Description

Screen lower fingerprint identification circuit and laminated structure thereof, display panel and fingerprint acquisition method
Technical Field
The present invention relates to under-screen fingerprint identification, and more particularly, to an under-screen fingerprint identification circuit, a stack structure matched with the under-screen fingerprint identification circuit, a display panel having the stack structure, and a fingerprint capture method for the display panel.
Background
In recent years, fingerprint recognition has become the standard equipment of intelligent electronic products, and in the early capacitive fingerprint recognition, a sensor is composed of a plurality of tiny capacitor arrays, when a user touches the sensor with a finger, the finger will contact the capacitor at the convex part of the fingerprint, but will not contact the concave part of the fingerprint, so that capacitance difference is generated, and the fingerprint can be drawn. However, the capacitive fingerprint sensor occupies a part of the surface of the smart electronic product, and the recent design trend of the smart electronic product is toward the design of a full screen, so that the capacitive fingerprint sensor gradually disappears in the smart electronic product.
Instead, there are two under-screen fingerprint recognition technologies, such as an optical fingerprint recognition structure (hereinafter referred to as an under-screen fingerprint recognition technology) combined in a liquid crystal screen stack of a smart electronic product, or an ultrasonic fingerprint recognition structure combined in the liquid crystal screen stack, in terms of the under-screen fingerprint recognition technology, an equivalent optical fingerprint recognition sensing circuit 11 and an equivalent driving circuit 12 of each pixel 10 in a fingerprint recognition area of a liquid crystal screen are two independent and unconnected circuits (as shown in fig. 1), a common equivalent optical fingerprint recognition sensing circuit 11 is a 3T1C circuit (as shown in fig. 2), and the equivalent driving circuit 12 is a 1T1C circuit (as shown in fig. 3) or a 2T1C circuit.

In summary, since the equivalent driving circuit 12 and the equivalent optical fingerprint sensor circuit 11 are two independent circuits, therefore, many equivalent electronic components required for making equivalent circuits are required in the liquid crystal screen stack structure 13, which reduces the aperture ratio of the liquid crystal screen stack structure 13 and affects the overall light emitting efficiency, and moreover, the position of the transparent conductive layer 134 of the fingerprint identification area 132 is completely different from the position of the transparent conductive layer 134 of the display area 130 and the touch area 130, the manufacturing process of the conventional optical under-screen fingerprint identification technology becomes more complicated, which reduces the production yield, therefore, how to improve the equivalent driving circuit and equivalent optical fingerprint recognition sensing circuit of the optical under-screen fingerprint recognition technology, further, it is an urgent problem to improve the aperture ratio, improve the stacked structure of the liquid crystal display, and reduce the complicated manufacturing process.
