Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of application number 202210826857.3 filed on July 13, 2022, entitled "Pixel Structure, Display Panel and Display Device". Technical Field
[0002] This application relates to the field of display device technology, and more particularly to the field of pixel arrangement technology, specifically to a pixel structure, display panel, and display device. Background Technology
[0003] With the continuous innovation and improvement of display technology, display panel design solutions are becoming increasingly diversified. One existing display panel has a main display area and an under-display camera area, which is the area on the display panel where the CUP (Camera Under Panel) is installed. To achieve under-display imaging, the current mainstream approach is to reduce the number or size of the sub-pixels arranged in the under-display camera area. However, since the sub-pixels in existing display panels are displayed independently, reducing the number will affect the display effect, while reducing the size will easily lead to faster brightness decay in the under-display camera area, affecting the lifespan of the sub-pixels. Summary of the Invention

[0007] According to one embodiment of this application, the pixel unit is set to three, and the virtual graphics are set to three correspondingly. The edges of the three virtual graphics are adjacent to each other to form three virtual common edges that are intersected in pairs between the three virtual graphics. The row direction and column direction of the pixel position of each virtual graphic extend along any two of the directions of the three virtual common edges.

[0009] Wherein, the total luminous area of the blue sub-pixel is S BThe total luminous area of the green sub-pixel is S. G The total luminous area of the red sub-pixel is S. R S B >S G >S R .
[0010] According to one embodiment of this application, the pixel unit in the pixel structure is divided into at least one first pixel unit and at least two second pixel units;
[0011] The light-emitting area of the first pixel unit is greater than that of the second pixel unit.
[0012] According to one embodiment of this application, the light-emitting area of each of the second pixel units is the same.

[0014] Among them, the total luminous area of the blue sub-pixel in the first pixel unit is relatively the largest, and the total luminous area of the green sub-pixel in the second pixel unit is relatively the largest.
[0015] According to one embodiment of this application, the pixel positions within the virtual graphic arranged by the first pixel units are left vacant; or...
[0016] The pixel positions within the virtual graphic arranged for the second pixel unit are left vacant.
[0017] In addition, to achieve the above objectives, this application embodiment also provides a display panel, wherein the display panel is arranged in an array of multiple pixel structures, each pixel structure includes at least three pixel units, each pixel unit includes at least two pixel groups arranged in a virtual graphic, the virtual graphic is provided with multiple pixel positions arranged in an array, and each pixel position can be selectively set or left empty by a pixel group.

[0019] According to one embodiment of this application, the display panel has a main display area and an under-display camera area, and a plurality of pixel structures are respectively arranged in the main display area and the under-display camera area;
[0020] In the virtual graphic corresponding to each pixel structure located within the under-screen camera area, at least some of the pixel positions are vacant.
[0021] In addition, to achieve the above objectives, this application also provides a display device, which includes a display panel, the display panel including at least three pixel units, each pixel unit including at least two pixel groups arranged in a virtual graphic, the virtual graphic having a plurality of pixel positions arranged in an array, each pixel position being selectively set or left vacant by a pixel group;

Combined with the fact that each pair of adjacent virtual graphics is arranged in a cross-row or column direction, at least some sub-pixels in the pixel groups arranged within each pair of virtual graphics are borrowed to achieve pixel rendering and obtain luminous compensation.

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0036] A type of display panel with a CUP (Camera Under Panel) is currently popular among users due to its advantages such as eliminating the camera hole and achieving a high screen-to-body ratio. The multiple sub-pixels in the display area of a display panel generally have the same structure and are arranged in an array along two dimensional directions of the display area. Based on this, the mainstream arrangement methods for pixels in the under-display camera area are: First, directly removing some sub-pixels. The main drawback is that the number of sub-pixels removed is difficult to control. Removing too many sub-pixels can easily affect the display effect, while removing too few can easily affect the light transmittance, resulting in poor image quality. Second, directly reducing the size of the sub-pixels. The main drawback is that since the sub-pixels are not removed, they still obstruct light transmission, resulting in poor light transmittance. Furthermore, because the sub-pixels are smaller, their luminous efficiency requirements are higher, and prolonged use can cause the brightness of the under-display camera area to decay faster than that of the main display area.
[0037] In view of the above, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 9This application provides a pixel structure 20, which is applied in a display panel 10. The pixel structure 20 includes at least three pixel units 200, each pixel unit 200 including at least two pixel groups 210 arranged within a virtual graphic 30. The virtual graphic 30 has a plurality of pixel positions 310 arranged in an array, and each pixel position 310 can be selectively set or left vacant by a pixel group 210; wherein, the row direction or column direction of the pixel positions 310 between any two virtual graphics 30 are intersected.
[0038] The technical effects of this application embodiment are as follows: The setting of pixel position 310 helps to ensure the orderly position and accurate installation when pixel group 210 is arranged; each pixel position 310 can be selected to be installed or not installed by a pixel group 210, which helps to provide multiple arrangement schemes for pixel group 210; when all pixel positions 310 in the same virtual graphic 30 are installed with a corresponding pixel group 210, the virtual graphic 30 is in a fully loaded state, which helps to enhance the display effect and is suitable for setting in the main display area 110; when at least some pixel positions 310 in the same virtual graphic 30 are empty, the virtual graphic 30 is in a half-loaded state, which helps to enhance the light transmission effect and is suitable for setting in the under-screen camera area 120. In this application, the row or column directions of each pair of adjacent virtual graphics 30 are arranged in an intersecting manner, so that at least some of the sub-pixels in the pixel group 210 arranged in each pair of virtual graphics 30 are borrowed to achieve pixel rendering and obtain light emission compensation. Thus, even if the number of pixel groups 210 is appropriately reduced and / or the size is appropriately reduced, the light emission requirement can still be met while improving the light transmittance of the area, so that the same pixel structure 20 can flexibly accommodate the display requirements of different display areas.
[0039] In the embodiments of this application, the smallest pixel unit in each pixel structure 20 is a sub-pixel, and each pixel group 210 includes at least two sub-pixels. For ease of understanding, in the following embodiments, examples are used to illustrate this. Figure 3 The illustration shows an example where each pixel group 210 includes two sub-pixels. Of course, in other embodiments, each pixel group 210 can be configured to include three or more sub-pixels, depending on actual needs.
[0040] Since all sub-pixels in each pixel structure 20 can be divided into at least one red sub-pixel 211, at least one blue sub-pixel 212, and at least one green sub-pixel 213, for ease of understanding, if the red sub-pixel 211, blue sub-pixel 212, and green sub-pixel 213 are considered as a color group, then in actual arrangement, adjacent sub-pixels should be combined to form at least one color group as much as possible. Specifically, for example, when each pixel group 210 includes three or more sub-pixels, the sub-pixels in each pixel group 210 can be combined to form at least one color group. Alternatively, when each pixel group 210 includes two sub-pixels, the sub-pixels arranged adjacent to each two adjacent pixel groups 210 or adjacent two adjacent pixel units 200 can be combined to form at least one color group.
[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the number of virtual graphics 30 is consistent with the number of pixel units 200. The virtual graphics 30 define specific setting areas for the corresponding pixel units 200, ensuring that the setting of each pixel unit 200 is orderly and accurate. It can be understood that the virtual graphics 30 has at least one edge, which together enclose and define a closed shape. In the pixel units 200 corresponding to the virtual graphics 30, all pixel groups 210 are either set within the closed shape or at the edge of the closed shape.
[0042] The virtual graphic 30 contains multiple pixel positions 310, which are arranged in an array along any two dimensional directions of the virtual graphic 30. These two dimensional directions constitute the row and column directions of the multiple pixel positions 310 in the virtual graphic 30, respectively. Each pixel position 310 can be selectively set or left empty by a pixel group 210. For example... Figure 3 As shown, when each pixel 310 within the virtual graphic 30 is correspondingly assigned a pixel group 210, the virtual graphic 30 is essentially in a fully loaded state, possessing the largest display area within its design scope, thus enhancing the display effect; for example... Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, when at least some of the pixel positions 310 within the virtual graphic 30 are empty, the virtual graphic 30 is essentially in a half-loaded state, reducing the display area to some extent and weakening the display effect. However, the empty pixel positions 310 do not block the projected light, thus increasing the light-transmitting area and enhancing the light transmission effect. It should be noted that, in specific applications, "empty" can refer to leaving the corresponding area blank without plating sub-pixels, or to setting the corresponding area as a cutout.
[0043] Therefore, in practical applications, by setting all virtual graphics 30 in the pixel structure 20 to be in a fully loaded state (for ease of understanding, this pixel structure is defined as the first pixel structure 21 below), or by purposefully selecting some virtual graphics 30 to be in a half-loaded state (for ease of understanding, this pixel structure is defined as the second pixel structure 22 below), different display effects and light transmission effects can be achieved. This makes the pixel structure 20 in this embodiment compatible with different display panels 10 that have different display requirements, or different display areas of the same display panel 10.
[0044] It should be noted that in practical applications, the virtual graphic 30 itself, its edges, pixels 310, etc., can be visually displayed on the display panel 10 through specific markers. However, generally, the virtual graphic 30 itself, its edges, pixels 310, etc., are not visible on the display panel 10, and are only used to indicate the arrangement of pixel units 200 and pixel groups 210 during the processing of the display panel 10, and are not limited to being reflected on the finished display panel 10. Furthermore, the aforementioned half-loaded state is not limited to being half of the full-loaded state; any state between the full-loaded state and the idle state is referred to as the half-loaded state, and the idle state is the state when all pixels 310 within the virtual graphic 30 are idle.
[0045] In view of the above, each virtual graphic 30 defines the row and column directions for the array arrangement of its respective pixel positions 310. Further, in one embodiment, the row directions of any two virtual graphics 30 are defined to be intersecting, or the column directions of any two virtual graphics 30 are defined to be intersecting. The intersecting arrangement means that the two row directions or the two column directions do not overlap, are not collinear, and are not parallel to each other, and are at least deviated by a certain angle. When multiple pixel structures 20 are arrayed, when the pixel groups 210 of any two pixel units 200 are arranged at a certain angle, the pixel group 210 of the remaining pixel unit 200 is contained within the range of the angle, so that at least one red sub-pixel 211, or blue sub-pixel 212, or green sub-pixel 213 is shared in at least two color groups by borrowing colors, realizing pixel rendering and helping to improve the display effect of the area. Thus, while meeting the same display requirements of the display panel 10, the number of sub-pixels in this embodiment can be reduced to a certain extent, or the size of the sub-pixels can be reduced to a certain size, which helps to improve light transmittance. Conversely, while meeting the same light transmittance requirements of the display panel 10, the pixel rendering in this embodiment enhances the display effect. This embodiment is not only compatible with display panels 10 or display areas with different requirements, but also balances the display effect and light transmittance effect as a whole. For example, when applied to the under-display camera area 120, it helps to overcome the brightness attenuation problem of the under-display camera area 120 in conventional technologies.
[0046] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the pixel unit 200 is set to three, and the virtual graphic 30 is set to three correspondingly. The edges of the three virtual graphics 30 are adjacent to each other to form three virtual common edges 320 that are arranged in pairs and intersecting each other. The row direction and column direction of the pixel position 310 of each virtual graphic 30 extend along any two of the directions of the three virtual common edges 320.
[0047] It is understood that this application does not limit the specific shape of the virtual graphic 30 or the specific shape of each sub-pixel. The shape of the virtual graphic 30 can be any polygon, such as a parallelogram or a regular hexagon. To ensure that the multiple pixel structures 20 are arranged as compactly as possible without interference when arrayed, embodiments of this application further configure the shapes of the sub-pixels arranged within each virtual graphic 30, and the shape formed by the overall enclosure of all sub-pixels, to be as compatible as possible with the shape of the virtual graphic 30. For example, see attached... Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the virtual graphic 30 is roughly rhomboid in shape, so each sub-pixel is roughly rhomboid in shape, and the shape formed by the two pixel groups 210 and four sub-pixels within the virtual graphic 30 is roughly rhomboid in shape.
[0048] It should be noted that the shape of the virtual graphic 30 described in this embodiment mainly refers to the shape enclosed by the main edges of the virtual graphic 30. These main edges are those related to the sub-pixel arrangement and do not include, for example, the short edges connecting the corners enclosed by two partially adjacent main edges. Based on this, an appendix can be defined. Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 The virtual graphic 30 shown is roughly rhomboid rather than pentagonal or hexagonal, in order to understand the scheme of the embodiments of this application.
[0049] Since the edges of the three virtual graphics 30 are adjacent to each other, the three virtual common edges 320 defined by the three virtual graphics 30 extend outward from the same common point and are arranged in pairs, with the sum of the included angles between each pair being 360°. This helps to make the pixel group 210 of the three pixel units 200 compact and achieve pixel rendering. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 3If the three virtual common edges 320 defined by the three virtual graphics 30 are A1, A2 and A3 respectively, and the three pixel units 200 in the pixel structure 20 are divided into a first pixel unit 201 and two second pixel units 202, the row direction of the virtual graphics 30 corresponding to the first pixel unit 201 extends along the direction of A2 and the column direction extends along the direction of A1; the row direction of the virtual graphics 30 corresponding to one of the two second pixel units 202 extends along the direction of A3 and the column direction extends along the direction of A1, and the row direction of the virtual graphics 30 corresponding to the other extends along the direction of A3 and the column direction extends along the direction of A2.
[0050] Furthermore, in one embodiment, any two of the three virtual common edges 320 may be non-perpendicular. This allows the pixel units 200 of the three adjacent pixel structures 20 to be arranged in a cross-shaped row or column direction when they are adjacent to each other.
[0051] As described above, the pixel structure 20 includes a plurality of red sub-pixels 211, a plurality of blue sub-pixels 212, and a plurality of green sub-pixels 213. In one embodiment, the total light-emitting area of the blue sub-pixels 212 is S. B The total luminous area of the green sub-pixel 213 is S. G The total luminous area of the red sub-pixel 211 is S. R S B >S G >S R It is understandable that, since green is located in the middle of the visible light spectrum, according to the photometric curve, green is more easily perceived and captured than blue and red. This means that when a problem occurs with the green sub-pixel 213 on the display panel 10, it is more easily detected by the human eye. Therefore, the design must ensure a sufficient number and luminous area of green sub-pixels 213. Since red is located at the edge of the visible light spectrum, the human eye perceives red less strongly, so the number and luminous area of red sub-pixels 211 can be appropriately reduced. The luminous efficiency of blue sub-pixels 212 is generally lower than that of red sub-pixels 211 and green sub-pixels 213. To achieve a luminous effect comparable to red and green sub-pixels 211, the luminous area of blue sub-pixels 212 is set to the maximum to increase their brightness and reduce the current flowing through them. This helps to extend the lifespan of the display panel 10.
[0052] Furthermore, based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 9The pixel unit 200 in the pixel structure 20 is divided into at least one first pixel unit 201 and at least two second pixel units 202. For example, as shown in the attached figures, the pixel structure 20 in this embodiment has three pixel units 200, namely one first pixel unit 201 and two second pixel units 202. Further, the light-emitting area of the first pixel unit 201 is set to be larger than the light-emitting area of the second pixel unit 202. Thus, when the number of sub-pixels in each pixel unit 200 is the same, the selection is as follows... Figure 6 As shown, when the pixel positions 310 of the two second pixel units 202 are left vacant, it is equivalent to reducing the number of sub-pixels by two-thirds, but the reduction in the light-emitting area is less than two-thirds. This increases light transmittance while ensuring sufficient light emission. Choosing... Figure 9 When pixel position 310 of the first pixel unit 201 is left vacant, it is equivalent to reducing the number of sub-pixels by one-third, while the light-emitting area is reduced by more than one-third.
[0053] Of course, when multiple second pixel units 202 are set in this embodiment, the shape and size of the virtual graphics 30 corresponding to the multiple second pixel units 202, the arrangement, shape and size of the pixel group 210, etc., can all be set the same, or at least partially different, depending on the actual application requirements. Specifically, in one embodiment, the light-emitting area of each second pixel unit 202 is the same. In this way, the light-emitting area of any second pixel unit 202 is smaller than the light-emitting area of the first pixel unit 201, but the sum of the light-emitting areas of a certain number of second pixel units 202 is greater than the light-emitting area of the first pixel unit 201, which helps to diversify the form of the pixel structure 20 and can adapt to more display requirements.
[0054] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the total luminous area of the blue sub-pixel 212 within the first pixel unit 201 is relatively the largest, and the total luminous area of the green sub-pixel 213 within the second pixel unit 202 is relatively the largest. This arrangement ensures that the entire pixel structure 20 satisfies the aforementioned S... B >S G >S R The limitation of color can also make the color emphasis of each pixel unit 200 different, which also helps to make the pixel structure 20 more diverse and adaptable to more display needs.
[0055] Of course, in practical applications, the pixel positions 310 corresponding to any pixel group 210 in any pixel unit 200 can be selectively left vacant, as long as it satisfies that when multiple pixel structures 20 are arranged in an array, any color sub-pixel has two remaining color sub-pixels in its vicinity to form a color group. Specifically, such as Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the pixel positions 310 within the virtual graphic 30 arranged in the second pixel unit 202 can be left vacant. This pixel structure 20 constitutes the first pixel structure 21, which, as described above, is equivalent to reducing the number of sub-pixels by two-thirds, but the reduction in light-emitting area is less than two-thirds, thus increasing light transmittance while ensuring sufficient light emission. Alternatively, as... Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the pixel position 310 in the virtual graphic 30 arranged by the first pixel unit 201 can be left empty, and the pixel structure 20 constitutes the second pixel structure 22, which can reduce the number of sub-pixels by one-third and the light-emitting area by more than one-third, as described above, to meet specific display requirements.
[0056] In addition, please see Figure 1 This application also provides a display panel 10, which includes a plurality of pixel structures 20 arranged in an array, wherein the pixel structures 20 are as described above. It should be noted that the detailed structure of the pixel structures 20 within the display panel 10 can be referred to the embodiments of the pixel structures 20 described above, and will not be repeated here. Since the display panel 10 of this application uses the aforementioned pixel structures 20, the embodiments of the display panel 10 of this application include all the technical solutions of all the embodiments of the aforementioned pixel structures 20, and the achieved technical effects are also completely the same, and will not be repeated here.
[0057] When practically applied to the display panel 10, the pixel structure 20 described in the above embodiments is the smallest repeating unit in pixel arrangement. Multiple pixel structures 20 can be arranged in an array on the display panel 10 along any dimensional direction.
[0058] Further, please refer to Figure 1 The display panel 10 can form two display areas. The two display areas have different requirements for display effect and light transmission effect. In this case, by selectively setting or leaving empty each pixel position 310 in the pixel structure 20, the same pixel structure 20 can be compatible with the two different display areas.
[0059] The specific form of the two display areas is not limited. In one embodiment, one of the two display areas is a main display area 110, and the other is a secondary display area. The secondary display area can correspond to the area on the display panel 10 for mounting the under-display camera, or the area for mounting other sensors or components. However, since under-display cameras are widely used, for ease of understanding, the following description will use the example of the display panel 10 forming a main display area 110 and an under-display camera area 120.
[0060] Based on the above, the plurality of pixel structures 20 are arranged in an array within the main display area 110 and the under-display camera area 120, respectively. In the virtual graphic 30 corresponding to each pixel structure 20 located within the under-display camera area 120, at least a portion of the pixel positions 310 are vacant; in this case, the pixel structure 20 constitutes a second pixel structure 22.
[0061] For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 2 to 4 As shown, when all virtual graphics 30 of each pixel structure 20 are in a fully loaded state, that is, when each pixel position 310 is provided with a pixel group 210, a first pixel structure 21 is formed. The light-emitting area of the first pixel structure 21 reaches its maximum and can be applied to the main display area 110. (The attached text appears to be incomplete and requires further context.)
