Description

一种柔性有机发光显示装置及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,具体涉及一种柔性有机发光显示装置及其制备方法。
背景技术
有机发光显示装置(英文全称:Organic Light-Emitting Diode, 简称OLED)又称为有机电激光显示装置、有机发光半导体。OLED的基本结构是由一薄而透明具有半导体特性的铟锡氧化物(ITO)与电力之正极相连,再加上另一个金属阴极,包成如三明治的结构。整个结构层中包括了:空穴传输层(HTL)、发光层(EL)与电子传输层(ETL)。当电力供应至适当电压时,正极空穴与阴极电荷就会在发光层中结合,在库伦力的作用下以一定几率复合形成处于激发态的激子(电子-空穴对),而此激发态在通常的环境中是不稳定的,激发态的激子复合并将能量传递给发光材料,使其从基态能级跃迁为激发态,激发态能量通过辐射驰豫过程产生光子,释放出光能,产生光亮,依其配方不同产生红、绿和蓝RGB三基色,构成基本色彩。
首先OLED的特性是自己发光,不像薄膜晶体管液晶显示装置(英文全称:Thin film transistor-liquid crystal display,简称TFT-LCD)需要背光,因此可视度和亮度均高。其次OLED具有电压需求低、省电效率高、反应快、重量轻、厚度薄,构造简单,成本低、广视角、几乎无穷高的对比度、较低耗电、极高反应速度等优点,已经成为当今最重要的显示技术之一,正在逐步替代 TFT-LCD,有望成为继LCD之后的下一代主流显示技术。
技术问题
随着时代的进步发展,平面显示装置已经满足不了许多特殊情况的需求,使得业界开始研究柔性可弯折的显示装置。其中由于OLED可以利用柔性材料作为柔性基底,进而制成柔性可弯折的显示装置。因此,如何提高柔性显示装置的弯折性能成为当下的关键问题。
技术解决方案
本发明的一个目的是提供一种柔性有机发光显示装置,其能够解决目前柔性显示装置存在的弯折性能低的问题。

进一步地,其中所述第二像素隔离层的厚度范围为0.5-2μm。
进一步地,其中所述第一像素隔离层的厚度范围为0.6-4μm。

进一步地,其中所述有机层包括:空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子阻挡层、发光层、电子传输层、电子注入层、阴极、腔长调节层以及LiF层。
进一步地,其中所述结构层包括:偏光片、触控层以及封面。
进一步地,其中所述封装层包括由无机材料构成的封装层,所述无机材料为SiNx、SiOx、SiONx、SiCNx、Al2O3中的至少一种。
进一步地,其中所述封装层包括由有机材料构成的封装层,所述有机材料为亚克力,环氧树脂中的至少一种。本发明的又一个目的是提供一种柔性有机发光显示装置的制备方法,其中所述柔性有机发光显示装置定义有弯折区和平直区;包括以下步骤:
步骤S1:提供一柔性基底;
步骤S2:在所述柔性基底上形成缓冲层;

步骤S6:在所述第一像素隔离层、所述第二像素隔离层和所述阳极上设置有机层;
步骤S7:在所述有机层上设置封装层;

当某些组件,被描述为“在”另一组件“上”时,所述组件可以直接置于所述另一组件上;也可以存在一中间组件,所述组件置于所述中间组件上,且所述中间组件置于另一组件上。当一个组件被描述为“安装至”或“连接至”另一组件时,二者可以理解为直接“安装”或“连接”,或者一个组件通过一中间组件“安装至”或“连接至”另一个组件。
如图1所示,一种柔性有机发光显示装置,定义有弯折区100和平直区200,包括依次设置的柔性基底1、缓冲层2、第一绝缘层31、第二绝缘层32、第三绝缘层33、聚合物平坦层4以及第一像素隔离层51、第二像素隔离层52以、阳极6、有机层7、封装层8以及结构层9。
其中,柔性基底1由金属或聚合物类材料组成,由此组成的柔性基底1的柔韧性好,能满足不同的柔性OLED显示装置的需求。
其中,缓冲层2设置于所述柔性基底1上,所述缓冲层2主要由SiNx或者SiOx中的至少一种组成。由此形成的缓冲层2致密度和平整度比较好。
其中,第一绝缘层31设置于所述缓冲层2上,所述第一绝缘层31主要由SiNx或者SiOx中的至少一种组成。由此形成的缓冲层2致密度和平整度比较好。
其中,第二绝缘层32设置于所述第一绝缘层31上,所述第二绝缘层32主要由SiNx或者SiOx中的至少一种组成。由此形成的缓冲层2致密度和平整度比较好。
其中,第三绝缘层33设置于所述第二绝缘层32上,所述第三绝缘层33主要由SiNx或者SiOx中的至少一种组成。由此形成的缓冲层2致密度和平整度比较好。
其中,在所述第一绝缘层31、第二绝缘层32以及第三绝缘33中还设置有栅极34、源极35和漏极36。当栅极34施加正电压时,在栅极34和半导体层之间会产生一个电场,在这个电场的作用下,形成了电子流道,使源极35和漏极36之间形成导通状态。在栅极34施加电压越大,吸引的电子越多,所以导通电流越大。在栅极34施加负电压时,源极35和漏极36之间形成关闭状态。
其中,像素隔离层和阳极6相互交错设置于所述聚合物平坦层4上。所述像素隔离层包括设置在弯折区的第一像素隔离层51和设置在平直区的第二像素隔离层52;所述第一像素隔离层52的厚度大于所述第二像素定义层51的厚度。具体的所述第二像素隔离层52的厚度范围为0.5-2μm,所述第一像素隔离51的厚度范围为0.6-4μm。当第二像素隔离层52的厚度小于0.5μm,所述第二像素隔离层52的均匀性及成膜性会有所降低;当第二像素隔离层52的厚度大于2μm,会造成材料的浪费。所述第一像素隔离51的厚度范围为0.6-4μm,超出此范围会造成加工难度,造成加工成本提高。通过增加弯折区的像素隔离层的厚度,可以减小柔性OLED显示装置在弯折时产生的机械应力,从而改善柔性OLED显示装置的弯折性能。
其中可以通过光刻技术在所述聚合物平坦层4上涂布一层像素隔离层,然后用黄光工序蚀刻掉位于平直区的像素隔离层但保留位于所述弯折区的像素隔离层;然后再在聚合物平坦层上进行一次像素隔离层的涂布,厚度为0.5-2μm,从而形成位于所述弯折区的第一像素隔离层51以及位于所述平直区的第二像素隔离层52,形成所述第一像素隔离51的厚度范围为0.6-4μm,然后用黄光工序蚀刻出全部的像素区域,填充形成阳极6。
其中光刻技术是指在光照作用下,借助光致抗蚀剂(又名光刻胶)将掩膜版上的图形转移到基片上的技术。其主要过程为:首先紫外光通过掩膜版照射到附有一层光刻胶薄膜的基片表面,引起曝光区域的光刻胶发生化学反应;再通过显影技术溶解去除曝光区域或未曝光区域的光刻胶(前者称正性光刻胶,后者称负性光刻胶),使掩膜版上的图形被复制到光刻胶薄膜上;最后利用刻蚀技术将图形转移到基片上。
其中黄光工序是通过对涂覆在玻璃表面的光敏性物质(又称为光刻胶或光阻),经曝光、显影后留下的部分对底层起保护作用,然后进行蚀刻脱膜并最终获得永久性图形的过程。
其中,所述有机层7包括:空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子阻挡层、发光层、电子传输层、电子注入层、阴极、腔长调节层以及LiF层。所述有机层7可以释放出光能,为柔性OLED显示装置提供光源。其中LiF层的引入可以较好地修饰有机层7表面,减少了阳极6和有机层7界面缺陷态的形成,增强了柔性OLED显示装置的稳定性。
其中,所述封装层8包括由无机材料构成的封装层或者由有机材料构成的封装层。所述无机材料为SiNx、SiOx、SiONx、SiCNx以及Al2O3中的至少一种。所述有机材料为亚克力,环氧树脂中的至少一种。由此形成的缓冲层2致密度和平整度比较好,从而可以更好地防止有机层7被水氧入侵,保护内部材料,延长柔性OLED显示装置的使用寿命。
其中,所述结构层9包括:偏光片、触控层以及封面。
如图2所示,本发明柔性有机发光显示装置的制备方法的流程图。其中包括:步骤S1:步骤S1:提供一设置柔性基底1;步骤S2:在所述柔性基底1上设置缓冲层2;步骤S3:在所述缓冲层2上设置绝缘层;步骤S4:在所述绝缘层上设置聚合物平坦层4;步骤S5:通过光刻技术在所述聚合物平坦层4上涂布一层像素隔离层,然后用黄光工序蚀刻掉位于平直区200的像素隔离层保留位于弯折区的像素隔离层,然后再在聚合物平坦层4上进行一次像素隔离层的涂布,位于所述弯折区的第一像素隔离层51以及位于所述平直区的第二像素隔离层52,然后用黄光工序蚀刻出全部的像素区域,填充形成阳极6;步骤S6:在所述第一像素隔离层51、所述第二像素隔离层52和所述阳极6上设置有机层7;步骤S7:在所述有机层7上设置封装层8;步骤S8:在所述封装层8上设置结构层9。
