Abstract

An inspection system for inspecting characteristics of an active matrix panel before formation of OLEDs includes: a roller contact probe having a conductive material on at least a surface thereof and sequentially contacting pixel electrodes formed on the active matrix panel while rotating; probe control circuits having capability to apply a voltage necessary for measurement to TFT arrays including pixel electrodes with which the roller contact probe is in contact; and a computer measuring currents flowing through the TFT arrays to which a voltage is applied and statistically processing the measurement results.
