Under the control of a signal received by the input end (IN) and a clock signal received by a first clock signal end (CK1), the second input module (102) transmits a second level to a second node (N2). In response to the level of one of the first node (N1) and the second node (N2), the interlocking module (103) controls the level of the other one of said two nodes. In response to the first level of the first node (N1), the first output module (104) transmits to an output end (OUT) the level of a clock signal received by a second clock signal end (CK2). In response to the second level of the second node (N2), the second output module (105) transmits to the output end (OUT) the level of a power supply signal received by a first power supply signal end (VGH). Thus, reliable and stable output of scanning signals is achieved.

The first level may be the on-level of the first output module 104, and the fourth level may be the off-level of the first output module 104.

[0043] The second output module 105 is electrically connected to the second node N2, the first power signal terminal VGH, and the output terminal OUT. The second output module 105 is configured to transmit the power level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT in response to a second level of the second node N2. Optionally, the second output module 105 is turned on in response to the second level of the second node N2, transmitting the power level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG2 , FIG2 is a schematic structural diagram of various modules of a shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. Optionally, a first input module 101 is electrically connected to the input terminal IN and the first node N1, and a first end of the first input module 101 is electrically connected to the input terminal IN.

[0052] The first input unit 1020 is turned on when the level of the signal input to the input terminal IN is at a first level. The first input unit 1020 transmits the level of the power signal input to the first power signal terminal VGH or the level of the clock signal input to the second clock signal terminal CK2 (this level is the off level of the second input unit 1021 and is logically opposite to the second level) to the second input unit 1021 via the second terminal of the first input unit 1020, thereby turning off the second input unit 1021. The first input unit 1020 is turned off when the level of the signal input to the input terminal IN is at a level that is logically opposite to the first level, and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal input to the first power signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the second input unit 1021. The second input unit 1021 is turned on when the level of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is at a second level (which may be the on level of the second input unit 1021), and transmits the second level of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2.

The second regulating unit 1031 is responsive to at least the second level of the second node N2 and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the first node N1 as a fourth level.

[0056] The first regulating unit 1030 is turned on in response to at least a first level at the first node N1, and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the third level to the second node N2. The first regulating unit 1030 is turned off in response to at least a fourth level at the first node N1, and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the third level to the second node N2. The first level may be a turn-on level of the first regulating unit 1030, and the fourth level may be a turn-off level of the first regulating unit 1030.

[0057] The second regulating unit 1031 is turned on in response to at least the second level of the second node N2, and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the fourth level to the first node N1. The second regulating unit 1031 is turned off in response to at least the third level of the second node N2, and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the fourth level to the first node N1.

[0064] FIG2 illustrates the example of the first transistor T1 to the seventh transistor T7 being PMOS transistors. The present application is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first transistor T1 to the seventh transistor T7 may also be NMOS transistors. Optionally, some of the first transistor T1 to the seventh transistor T7 may be NMOS transistors, and the rest may be PMOS transistors. The difference between an NMOS transistor and a PMOS transistor is that a PMOS transistor is turned on when the gate is at a low level and turned off when the gate is at a high level, while an NMOS transistor is turned on when the gate is at a high level and turned off when the gate is at a low level.

[0065] The working phases of the shift register within one frame of display image include a first phase t1, a second phase t2, a third phase t3 and a fourth phase t4.

[0066] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3, Figure 3 is a timing diagram of the shift register shown in Figure 2. In the first stage t1, the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is the second level (such as a low level), the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 is a level logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), and the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is the first level (such as a low level).

[0067] In the first stage t1, the first input module 101 is turned on under the control of the first level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN, and transmits the first level to the first node N1. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the signal connected to the input terminal IN and the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The interlock module 103 transmits a third level that is logically opposite to the second level to the second node N2 in response to at least the first level of the first node N1. The first output module 104 transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT in response to the first level of the first node N1. The second output module 105 is turned off in response to the third level of the second node N2, and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0068] As shown in FIG2 , when the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is at a first level (e.g., a low level), the first input module 101 (e.g., the first transistor T1) is turned on, and the first input unit 1020 (e.g., the second transistor T2) is turned on. The turned-on first input module 101 (e.g., the first transistor T1) transmits the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN at the first level (e.g., a low level) to the first node N1. The turned-on first input unit 1020 (e.g., the second transistor T2) transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2 (a level logically opposite to the second level, e.g., a high level) to the second terminal of the first input unit 1020. After the second input unit 1021 (e.g., the gate of the third transistor T3) receives the level of the second terminal of the first input unit 1020 (e.g., a high level), the second input unit 1021 (e.g., the third transistor T3) is turned off, stopping the transmission of the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2.

[0069] The first regulating unit 1030 (e.g., the fourth transistor T4) is turned on in response to the first level (e.g., a low level) of the first node N1, and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (e.g., a high level) as the third level to the second node N2, causing the second output module 105 (e.g., the seventh transistor T7) to be turned off in response to the third level (e.g., a high level) of the second node N2, and stop transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT. The second regulating unit 1031 (e.g., the fifth transistor T5) is turned off in response to the third level (e.g., a high level) of the second node N2, and stop transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the fourth level to the first node N1, so that the first node N1 remains at the first level (e.g., a low level). This causes the first output module 104 (e.g., the sixth transistor T6) to be turned on in response to the first level (e.g., a low level) of the first node N1, and transmit the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT.

[0070] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3, in the second stage t2, the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), and the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 changes from a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level) to a second level (such as a low level), and then from the second level (such as a low level) to a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), and the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level that is logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level).

[0071] In the second stage t2, the first input module 101 stops transmitting the level to the first node N1 under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the signal connected to the input terminal IN and the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The interlock module 103 transmits a third level logically opposite to the second level to the second node N2 in response to at least the first level of the first node N1. The levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged. The first output module 104 transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT in response to the first level of the first node N1. The second output module 105 is turned off in response to the third level of the second node N2 and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0072] As shown in Figure 2, when the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is controlled to be a level logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level), the first input module 101 (such as the first transistor T1) is turned off and stops transmitting the level to the first node N1, the first input unit 1020 (such as the second transistor T2) is turned off and stops transmitting the third level (such as a high level) of the clock signal connected to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the second end of the first input unit 1020, the level of the second end of the first input unit 1020 (such as the gate of the third transistor T3) remains unchanged, and the second input unit 1021 (such as the third transistor T3) remains turned off and continues to stop transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2. The first regulating unit 1030 (such as the fourth transistor T4) remains turned on and continuously transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (such as a high level) as the third level to the second node N2. The second regulating unit 1031 (such as the fifth transistor T5) remains turned off, so that the levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged, so that the second output module 105 (such as the seventh transistor T7) remains turned off and continuously stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT, so that the first output module 104 (such as the sixth transistor T6) remains turned on and continuously transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT.

[0073] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3, in the third stage t3, the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is the second level (such as a low level), the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 is a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), and the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level that is logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level).

[0074] In the third stage t3, the first input module 101 stops transmitting the level to the first node N1 under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level. The second input module 102 transmits the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the signal connected to the input terminal IN and the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The interlock module 103 transmits the fourth level logically opposite to the first level to the first node N1 in response to at least the second level of the second node N2. The first output module 104 is turned off in response to the fourth level of the first node N1 and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module 105 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT in response to the second level of the second node N2.

[0075] As shown in Figure 2, under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level), the first input module 101 (such as the first transistor T1) is turned off and stops transmitting the level to the first node N1. The first input unit 1020 (such as the second transistor T2) is turned off and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2 (such as a high level) to the second end of the first input unit 1020. After the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 changes from a level logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level) to a second level (such as a low level), under the action of the first capacitor C1, the level of the second end of the first input unit 1020 (such as the gate of the third transistor T3) is pulled down, so that the second input unit 1021 (such as the third transistor T3) is turned on, and the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 (which may be the second level, such as a low level at this time) is transmitted to the second node N2. After the level of the second end of the first input unit 1020 (such as the gate of the third transistor T3) is pulled low, the second input unit 1021 (such as the third transistor T3) can be turned on or not fully turned on, as long as the second level (such as a low level) of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 can be transmitted to the second node N2.

[0076] The second regulating unit 1031 (e.g., the fifth transistor T5) is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the second node N2, and transmits the high level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the fourth level to the first node N1, causing the first output module 104 (e.g., the sixth transistor T6) to be turned off in response to the fourth level (e.g., a high level) of the first node N1, and to stop transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The first regulating unit 1030 (e.g., the fourth transistor T4) is turned off in response to the fourth level (e.g., a high level) of the first node N1, and to stop transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the third level to the second node N2, causing the second output module 105 (e.g., the seventh transistor T7) to be turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the second node N2, and to transmit the high level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0077] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3, in the fourth stage t4, the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 changes from a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level) to a second level (such as a low level), and then from the second level (such as a low level) to a level that is logically opposite to the second level (such as a high level), and the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level that is logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level).

[0078] In the fourth stage t4, the first input module 101 stops transmitting the level to the first node N1 under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the clock signal connected to the input terminal IN and the first clock signal terminal CK1. The levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged. The interlocking module 103 continues to transmit the fourth level logically opposite to the first level to the first node N1 in response to at least the second level of the second node N2. The first output module 104 is turned off in response to the fourth level of the first node N1 and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT in response to the second level of the second node N2.

[0079] As shown in Figure 2, when the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is controlled to be a level logically opposite to the first level (such as a high level), the first input module 101 (such as the first transistor T1) is turned off, and the first node N1 stops transmitting the level. The first input unit 1020 (such as the second transistor T2) is turned off, and the third level (such as a high level) of the clock signal connected to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2 is stopped from being transmitted to the second end of the first input unit 1020. After the first clock signal terminal CK1 changes from the second level (such as a low level) to the third level (such as a high level), under the action of the first capacitor C1, the level of the second end of the first input unit 1020 (such as the gate of the third transistor T3) is pulled high, so that the second input unit 1021 (such as the third transistor T3) is turned off and stops transmitting the level to the second node N2. The second regulating unit 1031 (such as the fifth transistor T5) remains turned on and continuously transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (such as a high level) as the fourth level to the first node N1. The first regulating unit 1030 (such as the fourth transistor T4) remains turned off and continuously stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH as the third level to the second node N2, so that the levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged, so that the first output module 104 (such as the sixth transistor T6) remains turned off and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT, so that the second output module 105 (such as the seventh transistor T7) remains turned on and continuously transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (such as a high level) to the output terminal OUT.

[0080] After the fourth stage t4, the shift register repeats the process of the third stage t3 and the fourth stage t4 alternately until the input terminal IN inputs the first level (such as low level) again and enters the first stage t1 again.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG4 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, the first input module 101 may also be electrically connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the first clock signal terminal CK1. For example, the first terminal of the first input module 101 is electrically connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the first clock signal terminal CK1. The first input module 101 is configured to transmit, under the control of a signal input to the input terminal IN, the level of the power signal input to the second power signal terminal VGL or the second level of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1 as a first level to the first node N1.

[0082] Under the control of the first level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN, the first input module 101 is turned on and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 as the first level to the first node N1. Under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level that is logically opposite to the first level, the first input module 101 is turned off and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the first node N1.

[0083] Optionally, the gate of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the input terminal IN, the first electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the first clock signal terminal CK1, and the second electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first node N1. Compared with the structure shown in FIG4 , the gate and first electrode of the first transistor T1 in FIG2 share a signal, which can reduce the control signal of the first input module 101.

[0084] When the first level of the first node N1 is a low level, the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 are low levels; when the first level of the first node N1 is a high level, the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 are high levels.

[0085] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 5, Figure 5 is a structural diagram of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. The shift register may further include a protection module 106, which is connected between the first node N1 and the first output module 104. The protection module 106 is used to transmit the first level of the first node N1 to the first output module 104 under the control of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL.

[0086] The level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL may be the on-level of the protection module 106. The protection module 106 may remain on under the control of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL. Optionally, one of the levels of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH and the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL is a high level, and the other is a low level. Optionally, the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH is a high level, and the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL is a low level.

[0087] In some optional examples, as shown in Figure 6, Figure 6 is a structural diagram of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, the protection module 106 includes an eighth transistor T8, the first electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is electrically connected to the first node N1, the gate of the eighth transistor T8 is electrically connected to the second power supply signal terminal VGL, and the second electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is electrically connected to the first output module 104 (such as the gate of the sixth transistor T6).

[0088] Since there is a second capacitor C2 between the gate and the first electrode of the sixth transistor T6, the gate voltage of the sixth transistor T6 is low. The gate of the sixth transistor T6 is electrically connected to the first node N1 through the eighth transistor T8, which can prevent the high level of the first node N1 from damaging the sixth transistor T6.

[0089] Optionally, the interlock module 103 is further electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. In response to the first level of the first node N1 and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the interlock module 103 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 as a third level to the second node N2. In response to the second level of the second node N2 and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the interlock module 103 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 as a fourth level to the first node N1.

[0090] Optionally, the first regulating unit 1030 is further electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. In response to the first level of the first node N1 and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the first regulating unit 1030 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 as the third level to the second node N2. The second regulating unit 1031 is further electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1. In response to the second level of the second node N2 and the second level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the second regulating unit 1031 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 as the fourth level to the first node N1. Connecting the first regulating unit 1030 and the second regulating unit 1031 to the first power signal terminal VGH provides more reliable operation than connecting them to the second clock signal terminal CK2.

[0091] Of course, the present application is not limited to this. In other embodiments, as shown in Figure 7, Figure 7 is a structural diagram of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, the first adjustment unit 1030 also includes a ninth transistor T9, and / or the second adjustment unit 1031 also includes a tenth transistor T10.

[0092] Optionally, the gate of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the first electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the second node N2, and the second electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the second electrode of the fourth transistor T4. Optionally, the first electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is electrically connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2.

[0093] 7 , the gate of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the first electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the first node N1, and the second electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the second electrode of the fifth transistor T5. Optionally, the first electrode of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2.

[0094] In other embodiments, as shown in Figure 8, Figure 8 is a structural diagram of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application. Optionally, the gate of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the first electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2, and the second electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the fourth transistor T4.

[0095] Optionally, the gate of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1, the first electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the first power signal terminal VGH or the second clock signal terminal CK2, and the second electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the fifth transistor T5.

[0096] In the first phase t1, the first regulating unit 1030 is turned on in response to the first level (e.g., a low level) of the first node N1 and the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1. For example, the fourth transistor T4 is turned on in response to the first level (e.g., a low level) of the first node N1, and the ninth transistor T9 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The power supply signal input to the first power supply signal terminal VGH or the clock signal input to the second clock signal terminal CK2 (which may be a high level in this case) is transmitted as the third level to the second node N2. The second regulating unit 1031 is turned off in response to the third level (e.g., a high level) of the second node N2. For example, the fifth transistor T5 is turned off in response to the third level (e.g., a high level) of the second node N2. Although the tenth transistor T10 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1, this does not affect the off state of the second regulating unit 1031.

[0097] In the second stage t2, the first regulating unit 1030 (such as the ninth transistor T9) is turned off in response to the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 being a level logically opposite to the second level, and the second regulating unit 1031 (such as the fifth transistor T5 and the tenth transistor T10) is turned off, so that the levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged.

[0098] In the third phase t3, the second regulating unit 1031 is turned on. For example, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the second node N2. The tenth transistor T10 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The tenth transistor T10 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1. The power signal input to the first power signal terminal VGH or the clock signal input to the second clock signal terminal CK2 (which may be a high level in this case) is transmitted as the fourth level to the first node N1. The first regulating unit 1030 is turned off. For example, the fourth transistor T4 is turned off in response to the fourth level (e.g., a high level) of the first node N1. Although the ninth transistor T9 is turned on in response to the second level (e.g., a low level) of the clock signal input to the first clock signal terminal CK1, this does not affect the off state of the first regulating unit 1030.

[0099] In the fourth phase t4, the first regulating unit 1030 is turned off, for example, the fourth transistor T4 and the ninth transistor T9 are turned off, and the second regulating unit 1031 is turned off, for example, the tenth transistor T10 is turned off, so that the levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged. The fifth transistor T5 is turned on, but this does not affect the off state of the second regulating unit 1031.

[0100] Based on this, the interlocking module 103 responds to the first level of the first node N1 and the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 (which may be the second level at this time), and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (such as a high level) as the third level to the second node N2. In response to the second level of the second node N2 and the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 being the second level, the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH (such as a high level) is transmitted as the fourth level to the first node N1, thereby further improving the stability of the shift register circuit.

[0101] In the structures shown in Figures 7 and 8, the interlock module 103 is electrically connected to the first power signal terminal VGH. Compared to being electrically connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2, the interlock module 103 is more stable and will not accidentally pull the first node N1 and the second node N2 low. When the first level and the second level are low, the first adjustment unit 1030 is used to pull the first node N1 to a high level, and the second adjustment unit 1031 is used to pull the second node N2 to a high level. However, the present application is not limited to this. When the first level and the second level are high, the first adjustment unit 1030 is used to pull the first node N1 to a low level, and the second adjustment unit 1031 is used to pull the second node N2 to a low level. This will not be repeated here.

[0102] In other embodiments, as shown in FIG9 , which is a schematic structural diagram of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, the first input module 101 may further include an eleventh transistor T11, wherein a first electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the input terminal IN, a second electrode of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the first node N1, a gate of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to a first electrode of the eleventh transistor T11, a second electrode of the eleventh transistor T11 is electrically connected to the second power signal terminal VGL, and a gate of the eleventh transistor T11 is electrically connected to the input terminal IN. Of course, in other embodiments, the first electrode of the first transistor T1 may also be electrically connected to the second power signal terminal VGL or the first clock signal terminal CK1.

[0103] When the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a first level (e.g., a low level), the eleventh transistor T11 is turned on. The turned-on eleventh transistor T11 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL (e.g., a low level) to the gate of the first transistor T1, controlling the first transistor T1 to turn on, turning on the first input module 101. The turned-on first input module 101 (e.g., the first transistor T1) transmits the first level (e.g., a low level) to the first node N1. When the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level logically opposite to the first level (e.g., a high level), the eleventh transistor T11 is turned off. The turned-off eleventh transistor T11 stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the second power signal terminal VGL (e.g., a low level) to the gate of the first transistor T1. The first transistor T1 is turned off, turning off the first input module 101. The turned-off first input module 101 (e.g., the first transistor T1) transmits the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN to the first node N1.

[0104] In other embodiments, as shown in Figure 10, Figure 10 is a structural schematic diagram of each module of another shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present application, at least one transistor among the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 includes a dual-gate transistor to reduce the impact of leakage current on the transistor, thereby improving the stability of the shift register circuit.

[0105] As an optional implementation of the present disclosure, an embodiment of the present disclosure discloses a method for driving a shift register, which can be used to drive the shift register provided by any embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG11 , FIG11 is a flow chart of a method for driving a shift register disclosed in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and the driving method includes:

[0106] S101: In the first stage, the first input module transmits the first level to the first node under the control of the signal connected to the input end, the interlocking module responds to at least the first level of the first node and transmits the third level that is logically opposite to the second level to the second node, and the first output module responds to the first level of the first node and transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal end to the output end.

[0107] Among them, in the first stage t1, the first input module 101 is turned on under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being the first level, and transmits the first level to the first node N1. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being the first level. The interlock module 103 at least responds to the first level of the first node N1 and transmits the third level that is logically opposite to the second level to the second node N2. The first output module 104 responds to the first level of the first node N1 and transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module 105 is turned off in response to the third level of the second node N2 and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0108] S102: In the second stage, the levels of the first node and the second node remain unchanged, and the first output module transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal to the output terminal in response to the first level of the first node.

[0109] In the second stage t2, the first input module 101 is turned off under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level, and stops transmitting the level to the first node N1. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control of the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 being a level logically opposite to the second level. The interlock module 103 at least responds to the first level of the first node N1 and transmits the third level logically opposite to the second level to the second node N2. The levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged. The first output module 104 is turned on in response to the first level of the first node N1, and transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module 105 is turned off in response to the third level of the second node N2, and stops transmitting the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.

[0110] S103: In the third stage, the second input module transmits the second level to the second node at least under the control of the signal connected to the input end and the clock signal connected to the first clock signal end, the interlocking module transmits the fourth level that is logically opposite to the first level to the first node in response to at least the second level of the second node, and the second output module transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal end to the output end in response to the second level of the second node.

[0111] In the third stage t3, the first input module 101 is shut down under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level, and stops transmitting the level to the first node N1. The second input module 102 transmits the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 (such as the second level) to the second node N2 at least under the control of the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN being a level logically opposite to the first level and the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 being the second level. The interlock module 103 transmits the fourth level logically opposite to the first level to the first node N1 in response to at least the second level of the second node N2. The first output module 104 is shut down in response to the fourth level of the first node N1 and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module 105 transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT in response to the second level of the second node N2.

[0112] S104: In the fourth stage, the levels of the first node and the second node remain unchanged, and the second output module transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal to the output terminal in response to the second level of the second node.

[0113] In the fourth stage t4, the first input module 101 is turned off under the control that the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level logically opposite to the first level, and stops transmitting the level to the first node N1. The second input module 102 stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 to the second node N2 at least under the control that the level of the signal connected to the input terminal IN is a level logically opposite to the first level and the level of the clock signal connected to the first clock signal terminal CK1 is a level logically opposite to the second level. The levels of the first node N1 and the second node N2 remain unchanged. The interlock module 103 continues to transmit a fourth level logically opposite to the first level to the first node N1 in response to at least the second level of the second node N2. The first output module 104 is turned off in response to the fourth level of the first node N1 and stops transmitting the level of the clock signal connected to the second clock signal terminal CK2 to the output terminal OUT. The second output module is turned on in response to the second level of the second node N2, and transmits the level of the power signal connected to the first power signal terminal VGH to the output terminal OUT.
