A new flexible TFT backplane structure with improved mechanical reliability is proposed. Amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) thin film transistors based on this structure have been fabricated on a polyimide substrate, and the resultant mechanical durability has been evaluated in a cyclic bending test. The panel can withstand 10,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of 5 mm without any noticeable TFT degradation. After 10K bending cycles, the change of threshold voltage, mobility, sub-threshold slope, and gate leakage current were only -0.22V, -0.13$cm^2$/V-s, -0.05V/decade, and $-3.05{\times}10^{-13}A$, respectively.

a-IGZO is an attractive material to make an AMOLED device with uniform TFT properties for use in a large size display. However, this material shows TFT properties that are very sensitive to water or hydrogen. Therefore, it is essential to control these critical factors during fabrication of the backplane in order to improve the TFT performance. In this paper, we report the effect of passivation layer properties on the performance of the oxide TFTs.

The Improved stability of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) containing lithium-quinolate (Liq) as the ETL doping material is investigated. The lifetime could be improved by threefold using the Liq-doped ETL structure. The improvement was attributed to the Liq-doped ETL, which improved hole-electron balance and has a good electrical stability. Additionally, when the Liq doped device was combined with an Mg/Al cathode, the OLED produced a longer lifetime than other device.

The life time of AMOLED displays has been dependent on OLED materials up to this point. In particular, image sticking (burn-in) has been one of the most critical issues for AMOLEDs. This paper proposes image sticking compensation AMOLED pixel circuits to address the problem without requiring process or material improvements to the OLED itself. We verified the performance of those circuits by simulation and actual panel implementation.

Highly stable bottom gate thin film transistors(TFTs) with a zinc indium tin oxide(Zn-In-Sn-O:ZITO) channel layer have been fabricated by rf-magnetron co-sputtering using a indium tin oxide(ITO:90/10), a tin oxide and a zinc oxide targets. The ZITO TFT (W/L=$40{\mu}m/20{\mu}m$) has a mobility of 24.6 $cm^2$/V.s, a subthreshold swing of 0.12V/dec., a turn-on voltage of -0.4V and an on/off ratio of >$10^9$. When gate field of $1.8{\times}10^5$ V/cm was applied with source-drain current of $3{\mu}A$ at $60^{\circ}C$, the threshold voltage shift was ~0.18 V after 135 hours. We fabricated AM-OLED driven by highly stable bottom gate Zn-In-Sn-O TFT array.

In this paper, we propose a new method for measuring image sticking of an OLED display using a human visual test. We determined that the perceptual image sticking threshold is 2% of luminance difference at 200 nits and 1% at 100 nits, respectively. Color shift must also be considered when evaluating image sticking, as a ${\Delta}$(u', v') shift of just over 0.002 can be recognized regardless of background brightness. Perception of image sticking is affected by the background level, test pattern, and ambient illumination conditions. The evaluation standard must consider both luminance variation and color shift simultaneously.

With the increasing demand for a better FPD image quality, better evaluation metrics and advanced display quality measurement methods are required to meet these needs. There are many measurement methods for evaluating the viewing angle of various display devices, but these methods, which include luminance drop, color shift, and contrast ratio decrease, are imperfect considering that human perception does not completely correlate to them. In this paper, a new method of measuring the perceptual angle of FPDs is proposed, considering human visual perception, which uses the color space of the color appearance model.

With increasing demand for better FPD image quality, better evaluation metrics and advanced display quality measurement methods are required to meet these needs. There are many measurement methods to evaluate viewing angle of the various different display devices. However, these methods, which include luminance drop, color shift, and contrast ratio decrease, are imperfect considering that human perception does not completely correlate to these methods. In this paper, we propose a new method for measuring perceptual angle of FPDs considering human visual perception, which uses color space of the color appearance model.

Since Samsung SDI and Sony started mass production of AM-OLED display for mobile/TV applications, OLED technology has emerged as leading candidate among the many technologies under development for next generation Flat panel displays. P-OLED (Polymer Organic Lighting Emitting Diode) technology, a class of OLED, is gathering momentum towards commercialization. P-OLED technology has made tremendous progress in terms of display performance (including life time, efficiency and color gamut) and in the maturity of ink jet printing process and equipment. In order to get into the mobile/TV application market successfully, P-OLED display technology must meet the following display makers' requirements: (1) P-OLED Display Performance in terms of lifetime, efficiency, and color coordinates, (2) Low Cost Manufacturing Technology such as "Solution Processable Printing Technology". P-OLED technology has already overcome many of the hurdles to mass manufacturing. In this paper, the latest developments in ink jet printing technology, including P-OLED material performance, is discussed.
