Abstract

Provided are a nano semiconductor sheet, a thin film transistor (TFT) using the nano semiconductor sheet, and a flat panel display using nano semiconductor sheet. The nano semiconductor sheet has excellent characteristics, can be manufactured at room temperature, and has good flexibility. The nano semiconductor sheet includes: a first film and a second film disposed on at least one side of or inside of the first film, and includes a plurality of nano particles arranged substantially in parallel to each other. In addition, provided are a method of manufacturing a nano semiconductor sheet and methods of manufacturing a TFT and a flat panel display using the nano semiconductor sheet. The method of manufacturing a nano semiconductor sheet, includes: forming first polymer micro-fibers having a plurality of nano particles arranged substantially in parallel; preparing a first film; and arranging a plurality of the first micro-fibers on at least one side of or inside of the first film.

Claims (11)

1. A semiconductor sheet, comprising:

a plurality of microfibers extending generally in a direction, the microfibers containing nanoparticles and a polymer therein, wherein at least some of the plurality of microfibers contacts another plurality of microfibers.

2. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the nanoparticles comprise one or more selected from the group consisting of nano wires, nano rods, and nano ribbons.

3. The sheet of claim 1 , further comprising another plurality of microfibers extending in another direction.

4. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of microfibers has a width from about 50 nm and about 5,000 nm.

5. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the microfibers has a gap with a neighboring one of the microfibers, and wherein a gap is between about 0 μm and about 5 μm.

6. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the microfibers contacts a neighboring one of the microfibers.

7. The sheet of claim 3 , wherein the other direction is substantially perpendicular to the direction.

8. The sheet of claim 3 , wherein the other plurality of microfibers comprises nanoparticles.

9. The sheet of claim 3 , wherein the other plurality of microfibers comprises substantially no nanoparticles.

10. The sheet of claim 3 , wherein at least part of the other plurality of microfibers is interwoven with at least part of the plurality of microfibers.
