  • Patent number: 11252804
    Abstract: An OLED driving device includes an overdrive controller (ODC) which executes an overdrive of applying to an OLED an electric current larger than a rated electric current for the OLED for a predetermined period (period for the overdrive) to cause the OLED to emit brighter light for the predetermined period than at the rated electric current for the OLED for light emitting. The controller (ODC) executes a PWM control to the electric current flowing to the OLED for the predetermined period, and sets a PWM signal in the predetermined period so that at least one pulse of a pulse before the OLED starts the light emitting and a pulse at a just time when the OLED starts the light emitting has a width larger than a width of a pulse after the OLED starts the light emitting.

  • Patent number: 6194069
    Abstract: A process for the production of insulator-coated black particles, which comprises the steps of (1-a) dispersing particles of silica or a metal oxide in an alcohol-based solvent consisting mainly of an intermediate alcohol to obtain a dispersion of the above particles, (1-c) forming a titanium oxide coating of TiO2 on the surface of each of the particles whose surfaces have been activated in the above step, to obtain titanium oxide-coated particles, (1-d) calcining the titanium oxide-coated particles obtained in the above step in a reducing and/or nitriding atmosphere and thereby blackening the above titanium oxide coatings to obtain black particles, and (1-e) forming an electrical insulator coating on a surface of each of the black particles obtained in the above step, to obtain insulator-coated black particles; characerized in that the process includes a step of (1-b) adding an alkaline aqueous solution to the dispersion obtained instep (1-a) to activate a surface of each of the particles of a metal oxi
