The first electrode of the sixth transistor T6 is connected to the second electrode of the driving transistor T3, and the gate is connected to the enable signal terminal EM. The first electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is connected to the second initial signal terminal Vinit2, the second electrode is connected to the second electrode of the sixth transistor T6, and the gate is connected to the second reset signal terminal Re2.

The first electrode of the capacitor is connected to the gate of the driving transistor T3, and the second electrode is connected to the first power supply terminal VDD. This pixel driving circuit can be used to drive the light-emitting unit OLED to emit light. The first electrode of the light-emitting unit OLED is connected to the second electrode of the sixth transistor T6, and the second electrode of the light-emitting unit OLED is connected to the second power supply terminal VSS.

Here, EM represents the timing of the enable signal; G1 represents the timing of the first gate drive signal; G2 represents the timing of the second gate drive signal; Re1 represents the timing of the first reset signal; and Re2 represents the timing of the second reset signal.

[0058] The driving method of the pixel driving circuit in this disclosure may include a reset phase t2, a data writing phase t4, and a light-emitting phase t6. In the reset phase t2: the second gate driving signal terminal G2 outputs a high level, the first reset signal terminal Re1 and the second reset signal terminal Re2 output a low level, the eighth transistor T8, the first transistor T1, the seventh transistor T7, and the ninth transistor T9 are turned on, the first initial signal terminal Vinit1 inputs a first initial signal to the gate of the driving transistor T3 through the first transistor T1 and the eighth transistor T8, the second initial signal terminal Vinit2 inputs a second initial signal to the first electrode of the light-emitting unit through the seventh transistor T7, and the third initial signal terminal Vinit3 inputs a third initial signal to the first electrode of the driving transistor T3 through the ninth transistor T9.

In the re-reset stage t5: the second reset signal terminal Re2 outputs a low-level signal, the ninth transistor T9 is turned on, and the third initial signal terminal Vinit3 again sends a third initial signal to the first electrode of the driving transistor T3.

Multiple first sub-initial signal lines Vinit21 and multiple second sub-initial signal lines Vinit22 can form a grid structure. The second initial signal lines Vinit2 in the grid structure have lower resistance, thereby reducing the voltage difference between the second initial signal terminals at different positions on the display panel. In this exemplary embodiment, as... Figure 19As shown, the orthographic projection of the mirror symmetry plane BB onto the substrate can be located on the orthographic projection of the second sub-initial signal line Vinit22 onto the substrate. It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, the second initial signal line Vinit2 can also have other arrangements. For example, a multi-row pixel driving circuit can be correspondingly provided with a first sub-initial signal line Vinit21 and / or a multi-column repeating unit can be correspondingly provided with a second sub-initial signal line Vinit22.

At the end of the data writing phase, the voltage of the first gate line G1 increases, and the first gate line G1 can pull up the voltage of the gate of the driving transistor T3. This arrangement can reduce the voltage of the data signal when the display panel is in black, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display panel.

Furthermore, the orthographic projection of the second power line segment VDD2 on the substrate may also cover the orthographic projection of the eighth active part 88 on the substrate, and the second power line segment VDD2 can reduce the influence of light on the characteristics of the eighth transistor T8. Furthermore, the orthogonal projection of the power line VDD onto the substrate can also cover the orthogonal projections of the twentieth active section 820 and the fourth bridge section 44 onto the substrate. The power line VDD can be used to shield the twentieth active section 820 and the fourth bridge section 44 from noise interference from other signals, thereby improving the stability of the gate voltage of the driving transistor T3. The tenth bridge section 510 can be connected to the sixth bridge section 46 via a via to connect to the second terminal of the sixth transistor T6.

[0076] like Figure 3 , 11 As shown in Figure 19, in this exemplary embodiment, adjacent second power supply segments VDD2 can be interconnected within the same repeating unit. The power supply line VDD and the second conductive portion 22 connected in the first direction X can form a grid structure. The power supply lines of this grid structure have low resistance, thereby reducing the voltage difference between the first power supply terminals at different locations on the display panel and improving the uniformity of the display panel display.

[0077] like Figure 3 , 12 As shown in Figures 20, 21, and 22, Figure 20 This is a structural layout of the fifth conductive layer and electrode layer in an exemplary embodiment of the display panel disclosed herein. Figure 21 for Figure 20 Schematic diagram of the fifth conductive layer. Figure 22 for Figure 20 The structural layout of the middle electrode layer. In this exemplary embodiment, the electrode layer may include multiple electrode portions: a first electrode portion R, a third electrode portion G, and a second electrode portion B. Each electrode portion can be connected to the tenth bridge portion 510 via a via to connect to the second electrode of the sixth transistor T6. The first electrode portion R can be used to form the first electrode of a red light-emitting unit, the second electrode portion B can be used to form the first electrode of a blue light-emitting unit, and the third electrode portion G can be used to form the first electrode of a green light-emitting unit. The multiple electrode portions are arrayed along a first direction X and a second direction Y. The multiple electrode portions distributed along the first direction X form an electrode row, and the multiple electrode portions distributed along the second direction Y form an electrode column. In the same electrode row, the first electrode portion R, the third electrode portion G, the second electrode portion B, and the third electrode portion G are sequentially and alternately distributed along the first direction X. Multiple electrode rows include sequentially adjacent first electrode rows ROW1, second electrode rows ROW2, third electrode rows ROW3, ​​and fourth electrode rows ROW4.

Second electrode row ROW2 includes multiple third electrode portions G distributed in the second direction Y. Third electrode row ROW3 includes second electrode portions B and first electrode portions R alternately distributed in the second direction Y.

The minimum distance K1 between the orthogonal projections of two third electrode portions G located in adjacent electrode rows of the same electrode row on the substrate in the second direction Y is greater than the size K2 of the orthogonal projection of the first electrode portion R on the substrate in the second direction Y, or greater than the size K3 of the orthogonal projection of the second electrode portion B on the substrate in the second direction Y. In this configuration, the orthographic projection of the first electrode portion R on the substrate coincides with the orthographic projection of its corresponding opening on the substrate on the pixel definition layer; the orthographic projection of the second electrode portion B on the substrate coincides with the orthographic projection of its corresponding opening on the substrate on the pixel definition layer; and the orthographic projection of the third electrode portion G on the substrate coincides with the orthographic projection of its corresponding opening on the substrate on the pixel definition layer.

[0078] like Figure 20 , 21As shown in Figure 22, the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the first electrode portion R onto the substrate is larger than the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the third electrode portion G onto the substrate, but smaller than the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the second electrode portion B onto the substrate. In the same repeating unit, two connected second power supply segments VDD2 form a power supply portion. The plurality of power supply portions include: a first power supply portion Vx1 corresponding to the first electrode portion R, and a second power supply portion Vx2 corresponding to the second electrode portion B. The orthographic projections of the first electrode portion R onto the substrate and the corresponding first power supply portion Vx1 onto the substrate at least partially overlap, and the orthographic projections of the second electrode portion B onto the substrate and the corresponding second power supply portion Vx2 onto the substrate at least partially overlap.

[0079] like Figure 20 , 21 As shown in Figure 22, the overlapping area of ​​the orthographic projection of the first electrode portion R on the substrate and the orthographic projection of its corresponding first power supply portion Vx1 on the substrate is B1, and the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the first electrode portion R on the substrate is B2. B1 / B2 can be greater than or equal to 80%, for example, B1 / B2 can be equal to 80%, 90%, 95%, or 100%. When B1 / B2 equals 100%, the orthographic projection of the first electrode portion R on the substrate lies on the orthographic projection of its corresponding first power supply portion Vx1 on the substrate. The overlapping area of ​​the orthographic projection of the second electrode portion B on the substrate and the orthographic projection of its corresponding second power supply portion Vx2 on the substrate is C1, and the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the second electrode portion B on the substrate is C2. C1 / C2 can be greater than or equal to 80%, for example, C1 / C2 can be equal to 80%, 90%, 95%, or 100%. When C1 / C2 equals 100%, the orthogonal projection of the second electrode part B on the substrate is located on the orthogonal projection of the corresponding second power supply part Vx2 on the substrate.

In this exemplary embodiment, by increasing the area of ​​the second power supply unit Vx2 on the substrate, the orthographic projection of all or most of the structure of the second electrode unit B onto the substrate can be located on the orthographic projection of the second power supply unit Vx2 onto the substrate, thereby improving the flatness of the second electrode unit B and reducing the risk of color shift in the display panel at different viewing angles. In this exemplary embodiment, the overlapping area of ​​the orthographic projection of the second power supply unit Vx2 onto the substrate and the orthographic projection of the corresponding second electrode unit B onto the substrate can be greater than the overlapping area of ​​the orthographic projection of the first power supply unit Vx1 onto the substrate and the orthographic projection of the corresponding first electrode unit R onto the substrate.

[0084] It should be noted that the scale of the accompanying drawings in this disclosure can be used as a reference in actual processes, but is not limited thereto. For example, the aspect ratio of the channel, the thickness and spacing of each film layer, and the width and spacing of each signal line can be adjusted according to actual needs. The number of pixels in the display substrate and the number of sub-pixels in each pixel are not limited to the quantities shown in the figures. The accompanying drawings described in this disclosure are only schematic diagrams of the structure. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to define different structural names and do not have a specific order meaning. In this exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of a certain structure on the substrate extends along a certain direction, which can be understood as the orthographic projection of the structure on the substrate extending in a straight line or bending along that direction. A transistor is a device that includes at least three terminals: a gate, a drain, and a source. A transistor has a channel region between the drain (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and the source (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain, the channel region, and the source. In this exemplary embodiment, the channel region refers to the region through which current mainly flows. In this exemplary embodiment, the first electrode can be the drain and the second electrode can be the source, or vice versa. When using transistors with opposite polarities or when the current direction changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source" and "drain" are sometimes interchanged. Therefore, in this exemplary embodiment, the "source" and "drain" can be interchanged. Additionally, the gate can also be referred to as the control electrode.

[0085] like Figure 24 As shown, Figure 1 The diagram shows the timing diagram of signals at each node in another driving method of the pixel driving circuit shown. Here, EM represents the timing diagram of the signals at the enable signal terminal; G1 represents the timing diagram of the signals at the first gate drive signal terminal; G2 represents the timing diagram of the signals at the second gate drive signal terminal; Re1 represents the timing diagram of the signals at the first reset signal terminal; and Re2 represents the timing diagram of the signals at the second reset signal terminal. This driving method is similar to... Figure 2 The driving method shown may differ only in the timing of the signals at the first reset signal terminal. In this exemplary embodiment, the first reset signal terminal and the second reset signal terminal may be provided with signals by different gate drive circuits. The first reset signal terminal may output a low-level signal only during the reset phase t2.

[0086] like Figure 25-26 As shown, Figure 25 This is a partial structural layout diagram of another exemplary embodiment of the display panel disclosed herein.

The twentieth active portion 820 can be connected to the coupling portion 25 via vias.

This setting can reduce the black state voltage of the display panel, or reduce the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the twentieth active portion 820 on the substrate while keeping the black state voltage constant.
