Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to a display technology, in particular to an array substrate, a display panel and a display device.
Background
With the development of display technology, the application of the pressure sensing function in the display device is more and more extensive. At present, pressure sensors for realizing pressure sensing functions mainly have two types: resistive pressure sensors and capacitive pressure sensors. Among them, the resistive pressure sensor is regarded by the industry because of its high sensitivity and low cost.
Generally, the pressure sensors are disposed at a peripheral frame of the display panel, and in order not to increase the width of the frame, the pressure sensors are disposed at a driving circuit region of the frame, for example, the pressure sensors are located between adjacent two shift registers. However, in order to avoid additional manufacturing processes, the pressure sensor and a certain film layer of the shift register are disposed on the same layer, and therefore, the shift registers on both sides of the pressure sensor need to be shifted in a direction away from the pressure sensor, thereby destroying the arrangement period of the shift registers, and further causing that the driving signal lines electrically connected to the shift registers need to be electrically connected to the signal lines corresponding to the display area through the winding. Moreover, when the driving signal is increased or the process size of the display panel is reduced, the complicated routing of the driving signal lines may not allow the signal to smoothly enter the display area, which may affect the display.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the array substrate includes a display area 100 and a non-display area 200 surrounding the display area 100; at least one side frame of the non-display area 200 includes a driving circuit area 201, the driving circuit area 201 may be configured with a gate driving circuit and a pressure sensor 10, the gate driving circuit includes a plurality of stages of shift registers 20, and the pressure sensor 10 is disposed between two adjacent shift registers 20. In this structure, due to the arrangement of the pressure sensor 10, the shift registers 20 on both sides of the pressure sensor 10 need to be shifted in a direction away from the pressure sensor 10, so that the arrangement period of the shift registers 20 is destroyed, and then the driving signal line 30 electrically connected to the shift registers needs to be electrically connected to the scanning line M1 corresponding to the display area 100 through a winding (bending), which causes the wiring of the driving signal line 30 to be complicated, and affects the transmission of the display signal.
In view of the foregoing problems, embodiments of the present invention provide an array substrate, a display panel and a display device. Fig. 3 is a schematic plan view of an area a in fig. 1 on an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 4 is a schematic sectional view taken along line A1-A2 in FIG. 3. As shown in fig. 3 and 4, an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
a substrate base plate 40 including a display area 100 and a non-display area 200 surrounding the display area 100;
a driving circuit region (not shown, refer to the corresponding region 201 in fig. 1), located in the non-display region 200 on the substrate 40, and having a driving circuit 21, wherein the driving circuit 21 is electrically connected to the display region 100 through a plurality of driving signal lines 31, for example, the driving circuit 21 can be electrically connected to the scanning lines or data lines of the display region 100;
at least one pressure sensor 10 on the substrate base plate 40 between the driving circuit region and the display region 100;
the pressure-sensitive signal lines 34 are electrically connected to the pressure sensor 10, and are used for inputting a pressure-sensitive reference signal to the pressure sensor 10 and outputting a pressure-sensitive signal from the pressure sensor 10, respectively.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the pressure sensor is arranged between the driving circuit area and the display area, so that the arrangement period of the driving circuit arranged in the driving circuit area is not influenced, and further the driving circuit and the pixels of the display area form corresponding periodic arrangement, so that the driving signal wires electrically connected with the output ends of the driving circuits can be linearly led into the display area, the problem of complex wiring of the driving signal wires is solved, the driving signals can be efficiently transmitted, and the display quality is improved.
Optionally, the driving circuit may be a gate driving circuit or a source driving circuit. In consideration of the complicated wiring on the source driving circuit side, the pressure sensor may be disposed between the gate driving circuit region and the display region. Correspondingly, when the driving circuit is a gate driving circuit, the driving circuit may include a plurality of stages of shift registers, each stage of shift register being electrically connected to at least one driving signal line; the driving signal lines are parallel to each other and are arranged periodically, namely, the pressure sensors positioned in the non-display area at the side of the grid driving circuit are all arranged between the grid driving circuit area and the display area, and each driving signal line can be directly led to the display area by the grid driving circuit without winding. Therefore, the problem of complex wiring of the driving signal lines is solved, and the display quality is further improved.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the driving signal is less or one pressure sensor can be arranged between two adjacent driving signal lines, the pressure sensor can be arranged between the two adjacent driving signal lines and on the same layer as the driving signal lines, at the moment, the pressure sensing signal line and the pressure sensor are arranged on different layers, and the pressure sensing signal line is electrically connected with the pressure sensor through the through hole so as to avoid short circuit between the pressure sensing signal line and the driving signal lines.
For example, when the driving signal is increased or the process size of the display panel is reduced, the pressure sensor and the pressure sensing signal line are located at different layers from the driving signal line. Optionally, the pressure sensor and the pressure sensing signal line are located on the same layer or different layers. Wherein, the pressure sensor and the pressure sensing signal wire can be respectively and independently prepared; optionally, the pressure sensor and the pressure-sensitive signal line are prepared in the same process as the film layer on the array substrate, that is, the pressure sensor and the pressure-sensitive signal line are located in the same layer as part of the film layer on the array substrate. For example, referring to fig. 4, the pressure sensor 10 and the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 are located in different layers from the driving signal line 31, and the pressure sensor 10 and the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 are located in different layers; referring to fig. 6, the pressure sensor 10 and the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 are located at different layers from the driving signal line 31, and the pressure sensor 10 and the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 are located at the same layer. The specific film layers of the pressure sensor 10, the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 and the driving signal line 31 are not limited in the embodiments of the present invention, and as long as the pressure sensor 10, the pressure-sensitive signal line 34 and the driving signal line 31 are located in different layers, the pressure sensor 10 can realize pressure sensing.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 3 and 4, the substrate 40 is a flexible substrate, the non-display area 200 includes a first area X and a second area Y sequentially distributed from the display area 100 to the non-display area 200, the driving circuit area is located in the second area Y, the second area Y is used for folding the driving circuit area to a side of the substrate 40 away from the pressure sensor 10, that is, the driving circuit area is folded to the back of the array substrate to realize a narrow frame, a dotted line between the first area X and the second area Y in fig. 3 is a folding axis 32, and the array substrate can be bent at the folding axis 32; in addition, if the pressure sensor 10 is disposed in the second area Y, the pressure sensor 10 cannot be deformed by the touch pressure applied to the display area 100 after the array substrate is folded, and at this time, the pressure sensor 10 cannot sense the touch pressure, so that at least a portion of the pressure sensor 10 is located in the first area X. Illustratively, referring to fig. 7, half of the pressure sensor 10 is located in the first region X, and half is located in the second region Y, and optionally, the portion of the pressure sensor 10 located in the first region X has two different main strain sensing directions to generate a deformation difference, so as to realize the sensing of the pressure. Alternatively, referring to fig. 3, in order to prevent the pressure sensors 10 from being broken when the array substrate is folded, the pressure sensors 10 are all disposed in the first region X, and at this time, as shown in fig. 5, after the array substrate is folded along the folding axis 32, the driving circuit 21 is folded to a side of the substrate away from the pressure sensors 10. Optionally, the pressure sensor 10 is as close to the display area as possible, which can improve the pressure sensing accuracy on one hand, and can compress the frame to be narrower on the other hand.
Optionally, the array substrate further includes a plurality of scan lines located in the display area, the driving signal lines and the scan lines are located in the same layer or different layers, the non-display area is further provided with scan signal output lines electrically connected with the driving circuit, first ends of the driving signal lines are electrically connected with the scan signal output lines, and second ends of the driving signal lines are electrically connected with the scan lines.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment shown in fig. 3 and fig. 4, the position of the pressure sensor 10 is not set, and the driving signal line 31 and the scanning line M1 are located on the same layer, that is, the driving signal line 31 and the scanning line M1 can be prepared by the same process. In another embodiment, referring to fig. 6, the driving signal line 31 and the scan line M1 are located on the same layer, that is, the driving signal line 31 and the scan line M1 can be prepared by the same process, which saves the process flow.
