[0025] The technical solutions according to the embodiments of the disclosure will be described below clearly and fully with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the disclosure, and apparently the embodiments to be described are only a part but not all of the embodiments of the disclosure. Based upon the embodiments here of the disclosure, all the other embodiments which can occur to those ordinarily skilled in the art without any inventive effort shall fall into the claimed scope of the disclosure.
[0026] As illustrated in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3, an array substrate according to the embodiments of the disclosure includes: a base substrate 101; a plurality of pixel units 1 on the base substrate 101; at least one recess c in the plurality of pixel units 1, and pixel electrodes 2 in the plurality of pixel units 1 and covering the at least one recess c; where an orthographic projection of an opening of each recess c onto the base substrate 101 covers an orthographic projection of a bottom of the recess c onto the base substrate 101, and an area of the orthographic projection of the opening of the recess c onto the base substrate 101 is greater than an area of the orthographic projection of the bottom of the recess c onto the base substrate 101.
[0027] In the array substrate according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the recess(s) is or are arranged in the pixel units, the orthographic projection of the opening of each recess onto the base substrate covers the orthographic projection of the bottom thereof onto the base substrate, and the area of the orthographic projection of the opening of each recess onto the base substrate is greater than the area of the orthographic projection of the bottom thereof onto the base substrate; and pixel electrodes cover the recess(s) so that the pixel electrodes can be formed with recess area(s) and circumferential depth difference(s) exists or exist in the recess area(s) of the pixel electrodes. Furthermore, when the array substrate is applied to a liquid crystal display panel, electric field(s) around the recess area(s) of the pixel electrodes can vary along a circumferential direction. Stated otherwise, since the pixel electrodes are provided with recess area(s), an electric field between the pixel electrodes and a common electrode can vary so that liquid crystal molecules are arranged in a direction of the electric field to form a multi-domain state, and thus a multi-domain liquid crystal display can be achieved. Furthermore, the liquid crystal display panel according to the embodiments of the disclosure can have an extended angle of view, and thus the display effect of the image can be improved.
[0028] In a particular implementation, in the embodiments of the disclosure, as illustrated in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3, the array substrate further includes: a reservation layer 4 between the pixel electrodes 2 and the base substrate 101, and a first insulation layer 51 between the reservation layer 4 and the pixel electrodes 2, where the first insulation layer 51 includes at least one first via hole 53 in the pixel units 2, and the reservation layer 4 includes a second via hole 41 corresponding to each first via hole 53; where an orthographic projection of each first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101, and an orthographic projection of a corresponding second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101 have an overlapping area; and each recess c can include a first via hole 53 and a corresponding second via hole 41. In this way, an orthographic projection of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101 partially overlaps with an orthographic projection of a corresponding first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101, and the orthographic projection of each first via hole 53 onto the reservation layer 4 covers at least an area of the reservation layer 4 in which no second via hole 41 is arranged, so that there is a depth difference in a circumferential direction of each recess c, and thus there is a depth difference in a circumferential direction of a recess area of the pixel electrodes. Furthermore, since the pixel electrodes come into contact with the reservation layer, thereby the adhesiveness of the pixel electrodes can be improved.
[0029] In a particular implementation, in the embodiments of the disclosure, as illustrated in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3, a pattern of each second via hole 41 includes an ellipse, and a pattern of each first via hole 51 can also include an ellipse. An orthographic projection of a long axis of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101 intersects with an orthographic projection of a long axis of a corresponding first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101, thus resulting in a recess with a different circumferential depth. Furthermore, an angle a between the orthographic projection of the long axis of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101, and the orthographic projection of the long axis of the corresponding first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101 can be one of a number of angles, and optionally the angle a is greater than 0 degree, and less than or equal to 90 degrees, e.g., 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 34 degrees, 40 degrees, 55 degrees, 59 degrees, 70 degrees, 78 degrees, 83 degrees, 88 degrees, 90 degrees, etc., although a repeated description thereof will be omitted here. Furthermore, in the embodiments of the disclosure, the angle a between the orthographic projection of the long axis of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101, and the orthographic projection of the long axis of the corresponding first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101 is equal to or greater than 35 degrees, and less than or equal to 75 degrees. In this angle range, it is easier to realize a multi-domain liquid crystal display. Of course, the pattern of each first via hole can alternatively include a circle, and a diameter thereof can be greater than that of a minor axis of a corresponding second via hole.
[0030] In a particular implementation, as illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 4, the array substrate further includes: a plurality of data lines 7 extending in a column direction, a plurality of gate lines 8 extending in a row direction, and thin film transistors located in respective pixel units; where each thin film transistor includes a gate, an active layer 6, and a source and a drain electrically connected with the active layer, which are located on the base substrate in that order. And the array substrate further includes: a gate insulation layer between active layers and a layer at which gates are located, a second insulation layer between the gates and a layer at which sources and drains are located, a third insulation layer between the layer at which the sources and the drains are located and a layer at which the pixel electrodes are located. The sources and the drains are electrically connected with the active layers through via holes extending through the second insulation layer and the gate insulation layer. The pixel electrodes are electrically connected with the drains of the thin film transistors through via holes extending through the third insulation layer. The gates of the thin film transistors are connected with the gate lines, the sources are connected with the data lines, and the drains are connected with the pixel electrodes. Furthermore, the data lines can be arranged at the same layer, and made of the same material, as the sources and the drains of the thin film transistors. The gate lines can be arranged at the same layer, and made of the same material, as the gates of the thin film transistors. In this way, the data lines can be located between the base substrate and the first insulation layer.
[0031] Furthermore, as illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 4, the array substrate further includes a common electrode 3. In a practical application, the shapes of the pixel electrodes and the common electrode can be set as needed in reality, and there may be a number of particular positions of the common electrode 3. Optionally, in a particular implementation, the array substrate further includes a common electrode arranged at the same layer as the gate lines. In this way, the liquid crystal molecules can be driven by an electric field between the common electrode and the pixel electrodes for an effect of forming the multi-domain liquid crystal. This structural arrangement can simplify a fabrication process, and make it convenient to fabricate the array substrate.
[0032] In a particular implementation, the reservation layer 4 can be arranged at the same layer, and made of the same material, as the data lines 7. In this way, the patterns of the reservation layer and the data lines can be formed in one patterning process to thereby simplify a fabrication process, save a production cost, and improve the production efficiency. At this time, the third insulation layer can be used as the first insulation layer. The reservation layer may not be electrically connected with any of the data lines, the sources and the drains, or the reservation layer may be electrically connected with the drains, although the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto.
[0033] Alternatively, the reservation layer can be arranged at the same layer, and made of the same material, as the gate lines. In this way, the patterns of the reservation layer and the gate lines can be formed in one patterning process to thereby simplify a fabrication process, save a production cost, and improve the production efficiency. At this time, the second insulation layer and the third insulation layer can be used as the first insulation layer.
[0034] Alternatively, the reservation layer can be arranged at the same layer, and made of the same material, as the active layers of the thin film transistors. In this way, the patterns of the reservation layer and the active layers can be formed in one patterning process to thereby simplify a fabrication process, save a production cost, and improve the production efficiency. At this time, the gate insulation layer, the second insulation layer and the third insulation layer can be used as the first insulation layer.
[0035] In a particular implementation, as illustrated in Fig. 2, the gate insulation layer 52 includes a third via hole 54 corresponding to each first via hole 53; the orthographic projection of each first via hole 53 onto the base substrate 101, and an orthographic projection of a corresponding third via hole 54 onto the base substrate 101 have an overlapping area; and each recess c can include a first via hole 53, a corresponding second via hole 41, and a corresponding third via hole 54. In this way, a gradient of each recess c can be increased to thereby further increase the depth thereof.
[0036] Furthermore, as illustrated in Fig. 2 and Fig. 5, the array substrate further includes: an auxiliary layer 9 between the gate insulation layer 52 and the base substrate 101; the auxiliary layer 9 includes a fourth via hole 55 corresponding to each second via hole 41; the orthographic projection of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101 covers an orthographic projection of a corresponding fourth via hole 55 onto the base substrate 101; and each recess c can include a first via hole 53, a corresponding second via hole 41, and a corresponding fourth via hole 55. Furthermore, the orthographic projection of each second via hole 41 onto the base substrate 101 is larger than the orthographic projection of the corresponding fourth via hole 55 onto the base substrate 101 so that there are more steps of each recess c to thereby form the multi-domain liquid crystal further. In this way, the pixel electrodes can be further connected with the auxiliary layer 9 through the first via holes 53, the second via holes 41, and the fourth via holes 55 to thereby further improve the adhesiveness of the pixel electrode.
[0037] Furthermore, as illustrated in Fig. 6, each fourth via hole includes a tapered hole 91, where an angle β between an inclined surface of the tapered hole 91, and an upper surface of the base substrate 101 is greater than or equal to 15 degrees, and less than or equal to 75 degrees. In this way, the effect of the multi-domain display can be improved. Where the angle β above can be 15 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 75 degrees, etc., although a repeated description thereof will be omitted here. Furthermore, in order to facilitate fabrication, each first via hole 53, each second via hole 41, and each third via hole 54 can also be tapered holes.
[0038] Furthermore, in a particular implementation, the auxiliary layer can be located at the same layer as, and arranged insulated from, the gate lines. The auxiliary layer may or may not be made of the same material as the gate lines, although the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto. Furthermore, as illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the auxiliary layer 9 can be arranged insulated from the gate lines and the common electrode so that the gate insulation layer 52 can include the third via holes 54. As illustrated in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, the auxiliary layer 9 can be arranged insulated from the gate lines, and the auxiliary layer 9 can be electrically connected with the common electrode, so that the gate insulation layer 52 will not include the third via holes 54 to thereby avoid the pixel electrodes 2 from being electrically connected with the common electrode 3.
[0039] Furthermore, as illustrated in Fig. 7, the reservation layer 4 includes: a first sub-reservation layer 401 and a second sub-reservation layer 402, where the first sub-reservation layer 401 is arranged at the same layer as the sources of the thin film transistors, and the second sub-reservation layer 402 is arranged at the same layer as the active layers of the thin film transistors. Furthermore, each first via hole includes: a first sub-via hole 53a extending through the first insulation layer, and a second sub-via hole 54a extending through the second insulation layer 56 and the gate insulation layer. The first sub-reservation layer 401 includes a second via hole 41a, and the second sub-reservation layer 402 includes a second via hole 41b. In this way, the number of steps of each recess can be increased to thereby further increase the depth difference of the recess so as to improve the effect of the multi-domain display.
[0040] Furthermore, the patterns of each second via hole 41a and each second via hole 41b can include ellipses. An orthographic projection of a long axis of each second via hole 41a arranged on the first sub-reservation layer 401 onto the base substrate 101 intersects with an orthographic projection of a long axis of a corresponding second via hole 42b arranged on the second sub-reservation layer 402 onto the base substrate 101. In this way, there will be more steps of each recess to thereby make an electric field around each recess area of the pixel electrode more variable so as to further improve the effect of the multi-domain display.
[0041] Furthermore, the angle between the orthographic projection of the long axis of each second via hole 41a arranged on the first sub-reservation layer 401 onto the base substrate 101, and the orthographic projection of the long axis of the corresponding second via hole 41b arranged on the second sub-reservation layer onto the base substrate 101 is greater than 0 degree, and less than or equal to 90 degrees, e.g., 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 34 degrees, 40 degrees, 55 degrees, 59 degrees, 70 degrees, 78 degrees, 83 degrees, 88 degrees, 90 degrees, etc., although a repeated description thereof will be omitted here. Optionally, the angle between the orthographic projection of the long axis of each second via hole 41a onto the base substrate 101, and the orthographic projection of the long axis of the corresponding second via hole 41b onto the base substrate 101 is greater than or equal to 35 degrees, and less than or equal to 75 degrees.
[0042] Furthermore, in order to facilitate fabrication, and to improve the effect of the multi-domain display, an orthographic projection of a center of a first via hole arranged on the first sub-reservation layer onto the base substrate overlaps with an orthographic projection of a center of a corresponding first via hole arranged on the second sub-reservation layer onto the base substrate so that the orthographic projections of centers of a first via hole and a second via hole onto the base substrate 101 in a same recess can overlap with each other.
[0043] In a particular implementation, as illustrated in Fig. 8, each recess c is arranged on the upper surface of the base substrate 101, where a thickness of the base substrate 101 in an area where the recess c is located is less than a thickness of the base substrate 101 in the other areas. In this way, after the other layers are arranged on the base substrate, the other layers will be formed with a recess area, and a pixel electrode 2 can further cover the recess c so that the pixel electrode 2 can be formed with a recess area to thereby realize a multi-domain display.
[0044] Based upon the same inventive idea, the embodiments of the disclosure further provide a liquid crystal display panel including the array substrate according to the embodiments of the disclosure. The liquid crystal display panel addresses the problem under a similar principle to the array substrate above, so reference can be made to the implementation of the array substrate above for an implementation of the liquid crystal display panel, and a repeated description thereof will be omitted here.
[0045] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the disclosure, the liquid crystal display panel can further include: an opposite substrate arranged opposite to the array substrate, and a liquid crystal layer encapsulated between the array substrate and the opposite substrate.
[0046] Based upon the same inventive idea, the embodiments of the disclosure further provide a display device including the liquid crystal display panel according to the embodiments of the disclosure. Since the liquid crystal display panel can have an extended angle of view, and thus an improved image display effect, the display device according to the embodiments of the disclosure has a better display effect.
[0047] In a particular implementation, the display device according to the embodiments of the disclosure can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a TV set, a monitor, a notebook computer, a digital photo frame, a navigator, or any other product or component with a display function. All the other components indispensable to the display device shall readily occur to those ordinarily skilled in the art, so a repeated description thereof will be omitted here, and the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto.
[0048] Evidently those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Thus the invention is also intended to encompass these modifications and variations thereto so long as the modifications and variations come into the scope of the claims appended to the invention and their equivalents.
