Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting thereof. It should be further noted that, for convenience of description, only some, but not all of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
As mentioned in the background art, since users pursue high-resolution, narrow-bezel display panels. With the increasing resolution of the display panel, the number of pixel units in the display area increases, resulting in an increasing number of signal lines, and the area required for the wiring area of the connection lines also increases gradually. The technology of arranging part of fan-out wires in a display area (fanout in AA, FIAA) is adopted, so that all fan-out wires are prevented from being sequentially arranged on a lower frame, and the frame of the display panel is reduced. However, the inventor has found that, through research, there is a coupling capacitance between the data voltage transmitted on the fan-out wiring in the display area and the pixel driving circuit of the display panel, resulting in a problem of uneven display of the display panel. The embodiment provides a method for reducing the coupling effect of signals in a pixel driving circuit on data voltages by reducing the coupling capacitance between the data voltages transmitted on fan-out wires of a display area and the pixel driving circuit of a display panel, so as to reduce the difference between the coupling degree of the transmission paths of the data voltages of the pixel driving circuits at all positions and a first structure, reduce the difference between the writing degree of the data voltages of the pixel driving circuits at all positions, improve the display uniformity, reduce the brightness difference and improve the stability of the data voltages.
Based on the above technical problems, the present embodiment proposes the following solutions:
fig. 1 is a schematic top view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the invention. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a partial cross-sectional structure along AA' in fig. 1 of a display panel according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 1, a display panel 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a substrate 1, a pixel driving circuit 2, a plurality of data lines 4, a plurality of patch cords 5, and a shielding structure 6.
The pixel driving circuit 2 is arranged on one side of the substrate 1, the pixel driving circuit 2 comprises a first structure 3, and the pixel driving circuit 2 comprises a first type pixel driving circuit 21; a plurality of data lines 4 electrically connected to the pixel driving circuit 2; the plurality of patch cords 5 are correspondingly and electrically connected with at least part of the data lines 4; the shielding structure 6 is located between the patch cord 5 and the first structure 3 in the first type of pixel drive circuit 21.
Specifically, the pixel driving circuit 2 is configured to drive the light emitting structure of the display panel 100 to emit light, so that the display panel 100 displays a picture. The first structure 3 may include a conductive line structure connected to a driving module of the pixel driving circuit 2, a conductive line structure connected to a light emitting structure, or an electrode structure connected to a light emitting structure, and the like, and the first structure 3 may be a part of an active layer or a part of a conductive layer, and the like, without being limited thereto.
The first type of pixel driving circuit 21 may be a pixel driving circuit 2 adjacent to the patch cord 5, e.g. the front projection of the first type of pixel driving circuit 21 on the substrate 1 may be adjacent to or at least partially overlapping the front projection of the patch cord 5 on the substrate 1.
The plurality of data lines 4 may extend in the first direction Y and be arranged in the second direction X. The data line 4 is used to transmit a data voltage to the pixel driving circuit 2. The patch cord 5 and the data cord 4 are used for transmitting data voltages. The patch cord 5 may transmit the data voltage output from the driving chip to the data line 4 connected to the patch cord 5. The display panel may include a display area AA. The pixel driving circuits 2 may be arranged in an array and located in the display area AA, and fig. 1 illustrates only a part of the pixel driving circuits 2 by way of example. The patch cord 5 may be located in the display area AA. The first end of the patch cord 5 is connected with the corresponding data line 4; along the extending direction perpendicular to the data line 4, the second end of the patch cord 5 is close to the data line 4 located in the middle position of the display area AA relative to the first end, so that the space occupied by the fan-out wiring of the non-display area along the first direction Y is reduced, and the narrow frame is facilitated to be realized.
Before the patch cord 5 is not introduced, the data lines 4 at each position are coupled to the first structures 3 of the corresponding pixel driving circuits 2 to the same extent. When the patch cord 5 is introduced, the shielding structure 6 is not provided, the coupling degree between the first structure 3 of the pixel driving circuit 2 near the patch cord 5 and the patch cord 5 is relatively large, the coupling degree between the first structure of the pixel driving circuit 2 far from the patch cord 5 and the patch cord 5 is small, even if there is no coupling, when the data voltage is written one line by one line, for example, when the data voltage is written to one line of the pixel driving circuit 2 overlapped with the second wire segment 52 of the patch cord 5, the second wire segment 52 of the data voltage of the pixel driving circuit 2 is coupled with the first structure 3 of the pixel driving circuit 2, when the data voltage transmission path of the data voltage of the pixel driving circuit 2 does not include the patch cord 5, the coupling degree between the data voltage transmission path of the pixel driving circuit 2 and the first structure 3 of the pixel driving circuit 2 is different, for example, when the data voltage is written to one line of the pixel driving circuit 2 of the pixel driving circuit of each position, and the data voltage transmission degree between the data driving circuit of each position and the data driving circuit of each position is not consistent. The shielding structure 6 may be a conductive structure, and may implement a signal shielding function. The shielding structure 6 is arranged between the patch cord 5 and the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21, so that signal coupling between the patch cord 5 and the first structure 3 can be effectively shielded, interference of electric signals transmitted on the first structure 3 on data voltages transmitted on the patch cord 5 is reduced, difference of coupling degrees of data voltage transmission paths of the pixel driving circuits at all positions and the first structure is reduced, difference of data voltage writing degrees of the pixel driving circuits at all positions is reduced, the coupling degrees of the data voltage transmission paths of the pixel driving circuits 2 at all positions and the first structure 3 tend to be consistent, the data voltage writing degrees of the pixel driving circuits 2 at all positions tend to be consistent, the problem of oblique bright lines is solved, the problem of uneven display of the display panel 100 is well solved, and accordingly the display effect of the display panel 100 is improved. The arrangement is such that the data voltage transmitted on the patch cord 5 is relatively stable, so that the potential of the control end (for example, the gate) of the driving module of the pixel driving circuit 2 connected with the patch cord 5 is relatively stable, and the light emitting structure is driven to emit light stably.
The display panel 100 provided in this embodiment effectively shields signal coupling between the patch cord 5 transmitting data voltages and the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 by disposing the shielding structure 6 between the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 and the patch cord 5, thereby reducing the influence of the electrical signal on the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the data voltages transmitted on the patch cord 5, reducing the difference between the coupling degree of the data voltages of the pixel driving circuits at each position and the coupling degree of the first structure, reducing the difference between the data voltage writing degree of the pixel driving circuits at each position, enabling the coupling degree of the data voltages of the pixel driving circuits 2 at each position and the coupling degree of the first structure 3 to be consistent, enabling the data voltage writing degree of the pixel driving circuits 2 at each position to be consistent, enabling the uniformity of light emission of each light emitting structure of the display panel 100 to be better, and improving the display effect of the display panel 100.
Optionally, the orthographic projection of the shielding structure 6 on the substrate is located between the orthographic projection of the second wire segment 52 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the substrate 1, so as to effectively shield the coupling between the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21, and reduce the influence of the signal on the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the data voltage on the second wire segment 52.
Optionally, fig. 3a is a schematic structural diagram of a layout of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 3b is a schematic structural diagram of an active layer of the layout of the display panel shown in fig. 3a according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 3c is a schematic structural diagram of a second conductive layer of the layout of the display panel shown in fig. 3a according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 3d is a schematic structural diagram of a third conductive layer of the layout of the display panel shown in fig. 3a according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 3b illustrates the first structure 3 of the first type of pixel driving circuit 21 in an active layer, fig. 3c illustrates the shielding structure 6 in a second conductive layer, and fig. 3d illustrates the second conductive segment 52 in a third conductive layer. The partial dashed boxes in fig. 3b, 3c and 3d may represent corresponding positions of corresponding structures, and are not representative of the structures being located in the film layer.
On the basis of the above embodiments, in combination with fig. 3a to 3d, the patch cord 5 may optionally include: the first wire segment 51 and the second wire segment 52 are connected, and the first wire segment 51 is electrically connected with the corresponding data line 4 through the second wire segment 52; the extending direction of the second wire segment 52 intersects with the extending direction of the data line 4. Optionally, the first wire segment 51 and the data line 4 extend along the first direction Y. I.e. the extending direction of the first wire segment 51 and the data line 4 may be the same. Alternatively, the first wire segment 51 may be a straight line, or may be a broken line or other shapes.
Alternatively, the first direction Y may be a column direction and the second direction X may be a row direction. The extending direction of the second wire segment 52 intersects with the extending direction of the data wire 4, so that the data wire 4 is transferred to the middle position of the display area AA through the second wire segment 52 and the first wire segment 51, and therefore, the data wire 4 partially located in the border area is better transferred to the middle position of the display area AA, the width of the fan-out area of the non-display area NA is reduced, and the border size of the display panel 100 is reduced.
The orthographic projection of the second wire segment 52 on the substrate 1 overlaps the orthographic projection of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the substrate 1, the second wire segment 52 passes through the first type pixel driving circuit 21, and the shielding structure 6 is located between the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21, so that the shielding structure 6 can shield signals between the second wire segment 52 passing through the first type pixel driving circuit 21 and the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21, the influence of the electric signal of the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the second wire segment 52 for transmitting data voltage is reduced, and the phenomenon of uneven display is improved.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 3a, the second wire segment 52 extends in a direction perpendicular to the direction of extension of the data line 4. The extending direction of the second conducting wire segment 52 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the first conducting wire segment 51, and the patch cord 5 is a right-angle folding line. The arrangement is such that the length of the second wire segment 52 between the data line 4 and the first wire segment 51 is short. Since the second wire segment 52 passes through the first type pixel driving circuit 21, the area of the second wire segment 52 with the data voltage transmitted therein overlapping the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 in the display panel 100 can be reduced, so that the coupling effect of the data voltage between the electrical signal transmitted on the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21 and the second wire segment 52 can be further reduced, and the display effect of the display panel 100 can be further improved.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 2 and 3a, the second wire segments 52, the shielding structure 6 and the first structures 3 in the first-type pixel driving circuits 21 are arranged in a stacked manner along the thickness direction Z of the substrate 1. An insulating layer is provided between the second wire segment 52, the shielding structure 6 and adjacent two of the first structures 3 in the first-type pixel driving circuit 21. Along the thickness direction Z of the substrate 1, the shielding structure 6 is disposed between the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3 of the first type pixel driving circuit 21, where the shielding structure 6 can effectively shield signal coupling between the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21, so as to improve shielding effect of the shielding structure 6 on the electrical signal transmitted on the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21 and the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52, and improve uneven display phenomenon.

Specifically, the light emitting structure 7 may include a light emitting material layer, and the light emitting structure 7 is configured to emit light under the driving current of the pixel driving circuit 2. The light emitting structure 7 is connected to the first structure 3 such that an electrical signal transmitted over the first structure 3 will act on the light emitting structure 7 to drive the light emitting structure 7 to emit light and/or to initialize the light emitting structure. The first structure 3 may include, for example, an electrode structure connected to the light emitting structure 7 or a signal transmission line connected to the light emitting structure 7, or the like.

Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 6a to 6e, the signal transmission portion 31 is located on the side of the second wire segment 52 close to the substrate 1. Alternatively, the signal transmission portion 31 is located on a side (not shown in the drawings) of the second wire segment 52 away from the substrate 1, and may be set as needed, which is not limited herein.
Alternatively, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, with continued reference to fig. 6a to 6d, the extending direction of the signal transmission portion 31 intersects with the extending direction of the second wire segment 52. By the arrangement, the overlapping area of the signal transmission part 31 and the second wire segment 52 is smaller, the coupling between the voltage signal transmitted on the signal transmission part 31 and the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 is reduced as much as possible, the interference of the voltage signal transmitted on the signal transmission part 31 to the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 is smaller, and the display uniformity effect of the display panel 100 is further improved. Alternatively, the extending direction of the signal transmission portion 31 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the second wire segment 52.
On the basis of the above-described embodiments, in combination with fig. 7a, 7d to 7f, the first structure 3 comprises a first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7; the first electrode 32 is positioned on one side of the light-emitting structure 7 close to the substrate 1; the shielding structure 6 comprises a second shielding structure 62, the second shielding structure 62 being located between the second wire segment 52 and the first electrode 32.

The partial dashed boxes in fig. 7b and 7e may indicate the location of the corresponding structure, and are not meant to represent that the structure is located in the film layer. The second shielding structure 62 is disposed between the second wire segment 52 and the first electrode 32, so that the second shielding structure 62 can shield the coupling between the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 and the electric signal transmitted on the first electrode 32, reduce the influence of the electric signal transmitted on the first electrode 32 on the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52, improve the light-emitting brightness of the light-emitting structure 7 caused by the change of the data voltage, form a phenomenon of oblique bright lines, and improve the display uniformity effect of the display panel 100.
Optionally, a second electrode 8 is further disposed on a side of the light emitting structure 7 away from the substrate 1. One of the first electrode 32 and the second electrode 8 is an anode, and the other is a cathode. Alternatively, the first electrode 32 may be an anode and the second electrode 8 may be a cathode. Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 7a and 7f, the first electrode 32 is located on the side of the second wire segment 52 remote from the substrate 1.
Referring to fig. 7g, the shielding structure 6 includes a first shielding structure 61 and a second shielding structure 62, the first shielding structure 61 being located between the second wire segment 52 and the signal transmitting portion 31. A second shielding structure 62 is located between the second wire segment 52 and the first electrode 32. Alternatively, the signal transmitting portion 31 and the first electrode 32 are located on opposite sides of the second wire section 52 in the thickness direction Z of the substrate 1.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 3a, at least part of the orthographic projection of the shielding structure 6 (e.g. the first shielding structure 61 and/or the second shielding structure 62) on the substrate 1 is located in the overlapping area of the orthographic projection of the second wire segment 52 on the substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the first structure 3 in the first type of pixel driving circuit 21 on the substrate 1. The shielding structure 6 may cover the overlapping area of the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3, the larger the area of the shielding structure 6 covering the overlapping area of the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3, the better the shielding effect. Optionally, the overlapping area of the front projection of the second wire segment 52 on the substrate 1 and the front projection of the first structure 3 in the first type pixel driving circuit 21 on the substrate 1 is located within the front projection of the shielding structure 6 on the substrate 1, which corresponds to that the shielding structure 6 completely covers the overlapping area of the second wire segment 52 and the first structure 3.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 4, the display panel 100 further includes an initialization signal line Vrefn, the pixel driving circuit 2 further includes a data writing module 201, a driving module 202, and a first initialization module 203, the data line 4 is electrically connected to the driving module 202 via the data writing module 201, the initialization signal line Vrefn is electrically connected to the first structure 3 via the first initialization module 203, and the first initialization module 203 is used for initializing the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7. The initialization signal line Vrefn may be used to transmit an initialization signal. The data writing module 201 may be used to write the data voltages on the data lines 4 to the driving module during the data writing phase.
Alternatively, in the same pixel driving circuit 2 as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the first initializing module 203 initializes the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7, and the data voltage on the data line 4 is transmitted to the driving module 202 through the data writing module 201. By providing the shielding structure 6 (e.g., the first shielding structure 61 and/or the second shielding structure 62) between the first structure 3 and the second wire segment 52 connected to the light emitting structure 7, the problem that the first initializing module 203 initializes the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7, and simultaneously, the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7 jumps in potential, for example, is pulled down from a positive potential to an initializing signal, the second wire segment 52 and the data wire 4 connected to the second wire segment are pulled down, and the potential written into the control end of the driving module of the pixel driving circuit connected to the second wire segment is lower, and the brightness is higher, thereby causing a diagonal bright line can be solved.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 4, the display panel 100 provided in this embodiment may further include a first Scan signal line Scan1, where the data writing module 201 and the first initializing module 203 in the same pixel driving circuit 2 are electrically connected to the first Scan signal line Scan 1. The control terminal of the data writing module 201 and the control terminal of the first initializing module 203, which are equivalent to the same pixel driving circuit, are electrically connected to the output terminal of the same shift register in the scanning circuit via the first scanning signal line Scan1, so as to simplify the structure of the scanning circuit. The scanning circuit can comprise a plurality of cascaded shift registers, and can output scanning signals to corresponding scanning signal lines step by step so as to realize progressive scanning.
Specifically, the first Scan signal line Scan1 may be used to transmit the first Scan signal. In response to the first Scan signal on the first Scan signal line Scan1, the data writing module 201 and the first initializing module 203 are turned on at the same time. The arrangement is such that when the first initialization module 203 transmits an initialization signal to the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7 via the signal transmitting part 31, the Data writing module 201 is turned on, so that the Data line 4 writes the Data voltage Data to the driving module 202 through the turned-on Data writing module 201.
When the shielding structure 6 is not provided, the first initializing module 203 and the data writing module 201 are simultaneously turned on when the first scanning signal transmitted on the first scanning signal line Scan1 arrives, and the first initializing module 203 initializes the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7 and simultaneously writes the data voltage into the control terminal of the driving module 202. The first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7 is pulled down to the initialization signal by a positive potential. Since the second wire segment 52 having the data voltage transmitted thereon overlaps the first structure 3 (e.g., the signal transmission portion 31 and/or the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7) of the at least one first type pixel driving circuit 21, parasitic capacitance exists, so that the potential of the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 will be pulled down, so that the potential written into the gate of the driving module 202 of the pixel driving circuit 2 connected to the second wire segment is lower, which may result in higher brightness of the light emitting structure 7, and uneven bright lines are formed in the display area AA of the display panel 100, thereby affecting the display effect of the display panel 100.
With continued reference to fig. 4, 5, and 7a to 7e, when the first scan signal arrives after the shielding structure 6 is disposed, the initializing signal is written into the first electrode 32 connected to the light emitting structure 7 by disposing the shielding structure 6 to include the first shielding structure 61 and/or the second shielding structure 62, the first shielding structure 61 being located between the second wire section 52 and the signal transmitting portion 31, and/or the second shielding structure 62 being located between the second wire section 52 and the first electrode 32 such that the first shielding structure 61 is located between the second wire section 52 having the data voltage transmitted thereto and the signal transmitting portion 31, and/or the second wire section 52 having the data voltage transmitted thereto and the first electrode 32 of the light emitting structure 7. The arrangement is such that the coupling between the second wire segment 52 and the signal transmission part 31 is reduced, and/or the coupling between the second wire segment 52 and the first electrode 32 is reduced, so that the coupling effect of the low potential on the signal transmission part 31 and/or the first electrode 32 on the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 is reduced, the data voltage transmitted on the second wire segment 52 is stable, the potential written into the control end of the driving module 202 of the pixel driving circuit 2 connected with the second wire segment is stable, and the brightness uniformity of the light emitting structure 7 is good.
Optionally, the shielding structure 6 may further include a third shielding structure disposed between the data line 4 and the first structure 3 to reduce the coupling effect of the low potential on the signal transmission portion 31 and/or the first electrode 32 on the data voltage transmitted on the data line 4, thereby improving the uniformity of display.
Optionally, the shielding structure 6 may further include a fourth shielding structure disposed between the first wire segment 51 and the first structure 3, so as to reduce the coupling effect of the low potential on the signal transmission portion 31 and/or the first electrode 32 on the data voltage transmitted on the data line 4, and improve the uniformity of display.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 4 on the basis of the foregoing embodiment, the display panel 100 provided in this embodiment may further include a light emission control signal line EM, where the pixel driving circuit 2 further includes a light emission control module 204, where the light emission control module 204, the driving module 202 and the light emission structure 7 are connected in series, and two ends after the connection are electrically connected to the first potential signal line ELVSS and the second potential signal line ELVDD, respectively, and a control end of the light emission control module 204 is connected to the light emission control signal line EM.
Referring to fig. 3 to 5, in the light emitting stage, in response to the light emission control signal on the light emission control signal line EM, the light emission control module 204 is turned on to make the driving current generated by the driving module 202 flow into the light emitting structure to drive the light emitting structure 7 to emit light. One of the first potential signal line ELVSS and the second potential signal line ELVDD is a high potential signal line, and the other is a low potential signal line. The first potential signal line ELVSS may be a low potential signal line. The second potential signal line ELVDD may be a high potential signal line.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 6c, the second wire segment 52, the initialization signal line Vrefn, and the emission control signal line EM extend in the second direction X. Namely, the second wire segment 52, the initialization signal line Vrefn, and the emission control signal line EM extend in the same direction. Optionally, the orthographic projection of the second wire segment 52 of the patch cord 5 on the substrate 1 is located between the orthographic projection of the initialization signal line Vrefn on the substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the emission control signal line EM on the substrate 1. Thus, the overlapping position of the second wire segment 52 and the active layer of the single pixel driving circuit 2 is one, and if the second wire segment 52 is arranged at other positions, the overlapping position of the second wire segment 52 and the active layer of the single pixel driving circuit 2 is two or more, so that the overlapping area of the second wire segment 52 and the active layer can be reduced, and the signal coupling effect of the active layer on the second wire segment 52 can be reduced.
Optionally, with continued reference to fig. 4 based on the above embodiment, the pixel driving circuit 2 may further include a second initialization module 206 for initializing the control terminal of the driving module 202. A first end of the second initialization module 206 is electrically connected to the initialization signal line Vrefn, and a second end of the second initialization module 206 is electrically connected to the control end of the driving module 202. Optionally, the control terminal of the second initialization module 206 may be connected to the second Scan signal line Scan 2. The second initialization module 206 is configured to conduct a second Scan signal transmitted according to the second Scan signal line Scan2 in the initialization stage t1, so as to transmit an initialization signal to the control terminal of the driving module 202. Optionally, the pixel driving circuit 2 may further include a storage module 207, where a first end of the storage module 207 is electrically connected to the control end of the driving module 202. A second terminal of the memory module 207 may be connected to the second potential signal line ELVDD. Optionally, the pixel driving circuit 2 may further include a compensation module 205 for performing threshold compensation on the driving module 202. The compensation module 205 is connected between the control terminal and the second terminal of the driving module 202. The control terminal of the compensation module 205 may be electrically connected to the first Scan signal line Scan 1. The Data writing module 201 may be connected between the Data line Data and the first end of the driving module 202.
Alternatively, in two adjacent rows of pixel driving circuits 2, the data writing module 201 of the previous row of pixel driving circuits 2 and the second initializing module 206 of the next row of pixel driving circuits 2 are connected to the same scanning signal line or the same shift register of the scanning circuit, so as to simplify the structure of the scanning circuit. The data writing module 201 of the previous row of pixel driving circuits and the second initializing module 206 of the next row of pixel driving circuits may be turned on at the same time and turned off at the same time.
