Abstract

一种像素电路、其驱动方法及显示装置。像素电路包括:第一复位模块(1)、数据写入模块(2)、补偿模块(3)、稳压模块(4)、驱动控制模块(5)、发光控制模块(6)和发光器件(D)。通过上述各模块的配合工作,像素电路可以补偿驱动控制模块(5)的阈值电压的漂移。因此,在发光显示时,可以使驱动发光器件(D)发光的驱动电流与数据信号的电压有关,与驱动控制模块(5)的阈值电压和第一参考信号端(VDD)的电压无关,从而避免阈值电压和压降(IR Drop)对流过发光器件(D)的电流的影响,使得驱动发光器件(D)发光的工作电流保持一致,提高显示装置显示区域图像亮度的均匀性。

Description

像素电路、其驱动方法及相关装置
本申请要求2015年9月10日递交的中国专利申请第201510575125.1号的优先权,在此全文引用上述中国专利申请所公开的内容以作为本申请的一部分。
技术领域
本发明涉及有机电致发光技术领域,尤其涉及像素电路、其驱动方法及相关装置。
背景技术
有机发光显示器(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)是当今平板显示器研究领域的热点之一。与液晶显示器相比,OLED具有低能耗、低生产成本、自发光、宽视角及响应速度快等优点。目前,在手机、PDA、数码相机等显示领域OLED已经开始取代传统的LCD显示屏。其中,像素电路设计是OLED显示器核心技术内容,具有重要的研究意义。
与LCD利用稳定的电压控制亮度不同,OLED属于电流驱动,需要稳定的电流来控制发光。由于工艺制程和器件老化等原因,会使像素电路的驱动晶体管的阈值电压Vth存在不均匀性,这样就导致了流过每个像素点OLED的电流发生变化使得显示亮度不均,从而影响整个图像的显示效果。
图1为现有技术的像素电路的示意性的电路图。如图1所示,以现有的2个晶体管1个电容(2M1C)的像素电路为例,该电路由1个驱动晶体管M2,一个开关晶体管M1和一个存储电容Cs组成。当某一行的像素电路被扫描时时,该行像素电路的扫描线Scan输入低电平信号,P型的开关晶体管M1导通,数据线Data的电压写入存储电容Cs。当该行扫描结束后,扫描线Scan输入的信号变为高电平,P型的开关晶体管M1关断,存储电容Cs存储的栅极电压使驱动晶体管M2产生电流来驱动OLED,保证OLED在一帧内持续发光。驱动晶体管M2的饱和电流公式为IOLED=K(VSG-Vth)2, 正如前述,由于工艺制程和器件老化等原因,驱动晶体管M2的阈值电压Vth会漂移,此外,由于压降(IR Drop)的原因,驱动晶体管M2的源极电压VS也会不同。这样就导致了流过每个OLED的电流因驱动晶体管的阈值电压Vth和在驱动晶体管的源极施加的电压VDD的变化而变化,从而导致图像亮度不均匀。

下面分别以图7和图8所示的像素电路为例对本发明实施例提供的像素电路的工作过程作以描述。为了便于描述,规定电容C的第一端为第一节点A,电容C的第二端为第二节点B。且下述描述中以1表示高电平信号,0表示低电平信号。
首先,以图7所示的像素电路的结构为例对其工作过程作以描述,其 中在图7所示的像素电路中,驱动晶体管DT为P型晶体管,所有开关晶体管均为N型晶体管,各N型晶体管在高电平作用下导通,在低电平作用下截止。
图9为图7所示的像素电路的电路时序示意图。以下,选取如图9所示的输入时序图中的T1、T2和T3三个阶段进行说明。
在T1阶段,Scan1=0,Reset1=1,EM=0。
第一开关晶体管T1和第二开关晶体管T2、处于导通状态,第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4、第五开关晶体管T5、第六开关晶体管T6和第七开关晶体管T7处于截止状态。第一参考信号端VDD的信号通过导通的第一开关晶体管T1传输至第一节点A,初始化信号端Vinit的信号通过导通的第二开关晶体管T2传输至第二节点B,因此,此阶段,第一节点A的电压复位为第一参考信号端VDD的电压,第二节点B的电压复位为初始化信号端Vinit的电压。
在T2阶段,Scan1=1,Reset1=0,EM=0。
第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4和第七开关晶体管T7处于导通状态,第一开关晶体管T1、第二开关晶体管T2、第五开关晶体管T5和第六开关晶体管T6处于截止状态。导通的第四开关晶体管T4使驱动晶体管DT连接为二极管结构,数据信号端Data的信号通过导通的第三开关晶体管T3传输至第一节点A,因此第一电节点A的电压为数据信号端Data的电压Vdata,第一参考信号端VDD的信号通过二极管结构的驱动晶体管DT传输至第二节点B,因此第二节点B的电压为VDD+Vth,其中VDD为第一参考信号端VDD的电压,Vth为驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压。同时,写入控制信号端Scan1的信号通过导通的第七开关晶体管T7传输至发光器件D的第一端。
在T3阶段,Scan1=0,Reset1=0,EM=1。
第五开关晶体管T5和第六开关晶体管T6处于导通状态,第一开关晶体管T1、第二开关晶体管T2、第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4和第七开关晶体管T7处于截止状态。第三参考信号端Vref的信号通过导 通的第一开关晶体管传输至第一节点A,第一节点A的电位由上一阶段的Vdata变为Vref,其中Vref为第三参考信号端Vref的电压,由于电容C的作用,根据电容电量守恒原理,第二节点B的电压由上一阶段的VDD+Vth变为VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata。因此,在此阶段中,驱动晶体管DT的栅极的电压保持在VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata,驱动晶体管DT的源极电压为第一参考信号端VDD的电压VDD,驱动晶体管DT工作处于饱和状态,根据饱和状态电流特性可知,流过驱动晶体管DT且用于驱动OLED发光的工作电流IOLED满足公式:IOLED=K(Vgs–Vth)2=K(VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata-VDD–Vth)2=K(Vref-Vdata)2,其中K为结构参数,晶体管结构不变时此数值相对稳定,可以算作常量。从而可以看出有机发光二极管OLED的工作电流IOLED已经不受驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压Vth的影响,且和第一参考信号端VDD的电压VDD无关,仅与数据信号端Data的电压Vdata和第三参考信号端Verf的电压Vref有关,彻底解决了由于工艺制程以及长时间的操作造成的驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压Vth漂移以及压降(IR Drop)对有机发光二极管OLED的工作电流IOLED造成的影响,从而改善了面板显示的不均匀性。
然后,以图8所示的像素电路的结构为例对其工作过程作以描述,其中在图8所示的像素电路中,驱动晶体管DT和所有开关晶体管均为P型晶体管,各P型晶体管在低电平作用下导通,在高电平作用下截止。图10为图8所示的像素电路的电路时序示意图。以下,选取如图10所示的输入时序图中的T1、T2和T3三个阶段。
在T1阶段,Scan1=1,Reset1=0,EM=1。
第一开关晶体管T1和第二开关晶体管T2、处于导通状态,第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4、第五开关晶体管T5、第六开关晶体管T6和第七开关晶体管T7处于截止状态。第一参考信号端VDD的信号通过导通的第一开关晶体管T1传输至第一节点A,初始化信号端Vinit的信号通过导通的第二开关晶体管T2传输至第二节点B,因此,此阶段,第一节点A的电压复位为第一参考信号端VDD的电压,第二节点B的电压复位为初始化信号端Vinit的电压。
在T2阶段,Scan1=0,Reset1=1,EM=1。
第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4和第七开关晶体管T7处于导通状态,第一开关晶体管T1、第二开关晶体管T2、第五开关晶体管T5和第六开关晶体管T6处于截止状态。导通的第四开关晶体管T4使驱动晶体管DT连接为二极管结构,数据信号端Data的信号通过导通的第三开关晶体管T3传输至第一节点A,因此第一电节点A的电压为数据信号端Data的电压Vdata,第一参考信号端VDD的信号通过二极管结构的驱动晶体管DT传输至第二节点B,因此第二节点B的电压为VDD+Vth,其中VDD为第一参考信号端VDD的电压,Vth为驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压。同时写入控制信号端Scan1的信号通过导通的第七开关晶体管T7传输至发光器件D的第一端。
在T3阶段,Scan1=1,Reset1=1,EM=0。
第五开关晶体管T5和第六开关晶体管T6处于导通状态,第一开关晶体管T1、第二开关晶体管T2、第三开关晶体管T3、第四开关晶体管T4和第七开关晶体管T7处于截止状态。第三参考信号端Vref的信号通过导通的第一开关晶体管传输至第一节点A,第一节点A的电位由上一阶段的Vdata变为Vref,其中Vref为第三参考信号端Vref的电压,由于电容C的作用,根据电容电量守恒原理,第二节点B的电压由上一阶段的VDD+Vth变为VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata。因此,在此阶段中,驱动晶体管DT的栅极的电压保持在VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata,驱动晶体管DT的源极电压为第一参考信号端VDD的电压VDD,驱动晶体管DT工作处于饱和状态,根据饱和状态电流特性可知,流过驱动晶体管DT且用于驱动OLED发光的工作电流IOLED满足公式:IOLED=K(Vgs–Vth)2=K(VDD+Vth+Vref-Vdata-VDD–Vth)2=K(Vref-Vdata)2,其中K为结构参数,相同结构中此数值相对稳定,可以算作常量。从而可以看出有机发光二极管OLED的工作电流IOLED已经不受驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压Vth的影响,且和第一参考信号端VDD的电压VDD无关,仅与数据信号端Data的电压Vdata和第三参考信号端Verf的电压Vref有关,彻底解决了由于工艺制程以及长时间的操作造成的驱动晶体管DT的阈值电压 Vth1漂移以及压降(IR Drop)对有机发光二极管OLED的工作电流IOLED造成的影响,从而改善了面板显示的不均匀性。

根据本发明的第五实施例,还提供了一种有机电致发光显示面板,包括上述任一种像素电路。由于该有机电致发光显示面板解决问题的原理与前述像素电路相似,因此该有机电致发光显示面板中的像素电路的实施可以参见前述实例中像素电路的实施,重复之处不再赘述。
根据本发明的第六实施例,还提供了一种显示装置,包括上述有机电致发光显示面板。该显示装置可以是显示器、手机、电视、笔记本、一体机等,对于显示装置的其它必不可少的组成部分均为本领域的普通技术人 员应该理解具有的,在此不做赘述,也不应作为对本发明的限制。
本发明实施例提供的上述像素电路、其驱动方法及相关装置,包括:第一复位模块、数据写入模块、补偿模块、稳压模块、驱动控制模块、发光控制模块和发光器件。其中,第一复位模块用于在第一复位控制信号端的信号的控制下,对稳压模块的第一端和第二端的电位进行复位。数据写入模块用于在写入控制信号端的信号的控制下,将数据信号端的信号提供给稳压模块的第一端。补偿模块用于在补偿控制信号端的信号的控制下,将驱动控制模块的阈值电压储存在稳压模块中。发光控制模块用于在发光控制信号端的信号的控制下,与稳压模块共同控制驱动控制模块驱动发光器件发光。通过上述各模块的配合工作该像素电路可以补偿驱动控制模块的阈值电压的漂移,因此,在发光显示时,可以使驱动发光器件发光的驱动电流与数据信号的电压有关,与驱动控制模块的阈值电压和第一参考信号端的电压无关,能避免阈值电压和压降(IR Drop)对流过发光器件的电流的影响,从而使驱动发光器件发光的工作电流保持一致,提高了显示装置显示区域图像亮度的均匀性。
显然,本领域的技术人员可以对本发明进行各种改动和变型而不脱离本发明的精神和范围。这样,倘若本发明的这些修改和变型属于本发明权利要求及其等同技术的范围之内,则本发明也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。
