[0002] In the current organic light-emitting diode (OLED) panels, the camera is set below the screen, and the panel above the camera can still display normally and take pictures at the same time. This is the under-screen camera technology.

[0003] During the research and practice of the prior art, the inventors of the present application discovered that based on the current under-screen camera technology, in order to improve the transmittance of the area of ​​the display panel corresponding to the camera, the pixel driving circuit of the sub-pixel connected to the camera area will be set outside the camera area. However, this processing method makes the time for the sub-pixel located at the center of the camera area to receive the signal much longer than the time for the sub-pixel located at the edge of the camera area to receive the signal, which means that the uniformity of the time length of the sub-pixel receiving the signal in the camera area is poor.

In addition, it should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application. In the present application, the various embodiments can be combined with each other but will not be repeated one by one, and in the absence of contrary instructions, the directional words used, such as "upper" and "lower", usually refer to the upper and lower parts of the device in actual use or working state, specifically the drawing direction in the drawings; while "inside" and "outside" refer to the outline of the device; the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are used only as markings, and no numerical requirements are imposed or order is established.

[0056] The embodiments of the present application provide a display panel and a display device, which are described in detail below. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments.

The third direction F3 may be a thickness direction of the display panel 100. Optionally, in some embodiments, the first direction F1 and the second direction F2 may also intersect non-perpendicularly.

[0058] The display panel 100 may have a rectangular shape in a top plan view, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the display panel 100 may have a rectangular shape with vertical corners or rounded corners in a top plan view. The display panel 100 may include two short sides extending in a first direction F1 and two long sides extending in a second direction F2 in a top plan view.

[0059] The display panel 100 may include a display area AA and a display light-transmitting area TA, wherein the display area AA is located at at least one side of the display light-transmitting area TA, for example, the display area AA surrounds the display light-transmitting area TA at a periphery, or the display area AA partially surrounds the periphery of the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0060] The display area AA and the display light-transmitting area TA are both areas including pixels for displaying images, and the display light-transmitting area TA is configured to provide a light-transmitting channel for the camera module.

[0061] Optionally, the camera module may be a camera module for facial recognition, the camera module comprising a transmitter and a receiver, the transmitter being configured to emit infrared light, and the receiver being configured to receive infrared light reflected from a human face.

[0062] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the display panel 100 includes two display light-transmitting areas TA, one display light-transmitting area TA is configured to provide a light-transmitting channel for the transmitter, and the other display light-transmitting area TA is configured to provide a light-transmitting channel for the receiver. However, it is not limited thereto, for example, one display light-transmitting area TA can be used to provide a light-transmitting channel for both the transmitter and the receiver; or the display panel 100 includes one display light-transmitting area TA, and the display light-transmitting area TA is configured to provide a light-transmitting channel for a conventional camera module, such as a single camera module, a multi-camera module, or an infrared camera module.

[0063] Optionally, the display panel 100 includes a substrate 1a, a driving circuit layer 1b, a pixel layer 1c, an encapsulation layer 1d, a touch layer 1e, an optical adhesive layer 1f, and a cover plate 1g. The driving circuit layer 1b is disposed on the substrate 1a, the pixel layer 1c is disposed on the driving circuit layer 1b, the encapsulation layer 1d is disposed on the pixel layer 1c, the touch layer 1e is disposed on the encapsulation layer 1d, the optical adhesive layer 1f is disposed on the touch layer 1e, and the cover plate 1g is disposed on the optical adhesive layer 1f.

[0064] It should be understood that the structure of the display panel 100 disclosed in the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. For example, the touch layer 1e can also be arranged between the encapsulation layer 1d and the pixel layer 1c, or part of the touch layer 1e can be integrated in the pixel layer 1c, or at least part of the touch layer 1e can be integrated in the driving circuit layer 1b.

[0065] Optionally, the pixel layer 1c includes a plurality of sub-pixels 111. The plurality of sub-pixels 111 include a first sub-pixel R, a second sub-pixel B, and a third sub-pixel G. Any two of the first sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel have different luminous colors. The following description is made by taking the first sub-pixel R as a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel B as a blue sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel G as a green sub-pixel as an example, but is not limited thereto.

[0066] Optionally, based on the fact that the first sub-pixel R is a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel B is a blue sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel G is a green sub-pixel, the area of ​​the second sub-pixel B is greater than the area of ​​the first sub-pixel R and the area of ​​the third sub-pixel G, and the area of ​​the first sub-pixel R is greater than the area of ​​the third sub-pixel G.

[0067] It should be understood that, among the organic light-emitting materials per unit area, the blue sub-pixel has the lowest luminous brightness, followed by the red sub-pixel, and the green sub-pixel has the highest. Therefore, the display uniformity can be improved by setting the blue sub-pixel to have the largest area, the red sub-pixel to have the second largest area, and the green sub-pixel to have the smallest area.

[0068] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic top plan view of a display area AA of a display panel 100 according to one or more embodiments of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, in the display area AA, each sub-pixel 111 is connected to a pixel circuit 112, and each pixel circuit 112 is arranged under a sub-pixel 111.

[0069] Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a first top view of a display light-transmitting area TA of a display panel 100 according to one or more embodiments of the present application. Figure 4 In the embodiment, the arrangement pattern of the sub-pixels 111 in the display light-transmitting area TA is consistent with the arrangement pattern of the sub-pixels 111 in the display area AA, but is not limited thereto. For example, the arrangement patterns of the sub-pixels 111 in the two areas may also be different.

[0070] Optionally, in the display light transmission area TA, the first sub-pixel R and the second sub-pixel B are alternately arranged into a mixed color sub-pixel row along the first direction F1. A plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into a pure color sub-pixel row along the first direction F1. The first sub-pixel R and the second sub-pixel B are alternately arranged into a mixed color sub-pixel column along the second direction F2. A plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into a pure color sub-pixel column along the second direction F2. In the first direction F1, the mixed color sub-pixel column and the pure color sub-pixel column are alternately arranged. In the second direction F2, the mixed color sub-pixel row and the pure color sub-pixel row are alternately arranged.

[0071] It should be noted that based on the underlying logic of the sub-pixel rendering (SPR) algorithm, the applicable driving schemes include: Figure 4As shown in the figure), the first pixel circuit pr is used to drive two first sub-pixels R at the same time, the second pixel circuit pb is used to drive two second sub-pixels B at the same time, and the third pixel circuit pg is used to drive four third sub-pixels G at the same time; the second type is to use the first pixel circuit pr to drive two first sub-pixels R at the same time, the second pixel circuit pb is used to drive two second sub-pixels B at the same time, and the third pixel circuit pg is used to drive two third sub-pixels G at the same time; the third type (as shown in the figure) Fig.10 As shown), a first pixel circuit pr is used to simultaneously drive four first sub-pixels R, a second pixel circuit pb is used to simultaneously drive four second sub-pixels B, and a third pixel circuit pg is used to simultaneously drive four third sub-pixels G.

[0072] based on Figure 4 For the drive scheme, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the circuit connection of the display panel 100 according to one or more embodiments of the present application. Figure 5 In the embodiment, the driving circuit layer 1b includes a plurality of pixel circuits 112 and at least a portion of the signal traces 2xh.

[0073] The plurality of pixel circuits 112 include a first pixel circuit pr driving a first sub-pixel R, a second pixel circuit pb driving a second sub-pixel B, and a third pixel circuit pg driving a third sub-pixel G.

[0074] In the display area AA, the plurality of pixel circuits 112 are arranged in the arrangement of the sub-pixels 111. In the display light-transmitting area TA, in the first direction F1, the plurality of pixel circuits 112 include a circuit module 10a, and each circuit module 10a is arranged in the order of a first pixel circuit pr, a third pixel circuit pg, and a second pixel circuit pb.

[0075] The plurality of signal lines 2xh include a plurality of scan lines s1, a plurality of data lines s2, and an anode power line s4. The scan lines s1, the data lines s2, and the anode power line s4 all extend from the display area AA to the display light-transmitting area TA. The anode power line s4 includes a plurality of first line portions s41 and a plurality of second line portions s42, and the first line portions s41 and the second line portions s42 are cross-connected to form a grid structure.

[0076] It should be noted that the scan line s1 is connected to the pixel circuit 112 and increases the scan signal SACN for the pixel circuit 112. The data line s2 is connected to the pixel circuit 112 and increases the data signal DATA for the pixel circuit 112. The anode power line s4 is connected to the pixel circuit 112 and provides the pixel circuit 112 with an anode voltage signal VDD.

[0077] In the display area AA, the scan line s1 and the first wiring portion s41 are extended along the first direction F1, and the data line s2 and the second wiring portion s42 are extended along the second direction F2.

[0078] It should be understood that, based on the SPR algorithm, the arrangement of the pixel circuits 112 in the display light-transmitting area TA is the same as the arrangement of part of the even-numbered rows in the display area AA. Therefore, in the display light-transmitting area TA, the scan lines s1 and the first routing portion s41 of the even-numbered rows in the display area AA extend to the display light-transmitting area TA and are connected to the pixel circuits 112 arranged in the same row. The data line s2 and the second routing portion s42 of the pure color sub-pixel column in the display area AA extend to the display light-transmitting area TA and are connected to the third pixel circuit pg. The data line s2 and the second routing portion s42 of a mixed color sub-pixel column in the display area AA extend to the display light-transmitting area TA and are connected to the first pixel circuit pr. The data line s2 and the second routing portion s42 of a mixed color sub-pixel column in the display area AA extend to the display light-transmitting area TA and are connected to the second pixel circuit pb.

[0079] It should be noted that, when the display panel 100 is single-sided gate driven or double-sided gate driven, the scan lines s1 of the odd-numbered rows in the display area AA can pass through the display light-transmitting area TA to realize the display of the entire row of sub-pixels 111, but the scan lines s1 of the odd-numbered rows are not connected to the circuit module 10a in the display light-transmitting area TA; when the display panel 100 is double-sided gate driven, the scan lines s1 of the odd-numbered rows in the display area AA can realize the display of the entire row of sub-pixels 111 without passing through the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0080] The extra data lines s2 corresponding to the display light-transmitting area TA in the display area AA may pass through the display light-transmitting area TA to realize the display of the entire column of sub-pixels 111; or they may not pass through the display light-transmitting area TA and realize the display of the entire column of sub-pixels 111 through other routing methods.

[0081] The first wiring portion s41 of the odd-numbered rows corresponding to the display light-transmitting area TA in the display area AA may or may not pass through the display light-transmitting area TA. The extra second wiring portion s42 corresponding to the display light-transmitting area TA in the display area AA may or may not pass through the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0082] It is important to understand that Figure 4 and Figure 5 What is shown is only one embodiment of the present application, but it is not limited thereto.

[0083] Figure 6 It shows Figure 4 An enlarged schematic view of Figure 4 and Figure 6In the embodiment, a plurality of sub-pixels 111 are arranged in the display light-transmitting area TA. A plurality of circuit modules 10a are arranged in the display light-transmitting area TA. The circuit module 10a includes at least three pixel circuits 112. A pixel circuit 112 connects at least two sub-pixels 111. A plurality of signal lines 2xh extend from the display area AA to the display light-transmitting area TA, and the signal lines 2xh are configured to provide electrical signals to the pixel circuits 112.

[0084] It should be understood that at least three pixel circuits 112 are concentrated together to form the circuit module 10a to save the layout area of ​​the pixel circuit 112. The pixel circuit 112 is configured to drive the sub-pixel 111 to emit light. The pixel circuit 112 can be one of a 7T1C circuit, a 6T1C circuit, a 5T1C circuit, a 3T1C circuit, etc. Since the pixel circuit 112 is a conventional circuit, it will not be described here.

[0085] It can be understood that the display panel 100 of the embodiment of the present application arranges the circuit module 10a corresponding to the sub-pixel 111 connected to the display light-transmitting area TA in the display light-transmitting area TA to shorten the signal transmission distance between the circuit module 10a and the sub-pixel 111, so as to improve the uniformity of the time length of the sub-pixel 111 receiving the signal in the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0086] Secondly, a pixel circuit 112 is connected to at least two sub-pixels 111 , which can save at least one pixel circuit 112 , so as to increase the light-transmitting area of ​​the light-transmitting display region TA.

[0087] Optionally, the anodes of all sub-pixels 111 connected to the same pixel circuit 112 are connected via a first lead yx1, and the pixel circuit 112 is connected to the first lead yx1 or an anode via a second lead yx2, so that one pixel circuit 112 drives at least two sub-pixels 111 to emit light.

[0088] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first lead yx1 and the second lead yx2 are both transparent leads to increase the light transmission area of ​​the light transmission area TA, thereby increasing its light transmittance. For example, the material of the first lead yx1 and the second lead yx2 can be metal oxide or transparent metal, such as indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, silver, platinum, etc.

[0089] Among them, in the display panel 100 viewed from a top-down perspective, multiple signal lines 2xh are cross-arranged to form multiple intersection areas jx, at least part of the multiple circuit modules 10a are arranged on the intersection area jx, a circuit module 10a corresponds to and overlaps with part of the sub-pixels 111 among the multiple sub-pixels 111, and the signal lines 2xh are partially overlapped with part of the sub-pixels 111 among the multiple sub-pixels 111.

[0090] The display panel 100 of the embodiment of the present application sets the circuit module 10a in the intersection area jx of the signal line 2xh, which can reduce the arrangement area of ​​the circuit module 10a and the signal line 2xh to improve the transmittance of the display light-transmitting area TA; in addition, the partial overlap of the sub-pixel 111 with the circuit module 10a and the partial overlap of the sub-pixel 111 with the signal line 2xh are adopted to increase the light-transmitting area, thereby improving the transmittance of the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0091] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of signal lines 2xh further include a plurality of reset lines s3.

[0092] The extension direction of the scan line s1 and the extension direction of the reset line s3 both intersect with the extension direction of the data line 1s2. The intersection of the first line portion s41 and the second line portion s42 is located in the intersection area jx. In the first direction F1, the data line s2 and the second line portion s42 are arranged in an array. In the second direction F2 intersecting with the first direction F1, the scan line s1, the reset line s3 and the first line portion s41 are arranged in an array.

[0093] It should be noted that the reset line s3 is connected to the pixel circuit 112 and provides a reset signal VI to the pixel circuit 112 .

[0094] In the first direction F1, a scan line s1 connects multiple pixel circuits 112, and a reset line s3 connects multiple pixel circuits 112. In the second direction F2, a data line s2 connects multiple pixel circuits 112. The anode power line s4 is in a grid structure, which can connect multiple pixel circuits 112, for example, can connect all pixel circuits 112.

[0095] Optionally, the first wiring portion s41 and the plurality of second wiring portions s42 of the anode power wiring s4 can be arranged in the same layer, or arranged in different layers and connected through vias. The scan line s1 and the reset wiring s3 are arranged in different layers from the data line s2 to avoid short circuit.

[0096] It should be noted that as long as the scan line s1, the data line s2, the reset line s3 and the anode power line s4 are not short-circuited with each other, the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the film layer positions and connection methods of the four.

[0097] Optionally, in some embodiments, at least one of the data line s2 and the second routing portion s42 is partially overlapped with some of the sub-pixels 111 among the plurality of sub-pixels 111. At least one of the scan line s1, the reset routing s3 and the first routing portion s41 is partially overlapped with some of the sub-pixels 111 among the plurality of sub-pixels 111.

[0098] It is understandable that, since the sub-pixel 111 also has light shielding properties, the sub-pixel 111 is arranged on at least one of the scan line s1, the data line s2, the reset line s3 and the polarity power line s4 to overlap the light shielding area, thereby increasing the light transmission area.

[0099] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of sub-pixels 111 include a plurality of minimum repeating units 10b arranged in an array. Each minimum repeating unit 10b includes at least two first sub-pixels R, at least two second sub-pixels B, and at least two third sub-pixels G. The first sub-pixel R, the second sub-pixel B, and the third sub-pixel G each emit a different light color.

[0100] Each circuit module 10a is connected to a minimum repeating unit 10b. In the circuit module 10a, one pixel circuit 112 of the plurality of pixel circuits 112 is connected to at least two first sub-pixels R. Another pixel circuit 112 of the plurality of pixel circuits 112 is connected to at least two second sub-pixels B. Another pixel circuit 112 of the plurality of pixel circuits 112 is connected to at least two third sub-pixels G.

[0101] It can be understood that, the more sub-pixels 111 a pixel circuit 112 is connected to, the more pixel circuits 112 are saved and the more light-transmitting area is increased.

[0102] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, each circuit module 10a is correspondingly disposed in a region of a minimum repeating unit 10b.

[0103] It can be understood that a circuit module 10a is correspondingly arranged for each minimum repeating unit 10b, so that each circuit module 10a can transmit signals to the minimum repeating unit 10b connected to it, and at the same time, the circuit modules 10a are evenly arranged in the display light-transmitting area TA to improve the uniformity of the duration of driving the sub-pixels.

[0104] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the minimum repeating unit 10b includes two first sub-pixels R, two second sub-pixels B and four third sub-pixels G, and the circuit module 10a includes three pixel circuits 112, one pixel circuit 112 connects the two first sub-pixels R, another pixel circuit 112 connects the two second sub-pixels B, and another pixel circuit 112 connects the four third sub-pixels G.

[0105] Combination Figure 5 That is to say, the first pixel circuit pr drives two first sub-pixels R at the same time, the second pixel circuit pb drives two second sub-pixels B at the same time, and the third pixel circuit pg drives four third sub-pixels G at the same time.

[0106] Optionally, in the minimum repeating unit 10b of the display panel 100 in a top view (eg Figure 6 As shown, two first sub-pixels R and two second sub-pixels B are arranged at the four corner areas of the circuit module 10a, and the two first sub-pixels R and the two second sub-pixels B are respectively overlapped with the circuit module 10a, the circuit module 10a is overlapped with a third sub-pixel G, at least one of the data line s2 and the second routing portion s42 is overlapped with another third sub-pixel G, and at least one of the scan line s1, the reset routing s3 and the first routing portion s41 is overlapped with another third sub-pixel G.

[0107] The above design can increase the light-transmitting area of ​​the light-transmitting display region TA, thereby increasing the light transmittance.

[0108] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the display panel 100 further includes a light shielding layer 1h located in the display light-transmitting area TA. The light shielding layer 1h is located on the side of the circuit module 10a away from the sub-pixel 111. The light shielding layer 1h includes a plurality of first light shielding portions h01 extending along the first direction F1 and a plurality of second light shielding portions h02 extending along the second direction F2. The plurality of first light shielding portions h01 and the plurality of second light shielding portions h02 are cross-connected to form a plurality of light-transmitting openings tg1, and a third light shielding portion h03 is formed at the intersection of the first light shielding portion h01 and the second light shielding portion h02.

[0109] In the display light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 from a top-down perspective, the scan line s1, the reset line s3 and the first line portion s41 are all overlapped with the first light-shielding portion h01, the data line s2 and the second line portion s42 are both overlapped with the second light-shielding portion h02, and the circuit module 10a is overlapped with the third light-shielding portion h03.

[0110] It should be noted that the patterned light-shielding layer 1h is set on the side of the driving circuit layer 1b close to the substrate 1a, and blocks the circuit module 10a and the signal trace 2xh. This can reduce the risk of light emitted by the camera module irradiating the thin-film transistor of the circuit module 10a, so as to improve the stability of the circuit module 10a; at the same time, it can reduce the risk of the light signal emitted by the camera module being reflected back to the receiver by the circuit module 10a and the signal trace 2xh, causing a decrease in recognition accuracy; secondly, the light-shielding layer 1h blocks the circuit module 10a and the signal trace 2xh to reduce the risk of stray light entering the camera module.

[0111] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of sub-pixels 111 are arranged in rows along the first direction F1. A plurality of sub-pixels 111 are arranged in columns along the second direction F2. A row of sub-pixels 111 in every four adjacent rows of sub-pixels 111 overlaps with the first light shielding portion h01. A column of sub-pixels 111 in every at least four adjacent columns of sub-pixels 111 overlaps with the second light shielding portion h02, and at least one sub-pixel 111 overlaps with the circuit module 10a.

[0112] It is understandable that overlapping the light shielding layer 1h and part of the sub-pixel 111 can increase the light transmission area and thus increase the light transmittance.

[0113] Optionally, the material of the light shielding layer 1h may be a black organic material or a metal material, such as molybdenum or a titanium / molybdenum combination.

[0114] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 1 is a schematic diagram showing the layout of a light shielding layer 1 h and sub-pixels 111 in a display light-transmitting area TA in a display panel 100 according to one or more embodiments of the present application.

[0115] In some embodiments of the present application, the minimum repeating unit 10b includes two first sub-pixels R, two second sub-pixels B and four third sub-pixels G. The first sub-pixels R and the second sub-pixels B are alternately arranged into mixed color sub-pixel rows along the first direction F1. A plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into pure color sub-pixel rows along the second direction F2. The first sub-pixels R and the second sub-pixels B are alternately arranged into mixed color sub-pixel columns along the second direction F2. A plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into pure color sub-pixel columns along the second direction F2. In the first direction F1, the mixed color sub-pixel columns and the pure color sub-pixel columns are alternately arranged. In the second direction F2, the mixed color sub-pixel rows and the pure color sub-pixel rows are alternately arranged.

[0116] That is to say, based on Figure 4 and Figure 6 In the corresponding embodiment, in the display light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 in a top-down perspective, one of every two adjacent rows of pure color sub-pixel rows and the first light shielding portion h01 are overlapped. One of every two adjacent columns of pure color sub-pixel columns and the second light shielding portion h02 are overlapped. Each third light shielding portion h03 is overlapped with two first sub-pixels R and two second sub-pixels B at the same time, and each third light shielding portion h03 is overlapped with a third sub-pixel G.

[0117] It can be understood that the third light shielding portion h03 only occupies the layout area of ​​four sub-pixels 111, and the third light shielding portion h03 does not fully cover the four sub-pixels 111 in the four corner areas to increase the light transmission area.

[0118] Please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 It shows Figure 7 Enlarged schematic diagram of the M part.

[0119] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, in the light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 in a top view, the pattern of the light-transmitting openings tg1 is an asymmetric pattern.

[0120] It is understandable that the emitted light signal of the camera module will produce a diffraction effect when passing through the light-transmitting port tg1 of the light-shielding layer 1h. The generation of the diffraction effect is closely related to the interference phenomenon when the light wave encounters a periodic structure. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application sets an asymmetric pattern of the light-transmitting port tg1 to destroy the periodic structure of the light-transmitting port tg1, reduce the occurrence of interference phenomenon and reduce the diffraction effect; at the same time, the asymmetric pattern shape can change the distribution and intensity of the diffraction light, which helps to reduce the intensity of the diffraction light in a specific direction and reduce unnecessary diffraction light to reduce the diffraction effect.

[0121] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the pattern of the light-transmitting opening tg1 includes a first side g01, a second side g02, a third side g03, a fourth side g04, a first corner g11, a second corner g12, a third corner g13, and a fourth corner g14. The first side g01 and the third side g03 are arranged opposite to each other and extend along the first direction F1, the second side g02 and the fourth side g04 are arranged opposite to each other and extend along the second direction F2. The first corner g11 connects the first side g01 and the second side g02, the second corner g12 connects the second side g02 and the third side g03, the third corner g13 connects the third side g03 and the fourth side g04, and the fourth corner g14 connects the fourth side g04 and the first side g01.

[0122] Any two of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 are arranged asymmetrically with each other.

[0123] It can be understood that by setting any two of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 to be asymmetrical with each other, the intensity of diffracted light in the diagonal direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the diffraction effect.

[0124] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, at least one of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 has at least one sub-corner tq, the number of sub-corners tq of the second corner g12 is different from the number of sub-corners tq of the third corner g13, and / or the number of sub-corners tq of the first corner g11 is different from the number of sub-corners tq of the fourth corner g14.

[0125] It can be understood that by setting different numbers of sub-corners tq in the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14, any two of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 can be set asymmetrically to each other.

[0126] Secondly, the setting of the sub-corner tq has the effect of scattering light, which can further improve the distribution of the diffraction light intensity in the diagonal direction, thereby reducing the diffraction effect.

[0127] In some embodiments, the distribution of the diffraction light intensity in the diagonal direction can be further improved by setting the width of the third corner g13 in the second direction F2 to be different from the width of the second corner g12 in the second direction F2, and / or the width of the first corner g11 in the second direction F2 to be different from the width of the fourth corner g14 in the second direction F2, thereby reducing the diffraction effect.

[0128] In some embodiments, the total length of the third corner g13 can be set to be different from the total length of the second corner g12, and / or the total length of the first corner g11 can be set to be different from the total length of the fourth corner g14 to further improve the distribution of the diagonal light intensity, thereby reducing the diffraction effect.

[0129] In some embodiments, the distribution of diffraction light intensity in the diagonal direction can be further improved by setting the angle of the sub-corner tq of the third corner g13 to be different from the angle of the sub-corner tq of the second corner g12, and / or the angle of the sub-corner tq of the first corner g11 to be different from the angle of the sub-corner tq of the fourth corner g14, thereby reducing the diffraction effect.

[0130] Please refer to Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 is based on Figure 7 and Figure 8 The diffraction simulation diagram of the embodiment of the pattern layout of the light shielding layer 1h is shown in FIG. Fig. 9 It can be seen that the diffraction pattern is clear.

[0131] Fig.10 FIG. 1 is a second schematic top plan view of the display light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the present application. Fig.11 The shown is based on Fig.10 Schematic diagram of circuit connections of a display panel 100 corresponding to an embodiment. Fig.12 yes Fig.10 A partial enlarged schematic view of . Fig.13 yes Fig.12 Schematic diagram of retaining the light shielding layer 1h and the sub-pixel 111. Fig.14 It shows Fig.13 Enlarged schematic diagram of part N.

[0132] exist Figures 10 to 13 In the present invention, parts different from those of the above-described embodiment will be described to avoid redundancy.

[0133] Please refer to Fig.10 and Fig.11 The minimum repeating unit 10b includes four first sub-pixels R, four second sub-pixels B, and eight third sub-pixels G. The circuit module 10a includes four pixel circuits 112, one pixel circuit 112 is connected to the four first sub-pixels R, another pixel circuit 112 is connected to the four second sub-pixels B, and the remaining two pixel circuits 112 are connected to the four third sub-pixels G respectively.

[0134] That is, in one circuit module 10a, the first pixel circuit pr drives four first sub-pixels R simultaneously, the second pixel circuit pb drives four second sub-pixels B simultaneously, and the two third pixel circuits pg drive four third sub-pixels G respectively.

[0135] exist Fig.11 In the display area AA, the plurality of pixel circuits 112 are arranged in the arrangement of the sub-pixels 111. In the display light transmission area TA, in the first direction F1, the plurality of pixel circuits 112 include a circuit module 10a, and each circuit module 10a is arranged in the order of a first pixel circuit pr, a third pixel circuit pg, a second pixel circuit pb, and a third pixel circuit pg.

[0136] Please refer to Fig.12 In some embodiments of the present application, in the minimum repeating unit 10b of the display panel 100 in a top view, a first sub-pixel R is overlapped with the circuit module 10a, two second sub-pixels B and four third sub-pixels G are partially overlapped with the circuit module 10a, at least one of the data line s2 and the second wiring portion s42 is partially overlapped with another second sub-pixel B, and at least one of the scan line s1, the reset wiring s3 and the first wiring portion s41 is partially overlapped with another first sub-pixel R. At least one of the scan line s1, the reset wiring s3 and the first wiring portion s41 is partially overlapped with two second sub-pixels B partially overlapped with the circuit module 10a.

[0137] It is understandable that, based on the largest area of ​​the second sub-pixel B, more second sub-pixels B are arranged on the signal trace 2xh to reduce the shading area, thereby increasing the light-transmitting area of ​​the display light-transmitting area TA and thus improving the transmittance.

[0138] Please refer to Fig.12 It should be noted that Fig.12The second routing portion s42 is not shown, but it does not mean that there is no second routing portion s42. For example, the second routing portion s42 is connected to the first routing portion s41 by transferring other film layers through vias.

[0139] Please refer to Fig.13 Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the minimum repeating unit 10b includes four first sub-pixels R, four second sub-pixels B, and eight third sub-pixels G. The first sub-pixels R and the second sub-pixels B are alternately arranged into mixed color sub-pixel rows along the first direction F1, and a plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into pure color sub-pixel rows along the second direction F2. The first sub-pixels R and the second sub-pixels B are alternately arranged into mixed color sub-pixel columns along the second direction F2, and a plurality of third sub-pixels G are arranged into pure color sub-pixel columns along the second direction F2. In the first direction F1, the mixed color sub-pixel columns and the pure color sub-pixel columns are alternately arranged. In the second direction F2, the mixed color sub-pixel rows and the pure color sub-pixel rows are alternately arranged.

[0140] That is to say, based on Fig.10 and Fig.12 In a corresponding embodiment, in the display light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 viewed from a top-down perspective, one of every two adjacent rows of mixed-color sub-pixel rows is overlapped with the first light-shielding portion h01, one of every two adjacent columns of mixed-color sub-pixel columns is overlapped with the second light-shielding portion h02, and each third light-shielding portion h03 is simultaneously overlapped with one first sub-pixel R, two second sub-pixels B, and four third sub-pixels G.

[0141] It can be understood that the first light shielding portion h01 is used to shield the mixed color sub-pixel row with a larger light emitting area, the second light shielding portion h02 is used to shield the mixed color sub-pixel column with a larger light emitting area, and the third light shielding portion h03 is used to shield more sub-pixels 111, so as to increase the light transmission area.

[0142] Please refer to Fig.14 , based on that any two of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 are asymmetrically arranged with each other; and at least one of the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 has at least one sub-corner tq, the number of sub-corner tq of the second corner g12 is different from the number of sub-corner tq of the third corner g13, and / or the number of sub-corner tq of the first corner g11 is different from the number of sub-corner tq of the fourth corner g14.

[0143] exist Fig.14 In the figure, the number of sub-corners tq in the first corner g11, the second corner g12, the third corner g13 and the fourth corner g14 are all different.

[0144] Please refer to Fig.15 , Fig.15 is based on Fig.13 and Fig.14 The diffraction simulation diagram of the embodiment of the pattern layout of the light shielding layer 1h is shown in FIG. Fig.15 It can be seen that the diffraction pattern is clear.

[0145] Fig.16 FIG. 1 shows a third schematic top plan view of the light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the present application. Fig.17 FIG. 1 shows a fourth schematic top plan view of the light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the present application. Fig.18 FIG. 1 is a fifth schematic top plan view of the light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the present application. Fig.19 FIG. 1 is a sixth schematic top plan view of the light-transmitting area TA of the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the present application.

[0146] exist Figures 16 to 19 In the present invention, parts different from those of the above-described embodiment will be described to avoid redundancy.

[0147] It should be noted that Fig.16 and Fig.17 The driving architecture is based on that the first pixel circuit pr drives two first sub-pixels R at the same time, the second pixel circuit pb drives two second sub-pixels B at the same time, and the third pixel circuit pg drives four third sub-pixels G at the same time. Fig.18 and Fig.19 The driving architecture is based on that the first pixel circuit pr drives four first sub-pixels R at the same time, the second pixel circuit pb drives four second sub-pixels B at the same time, and the third pixel circuit pg drives four third sub-pixels G at the same time.

[0148] Please refer to Figures 16 to 19 In some embodiments of the present application, some of the minimum repeating units 10b in the plurality of minimum repeating units 10b are arranged in an array to form a maximum repeating unit 10c, and the plurality of circuit modules 10a are arranged in the middle area of ​​the maximum repeating unit 10c.

[0149] Optionally, a plurality of circuit modules 10a are arranged along the first direction F1.

[0150] in, Fig.16 The maximum repeating unit 10c shown is formed by four minimum repeating units 10b arranged in an array. Fig.17 The maximum repeating unit 10c shown is formed by 16 minimum repeating units 10b arranged in an array. Fig.18 The maximum repeating unit 10c shown is formed by two minimum repeating units 10b arranged in an array. Fig.19The largest repeating unit 10c shown is formed by eight smallest repeating units 10b arranged in an array.

[0151] It is understandable that the maximum repeating unit 10c can also be formed by an array arrangement of other numbers of minimum repeating units 10b, such as 24, 32, 36, 40, 48, 56, 60, 64, 72, 80, 84, 96, 112 or 128.

[0152] Please refer to Fig. 20 and Fig.21 , Fig. 20 Shown is a top plan schematic diagram of a display device 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application. Fig.21 Shown is a schematic cross-sectional plan view of a display device 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0153] Correspondingly, an embodiment of the present application further provides a display device 1000, which includes a camera module 200 and a display panel 100 as described in any one of the above embodiments, and the camera module 200 is arranged on the backlight side of the display panel 100 and corresponds to the display light-transmitting area TA.

[0154] The camera module 200 includes a transmitter 21 and a receiver 22. The transmitter 21 is configured to transmit infrared light, and the receiver 22 is configured to receive infrared light reflected from the face. The transmitter 21 corresponds to a display light-transmitting area TA, and the receiver 22 corresponds to another display light-transmitting area TA. However, it is not limited to this. For example, a display light-transmitting area TA can be used to provide a light-transmitting channel for both the transmitter 21 and the receiver 22; or the display panel 100 includes a display light-transmitting area TA, and the camera module 200 is a conventional camera module, such as a single camera module, a multi-camera module, or an infrared camera module.

[0155] It should be noted that the structure of the display panel 100 of the display device 1000 of the embodiment of the present application is similar to or the same as the structure of the display panel 100 of each of the above embodiments. Figures 1 to 19 The relevant explanation will not be repeated here.

[0156] The display device 1000 of the embodiment of the present application arranges the circuit module 10a corresponding to the sub-pixel 111 connected to the display light-transmitting area TA in the display light-transmitting area TA to shorten the signal transmission distance between the circuit module 10a and the sub-pixel 111, so as to improve the uniformity of the duration of the sub-pixel 111 receiving the signal in the display light-transmitting area TA. Secondly, by arranging the circuit module 10a at the intersection of the signal wiring 2xh, the arrangement area of ​​the circuit module 10a and the signal wiring 2xh can be reduced to improve the transmittance of the display light-transmitting area TA; in addition, by overlapping part of the sub-pixel 111 with the circuit module 10a and part of the sub-pixel 111 with the signal wiring 2xh, the transmittance area is increased, thereby improving the transmittance of the display light-transmitting area TA.

Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application.
