Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 2 is a schematic plan structure view of the display panel according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, a non-light-emitting side points to a light-emitting side direction X', the display panel sequentially includes a first polarizer 11, a liquid crystal display panel 12, and a second polarizer 13, and the first polarizer 11 and the second polarizer 13 can effectively prevent external light from entering the liquid crystal display panel 12, prevent the external light from affecting the liquid crystal display panel 12, and improve a display effect of the display panel. The polarizer can convert natural light into polarized light, which is light waves in which the vibration direction of the light vector is not changed or which have a certain regular change, for example, linearly polarized light, circularly polarized light, or the like. The natural light is light with uniform and symmetrical light vector distribution. It is considered that the linearly polarized light is a light component in which natural light vibrates in a certain direction. In this embodiment, the first polarizer 11 and the second polarizer 13 are linear polarizers, and the linear polarizers have absorption axes in a plane where the linear polarizers are located, the absorption axes are perpendicular to a transmission axis of the linear polarizer, and the transmission axis of the linear polarizer is a vibration direction of a light vector. In general, natural light passes through the polarizing plate, and then the emitted light is linearly polarized light that vibrates in a direction along a straight line where the transmission axis is located. In this embodiment, the first absorption axis of the first polarizer 11 and the second absorption axis of the second polarization beam 13 are perpendicular to each other, that is, the first absorption axis of the first polarizer 11 and the second absorption axis of the second polarization beam 13 are perpendicular to each other, which is beneficial to preventing external light from entering the liquid crystal display panel 12 and enhancing the display effect of the panel.

The present embodiment at least includes a first color sub-pixel 122a and a second color sub-pixel 122b, and the transmittance of the first color sub-pixel 122a is greater than that of the second color sub-pixel 122 b. The transmittance of the sub-pixel 122 refers to a ratio of a light transmittance of an opening area per unit area to a total light emission, and factors such as a light emitting material and a light wavelength of the sub-pixel 122 cause a certain difference in transmittance of the sub-pixels 122 of different colors. In this embodiment, besides the first color sub-pixel 122a and the second color sub-pixel 122b, the color display device may further include sub-pixels 122 of other colors, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Referring to fig. 2, each sub-pixel 122 includes an open area 1221 and a non-open area 1222 surrounding the open area 1221, and the light sensing unit 124 is much smaller than the sub-pixel 122, so that the light sensing unit 124 can be disposed in the non-open area 1222.

That is, the proportion of the fingerprint identification area 123 in the display area 121 is 100%, that is, all the display areas 121 are provided with the photosensitive units 124, so that full-screen fingerprint display is realized, a user can realize fingerprint identification by randomly touching any part of the display area 121, and does not need to search a specific area for touch identification, and the user experience is improved.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, fig. 3 is a schematic plane structure diagram of a fingerprint identification area according to an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the fingerprint identification area along a line a-a' in fig. 3, as shown in fig. 3, a first direction X and a second direction Y may be set in this embodiment, and the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other, and in this embodiment, a first absorption axis of the first polarizer 11 may be set in the first direction X, and a second absorption axis of the second polarizer 13 may be set in the second direction Y, and referring to fig. 4, optionally, the liquid crystal display panel 12 may include: a base substrate 12a, the base substrate 12a being disposed adjacent to the first polarizer 11; a color film substrate 12c, wherein the color film substrate 12c is arranged on one side of the substrate 12a close to the second polarizer 13; and the liquid crystal layer 12b is arranged between the substrate 12a and the color film substrate 12c, and the liquid crystal layer 12b is arranged between the substrate 12a and the color film substrate 12 c. A driving circuit layer (not shown in fig. 4) is disposed on the substrate 12a, and is disposed in one-to-one correspondence with the sub-pixels 122 on the color filter substrate 12c, and is used for driving the regions of the liquid crystal layer 12b covered by the sub-pixels 122 to transmit light, so that the backlight can emit light through the sub-pixels 122. As shown in fig. 4, the photosensitive unit 124 of this embodiment may be disposed on the substrate 12a, or the photosensitive unit 124 may also be disposed on a color filter substrate, and the specific position of the photosensitive unit 124 is not limited in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the natural light output by the backlight source can be decomposed, a cross section of the display panel along the first direction X is referred to as a first cross section, that is, a plane shown in fig. 4, specifically, the natural light is divided into two components parallel to the first cross section and perpendicular to the first cross section, a component parallel to the first cross section is referred to as parallel light (i.e., P wave), a component perpendicular to the first cross section is referred to as perpendicular light (i.e., S wave), and the P wave and the S wave are both linearly polarized light. The vibration plane of the P wave is a first section, and the vibration plane of the S wave is a plane perpendicular to the first section. Since the first absorption axis of the first polarizer 11 is arranged along the first direction X, the transmission axis of the first polarizer 11 is arranged along the second direction Y, the backlight source forms an S wave after passing through the first polarizer 11, referring to fig. 4, the P wave is illustrated by a "line segment" in fig. 4, the S wave is illustrated by a "point perpendicular to the first cross section", the liquid crystal layer 12b is equivalent to a half wave plate, and can change most of the S wave into the P wave, and then the P wave passes through the second polarizer 13, the display panel only transmits the P wave, and then the P wave passes through the cover glass 14, and is reflected by the user finger end to enter the cover glass 14 again, the linearly polarized light incident to the photosensitive unit 124 is the P wave, as can be known from the formula, as the fresnel reflection angle increases, the reflection intensity of the P wave decreases, that is to say, when the reflected light is the P wave, the reflection of a small angle is strongest, the photosensitive unit 124 needs to be arranged within a small angle range of the reflected light, in the direction perpendicular to the display panel, the light sensing unit 124 is disposed in the non-opening area 1222 of the first color sub-pixel 122a, because the transmittance of the first color sub-pixel 122a is greater than that of the second color sub-pixel 122b, the light sensing unit 124 needs to be disposed close to the first color sub-pixel 122a, so that the light sensing unit 124 is disposed in a smaller reflection angle of the light emitted by the first color sub-pixel 122a, and the light sensing unit 124 obtains a stronger detection signal, thereby improving the fingerprint identification accuracy. The first color sub-pixel 122a may be the sub-pixel 122 with the highest transmittance among all the color sub-pixels 122 on the display panel, and when the light sensing unit 124 is disposed in the non-opening area 1222 of the first color sub-pixel 122a, the light sensing unit 124 obtains the strongest detection signal, and the fingerprint identification precision is maintained at a high state. In addition, the intensity of light detected by the light sensing units 124 is also related to the sensitivity of the light sensing units 124, and the light sensitivity of different light sensing units 124 to different color light is different, in this embodiment, the light sensing units 124 may be disposed in the non-opening regions 1222 of the sub-pixels 122 with the color having the strong light sensitivity when the first absorption axis is disposed along the first direction X and the second absorption axis is disposed along the second direction Y.

It should be noted that the second color sub-pixel 122b is a sub-pixel 122 with a transmittance lower than that of any one of the first color sub-pixels 122a, and the specific color of the second color sub-pixel 122b is not limited in this embodiment. Similarly, in the present embodiment, the first color sub-pixel 122a may be the sub-pixel 122 with the highest transmittance among all the color sub-pixels 122 on the display panel. In addition, in the present embodiment, the photosensitive unit 124 may be disposed in the non-opening area 1222 of the sub-pixel 122 of a color whose light sensitivity is weak when the first absorption axis is disposed in the second direction Y and the second absorption axis is disposed in the first direction X.

Among the sub-pixels of the above colors, the green sub-pixel G, the red sub-pixel R, and the blue sub-pixel B have respective transmittance values that vary from high to low. The present embodiment uses the green sub-pixel G as the first color sub-pixel 122a and one of the red sub-pixel R and the blue sub-pixel B as the second color sub-pixel 122B. For example, as shown in fig. 3 and 5, a blue sub-pixel B may be selected as the second color sub-pixel 122B, which is not limited in the present embodiment. The arrangement of the first color sub-pixel 122a and the second color sub-pixel 122b is beneficial to enhancing the intensity of light incident to the light sensing unit 124, and improving the fingerprint identification precision.

Among the sub-pixels of the above colors, the white sub-pixel W, the green sub-pixel G, the red sub-pixel R, and the blue sub-pixel B have a high transmittance in order from low to high. The present embodiment uses the white subpixel W or the green subpixel G as the first color subpixel 122a, and one of the red subpixel R and the blue subpixel B as the second color subpixel 122B. The transmittance of the red sub-pixel R or the blue sub-pixel B is lower than that of the other sub-pixels 122, and the second color sub-pixel 122B may be selected from the red sub-pixel R or the blue sub-pixel B, for example, as shown in fig. 7, the blue sub-pixel B with the lowest transmittance may be selected as the second color sub-pixel 122B.

Fig. 8 is a schematic plan view of another fingerprint identification area provided in the embodiment of the present invention, and optionally, at least two sub-pixels 122 with different colors may form a first pixel unit 126 a; the first pixel unit 126a at least includes a first sub-pixel unit 126b and a second sub-pixel unit 126 c; the second sub-pixel unit 126c has sub-pixels with different colors from the first sub-pixel unit 126 b; in the display phase, at least one sub-pixel is multiplexed between the first sub-pixel unit 126b and the second sub-pixel unit 126c for display.
In this embodiment, a Pixel Rendering (SPR) technique may be employed to improve the PPI display of the display panel, improve the Pixel resolution, and improve the image display effect. Specifically, in this example, a combination of at least two sub-pixels 122 of different colors constitutes one first pixel unit 126a, the first pixel unit 126a includes at least two different sub-pixel combination states, the first pixel unit 126a can be divided into a plurality of different types of first pixel units 126a according to the sub-pixel combination states, in this embodiment, the first pixel unit 126a includes at least two forms of a first sub-pixel unit 126b and a second sub-pixel unit 126c, and the sub-pixels 122 of different colors exist in the first sub-pixel unit 126b and the second sub-pixel unit 126 c. For example, the first sub-pixel unit 126B may include a red sub-pixel R and a green sub-pixel G, and the second sub-pixel unit 126c may include a blue sub-pixel B and a red sub-pixel R, so that sub-pixels with different colors exist between the first sub-pixel unit 126B and the second sub-pixel unit 126c, and when displaying, the first sub-pixel unit 126B and the second sub-pixel unit 126c multiplex the blue sub-pixel B and the green sub-pixel G, that is, when displaying, the first sub-pixel unit 126B uses the blue sub-pixel B of the second sub-pixel unit 126c to form a complete pixel group for displaying, and when displaying, the second sub-pixel unit 126c uses the green sub-pixel G of the first sub-pixel unit 126B to form a complete pixel group for displaying. Each pixel group serves as a basic display unit and includes sub-pixels of all colors on the display panel, and as shown in fig. 8, if the display area includes a red sub-pixel R, a green sub-pixel G, and a blue sub-pixel B, the pixel group includes the red sub-pixel R, the green sub-pixel G, and the blue sub-pixel B.
In the present embodiment, each first pixel unit 126a includes two sub-pixels 122, and by multiplexing the functions of the sub-pixels 122 to form pixel groups, respectively, the number of sub-pixels 122 to be set can be reduced while maintaining the same display resolution. When the photosensitive unit 124 is disposed in the display area, the aperture ratio of the display panel is affected, and particularly, when the entire display area is used as the fingerprint recognition area 123, the aperture ratio is reduced. In this example, by using the pixel rendering technology, the number of the sub-pixels 122 can be reduced and the size of the sub-pixels 122 can be increased on the premise of ensuring the display resolution, so that the size of the open area 1221 can be increased, and therefore, the aperture ratio can be increased and the difficulty in manufacturing the process can be reduced under the condition of the same routing occupation ratio.
Optionally, the size of the sub-pixel 122 may be in a range of 15-60 μm. Comparing the sub-pixels 122 in fig. 7 and 8, assuming that fig. 7 and 8 show the display regions with the same area, along the second direction Y, the size d1 occupied by three adjacent sub-pixels 122 in fig. 7 is the same as the size d2 occupied by two adjacent sub-pixels 122 in fig. 8, along the second direction Y, the size of the sub-pixel 122 in fig. 8 is 1.5 times the size of the sub-pixel 122 in fig. 7, and generally, along the second direction Y, i.e. the width direction of the sub-pixel 122, the size of the sub-pixel 122 is 10 μm to 40 μm, the size range of the sub-pixel 122 in this embodiment may be 15 μm to 60 μm, and optionally, in this embodiment, the size range of the sub-pixel 122 along any direction in the plane of the display panel may be 15 μm to 60 μm. In this embodiment, while maintaining a larger display resolution, the number of the sub-pixels 122 is reduced, the size of the sub-pixels 122 is increased, and the process difficulty is reduced.
With continued reference to fig. 8, alternatively, the sub-pixels 122 of the same color between each two adjacent sub-pixel columns 125 may be arranged in a staggered manner along the second direction Y. The sub-pixels 122 with the same color between two adjacent sub-pixel columns 125 are arranged in a staggered manner, and two adjacent sub-pixels 122 are not sub-pixels with the same color along the first direction X, so that the display uniformity is conveniently realized. In addition, referring to fig. 8, there may be a sharing of the sub-pixels 122 between the first pixel units 126a between the two sub-pixel columns 125 arranged in a staggered manner, so as to further increase the display resolution. For example, the second sub-pixel unit 126c of the current sub-pixel column 125 may be multiplexed with the second sub-pixel unit 126b in the next sub-pixel column 125 to increase the display resolution, so as to further increase the size of the sub-pixel 122 and improve the aperture ratio of the display panel.
