When the liquid crystal display panel is driven by alternating current, positive and negative voltages deviate from the symmetrical center, the voltage deviating from the symmetrical center is direct current bias voltage, the voltage causes the directional accumulation of moving charges in the liquid crystal layer, and the charges cause the alignment film to generate induced polarization and further adsorb free ions to generate charges; as the voltage is applied for a longer time, the charge residue generated by the electrostatic charge separation electrode inside the alignment film increases, and when no voltage is applied, the charge residue generated by the electrostatic charge separation electrode forms a residual dc voltage, so that the liquid crystal molecules are not driven by the signal voltage, and the image sticking occurs.

Detailed Description
The embodiments of the present invention will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the invention are shown. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, fig. 1 is a schematic top view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 2 is an enlarged schematic view of an area S of the display panel of fig. 1, and fig. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of fig. 2 along a sectional line a-a'; the display panel 1 provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises an array substrate 11, a color film substrate 12 and a liquid crystal layer 13, wherein the liquid crystal layer 13 is positioned between the array substrate 11 and the color film substrate 12. The array substrate 11 comprises a substrate 100, a common electrode layer 103, a first insulating layer 105, a pixel electrode layer 104, a connection pattern C1 and an alignment layer 106, wherein the first insulating layer 105 is located between the common electrode layer 103 and the pixel electrode layer 104, the pixel electrode layer 104 is located on the side of the common electrode layer 103 away from the substrate 100, and the alignment layer 106 is located on the side of the pixel electrode layer 104 away from the substrate 100, so that the substrate 100, the common electrode layer 103, the first insulating layer 105, the pixel electrode layer 104 and the alignment layer 106 are arranged on one side of the array substrate 11 from bottom to top; it should be noted that fig. 2 only shows a part of the film layers in order to more intuitively illustrate the design of the present invention, and the thickness of each film layer in fig. 3 does not represent the corresponding film layer thickness in the actual product.
As shown in fig. 1, the display panel 1 has a plurality of sub-pixel units P arranged in an array, the sub-pixel units P include pixel electrodes PE, and the display panel 1 further includes a plurality of scan lines 101 extending along a first direction X; as shown in fig. 2, along the first direction X, at least a portion of an area between two adjacent pixel electrodes PE is a first area a1, the first insulating layer 105 has at least one first through portion K1 (indicated by a dotted line in fig. 2), the first through portion K1 exposes a portion of the common electrode layer 103, and in a direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, a projection of the first through portion K1 is located in the first area a1, the connection pattern C1 has conductivity, a projection of the connection pattern C1 at least covers a projection of the first through portion K1, the connection pattern C1 does not overlap with the projection of the pixel electrodes PE, and the connection pattern C1 contacts both the common electrode layer 103 and the alignment layer 106.
As described in the background art, the liquid crystal layer 13 of the conventional liquid crystal display panel contains ionic impurities, and a dc bias voltage exists in the liquid crystal cell, which causes the directional accumulation of mobile charges in the liquid crystal layer 13, and these charges cause the alignment film 106 to generate induced polarization and further adsorb free ions to generate charges; on one hand, according to the invention, the first penetrating part K1 is disposed on the first insulating layer 105, the first penetrating part K1 exposes part of the common electrode layer 103, and the connection pattern C1 at least covers the first penetrating part K1, that is, the connection pattern C1 is at least partially located in the first penetrating part K1, and the connection pattern C1 is electrically connected to the common electrode layer 103, meanwhile, the connection pattern C1 is in contact with the alignment layer 106, and the connection pattern C1 has conductivity, so that the impurity ions remaining in the alignment layer 106 can be introduced into the common electrode layer 103 through the connection pattern C1 and then be conducted away through the common electrode layer 103, thereby reducing ion accumulation in the box, accelerating ion dissipation in the box, and improving the afterimage of the display panel; on the other hand, because the common electrode is thinner and the first through portion K1 is formed by etching the first insulating layer 105 in the process, the first through portion K1 exposes a portion of the common electrode, which may be damaged by etching, and thus cannot block the organic film layer on the array substrate 11 on the side of the common electrode close to the substrate 100, such as the evaporation of the material of the planarization layer, and the connection pattern C1 is disposed on the common electrode, which is equivalent to enhancing the blocking capability of the common electrode, so that in the subsequent process, it is possible to suppress the gas formed by some chemical components in the organic film layer from overflowing into the liquid crystal cell, thereby reducing the occurrence of bubbles in the liquid crystal cell due to the evaporation of the material in the organic film layer, ensuring the normal display and better reliability of the display panel, and at the same time, since the first insulating layer 105 is etched, the damage to the common electrode layer 103 is caused, the thickness of the common electrode layer 103 may be non-uniform, and the connection pattern C1 provided on the common electrode layer 103 may reduce the difference in flatness caused by the non-uniform thickness of the common electrode layer 103, thereby ensuring normal display of the display panel.
Optionally, with continuing reference to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the array substrate 11 further includes a data line 102, the data line 102 extends along a second direction Y, and the first direction X intersects with the second direction Y, it should be noted that the present invention does not limit the extending direction of the data line 102 in the same row or two adjacent rows, that is, in the same row, the extending direction of the data line 102 may change or the extending direction of the data line 102 may change in two adjacent rows; the extending direction of the first through portion K1 is the same as the extending direction of the data line 102, the plurality of first through portions K1 are communicated with each other to form the through grooves K11, and the extending direction of the through grooves K11 is the same as the extending direction of the data line 102, but the number of the through grooves K11 is not limited in the present invention, for example, in fig. 2, the number of the through grooves K11 is 1 in the first area a1 between two adjacent pixel electrodes PE, and in other embodiments of the present invention, the number of the through grooves K11 may be 2 or more. Through the fact that the plurality of first penetrating parts K1 are communicated with one another in the first area A1 to form the through groove K11, the first insulating layer 105 is enabled to have a large hollow area, the public electrode in the area with the large area can be exposed, impurity ions remaining on the alignment layer 106 can be led into the public electrode layer 103 through the connecting pattern C1 in a large amount and then led away through the public electrode layer 103, ion accumulation in the box can be reduced to a large extent, ion dissipation in the box is accelerated, and image sticking of the display panel is improved.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, fig. 4 is another enlarged schematic view of the area of the display panel S of fig. 1, and fig. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along the sectional line a1-a 1' of fig. 4; along the extending direction of the data line 102, that is, the second direction Y, two adjacent rows of through grooves K11 are isolated from each other, as shown in fig. 4, the through grooves K111 and the through grooves K112 are two adjacent rows of through grooves, the through grooves K111 and the through grooves K112 are isolated from each other, that is, the first insulating layer 105 still exists in the region between the through grooves K111 and the through grooves K112, so that impurity ions remaining on the alignment layer 106 can be led into the common electrode layer 103 through the connection pattern C1 more, and then led away through the common electrode layer 103, under the condition that ions in the box are quickly dissipated, the common electrode layer 103 can be prevented from being damaged by etching in a larger area, thereby reducing the phenomenon that a large amount of gas generated by the organic film layer overflows into the liquid crystal box to a certain extent, and ensuring normal display and reliability of the display panel.
Alternatively, the connection patterns C1 respectively located above two adjacent rows of through grooves K111 and K112 may be isolated, or may be connected together, and the present invention is not limited thereto, for example, in fig. 4, the connection patterns C1 located above two adjacent rows of through grooves K111 and K112 are isolated.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 4 and fig. 5, the display panel 1 further includes a supporting pillar 107, and in the above design, in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, the projection of the supporting pillar 107 may be located between two adjacent rows of the through grooves K11, because the first insulating layer 105 still exists in the area between two adjacent rows of the through grooves K11, the area is not etched by the first insulating layer 105, and is flatter than the area of the through grooves K11, and the supporting pillar 107 supports or stands in the area, so that the display panel can be ensured to have good supporting performance.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 6, fig. 6 is another enlarged schematic view of the area of the display panel S of fig. 1; along the extending direction of the data line 102, that is, the second direction Y, two adjacent rows of through grooves K11 have a connecting portion C2, and along the first direction X, the maximum width H1 of the connecting portion C2 is greater than the width H2 of the through groove K11, on one hand, in the extending direction of the data line 102, a whole through groove K11 is etched on the first insulating layer 105, so that the first insulating layer 105 has a larger hollow area, thereby exposing the common electrode in a larger area, so that the impurity ions remaining on the alignment layer 106 can be more introduced into the common electrode layer 103 through the connecting pattern C1, and then are conducted away through the common electrode layer 103, thereby greatly reducing ion accumulation in the box, accelerating ion dissipation in the box, and improving the afterimage of the display panel; on the other hand, in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, since the projection of the connection portion C2 between the two rows of through grooves K11 overlaps the projection portion of the scan line 11, that is, the connection portion C2 is located above the scan line 11, and the scan line 11 is usually covered by the black matrix located on the color filter substrate 12, the maximum width H1 of the connection portion C2 along the first direction is set to be greater than the width H2 of the through groove K11, so that normal display of the display panel is not affected, the hollow area of the first insulating layer 105 can be further increased, and the common electrode with a certain area can be further exposed, so that more impurity ions remaining on the alignment layer 106 can be guided into the common electrode layer 103 through the connection pattern C1 and then guided away through the common electrode layer 103, thereby greatly reducing ion accumulation in the box, accelerating ion dissipation in the box, and on the basis of not affecting display, the afterimage of the display panel is improved to a great extent.
Optionally, with reference to fig. 6, in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, the projection of the connection pattern C1 covers the projection of the connection portion C2, so as to ensure that the portion exposed out of the common electrode layer 103 can be covered by the connection pattern C1, thereby preventing a large amount of gas generated by the organic film layer from overflowing into the liquid crystal cell, and ensuring normal display and reliability of the display panel.
Optionally, referring to fig. 7 and 8, fig. 7 is a further enlarged schematic view of the display panel S area of fig. 1, and fig. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the sectional line a2-a 2' of fig. 7; under the above design, in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, the projection of the supporting column 107 can be located within the projections of the through groove K11 and the connecting portion C2, as shown in fig. 7, the supporting column 107 can be set to be longer than the length of the through groove K11 in the extending direction of the through groove K11 in the first direction X, so that the supporting column 107 can be embedded into the recess where the through groove K11 is located, thereby ensuring that the supporting column 107 does not slide under the action of external force, and thus ensuring that the display panel has good support.

Optionally, referring to fig. 9 and 10, fig. 9 is another enlarged schematic view of the display panel S region of fig. 1, and fig. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view of fig. 9 along the sectional line B-B'; in the direction perpendicular to the array substrate 11, the connection pattern C1 coincides with the edge projections of the two opposite sides of the first through portion K1 along the first direction X, that is, the connection pattern C1 is aligned with the edge of the first through portion K1 in the first direction X, optionally, as shown in fig. 8, when the connection pattern C1 is aligned with the edge of the first through portion K1 in the first direction X, the first through portion K1 is located in the projection of the black matrix 121 of the color filter substrate 12, and the connection pattern C1 is also located in the projection of the black matrix 121 of the color filter substrate 12, so as to ensure that the first through portion K1 and the connection pattern C1 are both located in the projection of the non-transmission region, and the connection pattern C1 does not block the transmission region, thereby ensuring the display uniformity in the transmission region; the connection pattern C1 is aligned with the first through portion K1 along the first direction X, so that the connection pattern C1 is effectively isolated from the pixel electrode, thereby preventing the liquid crystal display from being affected.
