[0054] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0055] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly defined.

[0056] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the circumstances.

[0057] In the present application, "electrical connection" includes the situation where the components are connected together through an element having some electrical function. There is no particular limitation on the "element having some electrical function" as long as it can transmit electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "element having some electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other elements with multiple functions.

[0058] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being “above” or “below” a second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, a first feature being “above”, “above”, and “above” a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being “below”, “below”, and “below” a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0059] In this application, a transistor refers to an element including at least three terminals: a gate, a drain, and a source. A transistor has a channel region between a drain (drain electrode terminal, a drain region, or a drain electrode) and a source (source electrode terminal, a source region, or a source electrode), and current can flow through the drain, the channel region, and the source. In this application, a channel region refers to a region where current mainly flows.

[0060] In the present application, the first electrode may be a drain electrode and the second electrode may be a source electrode, or the first electrode may be a source electrode and the second electrode may be a drain electrode. In the case of using transistors with opposite polarities or when the current direction changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source electrode" and the "drain electrode" are sometimes interchanged. Therefore, in the present application, the "source electrode" and the "drain electrode" may be interchanged. In addition, the gate electrode may also be referred to as a control electrode.

[0061] In the present application, "parallel" means a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than -10° and less than 10°, and therefore, also includes a state where the angle is greater than -5° and less than 5°. In addition, "perpendicular" means a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than 80° and less than 100°, and therefore, also includes a state where the angle is greater than 85° and less than 95°.

[0062] In the present application, circles, ellipses, triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons are not in a strict sense, but may be approximate circles, approximate ellipses, approximate triangles, approximate rectangles, approximate trapezoids, approximate pentagons or approximate hexagons, etc. There may be some small deformations caused by tolerances, such as chamfers, arc edges and deformations.

[0063] The "light transmittance" in this application refers to the ability of light to pass through a medium, which is the percentage of the luminous flux passing through a transparent or translucent body to its incident luminous flux.

[0064] In this application, "about" or "substantially" means that the limit is not strictly defined and the process and measurement errors are allowed. In this application, "same" means that the numerical value differs within 10%.

[0065] In the present application, A extends along direction B means that A may include a main part and a secondary part connected to the main part, the main part is a line, line segment or strip-shaped body, the main part extends along direction B, and the length of the main part extending along direction B is greater than the length of the secondary part extending along other directions. In the present application, "A extends along direction B" means "the main part of A extends along direction B.

[0066] With the continuous development of display technology, cameras are usually installed on display devices to meet the needs of shooting or face recognition. In order to maximize the screen-to-body ratio, technologies such as bangs screen, water drop screen, and in-screen hole have appeared one after another. These technologies are to reduce the area occupied by the camera by digging holes in part of the display area and placing a camera below the hole area, thereby increasing the screen-to-body ratio. However, the above technology requires digging out part of the display area, which will cause part of the display screen to be unable to be displayed, and the screen-to-body ratio cannot be further increased. In order to avoid punching holes in the display area and make a true full screen possible while ensuring the practicality of the display substrate, the pixel circuit external method is usually used in the camera area under the screen. The pixel circuit external method refers to setting the pixel circuit connected to the light-emitting element in the camera area under the screen in the normal display area, and arranging the light-emitting element and the pixel circuit separately to improve the light transmittance of the camera area under the screen. Since there is no pixel circuit in the camera area under the screen, there is no other light-shielding layer in this area except the anode of the light-emitting element, so a higher light transmittance can be achieved. However, the multiple light-emitting elements in the under-screen camera area need to be connected to the multiple pixel circuits in the normal display area through multiple conductive connecting lines. The environments of the multiple conductive connecting lines vary depending on the setting positions, which is not conducive to the uniformity of the arrangement of the conductive connecting lines. There are also problems such as poor etching uniformity and cumbersome signal compensation.

[0067] The present embodiment provides a display substrate, comprising: a substrate, a plurality of light-emitting elements arranged on the substrate, a plurality of pixel circuits, and a plurality of first auxiliary wirings. The substrate comprises a first display area and a second display area located at least on one side of the first display area, and the second display area comprises: a first sub-area located at least on one side of the first display area, and a second sub-area located at least on one side of the first sub-area. The plurality of light-emitting elements comprises a plurality of first light-emitting elements located in the first display area and a plurality of second light-emitting elements located in the second display area. The plurality of pixel circuits comprises a plurality of first pixel circuits and a plurality of second pixel circuits located in the second display area, the plurality of first pixel circuits are located in the first sub-area, at least one first pixel circuit among the plurality of first pixel circuits is connected to at least one first light-emitting element among the plurality of first light-emitting elements through at least one conductive connecting line; at least one second pixel circuit among the plurality of second pixel circuits is connected to at least one second light-emitting element among the plurality of second light-emitting elements. The at least one conductive connecting line extends from the first sub-area to the first display area. The plurality of first auxiliary wirings are located in the second sub-area of ​​the second display area, at least one first auxiliary wiring among the plurality of first auxiliary wirings is arranged in the same layer as the at least one conductive connecting line, and the plurality of first auxiliary wirings are configured to receive a constant voltage signal.

[0068] In some examples, the first sub-region of the second display region may also be referred to as a transition region, and a plurality of first pixel circuits may be disposed in the first sub-region and electrically connected to a plurality of first light-emitting elements in the first display region through a plurality of conductive connecting lines. A plurality of conductive connecting lines connected to the plurality of first pixel circuits may extend from the first sub-region to the first display region and be connected to a plurality of first light-emitting elements in the first display region. In other words, a plurality of conductive connecting lines may be disposed in the first sub-region and the first display region.

[0069] The display substrate provided in this embodiment arranges a plurality of first auxiliary wirings provided in the same layer as the conductive connection lines in the second sub-area of ​​the second display area, which can facilitate the wiring etching uniformity of the conductive layer where the conductive connection lines are located and facilitate stabilizing the circuit under the conductive layer where the conductive connection lines are located.

[0070] In some exemplary embodiments, the extension direction of at least one of the plurality of first auxiliary routings is the same as the extension direction of at least one conductive connection line. In some examples, the display substrate may include a plurality of conductive connection lines having the same extension direction, and the extension direction of the plurality of first auxiliary routings may be the same as the extension direction of the plurality of conductive connection lines. For example, the plurality of first auxiliary routings and the plurality of conductive connection lines may both extend in the first direction. In other examples, the display substrate may include a plurality of conductive connection lines having the same extension direction, and the extension direction of the plurality of first auxiliary routings may be different from the extension direction of the plurality of conductive connection lines. For example, the plurality of conductive connection lines may extend in the second direction, and the plurality of first auxiliary routings may extend in the first direction, the first direction intersecting the second direction, for example, the first direction being perpendicular to the second direction. In other examples, the display substrate may include two groups of conductive connection lines having intersecting extension directions, and the extension direction of the plurality of first auxiliary routings may be the same as the extension direction of one of the groups of conductive connection lines.

[0071] In some exemplary embodiments, the display substrate may further include: a plurality of second auxiliary routing lines located in the second sub-area, the extension direction of the plurality of second auxiliary routing lines intersects with the extension direction of the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines, and the plurality of second auxiliary routing lines and the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines may be connected to form a mesh structure. For example, the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines may extend along the first direction, and the plurality of second auxiliary routing lines may extend along the second direction. In this example, the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines and the plurality of second auxiliary routing lines are connected to form a mesh structure, which may be beneficial to the uniformity of routing etching of the conductive layer where the conductive connection lines are located.

[0072] In some exemplary embodiments, the first auxiliary routing may include: a first main body extending along a first direction, a plurality of first extensions and a plurality of second extensions extending along a second direction, and a plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes, wherein the second direction intersects the first direction. The plurality of second extensions are connected to the plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes one by one, the plurality of first extensions are connected to the plurality of second extensions on the same side of the first main body, and are arranged at intervals along the first direction; the first auxiliary connection electrode is connected to a second auxiliary routing extending along the second direction. In some examples, at least one insulating layer may be provided between the conductive layer where the first auxiliary routing is located and the conductive layer where the second auxiliary routing is located; the second auxiliary routing includes: a second main body extending along the second direction and at least one second auxiliary connection electrode extending along the first direction; the second auxiliary connection electrode of the second auxiliary routing may be connected to the first auxiliary connection electrode of the first auxiliary routing through an auxiliary transfer hole provided in the insulating layer. By providing the auxiliary transfer hole, this example can improve the situation where the gap between the via holes provided in the insulating layer in the second display area is too large, resulting in inconsistent environment.

[0073] In some exemplary embodiments, the substrate may further include: a frame region located on at least one side of the second display region, and the display substrate may further include: a third auxiliary routing line located in the frame region, the third auxiliary routing line being connected to the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines and configured to transmit a constant voltage signal. In this example, by providing a third auxiliary routing line in the frame region to provide a constant voltage signal to the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines, it is beneficial to stabilize the lower circuit of the film layer where the plurality of first auxiliary routing lines and the plurality of conductive connection lines are located.

For example, the plurality of fourth auxiliary lines may be located between the conductive connection parts of adjacent conductive connection lines, or may be located between the third main bodies of adjacent conductive connection lines, or may be located between the conductive connection parts of adjacent conductive connection lines and between the third main bodies of adjacent conductive connection lines. In this example, by arranging the fourth auxiliary lines in the intervals between the conductive connection lines, the consistency of the surrounding environment of the conductive connection lines can be improved, which is conducive to optimizing the compensation rules for the conductive connection lines and improving the etching uniformity of the conductive connection lines.

[0075] The solution of this embodiment is described below by means of some examples.

[0076] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a display substrate of at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the display substrate may include: a display area AA, and a frame area BB surrounding the periphery of the display area AA. For example, the frame area BB may include: a first frame area B1, a second frame area B2, a third frame area B3, and a fourth frame area B4 located around the display area AA. The first frame area B1 and the second frame area B2 may be located on opposite sides of the display area AA along the second direction D2, and the third frame area B3 and the fourth frame area B4 may be located on opposite sides of the display area AA along the first direction D1. Among them, the first direction D1 intersects with the second direction D2, for example, the first direction D1 may be perpendicular to the second direction D2. In some examples, the first frame area B1 may be the lower frame of the display substrate, the second frame area B2 may be the upper frame of the display substrate, the third frame area B3 may be the left frame of the display substrate, and the fourth frame area B4 may be the right frame of the display substrate.

[0077] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the display area AA may include: a first display area A1 and a second display area A2. The second display area A2 may at least partially surround the first display area A1. For example, the first display area A1 may be located in the top center of the display area AA, and the second display area A2 may surround the first display area A1. However, this embodiment is not limited to this. For example, the first display area A1 may be located in other positions such as the upper left corner or the upper right corner of the display area AA, and the second display area A2 may surround at least one side of the first display area A1.

[0078] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the display area AA may be a rectangle, such as a rounded rectangle. The first display area A1 may be a circle or an ellipse. However, this embodiment is not limited thereto. For example, the first display area A1 may be a rectangle, a semicircle, a pentagon or other shapes.

[0079] In some examples, the first display area A1 may be a light-transmitting display area, which may also be referred to as a Full Display with Camera (FDC) area, configured to display images and transmit light; the second display area A2 may be referred to as a normal display area, configured to display images. For example, the orthographic projection of a sensor (e.g., hardware such as a camera or infrared sensor) on the display substrate may be at least partially located within the first display area A1 of the display substrate. In some examples, such as Figure 1As shown, the first display area A1 may be circular, and the size of the orthographic projection of the sensor on the display substrate may be less than or equal to the size of the first display area A1. However, this embodiment is not limited to this. In other examples, the first display area A1 may be rectangular, and the size of the orthographic projection of the sensor on the display substrate may be less than or equal to the size of the inscribed circle of the first display area A1.

[0080] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pixel density of the first display area A1 may be less than or equal to the pixel density of the second display area A2. For example, the pixel density of the first display area A1 may be equal to the pixel density of the second display area A2. In some examples, the ratio of the resolution of the first display area A1 to the resolution of the second display area A2 may be approximately 0.8 to 1.2. This embodiment is not limited to this.

[0081] In some examples, the display substrate may include at least: a plurality of first light-emitting elements 31 located in the first display area A1, a plurality of second light-emitting elements 32 located in the second display area A2, and a plurality of pixel circuits. The plurality of pixel circuits located in the second display area A2 may include: a plurality of first pixel circuits 41, a plurality of second pixel circuits 42, and a plurality of invalid pixel circuits.

[0082] In some examples, at least one first pixel circuit 41 among the plurality of first pixel circuits 41 may be electrically connected to at least one first light-emitting element 31 among the plurality of first light-emitting elements 31 through a conductive connection line 51. The first pixel circuit 41 may be configured to provide a driving signal to the connected first light-emitting element 31 to drive the corresponding first light-emitting element 31 to emit light. For example, the plurality of first pixel circuits 41 and the plurality of first light-emitting elements 31 may be in a one-to-one driving relationship, or may be in a one-to-many driving relationship. Since the first light-emitting element 31 and the first pixel circuit 41 are located in different areas, there may be no overlapping portion between the orthographic projection of at least one first pixel circuit 41 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of at least one first light-emitting element 31 on the substrate.

[0083] In some examples, at least one second pixel circuit 42 among the plurality of second pixel circuits 42 may be electrically connected to at least one second light emitting element 32 among the plurality of second light emitting elements 32, and the orthographic projection of at least one second pixel circuit 42 on the substrate may at least partially overlap with the orthographic projection of at least one second light emitting element 32 on the substrate. The second pixel circuit 42 may be configured to provide a driving signal to the connected second light emitting element 32 to drive the corresponding second light emitting element 32 to emit light. For example, the plurality of second pixel circuits 42 and the plurality of second light emitting elements 32 may be in a one-to-one driving relationship, or may be in a one-to-many driving relationship.

[0084] Figure 2A schematic diagram of a display area according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an arrangement of pixel circuits in the second display area of ​​at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second display area A2 may include: a first sub-area A21 and a second sub-area A22. The first sub-area A21 may be located on both sides of the first display area A1 along the first direction D1, and the second sub-area A22 may surround the first sub-area A1. The second sub-area A22 may include: a first partition A221 and a second partition A222 located on both sides of the second sub-area A21 along the first direction D1, and a third partition A223 and a fourth partition A224 located on both sides of the first sub-area A21 along the second direction D2. The third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224 are located on both sides of the first display area A1 along the second direction D2.

[0085] In some examples, the multiple pixel circuits of the second display area A2 may include: multiple first pixel circuits 41, multiple invalid pixel circuits 43, and multiple second pixel circuits 42. The multiple first pixel circuits 41 and the multiple invalid pixel circuits 43 may be arranged between the multiple second pixel circuits 42 along the first direction D1. The multiple first pixel circuits 41 may be located in the first sub-area A21. The first sub-area A21 may also be referred to as a transition area. This example can help improve the uniformity of components of multiple film layers in the etching process by setting multiple invalid pixel circuits 43 in the second display area A2. For example, the invalid pixel circuit 43 may have a structure substantially the same as the first pixel circuit 41 in its row or column, except that it is not electrically connected to any light-emitting element.

[0086] In some examples, at least one first pixel circuit 41 can be electrically connected to at least one first light-emitting element 31 through a conductive connection line 51, and is configured to drive the at least one first light-emitting element 31 to emit light. For example, a single first light-emitting element 31 emitting a first color light (e.g., green G) in the first display area A1 can be driven by a first pixel circuit 41, a single first light-emitting element 31 emitting a second color light (e.g., red R) in the first display area A1 can be driven by a first pixel circuit 41, and a single first light-emitting element 31 emitting a third color light (e.g., blue B) in the first display area A1 can be driven by a first pixel circuit 41. In some examples, the first pixel circuit driving the first region light-emitting element 31 emitting the first color light can be located on the side of the first pixel circuit driving the first region light-emitting element 31 emitting the second color light and the third color light close to the first display area A1. In some examples, the conductive connection line 51 can be made of a transparent conductive material to improve the light transmittance of the display substrate. For example, a plurality of conductive connection lines 51 can be arranged in at least one conductive connection layer. In some other examples, two first light emitting elements 31 emitting first color light (eg, green G) in the first display area A1 may be driven by the same first pixel circuit 41 .

[0087] In some examples, since the second display area A2 is not only provided with a second pixel circuit 42 electrically connected to the second light-emitting element 32, but also provided with a first pixel circuit 41 electrically connected to the first light-emitting element 31, the number of pixel circuits in the second display area A2 is greater than the number of second light-emitting elements 32. In some examples, the area for setting the newly added pixel circuit (including the first pixel circuit 41 and the invalid pixel circuit 43) can be obtained by reducing the size of the second pixel circuit 42 in the first direction D1. For example, the size of the pixel circuit in the first direction D1 can be smaller than the size of the second light-emitting element in the first direction D1.

[0088] In this example, a plurality of pixel circuits in the second display area A2 can be arranged in an array along the first direction D1 and the second direction D2. Each of the original a pixel circuit columns can be compressed along the first direction D1 to add an arrangement space for a new pixel circuit column, and the space occupied by the a pixel circuit columns before compression and the a+1 pixel circuit columns after compression can be the same. Wherein, a can be an integer greater than 1. In some examples, a can be equal to 4. That is, along the first direction D1, a first pixel circuit column 410 or an invalid pixel circuit column 430 can be arranged for every four second pixel circuit columns 420. However, this embodiment is not limited to this. For example, a can be equal to 2 or 3.

[0089] In other examples, the original b pixel circuit rows can be compressed along the second direction D2 to add an arrangement space for a new pixel circuit row, and the space occupied by the b pixel circuit rows before compression and the b+1 pixel circuit rows after compression is the same. Wherein, b can be an integer greater than 1. Alternatively, the area for setting the newly added pixel circuit can be obtained by reducing the size of the second pixel circuit in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2. In this example, the first sub-area can be located on both sides of the first display area along the second direction.

[0090] In this example, a pixel circuit column may include a plurality of pixel circuits sequentially arranged along the second direction D2. A pixel circuit row may include a plurality of pixel circuits sequentially arranged along the first direction D1. A plurality of pixel circuits in a pixel circuit row may all be connected to the same gate line.

[0091] In some examples, in the second display area A2, a plurality of second pixel circuit columns 420, a plurality of first pixel circuit columns 410, and a plurality of invalid pixel circuit columns 430 may be arranged at intervals along the first direction D1. Each second pixel circuit column 420 (also referred to as a column of second pixel circuits) includes a plurality of second pixel circuits 42 arranged in sequence along the second direction D2; each first pixel circuit column 410 (also referred to as a column of first pixel circuits) includes a plurality of first pixel circuits 41 arranged in sequence along the second direction D2, and each invalid pixel circuit column 430 (also referred to as a column of invalid pixel circuits) includes a plurality of invalid pixel circuits 43 arranged in sequence along the second direction D2. For example, in the first sub-area A21, one first pixel circuit column 410 may be arranged every four second pixel circuit columns 420, and in the second sub-area A22, one invalid pixel circuit column 430 may be arranged every four second pixel circuit columns 420. Multiple invalid pixel circuit columns 430 in the third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224 of the second sub-region A22 can be aligned along the second direction D2, and multiple first pixel circuit columns 410 in the first sub-region A21 can be aligned along the second direction D2 with some invalid pixel circuit columns 430 in the third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224.

[0092] In some examples, the plurality of conductive connection lines 51 may extend at least along the first direction D1. The plurality of conductive connection lines 51 may extend from the first display area A1 to the first sub-area A21 of the second display area A2 and connect to the plurality of first pixel circuits 41 in the first sub-area A21.

[0093] Figure 4 is an equivalent circuit diagram of a pixel circuit of at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. The pixel circuit of this exemplary embodiment is described by taking a 7T1C structure as an example. In some examples, such as Figure 4As shown, the pixel circuit of this example may include a first transistor (also referred to as a first reset transistor) T1, a second transistor (also referred to as a threshold compensation transistor) T2, a third transistor (also referred to as a driving transistor) T3, a fourth transistor (also referred to as a data writing transistor) T4, a fifth transistor (also referred to as a first light emission control transistor) T5, a sixth transistor (also referred to as a second light emission control transistor) T6, a seventh transistor (also referred to as a second reset transistor) T7 and a storage capacitor Cst.

[0094] In some examples, such as Figure 4 As shown, the display substrate may include: a scan line GL, a data line DL, a first power line PL1, a second power line PL2, a light emitting control line EML, a first initial signal line INIT1, a second initial signal line INIT2, a first reset control line RST1, and a second reset control line RST2. The first power line PL1 may be configured to provide a constant first power signal VDD to the pixel circuit, the second power line PL2 may be configured to provide a constant second power signal VSS to the cathode of the light emitting element EL, and the first power signal VDD is greater than the second power signal VSS.

In some examples, the second reset control line RST2 electrically connected to the pixel circuit of the jth row and the first reset control line RST1 electrically connected to the pixel circuit of the j+1th row may be an integrated structure, wherein j is an integer greater than 0. In this way, the signal lines of the display substrate can be reduced, and a narrow frame design of the display substrate can be achieved.

[0095] In some examples, the first initial signal line INIT1 can be configured to provide a first initial signal to the pixel circuit, and the second initial signal line INIT2 can be configured to provide a second initial signal to the pixel circuit. For example, the first initial signal can be different from the second initial signal. The first initial signal and the second initial signal can be constant voltage signals, and their sizes can be, for example, between the first power signal VDD and the second power signal VSS, but are not limited thereto. In other examples, the first initial signal and the second initial signal can be the same, and only the first initial signal line can be set to provide the first initial signal.

[0096] In some examples, such as Figure 4As shown, the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the light emitting element EL, and outputs a driving current under the control of the scan signal SCAN, the data signal DATA, the first power signal VDD, the second power signal VSS and other signals to drive the light emitting element EL to emit light. The gate of the fourth transistor T4 is electrically connected to the scan line GL, the first electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is electrically connected to the data line DL, and the second electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the third transistor T3. The gate of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the scan line GL, the second electrode of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the gate of the third transistor T3, and the first electrode of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second electrode of the driving transistor T3. The gate of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the light emitting control line EML, the first electrode of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the first power line PL1, and the second electrode of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the third transistor T3. The gate of the sixth transistor T6 is electrically connected to the light emitting control line EML, the first electrode of the sixth transistor T6 is electrically connected to the second electrode of the third transistor T3, and the second electrode of the sixth transistor T6 is electrically connected to the anode of the light emitting element EL. The first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the gate of the third transistor T3 and is configured to reset the gate of the third transistor T3. The seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the anode of the light emitting element EL and is configured to reset the anode of the light emitting element EL. The gate of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first reset control line RST1, the first electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first initial signal line INIT1, and the second electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the gate of the third transistor T3. The gate of the seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the second reset control line RST2, the first electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the second initial signal line INIT2, and the second electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the anode of the light emitting element EL. The first electrode of the storage capacitor Cst is electrically connected to the gate of the third transistor T3, and the second electrode of the storage capacitor Cst is electrically connected to the first power line PL1.

[0097] In this example, the first node N1 is the connection point of the storage capacitor Cst, the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3 and the second transistor T2, the second node N2 is the connection point of the fifth transistor T5, the fourth transistor T4 and the third transistor T3, the third node N3 is the connection point of the third transistor T3, the second transistor T2 and the sixth transistor T6, and the fourth node N4 is the connection point of the sixth transistor T6, the seventh transistor T7 and the light emitting element EL.

[0098] Below Figure 4 The working process of the pixel circuit is described as follows. Figure 4 The pixel circuit shown in the figure includes a plurality of transistors which are all P-type transistors. In some examples, in a frame display period, the operation process of the pixel circuit may include: a first stage, a second stage and a third stage.

[0099] The first stage is called the reset stage. The first reset control signal RESET1 provided by the first reset control line RST1 is a low-level signal, which turns on the first transistor T1, and the first initial signal provided by the first initial signal line INIT1 is provided to the first node N1, which initializes the first node N1 and clears the original data voltage in the storage capacitor Cst. The scan signal SCAN provided by the scan line GL is a high-level signal, and the light control signal EM provided by the light control line EML is a high-level signal, which turns off the fourth transistor T4, the second transistor T2, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6 and the seventh transistor T7. In this stage, the light-emitting element EL does not emit light.

[0100] The second stage is called the data writing stage or the threshold compensation stage. The scanning signal SCAN provided by the scanning line GL is a low level signal, the first reset control signal RESET1 provided by the first reset control line RST1 and the light control signal EM provided by the light control line EML are both high level signals, and the data line DL outputs the data signal DATA. In this stage, since the first electrode of the storage capacitor Cst is at a low level, the third transistor T3 is turned on. The scanning signal SCAN is a low level signal, which turns on the second transistor T2, the fourth transistor T4 and the seventh transistor T7. The second transistor T2 and the fourth transistor T4 are turned on, so that the data voltage Vdata output by the data line DL is provided to the first node N1 through the second node N2, the turned-on third transistor T3, the third node N3, and the turned-on second transistor T2, and the difference between the data voltage Vdata output by the data line DL and the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3 is charged into the storage capacitor Cst, and the voltage of the first electrode (i.e., the first node N1) of the storage capacitor Cst is Vdata-|Vth|, where Vdata is the data voltage output by the data line DL, and Vth is the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3. The seventh transistor T7 is turned on, so that the second initial signal provided by the second initial signal line INIT2 is provided to the anode of the light emitting element EL, the anode of the light emitting element EL is initialized (reset), the pre-stored voltage inside it is cleared, the initialization is completed, and the light emitting element EL is ensured not to emit light. The first reset control signal RESET1 provided by the first reset control line RST1 is a high level signal, so that the first transistor T1 is turned off. The light control signal EM provided by the light control line EML is a high level signal, so that the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned off.

[0101] The third stage is called the light-emitting stage. The light-emitting control signal EM provided by the light-emitting control line EML is a low-level signal, and the scanning signal SCAN provided by the scanning line GL and the first reset control signal RESET1 provided by the first reset control line RST1 are high-level signals. The light-emitting control signal EM provided by the light-emitting control line EML is a low-level signal, which turns on the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6, and the first power signal VDD output by the first power line PL1 provides a driving voltage to the anode of the light-emitting element EL through the turned-on fifth transistor T5, the third transistor T3 and the sixth transistor T6, driving the light-emitting element EL to emit light.

[0102] During the driving process of the pixel circuit, the driving current flowing through the third transistor T3 is determined by the voltage difference between its gate and the first electrode. Since the voltage of the first node N1 is Vdata-|Vth|, the driving current of the third transistor T3 is:

[0103] I=K×(Vgs-Vth) 2 =K×[(VDD-Vdata+|Vth|)-Vth] 2 =K×[VDD-Vdata] 2 .

[0104] Among them, I is the driving current flowing through the third transistor T3, that is, the driving current driving the light emitting element EL, K is a constant, Vgs is the voltage difference between the gate and the first electrode of the third transistor T3, Vth is the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3, Vdata is the data voltage output by the data line DL, and VDD is the first power signal output by the first power line PL1.

[0105] It can be seen from the above formula that the current flowing through the light emitting element EL has nothing to do with the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3. Therefore, the pixel circuit of this embodiment can better compensate for the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3.

In some other examples, the circuit structure layer may omit the third source-drain metal layer, or the circuit structure layer may further include a fourth source-drain metal layer located on a side of the third source-drain metal layer away from the substrate.

In some examples, the orthographic projections of the fifth pixel via hole, the sixth pixel via hole, and the seventh pixel via hole on the substrate may be rectangular or circular.For example, the orthographic projections of the seventh pixel via and the fifth pixel via on the substrate may overlap, and the orthographic projections of the sixth pixel via on the substrate and the orthographic projections of the seventh pixel via on the substrate may not overlap. In this example, the electrical connection between the pixel circuit and the light-emitting element can be achieved through the second source-drain metal layer, the third source-drain metal layer, and the three conductive connection layers. However, this embodiment is not limited to this. In other examples, the number of conductive connection layers can be one, two, or more.

[0111] In some examples, the orthographic projections of the third switching electrode 233, the fourth switching electrode 234, and the fifth switching electrode 235 on the substrate may be rectangular. The orthographic projections of the third switching electrode 233, the fourth switching electrode 234, and the fifth switching electrode 235 on the substrate may overlap, and may at least partially overlap with the orthographic projection of the second switching electrode 232 on the substrate.

[0112] In some examples, such as Figure 5 As shown, the light emitting structure layer 13 of the display area may include: a pixel definition layer 304 and a plurality of light emitting elements (for example, including a plurality of second light emitting elements located in the second display area and a plurality of first light emitting elements located in the first display area). For example, each light emitting element may include: a stacked first electrode 301, an organic light emitting layer 302, and a second electrode 303. The first electrode 301 of the light emitting element may be an anode. For example, the first electrode 301 of the second light emitting element located in the second display area A2 may be disposed on the fifth flat layer 110, and electrically connected to the fifth transfer electrode 235 through the eighth pixel via hole opened in the fifth flat layer 110. The pixel definition layer 304 is disposed on the first electrode 301 and the fifth flat layer 110, and the pixel definition layer 304 may be provided with a plurality of pixel openings, and one pixel opening may expose at least a portion of the surface of a corresponding first electrode 301. At least a portion of the organic light emitting layer 302 may be disposed in a pixel opening and connected to the corresponding first electrode 301. The second electrode 303 may be disposed on the organic light emitting layer 302 and connected to the organic light emitting layer 302. The organic light emitting layer 302 can emit light of corresponding colors under the drive of the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 303. An isolation column layer can be further provided on the side of the pixel definition layer 304 away from the substrate 10, and the isolation column layer can include a plurality of isolation columns (PS).

[0113] In some examples, the organic light-emitting layer 302 of the light-emitting element may include a light-emitting layer (EML, Emitting Layer), and one or more film layers including a hole injection layer (HIL, Hole Injection Layer), a hole transport layer (HTL, Hole Transport Layer), a hole blocking layer (HBL, Hole Block Layer), an electron blocking layer (EBL, Electron Block Layer), an electron injection layer (EIL, Electron Injection Layer), and an electron transport layer (ETL, Electron Transport Layer). Under the voltage drive of the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 303, the light-emitting characteristics of the organic material can be used to emit light according to the required grayscale.

[0114] In some examples, the light-emitting layers of light-emitting elements of different colors may be different. For example, the red light-emitting element includes a red light-emitting layer, the green light-emitting element includes a green light-emitting layer, and the blue light-emitting element includes a blue light-emitting layer. In order to reduce the process difficulty and improve the yield, the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer on one side of the light-emitting layer may use a common layer, and the electron injection layer and the electron transport layer on the other side of the light-emitting layer may use a common layer. In some examples, any one or more of the hole injection layer, the hole transport layer, the electron injection layer, and the electron transport layer can be made by a single process (a single evaporation process or a single inkjet printing process), and isolation is achieved by means of a surface step difference of the formed film layer or by surface treatment. For example, any one or more of the hole injection layer, the hole transport layer, the electron injection layer, and the electron transport layer corresponding to adjacent sub-pixels may be isolated. In some examples, the organic light-emitting layer can be formed by evaporation using a fine metal mask (FMM, FineMetalMask) or an open mask (Open Mask), or by inkjet technology.

However, this embodiment is not limited to this. For example, the encapsulation structure layer may adopt a five-layer stacked structure of inorganic / organic / inorganic / organic / inorganic.

[0122] In some examples, the first transmission line 55 may be located between two adjacent rows of pixel circuits (e.g., the jth row and the j+1th row of pixel circuits) and extend along the first direction D1. The first transmission line 55 may be connected to the pixel connection electrode to which the invalid pixel circuit is connected to form a power transmission network to facilitate the discharge of static electricity in the second display area.

[0124] In some examples, the orthographic projection of the first pixel connection electrode 401 on the substrate may be roughly a rectangular ring. The orthographic projection of the second pixel connection electrode 402 on the substrate may be roughly a fold line extending along the second direction D2.

In this example, the shapes of the multiple pixel connection electrodes connected to the invalid pixel circuit may be roughly the same as the shapes of the multiple pixel connection electrodes connected to the second pixel circuit, which is beneficial to improve the uniformity of the first source and drain metal layer in the etching process.

[0125] Fig.6D FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a second sub-area of ​​a second display area after forming a second source / drain metal layer according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig.6D As shown, the second source-drain metal layer of the second sub-area may include: a plurality of first power lines (e.g., a first power line PL1a), a plurality of switching electrodes (e.g., including a first switching electrode 231 and a sixth switching electrode 236). The plurality of first power lines PL1a may extend along the second direction D2, for example, in the shape of a zigzag extending along the second direction D2. For example, a first power line PL1a may be connected to the third pixel connection electrode 403 to achieve connection with the active layer of the fifth transistor T5 of the second pixel circuit and the second electrode of the storage capacitor Cst. A first power line connected to the invalid pixel circuit may be connected to the first transmission line 55 to form a power transmission network.

For example, the data line DLa may be connected to the sixth transfer electrode 236 to achieve electrical connection with the second pixel circuit, and is configured to provide a data signal to the second pixel circuit.

[0128] In some examples, the first data transfer line 56 can be connected to the second data transfer line extending along the first direction D1, and connected to the data line close to the third frame area or the fourth frame area through the second data transfer line extending along the first direction D1, so that the data line close to the third frame area or the fourth frame area can be connected to the first frame area from a position away from the third frame area or the fourth frame area through the second data transfer line and the first data transfer line 56. For example, the second data transfer line can be located between adjacent row pixel circuits. The first data transfer line 56 extends to the first frame area, so that the routing lines for transmitting data signals in the first frame area can be centrally arranged in the middle position of the display substrate, which is beneficial to reduce the size of the first frame area and to achieve a narrow frame design.

[0129] In some examples, the second switching electrode 232 can be connected to the first switching electrode 231 to achieve electrical connection with the second pixel circuit. In this example, the second switching electrode 232 can be connected to the anode of the second light emitting element to achieve electrical connection between the second pixel circuit and the second light emitting element.

Figure 7B for Fig. 7A Schematic diagram of the first conductive connection layer in FIG. Figure 7C The diagram is a partial schematic diagram of the second sub-area of ​​the second display area after the second conductive connection layer is formed according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig.7D for Figure 7C Schematic diagram of the second conductive connection layer in FIG. Fig. 7E It is a partial schematic diagram of the second sub-area of ​​the second display area after the third conductive connection layer is formed according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 8 It is a partial schematic diagram of the first conductive connection layer, the second conductive connection layer and the third conductive connection layer of the second sub-region of at least one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0131] In some examples, such as Fig. 7A and, Figure 7B and Figure 8 As shown, the first conductive connection layer of the second sub-area may include: a plurality of first auxiliary wirings 61 and a plurality of transfer electrodes (for example, including the third transfer electrode 233). The plurality of first auxiliary wirings 61 are arranged along the second direction D2. The first auxiliary wiring 61 may include: a first main body 611 extending along the first direction D1, a plurality of first extensions 612 and a plurality of second extensions 613 extending along the second direction D2, and a plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes 614. The plurality of first extensions 612 may be connected to the plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes 614 in a one-to-one correspondence. The plurality of first extensions 612, the plurality of second extensions 613, and the plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes 614 may be connected to the same side of the first main body 611 along the second direction D2. The first main body 611, the plurality of first extensions 612, the plurality of second extensions 613, and the plurality of first auxiliary connection electrodes 614 are an integrated structure.

[0132] In some examples, the orthographic projection of the first extension portion 612 and the second extension portion 613 on the substrate may be approximately in the shape of a folded line extending along the second direction D2. The orthographic projection of the first auxiliary connection electrode 614 on the substrate may be approximately in the shape of a rectangle. The first extension portion 612 and the second extension portion 613 of the same first auxiliary wiring 61 may be arranged at intervals along the first direction D2. Along the second direction D2, the first extension portions 612 and the second extension portions 613 of multiple first auxiliary wirings 61 may be arranged in alignment.

[0133] In some examples, such as Fig. 7A and Figure 7B As shown, the orthographic projection of the first main body 611 on the substrate may be located between the orthographic projection of the scan line GL(j) and the first initial signal line INIT1(j) on the substrate, and the orthographic projections of the first main body 611 and the first initial signal line INIT1(j) on the substrate may partially overlap. In other examples, the orthographic projections of the first main body 611 and the first initial signal line INIT1(j) on the substrate may not overlap. The arrangement of this example can reduce the increase in routing load caused by routing overlap.

[0134] In some examples, such as Fig. 7A , Figure 7B and Figure 8As shown, the orthographic projection of the first extension portion 612 (or the second extension portion 613) on the substrate may partially overlap with the orthographic projection of the storage capacitor Cst of the second pixel circuit on the substrate. The orthographic projection of the first auxiliary connection electrode 614 on the substrate may at least partially overlap with the orthographic projection of the connection position of the fifth transistor of the second pixel circuit and the first power line PL1a on the substrate.

[0135] In some examples, such as Fig. 7A As shown, a single first auxiliary connection electrode 614 can be located between two adjacent third transfer electrodes 233 along the first direction D1. The first auxiliary connection electrode 614 can be aligned with the adjacent third connection electrodes 233 along the first direction D1. The third transfer electrode 233 can be connected to the second transfer electrode 232 to achieve electrical connection with the pixel circuit.

[0136] In some examples, such as Figure 7C , Fig.7D and Figure 8 As shown, the second conductive connection layer of the second sub-area may include: a plurality of second auxiliary traces 62 and a plurality of switching electrodes (eg, including a fourth switching electrode 234). Fig. 7E and Figure 8 As shown, the third conductive connection layer of the second sub-region may include: a plurality of switching electrodes (eg, including a fifth switching electrode 235 ).

[0137] In some examples, such as Figure 7C , Fig.7D and Figure 8 As shown, a plurality of second auxiliary wirings 62 may extend along the second direction D2 and be arranged along the first direction D1. The second auxiliary wiring 62 may include: a second main body 621 extending along the second direction D2 and a plurality of second auxiliary connection electrodes 622. The second main body 621 and the plurality of second auxiliary connection electrodes 622 are an integral structure. The orthographic projection of the second main body 621 on the substrate may be a fold line extending along the second direction D2. The orthographic projection of the second main body 621 on the substrate may be located between the orthographic projection of the data line DLa connected to a second pixel circuit column and the first data transfer line 56 arranged in the second pixel circuit column on the substrate. The orthographic projection of the second main body 621 on the substrate may not overlap with the orthographic projection of the data line DLa connected to the second pixel circuit column and the first data transfer line 56 arranged in the second pixel circuit column on the substrate. The arrangement of this example can reduce the increase in wiring load caused by wiring overlap.

[0138] In some examples, the orthographic projection of the second auxiliary connection electrode 622 on the substrate may be a rectangle. A single second auxiliary connection electrode 622 may be located between two adjacent fourth transfer electrodes 234 along the first direction D1. The second auxiliary connection electrode 622 may be aligned with the adjacent fourth transfer electrodes 234 along the first direction D1. The orthographic projection of the second auxiliary connection electrode 622 on the substrate may cover the orthographic projection of the first auxiliary connection electrode 614 on the substrate. The fourth transfer electrode 234 may be connected to the third transfer electrode 233 to achieve electrical connection with the pixel circuit.

[0139] In some examples, the plurality of first auxiliary wirings 61 and the plurality of second auxiliary wirings 62 may be connected in the second sub-area A22 to form a mesh structure. The insulating layer disposed between the second conductive connection layer and the first conductive connection layer may be a fourth planar layer 108 (eg, Figure 5 The fourth planar layer 108 may be provided with a plurality of auxiliary via holes K1. The second auxiliary connection electrode 621 may be electrically connected to the first auxiliary connection electrode 614 through at least one auxiliary via hole K1.

[0140] Fig. 9 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the arrangement of multiple auxiliary transfer holes in the second sub-area of ​​at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 9 As shown, the first sub-area A21 is located at both sides of the first display area A1 along the first direction D1. The second sub-area A22 may include: a first partition A221 and a second partition A222 located at both sides of the second sub-area A21 along the first direction D1, and a third partition A223 and a fourth partition A224 located at both sides of the first sub-area A21 along the second direction D2. The third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224 are located at both sides of the first display area A1 along the second direction D2.

[0141] In some examples, in the first partition A221 and the second partition A222, the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 may be arranged in a V-shape; in the first partition A221 and the second partition A222, the V-shaped arrangement of the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 is substantially the same. In the third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224, the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 may be arranged in a V-shape; in the third partition A223 and the fourth partition A224, the V-shaped arrangement of the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 is substantially the same. The size of the V-shape formed by the arrangement of the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 in the first partition A221 may be larger than the size of the V-shape formed by the arrangement of the multiple auxiliary adapter holes K1 in the third partition A223. Among them, the maximum length of the V-shaped arrangement formed by the multiple auxiliary transfer holes K1 in the first partition A221 along the first direction D1 can be greater than the maximum length of the V-shaped arrangement formed by the multiple auxiliary transfer holes K1 in the third partition A223 along the first direction D1; the maximum length of the V-shaped arrangement formed by the multiple auxiliary transfer holes K1 in the first partition A221 along the second direction D2 can be greater than the maximum length of the V-shaped arrangement formed by the multiple auxiliary transfer holes K1 in the third partition A223 along the second direction D2. The arrangement method of this example can ensure that the first auxiliary wiring corresponding to each row of pixel circuits in the second sub-area can be connected to the same number of second auxiliary wirings, that is, each row of pixel circuits can correspond to an adjacent number of auxiliary transfer holes, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the arrangement of the auxiliary transfer holes in the second sub-area.

[0142] This example can not only realize the mesh connection of multiple first auxiliary routing lines and multiple second auxiliary routing lines through multiple auxiliary transfer holes, but also improve the situation where the via gap corresponding to adjacent third transfer electrodes (or fourth transfer electrodes, or fifth transfer electrodes) located on the same conductive connection layer connected to each row of pixel circuits is too large, resulting in inconsistent opening environment.

For example, the pixel circuits of the i-2nd column and the i+3rd column include a plurality of invalid pixel circuits, and the pixel circuits of the i-1st column to the i+2nd column and the i+4th column to the i+6th column include a plurality of second pixel circuits. In this example, an invalid pixel circuit column or a first pixel circuit column may be arranged every four second pixel circuit columns. For example, the pixel circuits of the i-2nd column and the i+3rd column may be invalid pixel circuit columns in the first sub-area of ​​the second display area. In some examples, the data line connected to the first pixel circuit column in the first sub-area and the data line connected to the invalid pixel circuit column aligned in the second sub-area may be disconnected, and the data line connected to the first pixel circuit column may be connected to the data line connected to the second pixel circuit column aligned in the second direction by a first light-emitting element connected to the first pixel circuit column through a jumper. A first pixel circuit column located in the first sub-area and an invalid pixel circuit column aligned in the second sub-area may be connected to the same first power line.

For example, the line width of the first auxiliary trace 61 can be the same as the line width of the conductive connection line.

[0167] In this example, by setting multiple first auxiliary routing lines located in the second sub-area and a third auxiliary routing line located in the frame area, and the third auxiliary routing lines and multiple first auxiliary routing lines are connected to a constant voltage signal, the constant voltage signal can be spread over the entire surface of the display substrate, which is beneficial to stabilizing the circuit structure under the conductive connection layer.

[0169] In some examples, the line spacing between adjacent fourth auxiliary traces along the second direction D2 can be determined according to the line spacing between the third main body portions 511 of the conductive connection lines 51 adjacent to each other along the second direction D2. For example, the line spacing between adjacent fourth auxiliary traces along the second direction D2 can be the same as the line spacing between the third main body portions 511 of the conductive connection lines 51 adjacent to each other along the second direction D2.

[0170] In some examples, the line width of the fourth auxiliary line (ie, the line length along the direction perpendicular to the extension) can be determined according to the line width of the conductive connection line 51. For example, the line width of the fourth auxiliary line and the line width of the conductive connection line 51 can be the same.

[0171] In this example, by setting a plurality of fourth auxiliary wirings in the first sub-area, the surrounding environment of the conductive connecting wire can be kept consistent, which is beneficial to optimizing the complicated compensation rules of the conductive connecting wire and improving the etching uniformity of the conductive connecting wire.
