具体实施方式
为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本公开实施例的附图,对本公开实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。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,本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获 得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
除非另作定义,此处使用的技术术语或者科学术语应当为本公开所属领域内具有一般技能的人士所理解的通常意义。本公开中使用的“第一”、“第二”以及类似的词语并不表示任何顺序、数量或者重要性,而只是用来区分不同的组成部分。同样,“包括”或者“包含”等类似的词语意指出现该词前面的元件或者物件涵盖出现在该词后面列举的元件或者物件及其等同,而不排除其他元件或者物件。“连接”或者“相连”等类似的词语并非限定于物理的或者机械的连接,而是可以包括电性的连接,不管是直接的还是间接的。“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”等仅用于表示相对位置关系,当被描述对象的绝对位置改变后,则该相对位置关系也可能相应地改变。
目前,消费者对显示器件的尺寸和分辨率的要求不断增加、并因此对生产工艺的要求也不断增加。然而,目前在显示器件的生产制造过程中,由于生产工艺、制造技术等因素的影响,显示器件可能会出现波纹(Mura)。波纹例如是一种因显示器件的像素单元的显示偏差(例如,亮度偏差)导致的亮度不均匀现象,波纹包括波纹点(也即,单个像素单元的亮度偏差导致的波纹)和波纹块(也即,相邻的多个像素单元的亮度偏差导致的波纹)。例如,波纹包括亮点、暗点、亮块或暗块。在显示器件存在波纹的情况下,显示器件的画面质量将对应地降低,由此降低了用户的使用体验。
本公开的发明人在研究中注意到,亮度均匀性和残像是OLED(有机发光二级管)显示面板目前面临的两个主要问题。为了解决OLED显示面板的关于亮度均匀性和残像的技术问题,除了改善制作工艺之外,研究人员还提出了内部补偿技术和外部补偿技术。
本公开的发明人在研究中注意到,在仅采用内部补偿技术的情况下,亮度均匀性提升以及残像抑制的效果有限,可以通过例如外部补偿技术提升OLED显示面板的补偿效果。下面进行具体说明。
目前,中小尺寸的OLED显示面板中通常采用低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管(LTPS TFT),大尺寸的OLED显示面板中通常采用氧化物(例如氧化铟镓锌(IGZO))薄膜晶体管。这是因为LTPS TFT的迁移率更大,晶体管所占面积更小,因此,更适合于制作具有高PPI(Pixels Per Inch,每英寸像素数目)的显示面板;氧化物薄膜晶体管均匀性更好,制备工艺与一般的非晶硅薄膜晶体管(a-Si TFT)兼容,因此,更适合在生产线上生产。
对于中小尺寸显示面板中使用的OLED像素电路,由于形成TFT的多晶硅有源层的晶化工艺的限制,不同位置的LTPS TFT可能在诸如阈值电压、迁移率等电学参数上具有非均匀性,这种非均匀性会转化为OLED显示面板的像素单元之间的电流差异和亮度差异,并可能被人眼所感知(即波纹(Mura)现象)。
对于大尺寸显示面板中使用的OLED像素电路,尽管其采用的氧化物薄膜晶体管的工艺均匀性较好,但在氧化物薄膜晶体管持续处于加压和高温的情况下,其阈值电压可能会出现漂移。由于显示画面的不同图像像素对应的灰阶可能不同,显示面板的各个TFT的阈值漂移量可能不同,并且上述阈值漂移量的差异可能会导致在后续的显示周期中,实际显示的画面与预设的显示画面存在偏差,并因此导致残影现象,也就是通常所说的残像。
综上所述,在采用当前的制作工艺制作晶体管的情况下,LTPS TFT和氧化物薄膜晶体管存在均匀性问题和/或稳定性问题;并且,OLED具有亮度随着点亮时间的增加而逐渐衰减的特性。尽管难以通过工艺改进完全克服上述问题,然而可以通过各种补偿技术来应对。
目前,可通过内部补偿技术或外部补偿技术来应对OLED显示面板的亮度均匀性和残像问题。该内部补偿技术是指在像素内部利用TFT构建的补偿子电路进行补偿的方法。该外部补偿技术是指通过外部的驱动电路或外部设备感知像素的电学或光学特性,然后进行对待显示的数据信号进行补偿的方法。在显示面板为高分辨率(QHD(2560x1440)及以上级别)的显示面板的情况下,由于OLED的电路结构复杂且制作工艺的难度较高,如果只对显示面板做内部补偿,有时很难完全消除显示屏幕的波纹现象。因此,为了提高显示面板的良率和/或显示质量、抑制波纹现象,可以在内部补偿的基础上,通过外部补偿进一步地提高显示面板的良率和/或显示质量。
外部补偿技术(也即,Demura技术或波纹擦除技术)是一种用于消除或抑制显示器件的波纹,提升显示画面的亮度均匀性的技术。一种波纹擦除方法可以包括以下的步骤:首先,使得显示器件显示某个灰阶画面(例如,255灰阶画面);其次,使用例如工业级相机CCD(Charge Coupled Device)拍摄显示器件的屏幕,以获取显示器件中各个像素单元的实际亮度;然后,基于各个像素单元的实际亮度获取显示器件的波纹区域和非波纹区域;接着,通过迭代的方法对波纹区域的像素单元的灰阶电压进行调整和优化,以提升 显示面板的亮度均匀性和/或显示效果。
然而,本公开的发明人注意到,该波纹擦除方法补偿所需的时间较长且补偿效果存在一定限制,下面进行具体说明。
例如,可以通过以下的步骤对波纹区域的像素单元的灰阶电压进行调整和优化:首先,基于波纹区域中各个像素单元的实际亮度获取波纹区域的各个像素单元的伽马值;然后,获取各个像素单元预设的目标亮度;接着,计算为实现像素单元的预设的目标亮度而应当采用的补偿后的灰阶;第四,使得OLED显示面板显示上述通过计算得到的补偿后的灰阶(也即,将补偿后的灰阶提供给位于波纹区域的像素单元),使用CCD获取显示器件中各个像素单元在补偿后的实际亮度,并判断是否满足补偿效果(波纹的程度是否小于预设阈值)。在判断满足补偿效果的情况下,则结束计算过程;在不满足补偿效果的情况下,则使用显示器件中各个像素单元在补偿后的实际亮度重复以上的步骤,直至满足补偿效果或者达到最高的迭代次数。
上述波纹擦除方法通常需要多次迭代才能获取满足补偿效果的灰阶,但是在某些情况下,甚至多次迭代之后依然无法获取满足补偿效果的灰阶。因此,上述波纹擦除方法所需的补偿时间较长且补偿效果有限。
此外,本公开的发明人又注意到,在显示面板的像素单元的亮度越低的情况下,像素单元的亮度偏差变化的幅度越大(也即,波纹的变化幅度越大),这进一步地增加了上述波纹擦除方法所需的补偿时间,并进一步地降低了上述波纹擦除方法的补偿效果。
本公开的一些实施例提供了一种像素单元的显示调试方法、像素单元的补偿方法、像素单元的补偿参数获取方法、显示面板的显示调试方法、显示面板的显示调试装置、显示补偿装置、显示装置以及存储介质。该像素单元的显示调试方法包括:选择调试灰阶向量,在该步骤中,调试灰阶向量包括N+1个调试灰阶数据;分别获取像素单元在显示N+1个调试灰阶数据时的N+1个亮度数据;基于N+1个亮度数据获取像素单元的N阶补偿关系式,在该步骤中,N阶补偿关系式包括N+1个参数,N为大于等于2的整数。
在一些示例中,通过使得N阶补偿关系式为二阶补偿关系式或者二阶以上的补偿关系式,相比于采用一阶补偿关系式,可以提升像素单元以及包括该像素单元的显示面板和显示装置的补偿效果。
在一些示例中,通过在执行像素单元的显示调试方法或显示面板的显示 调试方法中选用优化后的调试灰阶向量,可以降低调试像素单元或显示面板所需的时间和运算量,由此使得可以应用二阶补偿关系式或者二阶以上的补偿关系式对像素单元或显示面板进行补偿。
下面通过几个示例对根据本公开的一些实施例提供的像素单元的显示调试方法、像素单元的补偿方法、像素单元的补偿参数获取方法、显示面板的显示调试方法、显示面板的显示调试装置、显示补偿装置、显示装置以及存储介质进行非限制性的说明,如下面所描述的,在不相互抵触的情况下这些具体示例中不同特征可以相互组合,从而得到新的示例,这些新的示例也都属于本公开保护的范围。
本公开的实施例的涉及光学补偿系统,该光学补偿系统的一个示例如图1所示。图1所示的硬件环境和结构只是示例性的而非限制性的;根据需要,硬件环境也可以具有其他组件和结构,并且例如可以包括图像处理集成器等。
例如,如图1所示,该光学补偿系统涉及被检测的OLED显示面板201和光学补偿设备202,该光学补偿设备202包括:摄像头2021、数据处理单元2022和控制单元2023,摄像头2021、数据处理单元2022和控制单元2023之间通过有线或无线方式进行信号传递(连接)。
OLED显示面板除了像素阵列之外可以包括数据解码电路、时序控制器(Tcon)、栅极驱动电路、数据驱动电路、存储装置(例如闪存等)等。数据解码电路接收显示输入信号并对其进行解码以得到显示数据信号;时序控制器输出时序信号以控制栅极驱动电路、数据驱动电路等同步工作,且可以对显示数据信号进行伽马处理,将处理后的显示数据信号输入到数据驱动电路以进行显示操作。例如,时序控制器在显示数据信号进行伽马处理处理时,还可以同时进行补偿处理,例如从存储装置中读出预存的像素补偿参数,并采用该像素补偿参数对显示数据信号进一步处理以得到补偿后的显示数据信号,在完成了伽马处理以及补偿处理之后,再将显示数据信号输出到数据驱动电路以用于显示操作。或者,显示面板也可以包括独立的伽马处理电路,其在时序控制器的控制下对显示数据信号进行伽马处理以及进行补偿处理等。
图2A是本公开的至少一个实施例提供的像素单元的显示调试方法的示例性流程图。例如,该像素单元例如为显示面板中存在显示偏差(例如,亮度偏差)的任一像素单元,该像素单元呈现的实际亮度偏离该像素单元的理 论亮度(或者目标亮度),例如该像素单元可以属于波纹点或波纹块。例如,上述显示面板可以为OLED显示面板。
如图2A所示,该像素单元的显示调试方法包括以下的步骤S110-步骤S130。
步骤S110:选择调试灰阶向量,其中,调试灰阶向量包括N+1个调试灰阶数据,N为大于等于2的整数。
步骤S120:分别获取像素单元在显示N+1个调试灰阶数据时的N+1个亮度数据。
步骤S130:基于N+1个亮度数据获取像素单元的N阶补偿关系式。
例如,步骤S110、步骤S120和步骤S130可以被顺次执行。
例如,可以在显示面板出厂前使用该像素单元的显示调试方法对显示面板中存在显示偏差的每个像素单元进行调试,并获取每个像素单元的N阶补偿关系式,该N阶补偿关系式可以保存在显示面板中,由此使得在显示面板出厂并交付给用户之后,用户在使用显示面板显示图像时,可以基于使用像素单元的显示调试方法获取的N阶补偿关系式,对提供给对应的像素单元的显示数据进行校正(例如,灰阶校正),由此可以提高像素单元的亮度准确度,提高应用包括该像素单元的显示面板的亮度均匀性和/或显示效果。
此处,灰阶是用于体现显示画面的亮度等级的参数,即用于体现显示面面的亮度等级(从最暗的亮度等级到最亮的亮度等级)。灰阶可以由灰阶数据的比特数决定,并且,灰阶可以决定显示画面的颜色的细腻程度。例如,在灰阶数据为6比特的情况下,则有64灰阶;在灰阶数据为8比特的情况下,则有256灰阶;在灰阶数据为10比特的情况下,则有1024灰阶。例如,上述调试灰阶数据的比特数可以根据实际应用设定,以使得像素单元和包括该显示单元的显示面板能够显示预定级数的灰度。
在一些示例中,通过使得N为大于等于2的整数,可以提升基于像素单元的显示调试方法获得的N阶补偿关系式对像素单元以及包括该像素单元的显示面板的补偿效果。
例如,N可以等于2,此种情况下,可以平衡应用该N阶补偿关系式对像素单元以及包括该像素单元的显示面板进行补偿的运算量以及补偿效果。例如,在N等于2的情况下,调试灰阶向量X包括3个调试灰阶数据,也即,X=[g1,g2,g3]。
例如,选择调试灰阶向量的具体方法可以根据实际应用需求进行选择,本公开的实施例对此不做具体限定。
在一个示例中,在执行像素单元的显示调试方法中选择的调试灰阶向量是优化后的调试灰阶向量(例如,最优的调试灰阶向量);此种情况下,可以通过在执行像素单元的显示调试方法中利用优化后的调试灰阶向量降低调试像素单元以及包括该像素单元的显示面板所需的时间和运算量,由此使得可以应用二阶补偿关系式或者二阶以上的补偿关系式对像素单元和显示面板进行补偿。例如,可以在执行像素单元的显示调试方法之前,利用像素单元的补偿参数获取方法确定优化后的调试灰阶向量,并将调试灰阶向量(例如,优化后的调试灰阶向量)存储在存储器中,由此可以在执行像素单元的显示调试方法中直接调用调试灰阶向量(例如,优化后的调试灰阶向量)。例如,获取优化后的调试灰阶向量的方法将在下面的像素单元的补偿参数获取方法的实施例中详述,在此不再赘述。
例如,可以通过对例如多个显示面板(大量的显示面板,例如,100个显示面板)进行测试,并利用像素单元的补偿参数获取方法确定调试灰阶向量,此种情况下,利用像素单元的补偿参数获取方法确定的调试灰阶向量(也即,在执行像素单元的显示调试方法中选择的调试灰阶向量)是优化后的调试灰阶向量(例如,最优的调试灰阶向量)。因此,在使用该优化后的调试灰阶向量执行像素单元的显示调试方法的情况下,可以更快的获取满足补偿需求的N阶补偿关系式,由此可以降低执行像素单元的显示调试方法所需的时间,提升像素单元的调试效率以及包括该像素单元的显示面板的调试效率。
在另一个示例中,在执行像素单元的显示调试方法中选择的调试灰阶向量还可以是初始调试灰阶向量(也即,未经优化的调试灰阶向量);此种情况下,在执行步骤S110之后且在执行步骤S120之前,像素单元的显示调试方法还可以包括下述的步骤S140。
步骤S140:基于初始调试灰阶向量获取优化的调试灰阶向量,并基于优化的调试灰阶向量执行步骤S120和步骤S130。
例如,可以利用像素单元的补偿参数获取方法基于初始调试灰阶向量(例如,作为像素单元的补偿参数获取方法中的测试灰阶向量)获取优化的调试灰阶向量,像素单元的补偿参数获取方法将在像素单元的补偿参数获取方法的实施例中详述,在此不再赘述。
例如,在步骤S110中,选择调试灰阶向量可以包括以下的步骤S111和步骤S112。例如,步骤S111和步骤S112可以顺次执行。
步骤S111:将像素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分从小到大的N+1个灰阶区。
步骤S112:从每个灰阶区选取一个灰阶值以形成调试灰阶向量。
例如,通过将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分从小到大的N+1个灰阶区,并且从每个灰阶区选取一个灰阶值以形成调试灰阶向量,可以在执行像素单元的补偿参数获取方法中加快优化调试灰阶向量的速度,由此可以更快的获取一个优化后的调试灰阶向量。
例如,将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分从小到大的N+1个灰阶区包括:将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分N+1个灰阶区,且使得第m个灰阶区中最大的灰阶值小于第m+1个灰阶区中最小的灰阶值,m为大于等于1小于等于N的整数。
例如,从小到大的N+1个灰阶区是指N+1个灰阶区中的灰阶值由小到大。例如,N等于2的情况下,可以将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分第一灰阶区、第二灰阶区和第三灰阶区,第一灰阶区中的所有灰阶值均小于第二灰阶区中的所有灰阶值,以及第二灰阶区中的所有灰阶值均小于第三灰阶区中的所有灰阶值。
例如,N+1个灰阶区的范围逐渐增大。例如,第m+1个灰阶区的范围大于第m个灰阶区的范围。例如,在素单元能够显示的灰阶范围为0-255灰阶(此处,0灰阶表示像素单元的亮度最小,255灰阶表示像素单元的亮度最大)的情况下,第一灰阶区的灰阶范围为0-31灰阶,第二灰阶区的灰阶范围为32-127灰阶,第三灰阶区的灰阶范围为128-255灰阶。例如,通过使得N+1个灰阶区的范围逐渐增大,可以进一步地提升调试灰阶向量的优化速度,也即,可以更快的获得一个优化后的调试灰阶向量,且利用该优化后的调试灰阶向量获取的N阶补偿关系式不仅对高亮度水平下的波纹具有良好的补偿效果,而且对低亮度水平下的波纹也具有良好的补偿效果。
例如,在步骤S112中,在第一灰阶区的灰阶范围为0-31灰阶,第二灰阶区的灰阶范围为32-127灰阶,第三灰阶区的灰阶范围为128-255灰阶的情况下,可以从第一灰阶区选择15作为调试灰阶数据(也即,使得g1=15),从第二灰阶区选择64作为调试灰阶数据(也即,使得g2=64),从第三灰阶区选择 200作为调试灰阶数据(也即,使得g3=200),由此可以获取调试灰阶向量X=[15,64,200]。
在一个示例中,通过步骤S112获取的调试灰阶数据可以直接用于执行步骤S120和步骤S130。在另一个示例中,通过步骤S112获取的调试灰阶数据(例如,作为像素单元的补偿参数获取方法中的测试灰阶向量)可以用于获取优化的调试灰阶向量,然后可以基于优化的调试灰阶向量执行步骤S120和步骤S130。
例如,在步骤S120中,可以通过光学方法获取N+1个亮度数据。例如,在像素单元(或包括该像素单元的显示面板)顺次显示上述N+1个调试灰阶数据的情况下,可以使用图像采集装置顺次拍摄像素单元,以获取像素单元在显示上述N+1个调试灰阶数据的情况下,像素单元的N+1的亮度数据。例如,在像素单元显示的调试灰阶数据为g1的情况下,图像采集装置可以拍摄像素单元并获取第一图像,然后可以基于第一图像获取像素单元在显示调试灰阶数据g1的情况下像素单元的亮度数据Lum_test_1;基于类似的方法,还可以获得像素单元在显示调试灰阶数据g2的情况下像素单元的亮度数据Lum_test_2,以及像素单元在显示调试灰阶数据g3的情况下像素单元的亮度数据Lum_test_3。
例如,该图像采集装置可以具有较高的精度,以提升亮度数据的准确度,降低获取N阶补偿关系式的时间以及采用该N阶补偿关系式进行补偿的像素单元和显示面板的补偿效果。例如,该图像采集装置还可以具有较高的分辨率,以使得可以对小尺寸的像素单元或者高分辨率的显示面板中的像素单元应用上述的像素单元的显示调试方法。
例如,该图像采集装置可以为工业级摄像头(或相机)。例如,该图像采集装置可以实现为CCD(电荷耦合器件)型摄像头(或相机)、CMOS(互补金属氧化物半导体)型摄像头(或相机)或者其它适用类型的摄像头(或相机)。
例如,在步骤S130中,N阶补偿关系式具有一个未知数,N+1参数,且未知数项的最高次数是N。
例如,在步骤S130中,基于N+1个亮度数据获取像素单元的N阶补偿关系式包括以下的步骤S131、步骤S132和步骤S133。
步骤S131:基于N+1个亮度数据分别获取N+1个等效灰阶数据。
步骤S132:基于N+1个亮度数据和N+1个调试灰阶数据分别获取N+1个校正后的灰阶数据。
步骤S133:基于N+1个等效灰阶数据和N+1个校正后的灰阶数据确定N+1个参数的值,由此确定N阶补偿关系式。
例如,步骤S131、步骤S132和步骤S133可以被顺次执行。又例如,可以顺次执行步骤S132、步骤S131和步骤S133。再例如,可以顺次执行步骤S131+步骤S132(也即,同时执行步骤S131+步骤S132)和步骤S133。
例如,在步骤S131中,可以利用以下的表达式并基于N+1个亮度数据分别获取N+1个等效灰阶数据:

例如,在步骤S132中,基于N+1个亮度数据和N+1个调试灰阶数据分别获取N+1个校正后的灰阶数据包括以下的步骤S1321-步骤S1323。
步骤S1321:基于N+1个调试灰阶数据获取N+1个理论亮度数据。
步骤S1322:基于N+1个亮度数据和N+1个理论亮度数据确定N+1个比例系数数据。

此处,g为N+1个调试灰阶数据之一,例如,调试灰阶数据可以为g1、 g2或者g3;G_max为像素单元能够显示的最大灰阶,例如,在像素单元能够显示的灰阶范围为0-255灰阶的情况下,G_max=255;Lum_theo为N+1个理论亮度数据之一,例如,Lum_theo可以为对应于调试灰阶数据g1的理论亮度数据Lum_theo_1,对应于调试灰阶数据g2的理论亮度数据Lum_theo_2以及对应于调试灰阶数据g3的理论亮度数据Lum_theo_3;Lum_max为像素单元在像素单元能够显示的最大灰阶下的亮度,例如,Lum_max可以为像素单元在255灰阶下的亮度(例如,理论亮度)。
例如,在步骤S1322中,可以基于以下的表达式并基于N+1个亮度数据和N+1个理论亮度数据确定N+1个比例系数数据:

此处,Ra为N+1个比例系数数据之一,例如,Ra可以为基于理论亮度数据Lum_theo_1和亮度数据Lum_test_1获得的比例系数数据Ra_1,基于理论亮度数据Lum_theo_2和亮度数据Lum_test_2获得的比例系数数据Ra_2,或者基于理论亮度数据Lum_theo_3和亮度数据Lum_test_3获得的比例系数数据Ra_3。
例如,在步骤S1323中,可以利用以下的表达式并基于N+1个比例系数数据和N+1个调试灰阶数据获取N+1个校正后的灰阶数据:
Figure PCTCN2020076978-appb-000008
此处,G_corre为N+1个校正后的灰阶数据之一,例如,G_corre可以为基于比例系数数据Ra_1和调试灰阶数据g1获取的校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_1,基于比例系数数据Ra_2和调试灰阶数据g2获取的校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_2,或者基于比例系数数据Ra_3和调试灰阶数据g3获取的校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_3。
例如,在步骤S133中,可以基于N+1个等效灰阶数据和N+1个校正后的灰阶数据确定N+1个参数的值(例如,用于构建N阶补偿关系式的N+1个参数的值),由此确定N阶补偿关系式。
下面以N等于2为例对确定N+1个参数的值的具体方法做示例性说明。
例如,在N等于2的情况下,N阶补偿关系式为以下的表达式(1):
y=a×x 2+b×x+c,          (1)
此处,参数a、b和c为N+1个参数。
例如,基于N+1个等效灰阶数据和N+1个校正后的灰阶数据确定N阶补偿关系式包括以下的步骤S1331和步骤S1332。例如,步骤S1331和步骤S1332可以被顺次执行。
步骤S1331:使得表达式(1)中的x分别等于N+1个等效灰阶数据,且使得表达式(1)中的y分别等于对应的N+1个校正后的灰阶数据,由此得到N+1个方程式。
步骤S1332:基于N+1个方程式确定N+1个参数的值(也即,参数a、参数b和参数c)。
例如,在步骤S1331中,可以获得以下的3个方程式,这3个方程式构成一个未知数为a、b和c的三元一次方程组:
G_corre_1=a×(G_eff_1) 2+b×G_eff_1+c
G_corre_2=a×(G_eff_2) 2+b×G_eff_2+c。
G_corre_3=a×(G_eff_3) 2+b×G_eff_3+c
例如,在步骤S1332中,可以通过求解上述三元一次方程组可以确定参数a、参数b和参数c。
例如,可以将上述的N阶补偿关系式(包括参数a、参数b和参数c)存储在存储器(例如,包括该像素单元的显示面板或显示装置的存储器,例如闪存)中,由此在像素单元进行显示中,可以使用上述的N阶补偿关系式对像素单元的待显示的数据信号进行补偿或校正(例如,灰阶校正),以获取补偿后的数据信号;然后,可以使用补偿后的数据信号(或校正后的数据信号)驱动像素单元进行显示。由此可以提高应用了上述像素单元的显示调试方法的像素单元的亮度准确度,提高应用了上述像素单元的显示调试方法的显示面板的亮度均匀性和/或显示效果。

步骤S210:选择测试灰阶向量。
例如,在步骤S210中,测试灰阶向量包括N+1个测试灰阶数据,且选择 测试灰阶向量可以包括以下的步骤S211和步骤S212。
步骤S211:将像素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分从小到大的N+1个灰阶区。
步骤S212:从每个灰阶区选取一个灰阶值以形成测试灰阶向量。
例如,通过将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围划分从小到大的N+1个灰阶区,并且从每个灰阶区选取一个灰阶值(作为一个测试灰阶数据值)以形成测试灰阶向量,可以加快测试灰阶向量的优化速度,并可以更快的获取优化后的调试灰阶向量。
在一个示范性示例中,N+1个灰阶区的范围逐渐增大。例如,在将素单元能够显示的灰阶范围为0-255灰阶(0灰阶表示像素单元的亮度最小,255灰阶表示像素单元的亮度最大)的情况下,第一灰阶区的灰阶范围为0-31灰阶,第二灰阶区的灰阶范围为32-127灰阶,第三灰阶区的灰阶范围为128-255灰阶。例如,通过使得N+1个灰阶区的范围逐渐增大,可以更快的获得优化后的调试灰阶向量,且基于该优化后的调试灰阶向量获得的N阶补偿关系式不仅对高亮度水平下的波纹具有良好的补偿效果,而且对低亮度水平下的波纹具有良好的补偿效果。
步骤S220:基于测试灰阶向量获取像素单元的N阶补偿关系式。
例如,在步骤S220中,基于测试灰阶向量获取N阶补偿关系式包括以下的步骤S221-步骤S224。
步骤S221:分别获取像素单元在显示N+1个测试灰阶数据时的N+1个亮度数据。
步骤S222:基于N+1个亮度数据分别获取N+1个等效灰阶数据。
步骤S223:基于N+1个亮度数据和N+1个测试灰阶数据分别获取N+1个校正后的灰阶数据。
步骤S224:基于N+1个等效灰阶数据和N+1个校正后的灰阶数据确定N+1个参数的值,由此确定N阶补偿关系式。
例如,步骤S221、步骤S222、步骤S223和步骤S224的具体实施方式和技术效果可分别参见步骤S120、步骤S131、步骤S132和步骤S133,在此不再赘述。
例如,步骤S221、步骤S222、步骤S223和步骤S224可以顺次执行;又例如,步骤S222、步骤S221、步骤S223和步骤S224可以顺次执行。再例如, 步骤S221、步骤S223、步骤S222和步骤S224可以顺次执行。
步骤S230:基于N阶补偿关系式对像素单元的灰阶进行校正,并评估N阶补偿关系式的校正效果。
例如,可以针对单个显示面板执行步骤S230;又例如,还可以针对多个显示面板执行步骤S230,以提升优化后的测试灰阶数据(或者,优化后的调试灰阶数据)的普适性。例如,该多个显示面板具有相同的产品参数(例如,尺寸、物理分辨率等),可以属于同一批次或属于不同的批次。
例如,在步骤S230中,基于N阶补偿关系式对像素单元的灰阶进行校正,并评估N阶补偿关系式的校正效果包括以下的步骤S231-步骤S234。例如,步骤S231、步骤S232、步骤S233和步骤S234可以被顺次执行。
步骤S231:使用N阶补偿关系式对像素单元的待显示的数据信号进行补偿,以获取补偿后的数据信号。
步骤S232:使用补偿后的数据信号驱动像素单元进行显示。
步骤S233:获得像素单元在显示补偿后的数据信号时的当前亮度数据(例如,也可以被称为像素单元的当前亮度数据)。在步骤S233中,例如,可以使用图像采集装置拍摄像素单元来获得像素单元的当前亮度数据;又例如,还可以通过数据接收的方式获得像素单元的当前亮度数据。
步骤S234:对比像素单元的当前亮度数据与像素单元的理论亮度数据,以判定N阶补偿关系式的校正效果是否满足校正需求。
例如,在步骤S234中,可以在像素单元的当前亮度数据与像素单元的理论亮度数据的差值小于亮度阈值的情况下,判定校正效果满足校正需求;在像素单元的当前亮度数据与像素单元的理论亮度数据的差值大于等于亮度阈值的情况下,判定校正效果不满足校正需求。例如,亮度阈值可以根据用户需求,行业标准或者补偿前后的差异情况进行设定,本公开的实施例对此不做具体限定。例如,亮度阈值可以为理论亮度数据的1%-10%(例如,5%、10%)或其它适用的数值。
步骤S240:在校正效果满足校正需求的情况下,将测试灰阶向量作为调试灰阶向量;在校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,调整测试灰阶向量直至基于测试灰阶向量获取的N阶补偿关系式使得对像素单元的灰阶校正的校正效果满足校正需求。
图3是本公开的至少一个实施例提供的像素单元的补偿参数获取方法的 另一种示例性流程图。
如图3所示,在判定校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,可以顺次执行以下的步骤。首先,基于步骤S210所述的方法选择(例如,随机选择或根据经验设定)一个新的测试灰阶向量。其次,基于该新的测试灰阶向量执行步骤S220-步骤S230,以获取新的N阶补偿关系式,并评估新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果,也即,判定上述新的N阶补偿关系式是否满足校正需求。在判定上述新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果满足校正需求的情况下,可以将新的测试灰阶向量作为调试灰阶向量,并结束测试灰阶向量的优化过程以及像素单元的补偿参数获取方法;在校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,并进一步调整测试灰阶向量直至基于测试灰阶向量获取的N阶补偿关系式使得对像素单元的灰阶校正的校正效果满足校正需求。
在一个示范性的示例中,在判定校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,还可以判定新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果是否优于截止目前最优的补偿效果,如果新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果优于截止目前最优的补偿效果,则记录上述新的测试灰阶向量,由此可以保证随机寻优算法的渐进性,从而使得可以逐步逼近最优解(最优的测试灰阶向量或调试灰阶向量)。
在另一个示范性的示例中,在判定校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,还可以判定新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果是否优于截止目前次优的补偿效果(次优的补偿效果为除最优的补偿效果之外的最优的补偿效果),如果新的N阶补偿关系式的校正效果优于截止目前次优的补偿效果,则记录上述新的测试灰阶向量,此种情况下,可以记录更多的具有良好补偿效果的测试灰阶向量。

步骤S314:基于N+1个亮度矩阵、N+1个理论亮度矩阵以及波纹判定阈值确定显示面板中存在显示偏差的像素单元。
例如,步骤S311-步骤S314可以被顺次执行。又例如,步骤S311、步骤S312+步骤S313(步骤S312和步骤S313同时执行)和步骤S314可以被顺次执行。
例如,在步骤S311中,调试灰阶向量包括N+1个调试灰阶数据。N为大于等于2的整数。
在一个示范性的示例中,在步骤S312中,可以通过光学方法获取N+1个亮度矩阵。首先,使得显示面板显示灰阶数据为g1,并使用图像采集装置对显示面板进行拍照,以记录下显示面板的亮度矩阵LUM_test_1;然后,使得显示面板显示灰阶数据为g2,并使用图像采集装置对显示面板进行拍照,以记录下显示面板的亮度矩阵LUM_test_2;接着,使得显示面板显示灰阶数据为g3,并使用图像采集装置对显示面板进行拍照,以记录下显示面板的亮度矩阵LUM_test_3。例如,LUM_test为N+1个亮度矩阵之一,LUM_test可以为亮度矩阵LUM_test_1、亮度矩阵LUM_test_2或亮度矩阵LUM_test_3。例如,在显示面板包括m行n列像素单元的情况下,亮度矩阵LUM_test包括m行n列,也即,亮度矩阵LUM_test的尺寸(或维度)为m×n。
在另一个示范性的示例中,还可以通过接收或读取的方式获取显示面板的各个像素单元在显示N+1个调试灰阶数据时的N+1个亮度矩阵。
在步骤S313中:可以利用以下的表达式并基于N+1个调试灰阶数据获取N+1个理论亮度矩阵:
Figure PCTCN2020076978-appb-000009
此处,g为N+1个调试灰阶数据之一,例如,调试灰阶数据可以为g1、g2或者g3;G_max为像素单元能够显示的最大灰阶,例如,在像素单元能够 显示的灰阶范围为0-255灰阶的情况下,G_max=255;LUM_theo为N+1个理论亮度矩阵之一,例如,LUM_theo可以为对应于调试灰阶数据g1的理论亮度矩阵LUM_theo_1,对应于调试灰阶数据g2的理论亮度数据LUM_theo_2或者对应于调试灰阶数据g3的理论亮度数据LUM_theo_3。例如,LUM_max可以为显示面板在显示面板能够显示的最大灰阶(例如,255灰阶)下的亮度矩阵(例如,理论亮度矩阵)。例如,在显示面板包括m行n列像素单元的情况下,矩阵LUM_max的尺寸为m×n。
在步骤S314中,在位于显示面板的第i行第j列的像素单元同时满足以下的波纹判定表达式的情况下,可以判定该像素单元为显示面板中存在显示偏差的像素单元:
|LUM_test_1(i,j)/LUM_theo_1(i,j)|≥Lth1
|LUM_test_2(i,j)/LUM_theo_2(i,j)|≥Lth2。
|LUM_test_3(i,j)/LUM_theo_3(i,j)|≥Lth3
此处,LUM_test_1(i,j)、LUM_test_2(i,j)和LUM_test_3(i,j)分别为位于显示面板的第i行第j列的像素单元在显示灰阶数据g1、g2和g3情况下的亮度数据;LUM_theo_1(i,j)、LUM_theo_2(i,j)和LUM_theo_3(i,j)分别为位于显示面板的第i行第j列的像素单元对应于调试灰阶数据g1、g2和g3的理论亮度数据;Lth1、Lth2和Lth3分别为对应于调试灰阶数据g1、g2和g3的波纹判定阈值。
在一个示例中,波纹判定阈值Lth1、Lth2和Lth3可以彼此相等(例如,均等于Lth)。例如,波纹判定阈值Lth1、Lth2和Lth3可以根据用户对波纹的容忍度进行设定。例如,在用户对波纹的容忍度较低的情况下,可以使得波纹判定阈值较小(0.001);在用户对波纹的容忍度较高的情况下,可以使得波纹判定阈值较大(0.01)。又例如,对于不同颜色的像素单元,可以设定不同的波纹判定阈值Lth1、Lth2和Lth3。
在另一个示例中,还可以使得Lth1<Lth2<Lth3,此种情况下,还可以使得显示面板在低亮度水平下的波纹较弱,由此可以使得应用了本公开的至少一个实施例提供的显示面板的显示调试方法显示面板对低亮度水平下的波纹具有良好的补偿效果。
例如,可以使用上述的波纹判定表达式判定显示面板的任一像素单元是否为存在显示偏差的像素单元。例如,为减小运算量以及节省运算时间,可以利用矩阵运算同时获取显示面板中存在显示偏差的像素单元。例如,可以 通过获取以下矩阵运算表达式中的非零元素在矩阵中的位置确定显示面板中存在显示偏差的像素单元:
|LUM_test_1./LUM_theo_1|≥L_TH。
例如,在确定显示面板中存在显示偏差的像素单元(所有存在显示偏差的像素单元)之后,可以利用步骤S320针对存在显示偏差的像素单元的每个获取N阶补偿关系式;在针对存在显示偏差的像素单元的每个获取N阶补偿关系式之后,则可完成的显示面板的显示调试方法。
例如,在针对存在显示偏差的像素单元的每个应用本公开的至少一个实施例提供的像素单元的显示调试方法中,可以省略一些步骤,并可以利用步骤S310中的相关子步骤获取被省略的步骤可以获取的信息。例如,可以无需执行步骤S110和步骤S120,而是利用步骤S311和步骤S312获取调试灰阶向量和像素单元在显示N+1个调试灰阶数据时的N+1个亮度数据。

例如,在步骤S473中,可以基于N+1个波纹区等效灰阶矩阵和N+1个校正后的波纹区灰阶矩阵确定每个存在显示偏差的像素单元的N+1个参数的值,由此可以确定显示面板中每个存在显示偏差的像素单元的N阶补偿关系式。
下面以N等于2为例对确定显示面板中每个存在显示偏差的像素单元的N+1个参数的值的具体方法做示例性说明。
例如,在N等于2的情况下,显示面板中每个存在显示偏差的像素单元的N阶补偿关系式为以下的表达式:

例如,可以将上述的N阶补偿关系式(包括参数矩阵a_mura、b_mura和c_mura。)存储在存储器(例如,显示面板或显示装置的存储器)中,由此在显示面板进行显示中,可以使用上述的N阶补偿关系式对显示面板的待显示的数据信号(提供给显示面板的存在显示偏差的像素单元的待显示的数据信号)进行补偿或校正(例如,灰阶校正),以获取补偿后的数据信号;然后可以使用补偿后的数据信号(或校正后的数据信号)驱动显示面板的存在显示偏差的像素单元进行显示,并使用未经补偿的数据信号驱动显示面板的不存在显示偏差的像素单元进行显示。由此可以提高应用了上述显示面板的显示调试方法的显示面板的亮度均匀性和/或显示效果。
例如,在步骤S420中选取的调试灰阶向量X=[g1,g2,g3]并非优化后的调试灰阶向量(例如,最优的调试灰阶向量)的情况下,该显示面板的显示 调试方法的一个示例还包括以下的步骤S480。

在执行步骤S480之后,可以在校正效果满足校正需求的情况下,记录显示面板的每个存在显示偏差的像素单元的N阶补偿关系式;在校正效果不满足校正需求的情况下,调整调试灰阶向量,并再次执行步骤S420-步骤S480,直至使得灰阶校正的校正效果满足校正需求。
在一个示范性示例中,步骤S410-步骤S470可以顺次执行。在另一个示范性示例中,步骤S440还可以在步骤S430之后执行。
下面以显示面板的像素单元A存在显示偏差且γ=2.2为例做具体说明。
例如,在像素单元A显示调试灰阶数据g1(也即,显示26灰阶画面)时,基于CCD拍摄的图像可以获得像素单元A的对应于调试灰阶数据g1的亮度数据Lum_test_1=18尼特,由此可以得到对应于调试灰阶数据g1和亮度数据Lum_test_1的等效灰阶数据G_eff_1=23。例如,对应于调试灰阶数据g1的理论亮度数据Lum_theo_1=20尼特。
例如,基于理论亮度数据Lum_theo_1和亮度数据Lum_test_1获得的比例系数数据Ra_1:
Ra_1=Lum_theo_1/Lum_test_1。
例如,利用以下的表达式,并基于比例系数数据Ra_1、G_max、g1和γ可以获得校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_1:

例如,基于类似的方法可以获得调试灰阶数据g2(也即,显示108灰阶画面)对应的等效灰阶数据G_eff_2和校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_2分别为99和120,并且可以获得调试灰阶数据g3(也即,显示207灰阶画面)对应的等效灰阶数据G_eff_3和校正后的灰阶数据G_corre_3分别为189和234。
例如,可以基于G_eff_1(23)、G_corre_1(29)、G_eff_2(99)、G_corre_2(120)、G_eff_3(189)和G_corre_3(234)并利用以下的表达式获取对应于像素单元A参数a_A、b_A和c_A:
G_corre_1=a_A×(G_eff_1) 2+b_A×G_eff_1+c_A
G_corre_2=a_A×(G_eff_2) 2+b_A×G_eff_2+c_A。
G_corre_3=a_A×(G_eff_3) 2+b_A×G_eff_3+c_A
例如,通过求解三元二次方程可以确定参数a_A=0.000417,参数b_A=1.15和参数c_A=2.41,因此,可以得到像素单元A的N阶补偿关系式为以下的表达式:
y=0.000417x 2+1.15x+2.41。
例如,利用类似的方法,可以获得显示面板中其它存在显示偏差的像素单元的N阶补偿关系式,在此不再赘述。
