Abstract

An organic light emitting diode display includes a semiconductor pattern which includes a plurality of channel regions. A first gate insulating layer is on the semiconductor pattern, a first gate conductive layer is on the first gate insulating layer, a second gate insulating layer is on the first gate conductive layer, and a second gate conductive layer is on the second gate insulating layer. The channel regions include a first channel region that overlaps the first gate conductive layer and a second channel region that does not overlap the first gate conductive layer. The first channel region and the second channel region have different doping concentrations.

Claims (16)

1. An organic light emitting diode display, comprising:

a substrate;

a semiconductor pattern on the substrate and including channel regions;

a first gate insulating layer on the semiconductor pattern;

a first gate conductive layer on the first gate insulating layer;

a second gate insulating layer on the first gate conductive layer; and

a second gate conductive layer on the second gate insulating layer, wherein the channel regions include a first channel region that overlaps the first gate conductive layer and a second channel region that does not overlap the first gate conductive layer, and wherein the first channel region and the second channel region have different doping concentrations.

2. The display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second gate conductive layer overlaps each of the channel regions.

3. The display as claimed in claim 2 , wherein:

the first channel region includes a driving channel region in a driving transistor and a first switching channel region in a first switching transistor,

the second channel region includes a second switching channel region in a second switching transistor, and

the first switching transistor and the second switching transistor have different threshold voltages.

4. The display as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the first gate conductive layer and the second gate conductive layer that respectively overlap the driving channel region form a storage capacitor along with the second gate insulating layer.

5. The display as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the first gate conductive layer overlapping the driving channel region receives a driving voltage.

6. The display as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first gate conductive layer overlapping the first channel region has substantially an island shape.

7. The display as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first switching transistor includes a source electrode coupled to a drain electrode of the driving transistor.
