[0076] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. The preferred embodiments of the present application are provided in the drawings. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0079] With the development of society and the advancement of science and technology, touch screen displays have become an indispensable part of modern electronic devices. The touch screen display includes a touch layer and a display layer. The touch layer is used to receive the user's touch operation and convert it into an electrical signal, and the display layer is used to convert the electrical signal into a visual image and present it to the user. The related technology abandons FMM (Fine Metal Mask) and adopts a patterning process to produce luminous pixels, which can improve the PPI (pixels per inch, image resolution) of the display panel. However, the technical solution of using a patterning process to produce luminous pixels requires the isolation structure in the display panel to be hollowed out in the camera hole area of the display panel due to the transmittance requirements. The structure of the display panel, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the display panel includes a display area 23 and a hole area 24 . Figure 2 for Figure 1 A partial schematic diagram of the middle hole area 24, the hole area 24 includes an operable area 1 (Active Area, AA), a screen cut area 2 corresponding to the isolation structure hole area, and a visible area (View Area, VA), and the visible area includes a VA inner circle 3 and a VA outer circle 4. There is no cathode shielding in the hole area 24, which is very likely to increase the coupling capacitance between the touch layer and the display layer in the display panel, thereby causing the problem of crosstalk between the touch signal and the display signal. For example, when the touch is not powered on, the current waveform of the display signal is normal without prominent ripples. After the touch is powered on, the display signal will have prominent ripples due to the problem of crosstalk.
[0080] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a display panel, a display device, a preparation method and a touch detection method, by setting a display panel including a signal layer, the signal layer is set on the side of the substrate and electrically connected to the touch chip; in this way, the signal layer can detect the interference signal generated by the touch layer to the display layer, and transmit the interference signal to the touch chip electrically connected thereto; the touch chip can output a cancellation signal to the signal layer to cancel the interference signal according to the received interference signal, thereby eliminating the interference generated by the touch layer to the display layer, and further improving the display effect of the display panel.

[0123] In an optional embodiment, the pattern of the touch electrodes is a rhombus. Alternatively, the pattern of the touch electrodes may be any one of a triangle, a square, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a trapezoid, and other irregular shapes.
[0124] In an optional embodiment, the pattern of the signal electrode is a rhombus. Optionally, the pattern of the touch electrode can be any one of a triangle, a square, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a trapezoid and other irregular shapes.
[0125] In this embodiment, the pattern of the touch layer 12 (i.e., the pattern of the touch electrodes in the touch layer 12) is the same as the pattern of the signal layer 13 (i.e., the pattern of the signal electrodes in the signal layer 13). This can improve the preparation efficiency and facilitate the signal layer 13 to detect interference signals, thereby improving the effect of canceling the interference signals, and further improving the display effect of the display panel 10.
[0126] See also Fig. 9 In one embodiment, the display panel 10 further includes a display layer 17 , which is disposed on a side of the signal layer 13 close to the substrate 11 , and includes a plurality of light emitting elements disposed at intervals.
[0127] The display panel 10 further includes an isolation structure, which encloses a plurality of isolation openings, and the plurality of light emitting elements are disposed corresponding to the plurality of isolation openings.
[0128] That is to say, the display panel 10 also includes an isolation structure with multiple isolation openings and multiple light-emitting elements. The isolation structure is arranged on the side of the substrate 11 close to the display layer 17. One light-emitting element is arranged corresponding to one isolation opening, or one isolation opening is arranged with at least two light-emitting elements, or there is an isolation opening without a light-emitting element.
[0129] In an optional embodiment, the light emitting element includes a first electrode, a light emitting portion, and a second electrode stacked in a direction away from the substrate 11 , and the second electrode is electrically connected to the isolation structure.
[0130] That is, in the isolation opening of the isolation structure, a first electrode (anode), a light-emitting portion, and a second electrode (cathode) are sequentially stacked, and the second electrode is electrically connected to the isolation structure. The light-emitting portions arranged in different isolation openings may be different, that is, the light-emitting portion may include multiple types of light-emitting portions, for example, the light-emitting portion may include three types of light-emitting portions for emitting light of different colors, namely, a first light-emitting portion, a second light-emitting portion, and a third light-emitting portion.
[0131] In this embodiment, the isolation structure is provided without the need for a mask plate, thereby improving the image resolution and service life of the display panel 10 .
[0132] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the display panel 10 has a display area 23 and a hole area 24 adjacent to the display area 23. The hole area 24 is used to set a camera of the display. The hole area 24 can be set in the display area 23, or can be set outside the display area 23 and connected to the display area 23. This embodiment does not limit the setting positions of the hole area 24 and the display area 23, and the user can set them according to actual applications.
[0133] The touch layer 12 and the signal layer 13 are both disposed in the display area 23 and are disposed around the hole area 24 .
[0134] In this embodiment, a signal layer 13 is provided around the hole area 24 in the display panel 10 . The interference signal can be detected through the signal layer 13 , so that the touch chip 20 sends a cancellation signal to the signal layer 13 to cancel the interference signal, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel 10 .
[0135] In an optional embodiment, the cross-sectional view of the display panel 10 is as follows: Fig.10 As shown, the display panel 10 includes an ink layer 5, an optical adhesive layer 6, a polarizer 7, a first insulating layer 8, a second insulating layer 9, a touch layer 12, a signal layer 13, a hole-digging area 24, and a second electrode 18. Among them, the area formed by the ink layer 5 on the side close to the hole-digging area 24 corresponds to the VA inner circle 3, the area formed by the ink layer 5 on the side away from the hole-digging area 24 corresponds to the VA outer circle 4, the area formed by the optical adhesive layer 6, the polarizer 7, the first insulating layer 8, the second insulating layer 9, and the second electrode 18 on the side close to the hole-digging area 24 corresponds to the screen cutting area 2, and the area formed by the optical adhesive layer 6, the polarizer 7, the first insulating layer 8, the second insulating layer 9, and the second electrode 18 on the side away from the hole-digging area 24 corresponds to the operable area 1.
[0136] Please continue to see Fig.10 In one embodiment, the display panel 10 further includes a hollow region 19 disposed in the same layer as the second electrode 18 , and an orthographic projection of at least part of the signal layer 13 on the substrate 11 overlaps with an orthographic projection of the hollow region 19 on the substrate 11 .
[0137] It can be understood that the hollow area 19 refers to an area without the second electrode 18, and the signal layer 13 is set at a position corresponding to the hollow area 19 in the second insulating layer 9. Among them, the orthographic projection of part of the signal layer 13 on the substrate 11 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the hollow area 19 on the substrate 11, that is, part of the hollow area 19 may be a signal layer 13 corresponding to the setting.
[0138] In this embodiment, a hollow area 19 is provided in the same layer as the second electrode 18, that is, there is no second electrode 18 shielding. By setting the signal layer 13 in the area corresponding to the hollow area 19 in the second insulating layer 9, the interference of the touch layer 12 on the display layer 17 can be eliminated, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel 10.
[0139] In an optional embodiment, the orthographic projection of the hollow area 19 on the substrate 11 is located within the range of the orthographic projection of the signal layer 13 on the substrate 11 .
[0140] That is to say, the outer contour of the orthographic projection of the hollow area 19 on the substrate 11 is located within the range of the outer contour of the orthographic projection of the signal layer 13 on the substrate 11, so that the signal layer 13 completely blocks the hollow area 19, thereby being able to better eliminate the interference of the touch layer 12 on the display layer 17, thereby being able to improve the display effect of the display panel 10.

[0143] The display device 30 provided in this embodiment includes the display panel 10 provided in the above embodiment, and the display device 30 has all the beneficial effects of the display panel 10, which will not be described in detail here.
[0144] See also Fig.12 An embodiment provides a touch detection method. This embodiment takes the touch detection method applied to a touch chip in a display device as an example for explanation. The method comprises the following steps:
[0145] Step 120: Receive the interference signal detected by the signal layer.
[0146] The user's touch operation on the touch layer in the display device generates a touch signal, which includes a target touch signal and an interference signal generated by the coupling capacitance between the touch layer and the display layer. The signal layer receives the touch signal and transmits it to the touch chip.
[0147] After receiving the touch signal transmitted by the signal layer, the touch chip analyzes the touch signal and can determine the target touch signal and the interference signal in the touch signal.
[0148] In an optional embodiment, the touch signal and the offset signal output to the signal layer are as follows: Fig.13 As shown, the touch signal includes a target touch signal and an interference signal. The interference signal in the touch signal can be offset by the offset signal, and the target touch signal is retained.
[0149] In an optional embodiment, the interference signal and the cancellation signal are as follows: Fig.14 As shown, the level of the cancellation signal is opposite to that of the interference signal, and the absolute value of the cancellation signal is less than or equal to the absolute value of the interference signal.
[0150] Step 121: output a cancellation signal to the signal layer according to the interference signal; the cancellation signal is used to cancel the interference signal.
[0151] After determining the interference signal in the touch signal, the touch chip will output a cancellation signal to the signal layer according to the interference signal. The cancellation signal is used to cancel the interference signal in the touch signal.
[0152] The touch detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application receives the interference signal detected by the signal layer, and outputs a cancellation signal to the signal layer according to the interference signal to cancel the interference signal. This can eliminate the interference caused by the touch layer to the display layer, thereby improving the display effect of the display device.
[0153] In one embodiment, an implementation method of receiving an interference signal detected by a signal layer includes:
[0154] The data detected by the receiving signal layer is received, and the coupling capacitance is determined according to the data.
[0155] After receiving the interference signal detected by the signal layer, the touch chip can calculate data based on the interference signal; the data is used to represent the touch capacitance. The coupling capacitance formed by the touch layer and the display layer can be determined based on the data. This embodiment does not limit the specific method of determining the coupling capacitance, as long as its function can be achieved.
[0156] In this embodiment, the coupling capacitance formed by the touch layer and the display layer is determined by receiving data detected by the signal layer. In this way, the coupling capacitance can be offset by outputting an electric field opposite to the coupling capacitance to the signal layer, thereby improving the practicality and reliability of the touch detection method.
[0157] In one embodiment, before receiving the interference signal detected by the signal layer, the touch detection method further includes:
[0158] Set the initial operating parameters of the signal layer, which include voltage and frequency.
[0159] Before the display device is used (i.e., before the touch screen works), the touch chip can set the initial working parameters of the signal layer. The initial working parameters can be the working parameters of the signal layer obtained by the touch chip when the display device was used last time; or they can be input to the touch chip by the user based on actual application and experience. This embodiment does not limit the specific method of setting the initial working parameters of the signal layer, as long as its function can be achieved. The initial working parameters may include the working voltage of the signal layer and the working frequency of the signal layer. For example, the initial working parameters of the signal layer include: the working voltage is 5V and the working frequency is 1kHz.
[0160] In this embodiment, the canceling effect of the signal layer on the interference signal can be improved by pre-acquiring the initial working parameters of the signal layer.
[0161] In an optional embodiment, during the operation of the touch screen, the initial operating parameters of the signal layer may be optimized and adjusted to achieve the best offset effect on the interference signal.
[0162] See also Fig.15 An embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a display panel, the method comprising:
[0163] Step 150: providing a substrate;
[0164] Step 151 : forming a signal layer and a touch layer on one side of a substrate.
[0165] The touch layer is electrically connected to the touch chip, the signal layer is electrically connected to the touch chip, and is used to detect interference signals and transmit the interference signals to the touch chip, so that the touch chip outputs a cancellation signal to the signal layer to cancel the interference signal according to the interference signal. The specific description of the structure of the display panel can refer to the specific description of the display panel in the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0166] The display panel formed by the preparation method provided in this embodiment includes a signal layer, through which the interference signal generated by the touch layer on the display layer can be detected, so that by outputting a cancellation signal to the signal layer to cancel the interference signal, the interference generated by the touch layer on the display layer can be eliminated, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel.
[0167] In one embodiment, Fig.16 As shown, a method for forming a signal layer and a touch layer on one side of a substrate is provided, and the steps of the method for implementing the method include:
[0168] Step 160 , forming a first metal material layer on the substrate, and patterning the first metal material layer to form a plurality of bridges and a signal layer.
[0169] In this embodiment, a plurality of bridges and signal layers are located in the same layer. After a first metal material is formed on a substrate, a plurality of bridges and signal layers can be formed by patterning the first metal material layer using a mask.
[0170] Step 161 : forming a second metal material layer on the first metal material layer, and patterning the second metal material layer to form a touch layer.
[0171] The present embodiment does not limit the materials of the first metal material layer and the second metal material layer, as long as the functions thereof can be achieved. The process methods for patterning the first metal material layer and the second metal material layer can be the same or different. The process methods for patterning can include exposure, development, etching, etc.
[0172] In this embodiment, a first metal material layer is formed on a substrate and patterned using a mask plate to form multiple bridges and signal layers. This eliminates the need to add additional mask plates when preparing the signal layer, thereby reducing preparation costs.
[0173] In the case of using “including”, “having”, and “comprising” described herein, another component may be added unless a clear limiting term such as “only”, “consisting of”, etc. is used. Unless mentioned otherwise, a term in the singular form may include a plural form and should not be understood as being one in number.

To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0175] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the attached claims.
