具体实施方式
本申请实施例提供一种电子设备及其显示装置,电子设备可包括显示装置和摄像头,摄像头的镜 头相对显示装置设置,即摄像头获取透过该显示装置的外界光信号进行成像。可以理解的是,常规显示装置的透光率较低,摄像头透过显示装置成像的效果不佳。为此,本申请实施例可以将显示装置分区设置,如将显示装置对应摄像头部分的透光率设置大于显示装置其他位置的透光率,可以改善摄像头成像效果。下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。
本申请实施例提供的电子设备可以是手机、平板电脑等移动终端设备,还可以是游戏设备、增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)设备、虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)设备、车载电脑、笔记本电脑、数据存储装置、音频播放装置、视频播放装置、可穿戴设备等具有显示装置的设备,其中可穿戴设备可以是智能手环、智能眼镜等。
请参阅图1,图1为本申请实施例提供的电子设备的第一种结构示意图。图1示出了电子设备为手机的示例,其中,显示装置20包括第一显示区220和第二显示区240,第二显示区240的透光率大于第一显示区220的透光率。电子设备10内设有摄像头60,摄像头60的镜头朝向第二显示区240设置,摄像头60用于获取透过第二显示区240的外界光信号进行成像。也可以理解为,摄像头60设置在显示装置20第二显示区240下方,摄像头60用于获取透过显示装置20第二显示区240的外界光信号,并根据获取的外界光信号成像。显示装置20的显示区域完整,提高了显示装置20的屏占比。摄像头60可以作为电子设备的前置摄像头,摄像头60可以用于透过显示装置20第二显示区240获取用户的自拍照等图像。
为了更加全面的理解本申请实施例的显示装置。下面对显示装置进行详细说明。
请参阅图2,图2为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第一种结构示意图。本申请实施例中的显示装置20可以包括邻接的第一显示区220和第二显示区240。第一显示区220和第二显示区240都可以用于显示文字或图像,第一显示区220和第二显示区240可以共同显示同一图像,例如,第一显示区220显示预设图像的一部分,第二显示区240显示预设图像剩下的部分。第一显示区220和第二显示区240也可以显示不同的图像,例如,第一显示区220显示预设图像,第二显示区240显示任务栏图像。第一显示区220和第二显示区240都可以显示内容,显示区域完整,显示装置20的屏占比高,第一显示区220可以围绕第二显示区240,第二显示区240周缘可以都与第一显示区220邻接,即第二显示区240位于第一显示区220中间。第一显示区220也可以部分围绕透第二显示区240,第二显示区240的部分边缘与第一显示区220邻接,例如,第二显示区240位于显示装置20的边角位置或位于显示装置20的顶端中间。
请参阅图3至图5,图3为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第一种部分结构示意图,图4为图3所示显示装置的Z1部分的放大示意图,图5为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的一第一像素集合和一第一驱动电路的结构示意图。第一显示区220包括阵列设置的多个第一像素226,第一显示区220还可以包括多个第六驱动单元,一个第六驱动单元驱动一个第一像素226。例如,第一显示区220包括M个第一像素226以及M个第六驱动单元。
第二显示区240包括多个规则的第一像素集合2422,每一个第一像素集合2422包括多个第二像素246,第一像素集合2422内所有的第二像素246共用一个第一驱动单元248。第一像素集合2422内的多个第二像素可以并联连接,从而共用一个第一驱动单元。第一像素集合2422内的多个第二像素也可以串联连接,从而共用一个第一驱动单元。需要说明的是,并联连接不会改变第一驱动单元的驱动电压,并联连接形成的第一像素集合中第二像素的数量可以多于串联连接形成的第一像素集合。第二像素集合具有 和第一像素集合相同的连接方式。
第二显示区240包括多个规则的第一像素集合2422,每一个第一像素集合2422包括多个相互并联连接的第二像素246,第一像素集合2422内所有的第二像素246共用一个第一驱动单元248。
每一个第一驱动单元248与一个第一像素集合2422电性连接,每一个第一驱动单元248用于驱动与其电性连接的一个第一像素集合2422中所有的第二像素246。第二显示区240的多个第二像素246共用一个第一驱动单元248,因此用于驱动第二显示区240的第一驱动单元248的数量可以比第一像素226的数量少。例如,第二显示区240包括N个第一像素集合2422,每个第一像素集合2422包括4个第二像素246,一个第一像素集合2422对应一个第一驱动单元248,第二显示区240包括4N个第二像素246和N个第一驱动单元248。相比于第一显示区220,设置于第二显示区240的第一驱动单元248和第二像素246的比例更小,第二显示区240的第一驱动单元248的分布密度小于第一显示区220第六驱动单元228的分布密度,而第一驱动单元248和第六驱动单元都包括不透光的元件(如薄膜晶体管TFT),可以使得第二显示区240包含的不透光的元件的数量相比于第一显示区220更少,使得第二显示区240的透光率可以远大于第一显示区220。
第二显示区240的形状和尺寸可以根据摄像头设置,其与第一显示区220的边缘区域需要特殊处理。为了提高显示装置的显示效果,第二显示区240的尺寸越小越好,而第二显示区240又需要满足摄像头的需求,因此第二显示区240需要对应摄像头的镜头设置。例如,第二显示区240可以为圆形,第二显示区240的尺寸略大于摄像头的镜头,并完全覆盖摄像头的镜头,也可以理解为镜头在显示装置的正投影在第二显示区240内。圆形的第二显示区240与第一显示区220邻接的位置包括弧形结构,不利于第二显示区240的多个第二像素划分到第一像素集合。第二显示区240还可以为椭圆形、半圆形、圆角矩形等规则形状,其边缘包括弧形结构。第二显示区240还可以为正多边形等规则形状,如正六边形等形状,其边缘包括类似弯折结构的弧形结构。当然第二显示区还可以为边缘包括弧形结构的不规则形状。
第二显示区240内规则的第一像素集合2422包括多个第二像素246,第一像素集合内的多个第二像素246可以阵列排列。例如,第一像素集合内的第二像素246呈2行排列,每一行2个第二像素246。第二显示区240内的多个第二像素246可以全部划分到不同的像素集合中,但第二显示区240的大小和形状需要根据摄像头设置,第二显示区240与第一显示区220邻接的边缘包括弧形结构,第二显示区240与第一显示区220邻接的部分第二像素246可能不在完整阵列排列的第一像素集合中,若该部分第二像素246不显示,则第二显示区240与第一显示区220之间具有不显示的黑点(像素),第二显示区240与第一显示区220过渡不均匀。因此,为了第二显示区240与第一显示区220之间过渡均匀,需要将该部分第二像素246也驱动显示。
具体的,第二显示区240可以包括多个规则的第一像素集合2422和至少一个不规则的第二像素集合2424。第一像素集合2422内的多个第二像素246按规则的形状排列,如2行2列排列、3行3列排列、2行3列排列、3行2列排列、4行4列排列等。不规则的第二像素集合2424包括的第二像素246的数量比第一像素集合2422少,也可以理解为,第二显示区240的多个第二像素246先划分多个第一像素集合2422,剩余的不足以划分形成规则的第一像素集合2422,剩余的第二像素246相邻第二显示区240边缘。剩余的第二像素246仍然按原先的划分规则划分,超出第二显示区240的放弃,仅将剩余的部分并联形成第二像素 集合2424。第二像素集合2424为第二显示区240边缘不在第一像素集合2422中的第二像素246的集合。例如,第一像素集合2422为2行2列排列,在第k行、k+1行,第二显示区240的边缘在第k行的第i列有一个第二像素246,在第k+1行的第i列、i+1列各有一个第二像素246,这3个第二像素246并联连接形成一个不规则的第二像素集合2424,且每行的第二像素246数量不同。需要说明的是,第二像素集合2424中第二像素246的数量和排布根据第二显示区边缘而定,不同的第二像素集合2424包括的第二像素246的数量和排布也可以不同。第二像素集合2424可以仅包括1个像素246,也可以包括多个第二像素246。需要说明的是,第一数量可以为一固定的数值,如9或6等,第二数量可以为小于第一数量且不固定的数值。其中,不规则的第二像素集合包括不规则边缘,至少一个第二像素集合的不规则边缘与第二显示区的弧形结构共形。也可以理解为,不规则的第二像素集合包括不规则边缘形成第二显示区的弧形结构。
若第二显示区240的第二像素246与第一显示区220的第一像素物理结构相同,通过不规则的第二像素集合2424过渡,可以形成匀滑的过渡。尤其是第二显示区240相邻第一显示区220的边缘包括弧形结构时,可以避免直线过渡的突兀感和锯齿状显示的破坏感。还可以对第二像素集合2424设置对应的显示匀滑算法,对第二像素集合2424的像素246进行显示匀滑过渡处理,实现平滑过渡。另外,还可以对第一显示区220设置与第二像素246邻接的部分设置对应的算法,对第一显示区220相邻第二显示区240的部分进行显示匀滑过渡处理,实现平滑过渡。其中,第二显示区240的第二像素246与第一显示区220的第一像素物理结构相同,可以理解为第一显示区220的第一像素和第二显示区240的第二像素的尺寸大小、分布密度、排列方式均相同。
需要说明的是,需要驱动的像素的体积越大,其需要的驱动能力也需要越大。另外因为像素在显示装置中厚度是固定的,像素的面积越大,其需要的驱动能力也越大。规则的第一像素集合2422包括的第二像素246数量是固定的,其对应的驱动能力也是固定的。而不规则的第二像素集合2424包括的第二像素246数量不是固定的,第二像素集合2424包括的第二像素数量可以为1个、2个、3个、4个等,包括的第二像素246数量不同对应的驱动能力也不同。驱动所有的第二像素集合2424的第二驱动单元的驱动电路可以是相同的,例如,驱动所有第二像素集合2424的第二驱动单元可以为7T1C、5T1C或2T1C等中的一种。第二驱动单元的驱动电路一样,而驱动能力确要不同,可以通过第二驱动单元中单个元件(如薄膜晶体管)的尺寸来实现。薄膜晶体管的尺寸越大,其驱动能力也越大。即,与第二像素集合2424电性连接的第二驱动单元中薄膜晶体管的尺寸与第二像素集合2424中第二像素246的数量正相关。也可以理解为,第二像素集合2424中第二像素246的数量越多,与其电性连接的第二驱动单元的薄膜晶体管的尺寸也越大。
需要说明的是,驱动第一像素集合2422的第一驱动单元248可以与驱动第二像素集合2424的第二驱动单元具有相同的驱动电路。驱动第一像素集合2422的第一驱动单元248也可以与驱动第二像素集合2424的第二驱动单元具有不相同的驱动电路。例如,驱动第一像素集合2422的第一驱动单元为5T1C,驱动第二像素集合2424的第二驱动单元为2T1C。
为了进一步提高第二显示区的透光率,可以将第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元设置在除第二显示区以外的其他区域。具体的请参阅图6和图7,图6为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第二种结构示意图,图7为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第二种部分结构示意图。第一显示区220可以包括第三显示区260。 第三显示区260邻接第二显示区240,也可以理解为第一显示区220中相邻第二显示区240的部分区域设为第三显示区260。具体的,第三显示区260可以完全包围第二显示区240,第三显示区260也可以部分包围第二显示区240,如第三显示区260设置在第二显示区240的两侧等。
请结合图8和图9,图8为图7所示显示装置的Z2部分的放大示意图,图9为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第三显示区中像素和驱动单元的结构示意图。驱动第二显示区240的第二像素246的多个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元除了可以设置于第二显示区240以外,还可以设置于第三显示区260。摄像头不需要通过第三显示区260获取外界光信号,多个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元设置在第三显示区260,第二显示区240内不设置第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,第二显示区240内不设置不透光的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,第二显示区240的透光率可以远大于第一显示区220和第三显示区260,同时减少因为第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元带来的其他问题,例如周期性排列的第一驱动单元248对摄像头成像造成的衍射问题,第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元反射、折射对摄像头成像造成的杂光问题。
可以理解的,显示装置20第一显示区220的第一像素246的分布密度越大,单位面积内的像素246越多,其分辨率也越高,提供的显示效果也越好,考虑到显示装置20的产品工艺,第一显示区220中第一像素226和驱动第一像素226的第六驱动单元228的尺寸相对应。多个第六驱动单元228还需要多条信号线与显示装置20的驱动芯片连接,驱动芯片通过多条信号线控制每一个第六驱动单元228,多条信号线布设在多个第六驱动单元228之间,第一像素226之间具有间隔空间,间隔空间与信号线对应设置。信号线具有一定的线宽,其需要满足阻抗需求和产品工艺。例如,第一显示区220的第一像素密度可以达到400ppi以上,第一显示区220的第一像素226和第六驱动单元228的尺寸大致相等,第六驱动单元228对应设置在第一像素226下方,多条信号线布设在多个第六驱动单元228之间,并对应设置在第一像素226之间的间隔空间下方。第六驱动单元228和与其连接的信号线基本覆盖一整层空间,很难再容纳其他元件。第三显示区260的多个第一像素226通过多个第一像素226并联连接形成多个第三像素集合2426,每一个第三像素集合2426包括多个相互并联的像素246,每一个第三像素集合2426中所有的像素246均与一个第三驱动单元268电性连接,一个第三驱动单元268可以驱动与其电性连接的一个第三像素集合2426内所有的像素246。需要说明的是,本实施例中第六驱动单元驱动第一显示区除第三显示区以外的第一像素。
第三驱动单元268和第六驱动单元228若为相同的驱动电路,第三驱动单元268的尺寸等于或略大于第六驱动单元228的尺寸,连接第三驱动单元268的信号线与连接第六驱动单元228的线宽大致相等,第三显示区260多个第一像素并联形成第三像素集合,并且一个第三像素集合2426只需要一个第三驱动单元268驱动,一个第三驱动单元268的尺寸与一个第一像素226尺寸大致相等,第三显示区260一个第三像素集合2426的多个像素246对应一个第三驱动单元268,因此,第三显示区260设置第三驱动单元268的一层具有容纳空间,该容纳空间可以用于容纳驱动第二显示区240的第二像素246的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元。
第三显示区260在设置第一像素226和第三驱动单元268时,第三驱动单元268与其电性连接的第三像素集合2426对应设置,例如,第三驱动单元268设置在与其电性连接的第三像素集合2426下方,并与第三像素集合2426中一个第一像素226至少部分相对设置。在设置第一驱动单元248和/或第二驱动单元时,第三像素集合2426中一个像素246与一个第三驱动单元268对应设置,第三像素集合2426中另一个像 素246与一个第一驱动单元248和/或第二驱动单元对应设置。也可以理解为一个第三像素集合2426下方可以设置一个第三驱动单元268和至少一个第一驱动单元248或第二驱动单元。设置第一驱动单元248或第二驱动单元的数量与第三像素集合2426中第一像素226的个数正相关。示例性的,第三像素集合2426包括三个相互并联连接的三个第一像素,则第三像素集合2426下方可以设置一个第三驱动单元268和两个第一驱动单元248。需要说明的是,若第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元为较简略的驱动电路时(如2T1C),第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元的尺寸较小,一个第一像素可以对应两个或多个第一驱动单元或第二驱动单元。
多个第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元还可以根据需要设置在第二显示区和第三显示区。示例性的,多个第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元中部分设置在第二显示区,部分设置在第三显示区。例如,为了方便设置第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元,简化第一驱动单元、第二驱动单元与第二显示区第二像素的连接,部分第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元设置在第二显示区的周缘,部分第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元设置在第三显示区。
设置于第三显示区的第一驱动单元、第二驱动单元和第三驱动单元还可以采用另一种设置方式。具体请参阅图10和图11,图10为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第三种部分结构示意图,图11为图10所示显示装置X部分的放大示意图。驱动第三显示区260的第一像素226的多个第三驱动单元268可以集中设置,第三显示区260的多个第三驱动单元268集中设置在远离第二显示区240的位置,驱动第二显示区的第二像素的多个第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元可以集中设置在靠近第二显示区240的位置。设置在第三显示区260的多个第三驱动单元268集中设置在多个第一驱动单元248和多个第六驱动单元228之间。
第三显示区260相邻第二显示区240的第三像素集合下方都是第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,第三显示区260远离第二显示区240的第三像素集合下方都是第三驱动单元268。例如,第三像素集合为4个像素并联,第三显示区260相邻第二显示区240的一个第三像素集合下方对应设置4个第一驱动单元248,第三显示区260远离第二显示区240的一个第三像素集合下方对应设置4个第三驱动单元268。
因为第二显示区相邻第三显示区的边缘包括弧形结构,为了第二显示区平滑过渡到第一显示区或第三显示区,第二显示区设置了不规则的第二像素集合,具体可参阅上述说明,在不再赘述。
为了第三显示区也可以平滑的过渡到第二显示区,第三显示区在与第二显示区邻接的地方也设置至少一个不规则的第四像素集合,具体请参阅图12和图13,图12为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第四种部分结构示意图,图13为图12所示显示装置中Z3部分的放大方式示意图。第四像素集合2428与第二显示区240邻接;每一个第四像素集合2428中所有的第一像素226均与一个第四驱动单元电性连接;第三像素集合2426包括第三数量的相互并联的第一像素226,第三像素集合为规则的像素集合。不规则的第四像素集合2428包括第四数量的相互并联的第一像素226,第四数量小于第三数量。需要说明的是,第三数量可以为一固定的数值,如9或6等,第四数量可以为小于第三数量且不固定的数值。
规则的第三像素集合2426内第三数量的第一像素226按规则的形状排列,如2行2列排列、3行3列排列、2行3列排列、3行2列排列、4行4列排列等。第四像素集合2428包括的第一像素226的数量比第三像素集合2426少,也可以理解为,第三显示区260的多个第一像素226先划分形成多个第三像素集合2426,剩余的第一像素不足以划分形成完整的第三像素集合,剩余的第一像素划分形成至少一个第四像素集合 2428,剩余的第一像素226相邻第二显示区240边缘。剩余的第一像素226仍然按原先的划分规则划分,超出第三显示区260的放弃,仅将剩余的部分并联形成第四像素集合2428。第四像素集合2428为第三显示区260边缘不在第三像素集合2426中的第一像素226的集合。
需要说明的是,第四像素集合2428中第一像素226的数量和排布根据第三显示区边缘而定,不同的第四像素集合2428包括的第一像素226的数量和排布也可以不同。第四像素集合2428可以仅包括1个第一像素226,也可以包括多个第一像素226。
由于第三显示区260的第一像素与第二显示区240的第二像素的物理结构可以完全一致,因此通过第二显示区240的第二像素集合2426和第三显示区260的第四像素集合2428过渡,可以形成匀滑的过渡。尤其是第二显示区240的边缘包括弧形结构时,可以避免直线过渡的突兀感和锯齿状显示的破坏感。还可以对第二像素集合2426和第四像素集合2428设置对应的显示匀滑算法,对第二像素集合2426和第四像素集合2428的像素246进行显示匀滑过渡处理,实现平滑过渡。
其中,第三像素集合2426中第一像素的第三数量可以等于第一像素集合2422中第二像素的第一数量。第一像素集合2422和第三像素集合2426中像素的数量相同,第一像素集合2422和第三像素集合2426采用相同的并联方式,可以简化并联的方式。
第三像素集合2426中第一像素的第三数量也可以小于第一像素集合2422中第二像素的第一数量。第三显示区260不需要用于摄像头获取外界光信号,第三像素集合2426中像素246数量比第一像素集合2422中少,第三显示区260的显示效果可以优于第二显示区240,第一显示区除第三显示区以外的区域显示效果最好,通过第三显示区260过渡到第二显示区240,减小显示效果的突变感。
第三像素集合2426中第一像素226的第三数量也可以大于第一像素集合2422中第二像素246的第一数量。第三显示区260不需要用于摄像头获取外界光信号,第三像素集合2426中第一像素226数量比第一像素集合2422中第二像素的数量多,第三显示区260可以设置的较小,减小非正常显示区域的面积。
第三显示区260也可以不设置像素集合,即第三显示区260中每一个第一像素电性连接与一个第三驱动单元,每一个第三驱动单元与第三显示区的一个第一像素对应设置,且第三显示区的至少一个第一像素还与第一驱动单元或第二驱动单元对应设置。第三显示区为了能够容纳第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元,第三显示区的第三驱动单元可以采用较简略的驱动电路,如采用5T1C、2T1C等驱动电路,如此,第三显示区设置第三驱动单元的一层具有容纳空间,该容纳空间可以用来容纳第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元。为了可以将第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元方便的设置在第三显示区,第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元也可以采用较简略的驱动电路,如采用5T1C、2T1C等驱动电路。第一显示区除第三显示区外的第一像素可以采用比第三驱动电路更复杂效果更好的驱动电路,如7T1C等驱动电路。另外,为了第三显示区可以容纳第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元,也可以将第三显示区的第一像素尺寸做大,第三显示区的第一像素尺寸大于对应的驱动电路,如此,第三显示区多个第一像素共同容纳一个第一驱动单元。例如,第三显示区一个第一像素对应一个第二驱动单元,同时四个第一像素之间容纳一个第一驱动单元或第二驱动单元。
需要说明的是,第一驱动单元可以采用比第三驱动单元更简略的驱动电路,即一个第一驱动单元包括的薄膜晶体管的数量可以小于一个第三驱动单元包括的薄膜晶体管数量。例如,第一驱动单元为 2T1C,第三驱动单元为5T1C。第二显示区为了更好的透光率,同时为了更好的将第一驱动单元设置在第三显示区,第一驱动单元采用最简略的驱动电路。第三显示区为了更好的容纳第一驱动单元,同时为了保证第三显示区的显示效果,第三驱动电路采用比第一驱动单元效果更好的驱动电路,比第六驱动电路简略的驱动电路。为了简化驱动单元的设置,第一驱动单元和第二驱动单元可以具有相同的驱动电路,第三驱动单元和第四驱动单元可以具有相同的驱动电路。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中的第一显示区220可以为主动式驱动(AMOLED)显示区,第二显示区240可以为主动式驱动(AMOLED)显示区或被动式驱动(PMOLED)显示区。第二显示区240的面积远小于第一显示区220,第一显示区220可以作为显示装置的主要显示区,第二显示区240可以作为显示装置的辅助显示区。PMOLED的显示效果虽然低于AMOLED,但是因为第二显示区的面积很小,显示的内容也很少,而且第二显示区240可以位于显示装置的边缘,显示的内容重要性较低,所以第二显示区240可以采用PMOLED。被动式驱动的第二显示区240只需要一个薄膜晶体管(TFT)驱动,不透光的薄膜晶体管数量极少,可以极大的提升第二显示区240的透光率。当然,为了第二显示区240的显示效果与第一显示区220接近,第二显示区240也可以为主动式驱动(AMOLED)。第三显示区260可以根据需要选择主动式驱动(AMOLED)显示区或被动式驱动(PMOLED)显示区。
第一驱动单元除了设置在显示装置的显示区域内以外,还可以设置在显示区域外的非显示区。具体请参阅图14,图14为本申请实施例提供的显示装置的第五种部分结构示意图。显示装置20还可以包括非显示区280,驱动第二显示区240像素246的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元还可以设置于非显示区280。显示装置20可以为全面屏,即显示装置20的正面基本都是显示区域,从电子设备的正面看,显示装置20的正面基本等同于电子设备的显示面。但是,即使是全面屏的显示装置20,显示装置20的边缘还是会有非显示区域,非显示区域可以理解为显示装置20的黑边,黑边的宽度可以做到非常窄,如黑边宽度小于1毫米或0.5毫米等。因为第二显示区240面积小,第二显示区240内第二像素246的数量也少,而且第二显示区240的多个第二像素246并联连接,驱动第二显示区240的第二像素246的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元也少,可以将第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元设置到黑边位置,提高第二显示区240的透光率,又不会对第一显示区220或第三显示区260造成影响。对应第二显示区240的第二像素246需要设置多个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,可以将多个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元全部设置在黑边位置。为了让为黑边位置可以更好的容纳所有的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,可以用较简单的第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元,例如第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元可以采用2T1C、5T1C等驱动电路,可以使每个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元中薄膜晶体管(TFT)的数量较少,单个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元需要的空间较少。还可以第二显示区240内的第二像素246分布密度设置较低,使第二显示区240内第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元的总数较少。需要说明的是,多个第一驱动单元248和第二驱动单元还可以部分设置在非显示区280,部分设置在第二显示区240或第三显示区260。若第二显示区采用PMOLED,则第二显示区的驱动单元只有一个TFT,可以将其设置在非显示区。非显示区可以和第二显示区邻接或不邻接,若非显示区可以和第二显示区邻接则可以方便将第一驱动单元设置在非显示区。
第二显示区的多个第二像素可以以像素单元的方式设置。具体请参阅图15,图15为本申请实施例 提供的显示装置中第二显示区的第二像素的第一种结构示意图。第二显示区的多个第二像素246可以分成多个像素单元244,第二显示区包括多个像素单元244,每一个像素单元244包括至少三个不同颜色的第二像素246。第二显示区的一个像素单元244可以混色显示,一个像素单元244可以根据需要显示需要的颜色。例如,一个像素单元244包括R、G、B三种颜色的第二像素246,其可以根据需要显示红色、绿色、蓝色、白色、粉色、青色等各种颜色。第二显示区中至少两个像素单元244的同色第二像素246并联连接形成像素集合242。例如,4个像素单元244可以形成3个第一像素集合242,具体的,其中4个红色像素246并联连接形成一个第一像素集合2422,4个绿色像素246并联连接形成一个第一像素集合2422,4个蓝色像素246并联连接形成一个第一像素集合2422,该4个像素单元244形成一个显示单元。需要说明的是,一个像素单元还可以包括R、G、B、W或R、G、B、Y等多种颜色的像素。
第二像素246并联连接可以通过第二像素246的直接连接形成。例如,多个第二像素246通过与其材料相同的材料并联连接或通过其他材料的连接线并联连接。第二像素246并联还可以通过其他方式并联连接。具体的,第二显示区还包括多个金属阳极,一个第二像素246与一个金属阳极对应设置且电性连接,可以通过金属阳极的并联连接实现第二像素的并联连接。当然,一个第一像素集合2422中并联连接的多个第二像素246可以为多个同色第二像素246。例如,一个第一像素集合2422的第二像素246都为红色像素或绿色像素或蓝色像素。
第二显示区包括栅极线(图中未示出)和数据线,栅极线、数据线和第一驱动单元配合驱动每一个第二像素246。栅极线和数据线可以设置在不同层且交错排布,例如,栅极线呈行排布,数据线呈列排布。第二显示区的第二像素246的排列方式可以为标准RGB排列、Pentile排列或Delta排列中的一种。需要说明的是,数据线与第二像素246并不在同一层。
当并联的多个同色第二像素246与数据线平行且呈列排列时,两列第二像素246之间设有第一驱动信号线2462,第一驱动信号线2462与数据线平行,且通过与第一驱动信号线2462垂直的第二驱动信号线2464与第二像素246电性连接。不同的像素排列方式具有不同的并联方式,具体如图15和图16所示。

除了不同像素单元的同色的第二像素并联连接并形成像素集合以外,还可以一个像素单元中的第二像素和其他至少一个像素单元的第二像素并联连接形成像素集合。例如,一个像素单元的R第二像素和另一个像素的单元的G第二像素、B第二像素并联形成像素集合。又例如,一个像素单元的R第二像素和另一个像素的单元的G第二像素以及第三个像素单元的B第二像素并联形成像素集合。可以根据需要进行混色显示,如第二显示区为特定图标显示,可以根据特定图标将第二显示区中的第二像素并联。
此外,像素集合还可以为同一个像素单元内至少两个不同颜色的第二像素并联连接形成。如图20所示,像素集合244中的R第二像素、B第二像素和G第二像素并联连接形成第一像素集合2422。可以根据需要进行混色显示,如第二显示区为特定图标显示,可以根据特定图标将第二显示区中的第二像素并联。例如,第二显示区显示信号图标(4G、5G、WIFI等)、闹钟图标等。第二显示区只需显示白色或黑色的闹钟图标等。需要说明的是,其中可以仅两种颜色的第二像素并联,另外一种颜色的第二像素单独驱动。
为了方便理解,下面以第一驱动电路为2T1C为例进行说明。具体请参阅图21,图21为本申请实施例提供的显示装置中第二显示区多个第二像素并联的电路示意图。其中VDADA为数据线,SEL可以理解为栅极线,VDD为供电线,OLED为像素。图中示出了3个第二像素并联的实施例,可以理解的,根据需要可以并联其他数量个像素,如2个、4个、9个、16个等。需要说明的是,第三显示区中多个第一像素并联可以采用和第二显示区多个第二像素并联一样的方式,在此不再赘述。

电子设备中摄像头的镜头朝向显示装置的基板,摄像头并用于获取透过第一显示区的外界光信号进行成像。为了减小摄像头占用的空间,可以让摄像头的镜头接近或邻接显示装置的基板。显示装置的基板主要用于承载显示装置的其他层结构,本身不需要特别的功能。因为,为了进一步减小摄像头占用的空间,可以将摄像头部分设置在基板内。具体请参阅图28,图28为本申请实施例提供的显示装置和摄像头的第一种结构示意图。在基板相对摄像头60的位置设置一第一安装孔2912,摄像头60至少部分设置于该第一安装孔2912内。第一安装孔2912可以为盲孔,即基板291相对摄像头60的部分厚度小于其他部分的厚度,基板291还是完整的基板291,不影响其承载显示装置20其他层结构的作用,又能空出部分空间容纳摄像头60。第一安装孔2912和摄像头60的安装方式可以根据第一安装孔2912的尺寸和摄像头60的尺寸进行设置。示例性地,若第一安装孔2912的空间不足以安装整个摄像头60,则将摄像头60的镜头62部分设置在第一安装孔2912内。若摄像头60足够小,则将整个摄像头60设置在第一安装孔2912内。
因为第二显示区的驱动电路层没有设置第一驱动单元,驱动电路层也没有特别的功能,可以将摄像头安装进驱动电路层。具体请参阅图29,图29为本申请实施例提供的显示装置和摄像头的第二种结构示意图。第一安装孔2912为通孔,第二显示区240的驱动单元层具有相对摄像头60的第二安装孔2922,第一安装孔2912和第二安装孔2922连通,摄像头60可以至少部分位于第二安装孔2922内。例如,摄像头60的镜头62位于在第一安装孔2912和第二安装孔2922内。第二安装孔2922可以为通孔也可以为盲孔。第一安装孔2912和第二安装孔2922可以在显示装置20的部分层叠结构形成后再制作出来。例如,显示装置20的驱动电路层、阳极层、发光层、公共电极层都设置在基板291上以后,对应摄像头60镜头62位置利用激光等方式制作出第一安装孔2912和第二安装孔2922。

可以理解的是,上述任意一个实施例中,第二显示区中的第二像素的尺寸和形状可以根据需要设置。例如,第二像素可以矩形,还可以为类圆形。类圆形的第二像素可以为圆形、椭圆形或圆角矩形等。类圆形的第二像素因为边缘为弧形过渡,可以改善第二显示区的衍射问题。
显示装置可以呈规则形状,如矩形、圆角矩形或圆形。当然,在一些其它可能的实施例中,显示装置也可以呈非规则形状,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
第二显示区下方可以设置一个摄像头也可以设置多个摄像头。多个摄像头可以为相互配合的摄像头,如两个相同的摄像头、一个普通摄像头和一个虚化摄像头或黑白摄像头等,第二显示区下方除了设置摄像头以外还可以设置其他功能器件,如接近传感器、光线传感器、测距传感器、指纹识别传感器等。
