Description

OLED显示器件 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种OLED显示器件。
背景技术
有机电致发光显示(Organic Light Emitting Display,OLED)器件不仅具有十分优异的显示性能,还具有自发光、结构简单、超轻薄、响应速度快、宽视角、低功耗及可实现柔性显示等特性,被誉为“梦幻显示器”,得到了各大显示器厂家的青睐,已成为显示技术领域中第三代显示器件的主力军。
OLED显示器件属于自发射型显示设备,通常包括分别用作阳极、与阴极的像素电极、公共电极、以及设在像素电极与公共电极之间的有机发光层,使得在适当的电压被施加于阳极与阴极时,从有机发光层发光。有机发光层包括了设于阳极上的空穴注入层、设于空穴注入层上的空穴传输层、设于空穴传输层上的发光层、设于发光层上的电子传输层、设于电子传输层上的电子注入层,其发光机理为在一定电压驱动下,电子和空穴分别从阴极和阳极注入到电子注入层和空穴注入层,电子和空穴分别经过电子传输层和空穴传输层迁移到发光层,并在发光层中相遇,形成激子并使发光分子激发,后者经过辐射弛豫而发出可见光。
一般而言,OLED显示器件具有多个呈阵列式排布的像素区,一具有多个开口的像素隔离层将每个像素区与其它像素区隔离开,每一开口对应一个像素区,上述像素电极与有机发光层对应设置在所述开口内,公共电极则覆盖于每一像素区的有机发光层与像素隔离层上。
由于所述有机发光层由有机材料形成,对水分、氧等非常敏感,故易于因水分、氧等的侵入而劣化变质。现有技术中,像素隔离层有的采用有机材料制成,发现当有机材料的像素隔离层具有与有机发光层接触的界面时,像素隔离层中的水分、氧等就会从该界面向有机发光层扩散,引起有机发光层内电子状态的变化,丧失理想的电场发光特性,使有机发光层劣化,影响显示效果。为了改善有机材料像素隔离层所带来的问题,出现了采用水分和氧含量较低的无机材料制作像素隔离层,然而采用无机材料制作像素隔离层时,构成像素隔离层开口的侧壁相对于基板以接近90度的角度直立,造成了对应于侧壁位置处的有机发光层及公共电极较其它位置的 厚度明显变薄,甚至造成间断,水分和氧等将从该公共电极明显变薄或间断处进入有机发光层,造成有机发光层的发光特性劣化,此外,当有机发光层在侧壁位置产生间断时,也可能使公共电极与像素电极之间的距离十分接近,导致两个电极短路,对有机发光层造成破坏。

及具有多个开口的像素隔离层5,所述像素隔离层5将每个像素区与其它像素区隔离开,所述开口由像素隔离层侧壁51围拢而成,每一开口对应一个像素区。
其中,所述像素电极2、及有机发光层3位于所述开口内,且所述有机发光层3覆盖所述像素隔离层侧壁51,所述公共电极4覆盖所述有机发光层3及像素隔离层5的上表面。
所述像素隔离层5的材料为无机材料,所述像素隔离层侧壁51包括自上而下设置的第一曲线部511、连接所述第一曲线部511的直线部512、及连接所述直线部512的第二曲线部513;所述直线部512平行于所述基板1,至少所述第一曲线部511的部分位置处的切面或第二曲线部513的部分位置处的切面与基板1之间的夹角小于85°。
值得一提的是,在保证至少所述第一曲线部511的部分位置处的切面或第二曲线部513的部分位置处的切面与基板1之间的夹角小于85°的前提下,所述第一曲线部511、及第二曲线部513不必要求二者在所有位置处的切面一律与基板1构成小于85°的夹角。
图2示意出了所述像素隔离层侧壁51的形状的第一实施例,所述第一曲线部511相对于所述像素隔离层5向内凹入,所述第二曲线部513相对于所述像素隔离层5亦向内凹入,所述第一曲线部512的部分位置处的切面与基板1之间的夹角小于85°,所述第二曲线部513的部分位置处的切面与基板之1间的夹角亦小于85°。所述第一曲线部511与直线部512以相切方式连接,所述第二曲线部513与直线部512以相接方式连接。
图3示意出了所述像素隔离层侧壁51的形状的第二实施例,所述第一曲线部511相对于所述像素隔离层5向外凸出,所述第二曲线部513相对于所述像素隔离层5亦向外凸出,所述第一曲线部511的部分位置处的切面与基板1之间的夹角小于85°,所述第二曲线部513的部分位置处的切面与基板1之间的夹角亦小于85°。所述第一曲线部511与直线部512以相接方式连接,所述第二曲线部513与直线部512以相切方式连接。
由于所述像素隔离层5的材料为水分和氧含量较低的无机材料,能够大大减少由像素隔离层侧壁51向有机发光层3中扩散的水分和氧;所述像素隔离层侧壁51由所述第一曲线部511、直线部512、及第二曲线部513构成的形状能够使得覆盖于像素隔离层侧壁51上的有机发光层3及覆盖于有机发光层3上的公共电极4厚度均匀,防止了有机发光层3与公共电极4在像素隔离层侧壁51的位置产生间断,防止水分和氧渗透到有机发光层3,解决了由像素隔离层侧壁51引起的有机发光层3的劣化问题,避免了公共电极4与像素电极2短路,从而改善了显示效果,提升了OLED显示器件的寿命。
具体地,所述基板1内形成有薄膜晶体管、扫描线、数据信号线,薄膜晶体管由栅极、半导体层、及源/漏极构成,且所述像素电极2连接薄膜晶体管的源/漏极,具体的薄膜晶体管、扫描线、数据信号线在基板1内的布置与连接为现有技术,此处不再详述。
所述像素隔离层5的材料为氮化硅,所述像素隔离层5通过等离子体化学气相沉积(Chemical Vapor Deposition,CVD)工艺制作,像素隔离层5的开口通过蚀刻工艺制作。进一步地,由于氮化硅材料的氮组分比越低,蚀刻速率越快,将所述像素隔离层5设置成由氮组分比不同的多个氮化硅层叠加构成,以形成所述像素隔离层侧壁51所需的形状。
可将所述像素电极2作为OLED显示器件的阳极,将所述公共电极4作为OLED显示器件的阴极。此种情况下,所述像素电极2的材料为具有高功函数的金属氧化物,如氧化铟锡(ITO)、氧化铟锌(IZO)等;所述公共电极4的材料为具有高导电率和低功函数的金属,如银(Ag)、镁(Mg)、铝(Al)、锂(Li)、金(Au)、镍(Ni)或钙(Ca)等。所述像素电极2即阳极起光路透射作用,所述公共电极4即阴极起光路反射作用。
也可将所述像素电极2作为OLED显示器件的阴极,将所述公共电极4作为OLED显示器件的阳极。此种情况下,所述像素电极2的材料为具有高导电率和低功函数的金属,如Ag、Mg、Al、Li、Au、Ni或Ca等;所述公共电极4的材料为具有高功函数的金属氧化物,如ITO、IZO等。所述像素电极2即阴极起光路反射作用,所述公共电极4即阳极起光路透射作用。
所述有机发光层3包括了空穴注入层、空穴传输层、发光层、电子传输层、及电子注入层,与现有技术无异,此处不再详述。
综上所述,本发明的OLED显示器件,一方面采用无机材料形成像素隔离层,大大减少由像素隔离层侧壁向有机发光层中扩散的水分和氧,一方面将像素隔离层侧壁自上而下设置成第一曲线部、直线部、及第二曲线部,且设置所述直线部平行于所述基板,至少所述第一曲线部的部分位置处的切面或第二曲线部的部分位置处的切面与基板之间的夹角小于85°,使得覆盖于像素隔离层侧壁上的有机发光层及覆盖于有机发光层上的公共电极厚度均匀,防止有机发光层与公共电极在像素隔离层侧壁的位置产生间断,防止水分和氧渗透到有机发光层,能够解决由像素隔离层侧壁引起的有机发光层的劣化问题,避免公共电极与像素电极即OLED显示器件的阴阳极短路,改善显示效果,提升OLED显示器件的寿命。
以上所述,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,可以根据本发明的技术方案和技术构思作出其他各种相应的改变和变形,而所有这些改变和变形都应属于本发明权利要求的保护范围。
