With the development of display technology and the change of market demand, flexible screens have become popular research objects and market trends in recent years. The flexible display panel mainly refers to a flexible Diode light-Emitting display panel (OLED), and since devices can be prepared on a plastic substrate and a plastic module material is used instead of a glass cover plate, good bending characteristics can be obtained, but since the OLED display panel uses a circular polarizer, the panel is large in thickness and high in power consumption; polarizers (POL) can effectively reduce the reflectivity of the panel in bright light, but lose nearly 58% of the light extraction, which greatly increases the lifetime burden for the OLED; on the other hand, the polarizer has large thickness and brittle material, and the bending curvature radius is limited, which is not beneficial to the development of flexible display panel products.
The POL-less technology belongs to the technology of replacing a polarizer with a Color Film (CF) layer, can improve the light-emitting rate from 42% to 60%, and can reduce the thickness of a functional layer from-100 mu m to less than 5 mu m, so that the whole thickness of the display panel is reduced, and the smaller-radius bending is facilitated. Because the color film layer is closer to the display surface of the display panel, the compressive stress generated when the display panel is folded inwards and the tensile stress generated when the display panel is folded outwards are still larger, so that the display panel possibly has the risk of generating cracks, and especially the curled display panel has higher requirements on flexibility.
Therefore, in the existing display panel technology, the color film layer is closer to the display surface of the display panel, and the stress generated when the display panel is bent is larger, so that the display panel is easy to crack, and improvement is urgently needed.

The POL-less technology belongs to the technology of replacing a polarizer with a Color Film (CF) layer, can improve the light-emitting rate from 42% to 60%, and can reduce the thickness of a functional layer from-100 mu m to less than 5 mu m, so that the whole thickness of the display panel is reduced, and the smaller-radius bending is facilitated. Because the color film layer is closer to the display surface of the display panel, the compressive stress generated when the display panel is folded inwards and the tensile stress generated when the display panel is folded outwards are still larger, so that the display panel possibly has the risk of generating cracks, and especially the curled display panel has higher requirements on flexibility. Therefore, the present invention provides a display panel and a display device to solve the above problems.
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a first structure of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. In one aspect, the present invention provides a display panel 1, where the display panel 1 is a flexible display panel, and includes a folding display panel and a rolling display panel. As can be seen from fig. 1, the display panel 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped, and eight outer corners of each sub-display panel in the display panel 1 are all rounded structures, so as to prevent users from being inconveniently used or even scratching fingers when using the display panel. When the display panel 1 is used, if the display surface of the display panel is facing to the eyes of the user, that is, the display surface is parallel to the eyes of the user, the user can obtain the optimal viewing angle of the display surface.
The display surface is a page in the display panel 1 for displaying various real-time image information to a user.
The first direction Z is a direction perpendicular to a plane where the display surface of the display panel 1 is located, and may be herein understood as a thickness direction of the display panel 1; the second direction X is a direction in the display surface of the display panel 1 such that the light emitting substrate 11 extends laterally, which may be understood herein as a longitudinal direction of the display panel 1, and the first direction Z is perpendicular to the second direction X; the third direction Y is a direction in the display surface of the display panel 1 such that the light emitting substrate 11 extends in the longitudinal direction, and may be herein understood as a width direction of the display panel 1, and is perpendicular to both the first direction Z and the second direction X.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a second structure of the display panel according to the embodiment of the present invention, that is, a cross-sectional view of the display panel along a-a. As shown in fig. 2, the display panel 1 includes a display area 1a and a non-display area 1b, the display area 1a includes a sub-pixel unit area, a non-sub-pixel unit area, and a bending area, and the display panel 1 includes: the color resistance layer is positioned on the sub-pixels and comprises a plurality of color resistance blocks, wherein each color resistance block is over against the corresponding sub-pixel; and a black matrix layer 16 including a plurality of first openings 161 and a plurality of second openings 162, wherein the plurality of first openings 161 are located in the sub-pixel unit region, and each of the color resist blocks includes a portion located in the first opening 161; the second openings 162 are located in the non-sub-pixel unit region and in the bending region.
It can be understood that, according to the area division of the display panel 1, the display panel 1 includes a display area 1a and a non-display area 1b, the display area includes a sub-pixel unit area, a non-sub-pixel unit area and a bending area, the bending area may be a dynamic bending area or a static bending area, may be a part of the display area of the display panel, or may be the entire display area of the display panel; according to the division of the film layer structure of the display panel 1, the display panel 1 includes: a plurality of sub-pixels located in the sub-pixel unit region; and the color resistance layer is positioned on the plurality of sub-pixels and comprises a plurality of color resistance blocks, wherein each color resistance block is right opposite to the corresponding sub-pixel. The invention mainly relates to the specific arrangement position of the opening of the black matrix layer 16 in the display area 1a, wherein the black matrix layer 16 is arranged at the periphery of the sub-pixel units connected with the display area of the display panel 1, so that the light leakage of the display panel 1 and the reflection of the metal wire arranged below the black matrix layer 16 are prevented; and between two adjacent sub-pixel unit areas, color mixing between the two adjacent sub-pixel unit areas with different colors is prevented, so that the first opening 161 is an area corresponding to each sub-pixel unit area. Each of the display regions 1a includes a sub-pixel unit region and a non-sub-pixel unit region; the color resistance layer comprises a plurality of color resistance blocks, including but not limited to a first color resistance block, a second color resistance block and a third color resistance block, such as but not limited to a red color resistance block, a green color resistance block and a blue color resistance block; or a red color block, a green color block, a blue color block, a white color block and the like, wherein the color and the type of the color block can be set according to the use requirements of users; it is understood that the thickness of the color resist layer is the same for each color resist block, and the distance between two adjacent color resist blocks is also the same. However, the volume of the color resist layer of each color resist block may be different, for example, since the lifetime of the organic light emitting material of the blue sub-pixel is the shortest, the color of the blue sub-pixel may be unbalanced with the passage of time, and the lifetime of the display panel 1 may be shortened. To solve this problem, it is generally considered to increase the size of the blue sub-pixel to extend the lifetime of the display panel 1. In this case, the area of the blue sub-pixel may be larger than the area of the sub-pixels of the other colors; and because the sub-pixel unit area of each color and the color resistance layer of the corresponding color are correspondingly arranged, the volume of the blue color resistance layer is larger than that of the color resistance layers of other colors.
