[0073] In order to further illustrate the display substrate and the manufacturing method thereof, and the display device provided by the embodiments of the present invention, a detailed description is given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0074] Based on the problems existing in the background technology, the inventors of the present invention have discovered through research that the reason for the poor uniformity of the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product is that the resistance values ​​of the test signal lines included in the test circuit differ greatly, resulting in a large difference in the voltage drop of the test signal lines. As a result, when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the uniformity of the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product is poor, affecting the accuracy of the test of the display product.

[0075] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a display substrate, comprising: a display area AA and a non-display area located around the display area AA, the display substrate further comprising a test structure CT located in the non-display area, the test structure CT comprising a plurality of test circuits arranged along a first direction, each of the test circuits comprising:

[0076] a plurality of test signal lines, the plurality of test signal lines comprising a first test signal line 1 and a second test signal line 2, the first test signal line 1 extending along a second direction, the second test signal line 2 comprising a first portion extending along the first direction and a second portion extending along the second direction, the second direction intersecting the first direction;

[0077] The width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 along a direction perpendicular to the first direction is different from the width of the first test signal line 1 along the second direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 along a direction perpendicular to the second direction is different from the width of the first test signal line 1 along the second direction perpendicular to the second direction; the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is less than a first threshold.

[0078] Specifically, the display substrate includes a display area AA and a non-display area surrounding the display area AA. Exemplarily, the non-display area includes a first fan-out area N, a test structure CT setting area, a second fan-out area M and a chip binding area (not shown in the figure) arranged in sequence along a direction away from the display area AA. The non-display area also includes a bending area G, which overlaps with the first fan-out area N and is located inside the first fan-out area N.

[0079] Each of the test circuits may include a plurality of test signal lines. For example, the plurality of test signal lines may include a first test signal line 1 and a second test signal line 2 of different shapes, wherein the first test signal line 1 extends along a second direction, and the second direction may be the same as the extension direction of the data line in the display substrate, but is not limited thereto; the second test signal line 2 may include a first portion extending along the first direction and a second portion extending along the second direction, and the first direction may include a plurality of directions intersecting with the second direction, such as: the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction; or the angle between the first direction and the second direction is less than 90 degrees. In addition, the first direction may be set as the X direction, and the second direction may be set as the Y direction.

[0080] By adjusting the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 are adjusted, so that the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is less than a first threshold.

[0081] It should be noted that the first threshold value can be set according to actual needs, and illustratively, the first threshold value is 1Ω. In addition, the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is less than the first threshold value, that is, the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 are essentially equal.

[0082] It is also worth noting that the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 along a direction perpendicular to the first direction, the width of the first test signal line 1 along a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 along a direction perpendicular to the second direction, and the width of the first test signal line 1 along the second direction; as well as the "width" mentioned in other parts of the present application document may refer to the maximum width, but is not limited to this.

[0083] According to the specific structure of the above-mentioned display substrate, in the display substrate provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by setting the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction to be different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; and the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction to be different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is smaller than the first threshold value, so that the voltage drop difference of each test signal line is smaller, and when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product has high uniformity, which effectively improves the accuracy of the display product testing.

[0084] like Figure 2 and Figure 3a As shown, in some embodiments, the width h5 of the first portion of the second test signal line 2 along a direction perpendicular to the first direction is smaller than the width h2 of the second portion of the second test signal line 2 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width h1 of the first test signal line 1 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction is smaller than the width h2 of the second portion of the second test signal line 2 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction.

[0085] Specifically, the total lengths of the first test signal line 1 and the second test signal line 2 in the second direction can be set to be the same. Since the first test signal line 1 extends along the second direction, that is, it only includes a portion extending along the second direction, and the second test signal line 2 includes a first portion extending along the first direction and a second portion extending along the second direction, the routing stroke of the second test signal line 2 is greater than the routing stroke of the first test signal line 1. In this way, when setting the line widths of the first test signal line 1 and the second test signal line 2, the width of the first portion of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction can be set to be smaller than the width of the second portion of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction is smaller than the width of the second portion of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, thereby achieving that the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is smaller than the first threshold, so that the voltage drop difference of each test signal line is small, and when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the uniformity of the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product is high, which effectively improves the accuracy of the display product test.

[0086] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, each of the test circuits further includes: a first test sub-circuit CT1, wherein the first test sub-circuit CT1 includes:

[0087] A first test unit, wherein the orthographic projection of the first test unit on the substrate of the display substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the first test signal line 1 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the second test signal line 2 on the substrate; an output end of the first test unit is coupled to the first test signal line 1, and is used to output a first picture test signal and a second picture test signal to the first test signal line 1 in a time-sharing manner;

[0088] A second test unit, the orthographic projection of the second test unit on the substrate is located on a side of the orthographic projection of the second test signal line 2 on the substrate away from the orthographic projection of the first test signal line 1 on the substrate; the output end of the second test unit is coupled to the second test signal line 2, for outputting a third picture test signal to the second test signal line 2.

[0089] Specifically, the working process of the first test sub-circuit CT1 of the above structure is as follows:

[0090] In a first test period, the first test unit writes a first picture test signal to the first test signal line 1 , and the second test unit writes a third picture test signal to the second test signal line 2 , so as to implement a first picture test on the display substrate.

[0091] In the second test period, the first test unit writes a second picture test signal to the first test signal line 1 , and the second test unit writes a third picture test signal to the second test signal line 2 , so as to implement a second picture test on the display substrate.

[0092] Exemplarily, the first picture test signal includes a blue pixel test signal, the second picture test signal includes a red pixel test signal, and the third picture test signal includes a green pixel test signal. During the first test period, a green-blue (GB) picture test is performed on the display substrate, and during the second test period, a green-red (GR) picture test is performed on the display substrate.

[0093] The first test unit and the second test unit of the above structure can perform display screen tests of different screens on the display substrate in a time-sharing manner, thereby achieving more accurate detection of the display performance of the display substrate.

[0094] like Figure 2 and Figure 3a As shown, the specific layout positions of the first test unit and the second test unit are various. In some embodiments, the test signal line includes a first conductive pattern 21, a second conductive pattern 22, a third conductive pattern 23, a fourth conductive pattern 24, a fifth conductive pattern 25, a sixth conductive pattern 26 and a seventh conductive pattern 27 coupled in sequence;

[0095] The first part of the second test signal line 2 includes: the second conductive pattern 22, the fourth conductive pattern 24 and the sixth conductive pattern 26, and the second part of the second test signal line 2 includes: the first conductive pattern 21, the third conductive pattern 23, the fifth conductive pattern 25 and the seventh conductive pattern 27;

[0096] The second conductive pattern 22 , the third conductive pattern 23 , the fourth conductive pattern 24 , the fifth conductive pattern 25 and the sixth conductive pattern 26 together with the first test signal line 1 define a first accommodation space 81 , and at least a portion of the first test unit is located in the first accommodation space 81 .

[0097] Specifically, since the second conductive pattern 22, the fourth conductive pattern 24 and the sixth conductive pattern 26 extend along the first direction, the third conductive pattern 23 and the fifth conductive pattern 25 extend along the second direction, and the second conductive pattern 22, the third conductive pattern 23, the fourth conductive pattern 24, the fifth conductive pattern 25 and the sixth conductive pattern 26 are coupled in sequence, the second conductive pattern 22, the third conductive pattern 23, the fourth conductive pattern 24, the fifth conductive pattern 25 and the sixth conductive pattern 26 can be formed into a first groove structure, and the opening of the first groove structure is directed toward the first test signal line 1. The first groove structure can form the first accommodating space 81 between the first test signal line 1. When laying out the first test unit, the first test unit can be laid out in the first accommodating space 81 to reduce the layout space occupied by the entire test circuit.

[0098] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, each of the test circuits further includes: a second test sub-circuit CT2, wherein the second test sub-circuit CT2 includes:

[0099] A third test unit, wherein the orthographic projection of the third test unit on the substrate of the display substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the first test signal line 1 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the second test signal line 2 on the substrate; the output end of the third test unit is respectively coupled to the first test signal line 1 and the second test signal line 2, for simultaneously outputting the same functional test signal to the first test signal line 1 and the second test signal line 2.

[0100] Specifically, the working process of the third test unit of the above structure is as follows:

[0101] In the same test period, the third test unit writes the same functional test signal to the first test signal line 1 and the second test signal line 2 respectively. Taking the high level of the functional test signal as an example, when the functional test signal is written into the display area of ​​the display substrate, the display area normally displays a black screen. If there is an abnormality in the display area (such as a signal line disconnection), a low level appears at the abnormal position, causing the pixel corresponding to the abnormal position to light up, and an abnormal bright spot appears in the display area. According to the position of the abnormal bright spot, the abnormal position of the display substrate can be determined.

[0102] The third test unit can detect whether there are abnormal conditions such as broken wires or poor contact in the display substrate.

[0103] like Figure 2 and Figure 3aAs shown, in some embodiments, the second test signal line 2 includes: an eighth conductive pattern 28, a ninth conductive pattern 29, a tenth conductive pattern 30 and an eleventh conductive pattern 31 coupled in sequence;

[0104] The first part of the second test signal line 2 includes: an eighth conductive pattern 28 and a tenth conductive pattern 30, and the second part of the second test signal line 2 includes: a ninth conductive pattern 29 and an eleventh conductive pattern 31;

[0105] The eighth conductive pattern 28 , the ninth conductive pattern 29 , the tenth conductive pattern 30 and the first test signal line 1 together define a third accommodation space, and at least a portion of the third test unit is located in the third accommodation space.

[0106] Specifically, since the eighth conductive pattern 28 and the tenth conductive pattern 30 extend along the first direction, the ninth conductive pattern 29 extends along the second direction, and the eighth conductive pattern 28, the ninth conductive pattern 29 and the tenth conductive pattern 30 are coupled in sequence, the eighth conductive pattern 28, the ninth conductive pattern 29 and the tenth conductive pattern 30 can be formed into a third groove structure, and the opening of the third groove structure is directed toward the first test signal line 1. The third groove structure can form the third accommodating space 83 between the first test signal line 1. When laying out the third test unit, the third test unit can be laid out in the third accommodating space 83 to reduce the layout space occupied by the entire test circuit.

[0107] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the plurality of test signal lines further include a third test signal line 3 and a fourth test signal line 4, the third test signal line 3 includes a third portion extending along the first direction and a fourth portion extending along the second direction, and the fourth test signal line 4 extends along the second direction;

[0108] The width of the third portion of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the first direction is different from the width of the fourth test signal line 4 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction is different from the width of the fourth test signal line 4 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction;

[0109] The resistance difference between any two of the first test signal line 1 , the second test signal line 2 , the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 is smaller than the first threshold.

[0110] Specifically, the multiple test signal lines in each of the test circuits may also include a third test signal line 3 and a fourth test signal line 4 of different shapes, wherein the fourth test signal line 4 extends along a second direction, and the second direction may be the same as the extension direction of the data line in the display substrate, but is not limited to this; the third test signal line 3 may include a third part extending along the first direction and a fourth part extending along the second direction, and the first direction may include multiple directions intersecting with the second direction, such as: the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction; or the angle between the first direction and the second direction is less than 90 degrees.

[0111] By adjusting the width of the fourth test signal line 4 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the width of the third portion of the third test signal line 3 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the width of the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 and the resistance of the third test signal line 3 are adjusted, so that the difference between the resistance of the third test signal line 3 and the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 is less than a first threshold value. Exemplarily, the first threshold value is 1Ω.

[0112] It should be noted that the resistance difference between any two test signal lines among the first test signal line 1, the second test signal line 2, the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 is less than the first threshold, that is, the resistance of the first test signal line 1, the resistance of the second test signal line 2, the resistance of the third test signal line 3 and the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 are essentially equal.

[0113] In the display substrate provided by the above embodiment, by setting the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction to be different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction is different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; and the width of the third part of the third test signal line 3 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction is different from the width of the fourth test signal line 4 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction is different from the width of the fourth test signal line 4 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; so that the resistance difference between any two test signal lines among the first test signal line 1, the second test signal line 2, the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 is less than the first threshold value, so that the voltage drop difference of each test signal line in the test circuit is small, when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product has high uniformity, which effectively improves the accuracy of the display product test.

[0114] like Figure 2 and Figure 3b As shown, in some embodiments, the width h6 of the third portion of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the first direction can be set to be smaller than the width h3 of the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width h4 of the fourth test signal line 4 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to be smaller than the width h3 of the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction.

[0115] Specifically, the total lengths of the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 in the second direction may be set to be the same. Since the fourth test signal line 4 extends along the second direction, that is, it only includes a portion extending along the second direction, and the third test signal line 3 includes a third portion extending along the first direction and a fourth portion extending along the second direction, the routing stroke of the third test signal line 3 is greater than the routing stroke of the fourth test signal line 4. In this way, when setting the line widths of the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4, the third portion of the third test signal line 3 may be set to extend in a direction perpendicular to the first direction. The width of the fourth test signal line 4 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction is smaller than the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction, so that the difference between the resistance of the third test signal line 3 and the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 is smaller than the first threshold value, so that the voltage drop difference of each test signal line is smaller, and when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product has higher uniformity, which effectively improves the accuracy of the display product test.

[0116] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the width h1 of the first test signal line 1 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to be equal to the width h4 of the fourth test signal line 4 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width h2 of the second part of the second test signal line 2 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction, and the width h3 of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction are both greater than the width h1 of the first test signal line 1 along the direction perpendicular to the second direction.

[0117] Specifically, the above-mentioned setting method makes the resistance value of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance value of the fourth test signal line 4 basically consistent, and because the routing distance of the second test signal line 2 and the third test signal line 3 is greater than the routing distance of the first test signal line 1 and the fourth test signal line 4, by setting the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 along the second direction perpendicular to the second direction, and the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 along the second direction perpendicular to the second direction, both are greater than the width of the first test signal line 1 along the second direction perpendicular to the second direction, the resistance value of the second test signal line 2 and the third test signal line 3 is closer to the resistance value of the first test signal line 1, which is more conducive to achieving the uniformity of the resistance value of each test signal line in the test circuit.

[0118] It can be seen that when setting the line widths of the first test signal line 1, the second test signal line 2, the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line in the above manner, it is only necessary to consider the routing distance of the third test signal line 3, the fourth test signal line 4, and the routing distance of one of the first test signal line 1 and the fourth test signal line 4, which is more conducive to achieving a resistance difference between each test signal line that is less than the first threshold.

[0119] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, each of the test circuits further includes: a first test sub-circuit CT1, wherein the first test sub-circuit CT1 includes:

[0120] a fourth test unit, wherein the orthographic projection of the fourth test unit on the substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the second test signal line 2 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the third test signal line 3 on the substrate; an output end of the fourth test unit is coupled to the third test signal line 3, and is used to output the first picture test signal and the second picture test signal to the third test signal line 3 in a time-sharing manner;

[0121] A fifth test unit, the orthographic projection of the fifth test unit on the substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the third test signal line 3 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the fourth test signal line 4 on the substrate; the output end of the fifth test unit is coupled to the fourth test signal line 4, for outputting a third picture test signal to the fourth test signal line 4.

[0122] Each of the test circuits further comprises: a second test sub-circuit CT2, wherein the second test sub-circuit CT2 comprises:

[0123] A sixth test unit, the orthographic projection of the sixth test unit on the substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the third test signal line 3 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the fourth test signal line 4 on the substrate; the output end of the sixth test unit is respectively coupled to the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4, for simultaneously outputting the same functional test signal to the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4.

[0124] Specifically, the working process of the first test sub-circuit CT1 of the above structure is as follows:

[0125] In the first test period, the fourth test unit writes a first picture test signal to the third test signal line 3, and the fifth test unit writes a third picture test signal to the fourth test signal line 4, so as to implement a first picture test on the display substrate.

[0126] In the second test period, the fourth test unit writes a second picture test signal to the third test signal line 3, and the fifth test unit writes a third picture test signal to the fourth test signal line 4, so as to implement a second picture test on the display substrate.

[0127] Exemplarily, the first picture test signal includes a blue pixel test signal, the second picture test signal includes a red pixel test signal, and the third picture test signal includes a green pixel test signal. During the first test period, a GB picture test is performed on the display substrate, and during the second test period, a GR picture test is performed on the display substrate.

[0128] The fourth test unit and the fifth test unit of the above structure can perform display screen tests of different screens on the display substrate in a time-sharing manner, thereby achieving more accurate detection of the display performance of the display substrate.

[0129] The working process of the sixth test unit of the above structure is as follows:

[0130] In the same test period, the sixth test unit writes the same functional test signal to the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 respectively. Taking the high level of the functional test signal as an example, when the functional test signal is written into the display area of ​​the display substrate, the display area normally displays a black screen. If there is an abnormality in the display area (such as a signal line disconnection), a low level appears at the abnormal position, causing the pixel corresponding to the abnormal position to light up, and an abnormal bright spot appears in the display area. According to the position of the abnormal bright spot, the abnormal position of the display substrate can be determined.

[0131] The sixth test unit can detect whether there are abnormal conditions such as broken wires or poor contact in the display substrate.

[0132] like Figure 2 and Figure 3b As shown, in some embodiments, the third test signal line 3 includes a twelfth conductive pattern 32, a thirteenth conductive pattern 33, a fourteenth conductive pattern 34, a fifteenth conductive pattern 35, a sixteenth conductive pattern 36 and a seventeenth conductive pattern 37 coupled in sequence;

[0133] The third portion of the third test signal line 3 includes a thirteenth conductive pattern 33, a fifteenth conductive pattern 35 and a seventeenth conductive pattern 37, and the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 includes a twelfth conductive pattern 32, a fourteenth conductive pattern 34 and a sixteenth conductive pattern 36;

[0134] The fifteenth conductive pattern 35 , the sixteenth conductive pattern 36 , and the seventeenth conductive pattern 37 together with the second test signal line 2 define a second accommodation space 82 , and at least a portion of the second test unit is located in the second accommodation space 82 .

[0135] Specifically, since the fifteenth conductive pattern 35 and the seventeenth conductive pattern 37 extend along the first direction, the sixteenth conductive pattern 36 extends along the second direction, and the fifteenth conductive pattern 35, the sixteenth conductive pattern 36 and the seventeenth conductive pattern 37 are coupled in sequence, the fifteenth conductive pattern 35, the sixteenth conductive pattern 36 and the seventeenth conductive pattern 37 can be formed into a second groove structure, and the opening of the second groove structure is directed toward the second test signal line 2. The second groove structure can form the second accommodating space 82 between the second test signal line 2. When laying out the second test unit, the second test unit can be laid out in the second accommodating space 82 to reduce the layout space occupied by the entire test circuit.

[0136] like Figure 2 and Figure 3b As shown, in some embodiments, the thirteenth conductive pattern 33, the fourteenth conductive pattern 34, the fifteenth conductive pattern 35 and the fourth test signal line 4 jointly define a fifth accommodation space 85, and at least part of the fifth test unit is located in the fifth accommodation space 85;

[0137] Along the second direction, the fifth accommodating space 85 is located between the first accommodating space 81 and the second accommodating space 82 , and the fourth testing unit is located on a side of the first accommodating space 81 away from the fifth accommodating space 85 .

[0138] Specifically, since the thirteenth conductive pattern 33 and the fifteenth conductive pattern 35 extend along the first direction, the fourteenth conductive pattern 34 extends along the second direction, and the thirteenth conductive pattern 33, the fourteenth conductive pattern 34 and the fifteenth conductive pattern 35 are coupled in sequence, the thirteenth conductive pattern 33, the fourteenth conductive pattern 34 and the fifteenth conductive pattern 35 can be formed into a fifth groove structure, and the opening of the fifth groove structure is directed toward the fourth test signal line 4. The fifth groove structure can form the fifth accommodating space 85 between the fourth test signal line 4. When laying out the fifth test unit, the fifth test unit can be laid out in the fifth accommodating space 85 to reduce the layout space occupied by the entire test circuit.

[0139] In addition, the above-mentioned setting is along the second direction, the fifth accommodating space 85 is located between the first accommodating space 81 and the second accommodating space 82, and the fourth test unit is located on the side of the first accommodating space 81 away from the fifth accommodating space 85, so that along the second direction, the fourth test unit, the first test unit, the fifth test unit and the second test unit are arranged in sequence, thereby minimizing the layout space of the first test sub-circuit CT1 along the first direction.

[0140] like Figure 2 and Figure 3b As shown, in some embodiments, the third test signal line 3 includes an eighteenth conductive pattern 38, a nineteenth conductive pattern 39, and a twentieth conductive pattern 40 coupled in sequence;

[0141] The third portion of the third test signal line 3 includes the nineteenth conductive pattern 39, and the fourth portion of the third test signal line 3 includes the eighteenth conductive pattern 38 and the twentieth conductive pattern 40;

[0142] The nineteenth conductive pattern 39 , the twentieth conductive pattern 40 and the fourth test signal line 4 jointly define a sixth accommodation space 86 , and at least a portion of the sixth test unit is located in the sixth accommodation space 86 .

[0143] Specifically, since the nineteenth conductive pattern 39 extends along the first direction, the twentieth conductive pattern 40 extends along the second direction, and the nineteenth conductive pattern 39 and the twentieth conductive pattern 40 are coupled sequentially, the sixth accommodating space 86 can be formed between the nineteenth conductive pattern 39, the twentieth conductive pattern 40 and the fourth test signal line 4. When laying out the sixth test unit, the sixth test unit can be laid out in the sixth accommodating space 86 to reduce the layout space occupied by the entire test circuit.

[0144] In the display substrate provided in the above embodiment, the test circuit is formed as a double-row structure, which includes a row formed by the first test signal line 1, the second test signal line 2, the first test unit, the second test unit and the third test unit, and another row formed by the third test signal line 3, the fourth test signal line 4, the fourth test unit, the fifth test unit and the sixth test unit. The test circuit with this double-row structure can be further away from the bending area of ​​the display substrate during layout, so that when bending occurs in the bending area, the influence of the bending on the functional graphics in the test circuit can be reduced, thereby effectively improving the yield of the test circuit.

[0145] In order to more clearly illustrate the specific structure and width setting method of each test signal line included in the test circuit in the display substrate provided by the above embodiment, a specific embodiment is given below.

[0146] like Figure 2 As shown, in the display substrate provided by the above embodiment, the test circuit includes the first test signal line 1, the second test signal line 2, the third test signal line 3 and the fourth test signal line 4 which are arranged in sequence along the first direction; the test circuit includes a first corner area A, a second corner area B and a third corner area C, and the second test signal line 2 in the test circuit includes the first part and the second part in the first corner area A, the second corner area B and the third corner area C; the third test signal line 3 in the test circuit includes the third part and the fourth part in the second corner area B and the third corner area C.

[0147] When laying out the test signal lines in the test circuit, the first test signal line 1 and the third test signal line 3 may be laid out using the first gate metal layer, and the second test signal and the fourth test signal line 4 may be laid out using the second gate metal layer, which is more conducive to reducing the possibility of short circuits between adjacent test signal lines.

[0148] When performing uniform resistance compensation on each test signal line, width compensation can be performed on the first part of the second test signal line 2 located in the first corner area A, the second corner area B and the third corner area C, and width compensation can be performed on the second part of the third test signal line 3 in the second corner area B and the third corner area C.

[0149] In more detail, the width of the first test signal line 1 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set between 2.5μm and 3.5μm; the width of the fourth test signal line 4 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set between 2.5μm and 3.5μm; the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set between 3μm and 4μm, and the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction is smaller than the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set between 3.5μm and 4.5μm, and the width of the third part of the third test signal line 3 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction is smaller than the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction.

[0150] Exemplarily, the width of the first test signal line 1 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to 3μm, the width of the fourth test signal line 4 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to 3μm, the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to 3.5μm, and the width of the fourth part of the third test signal line 3 in the direction perpendicular to the second direction can be set to 4μm.

[0151] By compensating the line width of each test signal line, the resistance uniformity compensation of each test signal line is achieved. When each test signal line is set to adopt the above line width, the beneficial effects are as follows:

[0152] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 , as shown in Table 1 below, through resistance simulation calculation, before resistance uniformization compensation, the resistance of the first test signal line 1 is 176.78, the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is 188.75, the resistance of the third test signal line 3 is 190.36, and the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 is 176.36. Among these four test signal lines, the difference between the maximum resistance and the minimum resistance is 14Ω; after resistance uniformization compensation, the resistance of the first test signal line 1 is 176.78, the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is 176.09, the resistance of the third test signal line 3 is 176.68, and the resistance of the fourth test signal line 4 is 176.36. Among these four test signal lines, the difference between the maximum resistance and the minimum resistance is 0.69Ω.

[0153] Gate line 1 2 3 4 Δ(Max-Min) Before compensation(Ω) 176.78 188.75 190.36 176.36 14 After compensation(Ω) 176.78 176.09 176.68 176.36 0.69

[0154] Table 1

[0155] It can be seen from the obvious effect of the resistance change of the four test signal lines before and after compensation that there is a sudden change in the resistance between the four test signal lines before compensation, and the resistance change range is approximately between 170Ω and 190Ω, and the maximum resistance difference is approximately 14Ω. After compensation, the resistance relationship curve between the four signal lines is relatively smooth and the resistance fluctuation range is small, basically maintained at around 176Ω (176Ω is the core resistance of the test signal line, and each test signal line should be close to 176Ω). It should be noted that the Gate line in Table 1 represents the test signal line.

[0156] like Figure 1As shown, the layout of the first test sub-circuit CT1 and the second test sub-circuit CT2 are various. In some embodiments, the first test sub-circuit CT1 and the second test sub-circuit CT2 are arranged along the second direction, and the first test sub-circuit CT1 is located between the display area and the second test sub-circuit CT2, or the second test sub-circuit CT2 is located between the display area and the first test sub-circuit CT1.

[0157] Specifically, since the second test sub-circuit CT2 is generally connected to the multiplexer (MUX) in the display substrate, when the first test sub-circuit CT1 is set between the display area and the second test sub-circuit CT2, it is not only more convenient to couple the second test sub-circuit CT2 with the MUX, but also, when the display substrate is used to form a display module, the distance between the MUX and the antenna in the display module can be made farther, thereby effectively reducing the interference caused by the antenna to the MUX, making it easier to attach the absorbing material in the module process section, and also effectively reducing the signal interference caused by the antenna to the test circuit, thereby better improving the test efficiency and test accuracy of the test circuit to the display substrate.

[0158] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the test structure CT further includes: a first control signal line SW1, a second control signal line SW2, a third control signal line SW3, a fourth control signal line SW4, a fifth control signal line SW5, a sixth control signal line SW6 and a seventh control signal line SW7, all extending along the first direction; and a first test data line D1, a second test data line D2, a third test data line D3, a fourth test data line D4, a fifth test data line D5, a sixth test data line D6, a seventh test data line D7 and an eighth test data line D8, all extending along the first direction;

[0174] It should be noted that the sequence of the first test period, the second test period and the third test period can be set according to actual needs.

[0175] It is worth noting that Figure 2 As shown, when the test circuit adopts the above structure, the test circuit can be laid out using the following four film layers: an active layer, a first gate metal layer, a second gate metal layer and a source-drain metal layer are stacked in sequence in the direction away from the base of the display substrate; wherein the active layer is used to form the active layer of each of the transistors, the first gate metal layer is used to form the second test signal line 2, the fourth test signal line 4, the gate of each of the transistors and the first and second electrodes of some transistors; the second gate metal layer is used to form the first test signal line 1, the third test signal line 3 and the first and second electrodes of some transistors; the source-drain metal layer is used to form the first and second electrodes of some transistors, each of the control signal lines and each of the control signal lines.

[0176] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the display substrate further includes:

[0177] A plurality of data signal lines located in the display area, the data signal lines corresponding to the test signal lines one by one;

[0178] a plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the non-display area, wherein the first fan-out lines 7 correspond to the data signal lines one by one, and the data signal lines are coupled to the corresponding test signal lines through the corresponding first fan-out lines 7; the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 form a plurality of sub-fan-out areas arranged along the first direction, and each sub-fan-out area includes a plurality of the first fan-out lines 7;

[0179] A plurality of power signal line patterns, each of which has an orthographic projection on the substrate located between the orthographic projections of two adjacent sub-fan-out areas on the substrate, a plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located on the same side of the central axis 6 of the display substrate, have resistance values ​​gradually increasing in a direction approaching the central axis 6, a difference in resistance values ​​between any two adjacent first fan-out lines is less than a second threshold, and the central axis 6 extends in a direction parallel to the second direction.

[0180] Specifically, the display substrate further includes a plurality of data signal lines located in the display area. Exemplarily, the plurality of data signal lines all extend along the second direction, and the data signal lines correspond to the test signal lines one by one.

[0181] The display substrate further includes a plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the non-display area, the orthographic projections of the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 on the substrate are located between the orthographic projections of the display area on the substrate and the orthographic projections of the test circuit on the substrate, the first fan-out lines 7 correspond one-to-one with the data signal lines, one end of the first fan-out line 7 close to the display area is coupled to the corresponding data line, and one end of the first fan-out line 7 close to the test circuit is coupled to the corresponding test signal line. The first fan-out line 7 is used to transmit the test signal provided by the corresponding test signal line to the corresponding data line.

[0182] The plurality of first fan-out lines 7 may be divided into a plurality of sub-fan-out areas arranged along the first direction, and each of the sub-fan-out areas includes a plurality of first fan-out lines 7 .

[0183] The display substrate also includes a plurality of power signal line graphics 51, and the orthographic projection of each of the power signal line graphics 51 on the substrate is located between the orthographic projections of two adjacent sub-fan-out areas on the substrate, separating the two adjacent sub-fan-out areas (such as area D and area E); since the first fan-out line 7 cannot be arranged at the power signal line graphics 51, the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 cannot be evenly arranged at equal intervals, resulting in a problem of large resistance jumps of the first fan-out lines 7 on both sides of the power signal line graphics 51.

[0184] In the display substrate provided in the above embodiment, by setting a plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located on the same side of the central axis 6 of the display substrate, the resistance gradually increases in the direction close to the central axis 6, and the difference in resistance between any two adjacent first fan-out lines is less than the second threshold value, so that the resistance of the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 changes uniformly, avoiding the problem of large resistance jumps of the first fan-out lines 7 on both sides of the power signal line graph. It should be noted that the second threshold value can be set according to actual needs. For example, the second threshold value is between 0.5Ω and 10Ω, and may include an endpoint value.

[0185] It should be noted that the difference in resistance between any two adjacent first fan-out lines is less than the second threshold, that is, the resistances of any two adjacent first fan-out lines are essentially equal.

[0186] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, each of the first fan-out lines 7 includes: a first fan-out pattern 71 and a second fan-out pattern 72 coupled to each other, the first fan-out pattern 71 is located between the display area and the second fan-out pattern 72, the first fan-out pattern 71 extends along the second direction, the second fan-out pattern 72 extends along a third direction, and the third direction intersects with the second direction;

[0187] On the same side of the central axis 6, along the direction close to the central axis 6 of the display substrate, the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 included in the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the same sub-fan-out area gradually increases, and the width of the second fan-out pattern 72 included in the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the same sub-fan-out area is the same;

[0188] On the same side of the central axis 6, in two adjacent sub-fan-out areas, the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 farthest from the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area E close to the central axis 6 is greater than the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 closest to the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area D far from the central axis 6; the difference between the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 farthest from the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area E close to the central axis 6 and the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 closest to the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area D far from the central axis 6 is greater than a third threshold;

[0189] The width of the first fan-out pattern 71 is the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 perpendicular to the second direction; the width of the second fan-out pattern 72 is the width of the second fan-out pattern 72 perpendicular to the third direction.

[0190] Specifically, each of the first fan-out lines 7 includes: a third fan-out pattern 73, a first fan-out pattern 71 and a second fan-out pattern 72 coupled in sequence, the third fan-out pattern 73 and the first fan-out pattern 71 are made of the same layer and the same material, specifically, they can be made of the first gate metal layer and / or the second gate metal layer, the second fan-out pattern 72 and the power signal line pattern 51 are made of the same layer of source and drain metal layer; at the same time, the first fan-out pattern 71 can be set between the display area and the second fan-out pattern 72, the first fan-out pattern 71 extends along the second direction, the second fan-out pattern 72 extends along the third direction, the third direction intersects with the second direction, and exemplarily, the angle between the third direction and the second direction is less than 90 degrees.

[0191] Furthermore, the extension direction of the power signal line pattern can be set to be the same as the extension direction of the second fan-out pattern 72, and the orthographic projections of the power signal line pattern on the substrate are located in two adjacent sub-fan-out areas, and the second fan-out pattern 72 is between the orthographic projections on the substrate.

[0192] Since the second fan-out pattern 72 and the power signal line pattern 51 are both made of the same source and drain metal layer, the power signal line pattern 51 will block the adjacent sub-fan-out areas, making it impossible for the first fan-out lines 7 to be evenly arranged at equal intervals, and the routing distance of the first fan-out lines 7 cannot be evenly increased, resulting in a large jump in the resistance value of the first fan-out lines 7 located on the left and right sides of the power signal line pattern 51.

[0193] The above-mentioned arrangement is performed on the same side of the central axis 6, along the direction close to the central axis 6 of the display substrate, the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 included in the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the same sub-fan-out area gradually increases, and the width of the second fan-out pattern 72 included in the plurality of first fan-out lines 7 located in the same sub-fan-out area is the same; on the same side of the central axis 6, in two adjacent sub-fan-out areas, the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 farthest from the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area E close to the central axis 6 is greater than the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 in the sub-fan-out area D far from the central axis 6, which is closest to the central axis 6. The width of a fan-out pattern 71; the difference between the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 farthest from the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area E close to the central axis 6 and the width of the first fan-out pattern 71 closest to the central axis 6 in the sub-fan-out area D far from the central axis 6 is greater than a third threshold; it is possible to achieve that on the same side of the central axis 6, along the direction close to the central axis 6 of the display substrate, the resistance of all the first fan-out lines 7 included in the display substrate gradually increases, so that the resistance of the multiple first fan-out lines 7 changes evenly, avoiding the problem of large resistance jumps in the first fan-out lines 7 on both sides of the power signal line pattern.

[0194] Therefore, in the display substrate provided in the above embodiment, the resistance value of the first fan-out line 7 is compensated by adjusting the width of the second fan-out pattern 72, so that the test signal line in the test circuit and the first fan-out line 7 connected between the data line and the test signal line have good resistance uniformity, thereby greatly improving the accuracy of the test circuit's test of the display substrate and better ensuring the production yield of the display substrate.

[0195] It should be noted that the value range of the third threshold can satisfy the requirement that the difference in resistance between any two adjacent first fan-out lines is less than the second threshold.

[0196] In more detail, Figure 8 and Fig. 9As shown in Table 2 below, before compensation, due to the obstruction of the power signal line pattern, the average resistance value of the first fan-out line 7 in the D area to the average resistance value of the first fan-out line 7 in the E area has a large jump, such as: the average resistance value of the D area is 3502Ω, the average resistance value of the E area is 3549Ω, and the average resistance value jump from the D area to the first fan-out line 7 in the E area is close to 50Ω, and the resistance change is 1.34%;

[0197] Through calculation simulation, after using width uniformization compensation, there is a small jump from the average resistance value of the first fan-out line 7 in area D to the average resistance value of the first fan-out line 7 in area E, such as: the average resistance value in area D is 3340Ω, and the average resistance value in area E is 3348Ω; the change between resistance traces after uniformization compensation is relatively smooth, and the change is about 0.24% (the core point of the change).

[0198] D E Δ Δ / D Before compensation(Ω) 3502 3549 47 1.34% After compensation(Ω) 3340 3348 8 0.24%

[0199] Table 2

[0200] It should be noted that the display substrate may further include an intermediate power signal line pattern 52 located at the central axis 6. Since the first fan-out lines 7 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the central axis 6, the routing distance of the first fan-out lines 7 in the fan-out sub-areas (i.e., F areas) adjacent to the left and right sides of the intermediate power signal line pattern 52 and the width of the second fan-out pattern 72 included therein are the same, so that the average resistance values ​​of the first fan-out lines 7 in the fan-out sub-areas adjacent to the left and right sides of the intermediate power signal line pattern 52 are basically the same, and no large jumps occur.

[0201] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a display device, comprising the display substrate provided by the above embodiment.

[0202] Due to the display substrate provided by the above embodiment, by setting the width of the first part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction to be different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction; and the width of the second part of the second test signal line 2 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction to be different from the width of the first test signal line 1 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is smaller than the first threshold value, so that the voltage drop difference of each test signal line is smaller, when the same test signal is provided to the display area of ​​the display product through the test circuit, the test signal received by the display area of ​​the display product has higher uniformity, which effectively improves the accuracy of the display product testing.

[0203] Therefore, when the display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes the display substrate provided by the above embodiment, it also has the above beneficial effects, which will not be described in detail here.

[0204] It should be noted that the display device may be any product or component with a display function, such as a television, a monitor, a digital photo frame, a mobile phone, and a tablet computer.

[0210] It should be noted that the first threshold value can be set according to actual needs, and illustratively, the first threshold value is 1Ω. In addition, the difference between the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 is less than the first threshold value, that is, the resistance of the first test signal line 1 and the resistance of the second test signal line 2 are essentially equal.
