The embodiment of the present invention is suitable for the display panel 20 having the touch layer 110, and the touch driving electrode 107 is a driving electrode of the touch layer 110; the touch layer 110 further includes touch sensing electrodes, i.e. electrodes for sensing touch operations; when touch occurs, the distance between the touch driving electrode 107 and the touch sensing electrode near the touch point changes, so that capacitive coupling between the touch driving electrode and the touch sensing electrode is affected to generate a sensing signal, and the position of the touch point can be calculated.
In the embodiment of the present application, a sub-pixel unit 104 is disposed in an area between adjacent pixel defining portions 103; the display substrate 10 further includes a plurality of thin film transistors 109, each of the plurality of thin film transistors 109 is located between the substrate 101 and the pixel defining layer 102, each of the sub-pixel units 104 is electrically connected to one of the plurality of thin film transistors 109 through a corresponding second electrode 108, the thin film transistor 109 is configured to apply a driving signal to the second electrode 108, and a side of each of the plurality of sub-pixel units 104 away from the substrate 101 is electrically connected or contacted with the first electrode 105, and then one of the first electrode 105 and the second electrode 108 is used as an anode, and the other of the first electrode 105 and the second electrode 108 is used as a cathode, and the switching function of the thin film transistor 109 is combined, so that the light emission or non-light emission of the corresponding sub-pixel unit can be controlled. The sub-pixel unit 104 may be an OLED pixel sub-unit, and specifically may be a red pixel sub-unit, a green pixel sub-unit, or a blue pixel sub-unit. The cathode and the touch driving electrode may be made of one or more of silver Ag, copper Cu, magnesium Mg, aluminum Al, Metal Mesh, Metal oxide ITO, and indium tin oxide.
The thin film transistor includes a buffer layer 91, an Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO) active layer 92, a gate insulating layer 93, a gate electrode 94, an interlayer dielectric layer 95, a source electrode (S electrode) 96, a drain electrode (D electrode) 97, and a planarization layer 98 covering the source electrode 96, the drain electrode 97, and the gate electrode 94, which are sequentially disposed on a substrate 101; the second electrode 108 is connected to the drain electrode 94.
Alternatively, in a thin film transistor, a unit including N of the source electrode 96, the drain electrode 97, and the gate electrode 94 is included, the drain electrode 97 of the previous unit is connected to the gate electrode 94 of the next unit, the source electrode 96 of the first unit is connected to the anode of the control circuit, and the drain electrode 94 of the nth unit is connected to the second electrode 108. Wherein N is a positive integer, for example, 1, 2 or 9.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first electrode 105 covers the sub-pixel unit 104, and a thin film encapsulation layer 113 and a polyimide thin film layer 114 are sequentially stacked on the first electrode 105 in the projection area of the sub-pixel unit 104, so as to implement encapsulation of the sub-pixel unit.
In the embodiment of the present invention, because the electrochromic layer 106 is located between the touch driving electrode 107 and the first electrode 105 located on the display defining portion 103, and the electrochromic layer 106 can perform a reversible color change reaction under the action of an electric field, when the display substrate 10 is applied to the display panel 20, when the display panel 20 turns on, a voltage reaching a color change voltage value of the electrochromic layer 106 can be applied between the touch driving electrode 107 and the first electrode 105, so that the electrochromic layer 106 can perform a color change adjustment;
meanwhile, because each pixel defining part 103 is sequentially stacked with a first electrode 105, an electrochromic layer 106 and a touch driving electrode 107 on the side away from the substrate, the entire display panel 20 can be in a colorful state by controlling the electrochromic layers 106 at different positions to change colors;
in addition, since the electrochromic layer 106 does not consume power any more without changing the color, the power consumption of the above-mentioned multi-color pattern rendering method is much lower than that of the existing screen saver method.
Since the first electrode 105 and the touch driving electrode 107 are both inherent electrode structures of the conventional display substrate 10, and since the first electrode 105 is not required to be used for supplying power to the display screen of the display panel 20 and the touch sensing electrode 107 is not required to be used for sensing touch operation when the display panel 20 is in the screen-saving state, the electrochromic layer 106 does not need to be changed in color without increasing an electrode structure, and the original display function and touch function of the display panel 20 are not affected.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, since the touch driving electrodes 107 of the touch layer 110 are used, and the plurality of touch driving electrodes 107 are generally connected in series, for example, connected in series and arranged in rows or columns, the plurality of electrochromic layers 106 corresponding to the plurality of touch driving electrodes 107 connected in series can be uniformly color-changed by controlling the plurality of touch driving electrodes 107 connected in series to be powered on. The plurality of or all touch sensing electrodes 107 may be controlled to be powered on simultaneously, and voltages of the power supplied to the touch sensing electrodes 104 may be the same or different, so that the electrochromic layer 106 at the corresponding position may be controlled to change colors according to the arrangement of the touch sensing electrodes 107, so that the entire display panel 20 is in a colorful state.
For example, when a plurality of touch driving electrodes 107 are arranged in a row in series, and the touch driving electrodes 107 in different rows are controlled to be connected to power supplies with different voltages, the electrochromic layers 106 in different rows corresponding to the touch driving electrodes 107 in different rows can be subjected to different color changes, thereby realizing long-time color information screen display.
In the embodiment of the present application, the electrochromic layer 106 includes an electrochromic material sub-layer 61, an ion conducting sub-layer 62, and an ion storage sub-layer 63, which are sequentially stacked. The ion-conducting sublayer 66 is located between the electrochromic material sublayer 61 and the ion storage sublayer 62, and the ion-conducting sublayer 63 is in direct contact with both the electrochromic material sublayer 61 and the ion storage sublayer 62.
The optical properties of the material of the electrochromic material layer 106, such as reflectivity, transmittance, and absorption rate, are stable and reversible color change under the action of an external electric field, and may be an inorganic electrochromic material or an organic electrochromic material. Optionally, the material of the electrochromic material sublayer 61 may specifically be one or more of polypyrrole electrochromic materials, polythiophene electrochromic materials, polyfuran electrochromic materials, and polybenzazole electrochromic materials. Polyaniline can be formed by electrochemical processes or chemical oxidation of aniline; polyaniline may appear pale yellow or dark green/black in different oxidation states.
The ion-conducting sublayer 62 allows ions to move between the electrochromic sublayer 61 and the ion-storage sublayer 63, but prevents electrons from passing through, i.e., the ion-conducting sublayer 62 conducts ions but does not conduct electrons, and can be in the form of a solid, liquid or colloidal state.
The ion storage sublayer 63 is used for storing ions and supplying ions during the color change process, thereby balancing the total amount of charges. The ion storage sublayer 63 may also use an electrochromic material with properties opposite to those of the electrochromic material sublayer 61, and may play a role in ion complementation during the color change process.
Optionally, in an embodiment, the electrochromic material sub-layer 61 is electrically connected to the first electrode 105, and the ion storage sub-layer 63 is electrically connected to the touch driving electrode 107. In this embodiment, the electrochromic material sublayer 61 is in contact with the first electrode 105, and the ion storage sublayer 63 is in contact with the touch driving electrode 107, so that when the electrochromic layer 106 performs the color change adjustment, the color change reaction proceeds toward the substrate 101.
Alternatively, in another embodiment, the ion storage sublayer 63 is electrically connected to the first electrode 105, and the electrochromic material sublayer 61 is electrically connected to the touch driving electrode 107. In this embodiment, the electrochromic material sub-layer 61 is in contact with the touch driving electrode 107, and the ion storage sub-layer 63 is in contact with the first electrode 105, so that when the electrochromic layer 106 performs the color change adjustment, the color change reaction is performed on the side away from the substrate 101.
In the embodiment of the present application, the display substrate 20 further includes a touch layer 110; the touch layer is disposed on the electrochromic layer 106 and electrically connected to the touch driving electrode 107; optionally, the electrochromic material sublayer 61 is black or gray before electrochromic, and the electrochromic voltage of the electrochromic material sublayer 61 is less than the working voltage of the touch layer; the working voltage is a voltage between the touch driving electrode 107 and the first electrode 105 when the touch layer is in a working state. The electrochromic material sub-layer 61 in the embodiment of the application is black or gray before electrochromic, so that when the display panel 20 including the display substrate 10 is powered on for displaying, the black or gray electrochromic layer is used for shielding the projection area of the electrochromic layer 106, thereby prompting the display effect of the picture; the electrochromic voltage of the electrochromic material sublayer 61 is lower than the working voltage of the touch layer, so that when the display panel 20 performs the bright screen display and the touch detection operation, the electrochromic layer 106 does not generate a color change reaction due to the electric field between the touch driving electrode 107 and the first electrode 105, and further the display effect of the display panel 20 is not affected.
Referring to fig. 3, the display panel 20 includes the display substrate 10.
In the display panel, the electrochromic layer is additionally arranged between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode positioned on the display defining part, and the electrochromic layer can perform reversible color change reaction under the action of an electric field, so that when the display panel is turned on, the electrochromic layer is subjected to color change adjustment by applying voltage to the touch driving electrode and the first electrode, and the whole display panel is in a colorful state; in addition, because the electrochromic layer can not consume electric energy under the condition that the color is not changed, the power consumption of the colorful pattern presentation mode is far lower than that of the existing screen protection mode.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 3, the display panel 20 further includes a cover plate 111 and a touch layer 110; the cover plate 111, the touch layer 110, and the display substrate 10 are sequentially stacked, and the cover plate 111 and the touch layer 110 are bonded by an optically transparent adhesive 112. When the display panel 20 is in the display state, the electrochromic layer 106 is in a dark color state such as black or gray, and can block light to circuits such as the thin film transistor 109 below, so that the polarizer in the existing display panel such as the micro light emitting diode display panel or the quantum dot display panel can be eliminated, the display effect of the display panel is not affected, and the whole display panel is slimmer.
The embodiment of the present application further provides a display panel driving method, which is used for driving the display panel, where the method may include step 100.
In the embodiment of the present application, the method is applied to an electronic device with a touch display panel, where the electronic device may be a mobile electronic device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm computer, a vehicle-mounted electronic device, a wearable device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or may also be a non-mobile electronic device such as a Personal Computer (PC), a Television (TV), a teller machine, or a self-service machine.
Step 100, in a breath screen state, applying a first voltage between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode to change the electrochromic layer from a primary color to a target color, where the primary color is black or gray.
In step 100, the first voltage is a color-changing voltage of an electrochromic material in the electrochromic layer. In the breath screen state, the first electrode and the touch driving electrode do not need to supply power to a display picture of the display panel, so that the touch screen display panel can be used for providing an electric field effect for the color changing reaction of the electrochromic layer, and the electrochromic layer is changed from a black or gray primary color state to a target color state by applying a first voltage which enables the color changing reaction of the electrochromic layer between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode, so that the whole display panel is in a colorful state; in addition, because the electrochromic layer can not consume electric energy under the condition that the color is not changed, the power consumption of the colorful pattern presentation mode is far lower than that of the existing screen protection mode.
Optionally, in an embodiment, in a case that the electrochromic layer can be changed to multiple colors from a primary color through the action of electric fields with different intensities, the step 100 specifically includes steps 111 to 113:
step 111, determining a target color in a breath screen state;
step 112, determining a first voltage according to the corresponding relation between the target color and the voltage value;
step 113, applying the first voltage between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode to change the electrochromic layer from a primary color to a target color, where the primary color is black or gray.
In step 111, the target color is a preset osd display color, that is, when entering the osd state, a color preset by the user is obtained as the target color.
In step 112, the correspondence relationship between the voltage value and the color, which is determined in advance according to the electrochromic performance of the electrochromic layer, indicates that the electrochromic layer is changed from the value to the target color to the required voltage value. Therefore, after the target color is determined, the target voltage can be determined as the first voltage based on the correspondence relationship.
In step 113, a first voltage is applied between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode, so that the electrochromic layer located between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode undergoes a color change reaction under the action of an electric field and changes to a target color.
The above embodiment is suitable for a scene in which a single electrochromic layer can change different colors through different electric field effects, and a corresponding first voltage is applied between the touch drive electrode and the first electrode according to a corresponding relationship between a target color and a voltage value which need to be changed, that is, the electrochromic layer can be changed to different color states.
Optionally, in an embodiment, the driving method further includes steps 200 to 300:
step 200, continuously applying a second voltage for a preset time duration between the touch drive electrode and the first electrode under the condition that a bright screen signal is received, so that the electrochromic layer is restored to the primary color from the target color; the second voltage is equal to the first voltage in magnitude and opposite in direction.
In the step 200, when the bright screen signal is received, it indicates that the user needs to use the display panel, but the electrochromic layer is still in the target color state, and the target color is generally in the color state, and in order not to affect the normal display of the display panel, the electrochromic layer needs to be restored to the primary color state of black or gray, so that a second voltage is continuously applied between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode for a preset time duration, and since the second voltage is equal to and opposite to the first voltage, the electrochromic layer can be restored from the target color state to the primary color state.
Wherein, because electrochromic layer needs to last to be acted on under the look variable voltage and predetermine duration and just can accomplish the color change reaction, therefore when control electrochromic layer resumes to the primary color, need control above-mentioned second voltage and last to predetermine duration for electrochromic layer can receive the electric field effect that predetermines the second voltage of duration and correspond and accomplish the color change reaction. The preset time period is determined by the electrochromic material in the electrochromic layer.
Step 300, applying a touch driving signal to the touch layer electrically connected to the touch driving electrode under the condition that the electrochromic layer is restored to the primary color, so as to form a third voltage between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode; wherein the third voltage is less than the first voltage.
In step 300, the touch driving signal is a driving signal for making the touch layer enter a touch sensing state. Because under the condition that the electrochromic layer is restored to the primary color state, the electrochromic layer cannot influence the display of the display panel, a touch driving signal can be applied to the touch layer electrically connected with the touch driving electrode, the touch driving signal can form a third voltage between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode, and the third voltage is smaller than the first voltage, namely when the touch layer enters a touch sensing state and the display panel enters a normal display state, the electric field effect between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode cannot cause the electrochromic layer to generate a color change reaction, and the problem that the display effect is influenced because the electrochromic layer is changed to other colors except black and gray when the display panel normally displays is avoided.
In the foregoing embodiment, when the bright screen signal is received, the second voltage is applied between the touch driving electrode and the first electrode to restore the electrochromic layer to the black or gray state, and then the touch layer is driven to enter the touch sensing state, so that the problem that the display effect of the display panel is affected when the display panel normally displays other colors except for black and gray due to the display of the electrochromic layer is avoided.
Optionally, an embodiment of the present application further provides an electronic device, which includes the display panel, a processor, a memory, and a program or an instruction stored in the memory and executable on the processor, where the program or the instruction is executed by the processor to implement each process of the display panel driving method embodiment, and can achieve the same technical effect, and details are not repeated here to avoid repetition.
