  • Patent number: 11915644
    Abstract: Various examples are provided related to compensating brightness of a display using a vertical organic light emitting transistor that suppresses variations in brightness over a long period of time and a display. In one example, a method includes applying a voltage for brightness inspection to a gate electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor to be corrected, measuring a current flowing through a current supply line through which the current is supplied to a source electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor by the application of the voltage for brightness inspection to the gate electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor to be corrected, and determining a corrected value of the voltage to be applied to the gate electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor based on a value of the current and characteristic information of the vertical organic light emitting transistor stored in the memory.

  • Publication number: 20220215800
    Abstract: Provided is a method of driving a light emitting a display in which variations in image quality and brightness are suppressed despite long-term use, without adding a complicated circuit configuration. The driving a light emitting method includes a step (A) of applying a voltage based on image data to be displayed to a gate electrode of a vertical organic light emitting transistor and a step (B) of, after the step (A), applying a voltage, having a polarity opposite to that of the voltage applied to the gate electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor in the step (A), to the gate electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor based on a value of a voltage being applied to a source electrode of the vertical organic light emitting transistor.
