[0065] Figure 1A FIG1 is a top view of a display device according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. The display device 10 includes a display panel 11 . Figure 1B for Figure 1A Schematic diagram of the top view of the pixels in the functional display area of ​​the display panel. Figure 1A , the display panel 11 of this embodiment has a functional display area 100, a general display area 200 and a non-display area 300. Among them, the general display area 200 is adjacent to the functional display area 100 and the non-display area 300, and the general display area 200 is arranged between the functional display area 100 and the non-display area 300, but is not limited to this. In some embodiments, the general display area 200 may, for example, surround at least part of the functional display area 100, and the non-display area 300 may, for example, surround the general display area 200, but is not limited to this. That is to say, in other embodiments, the functional display area 100, the general display area 200 and the non-display area 300 of the display device 10 may also adopt other configuration methods as needed. The shape of the functional display area in this embodiment is only an example. In other embodiments, it can be adjusted according to actual design requirements, and the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0066] In this embodiment, the general display area 200 has a first side 201, a second side 202, a third side 203, and a fourth side 204. The first side 201 and the third side 203 are opposite to each other, and the second side 202 and the fourth side 204 are opposite to each other. The second side 202 connects the first side 201 and the third side 203, and the fourth side 204 connects the first side 201 and the third side 203. In addition, in this embodiment, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are different directions. The first direction X is, for example, the extending direction of the second side 202 and the fourth side 204, the second direction Y is, for example, the extending direction of the first side 201 and the third side 203, the first direction X is, for example, perpendicular to the second direction Y, and the third direction Z is, for example, perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0067] In this embodiment, the display panel 11 further includes a plurality of gate driver circuits (GOPs) 420 and an external pin bonding area 430. The external pin bonding area 430 may include a driver chip and / or be used to connect to external circuits, but is not limited thereto. The gate driver 420 and the external pin bonding area 430 may be arranged corresponding to the non-display area 300. The gate driver 420 may be arranged outside the first side 201 and the third side 203 of the general display area 200, and the external pin bonding area 430 may be arranged outside the fourth side 204 of the general display area 200. In some embodiments, the display device 10 further includes an optical sensor 410. The optical sensor 410 may be arranged corresponding to the functional display area 100 and may be arranged below the display panel 11 to provide functions such as photo taking, video recording, or biometric recognition (such as fingerprint recognition). The optical sensor 410 may include an optical camera or an infrared sensor. In other embodiments, the optical sensor 410 may further include a flash, an infrared (IR) light source, other sensors, electronic components, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the area of ​​the functional display area 100 may be larger than the area of ​​the optical sensor 410 when viewed from above (e.g., along the third direction Z), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0068] Please also refer to Figure 1A and Figure 1B In this embodiment, the functional display area 100 includes a plurality of pixels 110. At least a portion of the pixels 110 include a white pixel 111 and a plurality of display pixels (for example, including display pixel 112R, display pixel 112G, and display pixel 112B). The pixel 110 may have an edge 1101, an edge 1102, an edge 1103, and an edge 1104. The edge 1101 and the edge 1103 are opposite to each other, and the edge 1102 and the edge 1104 are opposite to each other. The edge 1102 connects the edge 1101 and the edge 1103, and the edge 1104 connects the edge 1101 and the edge 1103. In the present disclosure, the functional display area 100 is an area defined by the pixels 110 including the white pixel 111 and the plurality of display pixels.

[0069] In this embodiment, the white pixel 111 can be considered a light-transmitting area, allowing external light to pass through the white pixel 111 and reach the optical sensor 410 when the optical sensor 410 is in a sensing mode (e.g., when the optical sensor 410 is sensing and / or acquiring an external image). The white pixel 111 may include a pixel electrode (not shown) and a portion of a common electrode (not shown). The pixel transmittance can be adjusted by the voltage supplied to the pixel electrode. Thus, when the functional display area 100 is displaying an image, the pixel electrode voltage of the white pixel 111 can be adjusted to render the white pixel 111 opaque or non-transparent, thereby improving display quality. In this embodiment, the transmittance of the functional display area 100 when the optical sensor 410 is in the sensing mode can be greater than the transmittance of the functional display area 100 when the optical sensor 410 is in the non-sensing mode. This prevents the user from seeing the optical sensor 410 through the display device 10 when the optical sensor 410 is in the non-sensing mode. For example, the transmittance described in the present disclosure refers to the percentage of the light intensity of the ambient light measured after it penetrates the display panel 11 (e.g., the functional display area 100 of the display panel 11) divided by the light intensity of the ambient light measured without penetrating the display panel 11. The "light intensity" mentioned above refers to the spectral integral value of the light source (which may be, for example, display light or ambient light). In some embodiments, the light source may include visible light (e.g., a wavelength between 380nm and 780nm) or ultraviolet light (e.g., a wavelength less than 365nm), but is not limited thereto. That is, when the light source is visible light, the light intensity is the spectral integral value within the wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm.

[0070] In this embodiment, display pixel 112R can display a red image, display pixel 112G can display a green image, and display pixel 112B can display a blue image, so that the functional display area 100 can display an image when the optical sensor 410 is in the non-sensing mode, but this is not limited to this. In the present disclosure, a "pixel" can be a stacked structure that includes all relevant film layers, relevant components, or relevant parts configured to emit light with brightness and color. For a liquid crystal display, a pixel can include relevant parts of the liquid crystal layer, relevant parts of the polarizer, relevant parts of the backlight, and the relevant substrate, driving circuit, and color filter. For self-luminous displays (such as inorganic light-emitting diode displays (LEDs) and organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs), pixels may include related self-luminous sources, related light conversion layers, related portions of polarizers, related substrates, and related driving circuits. In other embodiments, when the general display area 200 and the functional display area 100 are displaying images, the white pixels 111 in the functional display area 100 may be in an off state, i.e., the white pixels 111 do not display or present a black image.

[0071] In this embodiment, a plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may surround at least a portion of the white pixel 111. Specifically, in this embodiment, the shape of the white pixel 111 is, for example, a square, but is not limited thereto. The white pixel 111 may have a first side 1111, a second side 1112, a third side 1113, and a fourth side 1114. The first side 1111 and the third side 1113 are opposite to each other, and the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 are opposite to each other. The second side 1112 connects the first side 1111 and the third side 1113, and the fourth side 1114 connects the first side 1111 and the third side 1113. The first side 1111, the second side 1112, the third side 1113, and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111 may all be straight lines, but is not limited thereto. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may be, for example, arranged in sequence and surrounding any two adjacent edges (e.g., the first edge 1111 and the fourth edge 1114) of the white pixel 111, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the display pixels 112R, the display pixels 112G, and the display pixels 112B may also be arranged in another sequence (or irregularly) and surrounding any two adjacent edges of the white pixel 111. In this embodiment, the white pixel 111 is, for example, disposed at a corner of the pixel 110. For example, the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114 of the white pixel 111 may be, for example, edges of a pixel electrode of the white pixel 111. In other embodiments, these edges may be, for example, edges of an opening in the black matrix, where the opening may expose at least a portion of the pixel electrode of the white pixel, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0072] In this embodiment, a distance D1 is defined between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113, and a distance D2 is defined between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114. Distance D1 may, for example, be substantially equal to distance D2, but is not limited thereto. Distance D1 is, for example, the maximum distance between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 measured along the first direction X, and distance D2 is, for example, the maximum distance between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 measured along the second direction Y. In this embodiment, since the distance D1 between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 of the white pixel 111 (i.e., the maximum length of the white pixel 111 in the first direction X) can be substantially equal to the distance D2 between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111 (i.e., the maximum length of the white pixel 111 in the second direction Y), the positions of the diffracted light can be made uniform or the problem of severe diffraction in a single direction can be reduced. This makes it easier for the software to correct the diffraction phenomenon caused by light passing through the panel, thereby obtaining a better optical sensing effect.

[0073] In some embodiments, the difference in aperture ratio among the display pixel 112R, the display pixel 112G, and the display pixel 112B may be, for example, less than 1% to reduce the problem of white point shift, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0074] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111 (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) are all straight lines, the present disclosure does not limit the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111 (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) can be arcs, such as Figure 2A and Figure 2B shown.

[0075] In this embodiment, although the white pixel 111 is square in shape, the present disclosure is not limited to the shape of the white pixel 111. For example, in some embodiments, the white pixel 111 may be octagonal (not shown) or other polygonal (not shown), as long as the distance D1 of the white pixel 111 is substantially equal to the distance D2. In some embodiments, the white pixel 111 may also be circular (not shown).

[0076] The following examples are provided for illustration purposes only. It should be noted that the following examples share the same component numbers and some of the details as the previous examples, with the same numbers used to represent the same or similar components, and descriptions of the same technical details omitted. For the omitted details, please refer to the previous examples, and the following examples will not be repeated.

[0077] Figure 2A FIG1 is a partial top view of a display device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2B for Figure 2A Please also refer to the circuit configuration diagram of the display device. Figure 1B 、 Figure 2A as well as Figure 2B The display device 10a of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 1B Therefore, the same and similar components between the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10a of this embodiment differs from the display device 10 mainly in that the lines of pixels 110 in the display device 10a of this embodiment are designed as curved lines to further reduce diffraction of light in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0078] Specifically, please refer to Figure 2A and Figure 2B In this embodiment, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110, the first side 1111, the second side 1112, the third side 1113, and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111, and the boundaries between the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B (i.e., the boundary 1121 between the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G, and the boundary 1122 between the display pixel 112G and the display pixel 112B) are all arcs.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 2B In this embodiment, the functional display area 100 further includes a signal line 120, a signal line 130, a transistor 140, and a light shielding layer (not shown). The signal line 120 and the signal line 130 can be electrically connected to the transistor 140, respectively, and the light shielding layer can be used to shield the signal line 120, the signal line 130, and the transistor 140. For example, Figure 2B Schematically illustrating four signal lines 120, two signal lines 130, and three transistors 140. The four signal lines 120 extend generally along a first direction X and are respectively disposed at an edge 1102 of the pixel 110, at a junction 1121 and a fourth side 1114, at an edge 1104 of an adjacent pixel 110, and at an edge 1104 of the pixel 110. The two signal lines 130 extend generally along a second direction Y and are respectively disposed at an edge 1101 and an edge 1103 of the pixel 110. The transistors 140 are disposed corresponding to the display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B. A light shielding layer (not shown) is disposed corresponding to the signal lines 120, the signal lines 130, and the transistors 140.

[0080] In the present embodiment, the signal line 120 is, for example, a scan line, and the signal line 130 is, for example, a data line, but not limited thereto. In the present embodiment, the signal line 130 may have a branch 131 and a trunk 130a. The signal can be transmitted from the trunk 130a to the branch 131, and the branch 131 is, for example, extending from the trunk 130a located at the edge 1101 along the edge 1104 to the junction 1122 of two display pixels, so that the branch 131 can be electrically connected to one of the multiple display pixels 112R, 112G, 112B (for example, the display pixel 112B, but not limited thereto). On the other hand, the "pixel" disclosed herein can be defined, for example, by the trunks 130a of two adjacent signal lines 130 and two adjacent signal lines 120 electrically connected to the display pixels of the same color. For example, the two adjacent signal lines 120 are, for example, Figure 2B The signal line 120 in the middle is electrically connected to the display pixel 112B and another signal line 120 at the top of the diagram can be electrically connected to another display pixel (not shown) that emits the same color as the display pixel 112B, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0081] Figure 3 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1B and Figure 3 The display device 10b of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 1B Therefore, the same and similar components in the two embodiments will not be repeated here. Figure 3 for Figure 1A A top view of another embodiment of a pixel in a functional display area. The display device 10 b of this embodiment differs from the display device 10 mainly in that, in the display device 10 b of this embodiment, the white pixel 111 b is disposed at the center of the pixel 110 .

[0082] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may be, for example, arranged in sequence and surrounding the first side 1111, the second side 1112, the third side 1113, and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111b, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the display pixels 112R, the display pixels 112G, and the display pixels 112B may be arranged in another sequence (or irregularly) and surrounding the first side 1111, the second side 1112, the third side 1113, and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111b. In this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may completely surround the white pixel 111b.

[0083] In this embodiment, since the distance D1 between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 of the white pixel 111b can be substantially equal to the distance D2 between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111b, the positions of the diffracted light can be made uniform or the problem of severe diffraction in a single direction can be reduced. This makes it easier for the software to correct the diffraction phenomenon caused by light passing through the panel, thereby obtaining a better optical sensing effect.

[0084] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111b (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) are all straight lines, the present disclosure is not limited to the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111b (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) may be arcs (not shown).

[0085] In this embodiment, although the shape of the white pixel 111b is a square, the present disclosure does not limit the shape of the white pixel 111b. For example, in some embodiments, the shape of the white pixel 111c can be an octagon (e.g., Figure 4 As shown) or other polygons (not shown), as long as the distance D1 of the white pixel 111c is substantially equal to the distance D2. In some embodiments, the shape of the white pixel 111d can also be a circle (as shown) Figure 5A and Figure 5B The distance D1 and the distance D2 in this embodiment can be measured in the same manner as in the first embodiment and will not be described in detail here.

[0086] Figure 4 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The display device 10c of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 3 Therefore, the same and similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10c of this embodiment is different from the display device 10b mainly in that, in the display device 10c of this embodiment, the shape of the white pixel 111c is, for example, an octagon.

[0087] Specifically, please refer to Figure 4 White pixel 111c further has a fifth side 1115, a sixth side 1116, a seventh side 1117, and an eighth side 1118. Fifth side 1115 and seventh side 1117 are opposite to each other, and sixth side 1116 and eighth side 1118 are opposite to each other. Fifth side 1115 connects first side 1111 and second side 1112, sixth side 1116 connects second side 1112 and third side 1113, seventh side 1117 connects third side 1113 and fourth side 1114, and eighth side 1118 connects fourth side 1114 and first side 1111.

[0088] In this embodiment, because the distance D1 between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 of the white pixel 111c is substantially equal to the distance D2 between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111c, the diffracted light can be aligned, or the problem of severe diffraction in a single direction can be reduced. This further makes it easier for the software to correct for diffraction caused by light passing through the panel, thereby achieving better optical sensing effects. The measurement method of distance D1 and distance D2 in this embodiment can be the same as that of the first embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0089] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111c (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, the fourth edge 1114, the fifth edge 1115, the sixth edge 1116, the seventh edge 1117, and the eighth edge 1118) are all straight lines, the present disclosure is not limited to the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixel 110 and the edge of the white pixel 111b (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, the fourth edge 1114, the fifth edge 1115, the sixth edge 1116, the seventh edge 1117, and the eighth edge 1118) may be arcs (not shown).

[0090] Figure 5A It is a partial top view of a display device according to a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 5B for Figure 5A Please also refer to the circuit configuration diagram of the display device. Figure 3 、 Figure 5A as well as Figure 5B The display device 10d of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 3 Therefore, the same and similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10d of this embodiment is different from the display device 10b mainly in that, in the display device 10d of this embodiment, the shape of the white pixel 111d is circular.

[0091] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5A In this embodiment, since the white pixel 111d is circular in shape, the diameters of the white pixel 111d in all directions are equal or similar, and the positions of the diffracted light are the same, making it easier for the software to correct the diffraction phenomenon caused by light penetrating the panel to obtain a better optical sensing effect.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 5B In this embodiment, the functional display area 100 further includes a signal line 120, a signal line 130, a transistor 140, and a light shielding layer (not shown). The signal line 120 and the signal line 130 can be electrically connected to the transistor 140, respectively, and the light shielding layer can be used to shield the signal line 120, the signal line 130, and the transistor 140. For example, Figure 5B, schematically illustrating three signal lines 120, two signal lines 130, and three transistors 140. The three signal lines 120 extend substantially along a first direction X and are disposed at an edge 1102 of a pixel 110, an edge 1104 of an adjacent pixel 110, and an edge 1104 of the pixel 110, respectively. The two signal lines 130 extend substantially along a second direction Y and are disposed at an edge 1101 and an edge 1103 of the pixel 110, respectively. The transistors 140 are disposed corresponding to the display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B. A light shielding layer (not shown) is disposed corresponding to the signal lines 120, the signal lines 130, and the transistors 140.

[0093] In this embodiment, the signal line 120 is, for example, a scan line, and the signal line 130 is, for example, a data line, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the signal line 130 may have a branch 131d and a trunk 130a. The branch 131d may, for example, extend from the signal line 130 located at the edge 1101 along the edge 1104 to the junction 1122, such that the branch 131d may be electrically connected to one of the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B (for example, the display pixel 112B), but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0094] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, and 1104 of the pixel 110 are all straight lines, the present disclosure does not limit the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, and 1104 of the pixel 110 may be arcs (not shown).

[0095] Figure 6 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the fifth embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 5A and Figure 6 The display device 10e of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 5A Therefore, the same and similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10e of this embodiment is different from the display device 10d mainly in that, in the display device 10e of this embodiment, the white pixel 111e is disposed between the pixel 110e1 and the pixel 110e2.

[0096] Specifically, please refer to Figure 6In this embodiment, the pixels 110e1 and 110e2 include a white pixel 111e1, a white pixel 111e2, and a plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B. The white pixels 111e1 and 111e2 are, for example, semicircular in shape and are disposed adjacent to the edges 1101 and 1103 of the pixels 110e1 and 110e2, respectively. The plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B are arranged in sequence and disposed between the white pixels 111e1 and 111e2, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the display pixels 112R, the display pixels 112G, and the display pixels 112B may also be arranged in another sequence (or irregularly) and disposed between the white pixels 111e1 and 111e2.

[0097] In this embodiment, since pixel 110e1 and pixel 110e2 are adjacent to each other and there is no other pixel between pixel 110e1 and pixel 110e2, white pixel 111e2 of pixel 110e1 can be combined with white pixel 111e1 of pixel 110e2 to form a circular white pixel 111e. The circular white pixel 111e can be located at the center of the pattern formed by combining pixels 110e1 and 110e2.

[0098] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, and 1104 of the pixels 110e1 and 110e2 are all straight lines, the present disclosure does not limit the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, and 1104 of the pixels 110e1 and 110e2 may be arcs (not shown).

[0099] Figure 7 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the sixth embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1B and Figure 7 The display device 10f of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 1B Therefore, the same or similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10f of this embodiment differs from the display device 10 mainly in that, in the display device 10f of this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, and 110f3 are disposed within the white pixel 111f.

[0100] Specifically, please refer to Figure 7In this embodiment, pixel 110f1 is adjacent to pixel 110f2, and pixel 110f2 is adjacent to pixel 110f3. That is, there are no other pixels between pixel 110f1 and pixel 110f2, and there are no other pixels between pixel 110f2 and pixel 110f3. This embodiment uses only three pixels as an example. In other embodiments, there may be more than three adjacent pixels, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0101] In this embodiment, the first side 1111 , the second side 1112 , the third side 1113 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111 f can be regarded as the edges 1101 , 1102 , 1103 and 1104 of the pixels 110 f 1 , 110 f 2 and 110 f 3 . In this embodiment, the distance D1 between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 of the white pixel 111f (i.e., the length of the white pixel 111f in the first direction X) is substantially equal to the distance between the edge 1101 and the edge 1103 of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, and 110f3 (i.e., the length of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, and 110f3 in the first direction X), and the distance D2 between the second side 1112 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111f (i.e., the maximum length of the white pixel 111f in the second direction Y) is substantially equal to the distance between the edge 1102 and the edge 1104 of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, and 110f3 (i.e., the maximum length of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, and 110f3 in the second direction Y). Therefore, the display device 10f of this embodiment can reduce diffraction problems or have better optical sensing effects. The distance between edge 1101 and edge 1103 is, for example, the maximum distance between edge 1101 and edge 1103 measured along the first direction X, and the distance between edge 1102 and edge 1104 is, for example, the maximum distance between edge 1102 and edge 1104 measured along the second direction Y.

[0102] In this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may be sequentially dispersed within the white pixel 111f, for example, but not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may be dispersed within the white pixel 111f in another order (or irregularly dispersed). The plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B may be separated from one another. The display pixel 112R may not overlap with the display pixel 112G and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X and the second direction Y, the display pixel 112G may not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X and the second direction Y, and the display pixel 112B may not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G in the first direction X and the second direction Y. This configuration can reduce diffraction issues in the display device 10f of this embodiment or provide better optical sensing performance.

[0103] In this embodiment, between adjacent pixels 110f1 and 110f2, the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f1 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 are adjacently arranged in the first direction X, and no other display pixels are located between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f1 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2. The display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f1 may overlap the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 in the first direction X. The distance D3 between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f1 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f2 may be, for example, greater than or equal to 1 / 5 of the distance D1 and less than or equal to 4 / 5 of the distance D1 (i.e., 1 / 5×D1≦D3≦4 / 5×D1), but is not limited thereto. The distance D3 is, for example, the minimum distance between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f1 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f2 measured along the first direction X.

[0104] In this embodiment, between adjacent pixels 110f2 and 110f3, the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f3 are adjacently arranged in the second direction Y, and no other display pixels are located between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f3. The display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 may overlap the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of pixel 110f2 in the second direction Y. The distance D4 between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f2 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f3 may be, for example, greater than or equal to 1 / 5 of the distance D2 and less than or equal to 4 / 5 of the distance D2 (i.e., 1 / 5×D2≦D4≦4 / 5×D2), but is not limited thereto. The distance D4 is, for example, the minimum distance between the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f2 and the display pixel 112R (or display pixel 112G or display pixel 112B) of the pixel 110f3 measured along the second direction Y.

[0105] In this embodiment, although the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, 110f3, and the edge of the white pixel 111f (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) are all straight lines, the present disclosure is not limited to the line form of these edges. For example, in some embodiments, the edges 1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 of the pixels 110f1, 110f2, 110f3, and the edge of the white pixel 111f (i.e., the first edge 1111, the second edge 1112, the third edge 1113, and the fourth edge 1114) may be arcs (not shown).

[0106] In this embodiment, although the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B within the white pixel 111f are arranged in the order of display pixel 112R, display pixel 112G, and display pixel 112B in the first direction X, and in the order of display pixel 112R, display pixel 112G, and display pixel 112B in the second direction Y, the present disclosure does not impose any limitation on the arrangement order of the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B. It is sufficient as long as the display pixel 112R does not overlap with the display pixel 112G and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X and the second direction Y, the display pixel 112G does not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X and the second direction Y, and the display pixel 112B does not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0107] Figure 8 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the seventh embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 and Figure 8 The display device 10g of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 7 Therefore, the same or similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10g of this embodiment differs from the display device 10f mainly in that the display device 10g of this embodiment has a different arrangement of the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B disposed within the white pixels 111 of pixels 110g1, 110g2, and 110g3.

[0108] Specifically, please refer to Figure 8 In this embodiment, the arrangement order of the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B in the first direction X is display pixel 112R, display pixel 112B, and display pixel 112G, which is different from Figure 7 The arrangement order of the multiple display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B in the first direction X (ie, the display pixel 112R, the display pixel 112G, and the display pixel 112B).

The display device 10h of this embodiment differs from the display device 10f mainly in that, in the display device 10h of this embodiment, the plurality of display pixels 112R, 112G, and 112B disposed within the white pixel 111 of the pixel 110 are connected together.

[0111] Specifically, please refer to Figure 9 In this embodiment, the functional display area 100 further includes a signal line 120, a signal line 130, a transistor 140, and a light shielding layer (not shown).

For example, Figure 9 , schematically illustrating three signal lines 120, one signal line 130, and three transistors 140. Signal lines 120 are, for example, scan lines, and signal lines 130 are, for example, data lines, but are not limited thereto. The three signal lines 120 extend generally along a first direction X and are respectively disposed at the lower edges of display pixel 112R, display pixel 112G, and display pixel 112B. Signal line 130 extends generally along a second direction Y and is disposed to the left of display pixel 112R. Signal line 130 may include a trunk 130a, branches 131h, and branches 132h.

[0115] The display device 10j of this embodiment differs from the display device 10f primarily in that, in the display device 10j of this embodiment, the display pixel 112R may not overlap with the display pixel 112G and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X, and the display pixel 112R may partially overlap with the display pixel 112G in the second direction Y. The display pixel 112G may not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112B in the first direction X, and the display pixel 112G may partially overlap with the display pixel 112R and / or the display pixel 112B in the second direction Y. The display pixel 112B may not overlap with the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G in the first direction X, and the display pixel 112B may partially overlap with the display pixel 112G in the second direction Y. This configuration of this embodiment can reduce diffraction issues in the display device 10f of this embodiment or provide better optical sensing performance.

[0116] Figure 11 This is a partial top view of the display device according to the tenth embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 and Figure 11 The display device 10k of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 7 Therefore, the same and similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display device 10k of this embodiment is different from the display device 10f mainly in that there are two pixel pitches in the first direction X and the second direction Y respectively.

[0117] For example, see Figure 11 In the display device 10k of this embodiment, pixels 110k1, 110k2, 110k3, and 110k4 may form a pixel group. This pixel group may be repeatedly arranged along the first direction X and the second direction Y. In this pixel group, the display pixels in the first direction X and the second direction Y may have two pixel pitches. Specifically, the display pixel 112R in pixel 110k4 and the display pixel 112R in pixel 110k1 have a minimum distance D5 in the second direction Y, and the display pixel 112R in pixel 110k1 and a display pixel of another adjacent pixel in the second direction Y (not shown, for example, a pixel arranged in the same configuration as pixel 110k4) have a minimum distance D7 in the second direction Y. Therefore, the display pixels in the second direction Y may have two pixel pitches. Please continue to refer to Figure 11 The display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G in the pixel 110k4 have a minimum distance D6 in the first direction X, and the display pixel 112G in the pixel 110k4 and a display pixel of another adjacent pixel in the first direction X (not shown, for example, a pixel with the same configuration as the pixel 110k4) have a minimum distance D1 in the first direction X. Therefore, the display pixels in the first direction X can have two pixel pitches.

[0118] In this embodiment, the distance D1 between the first side 1111 and the third side 1113 of the white pixel 111f (i.e., the length of the white pixel 111f in the first direction X) is substantially equal to the distance between the edge 1101 and the edge 1103 of the pixels 110k1, 110k2, 110k3, and 110k4 (i.e., the length of the pixels 110k1, 110k2, 110k3, and 110k4 in the first direction X), and the display pixel 112R of the pixel 110k4 (or the display pixel 110k3) The distance D5 between the display pixel 112R) and the display pixel 112R of the pixel 110k1 (or the display pixel 112R of the pixel 110k2) can be substantially equal to the distance between the edge 1102 and the edge 1104 of the pixels 110k1, 110k2, 110k3, and 110k4 (i.e., the maximum length of the pixels 110k1, 110k2, 110k3, and 110k4 in the second direction Y). Therefore, the display device 10k of this embodiment can reduce the diffraction problem or have a better optical sensing effect.

[0119] In this embodiment, the distance D6 between the display pixel 112R and the display pixel 112G of the pixel 110k4 may be, for example, smaller than the distance D1. For example, the distance D6 is substantially equal to 1 / 3 of the distance D1 (ie, D6 ≈ 1 / 3×D1), but is not limited thereto.

[0120] In this embodiment, the distance D7 between the display pixel 112R of the pixel 110k1 and the fourth side 1114 of the white pixel 111f (or the edge 1104 of the pixel 110k1) may be, for example, smaller than the distance D5. For example, the distance D7 is substantially equal to 1 / 3 of the distance D5 (i.e., D7 ≒ 1 / 3×D5), but is not limited thereto.

[0121] In summary, in the display devices of the presently disclosed embodiments, because the distance between the first and third sides of a white pixel (i.e., the length of the white pixel in the first direction) can be substantially equal to the distance between the second and fourth sides of the white pixel (i.e., the length of the white pixel in the second direction), the positions of diffracted light rays can be made uniform, or the problem of severe diffraction in a single direction can be reduced. This makes it easier for software to correct for diffraction caused by light passing through the panel, thereby achieving better optical sensing results. In some display devices, the curved lines of pixels can further reduce diffraction of light in the first direction X or the second direction Y. In some display devices, the circular shape of the white pixels makes the diameters of the white pixels equal or similar in all directions, and the positions of diffracted light rays can be made uniform. This makes it easier for software to correct for diffraction caused by light passing through the panel, thereby achieving better optical sensing results. In display devices of some embodiments, since the distance between the first and third sides of a white pixel (i.e., the length of the white pixel in the first direction) can be substantially equal to the length of the pixel in the first direction, and the distance between the second and fourth sides of the white pixel (i.e., the length of the white pixel in the second direction) can be substantially equal to the length of the pixel in the second direction Y, diffraction problems can be reduced or better optical sensing effects can be achieved.
