Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and more particularly to an array substrate, a display panel, and a display device. Background Technology

[0002] The name UV2A comes from the multiplication of ultraviolet (UV) light with the VA method of the LCD panel. This technology can precisely control the alignment of liquid crystal molecules through ultraviolet light, greatly improving the light transmittance.

[0003] The key to UV2A lies in utilizing a special polymer material as an alignment film to precisely control the tilt of liquid crystal molecules along the ultraviolet light direction. Its precision is measured in picometers (one trillionth of a meter). The advantage of UV2A is that the liquid crystal panel has a simple structure without protrusions or slits. This "dream of liquid crystal engineers" was explored as early as 30 years ago. Today, with the availability of new materials, production equipment, and a perfected processing procedure, this dream has been realized. The simple structure of the liquid crystal panel not only improves production efficiency but also offers many advantages in image quality. Summary of the Invention

[0135] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure. Implementation methods can be carried out in many different forms. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the methods and content can be transformed into one or more forms without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. Therefore, this disclosure should not be construed as limited to the content described in the following embodiments. Without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this disclosure can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0136] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this disclosure shall have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. The terms “first,” “second,” and similar terms used in this disclosure do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Terms such as “comprising” or “including” mean that an element or object preceding the word encompasses the elements or objects listed following the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Terms such as “connected” or “linked” are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.

[0137] As used herein, “approximately” or “substantially the same” includes the stated value and means within an acceptable range of deviation from the specific value, as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art taking into account the measurement in question and the errors associated with the measurement of the specific quantity (i.e., limitations of the measurement system). For example, “substantially the same” may mean a difference relative to the stated value within one or more standard deviations, or within ±30%, 20%, 10%, or 5%. In this specification, “substantially the same” may mean a difference of less than 10%.

[0138] In the accompanying drawings, the thicknesses of layers, films, panels, regions, etc., are enlarged for clarity. Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to cross-sectional views that are schematic diagrams of idealized embodiments. Thus, deviations from the shapes shown in the drawings will be expected as a result of, for example, manufacturing techniques and / or tolerances. Therefore, the embodiments described herein should not be construed as limited to the specific shapes of the regions shown herein, but rather include deviations in shape caused, for example, by manufacturing processes. For example, regions illustrated or described as flat may typically have rough and / or non-linear characteristics. Furthermore, sharp corners illustrated may be rounded. Thus, the regions shown in the figures are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to illustrate the precise shapes of the regions, nor are they intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0139] In this specification, for convenience, terms such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer" are used to indicate orientation or positional relationships in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. This is solely for the purpose of facilitating the description and simplification, and does not imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure. The positional relationships of the constituent elements may be appropriately varied depending on the direction in which the constituent elements are described. Therefore, the use of terms not limited to those described in the specification may be appropriately replaced as needed.

[0140] In this specification, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they may refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; a direct connection or an indirect connection via an intermediate component, or a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the meaning of these terms in this disclosure as appropriate.

[0141] In this specification, "electrical connection" includes the situation where components are connected together by elements that have a certain electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "elements that have a certain electrical function," as long as they enable the transmission of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "elements that have a certain electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other elements with one or more functions.

[0142] In this specification, a transistor is a device that includes at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between the drain electrode (drain terminal, drain region, or drain) and the source electrode (source terminal, source region, or source), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. In this disclosure, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.

[0143] Furthermore, the gate of a transistor can be referred to as the control electrode. In cases where transistors with opposite polarities are used, or where the current direction changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source electrode" and "drain electrode" are sometimes interchanged. Therefore, in this specification, the "source electrode" and "drain electrode" can be interchanged.

[0144] In this specification, "parallel" refers to a state in which two straight lines form an angle of -10° or more and less than 10°, and therefore can include a state in which the angle is -5° or more and less than 5°. Similarly, "perpendicular" refers to a state in which two straight lines form an angle of 80° or more and less than 100°, and therefore can include a state in which the angle is 85° or more and less than 95°.

[0145] In this specification, triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons, or hexagons are not strictly defined; they can be approximate triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons, or hexagons. Small deformations due to tolerances are possible, as are chamfers, curved edges, and other variations.

[0146] In this specification, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may sometimes be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may sometimes be replaced with "insulating layer."

[0147] To keep the following description of the embodiments of this disclosure clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted.

[0148] High-resolution products, such as 8K and 16K displays, are the main direction for future products. However, current 8K products using vertically aligned liquid crystal (VA) have problems with low transmittance and poor color shift.

[0149] In view of this, see Figures 1A-1G , Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G , Figures 6A-6G As shown, this disclosure provides an array substrate, which includes:

[0150] Substrate 1;

[0151] Multiple gate lines 2 are located on one side of the substrate 1 and extend along the first direction X;

[0152] Multiple data lines 3 extend along the second direction Y; specifically, the second direction Y can intersect with the first direction X; specifically, the second direction Y can be perpendicular to the first direction X; specifically, the second direction Y can be the direction of a pixel electrode column, and the first direction X can be the direction of a pixel electrode row.

[0153] Multiple pixel electrodes 4, each pixel electrode 4 including: a first pixel electrode 41 located on one side of the gate line 2, and a second pixel electrode 42 located on the other side of the gate line 2; the first pixel electrode 41 includes: a first sub-pixel electrode 411 and a second sub-pixel electrode 412 distributed along a first direction X; the second pixel electrode 42 includes: a third sub-pixel electrode 421 and a fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 distributed along the first direction X; specifically, for example, combined with Figure 1G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 includes a first pixel electrode 41 located above the gate line 2 and a second pixel electrode 42 located below the gate line 2. The first pixel electrode 41 includes a first sub-pixel electrode 411 located on the left and a second sub-pixel electrode 412 located on the right. The second pixel electrode 42 includes a third sub-pixel electrode 421 located on the left and a fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 located on the right.

[0154] One of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 is electrically connected to one of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. The brightness of the two electrodes electrically connected together is different from the brightness of the other two. Specifically, for example, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 can be electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 421, and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 can be electrically connected to the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422; or, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 can be electrically connected to the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 can be electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 422.

[0155] In this embodiment, the pixel electrode 4 includes a first pixel electrode 41 located on one side of the gate line 2 and a second pixel electrode 42 located on the other side of the gate line 2. The first pixel electrode 41 includes a first sub-pixel electrode 411 and a second sub-pixel electrode 412 distributed along the first direction X. The second pixel electrode 42 includes a third sub-pixel electrode 421 and a fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 distributed along the first direction X. One of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 is electrically connected to one of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. That is, a pixel electrode 4 is divided into upper and lower parts, the upper part is further divided into left and right parts, and the lower part is also divided into left and right parts. The brightness of the two electrically connected parts is different from the brightness of the other two parts. It can form an 8-domain distribution in a sub-pixel. Compared with the conventional 8-domain structure, the array substrate provided in this embodiment has fewer dark lines, better transmittance, and can perform mutual compensation of viewing angles, thereby improving the effect of left and right viewing angle deviation.

[0156] Specifically, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, Figure 7 The dark lines in the conventional 8-domain structure are numerous and have a significant impact on transmittance. Figure 8 The dark lines on the array substrate provided in the embodiments of this disclosure are clearly reduced in number. In comparison, the 8-domain array substrate structure provided in the disclosed embodiments has a significant advantage in improving transmittance. Moreover... Figure 7 The 8-domain structure shown does not have a good liquid crystal angle to compensate for the left and right viewing angles; all the horizontal liquid crystals face to the right, and there are no horizontal liquid crystals facing to the left. Figure 8 The array substrate provided in the present disclosure embodiment can enable mutual compensation of viewing angles between the horizontal liquid crystals in the left and right directions, thereby improving the effect of left and right viewing angle deviation.

[0157] Combination Figure 1A , Figure 1G and Figure 8As shown, in a pixel electrode 4, the first pixel electrode 41 is a U-shaped slit, and the second pixel electrode 42 is an inverted U-shaped slit. In conjunction with the extension direction of the slit F, the first pixel electrode 41 can be set with two liquid crystal alignment directions, which can be 225° and 135° respectively; the second pixel electrode 42 can be set with two liquid crystal alignment directions, which are 315° and 45° respectively. Combined with the left and right divided light and dark areas, an 8-domain alignment method can be formed in a sub-pixel when using SUVA technology.

[0158] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, one of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 is electrically connected to one of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. This connection can be achieved at the layer where pixel electrode 4 is located. For the other two sub-pixel electrodes, they may not be connected at the layer where pixel electrode 4 is located, but can be electrically connected through other structures, such as being connected to the same transistor drain. Specifically, for example, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 are electrically connected at the layer where pixel electrode 4 is located, exhibiting one brightness; while the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 are not electrically connected at the layer where pixel electrode 4 is located, but can both be connected to the same transistor drain (i.e., electrically connected through the drain layer), achieving another brightness. The brightness of the two electrodes connected at the layer where pixel electrode 4 is located can be different from the brightness of the other two.

[0159] It is understandable that the brightness of the two main electrical components connected together is different from the brightness of the other two components. This refers to the comparison of the brightness within a sub-pixel when the display panel is powered on and lit.

[0160] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G , Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G , Figures 6A-6G As shown, the array substrate also includes: multiple transistors T; multiple transistors electrically connected to the same pixel electrode 4, all electrically connected to the same data line 3 and the same gate line 2, for example, as Figure 1BIn this embodiment, three transistors are electrically connected to the same pixel electrode 4: a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a third transistor T3. These three transistors are all electrically connected to the same data line 3 and the same gate line 2. The second sub-pixel electrode 412 is located on the side of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 away from the electrically connected data line 3, and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 is located on the side of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 away from the electrically connected data line 3. The first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 are electrically connected. Specifically, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 are electrically connected in the layer where the pixel electrode 4 is located, and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 are both electrically connected to the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2. In this embodiment, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 are electrically connected in the pixel electrode 4, and the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 are electrically connected. That is, the four parts of the pixel electrode 4 are electrically connected in pairs, which is beneficial for forming an 8-domain distribution within the same pixel electrode 4.

[0161] It should be noted that multiple transistors electrically connected to the same pixel electrode 4 can refer to those electrically connected to the same pixel electrode 4 directly or indirectly. For example, the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 can be directly electrically connected to the pixel electrode 4, while the third transistor T3, since it is electrically connected to the second transistor T2, can also be considered electrically connected to the pixel electrode 4. Specifically, multiple transistors electrically connected to the same pixel electrode 4 can also refer to individual transistors driving the same pixel electrode 4.

[0162] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the array substrate also includes: a first signal line 5 extending along the second direction Y; and a plurality of transistors T including: a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a third transistor T3;

[0163] The control electrode TA of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the gate line 2, the first electrode TB of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the data line 3, and the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. Specifically, the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 can be electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 through the first via K1.

[0164] The control electrode TA of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the gate line 2, the first electrode TB of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the data line 3, and the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421. Specifically, the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 can be electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 421 through the second via K2; the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 can be electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 through the third via K3.

[0165] The control electrode TA of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the gate line 2. The first electrode TB of the third transistor T3 is multiplexed with the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2. The second electrode TC of the third transistor T3 is multiplexed with the first signal line 5.

[0166] Figure 9 It can be Figure 1B The corresponding equivalent circuit diagram shows that S is the data line to the left of the pixel, that is, the signal line for transmitting data signals to the current sub-pixel, i.e., the data line electrically connected to the current sub-pixel. S is the data line to the right of the pixel, and also the data line of the horizontally adjacent pixels. The pixel circuit may include: a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a first capacitor Cpd_bright, a second capacitor Cgp_bright, a third capacitor Cst_bright, a fourth capacitor Clc_bright, a fifth capacitor Cpp_bright-dark, a sixth capacitor Cpd_bright, a seventh capacitor Cpd_dark, an eighth capacitor Cgp_dark, a ninth capacitor Cst_dark, a tenth capacitor Clc_dark, an eleventh capacitor Cpd_dark, a twelfth capacitor CgD, and a thirteenth capacitor CcD; wherein, a first capacitor Cpd_bright is formed between the first pixel electrode 41 and the data line 3, a second capacitor Cgp_bright is formed between the first pixel electrode 41 and the gate line 2, and the overlapping area of ​​the first pixel electrode 41 and the third common trace 23 can be A third capacitor Cst_bright can be formed. A fourth capacitor Clc_bright can be formed between the first pixel electrode 41 and the common electrode on the opposite substrate side. A fifth capacitor Cpp_bright and dark can be formed between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42. A sixth capacitor Cpd_bright can be formed between the first pixel electrode 41 and the adjacent data line 3. A seventh capacitor Cpd_dark can be formed between the second pixel electrode 42 and the data line 3. An eighth capacitor Cgp_dark can be formed between the second pixel electrode 42 and the gate line 2. A ninth capacitor Cst_dark can be formed in the overlapping area of ​​the second pixel electrode 42 and the first common trace 21. A tenth capacitor Clc_dark can be formed between the second pixel electrode 42 and the common electrode on the opposite substrate side. An eleventh capacitor Cpd_dark can be formed between the second pixel electrode 42 and the adjacent data line 3. A twelfth capacitor CgD can be formed in the overlapping area of ​​the gate line 2 and the first signal line 5. A thirteenth capacitor CcD can be formed in the overlapping area of ​​the first signal line 5 and the first common trace 21.

[0167] Specifically, in combination Figure 1A and Figure 9 As shown, since the third transistor T3 is connected to the second transistor T2, the voltage applied to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 will be partially distributed to the twelfth capacitor CgD (and / or, the thirteenth capacitor CcD, and / or, the first signal line 5) through the third transistor T3. This results in the voltage obtained by the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 being lower than the voltage obtained by the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. Consequently, the light emission brightness of the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 is less than the light emission brightness of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, thus forming a display effect with different brightness in the sub-pixels.

[0168] In one possible implementation, the voltage applied to the first signal line 5 can be the same as the voltage applied to the common electrode layer of the opposing substrate, that is, a common voltage is applied.

[0169] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes: a first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A connected to the side of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 facing the third sub-pixel electrode 421; the second electrode TB of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 through the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A. In this embodiment, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 is further provided with a first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A on the side facing the third sub-pixel electrode 421. The wiring method when connecting it to the second electrode TB of the first transistor T1 is simple and neat, which is beneficial to the concise wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0170] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes a connection portion 44 connecting the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422; the connection portion 44 includes a first connection portion 441 extending along the second direction Y, and a second connection portion 442 extending along the third direction Z; one end of the first connection portion 441 is electrically connected to one end of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 facing the third sub-pixel electrode 421, and the other end is electrically connected to the second connection portion 442; the other end of the second connection portion 422 is electrically connected to one end of the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 facing the second sub-pixel electrode 412.

[0171] In this embodiment, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 are directly electrically connected in the layer where the pixel electrode 4 is located through the connection portion 44. The connection portion 44 includes a first connection portion 441 extending along the second direction Y and a second connection portion 442 extending along the third direction Z. The wiring method of the connection portion 44 is simple and regular, which is conducive to the concise wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure when etching patterning when the multiple pattern layouts are more complex.

[0172] In one possible implementation, the third direction Z intersects the first direction X and the second direction Y; the angle formed between the third direction Z and the second direction Y can be 0 to 90°, specifically, the angle formed between the third direction Z and the second direction Y can be 30° to 60°, specifically, the angle formed between the third direction Z and the second direction Y can be 45°.

[0173] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes a third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A connected to the side of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 facing the first sub-pixel electrode 411; the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 421 through the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A. In this embodiment, the third sub-pixel electrode 421 is further provided with a third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A on the side facing the first sub-pixel electrode 411. The wiring method when connecting it to the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is simple and neat, which is beneficial to the concise wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0174] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1GAs shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes: a second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B extending along the second direction Y, and a second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A; one end of the second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B is electrically connected to one end of the second sub-pixel electrode 412 facing the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, and the other end is electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A; the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 through the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A. In this embodiment, the side of the second sub-pixel electrode 412 facing the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 is further provided with a second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B extending along the second direction Y, and a second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A. This facilitates the electrical connection of both the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 to the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2. Furthermore, the wiring method when connecting the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is simple and regular, which is beneficial for the concise wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42. This avoids the risk of short circuit failure during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0175] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the extension direction of the second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B is parallel to the extension direction of the first connection 441, which is beneficial to the simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure when etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are more complex.

[0176] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A has an outer edge f1 of the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion that extends away from the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and along the first direction X; the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A has an outer edge f2 of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion that extends away from the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and along the first direction X.

[0177] The extension line of the outer edge f1 of the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion coincides with the extension line of the outer edge f2 of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion; or, the extension line of the outer edge f1 of the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion at least partially overlaps with the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A; or, the extension line of the outer edge f2 of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion at least partially overlaps with the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A. This facilitates the electrical connection of both the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 to the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2, resulting in simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoiding the risk of short circuits during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0178] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1GAs shown, the connecting line e1 between the center of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A and the center of the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A is parallel to the second direction Y. This helps to simplify the pattern between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, avoiding the risk of short circuits during etching when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0179] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the array substrate includes: a first axis f7 located between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42 and extending along the first direction X; a third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A, which is symmetrical to the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A about the first axis f7.

[0180] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the orthographic projection shape of the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A on the substrate 1 can be trapezoidal, and the orthographic projection shape of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A on the substrate 1 can be trapezoidal; in one possible embodiment, the orthographic projection shape of the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A on the substrate 1 can also be rectangular, semi-circular or semi-elliptical; the orthographic projection shape of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A on the substrate 1 can also be rectangular, semi-circular or semi-elliptical.

[0181] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 includes: a first portion T1C1 of the first transistor extending along the first direction X; the orthographic projection of the first portion T1C1 of the first transistor on the substrate 1 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A on the substrate 1. This facilitates electrical connection between the first portion T1C1 of the first transistor and the first sub-pixel electrode protrusion 41A through the first via K1.

[0182] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 includes: a second part T1C2 of the first transistor extending along the second direction Y and electrically connected to the first part T1C1 of the first transistor; specifically, the orthographic projection of the second part T1C2 of the first transistor on the substrate 1 may have an overlapping area with the orthographic projection of the active pattern 6 on the substrate 1.

[0183] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1GAs shown, the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 includes: a first part T2C1 of the second transistor extending along the first direction X, and a second part T2C2 of the second transistor extending along the second direction Y and electrically connected to one end of the first part T2C1 of the second transistor; the orthographic projection of the first part T2C1 of the second transistor on the substrate 1 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A on the substrate 1, so as to realize the electrical connection between the first part T2C1 of the second transistor and the third sub-pixel electrode protrusion 43A through the second via K2; the orthographic projection of the second part T2C2 of the second transistor on the substrate 1 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A on the substrate 1, so as to realize the electrical connection between the second part T2C2 of the second transistor and the second sub-pixel electrode protrusion 42A through the third via K3.

[0184] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 may further include: a third part T2C3 of the second transistor that is electrically connected to the other end of the first part T2C1 of the second transistor and extends along the second direction Y. Specifically, the orthographic projection of the third part T2C3 of the second transistor on the substrate 1 may have an overlapping area with the orthographic projection of the active pattern 6 on the substrate 1.

[0185] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, at least a portion of the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor projected onto the substrate 1 overlaps with at least a portion of the second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B projected onto the substrate 1. Since the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor and the gate line 2 have an overlapping area, forming a coupling capacitance, the second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B covering a portion of the second portion T2C2 can shield part of the coupling capacitance between the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor and the gate line 2. Furthermore, the overlap between at least a portion of the second portion T2C2 projected onto the substrate 1 and at least a portion of the second sub-pixel electrode extension 42B projected onto the substrate 1 facilitates wiring on the array substrate, reduces wiring width, and optimizes wiring layout.

[0186] In one possible implementation, the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor projected onto the substrate 1 may not overlap with the projected portion 42B of the second sub-pixel electrode onto the substrate 1.

[0187] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1GAs shown, the first signal line 5 has a recessed portion 50; at least a portion of the orthographic projection of the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor onto the substrate 1 is located in the area surrounded by the orthographic projection of the recessed portion 50 onto the substrate 1. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the first signal line 5 has a recessed portion 50, so that while the first signal line 5 and the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 are disposed on the same layer, the second portion T2C2 of the second transistor is avoided, thus preventing a short circuit between the first signal line 5 and the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2.

[0188] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the first signal line 5 includes: a first signal section 51, a second signal section 52, and a third signal section 53 sequentially distributed along the second direction Y; a fourth signal section 54 extending along the first direction X and connecting the second signal section 52 and the first signal section 51; and a fifth signal section 55 extending along the first direction X and connecting the second signal section 52 and the third signal section 53; the extension line of the first signal section 51 coincides with the extension line of the third signal section 53; the extension line of the second signal section 52 does not coincide with the extension line of the first signal section 51; the second signal section 52, the fourth signal section 54, and the fifth signal section 55 constitute a recessed portion 50; the fourth signal section 54 and / or the fifth signal section 55 at least partially overlap with the pixel electrode 4.

[0189] Specifically, the third signal section 53 can serve as the second electrode TC of the third transistor T3. In this way, a portion of the voltage between the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 can be released to the first signal line 5 via the third transistor T3.

[0190] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 1A-1G As shown, the first signal line 5 is on the same layer as the data line 3. Thus, the first signal line 5 is formed simultaneously with the data line 3, which simplifies the fabrication process of the array substrate and reduces its manufacturing cost while achieving different brightness levels within the same sub-pixel.

[0191] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the array substrate also includes: a first common trace 21 located on one side of the gate line 2 and extending along the first direction X; the plurality of transistors T include: a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a third transistor T3 electrically connected to the data line 3;

[0192] The control electrode TA of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the gate line 2, the first electrode TB of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the data line 3, and the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. Specifically, the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 can be electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 through the first via K1.

[0193] The control electrode TA of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the gate line 2, the first electrode TB of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the data line 3, and the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421. Specifically, the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 can be electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 421 through the second via K2; the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 can be electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 through the third via K3.

[0194] The control electrode TA of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the gate line 2. The first electrode TB of the third transistor T3 is multiplexed with the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2. The second electrode TC of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the first common trace 21.

[0195] In this embodiment, since the third transistor T3 is connected to the second transistor T2, the voltage applied to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 will be partially distributed to the first common trace 21 through the third transistor T3. This results in the voltages obtained by the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 being lower than the voltages obtained by the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422. Consequently, the luminous brightness of the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 is less than the luminous brightness of the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, thus creating a display effect with different brightness in the sub-pixels.

[0196] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes: a connection portion 44 connecting the first sub-pixel electrode 412 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, and a first overlapping portion PD1 connected to the connection portion 44; the connection portion 44 includes: a third connection portion 443 extending along the first direction X, a fourth connection portion 444, and a fifth connection portion 445 extending along the second direction Y.

[0197] One end of the third connecting portion 443 is connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411, one end of the fourth connecting portion 444 is connected to the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, one end of the fifth connecting portion 445 is connected to the other end of the third connecting portion 443, and the other end of the fifth connecting portion 445 is connected to the other end of the fourth connecting portion 444; the first overlapping portion PD1 is electrically connected to the first connecting portion 441 and is located away from the connected first sub-pixel electrode 411.

[0198] The second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 421 through the first lap joint PD1.

[0199] In this embodiment, the connecting portion 44 includes a third connecting portion 443 extending along the first direction X, a fourth connecting portion 444, and a fifth connecting portion 445 extending along the second direction Y. The wiring of the connecting portion 44 is neat, which is conducive to the simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure when etching patterning when the multiple pattern layouts are more complex. Moreover, the connecting portion 44 is also connected to the first overlapping portion PD1, so as to facilitate the electrical connection between the first overlapping portion PD1 and the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 through the first via K1.

[0200] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the pixel electrode further includes: a first adapter portion PZ1 extending along the first direction X, a second adapter portion PZ2 extending along the second direction Y, and a second overlapping portion PD2; one end of the first adapter portion PZ1 is electrically connected to one end of the second sub-pixel electrode 412 facing the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422, and the other end of the first adapter portion PZ1 is electrically connected to one end of the second adapter portion PZ2; the other end of the second adapter portion PZ2 is electrically connected to the second overlapping portion PD2; the second electrode TB of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the second sub-pixel electrode 412 through the second overlapping portion PD2. In this embodiment, a first transition portion PZ1, a second transition portion PZ2 extending along the second direction Y, and a second overlapping portion PD2 are also provided on one side of the second sub-pixel electrode 412. This enables the second sub-pixel electrode 412 to be electrically connected to the second electrode TB of the second transistor T2. The wiring method for the electrical connection between the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the second electrode TB of the second transistor T2 is simple and regular, which is beneficial for the concise wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42. It avoids the risk of short circuit failure during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0201] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the extension directions of the second adapter PZ2 and the fifth connector 445 are parallel. This facilitates simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuits during etching when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0202] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the extension line of the first adapter PZ1 coincides with the extension line of the third connection 443. This facilitates simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0203] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the pixel electrode 4 further includes: a third transition portion PZ3 extending along the first direction X, and a third overlap portion PD3; one end of the third transition portion PZ3 is electrically connected to the end of the third sub-pixel electrode 421 facing the first sub-pixel electrode 411, and the other end of the third transition portion PZ3 is electrically connected to the third overlap portion PD3; the second electrode TC of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the third sub-pixel electrode 421 through the third overlap portion PD3. In this embodiment, a third transition portion PZ3 and a third overlap portion PD3 are also provided on one side of the third sub-pixel electrode 421. This achieves electrical connection between the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and the second electrode TB of the second transistor T2, and the wiring method for electrical connection between the third sub-pixel electrode 421 and the second electrode TB of the second transistor T2 is simple and neat, which is beneficial for simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, and avoids the risk of short circuit failure during etching patterning when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0204] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the extension line of the third adapter PZ3 coincides with the extension line of the fourth connector 444. This facilitates simple wiring between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42, avoiding the risk of short circuits during etching when multiple pattern layouts are complex.

[0205] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, a first gap J1 exists between the third connecting portion 443 and the first pixel electrode 41; a second gap J2 exists between the fourth connecting portion 444 and the second pixel electrode 42; a third gap J3 exists between the first transition portion PZ1 and the first pixel electrode 41; and a fourth gap J4 exists between the third transition portion PZ3 and the second pixel electrode 42. Specifically, for example, as... Figure 2G In this structure, the first sub-pixel electrode 411 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 are two brighter parts, while the second sub-pixel electrode 412 and the third sub-pixel electrode 421 are two darker parts. The first transition part PZ1 is electrically connected to the darker second sub-pixel electrode 412, and has a lower applied voltage. It also has a longer relative setting area with the first sub-pixel electrode 411, which has a higher applied voltage. By having a third gap J3 between the first transition part PZ1 and the first sub-pixel electrode 411, it is possible to avoid problems such as breakdown when the two are close together and the voltage difference is large. Similarly, the third transition part PZ3 and the fourth sub-pixel electrode 422 have a fourth gap J4, which can also prevent problems such as breakdown when the two are close together and the voltage difference is large. The third connecting part 443 has a first gap J1 between it and the first pixel electrode 41; the fourth connecting part 444 has a second gap J2 between it and the second pixel electrode 42, which can form a design that is relatively symmetrical with the third gap J3 and the fourth gap J4, which is conducive to the neat and orderly layout of multiple patterns.

[0206] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the array substrate also includes: a fourth overlap portion PD4; the second electrode TC of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the first common trace 21 through the fourth overlap portion PD4.

[0207] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the second terminal TC of the third transistor T3 can be electrically connected to the first common trace 21 through the fourth via K4.

[0208] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2I As shown, Figure 2I It can be Figure 2BThe cross-sectional diagram at the dashed line EF shows that the fourth via K4 can be a semi-via design. The fourth via K4 partially exposes the first common trace 21 and partially exposes the second electrode TC of the third transistor T3. The fourth overlap portion PD4 partially contacts the first common trace 21 and partially contacts the second electrode TC of the third transistor T3 at the fourth via K4, thus electrically connecting the first common trace 21 and the second electrode TC of the third transistor T3 through the fourth overlap portion PD4. Specifically, the semi-via design of the fourth via K4 allows it to form a stepped structure internally, which helps to guide the alignment fluid and avoids moiré patterns on the screen.

[0209] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the fourth overlapping portion PD4 has an outer edge f3 extending along the first direction X, and the second overlapping portion PD2 has an outer edge f4 extending along the first direction X; the first overlapping portion PD1 has an outer edge f5 extending along the second direction Y, and the third overlapping portion PD3 has an outer edge f6 extending along the second direction Y; the extension line of the outer edge f3 of the fourth overlapping portion coincides with the extension line of the outer edge f4 of the second overlapping portion; the extension line of the outer edge f5 of the first overlapping portion coincides with the extension line of the outer edge f6 of the third overlapping portion.

[0210] In this embodiment, the extension line of the outer edge f3 of the fourth overlapping portion coincides with the extension line of the outer edge f4 of the second overlapping portion; the extension line of the outer edge f5 of the first overlapping portion coincides with the extension line of the outer edge f6 of the third overlapping portion. The pattern distribution between the first pixel electrode 41 and the second pixel electrode 42 is simple and regular, avoiding the risk of short circuit failure when etching patterning when the layout of multiple patterns is more complex.

This facilitates electrical connection between the first transistor first portion T1C1 and the first overlapping portion PD1 through the first via K1.

[0212] In one possible implementation, see Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5GAs shown, the second electrode TC of the first transistor T1 includes: a second part T1C2 of the first transistor extending along the second direction Y and electrically connected to the first part T1C1 of the first transistor; specifically, the orthographic projection of the second part T1C2 of the first transistor on the substrate 1 may have an overlapping area with the orthographic projection of the active pattern 6 on the substrate 1.

[0217] In one possible implementation, see Figures 1A-1G As shown, the array substrate further includes: a first common trace 21 located on one side of the gate line 2 and extending along the first direction; the first common trace 21 is disconnected at the position where it intersects with the data line 3. This is to avoid the first common trace 21 overlapping with the data line 3, which would increase the load on the data line 3 and affect the signal transmission of the data line 3.

[0218] In one possible implementation, see Figures 1A-1G , Figures 2A-2G , Figures 3A-3G , Figures 4A-4G , Figures 5A-5G As shown, the array substrate further includes a second common trace group 22 electrically connected to the first common trace 21 and extending away from the gate line 2. The second common trace group 22 includes two second common traces 220. The orthographic projection of the data line 3 on the substrate 1 overlaps with the gap between the two second common traces 220 of the same second common trace group 22 on the orthographic projection of the data line 3 on the substrate 1. The orthographic projections of the second common traces 220 on the substrate 1 are located on both sides of the orthographic projection of the data line 3 on the substrate 1, which can improve the coupling capacitance between the data line 3 and the second pixel electrode 42.

[0220] In one possible implementation, the first common trace 21 and the third common trace 23 can be electrically connected in the display area via a bridging method, or they can be electrically connected in the non-display area. In another possible implementation, the array substrate may further include a non-display area located around the outer edge of the display area. The non-display area may be provided with a ring-shaped common trace surrounding the display area. The first common trace 21 and the third common trace 23 may both be electrically connected to the ring-shaped common trace to have the same common voltage signal.

[0221] In one possible implementation, see Figures 1A-1G As shown, the array substrate further includes a fifth common trace 25 extending along the first direction X and electrically connected to the second common trace 220. The orthogonal projection of the fifth common trace 25 onto the substrate passes through the central region of the orthogonal projection of the second pixel electrode 42 onto the substrate 1.

[0222] In one possible implementation, see Figures 1A-1G As shown, the array substrate further includes a sixth common trace 26 extending along the first direction X and electrically connected to the fourth common trace 240. The orthographic projection of the sixth common trace 26 onto the substrate 1 passes through the central region of the orthographic projection of the first pixel electrode 41 onto the substrate 1.

[0224] In one possible implementation, the length of the slit F perpendicular to the extension direction can be 2 μm to 4 μm. Specifically, the length of the slit F perpendicular to the extension direction can be 3 μm. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, on the array substrate provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, when the length of the slit F perpendicular to the extension direction is reduced to 3 μm, the dark lines almost disappear.

The first conductive layer 7 has a first cutout L1, a second cutout L2, a third cutout L3, and a fourth cutout L4, which can make the liquid crystal twist more uniform, reduce the dark lines corresponding to the pixel electrode, reduce the width of the black matrix, and improve the transmittance of the display panel. In addition, in addition to the vertical electric field formed by the pixel electrode and the common electrode, the pixel electrode and the first conductive layer 7 will form a transverse electric field in the array substrate, which can increase the deflection direction of the liquid crystal and improve the color shift problem of the display panel.

Specifically, the first conductive layer 7 can be the same signal loaded as the common electrode layer of the opposing substrate. The first conductive layer 7 can specifically be a transparent electrode layer, and the material of the first conductive layer 7 can specifically be indium tin oxide.

[0236] In one possible implementation, see Figure 6G As shown, the first conductive layer 7 may further include a first conductive connection portion 71. The orthographic projection of the first conductive connection portion 71 onto the substrate 1 covers the orthographic projection of the data line 3 onto the substrate 1, and also covers the orthographic projection of the gate line 2 onto the substrate 1. In this embodiment, the orthographic projection of the first conductive connection portion 71 onto the substrate 1 covers the orthographic projection of the data line 3 onto the substrate 1. The first conductive connection portion 71 can shield the coupling capacitance between the pixel electrode and the data line 3, as well as the coupling capacitance between the pixel electrode and the gate line 2. This can avoid setting the second common trace 220 (and / or the fourth common trace 240), or reduce the number or line width of the second common trace 220 (and / or the fourth common trace 240), thereby increasing the transmittance of the display panel.

[0238] In this embodiment, the first conductive layer 7 may further include an eighth cutout L8, which can avoid the overlapping capacitance between the gate line 2 and the first conductive layer 7, thus affecting the pixel charging rate. However, if the first conductive layer 7 is completely cutout in the area where the gate line 2 is located, it will lead to light leakage. In this embodiment, the eighth cutout L8 is only set in the part of the first conductive layer 7 that overlaps with the gate line 2, which can reduce light leakage and reduce the overlapping capacitance between the gate line 2 and the first conductive layer 7, thus ensuring the charging rate.

[0239] In one possible implementation, the length h2 of the eighth cutout L8 in the first direction X can be one-fifth to four-fifths of the length h1 of the second cutout L2 in the first direction; in one possible implementation, the length h2 of the eighth cutout L8 in the first direction X can be one-quarter to three-quarters of the length h1 of the second cutout L2 in the first direction; in one possible implementation, the length h2 of the eighth cutout L8 in the first direction X can be one-half of the length h1 of the second cutout L2 in the first direction.

[0240] In one possible implementation, the length h4 of the eighth cutout L8 in the second direction Y can be one-fifth to four-fifths of the distance h3 between the second cutout L2 and the third cutout L3; in another possible implementation, the length h4 of the eighth cutout L8 in the second direction Y can be one-quarter to three-quarters of the distance h3 between the second cutout L2 and the third cutout L3; in yet another possible implementation, the length h4 of the eighth cutout L8 in the second direction Y can be one-half of the distance h3 between the second cutout L2 and the third cutout L3.

[0241] In one possible implementation, the outer edge extension line of the eighth cutout L8 extending along the second direction Y and away from the sixth cutout L6 coincides with an outer edge extension line of the second cutout L2 extending along the second direction Y.

[0242] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 6A-6J as well as Figure 10 As shown, the data line 3 can be located on the side of the gate line 2 away from the substrate 1, the first conductive layer 7 can be located on the side of the data line 3 away from the gate line 2, the pixel electrode 4 can be located on the side of the first conductive layer 7 away from the data line 3, a gate insulating layer can also be provided between the layer where the gate line 2 is located and the layer where the data line 3 is located, an active layer can also be provided between the gate insulating layer and the data line 3 (the active layer can include the active pattern 6, and the active layer material can be amorphous silicon, low-temperature polycrystalline silicon, metal oxide, etc., which are not limited here), a first insulating layer 91 can also be provided between the data line 3 and the first conductive layer 7, and a second insulating layer 92 can be provided between the first conductive layer 7 and the pixel electrode 4.

[0243] Combination Figure 1H , Figure 2H , Figure 3H , Figure 4H , Figure 5H and Figure 6K As shown, this disclosure embodiment performed optical simulations on different array substrate structures. By comparing the horizontal dark lines in the center of the sub-pixels, it can be clearly seen that for those without the first conductive layer 7... Figure 1H , Figure 2H , Figure 3H , Figure 4H , Figure 5H The corresponding array substrate structure, wherein, Figure 2A The structure corresponding to this has the highest transmittance.

[0244] Based on the same inventive concept, this disclosure also provides a display panel, which includes: an array substrate as provided in this disclosure, and a counter substrate disposed opposite to the array substrate, the counter substrate being provided with a common electrode layer.

[0245] In one possible implementation, combined with Figures 6A-6J as well as Figure 10 As shown, the display panel can also be provided with a black matrix 8. The orthogonal projection of the black matrix 8 onto the substrate 1 can cover the orthogonal projection of the gate line 2 onto the substrate 1, and also cover the orthogonal projection of the data line 3 onto the substrate 1. Specifically, the opposing substrate can include an opposing substrate 90, and the black matrix 8 can be located between the opposing substrate 90 and the common electrode layer. Figure 10 (Not shown in the image).

[0246] In one possible implementation, combined with Figure 10 As shown, the first conductive layer 7 is located on the side of the pixel electrode 4 away from the opposing substrate. In this common embodiment, the first conductive layer 7, located on the side of the pixel electrode 4 away from the opposing substrate, can isolate (or shield) the first overlapping capacitance between the pixel electrode 4 and the gate line 2 and the second overlapping capacitance between the pixel electrode 4 and the data line 3, greatly reducing the risk of crosstalk. Simultaneously, due to the presence of the first conductive layer 7, the distance between the pixel electrodes 4 can be reduced, causing the pixel electrode 4 to overlap with the gate line 2 and with the data line 3, reducing the risk of liquid crystal leakage. This reduces the width of the black matrix, increases the pixel aperture ratio, and improves the pixel transmittance.
