an organic light emitting structure 20 positioned in the display region 110 of the substrate 10;
a first retaining wall 30 located in the non-display region 120 of the substrate 10 and surrounding the display region 110;
a thin film encapsulation layer 40, the thin film encapsulation layer 40 covering the organic light emitting structure 20; the thin film encapsulation layer 40 includes an organic layer 41, and the organic layer 41 is located in the region surrounded by the first retaining wall 30;
the first retaining wall 30 includes a first surface 31 and a second surface 32 that are oppositely disposed, the first surface 31 is a surface of the first retaining wall 30 away from the display area 110, the second surface 32 is a surface of the first retaining wall 30 adjacent to the display area 110, and a shape of a vertical projection of the first surface 31 on the substrate 10 is the same as a shape of a boundary of the display area 110; the first wall 30 includes a first portion 33 having a plurality of protrusions on a vertical projection of a second surface 32 of the first portion on a substrate.
The substrate 10 is an array substrate for driving the organic light emitting structure 20 to emit light, the substrate 10 includes a display area 110 and a non-display area 120, the display area 110 has the organic light emitting structure 20 correspondingly, so that a picture is displayed, and an area corresponding to the non-display area 120 does not display the picture. The array substrate includes a substrate, which may be flexible and may be formed of any suitable insulating material having flexibility. The substrate 10 may be transparent, translucent or opaque.
The organic light emitting structure 20 is formed on the substrate 10 within the display region 110 of the substrate 10, and the organic light emitting structure 20 generally includes an anode, a light emitting layer, and a cathode.
The thin film encapsulation layer 40 is positioned on the organic light emitting structure 20. The thin film encapsulation layer 40 protects the light emitting layer and other thin layers from external moisture, oxygen, and the like. The thin film encapsulation layer 40 may include an inorganic layer 42 and an organic layer 41, and the inorganic layer 42 and the organic layer 41 are alternately stacked. The first retaining wall 30 is disposed in the non-display region 120 of the substrate 10 and surrounds the display region 110, the first retaining wall 30 can serve as a stop layer for the organic layer 41 in the thin film encapsulation layer 40, and is covered by the inorganic layer 42 of the thin film encapsulation layer 40, and meanwhile, the first retaining wall 30 can further improve the water and oxygen blocking effect of the display panel, and prevent the crack of the inorganic layer from being transmitted and propagated.
Specifically, the organic layer 41 is formed by an inkjet printing process, and is gradually cured from a liquid state to a solid state, and the organic layer 41 has certain fluidity during the curing process. The first barriers 30 define the organic layer 41 in the region surrounded by the first barriers 30, so as to prevent the organic layer 41 from spreading and increasing the width of the non-display region 120. In the curing process of the organic layer 41, the boundary where the organic layer 41 spreads is not in a regular shape, and if the shape of the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 is different from the shape of the boundary where the organic layer 41 spreads, so that the cut-off thickness of the organic layer 41 at the first retaining wall 30 is different, it may happen that the thickness of a partial region is small, that is, the organic layer 41 is thin, or the thickness is zero, that is, the organic layer 41 is absent, which affects the display effect of the display panel. In the embodiment, the first retaining wall 30 includes the first portion 33, and the second surface 32 of the first portion 33 has a plurality of protrusions in the vertical projection of the substrate, so that the shape of the first retaining wall 30 can be better connected with the spreading boundary of the organic layer 41, the stop thickness of the organic layer 41 at the first retaining wall 30 is more uniform, and the problem that the whole performance of the display panel is affected due to the fact that the organic layer 41 is partially thinner or missing is avoided. Because the boundary of the display area 110 is generally rectangular and in other regular shapes, the shape of the vertical projection of the first surface 31 of the first retaining wall 30 on the substrate 10 is the same as the shape of the boundary of the display area 110, so that the first surface 31 is a surface with a simpler regular shape, the difficulty in manufacturing the first retaining wall 30 is reduced, the stress on the first surface 31 is large when the display panel is bent, the structural strength of the first surface 31 can be effectively enhanced by setting the first surface 31 to be a surface with a regular shape, and the influence on the display of the display panel due to cracks generated when the display panel is bent is avoided.
It should be noted that the first portion 33 is a portion of the first retaining wall 30 corresponding to a region of the organic layer 41 where the deletion is likely to occur, and the first portion 33 may be a portion of the first retaining wall 30 or the entire first retaining wall 30.
Optionally, the display panel includes a bending region, and at least a portion of the first portion 33 is located in the bending region.
Specifically, the bending area of the display panel, that is, the area where the display panel is deformed, when the bending area is deformed, the organic layer 41 located in the bending area is deformed, and at this time, the thinner area and the missing area of the organic layer 41 can be peeled off, so that the missing area of the organic layer 41 is large, and display is affected. Through the bending area that sets up at least part of first portion 33 and be located display panel for can be better in the border linking with organic layer 41 of bending area first barricade 30, avoided display panel to buckle in-process organic layer 41 and produce the disappearance and influence and show, improved display panel's resistant bending performance.
Fig. 3 is a schematic top view of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 4 is a schematic top view of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Alternatively, referring to fig. 1, 3 and 4, the boundary of the display 110 area is shaped as a rectangle, a circular arc rectangle or a circle. Specifically, because the shape of the first surface 31 of the first retaining wall 30 in the vertical projection of the substrate 10 is the same as the shape of the boundary of the display area 110, when the shape of the boundary of the display area 110 is rectangular, circular arc rectangular or circular, the first surface 31 is a plane or a cylindrical surface with a simpler shape, the difficulty in manufacturing the first retaining wall 30 is reduced, and the stress on the first surface 31 is large when the display panel is bent, by setting the first surface 31 to be a plane or a cylindrical surface, the bending resistance of the first retaining wall 30 can be effectively enhanced, the first surface 31 of the first retaining wall 30 can be effectively prevented from generating cracks to affect the performance of the whole first retaining wall 31 when the display panel is bent, and the display of the display panel is affected.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 1 and 3, when the boundary of the display area 110 is rectangular, the first portion 33 is a portion of the first retaining wall 30 corresponding to two longer sides of the display area 110.
Specifically, because the two organic layers 41 with longer side length in the display area 110 have longer spreading boundaries, and the two longer side lengths in the display area 110 are usually the sides deformed by bending stress when the display panel is bent, the organic layers 41 are more likely to have missing or thinner areas at the boundaries, and the first portion 33 is the portion corresponding to the two longer side lengths in the display area 110, so that the first retaining wall 30 can be better connected with the boundaries of the organic layers 41, and the bending resistance and the display performance of the display panel are improved.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 4, the second surfaces 32 of all the first retaining walls 30 have a plurality of protrusions in the vertical projection of the base plate 10.
Specifically, when the display panel can be bent in various directions, each boundary of the organic layer 41 may be subjected to bending stress, and a large missing region of the organic layer 41 appears, and the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 is provided with a plurality of protruding portions, so that the whole boundary of the organic layer 41 can be better connected with the first retaining wall 30, and the missing of the organic layer 41 can be more effectively avoided.
Fig. 5 is a schematic top view of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 6 is a schematic top view of another display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Alternatively, referring to fig. 1 and 3-6, the shape of the protrusion is triangular, trapezoidal, pentagonal, wavy, or semicircular.
Specifically, the shape of the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 can be set according to the shape of the boundary of the organic layer 41, and the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 can better adapt to different organic layers 41 spreading the boundary by setting the shape of the protruding portion to be triangular, trapezoidal, pentagonal, wavy or semicircular, so that the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 can better engage with the boundary of the organic layer 41, and the display performance and the bending resistance of the display panel are improved.
It should be noted that the distance between the plurality of protruding portions may be zero or not, the same first retaining wall may also include protruding portions with various shapes, and the shape of the protruding portion may also be a combination of the above shapes.
Preferably, the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 has a wave shape in vertical projection on the base plate 10. The conventional organic layer 41 is usually formed by an inkjet printing technology, and the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 is in a wave shape in a vertical projection on the substrate 10, so that the wave shape can be better connected with a spreading boundary of the organic layer 41, and the display performance and the bending resistance of the display panel are improved.
Alternatively, referring to FIG. 6, the protrusion has a first dimension s1 along the extending direction of the first retaining wall 30, and the protrusion has a second dimension s2 along the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the first retaining wall 30, wherein s1 ≧ s 2.
By such arrangement, the shape of the second surface 32 of the first retaining wall 30 better conforms to the shape of the boundary of the organic layer 41, and the second surface can be better connected with the boundary of the organic layer, so that the display performance and the bending resistance of the display panel are improved.
Optionally, referring to fig. 6, the maximum dimension of the first retaining wall 30 along the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the first retaining wall 30 is S, and S2 is not more than S/2.
Specifically, the maximum dimension S is a dimension of the first retaining wall 30 at the protruding portion in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the first retaining wall 30. The region between two adjacent protruding portions is the recess district, the size of the first barricade in this recess district along the perpendicular direction of extending direction with first barricade 30 is S3, S2+ S3 for S, when second size S2 is too big, first barricade 30 is at the size S3 undersize in the recess district, can't guarantee first barricade 30' S structural strength, be less than or equal to S/2 through setting up S2, when guaranteeing that first barricade 30 has less width, guaranteed that first barricade has higher structural strength, and can be better link up with the boundary of organic layer 41, the resistant bending performance and the display performance of display panel have been improved.
Optionally, the value range of S is 7-25 μm.
Specifically, when S is too large, it is not favorable to reducing the frame width of the display panel, and when S is small, the structural strength of the first retaining wall 30 is low, and the effect of blocking the organic layer 41 cannot be well achieved, and by setting S to be 7-25 μm, the organic layer 41 can be better blocked while the display panel is ensured to have a small frame width, and the structural strength of the panel is improved.

Specifically, the first inorganic layer 421 and the second inorganic layer 422 are mainly used to prevent moisture and oxygen from entering the display panel to corrode the organic light emitting structure 20, and the first organic layer 411 mainly plays a role of buffering to reduce stress between the first inorganic layer 421 and the second inorganic layer 422. The film encapsulation layer 40 comprises three film layers, namely a first inorganic layer 421, a first organic layer 411 and a second inorganic layer 422, so that on one hand, water vapor and oxygen can be prevented from entering the display panel, on the other hand, the film encapsulation layer 40 has smaller thickness, and the development trend of light and thin display panel is met.
Optionally, the minimum thickness of the first organic layer 411 is d1, the distance from the surface of the first retaining wall 30 far away from the substrate 10 to the surface of the first organic layer 411 close to the substrate 10 is d2, and d1/d2 is greater than or equal to 2/3 and less than 1.
With such an arrangement, the first retaining wall 30 has a smaller height and can better block the first organic layer 411, which is in line with the development trend of light and thin display panels. The minimum thickness of the first organic layer 411 is the thickness of the joint of the first organic layer 411 and the first retaining wall 30.
Optionally, d1 is more than or equal to 2 μm. By the arrangement, the first organic layer 411 can coat particles below 2um, has better particle coating performance, and can meet the indexes of a common clean room with high cleanliness.
Alternatively, d1 ═ 2 μm and d2 ═ 3 μm. With such an arrangement, the first retaining wall 30 has a smaller height and can better block the first organic layer 411, which is in line with the development trend of light and thin display panels.

Specifically, the second retaining wall 50 is used for blocking the inorganic layer of the thin film encapsulation layer 40 and supporting a mask used for manufacturing the inorganic layer. Because the second retaining wall 50 is closer to the outer boundary of the display panel, the stress that the second retaining wall 50 receives when the display panel is bent is larger, and the third surface 51 and the fourth surface 54 are both set to be the same as the shape of the boundary of the display area 110, i.e., both are flat planes or cylindrical surfaces, so that the second retaining wall 50 is not easy to crack under the action of larger bending stress, and the bending resistance of the display panel is improved.
