Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a display panel and a display device. Background Art

[0002] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a TSS (Transparent Storage capacity and Shielding Layer) pixel structure is generally adopted, by adding a transparent shielding layer 2' between the data line 5' and the pixel electrode layer 1' to replace the usual shielding metal and DBS, so as to improve the transmittance and solve the problems such as crosstalk.

[0003] Based on the TSS pixel structure, the data line 5' can be placed below the pixel electrode layer 1' so that the pixel electrode layer 1' partially covers the data line 5', further reducing the distance between two adjacent sub-pixels and maximizing the ratio of the sub-pixel opening area.

[0004] The current sub-pixels include a first sub-pixel R, a second sub-pixel G and a third sub-pixel B of different colors. The sub-pixels are arranged along the extension direction of the scan line (e.g., G1, G2, G3) according to the first sub-pixel R, the second sub-pixel G and the third sub-pixel B. The sub-pixels in each column along the extension direction of the data line (e.g., D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6) have the same color. When the data line 5' is placed below the pixel electrode layer 1', the spacing L1 between two adjacent sub-pixels arranged along the extension direction of the scan line is reduced, which easily leads to the formation of an overlapping area 301' between the color resist layers 3' of two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors arranged along the extension direction of the scan line (e.g., the first sub-color resist layer 31' of the first sub-pixel R and the second sub-color resist layer 32' of the second sub-pixel G), resulting in a color mixing phenomenon in the overlapping area 301', resulting in a color shift phenomenon of the entire picture when the display panel performs pixel display.

The directional terms used in this article are used to explain and illustrate the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] In the drawings, components with the same structure are represented by the same numerical labels, and components with similar structures or functions are represented by similar numerical labels. In addition, for the convenience of understanding and description, the size and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are arbitrarily shown, and the utility model does not limit the size and thickness of each component.

[0028] The embodiment of the present application provides a display panel. The display panel of the embodiment can be applied to a 2-domain pixel structure or a 4-domain pixel structure.

[0029] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the display panel includes: a plurality of scanning lines 4 , a plurality of data lines 5 , a plurality of sub-pixels and a black light shielding layer 6 covering the scanning lines 4 .

[0030] The plurality of scanning lines 4 extend along the first direction M and are spaced apart from each other.

[0031] The plurality of data lines 5 extend along the second direction N and are spaced apart from each other. The first direction M intersects the second direction N. In this embodiment, the first direction M and the second direction N are perpendicular to each other. The data lines 5 are located on a side of the color resist layer 3 away from the transparent shielding layer 2 .

[0032] Wherein, a plurality of sub-pixels are arranged in an array. In this embodiment, the sub-pixels include a first sub-pixel R, a second sub-pixel G, and a third sub-pixel B of different colors. In other embodiments, the sub-pixels may also be other colors, which is not limited in this application.

[0033] Each sub-pixel includes a color resist layer 3, a transparent shielding layer 2 and a pixel electrode layer 1 which are stacked in sequence.

[0034] The color resist layer 3 includes a first sub-color resist layer 31, a second sub-color resist layer 32 and a third sub-color resist layer (not shown) of different colors. The first sub-pixel R includes the first sub-color resist layer 31, the second sub-pixel G includes the second sub-color resist layer 32, and the third sub-pixel B includes the third sub-color resist layer.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, any two adjacent sub-pixels in the first direction M have the same color. Therefore, any two adjacent color-resist layers 3 in the first direction M have the same color.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the sub-pixels in the second direction N are arranged in an array in the order of the first sub-pixel R, the second sub-pixel G and the third sub-pixel B. Therefore, the color resist layer 3 in the second direction N is arranged in an array in the order of the first sub-color resist layer 31, the second sub-color resist layer 32 and the third sub-color resist layer.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, an overlapping region 301 is formed between at least two adjacent color resist layers 3 of different colors in the second direction N. For example, an overlapping region 301 is formed between two adjacent first sub-color resist layers 31 and second sub-color resist layers 32 in the second direction N.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the transparent shielding layer 2 is formed between the data line 5 and the pixel electrode layer 1. The transparent shielding layer 2 overlaps with the data line 5 to shield the data electric field, and at the same time, the transmittance of the display panel can be improved.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, the pixel electrode layer 1 at least partially covers the data line 5. The middle part of the pixel electrode layer 1 covers the data line 5.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the pixel electrode layer 1 includes a trunk electrode 11 and a branch electrode 12 connected to the trunk electrode 11. The trunk electrode 11 includes a first trunk electrode 111 extending along the first direction M and a second trunk electrode 112 extending along the second direction N. The second trunk electrode 112 partially covers the data line 5. Furthermore, the central axis of the second trunk electrode 112 parallel to the second direction N coincides with the central axis of the data line 5 covered by the second trunk electrode 112 parallel to the second direction N. The data line 5 is placed below the pixel electrode layer 1, so that the pixel electrode layer 1 partially covers the data line 5, further reducing the distance between two adjacent sub-pixels. At this time, the width of the sub-pixel can also be increased, the opening area of ​​the sub-pixel can be increased, and the proportion of the opening area of ​​the sub-pixel can be maximized, which is conducive to improving the image quality.

[0041] The distance L1 between any two adjacent pixel electrode layers 1 in the first direction M is in the range of 3-15 um. In this embodiment, the distance L1 between any two adjacent pixel electrode layers 1 in the first direction M is 8.8 um.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, the black shading layer 6 covers the overlapping area 301. The black shading layer 6 is used to cover the overlapping area 301 of the scanning line 4 and the color resist layer 3 of different colors, thereby preventing the mixed color light from passing through the overlapping area 301 from being emitted, which can improve the color deviation problem and further improve the image quality while increasing the aperture ratio.

[0043] The display panel includes an array substrate and a color filter substrate arranged opposite to each other. The pixel electrode layer 1, the transparent shielding layer 2, the color resist layer 3, the scanning line 4, and the data line 5 are all arranged on the array substrate. The color resist layer 3 is on the array substrate, which is a COA (CF on array) process. In this embodiment, the black light shielding layer 6 is arranged on the color filter substrate. In other embodiments, the black light shielding layer 6 can also be arranged on the array substrate, which is not limited in this application.

[0044] The width of the black light shielding layer 6 is greater than or equal to the width of the overlapping area of ​​the color resist layers 3 of different colors. Thus, the black light shielding layer 6 can completely shield the scanning line 4 and the overlapping area 301 of the color resist layers 3 of different colors, thereby preventing mixed light from leaking out and color deviation. In this embodiment, the width of the black light shielding layer 6 is greater than the width of the overlapping area of ​​the color resist layers 3 of different colors.

[0045] An embodiment of the present application further provides a display device, which includes the display panel described in any one of the above items.

[0046] The display panel and the display device provided in the embodiments of the present application change the arrangement of sub-pixels, and arrange the overlapping area 301 of the color resist layers of two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors corresponding to the scanning line 4. The black light-shielding layer 6 on the scanning line 4 is used to shield the scanning line 4 and the overlapping area 301 of the color resist layer 3 of different colors, thereby preventing the mixed color light passing through the overlapping area 301 from being emitted, which can improve the color deviation problem and further improve the image quality while increasing the aperture ratio.

[0047] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0048] The above is a detailed introduction to a display panel and a display device provided by the present application. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present application and its core idea. At the same time, for technical personnel in this field, according to the idea of ​​the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.
