Highly stable thin-film transistor (TFT) pixel employing both low temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) and amorphous silicon (a-Si) for active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) is discussed. ELA (excimer laser annealing) LTPS-TFT pixel should compensate $I_{OLED}$ variation caused by the non-uniformity of LTPS-TFT due to the fluctuation of excimer laser energy and amorphous silicon TFT pixel is desired to suppress the decrease of $I_{OLED}$ induced by the degradation of a-Si TFT. We discuss various compensation schemes of both LTPS and a-Si TFT employing the voltage and the current programming.

A novel current-type data driver for active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) is proposed for current uniformity enhancement among its output channels. New architecture is composed of shadow DACs that precharge output stages, a single-real DAC that correct the output level to a real target current level and output stages that operate in 3 states of sampling, correcting and driving. Simulation results show that the proposed driving method and circuits improve the current uniformity among output channels of a current-type driver IC.

We propose a novel pixel structure using bootstrapped voltage programming for amorphoussilicon TFT backplane of AM-OLED (Active Matrix-Organic Light Emitting Diode) displays. The proposed structure is composed of two TFTs and one capacitor. It operates at low drive voltage ($0{\sim}5V$) which can reduce power consumption comparing with the conventional pixel circuit structure using same OLED material. Also, it can easily control dark level and use commercial mobile LCD ICs. In this paper, we describe the operating principle and the characteristics of the proposed pixel structure and verify the performance by SPICE simulation comparing with the conventional pixel structure.

We propose a new pixel design for active matrix organic light emitting diode (AM-OLED) displays using hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin-film transistors (a-Si:H TFTs). The pixel circuit is composed of five TFTs and one capacitor, and employs only one additional control signal line. It is verified by SPICE simulation results that the proposed pixel compensates the threshold voltage shift of the a-Si:H TFTs and OLED.

Depth sensitivity is considered one of the factors influencing 3D displays the most. In this paper, the perceptual 3D depth was quantitatively measured to compare the depth difference among the display devices. No difference was found in the typical display performance among the devices, but the subjective evaluation of the depth sensitivity where the disparity was varied showed that the organic light emitting diode (OLED) had the highest performance, mainly due to its almost 0% crosstalk, one of the features of OLED. Crosstalk is a form of image superposition that greatly affects the depth sensitivity. The experiment results showed that the quantitative depth sensitivity varies due to geometric factors such as disparity, viewing distance, and subjective sensitivity, depending on the display image characteristics, such as crosstalk and contrast.

Flexible displays such as plastic-based liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDDs) have been researched and developed at KETI since 1997. The plastic film substrate is very weak to heat and pressure compared to glass substrate, that its fabrication process is limited to 110$^{\circ}C$ and low pressure. The ITO films were deposited on the bare plastic film substrate by rf-magnetron sputtering. Moreover, in order to maintain uniform cell gap and pressure on the plastic film substrate, we utilized newly-invented jig and fabrication process. Electro-optical characteristics were better than or equivalent to those of typical glass LCDs though it is thinner, lighter-weight, and more robust than glass LCDs.

Now a days, many different kinds of display technologies such as Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), and Liquid Crystal On Silicon (LCOS) are designed. And these display technologies will be used in many application products like High Definition Televisions (HDTVs) or mobile devices. In this paper, pattern generation circuit for display test is proposed. The proposed circuit will be embedded in the control circuit of display chip. Two differenct kinds of patterns is generated by the circuit. One is block pattern for color test, and the other is line pattern for pixel test. The shape of test pattern is determined by the values of registers in pattern generation circuit. The circuit is designed using Verilog HDL RTL code.

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%.

본 연구에서는 캐소드 방향으로 발광하는 Top emission 소자를 설계 제작하였다. 이를 위하여 반투명한 금속 박막을 제작하여 전기적 특성과 광학적 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 이를 바탕으로 제작한 Top emission 소자를 bottom emission 소자와 비교하였을 때 구동 전압은 다소 높았으며 색좌표 및 스펙트럼이 이동하였는데 이동 정도와 경향성은 파장에 따라 다르게 나타났다

광물질로 인광물질을 사용한 유기발광다이오드(Organic Light Emitting Diode, OLED)는 재결합에 의해 형성된 여기자를 발광에 모두 이용할 수 있기 때문에 내부 양자효율이 100%로 알려져 있다. 하지만 유기층에서 발생된 빛이 소비자에게 전달되기까지의 경로에서 발생되는 wave guiding effect로 인해, 발생된 빛의 20%만이 전달된다. 특히 bottom emission type의 OLED에서 glass와 air사이의 굴절률이 달라 발생되는 전반사에 의해 손실되는 빛의 양은 35%에 달한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 glass와 air사이의 전반사를 줄이고 광추출을 위해 습식 방법으로 hemisphere type의 ZnS를 제작하였다. 제작된 ZnS는 직경 200nm까지 성장하였으며, 이렇게 제작된 ZnS nano lens가 적용된 OLED device에서 휘도가 20% 이상 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.
