The invention provides a
display device which comprises a display panel and a driving
chip, the display panel comprises an array substrate, the array substrate comprises a
semiconductor layer and a gate layer, a photosensitive
diode is arranged in the array substrate and comprises a PN junction
diode composed of the
semiconductor layer and the gate layer, and a
metal wire is electrically connected with the photosensitive
diode. The driving
chip is electrically connected with the
metal wire, and the driving
chip is used for sending a sampling
signal to the photosensitive diode, receiving a sensing
signal of the photosensitive diode, generating ambient light brightness information according to the sensing
signal, and adjusting the brightness of the display panel according to the ambient light brightness information. According to the display panel, the photosensitive diodes are integrated into the array substrate of the display panel, independent
light sensing sensors do not need to be arranged on the periphery of the front-facing camera, the
peripheral space of the front-facing camera is released, a camera with a larger size can be arranged, meanwhile, the cost of photosensitive components is reduced, and the display efficiency is improved. And the sensitivity and the response speed of sensing the ambient light are improved.
