    摘要: A self-aligned TFT array for liquid crystal display devices and a method of manufacturing the array are disclosed. A protective insulating layer on a semiconductor layer is exactly aligned with a gate electrode. A self-alignment method is used for patterning the protective insulating layer and an impurity-doped semiconductor layer on the semiconductor layer. No lift-off process is necessary.

    摘要: An active matrix circuit for liquid crystal displays includes a plurality of liquid crystal pixels arranged in a matrix, a plurality of scanning lines supplied with selection pulses to select rows of the pixel matrix, a plurality of signal lines supplied with signal voltages which are supplied to the pixels in a selected row, and a plurality of switching elements responsive to the respective selection pulses for supplying the signal voltages to the respective pixels. Each pixel is controlled by two switching elements responsive to selection pulses supplied adjaent to two scanning lines. If one of the two switching elements is defective due to a manufacturing process, it is later electrically isolated from the circuit. The other one can control the respective pixel to operate normally. The switching element may be a transistor or a non-linear device.

    摘要: An improved arrangement of a liquid crystal display device is provided in which the redundancy of a known but unwanted TFT (thin film transistor) defect is suppressed so that the yield per finished liquid crystal display device product can be increased without deterioration in the picture quality. Each pixel of the liquid crystal display device arranged at an intersection of one of scanning lines and one of signal lines is provided with two or three TFTs and also, a storage capacitor which is formed of a portion of a gate insulating layer and is sandwiched between its electrode and a preceding scanning line in the previous row using no extra masking procedure. The source, drain and gate electrodes of both the first and third TFTs are respectively coupled to the same signal line, the electrode of the same pixel and the adjacent scanning lines. The gate, source and drain electrodes of the second TFT are respectively coupled to the same scanning line to which the gate electrode of the first TFT is coupled, the electrode of the same pixel and the electrode of a succeeding pixel provided on the opposite side of the scanning line with respect to the same pixel. The arrangement also has a scanning driver circuit capable of activating two scanning lines at the same time for a sequential one-by-one scanning operation, whereby no fault in a reproduced image will be perceived in spite of the presence of a defective TFT.

    摘要: A fill material 201 enclosed in an arc tube 201 with an inner diameter of 10.8 mm includes ScI3, argon, and mercury. A distance between electrodes 202 is set at 2.2 mm, and a distance between the inner wall of the arc tube 201 and the electrodes 202 is set at approximately 5.4 mm, which is approximately twice the distance between the electrodes 202. The lamp of the present invention is capable of forming thin arc and thereby achieving high luminance since only the metallic elements having an ionization potential of 6 eV or higher is contained in the fill material 207. The restriction of the short distance between the electrodes serves to stabilize arc. Scandium in the fill material serves to achieve a good color reproduction characteristic.

    摘要: In a conventional electrodeless discharge lamp, a large amount of magnetic field leaks from at light-transparent envelope, and the efficiency of conversion from electric power to light energy is low. In a electrodeless discharge lamp in which light-emitting gases in a light-transparent envelope are excited with a magnetic field generated from a coil, end portions of a magnetic material included in the coil are substantially axially disposed in the light-transparent envelope. As a result, the magnetic flux which leaks outside the light-transparent envelope is decreased so the density of the magnetic flux in the envelope is increased and the efficiency of the lamp is improved.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for operating a high pressure discharge lamp is disclosed. Oscillation in the discharge arc periphery, a problem that occurs with high frequency operation, is eliminated. A high pressure discharge lamp is operated by applying thereto a dc or rectangular wave current to which is superposed an ac component shaped by a high frequency ripple signal that has been amplitude modulated by a modulation signal for inducing instantaneous fluctuations in the power supply input to both ends of the arc gap. The ripple level is thereby temporally varied, and stable operating is possible even exceeding the ripple level at which oscillation in the arc periphery begins.
