IPC: H01L31/042

Abstract: An electromagnetic-wave absorbing method using a solar cell
or cells is provided, whereby there comes about essentially no
reflection of electromagnetic waves by the solar cell or cells without
impeding solar light power generation thereby. A solar cell module
(10) may be constructed from a plurality of solar cells (1) wherein
respective upper electrodes (2, 2) are electrically connected together
by a conductor (7) and a common lower electrode (6) is used. So that
any possibly reflected wave may be absorbed, the impedance of the
solar cells to electromagnetic waves incident thereon is matched to an
electromagnetic-wave characteristic impedance by adjusting the
number of the solar cells (1) arranged or the way in which they are
arranged or by connecting a capacitor (13) across a pair of output
terminals (8, 9) of the module. Alternatively, a plurality of such solar
cell modules (10) different in shape and/or surface area are arranged
in such a manner that reflected wave being reflected by the individual
solar cell modules differ in phase so that they may be canceled one by
another. Alternatively, it is possible to form an electromagnetic wave
reflector (54, 57) on a rear surface of the solar cell (1) or on a wall
surface over which it is to be mounted and a reticular
electromagnetic-wave reflector (55) on a top surface of the solar cell,
in an arrangement such that a reflected wave being reflected by the
electromagnetic-wave reflector (54, 57) on the rear surface or the wall
surface and a reflected wave being reflected by the reticular
electromagnetic-wave reflector (55) may interfere with each other and
be thereby cancelled each by other.

Abstract: An active matrix electroluminescent (EL) display device has a switching circuit for each display pixel which has a drive transistor (30) and a cascode transistor (32) in series with the associated EL display element (20). The switching circuit is operable in two modes, a first mode in which an input current is sampled by the drive transistor (30) and a second mode in which the drive transistor drives a current corresponding to the input current through the EL display element (20). This configuration uses the same transistor for current sampling as for current driving, thereby avoiding the need for matched transistors. The cascode transistor increases the output impedance and ensures that no voltage fluctuations pass to the drive transistor, so that a constant current supply is maintained.
