AI Technical Summary
Existing OLED display panels have issues with via defects and uneven display in the under-display camera area, mainly due to the high resistance of the transparent signal lines, resulting in obstruction and a large resistance difference.
Metal signal lines are placed in the light-transmitting area of the display panel. By connecting the metal signal lines and the transparent signal lines in parallel, the resistance difference is reduced, the light transmittance is increased, and shading is reduced. A special arrangement of pixel circuit groups and a cross connection method of signal lines are adopted to ensure stable signal transmission.
It effectively reduces the defective vias in the under-display camera area, improves the light transmittance and display uniformity of the display panel, and ensures the stability of signal transmission and display effect.

[0153] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0154] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which includes a base substrate 1, a plurality of pixel circuit groups 2, a plurality of types of first signal lines 3, and a plurality of light-emitting units.
[0155] As shown in Figure 1, the substrate 1 has a first display area 11, which can be used to set an optical sensor. Optionally, the optical sensor can be a front-facing camera, and the first display area 11 can be a full display with camera (FDC) area. The substrate 1 can also have a second display area 12, which is adjacent to the first display area 11. Optionally, the second display area 12 can be the remaining display area of the substrate 1 except the first display area 11.
[0156] The first display area 11 may include multiple pixel circuit areas 111 and light-transmitting areas 112 . Each pixel circuit area 111 may be used to set a pixel circuit group 2 . The light-transmitting area 112 is an area where no pixel circuit group 2 is set, and its transmittance is higher than that of the pixel circuit area 111 .
[0157] Multiple pixel circuit groups 2 are located in multiple pixel circuit areas 111 of the first display area 11. As shown in Figure 2, each pixel circuit group 2 includes multiple pixel circuits 21, and the minimum distance between adjacent pixel circuit groups 2 is greater than the minimum distance between adjacent pixel circuits 21 in the pixel circuit group 2. In this way, compared with the arrangement of multiple pixel circuits uniformly arranged in the second display area 12, multiple pixel circuits 21 are gathered together in the first display area 11 to form a pixel circuit group 2, which can reduce the area occupied by these multiple pixel circuits 21, thereby increasing the area of the light-transmitting area 112 in the first display area 11, and thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0158] Multiple types of first signal lines 3 are connected to the pixel circuits 21 located in the first display area 11 for transmitting signals thereto. As shown in Figures 3 and 4 , in addition to the first signal lines 3 connected to the pixel circuits 21 located in the first display area 11, the display panel also includes multiple types of second signal lines 4 located in the second display area 12, which are connected to multiple pixel circuits located in the second display area 12. For each type of the first reset signal line Preset, the second reset signal line Preset_H, the first reset power line vinit1, the second reset power line vinit2, the third reset power line vinit3, the first gate signal line Gate_N, the second gate signal line Gate_P, the data signal line Data, the light-emitting control signal line EM and the driving power line VDD, at least one end of each second signal line 4 of this type is connected to the first signal line 3 of this type. The second signal line 4 can be used to transmit a signal to the pixel circuit connected to the second signal line 4, and can also be used to transmit a signal to the first signal line 3 connected to the second signal line. After receiving the signal, the first signal line 3 transmits it to the pixel circuit 21 connected to the first signal line 3 and located in the first display area 11.
[0159] Optionally, the first signal lines may include at least two types of gate signal lines Gate, emission control signal lines EM, first reset signal lines Preset, second reset signal lines Preset_H, data signal lines Data, reset power lines vinit, and drive power lines VDD. The data signal lines Data, reset power lines vinit, and drive signal lines VDD are longitudinal first signal lines 3 as shown in FIG3 , and the gate signal lines Gate, emission control signal lines EM, first reset signal lines Preset, and second reset signal lines Preset_H are transverse first signal lines 3 as shown in FIG4 .
[0160] Multiple light-emitting units are located in the first display area 11, and multiple pixel circuit groups 2 are configured to drive the multiple light-emitting units to emit light. Optionally, each light-emitting unit is electrically connected to a pixel circuit 21 in the pixel circuit group 2, and the pixel circuit 21 is used to drive the light-emitting unit to emit light.
[0161] The orthographic projections of at least some of the multiple light-emitting units on the base substrate 1 overlap with the orthographic projections of at least some of the line segments of the multiple types of first signal lines 3 located in the light-transmitting area 112 on the base substrate 1. This reduces the area of the light-transmitting area 112 blocked by the light-emitting units and the first signal lines 3, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0162] Optionally, the light-emitting unit may be located in the pixel circuit area 111 or in the light-transmitting area 112 , or a portion of the light-emitting unit may be located in the pixel circuit area 111 and another portion in the light-transmitting area 112 . This is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0163] In the under-screen camera area of the display panel in the related art, the signal lines connected to the pixel circuit are all transparent signal lines, and the signal lines in other display areas except the under-screen camera area are all metal signal lines. Since the resistance of the transparent signal line is much greater than that of the metal signal line, the difference in resistance between the two is large. Therefore, a more obvious via defect phenomenon will be generated around the under-screen camera area, resulting in uneven display of the display panel.
[0164] In the embodiment of the present application, some types of first signal lines 3 among the multiple types of first signal lines 3 in the first display area 11 are set to include metal signal lines, and the resistance of these types of first signal lines 3 is reduced by the metal signal lines, and the difference between the resistance of these types of first signal lines 3 and the resistance of the second signal lines 4 in the second display area 12 is reduced, thereby reducing the poor via phenomenon around the first display area 11 and improving the display uniformity of the display panel.
[0165] In the embodiment of the present application, the resistance of the first signal line 3 is reduced by configuring the first signal line 3 to include a metal signal line. There are many ways to configure the metal signal line, two of which are described below as examples:
[0166] The first arrangement of the metal signal lines: each of the first signal lines 3 of some types is a metal signal line.
[0167] In implementation, among the multiple types of first signal lines 3, some types of first signal lines 3 that have a greater impact on display brightness can be set as metal signal lines, and the remaining first signal lines 3 can be set as transparent signal lines. In this way, the difference between the resistance of this part of the first signal lines 3 and the resistance of the second signal lines 4 connected to the first signal lines 3 is smaller, or even reduced to 0, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11 while effectively reducing the poor via phenomenon around the first display area 11, thereby improving the display uniformity.
[0168] The second arrangement of the metal signal lines: each of the first signal lines 3 of some types includes a metal signal line and a transparent signal line connected in parallel.
[0169] In implementation, among the multiple types of first signal lines 3, some types of first signal lines 3 that have a greater impact on display brightness can be set as metal signal lines and transparent signal lines connected in parallel, that is, while using the transparent signal line to connect the first signal line 3 to the pixel circuit 21, the metal signal line is used to connect the first signal line 3 to the same pixel circuit 21. In this way, the parallel connection of the transparent signal line and the metal signal line can be realized, and the resistance of the transparent signal line is reduced by the metal signal line, thereby reducing the resistance difference between the first signal line 3 and the second signal line 4 connected to the first signal line 3, thereby reducing the poor via phenomenon around the first display area 11.
[0170] Optionally, in order to improve the light transmittance of the first display area 11, the occupied space of the pixel circuit group can be reduced as much as possible. When the occupied space of the pixel circuit group is small, the width of the metal signal line included in the above-mentioned partial type of first signal line 3 can be reduced to be smaller than the width of the second signal line 4, thereby ensuring the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0171] In this case, connecting a metal signal line with a slightly smaller width in parallel with the transparent signal line can also reduce the resistance of the first signal line 3 to a certain extent, thereby reducing the resistance difference between the first signal line 3 and the second signal line 4 connected to the first signal line 3, thereby reducing the poor via phenomenon around the first display area 11.
[0172] Optionally, the material of the transparent signal line in the embodiment of the present application is a conductive transparent material, for example, indium tin oxide (ITO).
[0173] The first signal line 3 including the metal signal line provided in the present application is of a type that has a greater impact on display brightness, and may include a longitudinal signal line or a transverse signal line.
[0174] Optionally, some types of first signal lines 3 may include at least one of a data signal line Data, a gate signal line Gate, and a light emitting control signal line EM.
[0175] The data signal line Data is a longitudinal signal line that has a greater impact on display brightness. Therefore, if the data signal line Data in the first display area 11 is set to include a metal signal line, the vertical via defect phenomenon in the first display area 11 can be effectively reduced.
[0176] The gate signal line Gate and the light-emitting control signal line EM are horizontal signal lines that have a greater impact on the display brightness. When setting, only the gate signal line Gate in the first display area 11 can be set to include a metal signal line, or only the light-emitting control signal line EM in the first display area 11 can be set to include a metal signal line, or both the gate signal line Gate and the light-emitting control signal line EM in the first display area 11 can be set to include a metal signal line, thereby reducing the defective via phenomenon in the horizontal direction of the first display area 11.
[0177] In an embodiment of the present application, the first signal line 3 can be arranged in a variety of ways. Optionally, at least part of the line segments of the metal signal line included in the first signal line 3 can be located in the light-transmitting area 112, and the orthographic projection of at least part of the multiple light-emitting units on the base substrate 1 overlaps with the orthographic projection of at least part of the line segments of the metal signal line on the base substrate 1.
[0178] The metal signal line and some of the light-emitting units in the light-emitting unit will block the light-transmitting area 112, thereby causing the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112 to decrease. In the embodiment of the present application, the partial line segments of the metal signal line located in the light-transmitting area 112 and at least some of the light-emitting units in the light-emitting unit are arranged in the same area, thereby improving the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112.
[0179] Optionally, at least some of the line segments of the transparent signal line included in the first signal line 3 are located in the light-transmitting area 112, and the orthographic projections of at least some of the plurality of light-emitting units on the base substrate 1 overlap with the orthographic projections of at least some of the transparent signal line on the base substrate 1. Similarly, by arranging the line segments of the transparent signal line located in the light-transmitting area 112 and at least some of the light-emitting units in the same area, the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112 is improved.
[0180] FIG5 is a partial structural diagram of multiple pixel circuit groups 2 in a first display area 11 according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG5 , in this embodiment, the multiple pixel circuit groups 2 include multiple first pixel circuit groups 2A and multiple second pixel circuit groups 2B. The multiple first pixel circuit groups 2A are arranged in multiple rows, each row of the first pixel circuit groups 2A includes multiple pixel circuits 21. The multiple second pixel circuit groups 2B are arranged in multiple rows, each row of the second pixel circuit groups 2B also includes multiple pixel circuits 21.
[0181] A row of second pixel circuit groups 2B is arranged between any two adjacent rows of first pixel circuit groups 2A, that is: in two adjacent rows of pixel circuit groups 2 in the first display area 11, one row of pixel circuit groups 2 is the first pixel circuit group 2A, and the other row of pixel circuit groups 2 is the second pixel circuit group 2B, and multiple rows of first pixel circuit groups 2A and multiple rows of second pixel circuit groups 2B are arranged alternately.
[0182] Furthermore, in any row of first pixel circuit groups 2A and a row of second pixel circuit groups 2B adjacent to the row of pixel circuit groups 2A, the position of the spacing region between any two adjacent first pixel circuit groups 2A corresponds to the position of one second pixel circuit group 2B.
[0183] It can be understood that the row direction of the multiple first pixel circuit groups 2A arranged in a row can be considered as a first direction parallel to the plane where the base substrate 1 is located. The first direction can be any direction and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
[0184] Each pixel circuit group 2 in the first pixel circuit group 2A and the second pixel circuit group 2B has the following structure:
[0185] Each pixel circuit group 2 includes at least one pixel circuit unit, and the pixel circuit unit includes a first pixel circuit 211, a second pixel circuit 212, and a third pixel circuit 213. That is, each pixel circuit group 2 may include one or more pixel circuit units. For example, the pixel circuit group 2 shown in FIG5 includes one pixel circuit unit, and the pixel circuit unit includes three pixel circuits (a first pixel circuit 211, a second pixel circuit 212, and a third pixel circuit 213). Alternatively, the pixel circuit group may include six pixel circuits, nine pixel circuits, and so on, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0186] In each pixel circuit unit, the second pixel circuit 212 is located between the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213. The first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 are arranged along the row direction of the plurality of pixel circuit groups 2. It can be understood that the row direction here is the first direction mentioned above.
[0187] FIG6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a pixel circuit group 2 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG6 , the pixel circuit group 2 includes a pixel circuit unit, namely, a first pixel circuit 211 , a second pixel circuit 212 and a third pixel circuit 213 .
[0188] Each light emitting unit may include a first light emitting element, two second light emitting elements and a third light emitting element, and at least one light emitting unit corresponds to a pixel circuit unit.
[0189] Among them, the first light-emitting element is connected to the first pixel circuit 211, that is, the anode of the first light-emitting element is connected to the first pixel circuit 211, and the first pixel circuit 211 can drive the first light-emitting element to emit light. In the embodiment of the present application, the orthographic projection of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the first pixel circuit 211 is located on the base substrate 1. Since the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element blocks light, overlapping at least part of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element with at least part of the pixel circuit group 2 where the first pixel circuit 211 is located can effectively reduce the shading area of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element to the first display area 11, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0190] Both second light-emitting elements are connected to the second pixel circuit 212, that is, the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements are connected to the second pixel circuit 212. In this way, one second pixel circuit 212 drives the two second light-emitting elements to emit light. Compared with the conventional pixel arrangement, the space of one second pixel circuit 212 is reduced, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0191] Furthermore, the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1 are located on opposite sides of the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1. Referring to FIG6 , the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1 are located on two sides of the second pixel circuit 212, and the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1, the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate 1, and the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate 1 surround the four sides of the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1. Optionally, the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements can be symmetrically arranged, and their axes of symmetry can be parallel to the first direction.
[0192] Optionally, the connection between the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements and the second pixel circuit 212 can be: the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements are connected via a first connection line L1, and the first connection line L1 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212. Optionally, the material of the first connection line L1 can be the anode material.
[0193] The third light-emitting element is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, and the third pixel circuit 213 drives the third light-emitting element to emit light. In the embodiment of the present application, the orthographic projection of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the third pixel circuit 213 is located on the substrate 1. Since the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element blocks light, overlapping at least a portion of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element with at least a portion of the pixel circuit group 2 where the third pixel circuit 213 is located can effectively reduce the area blocked by the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the first display area 11, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0194] The orthographic projection of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate 1. Since the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element is light-shielding, it is set in the area where the third pixel circuit 213, which is also light-shielding, is located. This can reduce the blocking effect of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the transparent area of the first display area 11, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0195] Optionally, the orthographic projection of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the substrate substrate 1 can be located within the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the first pixel circuit 211 is located on the substrate substrate 1, the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate substrate 1 do not overlap with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the second pixel circuit 212 is located on the substrate substrate 1, and the orthographic projection of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the substrate substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the third pixel circuit 213 is located on the substrate substrate 1.
[0196] In this way, by setting the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element in the area of the pixel circuit group 2 where the first pixel circuit 211 that is also shielded is located, the blocking effect of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the light-transmitting area 112 of the first display area 11 can be minimized, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0197] It can be understood that the above-mentioned orthographic projection of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate 1, which means that the orthographic projection of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the substrate 1 is located within the smallest square area where the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate 1 is located, or within the smallest complete shape area of other shapes.
[0198] Similarly, by setting the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element in the area of the pixel circuit group 2 where the third pixel circuit 213, which is also light-shielded, is located, the blocking effect of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the light-transmitting area 112 of the first display area 11 can be minimized, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0199] In order to ensure uniform arrangement of the multiple light-emitting elements in the first display area 11, on the basis of arranging the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on both sides of the second pixel circuit 212, it is also possible to arrange that the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the base substrate 1 do not overlap with the orthographic projections of the pixel circuit group 2 where the second pixel circuit 212 is located on the base substrate 1, that is, the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements can be located in the light-transmitting area 112 of the first display area 11. In this way, while reducing the obstruction of the light-transmitting area 112 by the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element and the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element, the uniformity of the distribution of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element, the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element and the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element is ensured.
[0200] In summary, in the above-mentioned pixel circuit group 2, the position setting of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element, the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element and the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element ensures that the multiple light-emitting elements in the first display area 11 and the second display area 12 are evenly arranged, while improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0201] Optionally, the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element, the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element, and the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element may all be circular in shape. Under the same area, the circular shape has a larger aperture ratio.
[0202] Optionally, based on the structural arrangement of the above pixel circuit group 2, the color distribution of the pixel circuits in the first pixel circuit group 2A and the second pixel circuit group 2B may be arranged as follows:
[0203] The first light emitting element, the second light emitting element and the third light emitting element may be a blue light emitting element, a green light emitting element and a red light emitting element respectively, and display an image by emitting blue light, green light and red light.
[0204] Correspondingly, as shown in Figure 5, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 of the pixel circuit unit of the first pixel circuit group 2A can be a pixel circuit for driving a blue light-emitting element, a pixel circuit for driving a green light-emitting element, and a pixel circuit for driving a red light-emitting element, respectively, and the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 of the pixel circuit unit of the second pixel circuit group 2B can also be a pixel circuit for driving a blue light-emitting element, a pixel circuit for driving a green light-emitting element, and a pixel circuit for driving a red light-emitting element, respectively.
[0205] Alternatively, as shown in Figure 7, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 of the pixel circuit unit of the second pixel circuit group 2B can be a pixel circuit for driving a red light-emitting element, a pixel circuit for driving a green light-emitting element, and a pixel circuit for driving a blue light-emitting element, respectively.
[0206] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a pixel circuit group 2 in the display panel shown in Figure 2. In Figure 8, one type of vertical signal line is configured to include a metal signal line, and the transverse signal lines and the remaining types of vertical signal lines are transparent signal lines. Referring to Figure 8, the metal signal line in the first signal line 3 may include a first portion 31, a second portion 32, and a third portion 33. The third portion 33 is located between the first portion 31 and the second portion 32, and the two ends of the third portion 33 are respectively connected to the first portion 31 and the second portion 32.
[0207] The first portion 31 and the second portion 32 are respectively connected to the pixel circuits 21 in two adjacent pixel circuit groups 2 . The orthographic projection of the third portion on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element on the base substrate 1 .
[0208] Such an arrangement can make the orthographic projection of a portion of the metal signal line (the third part 33) on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projection of the anode 52 of the third light-emitting element on the base substrate 1, thereby reducing the obstruction of the transparent area of the first display area 11 by the metal signal line, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0209] Optionally, the orthographic projections of the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projections of the third portions 33 of at least two metal signal lines on the base substrate 1. In this way, the third portions 33 of multiple metal signal lines can be overlapped with the anode of the second light-emitting element 52, thereby further improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0210] The overlapping portions of the at least two third portions 33 of the metal signal lines and the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element can be symmetrically arranged about the axis of symmetry of the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element, thereby improving the flatness of the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element. For example, when the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element is circular, the two third portions 33 can be symmetrical about a line passing through the center of the anode 52 of the second light-emitting element.

[0227] Fig. 10 is a schematic diagram showing the arrangement of various types of first signal lines 3 in a pixel circuit group 2 in the display panel shown in Fig. 2. Referring to Fig. 10, it can be seen that the pixel circuit group 2 includes one pixel circuit unit, namely, three pixel circuits 21.
[0228] Each type of horizontal signal line (including the first reset signal line Preset, the second reset signal line Preset_H, the first gate signal line Gate_N, the second gate signal line Gate_P, and the light-emitting control signal line EM) runs through the pixel circuit group 2 and is respectively connected to each pixel circuit 21 in the pixel circuit group 2.
[0229] For the data signal line Data in the vertical signal line, it includes data signal line Data-1, data signal line Data-2 and data signal line Data-3. As shown in Figures 8 and 10, the data signal line Data-1 runs through the first pixel circuit 211 and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the data signal line Data-2 runs through the second pixel circuit 212 and is connected to the second pixel circuit 212, and the data signal line Data-3 runs through the third pixel circuit 213 and is connected to the third pixel circuit 213.
[0230] For the first reset power line vinit1, the second reset power line vinit2 and the third reset power line vinit3 in the longitudinal signal lines, referring to FIG10 , the following settings may be performed:
[0231] Each pixel circuit unit corresponds to two first reset power lines vinit1 (including vinit1-1 and vinit1-2), three second reset power lines vinit2 (including vinit2-1, vinit2-2 and vinit2-3) and one third reset power line vinit3, that is, each pixel circuit unit needs to be connected to two first reset power lines vinit1, three second reset power lines vinit2 and one third reset power line vinit3.
[0232] For each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projections of the two first reset power lines vinit1 on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projections of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1 and the orthographic projections of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate substrate 1, and the two first reset power lines vinit1 are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the first reset power line vinit1-1 and the first reset power line vinit1-2 respectively pass through the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213, and are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213 through vias.
[0233] Furthermore, the two first reset power lines vinit1 are connected via a second connection line L2, which is connected to the second pixel circuit 212. The extension direction of the second connection line L2 intersects that of the first reset power line vinit1. For example, the extension direction of the second connection line L2 can be perpendicular to the extension direction of the first reset power line vinit1, or the angle formed between the extension direction of the second connection line L2 and the extension direction of the first reset power line vinit1 is not 90 degrees. These configurations can be made based on requirements and the arrangement of the first signal lines 3, and are not limited in this embodiment of the present application. The second connection line L2 has its ends connected to the first reset power lines vinit1 located on both sides of the second pixel circuit 212, passing through the second pixel circuit 212 and achieving connection with the second pixel circuit 212. The orthographic projections of the two first reset power lines vinit1 and the second connection line L2 on the substrate 1 form an I-shape.
[0234] In this way, the two first reset power lines vinit1 are connected through the second connecting line L2, and the two first reset power lines vinit1 are connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, so that the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 can receive the same first reset power signal, thereby improving the stability of the first reset power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0235] Optionally, the second connection line L2 may be a metal connection line located in a metal layer in the pixel circuit 21 .
[0236] The orthographic projections of the three second reset power lines vinit2 on the substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projections of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate 1, the orthographic projections of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1, and the orthographic projections of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate 1, and the three second reset power lines vinit2 are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, that is: the three second reset power lines vinit2 respectively pass through the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, and are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 through vias.
[0237] Optionally, as shown in FIG10 , the three second reset power lines vinit2 can also be connected via a fourth connection line L4, wherein the extension direction of the fourth connection line L4 intersects the extension direction of the second reset power line vinit2. For example, the extension direction of the fourth connection line L4 can be perpendicular to the extension direction of the second reset power line vinit2, or the angle formed between the extension direction of the fourth connection line L4 and the extension direction of the second reset power line vinit2 is not 90 degrees, etc., and can be configured according to requirements and the arrangement of each first signal line 3, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. In this way, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 can receive the same second reset power signal, thereby improving the stability of the second reset power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0238] Optionally, the fourth connection line L4 may be a metal connection line located in a metal layer in the pixel circuit 21 .
[0239] The orthographic projection of the third reset power line vinit3 on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the base substrate 1, and the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212, that is, the third reset power line vinit3 passes through the second pixel circuit 212 and is connected to the second pixel circuit 212 through a via.
[0240] Furthermore, the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213 via a third connection line L3. The extension direction of the third connection line L3 intersects the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3. For example, the extension direction of the third connection line L3 can be perpendicular to the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3, or the angle formed between the extension direction of the third connection line L3 and the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3 is not 90 degrees. This configuration can be tailored to the needs and the arrangement of the first signal lines 3, and is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. The third connection line L3 extends in two directions perpendicular to and opposite to the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3, such that the orthographic projections of the third connection line L3 and the third reset power line vinit3 on the substrate 1 form a cross.
[0241] While the third connection line L3 is connected to the third reset power line vinit3, its two ends are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213. In this way, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 can receive the same third reset power signal, thereby improving the stability of the third reset power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0242] Optionally, the third connection line L3 may be a metal connection line located in a metal layer in the pixel circuit 21 .
[0243] The arrangement of the first reset power line vinit1, the second reset power line vinit2 and the third reset power line vinit3 saves the space occupied by the pixel circuit group 2 while improving the stability of the first reset power signal, the second reset power signal and the third reset power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0244] For the driving power lines VDD in the vertical signal, referring to FIG. 10 , the following configuration may be performed: each pixel circuit unit corresponds to two driving power lines VDD.
[0245] Correspondingly, referring to FIG. 11 , the structural arrangement of the three pixel circuits 21 in the pixel circuit unit may be such that, in the arrangement direction of the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, the first pixel circuit 211 is oriented opposite to the second pixel circuit 212. That is, at least a portion of the pattern of the first pixel circuit 211 is symmetrical to at least a portion of the pattern of the second pixel circuit 212.
[0246] Referring to Figures 10 and 12, in this case, for each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projection of a driving power line VDD on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate substrate 1, and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, that is, the driving power line VDD runs through the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212 through vias.
[0247] Since the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212 are arranged in opposite directions, the driving power line VDD can be set between the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, so as to realize a solution in which one driving power line VDD drives two pixel circuits 21, thereby reducing the number of driving power lines VDD and improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0248] It can be understood that the connection point of the first pixel circuit 211 connected to the driving power line VDD needs to be set at a position close to the second pixel circuit 212. Similarly, the connection point of the second pixel circuit 212 connected to the driving power line VDD needs to be set at a position close to the first pixel circuit 211. In this way, the connection point on the first pixel circuit 211 and the connection point on the second pixel circuit 212 can be connected to the same driving power line VDD.
[0249] The orthographic projection of the other driving power line VDD on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the base substrate 1, and is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the other driving power line VDD passes through the third pixel circuit 213 and is connected to the third pixel circuit 213 through a via. Optionally, the orientation of the third pixel circuit 213 can be the same as the orientation of the first pixel circuit 211, or the orientation of the third pixel circuit 213 can be the same as the orientation of the second pixel circuit 212, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
[0250] Optionally, the second pixel circuit 212 and the third pixel circuit 213 can be arranged in opposite directions, and the orthographic projection of a driving power line VDD on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate substrate 1, and is connected to the second pixel circuit 212 and the third pixel circuit 213; the orthographic projection of another driving power line VDD on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1, and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211.
[0251] Optionally, the two driving power lines VDD may be further connected via a fifth connection line L5, wherein the extension direction of the fifth connection line L5 intersects with, for example, is perpendicular to, the extension direction of the driving power line VDD. In this way, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 can receive the same driving power signal, thereby improving the stability of the pixel circuit unit receiving the driving power signal.

[0253] It should be noted that FIG13 is only for illustrating the stacking relationship of each film layer.
[0254] In the embodiment of the present application, the second transistor T2 is an oxide thin film transistor, and thus the second transistor T2 may be composed of a second gate layer c, an oxide layer d, and a third gate layer e. The material of the oxide layer d may be IGZO.

[0256] In addition, the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are all LTPS thin film transistors, and thus the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 can be composed of an active layer a, a first gate layer b and a first source and drain layer h.

[0259] In an embodiment of the present application, a bottom shielding metal layer (BSM) may be located between the base substrate 1 and the active layer a, and the orthographic projection of the active pattern of the third transistor T3 on the base substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the pattern in the bottom shielding metal layer on the base substrate 1, thereby insulating the base substrate 1 from the driving transistor (the third transistor T3) and preventing the base substrate 1 from being energized and thereby affecting the characteristics of the driving transistor itself.
[0260] The buffer layer buffer is located on a side of the bottom shielding metal layer away from the substrate 1 and is used to insulate the bottom shielding metal layer from the active layer a.
[0261] In an embodiment of the present application, the transparent signal lines in the horizontal signal lines (including the first reset signal line Preset, the second reset signal line Preset_H, the first gate signal line Gate_N, the second gate signal line Gate_P, and the light-emitting control signal line EM) of the multiple types of first signal lines 3 can be located in the first transparent routing layer k, the metal signal lines in the horizontal signal lines in the multiple types of first signal lines 3 can be located in the first source and drain layer h, the transparent signal lines in the vertical signal lines (including the first reset power line vinit1, the second reset power line vinit2, the third reset power line vinit3, the drive power line VDD, and the data signal line Data) of the multiple types of first signal lines 3 can be located in the second transparent routing layer n, and the metal signal lines in the vertical signal lines in the multiple types of first signal lines 3 can be located in the second source and drain layer q.
[0262] The second connection line L2 can be located on the first source and drain electrode layer h, and the third connection line L3 can be located on the third gate layer e. It is understood that in this example, the fourth connection line L4 and the fifth connection line L5 are not provided. If the fourth connection line L4 and the fifth connection line L5 are provided, they can be provided on any layer with space for placement among the first gate layer b, the second gate layer c, the third gate layer, and the first source and drain electrode layer h, and this embodiment of the application is not limited to this.
[0263] In order to clearly identify each film layer, the following describes each film layer when the pixel circuit 21 includes eight transistors in the form of each single layer and a step-by-step stacking method:
[0264] 1. The following describes a solution in which the data signal lines Data (including Data-1 connected to the first pixel circuit 211, Data-2 connected to the second pixel circuit 212, and Data-3 connected to the third pixel circuit 213) all include metal signal lines and transparent signal lines connected in parallel, and the first signal lines 3 of other types are transparent signal lines:

[0266] It should be noted that the pixel circuit group 2 composed of the patterns of the various film layers introduced below includes a pixel circuit unit, which includes a first pixel circuit 211, a second pixel circuit 212 and a third pixel circuit 213 arranged from left to right. In the arrangement direction of the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212 and the third pixel circuit 213, the orientation of the first pixel circuit 211 is relative to the orientation of the second pixel circuit 212, and the orientation of the third pixel circuit 213 is the same as the orientation of the first pixel circuit 211, wherein the relative arrangement means that at least part of the pattern of the first pixel circuit 211 is symmetrically arranged with at least part of the pattern of the second pixel circuit 212.
[0267] Figure 14 is a partial schematic diagram of an active layer a in a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 14 , the active layer a can have a curved or bent shape and includes active patterns (channel regions) and doping patterns (source and drain doping regions) for the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, the seventh transistor T7, and the eighth transistor T8. The active patterns and doping patterns for each of the transistors in the same pixel circuit 21 are integrated.

[0271] It should be noted that the active layer a may include an integrally formed low-temperature polysilicon layer, and the source and drain regions may be made conductive by doping, etc., to achieve electrical connection between the various structures. In other words, the semiconductor layer of each transistor in each pixel circuit is an integral pattern formed of p-silicon, and each transistor in the same pixel circuit includes a doped region pattern (i.e., a source and drain region) and an active pattern, with the active patterns of different transistors separated.
[0272] The active layer a can be made of amorphous silicon, polycrystalline silicon, oxide semiconductor materials, etc. It should be noted that the above-mentioned source region and drain region can be regions doped with n-type impurities or p-type impurities.
[0273] The display panel may further include a first gate insulating layer located on a side of the active layer a away from the base substrate 1 , for insulating the active layer a from a first gate layer b to be formed subsequently.
[0274] Figure 15 is a partial schematic diagram of a first gate layer b in a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application, and Figure 16 is a partial schematic diagram of the superposition of an active layer a and a first gate layer b in a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application. The first gate layer b is located on a side of the first gate insulating layer away from the base substrate 1. Referring to Figures 15 and 16, the first gate layer b may include a second capacitor plate Cst2, a first gate pattern b1 of the first transistor T1, a third gate pattern b3 of the third transistor T3, a fourth gate pattern b4 of the fourth transistor T4, a fifth gate pattern b5 of the fifth transistor T5, a sixth gate pattern b6 of the sixth transistor T6, a seventh gate pattern b7 of the seventh thin-film transistor T7, and an eighth gate pattern b8 of the eighth transistor T8.

The third gate pattern b3-1 of the third transistor T3-1 and the second capacitor plate Cst2-1 can be considered to be an integrated structure.
[0276] The second pixel circuit 212 includes a second capacitor plate Cst2-2, a first gate pattern b1-2 of the first transistor T1-2, a third gate pattern b3-2 of the third transistor T3-2, a fourth gate pattern b4-2 of the fourth transistor T4-2, a fifth gate pattern b5-2 of the fifth transistor T5-2, a sixth gate pattern b6-2 of the sixth transistor T6-2, a seventh gate pattern b7-2 of the seventh thin-film transistor T7-2, and an eighth gate pattern b8-2 of the eighth transistor T8-2.

The third gate pattern b3-3 of the third transistor T3-3 and the second capacitor plate Cst2-3 can be considered to be an integrated structure.
[0278] It should be noted that the dotted rectangular boxes in Figure 16 show the overlapping parts of the first gate layer b and the active layer a. As the channel region of each transistor, the active layer a on both sides of each channel region is conductively connected through processes such as ion doping to serve as the first and second electrodes of each transistor. The source and drain of the transistor can be symmetrical in structure, so the source and drain can be indistinguishable in physical structure. In the embodiment of the present application, in order to distinguish the transistors, except for the gate as the control electrode, one of the electrodes is directly described as the first electrode and the other electrode is the second electrode, so the first and second electrodes of all or part of the transistors in the embodiment of the present application can be interchangeable as needed.

In an embodiment of the present application, the orthographic projection of the metal signal line on the base substrate 1 can be set to at least partially overlap with the orthographic projection of the adjacent pixel circuit group 2 on the base substrate 1. For example, the orthographic projection of Data-4' in Figure 40 on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group A on the base substrate 1. In this way, the blocking effect of the metal signal line on the transparent area in the first display area 11 can be reduced, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.

Alternatively, the second display area 12 can be the remaining display area of the base substrate 1 excluding the first display area 11.
[0502] The first display area 11 may include multiple pixel circuit areas 111 and light-transmitting areas 112 . Each pixel circuit area 111 may be used to set a pixel circuit group 2 . The light-transmitting area 112 is an area where no pixel circuit group 2 is set, and its transmittance is higher than that of the pixel circuit area 111 .
[0503] Multiple pixel circuit groups 2 are located in multiple pixel circuit areas 111 of the first display area 11. As shown in Figure 2, each pixel circuit group 2 includes a first number of pixel circuits 21 arranged along a first direction, and the minimum distance between adjacent pixel circuit groups 2 is greater than the minimum distance between adjacent pixel circuits 21 in the pixel circuit group 2. In this way, compared with the arrangement of multiple pixel circuits uniformly arranged in the second display area 12, the multiple pixel circuits 21 are gathered together in the first display area 11 to form a pixel circuit group 2, which can reduce the area occupied by these multiple pixel circuits 21, thereby increasing the area of the light-transmitting area 112 in the first display area 11, and thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0504] Optionally, the first direction may be a row direction of the pixel circuit arrangement, or other directions, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
[0505] Multiple first signal lines 3 are connected to the pixel circuits 21 located in the first display area 11 for transmitting signals thereto. The first signal lines 3 extend along a second direction, where the second direction intersects the first direction. The angle formed between the second direction and the first direction can be any angle, for example, an acute angle or a right angle, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
[0506] At least one pixel circuit group 2 among the plurality of pixel circuit groups 2 in the first display area 11 is connected to a second number of first signal lines 3. The second number of first signal lines 3 connected to the same pixel circuit group 2 can be electrically connected to one another via connecting wires, i.e., the connecting wires connect the second number of first signal lines 3 in series. The second number is no greater than the first number, i.e., the number of first signal lines connected to a pixel circuit group 2 is no greater than the number of pixel circuits 21 included in the pixel circuit group 2.
[0507] For each pixel circuit group 2 in at least one pixel circuit group 2, each first signal line 3 in the second number of first signal lines 3 is respectively connected to at least one pixel circuit 21 in the pixel circuit group 2, and the connecting line is connected to the pixel circuit 21 in the pixel circuit group that is connected to the first signal line 3.
[0508] At least part of the line segments of the first signal line 3 are located in the light-transmitting area 112, and the connecting line is located in the pixel circuit area 111. Therefore, by adopting the present application, the number of first signal lines 3 that need to be connected to each pixel circuit group 2 is reduced, and the blocking area of the first signal line 3 on the light-transmitting area 112 is reduced, thereby improving the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112, and further improving the performance of the display panel.
[0509] Multiple light-emitting units are located in the first display area 11, and multiple pixel circuit groups 2 are configured to drive the multiple light-emitting units to emit light. The orthographic projections of at least some of the multiple light-emitting units on the base substrate 1 overlap with the orthographic projections of at least some line segments of the first signal lines 3 on the base substrate 1. In this way, the first signal lines 3, which partially block the light-transmitting area 112, are positioned below the light-emitting units that are also located in and partially block the light-transmitting area 112. This reduces the area of the light-transmitting area 112 blocked by the first signal lines 3, thereby increasing the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112 and thereby improving the performance of the display panel.
[0510] Optionally, referring to Figure 5, in an embodiment of the present application, the multiple pixel circuit groups 2 include multiple first pixel circuit groups 2A and multiple second pixel circuit groups 2B, the multiple first pixel circuit groups 2A are arranged in multiple rows, and the multiple second pixel circuit groups 2B are arranged in multiple rows, and a row of second pixel circuit groups 2B is arranged between any two adjacent rows of first pixel circuit groups 2A, that is: in two adjacent rows of pixel circuit groups 2 in the first display area 11, one row of pixel circuit groups 2 is the first pixel circuit group 2A, and the other row of pixel circuit groups 2 is the second pixel circuit group 2B, and the multiple rows of first pixel circuit groups 2A and the multiple rows of second pixel circuit groups 2B are arranged alternately.
[0511] Moreover, in any row of first pixel circuit groups 2A and a row of second pixel circuit groups 2B adjacent to the first pixel circuit group 2A, the position of the spacing region between any two adjacent first pixel circuit groups 2A corresponds to the position of one second pixel circuit group 2B.
[0512] Each pixel circuit group 2 in the first pixel circuit group 2A and the second pixel circuit group 2B has the following structure:
[0513] Each pixel circuit group 2 includes at least one pixel circuit unit, and the pixel circuit unit includes a first pixel circuit 211, a second pixel circuit 212, and a third pixel circuit 213. That is, each pixel circuit group 2 may include one or more pixel circuit units. For example, the pixel circuit group 2 shown in FIG5 includes one pixel circuit unit, and the pixel circuit unit includes three pixel circuits (a first pixel circuit 211, a second pixel circuit 212, and a third pixel circuit 213). Alternatively, the pixel circuit group may include six pixel circuits, nine pixel circuits, and so on, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0514] In each pixel circuit unit, the second pixel circuit 212 is located between the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213 , and the first pixel circuit 211 , the second pixel circuit 212 and the third pixel circuit 213 are arranged along the first direction.
[0515] FIG6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a pixel circuit group 2 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG6 , the pixel circuit group 2 includes a pixel circuit unit, namely, a first pixel circuit 211 , a second pixel circuit 212 and a third pixel circuit 213 .
[0516] Each light emitting unit may include a first light emitting element, two second light emitting elements and a third light emitting element, and at least one light emitting unit corresponds to a pixel circuit unit.
[0517] The first light-emitting element is connected to the first pixel circuit 211, that is, the anode of the first light-emitting element is connected to the first pixel circuit 211, and the first pixel circuit 211 can drive the first light-emitting element to emit light. In the embodiment of the present application, the orthographic projection of the anode 51 of the first light-emitting element on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the first pixel circuit 211 is located on the base substrate 1.
[0518] The two second light-emitting elements are both connected to the second pixel circuit 212 , that is, the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements are connected to the second pixel circuit 212 .
[0519] Furthermore, the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1 are located on opposite sides of the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1. Referring to FIG6 , the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1 are located on two sides of the second pixel circuit 212, and the orthographic projections of the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements on the substrate 1, the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate 1, and the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate 1 surround the four sides of the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1. Optionally, the anodes 52 of the two second light-emitting elements can be symmetrically arranged, and their axes of symmetry can be parallel to the first direction.
[0520] The third light-emitting element is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, and the third pixel circuit 213 drives the third light-emitting element to emit light. In the embodiment of the present application, the orthographic projection of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the pixel circuit group 2 where the third pixel circuit 213 is located on the substrate 1.
[0521] The orthographic projection of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate 1. Since the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element is light-shielding, it is set in the area where the third pixel circuit 213, which is also light-shielding, is located. This can reduce the blocking effect of the anode 53 of the third light-emitting element on the transparent area of the first display area 11, thereby improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.

Since the gate of the fifth transistor T5 is connected to the light emission control signal line EM, the fifth transistor T5 can also be called a light emission control transistor.
[0529] The gate of the sixth transistor T6 is connected to the light-emission control signal line EM, the first electrode of the sixth transistor T6 is connected to the first node N1, and the second electrode of the sixth transistor T6 is connected to the anode of the light-emitting element.

[0531] The gate of the eighth transistor T8 is connected to the second reset signal line Preset_H, the first electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is connected to the third reset power line vinit3, and the second electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is connected to the third node N3. The eighth transistor T8 can be a reset transistor in the pixel circuit.
[0532] Two ends of the storage capacitor Cst are connected to the driving power line VDD and the second node N2 respectively.
[0533] Optionally, referring to FIG. 10 , the first signal line 3 may include a first reset power line vinit1 , and correspondingly, the connection line may include a second connection line L2 , wherein the second connection line L2 is located in the pixel circuit area 111 .
[0534] Each pixel circuit unit in the pixel circuit group 2 may be respectively connected to two first reset power lines vinit1 (including vinit1 - 1 and vinit1 - 2 ), and the two first reset power lines vinit1 may be electrically connected via a second connection line L2 .
[0535] For each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projections of the two first reset power lines vinit1 on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projections of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1 and the orthographic projections of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate substrate 1, and the two first reset power lines vinit1 are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the first reset power line vinit1-1 and the first reset power line vinit1-2 respectively pass through the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213, and are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213 through vias.
[0536] Furthermore, the second connection line L2 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212. The two ends of the second connection line L2 are connected to the first reset power line vinit1 located on both sides of the second pixel circuit 212. The second connection line L2 passes through the second pixel circuit 212 and connects to the second pixel circuit 212. The orthographic projections of the first reset power line vinit1 and the second connection line L2 on the base substrate 1 form an I-shape.
[0537] Optionally, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 may be connected to the same second connection line L2, or each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 may be connected to different second connection lines L2.
[0538] Specifically, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 can be connected to the same second connection line L2, that is, the connection line corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 includes only one second connection line L2, the multiple first reset power lines vinit1 connected to the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2 are all connected to the second connection line L2, and the second connection line L2 is connected to the second pixel circuits 212 in the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2.
[0539] Alternatively, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 can be respectively connected to different second connection lines L2, that is, the connection lines corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 can include multiple second connection lines L2, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 is respectively connected to two first reset power lines vinit1 and one second connection line L2. For each pixel circuit unit, the two first reset power lines vinit1 are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213, and the two first reset power lines vinit1 are both connected to the second connection line L2, and the second connection line L2 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212.
[0540] In this way, compared with the solution of setting three first reset power lines vinit1 in the related art, the embodiment of the present application reduces one first reset power line vinit1, reducing its blocking area of the light-transmitting area 112, thereby improving the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112, and further improving the display performance of the display panel.
[0541] Optionally, referring to FIG. 10 , the first signal line 3 may include a second reset power line vinit2 , and correspondingly, the connection line may include a fourth connection line L4 , wherein the fourth connection line L4 is located in the pixel circuit region 111 .
[0542] Each pixel circuit unit in the pixel circuit group 2 is respectively connected to three second reset power lines vinit2 (including vinit2 - 1 , vinit2 - 2 and vinit2 - 3 ). The three second reset power lines vinit2 can be electrically connected via a fourth connection line L4 .
[0543] For each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projections of the three second reset power lines vinit2 on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlap with the orthographic projections of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1, the orthographic projections of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate substrate 1, and the orthographic projections of the third pixel circuit 213 on the substrate substrate 1, and the three second reset power lines vinit2 are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, that is: the three second reset power lines vinit2 respectively pass through the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, and are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 through vias.
[0544] The fourth connection line L4 is used to connect the three second reset power lines vinit2 together, thereby improving the stability of signal transmission of the second reset power lines vinit2. In addition, the fourth connection line L4 does not block the light-transmitting area 112.
[0545] Optionally, the pixel circuit group 2 may correspond to one fourth connection line L4, or the pixel circuit group 2 may correspond to multiple fourth connection lines L4 (ie, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 corresponds to one fourth connection line L4).
[0546] Specifically, when the pixel circuit group 2 can correspond to a fourth connection line L4, that is, the connection line corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 includes only one fourth connection line L4, the multiple second reset power lines vinit2 connected to the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2 are all connected to the fourth connection line L4.
[0547] Alternatively, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 corresponds to a fourth connection line L4 respectively, that is, the connection lines corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 can include multiple fourth connection lines L4, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 is connected to three second reset power lines vinit2 respectively. For each pixel circuit unit, the three second reset power lines vinit2 are all connected to a fourth connection line L4, and the second reset power lines vinit2 connected to different pixel circuit units are connected to different fourth connection lines L4.
[0548] Optionally, referring to FIG. 10 , the first signal line 3 may include a third reset power line vinit3 , and correspondingly, the connection line may include a third connection line L3 , wherein the third connection line L3 is located in the pixel circuit area 111 .
[0549] Each pixel circuit unit in the pixel circuit group 2 is connected to a third reset power line vinit3 , and the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the third connection line L3 .
[0550] For each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projection of the third reset power line vinit3 on the substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate 1, and the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212, that is, the third reset power line vinit3 passes through the second pixel circuit 212 and is connected to the second pixel circuit 212 through a via.
[0551] Furthermore, the third connection line L3 is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213. The extension direction of the third connection line L3 intersects the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3. The third connection line L3 extends in two directions perpendicular to and opposite to the extension direction of the third reset power line vinit3, such that the orthographic projections of the third connection line L3 and the third reset power line vinit3 on the base substrate 1 form a cross.
[0552] While the third connection line L3 is connected to the third reset power line vinit3, its two ends are respectively connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213. In this way, the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213 can receive the same third reset power signal, thereby improving the stability of the third reset power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0553] Optionally, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 may be connected to the same third connection line L3, or each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 may be connected to different third connection lines L3.
[0554] Specifically, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 can be connected to the same third connection line L3, that is, the connection line corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 includes only one third connection line L3, the multiple third reset power lines vinit3 connected to the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2 are all connected to the third connection line L3, and the third connection line L3 is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213 in the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2.
[0555] Alternatively, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 can be respectively connected to a different third connection line L3, that is, the connection line corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 can include multiple third connection lines L3, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 is respectively connected to a third reset power line vinit3 and a third connection line L3. For each pixel circuit unit, the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the second pixel circuit 212, and the third reset power line vinit3 is connected to the third connection line L3, and the third connection line L3 is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the third pixel circuit 213.
[0556] In this way, compared with the solution of setting three first reset power lines vinit3 in the related art, the embodiment of the present application reduces one first reset power line vinit3, reducing its blocking area of the light-transmitting area 112, thereby improving the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112, and further improving the display performance of the display panel.
[0557] Optionally, referring to FIG. 10 , the first signal line 3 may include a driving power line VDD, and the corresponding connection line may include a fifth connection line L5 , wherein the fifth connection line L5 is located in the pixel circuit region 111 .
[0558] Each pixel circuit unit in the pixel circuit group 2 is respectively connected to two driving power lines VDD, and the two driving power lines VDD may be electrically connected via a fifth connection line L5.
[0559] Correspondingly, referring to FIG. 11 , the structural arrangement of the three pixel circuits 21 in the pixel circuit unit may be such that, in the arrangement direction of the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212, and the third pixel circuit 213, the first pixel circuit 211 is oriented opposite to the second pixel circuit 212. That is, at least a portion of the pattern of the first pixel circuit 211 is symmetrical to at least a portion of the pattern of the second pixel circuit 212.
[0560] Referring to Figures 10 and 12, in this case, for each pixel circuit unit, the orthographic projection of a driving power line VDD on the substrate substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first pixel circuit 211 on the substrate substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the second pixel circuit 212 on the substrate substrate 1, and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, that is, the driving power line VDD runs through the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, and is connected to the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212 through vias.
[0561] Since the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212 are arranged in opposite directions, the driving power line VDD can be set between the first pixel circuit 211 and the second pixel circuit 212, so as to realize a solution in which one driving power line VDD drives two pixel circuits 21, thereby reducing the number of driving power lines VDD and improving the light transmittance of the first display area 11.
[0562] It can be understood that the connection point of the first pixel circuit 211 connected to the driving power line VDD needs to be set at a position close to the second pixel circuit 212. Similarly, the connection point of the second pixel circuit 212 connected to the driving power line VDD needs to be set at a position close to the first pixel circuit 211. In this way, the connection point on the first pixel circuit 211 and the connection point on the second pixel circuit 212 can be connected to the same driving power line VDD.
[0563] The orthographic projection of the other driving power line VDD on the base substrate 1 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the third pixel circuit 213 on the base substrate 1, and is connected to the third pixel circuit 213, that is, the other driving power line VDD passes through the third pixel circuit 213 and is connected to the third pixel circuit 213 through a via. Optionally, the orientation of the third pixel circuit 213 can be the same as the orientation of the first pixel circuit 211, or the orientation of the third pixel circuit 213 can be the same as the orientation of the second pixel circuit 212, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
[0564] Using the fifth connection line L5 to connect the two driving power lines VDD together can enable the first pixel circuit 211, the second pixel circuit 212 and the third pixel circuit 213 to receive the same driving power signal, thereby improving the stability of the pixel circuit unit receiving the driving power signal.
[0565] Optionally, the pixel circuit group 2 may correspond to one fifth connection line L5, or the pixel circuit group 2 may correspond to multiple fifth connection lines L5 (ie, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 corresponds to one fifth connection line L5).
[0566] Specifically, when the pixel circuit group 2 can correspond to a fifth connection line L5, that is, the connection line corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 only includes one fifth connection line L5, the multiple driving power lines VDD connected to the multiple pixel circuit units in the pixel circuit group 2 are all connected to the fifth connection line L5.
[0567] Alternatively, when each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 corresponds to a fifth connection line L5 respectively, that is, the connection lines corresponding to each pixel circuit group 2 can include multiple fifth connection lines L5, each pixel circuit unit included in the pixel circuit group 2 is connected to two driving power lines VDD respectively, and for each pixel circuit unit, the two driving power lines VDD are connected to a fifth connection line L5, and the driving power lines VDD connected to different pixel circuit units are connected to different fifth connection lines L5.
[0568] The arrangement of the above-mentioned first reset power line vinit1, second reset power line vinit2, third reset power line vinit3 and driving power line VDD not only improves the light transmittance of the light-transmitting area 112, but also improves the stability of the first reset power signal, second reset power signal, third reset power signal and driving power signal received by the pixel circuit unit.
[0569] Optionally, the type of the first signal line 3 may include at least one of a first reset power line vinit1 , a second reset power line vinit2 , a third reset power line vinit3 and a driving power line VDD.

Referring to Figure 72, the display device may include any of the display panels 01 provided in the above embodiments and an optical sensor 02, wherein the orthographic projection of the optical sensor 02 on the display panel 01 at least partially overlaps with the first display area 11 of the display panel 01.
[0572] In a display device, the optical sensor 02 is typically mounted on the non-display side of the display panel 01, with the light-sensitive side of the optical sensor 02 facing the display panel 01.

These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or part from another region, layer or part. Therefore, the first element, component, region, layer or part discussed above may be referred to as a second element, component, region, layer or part without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.
[0576] Spatially relative terms such as “under,” “over,” “left,” “right,” and the like may be used herein to describe the relationship of one element or feature to another element or feature as illustrated in the figures for ease of description.
