The second driving elements 142 are respectively configured to drive the corresponding two second electroluminescent elements 141 located in the second pixel regions 102 of the peripheral region 10P. In other variant embodiments, the second pixel region 102 may be arranged in the peripheral region 10P into three or more pixel rows, and may be disposed in the first pixel region 101 of the pixel array 10X. The second driving elements 142 having the same number of second electroluminescent elements 141 of the pixel region 102, for example, three or more second driving elements 142 are disposed in each of the first pixel regions 101 of the first row of the pixel array 10X. .

請參考第6圖,並一併參考第1圖與第3圖。第6圖繪示了本發明之第三實施例之電激發光顯示面板的局部剖面視意圖。如第6圖所示,在本實施例之電激發光顯示面板3中,在各第一畫素區101內,第一驅動元件122與第二驅動元件142係未與第一電激發光元件121在垂直投影方向上重疊。第一電激發光元件121之第一下電極121A可為透明電極或不透明電極。另外,第二電激發光元件141的第二下電極141A為不透明電極,以遮蔽周邊區10P之導線16。 Please refer to Figure 6 and refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 together. Fig. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view showing the electroluminescent display panel of the third embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, in the electroluminescent display panel 3 of the present embodiment, in each of the first pixel regions 101, the first driving element 122 and the second driving element 142 are not connected to the first electroluminescent element. 121 overlaps in the vertical projection direction. The first lower electrode 121A of the first electroluminescent element 121 may be a transparent electrode or an opaque electrode. In addition, the second lower electrode 141A of the second electroluminescent element 141 is an opaque electrode to shield the wires 16 of the peripheral region 10P.

在上述實施例中,第二電激發光元件141係設置於主動區10A之兩相對側的周邊區10P內,但不以此為限。在其它變化實施例中,第二電激發光元件141可設置於主動區10A之單一側、三側或四側的周邊區10P內。 In the above embodiment, the second electroluminescent element 141 is disposed in the peripheral region 10P on the opposite sides of the active region 10A, but is not limited thereto. In other variant embodiments, the second electroluminescent element 141 can be disposed within the peripheral region 10P of the single side, the three sides, or the four sides of the active region 10A.

綜上所述,本發明之電激發光顯示面板於周邊區設置有第二電激發光元件,可於周邊區提供顯示效果,因此在視覺上可縮減周邊區的面積而實現出窄邊框設計。實際上,由於用以驅動第二電激發光元件的第二驅動元件係設置於主動區內,因此不會影響周邊區內導線的佈設面積。 In summary, the electroluminescent display panel of the present invention is provided with a second electroluminescent element in the peripheral region, which can provide a display effect in the peripheral region, thereby visually reducing the area of the peripheral region to achieve a narrow bezel design. In fact, since the second driving element for driving the second electroluminescent element is disposed in the active region, the layout area of the wires in the peripheral region is not affected.
