  • Publication number: 20230197012
    Abstract: Each gate stage of a gate driver may be implemented to operate based on a clock, a set signal, and a reset signal without a driving power, and thus, may not be connected to the driving power. Accordingly, because a driving power line is omitted, a mount area of the gate driver may be reduced, and thus, a narrow bezel may be easily implemented. Each gate stage may be implemented based on the clock without the driving power, and thus, a configuration thereof may be simplified. In this case, because each gate stage includes a leakage current blocker, even when the gate stage is manufactured based on an oxide transistor having a depletion characteristic, the operation stability thereof may be secured.

  • Patent number: 5700699
    Abstract: A method for fabricating the polycrystal silicon TFT under a low temperature which has an improved electron mobility, comprises the steps of forming an oxide film on a substrate, depositing a polycrystal silicon on the oxide film and patterning the polycrystal silicon so that source and drain regions and a channel region remain, growing a gate insulating layer on the patterned polycrystal silicon by ECR plasma thermal oxidation, depositing a material for a gate on the whole surface and removing the material and the gate insulating layer in portions except for a gate region to form the gate, and performing ion implantation on the exposed areas of the polycrystal silicon to form the source and drain regions.
