Detailed Description
Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that: the relative arrangement of the components and steps, the numerical expressions and numerical values set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention unless specifically stated otherwise.
The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the invention, its application, or uses.
Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail but are intended to be part of the specification where appropriate.

The touch layer 304 includes a first electrode layer 305, a second electrode layer 307, and a second insulating filling layer 306 located between the first electrode layer 305 and the second electrode layer 307, wherein the first electrode layer 305 is located on a side of the second insulating filling layer 306 away from the substrate base 301. It can be seen that, when the touch layer 304 is integrated in the display panel 300 in the prior art, two insulating filling layers need to be formed between the first electrode layer 305 and the light emitting element 303, and since the first insulating filling layer 308 needs to form a planarized surface on the side of the light emitting element 303 away from the substrate base 301, the thickness of the first insulating filling layer 308 needs to be greater than that of the light emitting element 303 in the direction perpendicular to the substrate base 301, and therefore, after the touch layer 304 is introduced, the overall thickness of the display panel 300 is difficult to be further reduced.

Fig. 4 is a top view of a touch electrode in the display panel 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, please refer to fig. 4, alternatively, the display panel 100 includes a plurality of first touch units 70 and a plurality of second touch units 80 disposed on the same layer, and the first touch units 70 and the second touch units 80 are insulated from each other; the first touch unit 70 includes a plurality of first touch electrodes 71, and each first touch electrode 71 in the same first touch unit 70 is arranged along a first direction; the second touch unit 80 includes a plurality of second touch electrodes 81, each second touch electrode 81 in the same second touch unit 80 is arranged along a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are crossed;
the touch electrode 51 mentioned in the present application includes the first touch electrode 71 and the second touch electrode 81; in the same first touch unit 70, two first touch electrodes 71 adjacent to each other in the first direction are electrically connected to the same first transparent electrode layer 41 through the first via hole 61; in the same second touch unit 80, two second touch electrodes 81 adjacent to each other in the second direction are electrically connected by a connection portion 82, and the connection portion 82 and the second touch electrode 81 are disposed on the same layer.
Specifically, fig. 4 shows an embodiment of providing a mutual capacitive touch electrode 51 in the display panel 100, optionally, the first touch unit 70 is used as a touch driving unit, the second touch unit 80 is used as a touch sensing unit, and in a touch stage of the display panel 100, when a touch subject touches the display panel 100, a coupling capacitance is formed between the touch subject and the touch sensing unit and the touch driving unit, resulting in a reduction in a coupling capacitance between the touch driving unit and the touch sensing unit, and a touch position can be known according to a change in the coupling capacitance between the touch sensing unit and the touch driving unit. In the present invention, the first touch unit 70 and the second touch unit 80 are disposed on the same layer, and are embodied as a film layer on which the touch electrode 51 is disposed in fig. 3. The first touch unit 70 includes a plurality of first touch electrodes 71 electrically connected to each other, and the second touch unit 80 includes a plurality of second touch electrodes 81 electrically connected to each other. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in the same first touch unit 70, two first touch electrodes 71 adjacent to each other along the first direction are electrically connected to the same first transparent electrode layer 41 through first vias 61; in the same second touch unit 80, two second touch electrodes 81 adjacent to each other in the second direction are electrically connected by a connection portion 82, and the connection portion 82 is disposed on the same layer as the first touch electrode 71 and the second touch electrode 72. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, an orthogonal projection of the connection portion 82 on the plane of the substrate 10 intersects an orthogonal projection of the first transparent electrode layer 41 on the plane of the substrate 10. According to the application, the first transparent electrode layer 41 is used as a bridge-crossing connection layer of the first touch electrode 71 in the first touch unit 70, so that the possibility that the touch function cannot be normally realized due to the electric connection formed between the first touch unit 70 and the second touch unit 80 when the first touch unit 70 and the second touch unit 80 are arranged on the same layer is effectively avoided, and moreover, the touch performance of the display panel 100 can be ensured by arranging the first touch unit 70 and the second touch unit 80 on the same layer, and the production yield of products can be improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, fig. 5 is an AA' cross-sectional view of the display panel 100 in fig. 2, the display panel 100 further includes a second transparent electrode layer 42, the second transparent electrode layer 42 is located on the surface of the array layer 20 away from the substrate 10, and an orthogonal projection of the second transparent electrode layer 42 on the substrate 10 is located between orthogonal projections of two adjacent light-emitting elements 30 on the plane of the substrate 10; the second transparent electrode layer 42 is insulated from the first transparent electrode layer 41.
Referring to fig. 5, in the surface of the array substrate on the side away from the substrate 10, the second transparent electrode layer 42 is introduced to the portion where no light-emitting element 30 is disposed, and from the cross-sectional structure shown in fig. 5, the second transparent electrode layer 42 is located between the orthographic projections of two adjacent light-emitting elements 30 on the plane of the substrate 10, and the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 are disconnected, and the introduction of the second transparent electrode layer 42 does not affect the bridge-crossing connection between the two touch electrodes 51. In addition, the second transparent electrode layer 42 is introduced on the surface of the array layer 20 away from the substrate 10, and the second transparent electrode layer 42 can also play a certain role in protecting the array layer 20.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, with continued reference to fig. 5, the second transparent electrode layer 42 on the surface of the array layer 20 on the side away from the substrate base plate 10 is connected to a fixed potential to form a shielding layer.
Generally, a transistor and a signal trace structure are disposed in the array layer 20 of the display panel 100, and during a display process of the display panel 100, an electrical signal exists on the transistor and the signal trace; during the touch process of the display panel 100, an electrical signal is also present on the touch electrode 51. When the second transparent electrode layer 42 on the surface of the array layer 20 away from the substrate base plate 10 is connected to a fixed potential, the second transparent electrode layer 42 forms a shielding layer, and in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate base plate 10, the shielding layer isolates the touch electrode 51 from the array layer 20, so that mutual interference between the electric signal of the array layer 20 and the electric signal on the touch electrode 51 is avoided, and therefore, the touch reliability of the display panel 100 in the touch stage is improved, and the display reliability of the display panel 100 in the display stage is also improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, with continued reference to fig. 5, the second transparent electrode layer 42 and the first transparent electrode layer 41 are disposed in the same layer and the same material.
Specifically, in the present application, the second transparent electrode layer 42 and the first transparent electrode layer 41 are disposed in the same layer, which means that the two are formed in the same production process at the same time, and do not mean that the two are located at the same height, in the present application, since the surface of the array layer 20 on the side away from the substrate 10 is a planar structure, when the light emitting element 30 is disposed on the surface of the array layer 20 on the side away from the substrate 10, the surface of the light emitting element 30 away from the substrate 10 and the surface of the array layer 20 on the side away from the substrate 10 have a height difference, that is, in the viewing angle shown in fig. 5, the surface of the light emitting element 30 away from the substrate 10 is higher than the surface of the array layer 20 away from the substrate 10, and when the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 are formed in the same production process at the same time, the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 formed in the same layer will be located on the surface of the light emitting element 30 away from Away from the surface of the substrate 10. When the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer are arranged on the same layer and made of the same material, independent manufacturing processes do not need to be respectively introduced into the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42, and the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 can be manufactured and formed simultaneously in the same production process, so that the second transparent electrode layer 42 is introduced as a shielding layer to improve the display reliability and the touch reliability of the display panel 100, the production process of the display panel 100 is facilitated to be simplified, and the production efficiency of the display panel 100 is improved.

The array layer 20 is typically provided with a plurality of thin film transistors, and optionally, gates of the thin film transistors are located on a first metal layer, and sources and drains of the thin film transistors are located on a second metal layer, the second metal layer being located on a side of the first metal layer away from the substrate.

In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the first transparent electrode layer 41 comprises indium tin oxide. Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) is a nano indium Tin metalOxide having excellent conductivity and light transmittance, and optionally, the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 In this application may be formed of In doped with Sn2O3The film has light transmittance of over 90% and excellent conductivity. Therefore, when the first transparent electrode layer 41 with better conductivity is introduced, the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrodes 51 is improved, and the light transmittance of the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the light transmittance of the second transparent electrode layer 42 are both high, so that the overall transmittance of the display panel 100 in the present application is improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, with continued reference to fig. 5, in a direction perpendicular to the base substrate 10, the first transparent electrode layer 41 has a thickness D0,
specifically, the present application sets the thickness of the first transparent electrode layer 41 to be
When the particle size is larger than or equal to 0.1 μm, D0 is smaller than or equal to 0.2 μm. The height of the light emitting element 30 in the direction perpendicular to the base substrate 10 is generally about 10 μm, that is, in the direction perpendicular to the base substrate 10, the thickness of the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 will be much smaller than the height of the light emitting element 30, when the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 are simultaneously formed by the same production process, since the height difference between the surface of the light emitting element 30 far from the substrate base plate 10 and the surface of the array layer 20 far from the substrate base plate 10 is much larger than the thickness of the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42, the first transparent electrode layer 41 on the surface of the light emitting element 30 far from the substrate base plate 10 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 on the surface of the array layer 20 far from the substrate base plate 10 are inevitably disconnected, and no electrical connection is formed, so that it is beneficial to ensure that the introduction of the second transparent electrode layer 42 does not touch the first transparent electrode layer 41 as a bridge connection layer.The reliability of the electrical connection between the electrodes 51 is affected.
In addition, the thickness D0 of the first transparent electrode layer 41 is set to be equal to or greater than
In this case, it is beneficial to avoid the influence on the conductivity of the first transparent electrode layer 41 caused by the over-small thickness of the first transparent electrode layer 41, so as to facilitate the improvement of the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrodes 51 when the first transparent electrode layer 41 is used as the bridge-crossing connection layer. In addition, the thickness D0 of the first transparent electrode layer 41 is set to be equal to or less than
In the meantime, it is favorable to avoid that the light transmittance of the first transparent electrode layer 41 is reduced due to the excessively large thickness of the first transparent electrode layer 41 to affect the light transmittance of the display panel 100, so that the light transmittance when the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the second transparent electrode layer 42 are introduced into the display panel 100 is favorably improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, fig. 6 is a top view of the first transparent electrode layer 41 and the first via 61 in the display panel 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, and the light emitting element is not shown, and in fact, in the top view structure, the light emitting element overlaps the first transparent electrode layer 41. Referring to fig. 6, at least two first via holes 61 respectively expose two ends of the same first transparent electrode layer 41, and two touch electrodes 51 are respectively connected to two ends of the same first transparent electrode layer 41 through the first via holes 61.
Specifically, referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6, the orthographic projections of the two first vias 61 on the plane of the substrate 10 are located in the range defined by the orthographic projection of the same light emitting element 30 on the plane of the substrate 10 and located at two ends of the entire projection of the same light emitting element 30 on the plane of the substrate 10, that is, the first transparent electrode layer 41 on one light emitting element 30 corresponds to the two first vias 61. The two first via holes 61 respectively expose two ends of the same first transparent electrode layer 41, and the two touch electrodes 51 are respectively electrically connected with two ends of the same first transparent electrode layer 41 through the first via holes 61, so that the two touch electrodes 51 are electrically connected. Moreover, when the orthographic projections of the two first vias 61 on the substrate base plate 10 are arranged at the two ends of the whole projection of the same light-emitting element 30 on the plane of the substrate base plate 10, in the process of forming the first vias 61 on the insulating layer 50, the positions of the two first vias 61 can be determined by taking the edges of the two ends of the light-emitting element 30 as references, so that the accuracy of the position arrangement of the first vias 61 is improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of a light emitting element 30 in a display panel 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, please refer to fig. 7, in which the light emitting element 30 includes a light emitting body 33 and a first pole 31 and a second pole 32 electrically connected to the light emitting body 33, the first pole 31 and the second pole 32 are located on a side of the light emitting body 33 facing a substrate; referring to fig. 6, the orthographic projections of the first vias 61 corresponding to the same light emitting device 30 on the substrate 10 are arranged along the length direction of the light emitting device 30.
Specifically, with continued reference to fig. 7, the light emitting element 30 includes a light emitting body 33 and a first electrode 31 and a second electrode 32 electrically connected to the light emitting body 33, and optionally, the light emitting body 33 includes a P-type semiconductor layer electrically connected to the first electrode 31, an N-type semiconductor layer electrically connected to the N-type semiconductor layer, and a light emitting layer (not shown in the figure) located between the P-type semiconductor layer and the N-type semiconductor layer, wherein the P-type semiconductor layer and the N-type semiconductor layer of the light emitting body 33 are driven by the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 to provide a voltage signal to the P-type semiconductor layer and the N-type semiconductor layer, and the P-type semiconductor layer and the N-type semiconductor layer are driven by the voltage signal to cause the light emitting layer. Referring to fig. 6 and 7, alternatively, the orthographic projection of the light emitting element 30 on the plane of the substrate 10 is a rectangular structure, and the first pole 31 and the second pole 32 in the light emitting element 30 are arranged in the length direction of the rectangular structure. Particularly, in the present application, when the orthographic projection of the first and second electrodes on the substrate 10 of the first via hole 61 corresponding to the light emitting element 30 is arranged along the length direction of the light emitting element 30, the space in the length direction of the light emitting element 30 is larger than the space in the width direction, so that when the first via holes 61 are arranged along the length direction of the light emitting element 30, the first via holes 61 corresponding to the same light emitting element 30 have more arrangement spaces in the arrangement direction, and the problem that the size of the first via hole 61 is smaller due to the smaller arrangement space, which affects the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrode 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41, is avoided. Therefore, such a layout mode can provide a larger space for the arrangement of the first via hole 61, thereby being beneficial to increasing the size of the first via hole 61, being beneficial to improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrode 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41, and being beneficial to improving the touch reliability of the touch electrode 51.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, referring to FIG. 6, the minimum aperture of the first via 61 is D1, D1 ≧ 5 μm. Considering that the aperture of the first via 61 may not be fixed, for example, in fig. 5, the aperture of the first via 61 is gradually changed, the aperture of the first via 61 is gradually increased from a side close to the first transparent electrode layer 41 to a side far from the first transparent electrode layer 41, and a portion of the first via 61 corresponding to the minimum aperture is in contact with the first transparent electrode layer 41, and therefore, the size of the minimum aperture is closely related to the reliability of the electrical connection between the electrode layer and the first transparent electrode layer 41.
Specifically, the minimum aperture of the first via hole 61 corresponding to the light emitting element 30 is set to be greater than or equal to 5 μm, which is beneficial to avoiding that the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrode 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41 is weakened due to the undersize aperture of the first via hole 61. In addition, when the orthogonal projection of the light emitting element 30 to the base substrate 10 is square, the length of the individual light emitting element 30 is set to 25 μm or more and the width thereof is set to 10 μm or more. When the minimum aperture of the first via hole 61 is set to be 5 μm or more, the arrangement space of the two first via holes 61 in the width direction of the light emitting element 30 is insufficient, and only the aperture of the first via hole can be compressed; however, the two first via holes 61 have sufficient arrangement space in the length direction of the light emitting element, and therefore, the first via holes are arranged along the length direction of the light emitting element, which not only meets the arrangement requirement of at least two first via holes 61 on the same first transparent electrode layer 41, and is beneficial to realizing reliable electrical connection between the touch electrode 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41, thereby improving the touch reliability of the display panel 100.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, fig. 8 is a BB' cross-sectional view of the display panel 100 shown in fig. 2, please refer to fig. 8, in which the insulating layer 50 further includes a plurality of second vias 62, the second vias 62 penetrate the insulating layer 50 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10 and expose at least a portion of the first transparent electrode layer 41; the orthographic projection of each second via hole 62 corresponding to the same transparent electrode layer on the substrate 10 is located within the orthographic projection range of the same touch electrode 51 on the substrate 10.
Specifically, fig. 8 shows a case where a second via 62 is disposed on the insulating layer 50, where the second via 62 is different from the first via 61 in that an orthogonal projection of the second via 62 on the substrate 10 is located within an orthogonal projection range of the same touch electrode 51 on the substrate 10, and orthogonal projections of two first vias 61 corresponding to the same light emitting element 30 on the substrate 10 are respectively located within orthogonal projection ranges of different touch electrodes 51 on the substrate 10 (see fig. 5), that is, the first vias 61 are used for electrically connecting the two different touch electrodes 51 with the same first transparent electrode layer 41, and the second vias 62 are only used for connecting the same touch electrode 51. Assuming that only the first via 61 is disposed on the insulating layer 50, and the first via 61 is used to electrically connect the two touch electrodes 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41, there is a case that the corresponding position of a part of the light emitting elements 30 does not include a via. When the first via hole 61 is correspondingly disposed above a part of the light emitting elements 30 (on a side away from the substrate 10), and the first via hole 61 is not disposed above a part of the light emitting elements 30, when the display panel 100 emits light, the light transmittance between the light emitting elements 30 disposed with the first via hole 61 and the light emitting elements 30 not disposed with the via holes will be different, and thus the phenomenon of uneven brightness may occur on the display panel 100. In the present application, when the second via hole 62 is introduced above a part of the light emitting element 30, it is beneficial to improve the phenomenon of uneven brightness of the display panel 100 when the light emitting element 30 emits light, so as to be beneficial to improving the display effect of the display panel 100. In addition, the second via hole 62 is introduced above a part of the light emitting element 30, so that when the part of the touch electrode 51 is electrically connected to the first transparent electrode layer 41 through the second via hole 62, the touch electrode 51 is connected to the first transparent electrode layer 41 in parallel, which is favorable for reducing the impedance of the touch electrode 51 and improving the touch sensitivity of the touch electrode 51.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the insulating layer 50 further includes a plurality of third vias 63, the third vias 63 penetrating the insulating layer 50 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate base plate 10 and exposing at least a portion of the first transparent electrode layer 41; the orthographic projection of each third via 63 on the substrate base 10 does not overlap the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 51 on the substrate base 10.
Specifically, fig. 9 is a CC' cross-sectional view of the display panel 100 in fig. 2, in this embodiment, a third via 63 is introduced into the insulating layer 50, and the difference between the third via 63 and the first via 61 and the second via 62 is that an orthographic projection of the third via 63 on the substrate 10 does not overlap with the touch electrode 51, and an orthographic projection of the first via 61 and the orthographic projection of the second via 62 on the substrate 10 overlap. Considering that when the touch electrode 51 is introduced on the display panel 100, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 51 on the substrate 10 does not necessarily cover the orthographic projection of all the light-emitting elements 30 on the substrate 10, that is, when a part of the light-emitting elements 30 is not provided with the touch electrode 51, for example, the light-emitting elements 30 shown in fig. 9 are not provided with the touch electrode, when no via hole is provided above the part of the light-emitting elements 30, the luminance displayed on the display panel 100 is different from that displayed on the display panel 100 when the part of the light-emitting elements 30 emit light and the light-emitting elements 30 provided with the via holes emit light, and therefore, the display panel 100 may have uneven display luminance, and therefore, when the third via hole 63 is also introduced above the part of the light-emitting elements 30, the present application is also beneficial to improving the uneven luminance of the display panel 100 when the light-emitting elements 30 emit light, thereby being beneficial to improving the display effect of the display panel 100.

The insulating layer 50 includes a plurality of auxiliary vias 60, the auxiliary vias 60 include the first via 61, the second via 62, and the third via 63, and the auxiliary vias are disposed on the surfaces of the first transparent electrode layers 41 corresponding to the light emitting elements 30, which are away from the substrate board 10.
Specifically, the first via hole 61, the second via hole 62, and the third via hole 63 are collectively referred to as auxiliary via holes, and when the auxiliary via holes 60 are disposed on the sides of the first transparent electrode layer 41 corresponding to each light emitting element 30 away from the substrate 10, light emitted by each light emitting element 30 passes through the auxiliary via holes 60 when the light emitting element 30 emits light, so that the luminance of the display panel 100 in the region corresponding to each light emitting element 30 is balanced, and the uniformity of the display luminance of the display panel 100 is improved.

Specifically, when the same number of auxiliary via holes 60 are disposed above each light emitting element 30, corresponding to fig. 10, each light emitting element 30 corresponds to two auxiliary via holes, and light emitted by each light emitting element 30 passes through the same number of auxiliary via holes and then is emitted, so that the luminance of the display panel 100 in the region corresponding to each light emitting element 30 is further balanced, and further, the uniformity of the display luminance of the display panel 100 is further improved, and the display effect of the display panel 100 is improved.
It should be noted that, the embodiment shown in fig. 10 shows a case where two auxiliary vias are provided for each light emitting element 30, and two auxiliary vias corresponding to the same light emitting element 30 are respectively provided at two ends of the light emitting element 30 along the length direction thereof, in some other embodiments of the present application, the number of the auxiliary vias corresponding to the same light emitting element 30 may also be 3 or more, which is not specifically limited in the present application. When more than two first via holes 61 are formed above the same light emitting element 30, the reliability of the electrical connection between the touch electrode 51 and the same first transparent electrode layer is improved; when more than two second via holes 62 are disposed above the same light emitting element 30, the impedance of the touch electrode is further reduced, and the touch sensitivity of the touch electrode is improved.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, with continued reference to fig. 10, the shape and area of the orthographic projection of the auxiliary via 60 on the substrate base plate 10 are the same. The quantity, the shape, the area of the supplementary via hole 60 that sets up above the light emitting component 30 all set up to be the same for the rete structure that is located each light emitting component 30 top is the same, thereby be favorable to avoiding the rete differentiation design of light emitting component 30 top and lead to the display panel to appear showing the inhomogeneous phenomenon of luminance in different light emitting component 30 corresponding regions, therefore be favorable to further promoting display panel's the demonstration luminance homogeneity, promote display panel's display effect.
In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting element 30 is a Micro LED, a Mini LED or a composite LED. The composite type LED in the present application refers to a composite structure of at least two LEDs, and the LEDs herein may be Micro LEDs or Mini LEDs, for example. When the composite LED is disposed on the array layer 20, one side of each LED located in the same composite LED away from the array layer 20 is coplanar, so that the area of the surface of the composite LED away from the array layer 20 is larger than that of a single LED, and therefore, an enough space is provided above the composite LED to dispose the auxiliary via hole, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the two touch electrodes 51 and the first transparent electrode layer 41, and is also beneficial to reducing the impedance of the touch electrodes 51, and improving the touch sensitivity of the touch electrodes 51. In addition, the Micro LED and the Mini LED have the characteristics of high display brightness, good light emitting efficiency and low power consumption, so when the Micro LED and the Mini LED are applied to the display panel 100, the display brightness and the light emitting efficiency of the display panel 100 are improved, and the power consumption of the display panel 100 is reduced.
