Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A substrate, a display panel and a display apparatus are provided. The substrate is provided with a fan-out area. The fan-out area includes a middle region and side regions. The middle region has first metal wires arranged therein. The side regions have second metal wires arranged thereon. Lengths of the second metal wires in the side regions are greater than lengths of the first metal wires in the middle region, and impedances of the first metal wires in the middle region are higher than impedances of the second metal wires in the side regions.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A substrate provided with a fan-out area, wherein the fan-out area comprises: a middle region, wherein a plurality of first metal wires are arranged in the middle region; and side regions, wherein a plurality of second metal wires are arranged in the side regions, and the side regions are located at two sides of the middle region; wherein lengths of the second metal wires in the side regions are greater than lengths of the first metal wires in the middle region; wherein impedances of the first metal wires in the middle region are higher than impedances of the second metal wires in the side regions; wherein, for the second metal wires in the side regions, the closer the second metal wire to the middle region, the shorter the length is and the higher the impedance is; wherein, for the first metal wires in the middle region, the closer the first metal wire to a center position of the middle region, the shorter the length is and the higher the impedance is. 2 . The substrate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first metal wires in the middle region are meandered. 3 . The substrate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second metal wires in the side regions are meandered. 4 . The substrate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first metal wires and/or the second metal wires are an electrically conductive layer deposited onto the substrate. 5 . The substrate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first metal wires and/or the second metal wires are electrically conductive wires fixedly connected onto the substrate. 6 . A display panel comprising a substrate, a color filter substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a first polarizer and a second polarizer; wherein the substrate is an array substrate, a first electrode layer equipped with transistors and a first alignment layer covering the first electrode layer are disposed at an inner side of the array substrate, and a display area and a border area are disposed on the first electrode layer; wherein a second electrode layer and a second alignment layer covering the second electrode layer are disposed at an inner side of the color filter substrate, and the liquid crystal layer is disposed between the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer; wherein the first polarizer is disposed at an outer side of the array substrate, and the second polarizer is disposed at an outer side of the color filter substrate; wherein a fan-out area is disposed in the border area and comprises: a middle region, wherein a plurality of first metal wires are arranged in the middle region; side regions, wherein a plurality of second metal wires are arranged in the side regions, and the side regions are respectively located at two sides of the middle region; wherein lengths of the second metal wires in the side regions are greater than lengths of the first metal wires in the middle region; wherein impedances of the first metal wires in the middle region are higher than impedances of the second metal wires in the side regions. 7 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein for the second metal wires in the side regions, the closer the second metal wire to the middle region, the shorter the length is and the higher the impedance is. 8 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein for the first metal wires in the middle region, the closer the first metal wire to a center position of the middle region, the shorter the length is and the higher the impedance is. 9 . The display panel as claimed in claim 7 , wherein for the first metal wires in the middle region, the closer the first metal wire to a center position of the middle region, the shorter the length is and the higher the impedance is. 10 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first metal wires in the middle region are meandered. 11 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the second metal wires in the side regions are meandered. 12 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first metal wires and/or the second metal wires are an electrically conductive layer deposited onto the substrate or electrically conductive wires fixedly connected onto the substrate. 13 . The display panel as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the display panel is a liquid crystal panel, a semiconductor light emitting diode display panel or an organic light emitting diode display panel. 14 . A display apparatus comprising a backlight module; wherein the display apparatus has a display panel, the display panel comprises a substrate, a color filter substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a first polarizer and a second polarizer; the substrate is an array substrate, a first electrode layer equipped with transistors and a first alignment layer covering the first electrode layer are disposed at an inner side of the array substrate, and a display area and a border area are disposed on the first electrode layer; wherein a second electrode layer and a second alignment layer covering the second electrode layer are disposed at an inner side of the color filter substrate, and the liquid crystal layer is disposed between the first alignment layer and the second alignment layer; wherein the first polarizer is disposed at an outer side of the array substrate, and the second polarizer is disposed at an outer side of the color filter substrate; wherein a fan-out area is disposed in the border area and comprises: a middle region, wherein a plurality of first metal wires are arranged in the middle region; side regions, wherein a plurality of second metal wires are arranged in the side regions, and the side regions are respectively located at two sides of the middle region; wherein lengths of the second metal wires in the side regions are greater than lengths of the first metal wires in the middle region; wherein impedances of the first metal wires in the middle region are higher than impedances of the second metal wires in the side regions. 15 .
