Description

柔性显示面板及其制造方法、柔性显示装置 技术领域
本公开涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种柔性显示面板及其制造方法、柔性显示装置。
背景技术
显示装置是一种用于显示文字、数字、符号、图片,或者由文字、数字、符号和图片中至少两种组合形成的图像等画面的装置。显示装置可以为平面显示装置、曲面显示装置、3D显示装置、近眼显示装置、AR/VR显示装置等
目前,随着科技的快速发展,柔性显示装置逐渐走入人们的视野并受到人们的追捧,例如,现有技术存在一种柔性显示装置,包括柔性显示面板,柔性显示面板包括显示区和位于显示区周边的非显示区,为了增加柔性显示装置的屏占比,会将某些非显示区作为弯折区,并将弯折区弯折至柔性显示面板的背部,例如驱动芯片所在的区域,而弯折区内可能具有大量走线,用于传递实现柔性显示装置的显示、触摸等功能的信号。
在现有的柔性显示面板中,当将弯折区弯折时,弯折区内的走线也会随之发生弯折,走线容易产生裂纹甚至发生断裂,导致走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
发明内容
鉴于上述问题,本公开实施例提供一种柔性显示面板及其制造方法、柔性显示装置,用于解决柔性显示面板中弯折区被弯折时,弯折区内的走线容易产生裂纹甚至发生断裂而造成走线的导电功能受到不良影响的技术问题。
为了实现上述目的,本公开实施例提供如下技术方案:
本公开实施例的第一方面提供一种柔性显示面板,包括显示区和位于所述显示区周边的弯折区,所述弯折区包括:柔性衬底;调整层,覆盖整个所述柔性衬底;保护层,位于所述调整层上;走线,位于所述保护层上;平坦化层,位于所述走线上方、且覆盖所述柔性衬底上的功能膜层,其中所述保护层与所述弯折区内的走线对应的保护层,所述弯折区内的走线在所述柔性衬底上的正投影落入所述保护层在所述柔性衬底上的正投影内;所述弯折区被弯折时,弯折应力通过所述调整层与所述保护层之间的界面释放,以缓解所述弯折区被弯折时所述保护层所承受的应力。
在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板的弯折区内,在柔性衬底上设置一层调整层,并 在走线下方设置一层保护层,保护层与调整层之间形成界面,通过该界面释放弯折区被弯折时的弯折应力,以缓解弯折区被弯折时保护层所承受的应力,从而可以减少弯曲区内的走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响;同时,由于保护层与调整层之间形成界面,通过该界面可以释放弯折区被弯折时的弯折应力,因而在工艺能够实现的范围内调整层的厚度和保护层的厚度均可以设置为较小的厚度,因此当对弯折区进行弯折时,弯曲区的应力不易集中,且调整层中的应力和保护层中的应力较易释放,从而可以减少弯曲区内的走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响;并且,在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,保护层与弯折区内的走线对应,弯折区内的走线在柔性衬底上的正投影落入保护层在柔性衬底上的正投影内,与通常采用的走线下方的功能膜层覆盖面积较大的结构相比,当对弯折区进行弯折时,保护层内不易形成应力集中,且保护层中的应力容易释放,进一步减少走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述保护层在所述柔性衬底上的正投影与所述弯折区内的走线在所述柔性衬底上的正投影重合,减小了走线下方的保护层的覆盖面积,当对弯折区进行弯折时,保护层内不易形成应力集中,且保护层中的应力容易释放,进一步减少走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述弯折区内相邻的走线之间不存在构成整体的保护层,从而可以防止应力相互传导,进一步减少走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述走线与所述平坦化层之间还设置有钝化层,所述弯折区被弯折时,所述钝化层所承受的应力与所述保护层所承受的应力相等。当对弯折区进行弯折时,钝化层与保护层相互配合,将应力释放出去,同时,钝化层所承受的应力与保护层所承受的应力相等,走线在钝化层和保护层的牵扯下,走线的上下两侧受力均匀,从而可以进一步减少走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述钝化层覆盖所述弯折区内的走线和所述调整层。即钝化膜在沉积完成后,不再进行刻蚀等工艺,直接作为钝化层。如此,可以减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述钝化层位于所述弯折区内的走线上,且与所述弯折区内的走线对应。即钝化膜在沉积完成后,对钝化膜进行刻蚀,形成位于弯 折区内的走线上且与弯折区内的走线对应的钝化层,所述钝化层在所述柔性衬底上的正投影与所述弯折区内的走线在所述柔性衬底上的正投影重合。如此,钝化层不覆盖弯折区内的走线的侧面,可以减少应力由弯折区内的走线的侧面传导至弯折区内的走线的几率,并减少相邻的弯折区内的走线之间应力传导的几率,从而可以减少走线出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述钝化层为氧化硅钝化层、氮化硅钝化层、氮氧化硅钝化层或有机材料钝化层。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述调整层为a-Si(非晶硅)层。将调整层的材料选用为a-Si的情况下,当显示区内的薄膜晶体管为低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管时,调整层与低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管的有源层可以共用一个膜层结构,无需额外形成调整层,从而减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本;另外,在形成有源层时,直接在a-Si上进行掺杂处理形成即可,无需进行刻蚀,进一步减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述调整层的厚度小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000001
优选为小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000002
使得弯曲区的应力不易集中。
作为本公开柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述保护层为氧化硅保护层,防止在沉积保护膜时,保护膜的材料中的氢键对显示区内的薄膜晶体管造成不良影响。
作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的一种改进,所述保护层的厚度小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000003
优选为
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000004
若保护层的厚度更厚则易造成保护层内容易发生应力集中。
本公开实施例的第二方面提供一种柔性显示装置,所述柔性显示装置包括如上述技术方案所述的柔性显示面板。
所述柔性显示装置与上述柔性显示面板相对于现有技术所具有的优势相同,在此不再赘述。

作为本公开实施例柔性显示面板的制造方法的一种改进,形成所述保护层、所述走线和所述钝化层,包括:形成保护膜;对所述保护膜进行刻蚀,形成与所述弯折区内的走线对应的所述保护层;优选的,所述弯折区内的走线在所述柔性衬底上的正投影与所述保护层在所述柔性衬底上的正投影重合;在所述保护层上形成所述走线;形成所述钝化层,所述钝化层覆盖所述弯折区内的走线和所述调整层;或者,形成所述保护层、所述走线和所述钝化层,包括:形成保护膜;在所述保护膜上形成所述走线;形成钝化膜,所述钝化膜覆盖所述弯折区内的走线和所述保护膜;对所述钝化膜和所述保护膜进行刻蚀,形成与所述弯折区内的走线对应的保护层,以及与所述弯折区内的走线对应的钝化层;优选的,所述弯折区内的走线和所述保护层以及所述钝化层三者在所述柔性衬底上的正投影重合。

具体实施方式
为了使本公开实施例的上述目的、特征和优点能够更加明显易懂,下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有付出创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,均属于本公开保护的范围。
现有技术中的柔性显示面板存在走线的导电功能容易受到不良影响的问题,主要在于走线容易产生裂纹,而走线容易产生裂纹的原因主要在于,一方面弯折柔性显示面板的弯折区时,弯折手法不统一且不规范,例如弯折半径过小,造成弯折区出现应力集中的现象,弯折区存在较大的应力且该应力的受力面积较小,从而造成弯折区的走线产生裂纹甚至发生断裂,进而导致走线的导电功能受到不良影响;另一方面走线周边尤其是走线上方或下方的功能膜层的结构限制,以及功能膜层之间的应力不匹配,当弯折区被弯折时,弯折区中功能膜层内的应力难以释放,进而造成弯折区中走线容易产生裂纹甚至发生断裂,进而导致走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
针对上述第一方面,虽然是因为对弯折区进行弯折时的手法不统一且不规范导致的,但其根本原因仍然在于弯折区内功能膜层的结构限制以及功能膜层之间应力不匹配,造成集中在弯折区的应力难以释放,进而造成弯折区中走线容易产生裂纹甚至发生断裂,从而导致走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
因此,无论是上述哪个方面的原因,走线的导电功能受到不良影响的原因实质上在于弯折区内功能膜层的结构限制以及功能膜层之间应力不匹配,造成集中在弯折区的应力难以释放,进而造成弯折区的走线容易产生裂纹甚至发生断裂,导致走线的导电功能受到不良影响。
请参阅图1、图2或图3,本公开实施例提供一种柔性显示面板,包括柔性衬底10、调整层11、保护层12、走线13和平坦化层15,其中,柔性衬底10承载柔性显示面板内的各功能膜层,所述功能层包括,例如,调整层11、保护层12、走线13,在有钝化层的情况下,还包括钝化层,并为柔性显示面板的可弯折提供保证,柔性衬底10可以为单层结构,此时,柔性衬底10可以采用聚酰亚胺(Polyimide,PI)制得,柔性衬底10也可以为多层结构,此时,柔性衬底10中的至少一层可以采用聚酰亚胺(Polyimide,PI)制得。
调整层11位于柔性衬底10上,且调整层11覆盖整个柔性衬底10;保护层12位于调整层11上,且保护层12与柔性显示面板中弯折区内的走线13对应,具体的,弯折区内的走线13在柔性衬底10上的正投影落入保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影内,优选的,保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影与走线13在柔性衬底10上的正投影重合,保护层12与调整层11之间形成界面,弯折区被弯折时的弯折应力可通过该界面释放,以缓解弯折区被弯折时保护层12所承受的应力;走线13位于保护层12上,走线13用于传递柔性显示面板实现柔性显示装置的显示、触摸等功能的信号,走线13可以为金属走线13,即走线13由金属制得,例如可以为单质金属或合金制得,走线13可以为单层结构,也可以为多层结构,优选地,走线13为多层结构,且走线13至少包括三层,处于外面的两层起到保护中间层的作用,例如,走线13可以为三层结构,此时,走线13可以采用三明治结构,如Ti/Al/Ti、Mo/Al/Mo结构等;平坦化层15位于走线13上,且平坦化层15覆盖柔性衬底10上的功能膜层,以保护柔性衬底10上的功能膜层,同时方便后续膜层的形成,例如方便OLED(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,有机发光二极管)器件的形成,平坦化层15可以为有机材料平坦化层或无机材料平坦化层。
在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板的弯折区内,在柔性衬底10上设置一层调整层11,并在走线13下方设置一层保护层12,保护层12与调整层11之间形成界面,通过该界面释放弯折区被弯折时的弯折应力,以缓解弯折区被弯折时保护层12所承受的应力,从而可以减少弯曲区内的走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响;同时,由于保护层12与调整层11之间形成界面,通过该界面可以释放弯折区被弯折时的弯折应力,因而调整层11的厚度和保护层12的厚度均可以设置为较小的厚度,优选地小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000005
使得当对弯折区进行弯折时,应力不易集中,且调整层11中的应力和保护层12中的应力较易释放,从而可以减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响;并且,在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,保护层12与弯折区内的走线13对应,弯折区内的走线13在柔性衬底10 上的正投影落入保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影内,优选地两者的正投影彼此重合,与通常采用的走线13下方的功能膜层覆盖面积较大的结构相比,当对弯折区进行弯折时,保护层12内不易形成应力集中,且保护层12中的应力容易释放,进一步减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响。
另外,在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,保护层12与弯折区内的走线13对应,可以理解为走线13在柔性衬底10上的正投影落入保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影内,优选地走线13在柔性衬底10上的正投影与保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影重合,且弯折区内相邻的走线13之间不存在构成整体的保护层12,从而可以防止应力相互传导,进一步减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响。
再者,在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,在柔性衬底10上设置有调整层11,且调整层11覆盖整个柔性衬底10,也就是说,图1、图2或图3中柔性衬底10的上表面被调整层11覆盖,不会暴露在外,当后续形成调整层11上方的功能膜层时,可以防止柔性衬底10的材料带来污染,例如,当在刻蚀腔室中对调整层11上方的膜进行刻蚀,以形成对应的功能膜层时,调整层11可以作为刻蚀阻挡层,防止对柔性衬底10进行刻蚀,从而可以防止刻蚀腔室被柔性衬底10的材料污染;再例如,防止柔性衬底10的材料对后续形成的功能膜层造成污染。
应用有本公开实施例中的柔性显示面板的柔性显示装置可以应用于不同的产品中,例如可以应用在手机、平板电脑、电子书等产品中,在此不一一列举说明。
在上述实施例中,保护层12与柔性显示面板中弯折区内的走线13对应,优选的,保护层12在柔性衬底10上的正投影与走线13在柔性衬底10上的正投影重合,进一步减小走线13下方的保护层12的覆盖面积,当对弯折区进行弯折时,保护层12内不易形成应力集中,且保护层12中的应力容易释放,进一步减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响。
请继续参阅图2或图3,在本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,走线13与平坦化层15之间还可以设置钝化层14,弯折区被弯折时,钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等。当对弯折区进行弯折时,钝化层14与保护层12相互配合,将应力释放出去,同时,弯折区被弯折时,钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等,走线13在钝化层14和保护层12的牵扯下,走线13的上下两侧受力均匀,从而可以进一步减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响。
上述实施例中,弯折区被弯折时,钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等,此时,当钝化层14的材料品质与保护层12的材料品质相当时,可以将钝化层14的厚度与保护层12的厚度设置为相等,以实现弯折区被弯折时,使得钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等;当钝化层14的材料品质与保护层12的材料品质相差较大时,则需要根据材料品质的差异性来确定功能膜层的厚度,以实现弯折区被弯折时,使得钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等。当在走线13与平坦化层15之间设置有钝化层14时,钝化层14的结构可以有多种,例如,请继续参阅图2,钝化层14可以覆盖弯折区内的走线13和调整层11,即钝化膜在沉积完成后,不再进行刻蚀等工艺,直接作为钝化层14。如此,可以减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本。
或者,请继续参阅图3,钝化层14位于弯折区内的走线13上,且钝化层14与弯折区内的走线13对应,即钝化膜在沉积完成后,对钝化膜进行刻蚀,形成位于弯折区内的走线13上且与弯折区内的走线13对应的钝化层14,如此,钝化层14不覆盖弯折区内的走线13的侧面,可以减少应力由弯折区内的走线13的侧面传导至弯折区内的走线13的几率,并减少相邻的走线13之间应力传导的几率,从而可以减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响。
当钝化层14位于走线13上,且钝化层14与走线13对应时,当钝化层14的材料与保护层12的材料相同,或者,刻蚀形成钝化层14的刻蚀工艺与刻蚀形成保护层12的刻蚀工艺相同时,在制造柔性显示面板时,可以先沉积保护膜,然后在保护膜上形成走线13,然后沉积钝化膜,然后利用一个掩膜板,依次刻蚀钝化膜和保护膜,形成钝化层14和保护层12,以减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本。
在上述实施例中,在保证弯折区被弯折时,钝化层14所承受的应力与保护层12所承受的应力相等的前提下,钝化层14的材料选择可以根据实际需要进行,例如,钝化层14的材料可以选用氧化硅、氮化硅、氮氧化硅、有机材料等。
在上述实施例中,调整层11的材料可以选用a-Si,本公开实施例提供的柔性显示面板中,显示区内的薄膜晶体管可以采用低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管,低温多晶硅薄膜晶体管包括有源层、源极、漏极和栅极,其中,有源层位于柔性衬底上,有源层为P型Si,由a-Si经掺杂制得,也就是说,有源层在调整层的基础上形成,栅极位于有源层上,源极和漏极分设于栅极两侧,并由a-Si经离子注入形成。如此,将调整层11的材料选用为a-Si,则无需额外形成调整层11,从而减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本; 另外,在形成有源层时,直接在a-Si上经掺杂形成即可,无需进行刻蚀,进一步减少制造柔性显示面板的工艺步骤,提高效率,降低成本。
在上述实施例中,调整层11的厚度可以根据实际需要进行设定,例如,调整层11的厚度可以设定为小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000006
优选为小于或等于
Figure PCTCN2019088647-appb-000007
使得应力不易集中。
在上述实施例中,保护层12的材料可以根据实际需要进行选择,例如,保护层12的材料可以选择为氧化硅、氮化硅、氮氧化硅或者有机材料,在本公开实施例中,保护层12的材料优选为氧化硅,以防止在沉积保护膜时,保护膜的材料中的氢键对显示区内的薄膜晶体管造成不良影响。
在上述实施例中,保护层12与调整层11的配合,可以减少走线13出现裂纹甚至断裂的现象的发生,防止走线13的导电功能受到不良影响,保护层12的厚度可以设定为较小,例如,保护层12的厚度可以设定为小于或等于
