Detailed Implementation

[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The implementation can be carried out in many different forms. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the methods and content can be varied in various forms 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. Without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this disclosure can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0043] The scale of the figures in this disclosure can be used as a reference in actual manufacturing processes, but is not limited thereto. For example, the aspect ratio of the channel, the thickness and spacing of each film layer, and the width and spacing of each signal line can be adjusted according to actual needs. The number of pixels in the display substrate and the number of sub-pixels in each pixel are not limited to the quantities shown in the figures. The figures described in this disclosure are only schematic diagrams of the structure, and one aspect of this disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values ​​shown in the figures.

[0044] The ordinal numbers “first,” “second,” and “third” used in this specification are used to avoid confusion among the constituent elements, not to limit their quantity.

[0045] In this specification, 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 in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. This is solely for the purpose of facilitating the description and simplification, and does not imply that the device or component 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 varied depending on the orientation of each constituent element being described. Therefore, the use of terms not limited to those described in the specification may be appropriately replaced as needed.

[0046] In this specification, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they may refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; a direct connection, an indirect connection via an intermediate component, or a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of these terms in this disclosure based on the specific circumstances.

[0047] In this specification, 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 (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and the source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. Note that in this specification, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.

[0048] In this specification, the first electrode can be the drain electrode and the second electrode can be the source electrode, or vice versa. In cases where transistors with opposite polarities are used or the current direction changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may sometimes be interchanged. Therefore, in this specification, the "source electrode" and "drain electrode" can be interchanged, and the "source terminal" and "drain terminal" can be interchanged.

[0049] In this specification, "electrical connection" includes the situation where components are connected together by elements that have a certain electrical function. There are no particular limitations on what constitutes an "electrical function," as long as it allows for the transmission and reception of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "electrical functions" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other elements with various functions.

[0050] In this specification, "parallel" refers to the state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than or equal to -10° and less than 10°, and therefore also includes the state where the angle is greater than or equal to -5° and less than 5°. Similarly, "perpendicular" refers to the state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than or equal to 80° and less than 100°, and therefore also includes the state where the angle is greater than or equal to 85° and less than 95°.

[0051] In this specification, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may sometimes be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may sometimes be replaced with "insulating layer."

[0052] In this specification, triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons, or hexagons are not strictly defined; they can be approximate triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons, or hexagons. Small deformations due to tolerances are possible, as are chamfered corners, curved edges, and other variations.

[0053] In this disclosure, “about” means a value that is not strictly limited and allows for process and measurement errors.

[0054] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a display device. As shown in Figure 1, the OLED display device may include a timing controller, a data driver, a scan driver, and a pixel array. The timing controller is connected to both the data driver and the scan driver. The data driver is connected to multiple data signal lines (D1 to Dn), and the scan driver is connected to multiple scan signal lines (S1 to Sm), where n and m can be natural numbers. The pixel array may include multiple sub-pixels Pxij, each sub-pixel Pxij being connected to a corresponding data signal line and a corresponding scan signal line, where i and j can be natural numbers. At least one sub-pixel Pxij may include at least a circuit unit and a light-emitting unit. The circuit unit may include at least a pixel driving circuit, which is connected to both the scan signal line and the data signal line.

A sub-pixel Pxij may refer to a sub-pixel whose pixel driving circuit is connected to the i-th scan signal line and the j-th data signal line. In an exemplary embodiment, the timing controller can provide grayscale values ​​and control signals of specifications suitable for the data driver to the data driver, and can provide clock signals, scan start signals, etc., of specifications suitable for the scan driver to the scan driver. The data driver 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 driver can sample grayscale values ​​using a clock signal and apply data voltages corresponding to the grayscale values ​​to data signal lines D1 to Dn on a pixel-by-pixel basis. The scan driver can generate scan signals to be provided to scan signal lines S1, S2, S3, ..., Sm by receiving clock signals, scan start signals, etc., from the timing controller. For example, the scan driver can sequentially provide scan signals with on-level pulses to scan signal lines S1 to Sm. For example, the scan driver 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. In an exemplary embodiment, the pixel array may be disposed on a display substrate.

The circuit unit, the color filter unit, and the light-emitting unit constitute a sub-pixel. In the following text, sub-pixel will be used to refer to the circuit unit, the color filter unit, and the light-emitting unit.

[0063] Figure 3 shows the equivalent circuit diagram of a pixel driving circuit in a repeating unit. As shown in Figure 3, at least one repeating unit may include four pixel driving circuits, which can be arranged in a horizontal parallel manner, and the pixel driving circuit can be a 3T1C structure.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one pixel driving circuit may include three transistors (first transistor T1, second transistor T2 and third transistor T3) and one storage capacitor C.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the first transistor T1 to the third transistor T3 can be either P-type transistors or N-type transistors. Using the same type of transistor in the pixel driving circuit can simplify the process flow, reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the display panel, and improve the product yield. In some possible implementations, the first transistor T1 to the third transistor T3 may include both P-type and N-type transistors.

[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, the first transistor T1 to the third transistor T3 can be low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) thin-film transistors (TFTs), or oxide thin-film transistors (OPTs), or a combination of both. The active layer of the LTPS TFT is made of low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS), while the active layer of the OPT TFT is made of oxide. LTPS TFTs have advantages such as high mobility and fast charging, while OPTs have advantages such as low leakage current. Integrating LTPS and OPTs onto a single display substrate, i.e., an LTPS+Oxide (LTPO) display substrate, leverages the advantages of both, enabling low-frequency driving, reducing power consumption, and improving display quality.

The "patterning process" described in this disclosure includes, for metallic, inorganic, or transparent conductive materials, processes such as depositing a film layer, coating the film layer with photoresist, mask exposure, development, etching, and photoresist stripping; for organic materials, processes include coating the organic material, mask exposure, and development.

This disclosure does not limit the methods used. A "thin film" refers to a thin film made of a certain material on a substrate using deposition, coating, or other processes. If the "thin film" does not require a patterning process during the entire fabrication process, it can also be called a "layer." If the "thin film" requires a patterning process during the entire fabrication process, it is called a "thin film" before the patterning process and a "layer" after the patterning process. The "layer" after the patterning process contains at least one "pattern." The phrase "A and B are arranged in the same layer" in this disclosure means that A and B are formed simultaneously through the same patterning process, and the "thickness" of the film layer is the dimension of the film layer in the direction perpendicular to the display substrate. In the exemplary embodiments of this disclosure, "the orthographic projection of B is within the range of the orthographic projection of A" or "the orthographic projection of A includes the orthographic projection of B" means that the boundary of the orthographic projection of B falls within the boundary range of the orthographic projection of A, or the boundary of the orthographic projection of A overlaps with the boundary of the orthographic projection of B.

The first region 32-1 of the second active layer may include at least a first portion 32A and a second portion 32B, and the second portion 32B may be located between the first portion 32A and the channel region of the second active layer. The orthographic projection of the second portion 32B onto the substrate may be within the range of the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the first portion 32A onto the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate.

[0145] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of a portion of the first portion 32A (the region near the second portion 32B) onto the substrate overlaps with the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate, while the orthographic projection of another portion of the first portion 32A (the region away from the second portion 32B) onto the substrate does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate, thus the first portion 32A includes a ramp structure.

[0146] In an exemplary embodiment, the first portion 32A may have a first width B1, and the second portion 32B may have a second width B2. The first width B1 may be greater than the second width B2, and the first width B1 and the second width B2 may be dimensions in the second direction Y.

[0147] In an exemplary embodiment, the semiconductor layer is relatively thin. If the first conductive layer is relatively thick, the climbing structure of the semiconductor layer climbing onto the first conductive layer is prone to semiconductor layer breakage, leading to defects. This disclosure improves the climbing ability of the first portion 32A by widening the climbing structure, thereby effectively preventing semiconductor layer breakage and reducing defects.

[0148] In an exemplary embodiment, in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3, the orthogonal projection of the second active layer 32 onto the substrate can be located within the range of the orthogonal projection of the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate. That is, the first region 32-1, the second region 32-2, and the channel region of the second active layer all overlap with the shielding electrode 21. In this way, the first region of the second active layer in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 does not contain a ramp structure, which can minimize the risk of semiconductor layer breakage and reduce the occurrence of defects.

[0149] This disclosure eliminates the ramp structure in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3, and widens the ramp structure in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4. This not only avoids defects but also increases the thickness of the first conductive layer, improves the shielding capability of the shielding electrode, and ensures the stability of the pixel driving circuit.

[0150] In an exemplary embodiment, the first region 33-1 of the third active layer may be located on the side of the channel region away from the second electrode plate 35, and the second region 33-2 of the third active layer may be located on the side of the channel region closer to the second electrode plate 35. The orthographic projection of the first region 33-1 of the third active layer on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the compensation connection block 23-1 of the compensation connection line 23 on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the second region 33-2 of the third active layer 33 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the interlayer connection electrode 22 on the substrate.

[0151] In an exemplary embodiment, the channel region of the third active layer may have a third width, and the first region 33-1 and the second region 33-2 of the third active layer may have a fourth width, which may be greater than the third width. The third width and the fourth width may be dimensions in the first direction X.

[0152] In an exemplary embodiment, the first region and the second region of the third active layer also include a ramp structure. This disclosure enhances the ramping capability by setting the widths of the first region and the second region of the third active layer to be greater than the width of the channel region of the third active layer, thereby widening the ramp structure. This effectively prevents semiconductor layer breakage and reduces the occurrence of defects.

[0153] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one repeating unit, the semiconductor layers in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit, and the semiconductor layers in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit.

[0154] In an exemplary embodiment, the semiconductor layer may be a metal oxide, such as an oxide containing indium and tin, an oxide containing tungsten and indium, an oxide containing tungsten, indium, and zinc, an oxide containing titanium and indium, an oxide containing titanium, indium, and tin, an oxide containing indium and zinc, an oxide containing silicon, indium, and tin, an oxide containing indium, gallium, and zinc, etc. The semiconductor layer may be a single layer, a double layer, or a multilayer.

[0155] (4) Forming a second conductive layer pattern. In an exemplary embodiment, forming a second conductive layer pattern may include: sequentially depositing a second insulating film and a second conductive film on a substrate on which the aforementioned pattern is formed; patterning the second conductive film using a patterning process to form a second insulating layer covering the semiconductor layer; and a second conductive layer pattern disposed on the second insulating layer, as shown in Figures 9A and 9B, where Figure 9B is a planar schematic diagram of the second conductive layer in Figure 9A. In an exemplary embodiment, the second conductive layer may be referred to as a gate metal (GATE) layer.

[0156] In an exemplary embodiment, the second conductive layer pattern in each sub-pixel of the display substrate may include at least a scan signal line 41 and a second gate electrode 42.

[0157] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape of the scan signal line 41 can be a straight line or a broken line extending along the first direction X, and it can be located between the compensation connection line 23 and the interlayer connection electrode 22. The orthographic projection of the scan signal line 41 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projections of the first active layer 31 and the third active layer 33 on the substrate. The area where the scan signal line 41 intersects with the first active layer 31 can serve as the gate electrode of the first transistor T1, and the area where the scan signal line 41 intersects with the third active layer 33 can serve as the gate electrode of the third transistor T3.

[0158] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one sub-pixel, a scan signal line 41 can simultaneously serve as the gate electrode of the first transistor T1 and the gate electrode of the third transistor T3. The scan signal line 41 can control the simultaneous conduction or simultaneous deactivation of the first transistor T1 and the third transistor T3 in the sub-pixel.

[0159] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one repeating unit, a scan signal line 41 can simultaneously serve as the gate electrode of the four first transistors T1 and the gate electrode of the four third transistors T3 in the four sub-pixels. The scan signal line 41 can control the simultaneous on or off of the four first transistors T1 and the four third transistors T3 in the repeating unit.

[0160] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one pixel row of multiple sub-pixels, a scan signal line 41 can simultaneously serve as the gate electrode of multiple first transistors T1 and multiple third transistors T3, and the scan signal line 41 can control the simultaneous on or off of multiple first transistors T1 and multiple third transistors T3 in the pixel row.

[0161] In an exemplary embodiment, the second gate electrode 42 may be in the shape of an "I" or an "L" and may be disposed on the side of the second electrode plate 35 away from the scan signal line 41. The orthographic projection of the second gate electrode 42 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second active layer 32 on the substrate. The overlapping area forms the channel region 44 of the second transistor T2. The second gate electrode 42 may serve as the gate electrode of the second transistor T2.

[0162] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the second gate electrode 42 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second electrode plate 35 on the substrate.

[0163] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape of the second gate electrode 42 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be "I" shaped, and the shape of the second gate electrode 42 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can be "L" shaped.

[0164] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one sub-pixel, the channel region 44 of the second transistor T2 may have a channel length L, which may be a dimension in the first direction X.

[0165] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one repeating unit, the second conductive layer may further include two auxiliary power lines 43. The auxiliary power lines 43 may be strip-shaped extending along the second direction Y. The two auxiliary power lines 43 may be respectively disposed in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4. The auxiliary power lines 43 are configured to connect with the subsequently formed first power lines to form a double-layer trace.

[0166] In an exemplary embodiment, the auxiliary power line 43 in the first sub-pixel P1 may be located on the side opposite to the first direction X of the second electrode plate 35, and the auxiliary power line 43 in the fourth sub-pixel P4 may be located on the side of the first direction X of the second electrode plate 35.

[0167] In an exemplary embodiment, the process further includes a conductor-enhancing process. The conductor-enhancing process involves, after forming the second conductive layer pattern, performing plasma treatment using the second conductive layer as a shield. The semiconductor layer shielded by the second conductive layer serves as the channel region of the transistor, while the semiconductor layer not shielded by the second conductive layer is processed into a conductor-enhanced layer, forming a conductor-enhanced second electrode 35 and conductor-enhanced source / drain regions.

[0168] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one repeating unit, the second conductive layers in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit, and the second conductive layers in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit.

[0169] (5) Forming a third insulating layer pattern. In an exemplary embodiment, forming a third insulating layer pattern may include: depositing a third insulating film on a substrate on which the aforementioned pattern is formed, and patterning the third insulating film using a patterning process to form a third insulating layer covering the second conductive layer, wherein a plurality of vias are provided on the third insulating layer, as shown in FIG10.

[0170] In an exemplary embodiment, the plurality of vias in each sub-pixel of the display substrate may include at least: a first via V1 to an eighth via V8.

[0171] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the first via V1 onto the substrate is within the range of the orthographic projection of the first region of the first active layer onto the substrate. The third and second insulating layers within the first via V1 are etched away, exposing the surface of the first region of the first active layer. The first via V1 is configured to connect subsequently formed data signal lines to the first region of the first active layer through the via.

[0172] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the second via V2 onto the substrate is within the range of the orthographic projection of the second region of the first active layer onto the substrate. The third insulating layer and the second insulating layer within the second via V2 are etched away, exposing the surface of the second region of the first active layer. The second via V2 is configured to connect a subsequently formed third connection electrode to the second region of the first active layer through the via.

[0173] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the third via V3 on the substrate is within the range of the orthographic projection of the first region of the second active layer on the substrate. The third insulating layer and the second insulating layer within the third via V3 are etched away, exposing the surface of the first region of the second active layer. The third via V3 is configured to allow a subsequently formed first power line or power connection electrode to be connected to the first region of the second active layer through the via.

[0174] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the fourth via V4 onto the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projections of the second region of the second active layer and the shielding electrode 21 onto the substrate, and the fourth via V4 simultaneously exposes the surfaces of the second region of the second active layer and the shielding electrode 21. The fourth via V4 is a transition via consisting of two half-holes. In one half-hole, the third and second insulating layers are etched away, exposing the surface of the second region of the first active layer; in the other half-hole, the third, second, and first insulating layers are etched away, exposing the surface of the shielding electrode 21. In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth via V4 is configured to allow a subsequently formed second connection electrode to be simultaneously connected to the second region of the second active layer and the shielding electrode 21 through this via.

[0175] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the fifth via V5 onto the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projections of the first region of the third active layer and the compensation connection block 23-1 of the compensation connection line 23 onto the substrate. The fifth via V5 simultaneously exposes the surfaces of the first region of the third active layer and the compensation connection block 23-1. The fifth via V5 is a transition via consisting of two half-holes. The third and second insulating layers within one half-hole are etched away, exposing the surface of the first region of the third active layer. The third, second, and first insulating layers within the other half-hole are etched away, exposing the surface of the compensation connection block 23-1. In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth via V5 is configured to allow a subsequently formed fifth connection electrode to be simultaneously connected to the first region of the third active layer and the compensation connection block 23-1 through this via.

[0176] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the sixth via V6 onto the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projections of the second region of the third active layer and the interlayer connection electrode 22 onto the substrate. The sixth via V6 simultaneously exposes the surfaces of the second region of the third active layer and the interlayer connection electrode 22. The sixth via V6 is a transition via consisting of two half-holes. In one half-hole, the third and second insulating layers are etched away, exposing the surface of the second region of the third active layer. In the other half-hole, the third, second, and first insulating layers are etched away, exposing the surface of the interlayer connection electrode 22. In an exemplary embodiment, the sixth via V6 is configured to allow a subsequently formed fourth connection electrode to be simultaneously connected to the second region of the third active layer and the interlayer connection electrode 22 through this via.

[0177] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the seventh via V7 onto the substrate lies within the range of the orthographic projections of the second electrode 35 and the second gate electrode 42 onto the substrate. The seventh via V7 simultaneously exposes the surfaces of both the second electrode 35 and the second gate electrode 42. The seventh via V7 is a transition via consisting of two half-holes. In one half-hole, the third and second insulating layers are etched away, exposing the surface of the second electrode 35; in the other half-hole, the third insulating layer is etched away, exposing the surface of the second gate electrode 42. In this exemplary embodiment, the seventh via V7 is configured to allow a subsequently formed first connection electrode to be simultaneously connected to the second electrode 35 and the second gate electrode 42 through this via.

[0178] In an exemplary embodiment, in the seventh via V7, the orthographic projection of the second gate electrode 42 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second electrode 35 on the substrate. Studies have shown that if the second electrode 35 and the second gate electrode 42 within the seventh via V7 do not overlap, over-etching is likely to occur during the dry etching process of the via. Over-etching exposes the shielding electrode 21, causing the subsequently formed first connection electrode to connect with the shielding electrode 21, resulting in a short circuit and causing dark spot defects. This disclosure effectively avoids short circuits and dark spot defects by ensuring that the second electrode 35 and the second gate electrode 42 overlap within the first transition via.

[0179] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the eighth via V8 on the substrate is within the range of the orthographic projection of the power connection block 24-1 of the power connection line 24 on the substrate. The third insulating layer, the second insulating layer and the first insulating layer in the eighth via V8 are etched away to expose the surface of the power connection block 24-1. The eighth via V8 is configured to allow the subsequently formed first power line or power connection electrode to be connected to the power connection block 24-1 through the via.

[0180] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one repeating unit may further include a ninth via V9. The orthographic projection of the ninth via V9 onto the substrate lies within the range of the orthographic projection of the auxiliary power line 43 onto the substrate. The third insulating layer within the ninth via V9 is etched away, exposing the surface of the auxiliary power line 43. The ninth via V9 is configured to allow a subsequently formed first power line to be connected to the auxiliary power line 43 through the via.

[0181] In an exemplary embodiment, a ninth via V9 can be disposed in either the first sub-pixel P1 or the fourth sub-pixel P4. Multiple ninth vias V9 can be present to increase connection reliability.

[0182] (6) Forming a third conductive layer pattern. In an exemplary embodiment, forming the third conductive layer may include: depositing a third conductive thin film on a substrate on which the aforementioned pattern is formed, and patterning the third conductive thin film using a patterning process to form a third conductive layer disposed on a third insulating layer, as shown in Figures 11A and 11B, where Figure 11B is a planar schematic diagram of the third conductive layer in Figure 11A. In an exemplary embodiment, the third conductive layer may be referred to as a source / drain metal (SD) layer.

[0183] In an exemplary embodiment, the third conductive layer pattern in each sub-pixel of the display substrate includes at least: a first connecting electrode 51, a second connecting electrode 52, a third connecting electrode 53, a fourth connecting electrode 54, a fifth connecting electrode 55, and a data signal line 61.

[0184] In an exemplary embodiment, the first connecting electrode 51 can be a strip extending along the second direction Y. The first connecting electrode 51 is connected to the second electrode plate 35 and the second gate electrode 42 simultaneously through the seventh via V7, so that the gate electrode of the second transistor T2 and the second electrode plate 35 of the storage capacitor have the same potential. Since the second gate electrode 42 and the second electrode plate 35 overlap in the seventh via V7, the seventh via V7 will not be over-etched and expose the shielding electrode 21, thus effectively avoiding short circuits between the second gate electrode 42 and the second electrode plate 35 and the shielding electrode 21, and effectively avoiding dark spot defects.

[0185] In an exemplary embodiment, the second connection electrode 52 can be block-shaped (e.g., rectangular). The corners of the rectangle can be chamfered, raised, or grooved, and the edges can be zigzag lines. The second connection electrode 52 is connected to both the second region of the second active layer and the shielding electrode 21 via the fourth via V4. Since the shielding electrode 21 overlaps with the connecting plate 12, and the connecting plate 12 is connected to the first electrode plate 11, the second connection electrode 52 ensures that the second electrode of the second transistor T2 and the first electrode plate 11 of the storage capacitor have the same potential at the second node. In an exemplary embodiment, the second connection electrode 52 can serve as the anode connection electrode of this disclosure.

[0186] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one sub-pixel, the orthographic projection of the second connection electrode 52 on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the channel region of the second transistor T2 on the substrate. The second connection electrode 52 can block the second transistor T2 from above, preventing light from affecting the channel, reducing leakage current, and thus preventing the influence of light on the characteristics of the oxide transistor.

[0187] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one sub-pixel, the overlapping region of the orthographic projection of the second connection electrode 52 onto the substrate and the orthographic projection of the channel region of the second transistor T2 onto the substrate may have a first length L1, which may be approximately 0.4L to 0.6L, and the first length L1 may be a dimension in the first direction X.

[0188] In an exemplary embodiment, the third connecting electrode 53 can be block-shaped (e.g., rectangular), and is connected to the second region of the first active layer through the second via V2. Since the second region of the first active layer is connected to the second electrode 35 through the active connecting strip 34, the third connecting electrode 53 enables the second electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second electrode 35 of the storage capacitor to have the same potential at the first node.

[0189] In an exemplary embodiment, since the first connection electrode 51 realizes that the gate electrode of the second transistor T2 and the second plate 35 of the storage capacitor have the same potential, and the third connection electrode 53 realizes that the second electrode of the first transistor T1 and the second plate 35 of the storage capacitor have the same potential, the first connection electrode 51 and the third connection electrode 53 realize that the second electrode of the first transistor T1, the gate electrode of the second transistor T2 and the second plate 35 of the storage capacitor have the same potential, that is, the potential of the first node N1 in the pixel driving circuit.

[0190] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth connection electrode 54 can be a strip shape extending along the second direction Y. The fourth connection electrode 54 is simultaneously connected to the second region of the third active layer and the interlayer connection electrode 22 through the sixth via V6. Since the interlayer connection electrode 22 is connected to the connection line 13, and the connection line 13 is connected to the first electrode plate 11, the fourth connection electrode 54 enables the second electrode of the third transistor T3 and the first electrode plate 11 of the storage capacitor to have the same potential.

[0191] In an exemplary embodiment, since the second connection electrode 52 enables the second electrode of the second transistor T2 and the first plate 11 of the storage capacitor to have the same potential, and the fourth connection electrode 54 enables the second electrode of the third transistor T3 and the first plate 11 of the storage capacitor to have the same potential, the second connection electrode 52 and the fourth connection electrode 54 enable the second electrode of the second transistor T2, the second electrode of the third transistor T3 and the first plate 11 of the storage capacitor to have the same potential, that is, the potential of the second node N2 in the pixel driving circuit.

[0192] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth connection electrode 55 can be a strip shape extending along the second direction Y. The fifth connection electrode 55 is connected to both the first region of the third active layer and the compensation connection line 23 through the fifth via V5. Since the compensation connection line 23 is configured to be connected to the compensation signal line, the fifth connection electrode 55 enables the compensation signal line to write the compensation signal to the first pole of the third transistor T3 of each sub-pixel.

[0193] In an exemplary embodiment, the data signal line 61 can be a zigzag line extending along the second direction Y of the main body. The data signal line 61 is connected to the first region of the first active layer through the first via V1 in each sub-pixel, so that the data signal line 61 writes the data signal into the first pole of the first transistor T1 in each sub-pixel.

[0194] In an exemplary embodiment, in the first sub-pixel P1 and the third sub-pixel P3, the data signal line 61 can be disposed on one side of the storage capacitor (first electrode 11 and second electrode 35) in the first direction X. In the second sub-pixel P2 and the fourth sub-pixel P4, the data signal line 61 can be disposed on the side opposite to the first direction X of the storage capacitor. The data signal line 61 is a zigzag shape, which not only facilitates the layout of the pixel structure but also reduces parasitic capacitance.

[0195] In an exemplary embodiment, the third conductive layer of at least one repeating unit may further include a power connection electrode 56, a first power line 62, and a compensation signal line 63.

[0196] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape of the first power line 62 can be a straight line or a broken line extending along the second direction Y. On one hand, the first power line 62 is connected to the first region of the second active layer in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 through the third via V3, enabling the first power line 62 to write the first power signal into the first terminal of the second transistor T2 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4. On the other hand, the first power line 62 is connected to the power connection block 24-1 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 through the eighth via V8, enabling the transmission of the first power signal to the power connection line 24. The power connection line 24 can then transmit the first power signal to the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 respectively. Furthermore, the first power line 62 is connected to the auxiliary power line 43 through the ninth via V9. The first power line 62 and the auxiliary power line 43 form a double-layer trace, which ensures the reliability of the first power signal transmission and reduces the resistance of the first power line.

[0197] In an exemplary embodiment, the first power line 62 is disposed on the side of the first sub-pixel P1 away from the second sub-pixel P2 and the side of the fourth sub-pixel P4 away from the third sub-pixel P3, which not only facilitates the layout of the pixel structure but also reduces parasitic capacitance.

[0198] In an exemplary embodiment, the power connection electrode 56 can be a strip extending along the second direction Y, and can be respectively disposed in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3. The first end of the power connection electrode 56 is connected to the first region of the second active layer through the third via V3 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3, and the second end of the power connection electrode 56 is connected to the power connection block 24-1 through the eighth via V8 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3. Since the power connection block 24-1 is connected to the power connection line 24, and the power connection line 24 is connected to the first power line 62, the first power line 62 writes the first power signal into the first electrode of the second transistor T2 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3.

[0199] In an exemplary embodiment, the first power line 62 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be connected to the first region of the second active layer through the third via V3, and simultaneously connected to one end of the power connection line 24 through the eighth via V8. The power connection electrode 56 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can be connected to the first region of the second active layer through the third via V3, and simultaneously connected to the other end of the power connection line 24. That is, the first power line 62 in the first sub-pixel P1 is connected to the first region of the second active layer in the second sub-pixel P2 through the power connection line 24 and the power connection electrode 56, and the first power line 62 in the fourth sub-pixel P4 is connected to the first region of the second active layer in the third sub-pixel P3 through the power connection line 24 and the power connection electrode 56. Thus, the first power line 62 in the first sub-pixel P1 can provide power signals to the pixel driving circuits in the first sub-pixel P1 and the second sub-pixel P2, and the first power line 62 in the fourth sub-pixel P4 can provide power signals to the pixel driving circuits in the third sub-pixel P3 and the fourth sub-pixel P4. This disclosure achieves the writing of power signals into the second transistor T2 of four sub-pixels by setting two power connection lines 24 extending along the first direction X and two first power lines 62 extending along the second direction Y in the repeating unit, forming a one-to-two structure of the first power lines.

[0200] In an exemplary embodiment, the compensation signal line 63 can be a straight line or a broken line extending along the second direction Y of the main body, and can be disposed between the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3. Two compensation connecting strips 64 can be disposed on the compensation signal line 63, and the two compensation connecting strips 64 can be respectively disposed on both sides of the compensation signal line 63 in the first direction X. The first ends of the two compensation connecting strips 64 are connected to the compensation signal line 63, and the second ends of the two compensation connecting strips 64 are respectively connected to the fifth connecting electrodes 55 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3. Since one compensation connecting line 23 is connected to the first electrode of the third transistor T3 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the second sub-pixel P2 respectively through the fifth connecting electrode 55, and the other compensation connecting line 23 is connected to the first electrode of the third transistor T3 in the third sub-pixel P3 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 respectively through the fifth connecting electrode 55, one compensation signal line 63 can provide compensation signals to the pixel driving circuits of four sub-pixels, forming a one-to-four structure of the compensation signal line.

[0201] This disclosure achieves the following by setting a compensation signal line 63 extending along the second direction Y and two compensation connection lines 23 extending along the first direction X in the repeating unit: a compensation signal line 63 writes the compensation signal into the third transistor T3 of the four sub-pixels respectively. This ensures that the RC delay of the compensation signal is basically the same before it is written into the transistor, thus ensuring display uniformity.

[0202] In an exemplary embodiment, in at least one repeating unit, the compensation signal line 63, the fifth connecting electrode 55 and the compensation connecting strip 64 in the second sub-pixel P2, and the fifth connecting electrode 55 and the compensation connecting strip 64 in the third sub-pixel P3 can be an integral structure that is interconnected.

[0203] In an exemplary embodiment, the third conductive layers in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit, and the third conductive layers in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can also be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit. For example, the positions and shapes of the first connecting electrode 51 to the fifth connecting electrode 55, the power connecting electrode 56, the first power line 62, and the data signal line 61 in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4 can be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit. Similarly, the positions and shapes of the first connecting electrode 51 to the fifth connecting electrode 55, the power connecting electrode 56, the first power line 62, and the data signal line 61 in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3 can also be arranged substantially symmetrically with respect to the center line of the repeating unit.

[0204] (7) Forming a color filter structure layer pattern.

[0223] In an exemplary embodiment, the first to fourth blocking blocks 81, which are made of red colored film material, can cover the channel region of the second transistor T2 and block the second transistor T2 from above. By utilizing the characteristic of the red colored film layer to absorb short-wavelength light, the blocking effect can be improved, the light can be prevented from affecting the channel, the leakage current can be reduced, and the influence of light on the characteristics of the oxide transistor can be avoided, thus effectively ensuring the electrical performance of the second transistor T2.

[0224] In an exemplary embodiment, the second connection electrode 52 is configured to connect to the subsequently formed anode via an anode via. This disclosure, by setting the second connection electrode 52 to overlap a portion (approximately half) of the channel region of the second transistor T2, and the first to fourth blocking blocks 84 to overlap another portion (approximately half) of the channel region of the second transistor T2, and ensuring that the first to fourth blocking blocks 84 do not overlap with the second connection electrode 52, not only effectively blocks the channel region of the second transistor T2, but also maintains a certain distance between the first to fourth blocking blocks 81 and the anode via, preventing the color filter from falling into the anode via and causing the connection between the anode and the second connection electrode 52 to fail.

[0225] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape of the fifth blocking block 85 can be block-shaped (such as rectangular), the corners of the rectangular shape can be chamfered, protruded or grooved, the edge of the rectangular shape can be a broken line, and it can be set in each sub-pixel.

That is, the material of the fifth blocking block 85 among the first sub-pixel P1 to the fourth sub-pixel P4 is the same as the material of the second filter layer 72. By utilizing the characteristic of the red color film layer to absorb short-wavelength light, the channel regions of the first transistor T1 and the third transistor T3 can be blocked from above, so as to avoid the light from affecting the channel, reduce the leakage current, and thus avoid the influence of light on the characteristics of the oxide transistor.

[0231] In an exemplary embodiment, the plurality of vias in each sub-pixel of the display substrate may include at least an eleventh via V11.

[0232] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the eleventh via V11 onto the substrate lies within the range of the orthographic projection of the second connecting electrode 52 onto the substrate.

The eleventh via V11 is configured to allow a subsequently formed anode to be connected to the second connecting electrode 52 through this via. In an exemplary embodiment, the eleventh via V11 can serve as the anode via of this disclosure.

[0233] In an exemplary embodiment, this process uses a single patterning process to simultaneously form vias on the fourth insulating layer and the planarization layer. That is, the fourth insulating layer and the planarization layer share a single mask process, which effectively reduces the number of patterning processes.

In an exemplary embodiment, forming a second transparent conductive layer pattern may include: depositing a second transparent conductive film on a substrate on which the aforementioned pattern is formed, and patterning the second transparent conductive film using a patterning process to form a second transparent conductive layer pattern disposed on a planarization layer, as shown in FIG14.

[0237] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the anode in each sub-pixel onto the substrate includes the orthographic projections of the first and second electrodes in that sub-pixel onto the substrate. Since the first electrode and the anode have a potential at a second node, and the second electrode has a potential at a first node, the first electrode with the potential at the second node and the second electrode with the potential at the first node form a first capacitor, and the anode with the potential at the second node and the second electrode with the potential at the first node form a second capacitor. The first and second capacitors are connected in parallel, and the parallel structure of the first and second capacitors constitutes a complete storage capacitor. Since the first electrode and the anode are made of transparent conductive material, and the second electrode is made of transparent metal oxide, the storage capacitor is a transparent capacitor. This disclosure utilizes a first transparent conductive layer, a semiconductor layer, and a second transparent conductive layer to form a parallel structure of the first and second capacitors. This parallel structure of the first and second capacitors constitutes a complete storage capacitor, which can effectively increase the capacitance value of the storage capacitor and reduce the electrode area while maintaining the capacitance value, thus effectively reducing the occupied area.

In a direction perpendicular to the substrate, the cross-sectional shape of the pixel opening K can be rectangular or trapezoidal, etc.

[0242] In an exemplary embodiment, the shape and area of ​​the pixel openings of the four sub-pixels can be the same, or the shape and area of ​​the pixel openings of the four sub-pixels can be different, in order to adapt to the transmittance of different sub-pixel filters, so that the light-emitting devices of the four sub-pixels can emit the same brightness at different currents, thereby maximizing the lifespan of the four sub-pixel light-emitting devices and ensuring the product lifespan.

[0243] In an exemplary embodiment, subsequent fabrication processes may include: forming an organic light-emitting layer using vapor deposition or inkjet printing; the organic light-emitting layer being connected to an anode through pixel openings; forming a cathode on the organic light-emitting layer; and connecting the cathode to the organic light-emitting layer.

They can be single-layer, multi-layer, or composite layers. The planarization layer can be made of organic materials, such as resin, and the pixel definition layer can be made of polyimide, acrylic, or polyethylene terephthalate.

[0247] The exemplary embodiments of this disclosure show that by providing an anode connection electrode to shield the second transistor T2 from above, the display substrate can avoid the influence of light on the channel region of the second transistor T2, reduce leakage current, thereby avoiding the influence of light on the characteristics of the oxide second transistor T2 and improving the driving performance of the pixel driving circuit.

[0248] This disclosure provides a shielding structure in the color filter structure layer, which shields the second transistor T2 from above. This further prevents light from affecting the channel region of the second transistor T2, reduces leakage current, avoids the influence of light on the characteristics of the oxide second transistor T2, and further improves the driving performance of the pixel driving circuit.

[0249] This disclosure ensures that the orthographic projection of the shielding structure on the substrate does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the anode via on the substrate, thus maintaining a certain distance between the shielding structure and the anode via, which can effectively prevent the connection failure between the anode and the second connecting electrode.

[0250] This disclosure eliminates the ramp structure of the semiconductor layer in the second sub-pixel P2 and the third sub-pixel P3, and widens the ramp structure of the semiconductor layer in the first sub-pixel P1 and the fourth sub-pixel P4. This not only minimizes the occurrence of defects, but also increases the thickness of the first conductive layer, improves the shielding capability of the shielding electrode, and ensures the stability of the pixel driving circuit.

The fifth blocking block can cover the channel regions of the first transistor T1 and the third transistor T3.

[0252] This disclosure employs a transparent storage capacitor, which consists of a first transparent conductive layer and a transparent semiconductor layer. Since light can pass through the transparent storage capacitor, the storage capacitor can be positioned within the pixel aperture, effectively increasing the capacitance of the storage capacitor and thus effectively increasing the pixel aperture ratio.
