Detailed Description
The present application will be described in further detail with reference to the following drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant invention and not restrictive of the invention. It should be noted that, for convenience of description, only the portions related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.
Referring to FIG. 1A, a schematic block diagram of one embodiment of a contoured display panel of the present application is shown.
The special-shaped display panel of the embodiment comprises a display area and a non-display area. The outline of the display area includes at least one curved edge 110.
The irregular display panel includes a plurality of data lines (not shown) extending in the first direction D1 and a plurality of scan lines (not shown) extending in the second direction D2 and insulated from the data lines.
The irregular-shaped display panel includes a plurality of display pixel rows, each of which includes display pixels arranged along the second direction D2.
Wherein at least one of the plurality of display pixel rows is adjacent to the arc edge 110. For example, FIG. 1A schematically illustrates a first row of display pixels adjacent to a curved edge 110. Here, the term adjacent means, for example, that if the minimum distance from the pixel row to the arc edge 110 is smaller than the minimum distance from the arc edge 110 to other pixel rows in the shaped display panel, the pixel row is the pixel row adjacent to the arc edge 110 in the shaped display panel.
And a first display pixel is arranged in a display pixel row adjacent to the arc edge, the distance between the first display pixel and the arc edge is smaller than the distance between any other display pixel in the display pixel row and the arc edge, and the area of the first display pixel is larger than that of any other display pixel in the display pixel row.
Specifically, referring to FIG. 1B, there is shown a row of display pixels adjacent to the curved edge 110 of the shaped display panel of FIG. 1A. In the display pixel row, there is a first display pixel P1, the first display pixel P1 has a smaller pitch to the arc edge than any other display pixel (for example, the display pixel P2 shown in fig. 1B) in the display pixel row, and the area of the first display pixel P1 is larger than that of any other display pixel P2 in the display pixel row. That is, in the display pixel row adjacent to the arc edge, the area of the display pixel closest to the arc edge (i.e., the first display pixel P1) is larger than the area of the other display pixels P2 in the display pixel row. In this way, it is avoided that the display pixel adjacent to the arc edge (i.e., the first display pixel P1 shown in fig. 1B) is too small, which may result in too large manufacturing process deviation. Specifically, for example, if the irregular-shaped display pixels are only fabricated in a small area adjacent to the arc edge, the color filters, the pixel electrodes, and the like in the irregular-shaped display pixels are correspondingly smaller, so that the requirement of fabrication accuracy is significantly increased, and accordingly, the fabrication yield and the fabrication efficiency of the irregular-shaped display panel are significantly reduced.
The special-shaped display panel of the embodiment reduces the requirement on the manufacturing precision by properly increasing the size of the display pixels in the special-shaped area, and is favorable for improving the manufacturing yield and the manufacturing efficiency of the special-shaped display panel.
It should be noted that, although fig. 1A and 1B show that one display pixel includes three sub-pixels, the three sub-pixels are alternately arranged in the second direction D2, and the sub-pixels are continuously arranged in the first direction D1, this is merely illustrative and is intended to illustrate the size relationship between the display pixel near the arc edge and other display pixels. Those skilled in the art can set the number of sub-pixels included in one display pixel and the arrangement of the sub-pixels in the display panel according to the requirements of the practical application scenario. Therefore, no matter what sub-pixel arrangement is adopted by the irregular display panel, and no matter whether one display pixel comprises several sub-pixels, the display panel is considered to fall within the protection scope of the present embodiment as long as the display panel comprises the above technical features described in the present embodiment.
Furthermore, although the outline of the display area of the special-shaped display panel shown in fig. 1A includes only one arc edge, this is only schematic and is intended to illustrate the relative positional relationship between the arc edge and the display pixel adjacent thereto and the dimensional relationship between the display pixel adjacent thereto and the other display pixels in the special-shaped display panel. The number of arc edges included in the outline of the display area of the display panel can be set by those skilled in the art according to the requirements of the actual application scenario. Therefore, no matter the contour of the display area of the irregular display panel includes several arc edges, the contour is considered to fall within the protection scope of the present embodiment as long as the above technical features described in the present embodiment are included.
In some alternative implementations of this embodiment, the minimum distance between any point on at least a portion of the outline of the first display pixel and the curved edge is uniform. Specifically, referring to fig. 1A, in the first display pixel, the minimum distance between any point and the arc edge 110 is uniform in the outline of the sub-pixel P11 closest to the arc edge 110. That is, the contour of the sub-pixel P11 and the arc edge 110 can be considered to be "parallel" to each other. Therefore, the outlines of all the display pixels in the special-shaped display panel are consistent with the outline of the display area, so that the sawtooth phenomenon of the special-shaped display panel close to the edge of the arc line segment is further reduced, and the display continuity is improved.
In addition, in some alternative implementations, the areas of the sub-pixels included in the first display pixel are equal. The areas of the sub-pixels in the first display pixel are equal, so that the color cast phenomenon caused by the unequal areas of the sub-pixels during display can be avoided, and the display effect is further improved.
Referring to fig. 2A, a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of the special-shaped display panel of the present application is shown.
Similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 1A, the special-shaped display panel of the present embodiment also includes a display area and a non-display area. The outline of the display area includes at least one curved edge 210.
The irregular display panel includes a plurality of data lines (not shown) extending in the first direction D1 and a plurality of scan lines (not shown) extending in the second direction D2 and insulated from the data lines.
The irregular-shaped display panel includes a plurality of display pixel rows, each of which includes display pixels arranged along the second direction D2. Wherein at least one of the plurality of display pixel rows is adjacent to the arc edge 210. And a first display pixel is arranged in a display pixel row adjacent to the arc edge, the distance between the first display pixel and the arc edge is smaller than the distance between any other display pixel in the display pixel row and the arc edge, and the area of the first display pixel is larger than that of any other display pixel in the display pixel row.
Unlike the embodiment shown in fig. 1A, in the irregular-shaped display panel of the present embodiment, in the same first display pixel, each sub-pixel has at least one sub-pixel adjacent to it in the first direction.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2B, a schematic block diagram of a first display pixel in the irregular display panel shown in fig. 2A is shown.
The first display pixel shown in fig. 2B includes a sub-pixel P21, a sub-pixel P22, and a sub-pixel P23. As can be seen from fig. 2B, in the first display pixel, the sub-pixel P21 is adjacent to the sub-pixel P22 in the first direction D1, and the sub-pixel P22 is adjacent to the sub-pixel P23 in the first direction D1. In this way, the sub-pixels respectively adjacent to the sub-pixel P21, the sub-pixel P22 and the sub-pixel P23 in the first direction D1 may exist in the pixel row adjacent to the pixel row where the first display pixel is located, so that the arrangement of the data line extending along the first direction D1 in the special-shaped display panel may not change the extending direction due to the existence of the special-shaped display pixel (i.e., the first display pixel), thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process of the special-shaped display panel, and facilitating the manufacturing yield and the manufacturing efficiency of the special-shaped display panel.
In addition, in some optional implementations of this embodiment, in the same first display pixel, each sub-pixel has at least one sub-pixel adjacent to it in the second direction. For example, in fig. 2B, the sub-pixel P21 and the sub-pixel P22 are adjacent to each other in the second direction D2, and the sub-pixel P22 and the sub-pixel P23 are adjacent to each other in the second direction D2. In this way, since the sub-pixels in the first display pixel are adjacent to each other in the second direction D2, although the shape of each sub-pixel in the first display pixel is different from the shape of other display pixels, the routing manner of the scan line is not changed, the manufacturing process of the special-shaped display panel is further simplified, and the manufacturing yield and the manufacturing efficiency of the special-shaped display panel are facilitated.
Referring to fig. 3A, a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of the special-shaped display panel of the present application is shown.
Similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 2A, the special-shaped display panel of the present embodiment also includes a display area and a non-display area. The outline of the display area includes at least one curved edge 310.
The irregular display panel includes a plurality of data lines (not shown) extending in the first direction D1 and a plurality of scan lines (not shown) extending in the second direction D2 and insulated from the data lines.
The irregular-shaped display panel includes a plurality of display pixel rows, each of which includes display pixels arranged along the second direction D2. Wherein at least one of the plurality of display pixel rows is adjacent to the arc edge 210. And a first display pixel is arranged in a display pixel row adjacent to the arc edge, the distance between the first display pixel and the arc edge is smaller than the distance between any other display pixel in the display pixel row and the arc edge, and the area of the first display pixel is larger than that of any other display pixel in the display pixel row.
In addition, in the irregular-shaped display panel of the embodiment, in the same first display pixel, each sub-pixel has at least one sub-pixel adjacent to the sub-pixel in the first direction. And in the same first display pixel, each sub-pixel also has at least one sub-pixel adjacent to the sub-pixel in the second direction.
Unlike the embodiment shown in fig. 2A, in this embodiment, each sub-pixel in the same first display pixel is adjacent to the same arc edge.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3B, a schematic diagram of the relative position relationship between each sub-pixel in the first display pixel and the arc edge 310 is shown.
As can be seen from fig. 3B, the sub-pixel P31, the sub-pixel P32 and the sub-pixel P33 in the first display pixel are all adjacent to the arc edge 310. That is, in the contour of each of the sub-pixel P31, the sub-pixel P32 and the sub-pixel P33 in the first display pixel, there is an arc edge, and the minimum distance between any point on the arc edge and the arc edge 310 of the irregular-shaped display panel is uniform. In this way, since the sub-pixels in the same first display pixel are adjacent to the same arc edge, the continuity of the display effect near the arc edge is better, and color cast and the like possibly caused by uneven distribution of the sub-pixels of each color at the arc edge are not easily caused during display. In addition, in the embodiment, in the outline of each sub-pixel of the first display pixel, except for the edge adjacent to the arc edge 310, other edges may be straight line segments, so that the shape of each sub-pixel of the first display pixel is simpler and is more convenient to manufacture, which is beneficial to further improving the manufacturing yield and the manufacturing efficiency of the special-shaped display panel.
In the embodiments of the present application, the arc edge in the special-shaped display panel may be a minor arc, that is, the angle of the central angle corresponding to the arc edge is less than 180 °.
In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, one display pixel may include three sub-pixels, for example, a first sub-pixel, a second sub-pixel, and a third sub-pixel. The three sub-pixels included in the same display pixel have different colors, for example, they may be one of red, green and blue.
The special-shaped display panel of each embodiment of the application can be a liquid crystal display panel.
Fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of the special-shaped display panel of the present application when it is a liquid crystal display panel.
The liquid crystal display panel includes an array substrate 410, a color filter substrate 420, and a liquid crystal layer 430 formed between the array substrate 410 and the color filter substrate 420.
A plurality of pixel electrodes 411 and at least one common electrode 412 may be formed on the array substrate 410. Accordingly, a plurality of color filter units 421 may be formed on the color filter substrate 420. The color filter unit 412 defines a pixel region of each sub-pixel. Each pixel electrode 411 may be formed in a pixel region of each sub-pixel. When a display signal is applied to each pixel electrode 411 through a data line (not shown in the figure), liquid crystal molecules may be deflected by an electric field formed between the pixel electrode 411 and the common electrode 412, thereby realizing display of a predetermined screen.
The application also discloses a display device which comprises the special-shaped display panel of any one of the embodiments. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the display device of the present embodiment may include some other known structures, such as an integrated circuit chip for providing display signals to the display device, besides the above-mentioned special-shaped display panel. Such well-known structures will not be further described in order not to obscure the focus of the present application.
The display device of the present application may be any device including the above-mentioned special-shaped display panel, including but not limited to a display of a cellular phone, a tablet computer, a display applied to an intelligent wearable device, a display applied to a vehicle such as an automobile, and the like.
