Abstract

A pixel arrangement structure includes two first sub-pixels and two second sub-pixels which are connected as a first virtual quadrilateral. The two first sub-pixels are located at two first vertices of the first virtual quadrilateral. The two second sub-pixels are located at two second vertices of the first virtual quadrilateral. The two first vertices and the two second vertices are alternately arranged and spaced apart from each other. A third sub-pixel is located within the first virtual quadrilateral, and a center of the third sub-pixel deviates from a center of the first virtual quadrilateral. In a row direction or a column direction, the first virtual quadrilateral includes a first side and a second side facing to each other, and a length of the first side is smaller than a length of the second side.

Claims (33)

1. A pixel arrangement structure, comprising two first sub-pixels and two second sub-pixels; and

wherein the two first sub-pixels and the two second sub-pixels are connected as a first virtual quadrilateral;

wherein the two first sub-pixels are respectively located at two first vertices of the first virtual quadrilateral;

wherein the two second sub-pixels are respectively located at two second vertices of the first virtual quadrilateral;

wherein the two first vertices and the two second vertices are alternately arranged and spaced apart from each other;

wherein a third sub-pixel located within the first virtual quadrilateral, a center of the third sub-pixel deviating from a center of the first virtual quadrilateral;

wherein in a row direction or a column direction, the first virtual quadrilateral comprises a first side and a second side facing to each other, and a length of the first side is smaller than a length of the second side; and

wherein in the first virtual quadrilateral, a distance between one of the two first sub-pixels located on the second side and the third sub-pixel is greater than a distance between the other one of the two first sub-pixels located on the first side and the third sub-pixel.

2. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein centers of the two first sub-pixels respectively coincide with the two first vertices; and

wherein centers of the two second sub-pixels respectively coincide with the two second vertices.

3. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein the first virtual quadrilateral is formed as a trapezoid, and the first side and the second side are parallel to each other.

4. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein in the first virtual quadrilateral, a distance between one of the two first sub-pixels and any adjacent second sub-pixel is not equal to a distance between the other one of the two first sub-pixels and any adjacent second sub-pixel.

5. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein one of two opposite inner angles of the first virtual quadrilateral is smaller than 90°, and the other one of the two opposite inner angles of the first virtual quadrilateral is greater than 90°.

6. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein in the first virtual quadrilateral, a distance between the center of the third sub-pixel and a center of any first sub-pixel is not equal to a distance between the center of the third sub-pixel and a center of any second sub-pixel.

7. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , comprising:

a plurality of first virtual quadrilaterals and the plurality of first virtual quadrilaterals are arranged to form an array in a manner of sharing sides.

8. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 7 , wherein in the row direction or the column direction, two first virtual quadrilaterals sharing the first side or the second side forms a group;

wherein two first virtual quadrilaterals sharing the second side or the first side in an adjacent row or an adjacent column forms another group;

wherein in two groups of first virtual quadrilaterals, four first virtual quadrilaterals share one of the first vertices or one of the second vertices, and lines connecting centers of the four third sub-pixels form a second virtual quadrilateral; and

wherein in the column direction or the row direction, the second virtual quadrilateral comprises a third side and a fourth side facing to each other and unequal in length.

9. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 8 , wherein the third side and the fourth side are parallel to each other.

10. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 8 , wherein the second virtual quadrilateral is formed as a trapezoid, and the third sub-pixel has a shape of rectangle or quasi-rectangle.

11. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 10 , wherein a length direction of the third sub-pixel forms an inclination angle with respect to the row direction or the column direction.

12. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 11 , wherein the inclination angle ranges from 45° to 135°.

13. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 11 , wherein in the row direction or the column direction, a minimum distance between a virtual side of any third sub-pixel and a virtual side of an adjacent third sub-pixel is a first distance;

wherein in the column direction or the row direction, a minimum distance between the virtual side of the any third sub-pixel and a virtual side of another adjacent third sub-pixel is a second distance; and

wherein the first distance is smaller than the second distance.

14. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 8 , wherein two third sub-pixels of the two first virtual quadrilaterals sharing the second side share a mask aperture.

15. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 , wherein an aperture area of any one of the two second sub-pixels is greater than an aperture area of any one of the two first sub-pixels and greater than an aperture area of the third sub-pixel.

16. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 15 , wherein a distance between the center of the third sub-pixel and a center of any first sub-pixel is smaller than a distance between the center of the third sub-pixel and a center of any second sub-pixel.

17. The pixel arrangement structure according to claim 15 , wherein the first sub-pixel is a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel is a blue sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel is a green sub-pixel.

18. A display panel, comprising the pixel arrangement structure according to claim 1 .

19. A display device, comprising the display panel according to claim 18 .
