Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting thereof. It should be further noted that, for convenience of description, only some, but not all of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
Meanwhile, the description of the drawings and the embodiments is illustrative and not restrictive. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout the specification. In addition, the thickness of some layers, films, panels, regions, etc. may be exaggerated in the drawings for understanding and ease of description. It will also be understood that when an element such as a layer, film, region or substrate is referred to as being "on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements may also be present. In addition, "on … …" refers to positioning an element on or under another element, but does not in essence refer to positioning on the upper side of another element according to the direction of gravity. For ease of understanding, the drawings of the present invention depict elements on the upper side of another element.
In addition, unless explicitly described to the contrary, the word "comprise" and variations such as "comprises" or "comprising" will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated element but not the exclusion of any other element.
It should also be noted that references to "and/or" in embodiments of the present invention are intended to encompass any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. Various components are described in the embodiments of the present invention using "first", "second", "third", etc., but these components should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another element. Also, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the ()" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
While an embodiment may be practiced differently, the specific process sequence may be performed differently than as described. For example, two consecutively described processes may be performed at substantially the same time or in an order reverse to the order described.
In order to realize a narrow frame display, the conventional display panel typically has an IC portion bent to the back of the display panel. Fig. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a conventional display panel, and as shown in fig. 1, a trace 1 of a touch module is overlapped with a metal trace 2 in an array through a via hole in a non-display area NAA. In actual production, the via hole and the display area AA are formed in the same process, and the problem of over etching or etching residues of the display area AA exists due to different etching depth requirements, so that poor contact of the touch module is caused; and because of the existence of the through holes, the surface of the metal wiring 2 is uneven, uneven Al holes are easy to appear, and the product yield is affected. In order to solve the above problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a display panel and a display device, which can avoid the problem of poor contact of a touch module and improve the product yield.
Next, the structure of the display panel and its technical effects are described in detail.
In addition, the following embodiments are exemplified by the display panel being rectangular, and in practical applications, the display panel may be regular or irregular, such as circular, polygonal, etc., and the present invention is not limited thereto. Meanwhile, in order to describe the wiring in the display panel more clearly, the size of each structure in the display panel is correspondingly adjusted in the following drawings.
It should be further noted that, in the following drawings, the ellipses "…" included in the embodiments of the present invention refer to that the flexible display panel extends in the left-right direction or the up-down direction, and omitted portions may include other structures, which are not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the invention. The display panel includes: the substrate 10, the substrate 10 includes a display area AA and a non-display area NAA surrounding the display area AA, the non-display area NAA includes an outgoing line area NAA 1, a bending area NAA 2 and an extended wiring area NAA 3 in this order along the direction in which the display area AA points to the non-display area NAA; an inorganic layer 20 disposed on the substrate 10; a first metal layer 30 disposed on the inorganic layer 20; a first organic layer 40 disposed on the first metal layer 30; a second metal layer 50 disposed on the first organic layer 40; a second organic layer 60 disposed on the second metal layer 50.
Referring to fig. 2, the first organic layer 40, the second metal layer 50, and the second organic layer 60 completely cover the wire outlet area NAA 1, the inflection area NAA 2, and the extended wiring area NAA 3.
Corresponding to the display area AA, the display panel further includes: the thin film transistor disposed on the substrate 10, for example, a thin film transistor having a top gate structure, specifically, the thin film transistor includes: a buffer layer 101 on the substrate 10, an active layer 102 on the buffer layer 101, a gate insulating layer 103 on the active layer 102, a gate 104 on the gate insulating layer 103, an interlayer insulating layer 105 on the gate 104, a source 106 and a drain 107 on the interlayer insulating layer 105; a passivation layer 108 on the source electrode 106 and the drain electrode 107; the source electrode 106 and the drain electrode 107 may be located on the same layer and obtained through a single patterning process, and thus, the source electrode 106 and the drain electrode 107 may also be referred to as a source-drain metal layer.
In particular, the substrate 10 may be flexible and thus stretchable, foldable, bendable or rollable, such that the display panel may be stretchable, foldable, bendable or rollable. The substrate 10 may be formed of any suitable insulating material having flexibility. The substrate 10 may serve to block oxygen and moisture, prevent diffusion of moisture or impurities, and provide a flat surface on the upper surface of the substrate 10.
For example, the substrate 10 may be formed of a polymer material such as Polyimide (PI), polycarbonate (PC), polyethersulfone (PES), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyarylate (PAR), or Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP), and the like, and may be transparent, translucent, or opaque.
