Key Products/TechnologiesKeyProducts/Technologies
**Optical Films**: The company offers a diverse product line of functional films, including prism films, high-hardness hard-coating films, optical protective films, antistatic agents, and barrier films. It possesses the capability to produce differentiated products by applying its proprietary coating solution formulation technology and customized coating techniques tailored to the characteristics of film substrates. Prism sheets are core components that enhance display brightness by concentrating light in a vertical direction. Diffuser sheets play a role in evenly distributing light across the LCD front surface, increasing brightness and concealing fine patterns.**OpticalFilms**:Thecompanyoffersadiverseproductlineoffunctionalfilms,includingprismfilms,high-hardnesshard-coatingfilms,opticalprotectivefilms,antistaticagents,andbarrierfilms.Itpossessesthecapabilitytoproducedifferentiatedproductsbyapplyingitsproprietarycoatingsolutionformulationtechnologyandcustomizedcoatingtechniquestailoredtothecharacteristicsoffilmsubstrates.Prismsheetsarecorecomponentsthatenhancedisplaybrightnessbyconcentratinglightinaverticaldirection.DiffusersheetsplayaroleinevenlydistributinglightacrosstheLCDfrontsurface,increasingbrightnessandconcealingfinepatterns.
**Light Guide Plates (LGPs)**: KOYJ holds technology to maximize light efficiency by collecting light from the side light source of the backlight unit (BLU) and directing it to the front. It has the capability to implement ultra-slim LGPs with a thickness of 0.3T and form fine patterns at a 40㎛ level. The company utilizes a thermal transfer method for simultaneous double-sided pattern coating, differentiating itself from conventional printing and laser cutting methods. This technology enhances market responsiveness through faster production speeds and flexible pattern design capabilities.**LightGuidePlates(LGPs)**:KOYJholdstechnologytomaximizelightefficiencybycollectinglightfromthesidelightsourceofthebacklightunit(BLU)anddirectingittothefront.Ithasthecapabilitytoimplementultra-slimLGPswithathicknessof0.3Tandformfinepatternsata40㎛level.Thecompanyutilizesathermaltransfermethodforsimultaneousdouble-sidedpatterncoating,differentiatingitselffromconventionalprintingandlasercuttingmethods.Thistechnologyenhancesmarketresponsivenessthroughfasterproductionspeedsandflexiblepatterndesigncapabilities.
**Semiconductor Materials**: The company has developed Self-Crosslinking SOC (Spin-On Carbon) precursor technology, essential for 3D NAND and high-stacking processes in semiconductors. This technology fundamentally resolves issues of gas generation and impurities during high-temperature processes, achieving an ultra-high purity environment. It demonstrates approximately 95% etching resistance compared to conventional ACL (Amorphous Carbon Layer) and less than 2.5% weight loss during high-temperature bake processes above 400℃. Maintaining coating uniformity of less than 1% across the entire wafer surface ensures stable performance in contact hole and gap-fill processes.**SemiconductorMaterials**:ThecompanyhasdevelopedSelf-CrosslinkingSOC(Spin-OnCarbon)precursortechnology,essentialfor3DNANDandhigh-stackingprocessesinsemiconductors.Thistechnologyfundamentallyresolvesissuesofgasgenerationandimpuritiesduringhigh-temperatureprocesses,achievinganultra-highpurityenvironment.Itdemonstratesapproximately95%etchingresistancecomparedtoconventionalACL(AmorphousCarbonLayer)andlessthan2.5%weightlossduringhigh-temperaturebakeprocessesabove400℃.Maintainingcoatinguniformityoflessthan1%acrosstheentirewafersurfaceensuresstableperformanceincontactholeandgap-fillprocesses.
