Abstract:
A source drive integrated circuit includes a source driving circuit, output buffers, and voltage protection circuits. The source driving circuit generates data voltages according to a source timing control signal and digital video data. The output buffers output the data voltages from the source driving circuit to output terminals. The voltage protection circuits are connected between the output buffers and the output terminals. A voltage supplied to at least one of the voltage protection circuits is different from a voltage supplied to remaining ones of the voltage protection circuits.
Abstract:
A deposition apparatus comprises a chamber, a deposition material supplier positioned in the chamber and configured to contain and supply a deposition material, a substrate holder disposed in the chamber and configured to hold a substrate such that a major surface of the substrate faces the deposition material supplier; and a mask retainer disposed in the chamber and configured to retain a mask disposed over the major surface of the substrate. The mask retainer comprises a base, and a plurality of magnets coupled to the base, at least one of the plurality of magnets being movable with respect to the base, the plurality of magnets being configured to apply magnetic force to the mask such that the mask is fixed to the substrate without substantial movement of the mask with respect to the substrate during deposition of the deposition material.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a fine metal mask is provided. The method of manufacturing a fine metal mask includes: forming a first recessed portion in a first surface of a base member; forming an edge portion of the first recessed portion in a uniform depth; forming a second recessed portion in a second surface of the base member, the second surface being opposite to the first surface; and communicating the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion of the base member. A fine metal mask produced by the inventive method is also described and may be used to fabricate OLEDs having better resolution and an increased aperture ratio in comparison with OLEDs prepared using the fine metal masks of the conventional art.
Abstract:
A flexible display module includes a panel having a display unit thereon, and a built-in battery which supplies an internal power source to the panel, for driving the display unit.
