CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention

Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of liquid crystal display technology, and in particular, to an array substrate having common electrode compensation lines, a liquid crystal display panel, and a display device.


Description of the Related Art

With display technology becoming mature increasingly, a higher requirement for better display quality arises. In general, a liquid crystal display panel comprises an array substrate and a color filter substrate disposed to be cell-aligned and bonded together, with a liquid crystal layer therebetween. On the array substrate, as illustrated in FIG. 1a, in order to increase aperture ratio, common electrode 01 is formed in each pixel region, e.g., by adopting transparent electrically conductive film ITO (Indium Tin Oxide); however, since ITO with its higher electrical resistance suffers from an interference originating from metallic conducting wires such as data lines, gate lines and the like on the array substrate such that a condition of a unstable voltage is induced, resulting in a risk of occurrence of greenish phenomenon.


Currently, for solving such problem, as illustrated in FIG. 1b, the common electrode 02 is designed typically in a segmented manner for charging the common electrode 01, so as to ensure a constant voltage of the common electrode 01. In order to ensure that the aperture ratio is not affected, by way of example, the common electrode compensation line 02 is arranged to overlap the data lines; however, such overlapping would introduce a non-repairable or non-serviceable failure of open-circuit or short-circuit on the data lines, resulting in a lowered product yield.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

An array substrate, a liquid crystal display panel, and a display device are provided by the exemplary embodiments of the invention.


Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in detail with reference to the attached drawings, wherein the like reference numerals refer to the like elements. The present disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms, and thus the detailed description of the embodiment of the application in view of attached drawings should not be construed as being limited to the embodiment set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the general concept of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.


In the following detailed description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. It will be apparent, however, that one or more embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are schematically shown in order to simplify the drawing.


Respective thickness and shape of each film layer in the drawings are only intended to exemplarily illustrate the contents of the disclosure, rather than to demonstrate the practical dimension or proportion of components of the array substrate.


According to a general technical concept of the present application, an array substrate is provided by an exemplary embodiment of the application, as illustrated in FIG. 2a and FIG. 2b, comprising: a substrate 10; a plurality of first signal lines 11 and a plurality of second signal lines 12 on the substrate 10, for example, the plurality of first signal lines 11 being arranged in parallel in a first layer and, for example, the plurality of second signal lines 12 being also arranged in parallel in a second layer, the plurality of first signal lines 11 being intersected with and insulated from the plurality of second signal lines 12; a plurality of pixel regions each of which is defined collectively be every two adjacent first signal lines 11 and every two adjacent second signal lines 12 intersected with the every two adjacent first signal lines 11; and a common electrode 13 located within each pixel region defined by adjacent first signal lines 11 and second signal lines 12; wherein a first common electrode compensation line 14 is arranged within each of the pixel regions provided with a minimal transmittance of pixel, the first common compensation line 14 being in electrical connection with the common electrode 13; and the first common electrode compensation line 14 is insulated from both the first signal lines 11 and the second signal lines 12.


In the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, first common electrode compensation lines are arranged within pixel regions which correspond to pixels provided with a minimal transmittance, by which first common electrode compensation lines a common electrode is charged so as to ensure a constant voltage on the common electrode. Moreover, since the first common electrode compensation lines are configured to overlap neither first signal lines nor second signal lines, a repairmen of the first signal lines or the second signal lines will not be adversely affected in case that there is short-circuit or open-circuit thereon. Besides, since the common electrode compensation lines are arranged within pixel regions provided with the lowest transmittance, the influence onto overall transmittance of the display panel is minimized relatively.


During practical implementation, for example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the pixels provided with a minimal transmittance are usually blue pixels. Therefore, during practical implementation, by way of example, the first common electrode compensation lines are arranged in pixel regions which correspond to blue pixels.


By way of example, during practical implementation, for simplifying drawings, when the pixel regions which correspond to pixels provided with minimal transmittance are arranged in a row direction on the array substrate, for example, correspondingly, the first common electrode compensation lines are arranged to extend in the row direction, and the first common electrode compensation lines within adjacent pixel regions which are arranged in the row direction are connected in series. Additionally or alternatively, when the pixel regions which correspond to pixels provided with minimal transmittance are arranged in a column direction on the array substrate, for example, correspondingly, the first common electrode compensation lines are arranged to extend in the column direction, and the first common electrode compensation lines within adjacent pixel regions which are arranged in the column direction are connected in series.


During practical implementation, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, for example, the first signal lines are data lines while the second lines are gate lines; in another exemplary embodiment, for example, the first signal lines are gate lines while the second lines are data lines. Here the specific types are not specified.


By way of example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, as illustrated in FIG. 3, each of the first common electrode compensation lines 14 comprise a first compensation line 141 which is formed by the same material as that of the first signal lines 11 and arranged in a same layer where the first signal lines 11 are located. Besides, by way of example, the first compensation line 141 is formed by the same material as that of the first signal lines 11. As such, it is only necessary to alter original pattern upon forming the first signal lines, then the first signal lines and the first compensation lines may be formed simultaneously by a single stage patterning process without adding any individual preparation process for the first compensation lines, such that the process steps may be simplified and production cost may also be saved.


During practical implementation, when the first common electrode compensation lines function as first compensation lines solely, since it is required that the first compensation lines should be arranged to be in electrical connection with the common electrode, then, the shorter the distance between the first compensation line and the common electrode is, the easier the production processes may be.


By way of example, as illustrated in FIG. 4a and FIG. 4b, the first signal lines 11 and the second signal lines 12 are arranged in different layers (the second signal lines 12 is not shown since they are arranged to be orthogonal to the first signal lines 11), and above array substrate provided by the exemplary embodiment of the invention further comprises a first insulation layer 15 located between the first signal lines 11 and the second signal lines 12; each of the first common electrode compensation lines 14 further comprises a second compensation line 142 which is formed by the same material as that of the second signal lines 12 and arranged in the same layer where the second signal lines 12 are located, and an orthographic projection of the second compensation line 142 on the substrate 10 overlaps at least partially an orthographic projection of the first compensation line 141 on the substrate 10, the second compensation line 142 being in electrical connection with the first compensation line 141 via a first via-hole V1 passing through the first insulation layer 15.


This is because that, in order to ensure a constant voltage of the common electrode, it is required to decrease the electrical resistance of the first common electrode compensation lines; however, in case that the material of the first common electrode compensation lines has been defined, it is necessary to decrease the electrical resistance by increasing areas thereof, which would result in reduction of aperture ratio. Therefore, in addition to the first common electrode compensation lines, by adding the second compensation lines which are arranged to be in electrical connection with the first common electrode compensation lines, not only is the overall electrical resistance of the common electrode compensation lines reduced so as to stabilize the voltage of the common electrode, but also for example the width of the first compensation lines can be made thinner so as to minimize the influence of the first compensation lines onto the aperture ratio of the array substrate to ensure transmittance therethrough. Moreover, since the second compensation lines are arranged in the same layer in which the second signal lines are located, hereby, by altering original pattern upon formation of the second signal lines, a pattern of the first signal lines and a pattern of the second signal lines may be formed simultaneously by a single stage patterning process without addition of any processes for preparing only the second compensation lines individually, such that the process steps may be simplified and production cost may also be saved.


By way of example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, orthographic projections of the second compensation line on the substrate coincide with orthographic projections of the first compensation line on the substrate. As such, it can be ensured that the influence of the arrangement of the second compensation lines onto the aperture ratio is minimized while the areas of the second compensation lines are maximized, such that the electrical resistance of compensation lines of the common electrode is minimized.


By way of example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, as illustrated in FIG. 3 to FIG. 4b, the common electrode 13 is located above the first common electrode compensation lines 14. A second insulation layer 16 is provided between the first common electrode compensation lines 14 and the common electrode 13, and each of the first common electrode compensation lines 14 is configured to be in electrical connection with the common electrode 13 via a second via-hole V2 passing through the second insulation layer 16.


By way of example, during practical implementation, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, when each of the first common electrode compensation lines 14 comprise the first compensation line 141 and the second compensation line 142, as illustrated in FIG. 4a, the first compensation line 141 is configured to be in electrical connection with the common electrode 13 via the second via-hole V2 passing through the second insulation layer 16, when the first signal line 11 is located above the second signal line 12.


Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 4b, the second compensation line 142 is configured to be in electrical connection with the common electrode 13 via the second via-hole V2 passing through the second insulation layer 16, when the second signal line 12 is located above the first signal line 11.


During practical implementation, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, for further stabilizing the voltage of the common electrode, as illustrated in FIGS. 5a and 5b, it further comprises a second common electrode compensation line 17 located between the second insulation layer 16 and the common electrode 13. An orthographic projection of the second common electrode compensation line 17 on the substrate 10 overlaps at least partially an orthographic projection of the first common electrode compensation line 14 on the substrate 10, and the first common electrode compensation line 14 is configured to be in electrical connection with one corresponding second common electrode compensation line 17 via a via-hole while the corresponding second common electrode compensation line 17 is in turn configured to be in direct electrical connection with the common electrode 13.


Though the voltage of the common electrode may be further stabilized by adding the second common electrode compensation line, it also increases one stage of patterning process. Therefore, during practical implementation, it is determined whether to arrange the second common electrode compensation line according to practical situation.


By way of example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, due to relatively low electrical resistivity of metal, the material of the second common electrode compensation line is chosen as metal.


Since metal materials typically functions as light-shielding materials, hereby, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, an orthographic projection of the second common electrode compensation line on the substrate coincides with an orthographic projection of the first common electrode compensation line on the substrate. As such, it may be ensured that not only is the influence of the arrangement of the second common electrode compensation line onto the aperture ratio minimized but also the electrical resistance of the second common electrode compensation line is minimized.


Alternatively, during practical implementation, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, as illustrated in FIG. 6a and FIG. 6b, it further comprises a pixel electrode 18 provided between the second insulation layer 16 and the common electrode 13, a second common electrode compensation line 17 which is formed by the same material as that of the pixel electrode 18 and arranged in a same layer where the pixel electrode 18 is located, and a third insulation layer 19 provided between the pixel electrode 18 and the common electrode 13. An orthographic projection of the second common electrode compensation line 17 on the substrate 10 is arranged to cover an orthographic projection of the first common electrode compensation line 14 on the substrate 10; and the first common electrode compensation line 14 is configured to be in electrical connection with one corresponding second common electrode compensation line 17 via a via-hole while the corresponding second common electrode compensation line 17 is in turn configured to be in electrical connection with the common electrode 13 via a third via-hole V3 passing through the third insulation layer 19.


As such, hereby, by altering original pattern upon formation of the pixel electrode, a pattern of the pixel electrode and a pattern of the second common electrode compensation line may be formed simultaneously by a single stage patterning process without addition of any processes for preparing only the second common electrode compensation line individually, such that the preparation process steps may be simplified and production cost may also be saved.


It should be noticed that, the second common electrode compensation line provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention is insulated from the first signal lines, the second signal lines and the pixel electrode.


In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, during practical implementation, in the above array substrate, when the first compensation line is located above the second compensation line, by way of example, the first compensation line is configured to be in electrical connection with the second common electrode compensation line via a via-hole; and when the second compensation line is located above the first compensation line, by way of example, the second compensation line is configured to be in electrical connection with the second common electrode compensation line via a via-hole. Furthermore, since the deeper the via-hole is, the relatively more difficult the production process may be; then, upon implementation of the electrical connection, two most adjacent layers are chosen for achieving such electrical connection.


During practical implementation, as illustrated in FIG. 5a to FIG. 6b, when the first common electrode compensation line 15 comprises the first compensation line 141 and the second compensation line 142:


As shown in FIG. 5a and FIG. 6a, the first compensation line 141 is configured to be in electrical connection with the second common electrode compensation line 17 via the second via-hole V2 passing through the second insulation layer 16, when the first signal line 11 is located above the second signal line 12.


As shown in FIG. 5b and FIG. 6b, the second compensation line 142 is configured to be in electrical connection with the second common electrode compensation line 17 via the second via-hole V2 passing through the second insulation layer 16, when the second signal line 12 is located above the first signal line 11.


By way of example, in the above array substrate provided by an exemplary embodiment of the invention, other structures or film layers such as thin film transistor and the like may be arranged on the substrate. Since the configuration of these structures and film layers are identical to those in the prior art, then detailed depictions will not be made herein.
