To improve the image quality of active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays at low luminance levels, a novel power structure is proposed. Its effectiveness was validated by fabricating a 13-inch AMOLED panel with a tandem OLED and evaluating its optical performance. Compared to the conventional structure, the proposed structure reduced panel luminance deviation by 12% and color deviation by 41%, while also achieving a 41% reduction in hysteresis-induced color shift. As the temperature compensation capability was enhanced, luminance and color inconsistencies were minimized. By achieving these improvements, the proposed structure effectively addresses a key commercialization challenge for high-efficiency AMOLED technologies. While high-efficiency technologies enable high brightness and low power consumption, they also increase the sensitivity of luminance to small current deviations, making it more difficult to maintain image quality at low luminance. The proposed structure addresses this issue by applying individually optimized anode initialization voltages to each color subpixel, enabling more precise control of the OLED driving conditions and demonstrating substantial improvements in low-luminance image quality.
为了在低亮度水平下提高有源矩阵有机发光二极管(AMOLED)显示器的图像质量,提出了一种新颖的电源结构。通过制造具有串联OLED的13英寸AMOLED面板并评估其光学性能,验证了其有效性。与传统结构相比,所提出的结构将面板亮度偏差降低了12%,颜色偏差降低了41%,同时还实现了由滞后引起的颜色偏移降低41%。随着温度补偿能力的增强,亮度和颜色不一致性降至最低。通过实现这些改进,所提出的结构有效地解决了高效AMOLED技术的一个关键商业化挑战。虽然高效技术能够实现高亮度和低功耗,但它们也增加了亮度对小电流偏差的敏感度,使得在低亮度下更难保持图像质量。所提出的结构通过对每个颜色子像素应用单独优化的阳极初始化电压来解决这个问题,从而能够更精确地控制OLED驱动条件,并在低亮度图像质量方面取得了显著改进。
