[0075] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the embodiments can be implemented in a variety of different forms. A person of ordinary skill in the art can easily understand the fact that the methods and contents can be transformed into various forms without departing from the purpose and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be arbitrarily combined with each other.
[0076] The scales of the figures in this disclosure can be used as a reference for actual processes, but are not limited to this. For example, the width-to-length ratio of the channel, the thickness and spacing of each film layer, and the width and spacing of each signal line can be adjusted according to actual needs. The number of pixels in the display panel and the number of sub-pixels in each pixel are not limited to the numbers shown in the figures. The figures described in this disclosure are only structural schematics, and one embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values shown in the figures.
[0077] In this specification, ordinal numbers such as “first”, “second” and “third” are provided to avoid confusion among constituent elements, and are not intended to limit the number.
[0078] In this specification, for convenience, words and phrases indicating orientation or positional relationships, such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inside," and "outside," are used to illustrate the positional relationships of constituent elements with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of this specification and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure. The positional relationships of constituent elements may be appropriately changed depending on the direction in which each constituent element is described. Therefore, the present disclosure is not limited to the words and phrases described in the specification and may be appropriately replaced according to the circumstances.
[0079] In this specification, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through intermediaries, or internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this disclosure.
[0080] In this specification, a transistor refers to an element that includes at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between a drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and a source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. Note that in this specification, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.
[0081] In this specification, the first electrode can be a drain electrode and the second electrode can be a source electrode, or vice versa. The functions of "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may be interchanged when using transistors with opposite polarity or when the direction of current changes during circuit operation. Therefore, in this specification, "source electrode" and "drain electrode" can be interchanged, and "source terminal" and "drain terminal" can be interchanged.
[0082] In this specification, "electrically connected" includes components connected together via an element having some electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "element having some electrical function" as long as it enables the transfer of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "element having some electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other components with various functions.
[0083] In this specification, "parallel" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than -10° and less than 10°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than -5° and less than 5°. Furthermore, "perpendicular" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than 80° and less than 100°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than 85° and less than 95°.
[0084] In this specification, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may be replaced with "insulating layer."
[0085] The triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons in this specification are not in the strict sense, but may be approximate triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons, etc. There may be some small deformations caused by tolerances, and there may be chamfers, arc edges and deformations.
[0086] The term "about" in the embodiments of the present disclosure does not strictly define the limits and allows for numerical values within the range of process and measurement errors.
[0087] At present, display panels usually reduce the number of chips used to achieve the purpose of reducing production costs. For example, thin-film transistors manufactured by low-temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) technology adopt a multiplexer (MUX) design architecture, and amorphous silicon oxide (a Si / oxide) process adopts a dual gate or triple gate pixel architecture. The applicant found that although the existing display panels can reduce production costs through the above-mentioned architecture, the power consumption is relatively large. Especially for high-resolution and high-refresh display panels, it is easy for the temperature rise of the chip connected to the data line to be too high, resulting in problems such as black screen. In particular, display panels used in vehicle environments work in outdoor environments for a long time, and the demand for temperature rise is also higher. Display panels have an increasingly higher demand for low power consumption. Low power consumption is also conducive to reducing the temperature rise of the chip, so that the display panel can be used in harsh working environments.

In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the first data line group S1 are configured to correspond one-to-one with and be electrically connected to the first sub-pixels 19 of the first, second, and third pixel groups, respectively. For example, the first data line group S1 may include a first data line D1, a seventh data line D7, and a thirteenth data line D13. The first data line D1, the seventh data line D7, and the thirteenth data line D13 are connected in parallel to each other.

In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the second data line group S2 are respectively corresponding to and electrically connected to the second sub-pixels 20 of the first, second, and third pixel groups. For example, the second data line group S2 may include a second data line D2, an eighth data line D8, and a fourteenth data line D14. The second data line D2, the eighth data line D8, and the fourteenth data line D14 are connected in parallel to each other. The second data line D2 is connected to the second sub-pixel 20 (i.e., the sub-pixel P) in the first pixel group 8. 2,1 ) is electrically connected to the eighth data line D8 and the second sub-pixel 20 (ie, the sub-pixel P) in the second pixel group 9. 8,1 ) is electrically connected to the fourteenth data line D14 and the second sub-pixel 20 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the third pixel group 10. 14,1 ) is electrically connected. Thus, the second sub-pixel 20 in each pixel group serves as the target sub-pixel of the second data line group S2, that is, the sub-pixel P 2,1 , sub-pixel P 8,1 and sub-pixel P 14,1 As the target sub-pixel of the second data line group S2.
[0096] In some exemplary embodiments, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, at least two data lines 17 of the third data line group S3 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the third sub-pixels 21 of at least two pixel groups 7. In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the third data line group S3 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the third sub-pixels 21 of the first, second, and third pixel groups. For example, the third data line group S3 may include a third data line D3, a ninth data line D9, and a fifteenth data line D15. The third data line D3, the ninth data line D9, and the fifteenth data line D15 are connected in parallel to each other. The third data line D3 and the third sub-pixel 21 (i.e., the sub-pixel P15) in the first pixel group 8 are connected in parallel to each other. 3,1 ) is electrically connected to the ninth data line D9 and the third sub-pixel 21 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the second pixel group 9. 9,1 ) is electrically connected to the fifteenth data line D15 and the third sub-pixel 21 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the third pixel group 10. 15,1 ) is electrically connected. Thus, the third sub-pixel 21 in each pixel group serves as the target sub-pixel of the third data line group S3, that is, the sub-pixel P 3,1 , sub-pixel P 9,1 and sub-pixel P 15,1 As the target sub-pixel of the third data line group S3.
[0097] In some exemplary embodiments, Figures 3 to 5As shown, at least two data lines 17 of the fourth data line group S4 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the fourth sub-pixels 22 of at least two pixel groups 7. In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the fourth data line group S4 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the fourth sub-pixels 22 of the first, second, and third pixel groups. For example, the fourth data line group S4 may include a fourth data line D4, a tenth data line D10, and a sixteenth data line D16. The fourth data line D4, the tenth data line D10, and the sixteenth data line D16 are connected in parallel to each other. The fourth data line D4 is connected to the fourth sub-pixel 22 (i.e., the sub-pixel P) in the first pixel group 8. 4,1 ) is electrically connected to the tenth data line D10 and the fourth sub-pixel 22 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the second pixel group 9. 10,1 ) is electrically connected to the sixteenth data line D16 and the fourth sub-pixel 22 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the third pixel group 10. 16,1 ) is electrically connected. Thus, the fourth sub-pixel 22 in each pixel group serves as the target sub-pixel of the fourth data line group S4, that is, the sub-pixel P 4,1 , sub-pixel P 10,1 and sub-pixel P 16,1 As the target sub-pixel of the fourth data line group S4.
[0098] In some exemplary embodiments, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, at least two data lines 17 of the fifth data line group S5 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the fifth sub-pixels 23 of at least two pixel groups 7. In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the fifth data line group S5 are respectively arranged to correspond to and be electrically connected to the fifth sub-pixels 23 of the first, second, and third pixel groups. For example, the fifth data line group S5 may include a fifth data line D5, an eleventh data line D11, and a seventeenth data line D17. The fifth data line D5, the eleventh data line D11, and the seventeenth data line D17 are connected in parallel to each other. The fifth data line D5 is connected to the fifth sub-pixel 23 (i.e., the sub-pixel P) in the first pixel group 8. 5,1 ) is electrically connected to the eleventh data line D11 and the fifth sub-pixel 23 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the second pixel group 9. 11,1 ) is electrically connected to the seventeenth data line D17 and the fifth sub-pixel 23 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the third pixel group 10. 17,1 ) is electrically connected. Thus, the fifth sub-pixel 23 in each pixel group serves as the target sub-pixel of the fourth data line group S4, that is, the sub-pixel P 5,1 , sub-pixel P 11,1 and sub-pixel P 17,1 As the target sub-pixel of the fifth data line group S5.
[0099] In some exemplary embodiments, Figures 3 to 5As shown, at least two data lines 18 of the sixth data line group S6 are respectively corresponding to and electrically connected to the sixth sub-pixels 24 of at least two pixel groups 7. In this example, at least two data lines 17 of the sixth data line group S6 are respectively corresponding to and electrically connected to the sixth sub-pixels 24 of the first, second, and third pixel groups. For example, the sixth data line group S6 may include a sixth data line D6, a twelfth data line D12, and an eighteenth data line D18. The sixth data line D6, the twelfth data line D12, and the eighteenth data line D18 are connected in parallel to each other. The sixth data line D6 is connected to the sixth sub-pixel 24 (i.e., the sub-pixel P) in the first pixel group 8. 6,1 ) is electrically connected to the twelfth data line D12 and the sixth sub-pixel 24 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the second pixel group 9. 12,1 ) is electrically connected to the eighteenth data line D18 and the sixth sub-pixel 24 (ie, sub-pixel P) in the third pixel group 10. 18,1 ) is electrically connected. Thus, the sixth sub-pixel 24 in each pixel group serves as the target sub-pixel of the fourth data line group S4, that is, the sub-pixel P 6,1 , sub-pixel P 12,1 and sub-pixel P 18,1 As the target sub-pixel of the sixth data line group S6.
[0100] In some exemplary embodiments, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the pixel groups 7 of adjacent rows correspond one-to-one, and the first pixel groups 8 of adjacent rows correspond one-to-one, the second pixel groups 9 of adjacent rows correspond one-to-one, and the third pixel groups 10 of adjacent rows correspond one-to-one. For example, the first pixel group 8 in the first row (Y1) corresponds to the first pixel group 8 in the second row (Y2), so that the first column (X1) is the first pixel group 8. At the same time, the sub-pixels of the multiple first pixel groups 8 in the first column (X1) correspond one-to-one and are all electrically connected to a data line 17. For example, the first sub-pixel 19 in the first pixel group 8 of the first row (Y1) and the first column (X1) and the first sub-pixel 19 in the first pixel group 8 of the second row (Y2) and the first column (X1) are all connected to the first data line D1, that is, the sub-pixel P 1,1 and sub-pixel P 1,2can be electrically connected to the first data line D1. Thus, the display panel of this example can be driven by a column inversion driving method. The column inversion method refers to reversing the polarity of the data voltage signal every specified number of pixel columns. For the column inversion method, the polarity of the data voltage signal on each data line 17 is always the same polarity (positive or negative), wherein the symbol of the positive polarity is "+" and the symbol of the negative polarity is "-". Through the setting of the above-mentioned pixel architecture, when the display panel is driven by a column inversion driving method, the polarity of the data voltage signal on the data lines 17 (for example, S1-S6) arranged along the Y direction can be alternating positive and negative ("+-+-+-"). Therefore, when displaying the same frame image, the sub-pixel columns arranged along the Y direction are charged with the polarity of the data voltage signal in a "positive-negative-positive-negative" cycle. When displaying the same frame image, the polarities of the data voltage signals charged into any two adjacent columns of sub-pixels 6 are opposite, and the brightness can be averaged. For example, the polarities of the sub-pixels controlled by the first data line D1 and the second data line D2 are opposite, that is, the sub-pixels P 1,1 and sub-pixel P 2,1 The polarity is opposite, the sub-pixel P 1,1 is positive polarity, sub-pixel P 2,1 This achieves uniform distribution of pixel polarity, thereby achieving uniform distribution of pixel brightness on the display panel, and avoiding display problems such as shaking head patterns caused by existing dual-gate technology.
[0101] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of another display panel of this exemplary embodiment. In some exemplary embodiments, a plurality of pixel repeating units 18 are provided, and the plurality of pixel repeating units 18 are arranged along a first direction (X-axis direction). The pixel repeating units 18 may include a first pixel group 8, a second pixel group 9, and a third pixel group 10. The first pixel group 8, the second pixel group 9, and the third pixel group 10 are arranged sequentially in the first direction (X-axis direction). At the same time, the data line structure has only six groups of data line groups 16, namely S1 to S6, and the plurality of pixel groups in each row of sub-pixels 6 are arranged to be electrically connected to the six data line groups 16. In some exemplary embodiments, as Figure 6As shown, there are two pixel repeating units 18, and each data line group 16 includes six data lines 17 connected in parallel. Six sub-pixels with the same polarity and emitted light color in a pixel repeating unit 18 are each connected to one data line group 16 via the six data lines 17. For example, a first data line group S1 includes six data lines connected in parallel, namely, a first data line D1, a seventh data line D7, a thirteenth data line D13, a nineteenth data line D19, a twenty-fifth data line D25, and a thirty-first data line D31. The first data line D1, the seventh data line D7, and the thirteenth data line D13 are each connected to a first sub-pixel 19 in one pixel repeating unit 18, while the nineteenth data line D19, the twenty-fifth data line D25, and the thirty-first data line D31 are each connected to a first sub-pixel 19 in another pixel repeating unit 18. Thus, each of the six data line groups 16 is connected to a driver chip, and the number of driver chips corresponds to the number of data line groups 16. This reduces the number of chips used, thereby reducing power consumption.
[0102] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of another display panel of this exemplary embodiment. In some exemplary embodiments, a plurality of pixel repeating units 18 are provided, and the plurality of pixel repeating units 18 are arranged along the first direction (X-axis direction). The pixel repeating unit 18 may include a first pixel group 8, a second pixel group 9, and a third pixel group 10. The first pixel group 8, the second pixel group 9, and the third pixel group 10 are arranged sequentially in the first direction (X-axis direction). At the same time, the data line structure has only 6×m data line groups 16, where m is a positive integer greater than 1. Each adjacent data line group 16 has two data lines 17 in parallel. Six adjacent data line groups 16 constitute a data line unit S0. The three pixel groups of each pixel repeating unit 18 are configured to be electrically connected to a data line unit S0, forming a one-to-one correspondence and electrical connection between the data line unit S0 and the pixel repeating unit 18. In some exemplary embodiments, as Figure 7As shown, there are two pixel repeating units 18, the number of data line groups 16 is 12, m=2, and the data line structure includes two data line units S0. One data line unit S0 includes six data line groups 16, namely, a first data line group S1, a second data line group S2, a third data line group S3, a fourth data line group S4, a fifth data line group S5, and a sixth data line group S6. The other data line unit S0 includes six data line groups 16, namely, a seventh data line group S7, an eighth data line group S8, a ninth data line group S9, a tenth data line group S10, an eleventh data line group S11, and a twelfth data line group S12. One data line unit S0 (i.e., S1 to S6) is electrically connected to one pixel repeating unit 18. For example, the first data line group S1 includes three parallel data lines: the first data line D1, the seventh data line D7, and the thirteenth data line D13. The first data line D1, the seventh data line D7, and the thirteenth data line D13 are each connected to a first sub-pixel 19 in a pixel repeating unit 18. Another data line unit S0 (i.e., S7 to S12) is electrically connected to another pixel repeating unit 18. For example, the nineteenth data line D19, the twenty-fifth data line D25, and the thirty-first data line D31 are each connected to a first sub-pixel 19 in another pixel repeating unit 18. Thus, the six data line groups 16 are each connected to a driver chip, and the number of driver chips corresponds to the number of data line groups 16. This reduces the number of chips used, thereby reducing power consumption.

[0108] Figure 13 for Figure 3 In some exemplary embodiments, as shown in FIG.

[0109] Figure 14 is a schematic diagram of a related display panel. Figure 15 is another related schematic diagram of a display panel. Figure 16 is a schematic diagram of another related display panel. Figure 17 for Figure 16 A partial schematic diagram of the display panel in FIG. Figure 18 for Figure 16 The first row of sub-pixel driving timing diagram of the display panel in FIG. 1 is shown in FIG. 1 . In some exemplary embodiments, the current display panel has three types of tri-gate pixel architectures. Figure 14 The display panel in the NVIDIA NVIDIA GeForce 500 uses the first three-gate pixel architecture. Figure 15 The display panel in the CMOS image sensor adopts the second three-gate pixel architecture. Figure 16 The display panel in the third three-gate pixel architecture adopts the third three-gate pixel architecture. The applicant found that the display panels of these three three-gate pixel architectures adopt 1+2dot or column inversion drive. When 1+2dot drive is used to achieve dot inversion, the chip driving frequency of the data line is high, the power consumption is large, and there is a risk of monochrome vertical stripes caused by charging differences. When column inversion drive is used, the distribution of pixel polarity space is uneven, which will cause the bad condition of shaking head stripes. From the perspective of aperture ratio, the aperture ratio at the position of sub-pixel 6 is low, among which, Figure 14 The display panel in the display has the lowest aperture ratio. Figure 16 The display panel in the third type of triple-gate pixel structure has the highest aperture ratio. Figure 17 As shown, in order to improve the aperture ratio, the gate line (G1) is adjacent to the pixel electrode (P), so that the connection electrode (P) connecting the pixel electrode (P) and the transistor (T1) 1-1 ) away from the pixel electrode (P), the black matrix portion corresponding to the gate line (G1) can be narrowed, but it will cause the connection electrode (P 1-1 ) and the next row of gate lines (G2) are too close to each other. 2-2 ) is at a distance L5 from the next row of gate lines (G3), L5 is significantly greater than L4, and the connection electrodes are different. Figure 16 The timing diagram of the display panel is shown as Figure 18 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, Figure 18 As shown, when the gate line (G1) is turned on, the voltage of the sub-pixel connected to the gate line (G1) is pulled high as shown by P1. When the pixel electrode is continuously charged, the pixel voltage is then pulled back. When the gate line (G1) is turned off, the voltage of the transistor will pull the pixel voltage down, forming its own feedback voltage △V1. Similarly, when the gate line (G1) is turned off, the voltage of the sub-pixel connected to the gate line (G1) will be pulled down, forming another feedback voltage △V1', and so on. The feedback voltages of the sub-pixels connected to different gate lines are also different, for example, △V1 and △V2 are different. Since L5 is greater than L4, △V2' will be greater than △V1', and the sub-pixels connected to the gate line (G3) have no other feedback voltages. Therefore, the feedback voltages of the sub-pixels connected to different gate lines are different, and it is impossible to form a unified reference voltage for compensation. Figure 16 and Figure 17 The display panel shown in the figure will form vertical stripes with a width of six sub-pixels as the unit. Figure 3 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 As shown, the connecting electrodes (32, 35, 38) are respectively adjacent to the corresponding pixel electrodes (30, 33, 36), so that the distance between the connecting electrodes and the next row of gate lines is increased, reducing the secondary coupling of the next row of gate lines to the drain, thereby reducing the feedback voltage difference, where L≥7um, in order to reduce other feedback voltages and ensure that the feedback voltage of each sub-pixel itself is consistent, so that the storage capacitors are the same.
[0110] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 17 As shown, the relevant display panel has a transverse data line 48 along the first direction (X axis direction), and the transverse data line 48 affects the aperture ratio. Figure 3 、 Figure 9 As shown, the display panel has no data lines extending along the first direction (X-axis direction) between sub-pixels in two adjacent rows, which reduces the shading of the data lines and improves the aperture ratio.
[0111] In some exemplary embodiments, a display device may include the display panel described above. In some exemplary embodiments, the display device that may include the display panel of this embodiment may be a liquid crystal display device. The display device is a product with an image display function, such as a monitor, television, billboard, digital photo frame, telephone, mobile phone, digital camera, camcorder, navigation system, home appliance, or other device with a display function. The embodiments of this application do not impose any particular restrictions on the specific form of the display device described above.
[0112] In the above embodiment, the display panel of this example adopts a three-gate pixel architecture, and the data lines are connected in parallel, thereby reducing the number of chips used and replacing the existing MUX drive architecture. Compared with the dual-gate architecture, fewer chips can be used, the display panel has lower power consumption, avoids some display problems, and is suitable for harsh environments. The sub-pixels controlled by a gate line are adjacent to each other, and the polarity of the sub-pixels controlled by each data line group is the same, forming a column drive. The display panel of this example can reduce the driving power consumption of the data line group, thereby reducing the overall logic power consumption of the display panel and reducing the temperature rise of the chip. The display panel of this example can have a higher aperture ratio, which can improve the transmittance of the display panel, thereby further reducing the power consumption of the backlight. The display panel of this example can also solve the problem of monochrome vertical stripes caused by charging differences and can solve the problem of shaking head stripes. The display panel of this example uses pixel storage capacitor compensation and the design of the drain electrode adjacent to the pixel electrode to increase the distance between the drain electrode and other adjacent gate lines, thereby reducing the feedback voltage difference, solving the problem of vertical stripes caused by feedback voltage differences, and improving the performance of the display panel.
