[0227] exist Figure 2D In the layout of the gate drive circuit shown, the active layer of T9 and the active layer of T9 are formed by a continuous first semiconductor layer. The length of the first semiconductor layer in the first direction is small, so the vertical space of the entire shift register unit is small, which will cause the width of the shift register unit to be larger in the horizontal direction, which is not conducive to the close arrangement of the devices in the shift register unit in the horizontal direction, and is not conducive to the development of narrow borders of the display substrate.

E01 is arranged along the first direction, and E021 is arranged along the second direction. E01, E021, and E022 are coupled to each other, and the first direction and the second direction intersect. Figure 3A As shown, E01 is disposed between VGL and the output circuit, and E021 and E022 extend toward the display area along the second direction to provide light emitting control signals for the pixel circuits located in the display area.
[0232] For example, in Figure 3A In the layout shown, the first direction may be a vertical direction from top to bottom, and the second direction may be a horizontal direction from right to left, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0234] like Figure 1 and Figure 3A As shown, at least one embodiment of the shift register unit includes a first capacitor C1, an output capacitor C2, an output reset capacitor C3, an output transistor T10, an output reset transistor T9, a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a fourth transistor T4, a fifth transistor T5, a sixth transistor T6, a seventh transistor T7 and an eighth transistor T8; Figure 3A As shown, the output circuit O1 includes the output transistor T10 and the output reset transistor T9;

[0237] exist Figure 3A In the layout of the gate drive circuit shown, the active layer of T9 and the active layer of T10 can be formed by a continuous first semiconductor layer. The length of the first semiconductor layer in the first direction is increased, so that other devices included in the shift register unit can utilize the extra space in the vertical direction, narrowing the width of the shift register unit in the horizontal direction, which is beneficial to the close arrangement of the devices in the shift register unit in the horizontal direction and the development of a narrow frame of the display substrate.
[0238] like Figure 3A As shown, when the shift register unit of the above structure is arranged in the edge area of the display substrate, the second voltage signal line VGL, the first voltage signal line VGH, the first clock signal line CK, and the second clock signal line CB are arranged in sequence along the direction away from the display area of the display substrate; the second voltage signal line VGL, the first voltage signal line VGH, the first clock signal line CK, and the second clock signal line CB all extend along the first direction;

[0240] T1 includes a first active pattern, and the first active pattern of T1 is arranged to extend along the second direction. T1 is arranged between T8 and C1. T8, T1, and C1 are arranged in sequence along the first direction, so that T1 is arranged in the space between T8 and C1, so that T2 and T3 can be arranged more compactly (the second electrode D2 of the second transistor T2 is coupled to the second electrode D2 of the third transistor T3, so for the convenience of wiring, T2 and T3 also need to be arranged close to each other), which can further narrow the width of the shift register unit in the second direction;
[0241] And, in Figure 3A In the layout shown, the shape of C1 is more consistent with the arrangement of T1, T2 and T3, and the space between T1, T2 and T3 is used to set the plate of C1;
[0242] exist Figure 3A In the illustrated layout, the width of the second electrode plate C3b of C3 in the second direction is set to be smaller, and the length of the second electrode plate C3b of C3 in the first direction is set to be larger, so as to narrow the width of the electrode plate of C3 in the second direction while ensuring the area of the electrode plate of C3;

[0244] And, as Figure 3A and Figure 6 ( Figure 6 for Figure 3A As shown in FIG. 1 , the gate G6 of T6 includes a first gate pattern G61 and a second gate pattern G62 coupled to each other, so that T6 forms a dual-gate structure.
[0245] The purpose of the dual-gate structure design is that during the second phase P2, when the shift register unit included in the scan driver circuit outputs a high voltage signal Vgh, T10 should be completely turned off, and the high voltage input to the gate of T10 is from the source of T8. Therefore, during the second phase P2, T8 must be turned on, that is, the potential of the second node N2 must be low. In the second phase P2, the potential of the gate of T6 is high. To ensure that T6 does not leak and cause the potential of the second node N2 to increase, T6 is configured with a dual-gate design, making it easier to turn off.
[0246] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the first direction intersects with the second direction. For example, the first direction may be perpendicular to the second direction, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0247] Specifically, the angle between the second direction and the first direction can be set according to actual needs. For example, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.
[0248] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the position of the first clock signal line CB and the position of the second clock signal line CK may be swapped, but this is not limited to the above.

[0311] When manufacturing the first semiconductor layer 10, for example, a first semiconductor material layer can be formed first, and then after forming the gate G10 of the output transistor T10 and the gate G9 of the output reset transistor T9, the gate G10 of the output transistor T10 and the gate G9 of the output reset transistor T9 are used as masks to dope the portions of the first semiconductor material layer that are not covered by the gates of the transistors, so that the portions of the first semiconductor material layer that are not covered by the gates of the transistors are formed as the conductive portions, and the portions of the first semiconductor material layer that are covered by the transistors are formed as the channel portions.
[0312] According to the specific structure of the above-mentioned display substrate, it can be seen that in the display substrate described in at least one embodiment of the present invention, the output transistor T10 and the output reset transistor T9 in the shift register unit can be arranged along the first direction, thereby reducing the area occupied by the shift register unit in the second direction, thereby making the display substrate more in line with the development needs of narrow bezels.
