Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a display panel according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a display process of a low gray level image in fig. 1 in a display period. Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a display panel, the display panel 100 includes a plurality of first color sub-pixels 2, the first color sub-pixels 2 include a first color sub-pixel a 21 and a first color sub-pixel b 22;
when the display panel 100 displays at least one low gray scale frame 1, referring to fig. 2, the low gray scale frame includes a first stage S1 and a second stage S2, wherein the first color sub-pixel a 21 of the first stage S1 has an initial brightness a, and the first color sub-pixel b 22 has an initial brightness L'; the second stage S2 shows that the first color sub-pixel a 21 has the first brightness B and the first color sub-pixel B22 has the second brightness L;

the gray scale value range of the low gray scale is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to X, wherein X is a positive integer.
It is understood that the display panel 100 further comprises a display area AA and a non-display area BB disposed around the display area AA, and only the number of the low gray scale pictures 1 and the number of the first color sub-pixels 2 are schematically shown in fig. 1. The number of the low gray-scale frames 1 is not specifically limited, and the display area AA of the display panel 100 displays the low gray-scale frames in another embodiment of the invention. In some alternative embodiments, the display panel further comprises a second color sub-pixel and a third color sub-pixel, not shown in fig. 1. The numbers of the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the second color sub-pixel b 22 in the low gray scale picture 1 are only schematically illustrated.
Before the brightness adjustment, i.e. the first stage S1 of the low gray scale picture, the first color sub-pixel a has the initial brightness a, the first color sub-pixel b 22 has the initial brightness L ', the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 is set to m, the number of the first color sub-pixels b 22 is set to n, and it can be known that the overall brightness K of the low gray scale picture 1 in the first stage S1 is m × a + n × L ', and in some preferred embodiments, the initial brightness a of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is equal to the initial brightness L ' of the first color sub-pixel b 22; in the second stage S2, the luminances of the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel B22 in the low gray scale image 1 are adjusted, after the adjustment, the first color sub-pixel a 21 has a first luminance B, the first color sub-pixel B22 has a second luminance L, it should be noted that the first luminance B is smaller than the second luminance L, the first luminance B is smaller than the initial luminance a of the first color sub-pixel a 21, and the second luminance L is larger than the initial luminance L' of the first color sub-pixel B22, that is, after the luminance is adjusted, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21 decreases, and the luminance of the first color sub-pixel B22 increases. The total luminance of the low-gradation screen 1 after the adjustment is K, which is m × B + n × L, and thus m × a + n × L' is m × B + n × L.
On one hand, the total brightness of the low gray scale picture 1 is unchanged, so that the display effect can be ensured; on the other hand, the brightness of the first color sub-pixel A21 is reduced, and the change of the brightness is not easy to be sensed visually, but the brightness of the first color sub-pixel B22 is increased, and then the higher gray scale is needed for driving, and the color cast phenomenon is not obvious under the high gray scale display, so that the problem of low gray scale color cast is solved.
In some alternative embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 2, the number of first-color sub-pixels a 21 in the low-grayscale picture 1 is equal to the number of first-color sub-pixels b 22.
The display panel 100 of the present invention at least includes a low gray scale frame 1, and at this time, brightness adjustment needs to be performed on the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 in the low gray scale frame 1.
The number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 is m, the number of the first color sub-pixels B22 is n, and it can be known from the above that the overall brightness is unchanged in the first stage S1 and the second stage S2 of the low gray scale picture 1, i.e., K ═ m × a + n × L ═ m × B + n × L, and m × (a-B) ═ n × x (L-L ') is obtained, it can be understood that the brightness decrease amount (a-B) of the first color sub-pixels a 21 is equal to the brightness increase amount (L-L') of the first color sub-pixels B22, and the overall brightness is ensured to be unchanged, i.e., m ═ n is obtained, i.e., the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 is equal to the number of the first color sub-pixels B22 in the low gray scale picture 1.
The number of the first color sub-pixels A21 in the low gray scale picture 1 is equal to the number of the first color sub-pixels B22, the total brightness of the low gray scale picture 1 is unchanged, and the display effect can be ensured.
In some alternative embodiments, referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of another display panel provided in the present invention. In the second phase of the low gray scale picture 1, the area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is larger than that of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 are alternately arranged.
Referring to the arrangement rule of the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the second color sub-pixel b 22 in fig. 3, the area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is larger than that of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and it is required to satisfy that the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 are alternately arranged. At this time, of course, the first luminance B of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is less than the second luminance L of the first color sub-pixel B22, the first luminance B is less than the initial luminance a of the first color sub-pixel a 21, and the second luminance L is greater than the initial luminance L' of the first color sub-pixel B22.
The first color sub-pixel A21 and the first color sub-pixel B22 are alternately arranged, so that the light and shade alternation is more uniform, and the problem of uneven low-gray-scale display is further improved.
It can be understood that the brightness of the first color sub-pixel a 21 with a larger area is reduced and is not easy to be found by human eyes, but after the brightness of the first color sub-pixel b 22 with a smaller area is increased, the driving is performed by using a higher gray scale, the phenomenon of uneven display of the low gray scale can be improved without a Demura process, and the influence on the service life of the sub-pixels is very small.
In some alternative embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 3, the emission color of the first color sub-pixel 2 is green.
In the second phase of the low gray scale picture 1, the area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is larger than that of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 are alternately arranged, while the light emitting color of the first color sub-pixel 2 is green, when the picture is displayed, the contribution of the green sub-pixel to the brightness is the largest, and the change of the brightness of the green sub-pixel relative to the red sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel is more easily recognized by human eyes.
With continued reference to fig. 3, the current density of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is less than the current density of the first color sub-pixel b 22 during the second phase of the low grayscale screen 1.
In the second phase of the low gray scale picture 1, the area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is larger than the area of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 are alternately arranged, when the voltages provided to the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 in the low gray scale picture 1 are the same, since the area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is larger than the area of the first color sub-pixel b 22, the current density of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is smaller than the current density of the first color sub-pixel b 22, the current density is increased, and the problem of uneven low gray scale display can be further improved.
In some alternative embodiments, when the gray scale value of the low gray scale frame 1 is 32, the ratio of the current density of the first color sub-pixel a 21 to the current density of the first color sub-pixel b 22 is 1: 8, at this time, the ratio of the first luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21 to the second luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22 is 1:4, the gray scale of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is 20, and the gray scale of the first color sub-pixel b 22 is 40, so that the first color sub-pixel b 22 needs to be driven by a higher gray scale, thereby improving the problem of low gray scale display non-uniformity.
In some alternative embodiments, referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of another display process of the low gray scale image in fig. 1 within one display period.
The first brightness is zero, and the second brightness is calculated according to the following method:
wherein, L is the second luminance, L' is the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b, m is the number of the first color sub-pixels a in the second stage of the low gray scale picture, n is the number of the first color sub-pixels b in the second stage of the low gray scale picture, and a is the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixels a.
Fig. 4 shows that the first color sub-pixel a 21 has the initial luminance a, the first
color sub-pixel b 22 has the initial luminance L 'in the first stage of the low
gray scale picture 1, the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 is set to m, the number of the first
color sub-pixels b 22 is set to n, and it can be known that the overall luminance K ═ m × a + n × L' of the low
gray scale picture 1 in the first stage S1. the black filling of the first color sub-pixel a 21 in the second stage indicates that it does not emit light in the black state, that is, the first luminance is zero, the number of the first color sub-pixels corresponding to light emission is reduced, the overall luminance after the first color sub-pixel a 21 does not emit light remains K, but K ═ n × L, and it can be known that K ═ m × a + n × L ═ n × L
On one hand, the total brightness of the low gray scale picture 1 is unchanged, so that the display effect can be ensured; on the other hand, the first color sub-pixel A21 does not emit light, and the change of brightness is not easy to be sensed visually, but the brightness of the first sub-pixel B22 is increased to the same extent as the brightness of the first color sub-pixel A21, and after the brightness of the first color sub-pixel B22 is increased, a higher gray scale is required to be used for driving, and the phenomenon of color cast is not obvious under the high gray scale display, so that the problem of low gray scale color cast is solved.
In some alternative embodiments, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of another display panel provided in the present invention. The display panel 100 at least includes a high gray scale frame 3 when displaying, and the gray scale value range of the high gray scale is greater than X and less than or equal to Y, wherein Y is a positive integer, and Y is the highest gray scale of the display panel.
Fig. 5 schematically shows that the display panel 100 includes the number of the high gray level frames 3, and here, the number of the high gray level frames 3 is not specifically limited, it can be understood that the gray level of the low gray level is X, and the range of the gray level is greater than X and less than or equal to Y, which is the high gray level, and here, the gray level of the high gray level is not specifically limited, and the gray level can be set according to the actual display frame.
In the case of displaying a high-grayscale image, since the luminance of the first color sub-pixel 2 itself is relatively high, the mura phenomenon is not noticeable, and therefore, it is not necessary to adjust the luminance of the first color sub-pixel 2 in the high-grayscale image, and the amount of data calculation can be reduced.
In some alternative embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 5, the current density of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is equal to the current density of the first color sub-pixel b 22 in the high grayscale frame 3.
The area of the first color sub-pixel a 21 in the high gray-scale picture 3 is equal to the area of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the voltages applied to the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 in the low gray-scale picture 1 are the same, and the current density of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is equal to the current density of the first color sub-pixel b 22, so that the luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is equal to the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22. Since the luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21 and the first color sub-pixel b 22 in the high gray scale picture 3 is relatively high, the mura phenomenon is not obvious, and therefore, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel 2 in the high gray scale picture is not required to be adjusted.
In some alternative embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 1 and 2, the range of gray scale values for the low gray scale is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 128.
It should be noted that the gray scale value of the low gray scale image is any value between 0 and 128, and may be set according to the actually displayed image, and the gray scale value of the low gray scale image is not specifically limited herein.
When the gray value of the low gray scale picture is displayed between 0 and 128, the brightness of the first sub-pixel A21 and the first sub-pixel B22 in the low gray scale picture is adjusted in the second stage, namely the brightness of the first sub-pixel A21 is reduced, the brightness of the first sub-pixel B22 is improved at the same time, and the problem of low gray scale color cast is solved.

gray scale image 1 is K
In the first stage S1, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21 is equal to the luminance of the first
color sub-pixel b 22, and thus L: (m + n): n is known.
In fig. 4, the ratio of the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 to the number of the first color sub-pixels b 22 is 1:1, that is, in the second phase S2, 1/2 number of the first color sub-pixels 2 of the low gray scale picture 1 do not emit light, but the luminance of the n first color sub-pixels b 22 emitting light is 2 times of the initial luminance. Referring to fig. 4, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a may be equal to the sum of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a, 1/2 of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21a, and 1/2 of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21b, and the luminance of the other first color sub-pixels b 22 is calculated according to this method, so as to keep the total luminance of the low gray scale picture 1 in the second stage S2 unchanged, the second luminance L is 2 times of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the luminance increase of the first color sub-pixel b 22 requires a higher gray scale to drive, thereby improving the problem of low gray scale color cast.
In fig. 7, the ratio of the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 to the number of the first color sub-pixels b 22 is 2:1, that is, 2/3 number of the first color sub-pixels 2 in the second phase S2 of the low gray scale picture 1 do not emit light, but the luminance of the n first color sub-pixels b 22 emitting light is 3 times of the initial luminance. Referring to fig. 7, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a may be equal to the sum of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a, the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21a, and the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel a 21b, and the luminance of the other first color sub-pixels b 22 is also calculated according to this method, so that the total luminance of the low gray scale picture 1 in the second stage S2 is kept unchanged, the second luminance L is 3 times the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the luminance increase of the first color sub-pixel b 22 requires a higher gray scale to drive, thereby improving the problem of low gray scale color cast.
In fig. 9, the ratio of the number of the first color sub-pixels a 21 to the number of the first color sub-pixels b 22 is 1:2, that is, 1/3 number of the first color sub-pixels 2 in the second phase S2 of the low gray scale picture 1 do not emit light, but the luminance of the n first color sub-pixels b 22 emitting light is 3/2 times its initial luminance. In fig. 9, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a may be equal to the sum of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22a and the initial luminance of 1/2 the first color sub-pixel a 21a, and the luminance of the other first color sub-pixels b 22 is calculated according to this method, so that the total luminance of the low gray scale picture 1 in the second stage S2 is kept unchanged, the second luminance L is 3/2 times of the initial luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22, and the luminance increase of the first color sub-pixel b 22 requires a higher gray scale to drive, thereby improving the problem of low gray scale color cast.

In some alternative embodiments, referring to fig. 25, fig. 25 is a schematic view of another display process of the low gray scale image in fig. 1 within one display period.
In the second stage S2 of the low gray scale frame 1, the first color sub-pixel b emits light in the display frame part of different frames, and the ith frame between every two adjacent frames is at least partially different from the first color sub-pixel emitting light in the ith ± 1 frame, where i is a positive integer greater than 1.
The first color sub-pixel b 22 is filled with different patterns in fig. 25 to indicate light emission and non-light emission in different frames, although the first color sub-pixel a 21 is non-light emission in the second stage S2 of the low gray scale picture 1.
Using the Dithering technique, fig. 12 only takes 2 frames of the second stage S2 of the low-grayscale frame 1 as an example, a portion of the first-color sub-pixel b 22 in the 1 st frame does not emit light (e.g., the first-color sub-pixel b 22a in fig. 12), wherein a portion of the first-color sub-pixel b 22 emits light (e.g., the first-color sub-pixel b 22b in fig. 12), and the first-color sub-pixel b 22a in the 2 nd frame emits light but the first-color sub-pixel b does not emit light, where the first-color sub-pixel 2 in the 1 st frame and the first-color sub-pixel b in the 2 nd frame emit light are completely different. Of course, the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22 emitting light is increased to the same extent as the luminance of the first color sub-pixel b 22 not emitting light, and a higher gray level is required for driving after the luminance is increased, so that the problem of low gray level display unevenness can be solved.
The embodiment is a dithering display, the image is modified by randomly adding the luminous first color sub-pixel B22 between the adjacent sub-pixels by using visual effect during the switching process between different frames, the dithering display does not increase the total number of the sub-pixels, but randomly selects and increases the luminous number of the first color sub-pixel B22, thereby improving the display quality, and simultaneously, the power consumption can be saved by not driving all the first color sub-pixels B22 to emit light in each frame.
