The conventional liquid crystal display panel includes an array substrate, a color filter substrate, and a liquid crystal layer located between the array substrate and the color filter substrate. The liquid crystal layer has a part of impurity particles in addition to liquid crystal molecules, and the impurity particles may include positive ions and negative ions.
In the display process, under the action of an electric field generated between a pixel electrode and a common electrode in a display panel, liquid crystal molecules deflect, meanwhile, impurity particles are also gathered on an alignment layer formed by Polyimide (PI), when the impurities are gathered more, because the impurity particles move slowly, after the electric field generated by the pixel electrode and the common electrode disappears, the gathered ions cannot leave the surface of the alignment layer immediately, and thus, a residual image is formed. The ion accumulation is mainly caused by a direct current voltage between the pixel electrode and the common electrode, and therefore the problem is also called that the ion Direct Current (DC) residue causes afterimage. Especially, for a liquid crystal display panel with a large circuit load, the power consumption is high, the heat generation is high, and at a high temperature, impurity particles are more active, so that a serious ghost phenomenon is formed.

It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
Fig. 1A is a schematic cross-sectional view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 1A, the display panel includes a first substrate 10 and a second substrate 20 disposed opposite to the first substrate 10, and a liquid crystal layer 30 between the first substrate 10 and the second substrate 20, the liquid crystal layer 30 including a plurality of liquid crystal molecules; the first substrate 10 or the second substrate 20 is provided with a black matrix, and the black matrix 21 is exemplarily provided on the second substrate 20 in fig. 1A.
Fig. 1B is a top view of a first substrate in a display panel provided in the present invention, and fig. 1C is a top view of a second substrate in a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 1A, 1B, and 1C, the first substrate includes:
a substrate base plate 111; a plurality of data lines 101 and a plurality of scan lines 102 on a substrate 111, the plurality of data lines 101 and the plurality of scan lines 102 intersecting to define a plurality of pixel cells 103; the pixel unit 103 includes a common electrode 12, a pixel electrode 11, and a Thin Film Transistor (TFT) 105, which are insulated from each other, the pixel electrode 11 is electrically connected to a drain/source of the TFT 105, the data line 101 is electrically connected to a source/drain of the TFT 105, and the scan line 102 is electrically connected to a gate of the TFT 105. 201 is a display area of the display panel, 202 is a non-display area of the display panel, the non-display area 202 is provided with a data driving circuit 203 and a gate driving circuit 204, the data driving circuit 203 can be electrically connected with a plurality of data lines 101 for providing data signals to the data lines 101; the gate driving circuit 204 may be electrically connected to the plurality of scan lines 102, and is configured to provide scan signals to the scan lines 102 to turn on the thin film transistors 105, so as to write data signals on the data lines 101 into the pixel electrodes 11.
A plurality of auxiliary electrodes 13, wherein the auxiliary electrodes 13 are positioned between the adjacent pixel units 103 and positioned on one side of the common electrode 12 away from the substrate 111, and the auxiliary electrodes 13 and the common electrode 12 have the same potential;
the vertical projection of the auxiliary electrode 13 on the substrate 111 is located in the vertical projection of the black matrix 21 on the substrate 111, that is, the black matrix 21 shields the auxiliary electrode 13 when looking at the display panel from the front of the display panel, and the auxiliary electrode 13 is located in the non-opening area (opaque area) of the display panel.
It should be noted that 22 may represent a color resistance within the display panel, and may include a red color resistance, a green color resistance, and a blue color resistance. The opening region of the pixel unit 103 is a light-transmitting region, i.e. the region where the color resistor 22 does not overlap the black matrix 21, and the region where the black matrix 21 is located is opaque. In other embodiments of the present invention, the black matrix 21 may be disposed on the first substrate 10. Wherein 110 is an insulating layer on the first substrate, and 211 is a substrate in the second substrate.
The potential on the auxiliary electrode 13 may be supplied by a drive circuit, and specifically, the auxiliary electrode 13 may be electrically connected to an output terminal of the drive circuit, and the drive circuit outputs the same signal as the common electrode 12 to the auxiliary electrode 13. The auxiliary electrode 13 may be electrically connected to the common electrode 12, and in this case, the auxiliary electrode 13 and the common electrode 12 have the same potential. Since the potential of the auxiliary electrode 13 is the same as the potential of the common electrode 12 and is located on the side of the common electrode 12 away from the substrate 111, that is, closer to the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer 30, during the display of the display panel, the impurity ions in the liquid crystal molecules may be gathered near the position of the auxiliary electrode 13, which captures the impurity ions. For example, referring to fig. 1D, fig. 1D is a schematic diagram of impurity ion accumulation in a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, for example, corresponding to the auxiliary electrode 13 on the left side of fig. 1D, the pixel electrode 11 on the left side of the auxiliary electrode 13 is a voltage corresponding to a negative frame, the pixel electrode 11 on the right side is a voltage corresponding to a positive frame, negative impurity ions may accumulate from the position of the pixel electrode 11 on the left side to the auxiliary electrode 13, positive impurity ions may accumulate from the position of the pixel electrode 11 on the right side to the auxiliary electrode 13, and impurity ions may accumulate at the position of the auxiliary electrode. The auxiliary electrode 13 is shielded by the black matrix 21, and the position region where the impurity ions are collected is also shielded by the black matrix 21, and is not used for light transmission display, and the impurity ions collected at the position do not affect normal display. Therefore, the impurity ions in the light-transmitting area of the display panel are relatively reduced, the ion DC residue in the light-transmitting area can be reduced, and the effect of effectively improving the afterimage is further realized.

Since the potential of the auxiliary electrode 13 is the same as the potential of the common electrode 12, the auxiliary electrode 13 is electrically connected to the common electrode 12 through the first via 131, and in the display process, the common voltage signal on the common electrode 12 is transmitted to the auxiliary electrode 13, so that a driving IC (integrated circuit) is not required to provide a corresponding signal to the auxiliary electrode 13, and the structures of circuits and wirings in the first substrate are simplified.
It should be noted that, in fig. 1E, the first insulating layer 111 is exemplarily disposed between the auxiliary electrode 13 and the common electrode 12, in other embodiment modes of the embodiment of the present invention, another film layer may be disposed between the auxiliary electrode 13 and the common electrode 12, that is, a multilayer film layer may be disposed, for example, there may be a multilayer insulating layer between the auxiliary electrode 13 and the common electrode 12.
