  • Publication number: 20240087505
    Abstract: A display pixel including at least one light-emitting diode, a circuit for driving the light-emitting diode, and first, second, third, and fourth conductive pads. The driver circuit is powered with a first power supply voltage received between the first and second pads. The light-emitting diode is powered with a first binary signal, received between the third and second pads, and alternating between a second power supply voltage, greater than the first voltage, and a third voltage, smaller than the first voltage. The driver circuit is configured to determine a digital signal based on the values of a second binary signal on the fourth pad received during each of first pulses of the first binary signal at the third voltage and to control the light-emitting diode from the digital signal.

  • Publication number: 20230272522
    Abstract: A method for functionalizing a cellulose-based substrate by chemical deposition of at least one thin layer, from gaseous precursors. The method includes the provision of a substrate including at least one sheet having a first face and a second face, of surface roughness greater than or equal to 0.1 ?m. The first face has a part superposed to another part belonging to the first face or to the second face. A spacing between said parts is conserved at least locally, so as to enable a diffusion of the gaseous precursors. The method also includes the gaseous chemical deposition of at least one thin layer on the substrate such as provided by diffusion of the gaseous precursors, the gaseous precursors diffusing at least in each spacing.
