    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an active matrix organic light emitting diode panel where a color shift does not occur at an edge of a display area. A color shift does not occur at the edge of the display area in an AMOLED panel proposed by an embodiment of the present disclosure to avoid color shift phenomenon at the edge of a display area. So red, green, and blue (R, G, and B) pixel units that are not arranged in a regular pattern at a non-standard pixel structure and a corresponding anode material layer are in a floating state. So the color shift phenomenon will not occur. When the pixel unit of the non-standard pixel structure receives an image display control signal, the color shift phenomenon may occur due to the inability to correspondingly display a corresponding image corresponding to the image display control signal to display the screen normally.

  • Patent number: 10984743
    Abstract: A novel semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device has a function of changing a pixel selection period in accordance with a distance from a driver circuit. Specifically, when the distance between a first pixel and the driver circuit is longer than the distance between a second pixel and the driver circuit, the pulse width of a selection signal supplied to the first pixel is set larger than the pulse width of a selection signal supplied to the second pixel. Accordingly, writing of image signals to pixels provided far from the driver circuit can be accurately performed while the selection period for pixels provided near the driver circuit is kept short.
