在一种实施例中,所述第一金属层50包括铟、锡、镓、铅、铟锡合金、铟镓合金中的至少一种。
S302、在所述第一开口内填充第一溶液。
请参阅图2D,本步骤主要在所述第一开口401内填充第一溶液402,但所述第一溶液402的厚度不高于所述像素定义层40的厚度。
S303、在所述第一溶液上设置所述微发光二极管单元,使所述微发光二极管单元悬浮在所述第一溶液上。
在本步骤中,具体包括:
S3031、在母板上制作所述微发光二极管单元;
S3032、将所述微发光二极管单元均匀地分散在第二溶液中;
S3033、利用喷墨打印机中的特定喷头,将所述第二溶液滴入所述第一开口内,使所述微发光二极管单元悬浮在第一溶液上。
在一种实施例中,所述第二溶液优选为墨水。将混有所述微发光二极管单元的墨水填充在所述喷墨打印机中,使用特定的喷头将墨水滴入所述第一开口401中,并确保滴入所述第一开口401中的墨水中包括一个所述微发光二极管单元。

在一种实施例中,所述二极管单元包括第一电极603、设置于所述第一电极603上的发光单元604、及设置于所述发光单元上的第二电极605。即当所述第一电极603与所述第二电极605分别施加正负电荷时,形成完整的回路使得是发光单元604发光。
请参阅图4,所述第二介质602靠近所述第一电极603设置,即设置于所述微发光二极管单元60的底端,使得所述二极管单元与所述第一电极层30形成一定的间距。
在一种实施例中,所述二极管单元还包括第二开口606和第三开口607。所述第二开口606使部分所述第一电极603裸露,所述第三开口607使部分所述第二电极605裸露。所述第二开口606用于所述第一电极层30与所述第一电极603连接,所述第三开口607用于所述第二电极层与所述第二电极605连接。

在一种实施例中,当所述微发光二极管单元60进入所述第一开口401时,由于所述第一介质601与所述第一溶液402互相排斥使得所述微发光二极管单元60不溶于所述第一溶液402中,而所述第二介质602与所述第一溶液402互相吸引使得所述微发光二极管单元60定位于所述第一开口401的某一位置。因此,利用所述第一介质601、所述第二介质602与所述第一溶液402之间的特性,所述微发光二极管单元60在所述第一开口401内进行自动对位。
S304、利用预定工艺去除所述第一溶液,使所述微发光二极管单元与所述第一电极连接。
本步骤中,具体包括:

请参阅图2F,本步骤主要为采取第一烘烤工艺,即初步加热,去除所述第一开口401内的第一溶液402,使所述微发光二极管单元60与所述第一金属层50接触。
S3042、利用第二烘烤工艺,去除所述第二介质及使所述第一金属层呈熔融状态,使所述第一金属层通过所述第二开口与所述第一电极连接。
请参阅图2G,本步骤主要为采取第二烘烤工艺,即持续加热,去除所述第二介质602及使所述第一金属层50呈熔融状态,使所述第一金属层50通过所述第二开口606与所述第一电极603连接。所述第二烘烤工艺的加热温度高于所述第一烘烤工艺的加热温度。
S305、在所述第一开口内形成平坦层。
请参阅图2H,在所述第一开口401内沉积一层平坦层70。本步骤中的平坦层70与薄膜晶体管层20中的平坦层材料相同。所述平坦层70覆盖所述第一电极层30。所述平坦层70的厚度不大于所述微发光二极管单元60的厚度。所述平坦层70的材料可以为绝缘材料。
在一种实施例中,由于形成所述平坦层70时,所述微发光二极管单元60上可能被所述平坦层70覆盖,影响所述微发光二极管单元60与第二电极层的连接。因此,利用灰化工艺去除所述微发光二极管单元60上所述平坦层70。
S40、在所述微发光二极管单元上形成第二电极层。
请参阅图2I,在所述微发光二极管单元60上形成第二电极层80。当所述显示面板为底发射型发光器件时,所述第二电极层80为非透明材料,使发光层产生的光线经过所述第二电极层80向所述基板10方向投射。
在一种实施例中,所述第二电极层80的的材料可以为银(Ag)、铝(Al)、铬(Cr)、钼(Mo)、钨(W)、钛(Ti)、金(Au)、钯(Pd)中的一种或一种以上的组合物。
S50、在所述第二电极层上形成薄膜封装层。
请参阅图2J,在所述第二电极层上形成一薄膜封装层90。所述薄膜封装层90主要起阻水阻氧的作用,防止外部水汽对有机发光层的侵蚀,所述薄膜封装层90主要由至少一有机层与至少一无机层交错层叠而成。通常有机层位于所述薄膜封装层90的中间,无机层位于所述薄膜封装层90的两侧,将有机层包裹在中间。
本申请还提出了一种显示面板,所述显示面板采用上述显示面板的制作方法制成。
本申请还提出了一种电子装置,所述电子装置包括所述显示面板,所述电子装置的工作原理、所述电子装置的工作原理与所述显示面板的工作原理相似,所述电子装置的工作原理以及所述电子装置的工作原理具体可以参考所述显示面板的工作原理,这里不做赘述。
所述电子装置包括但不限定于手机、平板电脑、计算机显示器、游戏机、电视机、显示屏幕、可穿戴设备及其他具有显示功能的生活电器或家用电器等。
本申请提出了一种显示面板及其制作方法,所述制作方法包括:提供一阵列基板;在所述阵列基板上形成第一电极层及像素定义层,所述像素定义层包括至少一第一开口;利用喷墨打印机中的特定喷头,将混合有微发光二极管单元的溶液滴入所述第一开口内,使所述微发光二极管单元形成于所述第一开口内;在所述微发光二极管单元上形成第二电极层;在所述第二电极层上形成封装层。本申请利用喷墨打印机中的特定喷头,将混合有微发光二极管单元的溶液滴入阵列基板上,完成所述微发光二极管单元从母板到阵列基板的转移,降低了所述微发光二极管的转移难度,提高了微发光二极管显示面板的良率。
综上所述,虽然本申请已以优选实施例揭露如上,但上述优选实施例并非用以限制本申请,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本申请的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本申请的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
