具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请进行说明。此处所描述的实施例仅仅用于解释本申请,而非对本申请的限定。
正如背景技术中所述,常规显示面板中存在短期残影的问题,例如显示面板中原来显示不同灰阶的发光器件向同一灰阶切换时发光亮度不同,使得显示效果较差。经研究发现,出现上述问题的原因在于,常规显示面板通常包括多个像素电路,像素电路包括驱动发光器件发光的驱动晶体管,驱动晶体管通过控制流过发光器件的驱动电流来控制发光器件的发光亮度。驱动晶体管产生的驱动电流大小与驱动晶体管的栅源电压差相关,不同显示灰阶下,驱动晶体管的栅源电压差大小不同。驱动晶体管栅源电压差的不同,使得驱动晶体管的工作状态存在差异,进而使得在驱动晶体管内部的有源层、栅极绝缘层以及有源层和栅极绝缘层的界面处载流子的捕获和释放程度存在差异,导致由不同灰阶向同一灰阶转换时,由于初始状态下驱动晶体管栅源电压差不同导致驱动晶体管的驱动电流大小不同,最终导致发光亮度的差异,形成残影。并且相关技术中,对驱动晶体管栅极进行初始化时,驱动晶体管的源极通常处于浮置状态,进而使得栅极电位的改变也会引起源极电位的改变,使得驱动晶体管的复位不充分,短期残影现象仍然存在。
基于上述问题,本申请实施例提供了一种像素电路,该像素电路包括数据写入模块、第一复位模块、驱动晶体管、发光模块;其中,数据写入模块设置为在第一复位阶段将数据信号端输入的恒定的第一电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的第一极;第一复位模块设置为在第一复位阶段将复位信号端输入的复位电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的栅极;数据写入模块设置为在数据写入阶段,将数据信号端输入的数据电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的栅极。
可选的,一帧内,第一复位阶段可以在数据写入阶段之前进行。
通过在第一复位阶段,数据写入模块将数据信号端输入的恒定的第一电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的第一极,以及第一复位模块将复位信号端输入的复位电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的栅极,使得在第一复位阶段,驱动晶体管的栅极、第一极都得到复位,进而可以使得在第一复位阶段后多个像素电路中驱动晶体管栅源电压差相等,即使得多个像素电路中驱动晶体管的初始状态完全一致,可以实现对驱动晶体管的完全复位,因此在包括多个像素电路的显示面板中,多个像素电路中的驱动晶体管在第一复位阶段都可以被恢复为相同的状态,则在不同帧中进行灰阶切换时,无论上一帧显示灰阶是否相同,在本帧的第一复位阶段,驱动晶体管都会恢复到相同的初始状态,进而使得灰阶切换过程中驱动晶体管内部的有源层、栅极绝缘层、以及有源层和栅极绝缘层界面处的载流子的捕获和释放程度趋于一致,使得由不同灰阶向同一灰阶切换时,驱动晶体管可以产生相同的驱动电流,则发光模块的发光亮度基本一致,进而减轻残影现象。并且,本申请实施例提供的像素电路,通过数据信号端输入信号实现对驱动晶体管第一极的复位,进而无需单独设置对驱动晶体管第一极进行复位的 模块,进而有利于简化像素电路结构,进而减小像素电路面积,提高像素密度。
本申请实施例的提供的像素电路,通过在第一复位阶段和数据写入阶段,分别向数据信号端提供恒定的第一电压信号和数据电压信号,在第一复位阶段,数据写入模块将恒定的第一电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的第一极;并且在第一复位阶段,通过第一复位模块将复位信号端输入的复位电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的栅极;即在第一复位阶段,数据信号端输入的第一电压信号作为驱动晶体管第一极的复位信号,复位信号端输入的复位电压信号作为驱动晶体管栅极的复位信号,相应的,通过控制在第一复位阶段像素电路中数据写入模块和第一复位模块导通,使得第一电压信号可传输到驱动晶体管的第一极,复位电压信号可传输至驱动晶体管的栅极,进而实现驱动晶体管在第一复位阶段的完全复位,则在不同帧中进行灰阶切换时,无论上一帧显示灰阶是否相同,在本帧的第一复位阶段,驱动晶体管都会恢复到相同的初始状态,进而使得灰阶切换过程中驱动晶体管内部的有源层、栅极绝缘层、以及有源层和栅极绝缘层界面处的载流子的捕获和释放程度趋于一致,使得由不同灰阶向同一灰阶切换时,驱动晶体管可以产生相同的驱动电流,则发光模块的发光亮度基本一致,进而减轻残影现象,提高显示效果。
可选的,像素电路还包括第二复位模块,第二复位模块设置为在第一复位阶段,将复位信号端输入的复位电压信号写入到驱动晶体管的第二极。
在第一复位阶段,第二复位模块将复位信号端输入的复位信号写入到驱动晶体管的第二极,使得在驱动晶体管第二极也可以得到复位,即在第一复位阶段,驱动晶体管的第一极、第二极和栅极都可得到复位,可选的,第一极为驱动晶体管的栅极,第二极为驱动晶体管的漏极。并且,可选的,复位信号端输入的复位电压信号与驱动数据信号端输入的第一电压信号的差值的绝对值大于驱动晶体管阈值电压的差值的绝对值,进而保证在第一复位阶段,驱动晶体管可以导通,进而使得数据信号端和复位信号端之间形成电流通路,实现对驱动晶体管的开态电流型复位。

参考图3和图4,该像素电路的工作过程包括第一复位阶段t00、第二复位阶段t01、数据写入阶段t02和发光阶段t03。
在第一复位阶段t00,第一扫描信号端Scan1输入低电平信号,写入晶体管T1和补偿晶体管T2的导通;数据信号端Vdata输入恒定的第一电压信号,该第一电压信号通过导通的写入晶体管T1写入到驱动晶体管DT的第一极;在第一复位阶段t00,第二扫描信号端Scan2输入低电平信号,第二复位模块120(第一复位晶体管T3)导通,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第一复位晶体管T3写入到驱动晶体管DT的第二极;在第一复位阶段t00,第三扫描信号端Scan3输入低电平,第一复位模块130(第二复位晶体管T4)导通,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第二复位晶体管T4写入到驱动晶体管DT的栅极,进而在第一复位阶段t00实现了对驱动晶体管DT的强制完全复位,进而有利于改善短期残影现象。
在第二复位阶段t01,第二扫描信号端Scan2输入低电平信号,第二复位模块120(第一复位晶体管T3)导通,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第一复位晶体管T3写入驱动晶体管DT的第二极;在第二复位阶段t01,第三扫描信号端Scan3输入低电平,第一复位模块130(第二复位晶体管T4)导通,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第二复位晶体管T4写入到驱动晶体管DT的栅极。需要说明的是,第一复位阶段t00已经可以实现对驱动晶体管DT的栅极的复位,因此该第二复位阶段t01也可省略。
在数据写入阶段t02,第一扫描信号端Scan1输入低电平信号,写入晶体管T1和补偿晶体管T2的导通,数据信号端Vdata输入数据电压信号,该数据电压信号通过导通的写入晶体管T1、驱动晶体管DT和补偿晶体管T2写入到驱动晶体管DT的栅极,实现数据电压的信号和驱动晶体管DT阈值电压的补偿。
在第一复位阶段t00、第二复位阶段t01和数据写入阶段t02,第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2输入高电平信号,第一发光控制模块150(第五晶体管T5)和第二发光控制模块160(第六晶体管T6)关断。

图4所示驱动时序中,第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2输入信号相同,因此第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2可以是相同的发光控制信号端,即第一发光控制模块150和第二发光控制模块160的控制端可连接相同的端口,也即第一发光控制模块150和第二发光控制模块160的控制端可连接相同的发光控制信号线,进而节省包括本实施例像素电路的显示面板中发光控制信号线的数量,进而有利于简化布线。
对于图1所示像素电路的驱动时序,只需将图4所示驱动时序中第二扫描信号输入端Scan2的时序删除,其他时序不变,并且图1所示像素电路除不包括第二复位模块外,其他多个模块的工作工程与图3所示像素电路的工作过程均相同,通过在第一复位阶段对驱动晶体管DT的栅极和第一极进行复位,使得多个像素电路中驱动晶体管DT在第一复位阶段被恢复到相同初始状态,进而改善残影。
图5是本申请实施例提供的另一种像素电路的驱动时序图,该驱动时序可用于驱动图2和图3所示的像素电路,参考图2、图3和图5,第二复位模块120还设置为在第二复位阶段t11,在第二扫描信号端Scan2输入信号的控制下导通,以及第二发光控制模块160还设置为在第二复位阶段t11,在第二发光控制信号端EM2输入信号的控制下导通,以使复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过第二复位模块120和第二发光控制模块160写入到发光模块140的第一端;第一发光控制模块150还设置为在第二复位阶段,在第一发光控制信号端EM1输入信号的控制下关断。

像素电路在第一复位阶段t10的工作过程与图4所示驱动时序在第一复位阶段t00的工作过程相同,在此不再赘述。在第一复位阶段t10实现了对驱动晶体管DT的强制完全复位,进而有利于改善短期残影现象。
在第二复位阶段t11,第二扫描信号端Scan2输入低电平信号,第二复位模块120(第一复位晶体管T3)导通,并且在第二复位阶段t11,第二发光控制信号端EM2输入低电平信号,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第 一复位晶体管T3和第二发光控制模块160写入到发光模块140的第一端(有机发光器件D1的阳极),进而避免发光模块140第一端残留电荷对显示效果的影响;在第二复位阶段t11,第三扫描信号端Scan3输入低电平,第一复位模块130(第二复位晶体管T4)导通,复位信号端Vref输入的复位电压信号通过导通的第二复位晶体管T4写入到驱动晶体管DT的栅极。

在第一复位阶段t10、第二复位阶段t11和数据写入阶段t12,第一发光控制信号端EM1输入高电平信号,第一发光控制晶体管T5关断;在发光阶段t13,第一发光控制信号端EM1输入低电平信号,第一发光控制模块150(第一发光控制晶体管T5)导通,第二发光控制信号端EM2输入低电平信号,第二发光控制模块160(第二发光控制晶体管T6)导通,驱动晶体管DT驱动发光模块140发光。
图5所示驱动时序与图4所示驱动时序的区别在于,第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2的时序不同,相应的,像素电路的第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2为不同的发光控制信号端,即第一发光控制模块150控制端和第二发光控制模块160的控制端连接不同的端口。通过设置第一发光控制信号端EM1和第二发光控制信号端EM2为不同的发光控制信号端,使第一发光控制模块150和第二发光控制模块160由不同的发光控制信号控制,可以实现通过第二复位模块120和第二发光控制模块160对发光模块140第一端的复位,避免发光模块140第一端残留电荷对显示效果的影响。
