随着显示技术的发展,柔性显示产品得到的关注越来越多。柔性显示产品的显示基板的下边框会在弯折区域弯折收窄,下边框的弯折区域的边缘走线存在信赖性腐蚀的情况,容易造成显示产品的显示问题。
本实施例提供一种显示基板,包括:显示区域和位于显示区域周围的边框区域,边框区域包括:相互连通的第一边框区域和第二边框区域,第一边框区域至少包括:沿第一方向位于显示区域一侧的弯折区域。显示基板包括:衬底、多个子像素、多个栅极驱动电路、 至少一条第一周边控制线和多条第二周边控制线。多个子像素设置在衬底的一侧且位于显示区域。多个栅极驱动电路位于第二边框区域,并与多个子像素电连接,配置为向所述多个子像素提供多种像素控制信号。至少一条第一周边控制线位于第一边框区域,并与多个栅极驱动电路连接。多条第二周边控制线位于第一边框区域,所述多条第二周边控制线中的一部分第二周边控制线与所述多个栅极驱动电路连接;每条第一周边控制线所传输信号的电位低于每条第二周边控制线所传输信号的电位。在弯折区域,所述多条第二周边控制线中的至少一条第二周边控制线位于所述至少一条第一周边控制线与显示基板的边界之间。换言之,至少一条第二周边控制线位于所述至少一条第一周边控制线靠近显示基板的边界的一侧。所述至少一条第一周边控制线不是最靠近显示基板的边界的走线。
本实施例提供的显示基板,通过将传输电位较低的第一周边控制线设置在传输电位较高的至少一条第二周边控制线远离显示基板的边界的一侧,可以增加第一周边控制线与显示基板的边界之间的距离,有利于避免第一周边控制线发生信赖性腐蚀情况。
在一些示例性实施方式中,显示基板还可以包括:位于第一边框区域的多条周边数据线,所述多条周边数据线与所述多个子像素电连接,配置为给所述多个子像素提供数据信号。在第二方向上,所述多条第二周边控制线和所述至少一条第一周边控制线位于所述多条周边数据线与显示基板的边界之间。其中,第二方向与第一方向交叉;例如,第二方向可以垂直于第一方向。在一些示例中,多条第二周边控制线可以位于多条周边数据线在第二方向的两侧,至少一条第一周边控制线可以位于多条周边数据线靠近至少一条第二周边控制线的一侧。本实施例对此并不限定。

在一些示例性实施方式中,第一边框区域还可以包括:位于弯折区域远离显示区域一侧的第一信号接入区域。显示基板还可以包括:位于第一信号接入区域且沿第二方向排布的多个第一接触垫。所述多个第一接触垫可以包括:与所述至少一条第一周边控制线连接的至少一个第一控制接触垫、以及与所述多条第二周边控制线连接的多个第二控制接触垫。在第二方向上,所述多个第二控制接触垫中的至少一个第二控制接触垫可以位于所述至少一个第一控制接触垫与所述显示基板的边界之间。换言之,在第二方向上,至少一个第二控制接触垫可以位于至少一个第一控制接触垫靠近显示基板的边界之间。在一些示例中,至少一条第一周边控制线可以位于第一条第二周边控制线和第二条第二周边控制线之间;在第二方向上,所述至少一个第一控制接触垫可以位于所述第一条第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫与所述第二条第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫之间。在另一些示例中,至少一条第一周边控制线可以位于第一条第二周边控制线和第二条第二周边控制线之间;所述第一条第二周边控制线位于所述至少一条第一周边控制线靠近所述显示基板的边界的一侧;在所述第二方向上,所述至少一个第一控制接触垫可以位于所述第二条第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫远离所述显示基板的边界的一侧。本示例通过将第一周边控制线连接的第一控制接触垫远离显示基板的边界设置,可以保证第一周边控制线的信号传输以及在第一边框区域内的合理排布。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第一边框区域还可以包括:位于弯折区域靠近显示区域一侧的第一子区域,第一子区域与第二边框区域连通。显示基板还可以包括:位于第一子区 域的多个静电释放电路,所述多个静电释放电路可以与多个栅极驱动电路邻近设置。所述多个静电释放电路可以沿第一方向排布为多行,每行静电释放电路包括沿第二方向设置的多个静电释放电路。所述至少一条第一周边信号线可以位于相邻两行静电释放电路之间。本示例通过在相邻行静电释放电路之间排布第一周边信号线,可以减少第一周边信号线的长度,有利于降低第一周边信号线的信号负载(loading)。

在一些示例中,子像素的发光元件的形状可以是矩形、菱形、五边形或六边形。一个像素单元包括三个子像素时,三个子像素的发光元件可以采用水平并列、竖直并列或品字方式排列;一个像素单元包括四个子像素时,四个子像素的发光元件可以采用水平并列、竖直并列或正方形方式排列。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。

在一些示例中,在一帧显示时间段,像素电路的工作过程可以至少包括:第一阶段、第二阶段、第三阶段以及第四阶段。
第一阶段,称为第一复位阶段。第二复位控制线RST2提供的第二复位控制信号RESET2为低电平信号,使第七像素晶体管T7和第八像素晶体管T8导通;第二扫描线GL2提供的第二扫描信号SCAN2为高电平信号,使第二像素晶体管T2导通。第八像素晶体管T8导通,使得第三初始信号线INIT3提供的第三初始信号被提供至第二节点N2。第七像素晶体管T7导通,使得第二初始信号线INIT2提供的第二初始信号被提供至第四 节点N4,对第四节点N4进行初始化。第一扫描线GL1提供的第一扫描信号SCAN1为高电平信号,第一复位控制线RST1提供的第一复位控制信号RESET1为高电平信号,发光控制线EML提供的发光控制信号EM为高电平信号,使第四像素晶体管T4、第一像素晶体管T1、第五像素晶体管T5和第六像素晶体管T6断开。此阶段发光元件EL不发光。
第二阶段,称为第二复位阶段。第一复位控制线RST1提供的第一复位控制信号RESET1为低电平信号,第一像素晶体管T1导通;第二扫描线GL2提供的第二扫描信号SCAN2为高电平信号,第二像素晶体管T2导通。第一像素晶体管T1和第二像素晶体管T2导通,使得第一初始信号线INIT1提供的第一初始信号线被提供至第一节点N1,对第一节点N1进行初始化。第二复位控制线RST2提供的第二复位控制信号RESET2为高电平信号,第一扫描线GL1提供的第一扫描信号SCAN1为高电平信号,发光控制线EML提供的发光控制信号EM为高电平信号,使得第七像素晶体管T7、第八像素晶体管T8、第四像素晶体管T4、第五像素晶体管T5和第六像素晶体管T6断开。此阶段发光元件EL不发光。
第三阶段,称为数据写入阶段或者阈值补偿阶段。第一扫描线GL1提供的第一扫描信号SCAN1为低电平信号,第四像素晶体管T4导通;第二扫描线GL2提供的第二扫描信号SCAN2为高电平信号,第二像素晶体管T2导通。此阶段存储电容Cst的第一电极为低电平,第三像素晶体管T3导通。第二像素晶体管T2、第四像素晶体管T4和第三像素晶体管T3导通,使得数据线DL输出的数据电压Vdata经过第二节点N2、导通的第三像素晶体管T3、第三节点N3和导通的第二像素晶体管T2提供至第一节点N1,并将数据线DL输出的数据电压Vdata与第三像素晶体管T3的阈值电压之差充入存储电容Cst,存储电容Cst的第一电极(即第一节点N1)的电压为Vdata-|Vth|,其中,Vdata为数据线DL输出的数据电压,Vth为第三像素晶体管T3的阈值电压。第一复位控制线RST1提供的第一复位控制信号RESET1为高电平信号,第二复位控制线RST2提供的第二复位控制信号RESET2为高电平信号,发光控制线EML提供的发光控制信号EM为高电平信号,使第一像素晶体管T1、第七像素晶体管T7、第八像素晶体管T8、第五像素晶体管T5和第六像素晶体管T6断开。
第四阶段,发光控制线EML提供的发光控制信号EM可以从高电平信号切换为低电平信号,使第五像素晶体管T5和第六像素晶体管T6导通。第二扫描线GL2提供的第二扫描信号SCAN2为低电平信号,使第二像素晶体管T2断开。第一扫描线GL1提供的第一扫描信号SCAN1、第一复位控制线RST1提供的第一复位控制信号RESET1和第二复位控制线RST2提供的第二复位控制信号RESET2为高电平信号,使第四像素晶体管T4、第一像素晶体管T1、第七像素晶体管T7和第八像素晶体管T8断开。第一电源线PL1输出的第一电压信号VDD可以通过导通的第五像素晶体管T5、第三像素晶体管T3和第六像素晶体管T6向发光元件EL的阳极提供驱动电压,驱动发光元件EL发光。
在像素电路的驱动过程中,流过第三像素晶体管T3的驱动电流由其栅极和第一极之间的电压差决定。由于第一节点N1的电压为Vdata-|Vth|,因而第三像素晶体管T3的驱动电流为:
I=K×(Vgs-Vth)2=K×[(VDD-Vdata+|Vth|)-Vth]2=K×[VDD-Vdata]2;
其中,I为流过第三像素晶体管T3的驱动电流,也就是驱动发光元件的驱动电流,K为常数,Vgs为第三像素晶体管T3的栅极和第一极之间的电压差,Vth为第三像素晶体管T3的阈值电压,Vdata为数据线DL输出的数据电压,VDD为第一电源线PL1输出的第一电压信号。
由上式中可以看到流经发光元件的电流与第三像素晶体管T3的阈值电压无关。因此,本实施例的像素电路可以较好地补偿第三像素晶体管T3的阈值电压。而且,本实施例提供的像素电路可以改善由于低频导致的显示不良情况,提高发光元件的显示效果。

在本示例中,多条第一周边控制线可以包括:第一电压控制线VGL1、第二电压控制线VGL2和第三电压控制线VGL3,其余周边控制线均为前述实施例所述的第二周边控制线。本示例中,第一条第二周边控制线可以为第二起始信号线NSTV,第二条第二周边控制线可以为第二扫描驱动输出线Nout,三条第一周边控制线可以位于第二起始信号线NSTV和第二扫描驱动输出线Nout之间。第二起始信号线NSTV和第二扫描驱动输出线Nout所传输信号较为稳定,对三条第一周边控制线所传输信号的影响较小。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。在另一些示例中,第一电压控制线VGL1、第二电压控制线VGL2和第三电压控制线VGL3可以位于其余第二周边控制线之间,例如可以位于第一扫描驱动输出线Gout和第一面板检测线PCD1之间,或者,可以位于第一复位驱动输出线Pout和第二复位驱动输出线Hout之间。在另一些示例中,第一电压控制线VGL1、第二电压控制线VGL2和第三电压控制线VGL3可以位于多条第二周边控制线靠近周边数据线的一侧,例如,可以位于第二面板检测线PCD2远离第一面板检测线PCD1的一侧。
在一些示例中,第一电压控制线VGL1、第二电压控制线VGL2和第三电压控制线VGL3沿着远离显示基板的边界的方向依次排布。本示例的多条第一周边控制线与显示基 板的边界之间的最小距离可以为第一电压控制线VGL1与显示基板的边界之间的最小距离。第一电压控制线VGL1与显示基板的边界之间的最小距离W2可以为第一电压控制线VGL1靠近显示基板的边界的边缘与显示基板的边界之间的距离。W2可以大于或等于1250微米,例如可以约为2067微米。

本示例通过将多条第一周边控制线(包括第一电压控制线VGL1、第二电压控制线VGL2和第三电压控制线VGL3)远离显示基板的边界设置,可以防止第一周边控制线发生信赖性腐蚀情况,有利于避免显示基板产生黑屏、黄屏等显示问题。

图8为本公开至少一实施例的第一边框区域的另一局部走线示意图。图8以第一边框区域靠近显示基板的左侧的边界XL的区域为例进行说明。在一些示例中,如图8所示,第一周边控制线L1与第一控制接触垫511连接,第一条第二周边控制线L2与第二控制接触垫512连接,第二条第二周边控制线L3与第二控制接触垫513连接。在第一信号接入区域B034内,第一控制接触垫511可以位于第二控制接触垫512和513之间。
本示例通过将第一周边控制线所连接的第一控制接触垫设置在相邻第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫之间,可以便于第一周边控制线和第二周边控制线的排布。关于本示例的其余说明可以参照图5所示实施例的描述,故于此不再赘述。
图9为本公开至少一实施例的第一边框区域的另一局部走线示意图。图9以第一边框区域靠近显示基板的左侧的边界XL的区域为例进行说明。在一些示例中,如图9所示,第一周边控制线L1与第一控制接触垫511连接,第一条第二周边控制线L2与第二控制接触垫512连接,第二条第二周边控制线L3与第二控制接触垫513连接。在第一信号接入区域B034内,第一控制接触垫511可以位于第二控制接触垫513远离显示基板的边界的一侧。
本示例通过将第一周边控制线所连接的第一控制接触垫设置在相邻的第二条第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫远离显示基板的边界的一侧,可以有利于保证第一周边控制线的信号传输,避免相邻的第二周边控制线传输的信号对第一周边控制线所传输信号产生干扰。关于本示例的其余说明可以参照图5所示实施例的描述,故于此不再赘述。
在另一些示例中,第一组周边控制线中的第一周边控制线所连接的第一控制接触垫可以位于其余所有第二周边控制线所连接的第二控制接触垫远离显示基板的边界的一侧。换言之,第一控制接触垫可以不插设在多个第二控制接触垫内,而是位于第一组周边控制线所连接的多个第二控制接触垫远离显示基板的边界的一侧。
图10为本公开至少一实施例的第一边框区域的另一局部走线示意图。图10以第一边框区域靠近显示基板的左侧的边界XL的区域为例进行说明。在一些示例中,如图10所示,第一周边控制线L1所连接的第三走线段44-3可以位于第二条第二周边控制线L3所连接的第三走线段44-3靠近弯折区域B02的一侧。第三走线段44-1、44-3、44-2可以沿着远离弯折区域B02的方向排布。本示例通过调整第二子区域内的走线排布,可以便于第一周边控制线与第一控制接触垫的连接,避免第二周边控制线传输的信号对第一周边控制线传输的信号产生干扰。关于本示例的其余说明可以参照图9所示实施例的描述,故于此不再赘述。
图11为本公开至少一实施例的第一边框区域的另一局部示意图。在一些示例中,第一子区域B01可以设置有多个静电释放电路。多个静电释放电路可以与第二边框区域B2内的多个栅极驱动电路邻近。比如,第一子区域B01可以包括与左边框区域B21连通的第一拐角区域、以及与右边框区域B22连通的第二拐角区域。多个静电释放电路可以位于第一拐角区域和第二拐角区域。图11以第一拐角区域的多个静电释放电路的排布为例进行说明。
在一些示例中,如图11所示,第一子区域B01内的多个静电释放电路可以沿第一方向D1排布为多行,每行静电释放电路可以包括沿第二方向D2排布的多个静电释放电路。例如,多个静电释放电路可以排布为第一行静电释放电路61a、第二行静电释放电路61b和第三行静电释放电路61c。第一行静电释放电路61a、第二行静电释放电路61b和第三行静电释放电路61c可以沿着远离显示区域的方向依次设置。
在一些示例中,第一周边控制线L1的位于第一子区域B01内的第一走线段41-1可以与多个静电释放电路连接。第一周边控制线L1的第一走线段41-1可以大致沿着显示区域的弧形边缘向第二边框区域的左边框区域B21延伸。第一周边控制线L1的第一走线段41-1可以位于第一行静电释放电路61a和第二行静电释放电路61b之间。相较于第一周边控制线从多行静电释放电路的同一侧绕过,本示例中第一周边控制线的走线方式可以适应于第一周边控制线远离显示基板的边界的位置,可以减少第一周边控制线的长度,从而有利于降低负载。
图12为本公开至少一实施例的静电释放电路的等效电路图。在一些示例中,如图12所示,静电释放电路可以与一条周边控制线CL连接,且配置为释放其连接的周边控制线CL中的静电。静电释放电路可以包括:第一释放晶体管ST1至第四释放晶体管ST4。第一释放晶体管ST1的第一极可以与第三电压控制线VGL1电连接,第一释放晶体管ST1的栅极和第二极与第二释放晶体管ST2的第一极电连接,第二释放晶体管ST2的栅极和第二极与第一静电释放电路对应的周边控制线CL电连接,第三释放晶体管ST3的第一极与第一静电释放电路对应的周边控制线CL电连接,第三释放晶体管ST3的栅极和第二极与第四释放晶体管ST4的第一极电连接,第四释放晶体管ST4的栅极和第二极与第四电压线VGH电连接。
在一种示例中,设置静电释放电路可以防止周边控制线中的静电积累而引起放电击穿导致损坏,以释放周边控制线中积累的静电,实现对周边控制线的保护。
在另一种示例中,静电释放电路可以包括两个释放晶体管,其中,每个释放晶体管的一极都和自身的栅极连接,从而形成等效的二极管连接;而两个“二极管”之间连接要保护的信号线,两个“二极管”的另外两端分别连接第四电压控制线VGH和第一电压控制线VGL1。由此,当信号线中因积累正电荷出现瞬时高压(如100V)时,其中一个“二极管”导通,释放信号线中的正电荷;而当信号线中因积累负电荷出现瞬时低压(如-100V)时,另一个“二极管”导通,释放信号线中的负电荷。
