Fig. 14 is a schematic top view of another display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 15 is a schematic cross-sectional view along the direction CC' in fig. 14. Referring to fig. 14 and 15, the display panel further includes a microlens array, which is located on a side of the plurality of pixel electrodes 30 away from the substrate 10. The microlens array includes a plurality of microlenses 70 arranged in rows and columns. In the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of microlenses 70 are further disposed on the side of the pixel electrode 30 away from the substrate 10, so that the light emitted from the pixel unit 20 passes through the microlenses 70, and the microlenses 70 increase the light extraction efficiency of the display panel.
It will be appreciated that if the pixel arrangement in the prior art is adopted, the sub-pixels (including the pixel electrodes) are designed to be elongated, so that on one hand, the difference in length between the pixel electrodes along the first direction and the second direction is relatively large, which is not beneficial to increasing the light extraction efficiency through the micro-lenses. On the other hand, the design of the bottom surface of the microlens into a long strip shape also presents great process difficulties. Therefore, the array substrate and the display panel provided by the embodiment of the invention are convenient for improving the brightness of the pixel unit by the micro lens array.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, the microlenses 70 are circular in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10. The microlens is hemispherical in shape. Hemispherical microlens 70 is a preferred embodiment because hemispherical microlens 70 has the same extraction efficiency for light within 360 ° of azimuth, and the brightness gain of pixel cell 20 is the same for each azimuth. In other embodiments, the microlenses 70 may also be rectangular, hexagonal, octagonal, or the like in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, one microlens 70 is provided for each pixel unit 20. In the embodiment of the present invention, one microlens 70 is provided for each pixel unit 20, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of all the pixel units 20. Further, each pixel unit 20 is provided with one microlens 70, so that the height of the microlens 70 can be reduced, the manufacturing difficulty of the microlens 70 can be reduced, and the thickness of the display panel can be reduced. In other embodiments, each microlens 70 may also cover at least two pixel cells 20, as the invention is not limited in this regard.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, the microlens 70 overlaps the second pixel electrode 32 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, being staggered from the first pixel electrode 31. In the embodiment of the present invention, the micro lens 70 only overlaps the pixel electrode 30 located in the pixel unit 20, and does not overlap the pixel electrode 30 located at the edge of the pixel unit 20, thereby reducing the difficulty of disposing the micro lens 70.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, in the second pixel unit 22, the third pixel electrode 33 at least partially surrounds the second pixel electrode 32. In a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, the microlens 70 overlaps the second pixel electrode 32, the microlens 70 is staggered with respect to the first pixel electrode 31, and the microlens 70 is staggered with respect to the third pixel electrode 33.
In other embodiments, if the first pixel electrode 31 at least partially surrounds the third pixel electrode 33 in the second pixel unit 22, then: in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, the microlens 70 overlaps the second pixel electrode 32, the microlens 70 overlaps the third pixel electrode 33, and the microlens 70 is staggered from the first pixel electrode 31.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, the area of the first pixel electrode 31 is larger than the area of the second pixel electrode 32 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10. Since the microlens 70 overlaps the second pixel electrode 32 in the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, is staggered with the first pixel electrode 31, and the light extraction efficiency of the center of the pixel unit 20 is greater than that of the edge of the pixel unit 20, in the embodiment of the present invention, the area of the first pixel electrode 31 is increased, and the light emission brightness of the first pixel electrode 31 is increased, so that the light emission brightness of the center of the pixel unit 20 is consistent with the light emission brightness of the edge of the pixel unit 20.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, in the second pixel unit 22, the third pixel electrode 33 at least partially surrounds the second pixel electrode 32, and the area of the third pixel electrode 33 is larger than the area of the second pixel electrode 32 in the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10.
In other embodiments, if the first pixel electrode 31 at least partially surrounds the third pixel electrode 33 in the second pixel unit 22, then: the area of the first pixel electrode 31 is larger than the area of the third pixel electrode 33 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, the display panel further includes a cover plate 80, and the microlens array is positioned between the cover plate 80 and the plurality of pixel electrodes 30. In the embodiment of the present invention, the microlens array is disposed at one side of the cover plate 80 adjacent to the plurality of pixel electrodes 30. On the one hand, the cover plate 80 is not arranged between the micro lens array and the pixel electrode 30, the distance between the micro lens array and the pixel electrode 30 is relatively short, and the alignment error between the micro lens array and the pixel electrode 30 is reduced. On the other hand, the microlens array is disposed inside the cover plate 80, and the cover plate 80 can protect the microlens array from external damage.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 14 and 15, the microlens array is located between the color resist 60 and the cover plate 80. An organic layer may be further disposed between the color resist 60 and the microlens array, and an optical adhesive layer may be further disposed between the microlens array and the cover plate 80.
Fig. 16 is a schematic top view of another display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 16, a microlens 70 is disposed on each pixel unit 20, and the microlens 70 covers all the pixel electrodes 30 in the pixel unit 20. So that the light-emitting luminance at the center of the pixel unit 20 coincides with the light-emitting luminance at the edge of the pixel unit 20.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 16, in the first pixel unit 21, the microlens 70 covers the first pixel electrode 31 and the second pixel electrode 32. In the second pixel unit 22, the microlens 70 covers the second pixel electrode 32 and the third pixel electrode 33.
