next, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic drawings, and in the detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, the schematic drawings showing the structure of the device are not partially enlarged in general scale for convenience of description, and the schematic drawings are only examples, which should not limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and height should be included in the actual fabrication.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the display panel 10 includes a plurality of repeating units 100 arranged in a matrix, where each repeating unit 100 includes two first sub-pixels 101, two second sub-pixels 102, and four third sub-pixels 103, the light emitting colors of the first sub-pixels 101, the second sub-pixels 102, and the third sub-pixels 103 are different, the geometric centers of the two first sub-pixels 101 and the two second sub-pixels 102 form a virtual square 110, the light emitting colors of the two sub-pixels on the same side of the virtual square 110 are different, and the extending direction of the side of the virtual square 110 is parallel to the row direction X or the column direction Y of the matrix. Any one third sub-pixel 103 is arranged inside the virtual square 110, the remaining three third sub-pixels 103 are arranged outside the virtual square 110, and the geometric centers of the four third sub-pixels 103 form a virtual rectangle 120, the virtual rectangle 120 includes two first sides p extending in parallel with the row direction X of the matrix and two second sides q extending in parallel with the column direction Y of the matrix, and the length of the first sides p is smaller than that of the second sides q. In the display panel 10, along the row direction X of the matrix, the distance between two adjacent third sub-pixels 103 in different repeating units 100 is a, the distance between two adjacent third sub-pixels 103 in the same repeating unit 100 is b, a is greater than b, and along the column direction Y of the matrix, the distance c between any two adjacent third sub-pixels 103 is equal.
It should be noted that fig. 1 only illustrates that the display panel 10 includes four repeating units 100, but is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments of the present embodiment, the display panel 10 may further include other numbers of repeating units 100.
In addition, the shapes of the first sub-pixel 101, the second sub-pixel 102 and the third sub-pixel 103 in the display panel 10 may be various shapes including a rectangle, and all of the schemes that can satisfy the condition that the geometric centers of the two first sub-pixels 101 and the two second sub-pixels 102 in the repeating unit 100 are located on the same virtual square 110 are within the protection scope of the present embodiment.
it should be further noted that, as shown in fig. 1, each third sub-pixel 103 and the first sub-pixel 101 or the second sub-pixel 102 located at the upper left corner thereof form a physical pixel unit 200. In the pixel rendering process in the display stage, each physical pixel unit 200 uses the sub-pixels of the third color on the same side thereof to form a display pixel unit 300, and the display pixel unit 300 is configured to display the content of one image pixel unit in the picture to be displayed, where the image pixel unit includes three sub-pixels of the same color as the light emission color of the first sub-pixel 101, the second sub-pixel 102, and the third sub-pixel 103. It is understood that the display panel 10 having N repeating units 100 includes 4N physical pixel units 200, which can be used to display a picture to be displayed having 4N image pixel units, where N is a positive integer. For example, the display panel 10 shown in fig. 1 includes 16 physical pixel units 200, the to-be-displayed picture shown in fig. 2 includes 16 image pixel units 400, and the display panel 10 shown in fig. 1 can be used to display the content of the to-be-displayed picture shown in fig. 2. Specifically, 16 physical pixel units 200 of the display panel 10 in fig. 1 are arranged in 4 rows and 4 columns, 16 image pixel units 400 of the picture to be displayed in fig. 2 are arranged in 4 rows and 4 columns, and the physical pixel unit 200 of the mth row and the kth column of the display panel 10 uses the sub-pixel of the third color on the lower side thereof to form the display pixel unit 300, which is used for displaying the content of the image pixel unit 400 of the mth row and the kth column of the picture to be displayed. For example, in fig. 1, the physical pixel unit 200 in the 1 st row and the 4 th column of the display panel 10 is an a-physical pixel unit 201, the a-physical pixel unit 201 includes one second sub-pixel 102 and one third sub-pixel 103, the a-physical pixel unit 201 uses the first sub-pixel 101 of the first color on the lower side thereof to form an a-display pixel unit 301, and the a-display pixel unit 301 is used for displaying the content of the a-image pixel unit 401 in the 1 st row and the 4 th column in the picture to be displayed in fig. 2. It should be noted that the position of the sub-pixel of the third emission color borrowed by the physical pixel unit 200 is not particularly limited in this embodiment, and the description is given by taking the sub-pixel of the third emission color borrowed by each physical pixel unit 200 as an example, but not limited thereto.
therefore, the pixel array of the display panel 10 can achieve the beneficial effect of realizing high display pixel density by achieving low physical pixel density through pixel rendering, and the display effect of the display panel 10 is effectively improved.
The display panel 10 provided in this embodiment includes a plurality of repeating units 100 arranged in a matrix, where the geometric centers of two first sub-pixels 101 and two second sub-pixels 102 in the repeating unit 100 form a virtual square 110, the third sub-pixel 103 located inside the virtual square 110, three third sub-pixels 103 located outside the virtual square 110, and the geometric center form a virtual rectangle 120, the long side of the virtual rectangle 120 and two opposite sides of the virtual square 110 are parallel to the column direction X of the matrix, and the short side of the virtual rectangle 120 and the remaining two opposite sides of the virtual square 110 are parallel to the column direction Y of the matrix, on one hand, the geometric centers of the first sub-pixel 101 and the second sub-pixel 102 in the display panel 10 are distributed more uniformly, which is beneficial to improving the display effect of the display panel 10, on the other hand, the distance between the two third sub-pixels 102 located on the short side of the virtual rectangle 120 in the repeating unit 100 is smaller, the area of the non-light-emitting region outside the sub-pixels in the display panel 10 is reduced, so that more sub-pixels can be arranged on the display panel 10 with the same size, which is beneficial to the improvement of the pixel density of the display panel 10 and the increase of the pixel aperture ratio.
fig. 3 is a schematic sectional view along the broken line AB in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 3, the sub-pixel 104 includes a first electrode 501, an organic light-emitting functional layer 502, and a second electrode 503, which are sequentially stacked along a light-emitting direction Z of the display panel, and in a repeating unit, the organic light-emitting functional layers 502 of two third sub-pixels 103 adjacently disposed along a row direction X of the matrix are formed by using the same mask opening, where the sub-pixel 104 may be a first sub-pixel, a second sub-pixel, or a third sub-pixel, and it can be understood that, according to a position of a section line AB in fig. 1, the sub-pixel 104 illustrated in fig. 3 is the third sub-pixel 103.
It should be noted that, on one hand, the distance between two third sub-pixels 103 adjacently arranged in the row direction X of the matrix in the repeating unit is no longer limited by the process limit size of the bridge between the adjacent openings of the corresponding mask, and the distance between two third sub-pixels 103 can be set to be smaller than the process limit size of the bridge between the adjacent openings of the mask, thereby achieving the beneficial effects of increasing the pixel density and the pixel aperture ratio of the display panel. On the other hand, the distance between the adjacent openings of the mask for preparing the light-emitting functional layer 502 of the third sub-pixel 103 is increased, and the difficulty in preparing the mask is reduced.
In addition, with reference to fig. 1, two sub-pixel rows adjacent to the same third sub-pixel row are arranged in a staggered manner, so that the distance between the adjacent first sub-pixel 101 and the adjacent second sub-pixel 102 in the two sub-pixel rows is increased, and the distance between the adjacent openings in the two masks used for forming the light-emitting functional layer 502 of the first sub-pixel 101 and the light-emitting functional layer 502 of the second sub-pixel 102 is increased, so that the color mixing probability of the first sub-pixel 101 and the second sub-pixel 102 is reduced, and the difficulty in preparing the two masks is reduced.
With continued reference to fig. 1, the virtual square 110 includes a vertex O located inside the virtual rectangle 120, and the geometric center of the first sub-pixel 101 or the second sub-pixel 102 disposed at the vertex O coincides with the geometric center of the virtual rectangle 120.
It should be noted that, with such an arrangement, the midpoint E of the connecting line of the geometric centers of the two third sub-pixels 103 located on the short sides of the virtual rectangle 120 coincides with the geometric center F of the first virtual rectangle 130 composed of the geometric centers of the three first sub-pixels 101 and the three second sub-pixels 102 arranged around the two third sub-pixels 103, and when the light emitting color of the third sub-pixel 103 is green with the strongest human eye sensitivity, the display image definition of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
with continued reference to fig. 3, the display panel 10 further includes a plurality of pixel circuits 610, each sub-pixel 104 is electrically connected to one of the pixel circuits 610, and the pixel circuit 610 is configured to drive the corresponding sub-pixel 104 to emit light.
It should be noted that, in order to simplify the structure of the drawing, fig. 3 illustrates the corresponding pixel circuit 610 with a driving transistor, and it is understood that the pixel circuit 610 further includes components other than the driving transistor.
it should be further noted that, the arrangement manner of electrically connecting each sub-pixel 104 to one pixel circuit 610 ensures that each sub-pixel 104 can normally emit light under the driving of the corresponding pixel circuit 610, and thus the display panel can normally operate.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 3, along the light outgoing direction Z of the sub-pixel 104, the pixel circuit 610 and the correspondingly connected sub-pixel 104 are at least partially overlapped, so that while it is ensured that each sub-pixel 104 can be driven by the corresponding pixel circuit 610, the problem of signal delay or loss caused by an excessively large distance between the pixel circuit 610 and the corresponding sub-pixel 104 is avoided, and the display panel can normally operate and has a good display effect.
Fig. 4 is a schematic view of another cross-sectional structure along the dashed line AB in fig. 1. The display panel structure shown in fig. 4 is similar to the display panel structure shown in fig. 3, except that in fig. 4, two third sub-pixels 103 in the same repeating unit are connected to the same pixel circuit 610 along the row direction X of the matrix.
It should be noted that, on one hand, such an arrangement can reduce the total number of the pixel circuits 610, reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the display panel, reduce the number of the driving signals, and simplify the driving signals. On the other hand, two third sub-pixels 103 driven by the same pixel circuit 610 can emit light under the same driving signal, and parameters such as the light emitting brightness are completely the same, so that the method is suitable for a scene requiring the adjacent two third sub-pixels 103 to emit light completely the same.
Optionally, the light emitting color of the first sub-pixel 101 is a first color, the light emitting color of the second sub-pixel 102 is a second color, the light emitting color of the third sub-pixel 103 is a third color, and the first color, the second color, and the third color are any one of red, green, and blue, and are different from each other.
Since red, green, and blue are three primary colors of light, and red, green, and blue with different intensities can be mixed to obtain light of various colors, the emission colors of the first sub-pixel 101, the second sub-pixel 102, and the third sub-pixel 103 are set to be any one of red, green, and blue, respectively, and are different from each other, so that the display colors of the display panel can be varied, and the display colors of the display panel can be enriched.
illustratively, the third color may be green.
It should be noted that, in the pixel rendering process, the first sub-pixel 101 or the second sub-pixel 102 in any physical pixel unit is borrowed by another physical pixel unit to form a display pixel unit, so that the first sub-pixel 101 and the second sub-pixel 102 both belong to two display pixel units, and each physical pixel unit includes a third sub-pixel 103, and when the display pixel unit is formed, the third sub-pixel 103 of the other physical pixel unit does not need to be borrowed, so that the third sub-pixel 103 belongs to one display pixel unit. Because the sensitivity of human eyes to green is higher, the third color corresponding to the third sub-pixel 103 is set to green, so that when the human eyes observe the display picture, each display pixel unit is easy to distinguish, the visual resolution is higher, and the visual picture is clearer.
Further, the size of the red sub-pixel may be smaller than the size of the blue sub-pixel.
It should be noted that, under the influence of the characteristics of the forming material, the lifetime of the blue sub-pixel is shorter than that of the red sub-pixel, and in order to avoid the reduction of the lifetime of the display panel due to the lifetime of the blue sub-pixel, the area of the blue sub-pixel is set to be larger, so as to reduce the current density of the blue sub-pixel and improve the lifetime of the blue sub-pixel.
With continued reference to fig. 1, along the column direction Y of the matrix, the same side edges of the first sub-pixel 101 and the second sub-pixel 102 located in the same sub-pixel row are located on the same virtual straight line l, and the virtual straight line l extends along the row direction X of the matrix.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the sides of the first subpixel 101 and the second subpixel 102 in the same subpixel row, which are adjacent to the upper adjacent subpixel row thereof, are located on the same virtual straight line l, and the sides of the first subpixel 101 and the second subpixel 102 in the same subpixel row, which are adjacent to the lower adjacent subpixel row thereof, are located on the same virtual straight line l. Due to the arrangement, the same side edges of the first sub-pixel 101 and the second sub-pixel 102 in the same sub-pixel row are flush, so that the display image of the display panel 10 in the matrix row direction X has better linearity, and no fuzzy zigzag edge occurs.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, the first subpixel 101, the second subpixel 102, and the third subpixel 103 may be rectangular in shape.
It can be seen from the basic knowledge of geometry that, when the widths of the first sub-pixel 101, the second sub-pixel 102, and the third sub-pixel 103 in the row direction X and the column direction Y of the matrix are determined, the area of the sub-pixel having a rectangular shape is larger than the area of the sub-pixel having another shape, which is beneficial to further increasing the pixel aperture ratio of the display panel 10.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, along the row direction X of the matrix, the vertical distance b between the opposing edges of two third sub-pixels 103 in the same repeating unit 100 may be L, where L is 7 μm ≦ L ≦ 10 μm.
it should be noted that too small L may cause too small visual distance between the two third sub-pixels 103, so that human eyes cannot accurately distinguish the two third sub-pixels 103, which affects the display effect of the display panel 10. Too large L increases the area of the non-display region outside the sub-pixels, resulting in a decrease in the pixel aperture ratio and the pixel density of the display panel 10. When L is less than or equal to 7 μm and less than or equal to 10 μm, the display panel 10 has a good display effect, and a large pixel aperture ratio and a large pixel density.
Alternatively, in the display phase, in the same repeating unit 100, two third sub-pixels 103 arranged in the row direction X of the matrix alternately emit light.
It should be noted that the distance between the two third sub-pixels 103 arranged along the row direction X of the matrix in the same repeating unit 100 is very close, and in the display stage, the two third sub-pixels 103 can be regarded as one light-emitting point approximately, and the light-emitting point can be used as the two third sub-pixels 103 at the same time. Illustratively, two third sub-pixels 103 arranged in the matrix row direction X in the same repeating unit 100 belong to two different physical pixel units 200, the two physical pixel units 200 respectively use the sub-pixels of the first color on the lower side thereof to form a display pixel unit 300, and when the two third sub-pixels 103 are regarded as one light emitting point, the light emitting point belongs to both the two physical pixel units 200 and both the two display pixel units 300. Accordingly, in order to reduce the total use time of each third sub-pixel 103 and extend the life of the third sub-pixel 103, two third sub-pixels 103 arranged in the row direction X of the matrix in the same repeating unit 100 are arranged to alternately emit light.
Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of another display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. The display panel 10 shown in fig. 5 is similar in structure to the display panel 10 shown in fig. 1, except that two third sub-pixels 103 adjacently disposed in the row direction X of the matrix in the same repeating unit 100 form a third sub-pixel group 130, and the width T of each third sub-pixel 103 in the column direction Y of the matrix is gradually reduced along a direction in which the geometric center of any third sub-pixel 103 in the third sub-pixel group 130 points to the geometric center of another third sub-pixel 103 in the same group.
illustratively, the third subpixel 103 located at the upper left corner in fig. 5 is an a third subpixel 103/1, the third subpixel 103 disposed adjacent thereto in the row direction X of the matrix and belonging to the same repeating unit 100 is an b third subpixel 103/2, and the a third subpixel 103/1 and the b third subpixel 103/2 constitute a third subpixel group 130. The width T of the first third subpixel 103/1 in the column direction Y of the matrix gradually decreases in a direction R in which the geometric center U of the first third subpixel 103/1 points to the geometric center V of the second third subpixel 103/2; the width T of the second third subpixel 103/2 in the column direction Y of the matrix gradually decreases in a direction W in which the geometric center V of the second third subpixel 103/2 points to the geometric center U of the first third subpixel 103/1.
It should be noted that, the distance between two adjacent third sub-pixels 103 in the row direction X of the matrix in the same repeating unit 100 is small, and the visual distance between the two third sub-pixels 103 is very close in the display stage, which easily causes that the two third sub-pixels 103 cannot be distinguished by human eyes, especially when the color of the light emitted by the third sub-pixel 103 is green with the strongest human eye sensitivity, the third sub-pixel 103 is the visual center of the display pixel unit, and the visual pixel density of the display panel 10 is reduced when the two adjacent third sub-pixels 103 are mixed up. Along the direction that the geometric center of any one third sub-pixel 103 in the third sub-pixel group 130 points to the geometric center of another third sub-pixel 103 in the same group, the width T of the third sub-pixel 103 in the column direction Y of the matrix is gradually reduced, so that the size of the area where the two third sub-pixels 103 are close to each other is reduced, the visual distance between the two third sub-pixels 103 in the display stage is effectively increased, the probability that the two third sub-pixels 103 are mixed is reduced, and further, the visual pixel density of the display panel 10 is prevented from being reduced when the third sub-pixel 103 is used as the visual center of the display pixel unit.
