Abstract

High resolution 2.1” QVGA LTPS LCD (190ppi) having high aperture ratio of 65% could be successfully developed using state-of-the-art SLS technology and active/gate storage structure. Cost effective P-MOS 6-Mask structure was used. Full gate and transmission gate circuits are integrated in the panel. The high aperture ratio was obtained by using active/gate capacitance structure, which can reduce storage capacitance area. The aperture ratio was increased to 65% from 49% of conventional gate/data capacitance structure. The brightness was increased from 180cd to 270cd without any degradation of optical properties such as contrast ratio, flicker or crosstalk.
