Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a first display area structure of a display panel provided in a first embodiment of the present application, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a second display area structure of a display panel provided in the first embodiment of the present application, and in combination with fig. 1 to fig. 3, a display panel 100 provided in the first embodiment of the present application includes: a substrate 10, an anode layer 20, a pixel defining layer 30, a light emitting functional layer 50, a barrier layer 40, and a cathode layer 60.
In this embodiment, the substrate 10 includes, for example, a substrate base and a driving circuit layer disposed on the substrate base. The substrate base plate can be a flexible base plate or a rigid base plate, and the material of the substrate base plate comprises one or more of glass, plastics, silicon dioxide, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polylactic acid, polyethylene terephthalate, polyimide or polyurethane; a pixel driving circuit for driving the light emitting function layer 50 to emit light is formed in the driving circuit layer, and the pixel driving circuit includes a plurality of Thin Film Transistors (TFTs), which may be of an amorphous silicon TFT, a low temperature polysilicon TFT, an oxide semiconductor TFT, or an organic TFT.
In this embodiment, the anode layer 20 is stacked on the substrate 10, and is formed on the entire surface of the substrate 10. However, the arrangement of the anode layer 20 is not limited in the present application, and in other embodiments of the present application, the anode layer may also adopt a patterned arrangement, for example, the patterned anode layer includes a plurality of anode units (not shown in the drawings) arranged at intervals.
In this embodiment, the pixel defining layer 30 is disposed on the substrate 10. Specifically, the pixel defining layer 30 is stacked on the anode layer 20 and includes a plurality of pixel defining openings arranged at intervals, light emitting units are disposed in each pixel defining opening, and the pixel defining layer 30 can arrange the light emitting units in each pixel defining opening at intervals to avoid light mixing. The pixel defining layer 30 includes a plurality of first pixel defining openings 301 spaced apart from each other in the first display region 101, corresponding to the first display region 101; in correspondence with the second display region 102, the pixel defining layer 30 further includes a plurality of second pixel defining openings 302 disposed at intervals in the second display region 102.
In this embodiment, the light emitting function layer 50 is disposed on the substrate 10. Specifically, the light-emitting functional layer 50 includes a plurality of light-emitting units, and the light-emitting units are correspondingly disposed in the pixel-defining openings, and implement the display function of the display panel 100 by the light-emitting units emitting light. Corresponding to the first display region 101, the light emitting unit includes a first light emitting unit 501 disposed in each of the first pixel defining openings 301; corresponding to the second display region 102, the light emitting unit further includes a second light emitting unit 502 disposed in each of the second pixel defining openings 302.
In this embodiment, the barrier layer 40 is disposed on the substrate 10. Specifically, the blocking layer 40 includes a blocking unit 401 disposed in at least one of the first pixel defining openings 301, the blocking unit 401 and the first light emitting unit 501 are both located at the bottom of the first pixel defining opening 301, the blocking unit 401 and the first light emitting unit 501 are disposed adjacent to each other, and the light transmittance of the blocking unit 401 is higher than that of the first light emitting unit 501. Preferably, a perpendicular projection of the blocking unit 401 on the substrate 10 does not overlap a perpendicular projection of the first light emitting unit 501 on the substrate 10. Since both the first light-emitting unit 501 and the blocking unit 401 with higher transmittance are disposed in at least one of the first pixel defining openings 301, when at least a portion of external environment light is emitted from one side of the display panel 100 to the optical element on the other side of the display panel 100, the external environment light can be emitted to the optical element through the blocking unit 401 with higher transmittance while avoiding the first light-emitting unit 501 with lower transmittance, so as to effectively improve the transmittance of the first display area 101, increase the light collection amount of the optical element, and effectively enhance the light sensing function of the optical element. Moreover, since the first light-emitting unit 501 is further disposed in each of the first pixel defining openings 301, when the display panel 100 needs to perform a full-screen display, the display panel 100 in the first display area 101 can still emit light normally, and a high display quality is maintained.
In this embodiment, the cathode layer 60 is disposed on the light emitting function layer 50 and the barrier layer 40. Specifically, the cathode layer 60 is formed in a patterned manner in the first display area 101 and the second display area 102 of the display panel 100. The cathode layer 60 does not cover the pixel defining layer 30, and the cathode layer 60 includes a first cathode unit 601 corresponding to each of the first pixel defining openings 301, corresponding to the first display region 101; in correspondence with the second display region 102, the cathode layer 60 further includes a second cathode unit 602 disposed in correspondence with each of the second pixel defining openings. Preferably, the first cathode unit 601 is located in the first pixel defining opening 301, and the second cathode unit 602 is located in the second pixel defining opening 302. Since the cathode layer 60 in the first display region 101 is only disposed in the first pixel defining opening 301, when ambient light passes through the pixel defining layer 30 in the first display region 101, the ambient light does not need to pass through the filtering effect of the cathode layer 60, so as to further improve the light transmittance of the first display region 101, increase the light collection amount of the optical element, and further enhance the light sensing function of the optical element. Further, in other embodiments of the present application, the first cathode unit located in the first pixel defining opening may only cover the first light emitting unit, and a vertical projection of the first cathode unit on the substrate does not overlap a vertical projection of the blocking unit on the substrate, that is, the cathode layer is not disposed on the blocking unit in the first pixel defining opening, so as to further improve the light transmittance of the first display area 101. Of course, the cathode layer is not limited to be disposed in the present application, and the entire surface of the cathode layer may be disposed on the pixel defining layer and covers the light emitting function layer, the blocking layer, and the pixel defining layer.
In this embodiment, the light-emitting functional layer 50 located in the first display region 101 is only disposed in the first pixel defining opening 301, and a vertical projection of the light-emitting functional layer 50 on the substrate 10 does not overlap with a vertical projection of the pixel defining layer 30 on the substrate 10, that is, the light-emitting functional layer 50 is not covered on the pixel defining layer 30 located in the first display region 101, so that when ambient light passes through the pixel defining layer 30 located in the first display region 101, the ambient light does not need to pass through a filtering effect of the light-emitting functional layer 50, the light transmittance of the first display region 101 is further improved, the light collection amount of the optical element is increased, and the photosensitive function of the optical element is further enhanced.
In this embodiment, the light-emitting function layer 50 located in the second display region 102 is only disposed in the second pixel defining opening 302, but the present application does not limit the film formation region of the light-emitting function layer 50 in the second display region 102, and in other embodiments of the present application, the light-emitting function layer 50 in the second display region 102 may cover the pixel defining layer 30.
In this embodiment, the blocking unit 401 is configured to deform under the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength, and recover after the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength is removed. The material forming the barrier unit 401 is, for example, an insulating material, and the non-conductive property of the barrier unit 401 enables the anode layer 20 and the cathode layer 60 not to be conducted through the barrier unit 401.
In this embodiment, the material forming the blocking unit 401 includes an azophenyl polymer, and the azophenyl polymer can be deformed under the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength and recover after the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength is removed. Specifically, the azophenyl polymer has the following characteristics: the form of trans-form may be changed to the form of cis-form under irradiation with light of a specific wavelength range, and the volume may expand, or the form of cis-form may be changed to the form of trans-form again under irradiation with light of a specific wavelength range, and the volume may be restored. In addition, the transmittance of the azo-phenyl polymer in the visible light band is greater than 90%, and the transmittance of the light-emitting functional layer 50 in the visible light band is generally less than 50%, so that the barrier unit 40 has high transmittance.
In this embodiment, the thickness of the first light emitting unit 501 is smaller than that of the second light emitting unit 502, so that light loss of external environment light when passing through the first light emitting unit 501 in the first display area 101 can be further reduced, light transmittance of the first display area 101 is further improved, a light collection amount of the optical element is increased, and a photosensitive function of the optical element is further enhanced. It should be noted that, since the light-emitting function layer 50 is generally made of an organic material, when the organic material is formed in the first pixel-defining opening 301, the blocking unit 401 can change from an initial state to a deformed state, and the dynamic change of the blocking unit 401 can prevent a part of the organic material from being formed in the first pixel-defining opening 301, so that the thickness of the first light-emitting unit 501 in the first pixel-defining opening 301 of the first display region 101 can be reduced.
In this embodiment, the first light emitting unit 501 includes a first red light unit, a first green light unit, and a first blue light unit, where the blocking unit 401 is disposed in the first pixel defining opening 301 corresponding to at least one of the first red light unit, the first green light unit, and the first blue light unit.
Preferably, the first light emitting unit 501 and the blocking unit 401 are disposed in each of the first pixel defining openings 301, so that light transmittance of the first display region 101 is maximized.
In this embodiment, the display panel 100 further includes, for example, an encapsulation layer 70, and the entire surface of the encapsulation layer 70 is disposed on, for example, the cathode layer 60 and the pixel definition layer 30. Specifically, the encapsulation layer 70 structure may be configured as a three-layer structure, that is, including a first inorganic layer, a second organic layer and a third inorganic layer. Of course, a multilayer laminated structure may be provided. The inorganic layer in the encapsulation layer 70 may be silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon oxide, or aluminum oxide material; the organic layer in the encapsulation layer 70 may be made of organic compound materials such as acrylic, epoxy, and silicon. It is easy to understand that, since the light emitting functional layer 50 is sensitive to external environments such as moisture and oxygen, if the light emitting functional layer 50 in the display panel 100 is exposed to the moisture or oxygen, the performance of the display panel 100 may be drastically reduced or completely damaged. The encapsulation layer 70 can block air and moisture for the light emitting units in the light emitting function layer 50, thereby ensuring reliability of the display panel 100.

As a further explanation, in the present embodiment, the blocking unit 401 of the blocking layer 40 is configured to deform under the illumination condition with a predetermined wavelength and recover after the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength is removed.
In this embodiment, the material forming the blocking unit 401 includes an azophenyl polymer, and the azophenyl polymer can be deformed under the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength and recover after the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength is removed. Specifically, the azophenyl polymer has the following characteristics: the form of trans-form may be changed to the form of cis-form under irradiation with light of a specific wavelength range, and the volume may expand, or the form of cis-form may be changed to the form of trans-form again under irradiation with light of a specific wavelength range, and the volume may be restored. In addition, the transmittance of the azo-phenyl polymer in the visible light band is greater than 90%, and the transmittance of the light-emitting functional layer 50 in the visible light band is generally less than 50%, so that the barrier unit 40 has high transmittance.
In this embodiment, the illumination condition with the predetermined wavelength is, for example, applying ultraviolet illumination to the barrier unit 401, and the predetermined wavelength is 254nm to 365nm; the light condition for removing the predetermined wavelength is, for example, removing the ultraviolet light applied to the blocking unit 401, and after the light condition for removing the predetermined wavelength is removed, applying a light condition of a visible light wavelength to the blocking unit 401 to recover the visible light wavelength, where the visible light wavelength is a green light band of 520nm to 560 nm.

In this embodiment, the thickness of the deformed blocking unit 401 is 2 to 3 times that of the first light emitting unit 501, and the thickness of the deformed blocking unit 401 is 1 to 1.5 times that of the pixel defining layer 30. Since the thickness of the deformed blocking unit 401 is 2-3 times the thickness of the first light emitting unit 501, the height of the deformed blocking unit 401 protruding out of the anode layer 20 is relatively high, and the step distance is relatively large, so that the continuous film formation of the light emitting function layer 50 in the first pixel defining opening 301 can be blocked in the film formation process of the light emitting function layer 50, and a high light transmittance structure in which a part of the blocking unit 401 is arranged in at least one first pixel defining opening 301 and a part of the first light emitting unit 501 is arranged in a part of the area is formed in the at least one first pixel defining opening 301.

For example, the first cathode unit 601 in the cathode layer 60 covers the barrier unit 401 and the first light emitting unit 501 simultaneously, and since the thickness of the restored barrier unit 401 is equal to that of the first light emitting unit 501, the surface of the first cathode unit 601 formed on the first light emitting unit 501 and the barrier unit 401 is flat, and the display effect of the display panel 100 in the first display area 101 is improved. Preferably, the thickness of the recovered barrier unit 401 is less than or equal to 3 μm.
