Description
本发明涉及平板显示技术领域,特别是涉及一种有机电致发光器件及其制备方法。
常规的有机电致发光器件(Organic Light Emitting Display,OLED)分为主动式有机电致发光器件(AMOLED)和被动式有机电致发光器件(PMOLED),但无论是在AMOLED的制备还是PMOLED的制备过程中,某些层的图形化通常会使用光刻工艺,即使用photo mask(光掩膜)进行刻蚀。
目前,在PMOLED的制备过程中,一般需要四道光刻工序,对于常规工艺流程来说,需要进行光刻工艺的层别依次为:PM(金属层)->PT(ITO层)->PI(绝缘层)->PR(隔离柱层)。而对于后镀工艺流程来说,需要进行光刻工艺的层别依次为PT(ITO层)->PM(金属层)->PI(绝缘层)->PR(隔离柱层),这些光刻工艺中均需使用光掩膜将图形刻蚀出来;当这些层制备完成后再进行有机材料和阴极的蒸镀工艺,然后进行封装工艺,最后进行模组流程。类似的制备方法可以参考中国专利CN200810227260.7。
但上述工艺流程制备出的有机电致发光器件弯折后,PR(隔离柱)容易倒塌、断裂、易造成行连。另外,隔离柱的高度影响薄膜封装效果,影响柔性屏的可靠性及可弯折性。

下面结合附图,说明本发明的较佳实施方式。
根据本发明的一个实施例,提供了一种有机电致发光器件(OLED)。如图1所示,该有机电致发光器件(OLED)包括:基板110、多个第一电极122、导电线路132、绝缘层140和多个第二电极150。多个第一电极122和导电线路132设置在基板110上,每个第一电极122均用以形成发光单元。绝缘层140设置在基板110上,用以限定发光单元的像素区域。多个第二电极150设置在基板110上,并位于第一电极122和导电线路132上方,每个第二电极150均用以形成发光单元,其中各第二电极间隔设置形成隔离沟槽160。第二电极150下方还会有有机发光材料,图中省略未示意出。
在本实施例中,基板110为玻璃基板,第一电极122材质为氧化铟锡薄膜,第二电极150的材质为金属,优选地,第二电极150的材质为铝或银。
以下详细说明根据本发明的一个实施例的有机电致发光器件(OLED)的制备方法。该方法可以制得上述OLED,其包括以下步骤:
步骤1、提供基板,基板上设置有多个第一电极和导电线路。每个第一电极均用以形成发光单元。
上述具有多个第一电极和导电线路的基板的可以通过如下方式(第一方法)制备。
参照图2,首先提供基板110。该基板110上已经设置有第一电极层120和线路层130,但是第一电极层120和线路层130尚未进行光刻,即第一电极和导电线路的图形均尚未形成。
具有第一电极层120和线路层130的基板110可以通过购买的方式获得。也可以是自行制备。当自行制备时,并不局限于某种特定方法。
基板110优选使用透明玻璃。第一电极层120形成的第一电极可以是阳极,
也可以是阴极,其材质优先使用ITO(氧化铟锡)薄膜。线路层130的材质一般采用金属,例如MoAlMo(钼铝钼)。
先蚀刻线路层130以得到导电线路132,然后蚀刻第一电极层120,得到第一电极122,最终如图1所示。
另外,上述有多个第一电极和导电线路的基板还可以通过如下方式(第二方法)制备:
提供基板110,基板110上仅设有第一电极层120。然后蚀刻第一电极层120,得到第一电极122。
然后在具有第一电极122的基板上设置线路层130。蚀刻线路层130,得到导电线路132。
步骤2、在所述基板上形成绝缘层的图形。绝缘层140的图形用于限定像素区域,可以采用任何适合的方式获得。
例如,可以在基板110上连续形成有机绝缘材料,之后采用能够形成绝缘层图形的光掩膜对有机绝缘材料进行曝光,然后显影,形成绝缘层的图形。该有机绝缘材料可以是光刻胶。
需要说明的是,步骤2中给出的绝缘层图形仅是一种示例,由于不同的OLED器件像素区域设计要求不同,而绝缘层140是用来限定发光单元的像素区域形状的,所以绝缘层图形也会不同。
获得绝缘层图形后,则进行在像素区域蒸镀有机发光材料的步骤,图1中省略示意出有机发光材料。
步骤3、利用掩膜板在所述蒸镀好有机发光材料的基板上蒸镀第二电极材料,形成多个第二电极150,各第二电极150之间形成隔离沟槽160,如图1所示。所述第二电极150用以形成发光单元。其中,第二电极150的材质为金属,例如铝或银等稳定的纯金属或合金。第二电极150同样既可以是阴极,也可以是阳极。
具体地,当步骤2进行完之后,正常进行蒸镀。但是在蒸镀形成第二电极150的图形时,各像素单元的第二电极150之间预留一定距离以形成隔离沟槽160。换言之,步骤3中,是在蒸镀的同时即同步形成隔离沟槽160。
隔离沟槽160的作用是用来作为电极隔离。如当第二电极150作为阴极时,隔离沟槽160用以隔离阴极。隔离沟槽160是蒸镀形成第二电极150时一并形成的,其不是一个突出物,因此不会影响后续的薄膜封装效果,也不会影响有机电致发光器件的弯折,从而能够保证利用有机电致发光器件制得的屏体的柔韧性,保证柔性显示效果。
与现有技术相比,本步骤的优点在于:一是不需要单独的形成隔离柱的步骤;二是隔离沟槽160是形成于各第二电极150之间,没有突出的柱状物,不会影响后续的薄膜封装效果;三是利用隔离沟槽160作为隔离物,当后续屏体弯折时,是在隔离沟槽160处弯折,不会如传统方案一样,轻易出现隔离物(即隔离柱)被折断的情况。
步骤4、对所述具有第一电极、第二电极的基板110进行封装。可以利用薄膜封装等技术实现OLED器件的封装,非本发明改进重点,此处不再赘述。
以上所述实施例的各技术特征可以进行任意的组合,为使描述简洁,未对上述实施例中的各个技术特征所有可能的组合都进行描述,然而,只要这些技术特征的组合不存在矛盾,都应当认为是本说明书记载的范围。
以上所述实施例仅表达了本发明的几种实施方式,其描述较为具体和详细,但并不能因此而理解为对发明专利范围的限制。应当指出的是,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本发明构思的前提下,还可以做出若干变形和改进,这些都属于本发明的保护范围。因此,本发明专利的保护范围应以所附权利要求为准。
