Description

显示面板 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种显示面板。
背景技术
有机发光二极管 ( Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED ) 显示器具有自发光、驱动电压低、发光效率高、响应时间短、清晰度与对比度高、近180°视角、使用温度范围宽、可实现柔性显示与大面积全色显示等诸多优点,引起了科研界和产业界极大的兴趣,被业界公认为是最有发展潜力的显示装置。
OLED显示面板通过电源走线向OLED器件提供正常工作所需要的电源信号,以实现画面显示,OLED显示面板通常需要在其边框区域形成各种走线,比如VDD电源走线和VSS电源走线,以为像素单元提供高电压和低电压。参见图1,其为传统OLED显示面板的电源配置结构示意图,传统OLED电源配置结构中,如图所示,显示面板的中间部分为显示区域,显示区域内设有矩阵排列的像素单元,设置在该显示区域下侧的驱动芯片(IC)10向显示区域外的VDD电源走线15连通,多条纵向的位于显示区域内的VDD信号线16在显示区域下侧与VDD电源走线15连通,即驱动IC10、VDD电源走线15及VDD信号线16之间形成通路,进而驱动IC10通过设置在多个像素单元之间且与像素单元相电性连接的多条VDD信号线16向显示区域内的每个像素单元提供电源电压VDD。
然而,由于VDD信号线16本身的电阻,VDD电源电压在VDD信号线16靠近驱动IC10的一侧向远离驱动IC10的一侧传递的过程中,VDD信号线16上的损耗使得VDD信号线16两侧产生明显的欧姆电压降(IR drop),比较大的压降导致不同像素单元的VDD电压信号有差异,从而在亮度上表现为显示面板在点亮时远离驱动IC10的显示区上部比靠近驱动IC10的显示区底部要暗。而在现有小尺寸面板结构中,由于驱动IC仅设置在显示面板的一侧边沿,这就从根本上造成显示面板亮度不对称,亮度均匀性较差的特点。
而显示屏的亮度均匀性是判定显示屏好坏的一个重要指标,亮度不均匀性体现到屏幕上就会导致屏幕较大的明暗差异,我们的眼球在处理这种明暗差异时会消耗较多能量,那么我们在使用亮度不均匀的屏幕时眼睛会很容易疲劳。
因此,为解决上述问题,亟需提供一种新的电源信号传递方案来提升OLED显示面板的亮度均匀性。

具体地,所述 VDD 引入部 500 属于设于所述绝缘层上第二源漏极金属层。
具体地,所述中部显示区 702 可以位于显示面板的正中间位置,也可以位于显示面板中部的其他位置,其最佳位置可以经过优化计算给出。
具体地,所述电源信号结构还包括位于显示区两侧的与驱动芯片 200 电性连接的 VSS 电源线 800 ,以向每个像素单元提供 VSS 电源信号。
本发明显示面板的第一实施例,通过 VDD 引入部 500 将驱动芯片 200 提供的 VDD 电源信号从中部显示区 702 引入,然后再由 VDD 信号线 400 从中部显示区 702 向两侧的下侧显示区 701 及上侧显示区 703 传递,使显示区域上部和下部的 VDD 压降基本保持一致,且 VDD 压降可减小为常规现有面板的一半不到,从而可显著提升面板的亮度均匀性。
请参阅图 4 ,图 4 为本发明显示面板的第二实施例中电源信号结构的平面示意图,本实施例与上述第一实施例相比,其区别在于,所述 VDD 引入部 500 为网状结构,其还包括多条与所述多条 VDD 纵向引入线垂直相交的 VDD 横向引入线,即所述 VDD 引入部 500 相较于第一实施例具有更大的面积,其本身的电阻就越小。
具体地,本实施例中,所述 VDD 引入部 500 铺满显示区域,其每条所述 VDD 纵向引入线从与 VDD 电源线电性连接的一端延伸至所述上部显示区的上侧边缘。
进一步地,所述 VDD 引入部 500 还通过绝缘层 600 设置的过孔与每条所述 VDD 信号线 400 在上部显示区 703 电性连接,这样可以进一步降低上部显示区 703 VDD 压降。此时,由于上部显示区 703 与下部显示区 701 VDD 压降趋势不同,通过仿真优化,可使中部显示区 702 位置下移,进而可以使上部显示区 703 的电流与下部显示区 701 的电流一致,同样也可以提升显示面板的亮度均匀性。
具体地,所述中部显示区 702 的具体位置按照其能够使所述下部显示区 701 按照单层金属走线的 VDD 下降趋势与 703 按照双层金属走线的 VDD 下降趋势基本一致来进行确定,此时显示区域顶部与底部的 VDD 压降基本一致,亮度均匀性可以达到最优情况,亮度均匀性可以达到 97% 。其他技术特征均与上述第一实施例相同,在此不再赘述。
本发明显示面板的第二实施例,通过 VDD 引入部 500 将驱动芯片 200 提供的 VDD 电源信号从中部显示区 702 引入,并将 VDD 引入部 500 设置为网状结构且其使其通过绝缘层 600 设置的过孔与每条所述 VDD 信号线 400 在上部显示区 703 电性连接,进一步降低上部显示区 703 VDD 压降,使显示区域上部和下部的 VDD 压降基本保持一致,从而可显著提升面板的亮度均匀性。
请参阅图 5 ,图 5 为本发明显示面板的第三实施例中电源信号结构的平面示意图,本实施例与上述第一实施例相比,其区别在于,所述 VDD 引入部 500 为整面结构,且整面覆盖显示区域,因此其本身具有更小的电阻,可以进一步提高显示面板亮度均匀性。
具体地,本实施例中,所述 VDD 引入部 500 需要在所述 OLED 器件的阳极与对应的所述薄膜晶体管的源漏极的电性连接位置处作避让处理,即在此处做过孔处理,以使得阳极与源漏极可以实现电性连接。其他技术特征均与上述第一实施例相同,在此不再赘述。
本发明显示面板的第三实施例,通过 VDD 引入部 500 将驱动芯片 200 提供的 VDD 电源信号从中部显示区 702 引入,使显示区域上部和下部的 VDD 压降基本保持一致,从而可显著提升面板的亮度均匀性,并将 VDD 引入部 500 设置整面结构,可以进一步提高显示面板亮度均匀性。
本发明显示面板的第四实施例中,与上述第一实施例相比,其区别在于,所述 VDD 引入部 500 与所述薄膜晶体管的源漏极同层设置,共同属于第一源漏极金属层,而所述多条 VDD 信号线属于设于所述绝缘层上第二源漏极金属层。其他技术特征均与上述第一实施例相同,在此不再赘述。
本发明显示面板的第四实施例,通过 VDD 引入部 500 将驱动芯片 200 提供的 VDD 电源信号从中部显示区 702 引入,然后再由 VDD 信号线 400 从中部显示区 702 向两侧的下侧显示区 701 及上侧显示区 703 传递,使显示区域上部和下部的 VDD 压降基本保持一致,且 VDD 压降可减小为常规现有面板的一半不到,从而可显著提升面板的亮度均匀性。
综上所述,本发明的显示面板,包括显示区及非显示区,所述非显示区设有驱动芯片,所述显示区包括逐渐远离所述驱动芯片的下侧显示区、中部显示区及上侧显示区,所述显示面板包括衬底基板、设于衬底基板上的多个像素单元及电源信号结构,所述电源信号结构包括位于非显示区的与驱动芯片电性连接的 VDD 电源线、位于多个像素单元之间与每个像素单元电性连接的多条纵向的 VDD 信号线及电性连接 VDD 电源线及多条 VDD 信号线的 VDD 引入部,所述 VDD 引入部通过绝缘层设置的过孔与每条所述 VDD 信号线在中部显示区电性连接,从而将驱动芯片提供的 VDD 电源信号从中部显示区引入,然后由 VDD 信号线从中部显示区传递给每个像素单元,可以有效降低 OLED 面板内的 VDD 压降,从而显著提高 OLED 面板的亮度均匀性。
以上所述,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,可以根据本发明的技术方案和技术构思作出其他各种相应的改变和变形,而所有这些改变和变形都应属于本发明权利要求的保护范围。
