[0090] 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 embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0091] In all embodiments of this disclosure, the transistors used can be thin-film transistors, field-effect transistors, or other devices with similar characteristics. In the embodiments of this disclosure, to distinguish the two terminals of the transistor other than the gate, one terminal is referred to as the first terminal and the other as the second terminal.
[0092] In actual operation, when the transistor is a thin-film transistor or a field-effect transistor, the first electrode can be the drain and the second electrode can be the source; or, the first electrode can be the source and the second electrode can be the drain.
[0093] The pixel circuit described in this embodiment includes a driving circuit, a compensation control circuit, an on / off control circuit, and a first reset circuit;
[0094] The compensation control circuit is electrically connected to the first scanning end, the first end of the driving circuit, and the control node, respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the first end of the driving circuit and the control node under the control of the first scanning signal provided by the first scanning end.
[0095] The on / off control circuit is electrically connected to the second scanning terminal, the control terminal of the driving circuit and the control node respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the control terminal of the driving circuit and the control node under the control of the second scanning signal provided by the second scanning terminal.
[0096] The first reset circuit is electrically connected to the first reset control terminal, the first initial voltage terminal, and the control node, respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the first initial voltage terminal and the control node under the control of the first reset control signal provided by the first reset control terminal;
[0097] The display cycle of the pixel circuit includes a refresh frame; the refresh frame includes a data writing phase and a refresh light emission phase that are set sequentially.
[0098] The refresh frame further includes at least one of a first control phase and a second control phase;
[0099] The first control phase is set between the data writing phase and the refresh emission phase, and the second control phase is set between the data writing phase and the refresh emission phase;
[0100] The first reset circuit is used to write the voltage signal provided by the first initial voltage terminal into the control node under the control of the first reset control signal during the first control phase.
[0101] The on / off control circuit is used, during the second control phase, under the control of the second scanning signal, to control the connection between the control terminal of the drive circuit and the control node.
[0102] In the pixel circuit described in this embodiment, the transistor included in the on / off control circuit can be an LTPS (Low Temperature Polycrystalline Silicon) transistor, and the transistor included in the compensation control circuit can be an oxide transistor. The LTPS transistor in the on / off control circuit isolates the gate of the driving transistor in the driving circuit from the oxide transistor in the compensation control circuit. Since the backplane process for low temperature polycrystalline silicon is relatively mature and has good process stability, the characteristics of the LTPS transistor in the on / off control circuit are relatively stable. The pixel circuit described in this embodiment includes an on / off control circuit, which can set the transistor in the on / off control circuit to turn off before the transistor in the compensation control circuit. This eliminates the influence of characteristic differences of the transistor in the compensation control circuit on the light-emitting current, removes the influence of gate potential changes in the driving transistor caused by characteristic shifts in the oxide transistor during the reliability process, and thus improves the horizontal stripe defects during the reliability process.
[0103] In related technologies, during the light-emitting stage, due to the high potential of the control node, it continuously leaks current to the first node (the first node is the node electrically connected to the control terminal of the driving circuit) within one frame, thus causing flickering.
[0104] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the refresh frame includes the second control phase; the display cycle may further include a hold frame; the hold frame may include a third control phase and a hold-light phase set sequentially.
[0105] The on / off control circuit is used in the third control phase to control the connection between the control terminal of the drive circuit and the control node under the control of the second scanning signal.
[0106] Based on the above problems, in at least one embodiment of this disclosure,
[0107] According to one specific implementation, a first control stage can be set between the data writing stage and the refresh light emission stage; in the first control stage, the first reset circuit, under the control of the first reset control signal, writes the voltage signal provided by the first initial voltage terminal into the control node to pull down the potential of the control node, reduce the leakage current from the control node to the first node, which is conducive to maintaining the potential of the first node and improving the flickering phenomenon.
[0108] According to another specific embodiment, a second control stage can be set between the data writing stage and the refresh light emission stage; a third control stage can be set within the holding frame and before the holding light emission stage; in the second control stage included in the refresh frame and the third control stage included in the holding frame, the on / off control circuit controls the connection between the control terminal of the driving circuit and the control node under the control of the second scan signal, so that the leakage current between the control node and the first node is consistent in the refresh light emission stage and the holding light emission stage, thereby improving the flickering phenomenon.
[0109] As shown in FIG1, the pixel circuit described in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure may include a driving circuit 10, a compensation control circuit 11, an on / off control circuit 12, and a first reset circuit 13.
[0110] The compensation control circuit 11 is electrically connected to the first scanning terminal GN, the first terminal of the driving circuit 10, and the control node NC, respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the first terminal of the driving circuit 10 and the control node NC under the control of the first scanning signal provided by the first scanning terminal GN.
[0111] The on / off control circuit 12 is electrically connected to the second scanning end GP, the control end of the driving circuit 10 and the control node NC respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the control end of the driving circuit 10 and the control node NC under the control of the second scanning signal provided by the second scanning end GP.
[0112] The first reset circuit 13 is electrically connected to the first reset control terminal RN, the first initial voltage terminal I1 and the control node NC respectively, and is used to control the connection or disconnection between the first initial voltage terminal I1 and the control node NC under the control of the first reset control signal provided by the first reset control terminal RN.
[0113] The first node N1 is electrically connected to the control terminal of the drive circuit 10.
[0114] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the refresh frame includes the first control phase; the refresh frame also includes a first reset phase set before the data writing phase;
[0115] The first initial voltage terminal is used to provide a first initial voltage during the first reset phase and a second first initial voltage during the first control phase.
[0116] The first reset circuit is used to write a first initial voltage into the control node under the control of a first reset control signal during the first reset phase, and to write a second initial voltage into the control node under the control of a first reset control signal during the first control phase.
[0117] The first initial voltage is different from the second initial voltage.
[0118] In specific implementation, when the refresh frame includes a first control phase, a first reset phase can be set within the refresh frame before the data writing phase. In the first reset phase, the first initial voltage terminal provides a first initial voltage, and in the first control phase, the first initial voltage terminal provides a second first initial voltage. The voltage values of the first and second first initial voltages are not equal. In the first reset phase, under the control of the first reset control signal, the first reset circuit writes the first initial voltage to the control node. In the first control phase, under the control of the first reset control signal, the first reset circuit writes the second initial voltage to the control node, so that during the refresh and light-emitting phase, the potential of the control node is not much different from the potential of the first node, reducing leakage current from the control node to the first node and improving flickering. Under this premise, in the first reset phase, when the on / off control circuit controls the connection between the control terminal of the driving circuit and the control node under the control of the second scan signal, the first initial voltage can be written to the first node, so that the driving transistors included in the driving circuit can be fully turned on at the start of the data writing phase.
[0119] Optionally, the driving circuit includes a p-type transistor as the driving transistor;
[0120] The voltage value of the first initial voltage is less than the voltage value of the second initial voltage.
[0121] In a specific implementation, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the voltage value of the first initial voltage can be less than the voltage value of the second initial voltage.
[0122] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the refresh frame includes the first control phase; the first reset circuit includes a first transistor; the gate of the first transistor is electrically connected to the first reset control terminal, the first electrode of the first transistor is electrically connected to the first initial voltage terminal, and the second electrode of the first transistor is electrically connected to the control node.
[0123] During the first control phase, the first transistor is not fully turned on under the control of the first reset control signal.
[0124] In practical implementation, the potential of the first reset control signal can be adjusted in the first control stage so that the first transistor is not fully turned on, thereby reducing the pull-down of the NC potential and achieving a balance between the NC potential and the N1 potential as much as possible. This reduces the leakage current from NC to N1 and helps to improve the flickering phenomenon.
[0125] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the refresh frame further includes a first reset phase set prior to the data writing phase;
[0126] During the first reset phase, the first transistor is fully turned on under the control of the first reset control signal.
[0127] In practice, during the first reset phase, the first transistor can be fully turned on by adjusting the potential of the first reset control signal, so as to facilitate the reset of the control node's potential.
[0128] Optionally, the first transistor is an n-type transistor; during the first reset phase, the potential of the first reset control signal is greater than the potential of the first reset control signal during the first control phase; or, the first transistor is a p-type transistor; during the first reset phase, the potential of the first reset control signal is less than the potential of the first reset control signal during the first control phase.
[0129] In specific implementation, when the first transistor is an n-type transistor or an oxide transistor, during the first reset phase, the potential of the first reset control signal can be greater than the potential of the first reset control signal during the first control phase, so as to control the first transistor to be fully turned on during the first reset phase and not fully turned on during the first control phase.
[0130] In specific implementation, when the first transistor is a p-type transistor or an LTPS (low-temperature polysilicon) transistor, during the first reset phase, the potential of the first reset control signal can be lower than the potential of the first reset control signal during the first control phase, so as to control the first transistor to be fully turned on during the first reset phase and not fully turned on during the first control phase.
[0131] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the refresh frame includes the first control phase; the display cycle further includes a hold frame, and the hold frame further includes a fourth control phase and a hold-light phase set sequentially.
[0132] The first reset circuit is also used in the fourth control phase to write the voltage signal provided by the first initial voltage terminal into the control node under the control of the first reset control signal.
[0133] In specific implementation, when the refresh frame includes a first control stage, a fourth control stage can be set in the holding frame before the holding light-emitting stage. In the fourth control stage, the first reset circuit, under the control of the first reset control signal, writes the voltage signal provided by the first initial voltage terminal into the control node so that the potential of the control node remains consistent during the refresh light-emitting stage and the holding light-emitting stage, so that the leakage current between the control node and the first node is consistent, which helps to improve the flickering phenomenon.
[0134] As shown in Figure 2, based on at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown in Figure 1, the pixel circuit of at least one embodiment of this disclosure further includes a light-emitting element E1 and a second reset circuit 21.
[0135] The second reset circuit 21 is electrically connected to the second reset control terminal RP, the first electrode of the light-emitting element E1, and the second initial voltage terminal I2, respectively. It is used to control the connection or disconnection between the first electrode of the light-emitting element E1 and the second initial voltage terminal I2 under the control of the second reset control signal provided by the second reset control terminal RP.
[0136] The refresh frame further includes a fifth control phase disposed between the data writing phase and the refresh illumination phase; the hold frame further includes a sixth control phase disposed before the hold illumination phase;
[0137] The second reset circuit 21 is used, under the control of the second reset control signal in the fifth control phase and the sixth control phase, to write the second initial voltage provided by the second initial voltage terminal I2 into the first pole of the light-emitting element E1.
[0138] In specific implementation, a fifth control stage can be set between the data writing stage and the refresh light emission stage within the refresh frame, and a sixth control stage can be set before the hold light emission stage within the hold frame. In the fifth control stage and the sixth control stage, under the control of the second reset control signal, the second reset circuit 21 writes the second initial voltage provided by the second initial voltage terminal I2 into the first electrode of the light emission element E1 to reset the potential of the first electrode of the light emission element E1, which helps to clear the residual charge of the first electrode of the light emission element E1.

[0140] The driving circuit further includes a second reset circuit; the refresh frame further includes a fifth control phase disposed between the data writing phase and the refresh light emission phase; the holding frame further includes a sixth control phase disposed before the holding light emission phase;
[0141] The second reset circuit is electrically connected to the second reset control terminal, the first electrode of the light-emitting element, and the second initial voltage terminal, respectively, and is used to write the second initial voltage provided by the second initial voltage terminal into the first electrode of the light-emitting element under the control of the second reset control signal during the fifth control stage and the sixth control stage.
[0142] In specific implementation, when the refresh frame further includes the second control stage and the holding frame further includes the third control stage, a fifth control stage can be set between the data writing stage and the refresh light emission stage in the refresh frame, and a sixth control stage can be set before the holding light emission stage in the holding frame. In the fifth control stage and the sixth control stage, under the control of the second reset control signal, the second reset circuit writes the second initial voltage provided by the second initial voltage terminal into the first electrode of the light emission element to reset the potential of the first electrode of the light emission element, which helps to clear the residual charge of the first electrode of the light emission element.

[0189] In S14, EM provides a high voltage signal, GN provides a high voltage signal, GP provides a low voltage signal, RN provides a low voltage signal, RP provides a high voltage signal, T4 is turned on, T2 is turned on, T9 is turned on, N1 and N3 are connected, DL provides data voltage Vdata to N2, and Vdata is stored in Cst;
[0190] At the start of S14, T3 is turned on and charges Cst through Vdata to change the potential of N1 until the potential of N1 becomes Vdata+Vth. Then T3 is turned off to perform data voltage writing and threshold voltage compensation, where Vth is the threshold voltage of T3.
[0191] In S15, EM provides a high voltage signal, GN provides a low voltage signal, GP provides a high voltage signal, RN provides a high voltage signal, RP provides a high voltage signal, T1 is turned on, and Vinit1 is written to NC to lower the potential of NC before the refresh light emission stage S17, so that the potential of N1 is not much different from the potential of NC during the refresh light emission stage S17, thereby reducing the leakage current from NC to N1 and improving the flickering phenomenon.
[0192] In S16, EM provides a high voltage signal, GN provides a low voltage signal, GP provides a high voltage signal, RN provides a low voltage signal, RP provides a low voltage signal, T8 is turned on, and I3 writes the third initial voltage Vinit3 into N2 to improve the hysteresis of T3; T7 is turned on, and I2 writes the second initial voltage Vinit2 into the anode of O1 to clear the residual charge on the anode of O1.
[0193] In S17, EM provides a low voltage signal, GN provides a low voltage signal, GP provides a high voltage signal, RN provides a low voltage signal, RP provides a high voltage signal, T5 and T6 are turned on, and T3 drives O1 to emit light; in S17, the light-emitting current Io1 of O1 is equal to K×(Vdd-Vdata)2; K is a current coefficient related to the process and design, and Vdd is the voltage value of the power supply voltage signal provided by the power supply voltage terminal VDD.
[0194] In S26, EM provides a high voltage signal, GN provides a low voltage signal, GP provides a high voltage signal, RN provides a low voltage signal, RP provides a low voltage signal, T8 is turned on, and I3 writes the third initial voltage Vinit3 into N2 to improve the hysteresis of T3; T7 is turned on, and I2 writes the second initial voltage Vinit2 into the anode of O1 to clear the residual charge on the anode of O1.

[0196] As shown in Figure 6, during the refresh frame, in S12, GP provides a low voltage signal, T4 and T9 are turned on, and the initial voltage Vinit1 provided by I1 resets the potential of N1 through T1 and T9. When GP provides a high voltage signal, T4 and T9 are turned off. T9, as an LTPS transistor, is affected by the potential of N1 and the gate bias before the first turn-on. The gate bias is fixed, but the potential of N1 is related to the data voltage of the previous refresh frame. Therefore, the characteristics of T9 are still affected by the previous refresh frame. During the refresh frame, after T9 is turned on for the first time, the potential of N1 is reset to Vinit1. Regardless of whether the gate voltage of T9 is high or low, the voltage of N1 is still affected by the previous refresh frame. The voltage level is relatively fixed, whether it is high or low. After the first on and off, the influence of the previous refresh frame data voltage on the characteristics of T9 can be eliminated. When T9 is turned on for the second time, the potential of N1 is reset to Vinit1 again. The two consecutive reset actions can better eliminate the influence of the previous refresh frame data voltage on the characteristics of T9, thereby improving image retention and low grayscale image quality. In addition, in S12, the potential of N1 is reset to Vinit1. Since T2 is off, the potential of N2 remains Vinit3. The gate-source voltage of T3 is Vinit1-Vint3. The characteristics of T3 are also reset, thereby improving image retention.
[0197] In at least one embodiment shown in Figure 6, S15 and S16 can be interchanged, that is, S16 can be set between S14 and S15; or, S15 and S16 can be the same time period. In at least one embodiment shown in Figure 6, the conduction phase can include a first third phase S13 and a data writing phase S14;
[0198] Before the refresh light emission stage S17, T9 is cut off before T2, which eliminates the influence of the characteristic difference of the second transistor on the light emission current in the circuit, removes the influence of the gate potential change of the driving transistor caused by the characteristic offset of the oxide transistor during the reliability process, and thus improves the horizontal stripe defect in the reliability process.
[0199] As shown in the brightness waveform curve in Figure 7, when the working timing shown in Figure 6 is used, the leakage direction of N1 is reversed, and N1 leaks current to NC, so that the brightness gradually increases.

[0207] At the start of S14, T3 is turned on and charges Cst through Vdata to change the potential of N1 until the potential of N1 becomes Vdata+Vth. Then T3 is turned off to perform data voltage writing and threshold voltage compensation, where Vth is the threshold voltage of T3.
[0208] In S15, EM provides a high voltage signal, GN provides a low voltage signal, GP provides a high voltage signal, RN provides a high voltage signal, RP provides a high voltage signal, T1 is turned on, and I1 writes the second first initial voltage Vinit21 into NC to pull down the potential of NC before the refresh light emission stage S17, so that the potential of N1 is not much different from the potential of NC during the refresh light emission stage S17, reducing the leakage current from NC to N1 and helping to improve the flickering phenomenon; the voltage value of the second first initial voltage Vinit21 is -0.5V;

In the first reset phase S12, I1 provides the first initial voltage Vinit11 to NC, and the voltage value of the first initial voltage Vinit11 can be -3V. In the first control phase S15, I1 writes the second initial voltage Vinit21 into NC, and the voltage value of the second initial voltage Vinit21 is -0.5V, so that during the refresh light emission phase, the potential of the control node NC is not much different from the potential of the first node N1, reducing the leakage current of the control node NC to the first node N1 and helping to improve the flickering phenomenon. Under this premise, in the first reset phase S12, when T9 is turned on and the control node N1 is connected to the control node NC, the first initial voltage Vinit11 can be written into the first node N1, so that the driving transistor T3 can be fully turned on at the beginning of the data writing phase.

[0229] In S15, the voltage value of the first reset control signal provided by RN can be adjusted so that T1 is not fully turned on, thereby reducing the force of pulling down the potential of NC and achieving a balance between the potential of NC and the potential of N1 as much as possible.
