下面参照附图来描述根据本公开实施例提出的像素的补偿电路、显示面板和像素的补偿方法。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例的像素可为OLED像素或QLED(Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes,量子点发光二极管)像素等,下面以OLED像素为例进行说明。
如图1A所示,本公开实施例提出的像素的补偿电路包括驱动子电路110、补偿子电路120、第一开关子电路130和第二开关子电路140。
具体地,驱动子电路110的控制端与第二开关子电路140的第一端电连接,第一端与发光元件电连接,第二端与电源VDD电连接。所述发光元件可以是OLED或QLED单元等。在下文中,以OLED作为发光元件的示例。
补偿子电路120的第一端与驱动子电路110的第一端电连接,第二端与驱动子电路110的控制端电连接。
第一开关子电路130的控制端与第一信号输入端G2电连接,第一端与驱动子电路110的第一端电连接,第二端与初始电压输入端Vinitial电连接。
第二开关子电路140的控制端与第二信号输入端Scan电连接,第一端与驱动子电路110的控制端电连接,第二端与数据信号输入端Data电连接。
如图1B所示,在一个实施例中,驱动子电路110可以包括驱动管DrT,补偿子电路120可以包括补偿电容Cst,第一开关子电路130可以包括第一开关管T1,以及第二开关子电路140可以包括第二开关管T2。在以下对本公开进行的具体描述中,采用如图1B所示的实施例作为示例进行描述。应该理解的是,这一实施例仅是示例性的,并不对本公开的范围进行限定。
具体地,在驱动子电路110中,驱动管DrT具有栅极、源极和漏极,其中栅极对应于驱动DrT的控制端,源极对应于驱动DrT的第一端和第二端之一,漏极对应于驱动DrT的第一端和第二端中的另一个(下文中,通过驱动DrT的控制端、第一端和第二端来进行描述),其中,驱动管DrT的第二端与电源电连接,以通过驱动管DrT的第二端输入电源电压VDD,驱动管DrT的第一端与OLED的阳极电连接,以便为OLED提供驱动电流。
补偿电容Cst的第一端与驱动管DrT的第一端电连接,补偿电容Cst的第二端与驱动管DrT的控制端电连接,补偿电容Cst可用于存储驱动管DrT的控制端与第一端之间的电压。
第一开关管T1具有栅极、源极和漏极,其中栅极对应于第一开关管T1的控制端,源极对应于第一开关管T1的第一端和第二端之一,漏极对应于第一开关管T1的第一端和第二端中的另一个(下文中,通过第一开关管T1的控制端、第一端和第二端来进行描述)。第一开关管T1的第一端与驱动管DrT的第一端电连接,第一开关管T1的第二端与初始电压输入端电连接,初始电压输入端所输入的初始电压为Vinitial。
第二开关管T2具有栅极、源极和漏极,其中栅极对应于第二开关管T2的控制端,源极对应于第二开关管T2的第一端和第二端之一,漏极对应于第二开关管T2的第一端和第二端中的另一个(下文中,通过第二开关管T2的控制端、第一端和第二端来进行描述)。第二开关管T2的第一端与驱动管DrT的控制端电连接,第二开关管T2的第二端与数据信号输入端Data电连接,可通过数据信号输入端Data输入数据电压Vdata和参考电压Vref。
第一开关管T1的控制端与第一信号输入端电连接,以接收第一信号输入端输入的第一控制信号G2。第二开关管T2的控制端与第二信号输入端电连接,以接收第二信号输入端输入的第二控制信号Scan。
需要说明的是,驱动管DrT、第一开关管T1和第二开关管T2可均为TFT(Thin Film Transistor,薄膜晶体管),其中,驱动管DrT的控制端、第一开关管T1的控制端和第二开关管T2的控制端均对应为TFT的栅极,驱动管DrT的第一端、第一开关管T1的第一端和第二开关管T2的第一端可对应为TFT的源极和漏极中的一个,驱动管DrT的第二端、第一开关管T1的第二端和第二开关管T2的第二端可对应为源极和漏极中的另一个。在下述示例中,驱动管DrT的第一端可对应为TFT的源极。
在本公开的一个实施例中,可通过上述补偿电路对驱动管DrT的阈值电压进行补偿。具体地,在重置阶段,第一信号输入端控制第一开关管T1开启,第二信号输入端控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间;在补偿阶段,第一信号输入端控制第一开关管T1关闭,第二信号输入端控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间;在写数据阶段,第一信号输入端控制第一开关管T1关闭,第二信号输入端控制第二开关管T2开启;在发光阶段,第一信号输入端控制第一开关管T1关闭,第二信号输入端控制第二开关管T2关闭。
如图2所示,重置阶段可对应第一时间段t1,补偿阶段可对应第二时间段t2,写数据阶段可对应第三时间段t3,发光阶段可对应第四时间段t4。其中,第一时间段可小于第二时间段,第三时间段可小于第一时间段,也就是说,重置阶段的持续时间可小于补偿阶段的持续时间,并大于写数据阶段的持续时间。
如图2和图3所示,在重置阶段即t1时期,第一控制信号G2为高电平,第二控制信号Scan可在预设时间内维持高电平,并在其他时间维持低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1持续开启,并控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间。并且,在预设时间内,数据信号输入端Data输入参考电压Vref,由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vref,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vinitial+A,其中,A为由于电源端与初始电压输入端之间存在电流而产生的压降。
如图2和图4所示,在补偿阶段即t2时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan可在预设时间内维持高电平,并在其他时间维持低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1关闭,并控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间。其中,图4 中虚线所表示的开关管为关闭状态,下同。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vref,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vref-Vth,其中,Vth为驱动管DrT的阈值电压。也就是说,补偿电容Cst两端的电压差为Vth,从而可通过补偿电容Cst保存该阈值电压Vth。
如图2和图5所示,在写数据阶段即t3时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan为高电平,并且数据信号输入端Data输入数据电压Vdata,从而可控制第一开关管T1关闭,并控制第二开关管T2开启。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vdata,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vref-Vth+a(Vdata-Vref)+△V,其中,△V为写数据阶段因驱动管DrT漏电而产生的电压差,a为写数据阶段因电容分压效应导致的分配到补偿电容Cst两端的电压比例。
如图2和图6所示,在发光阶段即t4时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan为低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1和第二开关管T2均关闭。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端与第一端之间的电压Vgs=(1-a)(Vdata-Vref)+Vth-△V。而流过OLED的电流Ioled=1/2×Ku(Vgs-Vth) 2=1/2×Ku((1-a)(Vdata-Vref)-△V) 2,其中,Ku为与驱动管DrT的迁移率有关的参数。也就是说,Ioled与参数Ku、Vdata、Vref和△V等相关,而与驱动管DrT的阈值电压Vth无关。
在一个实施例中,第二开关管T2还可被配置为从数据信号输入端Data接收经过补偿的数据电压。其中,所述经过补偿的数据电压是基于驱动管DrT的阈值电压和迁移率确定的。这对应于下文将描述的外补偿。
根据本公开实施例的像素的补偿电路,通过上述应用两个开关管T1、T2和一个补偿电容Cst的电路结构,结合对T1、T2的控制策略,使得像素在发光阶段的电流不受驱动管DrT的阈值电压Vth的影响,因而可对Vth的变化进行补偿,该补偿电路不仅电路结构简单,而且补偿的实时性较高,能够有效改善显示面板显示残像的问题,大大提高显示面板的显示效果。
对应上述实施例,本公开还提出一种显示面板。
如图7所示,本公开实施例的显示面板100,包括上述的像素的补偿电路10。
根据本公开实施例的显示面板,通过上述像素的补偿电路,能够有效改善显示残像的问题,显示效果较好。
此外,还可在本公开的实施例的像素的补偿电路的基础上实施外补偿,即对补偿电路所接收的数据电压进行补偿,以进一步提高补偿精度。具体地,这可示例性地通过在显示面板100中设置控制器来实现。
具体地,所述控制器可以与显示面板所包括的根据本公开实施例的像素的补偿电路电连接,例如与补偿电路的第一开关管T1和第二开关管T2电连接。控制器可检测驱动管DrT的当前阈值电压Vth和当前迁移率Mob(例如,通过第一开关管T1来检测),并根据驱动管DrT的当前阈值电压Vth和当前迁移率Mob生成阈值补偿电压ΔVth和第一迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob。
其中,当阈值补偿电压ΔVth大于第一预设阈值时,控制器可根据阈值补偿电压ΔVth和第一迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob生成总补偿电压,并根据总补偿电压对数据信号输入端输入的数据电压Vdata进行补偿。在本公开的一个实施例中,当阈值补偿电压ΔVth大于0.5V时,流过OLED的电流Ioled便难以排除Vth的影响了,此时在发光阶段可对数据电压补加kΔVth,即数据电压为Vdata+kΔVth+ΔVmob,其中,k为补偿系数,该补偿系数k可通过后续调试获取,取值范围为0~1。
由于驱动管DrT的迁移率受温度的影响较大,在驱动管DrT的迁移率发生变化时,例如在data black时间,即每一帧不写数据的时间可对迁移率补偿电压进行重新获取以更新总补偿电压。具体地,控制器可在驱动管DrT的迁移率发生变化时根据当前阈值电压和变化后的迁移率生成第二迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob_new,并在第一迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob和第二迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob_new之间的电压差大于第二预设阈值时,根据第二迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob_new对总补偿电压进行更新。也就是说,如果迁移率补偿电压变化较大,可以以最新得到的迁移率补偿电压对数据电压进行补偿。在本公开的一个实施例中,当获取到所有行的驱动管DrT的迁移率后,在下一帧的发光阶段,数据电压可为Vdata+kΔVth+ΔVmob_new。
在像素断电停止发光,例如OLED显示面板因关机而停止发光时,控制器可获取驱动管DrT的断电阈值电压和断电迁移率,并通过存储器存储断电阈值电压和断电迁移率,以便在像素再次上电后将存储器存储的断电阈值电压和断电迁移率分别作为初始阈值电压和初始迁移率,从而在显示面板下一次显示时可根据该初始阈值电压和初始迁移率再次执行对数据电压进行补偿的策略。
综上所述,通过外补偿与补偿电路相结合进行混合补偿,能够有效提高补偿精度,从而进一步提高了显示面板的显示效果。
对应上述实施例,本公开还提出一种通过上述像素的补偿电路进行像素补偿的方法。
其中,参照图1B,像素的补偿电路包括具有第一端和第二端且第二端与电源电连接的驱动管DrT、第一端与驱动管DrT的第一端电连接且第二端与驱动管DrT的控制端电连接的补偿电容Cst、第一端与驱动管DrT的第一端电连接且第二端与初始电压输入端电连接的第一开关管T1、和第一端与驱动管DrT的控制端电连接且第二端与数据信号输入端电连接的第二开关管T2。
如图8所示,所述方法可包括以下步骤:
S1,在重置阶段,控制所述第一开关管开启,控制所述第二开关管开启预设时间。
在本公开的实施例中,参照图1B,第一开关管T1的控制端可输入第一控制信号G2,第二开关管T2的控制端可输入第二控制信号Scan,通过改变第一控制信号G2和第二控制信号Scan的电平可控制第一开关管和第二开关管的开闭。
S2,在补偿阶段,控制所述第一开关管关闭,控制所述第二开关管开启预设时间。
如图9所示,所述方法还可包括:
S3,在写数据阶段,控制第一开关管关闭,控制第二开关管开启。
S4,在发光阶段,控制第一开关管和第二开关管均关闭。
其中,如图2所示,重置阶段可对应第一时间段t1,补偿阶段可对应第二时间段t2,写数据阶段可对应第三时间段t3,发光阶段可对应第四时间段t4。其中,第一时间段可小于第二时间段,第三时间段可小于第一时间段,也就是说,重置阶段的持续时间可小于补偿阶段的持续时间,并大于写数据阶段的持续时间。
如图2和图3所示,在重置阶段即t1时期,第一控制信号G2为高电平,第二控制信号Scan可在预设时间内维持高电平,并在其他时间维持低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1持续开启,并控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间。并且,在预设时间内,数据信号输入端Data输入参考电压Vref,由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vref,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vinitial+A,其中,A为由于电源端与初始电压输入端之间存在电流而产生的压降。
如图2和图4所示,在补偿阶段即t2时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan可在预设时间内维持高电平,并在其他时间维持低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1关闭,并控制第二开关管T2开启预设时间。其中,图4中虚线所表示的开关管为关闭状态,下同。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vref,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vref-Vth,其中,Vth为驱动管DrT的阈值电压。也就是说,补偿电容Cst两端的电压差为Vth,从而可通过补偿电容Cst保存该阈值电压Vth。
如图2和图5所示,在写数据阶段即t3时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan为高电平,并且数据信号输入端Data输入数据电压Vdata,从而可控制第一开关管T1关闭,并控制第二开关管T2开启。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端的电压为Vdata,驱动管DrT的第一端的电压为Vref-Vth+a(Vdata-Vref)+△V,其中,△V为写数据阶段因驱动管DrT漏电而产生的电压差,a为写数据阶段因电容分压效应导致的分配到补偿电容Cst两端的电压比例。
如图2和图6所示,在发光阶段即t4时期,第一控制信号G2为低电平,第二控制信号Scan为低电平,从而可控制第一开关管T1和第二开关管T2均关闭。由此,可控制驱动管DrT的控制端与第一端之间的电压Vgs=(1-a)(Vdata-Vref)+Vth-△V。而流过OLED的电流Ioled=1/2×Ku(Vgs-Vth) 2=1/2×Ku((1-a)(Vdata-Vref)-△V) 2,其中,Ku为与驱动管DrT的迁移率有关的参数。也就是说,Ioled与参数Ku、Vdata、Vref和△V等相关,而与驱动管DrT的阈值电压Vth无关。
根据本公开实施例的像素的补偿方法,通过上述应用两个开关管T1、T2和一个补偿电容Cst的电路结构,结合在重置阶段和补偿阶段对T1、T2的控制策略,使得像素在发光阶段的电流不受驱动管DrT的阈值电压Vth的影响,因而可对Vth的变化进行补偿,该补偿方法不仅使得电路结构简单,而且补偿的实时性较高,能够有效改善显示面板显示残像的问题,大大提高显示面板的显示效果。
为进一步提高补偿精度,本公开还提出一种通过上述根据本公开实施例的显示面板进行像素补偿的方法。
如图10所示,所述方法可包括以下步骤:
S101,检测驱动管的当前阈值电压和当前迁移率(例如,通过第一开关管来检测)。
S102,根据驱动管的当前阈值电压和当前迁移率生成阈值补偿电压和第一迁移率补偿电压。
检测到驱动管DrT的当前阈值电压Vth和当前迁移率Mob,并进一步计算得到阈值补偿电压ΔVth和第一迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob。
S103,当阈值补偿电压大于第一预设阈值时,根据阈值补偿电压和第一迁移率补偿电压生成总补偿电压。
其中,第一预设阈值可为0.5V,当ΔVth>0.5V时,流过OLED的电流Ioled便难以排除Vth的影响了,此时在发光阶段可对数据电压补加kΔVth。
S104,根据总补偿电压对数据信号输入端输入的数据电压进行补偿。
具体地,补偿后的数据电压为Vdata+kΔVth+ΔVmob,其中,k为补偿系数,该补偿系数k可通过后续调试获取,取值范围为0~1。
S105,在驱动管的迁移率发生变化时根据当前阈值电压和变化后的迁移率生成第二迁移率补偿电压。
由于驱动管DrT的迁移率受温度的影响较大,在驱动管DrT迁移率发生变化时,例如在data black时间,即每一帧不写数据的时间可对迁移率补偿电压进行重新获取以更新总补偿电压,可以上一次检测的驱动管的前次阈值电压为基准生成第二迁移率补偿电压ΔVmob_new。
S106,判断第一迁移率补偿电压和第二迁移率补偿电压之间的电压差是否大于第二预设阈值。
S107,如果大于第二预设阈值,则根据第二迁移率补偿电压对总补偿电压进行更新。
也就是说,如果迁移率补偿电压变化较大,可以以最新得到的迁移率补偿电压对数据电压进行补偿。在本公开的一个实施例中,当获取到所有行的驱动管DrT的迁移率后,在下一帧的发光阶段,数据电压可为Vdata+kΔVth+ΔVmob_new。
在像素断电停止发光,例如OLED显示面板因关机而停止发光后,可获取驱动管DrT的断电阈值电压和断电迁移率,并对该断电阈值电压和断电迁移率进行存储,以便在像素再次上电后将存储的断电阈值电压和断电迁移率分别作为 初始阈值电压和初始迁移率,从而在显示面板下一次显示时可根据该初始阈值电压和初始迁移率再次执行对数据电压进行补偿的策略。
综上所述,通过外补偿与补偿电路相结合混合补偿,能够有效提高补偿精度,从而进一步提高了显示面板的显示效果。
