[0033] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a display panel 100 provided in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention is shown. From the figure, the various components of the first embodiment of the present invention and the relative positional relationship of the various components can be clearly seen.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the display panel 100 has a plurality of display units (110a and 110b), each display unit (110a and 110b) includes a light emitting device (111a and 111b) and a light sensing device (112a and 112b). Next, in combination with Figure 1 , each component in the display panel 100 is described in detail.
[0035] The light emitting devices (111a and 111b) in each display unit (110a and 110b) are used to cooperate with each other so that the display panel 100 has consistent upper display effect and lower display effect.
[0036] Specifically, in an embodiment according to the present invention, the light-emitting devices (111a and 111b) may be organic light emitting diodes (OLED) devices. Further, the display units (110a and 110b) may be sub-pixel units of light-emitting devices that only include one luminous color (for example, red or green or blue sub-pixel units, i.e., R or G or B), or the display units (110a and 110b) may also be a pixel unit composed of a plurality of sub-pixel units. Further, the display panel 100 is a transparent display panel (double-side display) that can emit light on both sides. Such a display panel 100 has a long service life and can generally be used in scenarios such as vehicles and commercial exhibitions.
[0037] The photosensitive devices (112a and 112b) are used to detect the light emitting brightness of the light emitting devices (111a and 111b). Specifically, the light emitting intensity of the light emitting devices (111a and 111b) determines the size of their light emitting brightness.
[0038] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, a detection circuit is usually set in the display panel to measure the current passing through the light-emitting device or the current passing through the thin film transistor (TFT) corresponding to the light-emitting device. Then, the brightness of the light-emitting device is calculated based on the detected current, and the brightness of the light-emitting device is compensated when necessary to solve the problem of uneven brightness of the display panel when displaying.
[0039] However, the inventors have found that the performance of the materials in the light-emitting device will gradually degrade with the increase of the use time, thereby causing the degradation of its light-emitting performance. Furthermore, when the same current value is passed through the light-emitting devices with different degrees of light-emitting performance degradation, their light-emitting degrees are not the same. Therefore, in these embodiments, the accuracy of the brightness compensation performed on the light-emitting devices in the display panel cannot be guaranteed, and therefore it cannot be guaranteed that the display panel can have uniform brightness when displaying pictures.
[0040] Now return to reference Figure 1Specifically, taking the display unit 110a as an example, in the embodiment according to the present invention, a photosensitive device 112a is added to the display unit 110a to detect the luminous brightness of the light-emitting device 111a. That is to say, what is obtained in the embodiment of the present invention is the actual luminous brightness of the light-emitting device 111a, rather than the theoretical luminous brightness calculated based on the current passing through the light-emitting device 111a. Therefore, the embodiment according to the present invention can ensure the accuracy of brightness compensation for the display panel 100.
[0041] It should also be noted that the inventors of the present case have further discovered that, since the display panel 100 in the embodiment of the present invention is a transparent display panel that can emit light on both sides, when only accurate brightness compensation is ensured for the display panel 100, it is still impossible to ensure that the display panel 100 can have uniform brightness when displaying images.
[0042] For example, if the upper display effect and the lower display effect of the display panel 100 are inconsistent, then when the display panel 100 needs to perform brightness compensation, the required upper display brightness compensation degree is not the same as the lower display brightness compensation degree. Under the premise of ensuring the cost of the display panel 100, the light-emitting devices (111a and 111b) provided in each display unit (110a and 110b) are configured to enable the display panel 100 to have both the upper display effect and the lower display effect in the corresponding area. That is to say, in this case, it is impossible for the display panel 100 to have uniform upper display brightness and lower display brightness at the same time when redisplaying the picture after brightness compensation. Instead, it can only be ensured that the display panel 100 can have uniform upper display brightness, or, lower display brightness.
[0043] However, the embodiment of the present invention not only adds photosensitive devices (112a and 112b) to ensure that the display panel 100 can be accurately compensated for brightness, but also further enables the display panel 100 to have consistent upper and lower display effects. Therefore, it can be ensured that when the display panel 100 redisplays the image after brightness compensation, it can have uniform upper and lower display brightness at the same time.
[0044] For details, please continue to refer to Figure 1In this embodiment, each display unit (110a and 110b) has an upper light outlet (C11 and C21) and a lower light outlet (C12 and C22). Taking the display unit 110a as an example, the light emitting device 111a is arranged opposite to the upper light outlet C11 and the lower light outlet C12, and is located between the upper light outlet C11 and the lower light outlet C12. Furthermore, the photosensitive device 112a is arranged to be offset from the upper light outlet C11 and the lower light outlet C12 to avoid affecting the light emitting device 111a through the upper light outlet C11 and the lower light outlet C12 so that the display panel 100 has both the upper display effect and the lower display effect in the corresponding area. Such an arrangement can ensure that the display unit 110a has the best display effect.
[0045] Further, in the present embodiment, the upper light outlet (C11 and C21) has a first opening area (S11 and S21), and the lower light outlet (C12 and C22) has a second opening area (S12 and S22), wherein the first opening area (S11 and S21) is equal to the second opening area (S12 and S22). Thus, since the sum of the areas of the multiple upper light outlets (C11 to Cn1) of the display panel 100 is equal to the sum of the areas of the multiple lower light outlets (C12 to Cn2), the display panel 100 can have consistent upper display effects and lower display effects.
[0046] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first opening area S11 of the display unit 110a is equal to the second opening area S12, the first opening area S21 of the display unit 110b is equal to the second opening area S22, and the first opening area S11 of the display unit 110a does not need to be equal to the first opening area S21 of the display unit 110b, and the second opening area S12 of the display unit 110a does not need to be equal to the second opening area S22 of the display unit 110b.
[0047] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the first opening area S11 of the display unit 110a may be equal to the first opening area S21 of the display unit 110b, and the second opening area S12 of the display unit 110a may be equal to the second opening area S22 of the display unit 110b.
[0048] For further information, see Figure 2 , Figure 2The detailed structural schematic diagram of the display unit 110a provided in the first embodiment according to the present invention is shown. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the light emitting device 111a includes a first anode layer 1, a light emitting layer 2 and a first cathode layer 3 arranged in layers, wherein the material of the first anode layer 1 includes but is not limited to transparent oxide, and the material of the transparent oxide can be, for example, indium tin oxide (ITO). Further, in the present embodiment, the photosensitive device 112a can be, for example, an amorphous silicon-based photodiode (a-si substrate Photo-Diode), and includes a second anode layer 4, a photosensitive layer 5 and a second cathode layer 6 arranged in layers, wherein the material of the second anode layer 4 includes but is not limited to indium tin oxide (ITO) and a composition of indium tin oxide (ITO) and aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO, aluminum-doped ZnO film), the material of the photosensitive layer 5 includes but is not limited to P-Si, I-Si, N-Si, the material of the second cathode layer 6 includes but is not limited to Mo / Al, Ti / Al and ITO / Ag, and specifically, the second cathode layer 6 is a high reflectivity layer.
[0049] Furthermore, the inventors have found that the performance of the photosensitive device 112a will gradually age as it is frequently exposed to ultraviolet rays during the photosensitivity process. Therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of the light emitting brightness of the light emitting device 111a detected by the photosensitive device 112, Figure 2 As shown, an ultraviolet filter film 7 may be provided on the light incident side of the photosensitive device 112a, that is, an ultraviolet filter film 7 may be provided on the second cathode layer 6. Specifically, the material of the ultraviolet filter film 7 includes but is not limited to silicon nitride (chemical formula: SiNx), and the thickness of the ultraviolet filter film 7 is greater than
[0050] Please continue reading Figure 2 ,like Figure 2 As shown, the display unit 110a also includes a stacked substrate 113a and a driving circuit layer 114a, wherein the driving circuit layer 114a includes a first driving circuit (not shown in the figure) coupled to the light-emitting device 111a and a second driving circuit (not shown in the figure) coupled to the photosensitive device 112a, and wherein the first driving circuit is configured to drive the light-emitting device 111a to emit light, and the second driving circuit is configured to drive the photosensitive device 112a to detect the light-emitting brightness of the light-emitting device 111a.
[0051] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, the first driving circuit is composed of a plurality of first thin film transistors T1, and the first thin film transistor T1 specifically includes: a first doped region 8, an undoped region 9, a second doped region 10, a first gate 11, a second gate 12, a first drain metal layer 13, and a first source metal layer 14, wherein the first gate 11 and the second gate 12 are arranged opposite to each other to form a storage capacitor. Further, the second driving circuit is composed of a plurality of second thin film transistors T2, and the second thin film transistor T2 specifically includes: a second drain metal layer 15, a third doped region 16, a third gate 17, a second source metal layer 18, and a fourth doped region 19.
[0052] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first driving circuit and the second driving circuit are arranged in the same layer to achieve the purpose of reducing the thickness of the display panel 100. Further, in this embodiment, the photosensitive device 112a is arranged between the driving circuit layer 114a and the light emitting device 111a.
[0053] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The material of the substrate 113a includes but is not limited to glass, and a light blocking layer 1131a is provided in the substrate 113a, and the light blocking layer 1131a is used to enclose the lower light outlet C12 of the display unit 110a, that is, the light blocking layer 1131a can be used to limit the second opening area S12 of the lower light outlet C12, and further, can also be used to prevent ambient light from entering the display unit 110a.
[0054] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The display unit 110a further includes a pixel definition layer 115a (Pixel Definition Layer, PDL), wherein the pixel definition layer in each display unit (110a and 110b) is formed in the same process step to define and isolate the light-emitting devices (111a and 111b) in each display unit (110a and 110b).
[0055] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The display unit 110a further includes a dielectric layer 116a disposed between the driving circuit layer 114a and the pixel definition layer 115a, wherein the photosensitive device 112a is formed in the dielectric layer 116a. Specifically, the dielectric layer 116a is a transparent material so that the portion between the upper light outlet C11 and the lower light outlet C12 of the display unit 110a can transmit light.
[0056] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The display unit 110a further includes a water-oxygen barrier layer 117a disposed between the driving circuit layer 114a and the substrate 113a, and the water-oxygen barrier layer 117a is used to prevent moisture from penetrating into the driving circuit layer 114a and causing damage thereto.
[0057] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 The display unit 110a further includes an encapsulation layer 118a (Thin Film Encapsulation, TFE) disposed on the light emitting device 111a. The encapsulation layer 118a uses an ultra-thin film to seal the light emitting device 111a to protect the light emitting device 111a from corrosion by external moisture and oxygen. Specifically, the encapsulation layer 118a is provided with a support column 1181a (Photo Spacer, PS) located on the pixel definition layer 115a. The support column 1181a is used to protect the metal circuit in the display panel 100 from being scratched during the process of evaporating the organic light emitting material.
[0058] According to the foregoing content, a first embodiment of the present invention provides a display panel 100, wherein the display panel 100 has a plurality of display units (110a and 110b), each display unit (110a and 110b) includes a light emitting device (111a and 111b) and a photosensitive device (112a and 112b), wherein the light emitting devices (111a and 111b) in each display unit (110a and 110b) are used to cooperate with each other so that the display panel 100 has consistent upper display effect and lower display effect, and the photosensitive devices (112a and 112b) are used to detect the light emitting brightness of the light emitting devices (111a and 111b). For example, by making the first opening area (S11 and S21) of the upper light outlet (C11 and C21) of each display unit (110a and 110b) equal to the second opening area (S12 and S22) of the lower light outlet (C12 and C22), the display panel 100 has consistent upper display effects and lower display effects, and by adding photosensitive devices (112a and 112b) in each display unit (110a and 110b), the accuracy of brightness compensation for the display panel 100 can be guaranteed, and it can further be ensured that the display panel 100 that has been brightness compensated has uniform brightness when displaying images.
[0059] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 FIG. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a display panel 200 provided in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 The detailed structural diagram of the display unit 210a provided in the second embodiment according to the present invention is shown. From the figure, the various components of the second embodiment according to the present invention and the relative position relationship of the various components can be clearly seen.
[0060] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the structure of the second embodiment is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment described above, wherein the substrate 213a (including the light blocking layer 2131a), the driving circuit layer 214a, the pixel definition layer 215a, the dielectric layer 216a, the water and oxygen barrier layer 217a and the encapsulation layer 218a (including the support column 2181a) in the second embodiment are similar to the substrate 113a (including the light blocking layer 1131a), the driving circuit layer 114a, the pixel definition layer 115a, the dielectric layer 116a, the water and oxygen barrier layer 117a and the encapsulation layer 218a (including the support column 2181a) in the first embodiment. a and the encapsulation layer 118a (including the support column 1181a) have the same function and setting position, and the display units (210a and 210b) in the second embodiment are the same size as the display units (110a and 110b) in the first embodiment, and the light-emitting devices (211a and 211b) and the photosensitive devices (212a and 212b) in the second embodiment have the same film structure as the light-emitting devices (111a and 111b) and the photosensitive devices (112a and 112b) in the first embodiment.
[0061] The difference is that, in this embodiment, the ratio between the first opening area (S11 and S21) and the second opening area (S12 and S22) of each display unit (210a and 210b) is set to the same preset threshold value, so that the display panel 100 has consistent upper display effect and lower display effect, that is, in this embodiment, S11 / S21=S12 / S22. Moreover, compared with the first embodiment described above, in this embodiment, the first opening area (S11 and S21) of each display unit (210a and 210b) is larger, that is, in this embodiment, the upper display area of the display panel 200 is larger.
[0062] It should be noted that if Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, while increasing the first opening area (S11 and S21) of the upper light outlet (C11 and C21) of each display unit (210a and 210b), the size of the light emitting device (211a and 211b) is also increased to match the first opening area (S11 and S21). Further, in other embodiments according to the present invention, only the first opening area of the upper light outlet can be increased without correspondingly increasing the size of the light emitting device, and similar effects can also be achieved.
[0063] Furthermore, if Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, since the size of the light emitting devices (211a and 211b) is correspondingly increased, the light emitting devices (211a and 211b) and the photosensitive devices (212a and 212b) have an overlapping area in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the display units (210a and 210b).
[0064] It should be noted that, through research by the inventors of this case, it was found that, taking the display unit 210a as an example, when the photosensitive device 212a detects the luminous brightness of the light-emitting device 211a, the amount of light sensitivity obtained will determine the signal-to-noise ratio (that is, the value of "photocurrent / dark current") when calculating the luminous brightness of the light-emitting device 211a. Furthermore, the larger the signal-to-noise ratio, the more accurate the luminous brightness of the light-emitting device 211a calculated by the photosensitive device 212a will be.
[0065] Now return to reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 Compared with the first embodiment described above, in this embodiment, since the light-emitting device 211a and the photosensitive device 212a have a certain overlapping area in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the display unit 210a, in this embodiment, the light-sensitive amount of the photosensitive device 212a is greater.
