在显示装置中,液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,简称LCD)具有体积小、功耗低、制造成本相对较低和无辐射等特点,在当前的显示装置市场占据了主导地位。在采用液晶显示器实现图像显示的过程中,为避免液晶分子的特性发生固化,通常采用交流电来驱动。具体的,液晶显示器的数据信号以公共电压为基准正负变化,当数据信号的电压大于公共电压时,驱动信号为正极性,反之为负极性。若正极性的数据信号充入一子像素,则该子像素为正极性;若负极性的数据信号充入一子像素,则该子像素为负极性。目前,液晶显示器的常用的驱动方式包括:行反转方式(Row inversion)、列反转方式(Column inversion)、及点反转方式(Dot inversion)。其中,若液晶显示器采用列反转方式驱动,则在显示一帧图像过程中,每隔既定的子像素列数,充入的数据信号的极性反转。
例如,采用双栅线技术的液晶显示器相邻两列子像素可以共用一条数据线。对于列反转方法,在一帧图像的显示过程中,每条数据线上的数据信号的极性始终为同一极性(正极性或负极性),相邻两条数据线上的数据信号极性相反。这样一来,在一帧中,沿行方向排列的多个子像素列被充入数据信号的极性为正正负负的周期循环。由此,相邻两条数据线耦接的子像素列的闪烁波形之间存在π(180°)相位差,一定程度上起到了抑制闪烁的作用。然而,同一帧中,每条数据线耦接的两个子像素列被充入数据信号的极性相同,其闪烁波形之间没有相位差,容易引起列方向上的线闪烁,需要在下一 帧中,通过改变每条数据线上的数据信号的极性,才可以抑制闪烁。
若用户始终在观看显示画面,同一子像素列在相邻两帧中的极性反转,而抑制列方向上的线闪烁。而在用户摇头时,可能会出现观察的画面丢帧,导致可能存在一帧中列方向上的线闪烁不能下一帧抑制的情况发生,容易产生摇头纹(V-line)等显示不良,也就是用户在摇头时会观察到显示屏出现了周期性明暗相间的竖条纹。
为了解决这一问题,本公开的一些实施例提供了一种显示装置。示例性地,该显示装置可以是:显示器,电视,广告牌,数码相框,具有显示功能的激光打印机,电话,手机,个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA),数码相机,便携式摄录机,取景器,导航仪,车用显示装置,拼接显示装置,家电,信息查询设备(如电子政务、银行、医院、电力等部门的业务查询设备),监视器等。
在本公开的一些实施例中,参见图1,显示装置包括显示面板100。显示面板可以是液晶显示面板,例如,可以是AD-SDS(Advanced-Super Dimensional Switching,高级超维场开关技术)型液晶显示面板,其具有高透过率、宽视角、高开口率、低色差、低响应时间、无挤压水波纹(push Mura)波纹等优点,进一步提升了画面品质,拓宽了应用范围,具有更广阔的应用前景。显示装置还可以包括:背光模组2,被配置为向显示面板1提供背光。
示例性地,显示装置还可以包括驱动芯片。例如,驱动芯片为驱动IC,驱动IC包括源极驱动器。具体的,驱动芯片被配置为向显示面板100提供数据信号。继续参见图1,显示面板100可以包括阵列基板101和对盒基板102,以及设置在阵列基板101和对盒基板102之间的液晶层103。为了实现彩色显示,该显示面板100还可以包括彩色滤光层。该彩色滤光层可以设置于对盒基板102上,此时设置有彩色滤光层的对盒基板102可以称为彩膜基板。
参见图2,显示面板具有显示区(active area,简称AA区)和周边区S。其中,周边区S位于显示区至少一侧。示例性地,周边区S可以围绕显示区一圈设置。
在本公开的一些实施例中,显示面板100可以包括多个子像素P,多个子像素P位于AA区,多个子像素P按行方向和列方向阵列排布。例如,沿行方向排列成一排的子像素P称为同一行像素,沿列方向排列成一排的子像素P称为同一列像素。其中,行方向用X表示,列方向用Y表示。
示例性地,每行子像素包括多个第一颜色子像素、多个第二颜色子像素 和多个第三颜色子像素。示例性地,对第一颜色、第二颜色和第三颜色不做限制,可以为三基色,也可以为其他颜色。例如,第一颜色、第二颜色和第三颜色分别为蓝色、绿色和红色;即,多个子像素P包括蓝色子像素、绿色子像素和红色子像素。
对每行子像素P的排布方式不做限制,对相邻两行子像素P的排布方式也不做限制。示例性地,以任意顺序相邻排布的一个第一颜色子像素、一个第二颜色子像素和一个第三颜色子像素为一个子像素组240,每行子像素P可以包括多个重复排布的子像素组240,相邻两行子像素P的排布方式可以相同,也可以不同。例如,图2中,第一颜色子像素为红色子像素R,第二颜色子像素为绿色子像素G,第三颜色子像素为蓝色子像素B。每行子像素P包括多个重复排布的子像素组240。在奇数行中,每个子像素组240包括依次排布的一个红色子像素R、一个绿色子像素G和一个蓝色子像素B;在偶数行中,每个子像素组240包括依次排布的一个蓝色子像素B、一个红色子像素R和一个绿色子像素G。又例如,各行中子像素P的排布方式相同。
每个子像素P可以包括:像素电极250和公共电极260,二者之间形成的电场施加给该子像素P中的液晶分子,使得该子像素P的液晶分子呈相应的排列方式,从而控制控制该子像素P的出光亮度。此外,每个子像素P还包括:与像素电极250耦接的开关器件。例如,开关器件可以是薄膜晶体管。
其中,像素电极250和公共电极260可以设置在液晶层的同一侧。例如,AD-SDS型显示面板中,阵列基板包括像素电极和公共电极,通常其中一者带有狭缝,公共电极和像素电极的上下位置可以变换。狭缝的方向角度都可以根据需要进行设置,比如为了取得高开口率,将狭缝设置成和数据线平行。当然,像素电极250和公共电极260还可以分别设置在液晶层的相对两侧。显示面板100(例如,阵列基板)还包括多条栅线GL(Gate Line)和多条数据线DL(Data Line)。其中,栅线GL可以用来传输栅极驱动信号(也称为扫描信号),以逐行开启显示面板100中的多个子像素P;数据线DL被配置为向开启的子像素P提供数据信号。例如,每个子像素P中,薄膜晶体管的栅极与一条栅线耦接,第一极(例如,源极)与一条数据线耦接,第二极(例如,漏极)与像素电极耦接,从而该薄膜晶体管的开或关,决定了数据线能否向像素电极充入数据信号。示例性地,显示面板100还可以包括与栅线GL连接的GOA(Gate driver On Array)电路,用于向栅线GL提供栅极驱动信号。GOA电路包括多个GOA单元,多个GOA单元与多条栅线GL一一对应地耦接。
下面参见图4~图10,本公开实施例提供了多种显示面板中阵列基板的结构图。其中,R、G、B所在的图案分别表示显示面板中红色子像素中的像素电极,绿色子像素中的像素电极和蓝色子像素中的像素电极。
参见图4,多条栅线包括在列方向上交替设置的第一栅线GL1和第二栅线GL2,且相邻的一条第一栅线GL1和一条第二栅线GL2形成一个栅线对220,同一栅线对220中的两条栅线与同一行子像素P耦接。示例性地,同一栅线对220中的两条栅线GL可以位于与其耦接的同一行子像素P在列方向上的两侧,即一行子像素P位于与其耦接的一栅线对220中的两条栅线GL之间。又示例性地,同一栅线对220中的两条栅线可以位于与其耦接的同一行子像素P在列方向上的同一侧。示例性地,参见图4,同一行子像素P中,各个第一颜色子像素均与一条第一栅线GL1耦接。这样可以使位于同一行的第一颜色子像素由一条第一栅线GL1开启。图3所示为位于同一行的同种颜色子像素由不同的栅线开启的情况。GL1向同一行中与其耦接的多个子像素P输入栅极驱动信号以开启子像素P,子像素P接收数据线DL传输的数据信号,并在数据信号的驱动下显示相应的颜色。以第一颜色子像素为红色子像素为例,参见图3中的(a),同一行中与GL1耦接的多个红色子像素先开启并先在数据信号的驱动下进行显示颜色更新,参见图3中的(b),与GL2耦接的多个红色子像素后开启并在数据信号的驱动下进行显示颜色更新,同一行中的多个红色子像素的显示颜色更新存在时间差,导致位于同一行的同种颜色子像素在同一时刻显示的颜色存在差异,对显示效果造成不良影响。
而本公开的实施例中,同一行子像素P中,各个第一颜色子像素均与一条第一栅线GL1耦接。这样可以使位于同一行的第一颜色子像素由一条第一栅线GL1同时开启并同时在数据信号的驱动下进行显示颜色更新,从而避免了同一行中某种颜色的显示闪烁问题,具有更优的显示效果。
示例性地,参见图3,以第一颜色子像素为红色子像素为例,位于同于行中的部分红色子像素由GL1开启,该行中其余红色子像素由GL2开启。由于在实际驱动过程中,开启同一行子像素的GL1和GL2所传输的栅极驱动信号之间存在时间差,会使得位于同一行的红色子像素无法同时开启,导致在行方向上出现显示闪烁的问题,对显示效果造成不良影响。而使位于同一行的第一颜色子像素由一条第一栅线GL1开启,能够保证位于同一行的第一颜色子像素同时开启,从而能够避免上述的问题,实现更好的显示效果。
示例性地,同一行子像素P中,各个第二颜色子像素均与一条第二栅线GL2耦接。该连接设置能够起到的作用与上述第一颜色子像素连接设置类似, 在此不再赘述。
多条数据线DL包括在行方向上交替设置的第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2,第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2被配置为传输极性不同的数据信号。
同一行子像素P中,相邻的两个子像素P形成一个子像素对230,同一子像素对230中的两个子像素P与同一条数据线DL耦接,每相邻的两个子像素对230分别与一条第一数据线DL1和一条第二数据线DL2耦接;与同一条数据线DL耦接的不同子像素P分别耦接至不同栅线GL。示例性地,对子像素对230与数据线DL的相对位置不做限制,只要能够实现上述连接关系即可,例如,相邻两个子像素对230在行方向上可以位于与其分别耦接的一条第一数据线DL1和一条第二数据线DL2之间;又如,相邻的两个子像素对230和与其分别耦接的一条第一数据线DL1和一条第二数据线DL2在行方向上的位置分布依次为:子像素对230、第一数据线DL1、第二数据线DL2和子像素对230。
在第一颜色子像素为红色子像素R,第二颜色子像素为绿色子像素G,第三颜色子像素为蓝色子像素B的情况下,在同一行子像素P中,各个第一颜色子像素P1均与一条第一栅线GL1耦接、各个第二颜色子像素P2均与一条第二栅线GL2耦接,同时与同一条数据线DL耦接的不同子像素P分别耦接至不同栅线GL,即在同一行子像素P中各个红色子像素R均与一条第一栅线GL1耦接,各个绿色子像素G均与一条第二栅线GL2耦接,各个蓝色子像素B依次与第一栅线GL1和第二栅线GL2交替耦接。由于相比于红色子像素R和绿色子像素G,蓝色子像素B的发光亮度最小,对发光亮度均匀性的影响最小,因此通过上述设置方式能够最大程度地降低不同颜色子像素P对显示面板100发光亮度均匀程度的影响。
位于同一列且颜色相同的多个子像素P包括:交替分布的第一类子像素和第二类子像素,每个第一类子像素与一条第一数据线DL1耦接,每个第二类子像素与一条第二数据线DL2耦接。即在显示面板100中,至少一条(例如,可以是多条)数据线DL不是在列方向上直线延伸的信号线,而是存在弯折。示例性地,多条第一数据线DL1和多条第二数据线DL2不是在列方向上直线延伸的信号线,而是存在弯折,使得同一列的多个颜色相同的子像素P中部分与第一数据线DL1耦接,其余与第二数据线DL2耦接。由于第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2传输的数据信号极性不同,因而同一列中与其分别耦接的多个颜色相同的子像素P极性也不相同。具体的,交替分布是指颜色 相同且位于同一列的子像素P的极性同时存在正极性和负极性,在一帧图像的显示过程中,一些(至少一个)正极性的子像素P和一些(至少一个)负极性的子像素P交替分布。该交替分布可以是周期性重复的,也可以是任意的混合方式,对此不做限制。例如,对于红色子像素而言,交替分布是指在一帧图像的显示过程中,参见图4,在列方向上位于同一列中的红色子像素的极性依次为正、负、负周期性重复;又例如,参见图6,在列方向上位于同一列中的红色子像素的极性依次为正、负周期性重复。
对同一个子像素P而言,当输入数据信号的极性不同时,其发光亮度存在差异。而上述设置方式利用列反转的数据信号输入方式可以实现类似点反转的显示效果,在每一帧图像的显示过程中能够使得位于同一行中颜色相同的多个子像素P的极性为正正负负周期循环,位于同一列中颜色相同的多个子像素P的极性为正负极性相混合,从而对AA区的每个子像素P而言,每帧内在行、列方向上都能实现亮度的平均,实现较好的显示效果,从而在相邻两帧内对同一子像素P进行极性反转时,不会出现局部同种颜色子像素极性相同而导致的显示闪烁问题。
示例性地,与一个像素对230耦接的数据线DL位于像素对230中的两个子像素P之间。例如,参见图4,相邻的两个子像素对230和与其分别耦接的一条第一数据线DL1和一条第二数据线DL2在行方向上的位置分布依次为:子像素对230、第一数据线DL1、子像素对230和第二数据线DL2。这样,数据线DL无需绕线即可实现与一个像素对230中的两个子像素P的耦接,能够简化布线方案,有利于生产成本的控制。
示例性地,位于相邻两行子像素P中的与同一条数据线DL耦接的两个子像素对230,其中一个子像素对230中的两个子像素P分别位于第j列和第j+1列,另一个子像素对230中的两个子像素P分别位于第j-1列和第j列;其中,第j-1列、所述第j列和所述第j+1列为连续的三列。其中,j为正整数。即,至少两行(例如,可以是多行)范围内数据线DL的形状为在列方向上每向下延伸一行,则在行方向上向左或向右跨过一个子像素P继续延伸。例如,参见图4~图7,在显示面板100的第1行~第4行范围内,数据线DL在列方向上每向下延伸一行,则在行方向上向左跨过一个子像素P,并重复上述走线方式。这样同一列中相邻两行子像素P之间仅存在一条第一栅线GL1、一条第二栅线GL2和一条数据线DL三条信号线,相邻两个子像素P之间的距离较小,有利于增大单位面积的像素密度,实现更高的显示分辨率。
示例性地,多条数据线DL中的一条数据线DL包括:顺次连接的多条数 据子线DL’,每条数据子线DL’与位于不同行的Q个子像素对230耦接,且与每条数据子线DL’耦接的第i个子像素对230均位于相同的两列;其中,i∈[1,Q],所述Q≥2。例如,参见图10,当Q=4时,每条数据子线DL’与位于不同行的4个子像素对230耦接,即每条数据子线DL’的延伸范围为4行,每条数据子线DL’延伸范围内位于第i行的子像素对230即为与数据子线DL’耦接的第i个子像素对230,i=1,2,3,4。由图10可见,第2个子像素对230与第4个子像素对230位于相同的两列。又如,参见图6,当Q=8时,第2个子像素对230与第8个子像素对230位于相同的两列,第3个子像素对230与第7个子像素对230位于相同的两列,第4个子像素对230与第6个子像素对230位于相同的两列。
示例性地,Q为偶数,且所述Q≥4。在此情况下,与每条数据子线DL’耦接的Q个子像素对230中,第k个子像素对230与第Q-k+2个子像素对230位于相同的两列;其中,k∈[2,Q/2]。例如,Q=6。当Q=6时,k∈[2,3]。具体的,参见图4~图5、图7,k=2时,第2个子像素对230与第6个子像素对230位于相同的两列;k=3时,第3个子像素对230与第5个子像素对230位于相同的两列。当Q=6时,显示面板100中的各条数据线DL绕线距离较短,从而使得每行中同种颜色的子像素P发光亮度适中,实现良好的显示效果。
示例性地,同一列子像素P中,每相邻两个子像素P的颜色不同,也即相邻两行子像素P的排布方式不相同。示例性地,同一列中的多个子像素P可以周期性重复排布,该周期可以为2行,3行,4行或其他周期,对此不做限制。具体的,当周期为2行时,各个奇数行子像素P中,位于同一列的各子像素P颜色相同;各个偶数行子像素P中,位于同一列的各子像素P颜色相同。例如,参见图4~图10,一个子像素组240包括依次排布的一个红色子像素R、一个绿色子像素G和一个蓝色子像素B,每行子像素P包括多个重复排布的子像素组240,同时,同一列中的多个子像素P的排布周期为2行,此时,以第一列为例,在第一列中位于奇数行的两个子像素P的颜色相同,位于偶数行的两个子像素P的颜色也相同,任意相邻两行中两个子像素P的颜色不同。
示例性地,参见图4,在Q=6,数据子线DL’的形状设置以及子像素组240的设置方式如上所述和多个子像素P的排布周期为2行的情况下,同一行、同一列中多个颜色相同、极性不同的子像素P混合均匀,不存在整列同色子像素P的极性相同的情况,能够实现亮度平均,达到较好的显示效果。
具体的,对数据子线DL’的形状和在显示面板100中的分布范围不做过多限制,可以在整个AA区设置多条相互平行的数据子线DL’,也可以仅在AA区的局部设置多条相互平行的数据子线DL’,在AA区的其他位置数据线DL的设置方式仍为常规的直线型延伸设置。例如,数据子线DL’的形状可以如图4~图5、图7所示,Q=6,在第1行~第3行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向左(或者向右)跨过一个子像素P,在第4行~第6行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向右(或者向左)跨过一个子像素P。例如,数据子线DL’的形状可以如图6所示,Q=8,在第1行~第4行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向左(或者向右)跨过一个子像素P,在第5行~第8行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向右(或者向左)跨过一个子像素P。又例如,数据子线DL’的形状可以如图8所示,Q=4,在第1行中,在列方向上向左(或者向右)跨过两个子像素P同时向下延伸两行,在第3行~第4行中,向右(或者向左)跨过两个子像素P同时在列方向上向下延伸一行。还例如,数据子线DL’的形状可以如图9所示,Q=4,在第1行~第2行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向右(或者向左)跨过一个子像素P,在第3行中,在列方向上向下延伸一行则向左(或者向右)跨过三个子像素P,在第4行中,在列方向上向下延伸一行则向右(或者向左)跨过三个子像素P。再例如,数据子线DL’的形状可以如图10所示,Q=4,在第1行~第2行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向左(或者向右)跨过一个子像素P,在第3行~第4行中,在列方向上每向下延伸一行则向右(或者向左)跨过一个子像素P。上述的多种数据子线DL’的设置方式所能实现的有益效果与前述各实施例的有益效果一致,在此不再赘述。
示例性地,多条数据线DL平行设置。显示面板100中的多条数据线DL的形状也即布线方式一致。上述设置可以使显示面板100中的各条数据线DL长度一致,输入至各行子像素P的电阻值均相等,从而使得每行中同种颜色的子像素P发光亮度一致,显示效果较佳。
显示面板100还可以具有触控功能,相关技术中常用的实现触控的触控技术包括表面式(On Cell)触控技术和内嵌式(In Cell)触控技术。其中,可采用内嵌式触控技术实现显示面板100的触控。
示例性地,显示面板100还包括多条触控信号线TL(Touch Line)多条触控信号线中的至少一条(例如,可以是多条)与一条数据线DL平行设置。参见图4~图10,以触控驱动信号线TL与数据线DL平行设置为例进行说明。具体的,触控信号线TL可以与数据线DL同层设置,形状也即布线方式与数 据线DL一致。通过上述设置方式,通过一次构图工艺即可形成触控信号线TL可以与数据线DL,得到发光亮度均匀且具有触控功能的显示面板100,能够简化制作工艺。又示例的,显示面板100可以为自容式触控显示面板,公共电极260与触控信号线耦接。在显示阶段,触控信号线为公共电极260提供公共电极驱动信号,在非显示阶段,触控信号线为公共电极260提供触控信号,公共电极260复用做触控电极。通过上述设置方式,通过一次构图工艺即可形成触控信号线TL可以与数据线DL,得到发光亮度均匀且具有触控功能的显示面板100,能够简化制作工艺。
同时参见图11,阵列基板101靠近液晶层103的一侧设置有面状的像素电极250,公共电极260位于像素电极250靠近液晶层103的一侧。公共电极260上设置有多个狭缝,其中一部分狭缝与像素电极250相对应,从而形成边缘电场;还有一部分狭缝与数据线DL相对应,从而减弱其他信号对数据信号的干扰。狭缝在阵列基板101上的正投影与栅线GL1、GL2在阵列基板101上的正投影不存在重叠区域,有利于减小重叠区域的寄生电容,避免了栅线上的信号延迟。同一列中相邻两行子像素P之间仅存在一条第一栅线GL1、一条第二栅线GL2和一条数据线DL或一条第一栅线GL1、一条第二栅线GL2和触控信号线TL三条信号线,相邻两个子像素P之间的距离较小,有利于增大单位面积的像素密度,实现更高的显示分辨率。
基于上述介绍的显示面板100,本公开的一些实施例提供一种显示面板的驱动方法,其执行主体可以是上述的显示面板100,也可以是包括上述显示面板100的产品。
参见图12,该驱动方法可以包括以下步骤:
S101、向显示面板中的多条栅线输入栅极驱动信号,逐行开启显示面板中的多个子像素。
在显示面板100显示一帧图像过程中,GOA电路中的GOA单元向显示面板100中的多条栅线GL输入栅极驱动信号,以逐行开启显示面板100中的多个子像素P,使得多个子像素P中,与多条栅线GL中一条第一栅线GL1耦接的各个第一颜色子像素同时开启。
同一行子像素P中,各个第二颜色子像素均与一条第二栅线GL2耦接。
向显示面板100中的多条栅线GL输入栅极驱动信号包括对与该行子像素P耦接的第一栅线GL1和第二栅线GL2同时输入栅极驱动信号,用于将与该行子像素P相连接的每一个TFT导通。
S102、多条数据线依次为开启的每行子像素输入数据信号。
显示面板100还包括多条数据线DL,多条数据线DL包括在行方向上交替设置的第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2。
同一行子像素P中,相邻的两个子像素P形成一个子像素对230,同一子像素对230中的两个子像素P与同一条数据线DL耦接,每相邻的两个子像素对230分别与一条第一数据线DL1和一条第二数据线DL2耦接;与同一条数据线DL耦接的不同子像素P分别耦接至不同栅线GL。具体的,同一行子像素P中,各个第一颜色子像素均与一条第一栅线GL1耦接,各个第二颜色子像素均与一条第二栅线GL2耦接,各个第三颜色子像素交替地与第一栅线GL1和第二栅线GL2耦接。
位于同一列且颜色相同的多个子像素P包括:交替分布的第一类子像素PD1和第二类子像素PD2,每个第一类子像素PD1与一条第一数据线DL1耦接,每个第二类子像素PD2与一条第二数据线DL2耦接。
上述显示面板的驱动方法还包括通过多条数据线DL依次为开启的每行子像素P输入数据信号。其中,在显示面板100显示一帧图像过程中,第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2传输极性不同的数据信号,且多条数据线DL中的每条数据线DL传输的数据信号极性不变。
结合前述的显示面板100的结构,上述驱动方法能够实现在显示面板100显示一帧图像过程中,AA区内位于同一行、同一列的多个相同颜色的子像素P的极性不同的,颜色相同、极性不同的多个子像素P的混合能够实现发光亮度的平均,实现较好的显示效果。由于在每一帧内均可实现发光亮度的平均,因而在相邻两帧内对同一子像素P进行极性反转时,不会产生因亮度不均而导致的摇头纹不良。
在一些实施例中,在显示面板100显示相邻两帧图像过程中,多条数据线DL中同一条数据线DL传输的数据信号极性不同。例如,图4所示为在显示面板100显示相邻两帧图像中的第一帧图像过程中各数据线DL传输数据信号的极性情况,可见第一数据线DL1传输的数据信号电性均为正,第二数据线DL2传输的数据信号电性为负,在该帧图像的显示过程中,第一数据线DL1和第二数据线DL2传输的数据信号极性相反且保持不变;图7所示为在显示面板100显示相邻两帧图像中的第二帧图像过程中各数据线DL传输数据信号的极性情况,可见第一数据线DL1传输的数据信号电性转换为负,第二数据线DL2传输的数据信号电性转换为正,且在第二帧图像的显示过程中极性均不变。
液晶分子如果一直工作在某一固定的电压下不变,液晶分子的特性会发 生固化,固化后即使取消该固定电压,液晶分子也无法再响应外加电压的变化。在显示面板100中包括液晶分子的情况下,上述在相邻两帧图像显示过程中同一条数据线DL传输数据信号的极性反转,能够避免液晶分子的物理特性发生固化的问题,从而实现更好的显示效果,延长设备使用寿命。
以上所述,仅为本公开的具体实施方式,但本公开的保护范围并不局限于此,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本公开揭露的技术范围内,想到变化或替换,都应涵盖在本公开的保护范围之内。因此,本公开的保护范围应以所述权利要求的保护范围为准。
