For a better understanding of the technical solutions and effects of the present application, specific embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, a cross-sectional structure diagram of a display panel 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, where the display panel 100 includes: a substrate 110, a light emitting device layer, a first optical structure layer 130, and a second optical structure layer 140. The light emitting device layer is positioned at one side of the substrate 110, and the light emitting device layer includes at least one light emitting device 120. The light emitting device 120 may include a plurality of light emitting devices capable of emitting light of different colors. For example, the light emitting device 120 may include a red light emitting device capable of emitting red light, a green light emitting device capable of emitting green light, and a blue light emitting device capable of emitting blue light. For example, the embodiment of the invention may select an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) to prepare each of the Light Emitting devices. Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present invention, the Light Emitting unit may be a Micro Light Emitting Diode (Micro-LED) or a Quantum dot Light Emitting Diode (Quantum Light Emitting Diode (QLED)).
The first optical structure layer 130 is located on a side of the light emitting device layer away from the substrate 110, that is, the first optical structure layer 130 is located above the light emitting device layer, the first optical structure layer 130 includes at least one first opening 131, and a projection of the light emitting device 120 on the first optical structure layer 130 is located in the first opening 131, that is, the first opening 131 exposes the light emitting device 120 corresponding to the first opening 131. The second optical structure layer 140 is located on a side surface of the first optical structure layer 130 away from the substrate, that is, the second optical structure layer 140 is above the first optical structure layer 130, the second optical structure layer 140 is in contact with the first optical structure layer 130, and the second optical structure layer 140 covers the first optical structure layer 130, optionally, the second optical structure layer 140 may fill the first opening 131.
In the embodiment of the present application, the refractive index of the second optical structure layer 140 is greater than that of the first optical structure layer 130, so that the light emitted from the light emitting device 120 continues to exit through the second optical structure layer 140 after being refracted by the first optical structure layer 130. The refractive index of the first optical structure layer 130 may range from 1.3 to 1.6, and the refractive index of the second optical structure layer 140 may range from 1.6 to 1.8. The refractive index difference between the first optical structure layer 130 and the second optical structure layer 140 may be 0.3-0.4, if the refractive index of the first optical structure layer 130 is too low, the refractive index difference between the first optical structure layer 130 and the film layer covered by the first optical structure layer 130 is too large, which causes too high reflection loss of the light emitted from the light emitting device 120 at the interface where the first optical structure layer 130 and the lower film layer are in contact, and is not favorable for light emission, and if the refractive index of the second optical structure layer 140 is too high, when the second optical structure layer 140 emits the light, the reflection loss at the exit interface of the second optical structure layer 140 is too high, and is not favorable for light emission. The material of the second optical structure layer 140 may be acrylic, for example, an epoxy-based material mixed with metal oxide nanoparticles having a high refractive index, and the metal oxide nanoparticles may be zirconium oxide (ZrO) 2 ) Or titanium oxide (TiO) 2 )。
In the embodiment of the present application, the sidewall of the first opening 131 and the upper surface of the first opening 131 may form a bevel, and referring to the sectional structure diagram of the display panel shown in fig. 1, the sectional view of the first opening 131 may be a trapezoid. The sidewalls of the first opening 131 and the upper surface of the first opening 131 may also be rounded based on practical process limitations.
In an embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 1, when the sidewall of the first opening 131 and the upper surface of the first opening 131 form a bevel, an included angle formed by the sidewall of the first opening 131 near the central region of the first opening 131 and the plane of the substrate 110 is a bevel angle θ, and the bevel angle θ may range from 40 ° to 80 °. The slope angles described below in the embodiments of the present application are all described by forming a bevel angle between the sidewall of the first opening 131 and the upper surface of the first opening 131, that is, the slope angles in the embodiments of the present application include an included angle formed between the sidewall of the first opening 131 near the central region of the first opening 131 and the plane of the substrate 110 when the sidewall of the first opening 131 and the upper surface of the first opening 131 form a bevel angle.
In practical applications, the display panel 100 may further include a pixel defining layer 150, as shown in fig. 1, 4, 5 and 6, where fig. 4 is a top view of the pixel defining layer 150 provided in this embodiment of the application, fig. 5 and 6 are partial enlarged views of the pixel defining layer 150, a cross-sectional structure diagram of the display panel shown in fig. 1 may be obtained along an AA direction shown in fig. 4, 5 or 6, and a rectangle shown in fig. 5 or 6 and having a size of C4 represents a projection of a line when a sidewall of the first opening 131 intersects with an upper surface of the first opening 131 on the pixel defining layer 150. The pixel defining layer 150 has a plurality of pixel openings 151, and the size of the pixel openings 151 may be C1, and the size of the pixel openings 151 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application and may be designed according to actual situations. The pixel opening 151 exposes the light emitting devices 120 corresponding to the pixel opening 151, i.e., the light emitting devices 120 and the pixel opening 151 may correspond one to one, and the light emitting devices 120 may include a plurality of colors, e.g., a red light emitting device, a green light emitting device, and a blue light emitting device.
In practical applications, the shape of the first opening 131 may vary according to the shape of the pixel opening 151. As a possible implementation manner, the projections of the first opening 131 and the pixel opening 151 on the substrate coincide, and referring to fig. 1, the sizes of the pixel opening 151 and the first opening 131 may be C1, and based on the practical process limit, the projection distances of the first opening 131 and the pixel opening 151 on the substrate are within 0.5 μm, which may be considered as projection coincidence.
As an example, the pixel opening 151 may be rectangular, the first opening 131 may also be rectangular, and the projections of the first opening 131 and the pixel opening 151 on the substrate coincide. The pixel opening 151 and the first opening 131 may not be completely rectangular, but may be rounded rectangular, depending on practical process limitations.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the sidewall of the first opening 131 includes at least one protrusion 1311 and/or one depression 1312, and the protrusion 1311 or the depression 1312 is varied in a concave-convex manner along a first direction perpendicular to the sidewall of the first opening 131 and arranged along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and parallel to the plane of the substrate 110.
Referring to fig. 2 and 5, the first direction is perpendicular to the sidewall of the first opening 131, and when the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the protrusion 1311, as can be seen from fig. 5, the size of the first opening 131 is C2, which is smaller than the size C1 of the pixel opening 151.
Referring to fig. 3 and 5, when the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the recess 1312, as shown in fig. 5, the first opening 131 has a size C3 greater than a size C1 of the pixel opening 151.
That is, when the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the protrusion 1311, the projection of the first opening 131 on the substrate 110 is smaller than when the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the recess 1312, i.e., the opening size of the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the protrusion 1311 is smaller than that of the sidewall of the first opening 131 is the recess 1312.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8, fig. 7 is a schematic view of a first opening 131 under an electron microscope according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and fig. 8 is a schematic view of a sidewall of the first opening 131 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. It can be seen from fig. 8 that the present embodiment provides a rounded rectangular shape of the first opening 131, and the sidewall of the first opening 131 includes at least one protrusion 1311 and a depression 1312. A cross-sectional view of the first opening 131 in the BB direction in fig. 8 is a cross-sectional shape of a sidewall of the first opening 131 in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 8, the first opening 131 has a rounded rectangular shape, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to a sidewall of the first opening 131, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and parallel to a plane of the substrate, i.e. the second direction is a direction of any edge of the first opening 131. When the sidewalls of the first opening 131 are the protruding portions 1311 or the recessed portions 1312, the protruding portions 1311 or the recessed portions 1312 are arranged along the second direction, that is, the sidewalls of any side of the first opening 131 include at least one protruding portion 1311 or one recessed portion 1312, so as to increase the light emitting area when the light exits from the optical structure layer, increase the light emitting brightness of the light, and improve the light emitting effect of the display panel.
In an embodiment of the present application, the protrusion 1311 or the recess 1312 included in the sidewall of the first opening 131 may extend along a third direction, which is perpendicular to the second direction and parallel to the plane of the substrate 110. Referring to fig. 1, the third direction is a direction perpendicular to one side of the first opening 131, and the third direction is parallel to the substrate 110. The protrusion 1311 or the recess 1312 extends in the third direction, which means that the protrusion 1311 or the recess 1312 penetrates through the entire sidewall of the first opening 131 in the third direction, so that the slope angle of each protrusion 1311 is the same or the slope angle of each recess 1312 is the same, thereby ensuring the uniformity of light emission.
Referring to fig. 9 and 10, fig. 9 is a top view of the sidewall of the first opening 131 provided in fig. 8 along the CC direction, and fig. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the sidewall of the first opening 131 provided in fig. 8 along the CC direction, where an included angle formed after the CC direction intersects with the substrate 110 is θ, that is, the CC direction is parallel to the sidewall of the first opening 131. As can be seen from fig. 9, the sidewall of the first opening 131 may include a plurality of protrusions 1311 and recesses 1312 distributed periodically, that is, the protrusions 1311 and the recesses 1312 are repeatedly distributed on the sidewall of the first opening 131, so as to improve uniformity of the outgoing light in all directions. Meanwhile, the protrusion 1311 and the recess 1312 are disposed on the side wall of the first opening 131, so that the surface area of the side wall of the first opening 131 can be increased, the light emitting area of light emitted from the optical structure layer can be increased, the light emitting brightness of light can be increased, and the light emitting effect of the display panel can be improved.
As a possible implementation manner, referring to fig. 9 and 10, the recesses 1312 are located between two adjacent protrusions 1311, and the protrusions 1311 are located between two adjacent recesses 1312, that is, the protrusions 1311 and the recesses 1312 are alternately distributed on the sidewalls of the first opening 131.
In practical applications, when the light emitting area is increased by the recesses 1312 and the protrusions 1311, the projections of the recesses 1312 and the protrusions 1311 on the substrate 110 may not coincide with the projections of the pixel openings 151 on the substrate 110. The projection of the protrusion 1311 on the substrate 110 may fall within the pixel opening 151, i.e. the projection of the protrusion 1311 on the substrate 110 may be close to the central area of the projection of the pixel opening 151 on the substrate; a projection of the recess 1312 on the substrate 110 may be located outside the pixel opening 151, i.e., the projection of the recess 1312 on the substrate 110 may be far from a central region of the projection of the pixel opening 151 on the substrate. The closer the projection of the recess 1312 or the protrusion 1311 on the substrate 110 and the projection of the pixel opening 151 on the substrate 110 are, the greater the luminance improvement at the front viewing angle.
As an example, the projection of the protrusion 1311 on the substrate 110 may fall within the pixel opening 151 by 3 micrometers, and as shown with reference to fig. 2, the size of the first opening 131 is smaller than the size of the pixel opening 151.
As another example, the projection of the recess 1312 on the substrate 110 may be located 2 microns outside the pixel opening 151, and referring to fig. 3, the size of the first opening 131 is larger than that of the pixel opening 151.
In practical applications, when the sidewall of the first opening 131 includes a plurality of periodically distributed protrusions 1311 and recesses 1312, the slope angle of the protrusions 1311 may be greater than that of the recesses 1312. For example, the slope angles of the protrusion 1311 and the depression 1312 may range from 40 ° to 60 °, with the slope angle of the protrusion 1311 being greater than the slope angle of the depression 1312. For another example, the slope angles of the protrusion 1311 and the depression 1312 may range from 60 ° to 80 °, and the slope angle of the protrusion 1311 is greater than the slope angle of the depression 1312.
In the embodiment of the present application, the sidewall of the first opening 131 may include a plurality of protruding portions 1311 or a plurality of recessed portions 1312, that is, the sidewall of the first opening 131 may include only the plurality of protruding portions 1311, or only the plurality of recessed portions 1312, so as to increase the light output area and improve the light output brightness. The protrusions 1311 and the recesses 1312 are distributed at equal intervals, so that light emitted in all directions can be uniform. In an embodiment of the present application, as shown with reference to fig. 10 to 12, along the first plane, a cross section of a sidewall of the first opening 131 may be stepped, and the step may be a protrusion 1311 or a recess 1312. The first plane is perpendicular to the substrate 110 and the second direction, i.e. the first plane is parallel to the third direction. The first plane intersects at least one of the protrusions 1311 or the depressions 1312. That is, the protrusions 1311 or the recesses 1312 may be provided at a plurality of stages on the sidewall of the first opening 131 so as to further increase the surface area of the sidewall of the first opening 131.
In practical applications, the slope angles of the protruding portions 1311 or the recessed portions 1312 located at different step positions of the sidewalls of the first opening 131 are different in a direction away from the substrate 110. As a possible implementation manner, the slope angle of the protrusion 1311 or the recess 1312 located at different step positions of the sidewall of the first opening 131 gradually increases in a direction away from the substrate 110, that is, θ 2 Greater than theta 1 So that the protrusion 1311 or the recess 1312 in the direction away from the substrate improves the light emitting effect and increases the light emitting brightness.
As an example, referring to a cross-sectional structure view of the display panel shown in fig. 11, the sidewall of the first opening 131 has two steps: a first step 1301 and a second step 1302, wherein the step close to the substrate 110 is the first step 1301, and the step far from the substrate 110 is the second step 1302. The first step 1301 may include a plurality of protrusions 1311 or a plurality of recesses 1312, and an inclination angle of the plurality of protrusions 1311 or the plurality of recesses 1312 may range from 40 ° to 60 °, and mainly refracts light emitted from the light emitting device, and the refraction range is close to the pixel opening 151. The second step 1302 may also include a plurality of protrusions 1311 or a plurality of recesses 1312, and the slope angle of the plurality of protrusions 1311 or the plurality of recesses 1312 may range from 60 ° to 80 °, and mainly reflects light emitted from the light emitting device, and the reflective range is far away from the pixel opening 151.
The present embodiment does not specifically define the shape of the sidewall of the first opening 131 that the first step 1301 and the second step 1302 have as the protrusion 1311 or the depression 1312.
As an example, referring to a cross-sectional structure view of the display panel shown in fig. 12, the first step 1301 may include a plurality of protrusions 1311, and the second step 1302 may include a plurality of recesses 1312.
As still another example, referring to a cross-sectional structure diagram of the display panel shown in fig. 13, the first step 1301 may include a plurality of recesses 1312, and the second step 1302 may also include a plurality of recesses 1312.
In an embodiment of the present application, a projection of the first opening 131 on the substrate 110 may be a rectangle, and the rectangle includes a first side and a second side, where a size of the first side is larger than a size of the second side, that is, the first side is a long side and the second side is a short side. The long and short sides of the first opening 131 may include different numbers of the protrusions 1311 and the plurality of the depressions 1312.
As an example, the total number of protrusions 1311 and depressions 1312 corresponding to the first edge is Y 1 The number of the protrusions 1311 and the depressions 1312 corresponding to the second side is Y 2 ,Y 2 >Y 1 That is, the total number of the convex portions 1311 and the concave portions 1312 on the long side is less than the total number of the convex portions 1311 and the concave portions 1312 on the short side, so that the light emitted from each side of the first opening 131 is ensured to be uniform, and the problem of color shift of different viewing angles caused by different sizes of the sides of the first opening can be solved.
In an embodiment of the present application, the light emitting device 120 may include light emitting sub-devices of a plurality of colors to meet the display requirements of the display panel. The light emitting device layer may include a first color light emitting device having a center wavelength λ 1, a second color light emitting device having a center wavelength λ 2, and a third color light emitting device having a center wavelength λ 3, wherein λ 1 > λ 2 > λ 3. For example, the first color light emitting device may be a red light emitting device, the second color light emitting device may be a green light emitting device, and the third color light emitting device may be a blue light emitting device. Each of the light emitting devices may correspond to one of the pixel opening 151 and the first opening 131, i.e., the first opening 131 may include a first sub-opening corresponding to a first color light emitting device, a second sub-opening corresponding to a second color light emitting device, and a third sub-opening corresponding to a third color light emitting device.
In practical applications, since the light emitting devices of different colors have different light emitting efficiencies, in order to improve the light emitting effect of the light emitting device with lower light emitting efficiency, a greater number of the protruding portions 1311 and the recessed portions 1312 may be disposed on the sidewall of the first opening 131 corresponding to the light emitting device with lower light emitting efficiency. For example, since the efficiency of the blue light emitting device is low, a greater number of the protrusions 1311 and the depressions 1312 may be provided on the first openings 131 corresponding to the blue light emitting device.
As a possible implementation, the number of the convex portions and the concave portions in the first sub-opening is X 1 The number of the convex parts and the concave parts in the second sub-opening is X 2 The number of the convex parts and the concave parts in the third sub-opening is X 3 Wherein X is 3 >X 2 >X 1 . That is, the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting device of the third color corresponding to the third sub-opening is the lowest, and thus the number of the convex portions and the concave portions in the third sub-opening is the largest.
In an embodiment of the present application, as shown with reference to fig. 1, the display panel 100 may further include an encapsulation layer 160, which may be positioned between the light emitting device layer and the first optical structure layer 130, and which covers the light emitting device layer so as to protect the plurality of light emitting devices 120 included in the light emitting device layer.
