Description

Pixel array and display panel Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of display devices, and in particular to a pixel array and a display panel. Background Art

[0002] Currently, Color Filter on Encapsulation (COE) technology has been widely used in the mobile phone market due to its excellent transmittance and low power consumption.

[0003] However, due to its special matrix structure, the reflection of ambient light on the COE screen produces a unique phenomenon, namely color separation, which can reduce the ambient contrast of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays.

[0004] Currently, the use of circular pixel arrangements helps to alleviate or eliminate the color separation problem. However, the circular pixel arrangement will greatly reduce the pixel aperture ratio of the organic light-emitting diode display. The reduced aperture ratio leads to a shortened lifespan of the organic light-emitting diode display, making COE technology impossible to apply in medium and large-sized OLED products. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present application provides a pixel array and a display panel, which can solve the problem of short display life caused by low aperture ratio of a circular pixel array.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a pixel array, comprising:

[0007] A plurality of repeating units, each of which is hexagonal and includes six pixel units, each of which includes a first sub-pixel, a second sub-pixel, and a third sub-pixel:

[0008] The six pixel units are arranged around the center point of the repeating unit so that the first sub-pixels converge to form a first light-emitting area; and the second sub-pixels and the third sub-pixels in two adjacent pixel units converge to form a second light-emitting area and a third light-emitting area respectively; wherein,

The center point of the first light-emitting area coincides with the center point of the repeating unit, and the vertices of the second and third light-emitting areas coincide with the vertices of the hexagon in sequence.

[0015] In one embodiment, the sum of the radii of the circles of the adjacent fourth light-emitting area and the fifth light-emitting area located on the first side or the second side is smaller than the length of the first side or the second side;

[0016] The adjacent fourth light-emitting area and the fifth light-emitting area located on the third side, the fourth side, the fifth side or the sixth side have a sum of the radii of the circles in which the fourth light-emitting area and the fifth light-emitting area are located that is greater than the length of the third side, the fourth side, the fifth side and the sixth side; wherein,

[0017] The radius of the circle where the fourth light-emitting area is located is greater than the radius of the circle where the fifth light-emitting area is located.

[0018] In one embodiment, the six vertices of the hexagon are respectively the first vertex, the second vertex, the third vertex, the fourth vertex, the fifth vertex and the sixth vertex, and the six vertices are sequentially distributed counterclockwise around the center point of the repeating unit;

[0019] The center point of the fourth light-emitting area coincides with the first vertex, the third vertex and the fifth vertex respectively;

[0020] The center point of the fifth light-emitting area has a first distance, a second distance, and a third distance from the second vertex, the fourth vertex, and the sixth vertex, respectively;

[0021] The circle where the fourth light-emitting area is located is tangent to the circle where the fifth light-emitting area is located;

[0022] The first distance, the second distance and the third distance are equal in length, and their extension lines are parallel to the first side or the second side.

[0023] In one embodiment, the pixel unit further includes a light-transmitting area, and different operations are performed in the light-transmitting area to meet the application of the pixel array in different usage scenarios.

[0024] In one embodiment, a fourth sub-pixel is respectively set in the light-transmitting area of ​​two adjacent pixel units, and the pixel units are arranged around the center point of the repeating unit so that the fourth sub-pixels in the two adjacent pixel units converge to form a sixth light-emitting area.

[0026] In one embodiment, etching grooves are respectively opened in the light-transmitting areas of two adjacent pixel units, and the pixel units are arranged around the center point of the repeating unit, so that the etching grooves in the two adjacent pixel units are merged to form an etching hole.

[0027] In one embodiment, the etched hole is in a shape of a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon.

[0028] In one embodiment, the first light-emitting area, the fourth light-emitting area and the fifth light-emitting area are elliptical.

[0045] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0046] The present application provides a pixel array comprising a plurality of hexagonal repeating units 1. Each repeating unit 1 includes six pixel units 10, each pixel unit 10 comprising a first sub-pixel 101, a second sub-pixel 102, and a third sub-pixel 103. The six pixel units 10 are arranged around the center of the repeating unit 1 such that the first sub-pixels 101 converge to form a first luminous area 201, and the second sub-pixels 102 and third sub-pixels 103 in two adjacent pixel units 10 converge to form a second luminous area 202 and a third luminous area 203, respectively. The first luminous area 201 is circular in shape, while the second and third luminous areas 202 and 203 are both fan-shaped, with the center of the first luminous area 201 coinciding with the center of the repeating unit 1. The vertices of the second and third luminous areas 202 and 203 coincide with the vertices of the hexagon, spaced apart in sequence.

[0047] It should be noted that the first sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel and the third sub-pixel in the present application are not complete sub-pixels in a conventional pixel unit, and each sub-pixel does not have a separate driving unit.

[0048] In the present application, the first light-emitting area formed by several first sub-pixels is equivalent to a complete sub-pixel in a conventional pixel unit and has a separate light-emitting driving unit; the fourth light-emitting area formed by several second sub-pixels is equivalent to another complete sub-pixel in a conventional pixel unit and has a separate light-emitting driving unit; the fifth light-emitting area formed by several third sub-pixels is equivalent to another complete sub-pixel in a conventional pixel unit, which has a separate light-emitting driving unit.

[0049] The definition of sub-pixels in this application is only to help readers better understand the technical solution and to describe the pixel structure more clearly.

[0050] Specifically, in the pixel array, adjacent repeating units 1 are arranged edge to edge so that the second light-emitting areas 202 converge to form the fourth light-emitting area 301, and the third light-emitting areas 203 converge to form the fifth light-emitting area 302. Both the fourth light-emitting area 301 and the fifth light-emitting area 302 are circular.

[0051] 1-4 , six pixel units 10 are arranged in a rotational pattern around a central point to form a repeating unit 1. During the arrangement, the first sub-pixels 101 in each pixel unit 10 converge to form a first light-emitting region 201, the second sub-pixels 102 converge to form a second light-emitting region 202, and the third sub-pixels 103 converge to form a third light-emitting region 203.

[0052] 5 , the present application further arranges the repeating units 1 in an edge-to-edge manner, and during the arrangement process, the second light-emitting zone 202 and the third light-emitting zone 203 in the repeating unit 1 converge with the second light-emitting zone and the third light-emitting zone 203 in other repeating units 1 to form a fourth light-emitting zone 301 and a fifth light-emitting zone 302.

[0053] This different arrangement of the pixel unit 10 and the repeating unit 1 makes the shape of the light-emitting area of ​​each sub-pixel circular, which not only realizes the circular pixel arrangement of the display panel and alleviates the dark color separation problem in the COE technology, but also maximizes the pixel aperture ratio, thereby extending the life of the display panel, so that products produced by COE technology can be used in medium and large-sized OLED products.

[0054] Furthermore, when using an active stylus to operate the display panel 10, the active stylus needs to couple a touch signal with a specific frequency into the adapter trace 16 and the touch cable 17 to achieve touch control of the display panel 10. Therefore, the touch signal from the active stylus easily interferes significantly with the noise signal within the display panel 10, making the active stylus more severely interfered with by the noise signal.

[0055] In the present application, the number of repeating units 1 is not particularly limited and can be any integer greater than 2. Adjacent repeating units 1 are arranged edge-to-edge. It is understood that the "edge-to-edge" arrangement means that two adjacent sides are opposite each other, preferably parallel or overlapping, so that sub-pixels of the same luminescent color in adjacent repeating units 1 converge to form luminescent regions of different colors. A luminescent region refers to a region that can emit light of a specific color, and a translucent region refers to a region that can transmit light and has no luminescent units.

[0056] 2 and 3 , the pixel unit 10 includes a first sub-pixel 101, a second sub-pixel 102, and a third sub-pixel 103 disposed around a light-transmitting region. Each sub-pixel is combined with one adjacent sub-pixel of each adjacent pixel unit 10 to form a light-emitting region having the same luminous color. This facilitates the arrangement of the pixel units 10, increases the number of pixel units 10 per unit area in the display panel, and thereby improves the resolution of the display panel.

[0057] It is understandable that the first sub-pixel 101 , the second sub-pixel 102 and the third sub-pixel 103 respectively emit light of different colors, which may be a color combination of a common display unit, such as a combination of red, blue and green.

[0058] Preferably, the first sub-pixel 101 emits red light, the second sub-pixel 102 emits blue light, and the third sub-pixel 103 emits green light. In this specification, all sub-pixels in the following embodiments have this configuration and will not be described in detail.

[0059] Furthermore, there is no particular limitation on the shape of each pixel unit 10. Preferably, the shape of the pixel unit 10 is an isosceles triangle.

[0060] Preferably, the first sub-pixel 101, the second sub-pixel 102, and the third sub-pixel 103 are all fan-shaped. The size relationship of the three fan-shaped sectors is: the radius of the fan-shaped sector formed by the second sub-pixel 102 > the radius of the fan-shaped sector formed by the third sub-pixel 103 > the radius of the fan-shaped sector formed by the first sub-pixel 101.

[0061] In some embodiments, the repeating units 1 are arranged in a square or hexagonal pattern. This arrangement can effectively eliminate the jaggedness of pixels and enhance the customer experience.

[0062] In some embodiments, the six sides of the hexagon are a first side 401, a second side 402, a third side 403, a fourth side 404, a fifth side 405, and a sixth side 406. The lengths of the first side 401 and the second side 402 are equal, and the first side 401 and the second side 402 are the top and bottom sides of the hexagon, respectively. The lengths of the third side 403, the fourth side 404, the fifth side 405, and the sixth side 406 are equal. The lengths of the first side 401 and the second side 402 are greater than the lengths of the third side 403, the fourth side 404, the fifth side 405, and the sixth side 406. Furthermore, each interior angle of the hexagon is 120°.

[0063] The pixel opening ratio can be calculated based on the lifespan. When the pixel size is fixed, in order to maximize the total opening ratio, circular pixels need to be arranged in a hexagonal pattern.

[0064] Referring to Figure 3 , the hexagon is configured as a non-regular hexagon with equal interior angles and unequal sides. Specifically, the top and bottom sides of the hexagon, namely the first side 401 and the second side 402, are equal in length, each with a side length of M. The third side 403, the fourth side 404, the fifth side 405, and the sixth side 406 are equal in length, each with a side length of N. Here, M is greater than N. This hexagonal configuration maximizes the pixel aperture ratio and extends the life of the display panel.

[0065] In some embodiments, for the fourth light-emitting zone 301 and the fifth light-emitting zone 302 adjacent to each other on the first side 401 or the second side 402, the sum of the radii of the circles within which the fourth light-emitting zone 301 and the fifth light-emitting zone 302 are located is less than the length of the first side 401 or the second side 402. For the fourth light-emitting zone 301 and the fifth light-emitting zone 302 adjacent to each other on the third side 403, the fourth side 404, the fifth side 405, or the sixth side 406, the sum of the radii of the circles within which the fourth light-emitting zone 301 and the fifth light-emitting zone 302 are located is greater than the length of the third side 403, the fourth side 404, the fifth side 405, and the sixth side 406. The radius of the circle within which the fourth light-emitting zone 301 is located is greater than the radius of the circle within which the fifth light-emitting zone 302 is located.

[0066] Currently, the lifespan of OLED light-emitting materials, from highest to lowest, is red > green > blue. To minimize the difference in lifespan between the three different color pixels, the pixel areas on a display panel are typically arranged in the following order: blue > green > blue.

[0067] In this embodiment, the area of ​​the light-emitting region of each sub-pixel is also configured based on the above. Referring to Figures 1, 4, and 5, the light-emitting region of the first sub-pixel 101 is the first light-emitting region 201, the light-emitting region of the second sub-pixel 102 is the fourth light-emitting region 301, and the light-emitting region of the third sub-pixel 103 is the fifth light-emitting region. The area of ​​the three light-emitting regions is in the following order: the area of ​​the first light-emitting region 201 < the area of ​​the fifth light-emitting region 302 < the area of ​​the fourth light-emitting region 301.

[0068] In the present application, by setting the radius of the fourth light-emitting area 301 and the radius of the fifth light-emitting area 302 , the light-emitting area of ​​the blue pixel is made larger than the light-emitting area of ​​the green pixel, thereby averaging the lifespan of each sub-pixel.

[0069] In some embodiments, the six vertices of the hexagon are the first vertex 501, the second vertex 502, the third vertex 503, the fourth vertex 504, the fifth vertex 505, and the sixth vertex 506, respectively, and the six vertices are arranged counterclockwise around the center of the repeating unit 1. The center of the fourth light-emitting zone 301 coincides with the first vertex 501, the third vertex 503, and the fifth vertex 505, respectively. The center of the fifth light-emitting zone 302 is separated from the second vertex 502, the fourth vertex 504, and the sixth vertex 506 by a first distance A, a second distance B, and a third distance C, respectively. The circle containing the fourth light-emitting zone 301 is tangent to the circle containing the fifth light-emitting zone 302. The first distance A, the second distance B, and the third distance C are equal in length, and their extensions are parallel to the first side 401 or the second side 402.

[0070] In this embodiment, referring to FIG6 , the centers of the three fourth light-emitting areas 301 coincide with the three vertices of the hexagon, while the centers of the three fifth light-emitting areas 302 are spaced a certain distance from the three vertices of the hexagon. Specifically, the distance between the center of the fifth light-emitting area 302 located on the first side 401 and the sixth vertex 506 is a first distance A, the distance between the center of the fifth light-emitting area 302 located on the third side 403 and the second vertex 502 is a second distance B, and the distance between the center of the fifth light-emitting area 302 located on the fifth side 405 and the fourth vertex 504 is a third distance C.

[0071] By setting the fifth light-emitting area 302 to be offset from the vertex of the corresponding hexagon, the fourth light-emitting area 301 and the fifth light-emitting area 302 can be set with different radii to meet the different required areas, thereby averaging the lifespan of each pixel. At the same time, the circle where the fourth light-emitting area 301 is located and the circle where the fifth light-emitting area 302 is located can be set tangent to each side of the hexagon, reducing the gaps generated by the repeating unit 1 when it is arrayed, thereby maximizing the pixel aperture ratio.

[0072] In some embodiments, the pixel unit 10 further includes a light-transmitting area, and different operations are performed in the light-transmitting area to meet the application of the pixel array in different usage scenarios.

[0073] The arrangement structure in this application can also achieve the maximum aperture ratio based on the addition of different technologies.

[0074] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 7 and 8, a fourth sub-pixel 104 is respectively set in the light-transmitting area of ​​two adjacent pixel units 10, and the pixel units 10 are arranged around the center point of the repeating unit 1 so that the fourth sub-pixels 104 in the two adjacent pixel units 10 converge to form a sixth light-emitting area 204.

[0075] After the second sub-pixel 102 and the third sub-pixel 103 are positioned in the repeating unit 1, the position of the light-transmitting area in the repeating unit 1 can be drawn to the position of the first sub-pixel 101 (red pixel) or the white pixel, and the area and position between the two can be adjusted according to the life of the pixel material.

[0076] Specifically, referring to FIG. 9 , after the repeating unit 1 is arrayed, the total area of ​​the sixth light-emitting region 204 is less than the total area of ​​the first light-emitting region 201 .

[0077] Furthermore, referring to FIG. 1 , for products that are not suitable for white pixels, the first sub-pixel 101 may be drawn separately in the light-transmitting area.

[0078] In some embodiments, the sixth light-emitting area 204 is in a shape of a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon.

[0079] In some embodiments, an etched groove 105 is respectively formed in the light-transmitting area of ​​two adjacent pixel units 10. The pixel units 10 are arranged around the center point of the repeating unit 1 so that the etched grooves 105 in the two adjacent pixel units 10 are combined to form an etched hole 205. The etched hole 205 is in one of the shapes of a circle, an ellipse, and a polygon.

[0080] In some embodiments, the first light-emitting region 201 , the fourth light-emitting region 301 , and the fifth light-emitting region 302 are elliptical in shape.

[0081] Based on different needs in actual production, the shapes of the first light-emitting area 201 formed by the convergence of the first sub-pixels 101, the fourth light-emitting area 301 formed by the convergence of the second sub-pixels 102, and the fifth light-emitting area 302 formed by the convergence of the third sub-pixels 103 can be set to elliptical. The elliptical pixel arrangement can also reduce the dark state color separation phenomenon.

[0082] The present application also provides a display panel, which includes the pixel array described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0083] In this application, a display panel with a pixel array is applied. Due to its excellent pixel aperture ratio, the luminous life of the display panel can be improved. At the same time, it can also meet the needs of display panels using COE technology for wide application in medium and large-sized OLED products.
