In some embodiments, the light shielding layer 101, the active layer 103, the first metal layer 105, the second metal layer 107, and the first electrode layer 109 are respectively used as electrodes of the storage capacitor.
The driving circuit of the sub-pixel comprises an energy storage capacitor, the size of the energy storage capacitor directly influences the driving effect of the electroluminescent device, and the larger the capacitance of the energy storage capacitor is, the stronger the driving capability of the energy storage capacitor is. The larger the areas of the two electrodes oppositely arranged in the energy storage capacitor are, the larger the capacitance value is, and the increase of the area of the capacitor electrode increases the duty ratio of the driving area in the whole sub-pixel area, so that the duty ratio of the display area 10 is reduced, and the aperture ratio of the sub-pixel is reduced. The application adopts a mode that a plurality of capacitors are connected in parallel, so that the area of the capacitor electrode is reduced. Therefore, how to set the level of the electrodes in the functional region will be key to solving the above-described problem.
The functional area is provided with a plurality of layers which can be used as capacitance electrodes, including a shading layer 101, an active layer 103, a first metal layer 105, a second metal layer 107 and a first electrode layer 109. The capacitor electrode may be set according to the requirements of the application scenario, which is not limited herein. The remaining layers, buffer layer 102, gate insulating layer 104, dielectric layer 106, and passivation layer 108, can be used as insulating layers between the capacitor electrodes, and can form a thin film capacitor or parasitic capacitor with the electrodes on both sides thereof.

The first electrode of the first capacitor, the first electrode of the second capacitor and the first electrode of the third capacitor are connected through the through hole, and the second electrode of the first capacitor and the second electrode of the second capacitor are connected in parallel. Alternatively, the light shielding layer 101 and the active layer 103 serve as a first electrode and a second electrode of the first capacitor, the first metal layer 105 and the active layer 103 serve as a first electrode and a second electrode of the second capacitor, and the second metal layer 107 and the first electrode layer 109 serve as a first electrode and a second electrode of the third capacitor, respectively. The second electrode of the first capacitor and the second electrode of the second capacitor are common electrodes. The first electrode of the first capacitor, the first electrode of the second capacitor and the first electrode of the third capacitor are connected through the through hole, and the second electrode of the first capacitor and the second electrode of the third capacitor are connected in parallel. In addition, there may be other parallel connection modes of setting 3 capacitors, which will not be described herein.
It should be noted that, the display area 10 is used for disposing an electroluminescent device; the driving region 20 is used to provide a pixel driving circuit for driving the electroluminescent device of the display region 10. The pixel driving circuit comprises an energy storage capacitor and a plurality of thin film transistors, and specifically can comprise structures such as 6T1C (6 thin film transistors plus 1 energy storage capacitor), 7T1C (7 thin film transistors plus 1 energy storage capacitor) and the like. Accordingly, the driving region 20 may be divided into a transistor region D1 for setting a thin film transistor and a functional region D2 for setting a storage capacitor, as shown in fig. 2. In addition, other transistors in the transistor region, such as the transistor 31, the transistor 32, and the transistor 33, are shown in fig. 1. For ease of illustration, fig. 2 shows only one transistor, and in practice the transistor region may comprise a plurality of transistors.

By providing a plurality of common electrodes, 4 capacitances are provided in the functional area with 5 electrodes. The arrangement of the electrodes of the 4 capacitors is given in the application above. Under the condition that the capacitance is the same, the area of the capacitance electrode can be further reduced in comparison with the mode that 2 capacitors are connected in parallel or 3 capacitors are connected in parallel, so that the aperture opening ratio of the pixel is further improved.
In some embodiments, the second metal layer 107 and the active layer 103 are connected by a first via 201. Through the first via 201, a connection between the second electrodes of the 4 capacitances is achieved.

The light shielding layer 101 of the functional area and the metal shielding layer 302 of the thin film transistor may be connected or disconnected, which is not limited herein, and may be set according to an application scenario.

step S101: forming a light shielding layer and a metal shielding layer in the functional region and the transistor region respectively;
step S102: forming a buffer layer;
step S103: forming an active layer and an active layer in the functional region and the transistor region, respectively;
step S104: forming a gate insulating layer and patterning the gate insulating layer in the transistor region;
step S105: coating photoresist, forming a photoresist pattern on the active layer which does not need to be conductive, and conducting the active layer and part of the active layer which needs to be conductive;
step S106: removing the photoresist pattern, and forming a first metal layer and a grid electrode in the functional area and the transistor area respectively;
step S107: forming a dielectric layer;
step S108: forming a second metal layer and a source drain electrode respectively in the functional region and the transistor region;
step S109: a passivation layer and an electrode layer are formed.
The steps are described below with reference to fig. 5 to 12 and fig. 2.
In step S101, as shown in fig. 5, the light shielding layer 101 and the metal shielding layer 302 are formed in the functional region D2 and the transistor D1, respectively. In this embodiment, the light shielding layer 302 of the functional area is connected to the metal shielding layer 101 of the transistor area, and a disconnected structure may be used in the application. The light shielding layer 302 of the functional region and the metal shielding layer 101 of the transistor region may be made of the same material or may be made of different materials, and are not limited thereto.
In step S102, as shown in fig. 6, a buffer layer 102 is formed. The buffer layer 102 covers the entire drive region.
In step S103, as shown in fig. 7, the active layer 103 and the active layer 301 are formed in the functional region D2 and the transistor region D1, respectively, wherein the active layer 301 and the active layer 103 may be made of IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide ) material, the IGZO having a high electron mobility, and being a channel material in the thin film transistor, thereby improving the resolution of the display panel. The active layer 103 and the active layer 301 are not conductive.
In step S104, as shown in fig. 8, the gate insulating layer 104 is formed and the gate insulating layer of the transistor region D1 is patterned so that the pattern of the gate insulating layer is formed in the region of the active layer 301 where the conductor is not required and the region of the active layer 301 where the conductor is required is exposed.
In step S105, as shown in fig. 9, a photoresist pattern is formed on the active layer 301-1 that does not require conductive. Since the first metal layer 105 is required to be provided in the functional region D2, and if the first metal layer is formed first, the active layer 104 cannot be made conductive, and the active layer has a portion of the active layer 301-1 which does not require conductive, a photoresist is provided in the active layer 301-1 which does not require conductive before the conductive, and the conductive is performed before the first metal layer is formed. The photoresist pattern may be formed by a general etching method, and the photoresist pattern may be remained only in the active layer 301-1 where no conductor is required, or may be exposed by a Half Tone Mask (Half Tone Mask) process, and the photoresist pattern may be remained thicker in the active layer 301-1 where no conductor is required, and thinner in the remaining regions, so that adverse effects of the conductor on other regions may be reduced.

Thereafter, the conductive active layer 103 and a part of the active layer 301 to be conductive are obtained, and the conductive active layer 301-2 and the non-conductive active layer 301-1 shown in fig. 9, and the conductive active layer 103 are obtained. The indium gallium zinc oxide may be electrically conductive by using a gas such as H2, he, or NH 3.
In step S106, as shown in fig. 10, the photoresist pattern in step S105 is removed, and the first metal layer 105 and the gate electrode 303 are formed in the functional region and the transistor region, respectively. The first metal layer 105 and the gate electrode 303 are made of the same material, and may be a metal layer with excellent conductivity and good light shielding property, such as a Mo, cu, al film layer or a metal layer. In fabrication, PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition ) may be used to deposit the gate and first metal layer and etch to form the desired pattern.
In step S107, as shown in fig. 11, a dielectric layer 106 is formed. At this time, a via 201 connecting the second metal layer and the first metal layer may be formed.
In step S108, as shown in fig. 12, a second metal layer 107 and a source drain 304 are formed in the functional region and the transistor region, respectively. The second metal layer 107 and the source drain electrode 304 may use the same metal material. The second metal layer 107 and the source drain electrode 304 may be connected or disconnected according to the application scenario, which is not limited herein.
In step S109, as shown in fig. 2, a passivation layer 108 and an electrode layer 109 are formed. After forming the passivation layer 108, a via 203 connecting the electrode layer 109 and the first metal layer 105 may be formed. The electrode layer includes a first electrode layer of the functional region and a second electrode layer of the transistor region, and the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer may be connected to each other or disconnected, not limited herein.
