[0126] In this embodiment, the structure of each pixel driving circuit 211a of the present application is the same, that is, the input end of the switch active portion T2A equivalent to the switch transistor T2 is arranged on the same side. If the first data signal line Data1 and the second data signal line Data2 are arranged on both sides of the pixel driving circuit 211a, for example, when the first data signal line Data1 is arranged on the left side of the pixel driving circuit 211a and the second data signal line Data2 is arranged on the right side of the pixel driving circuit 211a, then the input end of the switch active portion T2A of the sub-pixel unit 211 of the first row is adjacent to the first data signal line Data1, and the input end of the switch active portion T2A of the sub-pixel unit 211 of the second row is adjacent to the second data signal line Data1. The spacing of Data2 is the width of a sub-pixel unit 211, that is, a connecting line across the sub-pixel unit 211 is required to electrically connect the second data signal line Data2 and the switch active part T2A of the sub-pixel unit 211 of the second row. The connecting line overlaps with multiple structures in the pixel driving circuit 211a, and the coupling capacitance increases, resulting in poor stability of the pixel driving circuit 211a; for example, in the structure of Figure 19, the present application reduces the connection distance between the data signal line and the switch active part T2A in the sub-pixel unit 211 by setting the two data signal lines on the same side of the pixel driving circuit 211a, reduces the coupling capacitance inside the pixel driving circuit 211a, and improves the stability of the pixel driving circuit 211a.

In the first direction X, the width of the first sub-plate 341 is smaller than the width of the second sub-plate 342, the width of the first sub-plate 341 may be greater than the width of the fourth sub-plate 344, and the width of the fourth sub-plate 344 may be greater than or equal to the widths of the third sub-plate 343 and the fifth sub-plate 345.
[0128] In this embodiment, since the potential of the driving gate T1G is the potential of the third node Q, the potential change of the third node Q directly affects the working current of the light-emitting device 211b, so this application needs to ensure the stability of the potential of the third node Q; this application can make the positive projection of the driving gate T1G on the first high potential line VDD1 located within the first sub-plate 341, which is equivalent to using the first sub-plate 341 as a shielding layer to maintain the stability of the potential of the third node Q, so this application needs to increase the lateral width of the first sub-plate 341 so that the first sub-plate 341 fully covers the driving gate T1G, and the third plate Cst1 of the storage capacitor Cst is reused as the driving gate T1G, that is, the positive projection of the third plate Cst1 on the first high potential line VDD1 can be located within the first sub-plate 341, so the width of the first sub-plate 341 of this application can be greater than the widths of the third sub-plate 343, the fourth sub-plate 344 and the fifth sub-plate 345.
[0129] In this embodiment, the fifth electrical connection section 315 and the first extension section 321 are both electrically connected to the driving gate T1G, so changes in the potential on the fifth electrical connection section 315 and the first extension section 321 will also affect the potential of the driving gate T1G. Therefore, the present application can increase the width of the fourth sub-plate 344 to fully cover the fifth electrical connection section 315 and the first extension section 321. Therefore, the lateral width of the fourth sub-plate 344 of the present application can be greater than the lateral width of the third sub-plate 343 and the fifth sub-plate 345.

The constant high potential on the second electrode plate improves the anti-coupling capability of the first control signal line Nscan1, thereby improving the stability of the control signal transmitted by the first control signal line Nscan1, avoiding abnormal start-up of the compensation transistor T3, ensuring the stability of the potential of the gate of the driving transistor T1, and improving the technical problem of abnormal display of the display panel 100.
[0132] It should be noted that, since the second sub-plate 342 needs to fully cover the compensation gate T3G and part of the first extension section 321 , the lateral width of the second sub-plate 342 of the present application is greater than that of the first sub-plate 341 .

[0134] In the present application, the longitudinal width of the second sub-plate 342 is increased so that the second sub-plate 342 covers the compensation gate T3G and the first conductive segment 331 at the same time. The compensation gate T3G and the first conductive segment 331 serve as the first electrode plate, and the second sub-plate 342 serves as the second electrode plate. The first electrode plate and the second electrode plate form a first capacitor C1. The relative area between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate is increased, thereby increasing the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1, thereby improving the stability of the control signal transmitted by the first control signal line Nscan1, avoiding abnormal start-up of the compensation transistor T3, ensuring the stability of the potential of the gate of the driving transistor T1, and improving the technical problem of abnormal display of the display panel 100.

The first control signal line Nscan1 overlapping with the second sub-plate 342 is the third sub-portion of the first electrode, and the positive projection of the third sub-portion on the second source and drain layer 135 is located within the first high potential line VDD1.
[0136] In the present application, the longitudinal width of the second sub-plate 342 is increased so that the second sub-plate 342 simultaneously covers the compensation gate T3G, the first conductive segment 331 and part of the first control signal line Nscan1. The compensation gate T3G, the first conductive segment 331 and part of the first control signal line Nscan1 serve as the first electrode plate, and the second sub-plate 342 serves as the second electrode plate. The first electrode plate and the second electrode plate form a first capacitor C1. The relative area between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate is increased, which increases the capacitance value of the first capacitor C1, thereby improving the stability of the control signal transmitted by the first control signal line Nscan1, avoiding abnormal start-up of the compensation transistor T3, ensuring the stability of the potential of the gate of the driving transistor T1, and improving the technical problem of abnormal display of the display panel 100.
[0137] Therefore, the first electrode plate can be set in the third gate layer 131, or the first electrode plate can be set in the first source and drain layer 133, or the first electrode plate can be set in both the third gate layer 131 and the first source and drain layer 133, while the second electrode plate is only set in the second source and drain layer 135.
[0138] It should be noted that in Figures 16 to 25, since the fifth extension segment 325 is connected to the first control signal line Nscan1 and the fifth extension segment 325 overlaps with the second sub-plate 342, the fifth extension segment 325 of the present application can also serve as the fourth sub-portion of the first electrode plate, that is, the positive projection of the fourth sub-portion on the first high potential line VDD1 is located within the second sub-plate 342.
[0139] It should be noted that in Figures 16 to 25, since the area of the first shading unit T3S is larger than the area of the compensation gate T3G, and the first shading unit T3S can be electrically connected to the first control signal line Nscan1, a capacitor is also formed between the part of the first shading unit T3S that extends beyond the compensation gate T3G and the second sub-plate 342, and the part of the first shading unit T3S that extends beyond the compensation gate T3G can serve as part of the first sub-plate 341.
[0140] It should be noted that, in FIG. 16 to FIG. 22 , part of the third sub-portion and the first control signal line Nscan1 are overlapped, and the overlapping part can serve as a part of the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate, respectively.
[0141] It should be noted that, in the present application, when the first high potential line VDD1 does not cover the compensation gate T3G and the first conductive segment 331, the first control signal line Nscan1 and the first high potential line VDD1 have a small overlap, and the first capacitance C1 between the two can be 7.3fF, while the second capacitance between the data line and the first control signal line Nscan1 is 1.05fF; taking the second source-drain layer 135 in Figures 22 and 23 as an example, when the first high potential line VDD1 does not cover the compensation gate T3G, the first conductive segment 331, and part of the first control signal line Nscan1, the first high potential line VDD1 has a small overlap, and the first capacitance C1 between the two can be 7.3fF, while the second capacitance between the data line and the first control signal line Nscan1 is 1.05fF. When Nscan1 is covered, the area of the first electrode increases, and the value of the first capacitor C1 between the first high potential line VDD1 and the first control signal line Nscan1 increases to 14.2fF, and the second capacitor value between the data line and the first control signal line Nscan1 remains 1.05fF; therefore, compared with the prior art, the quotient of the second capacitor value and the first capacitor C1 value of the present application is reduced from 14.38% to 7.4%, thereby improving the anti-coupling capability of the first control signal line Nscan1, and thereby improving the stability of the control signal transmitted by the first control signal line Nscan1.
[0142] 26 and 28 , the third source-drain layer 137 may include a third high potential line VDD3 extending along the second direction Y, the third high potential line VDD3 being electrically connected to the second high potential line VDD2, and the third high potential line VDD3 being provided mainly to reduce the impedance of the conductor that transmits a constant voltage high level.
[0143] It should be noted that in Figures 16 to 26, the first high potential line VDD1 of the present application can be electrically connected to the second high potential line VDD2, and then the second high potential line VDD2 is electrically connected to the fourth plate Cst2 of the storage capacitor Cst, and the fourth plate Cst2 located in the same row is electrically connected through the first electrical connection section 311; therefore, the wire for transmitting a constant voltage high level in the present application has four layers of metal, namely, the fourth plate Cst2 and the first electrical connection section 311 located in the second gate layer 127, the second high potential line VDD2 located in the first source and drain layer 133, and the fourth plate Cst2 located in the same row. The bit line VDD2, the first high potential line VDD1 located in the second source and drain layer 135, the third high potential line VDD3 located in the third source and drain layer 137, the fourth electrode plate Cst2, the first electrical connection section 311, and the second high potential line VDD2 all extend along the first direction X, and the first high potential line VDD1 and the third high potential line VDD3 all extend along the second direction Y. Therefore, the present application uses four layers of metal to transmit a constant voltage high level to form a metal mesh that is crisscrossed horizontally and vertically in a mesh shape to reduce the impedance of the wire, thereby reducing the loss of the constant voltage high level on the transmitted wire.

The structures of the first third high potential line VDD3 and the third third high potential line VDD3 may be the same, and the structures of the second third high potential line VDD3 and the third third high potential line VDD3 are different. In addition, the lateral width of the second third high potential line VDD3 is smaller than the lateral width of the third third high potential line VDD3.
[0145] Please refer to Figure 29. Each repeating unit 137a is provided with a longitudinal reset signal line and three transverse reset signal lines. In order to reduce the impedance of the reset signal line, the longitudinal reset signal line can be electrically connected to one of the three transverse reset signal lines. For example, three rows of repeating units 137a are provided in Figure 30, and each row of repeating units 137a includes three repeating units 137a. Each repeating unit 137a is provided with a fourth reset signal line Vi4. The fourth reset signal line Vi4 in the first repeating unit 137a can be electrically connected to the first reset signal line Vi1 of each row, the fourth reset signal line Vi4 in the second repeating unit 137a can be electrically connected to the second reset signal line Vi2 of each row, and the fourth reset signal line Vi4 in the third repeating unit 137a can be electrically connected to the third reset signal line Vi3 of each row, so that each transverse reset signal line is electrically connected to the fourth reset signal line Vi4 to form a metal mesh that is crisscrossed horizontally and vertically, thereby reducing the impedance of the reset signal line.
