Abstract: A display may include an array of pixels. A pixel can include an organic light-emitting diode, up to three thin-film transistors, and up to two capacitors. The pixel can include a drive transistor, an emission transistor, and a select transistor. The select transistor can be used to apply a reference voltage to the gate of the drive transistor during a global reset phase and during a global threshold voltage sampling phase and can also be used to apply a data voltage to the gate of the drive transistor during a data programming phase. The drive transistor can receive a power supply voltage that toggles between a low voltage during the global reset phase and a high voltage during other phases of operation. Configured and operated in this way, the pixel need not include separate dedicated anode reset and initialization transistors.

Abstract: An on-chip strain measurement device that uses precision frequency measurements to precisely extract sub-nm displacements, allowing residual strain measurements in a given structural film. Strain-induced gap changes to resonance frequencies use differential strategies to remove bias uncertainty, allowing measurement of sub-nm displacements. Gap-dependent electrical stiffness is used to shift resonance frequencies as structural elements stretch or shrink to relieve strain. An output based on differential frequencies between two proximal structures with unequal stress arm lengths removes uncertainty on the initial gap spacing. The ability to precisely measure the frequency of the high-Q structures allows lifetime stress correction of micromechanical circuits, such as oscillators and filters.

Abstract: System and methods for a hollow-disk radial-contour mode resonator structure. The hollow disk reduces the dynamic mass and stiffness of the structure. Since electromechanical coupling Cx/Co goes as the reciprocal of mass and stiffness, the hollow disk structure has a considerably stronger electromechanical coupling than a solid one at the same frequency, and thus raises Cx/Co without excessive gap-scaling. Several embodiments of hollow disk resonators are detailed, including asymmetric and symmetric disk configurations.
