Specifically, the detection probe 4 may be externally connected to a test device, the test device inputs a test signal to the display area 11 of the array substrate 1 or the circuit module connected to the first electrode 122 or the second electrode 124 through the detection probe 4, the test electrode 13, the first electrode 122, and the second electrode 124, receives a waveform feedback signal output from the display area 11 of the array substrate 1 or the circuit module connected to the first electrode 122 or the second electrode 124, and can know whether the signal output of the circuit module connected to the first electrode 122 or the second electrode 124 is abnormal by determining whether the waveform feedback signal is abnormal, so as to implement signal detection of the circuit module connected to the first electrode 122 and the circuit module connected to the second circuit. The first electrode 122 and the second electrode 124 may be electrically connected to a driving circuit or a thin film transistor switch on the array substrate 1, so that whether the driving circuit or the thin film transistor switch on the array substrate 1 is abnormal or not can be detected through the above detection method.
In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, the array substrate 1 further includes a support structure 15; the support structure 15 is shown disposed on the base layer 121 and around the periphery of the test electrode 13; the spacers 14 are provided on the side of the support structure 15 facing away from the substrate layer 121.
In this embodiment, the supporting structure 15 is used for supporting the spacer 14, the supporting structure 15 is located between the substrate layer 121 and the spacer 14, and due to the arrangement of the supporting structure 15, the spacer 14 can obtain a higher supporting height through the supporting structure 15, and meanwhile, the spacer 14 can also adjust the heights of various parts through the supporting structure 15, so that the surfaces of the spacer 14 away from the substrate layer 121 are located at the same horizontal position, so as to reliably and stably support the color filter substrate 2 and the non-display area 12 of the array substrate 1. The material of the supporting structure 15 includes, but is not limited to, metal, resin, and color resist.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the support structure 15 includes a partial structure of the first electrode 122, the insulating layer 123, and the second electrode 124; the first electrode 122, the insulating layer 123 and the second electrode 124 in the support structure 15 are stacked such that the spacing between the spacer 14 and the base layer 121 is equal to the maximum spacing between the side of the test electrode 13 facing the base layer 121 and the base layer 121.
In this embodiment, the supporting structure 15 is made of a partial structure of the first electrode 122, a partial structure of the insulating layer 123, and a partial structure of the second electrode 124, and the arrangement and thickness of the first electrode 122, the insulating layer 123, and the second electrode 124 may be the same as those of the previous embodiment, that is, the first electrode 122 of the supporting structure 15 is disposed on the base layer 121, the insulating layer 123 is partially disposed on a side of the first electrode 122 facing away from the base layer 121, the second electrode 124 is disposed in the insulating layer 123 and spaced apart from the first electrode 122, and both sides of the second electrode 124 facing and facing away from the first electrode 122 have partial insulating layers 123. Because the test electrode 13 is a metal electrode layer, the thickness of which is very thin and can be almost ignored, the structural design of the support structure 15 in this embodiment can ensure that when the first electrode 122, the insulating layer 123 and the second electrode 124 are disposed on the base layer 121 in the display area 11 of the array substrate 1 in the same manner, the spacers 14 in the display area 11 of the array substrate 1 can maintain the same support height as the spacers 14 in the non-display area 12 of the array substrate 1, so that the display panel composed of the array substrate 1 and the color filter substrate 2 can be uniformly supported by the spacers 14 in the display area and the non-display area of the display panel, thereby preventing the lines under the spacers 14 from being pressed and the load from increasing when the non-display area of the display panel is pressed, because the lines in the non-display area of the display panel are many and sensitive, therefore, the load of the related circuit becomes large, which causes the abnormal output of the circuit in the non-display area of the array substrate 1, and causes the light leakage of the display panel, resulting in the poor display of the display panel.
It should be noted that, because the second electrode 124 does not completely shield the first motor 122 in the vertical light path direction of the array substrate 1, there is actually a case where the surface of the test electrode 13 facing the base layer 121 is partially high and partially low, when the first electrode 122, the insulating layer 123 and the second electrode 124 extend into the display region 11 of the array substrate 1, the spacers disposed in the display area 11 of the array substrate 1 will be referred to the highest position of the insulating layer 123 facing away from the base layer 121, in order to ensure the supporting height of the spacers in the display area 11 and the non-display area 12 of the array substrate 1 is consistent, the spacers 14 in the non-display area 12 in this embodiment are set with the height position of the highest portion of the test electrode 13 as a reference, that is, the spacing between the spacers 14 and the base layer 121 in the non-display area 12 is equal to the maximum spacing between the side of the test electrode 13 facing the base layer 121 and the base layer 121.

By covering the surface of the test electrode 13 with the spacer 14, on one hand, the contact area between the spacer 14 and the test electrode 13 can be increased, the connection tightness between the spacer 14 and the test electrode 13 is improved, and the spacer 14 is prevented from peeling off; on the other hand, the contact area between the spacer 14 and the color film substrate 2 opposite to the array substrate 1 can be increased, so that the stability of the spacer 14 for supporting the array substrate 1 and the color film substrate 2 is improved.

The material of each spacer block 141 includes, but is not limited to, resin or color resist, and the height of each spacer block 141 is the same. The arrangement of the spacer blocks 141 can save the overall material cost of the spacer 14, reduce the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the spacer 14, and simultaneously can give consideration to the stability of supporting the non-display area of the display panel.

Therefore, on the premise of ensuring that the non-display area 12 of the array substrate 1 and the non-display area of the color film substrate 2 are reliably supported by the spacer block 141, the overall size of the spacer 14 is reduced, and the material cost and the manufacturing cost of the spacer 14 are saved.
