Active-matrix field emission display (AMFED) based on carbon nanotube (CNT) emitter and amorphous silicon thin-film transistor (a-Si TFT) is reviewed. The AMFED pixels consisted of a high-voltage a-Si TFT and mesh-gated CNT emitters. The developed AMFED panel showed a high performance with a driving voltage of below 15 V. The low-cost and large-area AMFED approach with a metal mesh technology will be discussed.

A 5.8-inch wide-QQVGA flexible full-color active-matrix OLED display was fabricated on a plastic substrate. Low-voltage-operation organic TFTs and high-efficiency phosphorescent OLEDs were used as the backplane and emissive pixels, respectively. The fabricated display clearly showed color moving images when the driving voltage was below 15 V.

For high quality displays, analog responding liquid crystals with spontaneous polarization ($P_{s}$) need to be coupled with active matrix driving schemes. We have characterized the half-V-shaped switching ferroelectric liquid crystal mode (half-V FLC mode) in terms of dielectiric and voltage holding properties. Research on these switching properties provided us with the technology for switching half-V FLC mode FLCs by using amorphous silicon TFTs.

Polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistor (TFT) technology is emerging as a key technology for active matrix liquid crystal displays (AMLCD), allowing the integration of both active matrix and driving circuit on the same substrate (normally glass). As high temperature process is not used for glass substrate because of the low softening points below 450$^{\circ}C$. However, high temperature process is required for getting high crystallization volume fraction (i.e. crystallinity). A poly-Si thin film transistor has been fabricated to investigate the effect of high temperature process on the molybdenum (Mo) substrate. Improve of the crystallinity over 75% has been noticed. The properties of structural and electrical at high temperature poly-Si thin film transistor on Mo substrate have been also analyzed using a sputtering method

A new pixel circuit for Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diodes (AMOLEDs), based on the polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (Poly-Si TFTs), was proposed and verified by SMART SPICE simulation. One driving and six switching TFTs and one storage capacitor were used to improve display image uniformity without any additional control signal line. The proposed pixel circuit compensates an inevitable threshold voltage variation of Poly-Si TFTs and also compensates the degradation of OLED at low power supply voltage($V_{DD}$). The simulation results show that the proposed pixel circuit successfully compensates the variation of OLED driving current within 0.8% compared with 20% of the conventional pixel circuit.

In recent years, attempts have been made to greatly improve the display quality of active-matrix liquid crystal display devices, and many techniques have been proposed to solve such problems as gate signal delay, feed-through voltage and image sticking[1-3]. To improve these problems which are caused by the feed-through voltage, we have evaluated new driving methods to reduce the feed-through voltage. Two level gate-pulse was used for the gate driving of the cst-on-common structure pixels. These gate driving methods offer better feed-through characteristics than conventional simple gate pulse. Optimized step signal will compensate by step pulse time and voltage. The evaluation of the suggested driving methods were performed by using a TFT-LCD array simulator PDAST which can simulate the gate, data and pixel voltages of a certain pixel at any time and at any location on a TFT array. The effect of the new driving method was effectively analyzed.

This paper designed a voltage feedback driving circuit to compensate for the characteristic deviation of the Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode driving Thin Film Transistor. This paper describes a stable and fast circuit by applying charge sharing and polar stabilization methods. A 12-inch Organic Light Emitting Diode with a Double Wide Ultra eXtended Graphics Array resolution creates a screen distortion problem for line parasitism, and charge sharing and polar stabilization structures were applied to solve the problem. By applying Charge Sharing, all data lines are shorted at the same time and quickly positioned as the average voltage to advance the compensated change time of the gate voltage in the next operation period. A buffer circuit and a current pass circuit were added to lower the Amplifier resistance connected to the line as a polar stabilization method. The advantage of suppressing the Ringing of the driving Thin Film Transistor can be obtained by increasing the stability. As a result, a circuit was designed to supply a stable current to the Organic Light Emitting Diode even if the characteristic deviation of the driving Thin Film Transistor occurs.

This paper demonstrates a new driving scheme that allows reducing the supply voltage of data drivers for low-power active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays. The proposed technique drives down the data voltage range by 50%, which subsequently diminishes in the peak power consumption of data drivers at the full white pattern by 75%. Because the gate voltage of a driving thin film transistor covers the same range as a conventional driving scheme by means of a level-shifting scheme, the low-data supply scheme achieves the equivalent dynamic range of OLED currents. The average power consumption of data drivers is reduced by 60% over 24 test images, and power consumption is kept below 25%.

A new pixel driving method for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) flat-panel display (FPD) is proposed. The new charge-pump passive-matrix pixel driver consists only of a storage capacitance and a rectifying diode, and no thin-film transistor (TFT) is needed. The new driver not only supplies a constant current to the OLED throughout the whole period of panel scanning like an active-matrix driver, but also provides a highly linear gray-scale control through a pure digital manner.

Bottom gate thin film transistors (TFTs) with microcrystalline and amorphous Si (a-Si) double active layers (DAL) were fabricated. Since the process of DAL TFTs can use that of conventional a-Si TFTs, these DAL TFT process has advantages, such as low cost, large substrate, and mass production capacity. In order to analyze the degradation characteristics in saturation region for driving TFTs of active matrix organic light emitting diode, three different dynamic stresses were applied to DAL TFTs and a-Si TFTs. The threshold voltage shift of DAL TFTs and a-Si TFTs during 10,000 second stress is 0.3V and 2V, respectively. DAL TFTs were more reliable than a-Si TFTs.
