The present application generally relates to the technical field of display devices, particularly to a method, a device, a display device and a medium for improving OLED residual images.
Organic light emitting diodes (OLED) have been widely used in displays because of its characteristics of self-luminous, high brightness, wide viewing angle, rapid response and RGB full-color components can be produced, etc. However, there is a serious problem in OLED display products, that is, after long-term use, due to the inconsistent life attenuation of organic material R/G/B of light-emitting layer in OLED devices, the image displayed on the display has color deviation and image sticking.
Due to the IC distribution and circuit design of an OLED panel, during the working process of the panel, its temperature is much higher than that of normal temperature, and the distribution is uneven.

Please refer to
S1, obtaining a life attenuation rate relationship and a life attenuation degree relationship of an OLED display panel;
S2, dividing a display area of the display panel into a plurality of sub-areas to monitor temperature change and gray scale change of each sub-area respectively;
S3, obtaining a temperature value and a gray scale value of each sub-area at a current moment, calculating a current life attenuation rate according to the temperature value and the gray scale value, and calculating a current luminous time of each sub-area;
S4, calculating a life attenuation degree of each sub-area according to the current luminous time of each sub-area;
S5, performing pixel compensation to each sub-area respectively according to the current life attenuation degree of each sub-area.
At step S1, the life attenuation rate relationship includes a gray scale attenuation rate relationship and a temperature attenuation rate relationship; and the life attenuation degree relationship is a relationship between a brightness attenuation degree and a luminous time. The gray scale attenuation rate relationship is a proportional relationship between a life attenuation rate under a current gray scale value and a life attenuation rate under a basic gray scale value; the temperature attenuation rate relationship is a proportional relationship between a life attenuation rate under a current temperature value and a life attenuation rate under a basic temperature value. The life attenuation degree relationship is a relationship between a brightness attenuation degree and a luminous time. In the process of using the display panel, due to the influence of pixel aging and attenuation, the luminous brightness of pixels will decrease with the increase of luminous time.
In specific setting, the step of obtaining a life attenuation relationship of an OLED display panel comprises:
performing life attenuation test to OLED display devices in a same batch of a production line to obtain a life attenuation relationship of the OLED display panel.
It should be noted that as long as the structure and the organic light-emitting material of the OLED device are not changed, its service life is considered to be the same in specific implementation. As long as there is no change in structural materials and production lines among different batches, the life is also considered to be the same. The life of the same organic light-emitting material located at different positions of the display area is the same, and there is no difference.
It should also be noted that the aging and attenuation degree of pixels in OLED device is not only related to the life of the organic light-emitting material, but also related to the temperature and display gray scale of the display area.
At least three relationships are obtained by performing life attenuation test to OLED display devices in a same batch of a production line:
The first is the relationship between the brightness attenuation degree of the organic light-emitting material and the luminous time. As shown in
It should be noted that there are three kinds of RGB organic materials in OLED. The life attenuation of the RGB organic materials is inconsistent. The attenuation rate of the blue organic material is the fastest (LT(R)≥LT(G)>>LT(B)), the life attenuation of the green organic material is faster, and the life attenuation of the red organic material is slower.
In addition, it should be noted that the test data selects a basic gray scale value and a basic temperature value as the reference, performs test and obtains the life attenuation data under the basic gray scale value and the basic temperature value. It should be noted that the life attenuation of the organic light-emitting materials is different at different service temperatures and for displaying different gray scales. Therefore, when calculating the life of different sub-areas, it is necessary to unify the life calculation standards.
In specific implementation, it can be tested separately according to different organic materials. For example, each monochrome light-emitting device in the OLED display panel can be selected as the aging experimental object to perform life attenuation curve test respectively. Of course, the comprehensive life of an OLED can be considered and the light-emitting devices in the OLED can be taken as the test object. In the embodiment of the present application, only the life attenuation curve of green organic material is selected as an example. The life data of OLED green organic light emitting devices is as shown in Table 1 below.
It should be noted that the above method for improving OLED residual images according to the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a full-color OLED display panel containing monochrome light-emitting devices of various colors, and the color of monochrome light-emitting devices is not limited here.
The second is the gray scale attenuation rate relationship, as shown in
For example, the effective gray scale value range can be 0˜255, and the gray scale value of 255 is selected as the basic gray scale value. It should be noted that the gray scale value of 255 is the maximum gray scale value in the commonly used effective gray scale value range of 0˜255. It can be understood that, compared with other gray-scale values, the gray-scale attenuation rate of the sub-pixel is the largest when the sub-pixel is lit in the case of the gray-scale value of 255, and then when the gray-scale value of 255 is used as the basic gray-scale value, the equivalent lighting time value obtained from the actual lighting time of the sub-pixel is small, which is conducive to simplifying the storage difficulty of time data and reducing the calculation difficulty of time data.
The third is the temperature attenuation rate relationship, as shown in
It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, 300K is selected as the basic temperature value. During the aging experiment, other temperatures can also be selected as the basic temperature value, and the corresponding curve can be obtained as the temperature attenuation rate relationship. In the specific embodiment, it can be selected according to the properties of the organic light-emitting material used by the OLED.
At step S3, the step of calculating a current life attenuation rate according to the temperature value and the gray scale value comprises:
bringing the temperature value into the temperature attenuation rate relationship to obtain a first life attenuation rate proportion under a current temperature value;
bringing the gray scale value into the gray scale attenuation rate relationship to obtain a second life attenuation rate proportion under a current gray scale value;
calculating a current life attenuation rate proportion, the current life attenuation rate proportion=the first life attenuation rate proportion×the second life attenuation rate proportion.
At step S3, the current luminous time is an equivalent luminous time under the basic gray scale value and the basic temperature value, i.e., the current luminous time=an actual luminous time×the current life attenuation rate proportion.
At step S4, the step of calculating a life attenuation degree of each sub-area according to the current luminous time of each sub-area comprises:
accumulating the current luminous time to obtain a current accumulative luminous time;
bringing the current accumulative luminous time into the life attenuation degree relationship to calculate a current life attenuation degree.
In the specific implementation, the sampling period can also be set to regularly calculate the attenuation degree data of sub-pixels in different areas on the display panel, and use the latest calculated attenuation degree data to update the data in the memory. For example, when the sampling period is set to 0.5 seconds and the pixels on the display panel are displayed for 0.5 seconds, the aging and attenuation degree data of the pixels will be determined according to the method of determining the pixel attenuation degree as described above, and the data will be stored in the memory. After displaying for 1 second, the above process of determining the aging and attenuation degree of pixels will be carried out again, and new attenuation degree data of pixels will be obtained. At this time, the aging and attenuation degree data can be used to update the attenuation degree data in the memory.
For example, the temperature and gray-scale data are detected every 0.5 s. At a certain moment in a sub-area, it is detected that the temperature value is 316K (the second life attenuation rate proportion is 2), the gray-scale value is 207 (the first life attenuation rate proportion is 0.5), and the actual luminous time is 5 s (current luminous time=5*0.5*2=5 s). When detecting at a certain moment, it is detected that the temperature value is 316K (the second life attenuation rate proportion is 2), the gray scale value is 130 (the first life attenuation rate proportion is 0.1), and the actual luminous time is 5 s (current luminous time=5*0.1*2=1 s). Therefore, the current accumulative luminous time=(the last accumulative luminous time+5 s+1 s).
The current brightness attenuation degree can be obtained by bringing the current accumulative luminous time into the life attenuation degree relationship, i.e., the relationship between brightness attenuation degree and luminous time, obtained in step S1. For example, when the accumulative luminous time is 88 h, the attenuation degree reaches 1%.
At step S5, the step of performing pixel compensation to each sub-area respectively according to the current life attenuation degree of each sub-area comprises: determining, based on a gamma value and a current life attenuation value of the display panel, a gray scale compensation parameter so as to perform gray scale compensation to pixels of each sub-area respectively.
The TFT (thin film field effect transistor) irradiates the pixel with an external light source, and uses the pixel to control the transmittance T of luminous energy to determine the brightness and darkness of the pixel. As the proportional relationship between input signal and output brightness, the gamma curve plays an important role in the display effect of display device. As an index of output brightness, the transmittance T is mainly controlled by the applied voltage, wherein the applied voltage is namely the input signal. Therefore, once the OLED display device is produced, there is a fixed transmittance T, that is, a fixed gamma curve.
In the embodiment of the present application, it can be set as needed to perform pixel compensation at a fixed attenuation degree (such as 50% attenuation or other attenuation degrees). Of course, other compensation conditions can also be set, such as taking the current accumulative luminous time as the compensation condition, and pixel compensation can be performed at the set time point. In the specific implementation, different settings are made according to different needs.
It should also be noted that the pixel compensation method, in addition to the examples in the embodiments of the present application, can also be realized in other ways, such as performing pixel compensation by compensating the brightness, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the color deviation and image sticking of the OLED display panel.
Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present application further provides a device for improving OLED residual images for carrying out a method for improving OLED residual images as mentioned above, the device comprising:

a timing module 5 for obtaining the temperature value and gray scale value at a predetermined time interval and accumulating the current luminous time;
a compensating module 6 for compensating pixels based on the current life attenuation value
It can be understood by those ordinary skilled in the art that the above functional modules can be implemented as software, firmware, hardware and appropriate combinations thereof. In the hardware implementation, the division between the above functional modules does not necessarily correspond to the division of physical components. For example, a physical component may have multiple functions of the gray-scale obtaining module 2, the life attenuation test module 3, the calculating module 4, the timing module 5 and the compensating module 6, or a functional module may be executed jointly by several physical components. Some or all physical components may be implemented as software executed by a processor, such as a central processing unit, a digital signal processor, or a microprocessor, or as hardware, or as an integrated circuit, such as an application specific integrated circuit.
An embodiment of the present application further provides an OLED display device, comprising: a display panel, a plurality of temperature sensors integrated in the display panel, a processor, wherein the processor is use for:
dividing a display area of the display panel into a plurality of sub-areas to monitor temperature change and gray scale change of each sub-area respectively;

calculating a life attenuation degree of each sub-area according to the current luminous time of each sub-area;
performing pixel compensation to each sub-area respectively according to the current life attenuation degree of each sub-area.
In the specific implementation, every N1*N2 sub-pixels on the display panel can be grouped into a sub-area, and each sub-area is provided with a temperature sensor.
The temperature sensor comprises a plurality of transistor groups arranged in parallel, each of the transistor groups comprises a plurality of transistors arranged in series. In one of the transistor groups, a first pole of a transistor is electrically connected with a second pole of an adjacent transistor. A first end and a second end of the transistor group are electrically connected with a controller respectively. A gate of the transistor is electrically connected with a gate signal line.
The transistor is arranged for, in response to control of the gate signal line, generating a driving current on a conduction path between the first end and the second end of the transistor group.
The controller is arranged for inputting voltages at the first end and the second end of the transistor group at intervals; the controller is further arranged for obtaining an electric current at the first end or the second end of the transistor group.
The processor being arranged for obtaining a temperature value of each sub-area at a current moment comprises: calculating a temperature change of the sub-area according to an electric current change of the plurality of transistor groups.
In the specific implementation, the processor being arranged for performing pixel compensation to each sub-area respectively according to the current life attenuation degree of each sub-area comprises:
obtaining a current life attenuation degree of each sub-area;
determining, according to the current life attenuation value, a gray scale compensation parameter of each sub-pixel in the sub-area;
performing pixel compensation to each sub-pixel according to the gray scale compensation parameter.
The gray scale compensation parameter is a voltage signal to be outputted currently at the sub-pixel position.
In the embodiment of the application, the TFT current variation at different temperatures in the simulated saturation region as shown in
Further, the temperature obtaining module 1 also includes a voltage input controller connected with the drain and the source of the transistor so that the voltages of the source and the drain are input at intervals.
When the display panel starts working, the gray scale and line difference at different positions cause different temperatures. By applying a 3V voltage to the S terminal (source) and a −2V voltage to the D terminal (drain) of the TFT temperature sensors in 9 areas, and applying a −7V low level to scanning lines of the TFT temperature sensors, the gate is opened and the current flowing through the D terminal is detected. The S-terminal and D-terminal voltages can be input at intervals. Assume that the interval input is set every 1 minute (as required), the impact of this TFT on other OLED circuits can be reduced.
In specific preparation, in the process of preparing 7T1C pixel circuit, the TFT temperature sensor is prepared synchronously, and the preparation process is the same. A TFT temperature sensor is prepared every 5*5 (or 10*10) sub-pixels as required, and the length-width ratio of the TFT is set to 5/30 (set as required). A TFT temperature sensor is prepared by every 5*5 sub-pixels, which will not have a great impact on the pixel layout and SD wiring, and the method is convenient and simple.
