The present invention provides a display panel including, but not limited to, the following embodiments.
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the display panel 100 includes a plurality of pixel units 101 arranged in an array, where each of the pixel units 101 includes: a pixel electrode 102; a common electrode 103; black insertion electrodes 104; and a black insertion switch 105, wherein the black insertion switch 105 includes a first input terminal 01 and a first output terminal 02, the first input terminal 01 is connected to the black insertion electrode 104, and the first output terminal 02 is connected to the pixel electrode 102; when the black insertion switch 105 is turned on, the pixel unit 101 is in a black insertion state, and the potentials of the common electrode 103 and the pixel electrode 102 are the same, so that the pixel unit 101 is driven to present a black picture; when the black insertion switch 105 is turned on, the black insertion electrode 104 loaded with a black insertion voltage is electrically connected to the pixel electrode 102 through the black insertion switch 105, so that the pixel electrode 102 and the common electrode 103 drive the pixel unit 101 to present a black picture, so that the pixel unit 101 is in a black insertion state.
The display panel 100 may be a liquid crystal display panel, an OLED display panel, or a Mini LED display panel. For example, when the display panel 100 is a liquid crystal display panel, a plurality of liquid crystal molecules are disposed between each pixel electrode 102 and the corresponding common electrode 103, and when a voltage difference exists between the pixel electrode 102 and the corresponding common electrode 103, a corresponding electric field is generated, which drives the plurality of liquid crystal molecules to deflect, so that the corresponding pixel unit 101 presents a corresponding picture. For another example, when the display panel 100 is an OLED display panel, the pixel electrode 102 may be an anode, the common electrode 103 may be a cathode, a corresponding light emitting portion is disposed between each anode and the corresponding cathode, a corresponding electric field is generated when the anode and the corresponding cathode have a voltage difference, holes generated by the anode and electrons generated by the cathode move under the action of the electric field and migrate to the light emitting layer, and when the two meet at the light emitting layer, energy excitons are generated to excite light emitting molecules to finally generate visible light, so that the corresponding pixel unit 101 presents a corresponding picture. For another example, when the display panel 100 is a Mini LED display panel, reference may be made to the above description regarding the OLED display panel, except that the constituent material of the light emitting layer in the Mini LED display panel is an inorganic material, such as a metal, rather than an organic material, as in the OLED display panel.
Specifically, the display panel 100 is described as an example of a liquid crystal display panel. Generally, the pixel electrode 102 is applied with a data voltage, the common electrode 103 is applied with a common voltage, the data voltage may be a signal related to a displayed image, and the common voltage may be a constant voltage signal, such that the corresponding plurality of liquid crystal molecules between the pixel electrode 102 and the corresponding common electrode 103 are deflected to make the corresponding pixel unit 101 present a corresponding picture. It can be understood that, when the pixel unit 101 is in the black insertion state, the black insertion switch 105 is turned on, and the black insertion voltage applied to the black insertion electrode 104 can be transmitted to the pixel electrode 102 through the black insertion switch 105, that is, when the pixel electrode 102 has the black insertion voltage and the common electrode 103 has the common voltage, and an electric field generated by a difference between the black insertion voltage and the common voltage can drive the corresponding plurality of liquid crystal molecules to be in the corresponding deflection state, so as to further make the corresponding pixel unit 101 present a black picture.
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the display panel 100 further includes a plurality of data lines 03 arranged at intervals, and each of the pixel units 101 further includes: a display switch 106, where the display switch 106 includes a second input end 04 and a second output end 05, the second input end 04 is connected to the corresponding data line 03, and the second output end 05 is connected to the pixel electrode 102; when the display switch 106 is turned on, the common electrode 103 is loaded with a common voltage, and the pixel electrode 102 is loaded with a data voltage, so that the pixel unit 101 is in a display state.
As shown in fig. 2, the plurality of data lines 03 may correspond to a plurality of columns of the pixel units 101 one to one, one data line 03 may be disposed between two adjacent columns of the pixel units 101, and the data line 03 may be electrically connected to one corresponding column of the pixel units 101. Specifically, the second input terminals 04 of each column are loaded by the corresponding data lines 03 to be corresponding data voltages, and each data voltage may have a corresponding voltage value in different time periods; further, a plurality of rows of the display switches 106 may be sequentially turned on at different periods of time, such that the plurality of pixel electrodes 102 in each row are loaded with corresponding data voltage values through the corresponding plurality of display switches 106 at corresponding periods of time, respectively; further, taking the display panel 100 as an example of a liquid crystal display panel, as can be seen from the above analysis, a difference between the data voltage value of the pixel electrode 102 and the common voltage value of the common electrode 103 generates a corresponding electric field, so that a plurality of liquid crystal molecules between the pixel electrode 102 and the common electrode 103 are deflected to make the corresponding pixel unit 101 display a corresponding picture, that is, each of the pixel electrode 102 and the common electrode 103 drives the corresponding pixel unit 101 to display a picture.
It should be noted that, in order to achieve a high-quality display state and a black insertion state, the periods in which the plurality of pixel units 101 in each row are in the display state and the periods in the black insertion state should not intersect, that is, the plurality of black insertion switches 105 and the plurality of display switches 106 in the same row cannot be simultaneously in the on state.
It can be understood from the above analysis that the principle of black insertion of the display panel 100 is as follows: the black insertion switch 105 is turned on, the black insertion voltage loaded on the black insertion electrode 104 is transmitted to the pixel electrode 102 through the black insertion switch 105, an electric field generated by a difference value between the black insertion voltage loaded on the pixel electrode 102 and the common voltage loaded on the common electrode 103 can drive a plurality of corresponding liquid crystal molecules to be in a corresponding deflection state, and further the corresponding pixel unit 101 presents a black picture, that is, the black insertion is realized by arranging the black insertion switch 105 and the black insertion electrode 104 in the present invention.
In summary, in the present invention, black insertion does not require that each data line 03 serially transmit a black insertion signal to a corresponding row of pixel units 101 by compressing the time for transmitting the data voltage, so that the corresponding pixel units 101 present the black frame; instead, one row of the pixel units 101 is set to be in the display state at any time interval, and in parallel, at least one other row of the pixel units 101 is set to be in the black insertion state, so that each data line 03 can transmit the data voltage to only one corresponding column of the pixel units 101 in each cycle to realize that the corresponding pixel unit 101 presents the display picture, and a reserved time is not required to transmit the black insertion signal to the corresponding column of the pixel units 101 in each cycle, so that the refresh rate of the data voltage does not need to be increased, and the requirement for high output frequency of a driving circuit can be reduced.
In an embodiment, when the pixel unit 101 is in the black insertion state, the common electrode 103 loads the common voltage, and a difference between the black insertion voltage and the common voltage is smaller than a preset value. It should be noted that the preset value is related to the properties of the corresponding liquid crystal molecules, and the preset value may be selected to limit the difference between the black insertion voltage and the common voltage according to the properties of the corresponding liquid crystal molecules, so as to realize that the corresponding pixel unit 101 presents a black frame. For example, when the corresponding liquid crystal molecules have a property that the absolute value of the deflection angle and the difference are in positive correlation, and the gray level value of the picture displayed by the corresponding pixel unit 101 and the absolute value of the deflection angle are in positive correlation, the difference between the black insertion voltage and the common voltage may be 0.
In an embodiment, the display switch 106 and the black insertion switch 105 may be thin film transistors. Specifically, the control end of the display switch 106 may be a gate of the corresponding thin film transistor, and the second input end 04 and the second output end 05 of the display switch 106 may be a source and a drain of the corresponding thin film transistor, respectively; similarly, the control end of the black insertion switch 105 may be a gate of the corresponding thin film transistor, and the first input end 01 and the first output end 02 of the black insertion switch 105 may be a source and a drain of the corresponding thin film transistor, respectively.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, when one row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state, another row or multiple rows of the pixel units 101 are in the black insertion state, and further, a period during which any row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state includes a period during which another row or multiple rows of the pixel units 101 are in the black insertion state.
It should be noted that the display state can be understood as a state in which the display switch 106 in the corresponding pixel unit 101 is turned on, and further, each row of the pixel units 101 can also have a sustain state, where the sustain state is located between two adjacent display states and the black insertion state. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1-2, each of the pixel units 101 may further include a storage capacitor 108, two ends of the storage capacitor 108 are electrically connected to the corresponding pixel electrode 102 and the corresponding common electrode 103, respectively, when the display switch 106 and the black insertion switch 105 are both in the off state, and the storage capacitor 108 may maintain the potential of the corresponding pixel electrode 102 at the previous potential in the last display state, so that the corresponding pixel unit 101 still presents the display image.
Specifically, the period in which any row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state includes another row or multiple rows of the periods in which the pixel units 101 are in the black insertion state, which may include, but is not limited to, the following two embodiments: in the first aspect, the period during which any one row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state may include a first period during which another row of the pixel units 101 is in the black insertion state, and a second period during which a different row of the pixel units 101 from the above two rows is in the black insertion state; in the second aspect, in the period in which any one row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state, another plurality of rows of the pixel units 101 are in the black insertion state. It is understood that, after the rows of the pixel units 101 in the display panel 100 sequentially experience the corresponding plurality of display states, the respective display frames are finally presented at the same time at the last time of one frame of the display panel 100 to form a complete frame of the display frame, and the corresponding time periods are sequentially selected in parallel so that the rows of the pixel units 101 in the display panel 100 respectively experience the corresponding plurality of display states in a time-sharing or partially time-sharing manner.
In an embodiment, the display panel 100 may include n rows of the pixel units 101, and the time period during which the corresponding plurality of the display switches 106 in the ith row of the pixel units 101 are turned on includes the time period during which the corresponding plurality of the black insertion switches 105 in the (i + j) th row or the (i + k) th row to the (i + k + h) th row of the pixel units 101 are turned on, wherein the i, the (i + j), the (i + k), and the (i + k + h) are not less than 1 and not more than n, and the j and the k are not less than 2, that is, at least one row of the pixel units 101 is spaced between two rows of the pixel units 101 in the display state and the black insertion state at the same time, and is transmitted to the pixel units 101 in the next rows according to the above rule, which can be understood that the first time when the display switches 106 in the pixel units 101 in each row are turned on and the first time when the black insertion switches 105 are turned on can be avoided Too far in time causes the display panel 100 to render a frame of the complete display darker.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the period of time that any row of the pixel units 101 is in the display state includes a period of time that another row of the pixel units 101 is in the black insertion state.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, assuming that the display panel 100 includes n rows of the pixel units 101, when the display panel 100 appears as the last time of the complete display screen of the previous frame, the display switch 105 of the 1 st row is in an on state, the black insertion switch 105 of the 3 rd row is also in an on state, that is, in the time period in which the pixel unit 101 of the 1 st row refreshes the black insertion screen into the display screen of the present frame, the pixel unit 101 of the 3 rd row refreshes the display screen of the previous frame into the black insertion screen … …, and so on, the display switch 105 of the (n-2) th row is in an on state, the black insertion switch 105 of the nth row is also in an on state, that is, in the time period in which the pixel unit 101 of the (n-2) th row refreshes the black insertion screen into the display screen of the present frame, the pixel unit 101 of the nth row refreshes the display screen of the previous frame into the black insertion screen, until the display switch 105 in the nth row is turned on, the black insertion switch 105 in the 2 nd row is also turned on, that is, the pixel unit 101 in the nth row refreshes the black insertion picture into the display picture of the current frame, and the pixel unit 101 in the 2 nd row refreshes the display picture of the current frame into the black insertion picture.
