  • Backplane suitable to form part of an emissive pixel array and system and methods of modulating same
    Patent number: 10957272
    Abstract: A backplane operative to drive an array of emissive pixel elements is disclosed. Each pixel element comprises a pixel circuit drive element and an emissive element, wherein the pixel circuit drive element comprises a memory cell, a current source element, and a modulation element. The present invention improves on an emissive display by providing a backplane and modulation system that enables fabrication of multi-color or monochrome LED display systems that operate efficiently and without objectionable image artifacts. One aspect of the present invention is to realize the backplane in a single crystal silicon process with a minimum number of metal layers while providing each color with a suitable operating voltage and drive current.
    Type: Grant
