Samsung just got approval for a display innovation patent, which it applied to last year. United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) recently published the Samsung patent, which was filed on April 30, 2023, with publication number US20240138190A1.

As Samsung continues to innovate, the Display division is about to bring a major breakthrough. The latest patent showcases display technology featuring a pixel circuit with a unique concave base layer design. It’s said to enhance capacitor integration for sharper, more efficient screens.

Here’s what the patent says:

The published patent showcases a display device that has a pixel circuit layer including a base layer and a pixel circuit disposed on the base layer, and a light-emitting element disposed on the base layer and electrically connected to the pixel circuit.

Pixel circuit retains a transistor and a storage capacitor including a first and second capacitor electrode, with the base layer including a concave portion. At least a portion of each of the first and second capacitor electrodes is disposed of in the concave portion.

Simply put, the display patent describes a new layout design that helps improve the overall performance and flexibility of the display device. As the patent took a year to be approved, we might hear more about it from Samsung during its display innovation summits.
