为了使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本发明作进一步地详细描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例提供一种共栅晶体管,包括:独立设置的第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区,以及与第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区相接触的共栅极区;共栅极区、第一电极区和第二电极区构成第一晶体管;共栅极区、第一电极区和第三电极区构成第二晶体管。具体实施过程中,共栅极区的多子(多数载流子)电性与第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区的多子电性相反,例如,若共栅极区的多子为空穴,则第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区的多子便为电子。应理解,在本发明实施例所提供的共栅晶体管中不可避免地存在寄生晶体管,例如,第二电极区、第三电极区和共栅极区便可以构成一个寄生晶体管。虽然本发明实施例以第一晶体管和第二晶体 管描述共栅晶体管的结构,但利用本结构实现其它晶体管功能的情况也应包含于本发明实施例之中。
可选的,第二电极区和第三电极区的电学性质相同。第二电极区和第三电极区的电学性质指的是第二电极区和第三电极区在晶体管电路中所表现出来的性质,第二电极区和第三电极区的电学性质与两个电极区的掺杂浓度、掺杂区的位置、掺杂区的结构等多种因素有关。本发明实施例中,第二电极区和第三电极区的电学性质相同,可以使第一晶体管和第二晶体管中更多的电学参数具有较高的相似度,使共栅效果更好。
为了更具体地说明本发明实施例所提供的共栅晶体管,本发明实施例提供以下两种可行的实现方式以供说明。
可行的共栅晶体管结构之一
图1为本发明实施例提供的一种可行的共栅晶体管结构示意图,如图1所示,共栅晶体管淀积于基板1之上,包括独立设置的第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3,以及与第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3相接触的共栅极区G1;第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3对称设置于共栅极区G1的两侧;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第二电极区A2构成第一晶体管;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第三电极A3区构成第二晶体管。第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3对称设置共栅极区G1的两侧,可以使第一电极区A1和第二电极区A2具有完全相同的栅极区,因此能够提高第一晶体管和第二晶体管的相似度,从而获得更好的共栅效果。
可行的共栅晶体管结构之二
图2为本发明实施例提供的另一种可行的共栅晶体管结构示意图,如图2所示,共栅晶体管淀积于基板1之上,包括独立设置的第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3,以及与第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3相接触的共栅极区G1;第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3设置于共栅极区G1的两侧;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第二电极区A2构成第一晶体管;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第三电极A3区构成第二晶体管。在图2中,共栅极区G1包括第一栅极区G11和第二栅极区G12;第一晶体 管的栅极区包括第一栅极区G11;第二晶体管的栅极区包括第一栅极区G11和第二栅极区G12。应理解,G11和G12之间可以是一体成型,具有相同的材质、宽度等,本发明实施例以G11和G12分别描述只是为了体现第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3之间的位置关系。第一晶体管的栅极区宽度相较于第二晶体管更小,因此第一晶体管的输出电流更大,能够满足一些特殊电路的使用需求,例如,在第一晶体管为像素电路的补偿晶体管时,由于第一晶体管的输出电流更大,因此可以在更短的时间内完成数据信号写入,从而使显示面板更能适应更高分辨率的画面显示。
与图2所示的可行的共栅晶体管结构之二类似的,本发明实施例还提供一种可行的共栅晶体管结构之三。图3为本发明实施例提供的另一种可行的共栅晶体管结构示意图,如图3所示,共栅晶体管淀积于基板1之上,包括独立设置的第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3,以及与第一电极区A1、第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3相接触的共栅极区G1;第二电极区A2和第三电极区A3设置于共栅极区G1的同侧;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第二电极区A2构成第一晶体管;共栅极区G1、第一电极区A1和第三电极A3区构成第二晶体管。图3所示的共栅晶体管可以达到与图2所示的共栅晶体管类似的效果,同样能够满足一些特殊电路的使用需求。在具体实施过程中,可根据实际情况灵活使用上述三种共栅晶体管结构。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供一种共栅晶体管包括:独立设置的第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区,以及与第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区相接触的共栅极区;共栅极区、第一电极区和第二电极区构成第一晶体管;共栅极区、第一电极区和第三电极区构成第二晶体管。采用上述方案,作为共栅晶体管的第一晶体管和第二晶体管共用共栅极区,从而能够节省一个栅极区的空间。而且,由于第一晶体管和第二晶体管共用共栅极区作为栅极区,以及共用第一电极区作为源极区或漏极区,使得第一晶体管和第二晶体管的部分电学参数具有较高的相似度,从而能够达到更加理想的共栅效果。
基于相同的技术构思,本发明实施例还提供一种像素电路,像素电路中包含上述任一实施例所提供的共栅晶体管。图4为本发明实施例提供的一种 像素电路结构示意图,如图4所示,像素电路包括:补偿单元1、驱动单元2、发光单元EL4、电容C3及外接电源ELVDD;补偿单元1通过第一节点N1与驱动单元2电连接;外接电源ELVDD、驱动单元2及发光单元EL4依次串联连接;电容C3位于第一节点N1和外接电源ELVDD之间;补偿单元1外接数据信号data和第一扫描信号Sn,补偿单元1用于在第一扫描信号Sn的作用下,将第一节点N1的电压置为第一电压(V data+V thT1),其中,V thT1为补偿单元1中补偿晶体管的阈值电压;电容C3,用于保持第一节点N1的电压为第一电压(V data+V thT1);驱动单元2外接第一控制信号En,驱动单元2用于根据第一控制信号En,产生驱动电流驱动发光单元发光;当第一控制信号En控制驱动单元2开启时,驱动单元2产生驱动电流驱动发光单元EL4发光;驱动电流根据第一电压(V data+V thT1)、外接电源ELVDD和驱动单元2中驱动晶体管的阈值电压得到,此时,流经发光单元EL4的驱动电流I EL4的大小如公式一所示:
Figure PCTCN2018086545-appb-000001
其中,V ELVDD为外接电源ELVDD的电压,V N1为第一电压,V thT2为驱动晶体管的阈值电压。其中,补偿晶体管为上述实施例中的第一晶体管,驱动晶体管为上述实施例中的第二晶体管,由于驱动晶体管和补偿晶体管为共栅晶体管,因此驱动晶体管的阈值电压与补偿晶体管T1的阈值电压变化趋势相同,即V thT1-V thT2=A,A为常数。从而,公式一可以进一步变形为:
Figure PCTCN2018086545-appb-000002
从而消除了驱动晶体管阈值电流对发光二极管的影响。此外,在如图4所示的像素电路中,数据信号data接入补偿单元1,ELVDD接入驱动单元2,使得,在数据写入阶段数据信号data由补偿单元1写入第一节点N1,在发光阶段,ELVDD接入驱动单元2,数据信号data与外接电源ELVDD相互隔离,从而避免了外接电源ELVDD对数据信号data的影响,提高了发光晶体管的发光稳定性。具体实施过程中,本发明实施例对补偿单元1和驱动单元2的 内部结构并不作具体限定,只要满足上述实施例中补偿单元1和驱动单元2的功能及交互关系的像素电路都应包含于本发明实施例中。
在图4所示的像素电路中,补偿晶体管和驱动晶体管采用如图1所示的共栅晶体管时,补偿晶体管和驱动晶体管的阈值电压之差会非常小,阈值电压的补偿效果更好。
在图4所示的像素电路中,补偿晶体管和驱动晶体管采用如图2所示的共栅晶体管时,补偿晶体管在数据写入阶段可以有更大的输出电流,因此可以在更短的时间内完成数据写入,使得显示面板更适用于高分辨率的画面显示。
可选的,本发明实施例还提供一种可行的驱动单元的实现方式,如图5所示,为本发明实施例提供的一种可行的像素电路结构示意图,图5中,驱动单元2包括自外接电源ELVDD至发光单元EL4之间通过源漏极依次串联的隔离晶体管T8、驱动晶体管T2和发光控制晶体管T4;发光控制晶体管T4和隔离晶体管T8的栅极共同外接第一控制信号En。在数据写入阶段,第一扫描信号Sn控制补偿单元1开启,数据信号data写入第一节点N1,对应着图1或图2中的共栅极区G1,此时,En控制隔离晶体管关闭,使得外接电源信号ELVDD不能进入共栅极区G1,从而避免了外接电源信号ELVDD对数据信号data的影响,进一步提高了发光二极管的发光稳定性。
可选的,本发明实施例所提供的像素电路中还包括初始化单元,如图6所示,为本发明实施例提供的一种具有初始化功能的像素电路架构示意图,如图6所示,还包括初始化单元5,初始化单元5位于第一节点N1和发光单元EL4之间,初始化单元5外接第二扫描信号Sn-1和初始化电压Vin;初始化单元5,用于在第二扫描信号Sn-1的控制下,利用初始化电压Vin初始化第一节点N1和发光单元EL4。当第二扫描信号Sn-1开启初始化单元5时,初始化单元5便将初始化电压Vin输入至第一节点N1和发光单元EL4,电容C3放电,直至电压降到Vin,从而实现了第一节点N1和发光单元EL4的初始化。初始化可以释放N1处的电压,确保接下来的数据写入阶段中,数据信号data可以写入N1节点。发明实施例对初始化单元5的内部结构并不做 具体限定,只要满足上述实施例中初始化单元5的功能及其与补偿单元1和驱动单元2的交互关系的像素电路都应包含于本发明实施例中。具体实施过程中,Vin可以是一个单独的初始化信号,也可以是第二扫描信号Sn-1,此时,第二扫描信号Sn-1开启第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7时,第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7处于饱和状态,第二扫描信号经第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7分别输入第一节点N1和发光单元EL4的阳极直至第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7截止,从而完成对第一节点N1和发光单元EL4的初始化。
为了更具体地说明本发明实施例所提供的技术方案,本发明实施例还提供一种具体可行的像素电路结构,如图7所示,为本发明实施例提供的一种可行的像素电路结构示意图,如图7所示:
补偿单元1包括数据选通晶体管T3、补偿晶体管T1和开关晶体管T5,驱动单元2包括驱动晶体管T2、发光控制晶体管T4,初始化单元5包括第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7。
补偿单元1中,数据选通晶体管T3的漏极与补偿晶体管T1的源极电连接,数据选通晶体管T3的源极与数据信号data电连接;数据选通晶体管T3的栅极与第一扫描信号Sn电连接;补偿晶体管T1的栅极通过第一节点N1与驱动晶体管T2的栅极电连接,补偿晶体管T1的漏极与开关晶体管T5的源极电连接。开关晶体管T5的漏极与补偿晶体管T1的栅极电连接,开关晶体管T5的栅极与第一扫描信号Sn电连接。
驱动单元2中,隔离晶体管T8源极外接外接电源ELVDD,隔离晶体管T8的栅极外接第一控制信号En,隔离晶体管T8的漏极与驱动晶体管T2的源极电连接;驱动晶体管T2漏极与发光控制晶体管T4的源极电连接;发光控制晶体管T4的漏极与发光单元EL4电连接,发光控制晶体管T4的栅极外接第一控制信号En。且,由于共栅晶体管中,驱动晶体管T2和补偿晶体管T1共用了第一电极区,因此,在像素电路中驱动晶体管T2的源极和补偿晶体管T1的源极电连接。
初始化单元5中,第一初始化晶体管T6的源极外接初始化电压Vin;第 一初始化晶体管T6的漏极与第一节点N1电连接;第一初始化晶体管T6的栅极与第二扫描信号Sn-1电连接;第二初始化晶体管T7的源极外接初始化电压Vin;第二初始化晶体管T7的漏极与发光单元EL4电连接;第二初始化晶体T7管的栅极与第二扫描信号Sn-1电连接。
电容C3位于第一节点N1和外接电源ELVDD之间。
在图7中各晶体管为P沟道金属氧化物半导体晶体管(Positive channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor,PMOS)时,可采用如图8所示的驱动信号进行驱动。图8为本发明实施例提供的一种驱动信号示意图。
初始化阶段,第一扫描信号Sn为高电平,致使数据选通晶体管T3和开关晶体管T5截止,补偿单元1关闭。第一控制信号En为高电平,致使发光控制晶体管T4和隔离晶体管T8截止,驱动单元2关闭。第二控制信号Sn-1为低电平,致使第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7导通,T6将初始化电压Vin传递至第一节点N1,从而将第一节点N1初始化,T7将初始化电压Vin传递至发光单元EL4,从而将发光单元EL4初始化。
数据写入阶段,第一扫描信号Sn为低电平,致使数据选通晶体管T3和开关晶体管T5导通,补偿单元1开启。第一控制信号En为高电平,致使发光控制晶体管T4和隔离晶体管T8截止,驱动单元2关闭。第二扫描信号Sn-1为高电平,致使第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7截止,初始化单元5关闭。数据信号data经数据选通晶体管T3到达补偿晶体管T1的源极,由于开关晶体管T5导通,补偿晶体管T1工作在饱和区,数据信号data被写入第一节点N1直至第一节点N1的电压到达第一电压(V data+V thT1)后,补偿晶体管T1截止。
发光阶段,第一扫描信号Sn为高电平,致使数据选通晶体管T3和开关晶体管T5截止,补偿单元1关闭。第一控制信号En为低电平,致使发光控制晶体管T4和隔离晶体管T8导通,驱动单元2开启。第二扫描信号Sn-1为高电平,致使第一初始化晶体管T6和第二初始化晶体管T7截止,初始化单元5关闭。驱动晶体管T2产生驱动电流驱动发光单元EL4发光。由于第一节点N1的电压为第一电压(V data+V thT1),可以对驱动晶体管T2的栅极电压 进行阈值补偿,使得驱动电流不再受驱动晶体管T2阈值漂移的影响。
应理解,第一电极区也可以作为补偿晶体管T1和驱动晶体管T2的漏极,反应在电路结构示意图中,应是补偿晶体管T1和驱动晶体管T2的漏极电连接,此时的电路结构工作原理与源极电连接情况下(图7所示)的电路结构相同,本发明实施例对此不作赘述。
基于相同的技术构思,本发明实施例提供一种像素结构,可以应用于上述任一项实施例所提供的像素电路。
可选的,本发明实施例还提供一种具体可行的像素结构以供说明。图9为本发明实施例提供的一种具体可行的像素结构示意图,图9所示的为第一晶体管和第二晶体管源极相连的情况。图9中包括如图1所示的共栅晶体管(图2所示的共栅晶体管同理),其中,第一晶体管为补偿晶体管T1,第二晶体管为驱动晶体管T2,以及,与驱动晶体管T2的第一电极区A1为延长关系的驱动侧电极延长区a1;与第三电极区A3为延长关系的第三电极延长区a3;驱动侧电极延长区a12与第一控制信号线交叠处为隔离晶体管T8的栅极区,驱动侧电极延长区a12远离共栅极区G1的一侧与外接电源信号线连接;第三电极延长区a3与第一控制信号线交叠处为发光控制晶体管T4的栅极区,第三电极延长区a3远离共栅极区G1的一侧与发光单元EL4连接。具体实施过程中,第一控制信号线与驱动侧电极延长区a12和第三电极延长区a3之间还间隔有绝缘介质层,第三电极延长区可通过在绝缘介质层上制作过孔的方式与发光单元EL4电连接,这些都是半导体领域的公知常识,本发明实施例对此类内容不多作描述。
可选的,如图9所示,共栅极区G1上方设置有金属板M,金属板M既可以作为驱动晶体管和补偿晶体管的共用栅极,又可以作为图4中电容C3的电容极板之一。如图9所示,像素结构中还包括:与补偿晶体管T1的第一电极区A1为延长关系的补偿侧电极延长区a11,以及,与第二电极区A2为延长关系的第二电极延长区a2;补偿侧电极延长区a11与第一扫描信号线的交叠区域构成数据选通晶体管T3的栅极区;补偿侧电极延长区a11远离共栅极区G1的一侧外接数据信号线;第二电极延长区a2与第一扫描信号线的交 叠区域构成开关晶体管T5的栅极区;位于第一扫描信号线的第二电极延长区a2远离共栅极区一侧与金属板M电连接(图中未示出)。具体实施过程中,第一扫描信号线与补偿侧电极延长区a11和第二电极延长区a2之间还间隔有绝缘介质层,第二电极延长区a2与金属板之间的电连接可以通过多层金属互联实现,即在图9所示的结构上方淀积介质层,通过层间互联实现第二电极延长区a2与金属板M之间的电连接。

可选的,如图10所示,共栅极区G1上方设置有金属板M,金属板M既可以作为驱动晶体管和补偿晶体管的共用栅极,又可以作为图4中电容C3的电容极板之一。如图10所示,像素结构中还包括:与补偿晶体管T1的第一电极区A1为延长关系的补偿侧电极延长区a11,以及,与第二电极区A2为延长关系的第二电极延长区a2;补偿侧电极延长区a11与第一扫描信号线的交叠区域构成开关晶体管T5的栅极区;补偿侧电极延长区a11远离共栅极区G1的一侧与金属板M电连接;第二电极延长区a2与第一扫描信号线的交叠区域构成数据选通晶体管T3的栅极区;位于第一扫描信号线的第二电极延长区a2远离共栅极区一侧外接数据信号线。具体实施过程中,第一扫描信号 线与补偿侧电极延长区a11和第二电极延长区a2之间还间隔有绝缘介质层,补偿侧电极延长区a11与金属板之间的电连接可以通过多层金属互联实现,即在图10所示的结构上方淀积介质层,通过层间互联实现补偿侧电极延长区a11与金属板M之间的电连接。
基于相同的技术构思,本发明实施例还提供一种显示面板,包括如上述任一项实施例提供的共栅晶体管,和/或,如上述任一项实施例提供的像素电路,和/或,如上述任一项实施例提供的像素结构。图11为本发明实施例提供的一种显示面板结构示意图,图11中,显示器包含一个N×M的像素电路阵列,扫描驱动单元产生扫描信号S0、S1、S2……SN,Sn为扫描驱动单元输入第n行像素的扫描信号,n=1,2,……N;数据驱动单元产生数据信号data,包括D1、D2…DM共M个data信号,分别对应M列像素,Dm为第m列像素的数据信号data,m=1,2,……M;发光驱动单元产生第一控制信号E1、E2……EN,En为发光驱动单元输入第n行像素的第一控制信号,n=1,2,……N。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供一种共栅晶体管、像素电路、像素结构及显示面板,其中,共栅晶体管包括:独立设置的第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区,以及与第一电极区、第二电极区和第三电极区相接触的共栅极区;第二电极区和第三电极区设置于共栅极区的两侧;共栅极区、第一电极区和第二电极区构成第一晶体管;共栅极区、第一电极区和第三电极区构成第二晶体管。采用上述方案,作为共栅晶体管的第一晶体管和第二晶体管共用共栅极区,从而能够节省一个栅极区的空间。而且,由于第一晶体管和第二晶体管共用共栅极区作为栅极区,以及共用第一电极区作为源极区或漏极区,使得第一晶体管和第二晶体管的部分电学参数具有较高的相似度,从而能够达到更加理想的共栅效果。
