On the basis of the above-described embodiments, in conjunction with fig. 1, 2 and 5, the first refresh frequency 10 is greater than the second refresh frequency 20; at the second refresh frequency 20, the initialization signal line Vref is configured to transmit the first initialization voltage in the active display period and transmit the second initialization voltage in the inactive display period; the second initialization voltage is larger than the first initialization voltage.
Specifically, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of display line numbers of an active display stage and an inactive display stage of a display panel with different refresh frequencies according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1 to 3, 5 and 6, in the active display phase of the display panel, the voltage of the TE signal is a low level voltage, which corresponds to the active display phase in fig. 6. During the inactive display period, the voltage of the TE signal is a high level voltage, corresponding to VFP and VBP in fig. 6. The invalid display phase of the TE signal includes VFP and VBP, and the invalid display phase may be calculated as a virtual line number according to a time corresponding to each pixel line in the valid display phase, where the line number corresponding to the invalid display phase of the TE signal includes a sum of a line number of the VFP and a line number of the VBP. Referring to fig. 6, the number of rows in the active display period is the same at different refresh rates, and in the inactive display period, the number of rows in the inactive display period corresponding to the second refresh rate 20 with the lower refresh rate is greater than the number of rows in the inactive display period corresponding to the first refresh rate 10. For example, the number of rows of the active display phase of the display device may be 2340 rows, the number of rows of the inactive display phase corresponding to the first refresh frequency 10 may be 60 rows, wherein the sum of the number of rows of the VBP and the number of rows of the VFP is 60 rows, and the sum of the number of rows of the inactive display phase corresponding to the first refresh frequency 10 and the number of rows of the active display phase is 2400 rows. The number of rows of the invalid display phase corresponding to the second refresh rate 20 may be 1260, where the sum of the number of rows of VBP and the number of rows of VFP is 1260, and the sum of the number of rows of the invalid display phase corresponding to the second refresh rate 20 and the number of rows of the valid display phase is 3600 rows.
For example, the first refresh frequency 10 may be 90HZThe second refresh rate 20 may be 60HZThus, each line time is: 1/60/3600-1/90/2400-4.63 us. Due to the greater number of rows in the inactive display phase at the lower second refresh rate 20, the storage capacitor C is provided during the inactive display phase at the lower second refresh rate 20stVoltage and light emitting element D1The leak time from the anode to the initialization signal line Vref is longer. At a second refresh rate 20, which is a lower refresh rate, the driving transistor T is driven due to a longer leakage time1The lower the gate voltage of (A), the lower the current formula in the saturation region, the lower the driving transistor T1The lower the gate voltage of (A), the drive transistor T1The larger the output current of (A), the larger the light emitting element D1Is higher, the drive transistor T is turned off if necessary1A larger black state voltage is required to make the light emitting element D1A black state is achieved.
Therefore, at the second refresh frequency 20 with a lower refresh frequency, the initialization signal line Vref transmits the second initialization voltage with a higher voltage in the invalid display period, and the storage capacitor C can be reduced at the second refresh frequency 20 with a lower frequencystIs passed through a first initialization transistor T2And reduce the light emitting element D1Through a second initialization transistor T3So that the driving transistor T is driven1The voltage of the grid is high, and the driving transistor T can be driven at a low refreshing frequency1Has a small output current, and a light emitting element D1Is low, and the driving transistor T is turned off if necessary1A smaller black state voltage is required, thereby reducing the driving transistor T1Voltage of the black state. Due to the lower driving transistor T1The black state voltage of the driving transistor T can be reduced1The positive bias or the negative bias of the grid further reduces the capture or release of the carrier between the semiconductor layer and the insulating layer, so that the capture probability of the carrier is reduced, the drift of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor is reduced, and the afterimage phenomenon of the display panel under the low refresh frequency is further improved.

Specifically, the light-emitting elements D correspondingly flow through the light-emitting elements D under the same display brightness and different refresh rates1When displaying a black screen, the light emitting element D1Through a second initialization transistor T3Leaks current to the initialization signal line Vref. During the inactive display phase, the second initialization transistor T is activated at the first refresh rate 10, which is higher than the refresh rate3The shunt of the branch in which the second initialization transistor T is located is greater at a second refresh frequency 20, which is lower in refresh frequency3The split of the branch in which the branch is located is small. The second Scan signal line Scan2 supplies a second initializing transistor T3The control terminal transmits a voltage signal, an initialization signal line Vref and a second initialization transistor T3Is connected to the second pole. At a second refresh frequency 20, which is lower in refresh frequency, the initialization signal line Vref goes to the second initialization transistor T3The sixth initialization voltage of the second electrode with lower transmission voltage can increase the light emitting element D1Via a second initialization transistor T3The leakage to the initialization signal line Vref ensures that the current flowing through Vref is larger, so that the current of the first power signal line ELVDD is increased, and the driving transistor T is further reduced1The turn-off voltage of the display panel is reduced, so that the afterimage phenomenon of the display panel when the refresh rate is low is improved.
Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiments, with reference to fig. 1, fig. 4 and fig. 5, the display panel 100 provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include a light emitting element D connected to the pixel circuit 11The pixel circuit 1 includes a first initialization transistor T2A second initialization transistor T3And a driving transistor T1And a storage capacitor CstStorage capacitor CstConnecting the drive transistor T1A first initialization transistor T2Is connected to the drive transistor T1A first initialization transistor T2Is connected to an initialization signal line Vref as a first initialization signal line Vref1A first initialization signal line Vref1Is configured to drive the transistor T in an active display phase1The grid of the first transistor transmits a first initialization voltage; display panel100 further includes a second initialization signal line Vref2(ii) a Second initialization transistor T3First pole of (2) is connected with a light emitting element D1And a second initialization transistor T3Second pole of the second diode is connected with a second initialization signal line Vref2(ii) a At the first refresh frequency 10, the second initialization signal line Vref2 is configured to transmit a fifth initialization voltage to the anode of the light emitting element D1 during the active display period; at the second refresh frequency 20, the second initialization signal line Vref2 is configured to transmit a sixth initialization voltage to the anode of the light emitting element D1 during the active display period; wherein the first refresh frequency 10 is greater than the second refresh frequency 20; the sixth initialization voltage is less than the fifth initialization voltage.
Specifically, since the light emitting element D emits light when a black screen is displayed1Through a second initialization transistor T3Leakage to the second initialization signal line Vref2. At a first refresh frequency 10, at which the refresh frequency is high, a second initialization transistor T3The shunt of the branch in which the second initialization transistor T is located is greater at a second refresh frequency 20, which is lower in refresh frequency3The split of the branch in which the branch is located is small. The second Scan signal line Scan2 supplies a second initializing transistor T3The control terminal of the first transistor transmits a voltage signal, and the second initialization signal line Vref2And a second initialization transistor T3By setting a second initialization signal line Vref2A sixth initialization voltage with a lower voltage is transmitted at a second refresh frequency 20 with a lower refresh frequency, the first initialization signal line Vref1The transmitted initialization voltage signal may remain unchanged. At a second refresh frequency 20, which is lower in refresh frequency, a second initialization signal line Vref2To the second initialization transistor T3The sixth initialization voltage of the second electrode with lower transmission voltage can increase the light emitting element D1Via a second initialization transistor T3To the second initialization signal line Vref2The current of the first power supply signal line ELVDD increases, driving the transistor T1The turn-off voltage is reduced, and the afterimage phenomenon of the display panel is further improved.
On the other handAt a second refresh frequency 20, which is lower in refresh frequency, the second initialization signal line Vref is passed2To the second initialization transistor T3When the branch transmits a sixth initialization voltage with lower voltage, the first initialization signal line Vref1The second initialization voltage signal transmitted in the invalid display stage can be kept unchanged to ensure that the storage capacitor CstIs passed through a first initialization transistor T2To the first initialization signal line Vref1The leakage is small, and the display effect of the display panel is further improved.
Optionally, on the basis of the foregoing embodiment, with continued reference to fig. 4, the display panel provided in the embodiment of the present invention further includes a data signal line Vdata; the data signal line Vdata is configured to transmit a black-state voltage at the first refresh frequency 10 different from a black-state voltage transmitted at the second refresh frequency 20.
Specifically, since the leakage time is short and the required black-state voltage is low at the first refresh frequency 10 with a high refresh frequency, the arrangement makes the black-state voltage transmitted by the data signal line Vdata low at the first refresh frequency 10 with a high refresh frequency, thereby avoiding unnecessary waste of the display effect. Because the leakage time is long and the required black-state voltage is high at the second refresh frequency 20 with the lower refresh frequency, the black-state voltage transmitted by the data signal line Vdata is high at the second refresh frequency 20 with the lower refresh frequency, and the display effect of the display panel is improved. The black state voltage transmitted by the data signal line Vdata can be adjusted according to the refreshing frequency of the display panel, and the display effect of the display panel is improved. Since the first refresh frequency 10 is greater than the second refresh frequency 20, the leakage current at the first refresh frequency 10 is less than the leakage current at the second refresh frequency 20, and the data signal line Vdata may be configured to transmit the black state voltage at the first refresh frequency 10 with a higher refresh frequency less than the black state voltage at the second refresh frequency 20 with a lower refresh frequency, further improving the image sticking phenomenon of the display panel.
