[0096] The embodiments described in this disclosure can be implemented in many different forms. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the implementation methods and content can be varied in many ways without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. Therefore, this disclosure should not be construed as limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0097] In the accompanying drawings, the size of constituent elements, the thickness of layers, or areas may sometimes be exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, any implementation of this disclosure is not necessarily limited to the dimensions shown in the drawings, and the shapes and sizes of components in the drawings do not reflect true proportions. Furthermore, the drawings schematically illustrate ideal examples, and any implementation of this disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values ​​shown in the drawings.

[0098] The ordinal numbers such as "first," "second," and "third" in this disclosure are used to avoid confusion among the constituent elements, rather than to limit the quantity.

[0099] In this disclosure, for convenience, terms such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer" are used to indicate orientation or positional relationships when describing the positional relationships of constituent elements with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is solely for the purpose of facilitating the description of embodiments and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure. The positional relationships of the constituent elements may be appropriately changed depending on the orientation of the described constituent elements. Therefore, the use of terms not limited to those described herein can be appropriately replaced as appropriate.

[0100] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; a direct connection or an indirect connection via an intermediate component, or a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the meaning of these terms in this disclosure as appropriate.

[0101] In this disclosure, a transistor is a device that includes at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between the drain electrode (or drain terminal, drain connection region, or drain electrode) and the source electrode (or source terminal, source connection region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. In this disclosure, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.

[0102] In this disclosure, the first electrode can be the drain electrode and the second electrode can be the source electrode, or vice versa. When using transistors with opposite polarities or when the current direction changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source electrode" and the "drain electrode" can sometimes be interchanged. Therefore, in this disclosure, the "source electrode" and the "drain electrode" can be interchanged. In this disclosure, the control electrode can be the gate electrode.

[0103] In this disclosure, "electrical connection" includes the situation where constituent elements are connected together by a component having a certain electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "component having a certain electrical function," as long as it enables the transmission and reception of electrical signals between the connected constituent elements. The "component having a certain electrical function" can be, for example, an electrode or wiring, a switching element such as a transistor, or other functional elements such as a resistor, inductor, or capacitor.

[0104] Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of a display device. The display substrate may include a timing controller, a data signal driving circuit, a scan signal driving circuit, a light emission signal driving circuit, and a pixel array. The timing controller is connected to the data signal driving circuit, the scan signal driving circuit, and the light emission signal driving circuit. The data signal driving circuit is connected to multiple data signal lines (D1 to Dn), the scan signal driving circuit is connected to multiple scan signal lines (G1 to Gm), and the light emission signal driving circuit is connected to multiple light emission signal lines (E1 to Eo). The pixel array may include multiple sub-pixels Pxij, where i and j can be natural numbers. At least one sub-pixel Pxij may include a circuit unit and a light emission device connected to the circuit unit. The circuit unit may include a pixel driving circuit, which may be connected to the scan signal lines, the light emission signal lines, and the data signal lines (which may be referred to as data lines). In an exemplary embodiment, the timing controller can provide grayscale values ​​and control signals of specifications suitable for the data signal driving circuit to the data signal driving circuit, clock signals, scan start signals, etc. of specifications suitable for the scan signal driving circuit to the scan signal driving circuit, and clock signals, transmit stop signals, etc. of specifications suitable for the light emission signal driving circuit to the light emission signal driving circuit. The data signal driving circuit can use the grayscale values ​​and control signals received from the timing controller to generate data voltages to be provided to data signal lines D1, D2, D3, ..., Dn. For example, the data signal driving circuit can sample the grayscale values ​​using a clock signal and apply the data voltage corresponding to the grayscale value to data signal lines D1 to Dn on a pixel-by-pixel basis, where n can be a natural number. The scan signal driving circuit can generate scan signals to be provided to scan signal lines G1, G2, G3, ..., Gm by receiving clock signals, scan start signals, etc., from the timing controller. For example, the scan signal driving circuit can sequentially provide scan signals with conduction level pulses to scan signal lines G1 to Gm. For example, a scan signal driving circuit can be configured as a shift register and can generate scan signals by sequentially transmitting scan start signals, provided in the form of on-level pulses, to the next stage circuit under the control of a clock signal, where m can be a natural number. A light-emitting signal driving circuit can generate transmit signals to be provided to light-emitting signal lines E1, E2, E3, ..., Eo by receiving clock signals, transmit stop signals, etc., from a timing controller. For example, a light-emitting signal driving circuit can sequentially provide transmit signals with cutoff level pulses to light-emitting signal lines E1 to Eo. For example, a light-emitting driver can be configured as a shift register and can generate transmit signals by sequentially transmitting transmit stop signals, provided in the form of cutoff level pulses, to the next stage circuit under the control of a clock signal, where o can be a natural number.

In a plane parallel to the display substrate, the first bezel region B1 may include a first fan-out area 11, a bending area 12, a second fan-out area 13, and a bonding area 14 arranged sequentially along the direction away from the display area AA. The bonding area 14 may include a driver chip area 141 and a bonding electrode area 142 arranged sequentially along the direction away from the bending area 12 of the second fan-out area 13. The first fan-out area 11 may include a data fan-out line, a first power line, and a second power line VSS. The data fan-out line is located in the middle of the first fan-out area 11 and includes multiple data connection lines. The multiple data connection lines are configured to connect to the data lines of the display area AA in a fanout routing manner. The first power line is configured to connect to the high-voltage power line (VDD) of the display area AA. The second power line is a low-voltage power line (VSS) located in the third bezel region B3 and the fourth bezel region B4. The bending area 12 may include a composite insulating layer with grooves, configured to bend the bonding area 14 to the back of the display area AA (as shown in FIG. 4). The second fan-out area 13 includes multiple data connection lines led out in a fan-out routing manner. The driver chip area 141 may house an integrated circuit (IC) 20, configured to be connected to the multiple data connection lines. The bonding electrode area 142 includes multiple bonding pads, configured to be bonded to a flexible printed circuit (FPC) 30. In an exemplary embodiment, the integrated circuit (IC) 20 may be bonded to the driver chip area 141, and the flexible printed circuit (FPC) 30 may be bonded to the bonding electrode area 142. In an exemplary embodiment, the integrated circuit 20 (which may be referred to as a data driving circuit) may generate driving signals required to drive sub-pixels and may provide the driving signals to the sub-pixel Pxij located in the display area AA. For example, the driving signal may be a data signal controlling the brightness of the sub-pixel. In an exemplary embodiment, the bonding electrode area 142 may be provided with a pad including a plurality of pins, and the flexible circuit board 30 may be bonded to the pad.

[0107] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG4, the bending region 12 can reverse the surface of the bonding region 14, that is, the upward-facing surface of the bonding region 14 can be transformed to face downward by bending the bending region 12. In an exemplary embodiment, when the bending region 12 is bent, the bonding region 14 can overlap with the display region AA in the thickness direction of the display panel.

[0108] In exemplary embodiments, for large-size display substrates, multiple data driver ICs (also known as driver ICs or driver integrated circuits) and multiple FPCs can be provided. The multiple FPCs are respectively bound to and connected to the multiple data driver ICs. For example, four data driver ICs can be provided, each bound to one of the four FPCs. This disclosure is not limited to four ICs and four FPCs; for example, two data driver ICs and two FPCs can be provided. For small-size display substrates, one or two data driver ICs can be provided. In this disclosure, the number of data driver ICs and FPCs can be set according to the size and functional requirements of the display substrate, and this disclosure does not limit this number.

[0109] With the development of display technology, people have increasingly higher requirements for high refresh rates and narrow bezels. Existing display substrates, while meeting high refresh rates, struggle to further narrow bezels, presenting a significant challenge in bezel-narrowing design. To improve the refresh rate of the display substrate while simultaneously satisfying its threshold voltage (Vth) compensation capability, a dual-source structure can be employed. This dual-source structure, also known as dual-data-link (DDL) technology, increases the threshold voltage compensation time and improves display quality. Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of a dual-source display panel. The panel comprises M*N display units arranged in an array, defined by M gate lines and N pairs of data lines, where M and N are integers greater than or equal to 2. Each pair of data lines includes a first data line DA and a second data line DB, respectively positioned on opposite sides of its respective display column. For the m-th display row (m = 1, 2, ..., M), all N display units in the m-th row are connected to the m-th gate line G(m). For the nth display column, n = 1, 2, ..., N, two data lines of the nth data line D(n) are connected to the display units of the odd-numbered display rows and the even-numbered display rows, respectively. That is, the display units of the odd-numbered display rows in the nth display column are connected to the first data line DA, and the display units of the even-numbered display rows are connected to the second data line DB; or the display units of the even-numbered display rows are connected to the first data line DA, and the display units of the odd-numbered display rows are connected to the second data line DB. During the operation of this display panel, within one row cycle of the scan signal output by the mth gate line G(m), all the second data lines DB write display data to all display units of the mth display row. Within one row cycle of the scan signal output by the (m+1)th gate line G(m+1), all the first data lines DA write display data to all display units of the (m+1)th display row.

[0110] In the display panel shown in Figure 5, the dual data line structure increases the number of data lines, resulting in a larger size of the first bezel B1 along the second direction Y. This presents a challenge in achieving high refresh rates and high display quality by making the bezel narrowing design difficult. The dual data line structure (DDL technology) increases the number of data lines, while the number of driver IC pins is limited. A data selector (MUX, or multiplexer) can be used to reduce the number of driver IC pins, which can reduce the number of driver ICs and lower costs in some cases. As shown in Figure 6, with MUX technology, the first bezel area B1 also needs additional space to accommodate the data selector (MUX) 40, increasing the size of the first bezel B1 along the second direction Y. To reduce the width of the bottom bezel, some display substrates use FIAA (Fanout in AA) or FIP (Fanout in Panel). Panel (FIP) technology involves adding signal traces to the display area AA. A portion of the data signals from the data lines are transmitted through these new traces, reducing the size of the first fan-out area 11 along the second direction Y, thereby reducing the width of the first bezel B1 (i.e., the size of the first bezel B1 along the second direction Y). However, in a dual-data-line structure, the number of data lines in the display area AA is relatively dense, making it difficult to add too many signal traces. Therefore, FIAA or FIP cannot be used to reduce the bezel in a dual-data-line structure. In a single-data-line structure, especially in high-PPI structures, the line density of the display area AA is also very high, making it difficult to add too many signal traces. This also presents the technical problem of not being able to use FIAA or FIP to reduce the bezel. Furthermore, in structures using FIAA or FIP, the increased line density of the display area AA reduces light transmittance.

[0111] As can be seen from the above, there is a technical problem in display substrates where narrowing the bezel is difficult.

Within the plane of the display substrate, the display substrate may include a display area AA and a border area BB located around the display area AA. In the second direction Y, the border area BB may include a first border area B1 and a second border area B2 located on both sides of the display area AA.

In addition, compared to Figure 6, the third part b3 is essentially a straight line drawn down to the bonding area (the area bonded to the drive circuit 20), eliminating the need for a large second fan-out area 13 as shown in Figure 6, thus saving space in the second fan-out area 13. That is, compared to Figure 6, the structures shown in Figures 9a, 9b, 11a, and 11b have significantly reduced positions of the first fan-out area 11 and the second fan-out area 13 along the second direction Y, greatly reducing the size of the first border area B1 along the second direction Y and thus reducing the width of the first border area B1.

[0206] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG20, a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of the display area of ​​a display panel according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. FIG20 illustrates the structure of a sub-pixel of the display area as an example. In this example, it is illustrated that the multiple transistors in the pixel circuit are of the same type. For example, the multiple transistors in the pixel circuit may all be low-temperature polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors or all be oxide thin-film transistors. In other examples, the multiple transistors in the pixel circuit may be low-temperature polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors and oxide thin-film transistors. In addition, this example shows that the display panel can integrate a mutual capacitance touch structure to form an FMLOC structure.

[0207] In some examples, as shown in Figure 20, the display area of ​​the display panel may include, in a direction perpendicular to the display panel, a substrate 101 (which may be referred to as a base), and a circuit structure layer 200, a light-emitting structure layer 300, an encapsulation structure layer 400, a touch structure layer 500, and a color filter layer 600 sequentially disposed on the substrate 101.

However, this embodiment is not limited in this respect. In other examples, a buffer layer may be disposed on the side of the semiconductor layer near the substrate. This buffer layer prevents harmful substances from the substrate from penetrating the interior of the display panel and increases the adhesion of the film layers in the display panel to the substrate. In still other examples, a bottom shielding metal layer (BSM) may be disposed on the side of the buffer layer near the substrate. This bottom shielding metal layer may be configured to at least partially cover the active layer of the thin-film transistors of the pixel circuitry to prevent external light from affecting the performance of the thin-film transistors. In still other examples, a passivation layer may be omitted between the first and second source / drain metal layers, and only a first planarization layer may be disposed between the first and second source / drain metal layers.

[0209] In some examples, as shown in FIG20, the semiconductor layer of the display area may include at least the active layer 210 of the thin-film transistor 21. The active layer 210 of the thin-film transistor 21 may include a first region 2101, a second region 2102, and a channel region 2100 located between the first region 2101 and the second region 2102. The first gate metal layer may include at least the gate 213 of the thin-film transistor 21 and the first electrode 221 of the capacitor 22. The orthographic projection of the gate 213 of the thin-film transistor 21 onto the substrate 101 may cover the orthographic projection of the channel region 2100 of the active layer 210 onto the substrate 101. The second gate metal layer may include at least the second electrode 222 of the capacitor 22.

The first source-drain metal layer may include at least the source 211 and the drain 212 of the thin-film transistor 21. The interlayer insulating layer M2 may have multiple vias (e.g., including a first pixel via and a second pixel via) in the display area. The interlayer insulating layer M2, the second gate insulating layer M02, and the first gate insulating layer M1 within the first pixel via can be removed, exposing at least a portion of the surface of the first region 2101 of the active layer 210. Similarly, the interlayer insulating layer M2, the second gate insulating layer M02, and the first gate insulating layer M1 within the second pixel via can be removed, exposing at least a portion of the surface of the second region 2102 of the active layer 210. The source 211 of the thin-film transistor 21 can be electrically connected to the first region 2101 of the active layer 210 through the first pixel via, and the drain 212 can be electrically connected to the second region 2102 of the active layer 210 through the second pixel via. The second source-drain metal layer may include at least a first transition electrode 231. The first transition electrode 231 can be electrically connected to the drain 212 of the thin-film transistor 21 of the pixel circuit through a third pixel via formed by the passivation layer M31 and the first planarization layer M32. The third source-drain metal layer may include at least a second transition electrode 232 (the transition electrode mentioned above may include the first transition electrode 231 and the second transition electrode 232). The second transition electrode 232 can be electrically connected to the first transition electrode 231 located in the second source-drain metal layer through a fourth pixel via formed by the second planarization layer M4. The second transition electrode 232 can be electrically connected to the first electrode 301 (e.g., the anode) of the light-emitting element through a fifth pixel via formed by the third planarization layer M5. In this example, the electrical connection between the pixel circuit and the light-emitting element can be achieved through the first transition electrode 231 and the second transition electrode 232.

[0210] In some examples, the gate lines of the display area may be located, for example, in the first gate metal layer; the data lines of the display area may be located, for example, in the second or third source-drain metal layer; and the high-potential power lines of the display area (e.g., the first power line VDD) may be located, for example, in at least one of the second and third source-drain metal layers. This embodiment is not limited in this respect. The circuit structure layer of this example may include three source-drain metal layers, which can avoid arranging too many traces in a single source-drain metal layer, thereby facilitating the realization of a narrow bezel structure.

[0211] In some examples, as shown in Figure 20, the light-emitting structure layer 300 may include a pixel definition layer 304 and multiple light-emitting elements. For example, each light-emitting element may include a stacked first electrode 301, an organic light-emitting layer 302, and a second electrode 303. The first electrode 301 of the light-emitting element can be an anode, and the first electrode 301 can be disposed on the third planarization layer 107 and electrically connected to the second transition electrode 232 through a fifth pixel via formed in the third planarization layer M5. The pixel definition layer 304 is disposed on the first electrode 301 and the third planarization layer M5, and the pixel definition layer 304 may have multiple pixel openings, one pixel opening exposing at least a portion of the surface of a corresponding first electrode 301.

The second electrode 303 can be disposed on the organic light-emitting layer 302 and connected to the organic light-emitting layer 302. The organic light-emitting layer 302 can emit light of a corresponding color under the drive of the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 303. An isolation pillar layer may also be provided on the side of the pixel definition layer 304 away from the substrate 101, and the isolation pillar layer may include multiple isolation pillars (PS).

[0212] In some examples, the organic light-emitting layer 302 of the light-emitting element may include an emitting layer (EML) and one or more films selected from the following: a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transport layer (HTL), a hole block layer (HBL), an electron block layer (EBL), an electron injection layer (EIL), and an electron transport layer (ETL). Under the voltage drive of the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 303, the light-emitting properties of the organic material can be utilized to emit light at the required grayscale.

[0213] In some examples, the light-emitting layers of different colored light-emitting elements can be different. For example, a red light-emitting element includes a red light-emitting layer, a green light-emitting element includes a green light-emitting layer, and a blue light-emitting element includes a blue light-emitting layer. To reduce process complexity and improve yield, the hole injection layer and hole transport layer on one side of the light-emitting layer can be common layers, as can the electron injection layer and electron transport layer on the other side. In some examples, any one or more of the hole injection layer, hole transport layer, electron injection layer, and electron transport layer can be fabricated in a single process (single vapor deposition process or single inkjet printing process), and isolation can be achieved through surface steps of the formed film layers or through surface treatment. For example, any one or more of the hole injection layer, hole transport layer, electron injection layer, and electron transport layer corresponding to adjacent sub-pixels can be isolated. In some examples, the organic light-emitting layer can be formed by vapor deposition using a fine metal mask (FMM) or an open mask, or by inkjet printing.

[0214] In some examples, as shown in Figure 19, the encapsulation structure layer 400 may include a first encapsulation layer 4001, a second encapsulation layer 4002, and a third encapsulation layer 4003 stacked together. The first encapsulation layer 4001 and the third encapsulation layer 4003 may be made of inorganic materials, while the second encapsulation layer 4002 may be made of organic materials. The second encapsulation layer 4002 may be disposed between the first encapsulation layer 4001 and the third encapsulation layer 4003 to prevent external moisture from entering the light-emitting element. However, this embodiment is not limited to this. For example, the encapsulation structure layer may employ a five-layer stacked structure of inorganic / organic / inorganic / organic / inorganic.
