Background
OLEDs have many advantages such as being thin and light, low in power consumption, and the like, and are gradually becoming the mainstream display technology at present. The core of the OLED display device is a display panel, fig. 1 is a film structure diagram of an OLED display panel 10, and the OLED display panel 10 includes an anode layer 11, a first common layer (hole injection layer) 12, a second common layer (hole transport layer) 13, a light emitting material layer 14, a third common layer (electron transport layer) 15, a fourth common layer (electron injection layer) 16, and a cathode layer 17.
The working principle of the OLED panel is that under the action of an electric field, holes are transmitted to the light-emitting material layer 14 through the hole injection layer 12 and the hole transport layer 13, electrons are transmitted to the light-emitting material layer 14 through the electron injection layer 16 and the electron transport layer 15, and the holes and the electrons are recombined in the light-emitting material layer 14 to emit light. The hole injection layer, the hole transport layer, the light emitting layer, the electron transport layer and the electron injection layer are formed by evaporation of a whole mask plate and cover the whole pixel region. Because the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer have good conductivity, when a certain light-emitting pixel is controlled to emit light, holes flow from the anode to the cathode and generate a transverse leakage current, and reach the adjacent light-emitting sub-pixels through the hole transport layer and the hole injection layer, so that the light-emitting pixels of other colors emit light, thereby causing impure light emission and reducing the display effect of the display panel, for example, the light-emitting material layer 14 is formed with R, G and B sub-pixels, the anode layer 11 includes an anode layer 11R, an anode layer 11G and an anode layer 11B, the anode layer 11R, the anode layer 11G and the anode layer 11B respectively provide holes with different voltages for the R, G and B sub-pixels, if the holes transversely flow under the corresponding sub-pixels under different voltage values, the original brightness and color of the light emitted by the R, G and B sub-pixels are affected, causing a color shift in the display.
In summary, the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer in the conventional OLED display panel have good conductivity, and when a certain light-emitting pixel is controlled to emit light, holes flow from the anode to the cathode, and meanwhile, a lateral leakage current is generated, and reaches the adjacent light-emitting pixel through the hole transport layer and the hole injection layer, so that the light-emitting pixels of other colors emit light, and thus, light emission impurities are caused, and the display effect of the display panel is reduced, and improvement is needed.
