and hence is useful for the inspection machines in FPD processes.
