In the embodiment, the light emitting assembly 100 includes a pixel blocking layer 10, at least one light reflecting layer 30, at least one light emitting element 40, and an insulating encapsulation layer 50. The pixel blocking layer 10 is located on a surface of the array substrate 200 facing away from the bottom plate 300, at least one groove 11 is formed in one side of the pixel blocking layer 10 facing away from the array substrate 200, the reflective layer 30 is located on an inner wall of the groove 11, the light emitting element 40 is installed in the groove 11 and located on one side of the reflective layer 30 facing away from the pixel blocking layer 10, the insulating encapsulation layer 50 covers the groove 11 and encapsulates the light emitting element 40 in the groove 11, and a plurality of protruding structures 52 are convexly arranged on one side of the insulating encapsulation layer 50 facing away from the light emitting element 40, that is, the insulating encapsulation layer 50 covers an opening end of the groove 11 or a light emitting side of the light emitting component 100 (that is, one end of the groove 11 facing away from the pixel blocking layer 10). The light emitting elements 40 are electrically connected to the array substrate 200, and when the light emitting elements are operated (i.e., turned on), light is emitted toward the open ends of the grooves 11 (i.e., the ends of the grooves 11 facing away from the pixel blocking layer 10), the pixel blocking layer 10 is used for blocking light emitted from the adjacent light emitting elements 40, the reflective layer 30 is used for reflecting part of the light emitted from the light emitting elements 40 and emitting the reflected light from the open ends of the grooves 11, the protruding structures 52 are used for preventing the light emitted from the light emitting elements 40 from being totally reflected at the interface between the insulating encapsulation layer 50 and the air and further preventing the light from being emitted, i.e., the protruding structures 52 are used for preventing the light emitted from the light emitting elements 40 from being totally emitted at the open ends of the grooves 11 and further preventing the light from being emitted.
It can be understood that a plurality of grooves 11 are formed on a side of the pixel blocking layer 10 opposite to the array substrate 200, and each groove 11 is a pixel point. The number of the grooves 11 may be determined according to the resolution of the display panel 1000, for example, the number of pixels of the display panel with the resolution of 1920 × 1080 is 1920 × 1080, that is, the number of the grooves 11 is 1920 × 1080, the number of the light emitting elements 40 is 1920 × 1080, and the number of the light reflecting layer 30 is 1920 × 1080, that is, the grooves 11 and the light emitting elements 40 are arranged in a 1920 × 1080 matrix. Because the structures of all the pixel points are the same, one pixel point is selected for detailed introduction in the embodiment of the application.
In an exemplary embodiment, the bottom of a portion of the groove 11 is not covered by the light reflecting layer 30, so as to facilitate electrical connection between the light emitting element 40 and the array substrate 200.
In an exemplary embodiment, the overall shape of the recess 11 may be a hemisphere, that is, the recess 11 may be a hemispherical cavity, and accordingly, the light reflecting layer 30 is an annular surface corresponding to the inner wall of the recess 11, and the light reflecting layer 30 may reflect all the light rays emitted to the surface thereof to the insulating encapsulation layer 50 (i.e., the open end of the recess 11), so that the light loss of the light emitting element 40 is reduced, and the power consumption is reduced. In other embodiments, the overall shape of the groove 11 may also be rectangular, truncated cone, and conical, which is not particularly limited in this application. In this embodiment, the inner wall of the middle position of the groove 11 (i.e. the inner wall of the portion where the distance between the groove 11 and the array substrate 200 is the shortest) does not cover the light reflecting layer 30, so as to facilitate the electrical connection between the light emitting element 40 and the array substrate 200.
In an exemplary embodiment, the number of the grooves 11 corresponds to the number of the light reflecting layer 30 and the light emitting elements 40. It will be appreciated that one of the light reflecting layers 30 and one of the light emitting elements 40 are mounted and fixed in one of the recesses 11.
In an exemplary embodiment, the pixel blocking layer 10 may be made of a black positive photoresist. The reflective layer 30 may be a thin film made of molybdenum or silver. In an exemplary embodiment, the Light Emitting element 40 may be a Micro Light-Emitting Diode (Micro-LED), and the Micro-LED is a Light Emitting Diode with a micron size, and the Micro-LED may be used as a pixel on the display panel 1000 because of its small size, and the display panel 1000 manufactured by using the Micro-LED may be referred to as a Micro-LED display panel. The Micro-LED display panel has the advantages of high brightness, low power consumption, high resolution, long service life, high color saturation, wide viewing angle and the like. It is understood that the Light Emitting element 40 is a Micro-LED, which is only one embodiment in this embodiment, and in other embodiments of the present application, the Light Emitting element 40 may also be an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED), which is not particularly limited in this application.
In an exemplary embodiment, the insulating encapsulation layer 50 is used for insulating and protecting the light emitting element 40, and it is understood that the insulating encapsulation layer 50 mainly prevents moisture, dust, oxygen and other impurities from entering the groove 11, so as to protect the light emitting element 40, and increase the service life of the light emitting element 40.
In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of the protrusion structures 52 are positioned on the insulating encapsulation layer 50 corresponding to the grooves 11. The protruding structure 52 is used to prevent the light emitted from the light emitting device 40 from being totally reflected at the interface between the insulating encapsulation layer 50 and the air, so that the light cannot be emitted.
