All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art on a basis of the embodiments of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and the claims, the term “comprise” and other forms thereof such as the third-person singular form “comprises” and the present participle form “comprising” are construed as an open and inclusive meaning, i.e., “including, but not limited to”. In the description of the specification, the terms such as “one embodiment”, “some embodiments”, “exemplary embodiments”, “example”, “specific example” or “some examples” are intended to indicate that specific features, structures, materials or characteristics related to the embodiment(s) or example(s) are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. Schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment(s) or example(s). In addition, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be included in any one or more embodiments or examples in any suitable manner.
Hereinafter, the terms “first” and “second” are only used for descriptive purposes, and are not to be construed as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with the term such as “first” or “second” may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term “a plurality of/the plurality of” means two or more unless otherwise specified.
In the description of some embodiments, the term “electrically connected” and extensions thereof may be used. For example, the term “connected” may be used in the description of some embodiments to indicate that two or more components are in direct physical or electrical contact with each other.
The phrase “at least one of A, B and C” has a same meaning as the phrase “at least one of A, B or C”, and they both include the following combinations of A, B and C: only A, only B, only C, a combination of A and B, a combination of A and C, a combination of B and C, and a combination of A, B and C.

Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to sectional views and/or plan views as idealized exemplary drawings. In the accompanying drawings, thickness of layers and areas of regions are enlarged for clarity. Therefore, variations in shapes with respect to the accompanying drawings due to, for example, manufacturing technologies and/or tolerances may be envisaged. Therefore, the exemplary embodiments should not be construed as being limited to the shapes of the regions shown herein, but as including shape deviations due to, for example, manufacturing. For example, an etched region that is shown in a rectangle generally has a feature of being curved. Therefore, the regions shown in the accompanying drawings are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to show actual shapes of regions in a device, and are not intended to limit the scope of the exemplary embodiments.
Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display panel. As shown in
It will be noted that the hole H is provided in the display region AA of the display panel 300 through a manner of mechanical punching or laser drilling, and the hole H is used to mount functional devices, such as a camera. A technology of forming the hole in the display region AA of the display panel 300 to place the camera is referred to as an active area hole (AA Hole) technology.
As shown in
The hole H includes a mounting hole H1 provided in the touch substrate 100 and a functional device mounting hole H2 provided in the display substrate 200. The functional device mounting hole H2 and the mounting hole H1 of the touch substrate 100 correspond and communicate with each other.
In the related art, as shown in
The inventors of the present disclosure found that the hole provided inside a display panel will destroy integrity of touch electrodes at a position of the touch substrate 100′ where the hole is provided, so that a contour circumference of a touch electrode located around a mounting hole H′ is less than a contour circumference of a touch electrode located in a normal region. As a result, a facing area of touch electrodes located around the mounting hole H′ is less than a facing area of touch electrodes located in the normal region. Therefore, there is a large difference between mutual capacitance values generated after the touch electrodes located around the mounting hole H′ and the touch electrodes located in the normal region are touched. When a finger scribes a line on the touch substrate 100′ and passes through a periphery of the mounting hole H′, since the mutual capacitance values of the touch electrodes around the mounting hole H′ are small, the scribed line may vibrate, for example, may curve and even break, on the periphery of the mounting hole H′. As a result, linearity of the scribed line on the touch substrate 100′ is poor.
In addition, in order to provide the hole inside the display panel, a connecting portion between the touch electrodes may also be removed. In order to realize electrical connection between the touch electrodes, in the related art, two adjacent first touch electrodes 11′ that are disconnected are electrically connected by a first bridge, and two adjacent second touch electrodes 12′ that are disconnected are electrically connected by a second bridge. The first bridge and the second bridge are disposed around the mounting hole H′. However, this connecting manner will result in poor antistatic capability of the two touch electrodes that are electrically connected by the bridge.
In order to solve the above problems, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a touch substrate. As shown in
For example, a diameter of the mounting hole H1 is in a range of 3 mm to 5 mm, inclusive. For example, the diameter is 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 mm or 5 mm.
As shown in
It will be noted that, as shown in
In addition, in a case where the touch substrate 100 is attached to the display substrate 200 in an out-cell manner, the touch substrate 100 includes the substrate 101, and the plurality of first touch units 10 and the plurality of second touch units 20 are disposed on the substrate 101.
As shown in
It will be noted that an area of the mounting hole H1 is 5, and satisfies the following formula:
2S1≤S≤4S1
where “S1” refers to an average value of a sum of an area of the first touch electrode 11 and an area of the second touch electrode 21 that are located in the main touch region A2.
As shown in
It will be noted that, as shown in
In addition, the “hole edge region A1” refers to a region defined by four capacitor units C that surround the mounting hole H1 and are adjacent to the mounting hole Hl.
As shown in
It will be understood that, as shown in
For example, as shown in
For example, as shown in
Moreover, in conjunction with
It will be noted that, since the position of the adjustment connecting unit 32 is adjusted relative to the position of the corresponding hole edge reference point P, shapes of contours of touch electrodes electrically connected to the adjustment connecting unit 32 are changed, and are different from shapes of contours of the touch electrodes located in the main touch region A2.
In the touch substrate 100 of the above embodiments of the present disclosure, the center of the adjustment connecting unit 32 is set to be farther from the center D of the mounting hole H1 than the hole edge reference point P, and the shapes of the contours of the touch electrodes electrically connected to the adjustment connecting unit 32 are changed. As a result, the adjustment connecting unit 32 is electrically connected to two first touch electrodes 11 adjacent thereto and two second touch electrodes adjacent thereto, and the problem of poor antistatic capability of the touch electrodes due to the use of the bridge to electrically connect the touch electrodes may be avoided.
In addition, of the two first touch electrodes 11 electrically connected to the adjustment connecting unit 32, a contour circumference of a first touch electrode 11 closer to the mounting hole H1 (the first touch electrode 11 located around the mounting hole H1) is increased. Of the two second touch electrodes 21 electrically connected to the adjustment connecting unit 32, a contour circumference of a second touch electrode 21 closer to the mounting hole H1 (the second touch electrode 21 located around the mounting hole H1) is increased. As a result, a facing area of the first sub-electrode 110 and the second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C where the adjustment connecting unit 32 is located is increased.
By increasing the facing area of the first sub-electrode 110 and the second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C where the adjustment connecting unit 32 is located, it is possible to reduce a difference between the above-mentioned facing area and a facing area of a first sub-electrode 110 and a second sub-electrode 210 in a capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2, and reduce a difference between a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the adjustment connecting unit 32 is located and a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2. As a result, the linearity of the scribed line around the mounting hole H1 may be improved, and touch precision of the periphery of the mounting hole H1 of the touch substrate 100 may be improved.
In some embodiments, as shown in
How to select a hole edge connecting unit 31 as an adjustment connecting unit 32 will be explained below with reference to drawings.
In some embodiments, as shown in
In the first direction X, the first hole edge connecting unit 33 and the third hole edge connecting unit 35 are adjacent to each other and are electrically connected to a same first touch electrode 11, and the second hole edge connecting unit 34 and the fourth hole edge connecting units 36 are adjacent to each other and are electrically connected to another same first touch electrode 11. In the second direction Y, the first hole edge connecting unit 33 and the second hole edge connecting unit 34 are adjacent to each other and are electrically connected to a same second touch electrode 21, and the third hole edge connecting unit 35 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 are adjacent to each other and are electrically connected to another same second touch electrode 21.
In some embodiments, as shown in
In the direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 101, of the first hole edge connecting unit 33, the second hole edge connecting unit 34, the third hole edge connecting unit 35 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36, at least one hole edge connecting unit 31 is an adjustment connecting unit 32. A distance between a center of the adjustment connecting unit 32 and the center O of the mounting hole H1 is greater than a distance between a hole edge reference point P corresponding to the adjustment connecting unit 32 and the center O of the mounting hole H1. Of the first hole edge connecting unit 33, the second hole edge connecting unit 34, the third hole edge connecting unit 35 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36, centers of the other hole edge connecting units 31 other than the adjustment connecting unit 32 each overlap with a correspond hole edge reference point P.
For example, in the direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 101, of the first hole edge connecting unit 33, the second hole edge connecting unit 34, the third hole edge connecting unit 35 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36, one hole edge connecting unit 31 is the adjustment connecting unit 32.
For example, as shown in
It will be understood that, in the related art, a position of the mounting hole is closer to a capacitor unit where a second hole edge reference point is located than capacitor units where a first hole edge reference point, a third hole edge reference point and a fourth hole edge reference point are located. There is more loss of patterns of touch sub-electrodes, proximate to the mounting hole, in the capacitor unit, resulting in a small mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit.
A facing area of a first sub-electrode 110 and a second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 is located is increased through the above arrangement, thereby increasing a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 is located, and decreasing a difference between the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 is located and the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2. As a result, the linearity of the scribed line around the mounting hole H1 on the touch substrate 100 may be improved, and the touch precision of the periphery of the mounting hole H1 of the touch substrate 100 may be improved.
For another example, the position of the mounting hole H1 is closer to a capacitor unit C where the first hole edge reference point P1 is located than capacitor units C where the second hole edge reference point P2, the third hole edge reference point P3 and the fourth hole edge reference point P4 are located. In this case, the first hole edge connecting unit 33 may be selected as the adjustment connecting unit 32 to increase a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the first hole edge connecting unit 33 is located.
For yet another example, the position of the mounting hole H1 is closer to the capacitor unit C where the third hole edge reference point P3 is located than capacitor units C where first hole edge reference point P1, the second hole edge reference point P2 and the fourth hole edge reference point P4 are located. In this case, the third hole edge connecting unit 35 may be selected as the adjustment connecting unit 32 to increase a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the third hole edge connecting unit 35 is located.
For yet another example, the position of the mounting hole H1 is closer to the capacitor unit C where the fourth hole edge reference point P4 is located than capacitor units C where first hole edge reference point P1, the second hole edge reference point P2 and the third hole edge reference point P3 are located. In this case, the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 may be selected as the adjustment connecting unit 32 to increase a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 is located.
For example, in the direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 101, of the first hole edge connecting unit 33, the second hole edge connecting unit 34, the third hole edge connecting unit 35 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36, two hole edge connecting units are adjustment connecting units 32.
For example, as shown in
It will be understood that, in the related art, the position of the mounting hole is closer to capacitor units where the second hole edge reference point and the fourth hole edge reference point are located than capacitor units where the first hole edge reference point and the third hole edge reference point are located. Therefore, there is more loss of patterns of touch sub-electrodes, proximate to the mounting hole, in the capacitor units where the second hole edge reference point and the fourth hole edge reference point are located, resulting in small mutual capacitance values of the two capacitor units.
A facing area of a first sub-electrode 110 and a corresponding second sub-electrode 210 in each of the capacitor units C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 are located is increased through the above arrangement, thereby increasing mutual capacitance values of the capacitor units C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 and the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 are located, reducing a difference between the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the second hole edge connecting unit 34 is located and the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2, and reducing a difference between the mutual capacitance value of the capacitance unit C where the fourth hole edge connecting unit 36 is located and the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2. As a result, the linearity of the scribed line around the mounting hole H1 on the touch substrate 100 may be improved, and the touch precision of the periphery of the mounting hole H1 of the touch substrate 100 may be improved.
For another example, the position of the mounting hole H1 is closer to capacitor units C where the third hole edge reference point P3 and the fourth hole edge reference point P4 are located than capacitor units C where the first hole edge reference point P1 and the second hole edge reference point P2 are located.

In addition, in the related art, as shown in
In order to solve the above problem, in some embodiments, as shown in
In a first touch unit 10 corresponding to the corner connecting unit 37, a straight line where a line connecting centers of at least two first touch electrodes 11 in the main touch region A2 is located is a third reference line L3. In a second touch unit 20 corresponding to the corner connecting unit 37, a straight line where a line connecting centers of at least two second touch electrodes 21 in the main touch region A2 is located is a fourth reference line L4. An intersection point of the third reference line L3 and the fourth reference line L4 is a corner reference point P5. In the direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 101, the corner reference point P5 is farther from the center D of the mounting hole H1 than a center D5 of the corner connecting unit 37.
It will be understood that the corner region A3 of the main touch region A2 corresponds to the corner region of the touch substrate 100. In the direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 101, a distance between the center of the corner connecting unit 37 and the center D of the mounting hole H1 is less than a distance between the corner reference point P5 corresponding to the corner connecting unit 37 and the center D of the mounting hole H1.
Moreover, the center of the “corner connecting unit 37” does not overlap with the corresponding corner reference point P5, in conjunction with
It will be noted that since the position of the corner connecting unit 37 is adjusted relative to the position of the corresponding corner reference point P5, shapes of contours of touch electrodes electrically connected to the corner connecting unit 37 are changed, which are different from the shape of the contour of the touch electrode located in the main touch region A2 other than the corner region A3.
In the touch substrate 100 of the above embodiments of the present disclosure, the corner reference point P5 is disposed farther from the center D of the mounting hole H1 than the center of the corner connecting unit 37. In this way, of the two first touch electrodes 11 electrically connected to the corner connecting unit 37, a contour circumference of a first touch electrode 11 farther away from the mounting hole H1 is increased; and of the two second touch electrodes 21 electrically connected to the corner connecting unit 37, a contour circumference of a second touch electrode 21 farther away from the mounting hole H1 is increased. Therefore, a facing area of a first sub-electrode 110 and a second sub-electrode 210 in a capacitor unit C where the corner connecting unit 37 is located is increased.
By increasing the facing area of the first sub-electrode 110 and the second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C where the corner connecting unit 37 is located, it is possible to reduce a difference between the facing area of the first sub-electrode 110 and the second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C where the corner connecting unit 37 is located and the facing area of the first sub-electrode 110 and the second sub-electrode 210 in the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2, and reduce a difference between a mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C where the corner connecting unit 37 is located and the mutual capacitance value of the capacitor unit C in the main touch region A2. As a result, the linearity of the scribed line on the corner region A3 of the touch substrate 100 may be improved, and the touch precision on the corner region A3 of the touch substrate 100 may be improved.
In some embodiments, as shown in
The touch substrate 100 further includes a connecting ring 50 disposed around the mounting hole H1. The connecting ring 50 includes at least two connecting segments (e.g., the first connecting segment 301 and the second connecting segment 302 in
The connecting segment is connected to the hole edge electrode in parallel, so that impedance of the hole edge electrode may be reduced, and thus a voltage drop of a voltage signal transmitted by the hole edge electrode may be reduced.
In some embodiments, as shown in
The first connecting segment 301 is connected to the first hole edge electrode KB1 in parallel, and the second connecting segment 302 is connected to the second hole edge electrode KB2 in parallel, so that impedance of the first hole edge electrode KB1 and the second hole edge electrode KB2 may be reduced, and thus a voltage drop of a voltage signal transmitted by the first hole edge electrode KB1 and the second hole edge electrode KB2 may be reduced.
It will be understood that, as shown in
For example, as shown in
It will be noted that, as shown in
For example, the second connecting segment 302 is in direct electrical contact with the second hole edge electrode KB2. For example, the connecting manner of the first connecting segment 301 and the first hole edge electrode KB1 is applicable to the two.
For example, the connecting ring 50 may be made of a metal conductive material, which is directly dutted to the first hole edge electrode KB1 and the second hole edge electrode KB2.
In some embodiments, as shown in
In a case where the touch substrate 100 and the display substrate are integrated, the region around the mounting hole H1 is a region where image display is required, and the light blocking ring 40 may prevent light passing through the mounting hole H1 from entering the region around the mounting hole H1, so that the light may be prevent form entering the display region and affecting the display quality.
In addition, the opening 41 of the light blocking ring 40 may be used to release static electricity generated in the light blocking ring 40 to the outside of the touch substrate 100, so as to prevent the static electricity from entering the main touch region A2 and affecting the touch effect.
In some embodiments, as shown in
It will be understood that a film layer for forming specific patterns is formed through a single film forming process, and then the first touch electrode 11, the second touch electrode 21 and the first light blocking layer 42 of the light blocking ring 40 are formed by performing a single patterning process on the film layer using a same mask. Moreover, another film layer for forming specific patterns is formed through a single film forming process, and then the connecting ring 50 and the second light blocking layer 43 of the light blocking ring 40 is formed by performing a single patterning process on the film layer using a same mask.
In some embodiments, a dimension of the touch substrate 100 in the second direction Y is greater than a dimension of the touch substrate in the first direction X, so that a dimension of the second touch unit 20 in the second direction Y is greater than a dimension of the first touch unit 10 in the first direction X. In this case, as shown in
It will be understood that the dummy electrode 60 does not transmit a voltage signal, so that an area of an electrode for transmitting the voltage signal in the second touch electrode 21 is reduced. A difference between the area of the electrode for transmitting the signal in the first touch electrode 11 and the area of the electrode for transmitting the signal in the second touch electrode 21 is reduced, so that the problem that the mutual capacitance values of different touch units are affected by the difference between the areas of the touch electrodes may be alleviated, and accuracy of sensing the touch position may be improved.
For example, the first touch electrode 11 may be a touch sensing electrode, and the second touch electrode 21 may be a touch driving electrode.
In some embodiments, the dimension of the touch substrate 100 in the first direction X is greater than the dimension of the touch substrate 100 in the second direction Y, so that the dimension of the first touch unit 10 in the first direction X is greater than the dimension of the second touch unit 20 in the second direction Y.
The first touch electrode 11 is provided therein with another dummy electrode (i.e., another opening) 60 disconnected from the first touch electrode 11, and the dummy electrode 60 is insulated from the first touch electrode 11. Therefore, the dummy electrode 60 does not transmit a voltage signal. In this way, an area of an electrode for transmitting the voltage signal in the first touch electrode 11 is reduced. A difference between the area of the electrode for transmitting the signal in the first touch electrode 11 and the area of the electrode for transmitting the signal in the second touch electrode 21 is reduced, so that the problem that the mutual capacitance values of different touch units are affected by the difference between the areas of the touch electrodes may be alleviated, and the accuracy of sensing the touch position may be improved.
For example, the first touch electrode 11 may be a touch driving electrode, and the second touch electrode 21 may be a touch sensing electrode,
In some embodiments, as shown in
It will be understood that the shape of the contour the touch electrode located in the hole edge region A1 is different from the shape of the contour of the touch electrode located in the main touch region A2. In order to adapt to the shape of the contour of the touch electrode located in the hole edge region A1, a shape of the dummy electrode 60 in the touch electrode in the hole edge region A1 is adjusted accordingly.
For example, as shown in
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, the first touch electrode 11 and the second touch electrode 21 may be each a whole layer of electrode. For example, the material of the first touch electrode 11 and the second touch electrode 21 may include indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO).
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, a line width of a metal mesh of the touch electrode located in the hole edge region A1 is greater than a line width of a metal mesh of the touch electrode located in the main touch region A2, so that electrode areas of the first touch electrode 11 and the second touch electrode 21 in the hole edge region Al may be compensated. The areas of the first touch electrode 11 and the second touch electrode 21 in the hole edge region A1 are increased, so that the mutual capacitance value between the first touch electrode 11 and the second touch electrode 21 is increased, and the problem of poor linearity of the scribed line on the hole edge region A1 of the touch panel 100 may be further ameliorated.
For example, the line width of the metal mesh of the touch electrode located in the hole edge region A1 is in a range of 4 μm to 4.8 μm, inclusive, for example, the line width is 4 μm, 4.2 μm, 4.4 μm, 4.5 μm or 4.8 μm. The line width of the metal mesh of the touch electrode located in the main touch region A2 is in a range of 3.8 μm to 4.2 μm, inclusive, for example, the line width is 3.8 μm, 3.9 μm, 4 μm, 4.1 μm or 4.2 μm.
