Abstract:
A display device includes a plurality of scanning lines, a plurality of signal lines, current-driven elements provided corresponding to portion where the scanning lines and the signal lines cross one another, and performs a display operating in response to the mount of a driving current supplied to the current-driven elements. The amount of tho driving current is defined by the value of the driving current and the length of a period in which the driving current, which is periodically repeated, is supplied to the current-driven elements. This definition of the amount of the driving current can realize accurate gray scale control in a minute current region and a reduction in power consumption of the display device.
Abstract:
To provide a film forming method and a film forming system, which efficiently use materials and forming a high-quality organic thin film, and an electronic device and an electronic apparatus that are manufactured using the method and the device, an organic thin film-forming system includes a solution supplying unit, a gas supplying unit, a soft ionizing unit, and an ion separating unit, a deflecting unit, and a film-forming unit. After organic materials to be converted in film become minute liquid droplets in the soft ionizing unit and the liquid droplets are ionized or charged, the liquid droplets are vaporized and thus pseudo-molecular ions of a vapor state are created. In the ion separating unit, an organic material pseudo-molecular ion is separated from the pseudo-molecular ions. A predetermined stick voltage is applied to a plurality of electrodes formed on a substrate of an electronic device forming the organic thin film using a circuit previously formed on the substrate and thus the organic material pseudo-molecular ion is selectively stuck to a predetermined electrode.

By providing a charge storage capacitor between the source electrode and the gate electrode of a driving transistor which is between power sources, the electro-optical device can allow the driving transistor to control a driving current, even when an electro-optical element is connected to the source side of the driving transistor. In addition, driving data can be stored in the charge storage capacitor by applying a predetermined voltage to the source electrode of the driving transistor.
