[0040] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the planar layout structure of the display panel 10 is shown.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the display area 10 a of the display panel 10 includes a plurality of n*m pixel units P arranged in a matrix, m data lines D1 -Dm, and n scan lines G1 -Gn, where m and n are natural numbers greater than 1.
[0042] The n scan lines G1-Gn extend along the first direction F1 and are insulated and arranged in parallel along the second direction F2. The m data lines D1-Dm extend along the second direction F2 and are insulated and arranged in parallel along the first direction F1. The first direction F1 is perpendicular to the second direction F2.
[0043] Corresponding to the non-display area 10 b of the display panel 10 , the display device 100 further includes a timing control circuit 11 for driving the pixel unit P to display an image, a data driving circuit 12 , and a scan driving circuit 13 disposed in the display panel 10 .
[0044] Among them, the timing control circuit 11 is electrically connected to the data driving circuit 12 and the scan driving circuit 13, and is used to receive RGB encoded image signals from the outside, and output corresponding clock signals, synchronization signals and decoded image signals (data signals Data) to the data driving circuit 12 and the scan driving circuit 13 respectively to control the working timing of the two. Specifically, the timing control circuit 11 outputs corresponding timing control signals to the data driving circuit 12 and the scan driving circuit 13 to control when the scan driving circuit 13 outputs the corresponding scan signal and when the data driving circuit 12 outputs the data signal Data corresponding to the image signal.
[0045] The data driving circuit 12 is electrically connected to the m data lines D1 -Dm, and is used to transmit image signals to be displayed to the plurality of pixel units P through the m data lines D1 -Dm in the form of data voltages corresponding to the data signals Data in analog form.
[0046] The scan driving circuit 13 is electrically connected to the n scan lines G1-Gn, and is used to output scan signals to the pixel unit P through the n scan lines G1-Gn, so as to control when the pixel unit P receives the data signal Data. The scan driving circuit 13 outputs scan signals from the n scan lines G1-Gn arranged in position order, and sequentially from the scan lines G1, G2, ..., Gn according to the temporally continuous scan cycles in each frame image display period.
[0047] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 for Figure 1 The circuit structure diagram of any pixel unit shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the pixel unit P includes a control switch tube M1, a driving switch tube M2 and a first energy storage element C1.
[0048] The driving switch tube M2 is connected to the control switch tube M1 through the first node N1, and the driving switch tube M2 is also connected to the first power supply terminal VDD through the second node N2, and is connected to the light-emitting element L through the driving node Nd. The light-emitting element L is connected to the driving node Nd and the second power supply terminal VSS. The first energy storage element C1 is connected to the first node N1 and the second node N2. In this embodiment, the light-emitting element L is a light-emitting diode, wherein the anode of the light-emitting diode as the light-emitting element L is connected to the driving node Nd, and the cathode is connected to the second power supply terminal VSS, and the second power supply terminal VSS can be the ground terminal GND.
[0049] The control switch tube M1 is connected to the data line Dj, the scan line Gi and the first node N1. The control switch tube M1 is used to receive the scan signal Gsi and the data signal Data during the data writing period of a frame image display period. The scan signal Gsi is used to control the corresponding control switch tube M1 to transmit the received data signal Data to the first energy storage element C1. The data signal Data is used to control the driving switch tube M2 to cooperate with the driving power Ids provided by the first power supply terminal VDD to output the corresponding driving current to the light-emitting element L during the light-emitting period of a frame image display period, so as to drive the light-emitting element L to emit light to display an image.
[0050] In this embodiment, the control switch tube M1 and the drive switch tube M2 are P-type low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) thin film transistors. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the control switch tube M1 and the drive switch tube M2 can also be N-type low-temperature polysilicon LTPS thin film transistors.
[0051] Please also read Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, Figure 4 for Figure 3 The driving timing diagram of the pixel unit in the process of image display is shown. Figure 5 for Figure 3 A schematic diagram of current flow in a pixel unit during image display; Figure 6 for Figure 5 The diagram shows the current and voltage changes of the control switch tube M1 in the pixel unit during operation.
[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, in any frame image period, each pixel unit at least includes a data loading phase Td and a light emitting period Te which are continuous and sequentially arranged in time.
[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, in the data loading stage Td, the scan line Gi outputs the scan signal Gsi to the control switch tube M1, the control switch tube M1 is turned on under the control of the scan signal Gsi, and the data signal Data is transmitted to the first energy storage element C1 connected to the first node N1 through the control switch tube M1 for storage. It can be understood that the first energy storage element C1 can maintain the voltage of the first node N1 as the data voltage Vdata corresponding to the data signal Data within a preset period of time.
[0054] During the light-emitting period Te, the scan line Gi stops outputting the scan signal Gsi, the control switch tube M1 is turned off, and the driving switch tube M2 is turned on under the control of the data voltage Vdata of the first node N1. The driving power source VDD cooperates with the data voltage to continuously provide the driving current Ids to the light-emitting element L, wherein the driving current Ids provided to the light-emitting element L is controlled by the driving transistor M2, which satisfies the following formula (1):
[0055]
[0056] Wherein, VDD is the voltage provided by the driving power supply, W and L are respectively the width and length of the conductive channel of the driving switch tube M2, μ is the effective carrier mobility of the driving switch tube M2, Cox is the unit area capacitance of the gate oxide layer in the driving switch tube M2, Vdata is the data voltage Vdata corresponding to the input data signal Data, and Vth is the threshold voltage of the driving switch tube M2.
[0057] In the data loading stage Td, after the control switch tube M1 is turned on, the data signal Data provided by the data line Dj is transmitted along the arrow direction to the first energy storage element C1 connected to the first node N1, so that the voltage Va of the first node N1 is the same as the data voltage Vdata of the data signal Data. At this time, the voltage Va of the first node N1 is used as the off voltage (Voff) of the driving switch tube M2, that is, the voltage Va of the first node N1 has not reached the threshold voltage of the driving switch tube M2, and the driving switch tube M2 is in the off state and is not turned on.
[0058] like Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, in the light-emitting stage Te, when the scanning line Gi does not output the scanning signal Gsi, the control switch tube M1 is turned off, and the first energy storage element C1 maintains the voltage Va of the first node N1, so that the driving switch tube M2 is in the on state, and the voltage Va of the first node N1 reaches the turn-on voltage (Von) of the driving switch tube M2. In which, due to the characteristics of the control switch tube M1 itself, there is a turn-on delay and a turn-off delay in the light-emitting stage Te.
[0059] However, since the control switch tube M1 still has some leakage current I when it is turned off leak If the voltage of the data voltage Vdata in the data line Dj is greater than the voltage Va of the first node N1, the leakage current I leak The direction of the leakage current I is from the data line Dj to the first energy storage element C1. If the voltage Va of the first node N1 is greater than the data voltage Vdata in the data line Dj, the leakage current I leak The flow direction of the first energy storage element C1 flows to the control switch tube M1, so that the leakage current I of the control switch tube M1 leak will be transmitted to the data line Dj. Thus, the leakage current I of the control switch tube M1 isleak The voltage at both ends of the first energy storage element C1 will be affected, and the voltage Va at the first node N1 will change, which will directly affect the opening degree of the driving switch tube M2 and the size of the driving current Ids, and further affect the brightness accuracy of the light emitted by the light-emitting element L. At the same time, the leakage current I generated by the control switch tube M1 leak It will affect the data voltage Vdata on the data line Dj, thereby affecting the accurate transmission of the data signal Data. It can be understood that the leakage current I leak It is used to control the current transmitted between the drain and the source when the switch tube M1 is turned off.
[0060] It can be seen that due to the large leakage current of the LTPS thin film transistor, especially in the low frequency (low refresh rate) display state, the gate and source potential difference of the driving transistor M2 is easily unstable due to the large leakage current, resulting in the unstable driving current Ids of the OLED light emitting element, and the display device 100 flickers. At the same time, the leakage current I leak This will affect the data voltage Vdata on the data line Dj, thereby affecting the accurate transmission of the data signal Data, resulting in the image being unable to be displayed normally and accurately, and resulting in a poor display effect.
[0061] The embodiment of the present application provides a pixel unit P, which can effectively slow down or eliminate the leakage current I in the control switch tube M1. leak The driving current Ids and the data signal Data on the data line Dj are affected, so that the brightness of each pixel unit P in the display area 10a of the entire display panel 10 is more uniform, and the display effect is better.
[0062] Specifically, see Figure 7 , which is as in the first embodiment of the present application Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a circuit structure of a pixel unit P in a display panel 10. Figure 7 As shown, the pixel unit P includes a driving unit 200 and an adjusting unit 300, wherein the adjusting unit 300 is connected between the driving unit 200 and the data line Dj, and the adjusting unit 300 and the driving unit 200 are connected to the scanning line Gi, and the adjusting unit 300 is used to adjust the light during the light emitting period Te ( Figure 8 ) provides a compensation current Icp to the driving unit 200 to compensate for the leakage current I generated when the driving unit 200 is working. leak , thereby improving the working stability and accuracy of the driving unit 200.
[0063] Specifically, the driving unit 200 includes a control switch tube M1, a driving switch tube M2 and a first energy storage element C1. The driving switch tube M2 is connected to the control switch tube M1 through a first node N1, and the driving switch tube M2 is also connected to a first power supply terminal VDD through a second node N2, and is connected to a light-emitting element L through a driving node Nd. The light-emitting element L is connected to the driving node Nd and the second power supply terminal VSS. The first energy storage element C1 is connected to the first node N1 and the second node N2.
[0064] The control switch tube M1 is connected to the first node N1 and the scan line Gi, and is connected to the adjustment unit 300 through the third node N3, and is used to receive the scan signal Gsi from the scan line Gi in the data loading stage Td of a frame image display period, and receive the data signal Data from the self-adjustment unit 300. The scan signal Gsi is used to control the corresponding control switch tube M1 to transmit the received data signal Data to the first energy storage element C1. The data signal Data controls the driving switch tube M2 to cooperate with the driving power provided by the first power supply terminal VDD to output the corresponding driving current Ids to the light-emitting element L during the light-emitting period Te of the frame image display period, so as to drive the light-emitting element L to emit light to display an image.
[0065] In this embodiment, the control switch tube M1 and the driving switch tube M2 can be N-type or P-type low temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) thin film transistors. Among them, the gates of the control switch tube M1 and the driving switch tube M2 can be used as control terminals, and the source and drain are used as conductive terminals respectively. Specifically, the gate of the control switch tube M1 is used as a control terminal to connect the scan line Gi, and the source and drain are used as conductive terminals to connect the data line Dj and the first node N1 respectively. The gate of the driving switch tube M2 is used as a control terminal to connect the first node N1, and the source and drain are used as conductive terminals to connect the second node N2 and the driving node Nd respectively.
[0066] The adjustment unit 300 includes a data loading switch tube M3, an adjustment switch tube M4, a unidirectional conductive element D1, a second energy storage element C2 and a third energy storage element C3.

[0102] In other embodiments of the present application, the data loading switch M3 may also be a P-type LTPS thin film transistor, and the corresponding scanning signal Gsi is a low-potential pulse signal.
[0103] The unidirectional conductive element D1 is connected between the data loading switch M3 and the third node N3, and is used to unidirectionally transmit the data signal Data to the third node N3 and the driving unit 200, while preventing the current in the driving unit 200 from being transmitted to the data loading switch M3 and the data line Dj through the third node N3.

The unidirectional conductive element D1 is used to limit the current direction to only the first conductive end D11 and to the second conductive end D12, and to cut off the current from the second conductive end D12 to the first conductive end D11, thereby isolating the leakage current transmitted by the driving unit 200 from the data line Dj.
[0105] In this embodiment, the unidirectional conductive element D1 is a diode, wherein the first conductive end D11 is the anode of the diode, and the second conductive end D12 is the cathode of the diode.
[0106] The adjustment switch tube M4 is connected to the scan line Gi, the third node N3 and the buffer node Nh, and is used for transmitting the data voltage Vdata received by the third node N3 to the buffer node Nh when receiving the scan signal Gsi.
[0107] The adjustment switch tube M4 includes an adjustment control terminal M40, a first adjustment conductive terminal M41 and a second adjustment conductive terminal M42, wherein the adjustment control terminal M40 is connected to the scan line Gi, the first adjustment conductive terminal M41 is connected to the third node N3, and the second adjustment conductive terminal M42 is connected to the buffer node Nh. The adjustment switch tube M4 is turned on under the control of the scan signal Gsi output by the scan line Gi. When the adjustment switch tube M4 is turned on, the data voltage Vdata loaded on the third node N3 is transmitted to the buffer node Nh through the adjustment switch tube M3.
[0108] In this embodiment, the adjustment switch tube M3 is an N-type LTPS thin film transistor, whose gate can be used as the adjustment control terminal M40, or directly connected to the adjustment control terminal M40, and whose source and drain are respectively used as the first adjustment conductive terminal M51 and the second adjustment conductive terminal M42, or the source and drain are respectively directly connected to the first adjustment conductive terminal M51 and the second adjustment conductive terminal M42.

[0110] The second energy storage element C2 is connected to the buffer node Nh and the ground terminal GND, and is used to maintain the voltage of the buffer node Nh as the data voltage Vdata during a preset period after the self-adjusting switch tube M4 receives the data signal Data. In this embodiment, the second energy storage element C2 is a capacitor.
[0111] Please also read Fig.11 and Fig.12 , Fig.11 for Fig.10 The working timing diagram of the pixel unit P is shown in FIG. Fig.12 for Fig.10 Schematic diagram of the working state of the pixel unit P shown.
[0112] In this embodiment, the data loading stage Td includes a first time period Td1 and a second time period Td2 which are arranged successively in time. In the first time period Td1 of the data loading stage Td, the compensation scanning line Gci outputs the compensation scanning signal Gci to the control switch tube M1, and the scanning line Gi outputs the scanning signal Gsi to the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4. The control switch tube M1 is turned on under the control of the compensation scanning signal Gti, the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4 under the control of the scanning signal Gsi, and the data signal Data is transmitted to the third node N3 through the data loading switch tube M3 and the unidirectional conductive element D1, and is transmitted to the first node N1 and the buffer node Nh respectively through the third node N3, and the first energy storage element C1 and the second energy storage element C2 are stored respectively, so that the voltages of the first node N1, the third node N3 and the buffer node Nh are all the compensation data voltage Vcp. In this embodiment, the compensation data voltage Vcp is greater than the data voltage Vdata corresponding to the data signal Data.
[0113] In the second time period Td2 of the data loading stage Td, the compensation scan line Gci stops outputting the compensation scan signal Gci to the control switch tube M1, and the scan line Gi continues to output the scan signal Gsi. At this time, the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4 maintain the on state, and the control switch tube M1 is turned off, that is, the control switch tube M1 is turned off earlier than the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4.
[0114] In this embodiment, Fig.11 As shown, the compensation scanning signal Gci and the compensation signal Gsi are both pulse signals with the same potential, wherein the pulse signal duration of the compensation scanning signal Gci is the duration of the first period T1, and the pulse signal duration of the scanning signal Gsi is the sum of the durations of the first period T1 and the second period T2.
[0115] Since the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4 are turned on, the voltage of the buffer node Vh will be continuously charged to the compensation data voltage Vdata.
[0116] During the charging and energy storage process of the first energy storage element C1 as a capacitor, the voltage between its two poles will gradually increase over time. The capacitor voltage charging formula is a formula that describes the change of the voltage between the two poles of the capacitor over time. The formula is as follows:
[0117] Vc=V0(1-e^(-t / RC))(2).
[0118] Wherein, Vc represents the voltage between the two electrodes of the capacitor, V0 represents the voltage value when the capacitor starts to charge, t is the charging time, R is the resistance value of the capacitor, C is the capacitance value of the capacitor, and e is a logarithmic function with a natural constant as the base. R and C are known quantities at the beginning of the design, so the voltage Vc of the third node N3 = Vdata(1-e^(-t / RC)) = VDD-VA, and the voltage VA of the first node N1 = VDD-Vdata(1-e^(-t / RC)). It can be concluded that the voltage VA of the first node N1 is related to the charging time, that is, it is related to the duration of the second time period Td2.
[0119] Therefore, the time of the second period Td2 is determined according to the required data voltage Vdata of the first node N1, the control switch M1 is closed earlier than the data loading switch M3, the charging time of the first energy storage element C1 is Td1, and the charging time of the second energy storage element C2 is Td1+Td2. Therefore, by setting the time of the second period Td2, the data voltage Vdata corresponding to the data signal Data can be accurately obtained.
[0120] During the light-emitting period Te, the scan line Gi also stops outputting the scan signal Gsi, the data loading switch tube M3 and the adjustment switch tube M4 are both turned off, the driving switch tube M2 is turned on under the control of the data voltage Vdata of the first node N1, and the driving power supply VDD cooperates with the data voltage to continuously provide the driving current Ids to the light-emitting element L.
[0121] At the same time, Fig.12 As shown, the buffer node Nh is at the compensation data voltage Vcp under the energy storage maintenance of the second energy storage element C2, the voltage Va of the first node N1 is the data voltage Vdata, and the adjustment switch tube M4 provides a leakage current corresponding to the compensation data voltage Vcp to the third node N3 as the compensation current Icp, and the compensation current Icp will flow from the first node N1 to the third node N3 with the leakage current Icp of the driving switch tube M2. leak The voltage Va of the first node N1 does not change, that is, the leakage current I in the driving unit 200 is adjusted by adjusting the switch tube M4. leak The offset compensation is performed to maintain the voltage Va of the first node N1 accurately at the data voltage Vdata, thereby stabilizing the gate-source voltage of the driving switch tube M2 in the driving unit 200, ensuring that the output driving current Ids is also relatively stable, so that the light-emitting element L can accurately emit light to display an image according to the brightness of the data voltage Vdata corresponding to the data signal Data.
[0122] Since the compensation data voltage Vcp is a voltage adjusted in real time according to the driving switch tube M2, it is not a fixed value, that is, the compensation data voltage Vcp is related to the aging degree, gate-source voltage, and source-drain voltage of the driving switch tube M2 device itself. At the same time, the magnitude of the leakage current of the driving switch tube M2 is also related to the aging degree, gate-source voltage, and source-drain voltage of the driving switch tube M2 device itself. Then, when the compensation data voltage Vcp provided by the driving switch tube M2 can effectively adjust the leakage current of the switch tube M4, the leakage current I of the driving switch tube M2 can be dynamically compensated. leak The size of the first node N1 is ensured to be accurately maintained at the data voltage Vdata.
[0123] At the same time, since the voltage Vc of the third node N3 is greater than the voltage VA of the first node N1, that is, the potential of the third node N3 is higher than the voltage of the first node N1, the leakage current I leak Flows to the third node N3, thereby accurately maintaining the voltage VA of the first node N1 at the data voltage Vdata, ensuring that the driving current Ids output to the light-emitting element L is also relatively stable, so that the pixel unit P accurately performs image display and ensures that the display effect of the display panel 20 is better.
[0124] It should be understood that the application of the present invention is not limited to the above examples. For ordinary technicians in this field, improvements or changes can be made based on the above description. All these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present invention.
