Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display device including a pixel array having a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form, each of the pixels including a sampling transistor configured to sample a data potential from a video signal line which is insulated from and intersects a control line in response to the change in potential of the control line, and a light-emitting element configured to emit light at the brightness commensurate with the magnitude of the post-sampling data potential.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus comprising a pixel array having a plurality of pixels, at least one of the plurality of pixels including: a light emitting element; a pixel capacitor configured to store a potential; a first transistor configured to sample a data signal; a second transistor configured to drive the light emitting element according to the potential stored in the pixel capacitor; a first wiring comprising a lower wiring portion including Molybdenum (Mo) and…
