为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本公开实施例的附图,对本公开实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例是本公开的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于所描述的本公开的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
除非另外定义,本公开使用的技术术语或者科学术语应当为本公开所属领域内具有一般技能的人士所理解的通常意义。本公开中使用的“第一”、“第二”以及类似的词语并不表示任何顺序、数量或者重要性,而只是用来区分不同的组成部分。“包括”或者“包含”等类似的词语意指出现该词前面的元件或者物件涵盖出现在该词后面列举的元件或者物件及其等同,而不排除其他元件或者物件。“连接”或者“相连”等类似的词语并非限定于物理的或者机械的连接,而是可以包括电性的连接,不管是直接的还是间接的。“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”等仅用于表示相对位置关系,当被描述对象的绝对位置改变后,则该相对位置关系也可能相应地改变。
显示基板的发光器件包括有机发光二极管(OLED)以及量子点发光二极管(QLED)等。OLED器件中的层级结构一般由有机材料制成,QLED 器件中的层级结构一般由无机材料制成。例如,OLED器件的封装层通常包括无机材料、有机材料或者无机材料和有机材料的组合,QLED器件的封装层通常包括无机材料,例如包括氧化铟锡或氧化铟锌等无机材料。对于顶发射型结构的发光器件而言,由于无机材料的折射率较高,发光器件在出光时,光线从封装层进入空气时易发生全反射,因此导致发光器件的出光效率较低。
例如,对于顶发射型结构的OLED器件和QLED器件,光线从器件中的封装层向外界发射,由于无机材料的折射率通常高于有机材料的折射率,例如QLED器件中的封装层的折射率通常为1.4~1.6,OLED器件中的封装层的折射率通常为1.2~1.4,因此器件在出光时,光线从封装层进入空气时容易发生全反射,导致器件的出光效率较低。在一些情况下,与OLED器件相比,QLED器件在出光时,光线从封装层进入空气时可能更容易发生全反射,导致QLED器件的出光效率较低。
本公开至少一实施例提供一种显示基板及其制造方法、显示装置,可以解决相关技术中发光器件,例如OLED器件或者QLED器件等的出光效率较低的问题。
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
本公开一些实施例提供了一种显示基板,如图1A所示,该显示基板可以包括衬底基板101和发光器件。发光器件包括在衬底基板101上依次叠层的第一电极103、发光材料层106和第二电极108,发光材料层106的出光侧(例如图中的上侧)设置有微棱镜结构,例如多个微棱镜结构。
例如,在一些实施例中,发光材料层106是发光功能层120中的一层,第二电极108位于发光功能层120的出光侧,发光功能层120与第二电极108之间设置有微棱镜结构。
例如,在一些示例中,如图1A所示,发光功能层120包括发光材料层106以及在发光材料层106的远离衬底基板101一侧(即图中的上侧)的电子传输层107,例如,电子传输层107包括微棱镜结构M。由此,微棱镜结构M设置在发光功能层120与第二电极108之间。例如,第二电极108与电子传输层107保形,从而第二电极108与电子传输层107之间的界面为非平坦界面。
例如,在一些示例中,如图1D所示,发光功能层108与第二电极120之间还可以具有其他功能层,并且该功能层具有微棱镜结构,例如,发光功能层108与第二电极120之间具有导电层180,导电层180上形成有微棱镜结构M。导电层180例如包括氧化锌、氧化铟锡等材料。
例如,在一些实施例中,发光功能层120包括位于发光材料层106的出光侧的多个功能层(例如下方介绍的电子传输层107和电子注入层117),多个功能层之一的表面具有微棱镜结构。例如,发光功能层120的位于发光材料层106和位于出光侧的最外层之间的第一层具有微棱镜结构,发光功能层的位于第一层的出光侧的功能层与第一层保形。例如,发光功能层120的位于出光侧的最外层具有微棱镜结构。
例如,在一些示例中,如图1B和图1C所示,发光功能层120包括发光材料层106以及在发光材料层106的远离衬底基板101一侧依次叠层的电子传输层107和电子注入层117。例如,如图1B所示,电子传输层107包括微棱镜结构M。此时,发光功能层120的位于发光材料层106和位于出光侧的最外层之间的第一层即为电子传输层107。或者,如图1C所示,电子注入层117包括微棱镜结构M。此时,发光功能层120的位于出光侧的最外层具有微棱镜结构。例如,发光功能层120上方的第二电极108与电子传输层107或电子注入层117保形。
例如,在一些实施例中,如图1A-图1D所示,表面具有微棱镜结构的功能层与微棱镜结构为由同种材料形成的一体结构。在其他实施例中,表面具有微棱镜结构的功能层与微棱镜结构也可以为非一体结构,即为独立的两个结构。
例如,在一些实施例中,发光功能层120还包括在发光材料层106的靠近衬底基板101一侧依次叠层的空穴传输层105和空穴注入层104。
例如,在发光器件中,发光功能层中的电子传输层107、电子注入层117、空穴传输层105和空穴注入层104可以选择性设置。例如,对于QLED而言,发光材料层106包括量子点发光材料,由于量子点发光材料的电子传输能力较强,因此可以不设置电子注入层117。例如,对于OLED而言,发光材料层106包括有机发光材料,此时,上述功能层(包括空穴注入层104、空穴传输层105、电子传输层107和电子注入层117)可以均设置,以提高发光器件的发光效率。当然,在一些实施例中,根据所采用的有机发光材料等实 际情况,也可以只设置其中的几个。
例如,如图1A-图1C所示,显示基板还包括设置在衬底基板101上的驱动电路层102以及封装层109。例如,驱动电路层102包括多个薄膜晶体管TFT以及电容,封装层109覆盖在发光器件上,以对发光器件进行封装。
例如,以图1A为例,电子传输层107的远离衬底基板101的表面上形成有多个微棱镜结构M,第二电极108和封装层109保形地设置在电子传输层107远离衬底基板101的表面上,从而第二电极108和封装层109为非平坦结构。该实施例中,第二电极108和封装层109保形地设置在电子传输层107远离衬底基板的表面上,也即是,电子传输层107与第二电极108之间非平面接触,第二电极108与封装层109之间非平面接触。
例如,在一些示例中,第一电极103作为发光器件的阳极,第二电极108作为发光器件的阴极,本公开的实施例对此不做限定。例如,阳极、空穴注入层、空穴传输层、发光材料层、电子传输层和阴极(在一些示例中还包括电子注入层)组成的结构也可称为自发光器件。
在本公开的实施例中,上述自发光器件可以为QLED器件,也可以为OLED器件,所提供的显示基板可以为顶发射型结构,也可以为底发射型结构,本公开的实施例对此不做具体限定。例如,当显示基板为底发射型结构时,QLED器件的出光侧为QLED器件的靠近衬底基板的一侧,例如发光材料层的靠近衬底基板的一侧设置有微棱镜结构,此时发光功能层的靠近衬底基板的一侧的表面包括微棱镜结构。例如,当自发光器件为QLED器件时,发光材料层可以包括量子点材料,该量子点材料能够发出红、绿、蓝三种颜色的光,以形成自发光器件中的红色像素、绿色像素和蓝色像素。
需要说明的是,光线发生全反射的条件包括:当光线的入射角大于全反射的临界角θ(sinθ=出射介质的折射率/入射介质的折射率)时,光线会在入射介质与出射介质的临界面上发生全反射。
例如,在一些示例中,电子传输层107包括氧化锌,第二电极108作为阴极,包括氟化锂或铝。例如,由氟化锂或铝制备得到的膜层的厚度小于10纳米,以保证膜层的透光性。例如,在由氟化锂或铝制备得到的膜层上还可以形成导电层,该导电层可以起到封装层的作用,可以作为封装层。例如,该导电层包括氧化铟锡或氧化铟锌,该导电层的厚度可以为50~100纳米。其中,氧化锌的折射率大于2,氧化铟锡或氧化铟锌的折射率为1.4~2,氟化 锂和铝的折射率为0.6~1.6。例如,铝对波长为450纳米的光的折射率为0.63,对波长为550纳米的光的折射率为1.01,对波长为650纳米的光的折射率为1.56。
综上所述,本公开一些实施例提供的显示基板,一方面,由于发光材料层的出光侧设置有微棱镜结构,例如电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上具有微棱镜结构,从而第二电极与电子传输层或电子注入层之间的界面可以为非平坦界面,当光线从电子传输层或电子注入层发射到第二电极(例如阴极)和封装层中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,另一方面,由于封装层为非平坦结构,当光线从显示基板的内部通过封装层发射到外界环境中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,因此提高了显示基板的出光效率。
例如,在一些实施例中,也可以是空穴传输层105或空穴注入层104包括微棱镜结构,或者发光功能层102中还可以包括其他功能层,并利用该功能层形成微棱镜结构,只要使发光功能层102的远离衬底基板101的表面形成为不平坦结构即可,本公开的实施例对微棱镜结构的具体设置位置不做限定。
本公开的实施例对显示基板中的其他功能结构的具体形式不做限定。例如,驱动电路层102中的薄膜晶体管TFT可以包括依次形成在衬底基板上的栅极金属图案、栅绝缘层、有源层、源漏极金属图案和钝化层。例如,在一个示例中,栅极金属图案可以由金属钼(Mo)制备得到,其厚度可以为200纳米;栅绝缘层可以由二氧化硅(SiO
2)制备得到,其厚度可以为150纳米,有源层可以由铟镓锌氧化物(Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide,IGZO)制备得到,其厚度可以为40纳米,源漏极金属图案可以由金属钼制备得到,其厚度可以为200纳米;钝化层可以由二氧化硅制备得到,其厚度可以为300纳米。
例如,如图2所示,显示基板还可以包括像素界定层110。像素界定层110包括多个开口,以限定显示基板的多个像素单元。例如,在显示基板的制造工艺中,第一电极103(例如为阳极,也可称为像素电极)和像素界定层110可以在形成有驱动电路层102的衬底基板101上依次形成,再在有像素界定层110的多个开口中依次形成空穴注入层、空穴传输层、发光材料层、电子传输层(和电子注入层)等,之后形成阴极和封装层(图中未标出)等 结构。例如,在一个示例中,第一电极103作为阳极,可以由氧化铟锡(Indium Tin Oxide,ITO)制备得到,其厚度可以为40纳米;像素界定层110可以由亚克力材料制备得到,其厚度可以为0.7微米,像素界定层110的坡度角(即像素界定层的斜面与底面的夹角)w可以为60度。
例如,在一些实施例中,以图3A为示例,微棱镜结构包括底面M1和与底面M1相接的至少一个侧表面M2,至少一个侧表面M2的至少与底面M1相接的一部分与底面的夹角α在45°-90°之间,可以等于端值。
例如,所述侧表面可以是弧面或者弯曲面而非平直的平面,弧面或弯曲面与底面的夹角指的是该面上点的切平面与底面的夹角。
例如,如图3A所示,在垂直于衬底基板的方向上,电子传输层107上的微棱镜结构M的截面可以呈矩形;或者,如图3B所示,电子传输层107上的微棱镜结构M的截面可以呈三角形;或者,如图3C所示,电子传输层107上的微棱镜结构M的截面可以呈梯形;或者,如图3D所示,电子传输层107上的微棱镜结构M的截面可以呈弧形,本公开的实施例对微棱镜结构的具体形状不做限定。
例如,如图4所示,显示基板中还可以包括设置在封装层109的远离衬底基板101一侧的圆偏振片111,圆偏振片111可以避免用户在强光条件下从显示基板的显示面所在侧看到显示基板内部的结构,影响显示装置的外观。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供的显示基板,一方面,由于发光材料层的出光侧设置有微棱镜结构,例如电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上具有微棱镜结构,从而第二电极与电子传输层或电子注入层之间的界面可以为非平坦界面,当光线从电子传输层或电子注入层发射到第二电极和封装层中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,另一方面,由于封装层为非平坦结构,当光线从显示基板的内部通过封装层发射到外界环境中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,因此提高了显示基板的出光效率。
本公开的实施例提供了一种显示装置,该显示装置包括上述任一实施例提供的显示基板。该显示装置具有较高的出光效率。
例如,显示装置可以为液晶面板、电子纸、手机、平板电脑、电视机、 显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
综上所述,本发明实施例提供的显示装置,一方面,由于发光材料层的出光侧设置有微棱镜结构,例如电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上具有微棱镜结构,从而第二电极与电子传输层或电子注入层之间的界面可以为非平坦界面,当光线从电子传输层或电子注入层发射到第二电极(例如阴极)和封装层中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,另一方面,由于显示基板中的封装层为非平坦结构,当光线从显示基板的内部通过封装层发射到外界环境中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,因此提高了显示基板的出光效率。

例如,在一些实施例中,参照图1A,在发光材料层的出光侧形成微棱镜结构包括:在发光材料层的远离衬底基板一侧形成电子传输层,并利用电子传输层形成微棱镜结构,例如,在电子传输层的远离衬底基板的表面形成微棱镜结构。

综上所述,本公开实施例提供的显示基板的制造方法,通过在发光材料层的出光侧形成微棱镜结构,例如在电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上形成多个微棱镜结构,并在形成有多个微棱镜结构的电子传输层或电子注入层上依次保形地形成第二电极(例如阴极)和封装层,使得封装层为非平坦结构,一方面,由于电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上具有微棱镜结构,当光线从电子传输层发射到阴极和封装层中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,另一方面,由于封装层为非平坦结构,当光线从显示基板的内部通过封装层发射到外界环境中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,因此提高了显示基板的出光效率。
图6是本公开实施例提供的另一种显示基板的制造方法的流程图,如图6所示,该方法可以包括:
步骤301、提供衬底基板。
例如,该衬底基板可以由玻璃、硅片、石英以及塑料等透明材料制成,并采用标准方法清洗。
步骤302、在衬底基板上形成驱动电路层。
例如,驱动电路层包括多个薄膜晶体管TFT等结构。例如,该TFT为顶栅型TFT,也可以为底栅型TFT,本公开的实施例对此不做限定。例如,在衬底基板上形成底栅型TFT的过程可以包括:
S11、在衬底基板上通过沉积的方式形成厚度为200纳米的金属钼层,再通过构图工艺形成栅极金属图案;
S12、在形成有栅极金属图案的衬底基板上通过沉积的方式形成厚度为150纳米的二氧化硅膜层,再通过构图工艺形成栅绝缘层;

其中,一次构图工艺可以包括:光刻胶涂覆、曝光、显影、刻蚀和光刻胶剥离等工序。
需要说明的是,上述实施例仅为示例性说明,在一些实施例中,栅极金属图案和源漏极金属图案还可以由铝等材质制成,栅绝缘层和钝化层还可以由二氧化氮等材质制成,本公开实施例对TFT中各层级结构的材质以及厚度均不做限定。
步骤303、在形成有驱动电路层的衬底基板上依次第一电极、像素界定层、空穴注入层、空穴传输层、发光材料层和电子传输层。
例如,第一电极为发光器件的阳极,可以在形成有驱动电路层的衬底基板通过沉积ITO的方式形成金属层,并通过构图工艺而形成;然后,在形成有第一电极的衬底基板上通过旋涂或沉积亚克力材料的方式形成亚克力层,并通过光刻、固化等工艺形成像素界定层。构图形成的像素界定层包括多个开口,以限定显示基板的多个像素单元。例如,像素界定层的坡度角可以为60度,像素界定层的厚度可以为0.7微米。
例如,在采用等离子体技术处理像素界定层远离衬底基板的表面后,采用喷墨打印等工艺分别在像素界定层的多个开口中形成空穴注入层和空穴传输层。例如,空穴注入层可以由热塑聚合物PEDOT:PSS(3,4-乙烯二氧噻吩/聚苯乙烯磺酸盐)制备得到,空穴传输层可以由1,2,4,5-四(三氟甲基)苯(1,2,4,5-Tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)Benzene,TFB)制备得到,空穴注入层和空穴传输层的总厚度可以为50~100纳米;再依次通过例如喷墨打印的方式形成发光材料层(例如量子点发光材料层或者有机发光材料层), 然后通过喷墨打印或溅射等方式形成电子传输层,电子传输层的厚度可以为30~200纳米。
例如,电子传输层可以由氧化锌制备得到。例如,在其他实施例中,电子传输层上还可以形成电子注入层,电子注入层可以由氧化铯(Cs

步骤304、在电子传输层的远离衬底基板的表面上形成微棱镜结构。
例如,在电子传输层的远离衬底基板的表面上形成多个微棱镜结构。例如,在一个示例中,形成多个微棱镜结构的方法流程图可以如图7所示,该方法包括:
步骤3041、采用包含金属微粒的墨水在电子传输层的远离衬底基板的表面上形成掩膜层。
例如,通过打印或旋涂的方式在电子传输层上形成掩膜层。示例的,金属微粒的材质可以为四氧化三铁(Fe
3O
4),金属微粒可以呈球状,金属微粒的直径可以为50纳米~100微米,本公开实施例对金属微粒的形状、材质和尺寸均不做限定。
步骤3042、通过掩模层对电子传输层进行刻蚀,以在电子传输层远离衬底基板的表面形成微棱镜结构。
例如,从掩膜层远离衬底基板的一侧,采用感应耦合等离子体工艺或高密度等离子体工艺对电子传输层进行刻蚀,以在电子传输层的远离衬底基板的表面形成多个微棱镜结构。
例如,在对电子传输层进行刻蚀的过程中,可以调整刻蚀环境中的等离子气体的流率,以控制对电子传输层的刻蚀速率;其中,等离子气体的流率与刻蚀速率正相关。
例如,当采用感应耦合等离子体工艺对电子传输层进行刻蚀时,刻蚀得到的微棱镜结构可以呈柱状,例如可以参见图3A;当采用高密度等离子体工艺对电子传输层进行刻蚀时,当等离子气体的流率为0时,刻蚀得到的微棱镜结构可以呈三角锥状,例如可以参见图3B,当等离子气体的流率为50标准毫升/分钟(Standard Milliliter per Minute,sccm),由于刻蚀速率较快,刻蚀得到的微棱镜结构可以呈柱状。
例如,在一些示例中,可以调整等离子气体的流率为0、5sccm或50sccm,本公开实施例对此不做限定。例如,等离子气体可以为氧气、氮气或氩气等。
步骤3043、去除掩膜层。
例如,在一些示例中,可以采用强力磁铁(例如永磁体)或电磁铁吸附金属微粒,以去除掩膜层。例如,可以采用磁感应强度大于1特斯拉的磁铁,在空气或非极性溶剂(例如氧化锌的正交溶剂,即无法溶解氧化锌的溶剂)中,距离掩膜层1微米以上的位置处吸附金属微粒,以去除掩膜层。并且,在距离掩膜层1微米以上的位置吸附金属微粒,可以避免对显示基板的结构造成损伤。
例如,在一些示例中,也可以通过构图工艺在电子传输层远离衬底基板的一面上形成多个微棱镜结构,本公开实施例对此不做限定。
步骤305、在形成有微棱镜结构的电子传输层上保形地形成第二电极。
例如,第二电极为阴极,可以采用氟化锂或铝通过蒸镀的方式在形成有多个微棱镜结构的电子传输层上保形地形成,由氟化锂或铝制备得到的膜层的厚度小于10纳米,以保证膜层的透光性。
步骤306、在第二电极的远离衬底基板的一侧保形地形成封装层,使得封装层为非平坦结构。
例如,可以采用氧化铟锡或氧化铟锌通过溅射的方式在第二电极的远离衬底基板的一侧保形地形成封装层。
步骤307、在封装层的远离衬底基板的一侧形成圆偏振片。
例如,可以在封装层的远离衬底基板的一侧贴附圆偏振片,以避免在强光条件下从显示基板的显示面所在侧看到显示基板内部的结构,影响显示装置的外观。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例提供的显示基板的制造方法中各步骤的先后顺序可以进行适当调整,各步骤也可以根据情况进行相应增减,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本公开揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化的方法,都应涵盖在本公开的保护范围之内,因此不再赘述。
综上所述,本公开实施例提供的显示基板的制造方法,通过在发光材料层的出光侧形成微棱镜结构,例如在电子传输层或电子注入层的远离衬底基板的表面上形成多个微棱镜结构,并在形成有多个微棱镜结构的电子传输层或者电子注入层上依次保形地形成阴极和封装层,使得封装层为非平坦结构。一方面,由于电子传输层或电子注入层远离衬底基板的表面上具有微棱镜结构,当光线从电子传输层或电子注入层发射到第二电极(例如阴极)和 封装层中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,另一方面,由于封装层为非平坦结构,当光线从显示基板的内部通过封装层发射到外界环境中时,出射面上不同位置的曲率不同,光线的入射角度不易满足发生全反射的条件,减少了发生全反射的光线,因此提高了显示基板的出光效率。
需要注意的是,在本公开的实施例中,“保形”是指具有共同的形貌,或者保持同一形状,例如,将第二层设置在第一层上时,第二层与第一层具有相同或相似的表面形貌。
还有以下几点需要说明:
(1)本公开实施例的附图只涉及到与本公开实施例涉及到的结构,其他结构可参考通常设计。
(2)为了清晰起见,在用于描述本公开的实施例的附图中,层或区域的厚度被放大或缩小,即这些附图并非按照实际的比例绘制。可以理解,当诸如层、膜、区域或基板之类的元件被称作位于另一元件“上”或“下”时,该元件可以“直接”位于另一元件“上”或“下”或者可以存在中间元件。
(3)在不冲突的情况下,本公开的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合以得到新的实施例。
以上,仅为本公开的具体实施方式,但本公开的保护范围并不局限于此,本公开的保护范围应以权利要求的保护范围为准。
