Specifically, the response time test is performed on the display panel, and the display panel is set to display a black picture for a certain period of time (for example, one minute) and then switched to a white picture. Taking the driving transistor as a P-type transistor as an example, in the black-screen display time of one minute, the gate voltage of the driving transistor for driving the pixel in the pixel circuit to emit light is positive, and the driving transistor is in an off state. As shown in fig. 2, wherein Gate1 is a transistor characteristic curve with no Gate bias voltage, and Gate2 and Gate3 are transistor characteristic curves with Gate voltage lower than normal off-state voltage, respectively; as can be seen from fig. 2, the gate voltage of the black frame 1 is higher than that of the black frame 2, the leakage current is higher, and the brightness is also higher; the hysteresis of switching the display panel from black frame 1 to white frame is more severe than the switching of the display panel from black frame 2 to white frame, which means that the first frame of frame cannot return to the normal white frame in time.

In practical implementation, in the pixel circuit provided in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3a and 3b, the bypass module 02 may include: a resistance R; the resistor R is connected between the input terminal and the output terminal of the light emitting device OLED.
