技术领域
本公开涉及有机发光二极管(OLED)显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种OLED显示面板及其制备方法、掩膜板。

请参考图1,图1为现有技术中的OLED显示面板的一剖面结构示意图,该OLED显示面板主要包括:衬底基板101,反射金属层102,阳极103,空穴传输层(HTL)104,发光层(EML)105,电子传输层(ETL)106,半透明金属阴极(Cathode)107,以及光取出层108。其中,空穴传输层104、发光层105、电子传输层106及金属阴极107通常都是采用真空蒸镀工艺来成膜,真空蒸镀工艺中采用的掩膜板(mask)有精细金属掩膜板(FMM,Fine metal mask)和共同层金属掩膜板(Open mask),而金属阴极107通常是采用Open mask来进行真空蒸镀,采用Open mask形成的金属阴极为整面设置的金属阴极。
由于金属阴极对于光的吸收和反射都很强,因此包括整面设置的金属阴极的OLED显示面板的光的损失很大,导致出光率很低(请参考图2),图中的箭头表示光的方向。另外,由于金属阴极对光的反射较大,因此使得OLED显示面板中形成微腔效应,而微腔效应的一个缺点就是,显示色彩随视角的变化会有显著变化。

可选地,各个所述阴极单元通过设置于显示区域外围的连接线连接在一起形成一个整体。
本公开实施例还提供一种用于制备OLED显示面板的阴极的掩膜板,包括透过区和遮挡区,当所述掩膜板采用负性光刻胶时,所述透过区的图案对应于所述阴极上的阴极单元的图案,所述遮挡区的图案对应于所述阴极单元之间的间隙的图案;当所述掩膜板采用正性光刻胶时,所述遮挡区的图案对应于所述阴极上的阴极单元的图案,所述透过区的图案对应于所述阴极单元之间的间隙的图案。
本公开实施例还提供一种OLED显示面板的制备方法,包括采用上述掩膜板形成阴极的步骤,所述步骤包括:
将阴极膜材置于真空室内的蒸发源中;
在所述基板靠近蒸发源的一侧设置掩膜板;
通过所述蒸发源对所述阴极膜材进行蒸发,所述阴极膜材蒸发气化后从所述蒸发源中逸出,到达被镀的基板表面上,凝结形成所述阴极。
本公开的上述技术方案的有益效果如下:
在OLED显示面板的阴极上形成间隙,在间隙的位置上,OLED显示面板的发光层发出的光线可以直接透过,与现有技术中整面设置的阴极相比,可以减少阴极对发光层发出的光线的吸收和反射,提高了OLED显示面板的出光率,且可以减弱微腔效应,解决了OLED显示面板的显示色彩随视角变化的问题。
