Embodiments of the present invention provide a display panel, which may be an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display panel. Hereinafter, a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 shows a top view of a display panel according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 2 shows a cross-sectional view taken along a-a in fig. 1. The display panel 1000 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a substrate 100, a light emitting device layer 200, and a light adjusting layer 300.
The substrate 100 may be a substrate made of glass, and in some embodiments, may also be a substrate made of Polyimide (PI) material or a material containing PI, so that the substrate 100 may be bent.
The light emitting element layer 200 is located on the substrate 100. The light emitting element layer 200 includes a plurality of light emitting elements 210. In some embodiments, the light emitting device layer 200 includes a pixel defining layer 220, the pixel defining layer 220 has a plurality of pixel openings thereon, and the plurality of light emitting devices 210 are respectively disposed corresponding to the plurality of pixel openings. Here, the light-emitting element 210 is exemplified as an OLED light-emitting element. The light emitting element 210 includes a first electrode 211, a light emitting structure 212 on the first electrode 211, and a second electrode 213 on the light emitting structure 212. In some embodiments, the first electrode 211 is an anode of the light emitting element 210, the second electrode 213 is a cathode of the light emitting element 210, and the second electrodes 213 of the plurality of light emitting elements 210 may be interconnected as a common electrode.
The light adjusting layer 300 is located on the light emitting side of the light emitting device layer 200. The optical adjustment layer 300 includes a Black Matrix (BM) 310 and a plurality of filter units 320. The filter unit 320 is a Color Filter (CF). The black matrix 310 includes a plurality of openings 311, at least a portion of each of the filter units 320 is disposed in the openings 311, and the filter units 320 correspond to the light emitting elements 210 respectively. When the display panel 1000 is irradiated by the ambient light, the black matrix 310 can absorb a portion of the ambient light, and the filtering unit 320 can filter a portion of the ambient light, so as to reduce the luminous flux of the ambient light irradiated to the light emitting device layer 200, further reduce the ambient light reflected by the light emitting device 210, and reduce the adverse effect of the ambient light on the aspects of color calibration, contrast ratio, and the like of the display panel.
According to the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment of the present invention, each of the filter units 320 has a surface facing the light emitting element layer 200 and a surface facing away from the light emitting element layer 200, wherein at least a part of the surface of the filter unit 320 facing away from the light emitting element layer 200 is the diffuse reflection surface 321. The diffuse reflection surface 321, i.e., the uneven surface, may be obtained by roughening.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram showing an optical path of a light adjustment layer in a display panel according to a first embodiment of the present invention when the light adjustment layer is irradiated by ambient light. In the figure, the optical path of the external ambient light L1 is shown by a solid line with an arrow, and the optical path of the ambient light L2 reflected by the light-emitting element layer 200 is shown by a broken line with an arrow.
When the external ambient light L1 irradiates the optical adjustment layer 300, a part of the external ambient light L1 is diffusely reflected at the diffuse reflection surface 321 of the filtering unit 320, so as to reduce the reflection effect of the optical adjustment layer 300 on the external ambient light L1, improve the contrast when the display panel 1000 displays, and improve the appearance of the display panel 1000. In addition, the diffuse reflection surface 321 can totally reflect at least part of the ambient light L2 reflected by the light emitting element layer 200 to the black matrix 310, and the black matrix 310 absorbs the part of the light, thereby further reducing the reflection effect of the display panel 1000 on the ambient light.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the filtering unit 320 is 1 micron to 4 microns, wherein the flatness of the diffuse reflection surface 321 is 0.025 micron to 1.1 micron, so that the degree of the unevenness of the diffuse reflection surface 321 meets a proper flatness requirement, the diffuse reflection capability of the diffuse reflection surface 321 is improved under a certain thickness of the filtering unit 320, the reflection effect of the display panel on the ambient light observed by human eyes is reduced, and the display effect is improved.
FIG. 4 shows a graph of reflectance versus wavelength of illumination light for an optical modifier layer of a display panel 1000 and for an optical modifier layer of a display panel 2000 in a comparative example. In the display panel 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the filtering unit 320 of the optical adjusting layer 300 is 2 microns, and the flatness of the diffuse reflection surface 321 is substantially 0.1 micron; in the display panel 2000 of the comparative example, the light adjusting layer was a circular polarizer having a thickness of 66 μm, and the other structure was the same as that of the display panel 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention. The data results may be obtained by spectroscopic testing. Among them, the average reflectance of the optical adjustment layers of the display panel 2000 of the comparative example was 5.16%, and the average reflectance of the optical adjustment layers of the display panel 1000 of one embodiment of the present invention was 4.78%. As can be seen, according to the display panel 1000 of the embodiment of the invention, the average reflectivity of the improved optical modifier layer 300 to the external environment light can be reduced to be lower than the average reflectivity of the circular polarizer to the external environment light, so that the display panel can replace the circular polarizer, and the adverse effects of the environmental light on the aspects of the color accuracy, the contrast ratio, and the like of the display panel can be reduced.
In some embodiments, the display panel 1000 further includes a device layer 400 and an encapsulation layer 500.

In this embodiment, the display panel 1000 is a top emission display panel, that is, the side of the light emitting device layer 200 facing the encapsulation layer 500 is a light emitting side. The light adjusting layer 300 of the present embodiment is located on a side of the encapsulation layer 500 away from the substrate 100.
In some other embodiments, the display panel 1000 is a bottom emission display panel, i.e., the side of the light emitting device layer 200 facing the substrate 100 is the light emitting side. The light adjustment layer 300 may be provided on the side of the light-emitting element layer 200 facing the substrate 100, and the light adjustment layer 300 may be in contact with the light-emitting element layer 200, or may be provided with another layer directly interposed therebetween. For example, in some embodiments, the device layer 400 and the substrate 100 are disposed between the light emitting element layer 200 and the light modulation layer 300.
In some embodiments, the plurality of light-emitting elements 210 comprises a plurality of different colors; the plurality of filter units 320 include a plurality of colors different from each other.

The plurality of filter units 320 include a red filter unit, a green filter unit, and a blue filter unit, and the arrangement rule of the plurality of filter units 320 is correspondingly matched with the arrangement rule of the plurality of light emitting elements 210. In one example, the filter unit 320 on the left side in fig. 2 is a red filter unit, the filter unit 320 on the middle side is a green filter unit, and the filter unit 320 on the right side is a blue filter unit, so that the color between the filter unit 320 and the light emitting element 210 corresponding to the position is the same.
In some embodiments, the black matrix 310 includes a first surface 310a facing away from the light emitting element layer 200, and a portion of the filtering unit 320 is disposed to be raised with respect to the first surface 310 a.
Fig. 5 shows a projection of a partial structure of the region Q of fig. 1 onto a substrate. In some embodiments, a first orthographic projection 320s of the filtering unit 320 on the substrate 100 covers a second orthographic projection 311s of the boundary of the corresponding opening 311 on the substrate 100. Further, the size of the first orthographic projection 320s is larger than the size 311s of the second orthographic projection of the corresponding opening 311. In some embodiments, the outline of the first orthogonal projection 320s and the outline of the second orthogonal projection 311s corresponding to the opening 311 are similar, in this embodiment, both are square, and in other embodiments, the outline of the first orthogonal projection 320s and the outline of the second orthogonal projection 311s corresponding to the opening 311 may be rectangular, circular, oval, or other shapes.
In some embodiments, the outer contour of the first orthographic projection 320s has a spacing W from the contour of the second orthographic projection 311s corresponding to the opening 311, wherein the spacing W is greater than or equal to 2 microns.
With continued reference to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the optical modifier layer 300 further includes a light transmissive protective layer 330. The light-transmissive protective layer 330 may be made of a transparent material. The light-transmitting protection layer 330 is located on a side of the black matrix 310 away from the light-emitting device layer 200, and covers the black matrix 310 and the plurality of filtering units 320, so as to prevent the black matrix 310 and the plurality of filtering units 320 from being scratched. When the display panel 1000 is bendable, the light-transmitting protection layer 330 can prevent the black matrix 310 from being separated from the plurality of filter units 320, thereby improving the stability of the light adjusting layer 300.

The partial structure of the display panel 1000 of the second embodiment is the same as that of the display panel 1000 of the first embodiment, and only the differences therebetween will be described below, and the details of the same parts will not be described.

In addition, the diffuse reflection surface 321 can totally reflect at least part of the ambient light reflected by the partial structure of the light emitting element 210 to the black matrix 310, and the black matrix 310 absorbs the part of the ambient light, thereby further reducing the reflection effect of the display panel 1000 on the ambient light.

In step S132, a liquid filter material is coated on a surface of the black matrix facing away from the light emitting device layer, where the liquid filter material may be a band-pass transmissive photosensitive material, such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or other photosensitive polymer material. The liquid filter material covers at least part of the openings of the black matrix. In some embodiments, the size of the orthographic projection of the liquid filter material on the substrate is larger than the size of the opening of the corresponding black matrix.
In step S133, the liquid filter material is left standing so that a surface of the liquid filter material facing away from the light emitting element layer generates a collapsed structure. In some embodiments, after step S132 is completed, the display panel may be left to stand at room temperature (20 ℃ to 25 ℃) for 2 minutes to 5 minutes, for example, 3 minutes, in step S133, so that a portion of the liquid filter material flows into the opening of the black matrix to generate a collapsed structure on the surface facing away from the light emitting element layer.
In step S134, the liquid filter material is cured to obtain a filter unit. The curing of the liquid filter material may be a process of developing by exposure. In some embodiments, the exposure is performed with a high dose of light (e.g., light having a wavelength of 405 nanometers at a dose of 400 mj/cm or more) and the development is guaranteed to be residue free and not over developed.
According to the manufacturing method of the display panel, after the liquid filtering material is coated on the surface of one side, away from the light-emitting element layer, of the black matrix, the display panel is placed still, so that a part of the liquid filtering material flows into the opening of the black matrix to generate a collapse structure on the surface, away from the light-emitting element layer. After the liquid filtering material is coated and cured, the collapsed structure is cured to form a diffuse reflection surface, so that the reflection effect of the light adjusting layer on ambient light is reduced, and the appearance of the display panel is improved. In some embodiments, the liquid filter material is exposed to a high dose of light and is guaranteed to be developed without residue and without excessive development, thereby ensuring that the collapsed structure is not flattened by the development process and obtaining a diffuse reflection surface with better diffuse reflection effect.
In some embodiments, after the step S134, the step of forming the optical adjustment layer may further include a step S135 of forming a light-transmitting protection layer on a side of the black matrix away from the light-emitting element layer. Wherein the light-transmitting protective layer covers the black matrix and the plurality of light-filtering units. In some embodiments, the light-transmitting protective layer may be formed by spin-coating a liquid light-transmitting adhesive on a side of the black matrix away from the light-emitting device layer, and then performing photolithography, curing, and the like to obtain the light-transmitting protective layer.
The light-transmitting protective layer can prevent the black matrix and the plurality of light filtering units from being scratched. When the display panel is bendable, the light-transmitting protective layer can prevent the black matrix from being separated from the plurality of light filtering units, and the stability of the light adjusting layer is improved.

Obviously, many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention and the practical application, to thereby enable others skilled in the art to best utilize the invention and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated. The invention is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
