Abstract

A display panel and a display device. The display panel includes a transparent display region. A plurality of sub-pixels are disposed in the transparent display region and the plurality of sub-pixels are arranged in a line along at least one direction. In each line of the plurality of sub-pixels arranged along at least one direction, a bottom electrode of one sub-pixel of each two adjacent sub-pixels among at least a part of a plurality of two adjacent sub-pixels has a first shape type, and a bottom electrode of the other sub-pixel of each two adjacent sub-pixels has a second shape type; the first shape type includes a circle or an ellipse; and the second shape type is the same as a shape of a light-emitting region of the other sub-pixel of each two adjacent sub-pixels.

Claims (33)

wherein the first shape type is different from the second shape type.

2. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the first shape type comprises a circle or an ellipse, and the plurality of sub-pixels are arranged in lines.

3. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein the sub-pixels in each line of the plurality of sub-pixels are divided to form a plurality of first repeating units, each first repeating unit among the plurality of first repeating units comprises three sub-pixels of the plurality of sub-pixels,

wherein, in the first repeating unit of at least a part of the plurality of first repeating units, bottom electrodes of two adjacent sub-pixels have the first shape type, and a bottom electrode of a third sub-pixel has the second shape type.

4. The display panel according to claim 3 , wherein in the first repeating unit, the sub-pixel having the bottom electrode of the second shape type is a green sub-pixel.

5. The display panel according to claim 2 , wherein the sub-pixels in each line of the plurality of sub-pixels are divided to form a plurality of first repeating units, each first repeating unit among the plurality of first repeating units comprising three sub-pixels of the plurality of sub-pixels,

wherein, in the first repeating unit of at least a part of the plurality of first repeating units, bottom electrodes of two adjacent sub-pixels have the second shape type, and a bottom electrode of a third sub-pixel has the first shape type.

6. The display panel according to claim 5 , wherein in the first repeating unit, the two adjacent sub-pixels having the bottom electrodes of the second shape type are a green sub-pixel and a blue sub-pixel.

7. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein in the line of the plurality of sub-pixels, sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the first shape type and sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the second shape type are arranged alternately.

8. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sub-pixels are arranged in a line along a first direction, the plurality of sub-pixels form a plurality of pixels, and each pixel among the plurality of pixels comprises three sub-pixels emitting different colors; wherein two sub-pixels in each pixel are arranged along the first direction, and virtual centers of the three sub-pixels in each pixel are connected to form a virtual triangle.

9. The display panel according to claim 8 , wherein two virtual triangles which correspond to two pixels adjacently arranged along the first direction have vertex angles pointing to opposite directions along a second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

10. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sub-pixels are arranged in a matrix; and

along a row direction of the matrix, the sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the first shape type and the sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the second shape type are arranged alternately, and

along a column direction of the matrix, the sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the first shape type and the sub-pixels which have bottom electrodes of the second shape type are arranged alternately.

11. The display panel according to claim 10 , wherein shapes of light-emitting regions of the plurality of sub-pixels comprise at least one of a triangle, a square, a pentagon, a circle, an ellipse, and a rounded rectangle.

12. The display panel according to claim 10 , wherein the second shape type comprises at least one of a triangle, a square, a pentagon, a circle, an ellipse, and a rounded rectangle.

13. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein along a direction of thickness of the display panel, a projection of a light-emitting region of the sub-pixel among the plurality of sub-pixels on a bottom electrode of the sub-pixel is within the bottom electrode of the sub-pixel; and

a ratio of an area of a light-emitting region of a sub-pixel which has a bottom electrode of the first shape type to an area of the bottom electrode of the first shape type is less than a ratio of an area of a light-emitting region of a sub-pixel which has a bottom electrode of the second shape type to an area of the bottom electrode of the second shape type.

14. The display panel according to claim 1 , further comprising a main display region disposed around at least a part of the transparent display region, wherein the plurality of sub-pixels comprising a plurality of first sub-pixels disposed in the main display region, and bottom electrodes of the plurality of first sub-pixels in the main display region have the second shape type.

15. The display panel according to claim 14 , wherein a transmittance of the main display region is lower than a transmittance of the transparent display region.

16. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sub-pixels comprise light-emitting regions of a same shape.

17. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sub-pixels comprise light-emitting regions of different shapes.

18. The display panel according to claim 1 , wherein a light-emitting region of each sub-pixel among the plurality of sub-pixels is located in a middle region of a bottom electrode of the each sub-pixel.

19. A display device, comprising the display panel according to claim 1 and comprising a photosensitive component disposed below the transparent display region of the display panel.
