Abstract:
Different types of thin film transistors are disposed on the same flexible substrate and an organic light emitting display using the same includes a display area and a non-display area; a first buffer layer over an entire surface of the flexible substrate; a driving transistor on the buffer layer in the display area, the driving transistor including a polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) layer, a first gate electrode, a first source electrode, and a first drain electrode; a capacitor electrode on the first source electrode of the driving transistor and forming a storage capacitor together with the first source electrode; a switching transistor in the display area to be spaced apart from the driving transistor; and a dummy electrode on the switching transistor, the dummy electrode formed of the same material as the capacitor electrode, and disposed on the same plane as the capacitor.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a substrate having a first substrate, a second substrate, and an inorganic insulating layer between the first substrate and the second substrate. A first buffer layer is on the substrate, wherein the first buffer layer includes n+1 layers, and ‘n’ is 0 or an even number. A first thin film transistor, a second thin film transistor, and a storage capacitor are each on the first buffer layer. The first thin film transistor includes a first active layer formed of a low temperature poly silicon material. The second thin film transistor includes a second active layer formed of an oxide semiconductor material. The storage capacitor includes a first capacitor electrode and a second capacitor electrode.
