Description

移位寄存器单元及其驱动方法、 移位寄存器与显示装置 技术领域
本发明涉及显示领域, 尤其涉及一种移位寄存器单元及其驱动方法、 移 位寄存器与显示装置。 背景技术
氧化物薄膜晶体管 (氧化物 TFT) 是大尺寸有源矩阵有机发光二极管 (AMOLED)显示器 /液晶显示器(LCD)的发展方向,因此在现有 GOA (Gate On Array, 阵列基板上制作栅极驱动) 中, 被广泛采用。
氧化物 TFT特性之一是具有耗尽型的特点,即氧化物 TFT的阈值电压为 负, 这导致现有 GOA实现上一直存在漏电流的问题。
在如附图 1所示的现有 GOA典型电路中, 在预充电阶段, 由于 T14存 在较大漏电情况, 因此导致对 T11栅极的充电效果变差; 在上拉阶段, 由于 T12、 T13和 T14的栅极电平最低只能到 VGL, 而 T12、 T13和 T14的源极 也为 VGL, 则 T12、 T13和 T14的栅源电压 Vgs最小为 0, 由于氧化物 TFT 的阈值电压小于 0, 因此 T12, T13和 T14仍处于微导通状态, 具有较大的漏 电电流, 造成 T11的栅极和源极都趋向 VGL漏电而影响 GOA电路的正常上 拉和输出, 而在下拉阶段, 由于 T12、 T14无法正常关断,也会造成在下拉波 形的畸变, 影响下拉效果, 从而影响 GOA电路的可靠性和功耗。 发明内容

关断模块 4, 与上拉节点 PU连接, 并与处于预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3 之间的第一节点 LK连接, 用于在上拉阶段断开上拉节点 PU与预充电模块 2 和下拉模块 3的电连接。
本发明实施例提供的移位寄存器单元, 可以在上拉阶段, 完全断开上拉 节点 PU与预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3的电连接,从而可以解决 GOA电路的 漏电过大问题, 有效解决了采用氧化物薄膜晶体管(TFT) 的 GOA电路的可 靠性和功耗问题。
附图 2中,关断模块 4与第一电容 C1第二端之间的虚线,用于表示在不 同的实施例中,关断模块 4与第一电容 C1第二端存在电连接或不存在电连接 的关系。
在本发明一具体实施例中, 如附图 3所示, 关断模块 4具体可以包括: 第一薄膜晶体管 T1即关断晶体管, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1的源极与第一节 点 LK连接, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1的栅极与第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB连接, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1的漏极与上拉节点 PU连接;
关断控制单元 41, 用于在上拉阶段, 通过控制所述第一薄膜晶体管 T1 的源极电压使得所述第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于完全截止状态,以断开所述上拉 节点 PU与预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3的电连接。

那么, 当输入信号的时序关系如附图 5所示时, 该实施例提供的移位寄 存器单元的具体工作过程可如下所示:
在预充电阶段即 A阶段, 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入高电平信号, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于导通状态即开启, 上拉节点 PU和第一节点 LK被上 拉至高电平电位, 第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入低电平信号, 信号输出端 OUTPUT输出低电平信号,反馈电容 C2的第一端即第一节点 LK处的电压为
Figure imgf000008_0001
在上拉阶段即阶段 B (也可以称之为输出阶段), 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入低电平信号, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于截止状态, 第一时钟信号输 入端 CLK输入高电平信号, 信号输出端 OUTPUT输出高电平信号, 反馈电 容 C2两端电压保持不变, 则第一节点 LK同上拉节点 PU—样被上拉至更高 的电位, 此时第一节点 LK处的电压为 2VQH-VQL, 则第一薄膜晶体管 T1 的 栅源电压 VGL -(2VGH-VGL)=2 VGL -2 VGH , 由于 取值约为 -8V, VGH 取值约为 5V,而第一薄膜晶体管 Tl的阈值电压 VTH取值约为 -1V,那么此时 第一薄膜晶体管 T1 的栅源电压 VQS约等于 -26V<VTH<0, 为深度负电压, 因 此,第一薄膜晶体管 T1被完全关闭,第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于完全截止状态, 上拉节点 PU与第一节点 LK之间的电连接被完全切断, 即上拉节点 PU点与 预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3之间的电连接被完全切断, 解决了由于 TFT耗尽 型特性造成的预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3关断不严和漏电流过大, 上拉节点 PU和信号输出端 OUTPUT输出波形畸变, 最终导致 G0A失效的问题。
在另一具体实施例中,如附图 6所示,关断控制单元 41具体还可以包括: 第二薄膜晶体管 T2, 第二薄膜晶体管 Τ2的源极, 与上拉模块 1和下拉 模块 3连接, 第二薄膜晶体管 T2的栅极与第一时钟信号输入端 CLK连接, 第二薄膜晶体管 T2的漏极, 与所述第一薄膜晶体管 T1的源极连接。
另外,在不同的实施例中,第二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极还可以与第一电容 C1的第二端、 栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate连接 (具体可如附图 6所示, 所述栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate即图 6中所示的 OUTPUT端), 或者第 二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极还可以与起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV连接(具体 可如附图 10 » )。
那么, 当输入信号的时序关系同样如附图 5所示时, 该实施例提供的移 位寄存器单元的具体工作过程可如下所示:
在预充电阶段即 A阶段, 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入高电平信号, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于导通状态, 上拉节点 PU和第一节点 LK被上拉至高 电平电位, 第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入低电平信号, 第二薄膜晶体管 T2 处于截止状态, 信号输出端 OUTPUT输出低电平信号, 第一节点 LK处的电 压为 VeH
在上拉阶段即阶段 B, 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入低电平信号, 第 一薄膜晶体管 T1处于截止状态,第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入高电平信号, 第二薄膜晶体管 T2处于导通状态, 信号输出端 OUTPUT输出高电平信号, 由于第二薄膜晶体管 T2导通, 因此, 信号输出端 OUTPUT输出高电平信号 被反馈至第一节点 LK处, 则第一节点 LK处的电压约为 VGH, 则第一薄膜 晶体管 T1的栅源电压 Ve^ VeL -VeH, 由于 V(jL取值约为 -8V, VGH取值约 为 5V,而第一薄膜晶体管 T1的阈值电压 VTH取值约为 -IV,那么此时第一薄 膜晶体管 T1 的栅源电压 VQS约等于 -13V<VTH<0, 为深度负电压, 因此, 第 一薄膜晶体管 T1被完全关闭, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于完全截止状态, 上拉 节点 PU与第一节点 LK之间的电连接被完全切断, 即上拉节点 PU点与预充 电模块 2和下拉模块 3之间的电连接被完全切断, 解决了由于 TFT耗尽型特 性造成的预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3关断不严和漏电流过大, 上拉节点 PU 和信号输出端 OUTPUT输出波形畸变, 最终导致 GOA失效的问题。
由于在如附图 6所示的电路结构中,第二薄膜晶体管 T2的栅极与第一时 钟信号输入端 CLK连接, 而第二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极, 其实质上与第一时 钟信号输入端 CLK之间也存在电连接关系, 因此, 如附图 6所示的关断控制 单元 41还可以存在另一种替代形式。
具体的, 所述替代方式如附图 7所示:
第二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极, 与上拉模块 1和下拉模块 3连接,第二薄膜 晶体管 T2的栅极与第二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极连接, 第二薄膜晶体管 T2的 漏极, 与所述第一薄膜晶体管 T1的源极连接。
同样,在不同的实施例中,第二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极还可以与第一电容 C1的第二端、 栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate连接 (具体可如附图 7所示, 所述栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate即图 7中所示的 OUTPUT端), 或者第 二薄膜晶体管 T2的源极还可以与起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV连接(具体 可如附图 11麻 )。
由于附图 7所示的移位寄存器的工作过程, 与附图 6所示的移位寄存器 类似, 即在上拉阶段, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1 的栅源电压 VGS 约等于 -13V<VTH<0, 为深度负电压, 因此, 在此实施例中, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1 也 可以被完全关闭, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1处于完全截止状态, 上拉节点 PU与第 一节点 LK之间的电连接也可以被完全切断,即上拉节点 PU点与预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3之间的电连接也可以被完全切断, 同样也解决了由于 TFT耗 尽型特性造成的预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3关断不严和漏电流过大, 上拉节 点 PU和信号输出端 OUTPUT输出波形畸变, 最终导致 GOA失效的问题。
在一具体实施例中, 关断模块 4还可以以附图 8所示的电路结构呈现。 在该实施例中, 关断模块 4具体可以包括:

第三薄膜晶体管 T3的源极与第一节点 LK连接, 第三薄膜晶体管 T3的 栅极与第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB连接。
由于附图 8所示的移位寄存器的工作过程, 与附图 6所示的移位寄存器 类似,即在上拉阶段,第一薄膜晶体管 T1的栅源电压 VQS约等于 -13V<VTH<0, 为深度负电压, 第一薄膜晶体管 T1也可以被完全关闭, 而且, 由于在上拉阶 段, 第三薄膜晶体管 T3 也处于截止状态, 从而使上拉节点 PU与第一节点 LK之间的连接链路上,存在两个处于截止状态的晶体管(其中第一薄膜晶体 管 T1处于完全截止状态), 从而形成关断的双保险, 因此, 上拉节点 PU与 第一节点 LK之间的电连接也可以被完全切断,即上拉节点 PU点与预充电模 块 2和下拉模块 3之间的电连接也可以被完全切断, 同样也解决了由于 TFT 耗尽型特性造成的预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3关断不严和漏电流过大, 上拉 节点 PU和信号输出端 OUTPUT输出波形畸变, 最终导致 GOA失效的问题。

步骤 174, 在复位维持阶段, 关断模块 4处于截止状态, 上拉节点 PU和 第一节点 LK的电位被维持在所述第三电位。
下面为如附图 18所示的移位寄存器单元,采用如附图 5所示的信号时序 图为例, 对本发明实施例提供的移位寄存器驱动方法的一个具体实现过程进 行详细的描述, 该过程具体可以包括:
在阶段 A预充电阶段: 第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入低电平信号例如 VGL,第二时钟信号时输入端 CLKB输入高电平信号例如 VQH,起始信号输入 端 STV输入为高电平信号例如 VeH; 此时, Tl、 T6-T11均处于导通状态, Τ4和 Τ5处于截止状态, 栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate输出第二电平信号 输入端 VGL2输入的低电平信号 VQL2, 起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV输出 第一电平信号输入端 VGL1输入的低电平信号 VQU, 第一节点 LK和上拉节 点 PU 的电位被上拉至高电平电位, 则第一节点 LK 的电压具体可为的 VGH-VGL1 , 而下拉节点 PD的电位等于第一电平信号输入端 VGL1输入的低 电平信号 VQU
在阶段 B上拉阶段:第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入高电平信号例如 VQH, 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入低电平信号例如 VQL, 起始信号输入端 STV 输入为低电平信号例如 VQL, Tl、 T6-T11均处于截止状态, Τ4和 Τ5处于导 通状态,栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate和起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV均 输出高电平信号,第一节点 LK和上拉节点 PU的电位被进一步上拉, 则第一 节点 LK此时的电压为 2 VGH-VGL1,则 T1的栅源电压
Figure imgf000014_0001
VGL1 -(2VGH-VGL1)=2 VGL1 -2 VGH, 那么在基于惯用的取值范围, 则此时 T1的栅源电压为深度负电 压, 远远小于 T1的阈值电压 VTH, 并小于零, 即 V(jS <VTH<0, 因此, T1被 完全关闭, T1处于完全截止状态。上拉节点 PU与第一节点 LK之间的电连 接被完全切断, 即上拉节点 PU点与预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3之间的电连 接被完全切断, 从而使上拉节点 PU不会因为 T6和 T7关断不理想, 而漏电 流过大, 造成上拉节点 PU失去上拉效果, 从而导致信号输出端输出信号的 波形畸形, 输出不正常。 另外, 由于下拉节点 PD即 T9的栅极电压为 VQU, 而由于 T9的源极与第二电平信号输入端连接, 即 T9源极电压为 VQL2, 由于 第二电平信号输入端 VGL2输入信号 VQL2的电位可以小于零且高于第一电平 信号输入端 VGL1输入信号 VQU的电位, 因此, 使 T9的栅源电压也为深度 负电压, 即 T9也处于完全截止状态, 从而使栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate 输出的栅极信号也不存在漏电流的影响, 确保了栅极信号的稳定输出。
在阶段 C复位阶段。第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入低电平信号,第二时 钟信号时输入端 CLKB输入高电平信号,起始信号输入端 STV输入为低电平 信号; 此时, Tl、 T7-T10均处于导通状态, T4、 T5、 T6、 Til处于截止状 态; Tl、 Τ7实现对 CI和 C2的放电, 将上拉节点 PU和第一节点 LK电位下 拉至 V n T9将栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate输出信号的电位下拉至 ν^2, Τ8将起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV输出信号的电位下拉至 VQU
在阶段 D复位维持阶段。 第一时钟信号输入端 CLK输入高电平信号, 第二时钟信号输入端 CLKB输入低电平信号,起始信号输入端 STV输入为低 电平信号; 此时, Tl、 T6-T11均处于截止状态, Τ4、 Τ5处于导通状态; 上 拉节点 PU和第一节点 LK维持在低电平电位,栅极信号输出端 OUTPUT— Gate 和起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV输出信号的电位维持不变。
通过以上阶段的实现,本发明实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元驱动方法, 可以在上拉阶段, 完全断开上拉节点 PU与预充电模块 2和下拉模块 3之间 的电连接,从而可以解决 GOA电路的漏电过大问题,有效解决了采用氧化物 薄膜晶体管 (TFT) 的 GOA电路的可靠性和功耗问题。
如附图 19所示的本发明实施例提供的 GOA电路与现有 GOA电路输出 波形仿真结果对比图可以看出 (其中,标识 1所指为本发明实施例提供的 GOA 电路输出波形仿真示意图, 标识 2所指为现有 GOA电路输出波形仿真示意 图), 在预充电和上拉阶段, 现有一般 GOA电路由于薄膜晶体管 TFT耗尽型 特性造成的漏电流过大将上拉节点 PU和输出波形发生严重消减, 造成 GOA 的失效; 而本发明实施例提供的 GOA由于设置了关断模块, 使上拉阶段, 上 拉节点 PU与预充电模块和下拉模块之间的电连接完全被关断, 有效切断了 上拉节点 PU漏电流, 从而从上拉节点 PU和输出波形正常, GOA工作正常。 本发明实施例还提供了一种移位寄存器, 该移位寄存器中具体可以包括 多级上述本发明实施例提供的移位寄存器单元。
在一具体实施例中, 除第一级外, 一级移位寄存器单元栅极信号输出端
OUTPUT— Gate输出的信号为上一级移位寄存器单元的复位信号;除最后一级 外, 一级移位寄存器单元起始信号输出端 OUTPUT— STV输出的信号为下一 级移位寄存器单元输入的起始信号。
本发明实施例还提供了一种显示装置, 包括上述本发明实施例提供的移 位寄存器。
该显示装置具体可以为液晶面板、液晶电视、液晶显示器、 OLED (有机 发光二极管) 面板、 OLED显示器、 等离子显示器或电子纸等显示装置。
本发明实施例所提供的移位寄存器单元、 移位寄存器与显示装置特别适 合 LTPS (低温多晶硅技术) 制程下的 GOA电路需求, 也可适用于非晶硅工 艺下的 GOA电路。
需指出的是, 尽管上述实施例中, 以单一采用 N型薄膜晶体管为例进行 了说明, 然而, 上述电路还可以轻易的改成采用单一的 P 型薄膜晶体管或 CMOS (互补金属氧化物半导体) 管电路。
通过以上描述可以看出, 本发明提供了一种移位寄存器单元及其驱动方 法、 移位寄存器与显示装置, 通过设置用于在上拉阶段, 断开所述上拉节点 PU与所述预充电模块和下拉模块之间电连接的关断模块,从而可以解决 GOA 电路的漏电过大问题,有效解决了采用氧化物薄膜晶体管的 GOA电路的可靠 性和功耗问题。
以上所述仅是本发明的实施方式, 应当指出, 对于本技术领域的普通技 术人员来说, 在不脱离本发明原理的前提下, 还可以作出若干改进和润饰, 这些改进和润饰也应视为本发明的保护范围。
