This paper investigated a gate driver circuit with amorphous silicon for mobile TFT-LCD. In the conventional circuit, the fluctuation of the off-state voltage causes the fluctuation of gate line voltages in the panel and then image quality becomes worse. Newly designed gate driver circuit with dynamic switching inverter and carry out signal reduce the fluctuation of the off-state voltage because dynamic switching inverter is holding the off-state voltage and the delay of carry signal is reduced. The simulation results show that the proposed a-Si:H gate driver has low noise and high stability compared with the conventional one.

Gate and data drivers are essential for driving active matrix display. In this study, we integrate drivers with a-Si:H to develop a compact, better reliability and cost effective display. We design and fabricate drivers with conventional a-Si:H thin film transistors (TFTs). The output voltages are investigated according to the input voltage, temperature and operation time. Based on these studies, we propose here a new driver to prevent gate line from the floated state. For the external coupled voltage fluctuation, the proposed driver shows better stability.

A novel a-Si TFT integrated gate driver circuit which suppresses the threshold voltage shift due to prolonged positive gate bias to pull-down TFTs, is reported. Negative gate-to-drain bias is applied alternately to the pull-down TFTs to recover the threshold voltage shift. Consequently, the stability of the circuit has been improved considerably.

A novel integrated a-Si:H gate driver with high reliability has been designed and simulated. Since the a-Si:H TFT is easily degraded by gate bias stress, we should optimize the circuit considering the threshold voltage shift. The conventional circuit shows voltage drop at the input stage by threshold voltage of the TFT, however, the proposed circuit dose not shows voltage drop and keeps constant regardless of threshold voltage shift of the TFT.

산화물 박막트랜지스터를 이용하여 액정 디스플레이 패널에 내장할 수 있는 새로운 게이트 드라이버 회로를 설계하고 제작하였다. 산화물 박막트랜지스터는 문턱전압이 음의 값을 갖는 경우가 많기 때문에 본 회로에서는 음의 게이트 전압을 인가하여 트랜지스터를 끄는 방법을 적용하였다. 또한 세 개의 풀다운 트랜지스터를 병렬로 배치하고 번갈아 사용하므로 안정적인 동작이 가능하다. 제안한 회로는 트랜지스터의 문턱전압이 -3 V ~ +6 V인 범위에서 정상적으로 동작하는 것을 시뮬레이션을 통해서 확인하였으며, 실제로 유리 기판 상에 제작하여 안정적으로 동작하는 것을 검증하였다.

Integrated a-Si:H gate driver with high reliability has been designed and simulated. The proposed a-S:H gate driver has only one reset transistor under AC driving for P and output node. These reset transistors show much less degradation than those under DC driving. The simulation results show that the lifetime and response time are improved significantly compared with those of the prior circuit.

A novel a-Si TFT integrated gate driver circuit using multi-thread driving has been developed. The circuit consists of two independent shift registers alternating between the two modes, "wake" and "sleep". The degradation of the circuit is retarded because the bias stress is removed during the sleep mode. It has been successfully integrated in 14.1-in. XGA LCD Panel, showing enhanced stability.

Highly stable gate driver circuit using a-Si TFT has been developed. The circuit has dual-pull down structure, in which bias stress to the TFTs is relieved by alternating applied voltage. The circuit has been successfully integrated in 4-in. QVGA and 14-in. XGA TFT-LCD with a normal a-Si process, which are stable for over 2,000 hours at $60^{\circ}C$. The enhancement of stability of the circuit is attributed to retarded degradation of pull-down TFTs by AC driving.

We review our studies on the growth of microcrystalline silicon films by the standard PECVD technique. In situ spectroscopic ellipsometry studies allow the optimization of the complex film structure with respect to competing aspects of the growth process. Fine tuning the hydrogen flux, the ion energy, and the nature of the species contributing to deposition produces unique films with a fully crystallized interface with silicon nitride. These materials have been successfully incorporated in bottom gate TFTs which present mobility values in the range of 1 to 3 $cm^2/V.s$, and stable characteristics when submitted to a bias stress. The stability of these TFTs makes them suitable for driver applications in AMLCDs as well as pixel elements in OLED displays.
