Description

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The disclosure relates to a display technology field, and more particularly to an array substrate, a liquid crystal display panel and a display device.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

With the development of display technology, flat display devices such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have advantages such as high image quality, power saving, thin body and wide application range. It is widely used in various consumer electronic products such as mobile phones, televisions, personal digital assistants, digital cameras, notebook computers, and desktop computers.

Most of the liquid crystal display devices on the market are manufacturing methods of a backlight type color film substrate, which include a liquid crystal display panel and a backlight module. Generally, a liquid crystal display panel includes a color filter (CF) substrate, an array substrate, and a liquid crystal (LC) sandwiched between the color filter substrate and the array substrate.

The liquid crystal display panel is subjected to pressure during the preparation or use, and the upper and lower substrates may be misaligned after the surface of the liquid crystal display panel is subjected to pressure. Moreover, since the photo spacer (PS) has insufficient elastic restoring force or cannot be reset by the side groove of the array substrate, the misalignment does not disappear after the pressure on the surface of the liquid crystal display panel disappears. At this time, part of the gate electrode and the common electrode are exposed at the opening area of the CF, and the liquid crystal between the gate electrode and the common electrode in the dark state is deflected by the voltage difference between the gate electrode and the common electrode. As a result, the position is bright, and there is a visually obvious light leakage phenomenon.

The embodiment of the disclosure provides an array substrate, and the array substrate provided by the embodiment includes:

a substrate 1;

a common electrode 4 and a gate electrode 2, wherein the common electrode 4 and the gate electrode 2 are disposed on the substrate 1; and

In the embodiment of the disclosure, the shielding electrode 7 is disposed on the common electrode 4 and the gate electrode 2, and the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 7 on the substrate 1 is overlapped with the orthographic projection of the gate electrode 2 on the substrate 1 as well as the orthographic projection of the common electrode 4 on the substrate 1 such that the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 7 on the substrate 1 can simultaneously overlap the orthographic projection of the gate electrode 2 on the substrate 1 and the orthographic projection of the common electrode 4 on the substrate 1. At the same time, the shielding electrode 7 is also electrically connected to the common electrode 4, so that the voltage of the shielding electrode 7 is the same as the voltage of the common electrode 4, so that the voltage of the gate electrode 2 can be shielded, and there is no voltage difference between the shielding electrode 7 and the CF substrate. In the case where the upper and lower substrates of the liquid crystal display panel are displaced by the pressure, the liquid crystal at the position of the shielding electrode 7 can maintain the vertical state without the influence of the voltage difference, and there is no light leakage, which can improve the effect of the push mura.

Specifically, the material of the substrate 1 may be a semiconductor material such as glass or quartz, or may be an organic polymer or the like.

The gate electrode 2 is configured to receive the gate electrode voltage and control the on or off of the source and the drain of the thin film transistor under the control of the gate electrode voltage.

In addition, the material of the gate electrode 2 is not limited in the embodiment of the disclosure, and the material of the gate electrode 2 may be a conductive material. The material of the gate electrode 2 may include a copper-based metal such as copper (Cu), copper-molybdenum alloy (Cu/Mo), copper-titanium alloy (Cu/Ti), copper-molybdenum-titanium alloy (Cu/Mo/Ti), copper-molybdenum-tungsten alloy (Cu/Mo/W), copper-molybdenum-niobium alloy (Cu/Mo/Nb), or the like; the material of the gate electrode 2 may also be a chromium-based metal, such as a chromium-molybdenum alloy (Cr/Mo), a chromium-titanium alloy (Cr/Ti), a chromium-molybdenum-titanium alloy (Cr/Mo/Ti), or the like; the material of the gate electrode 2 may also be aluminum or aluminum alloy or the like.

The common electrode 4 is used for inputting a common signal, and supplies a common voltage to the pixel electrode 8, thereby providing a bias voltage for the corresponding liquid crystal in the liquid crystal display panel to form an electric field to drive the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer to rotate.

Specifically, the shielding electrode 7 of the embodiment of the disclosure is used for electrically connecting with the common electrode 4, and the voltage of the shielding electrode 7 and the voltage of the common electrode 4 are the same, so that there is no voltage difference between the shielding electrode 7 and the CF substrate. And the orthographic projection of the shielding electrode 7 on the substrate 1 is overlapped with the orthographic projection of the gate electrode 2 on the substrate 1 as well as the orthographic projection of the common electrode 4 on the substrate 1 so as to function to shield the voltage of the gate electrode 2. Therefore, when the upper and lower substrates of the liquid crystal display panel are misaligned by the pressure, the liquid crystal between the gate electrode and the common electrode is not affected by the voltage difference, so that the vertical state can be maintained without leaking light.

The shielding electrode 7 is different from the material of the common electrode 4, wherein the common electrode 4 is generally metal, and the material of the shielding electrode 7 may be ITO (indium tin oxide), or may be AZO (aluminum zinc oxide) or the like.

Preferably, the material of the shielding electrode 7 is ITO, wherein the ITO has good chemical stability, thermal stability and good graphic processing characteristics. The shielding electrode 7 is different from the material of the common electrode 4, and it is possible to further ensure that there is no voltage difference between the shielding electrode 7 and the CF substrate, and no light leakage occurs, further improving the purpose of the push mura.

Preferably, for one pixel, the shielding electrode 7 should be added to the wide side of its corresponding pixel (the pixel includes a long side and a wide side, wherein the size of the wide side is larger than the size of the long side). Since the wide side of the pixel is the most leaky and the wide side occupies the largest proportion of light leakage, the shielding electrode 7 is added to the wide side of the corresponding pixel, which can more effectively improve the light leakage phenomenon.

The array substrate of the embodiment of the disclosure further includes a passivation layer 5 between the shielding electrode 7 and the common electrode 4, in order to better achieve the phenomenon of preventing light leakage. The passivation layer 5 serves to reduce the influence of defects which may be in the common electrode 4 on the electrical properties of the shielding electrode 7 or the influence of defects which may be in the shielding electrode 7 on the electrical properties of the common electrode 4. The shielding electrode 7 and the common electrode 4 are also electrically connected through the passivation layer 5. Therefore, when the passivation layer 5 ensures the electrical properties of the common electrode 4 and the shielding electrode 7, it is also possible to ensure that there is no voltage difference between the shielding electrode 7 and the CF substrate, thereby further optimizing the effect of improving the push mura.

In addition, the material of the passivation layer 5 is not limited in the embodiment of the disclosure, and may be, for example, silicon nitride, silicon oxide or silicon oxynitride.

The common electrode 4 and the shielding electrode 7 are electrically connected through the via structure 6, and the via structure 6 penetrates through the passivation layer 5, so that the common electrode 4 and the shielding electrode 7 are electrically connected. The voltage of the shielding electrode 7 is made the same as the voltage of the common electrode 4, and there is no voltage difference between the shielding electrode 7 and the CF substrate. When the upper and lower substrates of the liquid crystal display panel are displaced by the pressure, no light leakage occurs. The manner in which the via structure 6 is provided in the passivation layer 5 is simple and easy to implement, and at the same time, the protection effect of the passivation layer 5 on the electrical properties of the common electrode 4 and the shielding electrode 7 can be ensured.

In addition, the embodiment of the disclosure does not limit the size of the via structure 6, and may be, for example, 3-10 mm.

Further, the array substrate of the embodiment of the disclosure further includes an insulating layer 3 between the common electrode 4 and the gate electrode 2. The insulating layer 3 serves to isolate the common electrode 4 and the gate electrode 2 such that electrical insulation is formed between the common electrode 4 and the gate electrode 2.

In addition, the arrangement of insulating layer 3 is not limited in the embodiment of the disclosure, please refer to FIG. 3, the insulating layer 3 may disposed between the shielding electrode 7 and the common electrode 4, herein the common electrode 4 is disposed in the same layer as the gate electrode 2, and the via structure 6 penetrates through the passivation layer 5 and the insulating layer 3, so that the common electrode 4 and the shielding electrode 7 are electrically connected.

In addition, the material of the insulating layer 3 is not limited in the embodiment of the disclosure, and may be, for example, silicon nitride, or other materials such as silicon oxide and silicon oxynitride.

Further, the array substrate of the embodiment of the disclosure further includes a pixel electrode 8 for applying an electric field to control the degree of rotation of the liquid crystal molecules to perform a display operation. For example, the gate electrode of the thin film transistor of each pixel unit is electrically connected or integrally formed with the corresponding gate line, and the source electrode is electrically connected or integrally formed with the corresponding data line, and the drain electrode is electrically connected or integrally formed with the corresponding pixel electrode.

The pixel electrode 8 is disposed in the same layer as the shielding electrode 7 and insulated from the shielding electrode 7, and the pixel electrode 8 and the common electrode 4 are insulated by the passivation layer 5. Thereby, the influence of the defects which may be in the common electrode 4 on the electrical properties of the pixel electrode 8 or the defects which may be in the pixel electrode 8 on the electrical properties of the common electrode 4 are eliminated. The shielding electrode 7 is disposed in the same layer as the pixel electrode 8, so that in the preparation, the pattern of the shielding electrode 7 and the pattern of the pixel electrode 8 can be formed by one patterning process. No need to add a new preparation process, only need to change the pattern of the corresponding film layer can be achieved, simplifying the process steps, saving production costs and improving production efficiency.

In order to facilitate the preparation of the shielding electrode 7, the shielding electrode 7 and the pixel electrode 8 may be provided in the same material, for example, either ITO or AZO.

Preferably, the material of the shielding electrode 7 and the pixel electrode 8 is ITO.

The source electrode, the drain electrode, and the active layer are disposed in the same layer, and are all located on the insulating layer 3.

See FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic structural view of a conventional array substrate. At present, most of the liquid crystal display panels have a pixel aspect ratio of 3:1, and the pixels are arranged in a vertical arrangement. Wherein the number of Source IC pins is three times the number of Gate IC pins, so multiple Source ICs are needed. In order to reduce costs, some products will use Tri-gate (three-dimensional transistor) design. For example, a 32-inch liquid crystal display panel using Tri-gate technology has a pixel aspect ratio of 1:3, and the pixels are arranged in a row, which can save ⅔ of the Source IC, which is more cost-effective than the common design. However, for the liquid crystal display panel using the Tri-gate technology, the area of the bright area in the tri-gate design is three times that of the ordinary design, and there is a visually obvious phenomenon of push mura.

The structure of the array substrate of the embodiment of the disclosure is more effective for improving the light leakage phenomenon of the liquid crystal display panel designed by the Tri-gate method. The liquid crystal display panel designed by the Tri-gate method can effectively improve the light leakage phenomenon when the upper and lower substrates of the liquid crystal display panel are displaced by the pressure.
