Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a film structure of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 3, the display panel 04 includes a substrate 10, a plurality of pixel circuits 03 located on one side of the substrate 10, and a plurality of light emitting elements 05 located on a side of the pixel circuits 03 remote from the substrate 10; the pixel circuit 03 includes a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a third transistor T3; the first electrode T11 of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the data signal line VDATA; the second pole T12 of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the gate T23 of the second transistor T2; the first pole T21 of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the power supply signal line PVDD; the first electrode T31 of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the reset signal line VINT; the second electrode T22 of the second transistor T2 and the second electrode T32 of the third transistor T3 are electrically connected to the light emitting element 05.
Fig. 4 is a schematic layout diagram of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 5 is a schematic layout diagram of a pixel circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 4 and fig. 5, in a pixel circuit 03, a channel region T01 of a first transistor T1 and a channel region T02 of a second transistor T2 are arranged along a first direction M; the channel region T02 of the second transistor T2 and the channel region T03 of the third transistor T3 are arranged along the second direction N; the first direction M intersects the second direction N; the first direction M and the second direction N are both parallel to the plane in which the substrate 10 is located, and both intersect the arrangement direction of the pixel circuits 03.
Wherein the substrate 10 may be transparent, translucent or opaque, the substrate 10 may be a rigid substrate, such as a glass substrate, a silicon substrate, or the like; the substrate 10 may also be a flexible substrate, such as a flexible resinous material, or formed of a thin polymer, and specific materials may include Polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (Polyethylene Terephthalate, PET), polyethylene naphthalate (Polyethylene Naphthalate, PEN), or the like.
In an alternative embodiment, the substrate 10 may further include a buffer layer 11, and the buffer layer 11 may include a multi-layered inorganic, organic layer stack structure to block oxygen and moisture, prevent diffusion of moisture or impurities through the substrate 10, and provide a flat surface on the upper surface of the substrate 10.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the active layer of the transistor includes a channel region overlapping the gate electrode in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate, and source and drain regions doped with impurities, respectively, a first pole and a second pole, or a second pole and a first pole, of the transistor. In an alternative embodiment, the active layer of the transistor may comprise a silicon semiconductor material, such as polysilicon or amorphous silicon; the active layer of the transistor may also include an oxide semiconductor material. The light emitting element 05 electrically connected to the pixel circuit 03 includes, but is not limited to, an OLED, a Mini LED, and a Micro OLED, and the light emitting element 05 includes an anode 051, a light emitting layer 052, and a cathode (the cathode is not shown in the figure).
Specifically, with reference to fig. 4 and 5, the center of gravity of the channel region T01 of the first transistor T1 is the position of the first transistor T1, the center of gravity of the channel region T02 of the second transistor T2 is the position of the second transistor T2, and the center of gravity of the channel region T03 of the third transistor T3 is the position of the third transistor T3. The first transistor T1 and the third transistor T3 are respectively located in different directions of the second transistor T2, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are respectively located in different directions of the first transistor T1, that is, the connecting lines of the positions of the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are broken lines, the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are not arranged on the same straight line, and at most two transistors are simultaneously arranged on each straight line.
For example, with continued reference to fig. 4 and 5, the pixel circuit 03 extends along a third direction X and a fourth direction Y, respectively, each of which is parallel to the plane of the substrate 10, and the third direction X and the fourth direction Y intersect, and in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 10, the pixel circuit 03 is rectangular or diamond-shaped, wherein the pixel circuit 03 is a minimum repeating unit of a circuit structure in the display region in the display panel 04. In an alternative embodiment, the third direction X and the fourth direction Y are perpendicular, and the pixel circuit 03 is rectangular. The first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 may be arranged in one diagonal direction of the pixel circuit 03, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 may be arranged in the other diagonal direction.
Taking the pixel circuit 03 as a rectangle as an example, the length L1 of the pixel circuit 03 in the third direction X and the length L2 of the pixel circuit 03 in the fourth direction Y are smaller than the diagonal length of the pixel circuit 03, the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are disposed in one diagonal direction, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are disposed in the other diagonal direction, so that the length L1 of the pixel circuit 03 in the third direction X and the length L2 of the pixel circuit 03 in the fourth direction Y can be reduced, thereby reducing the area occupied by the pixel circuit 03 and improving the resolution of the display panel 04.
It should be noted that, in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate, the pixel circuit may also be in an irregular shape, and the figure only illustrates, by way of example, a case where the pixel circuit is rectangular in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate, and the shape of the area occupied by the pixel circuit is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention. The channel types of the first transistor, the second transistor and the third transistor in the pixel circuit can be P-type, N-type, or partially P-type, and partially N-type, and the channel types of the transistors in the pixel circuit are not particularly limited in the embodiment of the invention.
In summary, in the embodiment of the invention, the first transistor is arranged to receive the data signal, the second transistor and the third transistor are arranged to transmit the power signal and the reset signal to the anode of the light-emitting element at different stages respectively, so that the light-emitting element is regulated and controlled, the number of transistors in the pixel circuit can be reduced, and the occupied area of the pixel circuit is reduced; the channel region of the first transistor, the channel region of the second transistor and the channel region of the third transistor are respectively arranged along two directions different from the arrangement direction of the pixel circuit, and the connecting lines between the transistors form a triangle, so that one transistor of the pixel circuit is positioned outside the straight line of the other two transistors, the length of the pixel circuit in the direction of the straight line of the two transistors is reduced, in addition, the length of the pixel circuit in the arrangement direction is reduced, the occupied area of the pixel circuit is further reduced, the resolution of the display panel is improved, and the pixel requirement of high resolution is met.
In an alternative embodiment, with continued reference to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5,0.9L 1/L2 1.1.
For example, the length L1 of the pixel circuits 03 in the third direction X may be obtained by dividing the length of all the pixel circuits 03 in the third direction X in the display panel 04 by the number of the pixel circuits 03 arranged in the third direction X, and the length L2 of the pixel circuits 03 in the fourth direction Y may be obtained by dividing the length of all the pixel circuits 03 in the fourth direction Y in the display panel 04 by the number of the pixel circuits 03 arranged in the fourth direction Y. The length L1 of the pixel circuit 03 in the third direction X is approximately equal to the length L2 of the pixel circuit 03 in the fourth direction Y, and the length difference is less than or equal to 1 μm, which is beneficial to uniform display and improves the display effect of the display panel.
Optionally, the length L1 of the pixel circuit in the third direction has a value range: l1 is more than or equal to 7 mu m and less than or equal to 9 mu m; the length L2 of the pixel circuit in the fourth direction has a value range of: l2 is more than or equal to 7 mu m and less than or equal to 9 mu m. Thus, the high-resolution pixel requirement in the near-eye display field can be met.
In order to achieve the high resolution effect and ensure the display effect while achieving the high resolution, the embodiments of the present invention also provide a plurality of setting modes.
In an alternative embodiment, in the pixel circuit 03, part of the transistors may include a silicon semiconductor material, and the other thin film transistors TFT may include an oxide semiconductor material, for example, the active layer of the first transistor T1 is an oxide semiconductor active layer, and the active layer of the second transistor T2 is a silicon active layer.
Exemplary, the active layer of the first transistor T1 may be made of metal oxide materials such as indium gallium zinc oxide (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide, IGZO), indium Tin Zinc Oxide (ITZO), indium zinc aluminum oxide (IAZO), etc., so that the leakage current of the first transistor T1 may be reduced, and the potential of the first node N1 may be maintained stable; the second transistor T2 may be manufactured by using a polysilicon technology such as low temperature polysilicon (Low Temperature Poly-Silicon, LTPS), so that the charging speed of the second transistor T2 may be increased, and the response speed of the pixel circuit 03 may be improved. In addition, the third transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 may be configured to have a dual-gate structure, for example, the second bottom gate T24 is disposed on a side of the active layer of the second transistor T2 away from the gate T23 thereof, and the third bottom gate T34 is disposed on a side of the active layer of the third transistor T3 away from the gate T33 thereof, as shown in fig. 3, so that the control capability of the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 on the channel region T02 and the channel region T03 may be improved, thereby further improving the operation stability and reliability of the pixel circuit 03.
Alternatively, the first transistor T1 at least partially overlaps the second transistor T2 in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 10.
