Publication number: 20240178209Abstract: Disclosed is a display device including an oxide semiconductor. The display device includes a light-emitting device and a pixel driving circuit located in each pixel area. The pixel driving circuit supplies a driving current corresponding to a data signal to the light-emitting device in response to a gate signal. The pixel driving circuit includes a driving thin-film transistor and at least one switching thin-film transistor. The driving thin-film transistor includes a driving semiconductor pattern made of an oxide semiconductor. A conductive pattern including a metal is located under the driving semiconductor pattern. The conductive pattern is in contact with the driving semiconductor pattern. The conductive pattern has a larger work function than the driving semiconductor pattern. Accordingly, occurrence of mura at low grayscale is prevented without a reduction in on-current. Consequently, the display device exhibits improved image quality.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Ki Tae Kim, Deuk Ho Yeon, Sun Wook Ko
