Abstract
Large area liquid crystal display panels are very important for the fabrication of flat panel displays. However, multiplexing individual display lines limits the contrast of the LCD display because the individual pixels only remain on or off for a fraction of the frame cycle. This is especially severe in the case of high-definition. television (HDTV) where the number of scan lines is greatly increased. Active-matrix displays in which each pixel has its own driving circuitry which latches the state of the pixel during the entire frame cycle provides a solution to this problem. However, with conventional technology the size of active- matrix displays is limited by the size of the Si wafer required to make the driving transistors.
