A 1.25" circular plastic-based AMOLED display has been developed for wearable application. By locating gate drivers in the active area and bending the plastic substrate outside the active area of the panel, we successfully realized a display with true circular shape and slim border, respectively.

Objective Obesity is associated with an increased risk of osteoarthritis, and the incidence of obese patients requiring a total knee replacement (TKR) has increased in recent years. A high body mass index (BMI) may influence post-TKR rehabilitation outcomes. We investigated the effects of obesity on functional mobility outcomes following post-TKR rehabilitation in Asian patients whose BMIs were not as high as those reported in similar studies performed in non-Asian countries. Methods A total of 113 patients were categorized as normal weight (n = 23), overweight (n = 32), class I obese (n = 31), or class II/III obese (n = 27). Patients were retrospectively followed up for 6 months after undergoing TKR followed by 2 months of active rehabilitation. Outcome measures were recorded at baseline and at the 2-month and 6-month followup assessments and included the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index and the following tests: functional reach, single-leg stance, ten-meter walk, timed up and go, chair rise, and stair climbing. Results A 4 × 3 (group × time) repeated-measures analysis of variance showed significant improvement in all of the outcome measures for all of the BMI groups at the 2-month and 6-month followup assessments (P

We reported amorphous Indium-Gallium-Zinc-Oxide (a-IGZO) TFT OLED TV panel development in AUO. The Generation 6 (G6) threshold voltage uniformity can be lower than 0.8V. The RGB side-by-side OLED patterning was realized by fine metal mask. By the application of a source follower connection pixel compensation circuit, the panels driven by AUO engine show excellent characteristics. For future product performance requirement, amorphous Indium-Tin-Zinc-Oxide (a-ITZO) TFT was developing, high mobility as 33.2 cm2/Vs was achieved. Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system was also used to improve the mobility of IGZO TFT. To improve manufacturing efficiency of OLED process, inkjet printing technology is also under development in AUO.

We reported a 65 inches amorphous oxide thin film transistors active-matrix organic light-emitting diode television panel. The thin film transistor shows an excellent characteristic. The long range threshold voltage uniformity is 0.34V. The side by side organic light-emitting diode device is realized by fine metal mask. The dam and fill encapsulation method shows a simple process procedure and high stability.

We present the light-on results of our 65-inch organic ***light-emitting diode (OLED) panel fabricated by the inkjet printing (IJP) process. The panel uses solution-processable OLED material for the hole injection layer (HIL), the hole transporting layer (HTL) and the emitting layers (EML) for the red, green and blue colors. It is found that fine-tuning the vacuum dry speed after the inkjet printing process can improve the uniformity of the pixels. The results show that we can successfully fabricate a 65-inch OLED panel with a high degree of pixel uniformity.

AMOLED displays based on metal oxide film as active channel layer are fabricated. To achieve cost-competitive process in OLED manufacturing, solution-processed HIL, HTL and pixilated EML (RGB) layers followed by evaporation process for other layers are demonstrated in this work. Meanwhile, the AMOLED backplanes possessing low power consumption and high frequency were fabricated on metal oxide TFTs with high mobility (23.13 cm2/Vs) technology. A 14” qHD AMOLED in 79 ppi-resolution was realized with IGZO based active matrix panel.
