DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS


FIG. 1 is a partial schematic top view of an electronic device. In FIG. 1, an electronic device 100′ includes a substrate 110, a plurality of transversal signal lines 120, a plurality of vertical signal lines 130, and a plurality of pixel structures 140. The pixel structures 140 are arranged on the substrate 110 in an array. In other words, the pixel structures 140 are arranged in an array along a first direction D1 and a second direction D2 intersected with the first direction D1, where the first direction D1 may be interpreted as a transversal direction, and the second direction D2 may be interpreted as a vertical direction. Therefore, the transversal and vertical directions described in the following embodiments may be respectively regarded as the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 in FIG. 1. Each of the pixel structures 140 is connected to one of the transversal signal lines 120. In addition, the vertical signal lines 130 may be divided into vertical signal lines DL directly connected to the pixel structures 140 and vertical signal lines VL not directly connected to the pixel structures 140. The pixel structures 140 arranged in a column along the second direction D2 are sandwiched between two vertical signal lines DL, and each of the pixel structures 140 is connected to one of the vertical signal lines DL. In some embodiments, the different pixel structures 140 arranged in the same column along the second direction D2 may be respectively connected to the vertical signal line DL on a first side and the vertical signal line DL on an opposite second side. Each of the vertical signal lines VL is sandwiched between two columns of the pixel structures 140 and two of the vertical signal lines DL. In some embodiments, the vertical signal lines VL include vertical signal lines VL1 connected to the transversal signal line 120 through corresponding conducting structures VIA, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In some embodiment, each of the pixel structures 140 may include an active device 142 and a pixel electrode 144 connected to the active device 142, where each active device 142 may be a transistor having a gate, a source, and a drain, and the gate may be connected to one of the transversal signal lines 120, the source is connected to one of the vertical signal lines DL, and the drain is connected to the pixel electrode 144. Moreover, each of the transversal signal lines 120 is connected to one of the vertical signal lines VL1. Therefore, a signal of the gate of the active device 142 may be transmitted from the vertical signal line VL1 to the transversal signal line 120, and then input to the gate by the transversal signal line 120. To be specific, in order to avoid a short circuit between the transversal signal lines 120 and the vertical signal lines 130, the transversal signal lines 120 and the vertical signal lines 130 may be formed by different film layers, and there may be one or a plurality of insulating layers sandwiched between the transversal signal lines 120 and the vertical signal lines 130. In some embodiments, in order to transmit the signal from the vertical signal line VL1 to the transversal signal line 120, the conducting structure VIA may be configured between the corresponding vertical signal line VL1 and the transversal signal line 120. In this way, the signal required by the gate may be transmitted to the transversal signal line 120 from the vertical signal line VL1 through the conducting structure VIA, and then transmitted to the gate from the transversal signal line 120.


In some embodiments, the electronic device 100′ may further include a driving circuit IC, and the driving circuit IC is located at one end of the vertical signal line 130. The vertical signal lines DL and the vertical signal lines VL1 may directly receive signals provided by the driving circuit IC, and the transversal signal lines 120 may receive the corresponding signals through the vertical signal lines VL1. In this way, it is unnecessary to configure wires or related circuits used for transmitting signals at two ends of the electronic device 100′ in the first direction D1, so as to achieve a narrow border design, and a contour of the electronic device 100′ is not limited. For example, from a top-view perspective, the electronic device 100′ may have a non-rectangular contour. In some embodiments, the vertical signal lines VL in the electronic device 100′ may further include vertical signal lines VL2, and the vertical signal lines VL2 may not be used to transmit the signals required by the transversal signal lines 120, but may be input with a DC potential. For example, the vertical signal lines VL2 may not be connected to any transversal signal line 120, but may be used for implementing touch control or other functions.



FIG. 2 is a partial schematic top view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. An electronic device 100A of FIG. 2 has a layout design substantially similar to that of the electronic device 100′ of FIG. 1, so that the same component symbols are adopted in the two embodiments to denote the same components. In FIG. 2, the electronic device 100A includes the substrate 110, a plurality of the transversal signal lines 120, a plurality of the vertical signal lines 130, a plurality of the pixel structures 140, and a plurality of first shielding vertical lines 150A, and the transversal signal lines 120, the vertical signal lines 130, the pixel structures 140, the first shielding vertical lines 150A and a common electrode line 160 are all disposed on the substrate 110. A layout and a connection relationship of the transversal signal lines 120, the vertical signal lines 130, and the pixel structures 140 are, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, and are not repeated here. For the convenience of description, the signal lines around the single pixel structure 140 located in the middle of FIG. 2 are mainly described below.


In the embodiment, an extending direction of the transversal signal lines 120 is, for example, the first direction D1 shown in FIG. 1, and an extending direction of the vertical signal lines 130 is, for example, the second direction D2 shown in FIG. 1, where the transversal and vertical directions are intersected with each other, but an intersection angle of the two directions is not limited to 90 degrees. The vertical signal lines 130 may include a first vertical signal line 132 and a second vertical signal line 134 on one side of the pixel structure 140, where the first vertical signal line 132 is a vertical signal line directly connected to one of the pixel structures 140, and the second vertical signal line 134 may be connected to one of the transversal signal lines 120 in the entire electronic device 100A. One of the pixel structures 140 is located between adjacent two of the transversal signal lines 120 and is located on one side of the second vertical signal line 134. The single pixel structure 140 may include the active device 142 and the pixel electrode 144, where three terminals of the active device 142 are respectively connected to the corresponding transversal signal line 120, the first vertical signal line 132, and the pixel electrode 144.


The transversal signal lines 120 are, for example, scan signal lines, which are configured to provide scan signals to the pixel structures 140, and the first vertical signal line 132 is configured to provide a data signal to the pixel structure 140. In other words, although the first vertical signal line 132 and the second vertical signal line 134 are adjacent to each other, they are used to transmit different types of signals. Under such circuit configuration, coupling of the first vertical signal line 132 and the second vertical signal line 134 may probably decrease signal transmission quality of the two vertical signal lines 132 and 134. However, in the embodiment, an orthogonal projection of the first shielding vertical line 150A on the substrate 110 (i.e., a layout area in FIG. 2) is located between an orthogonal projection of the first vertical signal line 132 on the substrate 110 and an orthogonal projection of the second vertical signal line 134 on the substrate 110. Moreover, the electronic device 100A may further include the common electrode line 160, and the first shielding vertical line 150A may be connected to the common electrode line 160 to be applied with a common potential. In this way, the arrangement of the first shielding vertical line 150A may reduce the interference between the first vertical signal line 132 and the second vertical signal line 134 to ensure the signal transmission quality of the first vertical signal line 132 and the second vertical signal line 134, so that functions (such as image display, touch sensing, etc.) executed by the electronic device 100A may meet expectations. In FIG. 2, the common electrode line 160 includes a first line 162 and a second line 164, where the first line 162 and the second line 164 are located between two adjacent horizontal signal lines 120 and located on opposite sides of the pixel structure 140. In addition, the first shielding vertical line 150A may be overlapped with both the first line 162 and the second line 164, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In the embodiment, the vertical signal lines 130 may further include a third vertical signal line 136 and a fourth vertical signal line 138 located on the other side of the pixel structure 140. The pixel structure 140 is, for example, located between the second vertical signal line 134 and the fourth vertical signal line 138. The third vertical signal line 136 is located between the fourth vertical signal line 138 and the first vertical signal line 132. Moreover, orthogonal projections of the first vertical signal line 132 and the third vertical signal line 136 on the substrate 110 are located between the orthogonal projection of the second vertical signal line 134 on the substrate 110 and an orthogonal projection of the fourth vertical signal line 138 on the substrate 110. In addition, the shielding vertical line may not be provided between the third vertical signal line 136 and the fourth vertical signal line 138, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. The third vertical signal line 136 is connected to other pixel structures in the same column, and the fourth vertical signal line 138 may be connected to a DC potential or one of the transversal signal lines 120 in the entire electronic device 100A, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In the embodiment, the pixel electrode 144 of the pixel structure 140 may be overlapped with the first vertical signal line 132, the second vertical signal line 134, the third vertical signal line 136, the fourth vertical signal line 138 and the first shielding vertical line 150A in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 110. To be specific, the pixel electrode 144 may traverse the first vertical signal line 132, the first shielding vertical line 150A, and the third vertical signal line 136, and may be overlapped with the second vertical signal line 134 by a part of width of the second vertical signal line 134 and overlapped with the fourth vertical signal line 138 by a part of width of the fourth vertical signal line 138. The first shielding vertical line 150A may be a transparent wire, so that the portion of the pixel electrode 144 overlapped with the first shielding vertical line 150A may still serve as an effective display area. In this way, although the electronic device 100A is additionally configured with the first shielding vertical line 150A, a display area of the electronic device 100A is not reduced due to configuration of the first shielding vertical line 150A.


Moreover, in the embodiment, the pixel electrode 144 may include a vertical trunk portion MV, a horizontal trunk portion MH, and a plurality of stripe portions ST, where the vertical trunk portion MV and the horizontal trunk portion MH are intersected in a cross shape to define four sub-regions, and the stripe portions ST are connected to the vertical trunk portion MV and the horizontal trunk portion MH and extend outward from the vertical trunk portion MV and the horizontal trunk portion MH in a substantially radial manner. However, in other embodiments, the pixel electrode 144 may have other patterns or may be regarded as a complete rectangular shape.



FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the electronic device of FIG. 2 along a section line A-A according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the common electrode line 160 is disposed on the substrate 110. In the embodiment, a film layer where the common electrode line 160 is located may be the same as a film layer where the transversal signal lines 120 are located. Materials of the common electrode line 160 and the transversal signal lines 120 include a material with good conductivity, such as metal or alloy. The film layer where the common electrode line 160 and the transversal signal lines 120 are located is, for example, closer to the substrate 110 than film layers where other circuits are located, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


After the common electrode line 160 and the transversal signal lines 120 are fabricated, another conductive layer may be directly formed to fabricate the first shielding vertical line 150A, so that the first shielding vertical line 150A is directly stacked on the common electrode line 160. In other words, the first shielding vertical line 150A directly contacts the common electrode line 160 without an intermediate layer. The first shielding vertical line 150A may be a transparent conductive pattern. A material of the first shielding vertical line 150A may be metal oxide, for example: indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminum tin oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, or other suitable oxides, or a stacked layer of at least two of the above materials. Alternatively, the material of the first shielding vertical line 150A may be an organic transparent conductive material. In some embodiments, since the material of the first shielding vertical line 150A and the material of the common electrode line 160 have different properties, it is less likely to damage the common electrode line 160 and the transversal signal lines 120 during a patterning process of the first shielding vertical line 150A. Therefore, the first shielding vertical line 150A may be directly stacked on the common electrode line 160 without the intermediate layer.


After the first shielding vertical line 150A is fabricated, an insulating layer I1 may be formed on the substrate 110, and then the vertical signal lines 130 are fabricated. The vertical signal lines 130 may be intersected with the transversal signal lines 120 and the common electrode line 160. Therefore, the arrangement of the insulating layer I1 may separate the vertical signal lines 130 from the common electrode line 160 and also separate the vertical signal lines 130 from the transversal signal lines 120. In some embodiments, a material of the insulating layer I1 may include an inorganic insulating material or an organic insulating material, where the inorganic insulating material includes silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or silicon oxynitride, etc., and the organic insulating material includes polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyvinyl phenol (PVP) or polyimide (PI), etc. In addition, a material of the vertical signal lines 130 includes a material with good conductivity, such as metal or alloy.


After the vertical signal lines 130 are fabricated, one or more insulating layers or functional layers may be selectively formed on the substrate 110, and in the embodiment, an insulating layer I2, a filter layer CF, and an insulating layer I3 are used as an example for description, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Materials of the insulating layers I2 and I3 may include inorganic insulating materials or organic insulating materials, where the inorganic insulating materials include silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or silicon oxynitride, etc., and the organic insulating materials include polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyvinyl phenol (PVP) or polyimide (PI), etc. A material of the filter layer CF may include a color filter material, such as a red filter material, a green filter material, and a blue filter material. In addition, the insulating layer I3 may have a relatively thick thickness to serve as a planarization layer, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


The pixel electrode 144 may be formed on the insulating layer I3. A material of the pixel electrode 144 may include a transparent conductive material. The transparent conductive material may include metal oxides, such as indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminum tin oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, or other suitable oxides, or a stacked layer of at least two of the above materials. Alternatively, the transparent conductive material may be an organic transparent material. In some embodiments, a material of the pixel electrode 144 may be the same as the material of the first shielding vertical line 150A.



FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the electronic device of FIG. 2 along the section line A-A according to another embodiment of the disclosure. In FIG. 4, the first shielding vertical line 150A, the common electrode line 160, the insulating layer I1, the vertical signal lines 130, the insulating layer I2, the filter layer CF, the insulating layer I3, and the pixel electrode 144 are sequentially stacked on the substrate 110. To be specific, a difference between the cross section of FIG. 4 and the cross section of FIG. 3 lies in a stacking order of the first shielding vertical line 150A and the common electrode line 160. Therefore, the related description of FIG. 3 may be referred for the materials and stacking relationship of each film layer in the cross section of FIG. 4.



FIG. 5 is a partial schematic view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. An electronic device 100B of FIG. 5 is substantially similar to the electronic device 100A of FIG. 2, so that the aforementioned content may be referred for the same components described in the two embodiments. The electronic device 100B may include the substrate 110, a plurality of the transversal signal lines 120, a plurality of the vertical signal lines 130, the common electrode line 160, a first shielding vertical line 150B, and a second shielding vertical line 152B. The vertical signal lines 130 may include the first vertical signal line 132, the second vertical signal line 134, the third vertical signal line 136, and the fourth vertical signal line 138. The embodiment of FIG. 2 may be referred for the relative relationship of the substrate 110, the transversal signal lines 120, the first vertical signal line 132, the second vertical signal line 134, the third vertical signal line 136, the fourth vertical signal line 138, the pixel structures 140, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the common electrode line 160, and detail thereof is not repeated. To be specific, a difference between the present embodiment and the embodiment of FIG. 2 is that the electronic device 100B further includes the second shielding vertical line 152B, and a length design of the first shielding vertical line 150B is different.


In the embodiment, the first shielding vertical line 150B is located between the first vertical signal line 132 and the second vertical signal line 134, and the second shielding vertical line 152B is located between the third vertical signal line 136 and the fourth vertical signal line 138. In other words, the first vertical signal line 132 is located between the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B, and the third vertical signal line 136 is located between the first vertical signal line 132 and the second shielding vertical line 152B. The pixel structure 140 includes the active device 142 and the pixel electrode 144, and the second shielding vertical line 152B and the first shielding vertical line 150B are located on two opposite sides of the pixel electrode 144. In addition, the pixel electrode 144 may traverse the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B and extend to the second vertical signal line 134 and the fourth vertical signal line 138. In some embodiments, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B are, for example, distributed symmetrically by the pixel structure 140. Namely, a distance between the first shielding vertical line 150B and a central axis of the pixel electrode 144 may be substantially the same as a distance between the second shielding vertical line 152B and the central axis of the pixel electrode 144, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In the embodiment, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B may both traverse the first line 162 of the common electrode line 160, but are not intersected with the second line 164 of the common electrode line 160. In some embodiments, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B may be separated from the second line 164 by a distance. However, in other embodiments, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B may both traverse the first line 162 and are also overlapped with the second line 164. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B may be both overlapped with the second line 164, but both separated from the first line 162 by a distance. In overall, as long as the first shielding vertical line 150B and the second shielding vertical line 152B may contact one or both of the first line 162 and the second line 164, they may receive a common potential to provide a shielding effect. In addition, the second shielding vertical line 152B may be a transparent conductive pattern, so that the pixel structure 140 may also provide effective display in an area of the second shielding vertical line 152B without reducing an effective display area of the pixel structure 140 due to the arrangement of the second shielding vertical line 152B.



FIG. 6 is a partial schematic view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

The shielding electrode 158M, the first shielding vertical line 150M and the second shielding vertical line 152M are connected as a whole, and are, for example, made of a transparent conductive material. Therefore, although the shielding electrode 158M is overlapped with most of the area of the pixel electrode 144, the shielding electrode 158M does not affect the effective display area of the pixel structure 140.



FIG. 19 is a partial schematic view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. An electronic device 100N of FIG. 19 includes the substrate 110, a plurality of the transversal signal lines 120, the first vertical signal line 132, the second vertical signal line 134, the third vertical signal line 136, the fourth vertical signal line 138, a plurality of the pixel structures 140 respectively including the active device 142 and the pixel electrode 144, a first shielding vertical line 150N, a second shielding vertical line 152N, and the common electrode line 160 including the first line 162 and the second line 164.

The first shielding vertical line 150N and the second shielding vertical line 152N intersected with the transversal signal lines 120 and the common electrode line 160 must avoid electrical short circuit with the transversal signal lines 120 and the common electrode line 160.

In this way, the film layer of the first shielding vertical line 150N is different from the film layer of the common electrode line 160 but the first shielding vertical line 150N may be electrically connected to the common electrode line 160. When the common electrode line 160 and the transversal signal lines 120 are of the same film layer, the first shielding vertical line 150N is not connected to the transversal signal lines 120, and the transversal signal lines 120 and the common electrode line 160 may maintain independent electrical properties.
