The invention aims at solving the technical problems that the prior touch display panel, the light control sensor and the touch sensor are in a cell structure, so that parasitic capacitance exists between an electrode of the light control sensor and a receiving electrode of the touch sensor, and electric fields among the light control sensor, a pixel electrode and liquid crystal are mutually crosstalked, thereby influencing display.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a touch display panel 100, which includes a display driver, a light control sensor, and a touch sensor, wherein the display driver is used for realizing display, the light control sensor is used for realizing optical touch, and the touch sensor is used for realizing capacitive touch.
The light control sensor can be used for remote touch control, and the touch control sensor can be used for short-range touch control, so that display of multifunctional touch control is realized.
Specifically, the photo-sensor includes an output transistor T2 and a photo-sensing transistor T3 electrically connected, wherein the photo-sensing transistor T3 is configured to sense a change in luminous flux, generate a photocurrent according to the sensed luminous flux, and the photocurrent flows from a source to a drain of the sensing transistor T3 via a channel, and charges generated by the photocurrent are output to the detection IC through the output transistor T2. Whether or not a touch is made is determined based on the value of the photocurrent. The photo sensor includes, but is not limited to, any one of a 2T1C (two thin film transistors and 1 storage capacitor) architecture, a 4T1C architecture, and a 5T1C architecture. In this embodiment, a 2T1C structure is taken as an example.
The touch sensor can be in a mutual capacitance touch mode and comprises a transmitting electrode and a touch electrode.

In this embodiment, the photo-sensor may be in cell structure, that is, integrated inside the light emitting layer. The overall thickness of the touch display panel 100 can be reduced compared to an externally hung structure.
Specifically, the light control sensor is disposed on the first substrate 10 and disposed between the first substrate 10 and the light emitting layer.
Further, the photo sensor may be disposed on the first substrate 10 in the same layer as the display driver, i.e., each metal device of the thin film transistor of the photo sensor may be formed through the corresponding same metal layer as each metal device of the thin film transistor of the display driver.
Because the light-operated sensor and the touch sensor are synchronously integrated in the display layer in the prior art, parasitic capacitance exists between the electrode of the light-operated sensor and the electrode of the touch sensor, and electric fields between the sensors are mutually crosstalked, one of the transmitting electrode and the receiving electrode of the touch sensor is arranged as an externally hung structure (arranged outside the luminous layer), and the other is arranged as an in cell structure (arranged inside the luminous layer), so that the crosstalk influence of the electrode of the touch sensor on other sensors is reduced, and compared with the purely externally hung structure (the transmitting electrode and the receiving electrode are arranged outside the luminous layer), the touch sensor has lower cost and thinner thickness.
The one-frame display period of the touch display panel may include a first period of time in which the display driver and the light control sensor operate; and in the second time period, the touch sensor works. The touch sensor works in a frame time-sharing manner with the display driver and the light-operated sensor, so that the problems of crosstalk of a common electrode of the display driver to a touch signal and parasitic capacitance generated between an electrode of the light-operated sensor and a touch electrode can be solved.
The touch display panel further comprises a plurality of scanning lines, and the light-operated touch sensor and the display driver are electrically connected to the same scanning line, so that synchronous operation of display and light control is realized, and the refresh rate and the point reporting rate of the display and the light control are improved.

The pixel electrode 30 is disposed on the display driver 101 and the photo sensor 102, and the pixel electrode 30 is electrically connected to the switching transistor T1 of the display driver 101.
The touch sensor is of a mutual capacitance touch structure, and comprises a first touch electrode 92 and a second touch electrode 110, wherein the first touch electrode 92 is one of a transmitting electrode Tx and a receiving electrode Rx, and the second touch electrode 110 is the other of the transmitting electrode Tx and the receiving electrode Rx. In the present embodiment, the first touch electrode 92 is a transmitting electrode Tx, and the second touch electrode 110 is a receiving electrode Rx, but not limited thereto.
The first touch electrode 92 may be disposed on a side of the second substrate 60 facing the first substrate 10, and the second touch electrode 110 may be disposed on a side of the second substrate 60 facing away from the first substrate 10.
The multiplexing electrode is used as an electrode of different functions at different time periods, and can reduce the process cost and the thickness of the touch display panel 100. When the multiplexing electrode is used as a common electrode in the display stage, the common electrode and the pixel electrode 30 form a liquid crystal capacitor, and at least a part of the multiplexing electrode is used as a transmitting electrode or a receiving electrode of a touch driver in the touch stage, so that the interference of the common electrode on touch signals can be effectively solved, and the improvement on the VA type display panel is more obvious.

The Readout line Readout may be externally connected to a detection unit IC of the touch display panel 100 for detecting a light control position, where voltages of the first power line SVDD and the second power line SVGG are fixed voltages.
The driving principle of the photo-sensor 102 is as follows: when a specific light amount is sensed in the active layer of the photo transistor T3, a photocurrent is generated according to the sensed light amount and flows from the source to the drain of the sensing transistor T3 via the channel, by applying a driving voltage to the source of the photo transistor T3 through the first power line SVDD and a fixed voltage to the gate of the photo transistor T3 through the second power line SVGG. The photocurrent flows to the storage capacitor Cst through the drain electrode of the photo transistor T3. Accordingly, charges generated by the photocurrent are accumulated in the storage capacitor Cst through the first and second source lines SVDD and SVGG. The charge accumulated in the storage capacitor Cst flows to the Readout line Readout through the source or drain of the output transistor T2 to be detected by the detection unit IC connected to the Readout line Readout, and it is determined whether to perform light control based on the value of the photocurrent.

The material of the second touch electrode 110 includes, but is not limited to, one or more of ITO, transparent conductive polymer PEDOT, metal nanowires, graphene, carbon nanotubes, and Cu, al, au, pt, ag, mo.
