Display device and manufacturing method thereof

摘要

A display device capable of applying reverse driving voltage for a light emitting element to a light emitting element every certain period for prolonging light emitting element's life and burning out a shorted portion. Besides a path for supplying forward current to the light emitting element, a path for supplying reverse current is provided. A driving transistor is provided in the former path while a transistor (AC transistor) is provided in the latter path, thereby a switching between the two paths is controlled. The AC transistor has a rate L/W of a channel length L to a channel width W smaller than that of the driving transistor. Accordingly, current flowing into the light emitting element can be flowed into the AC transistor in the case of reverse driving voltage being applied to the light emitting element.
