FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an electronic paper display panel according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1, the present application discloses an electronic paper display panel 10. The electronic paper display panel 10 includes an electrophoretic layer 20 and an array substrate 30. The electrophoretic layer 20 is disposed on the array substrate 30. The array substrate 30 is used to drive the electrophoretic particles in the electrophoretic layer 20 to move to display an image.


The present application further discloses an array substrate 30, which can be used in the display device described above. For the array substrate 30, the present application provides the following designs.



FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a first metal layer shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a second metal layer shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIGS. 2-5, the present application discloses an array substrate 30 for use in an electronic paper display panel 10. The array substrate 30 includes a base 110, and a first metal layer 120, a first insulating layer 130, a second metal layer 140, a second insulating layer 150, and a pixel electrode layer 160 that are sequentially arranged on the base 110.


The array substrate 30 further includes a main common electrode set 200 and a main drain electrode set 300. The main common electrode set 200 is located in the first metal layer 120 or in the second metal layer 140. The main drain electrode set 300 is located in the first metal layer 120 or in the second metal layer 140. The main common electrode set 200 and the main drain electrode set 300 are arranged opposite to each other and are located in different layers. The pixel electrode layer 160 is connected to the main drain electrode set 300.


The main common electrode set 200 includes a plurality of main common electrode blocks 210 and a main common electrode connection line 220. The plurality of main common electrode blocks 210 are arranged at intervals. Two ends of the main common electrode connection line 220 are respectively connected to two adjacent main common electrode blocks 210. The main drain electrode set 300 includes a plurality of main drain electrode blocks 310 and a main drain electrode connection line 320. The plurality of main drain electrode blocks 310 are arranged at intervals. Two ends of the main drain electrode connection line 320 are respectively connected to two adjacent main drain electrode blocks 310.


An orthogonal projection of each main common electrode block 210 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with an orthogonal projection of the respective main drain electrode block 310 on the base 110 to form a storage capacitor, i.e., a main storage capacitor.


The array substrate 30 further includes a common electrode. The array substrate 30 also includes a common electrode, which is arranged opposite to the pixel electrode layer 160. The electrophoretic layer 20 is arranged between the common electrode and the pixel electrode layer 160. An electric field generated between the common electrode and the pixel electrode layer 160 drives the electrophoretic particles in the electrophoretic layer 20 into motion. The common electrode is connected to the main common electrode set 200. Multiple storage capacitors are formed between the main common electrode set 200 and the main drain electrode set 300.


The active switch in the array substrate 30 may be a top gate structure or a bottom gate structure. When the active switch in the array substrate 30 is a bottom gate structure, the main common electrode set 200 is located in the first metal layer 120, and the main drain electrode set 300 is located in the second metal layer 140. When the active switch is a top gate structure, the main common electrode set 200 is located in the second metal layer 140, and the main drain electrode set 300 is located in the first metal layer 120. This application takes the active switch of a bottom gate structure as an example for explanation, that is, the main common electrode set 200 is located in the first metal layer 120, and the main drain electrode set 300 is located in the second metal layer 140.


Compared with other possible storage capacitor solutions, the present application sets multiple connected main common electrode blocks 210 to overlap or coincide with multiple connected main drain electrode blocks 310. One main common electrode block 210 overlaps or coincides with one main drain electrode block 310 to form a storage capacitor, which is equivalent to dividing a complete one-piece common electrode and drain electrode into multiple connected areas. When one of the storage capacitors is damaged, the main common electrode connection line 220 of the corresponding main common electrode block 210 and the main drain electrode connection line 320 of the corresponding main drain electrode block 310 may be cut off by laser to disconnect the damaged storage capacitor thereby ensuring that the normal operation of other storage capacitors is not affected.



FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of an auxiliary common electrode set and an auxiliary drain electrode set according to an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of a first metal layer shown in FIG. 6. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of a second metal layer shown in FIG. 6. As shown in FIGS. 6-8, when a storage capacitor is damaged, it is needed to cut off the main common electrode connection line 220 of the corresponding main common electrode block 210 and the main drain electrode connection line 320 of the corresponding main drain electrode block 310. This will cause the total amount of storage capacitors in the pixel region 170 to be lower than the total amount of storage capacitors in other pixel regions 170, so that the display image corresponding to this pixel region 170 is different from the display images corresponding to other pixel regions 170. Therefore, the present application further sets a secondary storage capacitor in the pixel region 170, as follows.


The main common electrode set 200 further includes a first main common electrode welding line 231. One end of the first main common electrode welding line 231 is connected to the respective main common electrode block 210. The main drain electrode set 300 further includes a first main drain electrode welding line 331. One end of the first main drain electrode welding line 331 is connected to the respective main drain electrode block 310. The main common electrode block 210 connected to the first main common electrode welding line 231 overlaps or coincides with the main drain electrode block 310 connected to the first main drain electrode welding line 331. That is, the projection of the main common electrode block 210 connected to the first main common electrode welding line 231 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with the projection of main drain electrode block 310 connected to the first main drain electrode welding line 331 on the base 110.


The array substrate 30 as illustrated in e.g. FIG. 1 further includes an auxiliary common electrode set 400 and an auxiliary drain electrode set 500. The auxiliary common electrode set 400 is located in a different layer from the main common electrode set 200. The auxiliary drain electrode set 500 is located in a different layer from the main drain electrode set 300. The auxiliary common electrode set 400 is located in the second metal layer 140, and the auxiliary drain electrode set 500 is located in the first metal layer 120. The main common electrode block 210 and the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 may be arranged in the same layer, and the main drain electrode block 310 and the auxiliary common electrode block 410 may be arranged in the same layer. Of course, it is also possible that the main common electrode set 200 and the auxiliary drain electrode set 500 are arranged in the same layer, and the main drain electrode set 300 and the auxiliary common electrode set 400 are arranged in the same layer. Thereby, the manufacturing process of the array substrate 30 can be reduced.


The auxiliary common electrode set 400 further includes at least one auxiliary common electrode block 410 and a first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431. One end of the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 is connected to the auxiliary common electrode block 410. The end of the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 facing away from the auxiliary common electrode block 410 is located on a different layer than the end of the first main common electrode welding line 231 facing away from the main common electrode block 210. An orthogonal projection of the end of the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 facing away from the auxiliary common electrode on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with an orthogonal projection of the end of the first main common electrode welding line 231 facing away from the main common electrode block 210 on the base 110. The first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 and the first main common electrode welding line 231 can be connected together by laser welding the overlapping position.


The auxiliary drain electrode set 500 further includes at least one auxiliary drain electrode block 510 and a first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531. One end of the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 is connected to the auxiliary drain electrode block 510. The end of the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 facing away from the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 is located in a different layer from the end of the first main drain electrode welding line 331 facing away from the main drain electrode block 310. An orthographic projection of the end of the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 facing away from the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with an orthographic projection of the end of the first main drain electrode welding line 331 facing away from the main drain electrode block 310 on the base 110. The first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 and the first main drain electrode welding line 331 can be connected together by laser welding the overlapping position.


The orthogonal projection of the auxiliary common electrode block 410 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with the orthogonal projection of the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 on the base 110 to form a secondary storage capacitor. The auxiliary common electrode block 410 connected to the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 overlaps or coincides with the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected to the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531. That is, the projection of the auxiliary common electrode block 410 connected to the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with the projection of the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected to the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 on the base 110, and they can be connected together by laser welding the overlapping part.


Therefore, when the main storage capacitor formed by a set of a main common electrode block 210 and a main drain electrode block 310 in the main common electrode set 200 and the main drain electrode set 300 is damaged, the main common electrode connection line 220 of the main common electrode block 210 and the main drain electrode connection line 320 of the main drain electrode block 310 may be first cut by laser to disconnect the main storage capacitor of this set. Then the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 and the first main drain electrode welding line 331 are laser welded, and the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 and the first main common electrode welding line 231 are laser welded, so that the auxiliary storage capacitor formed by the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 and the auxiliary common electrode block 410 is used to compensate for the damaged main storage capacitor. Thus, the total amount of storage capacitors corresponding to each pixel region 170 is equal.


That is, a main storage capacitor is formed between the main common electrode block 210 and the main drain electrode block 310, and a secondary storage capacitor is formed between the auxiliary common electrode block 410 and the auxiliary drain electrode block 510. The size of the auxiliary storage capacitor formed by the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 and the auxiliary common electrode block 410 may be consistent with the size of the main storage capacitor formed by the main drain electrode block 310 and the main common electrode block 210.

As shown in FIG. 15-17, the area occupied by the secondary storage capacitor in a single pixel region 170 can be further reduced by sharing the secondary storage capacitor between two adjacent pixel regions 170, so that the total capacity of the main storage capacitor in a single pixel region 170 can be increased.


In particular, the array substrate 30 also includes data lines 141 and scan lines 121. The data lines 141 and the scan lines 121 are arranged in a crisscross pattern thus defining a plurality of pixel regions 170. Each pixel region 170 includes the main common electrode set 200, the main drain electrode set 300, the auxiliary common electrode set 400, and the auxiliary drain electrode set 500. Two adjacent pixel regions 170 along the length orientation of the scan line 121 are designated as the first pixel region 171 and the second pixel region 172. The scan lines 121, the main common electrode set 200, and the auxiliary drain electrode set 500 are arranged in a same layer. The data lines 141, the main drain electrode set 300, and the auxiliary common electrode set 400 are arranged in a same layer.


The array substrate 30 further includes a first common electrode jumper line 610, a second common electrode jumper line 620, and a common electrode different layer connection line 810. The first common electrode jumper line 610 and the second common electrode jumper line 620 are located in the same layer and they are also in the same layer as the auxiliary common electrode set 400. The common electrode different layer connection line 810 is located in a same layer as the auxiliary drain electrode set 500.


One end of the first common electrode jumper line 610 is connected to the auxiliary common electrode block 410 in the first pixel region 171. One end of the second common electrode jumper line 620 is connected to the auxiliary common electrode block 410 in the second pixel region 172. The orthographic projections of the two ends of the common electrode different layer connection line 810 on the base 110 respectively overlap or coincides with the orthographic projection of the other end of the first common electrode jumper line 610 on the base 110 and the orthographic projection of the other end of the second common electrode jumper line 620 on the base 110. The first common electrode jumper line 610 and the second common electrode jumper line 620 can be connected together by laser welding the overlapping parts.


The array substrate 30 also includes a first drain electrode jumper line 710, a second drain electrode jumper line 720, and a drain electrode different layer connection line 820. The first drain electrode jumper line 710 and the second drain electrode jumper line 720 are arranged in the same layer and in the same layer as the auxiliary drain electrode set 500. The drain electrode different layer connection line 820 is located in the same layer as the auxiliary common electrode set 400. One end of the first drain electrode jumper line 710 is connected to the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 in the first pixel region 171. One end of the second drain electrode jumper line 720 is connected to the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 in the second pixel region 172. The orthographic projections of both ends of the drain electrode different layer connection line 820 on the base 110 overlap or coincide with the orthographic projection of the other end of the first drain electrode jumper line 710 on the base 110 and the orthographic projection of the other end of the second drain electrode jumper line 720 on the base 110 respectively. The first drain electrode jumper line 710 and the second drain electrode jumper line 720 can be connected together by laser welding the overlapping parts.


Since the auxiliary common electrode set 400, the drain electrode different layer connection line 820, and the data lines 141 are arranged in the same layer, it is needed to extend the end of the first drain electrode jumper line 710 facing away from the first pixel region 171 to the second pixel region 172, or extend the end of the second drain electrode jumper line 720 facing away from the second pixel region 172 to the first pixel region 171, so that the drain electrode different layer connection line 820 avoids the position of the data line 141.


The auxiliary common electrode block 410 connected by the first common electrode jumper line 610 in the first pixel region 171 overlaps or coincides with the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected by the first drain electrode jumper line 710 in the first pixel region 171. That is, the orthogonal projection of the auxiliary common electrode block 410 connected by the first common electrode jumper line 610 in the first pixel region 171 on the base 110 overlaps or coincides with the orthogonal projection of the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected by the first drain electrode jumper line 710 in the first pixel region 171 on the base 110, thus forming a secondary storage capacitor.

Since the first pixel region 171 can use the secondary storage capacitor in the second pixel region 172, it is equivalent to doubling the available secondary storage capacitors in a pixel region 170 without increasing the number of secondary storage capacitors in a single pixel region 170. When the secondary storage capacitors in a first pixel region 171 is insufficient, the secondary storage capacitors in the second pixel region 172 can be used by connecting the first common electrode jumper line 610 to the second common electrode jumper line 620 and the first drain electrode jumper line 710 to the second drain electrode jumper line 720.



FIG. 18 is a schematic diagram illustrating a connection between the secondary storage capacitors of two adjacent pixel regions according to an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 19 is a schematic diagram of a first metal layer shown in FIG. 18. FIG. 20 is a schematic diagram of a second metal layer shown in FIG. 18. As shown in FIG. 18-20, further, the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected to the second drain electrode jumper line 720 in the second pixel region 172 is not the same as the auxiliary drain electrode block 510 connected to the first auxiliary drain electrode welding line 531 in the second pixel region 172.


The auxiliary common electrode block 410 to which the second common electrode jumper line 620 is connected in the second pixel region 172 is not the same as the auxiliary common electrode block 410 to which the first auxiliary common electrode welding line 431 in the second pixel region 172 is connected.


In this way, when the secondary storage capacitors in the first pixel region 171 are insufficient, the secondary storage capacitors in the second pixel region 172 can be used without affecting the subsequent use of other sub-storage capacitors in the second pixel region 172, thereby improving the repair capability.
