In addition, the present invention provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize the application of other processes and/or the use of other materials.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application, where the display panel provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a functional area 1 and an edge packaging area 2 surrounding the functional area, and the display panel includes: a substrate 11 including a first portion located in the functional region 1 and a second portion located in the edge packaging region 2, the first portion having a thickness greater than that of the second portion; a dielectric layer 12 disposed on the surface of the substrate 11; the retaining wall 13 is arranged above the dielectric layer 12 and is positioned at the boundary of the functional area 1, which is close to the edge packaging area 2; the encapsulation layer 14 is disposed on the dielectric layer 12 and the retaining wall 13, wherein the encapsulation layer 14 includes a first inorganic encapsulation layer 141, an organic encapsulation layer 142, and a second inorganic encapsulation layer 143, and the organic encapsulation layer 142 is disposed on a side of the retaining wall 13 facing the functional area 1.
Wherein the dielectric layer 12 is used for realizing electric insulation of the internal devices of the display panel and providing isolation protection for the surrounding environment; the retaining wall 13 is used for blocking the organic encapsulation layer 142 from overflowing the display panel; the encapsulation layer 14 is used for reducing the external impurities such as water vapor and oxygen from entering the display panel, so as to reduce the influence of the external impurities such as water vapor and oxygen on the display panel, realize effective encapsulation, and improve the encapsulation reliability.
In the display panel currently produced on the market, as shown in fig. 2, the display panel includes a packaging area 20, a substrate 21, an inorganic layer 22, a double-wall structure 23 and a packaging layer 24 which are sequentially stacked, specifically, the double-wall structure 23 is used for blocking organic materials in the packaging layer 24 from overflowing the display panel, in addition, in order to ensure the effectiveness of the packaging area 20, the length of the packaging area 20 is generally set longer in the horizontal direction of the display panel, so that the space occupied by the packaging area 20 and the double-wall structure 23 is larger, and therefore, when the frame of the display screen is manufactured in the practical application process, enough space needs to be reserved for the frame to ensure that the size of the frame is large enough, so that the reducible space of the frame is limited, and the narrow frame effect of the display screen is poor.
In order to avoid the above-mentioned situation, in this embodiment, the thickness of the first portion is greater than the thickness of the second portion by setting the substrate to be greater than the thickness of the first portion, so that there is a thickness difference between the functional area and the edge packaging area, and an area corresponding to the thickness difference is located in the edge packaging area, that is, a plane which is not parallel to a plane where the display panel is located is formed at an edge, which is close to the functional area, in the edge packaging area, so that the occupation space of the edge packaging area in the horizontal direction of the display panel is reduced while the edge packaging area is ensured to have a sufficiently large effective area.
Specifically, during the actual process, the second portion may be subjected to cutting treatment so that the thickness of the second portion is smaller than that of the first portion, optionally, during the cutting, the thickness of the second portion is gradually reduced in a direction away from the functional area 1 while ensuring that the thickness of the second portion is smaller than that of the first portion everywhere, or the thickness of the second portion is unchanged in a direction away from the functional area.
Specifically, in the first embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the thickness of the second portion gradually decreases in a direction away from the functional area 1, that is, a plane inclined from the functional area 1 to the edge packaging area 2 to the lower right is formed at the edge of the edge packaging area 2 near the functional area 1, and an angle between the plane and the plane in which the display panel is located may be set according to practical application requirements, for example, the thickness of the second portion gradually decreases in a direction away from the functional area 1, and a plane inclined downward from the functional area 1 to the edge packaging area 2 is formed, and an angle between the plane and the plane in which the display panel is located is 45 °.
Optionally, the surface of the second portion is one or a combination of a plane, a concave curved surface or a convex curved surface, which can be selected according to practical application requirements, so the surface morphology of the second portion is not specifically limited herein. Because the effective area of the substrate surface can be further increased by the concave curved surface/the convex curved surface, when the surface of the second part comprises the concave curved surface or the convex curved surface, the effective area of the edge packaging area can be further increased, so that the reducible space of the frame is further increased, and the narrow frame effect of the display screen is better.
In a second embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the thickness of the second portion is constant in a direction away from the functional area 1, i.e. a plane is formed in the edge packaging area 2 near the edge of the functional area 1 vertically downwards from the functional area 1 to the edge packaging area 2, so that the second portion forms a right angle structure with the first portion, where the angle between the plane and the plane in which the display panel is located is 90 °.
In the third embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the thickness of the second portion is unchanged in the direction away from the functional area 1, and a plane inclined from the edge packaging area 2 to the functional area 1 to the lower left is formed in the edge packaging area 2 near the functional area 1, that is, the second portion and the first portion form an undercut structure, and likewise, the angle of the undercut structure (that is, the angle between the plane and the plane in which the display panel is located) may be set according to practical requirements, for example, the thickness of the second portion is unchanged in the direction away from the functional area 1, and a plane inclined from the edge packaging area 2 to the lower left of the functional area 1 is formed in the edge packaging area 2 near the functional area 1, and the angle between the plane and the plane in which the display panel is located is 135 °.
Further, since the organic encapsulation layer 142 is a flexible component, in this embodiment, the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 and the second inorganic encapsulation layer 143 are sandwiched between two sides of the organic encapsulation layer 142 to protect and support the organic encapsulation layer 142, and in the practical application process, the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 may be deposited on the surface of the dielectric layer 12 by chemical vapor deposition, and the second inorganic encapsulation layer 143 may be deposited on the surface of the organic encapsulation layer 142; the organic encapsulation layer 142 may be formed by fabricating an organic material on the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 by means of IJP (Ink Jet Printing), spin coating, spray coating, or the like, and performing photo-curing or thermal curing, and the organic encapsulation layer 142 is formed after the organic material is cured. Alternatively, the materials of the first and second inorganic encapsulation layers 141 and 143 include silicon nitride, silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, and the like; the organic material used to prepare the organic encapsulation layer 142 may include an acrylic-based polymer, a silicon-based polymer, an epoxy-based polymer, or the like.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the encapsulation layer 14 is only described by taking the three-layer structure as an example, however, the encapsulation layer 14 may also have a five-layer, seven-layer or other layer structure, and the film structure of the encapsulation layer 14 may be determined based on actual requirements in the actual application process, so the film structure of the encapsulation layer 14 is not specifically limited herein.
Specifically, when the thickness of the second portion gradually decreases in a direction away from the functional region, as shown in fig. 1, the thickness of the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 on the surface of the second portion is unchanged, the thickness of the second inorganic encapsulation layer 143 on the surface of the second portion is unchanged, and the thickness of the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 on the surface of the second portion is the same as the thickness of the second inorganic encapsulation layer 143 on the surface of the second portion; when the thickness of the second portion is constant in a direction away from the functional region, as shown in fig. 3 or 4, the thickness of the first inorganic encapsulation layer 141 decreases in a direction toward the second portion, and the thickness of the second inorganic encapsulation layer 143 decreases in a direction toward the second portion.
In addition, the display panel provided in this embodiment further includes a cutting area (not shown in the drawing), where the cutting area is located at a side of the edge packaging area 2 away from the functional area 1 and is adjacent to the edge packaging area 2, and considering that a gap exists between the first inorganic packaging layer 141 and the second inorganic packaging layer 143 at the location of the retaining wall 13 possibly due to process limitations in the practical application process, in this scenario, the organic material in the overflowing portion of the organic packaging layer 142 flows through the edge packaging area 2 through the gap and finally flows to the cutting area, and only the cutting area is needed to cut off the organic material in the portion, so that the organic material in the overflowing portion is finally cut off in the edge packaging area 2, thereby ensuring that the organic material cannot overflow the display panel.
