Further, the thin film transistor may be a top gate thin film transistor or a bottom gate thin film transistor.
In the embodiment of the present application, the retaining wall 40 is disposed around the edge of the organic layer 32, and the second inorganic layer 33 covers the organic layer 32 and the retaining wall 40, so as to prevent intrusion of water and oxygen, and achieve a good packaging effect.
Specifically, the specific forming manner of each layer of the encapsulation layer 30 is as follows: the first inorganic layer 31 of the encapsulation layer 30 is deposited on the light emitting function layer 20 through any one process of monoatomic layer deposition (ALD), pulsed laser thin film deposition (PLD), sputtering (Sputter), plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD), etc., and the material of the first inorganic layer 31 includes, but is not limited to, siN x、SiOxNy、SiOx、SiCxNy、ZnO、AlOx.

Preferably, the thickness of the first inorganic layer 31 is between 50nm and 2 μm.

Preferably, the thickness of the first inorganic layer 31 is between 50nm and 2 μm.
Fig. 2 is a schematic view showing a first planar structure of a retaining wall 40 in a display panel 100 according to an embodiment of the application; the side of the retaining wall 40 facing the organic layer 32 is further provided with a plurality of grooves 401 disposed at intervals, and the grooves 401 do not penetrate through the retaining wall 40.
In the embodiment of the present application, the retaining wall 40 has a plurality of corners (4 in the embodiment of the present application), and the recess 401 is provided at each corner position of the retaining wall 40 toward one side of the organic layer 32. The grooves 401 are disposed at each corner position of the retaining wall 40, and the grooves 401 are in a ring structure and are disposed around the edges of the organic layer 32, so that the micro-openings of the grooves 401 have drainage effect on the polymer organic ink material forming the organic layer 32, and the incomplete filling condition of the polymer organic ink material at the corner position can be improved; meanwhile, since the recess 401 is added to the retaining wall 40, the risk of overflow of the polymeric organic ink material by the retaining wall 40 is reduced, and the process boundary corresponding to the inkjet printing is also increased.
Further, the depth of the groove 401 increases from the side away from the organic layer 32 to the side closer to the organic layer 32. By the arrangement, the flow rate of the polymer organic ink material flowing to the bottom of the groove 401 along the opening of the groove 401 can be slowed down, the condition that the polymer organic ink material is not completely filled at the corner position can be further improved, and the risk that the polymer organic ink material overflows from the corner position is further reduced.
Further, the retaining wall 40 is provided with a plurality of grooves 401 along the height direction of the retaining wall 40, and the spacing between two adjacent grooves 401 is equal. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of the grooves 401 are provided at each corner position of the retaining wall 40 toward the side of the organic layer 32. In the above arrangement, the retaining wall 40 is provided with the plurality of grooves 401 corresponding to the same corner position, and the spaces between two adjacent grooves 401 are equal, so that the flow channel of the polymer organic ink material forming the organic layer 32 is prolonged, the condition that the filling of the polymer organic ink material at the corner position is incomplete can be further improved, and the risk that the polymer organic ink material overflows from the corner position is further reduced.
In the embodiment of the present application, the bottom of the groove 401 may be a plane or an arc. When the bottom of the groove 401 is a cambered surface, the flow rate of the polymer organic ink material flowing to the bottom of the groove 401 can be further slowed down, the condition that the polymer organic ink material is not completely filled at the corner position can be further improved, and the risk that the polymer organic ink material overflows from the corner position is further reduced.
In an embodiment of the present application, the material of the retaining wall 40 may include, but is not limited to, acrylic, epoxy, polyimide, silicone, organic photoresist, and the like. Further, the height of the retaining wall 40 ranges from 2 μm to 20 μm, and the width of the retaining wall 40 ranges from 30 μm to 100 μm. If the height of the barrier wall 40 is less than 2 μm, the risk of the polymer organic ink material overflowing from the barrier wall 40 is easily caused, and if the height of the barrier wall 40 is greater than 20 μm, the film thickness of the second inorganic layer 33 is increased, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost of the encapsulation layer 30; if the width of the barrier rib 40 is smaller than 30 μm, the pressure of the polymer organic ink material contacting the barrier rib 40 is increased, so as to increase the surface tension of the polymer organic ink material, and further increase the uneven thickness of the edges and the middle of the organic layer 32, and if the width of the barrier rib 40 is larger than 100 μm, the coverage area of the second inorganic layer 33 is increased, and further increase the manufacturing cost of the encapsulation layer 30.
In the embodiment of the present application, the opening size of the recess 401 ranges from 1 μm to 20 μm. If the opening of the groove 401 is smaller than 1 μm, the capillary force generated by the groove 401 accelerates the flow rate of the polymer organic ink material flowing to the groove 401, so as to increase the risk of overflowing the polymer organic ink material from the corner; if the opening of the groove 401 is larger than 20 μm, the groove 401 cannot provide a blocking effect on the polymer organic ink material, and thus cannot slow down the flow rate of the polymer organic ink material.
Aiming at the technical problem that the current display panel 100 is difficult to realize low-cost detection of ambient light, the embodiment of the application provides the display panel 100; the display panel 100 comprises a light emitting functional layer 20, an encapsulation layer 30 and a retaining wall 40, wherein the encapsulation layer 30 is arranged on the light emitting functional layer 20, the encapsulation layer 30 comprises a first inorganic layer 31 and an organic layer 32 arranged on the first inorganic layer 31, the retaining wall 40 is in a ring-shaped structure and is arranged around the edge of the organic layer 32, a plurality of grooves 401 which are arranged at intervals are further arranged at each corner position of the retaining wall 40 towards one side of the organic layer 32, and the grooves 401 do not penetrate through the retaining wall 40; the above display panel 100 further comprises a plurality of grooves 401 arranged at intervals on one side of the retaining wall 40, wherein each corner position of the retaining wall 40 faces the organic layer 32, by surrounding one layer of the retaining wall 40 at the edge of the organic layer 32, the grooves 401 do not penetrate through the retaining wall 40, the grooves 401 can drain the organic ink material forming the organic layer 32, the phenomenon of incomplete filling of the organic ink material at each corner position of the retaining wall 40 can be improved, and meanwhile, the phenomenon of overflowing of the organic ink material from the retaining wall 40 is improved, so that the problem of uneven thickness of the edge of the organic layer 32 is solved, and the packaging effect of the display panel 100 is effectively improved.
Example two

Further, the retaining wall 40 includes a first sub-retaining wall 41 or a second sub-retaining wall 42 disposed between two adjacent corners, and the length of the first sub-retaining wall 41 is greater than the length of the second sub-retaining wall 42;

The reason for this is that the edge area of the first retaining wall 41 is larger than the edge area of the second retaining wall 42, so that the surface tension of the liquid of the organic ink material in the edge area of the first retaining wall 40 is smaller than the surface tension of the liquid of the organic ink material in the edge area of the second retaining wall 40, and the flow velocity of the organic ink material in the edge area of the first retaining wall 40 is smaller than the flow velocity of the organic ink material in the edge area of the second retaining wall 40. Therefore, the arrangement density of the second sub-grooves 421 on the second sub-barrier wall 42 is greater than the arrangement density of the first sub-grooves 411 on the first sub-barrier wall 41, so that the flow rate of the organic ink material in the edge area where the first barrier wall 40 is located is the same as the flow rate of the organic ink material in the edge area where the second barrier wall 40 is located, thereby solving the problem of uneven edge thickness of the organic layer 32 and further effectively improving the packaging effect of the display panel 100.
Compared with the first embodiment of the present application, in the second embodiment of the present application, the retaining wall 40 is disposed at the edge of the organic layer 32, and the retaining wall 40 has a ring structure; the edge area (frame position) of the retaining wall 40 is provided with a plurality of grooves 401, so that the organic layer 32 can be uniformly spread by utilizing capillary effect, so that the film thickness of the organic layer 32 in the edge area is uniform, the grooves 401 can play a role in draining the organic ink material forming the organic layer 32, the phenomenon that the organic ink material is incompletely filled in the peripheral edge position of the retaining wall 40 can be improved, and meanwhile, the phenomenon that the organic ink material overflows the retaining wall 40 is improved, thereby solving the problem of uneven edge thickness of the organic layer 32, and further effectively improving the encapsulation effect of the display panel 100.
Aiming at the technical problem that the current display panel 100 is difficult to realize low-cost detection of ambient light, the embodiment of the application provides the display panel 100; the display panel 100 comprises a light emitting functional layer 20, an encapsulation layer 30 and a retaining wall 40, wherein the encapsulation layer 30 is arranged on the light emitting functional layer 20, the encapsulation layer 30 comprises a first inorganic layer 31 and an organic layer 32 arranged on the first inorganic layer 31, the retaining wall 40 is in a ring-shaped structure and is arranged around the edge of the organic layer 32, a plurality of grooves 401 which are arranged at intervals are also arranged at one side of the edge area (frame position) of the retaining wall 40, which faces the organic layer 32, and the grooves 401 do not penetrate through the retaining wall 40; the above display panel 100 further comprises a plurality of grooves 401 arranged at intervals at each corner of the retaining wall 40, wherein the edges of the organic layer 32 surround the retaining wall 40 with a ring-shaped structure, the grooves 401 do not penetrate through the retaining wall 40, the grooves 401 can drain the organic ink material forming the organic layer 32, the phenomenon of incomplete filling of the organic ink material at the edge area of the retaining wall 40 can be improved, and meanwhile, the phenomenon of overflowing of the organic ink material out of the retaining wall 40 is improved, so that the problem of uneven edge thickness of the organic layer 32 is solved, and the packaging effect of the display panel 100 is effectively improved.
Example III
Fig. 4 is a schematic view showing a third planar structure of the retaining wall 40 in the display panel 100 according to the embodiment of the application; the structure of the retaining wall 40 in the display panel 100 according to the third embodiment of the present application is the same as or similar to the structure of the retaining wall 40 in the display panel 100 according to the first embodiment of the present application, and only the difference is that a portion of the retaining wall 40 between two adjacent corners is provided with a plurality of grooves 401 disposed at intervals on a side of the retaining wall 40 facing the organic layer 32, and the positions of the retaining wall 40 corresponding to the corners are also provided with the grooves 401.
Specifically, a portion of the retaining wall 40 between two adjacent corners is provided with a plurality of the grooves 401 disposed at intervals on a side facing the organic layer 32, and the positions of the retaining wall 40 corresponding to the corners are not provided with the grooves 401.
Further, the retaining wall 40 includes a first sub-retaining wall 41 or a second sub-retaining wall 42 disposed between two adjacent corners, and the length of the first sub-retaining wall 41 is greater than the length of the second sub-retaining wall 42;

Further, the depth of the groove 401 corresponding to each corner position is greater than the depth of the first sub-groove 411 or the second sub-groove 421. This is because the area of the edge region of the bank 40 is much larger than the area of the corner region of the bank 40, resulting in the liquid surface tension of the organic ink material of the bank 40 at the edge region being smaller than the liquid surface tension of the organic ink material of the bank 40 at the corner position, so that the flow rate of the organic ink material of the bank 40 at the edge region is smaller than the flow rate of the organic ink material of the bank 40 at the corner region. Therefore, the depth of the groove 401 corresponding to each corner position is greater than the depth of the first sub-groove 411 or the second sub-groove 421, so that the degree of slowing down the flow rate of the organic ink material at each corner position is greater than the degree of slowing down the flow rate of the organic ink material at the edge region, so that the flow rate of the organic ink material at the edge region of the retaining wall 40 is the same as the flow rate of the organic ink material at the corner position of the retaining wall 40, the problem of uneven edge thickness of the organic layer 32 is solved, and the packaging effect of the display panel 100 is effectively improved.
