Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure belong to the field of display technology, and particularly relate to a display substrate, a display panel, and a display device. Background Art

[0002] For low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) display products, the disclosed technology primarily replaces the channel material of some transistors (such as the threshold compensation transistor and reset transistor connected to the gate of the driver transistor) in the low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) pixel circuit with metal oxide materials. This allows the low-temperature polysilicon transistors in the pixel circuit to drive the screen display, while the metal oxide transistors serve as switches. This new process combines the strong driving capability of low-temperature polysilicon transistors with the low leakage and low power consumption of metal oxide transistors, thereby significantly reducing the power consumption of display products and achieving advantages such as dynamic high and low refresh rates.

[0147] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a display substrate, a display panel and a display device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0148] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the illustrated embodiments may be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete and will fully enable those skilled in the art to understand the scope of this disclosure.

[0149] The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the embodiments shown in the drawings, but include modifications of the configurations formed based on the manufacturing process. Therefore, the regions illustrated in the drawings are schematic in nature, and the shapes of the regions shown in the drawings illustrate specific shapes of the regions, but are not intended to be limiting.

[0150] In the disclosed technology, refer to Figure 1 , a circuit diagram of a pixel drive circuit for a low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display panel. The pixel drive circuit includes a first reset transistor, a threshold compensation transistor, a drive transistor, a data write transistor, a first emission control transistor, a second emission control transistor, a second reset transistor, and a storage capacitor. All transistors in the pixel drive circuit are P-type transistors with channels made of low-temperature polysilicon material.

[0151] Reference Figure 2 , for Figure 1Schematic diagram of the top view of the arrangement of the gate drive circuit that provides gate drive signals to the transistors of the pixel drive circuit. The gate drive circuit that provides gate drive signals to the pixel drive circuit includes a light-emitting control gate drive circuit (i.e., EM GOA), a gate drive circuit for threshold compensation control and data writing control, and a gate drive circuit for first reset control and second reset control (i.e., Gate PGOA). A first gap S1 is formed between the EM GOA and the Gate PGOA. The gate drive circuit that provides gate drive signals to the pixel drive circuit is located in the border areas 102 on opposite sides of the display area 101 of the display panel.

[0152] In the disclosed technology, refer to Figure 3 , is a circuit diagram of a pixel drive circuit for a low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display panel. The pixel drive circuit also includes a first reset transistor, a threshold compensation transistor, a drive transistor, a data write transistor, a first emission control transistor, a second emission control transistor, a second reset transistor, and a storage capacitor. The first reset transistor and the threshold compensation transistor are N-type transistors with metal oxide channels; the drive transistor, the data write transistor, the first emission control transistor, the second emission control transistor, and the second reset transistor are P-type transistors with low-temperature polysilicon channels.

[0153] Reference Figure 4 , for Figure 3 A top view of the arrangement of the gate drive circuit for providing gate drive signals to the transistors in the pixel drive circuit. Figure 1 The pixel driving circuit in Figure 3 In addition to the P-type transistor, the pixel driving circuit in the CMOS also introduces the N-type transistor, so compared with Figure 2 The gate drive circuit in Figure 4The gate drive circuit in the embodiment also adds a gate drive circuit (i.e., Gate N GOA) that provides a gate drive signal to the N-type transistor (i.e., the first reset transistor and the threshold compensation transistor). A second gap S2 is formed between Gate N GOA and Gate P GOA. Therefore, compared with the LTPS OLED display panel, the LTPO OLED display panel needs to arrange corresponding Gate N GOA circuits in the border areas on both sides of the display area on the basis of arranging the EM GOA circuit and the Gate P GOA circuit. This will greatly increase the width of the border area of the display panel. For example, if the width of the Gate N GOA circuit is about 200μm, the width of the corresponding border area needs to be increased by about 20% of the original width, that is, the border area size will increase from the 1.0mm width of the left and right border areas of the LTPS OLED display panel in the disclosed technology to the 1.2mm width of the left and right border areas of the LTPO OLED display panel in the disclosed technology. For this reason, the introduction of the Gate N GOA circuit will greatly affect the development of the narrow border design of LTPO OLED display products in the future.

[0154] In addition, refer to Figure 5-Figure 7 , Figure 5 For the disclosed technology Figure 3 A top-down diagram of the LTPO OLED display panel with pixel drive circuits. Figure 6 For the Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the structural section along the AA' section line; Figure 7 for Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the gate drive circuit layout in the border area on one side of the LTPOOLED display panel.

This achieves one-push-two-side dual-edge drive of the display substrate by the first, second, and third gate drive circuits.

[0206] In some embodiments, reference Figure 20, is a schematic diagram showing the principle that the first and second gate driving circuits in the display substrate of the embodiment of the present disclosure adopt one-push-two unilateral driving, and the third gate driving circuit adopts one-push-one bilateral driving; that is, the 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) in the first gate driving circuit is distributed in the left side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) drives two rows of pixel driving circuits from the left side; the 2nth first shift register EM (2n) is distributed in the right side frame area 102 of the display substrate; and every 2nth first shift register EM (2n) drives two rows of pixel driving circuits from the right side; the two rows of pixel driving circuits driven by every 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) and every 2nth first shift register EM (2n) are different. The 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) in the second gate drive circuit is distributed in the left side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) drives four rows of pixel drive circuits from the left side. The 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) is distributed in the right side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) drives four rows of pixel drive circuits from the right side. The four rows of pixel drive circuits driven by every 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) and every 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) are different. This achieves one-push-two unilateral drive of the display substrate by the first and second gate drive circuits. The 2n-1th third shift register Gate P(2n-1) in the third gate drive circuit is symmetrically distributed in the left and right side frame areas 102 of the display substrate, and the two symmetrically distributed 2n-1th third shift registers Gate P(2n-1) drive the same row of pixel drive circuits from the left and right ends respectively.

Each 2n-1th third shift register Gate P(2n-1) and each 2nth third shift register Gate P(2n) drive a different row of pixel drive circuits. This achieves one-push-one-double-side drive of the display substrate by the third gate drive circuit.

[0207] In some embodiments, reference Figure 21 and Figure 22 , Figure 21 A schematic diagram of a gate drive circuit arrangement in which the first and second gate drive circuits in a technical display substrate adopt one-push-two double-side drive, and the third gate drive circuit adopts one-push-one double-side drive; Figure 22The present invention is a schematic diagram of the arrangement of gate drive circuits in which the first and second gate drive circuits in the display substrate adopt one-push-two unilateral drive, and the third gate drive circuit adopts one-push-one bilateral drive. The 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) in the first gate drive circuit is distributed in the left side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) drives two rows of pixel drive circuits from the left side. The 2nth first shift register EM (2n) is distributed in the right side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2nth first shift register EM (2n) drives two rows of pixel drive circuits from the right side. The two rows of pixel drive circuits driven by every 2n-1th first shift register EM (2n-1) and every 2nth first shift register EM (2n) are different. The 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) in the second gate drive circuit is distributed in the left side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) drives four rows of pixel drive circuits from the left side. The 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) is distributed in the right side frame area 102 of the display substrate, and every 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) drives four rows of pixel drive circuits from the right side. The four rows of pixel drive circuits driven by every 2n-1th second shift register Gate N(2n-1) and every 2nth second shift register Gate N(2n) are different. This achieves one-push-two unilateral drive of the display substrate by the first and second gate drive circuits. The 2n-1th third shift register Gate P(2n-1) in the third gate drive circuit is symmetrically distributed in the left and right side frame areas 102 of the display substrate, and the two symmetrically distributed 2n-1th third shift registers Gate P(2n-1) drive the same row of pixel drive circuits from the left and right ends respectively. The 2nth third shift register Gate P(2n) is symmetrically distributed in the left and right side frame areas 102 of the display substrate, and the two symmetrically distributed 2nth third shift registers Gate P(2n) drive the same row of pixel drive circuits from the left and right ends respectively. Each 2n-1th third shift register Gate P(2n-1) and each 2nth third shift register Gate P(2n) drive a different row of pixel drive circuits. This achieves one-push-one-double-side drive of the display substrate by the third gate drive circuit.

[0208] Among them, compared with Figure 21 The distribution of the gate drive circuit, Figure 22The number of the first shift register EM and the second shift register Gate N distributed in the left and right border areas 102 and 102 of the display substrate is relatively reduced, thereby reducing the border width occupied by the first and second gate driving circuits in the left and right border areas 102, which is conducive to achieving a narrow border of the display substrate.

[0209] In some embodiments, reference Figure 22 In any of the two side frame areas 102 on the periphery of the display area 101, the distribution area of one first shift register EM corresponds to the distribution area of one second shift register Gate N; and the distribution area of one first shift register EM corresponds to the distribution area of four third shift register Gate P. In particular, since the number of the first shift register EM and the second shift register Gate N in the left and right side frame areas 102 of the display substrate is relatively large, the distribution area of the first shift register EM and the second shift register Gate N is relatively large. Figure 21 The distribution of the gate drive circuit is significantly reduced, so the distribution area of the first shift register EM and the second shift register Gate N in the frame area 102 on either side can be relatively elongated, thereby reducing the occupied area and space of the first shift register EM and the second shift register Gate N in the width direction of the frame area 102 on either side, thereby reducing the width of the left and right side frame areas 102 of the display substrate and achieving a narrow frame.

[0211] For example, one of the first power supply voltage line VDD and the second power supply terminal VSS may be a high voltage terminal, and the other may be a low voltage terminal. For example, the first power supply voltage line VDD may be a voltage source that outputs a constant first voltage, where the first voltage is a positive voltage; and the second power supply terminal VSS may be a voltage source that outputs a constant second voltage, where the second voltage is a negative voltage. For example, in some examples, the second power supply terminal VSS may be grounded.

[0212] In some embodiments, the light-emitting element D may be a micro inorganic light-emitting diode, and further, may be a current-type light-emitting diode, such as a micro light-emitting diode (Micro LED) or a mini light-emitting diode (Mini LED). Of course, the light-emitting element D in the embodiments of the invention may also be an organic light-emitting diode (OLED). One of the first electrode and the second electrode of the light-emitting element D is an anode, and the other is a cathode; in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first electrode of the light-emitting element D is an anode, and the second electrode is a cathode.

[0213] In some embodiments, reference Figure 23 , for the embodiment of the present disclosure Figure 17 The working timing diagram of the pixel driving circuit in FIG. The driving method of the pixel driving circuit may include the following stages:

[0214] Reset phase (t1): A high-level signal is written to the first reset control line Gate N (2n-14), a high-level signal is written to the second reset control line Gate P (2n+1), a low-level signal is written to the first scan line Gate N (2n), a high-level signal is written to the second scan line Gate P (2n), and a high-level signal is written to the light-emitting control line EM (2n). The first reset transistor T1 and the second reset transistor T7 are turned on, driving the initialization voltage written by the first reset power line Vinit1 to the gate of the transistor T3, preparing for the writing of the data voltage Vdata for the next frame. The anode of the light-emitting element D is written with the initialization voltage (initialization voltage ≤ VSS) via the second reset power line Vinit2 connected to the second reset transistor T7, so that the light-emitting element D is no longer in the forward conduction state, and the internal electric field formed by the directional movement of impurity ions in the light-emitting element D gradually disappears, thereby restoring the characteristics of the light-emitting element D.

[0215] Data writing and threshold compensation phase (t2): A high-level signal is written to the first scan line Gate N (2n), a low-level signal is written to the first reset control line Gate N (2n-14), and a high-level signal is written to the emission control line EM (2n). The data writing transistor T4 and the threshold compensation transistor T2 are turned on. The driving transistor T3 is connected to form a diode structure by the threshold compensation transistor T2. The data voltage Vdata written on the data line Data is written to the gate of the driving transistor T3 through the data writing transistor T4 and the threshold compensation transistor T2 until the driving transistor T3 is turned off. The gate voltage of the driving transistor T3 is Vdata + Vth (Vth < 0, Vth is the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T3) and is stored in the storage capacitor Cst. The voltages of the first and second plates of the storage capacitor Cst are Vdata + Vth and Vd, respectively.

[0216] Light-emitting phase (t3): A low-level signal is written to the light-emitting control line EM (2n), and low-level signals are written to the first scan line Gate N (2n) and the first reset control line Gate N (2n-14). The first light-emitting control transistor T5 and the second light-emitting control transistor T6 are both turned on. The source of the driving transistor T3 is connected to the first power supply voltage line VDD, and the source voltage of the driving transistor T3 changes instantaneously from Vdata in the previous phase to Vdd. The light-emitting element D emits light under the drive transistor T3. At this time, the driving transistor T3 operates in the saturation region. The gate voltage of the driving transistor T3 is Vdata + Vth, and the source voltage of the driving transistor T3 is Vdd. Therefore, the gate-source voltage of the driving transistor T3 is: Vgs = (Vdata + Vth) - Vdd, until the reset phase of the next frame.

[0217] The light-emitting current of the light-emitting element D is equal to the current flowing through the driving transistor T3, and its expression is as follows:

[0218] ID=β(Vgs-Vth) 2

[0219] =β(Vdata+Vth-dd-Vth) 2

[0220] =β(Vdata-Vdd) 2 (1)

[0221] in, μ n is the electron mobility of the driving transistor T3, C ox is the insulation capacitance per unit area, is the width-to-length ratio of the driving transistor T3.
