[0003] GOA (Gate Driver on Array) technology integrates the TFT (Thin Film Transistor) in the GOA drive circuit onto the array substrate, thereby eliminating the gate driver integrated circuit part originally set outside the array substrate, reducing product costs in terms of both material costs and process steps.
[0004] The GOA driving circuit usually includes multiple cascaded GOA units. The commonly used GOA unit is shown in Figure 1, which usually includes an inverting module, a reset module, a trigger module and an output module.

However, in the inverting module, when PU is set high, T6 is turned on to pull the PD node low. At this time, T5 is in the on state, which will cause a through current between Vgh and Vgl, resulting in abnormal GOA unit, and then causing abnormal display of the display panel. Technical issues

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.
[0061] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0062] Example 1
[0063] In a first aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a GOA driving circuit 100 is proposed, comprising a plurality of cascaded GOA units 110. The multi-stage GOA units 110 are respectively connected to corresponding row scan lines of an array substrate 200. The multiple row scan lines are connected to multiple rows of pixel units on the array substrate 200. The multi-stage GOA units 110 output row-on signals and row-off signals to the multiple rows of pixel units row by row, thereby realizing row scanning drive, and combined with the data signal input by the source driving circuit and the backlight source, drive the pixel units to display corresponding image information.
[0064] Among them, each level of GOA unit 110 is used to receive and correspond to the start signal STV, clock signal, row close signal, level transmission signal output by the previous level GOA unit 110, etc. to trigger the output of the level transmission signal Cn required by the next level GOA unit 110, for example, outputting the first level transmission signal Cn1, the second level transmission signal Cn2, and the third level transmission signal Cn3 in sequence, and at the same time, triggering the output of the scanning signal required by the pixel unit of this level, for example, the first scanning signal Gn1 output to the first row of pixel units, the second scanning signal Gn2 to the second row of pixel units, and the third scanning signal Gn3 to the third row of pixel units.
[0065] The clock signal may include a first clock signal CKL, a second clock signal CK, a third clock signal CKBL, and a fourth clock signal CKB, wherein the scan signal Gn and the level transfer signal Cn may be the same signal or different signals, and the specific type is not limited. Adjacent level transfer signal waveforms are the same and differ by a preset phase, and adjacent scan signal waveforms are the same and differ by a preset phase. The duration of the preset phase corresponds to the unit duration of a clock signal. For example, as shown in Figure 8, the first level transfer signal Cn1 and the second level transfer signal Cn2 differ by the unit duration of a clock signal, and the first scan signal Gn1 and the second scan signal Gn2 differ by the unit duration of a clock signal.
[0066] As shown in Figure 2, the GOA driving circuit 100 may further include an EOA circuit, which includes a plurality of EOA units, wherein the GOA unit 110 is driven by the fifth clock signal ECK1, the sixth clock signal ECK2 and the scanning signal corresponding to the GOA unit 110, and outputs a high level in the data input stage and a low level in other stages. The EOA unit outputs a low level in the data input stage and a high level in other stages, that is, in the data input stage, the EOA unit is in a cut-off state and does not output a signal. The EOA unit can be composed of an nT1C structure, such as a 4T1C, 8T1C and other structures.
[0067] In order to solve the problem of shoot-through current in the inverter circuit, in this embodiment, each GOA unit 110 includes a trigger circuit 10 , a pull-up circuit 30 , a pull-down circuit 40 and an inverter circuit 20 .
[0068] The input terminal of the trigger circuit 10 is used to input the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous-stage GOA unit 110. The control terminal of the trigger circuit 10 is used to input the first clock signal CKL. The trigger circuit 10 is triggered to turn on and output the start signal STV or the output signal by a high-level signal of the first clock signal CKL, and is triggered to turn off by a low-level signal of the first clock signal CKL.
[0069] The input end of the pull-up circuit 30 is used to input the second clock signal CK, and the output end of the pull-up circuit 30 constitutes the signal output end of the GOA unit 110. The control end of the pull-up circuit 30 is connected to the output end of the trigger circuit 10. The pull-up circuit 30 is triggered by the start signal STV or the output signal to turn on and output the second clock signal CK;
[0070] The inverter circuit 20 includes a first thin-film transistor T1 and a second thin-film transistor T2. A first terminal of the first thin-film transistor T1 is connected to a positive power supply terminal. A control terminal of the first thin-film transistor T1 and a second terminal of the second thin-film transistor T2 are used to input a first clock signal CKL. The second terminal of the first thin-film transistor T1 and the first terminal of the second thin-film transistor T2 constitute an output terminal of the inverter circuit 20. The control terminal of the second thin-film transistor T2 is connected to an output terminal of the trigger circuit 10. The first thin-film transistor T1 and the second thin-film transistor T2 are triggered to turn on by a high-level signal and to turn off by a low-level signal.
[0071] The input end of the pull-down circuit 40 is used to input the first row shutdown signal VGL1, the output end of the pull-down circuit 40 is connected to the output end of the pull-up circuit 30, and the control end of the pull-down circuit 40 is connected to the output end of the inverter circuit 20. The pull-down circuit 40 is triggered to turn on by a high-level signal.
[0072] In this embodiment, the output end of the trigger circuit 10 is set to the GPU node, the output signal of the trigger circuit 10 is GPU, the output end of the inverter circuit 20 is the GPD node, the output signal of the inverter circuit 20 is GPD, the high and low levels of the GPU node are used to control the on and off of the pull-up circuit 30, and the high and low levels of the GPD node are used to control the on and off of the pull-down circuit 40. The inverter circuit 20 is used to receive the signal of the GPU node and output the signal of the GPD node according to the corresponding level states of the first clock signal CKL, the positive power signal VDD of the positive power end, and the signal of the GPU node.
[0073] The first thin film transistor T1 and the second thin film transistor T2 are N-channel thin film transistors, and are triggered to be turned on when receiving a high level, and triggered to be turned off when receiving a low level.
[0074] Among them, when the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written into the trigger waveform, the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 may be the level transfer signal Cn-1 or the scanning signal Gn-1 output to the pixel unit. At this time, the first clock signal CKL is a high-level signal, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin-film transistor T1 are turned on, the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is output through the trigger circuit 10, the GPU node signal is high, the high-level signal is output to the pull-up circuit 30, the pull-up circuit 30 is triggered to turn on, and the second clock signal CK is output. The second clock signal CK is output as the output signal of the current level GOA unit 110 to the next level GOA unit 110 and the pixel unit of the corresponding row of the current level. At this time, the voltages at both ends of the second thin-film transistor T2 are both high, and the through current of the second thin-film transistor T2 is small.
[0075] Then, the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 are turned off, and the pull-up circuit 30 is turned off. At this time, since the first thin film transistor T1 is turned off, the second thin film transistor T2 cannot form a through current, thereby improving the working reliability of the GOA unit 110, and further improving the display reliability of the display panel 1.
[0076] When the first clock signal CKL switches to a high level again, since the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written as a low level signal, at this time, the pull-up circuit 30 is turned off, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned on, the second thin film transistor T2 is turned off, the GPD node signal is switched to the high level of the positive power supply signal VDD, the pull-down circuit 40 is turned on, and the GOA unit 110 continuously outputs the first row shutdown signal VGL1, wherein the first row shutdown signal VGL1 is a low level signal.
[0077] By adjusting the structure of the inverter circuit 20 , the through current of the inverter circuit is improved, thereby improving the operating reliability of the GOA unit 110 and the display reliability of the display panel 1 .
[0078] Furthermore, in order to restore the GOA unit 110 to its initial state before switching between different frame images, optionally, as shown in Figure 4, optionally, the GOA driving circuit 100 also includes a reset circuit 50, and the reset circuit 50 is connected to the output end of the trigger circuit 10, and is triggered by the reset control signal RST to reset each circuit of the GOA unit 110. Before the frame image is switched, the reset control signal RST resets the GOA units 110 of all levels, and the reset circuit 50 outputs a low-level signal to the pull-up circuit 30 and the inverter circuit 20. The pull-up circuit 30, the pull-down circuit 40 and the inverter circuit 20 are reset and switched to the off state, and after the reset is completed, the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is received.
[0079] The trigger circuit 10 , the pull-up circuit 30 , the pull-down circuit 40 and the reset circuit 50 may adopt corresponding thin film transistor structures, and the specific structures are not limited.
[0080] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the present application have the following beneficial effects: the above-mentioned GOA driving circuit 100 includes a plurality of cascaded GOA units 110, each GOA unit 110 includes a trigger circuit 10, an inverter circuit 20, a pull-up circuit 30 and a pull-down circuit 40, the inverter circuit 20 includes a first thin film transistor T1 and a second thin film transistor T2, when the first clock signal CKL is at a high level, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 are turned on, when the trigger circuit 10 outputs a high level, the voltages at both ends of the second thin film transistor T2 are both at a high level, the through current of the second thin film transistor T2 is small, and when the first clock signal CKL is at a low level, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned off, and the second thin film transistor T2 also cannot form a through current, thereby improving the working reliability of the GOA unit 110, and thereby improving the display reliability of the display panel 1.
[0081] Example 2
[0082] As shown in Figure 1, when the reset circuit 50 and the trigger circuit 10 adopt a single thin-film transistor structure, the thin-film transistors of the GPU node may become leakage paths. That is, when the GPU node is at a high level and the other end of the trigger circuit 10 and the reset circuit 50 is at a low level, a voltage difference occurs, resulting in leakage, causing the GPU node voltage to drop, affecting the on-off output of the pull-up circuit 30.
[0083] To solve this problem, as shown in FIG5 , optionally, the trigger circuit 10 includes a third thin film transistor T3 and a fourth thin film transistor T4 ;

[0088] The pull-down circuit 40 includes an eleventh thin film transistor T11 . The first terminal, the second terminal and the control terminal of the eleventh thin film transistor T11 respectively constitute the input terminal, the output terminal and the control terminal of the pull-down circuit 40 .
[0089] In this embodiment, the trigger circuit 10 and the reset circuit 50 are both composed of two thin film transistors connected in series. Before the frame image is switched, the reset control signal RST is switched to a high level, the fifth thin film transistor T5 and the sixth thin film transistor T6 of the reset circuit 50 are turned on, and the second row shutdown signal VGL2 is output to the GPU node. The second row shutdown signal VGL2 is a low level signal, and the low level signal is output to the pull-up circuit 30 and the inverter circuit 20. The pull-up circuit 30, the pull-down circuit 40 and the inverter circuit 20 are reset and switched to the off state. After the reset is completed, the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is received.
[0090] Then, when the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written into the trigger waveform, the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 may be the stage transfer signal Cn-1 or the scanning signal Gn-1 output to the pixel unit.

The tenth thin-film transistor T10 is triggered to turn on and outputs the second clock signal CK. The second clock signal CK is output as the output signal of the current level GOA unit 110 to the next level GOA unit 110 and the pixel unit of the corresponding row of the current level. At this time, the voltages at both ends of the second thin-film transistor T2 are both high, and the through current of the second thin-film transistor T2 is small.
[0091] Then, the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 are turned off, and the tenth thin film transistor T10 is turned off. At this time, since the first thin film transistor T1 is turned off, the second thin film transistor T2 cannot form a through current, thereby improving the working reliability of the GOA unit 110, and thereby improving the display reliability of the display panel 1.
[0092] When the first clock signal CKL switches to a high level again, since the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written to a low level signal, at this time, the tenth thin film transistor T10 is turned off, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned on, the second thin film transistor T2 is turned off, the GPD node signal is switched to a high level of the positive power supply signal VDD, the eleventh thin film transistor T11 of the pull-down circuit 40 is turned on, and the GOA unit 110 continues to output the first row shutdown signal VGL1.
[0093] Among them, the leakage path of the GPU node adopts a dual thin film transistor series structure, that is, the trigger circuit 10 and the reset circuit 50 both adopt a dual thin film transistor structure, which reduces the leakage of the GPU node and further ensures the working reliability of the GOA unit 110 and the display reliability of the display panel 1.
[0094] Example 3
[0095] As shown in Figure 1, when the output signal of the pull-up circuit 30 is used as the trigger signal of the next-stage GOA unit 110, when an abnormality occurs in the pixel unit of the array substrate 200, there is a possibility that the normal operation of the GOA unit 110 is affected, resulting in abnormal operation of the subsequent-stage GOA unit 110 and failure of the cascade drive.
[0096] To solve this problem, as shown in FIG6 , optionally, the GOA driving circuit 100 further includes:
[0097] The stage transmission circuit 60 has an input terminal for inputting a third clock signal CKBL that is in phase opposite to the first clock signal CKL. The output terminal of the stage transmission circuit 60 is connected to the input terminal of the trigger circuit 10 of the next-stage GOA unit 110. The stage transmission circuit 60 is triggered to turn on and output the third clock signal CKBL by the start signal STV or the output signal.
[0098] The bootstrap capacitor C1 is connected in parallel between the output terminal and the control terminal of the stage transmission circuit 60 .
[0099] In this embodiment, before the frame image is switched, the reset control signal RST is switched to a high level, the fifth thin film transistor T5 and the sixth thin film transistor T6 of the reset circuit 50 are turned on, and the second row shutdown signal VGL2 is output to the GPU node, and the low level signal is output to the pull-up circuit 30 and the inverter circuit 20. The pull-up circuit 30, the pull-down circuit 40 and the inverter circuit 20 are reset and switched to the off state, and after the reset is completed, the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is received.
[0100] Then, when the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written into the trigger waveform, the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 may be the level transfer signal Cn-1 of the previous level. At this time, the first clock signal CKL is a high-level signal, the third thin-film transistor T3 and the fourth thin-film transistor T4 of the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin-film transistor T1 of the inverter circuit 20 are turned on, the start signal STV or the output signal of the previous level GOA unit 110 is output through the trigger circuit 10, the GPU node signal is high, and the high-level signal is output to the tenth thin-film transistor T10 of the pull-up circuit 30 and the level transfer circuit 60. The tenth thin-film transistor T10 and the level transfer circuit 60 are triggered to turn on, and the tenth thin-film transistor T10 outputs the second clock signal CK. The second clock signal CK is output as the output signal of the current level GOA unit 110 to the pixel unit of the corresponding row of the current level. At this time, the voltages at both ends of the second thin-film transistor T2 are both high, and the through current of the second thin-film transistor T2 is small.
[0101] Then, the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 are turned off. Due to the presence of the bootstrap capacitor C1, the high level of the GPU node is stored in the bootstrap capacitor C1, and the GPU node maintains a high level. When the third clock signal CKBL switches to a high level, the potential of the GPU node is pulled up again through the coupling of the level transmission circuit 60. At this time, the level transmission circuit 60 and the pull-up circuit 30 are fully opened, and the level transmission circuit 60 outputs the level transmission signal Cn of this level to the trigger circuit 10 of the next level GOA unit 110, and the pull-up circuit 30 outputs the output signal Gn of the GOA unit 110 of this level to the pixel unit of the corresponding row. Similarly, since the first thin film transistor T1 is turned off, the second thin film transistor T2 cannot form a through current, which improves the working reliability of the GOA unit 110, and thereby improves the display reliability of the display panel 1.
[0102] When the first clock signal CKL switches to a high level again, since the start signal STV or the stage transfer signal Cn-1 of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written with a low level signal, at this time, the tenth thin film transistor T10 is turned off, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned on, the second thin film transistor T2 is turned off, the GPD node signal is switched to the high level of the positive power supply signal VDD, the eleventh thin film transistor T11 of the pull-down circuit 40 is turned on, and the GOA unit 110 continues to output the first row shutdown signal VGL1.
[0103] By using the stage transmission circuit 60 and the pull-up circuit 30 to separate the signals output by the GOA unit 110 to the next stage GOA unit 110 and the signals output to the pixel unit, the influence of the pixel unit on the signal output of the GOA unit 110 is reduced, and the working reliability of the GOA unit 110 is improved.
[0104] The level transmission circuit 60 may adopt a corresponding thin film transistor structure, as shown in FIG7 . Optionally, the level transmission circuit 60 includes a seventh thin film transistor T7 , an eighth thin film transistor T8 , and a ninth thin film transistor T9 .
[0105] The first end of the seventh thin film transistor T7 and the first end of the ninth thin film transistor T9 are connected together to form the input end of the stage transmission circuit 60. The second end of the seventh thin film transistor T7, the first end of the eighth thin film transistor T8, the control end of the ninth thin film transistor T9 and the first end of the bootstrap capacitor C1 are connected together to form the output end of the stage transmission circuit 60. The control end of the seventh thin film transistor T7, the second end of the bootstrap capacitor C1 are connected to the output end of the trigger circuit 10, the control end of the eighth thin film transistor T8 is connected to the output end of the inverter circuit 20, and the second end of the eighth thin film transistor T8 is used to input the first row shutdown signal VGL1.
[0106] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 8, when the start signal STV or the stage transfer signal Cn-1 of the previous stage GOA unit 110 is written into the trigger waveform, at this time, the first clock signal CKL is a high-level signal, the third thin film transistor T3 and the fourth thin film transistor T4 of the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 of the inverter circuit 20 are turned on, the start signal STV or the stage transfer signal Cn-1 of the previous stage GOA unit 110 is output through the trigger circuit 10, the GPU node signal is high, and the high-level signal is output to the tenth thin film transistor T10 of the pull-up circuit 30 and the seventh thin film transistor T7 and the ninth thin film transistor T9 of the stage transfer circuit 60. The tenth thin film transistor T10, the seventh thin film transistor T7 and the ninth thin film transistor T9 are triggered to be turned on, and the tenth thin film transistor T10 outputs the second clock signal CK, which is output as the output signal Gn of the current stage GOA unit 110 to the pixel unit of the corresponding row of the current stage. At this time, the voltages at both ends of the second thin film transistor T2 are both high, and the through current of the second thin film transistor T2 is small.
[0107] Then, the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, the trigger circuit 10 and the first thin film transistor T1 are turned off, and due to the existence of the bootstrap capacitor C1, the high level of the GPU node is stored in the bootstrap capacitor C1, and the GPU node maintains a high level. When the third clock signal CKBL switches to a high level, the potential of the GPU node is pulled up again through the coupling of the seventh thin film transistor T7. At this time, the seventh thin film transistor T7 and the tenth thin film transistor T10 are fully turned on, and the stage transmission circuit 60 outputs the stage transmission signal Cn of this stage to the trigger circuit 10 of the next stage GOA unit 110, and the pull-up circuit 30 outputs the output signal Gn of the GOA unit 110 of this stage to the pixel unit of the corresponding row. Since the ninth thin-film transistor T9 inputs a high-level signal, the high-level signal is output to the connection node of the third thin-film transistor T3 and the fourth thin-film transistor T4 through the ninth thin-film transistor T9, and the high-level signal is output to the connection node of the fifth thin-film transistor T5 and the sixth thin-film transistor T6 through the ninth thin-film transistor T9. Therefore, when the GPU node is at a high level, the connection node of the third thin-film transistor T3 and the fourth thin-film transistor T4 is at a high level, and the connection node of the fifth thin-film transistor T5 and the sixth thin-film transistor T6 is at a high level, thereby reducing the source-drain potential difference between the fourth thin-film transistor T4 and the fifth thin-film transistor T5, further reducing leakage, and stabilizing the high-level state of the GPU node.
[0108] Likewise, since the first thin film transistor T1 is turned off, the second thin film transistor T2 cannot generate a through current, thereby improving the operating reliability of the GOA unit 110 and further improving the display reliability of the display panel 1 .
[0109] When the first clock signal CKL switches to a high level again, since the start signal STV or the stage transmission signal Cn-1 of the previous level GOA unit 110 is written with a low level signal, at this time, the tenth thin film transistor T10 is turned off, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned on, the second thin film transistor T2 is turned off, the GPD node signal is switched to the high level of the positive power supply signal VDD, the eleventh thin film transistor T11 of the pull-down circuit 40 and the eighth thin film transistor T8 of the stage transmission circuit 60 are turned on, the pull-down circuit 40 continuously outputs the first row shutdown signal VGL1 to the pixel unit of this row, and the stage transmission circuit 60 continuously outputs the first row shutdown signal VGL1 to the trigger circuit 10 of the next level GOA unit 110.
[0110] Example 4
[0111] As shown in FIG9 , during operation, the time during which the GPD node is at a low potential is only 1 / the number of pixel rows in the display time of one frame of picture. Therefore, the gates of the thin film transistors of the pull-down circuit 40 and / or the stage transfer circuit 60 are operated under high voltage for a long time. As shown in FIG7 , the eighth thin film transistor T8 and the eleventh thin film transistor T11 are easily changed in characteristics under long-term high-voltage drive. As shown in FIG10 , the threshold turn-on voltage Vth drifts, and the GOA unit 110 has poor stability.
[0112] In order to solve the problem that the thin film transistors of the pull-down circuit 40 and / or the stage transfer circuit 60 are in a high voltage state for a long time, causing the characteristics to change, optionally, as shown in FIG11 , the pull-down circuit 40 further includes a twelfth thin film transistor T12, a thirteenth thin film transistor T13 and a coupling capacitor C2;
[0113] A first end of the coupling capacitor C2 is used to input the third clock signal CKBL. A second end of the coupling capacitor C2, the control end of the twelfth thin film transistor T12, and the first end of the thirteenth thin film transistor T13 are connected in common. The first and second ends of the twelfth thin film transistor T12 are connected in parallel to the first and second ends of the eleventh thin film transistor T11. The control end of the thirteenth thin film transistor T13 is connected to the output end of the stage transfer circuit 60. The second end of the thirteenth thin film transistor T13 is used to input the second row shut-off signal VGL2.
[0114] The stage transfer circuit 60 further includes a fourteenth thin film transistor T14 and a fifteenth thin film transistor T15;
[0115] The control end of the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 is connected to the second end of the coupling capacitor C2, the first end and the second end of the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 are connected in parallel to the first end and the second end of the eighth thin film transistor T8, the first end of the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 is connected to the output end of the inverter circuit 20, the second end of the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 is used to input the second row shut-off signal VGL2, and the control end of the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 is used to input the third clock signal CKBL.
[0116] 11 and 12 , GPDB is set as a coupling signal, which is a control signal output to the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 and the twelfth thin film transistor T12. In the first time period, RST controls the second row shutdown signal VGL2 input to reset the GOA units 110 of all levels.
[0117] In the second time period, the start signal STV or the level transfer signal Cn-1 output by the previous level GOA unit 110 is written into the trigger waveform. At this time, the first clock signal CKL is at a high level, the third thin film transistor T3 and the fourth thin film transistor T4 are turned on, and the start signal STV or the level transfer signal Cn-1 output by the previous level GOA unit 110 is written into the GPU node. At this time, the GPU controls the second thin film transistor T2 to write the first clock signal CKL into the GPD node, and sets the GPD node to a high level. Since the third clock signal CKBL is set to a low level, the GPDB is set to a low level through the coupling capacitor C2, the twelfth thin film transistor T12 and the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 are turned off, and since the third clock signal CKBL is a low level signal at this time, the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 is turned off, the eighth thin film transistor T8 is turned on, and outputs a low level signal.
[0118] In the third time period, the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, and the high level of the GPU node is stored in the bootstrap capacitor C1 and maintained until the third clock signal CKBL switches to a high potential. The potential of the GPU node is pulled high again through coupling through the seventh thin-film transistor T7. At this time, the seventh thin-film transistor T7 and the tenth thin-film transistor T10 are fully turned on, and the GOA unit 110 outputs Cn and Gn, which are the high potentials of the third clock signal CKBL and the second clock signal CK, respectively.
[0119] At this time, the third clock signal CKBL controls the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 to be turned on, the GPD node writes the second row shutdown signal VGL2, and the GPDB controls the thirteenth thin film transistor T13 to be turned on due to Cn, and writes the first row shutdown signal VGL1 to ensure that the pull-down circuit 40 has no output.
[0120] In the fourth time period, when the first clock signal CKL is switched to a high level again, the start signal STV or the level transfer signal Cn-1 output by the previous level GOA unit 110 writes a low potential to the GPU, the seventh thin film transistor T7 and the tenth thin film transistor T10 are turned off, the second thin film transistor T2 is turned off, the first thin film transistor T1 is turned on, the positive power supply signal VDD is written to the GPD node, and the eighth thin film transistor T8 and the eleventh thin film transistor T11 are controlled to be turned on, and Cn and Gn output the first row shutdown signal VGL1.
[0121] At this time, the third clock signal CKBL is at a low level, and the GPDB voltage is set to a low level through coupling by the coupling capacitor C2 , and the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 and the twelfth thin film transistor T12 are turned off.
[0122] In the fifth time period, when the first clock signal CKL switches to a low level, the third clock signal CKBL controls the fifteenth thin film transistor T15 to turn on, the low potential of the second row shutdown signal VGL2 is written to the GPD node, the eighth thin film transistor T8 and the eleventh thin film transistor T11 are turned off, and the third clock signal CKBL sets the GPDB voltage to a high level through the coupling capacitor C2, the fourteenth thin film transistor T14 and the twelfth thin film transistor T12 are turned on, and Cn and Gn output the first row shutdown signal VGL1.
[0123] Before the next frame initialization reset, the fourth time period and the fifth time period will be repeated cyclically.
[0124] That is, during the time when the stage transfer circuit 60 and the pull-down circuit 40 continuously output low-level signals, the eighth thin-film transistor T8 and the fourteenth thin-film transistor T14 are cross-connected and disconnected, and the eleventh thin-film transistor T11 and the twelfth thin-film transistor T12 are cross-connected and disconnected, and the voltages at their control terminals are switched to changing pulse signals rather than continuous high-level signals, thereby improving the characteristic drift problem of the thin-film transistors under long-term bias and improving the stability of the GOA unit 110 during long-term operation.
[0125] As shown in Figures 13 to 15, the thin film transistor includes a stacked substrate 11, a bottom gate layer 18, a buffer layer 12, an active layer 13, a gate insulating layer 14, a top gate layer 15, an interlayer insulating layer 16, a source 171 and a drain 172. As shown in Figure 13, when the top gate layer 15 is connected to a high level and the bottom gate layer 18 is connected to a low level, the top channel of the channel region of the active layer 13 is turned on, and as shown in Figure 14, when the bottom gate layer 18 is connected to a high level and the top gate layer 15 is connected to a low level, the bottom channel of the channel region of the active layer 13 is turned on, and as shown in Figure 15, when the bottom gate layer 18 and the top gate layer 15 are connected to a low level, no channel is closed.
[0126] By switching the top gate on and bottom gate on states, the thin film transistor is prevented from being in the top gate on state for a long time, and the carriers are captured by the interface defects of the active layer 13 or the gate insulating layer 14 and the internal defects of the gate insulating layer 14, causing the device drift.
[0127] At the same time, when the bottom gate is turned on, the negative voltage of the top gate will stimulate the carriers captured in the defects, thereby resetting the threshold voltage.
