[0069] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0070] The terminal screen includes multiple pixels, and each pixel usually includes three sub-pixels of different colors: R (red), G (green), and B (blue). In the traditional solution, each sub-pixel has a separate pixel control circuit, that is, one pixel corresponds to three pixel control circuits, and each pixel control circuit is connected to a sub-pixel separately to control the sub-pixel, such as controlling the sub-pixel to emit light. Since the pixel control circuit usually includes components such as TFT (Thin Film Transistor) and capacitors, and the sub-pixels and pixel control circuits need to be connected through wiring, a large number of pixel control circuits and a dense wiring layout will result in poor light transmittance of the terminal screen, and the normal operation of the optical device under the screen cannot be guaranteed.

[0071] In the related art, in order to improve the light transmittance of the terminal screen, a solution is proposed, which connects multiple sub-pixels of the same color with a wire, and then connects the wire to a pixel control circuit. Figure 1 As shown, multiple red sub-pixels share a line 1, multiple green sub-pixels share a line 2, and multiple blue sub-pixels share a line 3. In the above manner, the number of pixel control circuits can be reduced, the line layout can be simplified, and the light transmittance of the terminal screen can be improved.

[0072] from Figure 1 It can be seen that since the blue sub-pixel is interspersed between the red sub-pixel and the green sub-pixel, there is a crossover. That is, at least two layers of routing are required to achieve the above Figure 1 Pixel connection shown. Routes 1 and 2 can be located on the same layer. Assuming that the sub-pixels of each color are located on the first layer, Routes 1 and 2 can also be located on the first layer. Routes 3 is limited by space and can no longer be located on the same layer as Routes 1 and 2. It needs to be located on another layer, such as Routes 3 located on the second layer. In addition, when Routes 3 located on the second layer is connected to the blue sub-pixel in the first layer, a corresponding connection portion, such as a metal via, is required to be provided, through which an electrical connection between the upper and lower layers is achieved. Obviously, the more layers of routing there are, the worse the light transmittance of the terminal screen will be, and the metal vias will further reduce the light transmittance, so it is adopted. Figure 1 Although this design can improve light transmittance compared to traditional solutions, it is still not good enough.

[0073] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is Figure 1 Further improvements have been made to this design, which has enabled the routing of three sub-pixels of different colors to be set in the same layer. This can reduce the number of layers of the terminal screen and eliminate the need to set up metal vias for cross-layer connection of routing and sub-pixels, thereby further improving the light transmittance of the terminal screen.

[0074] Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a terminal screen according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the terminal screen may include: a substrate 10 and a display layer 20 located on the upper layer of the substrate 10 .

[0075] The display layer 20 is used to realize the display function of the terminal screen. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display layer 20 includes a main display area 21 and an auxiliary display area 22. Both the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 have a display function. The number of auxiliary display areas 22 can be one or more. Figure 2 In the figure, the number of the auxiliary display area 22 is 1 for schematic illustration. Optionally, the main display area 21 is a display area with a larger area in the display layer 20, and the auxiliary display area 22 is a display area with a smaller area in the display layer 20, that is, the area ratio of the main display area 21 in the display layer 20 is greater than the area ratio of the auxiliary display area 22 in the display layer 20.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display layer 20 includes two different types of display areas, namely, a main display area 21 and an auxiliary display area 22. However, the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 are a unified whole in terms of physical structure, that is, the display layer 20 is an integrated structure, and is not divided into a plurality of independent components. For example, the display layer 20 is disposed on a substrate 10 of an integrated structure, that is, the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 are formed on a substrate. The substrate 10 can be made of glass material, or can be made of flexible materials such as PI (polyimide), which is not limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0077] If the display layer 20 includes multiple independent components, and these components are spliced ​​to form the display layer 20, there will inevitably be certain gaps at the splicing positions, which will eventually lead to gaps between the display contents of each component, and it is impossible to achieve a seamless display effect of the display contents of the entire display layer 20.

[0078] However, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 are a unified whole in physical structure, there is no gap between the two. Therefore, there will be no gap between the display content of the main display area 21 and the display content of the auxiliary display area 22, thereby achieving a seamless display effect of the display content of the entire display layer 20.

[0079] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the auxiliary display area 22 includes a plurality of pixels, each pixel includes at least three sub-pixels of different colors, and the at least three different colors include a first color, a second color, and a third color. Optionally, the at least three different colors include R (red), G (green), and B (blue).

[0080] In the auxiliary display area 22, the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the first color, the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the second color, and the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the third color are located in the same layer. Figure 2 As shown, assuming that the first color is red, the second color is green, and the third color is blue, in the auxiliary display area 22, the wiring for connecting the red sub-pixels, the wiring for connecting the green sub-pixels, and the wiring for connecting the blue sub-pixels are located on the same layer.

[0081] Optionally, in the auxiliary display area 22, the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the first color, the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the second color, the wiring for connecting the sub-pixels of the third color, the sub-pixels of the first color, the sub-pixels of the second color, and the sub-pixels of the third color are all located in the same layer. That is, the sub-pixels and the wiring are located in the same layer. In one example, in the auxiliary display area 22, the wiring for connecting the red sub-pixels, the wiring for connecting the green sub-pixels, the wiring for connecting the blue sub-pixels, the red sub-pixels, the green sub-pixels, and the blue sub-pixels are located in the same layer.

[0082] The terminal screen is a stacked structure, which includes multiple functional layers, and each functional layer is stacked and arranged in a top-down order. Similarly, the auxiliary display area 22 may also include multiple functional layers, and each functional layer is stacked and arranged in a top-down order. Different functional layers can be used to achieve different functions, such as some functional layers are used to set anodes, some functional layers are used to set cathodes, some functional layers are used to set sub-pixels, and some functional layers are used to set wiring, and so on. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, A and B are located in the same layer, which means that A and B are located in the same functional layer. For example, in the auxiliary display area 22, the wiring for connecting the red sub-pixel, the wiring for connecting the green sub-pixel, and the wiring for connecting the blue sub-pixel are located in the same functional layer. Optionally, the wiring of the above-mentioned various color sub-pixels is located in the same functional layer as the various color sub-pixels. Optionally, in the same functional layer, the wiring of the above-mentioned various color sub-pixels is located on the same plane.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, there is no limitation on the pixel arrangement of the auxiliary display area 22 . For example, the pixel arrangement of the auxiliary display area 22 includes but is not limited to at least one of the following: Delta arrangement, Diamond arrangement, Pentile arrangement, standard RGB arrangement, etc.

[0084] In one example, in conjunction with reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the auxiliary display area 22 includes at least one pixel group 23, each pixel group 23 includes n pixel units 24 arranged along the first direction, where n is an integer greater than 1. Figure 3 and Figure 4In the embodiment, the pixel group 23 includes 6 pixel units 24 arranged along the first direction. In practical applications, the number of pixel units 24 included in a pixel group 23 can be designed according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0085] The n pixel units 24 include first pixel units 24a and second pixel units 24b arranged alternately along a first direction; wherein the first pixel unit 24a includes three sub-pixels arranged along a second direction, and the arrangement order of the three sub-pixels included in the first pixel unit 24a is a sub-pixel of a first color, a sub-pixel of a second color, and a sub-pixel of a third color; the second pixel unit 24b includes three sub-pixels arranged along the second direction, and the arrangement order of the three sub-pixels included in the second pixel unit 24b is a sub-pixel of a third color, a sub-pixel of a first color, and a sub-pixel of a second color. Furthermore, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0086] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first direction is the horizontal direction, and the second direction is the vertical direction. The pixel group 23 includes a first pixel unit 24a and a second pixel unit 24b arranged one by one in the horizontal direction; wherein the first pixel unit 24a includes three sub-pixels arranged in the vertical direction, and the arrangement order of the three sub-pixels included in the first pixel unit 24a is red sub-pixel (R), green sub-pixel (G) and blue sub-pixel (B); the second pixel unit 24b includes three sub-pixels arranged in the vertical direction, and the arrangement order of the three sub-pixels included in the second pixel unit 24b is blue sub-pixel (B), red sub-pixel (R) and green sub-pixel (G).

[0087] For each pixel group 23, the sub-pixels of the first color in the first pixel unit 24a and the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the first wiring 25, the sub-pixels of the second color in the first pixel unit 24a and the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the second wiring 26, the sub-pixels of the third color in the first pixel unit 24a are connected one by one in sequence through the third wiring 27, and the sub-pixels of the third color in the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the fourth wiring 28. The first wiring 25, the second wiring 26, the third wiring 27 and the fourth wiring 28 are located in the same layer.

[0088] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in the pixel group 23, the red sub-pixels (R) in the first pixel unit 24a and the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the first wiring 25, the green sub-pixels (G) in the first pixel unit 24a and the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the second wiring 26, the blue sub-pixels (B) in the first pixel unit 24a are connected one by one in sequence through the third wiring 27, and the blue sub-pixels (B) in the second pixel unit 24b are connected one by one in sequence through the fourth wiring 28. Among them, the first wiring 25, the second wiring 26, the third wiring 27 and the fourth wiring 28 are located in the same layer.

[0089] Through the above method, the sub-pixels of the third color in the first pixel unit 24a are connected through a routing line, and the sub-pixels of the third color in the second pixel unit 24b are connected through another routing line. In this way, there is no need to connect the sub-pixels of each third color by crossing the line, thereby achieving the setting of the routing lines of three different color sub-pixels in the same layer. In this way, the number of layers of the terminal screen can be reduced, and there is no need to set metal vias for crossing the layers to connect the routing lines and sub-pixels, thereby further improving the light transmittance of the terminal screen.

[0090] In addition, when each pixel includes three sub-pixels of R, G, and B, in an exemplary embodiment, the first color is red, the second color is green, and the third color is blue; or, the first color is red, the second color is blue, and the third color is green; or, the first color is green, the second color is red, and the third color is blue; or, the first color is green, the second color is blue, and the third color is red; or, the first color is blue, the second color is red, and the third color is green; or, the first color is blue, the second color is red, and the third color is green. In the above Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the figure, only the first color is red, the second color is green, and the third color is blue for schematic illustration, which does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution of the present disclosure.

[0091] In addition, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, there is no limitation on the pixel arrangement and routing of the main display area 21, which can be the same as the auxiliary display area 22 or different from the auxiliary display area 22. In order to ensure the display performance of the main display area 21, the main display area 21 can adopt a traditional pixel arrangement and routing method, that is, each sub-pixel has an independent pixel control circuit to control it separately. In this way, the light transmittance of the auxiliary display area 22 will be better than the light transmittance of the main display area 21, so that optical devices such as cameras, light sensors, proximity sensors, optical transmitters, optical receivers, etc. can be set below the auxiliary display area 22, and ensure that these optical devices can work normally, thereby ensuring the working performance of the above optical devices to the greatest extent.

[0092] It should be noted that the light transmittance is an indicator used to measure the light transmittance of a medium (such as the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 in the embodiment of the present disclosure). The light transmittance may include transmittance and / or light transmittance quality. Among them, the transmittance is the percentage of the luminous flux transmitted through the medium (such as the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 in the embodiment of the present disclosure) to the incident luminous flux. Transmittance may also be referred to as light transmittance. Light transmittance quality refers to the quality of light transmitted through a medium (such as the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 in the embodiment of the present disclosure). Characterization parameters of light transmittance quality include but are not limited to at least one of the following: haze, SFR (Spatial Frequency Response), MTF (Modulation Transfer Function), which corresponds to the sharpness index of the image. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the optical device can be arranged below the auxiliary display area 22. Since the transmittance and / or light transmittance quality of the auxiliary display area 22 are better, the working performance of the above-mentioned optical device can be ensured to the greatest extent.

[0093] It should also be noted that, in the above embodiments, a pixel including sub-pixels of three colors, namely R, G, and B, is mainly used as an example for description. In other examples, in addition to sub-pixels of the three colors, R, G, and B, sub-pixels of other colors may also be included, such as white (W) sub-pixels, or the above three colors, R, G, and B, may be replaced by other colors, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0094] It should also be noted that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the wiring refers to the power line and / or signal line used to control the pixel display. The power line is used to provide voltage to the pixel; the signal line is used to provide control signals to the pixel, such as pixel values ​​such as brightness or grayscale, and the signal line can also be called a data line.

[0095] In summary, in the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, by setting the wiring of the three sub-pixels of different colors in the auxiliary display area in the same layer, the number of layers of the terminal screen can be reduced, and there is no need to set metal vias for connecting the wiring and sub-pixels across layers, thereby further improving the light transmittance of the terminal screen. In this way, optical devices such as cameras, light sensors, proximity sensors, optical transmitters, optical receivers, etc. can be set below the auxiliary display area, and these optical devices can be ensured to work normally, thereby ensuring the working performance of the above optical devices to the greatest extent.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, the auxiliary display area 22 may include one pixel group 23, or may include multiple (i.e., two or more) pixel groups 23. When the auxiliary display area 22 includes multiple pixel groups 23, the structure of each pixel group 23 (such as the number of pixels included, the arrangement method, etc.) may be the same or different, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0097] like Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 , it exemplarily shows a schematic diagram of the arrangement of the auxiliary display area 22 including four pixel groups 23. Figure 5 In order to more clearly distinguish each pixel group 23, the intervals between adjacent pixel groups 23 are enlarged. In practical applications, the intervals between adjacent pixel groups 23 can be closer, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 6 As shown, the auxiliary display area 22 may include more pixel groups 23, and each pixel group 23 may be arranged in an array in the auxiliary display area 22. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number and arrangement of the pixel groups 23 included in the auxiliary display area 22 are not specifically limited.

[0098] In addition, in order to enable the sub-pixels in the auxiliary display area 22 to emit light, the sub-pixels in the auxiliary display area 22 need to be connected to the pixel control circuit through wiring. In order to ensure the light transmittance of the auxiliary display area 22 as much as possible, the pixel control circuit of the sub-pixels in the auxiliary display area 22 can be set outside the auxiliary display area 22, for example, in the main display area 21. In this way, the wiring in the auxiliary display area 22 needs to extend outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and connect to the pixel control circuit located outside the auxiliary display area 22.

[0099] In one example, if Figure 7 As shown, the third wiring 27 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the first pixel control circuit 31 located outside the auxiliary display area 22; the fourth wiring 28 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the second pixel control circuit 32 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In addition, the first wiring 25 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the third pixel control circuit 33 located outside the auxiliary display area 22; the second wiring 26 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the fourth pixel control circuit 34 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In the above manner, for the same pixel group 23, sub-pixels of the same color are controlled by one pixel control circuit, and sub-pixels of different colors are controlled respectively by different pixel control circuits. In addition, the above-mentioned first pixel control circuit 31 and the second pixel control circuit 32 are the same pixel control circuit; or, the first pixel control circuit 31 and the second pixel control circuit 32 are two different pixel control circuits.

[0100] In another example, Figure 8As shown, the third wiring 27 is connected to the fourth wiring 28 in the auxiliary display area 22, and the fourth wiring 28 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the pixel control circuit 35 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In addition, the first wiring 25 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the third pixel control circuit 33 located outside the auxiliary display area 22; the second wiring 26 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the fourth pixel control circuit 34 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In the above manner, the third wiring 27 and the fourth wiring 28 are connected to the same pixel control circuit 35, and the pixel control circuit 35 is used to control two groups of sub-pixels of the third color at the same time.

[0101] exist Figure 8 In this case, in order to realize connecting the third routing line 27 to the fourth routing line 28 in the auxiliary display area 22, the following design can be adopted: the first routing line 25, the second routing line 26, the third routing line 27 and the fourth routing line 28 are located in the first layer; there is a second layer above or below the first layer, and the second layer includes a jumper 36; one end of the third routing line 27 is connected to one end of the jumper 36, and the other end of the jumper 36 is connected to the fourth routing line 28. The jumper 36 can be set in a functional layer located above or below the first layer, and the jumper 36 and other routing lines (that is, the first routing line 25, the second routing line 26, the third routing line 27 and the fourth routing line 28) are located in two different functional layers. The functional layer used to set the jumper 36 can be a separate functional layer, or it can be a functional layer already in the auxiliary display area 22, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this. In addition, since the jumper 36 and the third and fourth routing lines 27 and 28 are located in two different functional layers, the connection between the jumper 36 and the third routing line 27 and the connection between the jumper 36 and the fourth routing line 28 can be achieved through metal vias.

[0102] In another example, Fig. 9 As shown, the fourth wiring 28 is connected to the third wiring 27 in the auxiliary display area 22, and the third wiring 27 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the pixel control circuit 35 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In addition, the first wiring 25 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the third pixel control circuit 33 located outside the auxiliary display area 22; the second wiring 26 extends outward from the auxiliary display area 22 and is connected to the fourth pixel control circuit 34 located outside the auxiliary display area 22. In the above manner, it is also achieved that the third wiring 27 and the fourth wiring 28 are connected to the same pixel control circuit 35, and the two groups of sub-pixels of the third color are controlled simultaneously by the pixel control circuit 35.

[0103] exist Fig. 9In this case, in order to realize connecting the fourth routing line 28 to the third routing line 27 in the auxiliary display area 22, the following design can be adopted: the first routing line 25, the second routing line 26, the third routing line 27 and the fourth routing line 28 are located in the first layer; there is a second layer above or below the first layer, and the second layer includes a jumper 36; one end of the fourth routing line 28 is connected to one end of the jumper 36, and the other end of the jumper 36 is connected to the third routing line 27. The jumper 36 can be set in a functional layer located above or below the first layer, and the jumper 36 and other routing lines (that is, the first routing line 25, the second routing line 26, the third routing line 27 and the fourth routing line 28) are located in two different functional layers. The functional layer used to set the jumper 36 can be a separate functional layer, or it can be a functional layer already in the auxiliary display area 22, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this. In addition, since the jumper 36 and the third and fourth routing lines 27 and 28 are located in two different functional layers, the connection between the jumper 36 and the third routing line 27 and the connection between the jumper 36 and the fourth routing line 28 can be achieved through metal vias.

[0104] In addition, for the above Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In the design scheme shown in FIG. 1 , since the third line 27 and the fourth line 28 converge into one line in the auxiliary display area 22 and then go out of the auxiliary display area 22, for one pixel group 23, only three lines need to be extended outward. Figure 7 The design shown can save a wiring space. When the auxiliary display area 22 includes a large number of pixel groups 23, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The design shown is more advantageous.

[0105] In an exemplary embodiment, if Fig.10 As shown, the display layer 20 also includes a transition display area 29 (the area filled with oblique lines in the figure), and the transition display area 29 is located between the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22. Due to the different pixel distributions of the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22, the resolutions of the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 are different, which leads to differences in the display effects of the two. The transition display area 29 is used to make the resolution transition between the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22 smoother and more natural, thereby improving the display effect of the entire terminal screen. For example, the resolution of the transition display area 29 can be between the main display area 21 and the auxiliary display area 22.

[0106] In addition, when the display layer 20 further includes a transition display area 29, the pixel control circuit of the auxiliary display area 22 may be located in the transition display area 29 and / or the main display area 21.
