Fig. 2 A illustrates addressing method according to the display screen of first embodiment of the invention to 2F.
This method comprises the offset programming steps A at the modulator 34 of second addressing circuit 12.Select driver element 28 to send and select voltage V to second electrode 26 S2, shown in Fig. 2 B.By selecting voltage V S2The grid that is applied to selector switch 38 comes conducting selector switch 38.
Simultaneously, addressing driver element 22 is with the bias voltage V of negative polarity p(V Gs<0) is applied to addressing electrode 20.Apply bias voltage V at the grid place of current modulator 34 and the terminal place of holding capacitor 36 pShown in the curve among Fig. 2 E, during former frame, flow through modulator 34 with drain current I to optical transmitting set 4 power supplies D2Trend towards 0 in this new image duration.
Simultaneously, shown in Fig. 2 D, with bias voltage V pThe voltage V that polarization has stored during former frame to be applied in advance DHolding capacitor 36; Shown in the curve among this figure, during the biasing stage at second addressing circuit 12, holding capacitor 36 keeps this bias voltage at the grid place of modulator 34, till the next programming step at modulator 34 finishes.Step B, C and D have formed the stage of second addressing circuit 12 that is used to setover jointly.
The activation threshold value voltage of modulator 34 has experienced skew in previous image image duration owing to apply addressing voltage, in this biasing stage and whole new image duration, owing to apply bias voltage V p, skew once more, but opposite with a preceding offset direction.
The bias voltage that apply at the grid place of modulator 34 new image duration has its activation threshold value variation of counter-rotating and activation threshold value voltage is reverted to the effect of initial value, that is, return to during the former frame owing to apply the numerical value of addressing voltage before being offset at its grid place.
During addressing programming step B, select driver element 28 to produce and select voltage V at the modulator 14 of first addressing circuit 6 S1, and it is applied to first electrode 24.
