除非另外特别定义,本公开使用的技术术语或者科学术语应当为本公开所 属领域内具有一般技能的人士所理解的通常意义。本公开中使用的“第一”、“第二”以及类似的词语并不表示任何顺序、数量或者重要性,而只是用来区分不同的组成部分。此外,在本公开各个实施例中,相同或类似的参考标号表示相同或类似的构件。
在有机发光二极管(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,OLED)显示面板中,各个像素单元中的驱动晶体管的阈值电压由于制备工艺可能彼此之间存在差异,而且由于例如温度变化的影响,驱动晶体管的阈值电压也会产生漂移的现象。各个驱动晶体管的阈值电压的不同也可能会导致显示面板显示不均匀。因此,需要对驱动晶体管的阈值电压进行补偿。
传统的阈值电压补偿电路通常包括短接开关晶体管,短接开关晶体管的源极与驱动晶体管的漏极连接,短接开关晶体管的漏极与驱动晶体管的栅极连接,这种设置方式配合相应的驱动时序,在补偿过程中,短接驱动晶体管可将驱动晶体管短接为二极管连接,以实现驱动晶体管阈值电压的补偿。然而,这种阈值电压补偿方式的效果并不理想,一个重要原因是在阈值电压补偿电路工作过程中,短接开关晶体管关断时会造成电容保持电位误差,这一误差被称为开关误差(switching induced error)。
开关误差产生的原因为短接开关晶体管的栅极和漏极之间存在等效电容(包括电极重叠寄生电容和沟道电容),在存储电容充电完成时,存储电容与驱动晶体管栅极相连的一端的电位是驱动晶体管的阈值电压,在短接开关晶体管关断的过程中,因偏压和容量变化短接开关晶体管的等效电容中存储的电荷被注入存储电容,造成存储电容上保持的阈值电压信号产生误差。
因此,由开关误差引起的阈值电压不均匀依然是制约有机发光二级管显示面板生产良率的主要原因之一,需要对开关误差进行补偿。
例如,结合图14和图15对开关误差产生的原因进行说明。图14是阈值电压充电结束短接开关晶体管关断前的状态示意图;图15是阈值电压取样充电结束短接开关晶体管关断时的状态示意图。短接开关晶体管T'的栅极和漏极之间存在等效电容CTgd0,包括电极重叠寄生电容Col和沟道电容Cchn。在存储电容充电完成时,存储电容与驱动晶体管DT’栅极相连的一端的电位是驱动晶体管DT'的阈值电压Vth。在短接开关晶体管T'关断过程中,因偏压和容量变化,短接开关晶体管T'的电容CTgd0中存储的电荷被注入存储电容C1',造成存储电容上保持的Vth信号误差。在不考虑其他晶体管相关电容的情况下, 解相关电荷守恒方程,得短接开关晶体管T'关断后驱动晶体管DT’的栅极电位为:
Figure PCTCN2017089173-appb-000001
上式中第2、3两项均为短接开关晶体管T'关断过程中产生的误差,第2项为驱动晶体管DT'的阈值电压Vth的相关误差,第3项为信号Vref-Vdt相关误差,其中Vref为参考电压,Vdt为数据信号的电压,VgH为高电平电压,VgL为低电平电压。基于相同工作过程,驱动晶体管DT'的电流如下:
Figure PCTCN2017089173-appb-000002
其中,
Figure PCTCN2017089173-appb-000003
μn为驱动晶体管DT’的沟道迁移率,Cox为驱动晶体管DT'单位面积的沟道电容,W和L分别为驱动晶体管DT'的沟道宽度和沟道长度,VDTgs为驱动晶体管DT’的栅源电压(即,驱动晶体管DT’的栅极电压与源极电压之差)。
因驱动晶体管DT'的阈值电压Vth相关项的存在,阈值电压Vth不均匀仍然会影响显示均匀性。上式阈值电压Vth相关项中,Cgs和Cgs0分别是驱动晶体管DT’在开启和阈值状态下栅极和源极间的电容,通常差异不大对阈值电压Vth相关误差影响不突出。Cgd和Cgd0分别是驱动晶体管DT’在开启和阈值状态下栅极和漏极之间电容,其特性与栅极和源极间电容类似。但是,由于阈值状态下Cgd0被短接开关晶体管T’短路没有存储电荷,短接开关晶体管T'关断后,Cgd可能吸收较多的电荷,从而可以对阈值电压Vth相关误差产生一定影响。
可以看出,误差的阈值电压Vth相关项系数主要由短接开关晶体管T'的沟道电容Cchn和驱动晶体管DT'的栅极和漏极间电容Cgd决定,物理过程是关断过程中,短接开关晶体管T’的导电沟道消失,相应的等效电容也接近于0,原先存在其中的电荷注入存储电容C1',也有部分被驱动晶体管DT'是栅极和漏极间电容Cgd等电容吸收。
例如,本公开实施例提供的像素电路、显示面板、显示设备及驱动方法可 以减小或消除阈值补偿过程中的开关误差,提高显示面板显示的均匀性。
本公开至少一实施例提供一种像素电路,其包括:驱动晶体管、第一晶体管、第一电容、有机发光二极管和开关误差补偿电路。驱动晶体管包括与第一电源线连接以接收第一电源电压的第一极、与第一节点连接的栅极以及与第二节点连接的第二极;第一晶体管包括与第二节点连接的第一极、与第一控制信号线连接以接收第一控制信号的栅极以及与第一节点连接的第二极;第一电容包括与第一节点连接的第一端以及与第三节点连接的第二端;有机发光二极管被配置为在工作时在驱动晶体管的驱动下发光;开关误差补偿电路与第一节点和/或第二节点连接,被配置为补偿第一晶体管的开关误差。
实施例一
例如,本实施例提供一种像素电路100,如图1所示,像素电路100包括驱动晶体管DT、第一晶体管T1、第一电容C1、有机发光二极管OLED以及开关误差补偿电路110。驱动晶体管DT包括与第一电源线连接以接收第一电源电压Vdd的第一极、与第一节点N1连接的栅极以及与第二节点N2连接的第二极。第一晶体管T1包括与第二节点N2连接的第一极、与第一控制信号线连接以接收第一控制信号Sn的栅极以及与第一节点N1连接的第二极。第一电容C1包括与第一节点N1连接的第一端以及与第三节点N3连接的第二端。有机发光二极管OLED被配置为在工作时在驱动晶体管DT的驱动下发光。开关误差补偿电路110与第一节点N1连接,被配置为补偿第一晶体管T1的开关误差。
需要说明的是,本公开的实施例中采用的晶体管均可以为薄膜晶体管或场效应晶体管或其他特性相同的开关器件。这里采用的晶体管的源极、漏极在结构上可以是对称的,所以其源极、漏极在结构上可以是没有区别的。在本公开的实施例中,为了区分晶体管除栅极之外的两极,直接描述了其中一极为第一极,另一极为第二极,所以本公开实施例中全部或部分晶体管的源极和漏极根据需要是可以互换的。此外,按照晶体管的特性区分可以将晶体管分为N型和P型晶体管,本公开的实施例均以P型晶体管为例进行说明。基于本公开对P型晶体管实现方式的描述和教导,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下能够容易想到本公开实施例采用N型晶体管的实现方式,因此,这些实现方式也是在本公开的保护范围内的。
例如,如图1所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括数据写入电 路120,数据写入电路120被配置为接收第一控制信号Sn和数据信号Vdt并根据第一控制信号Sn向第三节点N3写入数据信号Vdt。
例如,如图1所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括第一参考电压写入电路130,第一参考电压写入电路130被配置为接收发光控制信号EM和第一参考电压Vref1并根据发光控制信号EM向第三节点N3写入第一参考电压Vref1。
例如,如图1所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括发光控制电路140,发光控制电路140被配置为接收发光控制信号EM并根据发光控制信号EM控制有机发光二极管OLED发光。
需要说明的是,本公开的实施例包括但不局限于像素电路100包括数据写入电路120、第一参考电压写入电路130和发光控制电路140的情形,也可以是其他的情形,例如,不包括数据写入电路120和第一参考电压写入电路130,而使数据信号线直接连接第三节点N3,同时通过设置数据信号Vdt的时序和电压值实现数据信号和第一参考电压的写入。
例如,如图1和图2所示,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,开关误差补偿电路110包括第一补偿晶体管TC1,第一补偿晶体管TC1的第一极、第二极均与第一节点N1连接,第一补偿晶体管TC1的栅极与发光控制信号线连接以接收发光控制信号EM。
需要说明的是,本公开的实施例包括但不局限于第一补偿晶体管TC1的第一极、第二极与第一节点N1连接的情形,也可以是第一补偿晶体管TC1的第一极与第一节点N1连接,第二极悬空,或者第一补偿晶体管TC1的第二极与第一节点N1连接,第一极悬空。
例如,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,第一补偿晶体管TC1与第一晶体管T1由相同的工艺制成。
例如,由于第一补偿晶体管TC1也具有等效的电容,在第一晶体管T1关断的同时,第一晶体管T1栅极和漏极间的等效电容释放的电荷可以全部或部分被第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容吸收,从而达到保持第一电容C1中阈值电压准确和稳定的目的。由于第一补偿晶体管TC1与第一晶体管T1由相同的工艺制成,使得第一补偿晶体管TC1与第一晶体管T1的特性相同或相似,第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容与第一晶体管T1的等效电容相同或接近,第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容能够准确地吸收第一晶体管T1的等效电容释放的 电荷,从而获得较佳的补偿效果。
例如,第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容包括Ctcgs和Ctcgd,Ctcgs为第一补偿晶体管TC1栅极和源极之间的等效电容,Ctcgd为第一补偿晶体管TC1栅极和漏极之间的等效电容(无论第一补偿晶体管TC1的第一极、第二极是否同时与第一节点N1连接,由于没有其他旁路,第一补偿晶体管的Ctcgd和Ctcgs都会共同参与电荷的吸收或排出),而第一晶体管T1的等效电容仅仅包括第一晶体管T1的栅极和漏极之间的等效电容C1gd。第一晶体管T1导通时栅极和源极之间的等效电容C1gs与栅极和漏极之间的等效电容C1gd中总电荷量一定,但第一晶体管T1关断时会根据电路偏置条件在C1gd和C1gs间分配电荷,造成C1gd和C1gs等效电容变动。例如,第一晶体管T1的C1gd会大于C1gs。
例如,对于如图2所示的像素电路,只需要提供第一控制信号Sn和发光控制信号EM,便于电路的布线,可提升显示面板的分辨率。
例如,如图1和图2所示,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,数据写入电路120包括第二晶体管T2,第二晶体管T2的第一极与数据信号线连接以接收数据信号Vdt,第二晶体管T2的第二极与第三节点N3连接,第二晶体管T2的栅极与第一控制信号线连接以接收第一控制信号Sn。

例如,第一电源电压Vdd为高电平电压(例如8V),第二电源电压Vss为低电平电压(例如,0V)。
例如,有机发光二极管OLED的第一极为阳极,第二极为阴极。
需要说明的是,图2所示的像素电路仅仅为图1所示像素电路的一种实施 方式,本公开的实施例包括但不局限于图2所示的实施方式。
例如,在图2所示的像素电路的基础上,如图3所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括第二参考电压写入电路150,第二参考电压写入电路150被配置为接收第二控制信号Sn-1和第二参考电压Vref2并根据第二控制信号Sn-1向第三节点N3写入第二参考电压Vref2。
例如,如图3所示,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,第二参考电压写入电路150包括第五晶体管T5,第五晶体管T5的第一极与第二参考电压线连接以接收第二参考电压Vref2,第五晶体管T5的第二极与第三节点N3连接,第五晶体管T5的栅极与第二控制信号线连接以接收第二控制信号Sn-1。
例如,第二控制信号Sn-1可以比第一控制信号Sn提前一行扫描时间,也就是说,本行像素电路的第二控制信号Sn-1可以由相邻的上一行像素电路的第一控制信号Sn来实现,这样可以简化电路的设计,方便电路的布线。
例如,第一参考电压Vref1和第二参考电压Vref2是稳定的基准电压,它们可以是相同的电压或者是不同的电压。
例如,在第一参考电压写入电路130的基础上增加第二参考电压写入电路150可以改善显示品质,防止相邻的上一帧的残存信号影响本帧的信号补偿。
例如,如图3所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括放电电路160,被配置为接收第二控制信号Sn-1和放电电压Vini并根据第二控制信号Sn-1向第一节点N1写入放电电压Vini。
例如,如图3所示,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,放电电路160包括第六晶体管T6,第六晶体管T6的第一极与第一节点N1连接,第六晶体管T6的第二极与放电电压线连接以接收放电电压Vini,第六晶体管T6的栅极与第二控制信号线连接以接收第二控制信号Sn-1。
例如,放电电压Vini为低电平电压(例如,0V)。
例如,第一参考电压Vref1、第二参考电压Vref2和放电电压Vini可以是相同的电压,这种设置方式可以简化电路布线,提高显示面板的分辨率。
例如,在图3的基础上,如图4所示,本公开实施例提供的像素电路100还包括第二电容C2,第二电容C2的第一端与第一电源线连接以接收第一电源电压Vdd,第二电容C2的第二端与第一节点N1连接。

例如,由于加入了补偿电容CC,在第一晶体管T1关断的同时,第一晶体管T1栅极和漏极间的等效电容释放的电荷可以全部或部分被补偿电容CC吸收,从而达到保持第一电容C1中阈值电压准确和稳定的目的。补偿电容CC的电容值例如可以通过试验的方法获得。
例如,如图5和图6所示,在本公开实施例提供的像素电路100中,数据 写入电路120包括第二晶体管T2,第二晶体管T2的第一极与数据信号线连接以接收数据信号Vdt,第二晶体管T2的第二极与第三节点N3连接,第二晶体管T2的栅极与第一控制信号线连接以接收第一控制信号Sn。

例如,在本实施例中,像素电路还可以包括第二参考电压写入电路、放电电路和第二电容等(图中未示出),其实施方式与实施例一类似,在此不再赘述。
实施例三

例如,在第一晶体管T1关断的同时,由时序控制第二补偿晶体管TC2导通,第一晶体管T1的第一极(例如,源极)的电位被拉低为放电电压Vini(例如,0V),使第一晶体管T1沟道偏压状态瞬间翻转(源极和漏极互换)。这样,大部分的沟道电荷在沟道消失过程中,会被赶到第一晶体管T1正常工作状态的源极,避免影响第一电容C1中保持的阈值电压。

需要说明的是,图8所示的像素电路仅仅为图7所示像素电路的一种实施方式,本公开的实施例包括但不局限于图8所示的实施方式。
例如,在本实施例中,像素电路还可以包括第二参考电压写入电路、放电电路和第二电容等(图中未示出),其实施方式与实施例一类似,在此不再赘述。
需要说明的是,实施例一、实施例二、实施例三中的开关误差补偿电路110的实现方式不同,但均能实现对第一晶体管T1开关误差的补偿。因此,在不冲突的情况下,这些实施例中开关误差补偿电路110的实施方式可以结合使用。

例如,如图11所示,在复位阶段t1,第一控制信号Sn为开启电压,发光控制信号EM为开启电压;在数据写入阶段t2,第一控制信号Sn为开启电压,发光控制信号EM为关闭电压;在开关误差补偿阶段t3,第一控制信号Sn为 关闭电压,发光控制信号EM为关闭电压;在发光阶段t4,第一控制信号Sn为关闭电压,发光控制信号EM为开启电压。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中的开启电压是指能使相应晶体管第一极和第二级导通的电压,关闭电压是指能使相应晶体管的第一极和第二级断开的电压。当晶体管为P型晶体管时,开启电压为低电压(例如,0V),关闭电压为高电压(例如,5V);当晶体管为N型晶体管时,开启电压为高电压(例如,5V),关闭电压为低电压(例如,0V)。图11至图13所示的驱动时序图均以P型晶体管为例进行说明,即开启电压为低电压(例如,0V),关闭电压为高电压(例如,5V)。
例如,下面以图2所示的像素电路100和图11所示的驱动时序为例介绍像素电路100的工作过程。
例如,在复位阶段t1,第一控制信号Sn为低电平电压,发光控制信号EM为低电平电压。第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2、第三晶体管T3和第四晶体管T4均开启(即源极和漏极导通),第三晶体管T3将第一参考电压Vref1写入第三节点,第三节点N3的电压为第一参考电压Vref1,第二电源电压Vss通过第四晶体管T4和第一晶体管T1写入第一节点N1,第一节点N1的电压为第二电源电压Vss,即对像素电路100进行了复位。
在数据写入阶段t2,第一控制信号Sn为低电平电压,发光控制信号EM为高电平电压。第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2开启,第三晶体管T3和第四晶体管T4关断(即源极和漏极未导通),第二晶体管T2将数据信号Vdt写入第三节点N3,第三节点的电压为Vdt,第一节点N1的电压为Vdd+Vth,Vth为驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压,第一电容C1两端的电压差为Vdd+Vth-Vdt。
在开关误差补偿阶段t3,第一控制信号Sn为高电平电压,发光控制信号EM为高电平电压。第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2、第三晶体管T3和第四晶体管T4关断。第一电容C1两端的电压差保持在Vdd+Vth-Vdt。由于第一补偿晶体管TC1也具有等效的电容,在第一晶体管T1关断的同时,第一晶体管T1栅极和漏极间的等效电容释放的电荷可以全部或部分被第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容吸收,从而达到保持第一电容C1中保持的阈值电压准确和稳定的目的。由于第一补偿晶体管TC1与第一晶体管T1由相同的工艺制成,使得第一补偿晶体管TC1与第一晶体管T1的特性相同或相似,第一补偿晶体管TC1的等效电容与第一晶体管T1的等效电容相同或接近,第一补偿晶体管TC1的 等效电容可以准确地吸收第一晶体管T1的等效电容释放的电荷。
在发光阶段t4,第一控制信号Sn为高电平电压,发光控制信号EM为低电平电压。第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2关断,第三晶体管T3和第四晶体管T4开启。第三晶体管T3将第一参考电压Vref1再次写入第三节点,第三节点N3的电压为第一参考电压Vref1,此时,由于第一电容C1的自举效应,第一节点N1的电压变化为Vref1+Vdd+Vth-Vdt。发光电流Ioled通过驱动晶体管DT和第四晶体管T4流入有机发光二极管OLED,有机发光二极管OLED发光。发光电流Ioled满足如下饱和电流公式:
K(Vgs-Vth)2=K(Vref1+Vdd+Vth-Vdt-Vdd-Vth)2=K(Vref1-Vdt)2
其中,

μn为驱动晶体管的沟道迁移率,Cox为驱动晶体管单位面积的沟道电容,W和L分别为驱动晶体管的沟道宽度和沟道长度,Vgs为驱动晶体管的栅源电压(即,驱动晶体管的栅极电压与源极电压之差)。
由上式中可以看到流经OLED的电流与驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压无关。因此,图2所示的像素电路可以补偿驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压。
