The electroluminescent device successively comprises a cathode, an electroluminescent layer, a transparent electrode layer, an evanescent light-scattering layer comprising a matrix composed of a low-refractive material containing light-scattering particles, and a transparent sheet/plate. Such an electroluminescent device is decreased in total reflection not only at a boundary surface between a transparent substrate and an outside air layer but also at a boundary surface of the transparent electrode layer on its light extraction side, and therefore, is considerably improved in light extraction efficiency. In addition, in the electroluminescent device provided with a barrier layer, the transparent electrode layer and the electroluminescent layer can be well protected so that deterioration of electroluminescent pigments and occurrence of dark spots can be effectively prevented, resulting in enhanced life of the device.

A dark spot defect caused by short-circuiting of an EL element is detected based on an emission brightness or a current flowing through the EL element when an element driving transistor which controls a drive current to be supplied to the EL element is operated in its linear operating region and the EL element is set to an emission level. A dim spot defect caused by a characteristic variation of the element driving transistor can be detected based on a current flowing through the EL element when the element driving transistor is operated in its saturation operating region and the EL element is set to the emission level. When an abnormal display pixel is detected based on an emission brightness, a pixel which is determined as an abnormal display pixel and which is not determined as a dark spot defect during a dark spot inspection is determined, and the pixel is detected as a dim spot defect caused by the characteristic variation of the element driving transistor.

A messenger strand mounted low-power pico-cell radio, having its own environmentally controlled box, mounted on utility messenger strands, connects to the cable using the Internet protocol (IP) for back-haul, and has in-band monitor and control capability. These pico-cell radios also receive power through the same cable connection. The configuration control and monitoring is by independent discretely-managed internal mechanisms that can be remotely addressed. These internal mechanisms include the modem for backhaul, wireless radio transceiver(s), and the system management device for operation, administration, maintenance, and control. Such pico-cell radios help to provide wireless connectivity and coverage efficiently by reducing dark spots in wireless coverage. Distributing these radios in reasonable, close proximity enables wireless coverage in difficult terrains, where current high power systems fail. The radios disclosed herein eliminate the need and cost for additional power lines and IP connection lines, and are therefore easy to install and maintain.

A computer-controlled system determines attributes of a frexel, an area of human skin, and applies an electrostatically charged modifying agent (RMA) at the pixel level, to make the skin appear more attractive. The system scans the frexel, identifies unattractive attributes, charges the RMA with an electrostatic charger, and applies the RMA, typically with an inkjet printer. The identified attributes relate to reflectance and may refer to features such as irregular-looking light and dark spots, age-spots, scars, and bruises. Identified attributes may also relate to the surface topology of the skin, for more precisely enhancing surface irregularities. Feature mapping may be used, for example to make cheeks appear pinker and cheekbones more prominent. The charged RMA can be applied in agreement with identified patterns, such as adding red to a red frexel, or in opposition, such as adding green or blue to a red frexel, according to idealized models of attractiveness.

An organic light emitting display device, which may maximize aperture ratio of a pixel while also reducing the perception of a dark spot when a sub-pixel is partially short-circuited. The organic light emitting display device includes a plurality of pixels having sub-pixels. Some of the sub-pixels may have a thin organic emission layer which makes them likely to short-circuit across the thin organic emission layer. These sub-pixels are formed as divided sub-pixels including at least two drive transistors and operate such that even if one part of the divided sub-pixel has a short circuit, the other part will continue to emit light. Accordingly, while luminance is reduced as a result of short circuiting, a completely dark spot will not appear in the place of the pixel including the short circuit.
