Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. 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. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a conventional liquid crystal display panel, and fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a cross section along AA' of fig. 1. referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, as described in the background section, a conventional liquid crystal display panel is generally composed of two parts, namely a backlight module 10 and a liquid crystal panel 20. The backlight module 10 provides backlight to the liquid crystal panel 20, the liquid crystal panel 20 includes an array substrate 21, a counter substrate 22 and a liquid crystal layer 23, and a driving circuit (not shown) disposed on the array substrate 21 controls each liquid crystal cell in the liquid crystal layer 23 to gate the backlight, thereby realizing brightness of each sub-pixel. Meanwhile, the black matrix 221 and the color resistor on the counter substrate 23 in the liquid crystal panel 20 can realize light modulation of light emitted from each sub-pixel, and full-color display of the liquid crystal display panel can be realized by color matching of three primary colors. Meanwhile, the fingerprint recognition unit 40 disposed in the array substrate 21 may receive light reflected by a fingerprint of a finger through the opening of the black matrix 211, thereby performing fingerprint recognition. However, since the liquid crystal panel 20 needs to be provided with the backlight module 10 to provide backlight, it is difficult to make the whole liquid crystal display panel thinner to some extent, and the efficiency of providing backlight by using the backlight module 10 is also low. In view of the above, an embodiment of the invention provides a liquid crystal display panel.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a cross-section taken along BB' of fig. 3, referring to fig. 3 and fig. 4, the liquid crystal display panel includes a main display area 100 and a fingerprint identification display area 200, the main display area 100 and the fingerprint identification display area 200 include a plurality of pixel areas 300 arranged in an array; the liquid crystal display panel further includes an array substrate 21, an opposite substrate 22, and a liquid crystal layer 23 between the array substrate 21 and the opposite substrate 22; in the fingerprint identification display area 200, at least a part of the pixel area 300 includes a first sub-pixel area 301, a second sub-pixel area 302 and a fingerprint identification area 305, the array substrate 21 is provided with a first color light source 31 and a second color light source 32 in the first sub-pixel area 301 and the second sub-pixel area 302, and the fingerprint identification unit 40 is provided in the fingerprint identification area 305;
the counter substrate 22 is provided with a black matrix 221, the black matrix 221 is provided with a plurality of sub-pixel openings 222 and a plurality of fingerprint identification openings 223, a vertical projection of the sub-pixel openings 222 on the array substrate 21 at least partially overlaps a vertical projection of the first sub-color light sources 31 or the second sub-color light sources 32 on the array substrate 21, and a vertical projection of the fingerprint identification openings 223 on the array substrate 21 at least partially overlaps a vertical projection of the fingerprint identification units 40 on the array substrate 21.
The array substrate 21 further includes a transparent substrate 210 and functional film layers formed by a driving circuit, and the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, the fingerprint identification unit 40, and other components in the array substrate 21 are driven and controlled by the driving circuit. The black matrix 221 of the counter substrate 22 is also formed on a transparent base substrate 210.
The main display area 100 and the fingerprint identification display area 200 in the liquid crystal display panel are based on whether a fingerprint identification function is set as a discrimination criterion, in other words, a fingerprint identification unit is provided in the fingerprint identification display area 200 for performing fingerprint identification as compared with the main display area 100. Optionally, the fingerprint identification display area 200 is disposed at a lower half portion of the whole liquid crystal display panel, and may of course be disposed at other positions, such as a side edge area, to facilitate fingerprint identification of a specific finger of a user. When a screen is displayed, the main display area 100 and the fingerprint recognition display area 200 are simultaneously displayed and constitute the entire screen. The fingerprint identification display area 200 is provided with the fingerprint identification units 40 in some of the pixel areas 300, and correspondingly provided with the fingerprint identification openings 223 in the black matrix 221 of the opposite substrate 22, so as to guide the light reflected by the fingerprint into the fingerprint identification units 40 through the fingerprint identification openings 223 for fingerprint identification, that is, the fingerprint identification areas 305 are correspondingly provided in the pixel areas 300. Of course, the liquid crystal display panel is further provided with a first sub-pixel area 221 and a second sub-pixel area 222, so that the pixel area 300 has a dimming capability, and a picture is formed macroscopically by matching with other pixel areas 300. It should be noted that the fingerprint identification area 305 is provided in at least a part of the pixel areas 300 in the fingerprint identification display area 200, which means that not all the pixel areas 300 in the fingerprint identification display area 200 may be provided with the fingerprint identification units 40, and the number and distribution thereof may meet the requirement of the fingerprint identification function. Also, the higher the proportion of the pixel area 300 in the fingerprint identification display area 200 in which the fingerprint identification unit 40 is provided, the higher the fingerprint identification accuracy. Therefore, the skilled person can also set the fingerprint identification unit 40 in all the pixel areas 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200, thereby achieving the maximum fingerprint identification accuracy and achieving the purpose of increasing the fingerprint identification area.
In addition, the sub-pixel openings 222 and the fingerprint recognition openings 223 provided in the black matrix 221 of the counter substrate 22 in the liquid crystal display panel determine the positions, shapes, and areas of the first sub-pixel region 301, the second sub-pixel region 302, and the fingerprint recognition region 305 in correspondence. Moreover, in order to ensure effective light output of the sub-pixel region and effective light input of the fingerprint identification region 305, it is necessary to set the vertical projection of the first color light source 31 and the second color light source 32 on the array substrate 21 to at least partially overlap with the vertical projection of the sub-pixel opening 222 on the array substrate 21, so as to ensure that the light output of the first color light source 31 and the second color light source 32 can be output from the sub-pixel opening 222; the perpendicular projection of the fingerprint identification unit 40 on the array substrate 21 is at least partially overlapped with the perpendicular projection of the fingerprint identification opening 223 on the array substrate 21, so as to ensure that the light reflected by the finger can be incident to the fingerprint identification unit 40 through the fingerprint identification opening 223. In addition, it should be noted that the first color light sources 31 and the second color light sources 32 are disposed on the array substrate 21, instead of providing light sources by the backlight module. Meanwhile, the first color light source 31 and the second color light source 32 can directly emit light of a specific color from the sub-pixel opening without setting a color resistance on the opposite substrate 22, thereby reducing the manufacturing process and the process cost of the opposite substrate 22. In addition, since the light emitted from the first color light source 31 and the second color light source 32 does not need to pass through the color resistance, the light transmittance is higher, and the display brightness of the liquid crystal display panel is also increased.
According to the liquid crystal display panel provided by the embodiment of the invention, the main display area and the fingerprint identification display area are arranged, and the main display area and the fingerprint identification display area comprise a plurality of pixel areas which are arranged in an array manner; the liquid crystal display panel comprises an array substrate, an opposite substrate and a liquid crystal layer, wherein in the fingerprint identification display area, at least part of pixel areas are provided with a first sub-pixel area, a second sub-pixel area and a fingerprint identification area; meanwhile, a black matrix is arranged on the opposite substrate, a plurality of sub-pixel openings and a plurality of fingerprint identification openings are arranged on the black matrix, the vertical projection of the sub-pixel openings on the array substrate is at least partially overlapped with the vertical projection of the first color light source or the second color light source on the array substrate, the vertical projection of the fingerprint identification openings on the array substrate is at least partially overlapped with the vertical projection of the fingerprint identification unit on the array substrate, so that the liquid crystal display panel can not only carry out fingerprint identification through the fingerprint identification unit in a fingerprint identification display area, but also carry out color matching display through the first color light source and the second color light source on the array substrate, on the basis of realizing the fingerprint identification function of the liquid crystal display panel, a backlight module of the liquid crystal display panel can be replaced, the thickness of the liquid crystal display panel is reduced, and meanwhile, the color resistance on the opposite, the transmittance of light is increased, and the brightness of the liquid crystal display panel is improved. In addition, through set up first colour light source and second colour light source on array substrate, help suitably increasing the display brightness in fingerprint identification display area, avoid the fingerprint identification district because of occupying the problem that the fingerprint identification display area luminance that the open area leads to reduces, guarantee liquid crystal display panel's whole luminance.
With continuing reference to fig. 3 and 4, it should be noted that the pixel regions 300 arranged in an array in the main display region 100 of the liquid crystal display panel are also provided with a first sub-pixel region 301 and a second sub-pixel region 302, and further provided with a third sub-pixel region 303. The pixel area 300 without the fingerprint area 305 in the fingerprint display area 200 is also provided with a third sub-pixel area 303, and the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302 and the third sub-pixel area 303 are respectively provided with a first color light source 31, a second color light source 32 and a third color light source on the array substrate 21. At this time, the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, and the third color light source in each pixel area 300 may be color-matched to realize full-color display, so that the accuracy of image display may be ensured. Wherein the first color, the second color, and the third color may be red, green, and blue. The first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, and the third color light source may employ micro-light emitting diodes (micro-led).
Fig. 5 is a partially enlarged schematic view of a cross-sectional structure taken along CC' in fig. 3, and referring to fig. 5, specifically, a first polarizer 241 is further disposed between the array substrate 21 and the liquid crystal layer 23, a second polarizer 242 is disposed on the light emitting side of the opposite substrate 22, and a transmission axis of the first polarizer 241 is perpendicular to a transmission axis of the second polarizer 242.
As shown, the transmission axis of the first polarizer 241 is perpendicular to the paper, and the second polarizer 242 is parallel to the paper. The light-gating effects of the array substrate 21 and the liquid crystal layer 23 require the cooperation of the transmission axes of the first and second polarizing plates 241 and 242. The display principle of the liquid crystal display panel will be briefly described with reference to the structure shown in fig. 5: the array substrate 21 drives the light sources arranged in the pixel regions 300 of the main display region 100 and the fingerprint identification display region 200 to emit light, light emitted by the light sources forms linearly polarized light with the polarization state consistent with the transmission axis of the first polarizer 241 through the first polarizer 241, and then the array substrate 21 drives the liquid crystal molecules of the corresponding liquid crystal layer 23 to deflect, so that the polarization state of the linearly polarized light rotates by 90 degrees, at the moment, the polarization state of the light is consistent with the transmission axis of the second polarizer 242, the light is emitted, and the light which is not driven by the array substrate 21 to realize the deflection of the liquid crystal molecules is absorbed by the second polarizer 242.
In order to avoid the fingerprint identification region being disposed between the sub-pixels of the adjacent rows, which results in the fingerprint identification region occupying the opening area of the pixel region in the pixel region of the fingerprint identification display region, and therefore, with continued reference to fig. 3 and 4, preferably, in the fingerprint identification display region 200, the first sub-pixel region 301, the second sub-pixel region 302 and the fingerprint identification region 303 are alternately arranged in sequence along the first direction 1, and the first color and the second color may be color-mixed.
It can be seen that the above embodiment provides the liquid crystal display panel, in which the fingerprint identification region 303 occupies the position of the third sub-pixel region 303 in the pixel region 300. In the pixel area 300 where the fingerprint identification area 305 is provided in the fingerprint identification display area 200, color-matching display is performed by the first color light source 31 and the second color light source 32. At this moment, by reasonably setting the number of the pixel areas 300 with the fingerprint identification areas 303, the influence of color difference caused by color matching of the two colors in the pixel areas 300 can be avoided to a certain extent while the fingerprint identification effect is ensured, and the display effect is ensured. Moreover, because the fingerprint identification area 303 is not arranged between the adjacent rows of pixel areas 300, the distance between the adjacent rows of pixel areas 300 is shortened, the arrangement of the pixel areas 300 is more dense, the aperture opening ratio of the pixel areas 300 is effectively increased, the influence of the fingerprint identification area 303 on the aperture opening ratio is solved, and the display brightness of the whole liquid crystal display panel is further improved.
Optionally, the embodiment of the invention further provides a liquid crystal display panel. Fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of another liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 6, in the liquid crystal display panel provided in the above embodiment, in the fingerprint identification display area 200, each of the pixel areas 300 includes a third sub-pixel area 303, a third color light source 33 is disposed in the third sub-pixel area 303, the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302, and the third sub-pixel area 303 are alternately arranged in sequence along the first direction 1, the fingerprint identification area 305 and the third sub-pixel area 303 are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 1, and the first color, the second color, and the third color may be color mixed.
In other words, in the fingerprint identification display area 200 of the liquid crystal display panel shown in fig. 6, the fingerprint identification area 305 and the third sub-pixel area 303 occupy the position of the third sub-pixel 303 in the pixel area 300 in the main display area 100, and at this time, the pixel area 300 in the fingerprint identification display area 200 includes the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302 and the third sub-pixel area 303, that is, includes the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32 and the third color light source 33, so that each pixel area 300 can implement full color matching, display color difference of the fingerprint identification display area 200 is reduced to a certain extent, and meanwhile, it is ensured that each pixel area 300 is more compact, and aperture ratio and display brightness can be ensured. It should be noted here that, since the fingerprint identification area 305 and the third sub-pixel area 303 in the fingerprint identification display area 200 occupy the position of the third sub-pixel 303 in the pixel area 300 in the main display area 100, specifically, the area ratio and the relative position of the fingerprint identification area 305 and the third sub-pixel 303 are not limited herein, and for example, the area ratio relationship may be equal ratio, and those skilled in the art can perform experiments and settings according to actual effects.
In the liquid crystal display panel shown in fig. 6, in the pixel area 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200, the fingerprint identification area 305 still occupies a part of the area of the third sub-pixel area 303, so that there is a certain difference in brightness between the fingerprint identification display area 200 and the main display area 100, and in order to improve the difference in brightness, when designing the light source driving circuit of the array substrate, each color light source may be set to be capable of controlling light emission independently, so that when driving the light sources of the main display area 100 and the fingerprint identification display area 200, the brightness of the third color light source 33 of the fingerprint identification display area 200 is greater than the brightness of the third color light source 33 of the main display area 100, and it is ensured that the display brightness of the pixels after color matching of the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32 and the third color light source 33 is consistent.
Fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of another liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 7, further, in order to increase the fingerprint recognition accuracy and improve the fingerprint recognition effect. On the basis of the above embodiment, the fingerprint identification area 305 may be further included between two rows of pixel areas 300 that are at least partially adjacent to each other in the fingerprint identification display area 200 in the vertical first direction 1. At this time, the pixel area 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200, in which the fingerprint identification area 305 is disposed, includes two fingerprint identification areas 305, that is, two fingerprint identification units 40 are disposed in the array substrate 21 corresponding to the same pixel area 300. Obviously, the more the fingerprint identification units 40 are arranged, the greater the density is, the more accurate the light collection of the fingerprint details is, so that the fingerprint can be identified more accurately, and the fingerprint identification effect is improved.
Of course, in order to completely eliminate the color matching problem of the fingerprint identification display area caused by the fingerprint identification area replacing the third sub-pixel area, each pixel area may be arranged to include the third sub-pixel area. Fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of another liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 8, the pixel area 300 further includes a third sub-pixel area 303, a third color light source 33 is disposed in the third sub-pixel area 303, the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302, and the third sub-pixel area 303 are alternately arranged along the first direction 1, and the first color, the second color, and the third color can be mixed; the fingerprint recognition unit 40 is located between two adjacent rows of the pixel regions 300.
In addition, the embodiment of the invention also provides the liquid crystal display panel, aiming at the problem that the brightness of the liquid crystal display panel is reduced due to the fact that the fingerprint identification area occupies the aperture opening ratio. Fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of another liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 9, in the liquid crystal display panel shown in the figure, in the main display area 100 and the fingerprint identification display area 200, each of the pixel areas 300 includes a first sub-pixel area 301, a second sub-pixel area 302, and a third sub-pixel area 303, the array substrate 21 is provided with a first color light source 31, a second color light source 32, and a third color light source 33 in the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302, and the third sub-pixel area 303, and the first color, the second color, and the third color can be mixed and matched; in the main display area 100, the pixel area 300 further includes a fourth sub-pixel area 30, a white light source 34 is disposed in the fourth sub-pixel area 304, and the relative position of the fourth sub-pixel area 304 in the belonging pixel area 300 is consistent with the relative position of the fingerprint identification area 305 in the belonging pixel area 300.
In this case, in the liquid crystal display panel, each pixel area 300 is provided with the first sub-pixel area 301, the second sub-pixel area 302, and the third sub-pixel area 303, so that full color matching can be realized. Meanwhile, the fourth sub-pixel area 30 is disposed in the pixel area 300 of the main display area 100 and corresponds to the white light source 34, that is, the brightness of the main display area 100 can be increased by the white light source 34. In the pixel area 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200, the fingerprint identification area 305 occupies the fourth sub-pixel area 30, and thus does not affect the color matching problem of the fingerprint identification display area 200.
Further, in order to reduce the brightness difference between the main display area and the fingerprint recognition display area due to the fourth sub-pixel area 30 provided in the main display area, the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, the third color light source 33, and the white light source 34 may be individually controlled to emit light; the brightness of the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, and the third color light source 33 of the fingerprint recognition display area 200 is greater than the brightness of the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32, and the third color light source 33 of the main display area 100, respectively. At this time, the display luminance difference between each pixel area 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200 and each pixel area 300 of the main display area 100 can be shortened, and the overall luminance difference between the main display area and the fingerprint identification display area can be avoided. Moreover, by reasonably setting the brightness of the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32 and the third color light source 33 of the fingerprint identification display area 200 and the brightness of the first color light source 31, the second color light source 32 and the third color light source 33 of the main display area 100, the display brightness of each pixel area 300 of the fingerprint identification display area 200 can be ensured to be consistent with that of each pixel area 300 of the main display area 100, so that the brightness difference is avoided.

In summary, the liquid crystal display panel has a fingerprint identification function because the fingerprint identification display area is provided. When setting the shape and position of the fingerprint recognition display area, ergonomics and finger positions need to be considered. For example, the shape of the fingerprint recognition display area in the liquid crystal display panel may be rectangular, circular, oval, and racetrack to conform to finger shapes and finger touch habits. In addition, when the position of the fingerprint recognition display area is set, problems such as wiring need to be taken into consideration.
