Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments described below. Embodiments and features of the present disclosure can be combined with each other as long as they are not inconsistent with each other.
[0080] In the drawings, the size, the thickness, or the region of one or more constituent elements, or the layer can be exaggerated for clarity in some cases. Therefore, one embodiment of the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the drawing. The size, the shape, and the relative arrangement of one or more constituent elements in the drawings are schematically shown, and therefore, the present disclosure is not limited to the drawings.
[0081] In this specification, ordinal numbers such as "first", "second", and "third" are used to avoid confusion among constituent elements, and are not used to limit the numbers in the specification. In the present disclosure, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0119] In an example embodiment, the first transistor T1 to the seventh transistor T7 can be P-type transistors (as shown in FIG. 4) or can be N-type transistors. Using the same type of transistors in the pixel driving circuit can simplify the process flow, reduce the process difficulty of the display panel, and improve the yield of the product. In some possible implementations, the first transistor T1 to the seventh transistor T7 can include P-type transistors and N-type transistors. As shown in FIG. 5, which is an equivalent circuit schematic diagram of a pixel driving circuit, in FIG. 5, the second transistor T2 is an N-type transistor (i.e., an oxide thin film transistor), the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3 to the eighth transistor T8 are P-type transistors (i.e., low-temperature poly-silicon thin film transistors), the active layer of the low-temperature poly-silicon thin film transistor adopts low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS), and the active layer of the oxide thin film transistor adopts oxide semiconductor (Oxide).

[0122] In some examples, the first initial signal line INIT1 can be configured to provide a first initial signal to the pixel circuit, and the second initial signal line INIT2 can be configured to provide a second initial signal to the pixel circuit. For example, the first initial signal can be different from the second initial signal. The first initial signal and the second initial signal can be constant voltage signals, which can be, for example, between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, but are not limited thereto. In other examples, the first initial signal and the second initial signal can be the same, and only the first initial signal line can be provided to provide the first initial signal.
[0123] An arc edge design can be adopted on a large-size display panel, which can maximize the display area in the display screen and achieve an extremely narrow frame. The GOA is rotated together with the layout of the pixel circuit, as shown in FIG. 6, which is a structural schematic diagram of a display device. The display device can include a display panel, and the display panel can include a display substrate. The display substrate can include a display area AA and a frame area BB around the display area. The display area AA can include at least one corner area, and the frame area BB can include at least one corner area, and the at least one corner area of the display area AA and the at least one corner area of the frame area BB correspond. A plurality of sub-pixels PX are located in the display area AA. At least part of the sub-pixels PX in the plurality of sub-pixels PX are located in the at least one corner area of the display area AA and are arranged in a stepped manner. A plurality of driving circuits 10 can be arranged in the at least one corner area of the frame area BB. The driving circuit 10 can be a gate driver on array (GOA) circuit. The GOA circuit can be a gate driving circuit. The gate driving circuit is configured to provide a gate driving signal (for example, the gate driving signal can be a signal provided to the first scan line S1, the second scan line S2, and the light-emitting control line E in FIG. 4) to the sub-pixel PX in the display area AA.
[0124] In some example embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the bezel area BB can further include: a first bezel area B1 and a second bezel area B2 located on both sides of the display area AA along the second direction Y, a third bezel area B3 and a fourth bezel area B4 located on both sides of the display area AA along the first direction X; at least one corner area of the bezel area BB can include: a first corner area C1 connecting the first bezel area B1 and the third bezel area B3, a second corner area C2 connecting the third bezel area B3 and the second bezel area B2, a third corner area C3 connecting the second bezel area B2 and the fourth bezel area B4, and a fourth corner area C4 connecting the fourth bezel area B4 and the first bezel area B1.
[0125] In some example embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the plurality of drive circuits 10 can be located in the third bezel area B3, the fourth bezel area B4, the first corner area C1, the second corner area C2, the third corner area C3, and the fourth corner area C4.
[0126] In some example embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the bezel area BB can further be provided with a first power line VSS, which can be located on the side of the GOA circuit away from the display area AA along the first direction X, for example, in the third bezel area B3 and the fourth bezel area B4. The cathode of the light emitting element EL is usually provided as a common electrode layer, and the first power line VSS is provided to supply a second voltage signal to the common electrode layer, and the common electrode layer provides the second voltage signal to the plurality of light emitting elements EL. Since the display panel usually does not provide the first power line VSS in the corner (rounded corner) area.
[0127] In order to better meet people's needs for various functions and better screen experience (for example, a display screen with an ultra-high screen ratio), the display screen design with a narrow bezel has gradually become the mainstream form of display devices. However, the layout of some signal lines and circuits in the display panel in some implementations makes it impossible for the display panel to achieve a narrow bezel, or in the case of a narrow bezel area BB, the width of the signal traces located in the bezel area BB is small, and there is a technical problem of signal trace burn. For example, in the structure shown in FIG. 6, the first power line VSS is arranged on the side of the GOA circuit 10 away from the display area AA, that is, in the third bezel area B3, the first power line VSS and the GOA circuit 10 are arranged along the first direction X in sequence; in the fourth bezel area B4, the GOA circuit 10 and the first power line VSS are arranged along the first direction X in sequence. In the structure with a narrow bezel, the dimensions of the third bezel area B3 and the fourth bezel area B4 along the first direction X are limited, and the dimension (i.e. width) of the first power line VSS along the first direction X is small, which causes the technical problem of burn due to the small width of the first power line VSS.

A planar structure diagram of the fourth conductive layer located in the frame region (for example, located in the third frame region B3) can be as shown in FIG. 15f.
[0176] In an example embodiment, the first output end OUT1 is configured to provide a scan signal to the P-type transistor (i.e., a low-temperature polysilicon transistor) shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5, for example, to provide a scan signal to the control electrode of the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the fourth transistor T4, and the seventh transistor T7 in FIG. 4, or to the control electrode of the first transistor T1, the control electrode of the fourth transistor T4, the control electrode of the seventh transistor T7, and the control electrode of the eighth transistor T8 in FIG. 5; the second output end OUT2 is configured to provide a scan signal to the N-type transistor (i.e., an oxide transistor) shown in FIG. 5, for example, to provide a scan signal to the control electrode of the second transistor T2 in FIG. 5; and the third output end OUT3 is configured to provide a scan signal to the light-emitting transistor shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5, for example, to provide a scan signal to the control electrode of the fifth transistor T5 and the control electrode of the sixth transistor T6 in FIG. 5, or to the control electrode of the fifth transistor T5 and the control electrode of the sixth transistor T6 in FIG. 4.
[0177] As shown in FIGS. 14-15f, the structure of the fourth frame region B4 can be symmetrically arranged with the structure of the third frame region B3 along the middle line of the display substrate in the second direction Y. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 14, the orthographic projection of the first branch structure VSS1 on the base can at least partially overlap the orthographic projection of the output transistor in the first gate drive circuit 10P on the base, for example, the orthographic projection of the output transistor (the fourth transistor T104 and the fifth transistor T105) in the first gate drive circuit 10P on the base can be located within the range of the orthographic projection of the first branch structure VSS1 on the base. The first branch structure VSS1 can shield the output transistor in the first gate drive circuit 10P, and can reduce the influence of the interference signal on the output transistor in the gate drive circuit 10P.
[0178] As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 14, in the direction in which the display region AA points to the frame region BB, the orthogonal projection of the second branch structure VSS2 on the substrate can be located between the orthogonal projection of the second gate driving circuit 10N on the substrate and the orthogonal projection of the third gate driving circuit 10EM on the substrate, and the orthogonal projection of the third branch structure VSS3 on the substrate can be located on the side of the orthogonal projection of the third gate driving circuit 10EM on the substrate away from the orthogonal projection of the second gate driving circuit 10N on the substrate.
[0179] In the example embodiment, the first power line VSS arranged as a plurality of branch structures can increase the width of the first power line VSS, and to some extent, can reduce the risk of burn caused by the first power line VSS being too narrow.
[0180] In the example embodiment, in the direction perpendicular to the plane on which the substrate lies, the first power line VSS can be located on the side of the gate driving circuit 10 away from the substrate. As shown in FIG. 14, the positions of the plurality of branch structures of the first power line VSS generally take into account the restrictions and shielding effects of other signal lines (such as the clock signal line CK and the power signal line VGL, VGH), for example, the first gate driving circuit 10P can adopt a 9T3C structure, and the first branch structure VSS1 of the first power line VSS can shield the output transistor in the first gate driving circuit 10P of the 9T3C structure, thereby playing a shielding role, and the second branch structure VSS2 can not overlap with the gate driving circuit 10 (avoiding other signal lines). The branch structures of the first power line VSS of the embodiments of the present disclosure can not be limited to the positional relationship of the plurality of branch structures of the first power line VSS shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 14, and in the case of changes in the circuit structure of the gate driving circuit 10, the positions of the plurality of branch structures of the first power line VSS can change accordingly. The positions of the plurality of branch structures of the first power line VSS can take into account two factors: on the one hand, avoiding other signal lines to avoid shorting with other signal lines, and on the other hand, trying to completely shield the transistors in the corresponding gate driving circuit to play a shielding role.
[0181] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, the second branch structure VSS2 and the third branch structure VSS3 are limited in space due to other signal line traces, and do not cover any transistor (TFT) above, so that there is no overlap with the internal TFT tube, and no shielding effect is generated. However, the signal line distribution on the GOA of other products can be different, and the positions covered by the multiple branch structures of the first power line VSS can be different. If the branch structure of the first power line VSS covers the TFT tube of the effective GOA, in addition to considering that the space distribution meets the requirements, the covered TFT tube can also be completely blocked to play a shielding role. If the branch structure (trace) of the first power line VSS does not cover the TFT (transistor) of the effective GOA, only the requirement of meeting the space distribution needs to be considered.
[0182] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 15a and 15b, the multiple branch structures of the first power line VSS are arranged on the side away from the substrate of the first gate driving circuit 10P (P-Gate GOA), the second gate driving circuit 10N (N-Gate GOA), and the third gate driving circuit 10EM (EM GOA). The multiple branch structures of the first power line VSS can be arranged on the side away from the substrate of the dummy GOA (which can be referred to as virtual GOA) corresponding to the gate driving circuit 10. The relative positions of the multiple branch structures of the first power line VSS and the dummy GOA (virtual GOA) and the relative positions of the corresponding effective GOA can be the same. Thus, the multiple branch structures (i.e., branch traces) of the first power line VSS are formed on the side away from the substrate in the GOA area. As shown in FIG. 15a, the upper half of the GOA is the effective GOA, and the lower half of the GOA is the dummy GOA. As shown in FIG. 15b, the poly layer in the effective GOA is completely connected, while the poly layer in the dummy GOA has been broken, disconnecting the channel layer of the transistor (TFT), and avoiding the conduction of the transistor in the dummy GOA (virtual GOA circuit). The multiple branch structures of the first power line VSS located in the third border area B3 and the fourth border area B4 extend from the second border area B2 to the pad area 633 of the one border area B1.
[0183] As shown in FIG. 15a and FIG. 15b, the display substrate can include a first dummy gate driving circuit D10P, a second dummy gate driving circuit D10N, and a third dummy gate driving circuit D10EM, wherein, in the arrangement direction of the first gate driving circuit 10P, the first dummy gate driving circuit D10P can be located on one side of one of the first gate driving circuits 10P; in the arrangement direction of the second gate driving circuit 10N, the second dummy gate driving circuit D10N can be located on one side of one of the second gate driving circuits 10N; in the arrangement direction of the third gate driving circuit 10EM, the third dummy gate driving circuit D10EM can be located on one side of one of the third gate driving circuits 10EM.
[0184] As shown in FIG. 15a, the orthographic projection of the first branch structure VSS1 on the substrate can at least partially overlap the orthographic projection of the output transistor in the first gate driving circuit 10P and the position of the output transistor in the first dummy gate driving circuit D10P on the substrate, for example, the orthographic projection of the output transistor (the fourth transistor T104 and the fifth transistor T105) in the first gate driving circuit 10P and the position of the output transistor (the position T104D of the fourth transistor T104 and the position T105D of the fifth transistor T105) in the first dummy gate driving circuit D10P on the substrate can be located within the range of the orthographic projection of the first branch structure VSS1 on the substrate.
[0185] As shown in FIG. 15a, in the direction in which the display area AA points to the frame area BB, the orthographic projection of the second branch structure VSS2 on the substrate can be located between the orthographic projection of the second dummy gate driving circuit D10N on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the third dummy gate driving circuit D10EM on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the third branch structure VSS3 on the substrate can be located on the side of the orthographic projection of the third dummy gate driving circuit D10EM on the substrate away from the orthographic projection of the second dummy gate driving circuit D10N on the substrate.
[0186] As shown in FIG. 15b, in the dummy gate driving circuit, the active layer can be interrupted, and signal communication can be avoided, for example, the active layer in the transistor can be interrupted at the position of the channel region, and the transistor in the dummy gate driving circuit can be avoided from being turned on.
[0187] In an example embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 16, the branch structure can include a first end portion (D11, D21, D31) and a second end portion (D12, D22, D32), the first end portions of the plurality of branch structures can extend to the frame area where the binding area 63 is located (for example, the frame area where the binding area 63 is located can be the first frame area B1), and the second end portions of the plurality of branch structures can extend to the frame area on the side of the display area AA away from the binding area 63; for example, the first end portions of the plurality of branch structures can extend to the first frame area B1, and the second end portions of the plurality of branch structures can extend to the second frame area B2.

[0190] In an example embodiment, the bus VSSL of the first power supply line and the third branch structure VSS3 are connected in the overlapping area to form a double-layer structure, which increases the thickness of the first power supply line VSS and reduces the impedance and voltage drop. In an example embodiment, the bus VSSL of the first power supply line and the connection end portion (D31) of the third branch structure VSS3 can be electrically connected with the driving chip IC through the binding area 63.
