Detailed Description
The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. The following examples are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. The examples, where specific techniques or conditions are not indicated, are to be construed according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature in the art or according to the product specifications.
In one aspect of the invention, a display backplane is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1, the display back plate includes: a substrate 100; a plurality of sub-pixels 200 periodically distributed on the first surface 110 of the substrate 100, each sub-pixel distribution period including N sub-pixels 200 distributed in a row or a column, the micro-cavity lengths of the N sub-pixels 200 are not identical, and the sub-pixel 200 with the largest micro-cavity length (the micro-cavity length is H1) among the N sub-pixels and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest micro-cavity length (the micro-cavity length is H3) among the N sub-pixels are not adjacent to each other, N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3 (for example, one sub-pixel distribution period and N ═ 5 in fig. 1). Because the sub-pixel 200 with the largest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels 200 is not adjacent to the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels, the microcavity section difference between the microcavity lengths of two adjacent sub-pixels 200 is small, so that the third electrode 260 at the connection position of two adjacent sub-pixels cannot be broken due to the large microcavity section difference, and the display quality and the product yield of the display back panel are improved.
As is well known to those skilled in the art, referring to fig. 1 and 2, the structure between the surface of the reflective layer 220 away from the substrate and the surface of the third electrode 260 close to the substrate in each sub-pixel forms a micro-cavity structure of one sub-pixel, and the micro-cavity length of the micro-cavity structure refers to the perpendicular distance between the surface of the reflective layer away from the substrate and the surface of the third electrode close to the substrate, where H (H1, H2, and H3 in the figure represent the micro-cavity lengths of sub-pixels of different colors) is an integral multiple of half a wavelength, that is, H ═ m × λ/2(λ is the wavelength of light, and m is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1), so that light of a predetermined color can be effectively emitted, and therefore, the micro-cavity lengths of sub-pixels of different colors are different, for example, RGB, the micro-cavity lengths of sub-pixels such as green sub-pixels, red sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels are different, and the micro-cavity length of red sub-pixels is greater than that of green sub-pixels, the microcavity length of the green sub-pixel is longer than the microcavity length of the blue sub-pixel.
Therefore, as described above, because the lengths of the micro cavities of the sub-pixels with different colors are different, the surfaces of the micro-cavity structures of the sub-pixels are uneven, and micro-cavity section differences exist between adjacent sub-pixels, when the third electrode 260 is formed, the third electrode has a fracture risk due to a large micro-cavity section difference, so that the third electrode at the fracture cannot load a signal, and a local pixel cannot be lighted, thereby seriously affecting the display effect of the display backplane.
If the sub-pixel 200 with the largest microcavity length and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest microcavity length among the N sub-pixels are adjacently disposed as shown in fig. 2 (two sub-pixel distribution periods are taken as an example in fig. 2, and each sub-pixel distribution period includes 3 sub-pixels 200 distributed in rows or columns), when the third electrode 260 of the OLED device is formed, since the microcavity section difference Δ H13 between the sub-pixel 200 with the largest microcavity length (the microcavity length H1) and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest microcavity length (the microcavity length H3) is large, such as when RGB pixels are arranged, the microcavity section difference between a red sub-pixel and a blue sub-pixel can reach 1000 angstroms, and the thickness of the third electrode is thin (for example, about 130 angstroms), the third electrode at the position where the sub-pixel 200 with the largest microcavity length (the microcavity length H1) and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest microcavity length (the microcavity length H3) are connected easily broken when RGB pixels are arranged, the third electrode at the fracture part can not load signals, and local pixels can not be lightened, so that the display effect of the display backboard is seriously influenced. Therefore, in the application, the sub-pixel 200 with the largest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels are not adjacently arranged, so that the microcavity section difference between the adjacent sub-pixels can be effectively shortened, and the risk of breaking the third electrode is reduced or avoided.
In order to realize the different micro-cavity lengths of the sub-pixels with different colors, the micro-cavity length can be adjusted by the cavity length adjusting layer, and the specific structure of each sub-pixel 200 in the present application is described in detail below according to some specific embodiments of the present invention: referring to fig. 1, one sub-pixel 200 includes: a first electrode 210, the first electrode 210 being disposed on the first surface 110; a reflective layer 220, wherein the reflective layer 220 is disposed on a side of the first electrode 210 away from the substrate 100; the cavity length adjusting layer 230, the cavity length adjusting layer 230 is arranged on one side of the reflecting layer 220 far away from the substrate 100, and a through hole 231 is arranged in the cavity length adjusting layer 230; a second electrode 240, wherein the second electrode 240 is disposed on a side of the cavity length adjusting layer 230 away from the substrate 100, and the second electrode 240 is electrically connected to the reflective layer 220 through a through hole 231; a light emitting function layer 250, wherein the light emitting function layer 250 is arranged on one side of the second electrode 240 far away from the substrate 100; and a third electrode 260, wherein the third electrode 260 is arranged on the side of the light-emitting function layer 250 far away from the substrate 100. Therefore, the light emitting function of the sub-pixels is realized, and the display function of the display back plate is further realized.
Note that the thickness h of the cavity length adjusting layer 230 is equal to the microcavity length, the thickness of the light-emitting functional layer, and the thickness of the second electrode. In some embodiments, the thicknesses of the second electrode and the light-emitting functional layer in different sub-pixels are substantially the same, so that the difference in the microcavity section between adjacent sub-pixels is equal to the difference in the thicknesses of the cavity length adjusting layers in the adjacent sub-pixels. Therefore, a person skilled in the art can flexibly design the thickness of the required cavity length adjusting layer according to the required cavity length of the micro-cavity, the thickness of the second electrode, the thickness of the light-emitting functional layer and the like.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the substrate may include a thin film transistor (including a source, a drain, a gate, an active layer, and other structures) and various insulating layers, planarization layers, and other structures disposed in the thin film transistor, and the above-mentioned various specific structures may be disposed according to conventional techniques, and will not be described in detail herein.
The OLED device in the display back plate is of a structure between the first electrode and the third electrode, wherein the reflecting layer is arranged for reflecting light rays in the light-emitting function layer, the utilization rate of the light rays is improved, and the display effect is further improved, wherein the material for forming the reflecting layer has no limitation requirement, and the material is only required to be light-tight and not light-absorbing, such as at least one of materials such as aluminum, silver and the like; the second electrode is electrically connected with the reflecting layer through the through hole, and the reflecting layer is directly contacted and connected with the first electrode, so the first electrode is electrically connected with the second electrode, and the first electrode and the second electrode jointly form an anode of the OLED device, wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are transparent electrodes and can be formed by Indium Tin Oxide (ITO); the light-emitting functional layer comprises a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer and the like; and the third electrode forms a cathode of the OLED device, and cooperates with the anode to apply voltage to the light-emitting functional layer to realize the light-emitting function of the light-emitting functional layer, wherein the material forming the third electrode comprises but is not limited to at least one of magnesium and silver.
In some embodiments, the material for forming the cavity length adjusting layer is not particularly limited, and one skilled in the art can flexibly select the material according to practical situations as long as the normal function of the OLED device is ensured, for example, the material for forming the cavity length adjusting layer includes, but is not limited to, at least one of silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, and the like. Therefore, the material source is wide, the cost is low, the light transmittance is good, and the light utilization rate is not influenced.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1 and fig. 3, each sub-pixel distribution period includes an odd number of sub-pixels (five sub-pixels are taken as an example in the figure), and in the distribution direction of the odd number of sub-pixels 200, the micro-cavity length H of the sub-pixel gradually increases or gradually decreases from the middle to both sides, specifically: as shown in fig. 1, in the distribution direction of the odd number of sub-pixels 200, the micro-cavity length H of the sub-pixel 200 gradually increases from H3 to H1 from the middle to both sides; or as shown in fig. 3, in the distribution direction of the odd number of sub-pixels 200, the micro-cavities H of the sub-pixels 200 gradually decrease from H1 to H3 from the middle to both sides. Therefore, in each sub-pixel distribution period, the sub-pixel 200 with the largest micro-cavity length (the micro-cavity length is H1) in odd sub-pixels and the sub-pixel 200 with the smallest micro-cavity length (the micro-cavity length is H3) in N sub-pixels are not adjacently arranged, so that the micro-cavity section difference between the adjacent pixels can be effectively shortened, the risk of breaking the third electrode is reduced or avoided, and the display quality and the product yield of the display back panel are finally improved.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 3 and 4, each sub-pixel 200 distribution period includes a first sub-pixel 201, a second sub-pixel 202, a third sub-pixel 203, a second sub-pixel 202, and a first sub-pixel 201, which are distributed in sequence, and the first sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel have different colors. Therefore, the normal display function of the display back plate is realized. As shown in fig. 4, the microcavity length H1 of the first sub-pixel is greater than the microcavity length H2 of the second sub-pixel, the microcavity length H2 of the second sub-pixel is greater than the microcavity length H3 of the third sub-pixel, and the first sub-pixel with the maximum microcavity length H1 is not adjacent to the third sub-pixel with the minimum microcavity length H3; alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, the microcavity length H1 of the first sub-pixel is less than the microcavity length H2 of the second sub-pixel, and the microcavity length H2 of the second sub-pixel is less than the microcavity length H3 of the third sub-pixel, in both cases, the third sub-pixel of the maximum microcavity length H3 is not disposed adjacent to the first sub-pixel of the minimum microcavity length H1. The microcavity section difference between the adjacent sub-pixels can be reduced under the two conditions, so that the risk of breakage of the third electrode is reduced or avoided, and finally the display quality and the product yield of the display back plate are improved.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the first sub-pixel 201 is a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel 202 is a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel 203 is a blue sub-pixel. Therefore, the display effect of three primary colors can be effectively realized, in red light, green light and blue light, the wavelength of the red light is maximum, the wavelength of the blue light is minimum, namely the length of the micro cavity of the red sub-pixel is maximum, the length of the micro cavity of the blue sub-pixel is minimum, the red light and the blue light are arranged at intervals, the green sub-pixel is arranged between the red light and the blue light, the existence of large micro cavity section difference between the red sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel is avoided, the risk of breakage of a third electrode is reduced or avoided, and the display quality and the product yield of the display back plate are finally improved.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the first sub-pixel 201 is a blue sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel 202 is a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel 203 is a red sub-pixel. Therefore, the display effect of three primary colors can be effectively realized, in red light, green light and blue light, the wavelength of the red light is maximum, the wavelength of the blue light is minimum, namely the length of the micro cavity of the red sub-pixel is maximum, the length of the micro cavity of the blue sub-pixel is minimum, the red light and the blue light are arranged at intervals, the green sub-pixel is arranged between the red light and the blue light, the existence of large micro cavity section difference between the red sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel is avoided, the risk of breakage of a third electrode is reduced or avoided, and the display quality and the product yield of the display back plate are finally improved.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 5 (two sub-pixel distribution periods are listed in fig. 5), the light emitting area c of one third sub-pixel 203 is larger than the light emitting area a of one first sub-pixel 201, and the light emitting area c of one third sub-pixel 203 is larger than the light emitting area b of one second sub-pixel 202 (i.e., c > a, c > b). Therefore, the display quality and the pixel resolution of the display back plate are improved by matching different light-emitting areas with the light-emitting efficiency of different sub-pixels. The size relationship between the light-emitting area of the first sub-pixel and the light-emitting area of the second sub-pixel has no special limitation requirement, and a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the size relationship according to actual requirements such as pixel resolution, light-emitting efficiency and the like; in addition, specific light-emitting areas of the first sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel and the third sub-pixel have no special requirement, and a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific light-emitting areas according to actual requirements such as pixel resolution, light-emitting efficiency and the like.
In another aspect of the invention, a method of making a display backplane is provided. According to the embodiment of the invention, the method for manufacturing the display back plate comprises the following steps: a plurality of sub-pixels 200 are formed on the first surface 110 of the substrate 100 in a periodic distribution, wherein, referring to fig. 1 and 3, each sub-pixel distribution period includes N sub-pixels 200 distributed in rows or columns, the lengths H of the micro-cavities of the N sub-pixels 200 are not identical, and the sub-pixel with the largest length of the micro-cavity in the N sub-pixels 200 is not adjacent to the sub-pixel with the smallest length of the micro-cavity in the N sub-pixels 200, and N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3. In the manufacturing method, the sub-pixel with the largest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels is not adjacent to the sub-pixel with the smallest microcavity length in the N sub-pixels, so that the microcavity section difference between the two adjacent sub-pixels is small, and the third electrode at the joint of the two adjacent sub-pixels cannot be broken due to the large microcavity section difference, so that the display quality and the product yield of the display back plate are improved; moreover, the preparation method is simple, easy to operate, convenient for industrial production and free from increasing the production cost.

In the step, the orthographic projection of the non-etched dielectric layer on the substrate covers the orthographic projection of the pixel 1 and the sub-pixel N on the substrate, and the non-etched dielectric layers respectively form cavity length adjusting layers of the sub-pixel 1 and the sub-pixel N; after the first etching, the dielectric layers of the sub-pixel 2 and the sub-pixel N-1 are covered by the orthographic projection on the substrate to form cavity length adjusting layers of the sub-pixel 2 and the sub-pixel N-1.
