As shown in FIG. 10, the display apparatus may include multiple sub-pixels L0 and multiple pixel circuits. The multiple pixel circuits are connected one-to-one to the multiple sub-pixels L0. The multiple sub-pixels L0 include multiple first sub-pixels, multiple second sub-pixels, and multiple third sub-pixels. Light-emitting colors of the first sub-pixels, the second sub-pixels, and the third sub-pixels are different from each other. For example, the first sub-pixels emit red light, the second sub-pixels emit green light, and the third sub-pixels emit blue light. The above multiple sub-pixels L0 may be distributed in a manner of an array and form multiple sub-pixel rows 8 and multiple sub-pixel columns 9.

The first storage sub-circuit 7 is connected between a first node N1 and a second node N2. The driving sub-circuit 6 is connected to the first node N1, a third node N3, and a fourth node N4, to control connection or disconnection between the third node N3 and the fourth node N4 under control of the first node N1. The third node N3 is connected to a first power supply terminal VDD. The light-emitting control sub-circuit 5 is connected to the fourth node N4 and a first electrode of a sub-pixel L0, to control connection or disconnection between the fourth node N4 and the first electrode of the sub-pixel L0. The second storage sub-circuit 10 is connected to the first node N1, to store a potential of the first node N1. The data writing sub-circuit 1 is connected to the second node N2, to input a voltage to the second node N2. The compensation sub-circuit 2 is connected to a first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n) and the first node N1. Where, the compensation sub-circuit 2 is further connected to the third node N3, to control connection or disconnection between the first node N1 and the third node N3 under control of the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n); or, the compensation sub-circuit 2 is further connected to the fourth node N4, to control connection or disconnection between the first node N1 and the fourth node N4 under the control of the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n).

In the light-emitting stage S4, a gate-source voltage of the driving transistor T3 is Vgs=VN1−Vdd=Vth+ΔV*C1/(C1+C2); and the driving transistor T3 works in a saturation region, and a calculation formula for a light-emitting current Ioled of the driving transistor T3 is:

$\mathrm{Ioled}=\frac{k}{2}{\left(\mathrm{Vgs}-\mathrm{Vth}\right)}^2=\frac{k}{2}{\left(\Delta V\times \frac{C1}{C1+C2}\right)}^2;$

where there is k=μ*Cox*(W/L), μ is a mobility of the driving transistor T3, Cox is a gate oxide layer capacitance, and W/L is a width to length ratio of a channel of the driving transistor T3. From the calculation formula for Ioled, it can be seen that a size of Ioled is independent of the potential (Vdd) of the first power supply terminal VDD and the threshold voltage (Vth) of the driving transistor T3. Therefore, compensation is achieved for the potential (Vdd) of the first power supply terminal VDD and the threshold voltage (Vth) of the driving transistor T3, which may result in better display uniformity.

The working process of the pixel circuit in FIG. 2 is explained in detail below, in combination with the working timing diagram of the pixel circuit shown in FIG. 3(b). Where, taking the above transistor being the P-type transistor as an example, the on-level is the low level.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3(b), in the initialization stage S1, the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n), the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM1(n), and the second light-emitting control signal terminal EM2(n) are high; the reset signal terminal Gate1(n−1) and the second scanning signal terminal Gate2(n) are low; the first reset transistor T1 is turned on; the potential VN1 of the first node N1 is written as Vinit1 by the first initialization signal terminal Init1; the data writing transistor T4 is turned on; the data signal terminal Data inputs the first voltage (VH) to the second node N2, that is, the potential VN2 of the second node N2 is written as VH by the data signal terminal Data; and the voltage across the first capacitor C1 is reset.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3(b), in the compensation stage S2, the reset signal terminal Gate1(n−1) and the second light-emitting control signal terminal EM2(n) are high; the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n), the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM1(n), and the second scanning signal terminal Gate2(n) are low; the second reset transistor T7 is turned on; the first electrode of the sub-pixel L0 is reset; the first light-emitting control transistor T5, the driving transistor T3, and the compensation transistor T2 are turned on; the first power supply terminal VDD is connected to the first node N1; when the potential VN1 of the first node N1 is written as [Vdd+Vth (T3)], the driving transistor T3 is turned off; the data writing transistor T4 remains on; and the potential VN2 of the second node N2 remains VH. It can be seen that compared with the working timing diagram shown in FIG. 3(a), in the working timing diagram shown in FIG. 3(b), the working processes of the pixel circuit in the initialization stage S1 and compensation stage S2 are consistent with the working processes of the pixel circuit in the initialization stage S1 and compensation stage S2 in FIG. 3(a).

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3(b), in the data writing stage S3, when t0<time t<(t0+T), the potential of the data signal terminal Data changes from the first voltage (VH) to the second voltage (VL), the second scanning signal terminal Gate2(n) is low, and the data writing transistor T4 is turned on. At the moment t0, the data signal terminal Data inputs the second voltage (VL) to the second node N2, that is, the potential VN2 of the second node N2 changes from VH to VL; and under the coupling effect of the first capacitor C1, the potential VN1(t0) of the first node N1 at the moment t0 also changes, specifically as follows:

$\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0\right)=\mathrm{Vdd}+\mathrm{Vth}+\Delta V*C1/\left(C1+C2\right);$

At the moment t0, the gate-source voltage Vgs of the driving transistor T3 is:

$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0\right)=\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0\right)-\mathrm{Vdd}=\mathrm{Vth}+\Delta V*C1/\left(C1+C2\right);& \mathrm{formula}1\end{array}$

where ΔV is a change in the potential, from VH to VL, of the data signal terminal Data, that is, ΔV=VL−VH.

When t0<time t<(t0+T), the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n) and the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM1(n) remain low, and the first power supply terminal VDD continues to charge the first node N1. Where, the above first stage is a stage between the moment t0 and the moment (t0+T).

At the moment (t0+T), because the first power supply terminal VDD continues to charge the first node N1 within the time T, the potential VN1(t0+T) of the first node N1 at the moment (t0+T) increases by ΔW compared with VN1(t0), specifically as follows:

$\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0+T\right)=\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0\right)+\Delta W=\mathrm{Vdd}+\mathrm{Vth}+\Delta V*C1/\left(C1+C2\right)+\Delta W.$

At the moment (t0+T), the gate-source voltage Vgs of the driving transistor T3 is:

$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0+T\right)=\mathrm{VN}\left(t0+T\right)-\mathrm{Vdd}=\mathrm{Vth}+\Delta V*C1/\left(C1+C2\right)+\Delta W.& \mathrm{formula}2\end{array}$

The following formula may be obtained from the formulas 1 and 2:

$\begin{array}{cc}\Delta W=\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0+T\right)-\mathrm{VN}1\left(t0\right)=\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0+T\right)-\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0\right).& \mathrm{formula}3\end{array}$

The following formula may be obtained from according to charge conservation:

$\begin{array}{cc}\left(C1+C2\right)\frac{\mathrm{dVgs}}{\mathrm{dt}}+\frac{k}{2}{\left(\mathrm{Vgs}-\mathrm{Vth}\right)}^2=0.& \mathrm{formula}4\end{array}$

In the formula 4, there is k=μ*Cox*(W/L), μ is the mobility of the driving transistor T3, Cox is the gate oxide layer capacitance, and W/L is the width to length ratio of the channel of the driving transistor T3.

The following formula may be obtained by performing integration on the formula 4:

$\begin{array}{cc}\underset{\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0\right)}{\overset{\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0+T\right)}{\int }}\frac{-1}{{\left(\mathrm{Vgs}-\mathrm{Vth}\right)}^2}\mathrm{dVgs}=\underset{t0}{\overset{t0+T}{\int }}\frac{k}{2\left(C1+C2\right)}\mathrm{dt}.& \mathrm{formula}5\end{array}$

The following formula may be obtained from the formula 5:

$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0+T\right)=\mathrm{Vth}+\frac{1}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{kT}}{2\left(C1+C2\right)}+\frac{C1+C2}{\Delta V*C1}\right)}.& \mathrm{formula}6\end{array}$

The following formula may be obtained from the formulas 1, 3, and 6:

$\Delta W=\frac{1}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{kT}}{2\left(C1+C2\right)}+\frac{C1+C2}{\Delta V*C1}\right)}-\frac{\Delta V*C1}{C1+C2}.$

Where, in the data writing stage S3, when the time t>(t0+T), the gate-source voltage of the driving transistor T3 remains unchanged. The above second stage is a stage, from the moment (t0+T) to an end moment (the moment t1), in the data writing stage S3.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3(b), in the light-emitting stage S4, the reset signal terminal Gate1(n−1), the first scanning signal terminal Gate1(n), and the second scanning signal terminal Gate2(n) are high; the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM1(n) and the second light-emitting control signal terminal EM2(n) are low; the first light-emitting control transistor T5 and the second light-emitting control transistor T6 are turned on; and the sub-pixel L0 emits light.

In the light-emitting stage S4, the gate-source voltage of the driving transistor T3 is:

$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Vgs}-\mathrm{Vgs}\left(t0+T\right)=\mathrm{Vth}+\frac{1}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{kT}}{2\left(C1+C2\right)}+\frac{C1+C2}{\Delta V*C1}\right)};& \mathrm{formula}7\end{array}$

The driving transistor T3 works in the saturation region, and the calculation formula for the light-emitting current Ioled of the driving transistor T3 is:

$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Ioled}=\frac{k}{2}{\left(\mathrm{Vgs}-\mathrm{Vth}\right)}^2=\frac{k}{2}{\left(\frac{1}{\left(\frac{kT}{2\left(C1+C2\right)}\right)+\frac{C1+C2}{\Delta V*C1}}\right)}^2.& \mathrm{formula}8\end{array}$

In related technologies, when the mobility drifts, a value of the light-emitting current changes. For example, when the mobility increases, the light-emitting current increases. In the present disclosure, it can be seen from the formula 7 and the calculation formula for the light-emitting current Ioled that: when the mobility increases, the gate-source voltage Vgs of the driving transistor T3 decreases, thereby suppressing the increase of Ioled and achieving the compensation for the drift of the mobility, and an effect of the compensation may be adjusted by adjusting the size of the time T. Meanwhile, the size of Ioled is independent of the potential (Vdd) of the first power supply terminal VDD and the threshold voltage (Vth) of the driving transistor T3, and therefore, the compensation is achieved for the potential (Vdd) of the first power supply terminal VDD and the threshold voltage (Vth) of the driving transistor T3, which may result in better display uniformity.
