[0051] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present disclosure. And, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the present disclosure can be combined with each other. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0052] Unless otherwise defined, technical terms or scientific terms used in this disclosure shall have the ordinary meanings as understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. The "first", "second" and similar terms used in this disclosure do not denote any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. Words such as "including" or "comprising" mean that the elements or objects appearing before this word cover the elements or objects listed after this word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Words such as "connected" or "coupled" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.

[0053] It should be noted that the sizes and shapes of the figures in the drawings do not reflect the true proportions, and the purpose is only to schematically illustrate the content of this disclosure. Also, the same or similar reference numerals throughout indicate the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions.

[0054] In order to improve the integration of the display panel, a photoelectric detection circuit for optical fingerprint recognition can be integrated within the display panel, so that the fingerprint recognition function can be implemented in the display area. However, due to the unstable threshold voltage of the current photoelectric detection circuit, the circuit noise is large and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is relatively low (for example, at a four-fold gain, the SNR is 12.6 dB), resulting in a relatively blurred fingerprint picture and reducing the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.

[0055] As Figure 1 shown, the photoelectric detection circuit provided by an embodiment of this disclosure includes:

[0056] A photoelectric conversion device 10, configured to convert a received optical signal into an electrical signal;

[0057] A drive control circuit 20, coupled to the photoelectric conversion device 10, configured to generate a detection current according to the signal of the detection control signal terminal CS and the electrical signal converted by the photoelectric conversion device 10;

[0058] An output control circuit 30, coupled to the drive control circuit 20, configured to output the detection current to the detection terminal VO in response to the signal of the detection scan signal terminal GA.

[0059] The photoelectric detection circuit provided by an embodiment of this disclosure, through the mutual cooperation of the drive control circuit and the output control circuit, can generate an amplified detection current according to the electrical signal converted by the photoelectric conversion device, thereby improving the clarity of the obtained fingerprint picture and further improving the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.

[0060] In some embodiments of this disclosure, as Figure 2As shown, the drive control circuit 20 may include: a control circuit 21 and a drive circuit 22; wherein, the control circuit 21 is coupled to the first conversion electrode of the photoelectric conversion device 10, and the drive circuit is coupled to the first conversion electrode of the photoelectric conversion device 10. Moreover, the control circuit 21 is configured to pull down the voltage of the first conversion electrode in response to the signal of the detection control signal terminal CS. The drive circuit 22 is coupled to the first conversion electrode of the photoelectric conversion device 10 and is configured to perform threshold compensation in response to the signal of the detection compensation signal terminal RA and generate a detection current according to the electrical signal.

[0061] The photoelectric detection circuit provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve threshold compensation through the mutual cooperation of the control circuit, the drive circuit, and the output control circuit, avoiding the problem of large circuit noise caused by unstable threshold voltage, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio, enhancing the clarity of the obtained fingerprint image, and further improving the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 3 shown, the second conversion electrode of the photoelectric conversion device 10 is coupled to the second power supply terminal ELVSS. Exemplarily, the first conversion electrode may be the positive electrode, and the second conversion electrode may be the negative electrode. Exemplarily, the photoelectric conversion device 10 may be set as a photodiode. For example, Figure 3 shown, the photoelectric conversion device 10 may be set as an organic photodiode OPD. Especially for the organic photodiode, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a control circuit and a drive circuit are provided, which can amplify the electrical signal converted by the organic photodiode and output it to the detection chip for fingerprint detection and recognition. Moreover, since the drive circuit can achieve threshold voltage compensation, avoiding the problem of large circuit noise caused by unstable threshold voltage, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio, enhancing the clarity of the obtained fingerprint image, and further improving the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 3 shown, the control circuit 21 may include: a capacitor C0; wherein, the first electrode plate of the capacitor C0 is coupled to the detection control signal terminal CS, and the second electrode plate of the capacitor C0 is coupled to the first conversion electrode.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 3As shown, the driving circuit 22 may include: a detection driving transistor M1 and a detection compensation transistor M2; wherein, the gate of the detection driving transistor M1 is coupled to the first conversion electrode, the first pole of the detection driving transistor M1 is coupled to the first power supply terminal VDD, and the second pole of the detection driving transistor M1 is coupled to the output control circuit 30. Further, the gate of the detection compensation transistor M2 is coupled to the detection compensation signal terminal RA, the first pole of the detection compensation transistor M2 is coupled to the first pole of the detection driving transistor M1, and the second pole of the detection compensation transistor M2 is coupled to the second pole of the detection driving transistor M1. Exemplarily, the detection driving transistor M1 may be set as a P-type transistor or an N-type transistor. The detection compensation transistor M2 may be set as a P-type transistor or an N-type transistor.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 3 shown, the output control circuit 30 may include: a detection scanning transistor M3; wherein, the gate of the detection scanning transistor M3 is coupled to the detection scanning signal terminal GA, the first pole of the detection scanning transistor M3 is coupled to the driving circuit, and the second pole of the detection scanning transistor M3 is coupled to the detection terminal VO. Exemplarily, the detection scanning transistor M3 may be set as a P-type transistor or an N-type transistor.

[0066] Furthermore, in specific implementation, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the P-type transistor is cut off under the action of a high-level signal and conducts under the action of a low-level signal. The N-type transistor conducts under the action of a high-level signal and is cut off under the action of a low-level signal.

[0067] It should be noted that the transistors mentioned in the above embodiments of the present disclosure may be low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) transistors or metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOS), which are not limited herein.

[0068] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 3 shown, the detection compensation transistor M2 may be set as an N-type transistor and set as a MOS transistor, so as to reduce the influence of leakage current on the gate voltage of the detection driving transistor M1. The detection driving transistor M1 and the detection scanning transistor M3 may be set as P-type transistors and both set as LTPS, so as to improve the mobility and can be made thinner, smaller, and lower in power consumption, etc. This can further improve the signal-to-noise ratio, improve the clarity of the obtained fingerprint image, and further improve the accuracy of fingerprint recognition.

[0069] In a specific implementation, according to the type of the transistor and the signal of its gate, the first pole of the transistor can be used as its source, and the second pole as its drain; or vice versa, the first pole of the transistor can be used as its drain, and the second pole as its source. This can be designed and determined according to the actual application environment, and no specific distinction is made here.

[0070] In a specific implementation, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the voltage Vdd of the first power supply terminal VDD can be a positive value, and the voltage Vss of the second power supply terminal ELVSS can be a negative value (e.g., -2.4V). In actual applications, the specific values of the voltage Vdd of the first power supply terminal VDD and the voltage Vss of the second power supply terminal ELVSS can be designed and determined according to the actual application environment, and are not limited herein.

[0071] The embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a driving method for the above-mentioned photoelectric detection circuit, as Figure 4 shown, which may include the following steps:

[0072] S100, the first stage, a signal with a first voltage is loaded on the detection control signal terminal.

[0073] S200, the second stage, a signal with a second voltage is loaded on the detection control signal terminal. The photoelectric conversion device converts the received optical signal into an electrical signal. The driving control circuit receives the electrical signal and generates a detection current according to the electrical signal; the output control circuit responds to the signal on the detection scanning signal terminal and outputs the detection current to the detection terminal. Among them, the first voltage is greater than the second voltage.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first stage may include: a reset compensation stage. Among them, in the reset compensation stage, a signal with a first level is loaded on the detection compensation signal terminal, a signal with a first level is loaded on the detection scanning signal line, and a signal with a first voltage is loaded on the detection control signal terminal.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second stage may include: a conversion stage and an output stage. Among them, in the conversion stage, a signal with a second level can be loaded on the detection compensation signal terminal, a signal with a first level can be loaded on the detection scanning signal line, and a signal with a second voltage can be loaded on the detection control signal terminal. In the output stage, a signal with a second level can be loaded on the detection compensation signal terminal, a signal with a second level can be loaded on the detection scanning signal line, and a signal with a second voltage can be loaded on the detection control signal terminal.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the voltage value of the signal with the first level loaded on the detection control signal terminal is greater than the voltage value of the signal with the second level loaded on the detection control signal terminal. Exemplarily, there may be a formula: Vdd + Vth - (Vcs1 - Vcs2) < Vss, where Vth represents the threshold voltage of the detection driving transistor (for example, it can be -1.5V), Vcs1 represents the voltage value of the first voltage of the signal loaded on the detection control signal terminal, and Vcs2 represents the voltage value of the second voltage of the signal loaded on the detection control signal terminal. In practical applications, the specific voltage values of the above signals can be determined according to the requirements of practical applications, and are not limited herein.

[0077] Taking the Figure 3 driving circuit shown below as an example, in combination with the Figure 5 circuit timing diagram shown below, the working process of the above photoelectric detection circuit provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described. As Figure 5 shown, ra represents the signal of the compensation scanning signal terminal, ga represents the signal of the detection scanning signal terminal GA, and cs represents the signal of the detection control signal terminal CS. Moreover, the working process of a photoelectric detection circuit 111 in a display frame F0 may include: a first stage T10 and a second stage T20. Among them, the first stage T10 includes a reset compensation stage T11. The second stage T20 includes a conversion stage T21 and an output stage T22.

[0078] In the reset compensation stage T11, the detection scanning transistor M3 is cut off under the control of the high-level signal of ga. The detection compensation transistor M2 is turned on under the control of the high-level signal of the signal ra, so that the detection driving transistor M1 can form a diode mode, thereby enabling the voltage Vdd of the first power supply terminal VDD to reset the gate and the second pole of the detection driving transistor M1, and making the voltage of the second electrode plate of the capacitor be Vdd. A signal cs with a first voltage Vcs1 is loaded on the detection control signal terminal CS, so that the voltage of the first electrode plate of the capacitor is the first voltage Vcs1. Since the voltage of the first conversion electrode of the organic photodiode OPD is higher than the voltage of the second conversion electrode, a forward current can be formed in the organic photodiode OPD.

[0079] In the conversion stage T21, the compensation transistor is turned off under the control of the low-level signal of signal ra. The detection scan transistor M3 is turned off under the control of the high-level signal of ga. A signal cs with a second voltage Vcs2 is loaded onto the detection control signal terminal CS, so that the voltage of the first electrode plate of the capacitor jumps from the first voltage Vcs1 to the second voltage Vcs2. Due to the effect of the capacitor, the voltage of the second electrode plate of the capacitor can jump from Vdd + Vth to Vdd + Vth - (Vcs1 - Vcs2). Since Vdd + Vth - (Vcs1 - Vcs2) < Vss, an inverse current can be generated in the organic optoelectronic diode OPD. When the organic optoelectronic diode OPD is illuminated, a photocurrent can be generated, and this photocurrent can flow into the gate of the detection driving transistor M1, so that the gate voltage of the detection driving transistor M1 changes to Vdd + Vth - (Vcs1 - Vcs2) + ΔV, so that the detection driving transistor M1 operates in the amplification region, thereby generating a detection current IS. And, IS = K[Vdd + Vth - (Vcs1 - Vcs2) + ΔV - Vdd - Vth] 2 = K[-(Vcs1 - Vcs2) + ΔV] 2 . Wherein, K represents the structural parameter of the detection driving transistor M1. ΔV represents the voltage formed after the photocurrent flows into the gate of the detection driving transistor M1.

[0080] In the output stage T22, the compensation transistor is turned off under the control of the low-level signal of signal ra. The detection scan transistor M3 is turned on under the control of the low-level signal of ga, so that the detection current IS can be output to the detection terminal VO.

[0081] It should be noted that, as can be seen from the formula satisfied by the detection current IS, the detection current IS is independent of the threshold voltage of the detection driving transistor M1, so that the problem of unclear fingerprint images caused by unstable threshold voltages can be avoided, and thus the accuracy of fingerprint detection and recognition can be improved.

[0082] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a display panel, including the above-mentioned optoelectronic detection circuit provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. Exemplarily, as Figure 6 shown in Figure 7 , the display panel further includes a substrate 100, and a plurality of optoelectronic detection units 110 and a plurality of light-emitting sub-pixels SPX located in the display area of the substrate 100; wherein, the orthographic projection of the light-emitting sub-pixel SPX on the substrate 100 and the orthographic projection of the optoelectronic detection unit 110 on the substrate 100 do not overlap. And, the light-emitting sub-pixel SPX includes a light-emitting device, and the optoelectronic detection unit 110 includes an optoelectronic detection circuit 111. In this way, fingerprint detection and recognition can be realized in the display area of the display panel.

In this way, there is no need to add additional preparation of the second conversion electrode 1112, and only through one patterning process, the patterns of the second conversion electrode 1112 and the second light-emitting electrode 2112 can be formed, which can simplify the preparation process, save production costs, and improve production efficiency. Further, the second conversion electrodes and the second light-emitting electrodes 2112 may form an integral structure over the entire surface. That is, a conductive layer disposed over the entire surface serves both as the second light-emitting electrode 2112 and as the second conversion electrode.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 7As shown, the optoelectronic conversion device 10 may further include an organic optoelectronic conversion layer 1113 located between the first conversion electrode 1111 and the second conversion electrode 1112.

In this way, there is no need to additionally prepare the gates of the transistors 1114 in the photodetector circuit 111. Only one lithography process is required to form the patterns of the gates of the transistors 2114 in the driving circuit and the gates of the transistors 1114 in the photodetector circuit 111, which can simplify the manufacturing process, save production costs, and improve production efficiency.

For example, the active layers of the transistors set as LTPS transistors in the electrical detection circuit are arranged on the same layer and made of the same material as the active layers of the transistors set as LTPS transistors in the driving circuit. The active layers of the transistors set as MOS transistors in the electrical detection circuit are arranged on the same layer and made of the same material as the active layers of the transistors set as MOS transistors in the driving circuit.
