【具体实施方式】
下面结合附图和实施例对本发明进行详细的说明。
请参阅图1,图1是本发明第一实施例的像素电路的结构示意图。在本实施例中,像素电路包括:电致发光元件D、第一开关管T1、第二开关管T2、第三开关管T3、第四开关管T4、第五开关管T5、第一电容C1以及第二电容C2。
第一开关管T1的第一端d连接第四开关管T4的第二端,第一开关管T1的第二端s连接电致发光元件D1的第一端,第一开关管T1的第一控制端连接第二开关管T2的第二端。
第二开关管T2的第一端用于输入第一时序信号Data,第二开关管T2的控制端用于输入第二时序信号SCAN1。
第一电容C1的第一端连接第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1,第一电容C1的第二端连接第一电压V1。
第三开关管T3的第一端连接第二电压V2,第三开关管T2的第二端连接第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2,第三开关管T3的控制端用于输入第三时序信号SCAN2。
第二电容C2的第一端连接第一开关管T1的第二控制端,第二电容C2的第二端连接电致发光元件D的第一端。
第四开关管T4的第一端连接第三电压VDD,第四开关管T4的控制端用于输入第四时序信号EM。
第五开关管T5的第一端连接第二电容C2的第二端,第五开关管T5的第二端连接第四电压V3,第五开关管T5的控制端用于输入第五时序信号RESET。
电致发光元件D的第二端连接第五电压VSS。
优选地,第一开关管T1为双栅薄膜晶体管,第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1为底栅,第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2为顶栅。第一开关管T1的第一端d为漏极,第一开关管T1的第二端s为源极。
优选地,第一开关管T1、第二开关管T2、第三开关管T3、第四开关管T4以及第五开关管T5均为N型薄膜晶体管。
优选地,电致发光元件D为OLED发光元件。
优选地,第四电压V3为恒定电压,第四电压V3小于第一时序信号Data的最低电压MIN(Vdata)与第一开关管T1的阈值电压Vth的差值,即V3<MIN(Vdata)-Vth。
优选地,第二电压V2也为恒定电压。
请参阅图2,图2是本发明第一实施例的像素电路各个时序信号的时序图。
下面结合图1和图2对本发明第一实施例的像素电路的工作原理进行说明。
在第一阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为高电平,第四时序信号EM为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管T2打开,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5打开。第一时序信号Data在第一阶段的电压值为参考恒定电压Vref,由于V3<MIN(Vdata)-Vth,该参考恒定电压Vref在第一阶段被写入第一开关管T1的第一控制端,第一电容C1和第二电容C2的两个电极被复位,为后续的补偿以及写入数据做准备。
在第二阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第四时序信号EM为高电平,第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管T2打开,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3打开,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭。在第二阶段,A点电位升高至Vref-Vth,第二电容C2存储了第一开关管T1的阈值电压Vth。
在第三阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第四时序信号EM为高电平,第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管打开T2,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3关闭。在第三阶段,第一时序信号Data为数据信号,数据信号从数据线写入第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1,第一开关管T1的第二端s电位充电为Voled,Voled的大小由电致发光元件D发光阶段的压差以及第五电压VSS决定。第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2的电位在第二电容C2耦合的作用下变为V2-Vref+Vth+Voled,因此,在第三阶段,第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压为Vgs2=V2-Vref+Vth,第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压为Vgs1=Vdata-Voled。
在第四阶段,第四时序信号EM为高电平,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管T2关闭,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3关闭。由于第一电容C1和第二电容C2的保持作用,在第四阶段,第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压仍然为第三阶段的数值即为Vgs2=V2-Vref+Vth,第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压仍然为第三阶段的数值即为Vgs1=Vdata-Voled,因此,在第四阶段通过电致发光元件D的电流Ioled为:
Ioled=k(Vgs-Vth)^2         (公式1-1)
Ioled=k[Vgs1+(1/Etop)*Vgs2-Vth]^2    (公式1-2)
其中,Etop是第一开关管T1的第二控制端,即其顶栅的系数,定义为Etop=ΔVth/ΔVge2,这里Etop默认为1。
所以带入Vgs1和Vgs2的表达式可以得到
Ioled=k(Vdata-Voled+V2-Vref)^2        (公式1-3)
由公式1-3可知,该电致发光元件D的发光电流Ioled与第二电压V2和参考恒定电压Vref有关,因此,本实施例的像素电路补偿了第一开关管T1的阈值电压Vth波动的影响,同时可以将电致发光元件D发光时电致发光元件D的第一端(即其阳极)的电压负反馈到工作过程中,防止发光过程中受到第一开关管T1电子迁移率变化影响。
优选地,第一阶段为复位阶段,第二阶段为补偿阶段,第三阶段为写入阶段,第四阶段为发光阶段。
请参阅图3,图3是本发明第二实施例的像素电路的结构示意图。本实施例与第一实施例的区别在于,像素电路进一步包括第六开关管T6,第六开关管T6的第一端连接第五电压V4,第六开关管T6的第二端连接第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1,第六开关管T6的控制端用于输入第三时序信号SCAN2。
第五电压V4为恒定电压,且大小等于参考恒定电压Vref。
请参阅图4,图4是本发明第二实施例的像素电路各个时序信号的时序图。
下面结合图3和图4对本发明第二实施例的像素电路的工作原理进行说明。
本实施例中,第一阶段的参考恒定电压Vref由第五电压V4提供,而不同于第一实施例中的参考恒定电压Vref由第一时序信号Data提供,从而可以避免第一时序信号Data在第一阶段和第二阶段分别交错写入参考恒定电压Vref和数据信号。
在第一阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为高电平,第四时序信号EM为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控 制第二开关管T2打开,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5打开,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第六开关管T6打开。由于V3<MIN(Vdata)-Vth,第五电压V4提供的参考恒定电压Vref在第一阶段被写入第一开关管T1的第一控制端,第一电容C1和第二电容C2的两个电极被复位,为后续的补偿以及写入数据做准备。
在第二阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第四时序信号EM为高电平,第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管T2打开,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3打开,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第六开关管T6打开。在第二阶段,A点电位升高至Vref-Vth,第二电容C2存储了第一开关管T1的阈值电压Vth。
在第三阶段,第二时序信号SCAN1、第四时序信号EM为高电平,第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控制第二开关管打开T2,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第六开关管T6关闭。在第三阶段,第一时序信号Data为数据信号,数据信号从数据线写入第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1,第一开关管T1的第二端s电位充电为Voled,Voled的大小由电致发光元件D发光阶段的压差以及第五电压VSS决定。第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2的电位在第二电容C2耦合的作用下变为V2-Vref+Vth+Voled,因此,在第三阶段,第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压为Vgs2=V2-Vref+Vth,第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压为Vgs1=Vdata-Voled。
在第四阶段,第四时序信号EM为高电平,第二时序信号SCAN1、第三时序信号SCAN2、第五时序信号RESET为低电平。利用第二时序信号SCAN1控 制第二开关管T2关闭,利用第四时序信号EM控制第四开关管T4打开,利用第五时序信号RESET控制第五开关管T5关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第三开关管T3关闭,利用第三时序信号SCAN2控制第六开关管T6关闭。由于第一电容C1和第二电容C2的保持作用,在第四阶段,第一开关管T1的第二控制端g2与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压仍然为第三阶段的数值即为Vgs2=V2-Vref+Vth,第一开关管T1的第一控制端g1与第一开关管T1的第二端s之间的电压仍然为第三阶段的数值即为Vgs1=Vdata-Voled,因此,在第四阶段通过电致发光元件D的电流Ioled为:
Ioled=k(Vgs-Vth)^2         (公式1-1)
Ioled=k[Vgs1+(1/Etop)*Vgs2-Vth]^2     (公式1-2)
其中,Etop是第一开关管T1的第二控制端,即其顶栅的系数,定义为Etop=ΔVth/ΔVge2,这里Etop默认为1。
所以带入Vgs1和Vgs2的表达式可以得到
Ioled=k(Vdata-Voled+V2-Vref)^2      (公式1-3)
由公式1-3可知,该电致发光元件D的发光电流Ioled与第二电压V2和参考恒定电压Vref有关,因此,本实施例的像素电路补偿了第一开关管T1的阈值电压Vth波动的影响,同时可以将电致发光元件D发光时电致发光元件D的第一端(即其阳极)的电压负反馈到工作过程中,防止发光过程中受到第一开关管T1电子迁移率变化影响。
