The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims of the present application and in the above-described figures, are used for distinguishing between different objects and not for describing a particular sequential order.
The display panel 11 may be a liquid crystal (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD) panel, an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) panel, or the like.
The display panel 1 provided in this embodiment includes a controller 11 for controlling the electrochromic layer 14. For example, the controller 11 may be a printed circuit board (Printed Circuit Board Assembly, PCBA). The controller 11 is provided on one side of the display 12.

The electrochromic layer 14 has a colored state and a non-colored state. The electrochromic layer 14 in the colored state has a color that is capable of occluding at least a portion of the display screen 12. The electrochromic layer 14 in the non-colored state is transparent and can transmit light. Electrochromic layer 14 may comprise one or more electrochromic materials.

When the display screen 12 is in the off-screen state, the controller 11 controls the electrochromic material layer to be in a color-developing state, and plays a role in decorating the display panel 1.
Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing the electrochromic layer 14, the electrochromic layer 14 can be set in a color-developed state to decorate the display panel 1 when the display screen 12 is in the off-screen state, and the electrochromic layer 14 can be set in a non-color-developed state to transmit light of the display screen 12 when the display screen 12 is in the on-screen state, so that the display effect of the display screen 12 is improved.
In this embodiment, by adding a layer of electrochromic layer 14 above the display screen 12, when the display screen 12 is turned off, the electrochromic layer 14 is in an energized state and can be displayed as a set decorative pattern to match with the surrounding environment under circuit control. When the display screen 12 is on, the electrochromic layer 14 is in a power-off state, the electrochromic layer 14 becomes transparent, the display screen 12 displays screen content, and the electrochromic layer 14 is transparent, so that light of the display screen 12 is not absorbed, the display effect of the display screen 12 is not affected, and the display effect is greatly improved. At this time, the first insulating layer 13 and the second insulating layer 15 are transparent, and do not absorb light of the display 12, and do not affect the display effect of the display 12.
Referring to fig. 1-3 together, fig. 3 is a top view of a first insulating layer and an electrochromic layer according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In one embodiment, the first insulating layer 13 and/or the second insulating layer 15 is provided with a connection hole 131, and the electrochromic layer 14 is exposed; the display panel 1 further includes a conductive layer 132, wherein the conductive layer 132 is disposed in the connection hole 131 and electrically connects the electrochromic layer 14 and the controller 11.

The connection hole 131 communicates the electrochromic layer 14 with the outside. The material of the conductive layer 132 may be copper, aluminum, or the like. For example, the first insulating layer 13 and/or the second insulating layer 15 close to the controller 11 are provided with connection holes 131, and the walls of the connection holes 131 are covered with a conductive material such as copper or aluminum to form the conductive layer 132. The conductive layer 132 may be directly electrically connected to the electrochromic layer 14 and the controller 11, or may be indirectly electrically connected to the electrochromic layer 14 and the control line 16 through the conductive line 17. Optionally, the display panel 1 further includes a control line 16, one end of the control line 16 is electrically connected to the conductive layer 132, and the other end is electrically connected to the controller 11.
In this embodiment, the insulating layer is perforated, and the conductive layer 132 is disposed in the hole, so that the controller 11 can control the electric circuit of the electrochromic layer 14. By arranging the conductive layer 132 in the connection hole 131, the conductive layer 132 can be arranged above the display screen 12, so that the probability of mutual interference between the conductive layer 132 and the wires in the display screen 12 is reduced, parasitic capacitance is reduced, and the stability of the display panel 1 is improved.

The first color changing portion 141 and the second color changing portion 142 are provided in the same layer. The electrochromic material of the first color changing portion 141 is different from that of the second color changing portion 142, and in a color development state, the first color changing portion 141 and the second color changing portion 142 may exhibit different colors. By analogy, electrochromic layer 14 may also include a third color-changing portion, a fourth color-changing portion, and so on. Electrochromic materials of the respective color-changing portions are different from each other. For example, the conductive layer 132 is electrically connected to the first color changing portion 141. For another example, the conductive layer 132 is electrically connected to the second color changing portion 142. For another example, the conductive layer 132 electrically connects the first color changing portion 141 and the second color changing portion 142.
Because the first color-changing portion 141 is connected with the second color-changing portion 142, no matter the conductive layer 132 is conducted to either the first color-changing portion 141 or the second color-changing portion 142, the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 can be connected with the conductive layer 132, and the controller 11 can control the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 simultaneously, so that the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 are switched between the non-color-developing state and the color-developing state, and the working efficiency of the display panel 1 is improved.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2, and fig. 4 together, fig. 4 is a top view of a first insulating layer and an electrochromic layer according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The number of conductive wires 17 is less than or equal to the number of color-changing portions. One conductive wire 17 electrically connects one color-changing portion with the conductive layer 132, so that the controller 11 can individually control one color-changing portion to switch between a non-color-developing state and a color-developing state through one conductive wire 17.
In this embodiment, the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 are connected to different conductive wires 17, so that the controller 11 can control the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 separately, thereby providing the electrochromic layer 14 with various display modes and increasing the diversity of display. For example, the first color-changing portion 141 and the second color-changing portion 142 may have different current levels, and the electrochromic material may display different colors, and may have different hues by circuit control, so that the colors are more abundant. For another example, the first color changing portion 141 and the second color changing portion 142 may have the same current. For another example, one of the first color changing portion 141 and the second color changing portion 142 is in a color development state, and the other is in a non-color development state.

In this embodiment, a receiving groove 133 is formed in a surface of the first insulating layer 13 facing away from the display surface 121. For example, a part of the conductive wire 17 is accommodated in the accommodation groove 133. For another example, all the conductive wires 17 are accommodated in the accommodating groove 133. One end of one accommodation groove 133 is communicated with the first color changing part 141, and the other end is communicated with the connecting hole 131. One end of the other accommodating groove 133 is communicated with the second color changing part 142, and the other end is communicated with the connecting hole 131.
On the other hand, the conductive wires 17 are accommodated in the accommodating grooves 133, so that the protrusion of a part of the electrochromic layer 14 can be avoided, and the electrochromic layer 14 is smoothly arranged on the first insulating layer 13.

For another example, all of the conductive lines 17 correspond to a gap region between two adjacent pixel cells 122. At least part of the conductive lines 17 are arranged in the spaced areas of adjacent pixels of the OLED.

In addition, the arrangement can reduce the probability that the conductive wire 17 is developed due to strong light emitted from the side, away from the second insulating layer 15, of the conductive wire 17, that is, the probability that the conductive wire 17 is developed on the display panel 1 is reduced, or the conductive wire 17 is shielded, so that the display effect of the display screen 12 is further improved.
Referring to fig. 1, 2, 4 and 5, in one embodiment, the display screen 12 further includes a black matrix layer 123, the black matrix layer 123 has a plurality of openings for accommodating the pixel units 122, and at least a portion of the orthographic projection of the conductive wires 17 on the display screen 12 is located on the black matrix layer 123.

At least part of the conductive lines 17 are arranged at the LCD display 12 corresponding to the black matrix. This arrangement prevents the conductive lines 17 from blocking light emitted from the pixel units 122. When the display screen 12 is in the bright state, the light emitted by the pixel unit 122 can avoid the conductive wire 17 and be emitted outside through the first insulating layer 13, the electrochromic layer 14 and the second insulating layer 15, so as to improve the display effect of the display screen 12.
In addition, the arrangement can prevent the conductive wire 17 from being developed due to strong light emitted from the side of the conductive wire 17 away from the second insulating layer 15, that is, prevent the conductive wire 17 from being developed on the display panel 1, or shield the conductive wire 17, so as to further improve the display effect of the display screen 12.
