为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本公开实施例的附图，对本公开实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然，所描述的实施例是本公开的一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于所描述的本公开的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本公开保护的范围。另外，附图中各膜层的厚度和形状不反映真实比例，目的只是示意说明本发明内容。

本申请的发明人在研究中发现：在液晶显示装置中，由于RGBW(红绿蓝白)结构像素中的白色子像素不对背光模组发出的光进行滤色，可以保证其对应位置的光能够完全透过，进而提高亮度，在背光模组发光功率相同的情况下，相较于通常的RGB(红绿蓝)结构像素，RGBW(红绿蓝白)结构像素能够使得射入用户眼中的光更多。因此，采用RGBW(红绿蓝白)结构像素的液晶显示装置可在够达到采用通常RGB结构像素的液晶显示装置的前提下可以降低功率以进行显示，从而降低了该液晶显示器的功耗。然而，RGBW(红绿蓝白)结构像素也存在部分显示不良的问题，例如在色坐标系中，纯正的白光色坐标是(0.33，0.33)，在像素显示浅颜色的光时，也即该色光的色坐标与(0.33，0.33)相距小于一定距离(例如0.02)，由于白色子像素射出的光亮度大于该色光的亮度，使得用户在观看画面时，感觉到的该色光的亮度比像素实际发出的该色光的亮度低，亮度的变化会使得人眼感觉到的色彩对应的色坐标，与像素发出该色光对应的色坐标不同。在色坐标系中的体现是，感觉亮度变低后，感觉到的该色光的色坐标向远离(0.33，0.33)但仍属于同近色度的方向移动。也就是说，白色子像素发出的白光，对于RBG子像素发出的某些混合色光会存在较大的影响，使得人眼感觉到的该混合色光的亮度相对于像素发出的混合色光的实际亮度要低。
本发明实施例提供一种显示基板以及显示装置。该显示基板包括多个像素，各像素包括白色子像素；数据信号芯片，用于向所述像素传输数据信号组，所述数据信号组包括向所述白色子像素传输的数据信号；以及控制单元，所述控制单元在所述数据信号芯片向所述像素传输预设数据信号组时，控制所述白色子像素呈暗态。由此，该显示基板通过控制单元可在白色子像素影响像素显示(例如从人的视觉上降低该像素显示的亮度)时，使白色子像素呈暗态以消除白色子像素的不良影响。
下面结合附图对本发明实施例提供的显示基板以及显示装置进行说明。
实施例一
本实施例提供一种显示基板，如图1所示，该显示基板包括多个像素1、数据信号芯片2以及控制单元3。各像素1(图1中仅示出了一个像素，但该显示基板实际上可以包含多个像素)包括白色子像素14；数据信号芯片2用于向像素1传输数据信号组，数据信号组包括向白色子像素14传输的数据信号；控制单元3在数据信号芯片2向像素1传输预设数据信号组时，控制白色子像素14呈暗态。
在本实施例提供的显示基板中，当数据信号芯片2向像素1传输预设数据信号组时，控制单元3可以控制白色子像素14呈暗态，如图2所示，从而避免白色子像素14发出白光对像素1发出混合色光造成视觉影响，以保证用户的观看效果，提高产品的显示质量。需要说明的是，上述的预设数据信号组可根据实际情况中白色子像素使人眼感觉到的色彩对应的色坐标与包括该白色子像素的像素发出该色光对应的色坐标不同时的数据信号组进行设置。
例如，如图1所示，该显示基板包括多个像素1，每个像素1(图1中仅示出了一个像素，但该显示基板实际上可以包含多个像素)包括红色子像素11、绿色子像素12、蓝色子像素13和白色子像素14。该显示基板还包括：数据信号芯片2和控制单元3，数据信号芯片2用于向红色子像素11、绿色子像素12、蓝色子像素13和白色子像素14分别传输数据信号；在像素1接收到预设数据信号组(预先设定的红色子像素11、绿色子像素12、蓝色子像素13和白色子像素14分别接收到的数据信号的组合)时，红色子像素11、绿色子像素12和蓝色子像素13发出混合色光(例如淡绿色光、黄光、淡蓝色光等)，白色子像素发出白光，白光使人眼观看到混合色光的亮度比混合色光的实际亮度低预设百分比(例如预设百分比大于5％)，此时，控制单元3在(检测到或获取到)数据信号芯片2向像素1传输预设数据信号组时，控制白色子像素14呈暗态。
在本实施例提供的显示基板中，由于在像素接收到预设数据信号组时，白色子像素发出的白光对红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光存在视觉影响，例如混合色光为亮度为200nit的黄光时，由于白色子像素发出白光的影响，用户感觉到的黄光的亮度为180nit，导致人眼感觉到的黄光的颜色比像素实际发出黄光的亮度低10％。因此在数据信号芯片2向像素1传输预设 数据信号组时，可以控制白色子像素14呈暗态，如图2所示，从而避免白色子像素14发出白光对红色子像素11、绿色子像素12和蓝色子像素13发出混合色光造成视觉影响，以保证用户的观看效果，提高产品的显示质量。需要说明的是，本实施例以RGBW(红绿蓝白)结构像素为例对本发明进行了说明。当然，本发明实施例包括但不限于此，像素还可采用其他包括白色子像素的结构。
例如，在本实施例一示例提供的显示基板中，如图2所示，所述控制单元包括：电致变色单元4，与白色子像素对应设置(例如设置在白色子像素的下方或上方)；以及控制芯片，获取数据信号芯片向像素传输的信号，若传输的信号为预设数据信号组，控制电致变色单元呈不透光状态。
由此，本实施例可以利用电致变色单元的通电变色特性，以改变电致变色单元的透光率，例如在控制电致变色单元呈不透光状态时，可以保证白色子像素呈暗态。
例如，电致变色单元可与白色子像素形状相同、大小相等。当然，本发明实施例包括但不限于此，电致变色单元还可略大于白色子像素。
例如，电致变色单元的形状可以与白色子像素不同，只要电致变色单元可通过变色改变白色子像素的灰度使得白色子像素呈暗态即可，本发明实施例在此不作限制。
需要说明的是，实施例中所指的不透光状态是指没有光通过，而暗态既包括通过的光很少，也包括没有光通过。
例如，控制单元在控制电致变色层维持不透光状态预设时长后，若检测到的数据信号向像素传输的信号不是预设数据信号组，控制电致变色层呈透明状态。由此，可以使得当白色子像素发出的白光不对红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光造成视觉影响时，控制电致变色层呈透明状态，使得白色子像素正常发挥功能。
例如，在本实施例一示例提供的显示基板中，如图3所示，电致变色单元4包括：第一电极层41；离子存储层42，设置在第一电极层41之上；电解质层43，设置在离子存储层42之上；电致变色层44，设置在电解质层43之上； 以及第二电极层45，设置在电致变色层44之上。
例如，电致变色层可采用无机电致变色材料或有机电致变色材料制作。
例如，无机电致变色材料包括是三氧化钨(WO3)。
例如，有机电致变色材料包括聚噻吩类及其衍生物、紫罗精类、四硫富瓦烯、金属酞菁类化合物等。
在本实施例提供的显示基板中，电致变色层可以设置在白色子像素之下，另外，电致变色层除了可以采用本实施例中的结构，还可以采用与本实施相反的结构，也即由下至上依次包括第二电极层、电致变色层、电解质层、离子存储层和第一电极层，本发明实施例在此不作限制。
例如，控制单元在数据信号芯片向像素传输的信号为预设数据信号组时，向第一电极层和第二电极层中通以正向电流，以使电致变色层呈不透光状态，在控制电致变色层维持不透光预设时长后，若检测到的数据信号向像素传输的信号不是预设数据信号组，向第一电极层和第二电极层中通以反向电流，以使电致变色层呈透明状态。
需要说明的是，控制单元向第一电极层和第二电极层中通以正向电流(也即电流方向为阳极至阴极)，可以使得离子储存层中的离子通过离子导电层进入电致变色层，使得电致变色材料变色，从而改变电致变色单元的透过率，以使其呈透明状态。控制单元向第一电极层和第二电极层中通以反向电流(也即电流方向为阴极至阳极)，可以使得电致变色层中的离子通过离子导电层进入离子存储层，使得电致变色单元恢复不透光状态，进而停止向两电极供电即可维持电致变色材料呈不透光状态。
例如，在本实施例一示例提供的显示基板中，如图4所示，白色子像素还包括：衬底基板100，设置在衬底基板100上的像素电极8和公共电极9，离子存储层42设置在像素电极8之上，电解质层43设置在离子存储层42之上，电致变色层44设置在电解质层43之上，公共电极9设置在电解质层43之上。
例如，像素电极复用为第一电极层，即，像素电极同时可作为第一电极层，公共电极复用为第二电极层，即，公共电极同时可作为第二电极层。
在本实施例中，像素电极和公共电极都设置在显示基板中，适用于ADS 和IPS结构，进而可以将像素电极和公共电极分别作为电致变色单元的第一电极层和第二电极层，从而无需额外形成第一电极层和第二电极层，简化了制作工艺。
例如，如图5所示，控制单元3包括：开关单元31(图4中仅示出了开关单元为晶体管的情况，实际上开关单元31也可以以二极管作为开关单元)设置在数据信号芯片2与白色子像素14之间的数据线5上，例如可以设置在数据线5靠近公共电极线6一侧，也可以设置在数据线5靠近数据信号芯片2一侧；控制芯片32，检测数据信号芯片2向像素1传输的信号，若传输的信号为预设数据信号组，控制开关单元31断开。
本实施例通过开关单元控制白色子像素明暗状态，开关单元结构简单，易于设置。在控制开关单元断开时，白色子像素无法接收到数据信号，因此会维持在暗态。
例如，控制单元在控制开关单元断开预设时长后，若检测到数据信号芯片向像素传输的信号不是预设数据信号组，控制开关单元闭合。
通过本实施例，可以使得白色子像素发出的白光不对红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光造成视觉影响时，控制白色子像素正常发光，使得白色子像素正常发挥功能。
例如，开关单元包括薄膜晶体管，该薄膜晶体管的栅极与控制单元(控制芯片)相连，源极和漏极分别与白色子像素和数据信号芯片相连。薄膜晶体管的结构简单，易于设置，可以在形成像素中的驱动晶体管时一同形成该薄膜晶体管，从而简化制作工艺。
例如，如图6所示，控制芯片32集成在数据信号芯片2中。由于数据信号芯片2一般设置在外围电路中，将控制芯片32集成在数据信号芯片2中，可以减少对显示基板有效发光区域的占用，从而提高开口率。
例如，在像素接收到预设数据信号组时，红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光包括淡绿色光、黄光或淡蓝色光。例如，在混合色光为黄光时，白色子像素发出的白光对用户的观看效果影响最大，通过上述技术方案，可以对用户的视觉效果起到极大的改善。
实施例二
本实施例提供一种显示装置，包括上述显示基板。
需要说明的是，本实施例中的显示装置可以为：电子纸、手机、平板电脑、电视机、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
实施例三
本实施例提供一种显示基板的驱动方法，显示基板包括多个像素，每个像素包括白色子像素、数据信号芯片，用于向像素传输数据信号组以及控制单元，该驱动方法包括：在数据信号芯片向像素传输预设数据信号组时，控制单元控制白色子像素呈暗态。由此可避免白色子像素发出白光对像素发出混合色光造成视觉影响，以保证用户的观看效果，提高产品的显示质量。需要说明的是，上述的预设数据信号组可根据实际情况中白色子像素使人眼感觉到的色彩对应的色坐标与包括该白色子像素的像素发出该色光对应的色坐标不同时的数据信号组进行设置。
例如，在本实施例一示例提供的驱动方法中，像素接收到预设数据信号组时，像素发出混合色光，白色子像素发出白光，白光使人眼观看到混合色光的亮度比混合色光的实际亮度低预设百分比。
例如，每个像素还包括红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素，数据信号组还包括分别向红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素传输的数据信号。当像素接收到预设数据信号组时，红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光，白色子像素发出白光，白光使人眼观看到混合色光的亮度比混合色光的实际亮度低预设百分比。
例如，在本实施例一示例提供的驱动方法中，预设百分比包括5％。
以上结合附图详细说明了本发明的技术方案，考虑到现有技术中，白色子像素发出的白光会对红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出的某些类型的混合色光造成视觉影像。通过本发明的技术方案，在芯片向像素传输预设数据信号组时，通过控制白色子像素呈暗态，可以避免白色子像素对红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素发出混合色光的视觉影响，以保证用户的观看效果。
以上所述，仅为本发明的具体实施方式，但本发明的保护范围并不局限于 此，任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本发明揭露的技术范围内，可轻易想到的变化或替换，都应涵盖在本发明的保护范围之内。因此，本发明的保护范围应该以权利要求的保护范围为准。
