具体实施方式
下面详细描述本公开的实施例，所述实施例的示例在附图中示出，其中相同或类似的标号表示相同或类似的元件或具有相同或类似功能的元件。下面通过参考附图描述的实施例是示例性的，旨在用于解释本公开，而不能理解为对本公开的限制。
为了使本公开的实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合附图，对本公开的实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整的描述。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，本领域技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其它实施例，也都属于本公开保护的范围。
除非另外定义，否则在此使用的所有术语(包括技术和科学术语)具有与本公开主题所属领域的技术人员所通常理解的相同含义。进一步将理 解的是，诸如在通常使用的词典中定义的那些的术语应解释为具有与说明书上下文和相关技术中它们的含义一致的含义，并且将不以理想化或过于正式的形式来解释，除非在此另外明确定义。如在此所使用的，将两个或更多部分“连接”或“耦接”到一起的陈述应指这些部分直接结合到一起或通过一个或多个中间部件结合。
在本公开的所有实施例中，由于晶体管的源极和漏极(发射极和集电极)是对称的，并且N型晶体管和P型晶体管的源极和漏极(发射极和集电极)之间的导通电流方向相反，因此在本公开的实施例中，统一将晶体管的受控中间端称为控制极，信号输入端称为第一极，信号输出端称为第二极。本公开的实施例中所采用的晶体管主要是开关晶体管。另外，诸如“第一”和“第二”的术语仅用于将一个部件(或部件的一部分)与另一个部件(或部件的另一部分)区分开。
像素电路的设计对AMOLED有机发光显示器是关键的，而AMOLED中的有机发光二极管OLED属于电流驱动，需要稳定的电流来控制发光。然而，在驱动OLED发光的像素驱动电路中，由于工艺制程和器件老化等原因，各像素点的驱动晶体管的阈值电压存在不均匀性。这样就导致了流过每个像素点中的OLED的电流发生变化，从而影响整个屏幕的显示效果。
另外，参考目前触控技术的发展趋势，与电容式触控方式相比，光感触控除了具备同样的触控灵敏度以外，还不受模组本身尺寸的限制。下面参考附图来描述本公开实施例提出的具有光学感应功能的像素电路以及具有其的触控显示装置。

根据本公开实施例的像素电路100能够实现光学感应与像素驱动的整合。此外，像素驱动电路10与光学感应电路20共用第一控制线Em1、第二控制线Em2、扫描线Scan1和数据线Data，这实现了光学感应与像素驱动的高效整合，节省了像素电路的布局空间。
图2示出根据本公开的实施例的像素电路200的示例电路图。
如图2所示，光学感应电路20可包括光电传感器201和信号控制电路(光学感应电路20中除了光电传感器201的部分)。光电传感器201被配置为感应光信号，并将所感应的光信号转换为电信号。

在图2所示的示例中，像素驱动电路10可包括第一驱动晶体管M1、第二驱动晶体管M2、第二电容器C2、第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6。第一驱动晶体管M1和第二驱动晶体管M2为驱动TFT。第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6为开关TFT。像素驱动电路10通过控制第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6来驱动第二驱动晶体管M2生成驱动电流，以驱动发光元件30发光。
根据本公开的实施例，感光晶体管N1、第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2、第三晶体管T3、第一驱动晶体管M1、第二驱动晶体管M2、第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6均可采用“P”型TFT。像素驱动 电路10和光学感应电路20中的晶体管全部采用“P”型TFT的布局方式有利于工艺制程。
在本公开的实施例中，像素驱动电路10可基于第一控制信号、第二控制信号、扫描信号和数据信号向有机发光二极管30输出电信号。有机发光二极管30通过电子和空穴(带正电的离子)的结合产生辐射光。这样，有机发光二极管30可直接把电转化为光。像素驱动电路10通过稳定的电流来控制有机发光二极管30发光。
根据本公开的实施例，像素电路100可采用低温多晶硅技术(Low Temperature Poly-silicon，简称LTPS)工艺制程，从而使得多个薄膜晶体管加电容器的设计，不会影响模组的开口率。
图3示出用于图2所示的像素电路200的各信号的时序图。在以下的描述中，假定所有晶体管都是P型晶体管。第一电压为高电压，而第二电压为低电压。
如图3所示，在第一阶段Ⅰ，第一控制信号VEm1为低电压。第二控制信号VEm2、数据信号Vdata和扫描信号VScan1为高电压。图4示出根据本公开的实施例的像素电路200在第一阶段Ⅰ的示例性等效电路图，其中，晶体管上的斜线表示该晶体管截止。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为低电压，第一晶体管T1导通。由于扫描信号VScan1为高电压，第二晶体管T2截止。由于第二控制信号VEm2为高电压，第三晶体管T3截止。因此，来自重置信号提供端Vcom的重置信号通过第一晶体管T1对感光晶体管N1进行重置。感光晶体管N1导通，从而使得第一电容器C1被重置。重置信号提供端Vcom可为地端。因此，感光晶体管N1和第一电容器C1通过第一晶体管T1接地。此时感光晶体管N1的控制端接地，因此感光晶体管N1导通。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为低电压，第四晶体管T4导通。因此，第二电压端Vint的第二电压通过第四晶体管T4对第二电容器C2进行重置(如图4中的箭头所示)，以将第二电容器C2的第一端的电压(即，第一节点a的电压)重置为第二电压。在第二电压端Vint提供低电压的情况下， 第一驱动晶体管M1和第二驱动晶体管M2导通。由于扫描信号VScan1为高电压，第五晶体管T5截止。由于第二控制信号VEm2为高电压，第六晶体T6截止。
在第二阶段Ⅱ，扫描信号VScan1为低电压。第一控制信号VEm1、第二控制信号VEm2和数据信号Vdata为高电压。图5示出根据本公开的实施例的像素电路200在第二阶段Ⅱ的示例性等效电路图，其中，晶体管上的斜线表示该晶体管截止。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为高电压，第一晶体管T1截止。因此，来自重置信号提供端的重置信号不影响感光晶体管N1和第一电容器C1。由于扫描信号VScan1为低电压，第二晶体管T2导通。由于第二控制信号VEm2为高电压，第三晶体管T3截止。在第一电容器C1的保持作用下，感光晶体管N1的控制极被保持为低电平，因此感光晶体管N1继续导通。因此，数据线Data提供的数据信号Vdata通过感光晶体管N1向第一电容器C1充电。当有光照射到感光晶体管N1时，感光晶体管N1感应到的光信号的强度增加。感光晶体管N1将所感应到的光信号转换为电信号，因此，第一电容器C1的充电电流增加。对于正常接收光照射的感光晶体管N1，第一电容器C1储存的电信号为固定值。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为高电压，第四晶体管T4截止。因此，第一节点a的电压不受到来自第二电压端Vint的第二电压的影响。由于第二电容器C2的保持作用，第一节点a保持上一阶段的低电压。因此，第一驱动晶体管M1和第二驱动晶体管M2继续导通。由于扫描信号VScan1为低电压，第五晶体管T5导通。因此，数据线提供的数据信号Vdata通过第五晶体管T5和第一驱动晶体管M1对第二电容器C2充电直至第一节点a的电压达到Vdata+Vth1为止。由于第一节点a的电压达到Vdata+Vth1，第一驱动晶体管M1截止。Vth1为第一驱动晶体管M1的阈值电压。由于第二控制信号VEm2为低电压，第六晶体管T6截止。
在第三阶段Ⅲ，第二控制信号VEm2和数据信号Vdata为低电压。第一控制信号VEm1和扫描信号VScan1为高电压。图6示出根据本公开的 实施例的像素电路200在第三阶段Ⅲ的示例性等效电路图，其中，晶体管上的斜线表示该晶体管截止。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为高电压，第一晶体管T1截止。因此，来自重置信号提供端的重置信号不影响感光晶体管N1和第一电容器C1。由于扫描信号VScan1为高电压，第二晶体管T2截止。因此，数据信号Vdata不能够继续通过第二晶体管T2对第一电容器C1充电。由于第二控制信号VEm2为低电压，第三晶体管T3导通。因此，第一电容器C1通过第三晶体管T3进行放电以通过读取线RL输出其存储的电信号。
由于第一控制信号VEm1为高电压，第四晶体管T4截止。因此，第一节点a的电压不受到来自第二电压端Vint的第二电压的影响。由于扫描信号VScan1为高电压，第五晶体管T5截止。因此，第一节点a的电压不受到来自数据信号端Data的数据信号Vdata的影响。由于第二控制信号VEm2为低电压，第六晶体管T6导通。因此，第二驱动晶体管M2生成驱动电流并通过第六晶体管T6向发光元件30(例如有机发光二极管OLED)提供该驱动电流。
根据驱动晶体管饱和电流公式可以得到流经有机发光二极管OLED的电流I OLED为：
I OLED＝K(V GS–Vth2) 2
＝K[(Vdata+Vth1)–V1–Vth2] 2
＝K(Vdata–V1) 2  (1)
其中，V GS为第二驱动晶体管M2的栅源极电压差，即第一节点a的电压与第一电压端V1提供的第一电压V1之差。Vth1为第一驱动晶体管M1的阈值电压。Vth2为第二驱动晶体管M2的阈值电压。根据镜像电路原理，认为Vth1与Vth2近似相等，即Vth1＝Vth2。
由上式(1)中可以看到，此时流经有机发光二极管OLED的电流I OLED不受阈值电压Vth1和Vth2的影响，避免了驱动晶体管由于工艺制程及长时间的操作造成的阈值电压漂移，消除阈值电压对I OLED的影响，保证OLED的正常工作。由此，提高了OLED的使用寿命，并保证屏幕显示的均匀性。
本领域的技术人员应当理解，在本实施例的一个替代实施例中，如图2和图4-6所示的移位寄存器单元100中的晶体管也可以都是N型晶体管。在这种情况下，第一电压端V1输出低电压，第二电压端Vint输出高电压，重置信号提供端输出高电压。在该替代实施例中，各信号在各个阶段的电压(未示出)与图3中示出的各信号在各个阶段的电压相反。
此外，本领域的技术人员还应当理解，在本实施例的其它替代实施例中，还可以不仅仅使用单一类型的晶体管，即，可以设置部分晶体管为N型晶体管，部分晶体管为P型晶体管。基于本公开实施例的任何变型和修改都应该落入本公开的保护范围内。
图7示出根据本公开的实施例的驱动如图1所示的像素电路100的驱动方法的示意性流程图。
如图7所示，在该驱动方法中，在步骤S10，基于第一控制信号Em1，重置光学感应电路20和像素驱动电路10。
在一个示例中，在驱动如图2所示的像素电路200的情况下，基于第一控制信号Em1，向感应重置单元202和光电传感器201提供重置信号，以重置第一电容器C1和光电传感器201。基于第一控制信号Em1，向显示重置单元101提供第二电压，以重置第二电容器C2。
在步骤S11，基于第一控制信号Em1、扫描信号Vscan和数据信号Vdata，将光学感应电路20所感应的光信号转换为电信号，在像素驱动电路10中存储用于驱动发光元件30发光的电压。
在一个示例中，在驱动如图2所示的像素电路200的情况下，基于第一控制信号Em1和扫描信号Vscan，向感应写入单元203和光电传感器201提供数据信号Vdata，以向第一电容器C1提供数据信号Vdata。基于扫描信号Vscan，向显示写入单元102和第一驱动晶体管M1提供数据信号Vdata，以使第二电容器C2充电至第一驱动晶体管M1截止。
在步骤S12，基于第二控制信号Em2，从光学感应电路20输出电信号，以及在像素驱动电路10中，通过所存储的电压对应的电流来驱动发光元件30发光。
在一个示例中，在驱动如图2所示的像素电路200的情况下，基于第二控制信号Em2，使第一电容器C1经由感应控制单元204进行放电，以经由读取线RL输出电信号。基于第二控制信号Em2和第二电容器C2，驱动第二驱动晶体管M2生成驱动电流，并经由显示控制单元103向发光元件30提供驱动电流。
图8是根据本公开的实施例的触控显示装置800的示意性框图。该触控显示装置包括：多个如图1所示的像素电路100，以及处理单元810。
在本公开的一个示例中，可针对光电传感器201对应设置发光单元(未示出)。发光单元可采用预设频率发射光线。当进行触控操作时，发光单元发射的光线可被反射到光电传感器201。光电传感器201根据感应到的反射光线生成电信号。
该处理单元810与该多个像素电路100的读取线RL分别耦接，并被配置为基于来自多条读取线RL的电信号，确定是否发生触控操作。
例如，光学感应电路20通过光电传感器201感应光线。当手指或者激光笔靠近像素电路时，光电传感器201感应到的光信号发生变化，从而导致其输出的电信号发生变化。由此，该处理单元810可根据触控前后电信号变化的差值与预设阈值来确定是否发生触摸操作。
在一个示例中，处理单元810可被配置为基于电信号计算光信号的变化量，并基于光信号的变化量和预设阈值来确定是否发生触控操作。例如，处理单元可包括放大器和处理器。电信号通过读取线RL可被传送到放大器。放大器对电信号进行放大处理，并将放大后的信号传送给处理器。处理器对放大后的信号进行数据分析，以确定光信号的变化量是否超过预设阈值，从而确定是否发生触控操作。具体地，处理器可根据触控前后电信号的变化情况确定光信号的变化量，并将光信号的变化量与无触控操作时的预设阈值进行比较，以及根据比较结果判断是否有触控操作(光信号变化)。例如，如果光信号的变化量大于预设阈值，则确定发生触控操作。
应当理解的是，多个具有光学感应功能的像素电路100与多个子像素对应，每个具有光学感应功能的像素电路100用于驱动对应子像素的发光 元件30发光，并对对应像素上的触控操作进行识别。处理单元810进一步被配置为在确定发生触控操作的情况下，基于相应的像素电路100的读取线RL和第二控制线Em2确定触控位置。在本公开的实施例中，触控位置的X方向坐标由第二控制线Em2确定，触控位置的Y方向坐标由读取线RL确定。例如，当第a条第二控制线Em2和第b条读取线RL对应的光电传感器201感应到的光信号的变化量大于预设阈值时，则确定(a，b)位置发生触控操作。由此，通过读取线RL和第二控制线Em2可确定触控位置的坐标。
需要说明的是，采用有机发光二极管的显示装置可不需要液晶作为灰阶显示的媒介。因此，光感触控不会影响到显示问题。
