— A novel active‐matrix organic light‐emitting‐diode (AMOLED) display employing a new current‐mirror pixel circuit, which requires four‐poly‐Si TFTs and one‐capacitor and no additional signal lines, has been proposed and sucessfully fabricated. The experimental results show that a new current mirror can considerably compensate luminance non‐uniformity and scale down a data current more than a conventional current‐mirror circuit in order to reduce the pixel charging time and increase the minimum data current. Compared with a conventional two‐TFT pixel, the luminance non‐uniformity induced by the grain boundaries of poly‐Si TFTs can be decreased considerably from 41% to 9.1%.
