The second voltage can be a negative voltage or the like. For example, in some examples, the second power supply terminal VSS can be grounded.
[0046] Several signal timing diagrams corresponding to the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG. 2a are shown in FIG. 2b. In one frame of the display time, the operation process of the pixel driving circuit has three stages: a T10 stage, a T20 stage, and a T30 stage. Here, ga1 represents the signal transmitted on the first scanning line GA1, ga2 represents the signal transmitted on the second scanning line GA2, ga3 represents the signal transmitted on the third scanning line GA3, and ga4 represents the signal transmitted on the fourth scanning line GA4. em represents the signal transmitted on the emission control line EM.
[0047] In the T10 stage, since the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 and the signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn on, the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT can be supplied to the gate of the driving transistor T1 to reset the gate of the driving transistor T1. The signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7, which is turned on, to turn on, so that the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT is provided to the first electrode of the light emitting device 0120 to reset the first electrode of the light emitting device 0120. Also, in this stage, the signal ga3 controls both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first emission control transistor T4 and the second emission control transistor T5 to turn off.
[0048] In the T20 stage, the signal ga3 turns on both the data write transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3. Further, since the signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn on, the data signal transmitted on the data line VD can charge the gate of the drive transistor T1, and as a result, the voltage of the gate of the drive transistor T1 becomes Vdata + Vth. Here, Vth represents the threshold voltage of the drive transistor T1, and Vdata represents the voltage of the data signal. Further, in this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first light emission control transistor T4 and the second light emission control transistor T5, which are turned off, to turn off.
[0049] In the T30 stage, the signal em controls both the first light emission control transistor T4 and the second light emission control transistor T5 to turn on. The turned-on first light emission control transistor T4 provides the voltage V of the first power supply terminal VDED to the first electrode of the drive transistor T1, and as a result, the voltage of the first electrode of the drive transistor T1 is V. vdd The drive transistor T1 generates a drive current according to its gate voltage Vdata + Vth and the first electrode voltage V. vdd The drive current is provided to the light emitting device 0120 through the turned-on second light emission control transistor T5 to drive the light emitting device 0120 to emit light. Further, in this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off. The signal ga3 controls both the data write transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3 to turn off. The signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn off. vdd
[0050] In some examples, another signal timing diagram corresponding to the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG. 2a is shown in FIG. 2c. In one frame of the display time, the operation process of the pixel driving circuit has three stages: a T10 stage, a T20 stage, and a T30 stage. Here, ga1 represents the signal transmitted on the first scanning line GA1, ga2 represents the signal transmitted on the second scanning line GA2, ga3 represents the signal transmitted on the third scanning line GA3, and ga4 represents the signal transmitted on the fourth scanning line GA4. em represents the signal transmitted on the emission control line EM.
[0051] In the T10 stage, the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off, and the remaining operation process can refer to the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.
[0052] In the T20 stage, the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn on, provides the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT to the first electrode of the light-emitting device 0120, and resets the first electrode of the light-emitting device 0120. The remaining operation process can refer to the above embodiment and will not be repeated here. In the T30 stage, the operation process of this stage can refer to the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.
[0053] In some examples, some other signal timing diagrams corresponding to the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG. 2a are as shown in FIG. 2d. In one frame of the display time, the operation process of the pixel driving circuit has four stages: a T10 stage, a T20 stage, a T30 stage, and a T40 stage. Here, ga1 represents the signal transmitted on the first scanning line GA1, ga2 represents the signal transmitted on the second scanning line GA2, ga3 represents the signal transmitted on the third scanning line GA3, and ga4 represents the signal transmitted on the fourth scanning line GA4. GA4. em represents the signal transmitted on the emission control line EM.
[0054] At the T10 stage, the signal ga4 turns on the second reset transistor T7 and provides the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT to the first electrode of the light-emitting device 0120 to reset the first electrode of the light-emitting device 0120. Also at this stage, the signal ga1 turns off the initialization transistor T6, and the signal ga3 turns off both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3. The signal em turns off both the first light-emitting control transistor T4 and the second light-emitting control transistor T5 that are turned off. The signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn off.
[0055] At the T20 stage, since the signal ga1 turns on the initialization transistor T6 and the signal ga2 turns on the oxide transistor T8, the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT can be supplied to the gate of the driving transistor to reset the gate of the driving transistor T1 so that the polarity can be reset. Further at this stage, the signal ga4 turns off the second reset transistor T7, and the signal ga3 turns off both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3. The signal em turns off both the first light-emitting control transistor T4 and the second light-emitting control transistor T5 that are turned off.
[0056] At the T30 stage, the signal ga3 turns on both the data write transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3. Further, since the signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn on, the data signal transmitted on the data line VD can charge the gate of the drive transistor T1, and as a result, the voltage of the gate of the drive transistor T1 becomes Vdata+Vth. Here, Vth represents the threshold voltage of the drive transistor T1, and Vdata represents the voltage of the data signal. Further, at this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first light emission control transistor T4 and the second light emission control transistor T5, which are turned off, to turn off.
[0057] At the T40 stage, the signal em controls both the first light emission control transistor T4 and the second light emission control transistor T5 to turn on. The turned-on first light emission control transistor T4 supplies the voltage V of the first power supply terminal VDED to the first electrode of the drive transistor T1, and as a result, the voltage of the first electrode of the drive transistor T1 is V. vdd is provided to the first electrode of the drive transistor T1, and as a result, the voltage of the first electrode of the drive transistor T1 is V. vdd The drive transistor T1 generates a drive current according to its gate voltage Vdata + Vth and the first electrode voltage V. vdd The drive current is provided to the light emitting device 0120 through the turned-on second light emission control transistor T5 to drive the light emitting device 0120 to emit light. Further, at this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off. The signal ga3 controls both the data write transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3 to turn off. The signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn off.
[0058] In some examples, several other signal timing diagrams corresponding to the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG. 2a are shown in FIG. 2e. In one frame of the display time, there are three stages in the operation process of the pixel driving circuit: the T10 stage, the T20 stage, and the T30 stage. Here, ga1 represents the signal transmitted on the first scanning line GA1, ga2 represents the signal transmitted on the second scanning line GA2, ga3 represents the signal transmitted on the third scanning line GA3, and ga4 represents the signal transmitted on the fourth scanning line GA4. Em represents the signal transmitted on the emission control line EM.
[0059] In the T10 stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn on, and the signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn on, so that the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT can be provided to the gate of the driving transistor. Thereby, the gate of the driving transistor T1 can be reset. Further, in this stage, the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off, and the signal ga3 controls both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first emission control transistor T4 and the second emission control transistor T5 to turn off.
[0060] In the T20 stage, the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn on, provides the signal transmitted on the initialization line VINIT to the first electrode of the light emitting device 0120, and resets the first electrode of the light emitting device 0120. Also, in this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga3 controls both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first emission control transistor T4 and the second emission control transistor T5 to turn off.
[0061] At the T30 stage, the signal ga3 turns on both the data writing transistor T2 and the threshold compensation transistor T3. Further, since the signal ga2 controls the oxide transistor T8 to turn on, the data signal transmitted on the data line VD can charge the gate of the driving transistor T1. As a result, the voltage of the gate of the driving transistor T1 becomes Vdata + Vth. Here, Vth represents the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T1, and Vdata represents the voltage of the data signal. Further, at this stage, the signal ga1 controls the initialization transistor T6 to turn off, and the signal ga4 controls the second reset transistor T7 to turn off. The signal em controls both the first light emission control transistor T4 and the second light emission control transistor T5 to turn off.
[0062] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the pixel driving circuit in the sub-pixel may not only have the structure shown in FIG. 2a, but also have a structure including other numbers of transistors. It is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0063] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the layout structure of a pixel driving circuit provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure. FIGS. 4a to 4f are schematic diagrams of various layers of a pixel driving circuit provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure. Here, in the examples shown in FIGS. 3 to 4f, the pixel driving circuit of the sub-pixel spx is taken as an example. FIGS. 3 to 4f also show the first scanning line GA1, the second scanning line GA2, the third scanning line GA3, the fourth scanning line GA4, the initialization line VINIT, the light emission control line EM, the data line VD, and the light emission control line electrically connected to the first power line portion Vdd of the pixel driving circuit 0121. Here, the first power line portion Vdd is configured to input a driving voltage (i.e., the first voltage) to the first power terminal VDD. Exemplarily, a plurality of data lines VD may be arranged along the first direction F1.
[0064] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4a, and 5a to 6, the silicon semiconductor layer 500 of the pixel driving circuit 0121 is shown. The silicon semiconductor layer 500 can be formed by patterning amorphous silicon and low temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) materials. Using the silicon semiconductor layer 500, the silicon active layers of the aforementioned driving transistor T1, data writing transistor T2, threshold compensation transistor T3, first light emission control transistor T4, second light emission control transistor T5, initialization transistor T6, and second reset transistor T7 can be fabricated. Also, each silicon active layer may include a first region, a second region, and a first channel region located between the first region and the second region. For example, FIG. 4a shows the first channel region T1-A of the driving transistor T1, the first channel region T2-A of the data writing transistor T2, the first channel region T3-A of the threshold compensation transistor T3, the first channel region T4-A of the first light emission control transistor T4, the first channel region T5-A of the second light emission control transistor T5, the first channel region T6-A of the initialization transistor T6, and the first channel region T7-A of the second reset transistor T7. It should be noted that the above-mentioned first region and second region can be regions of the silicon semiconductor layer 500 doped with n-type impurities or p-type impurities to form conductive regions. Therefore, the first region and the second region can be used as the source electrode region and drain electrode region of the silicon active layer for electrical connection.
[0065] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4a, the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 can extend substantially linearly along the second direction F2. For example, the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 is substantially parallel to the second direction F2. In the actual process, due to limitations of process conditions and the like, the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 may not be completely parallel to the second direction, and there may be some deviation. Therefore, as long as the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the above-mentioned initialization transistor T6 satisfies the substantially parallel condition with the second direction, all of these belong to the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above identity can enable parallel processing within the allowable error range.
[0066] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4a, the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 can extend substantially linearly along the second direction F2. For example, the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 is substantially parallel to the second direction F2. In the actual process, due to limitations of process conditions and the like, the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 may not be completely parallel to the second direction, and there may be some deviation. Therefore, as long as the extending direction of the silicon active layer of the above-mentioned threshold compensation transistor T3 and the second direction satisfy the substantially parallel condition, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above identity can enable parallel processing within the allowable error range.
[0067] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 5a and 5b, the first insulating layer 710 is formed on the silicon semiconductor layer 500 to protect the silicon semiconductor layer 500. As shown in FIGS. 3, 4b, and 5a to 6, the first conductive layer 100 of the pixel driving circuit 0121 is shown.

Exemplarily, the plurality of scanning lines may include, for example, a plurality of first scanning lines GA1 arranged at intervals, a plurality of second scanning lines GA2, a plurality of third scanning lines GA3, and a plurality of fourth scanning lines GA4. For example, one row of sub-pixels corresponds to one first scanning line GA1, one second scanning line GA2, one third scanning line GA3, one fourth scanning line GA4, and one emission control line EM.
[0068] For example, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 4b, the gate T2-G of the data write transistor T2 may be a first portion where the third scanning line GA3 overlaps the silicon semiconductor layer 500. The orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first channel region T3-A of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 on the base substrate 1000 have a third overlapping region, and the portion of the scanning line GA3 located in the third overlapping region is between the gate T3-G of the threshold compensation transistor T3 and the third scanning line GA3. That is, the gate T3-G of the threshold compensation transistor T3 may be a second portion where the third scanning line GA3 overlaps the silicon semiconductor layer 500. The orthographic projection of the light emission control line EM on the base substrate 1000 and the first channel region T4-A of the silicon active layer of the first light emission control transistor T4 have a fourth overlapping region, and the portion of the light emission control line EM located in the fourth overlapping region is the gate T4-G of the first light emission control transistor T4. That is, the gate T4-G of the first light emission control transistor T4 is a first portion where the light emission control line EM overlaps the silicon semiconductor layer 500. The orthographic projection of the light emission control line EM on the base substrate 1000 and the first channel region T5-A of the silicon active layer of the second light emission control transistor T5 have a fifth overlapping region, and the portion of the light emission control line EM located in the fifth overlapping region is the gate T5-G of the second light emission control transistor T5, that is, the gate T5-G of the second light emission control transistor T5 is a second portion where the light emission control line EM overlaps the silicon semiconductor layer 500.
[0069] Furthermore, the orthographic projection of the first scanning line GA1 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first channel region T6-A of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 on the base substrate 1000 have a first overlapping region. The portion of the first scanning line GA1 located in the first overlapping region is the gate T6-G of the initialization transistor T6. That is, the gate T6-G of the initialization transistor T6 is the first portion where the first scanning line GA1 overlaps with the silicon semiconductor layer 500, and the gate T7-G of the second reset transistor T7 is the first portion where the fourth scanning line GA4 overlaps with the silicon semiconductor layer 500. The first gate T8-G1 of the oxide transistor T8 is the first portion where the second scanning line GA2 overlaps with the silicon semiconductor layer 500. Also, the gate CC2a of the driving transistor T1 can be set as an electrode plate of the storage capacitor CST. It can also be said that the gate CC2a of the driving transistor T1 and one electrode plate of the storage capacitor CST are integrated. Furthermore, the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the second channel region T8-A of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 on the base substrate 1000 have a second overlapping region. And the portion of the second scanning line GA2 located in the second overlapping region is the gate of the oxide transistor T8-A.

Also, the first scanning line GA1, the second scanning line GA2, the third scanning line GA3, the emission control line EM, and the fourth scanning line GA4 are arranged along the second direction F2. Here, in the same sub-pixel, the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 is located between the orthographic projection of the first scanning line GA1 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000. On the base substrate 1000. The orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000 is located between the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the emission control line EM on the base substrate 1000.

Further, in the same sub-pixel, the orthographic projection of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 on the base substrate 1000 is located between the orthographic projections of the first scanning line GA1 and the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000. And the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 on the base substrate 1000, respectively. Of course, the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 may also overlap with the orthographic projection of the first region of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 on the base substrate 1000. It is also possible to overlap the orthographic projection of the second scanning line GA2 on the base substrate 1000 with the orthographic projection of the second region of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 on the base substrate 1000. Of course, these setting methods can be designed and determined according to the actual application requirements and are not limited herein.

The orthographic projections of both the silicon active layer and the gate of the driving transistor T1 on the base substrate 1000 are disposed between the orthographic projection of the light emission control line EM on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA2.
[0072] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4b, in the second direction F2, the orthographic projection of the gate CC2a of the driving transistor T1 on the base substrate 1000 is disposed between the orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the light emission control line EM on the base substrate 1000. And in the second direction F2, the gates T2-G of the data writing transistor T2, the gates T3-G of the threshold compensation transistor T3, the gates T6-G of the initialization transistor T6, and the first gate T8-G1 of the oxide transistor T8 are all disposed on the gate side of the driving transistor T1 away from the light emission control line EM, and the gates T7-G of the second reset transistor T7, the gates T4-G of the first light emission control transistor T4, and the gates T5-G of the second light emission control transistor T5 are all disposed on the side of the gate of the driving transistor T1 away from the first scanning line GA1.
[0073] For example, in some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4b, in the first direction F1, both the gate T2-G of the data writing transistor T2 and the gate T4-G of the first light emission control transistor T4 are disposed on the third side of the gate of the driving transistor T1. The gate T3-G of the threshold compensation transistor T3, the gate T5-G of the second light emission control transistor T5, the gate T6-G of the initialization transistor T6, and the gate T7-G of the second reset transistor T7 are all disposed on the fourth side of the gate of the driving transistor T1. Here, the third side and the fourth side of the gate of the driving transistor T1 are on the opposite side of the first direction F1 of the gate of the driving transistor T1.

Here, the oxide active layer has a third region, a fourth region, and a second channel region T8-A located between the third region and the fourth region. For example, FIG. 4c shows the second channel region T8-A of the oxide transistor T8. It should be noted that the above-mentioned third region and fourth region may be regions of the oxide semiconductor layer 600 doped with n-type impurities or p-type impurities for forming a conductive region. Therefore, the third region and the fourth region can be used as the source electrode region and the drain electrode region of the oxide active layer for electrical connection.
[0076] Exemplarily, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4c, the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 extends substantially linearly along the second direction F2. For example, the extending direction of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 is substantially parallel to the second direction F2. In an actual process, due to limitations of process conditions, etc., the extending direction of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 may not be completely parallel to the second direction, and there may be some deviation. Therefore, the extending direction of the oxide active layer of the above-mentioned oxide material transistor T8 and the second direction only need to satisfy the substantially parallel condition, and both are within the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above identity can enable parallel processing within an allowable error range.

One sub-pixel is provided with one first connection portion 310, one second connection portion 320, a third connection portion 330, and one fourth connection portion 340. For example, one column of sub-pixels corresponds to one first power line portion Vdd, and one column of sub-pixels corresponds to one data line VD. Further, in the same sub-pixel, the orthographic projection of the first power line portion Vdd on the base substrate 1000 is located between the orthographic projection of the data line VD on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the second connection portion 320 on the base substrate 1000.

[0089] At least one fifth connection through-hole 551. Exemplarily, the first connection through-holes 511, 512, 513, 514, 515, and 516 in the sub-pixel may each be provided with one, or two or more may be provided respectively.

In an actual application, the design can be determined according to the requirements of the actual application environment, and is not limited thereto.
[0092] Exemplarily, the fifth connection through-holes 551, 552, and 553 of the sub-pixel may each be provided with one, or two or more may be provided respectively. In an actual application, the design can be determined according to the requirements of the actual application environment, and is not limited thereto.
[0093] Note that the positional arrangement relationship of the transistors in each sub-pixel spx is not limited to the examples shown in FIGS. 3 to 4f, and the positions of the above transistors can be specifically set according to the actual application requirements.
[0094] It should be noted that the first direction F1 can be the row direction of the sub-pixels, and the second direction F2 can be the column direction of the sub-pixels.

[0095] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the first region T6-S of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 functions as the first electrode of the initialization transistor T6, and the second region T6-D of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 functions as the second electrode of the initialization transistor T6. The third region T8-S of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 functions as the first electrode of the oxide transistor T8, and the fourth region T8-S of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 functions as the second electrode of the oxide transistor T8. Further, in the same sub-pixel, the second region T6-D of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 is electrically connected to the third region T8-S of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8, and the fourth region T8-D of the oxide transistor T8 active layer is electrically connected to the gate of the driving transistor T1. In this way, an oxide active layer can be provided between the gate of the driving transistor and the second region T6-D of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6, and the signal flow path between the gate of the driving transistor and the second region T6-D of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 flows through the oxide active layer. Since the leakage current of a transistor using a metal oxide semiconductor material as the active layer is small, the off-state current of the oxide transistor T8 is small or can be ignored. Therefore, the influence of the leakage current on the gate voltage of the driving transistor can be reduced, and the stability of the gate voltage of the driving transistor can be improved.
[0096] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, a first region T3-S of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 functions as a first electrode of the threshold. A second region T3-D of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 functions as a second electrode of the threshold compensation transistor T3. A first region T1-S of the silicon active layer of the drive transistor T1-D functions as a first electrode of the drive transistor T1. A second region T1-D of the silicon active layer of the drive transistor T1-D functions as a second electrode of the drive transistor T1. Further, in the same sub-pixel, the second region T3-D of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 is electrically connected to a third region T8-S of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8. The first region T3-S of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 is electrically connected to the second region T1-D of the silicon active layer of the drive transistor T1-D. In this way, since an oxide active layer can be provided between the gate of the drive transistor and the second region T3~D of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3, the signal flow path between the gate of the drive transistor and the second region T3-D of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 flows through the oxide active layer. Since the leakage current of a transistor using a metal oxide semiconductor material as the active layer is small, the off-state current of the oxide transistor T8 is small or negligible. Therefore, the influence of the leakage current on the gate voltage of the drive transistor can be reduced, and the stability of the gate voltage of the drive transistor can be improved.
[0097] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4e, and 5a to 6, the first connection portion 310 may include a first sub-connection portion 311 and a second sub-connection portion 312 that are electrically connected to each other. Here, the first terminal of the first sub-connection portion 311 is electrically connected to the third region T8-S of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 through a first via hole (i.e., the third connection through hole 531). The second terminal of the first sub-connection portion 311 is electrically connected to the second region T6-D of the silicon active layer of the initialization transistor T6 through a second via hole (i.e., the first connection through hole 513). The first terminal of the second sub-connection portion 312 is electrically connected to the second region T3-D of the silicon active layer of the threshold compensation transistor T3 through a third via hole (i.e., the first connection through hole 512). The second terminal of the second sub-connection portion 312 is connected to the first sub-connection portion.
[0098] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4e, the first sub-connection portion 311 may extend in a first direction. For example, the first sub-connection portion 311 can be linearly extended along the first direction. That is, the extending direction of the first sub-connection portion 311 can be substantially parallel to the first direction F1. In the actual process, due to restrictions on process conditions and the like, the extending direction of the first sub-connection portion 311 may not be completely parallel to the first direction F1, and there may be some deviation. As long as the extending direction of the first sub-connection portion 311 and the first direction F1 satisfy the condition of being substantially parallel, they all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above identity can enable parallel processing within an allowable error range.
[0099] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4e, the second sub-connection portion 312 can extend in the second direction F2. For example, the second sub-connection portion 312 can extend linearly along the second direction F2. That is, the extending direction of the second sub-connection portion 312 can be substantially parallel to the second direction F2. In actual processes, due to restrictions such as process conditions, the extending direction of the second sub-connection portion 312 cannot be completely parallel to the second direction F2, and there may be some deviation. As long as the extending direction of the second sub-connection portion 312 and the second direction F2 satisfy the condition of being substantially parallel, both of them belong to the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above identity can enable parallel processing within an allowable error range.
[0100] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, the shape of the orthographic projection of the first connection portion 310 on the base substrate 1000 can also be substantially T-shaped. Alternatively, the third connection through-hole 531 functions as the first through-hole, the first connection through-hole 513 functions as the second via hole, and the first connection through-hole 512 functions as the third via hole. In the same sub-pixel, the first via hole, the second via hole, and the third via hole can be arranged in a substantially triangular shape. Further, in the same sub-pixel, the first via hole and the second via hole extend substantially linearly along the first direction F1. The orthographic projection of the third via hole on the straight line where the first via hole and the second via hole are arranged is near the second via hole. In actual processes, due to restrictions of process conditions or other factors, the shape of the orthographic projection of the first connection portion 310 on the base substrate 1000 is not completely T-shaped, and the first via and the second via hole do not extend completely linearly along the first direction F1, so there may be some deviation. Therefore, as long as the above method satisfies the condition of being substantially parallel, it belongs to the protection scope of the present invention. For example, the above method may be permitted within the allowable range.

Exemplarily, the second region T4-D of the silicon active layer of the first light emission control transistor T4 is electrically connected to the first region T1-S of the silicon active layer of the driving transistor T1. The first region T5-S of the silicon active layer of the second light emission control transistor T5 is electrically connected to the second region T1-D of the silicon active layer of the driving transistor T1.

Also, the orthographic projection of the first conductive portion 321 on the base substrate 1000 has a region that overlaps with the orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the fourth region T8-D of the oxide active layer of the oxide transistor T8 on the base substrate 1000, respectively. Further, the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 322 on the base substrate 1000 has a region that overlaps with the orthographic projection of the gate of the driving transistor T1 on the base substrate 1000, and the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 322 on the base substrate 1000 does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the third scanning line GA3 on the base substrate 1000.
[0104] In a specific implementation, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, in the same sub-pixel, the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 322 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first region T5-S of the second light emission control transistor T5 on the base substrate 1000 do not overlap at least partially. Exemplarily, the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 322 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first region T5-S of the second light emission control transistor T5 on the base substrate 1000 may be tangent. Also, it is possible that the orthographic projection of the first main body portion 322 on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first region T5-S of the second light emission control transistor T5 on the base substrate 1000 do not overlap. Of course, the present disclosure includes but is not limited to this.

Thereby, it is possible to prevent the signal transmitted on the data line VD from interfering with the signal of the storage conductive portion CC1a. Also, since the first power line portion Vdd transmits a fixed voltage, the orthographic projection of the storage conductive portion CC1a on the base substrate 1000 and the orthographic projection of the first power line portion Vdd on the base substrate 1000 have an overlapping region. By expanding the region of the storage conductive portion CC1a, signal interference can also be reduced.

The potentials of the second power line part 410 and the memory conductive part CC1a are the same, and both are the potential of the first power supply line part Vdd. Also, the gate CC2a of the driving transistor T1 is electrically connected to the second connection part 320 to form the second electrode of the memory capacitor CST, so the potential of the gate CC2a of the driving transistor T1 and the potential of the second connection part 320 are the same.
