  • Publication number: 20240135876
    Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including pixels in one pixel column and a gate driver for sequentially providing scan signals to the pixels. Each of the pixels includes a light emitting element, a first transistor for controlling a current amount of driving current flowing through the light emitting element and a second transistor for transferring a data signal to a gate electrode of the first transistor in response to a corresponding scan signal among the scan signals. A first pixel among the pixels is electrically connected to a first data line, and a second pixel adjacent to the first pixel among the pixels is electrically connected to a second data line different from the first data line. A second scan signal provided to the second pixel partially overlaps with a first scan signal provided to the first pixel.

  • Patent number: 10732126
    Abstract: A method of inspecting defects on a transparent substrate may include: selecting a gradient of an illumination optical system so that light incident on the transparent substrate has a first angle; selecting a gradient of a detection optical system so that an optical axis of the detection optical system located over the transparent substrate has a second angle, which is equal to or less than the first angle; adjusting a position of at least one of the illumination optical system, the transparent substrate, and the detection optical system so that a field-of-view of the detection optical system covers a first region where the light meets a first surface of the transparent substrate and does not cover a second region where light meets a second surface of the transparent substrate, the second surface being opposite to the first surface; illuminating the transparent substrate; and detecting light scattered from the transparent substrate.
