    摘要: A method of fabricating a TFT and IPS with reduced masking operations includes a substrate, a gate, a layer of gate dielectric on the gate and surrounding substrate surface and a semiconducting metal oxide on the gate dielectric. A channel protection layer overlies the gate to define a channel area in the semiconducting metal oxide. A S/D metal layer is patterned on the channel protection layer and a portion of the exposed semiconducting metal oxide to define an IPS area. An organic dielectric material is patterned on the S/D terminals and at an opposed side of the IPS area. The S/D metal is etched to expose the semiconducting metal oxide defining a first IPS electrode. A passivation layer covers the first electrode and a layer of transparent conductive material is patterned on the passivation layer to define a second IPS electrode overlying the first electrode.

    摘要: A method of forming ohmic source/drain contacts in a metal oxide semiconductor thin film transistor includes providing a gate, a gate dielectric, a high carrier concentration metal oxide semiconductor active layer with a band gap and spaced apart source/drain metal contacts in a thin film transistor configuration. The spaced apart source/drain metal contacts define a channel region in the active layer. An oxidizing ambient is provided adjacent the channel region and the gate and the channel region are heated in the oxidizing ambient to reduce the carrier concentration in the channel area. Alternatively or in addition each of the source/drain contacts includes a very thin layer of low work function metal positioned on the metal oxide semiconductor active layer and a barrier layer of high work function metal is positioned on the low work function metal.

    摘要: A method of driving a display device includes providing an array of pixels including rows and columns of pixels, each pixel including a switching/driving transistor circuit and at least one light emitting device. Each row of pixels has a scan line and each column of pixels has a data line. The method further includes defining a frame period during which each pixel in the array of pixels is addressed and dividing the frame period into a write subframe, a display subframe, and a rest subframe. A scan pulse is supplied to each scan line, a data signal to each data line and the light emitting devices are disabled during the write subframe. The light emitting devices are enabled during the display subframe and the switching/driving transistor circuits are disabled. A rest pulse is supplied to all scan lines and the light emitting devices are disabled during the rest subframe.

    摘要: An active matrix organic light emitting display includes a plurality of pixels with each pixel including at least one organic light emitting diode circuit. Each diode circuit producing a predetermined amount of light lm in response to power W applied to the circuit and including n organic light emitting diodes cascaded in series so as to increase voltage dropped across the cascaded diodes by the factor of n, where n is an integer greater than one. Each diode of the n organic light emitting diodes produces approximately 1/n of the predetermined amount of light lm so as to reduce current flowing in the diodes by 1/n. The organic light emitting diode circuit of each pixel includes a thin film transistor current driver with the cascaded diodes connected in the source/drain circuit so the current driver provides the current flowing in the diodes.

    摘要: Reconfigurable color signage includes an array of light valves each having memory. An active matrix including a plurality of conductive select and data lines is positioned on one side of the array. Each light valve is electrically coupled to be separately addressable by a unique combination of select and data line. The active matrix has a write mode in which signals are supplied to each light valve to provide a selected light transmittance and a display mode in which the memory of each light valve retains the selected transmittance after the signals of the write mode have been removed. A backlight is positioned to direct light in a light path through the array and a color filter is positioned in the light path to define a plurality of pixels, including one red, green, and blue filter for each pixel, and each positioned to be associated with a separate light valve.
