DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE
Reference will now be made in detail to exemplary embodiments of the disclosure, which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or the alike parts. The described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the disclosed embodiments, persons of ordinary skill in the art may derive other embodiments consistent with the present disclosure, all of which are within the scope of the present disclosure.
Similar reference numbers and letters represent similar terms in the following Figures, such that once an item is defined in one Figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent Figures.
The present disclosure provides a display panel. FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of a pixel circuit consistent with disclosed embodiments of the present disclosure; and FIG. 2 illustrates a timing sequence diagram of a first mode and a second mode consistent with disclosed embodiments of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the display panel may include a pixel circuit 10 and a light-emitting element 20. The pixel circuit 10 may include a driving module 11 and a compensation module 12. The driving module 11 may be configured to provide a driving current for the light-emitting element 20. The driving module 11 may include a driving transistor T0. The compensation module 12 may be configured to compensate a threshold voltage of the driving transistor T0, and may be connected between a gate and a drain of the driving transistor T0. A time period of one frame of the display panel may include a non-light-emitting stage and a light-emitting stage. The non-light-emitting stage may include a bias adjustment stage. In the bias adjustment stage, the compensation module 12 may be turned off, and one of the source and the drain of the driving transistor T0 may receive a bias adjustment signal for adjusting the bias state of the driving transistor T0.
The operating state of the pixel circuit 10 may include a first mode EMIT1 and a second mode EMIT2. A time length of the non-light-emitting stage in the first mode EMIT1 may be L1, and a time length of the non-light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2 may be L2, where L1>L2. The working process of the display panel in the first mode EMIT1 may include a first frame, and the working process of the display panel in the second mode EMIT2 may include a second frame. In the first frame, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be W1, and in the second frame, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be W2, where W1/L1<W2/L2.
It should be understood that a brightness of the light-emitting element in the first mode EMIT1 may be lower than a brightness of the light-emitting element in the second mode EMIT2. The disclosed display panel may adjust the brightness of the light-emitting element. The time length L1 of the non-light-emitting stage in the first mode EMIT1 may be greater than the time length L2 of the non-light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2. In a case where the total time length of the non-light-emitting stage and the light-emitting stage of each frame is same or similar, the time length of the light-emitting stage in the first mode EMIT1 may be greater than the time length of the light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2. Accordingly, the brightness of the light-emitting element in the first mode EMIT1 may be lower, and the brightness of the light-emitting element in the second mode EMIT2 may be higher. The brightness mode may be switched by switching the first mode EMIT1 and the second mode EMIT2.
It should be noted that the brightness of the light-emitting element in the first mode and the brightness of the light-emitting element in the second mode may refer to the total brightness of the final display image reflected in human eye. Because the time length of the light-emitting stage in the first mode is less than the time length of the light-emitting stage in the second mode, the time length of the light-emitting stage of each frame in the second mode may become larger, which may cause a higher total brightness in the second mode for the entire image that is ultimately observed by the human eye.
The pixel circuit 10 may include the driving module 11, and an output terminal of the driving module 11 may be coupled to the light-emitting element 20. The driving module 11 may include the driving transistor T0. After the driving transistor T0 is turned on, the driving module 11 may provide a driving current for the light-emitting element 20. Optionally, a source of the driving transistor T0 may be an input terminal of the driving module 11, and a drain of the driving transistor T0 may be an output terminal of the driving module 11. The structure of the driving module may not be limited by the present disclosure, and may be determined according to the conduction type of the driving transistor T0. The pixel circuit 10 may further include the compensation module 12 for compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T0. The compensation module 12 may be connected between the gate and the drain of the driving transistor T0. When the transmission path of the compensation module 12 is controlled to be turned on, the transmission path between the gate and the drain of the driving transistor T0 may be turned on, such that the voltage between the gate of the driving transistor T0 and the output terminal of the driving module 11 may be adjusted, and the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T0 may be compensated.
In the non-bias adjustment stage such as the light-emitting stage, etc., of the pixel circuit, when the driving transistor is a PMOS transistor, there may be a situation where the gate potential of the driving transistor is greater than the drain potential of the driving transistor when the driving transistor is turned on. When the driving transistor is an NMOS transistor, there may be a situation where the gate potential of the driving transistor is lower than the drain potential of the driving transistor when the driving transistor is turned on. If the driving transistor is kept in such state for a long term, the ions inside the driving transistor may be polarized to form a built-in electric field inside the driving transistor, which may cause the threshold voltage of the driving transistor to continuously increase. FIG. 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of a shift of Id-Vg curve of the driving transistor. Referring to FIG. 3, the Id-Vg curve may shift, which may cause the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor to shift, thereby affecting the driving current flowing into the light-emitting element, and further affecting the display effect of the display panel.
The working process of the pixel circuit 10 may include a bias adjustment stage. In the bias adjustment stage, the compensation module 12 may be turned off, and one of the source and drain of the driving transistor T0 may receive the bias adjustment signal to adjust the bias state of the driving transistor T0. Furthermore, the potential difference between the gate potential and the drain potential of the driving transistor T0, or the potential difference between the gate potential and the source potential of the driving transistor T0 may be improved, the polarization degree of ions inside the driving transistor T0 may be reduced, such that the Id-Vg curve of the driving transistor T0 may not be shifted, which may reduce the shift of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T0, and may improve the display effect of the display panel.
Further, in the present disclosure, the time length of the bias adjustment stage and the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may not change in a same proportion. When the display panel changes from the first mode EMIT1 to the second mode EMIT2 based on the changing requirements of the brightness, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may be shortened. In view of this, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be adjusted according to W1/L1<W2/L2, such that the time length change of the bias adjustment stage caused by the mode change of the operating state may be substantially small. In view of this, the time length of the bias adjustment stage in the second mode EMIT2 may be substantially large.
Because the time length of the light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2 is substantially large, the bias situation may be substantially serious, and a substantially large time length of the bias adjustment state may be required to cancel out the influence caused by the bias of the driving transistor. The time length of the bias adjustment stage in the second mode EMIT2 may be kept substantially large, thereby avoiding the flickering phenomenon caused by a substantially small time length of the bias adjustment stage in the second mode EMIT2 when adjusting the mode of the display panel. Therefore, in the disclosed embodiments, the flickering problem of the display panel in different brightness modes may be solved, which may ensure the display effect of the display device.
In one embodiment, the relationship between a time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame and a time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame may satisfy W1 FIG. 4 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. Referring to FIG. 4, the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be equal to the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame. In other words, the time length of the bias adjustment stage in different brightness modes may remain unchanged, which may solve the flickering problem of the display panel in different brightness modes.
FIG. 5 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. Referring to FIG. 5, the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be less than the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame. In one embodiment, the time length L1 of the non-light-emitting stage in the first mode EMIT1 may be greater than the time length L2 of the non-light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2. Further, when the time length of each frame is the same, the time length of the light-emitting stage in the first mode EMIT1 may be less than the time length of the light-emitting stage in the second mode EMIT2. Because the threshold voltage shift of the driving transistor T0 is mainly caused in the light-emitting stage, the greater the time length of the light-emitting stage, the more serious the threshold voltage shift. Therefore, through configuring the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame to be greater than the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame, the threshold voltages of the driving transistor T0 in the first mode EMIT1 and the second mode EMIT2 may be balanced, to solve the flickering problem of the display panel in different brightness modes.
In certain embodiments, under the premise of W1/L1<W2/L2, the relationship between W1 and W2 may satisfy W1>W2. In view of this, when the display panel changes from the first mode to the second mode, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may become smaller, and the time length of the bias adjustment stage may also become smaller. For example, when there is a certain requirement for the time length of the non-light-emitting stage of the second mode, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be appropriately shortened, to ensure that the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may be substantially short.
In one embodiment, the relationship of the variation amplitudes of the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame, the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame, the time length L1 of the non-light-emitting stage of the pixel circuit in the first mode EMIT1, and the time length L2 of the non-light-emitting stage of the pixel circuit in the second mode EMIT2 may satisfy W2/W1<L1/L2, where W2/W11 and L1/L2>1. In the present disclosure, the extension of the time length of the non-light-emitting stage in the first mode may be greater than the shortening of the time length of the bias adjustment stage in the first mode, which may avoid the occurrence of the incomplete bias adjustment in the first mode caused by too small time length of the bias adjustment stage.
In one embodiment, the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame, the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame, the time length L1 of the non-light-emitting stage of the pixel circuit in the first mode EMIT1, and the time length L2 of the non-light-emitting stage of the pixel circuit in the second mode EMIT2 may satisfy W1/L1<1/2, and/or W2/L2<1/2. In the disclosed embodiments, the time length W1 of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame and the time length W2 of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame may be optimized by limiting the range of a ratio of W1 over L1 and limiting the range of a ratio of W2 over L2, such that the time length of bias adjustment stage may be prevented from being too large.
In the process of displaying one frame image, there may be a high-brightness light-emitting element and a low-brightness light-emitting element. The gate potential of the driving transistor corresponding to the high-brightness light-emitting element may be substantially small, and the gate potential of the driving transistor corresponding to the low-brightness light-emitting element may be substantially large, while the bias adjustment signal in some cases may be the same. Therefore, if the time length of the bias adjustment stage is set to be too large, the difference between the bias adjustment of the driving transistor corresponding to the high-brightness light-emitting element and the bias adjustment of the driving transistor corresponding to the low-brightness light-emitting element may be further enlarged, which may make the display effect of the display panel substantially poor.
Therefore, in one embodiment, through configuring the correlation ratio of W1/L1<1/2 and/or W2/L2<1/2, it may be ensured that a ratio of the time length of the bias adjustment stage over the time length of the entire non-light-emitting stage may be less than 1/2. Thus, the situation where the difference between bias adjustments of the driving transistors corresponding to the light-emitting elements with different brightness caused by too large time length of the bias adjustment stage is substantially large may be prevented, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel.
In one embodiment, the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may include N1 sub-bias adjustment stages, where N1≥1. The bias adjustment stage in the second frame may include N2 sub-bias adjustment stages, where N2≥1. The time length of the at least one sub-bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be equal to the time length of the at least one sub-bias adjustment stage in the second frame.
FIG. 6 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 6, the time lengths of the N1 sub-bias adjustment stages contained in the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may include a time length W11 of the first sub-bias adjustment stage to a time length W1n of the N1th sub-bias adjustment stage, respectively. The time lengths of the N2 sub-bias adjustment stages contained in the bias adjustment stage in the second frame may include a time length W21 of the first sub-bias adjustment stage to a time length W2n of the N2th sub-bias adjustment stage, respectively. Here, n in W1n and W2n may merely be a code used to refer to a certain quantity, and may not mean that the quantities of sub-bias adjustment stages in the first frame and the second frame is the same. In one embodiment, N1 and N2 may be equal, or unequal. The time length of at least one sub-bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be equal to the time length of at least one sub-bias adjustment stage in the second frame. Therefore, the bias adjustment stage may be composed of at least one sub-bias adjustment stage, and at least one sub-bias adjustment stage in the first frame and the second frame may have equal time length. In other words, the time length of at least one sub-bias adjustment stage may not change as the brightness mode is adjusted, thereby ensuring that the display panel may avoid flickering problems in different brightness modes.
FIG. 7 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 7, the time length W1i of the ith sub-bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be equal to the time length W2i of the ith sub-bias adjustment stage in the second frame, where 1≤i≤N0. When N1≠N2, N0 may be the smaller one of N1 and N2. When N1=N2, N0=N1=N2. In one embodiment, the time lengths of the sub-bias adjustment stages in the same order from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage in the first frame and the second frame may be the same, such that the total time lengths of the bias adjustment stages in the first frame and the second frame may be the same, to further ensure that the results of the bias adjustments in different brightness modes may be similar, and to ensure that the display panel may avoid flickering problems in different brightness modes.
In addition, in one embodiment, |N1−N2|≥1. When W1<W2, N2−N1≥1. In other words, in view of this, the bias adjustment stage in the second frame may include at least one more sub-bias adjustment stage than the bias adjustment stage in the first frame, and, thus, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be adjusted by adjusting the quantity of the sub-bias adjustment stages. Because the control signal in the display panel is often a pulse with a certain width, adjusting the width of the pulse may often require adjusting various signals in the circuit components that generate the pulse, which may cause a substantially large adjustment. Adjusting the quantity of pulses may often require providing a specific instruction. Therefore, in one embodiment, through configuring N2−N1≥1, such that W1<W2. Similarly, when W1>W2, N1−N2≥1. In view of this, the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may include at least one more sub-bias adjustment stage than the bias adjustment stage in the second frame. Therefore, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be adjusted by adjusting the quantity of the sub-bias adjustment stages.
FIG. 8 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 8, the time interval from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame may be L3, and the time interval from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the bias adjustment stage in the second frame may be L4, where L3>L4. In the disclosed embodiments, by adjusting the time intervals from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the bias adjustment stage in the first frame and the second frame, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage in the first frame and the time length of the non-light-emitting stage in the second frame may be adjusted. Because after the bias adjustment stage starts, the adjustment of the time length of the non-light-emitting stage is related to the adjustment of the time length of the bias adjustment stage, adjustments of L3 and L4 may be carried out before the bias adjustment stage starts, which may effectively avoid the adverse effect on the time length of the bias adjustment stage, may ensure the display effect in different modes, and may avoid the flickering problem.
FIG. 9 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 9, the non-light-emitting stage may further include a signal adjustment stage. In the signal adjustment stage, the compensation module may be turned on, and the gate of the driving transistor T0 may receive a preset signal to adjust the gate potential of the driving transistor T0. The signal adjustment stage may include M sub-signal adjustment stages. In one embodiment, the signal adjustment stage in the first mode EMIT1 may include M sub-signal adjustment stages from Z11 to Z1m, the signal adjustment stage in the second mode EMIT2 may include M sub-signal adjustment stages from Z21 to Z2m, and M≥1. When the compensation module 12 is turned on, the display panel may be in the signal adjustment stage.
FIG. 10 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 10, the bias adjustment stage may be at located a time period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage, where 1≤j≤M. In the first frame, a time length of a period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z1j may be L11, and a time length of a period from the beginning of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z1j to the end of the non-light-emitting stage may be L12. In the second frame, a time length of a period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the beginning of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z2j may be L21, and a time length of a period from the beginning of the ith sub-signal adjustment stage Z2j to the end of the non-light-emitting stage may be L22, where L11=L21, and L12>L22. In one embodiment, the bias adjustment stage may be performed before the ith sub-signal adjustment stage starts, and L11=L21 and L12>L22. The time period from the beginning of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage to the end of the non-light-emitting stage may be adjusted, to avoid affecting the time length of the bias adjustment stage.
FIG. 11 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 11, L11=L21, L12>L22, and further, L12>L11 and/or L22>L21. Among the at least one of the first frame and the second frame, a time length of a portion of the non-light-emitting stage containing the bias adjustment stage may be less than a time length of another portion of the non-light-emitting stage excluding the bias adjustment stage. On the one hand, through adjusting the time length of the portion of the non-light-emitting stage excluding the bias adjustment stage, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage in different brightness modes may be adjusted. On the other hand, the uneven display between the high grayscale area and the low grayscale area of the display panel caused by too large time length of the bias adjustment stage may be prevented.
FIG. 12 illustrates another timing sequence diagram of the first mode and the second mode. In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, the bias adjustment stage may be located at a time period from the end of the ith sub-signal adjustment stage to the end of the non-light-emitting stage, where 1≤j≤M. In the first frame, the time length of the period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z1j may be L13, and the time length of the period from the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z1j to the end of the non-light-emitting stage may be L14. In the second frame, the time length of the period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z2j may be L23, and the time length of the period from the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage Z2j to the end of the non-light-emitting stage may be L24, where L13>L23 and L14=L24.
In the disclosed embodiments, the bias adjustment stage may be at the time period from the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage to the end of the non-light-emitting stage, where L13>L23 and L14=L24. Therefore, the time length of the portion of the non-light-emitting stage excluding the bias adjustment stage (e.g., the time period from the beginning of the non-light-emitting stage to the end of the ith sub-signal adjustment stage) may be adjusted, while the time length of the portion of the non-light-emitting stage containing the bias adjustment stage (e.g., the time period from the end of the jth sub-signal adjustment stage to the end of the non-light-emitting stage) may remain unchanged.
Referring to FIG. 12, in the disclosed embodiments, L13>L23, L14=L24, and further, L13>L14 and/or L23>L24. Among the at least one of the first frame and the second frame, the time length of the portion of the non-light-emitting stage containing the bias adjustment stage may be less than the time length of the portion of the non-light-emitting stage excluding the bias adjustment stage.

A first electrode of the bias adjustment transistor Tb may receive the bias adjustment signal Vobs, a second electrode of the bias adjustment transistor Tb may be connected to the source or the drain of the driving transistor T0, and a gate of the bias adjustment transistor Tb may receive the bias adjustment scanning signal Kb.
FIG. 28 illustrates a timing sequence diagram of the pixel circuit in FIG. 27. Referring to FIG. 28, first, the light-emitting control signal EM1 may be an invalid pulse, such that the pixel circuit 10 may control the light-emitting element 20 to be in a non-light-emitting stage. The non-light-emitting stage may include a reset stage (the reset stage may be the first sub-signal adjustment stage), a bias adjustment stage, and a second sub-signal adjustment stage. In the reset stage, the reset scanning signal Kr2 may control the reset transistor Tr2 to be turned on, and at the same time, the second scanning signal K2 may be an effective pulse to control the second transistor T2 to be turned on, such that the reset signal Vref2 may be transmitted to the gate of the driving transistor T0 through the reset transistor Tr2 and the second transistor T2.
In the bias adjustment stage, the second scanning signal K2 may be an invalid pulse to control the second transistor T2 to be turned off, and at the same time, the fifth scanning signal K5 may control the fifth transistor T5 to be turned off, and the bias adjustment scanning signal Kb may control the bias adjustment transistor Tb to be turned on, such that the bias adjustment signal Vobs may be transmitted to the drain of the driving transistor T0, to adjust the bias state of the driving transistor T0. The bias adjustment signal Vobs may be a fixed-level signal. In one embodiment, when the driving transistor T0 is a P-type transistor, Vobs may be a high-level signal, and when the driving transistor T0 is an N-type transistor, Vobs may be a low-level signal.
In the second sub-signal adjustment stage, the second scanning signal K2 may be an effective pulse to control the second transistor T2 to be turned on, and at the same time, the fifth scanning signal K5 may control the fifth transistor T5 to be turned on, such that the data signal Vdata multiplexed as a preset signal may be transmitted to the gate of the driving transistor T0 through the fifth transistor T5, the driving transistor T0, and the second transistor T2. Then, the light-emitting control signal EM1 may be an effective pulse, such that the pixel circuit 10 may control the light-emitting element 20 to be in the light-emitting stage.

When the driving transistor T0 is an N-type transistor, the first electrode of the driving transistor T0 may be the drain and the second electrode of the driving transistor T0 may be the source.
Further, the effective pulse of the first light-emitting control signal EM11 may control the first light-emitting control module 191 to be turned on, and the invalid pulse of the first light-emitting control signal EM11 may control the first light-emitting control module 191 to be turned off.

Referring to the timing sequence diagram illustrated in FIG. 31, in the bias adjustment stage, the first light-emitting control module 191 may be turned on, and the second light-emitting control module 192 may be turned off. The first power signal PVDD may be the bias adjustment signal, and the bias adjustment signal may be transmitted to the source of the driving transistor T0 through the first light-emitting control module 191, and then may be transmitted to the drain of the driving transistor T0 through the driving transistor T0. The initialization transistor Tv in the present disclosure may be turned on when the fourth transistor T4 is turned off, and may initialize the light-emitting element 20 in the non-light-emitting stage to enable the light-emitting element 20 to be in a dark state.
In another embodiment, the pixel circuit 10 illustrated in FIG. 32 may be an improved pixel circuit on the basis of the pixel circuit illustrated in FIG. 16, which may not be limited by the present disclosure. The pixel circuit in FIG. 16 may merely be one of circuits that are capable of being improved. Referring to FIG. 32, one end of the first light-emitting control module 191 may be connected to one of the source and drain of the driving transistor T0, and another end of the first light-emitting control module 191 may be connected to the first power signal terminal for receiving the first power signal PVDD. When the driving transistor T0 illustrated in FIG. 32 is an N-type transistor, one end of the first light-emitting control module 191 may be connected to the drain of the driving transistor T0. One end of the second light-emitting control module 192 may be connected to the other one of the source and drain of the driving transistor T0, and another end of the second light-emitting control module 192 may be coupled to the initialization signal terminal for receiving the initialization signal VAR.

The initialization signal VAR may be the bias adjustment signal, and the bias adjustment signal VAR may be transmitted to the source of the driving transistor T0 through the initialization transistor Tv and the second light-emitting control module 192, and then may be transmitted to the drain of the driving transistor T0 through the driving transistor T0.
In one embodiment, in a same mode, when the frame refresh rate of the display panel is F1, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may be A1, and the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be B1. When the frame refresh rate of the display panel is F2, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may be A2, and the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be B2, where F1<F2, and B1/A1>B2/A2. In one embodiment, when the frame refresh rate is F1, the refresh rate may be substantially small, and the time length of one refresh cycle may be substantially large. For example, when F1=1 HZ, one refresh cycle may be 1 second, and the time length of the light-emitting stage may be substantially large. When the frame refresh rate is F2, the refresh rate may be substantially large, and the time length of one refresh cycle may be substantially small. For example, when F2=60 HZ, one refresh cycle may be 1/60 second, and the time length of the light-emitting stage may be substantially small.
When the time length of the light-emitting stage is substantially large, the bias phenomenon of the driving transistor may be substantially obvious, which may require a bias adjustment stage with a substantially large time length to be cancelled out. When the time length of the light-emitting stage is substantially small, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be substantially small. Therefore, in the present disclosure, B1/A1>B2/A2. In other words, when the frame refresh rate is a substantially low frequency F1, a ratio of the time length of the bias adjustment stage over the time length of the light-emitting stage may be substantially large. When the frame refresh rate is a substantially high frequency F2, the ratio of the time length of the bias adjustment stage over the time length of the light-emitting stage may be substantially small.
Further, in one embodiment, B1>B2. When F1<F2, when the frame refresh rate is substantially small, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be substantially large. When the frame refresh rate is substantially large, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be substantially small. Therefore, the bias state of the driving transistor may be effectively adjusted at both high and low frame refresh rates.
Accordingly, the present disclosure also provides a display device. The display device may include the display panel in any one of the disclosed embodiments. FIG. 34 illustrates a schematic diagram of a display device. The display device 1000 may be a mobile terminal device. In one embodiment, the display device may be an electronic display device such as a mobile phone, a computer, a vehicle-mounted terminal, etc., which may not be limited by the present disclosure.
Accordingly, in the disclosed display panel and display device, the time length of the bias adjustment stage and the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may not change in the same proportion. When the display panel changes from the first mode to the second mode based on the changing requirements of the brightness, the time length of the non-light-emitting stage may be shortened. In view of this, the time length of the bias adjustment stage may be adjusted according to W1/L1<W2/L2, such that the time length change of the bias adjustment stage caused by the mode change of the operating state may be substantially small. In view of this, the time length of the bias adjustment stage in the second mode may be substantially large, thereby avoiding the flickering phenomenon caused by a substantially small time length of the bias adjustment stage in the second mode when adjusting the mode of the display panel. Therefore, in the present disclosure, the flickering problem of the display panel in different brightness modes may be solved, which may improve the display effect of the display device.
