At the same time, the gate drive signal line Gate can be used to provide Figure 1The orthographic projection of the enable signal line EM on the substrate can extend along the first direction X and partially cover the orthographic projection of the fifth active portion 15 on the substrate and partially cover the orthographic projection of the sixth active portion 16 on the substrate. Part of the structure of the enable signal line EM forms the gate of the fifth transistor T5 and part of the structure forms the gate of the sixth transistor T6. At the same time, the enable signal line EM can provide Figure 1 The enable signal end in the substrate. The orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE on the substrate can extend along the first direction X and partially cover the fourth active portion 14, and a partial structure of the reset signal line RE forms the gate of the first transistor T1. The gate drive signal line Gate, the enable signal line EM, and the reset signal line RE in the pixel driving circuit of the same row are arranged in sequence along the second direction Y in the first conductive layer 20. Specifically, the orthographic projection of the gate drive signal line Gate on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the enable signal line EM on the substrate are located on both sides of the orthographic projection of the first conductive portion 21 on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE on the substrate is located on the side where the orthographic projection of the enable signal line EM on the substrate is away from the orthographic projection of the first conductive portion 21 on the substrate. At the same time, the reset signal line RE can be used to provide the pixel driving circuit of this row. Figure 1 The reset signal terminal Re1 in the upper row is provided to the pixel driving circuit Figure 1 The second reset signal terminal Re2 in the pixel driving circuit. In this exemplary embodiment, the reset signal lines RE in different rows of pixel driving circuits can be reused. The orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE of the previous row on the substrate covers the orthographic projection of the fourth sub-active portion 111 and the orthographic projection of the fifth sub-active portion 112 of this row on the substrate. Part of the structure of the reset signal line RE of the previous row forms the gate of the first transistor T1 of this row, and the orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE of the previous row on the substrate is located on the side of the orthographic projection of the gate drive signal line Gate of this row on the substrate away from the orthographic projection of the first conductive portion 21 of this row on the substrate; the orthographic projection of the second initial signal line of this row on the substrate is located on the side of the orthographic projection of the gate drive signal line Gate of this row on the substrate away from the orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE of the previous row on the substrate. By multiplexing the reset signal lines RE, the number of signal lines can be reduced and the structure of the display panel can be simplified. In this exemplary embodiment, the display panel can use the first conductive layer 20 as a mask to perform conductor processing on the active layer 10, that is, the active layer 10 covered by the first conductive layer 20 forms the channel region of the transistor, and the area not covered by the first conductive layer 20 forms a conductor structure.

[0056] It should be understood that when the orthographic projection of a structure on the substrate described in this exemplary embodiment extends in a certain direction, it can be understood that the orthographic projection of the structure on the substrate extends entirely in that direction, that is, the orthographic projection of the structure on the substrate can extend in a straight line or in a curved direction. Furthermore, when the orthographic projection of a structure A on the substrate described in this exemplary embodiment overlaps the orthographic projection of another structure B on the substrate, it can be understood that the outline of the projection of B on the substrate plane is completely within the outline of the projection of A on the same plane.

[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, in this exemplary embodiment, the second conductive layer 30 includes a third conductive portion 23. An opening 25 can be provided in the third conductive portion 23 to expose a portion of the second conductive portion 22 for connection to the first conductive portion 21. Exemplarily, the third conductive portion 23 can be provided with an opening 25, the orthographic projection of the opening 25 on the substrate being located on the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the first via connecting the first connecting portion and the second conductive portion on the substrate being located within the orthographic projection of the opening 25 on the substrate. This allows for electrical connection between the first conductive portion 21 and the second conductive portion 22. It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, the electrical connection between the first conductive portion 21 and the second conductive portion 22 can be achieved through other methods. The orthographic projection of the third conductive portion 23 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate, which can be understood as the orthographic projection of the third conductive portion 23 on the substrate covering the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate that is not directly opposite the opening 25. In this exemplary embodiment, in addition to the third conductive portion 23, the second conductive layer 30 may also include a first initial signal line Vinit1, a second initial signal line Vinit2, and a fourth conductive portion 24, wherein the orthographic projection of the first initial signal line Vinit1 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the second initial signal line Vinit2 on the substrate may both extend along a first direction X. In this exemplary embodiment, the first direction X may be a row direction, and the second direction Y may be a column direction. The orthographic projection of the second initial signal line Vinit2 in the pixel driving circuit of the current row on the substrate may be located between the orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE in the pixel driving circuit of the next row on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the enable signal line EM in the pixel driving circuit of the current row on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the first initial signal line Vinit1 in the pixel driving circuit of the current row on the substrate may be located between the orthographic projection of the reset signal line RE in the pixel driving circuit of the current row on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the second initial signal line Vinit2 in the pixel driving circuit of the previous row on the substrate. The second initial signal line Vinit2 can be connected to the seventh active portion 17 through the via H5, so that the second electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is connected to the second initial signal line Vinit2. Figure 10As shown, the orthographic projection of the first initial signal line Vinit1 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the sixth sub-active portion 113 on the substrate can both extend along the first direction X, and the orthographic projection of the first initial signal line Vinit1 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the sixth sub-active portion 113 on the substrate at least partially overlap (for example, the width of the first initial signal line Vinit1 in the second direction can be set to be greater than the width of the sixth sub-active portion 113 in the second direction), so that the first initial signal line Vinit1 can stabilize the voltage of the sixth sub-active portion 113, reduce the leakage current of the sixth sub-active portion 113 to the first transistor T1, and reduce the voltage fluctuation of the pixel driving circuit driving the transistor T3 during the light-emitting stage. Figure 4As shown, the fourth conductive portion 24 is connected to a stable voltage source. The fourth conductive portion 24 may include a third sub-conductive portion 241. The orthographic projection of the third sub-conductive portion 241 on the substrate may extend along the second direction Y. The orthographic projection of the third sub-conductive portion 241 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the third sub-active portion 123 on the substrate (for example, the width of the third sub-conductive portion 241 in the first direction may be set to be greater than the width of the third sub-active portion 123 in the first direction). The third sub-active portion 123 is a conductive structure, which is connected to form the second transistor T 2, and the orthographic projection of the third sub-active portion 123 on the substrate covers the orthographic projection of the third sub-active portion 123 on the substrate. Because the fourth conductive portion 24 is connected to a stable voltage source, the fourth conductive portion 24 can stabilize the third sub-active portion 123, thereby reducing the leakage of the second transistor T2 and preventing the influence of the pixel data voltage change of the adjacent column on the pixel, thereby reducing the voltage fluctuation of the pixel driving circuit driving the transistor T3 during the light-emitting stage, thereby improving the picture quality. The fourth conductive portion 24 may further include a fourth sub-conductive portion 242, the orthographic projection of the fourth sub-conductive portion 242 on the substrate at least partially overlapping with the orthographic projection of the eighth active portion 18 on the substrate (for example, the width of the fourth sub-conductive portion 242 in the first direction may be set to be greater than the width of the eighth active portion 18 in the first direction), so that the fourth sub-conductive portion 242 can form a voltage stabilizing effect on the eighth active portion 18, thereby eliminating or reducing the noise influence of the data signal line Vdata or other signal lines on the eighth active portion 18. Because the eighth active portion 18 is connected to the first electrode of the first transistor T1 and the gate of the driving transistor T3, the voltage stabilization of the eighth active portion 18 can reduce the voltage fluctuation of the driving transistor T3 of the pixel driving circuit during the light-emitting stage. In addition, the fourth conductive portion 24 may further include a fifth sub-conductive portion 243, which is connected to the fourth sub-conductive portion 242 to connect to a stable voltage source. The orthographic projection of the fifth sub-conductive portion 243 on the substrate may extend along the second direction Y. The orthographic projection of the fifth sub-conductive portion 243 on the substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the eighth active portion 18 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the data signal line Vdata on the substrate, thereby shielding the alternating voltage of the data signal line Vdata from interfering with the eighth active portion 18, thereby improving the voltage stabilizing effect of the fourth conductive portion 24 on the eighth active portion 18. In this exemplary embodiment, combined with Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10, the fourth conductive portion 24 can be connected to the first power line Vdd through the via H7 at the location of the fourth sub-conductive portion 242, so as to provide a stable voltage source for the fourth conductive portion 24 through the first power line Vdd. Of course, in other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, a stable voltage source can also be provided by other means. In addition, it should be understood that there is a conductive connection portion between the third sub-conductive portion 241 and the fourth sub-conductive portion 242.

In addition, in this exemplary embodiment, the third conductive layer 40 may include a first power line Vdd and a data signal line Vdata. The orthographic projection of the first power line Vdd on the base substrate and the orthographic projection of the data signal line Vdata on the base substrate may both extend along the second direction Y. The first power line Vdd may be used to provide Figure 1 The first power supply terminal shown, the data signal line Vdata can be used to provide Figure 1 The data signal end in the middle. The first power line Vdd can be connected to the third conductive part 23 through the via H6 to achieve electrical connection of the second electrode of the capacitor C to the first power line Vdd. The orthographic projection of the data signal line Vdata on the substrate can be located on the side of the orthographic projection of the first power line Vdd on the substrate away from the orthographic projection of the first conductive part 21 on the substrate. In this exemplary embodiment, the first connecting part 41 can be connected to the eighth active part 18 through the via H3, so that the first electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second electrode of the second transistor T2 are connected to the gate of the driving transistor T3. The first power line Vdd can be connected to the fourth conductive part 24 through the via H7 to provide a stable voltage source for the fourth conductive part 24. The first power line Vdd is connected to the third conductive part 23 through the via H6 to achieve electrical connection of the second plate of the capacitor C with the first power line Vdd. The first power line Vdd is connected to the fifth active part 15 through the via H10 to achieve connection of the fifth transistor T5 with the first power line Vdd. The data signal line Vdata may be connected to the fourth active portion 14 through the via H8 , so that the first electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is connected to the data signal line Vdata.

[0060] The following further describes the structure of the second conductive portion 22 and the third conductive portion 23 forming the capacitor C in the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The second conductive portion 22 is located in the first conductive layer 20, and the third conductive portion 23 is located in the second conductive layer 30. The second conductive portion 22 and the third conductive portion 23 are arranged opposite to each other to form a parallel plate capacitor structure. Figure 3-10As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate is distributed around the side of the orthographic projection of the first conductive portion 21 on the substrate; the third conductive portion 23 may include a first sub-conductive portion 231 and a second sub-conductive portion 232, wherein the orthographic projection of the first sub-conductive portion 231 on the substrate overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the second sub-conductive portion 232 on the substrate overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate, and the opening 25 is formed between the second sub-conductive portion 232 and the first sub-conductive portion 231. The orthographic projection of the third conductive portion 23 on the substrate may cover the orthographic projection of the portion of the second conductive portion 22 on the substrate that is not directly opposite the opening 25. The second conductive portion 22 may be a continuous structure, and the third conductive portion 23 includes two sub-conductive portions. The opening 25 formed between the two sub-conductive portions is used to expose a portion of the second conductive portion 22 for electrical connection to the first conductive portion 21 via the first connecting portion 41. The second conductive portion 22 is arranged adjacent to the first conductive portion 21 and distributed around part of the side of the first conductive portion 21. The two sub-conductive portions of the third conductive portion 23 are arranged opposite to the second conductive portion 22 to form a parallel plate capacitor. This structure can save the space occupied by the capacitor plate, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the display panel, thereby facilitating the improvement of the resolution of the display panel. It should be understood that if the display panel size allows and meets the PPI design requirements, the area of ​​the second conductive portion 22 can be increased as much as possible, and the area of ​​the third conductive portion 23 can be increased accordingly to increase the capacitance of the capacitor C. In this exemplary embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, the first conductive portion 21 is located between the gate drive signal line Gate and the enable signal line EM, and the second conductive portion 22 is distributed around the first conductive portion 21 and is located between the gate drive signal line Gate and the enable signal line EM. Further, the second conductive portion 22 is at least partially located between the gate drive signal line Gate and the first conductive portion 21. Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 9 As shown, the second conductive portion 22 can be distributed around one side and the other two adjacent sides of the first conductive portion 21. It should be understood that the second conductive portion 22 can be distributed around some sides of the first conductive portion 21 from different directions, such as Figure 12 As shown, they are distributed around part of the side of the first conductive portion 21, or as shown Figure 13 As shown, the first conductive portion 21 is only distributed on one side of one side, and the position of the third conductive portion 23 is adjusted accordingly, which all fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, in this exemplary embodiment, there is an opening 25 between the two sub-conductive parts of the third conductive part 23, the first sub-conductive part 231 and the second sub-conductive part 232 are separated by the opening 25, and the second via connecting the first conductive part 21 and the first connecting part is located in the opening 25. At this time, the opening 25 not only serves to expose part of the structure of the second conductive part 22, but also serves to electrically isolate the first sub-conductive part 231 from the second sub-conductive part 232. Figure 14 is a structural layout diagram of the second conductive layer according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the opening 25 can be as follows Figure 14 As shown, the opening 25 does not separate the first sub-conductive part 231 and the second sub-conductive part 232. The opening 25 only serves to expose part of the structure of the second conductive part 22, so that the second conductive part 22 can be connected to the first connecting part 41 through the first via hole, and then connected to the first conductive part 21. It should be understood that under this structure, the second via hole is insulated from the first sub-conductive part 231 and the second sub-conductive part 232.

For example, Figure 15 is a structural diagram of the second conductive layer according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, such as Figure 15 As shown, the first sub-conductive portion 231 of the first pixel driving circuit P1 is connected to the second sub-conductive portion 232 of the pixel driving circuit P0 adjacent to it on the left side in the row direction, and the second sub-conductive portion 232 of the first pixel driving circuit P1 is connected to the first sub-conductive portion of the pixel driving circuit P2 adjacent to it in the row direction. The same arrangement is performed on the third sub-conductive portion in each pixel driving circuit in turn, so that the third conductive portion 23 forms a mesh structure, thereby improving the voltage stability of the third conductive portion 23, reducing the influence of other signals (such as the voltage signal of the data signal line Vdata) on the voltage of the capacitor C, and improving the stability of the voltage of the capacitor C. In this exemplary embodiment, a via hole connected to the first power line Vdd can be provided at the position of the second sub-conductive portion 232 in each pixel driving circuit corresponding to the first power line Vdd, so that the two sub-conductive portions of the third conductive portion 23 in any pixel driving circuit are electrically connected to the first power line Vdd.

[0062] like Figure 4As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, two sub-conductive portions of the third conductive portion 23 may each be provided with an extension portion for connecting sub-conductive portions in the third conductive portion adjacent in the row direction. Exemplarily, in the same pixel driving circuit, a first extension portion 233 is provided on the side of the first sub-conductive portion 231 away from the second sub-conductive portion 232 along the first direction X, and a second extension portion 234 is provided on the side of the second sub-conductive portion 232 away from the first sub-conductive portion 231. The first extension portion 233 and the second extension portion 234 can extend along the first direction X, so that the second sub-conductive portion 232 of this column is electrically connected to the first extension portion 233 of the first sub-conductive portion 231 in the pixel driving circuit adjacent to the row direction through the second extension portion 234, and the first sub-conductive portion 231 of this column is electrically connected to the second extension portion 234 of the second sub-conductive portion 232 in the pixel driving circuit adjacent to the row direction through the first extension portion 233, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the first sub-conductive portion 231 of any pixel driving circuit and the second sub-conductive portion 232 in the pixel driving circuit adjacent to it in the row direction, so that the third conductive portion 23 forms a mesh structure. Of course, in other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, the first sub-conductive portion 231 of the pixel driving circuit of this column can be connected to the second sub-conductive portion 232 of the pixel driving circuit adjacent to the row direction through other structures, such as through via connections through other conductive layers, etc., which all fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

The second conductive part 22 is located between the gate drive signal line Gate and the enable signal line EM. The third conductive part 23 is arranged opposite to the second conductive part 22. Compared with Figure 3 The display panel structure shown in FIG. 1 increases the plate area of ​​the capacitor C provided by this exemplary embodiment.
