Description

柔性有机发光二极管(OLED)显示基板及其制作方法 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤指一种柔性有机发光二极管(OLED)显示基板及其制作方法。
背景技术
智能手机现在已进入了全面屏(Full Screen Display)时代,各大手机厂商均以高屏占比作为各自品牌旗舰手机的主打卖点。对于面板厂商而言,提高屏占比势必要将非显示区域(即Pad Bending)反向弯折到显示区域的背面,这样才能最大限度的提高手机屏占比。因此,Pad Bending区域的弯折性能是全面屏生产厂商着力研究的问题。
现有Pad Bending区结构通常采用钛/铝/钛(Ti/Al/Ti)或者钼/铝/钼(Mo/Al/Mo)的金属线路结构,金属线路通过等离子溅射的工艺沉积到基底膜层表面,并在高温激冷状态下凝固形成脆性的非晶组织。该工艺不可避免地在金属线路表面形成了微裂纹,这些微裂纹在Pad Bending结构弯折过程中发生裂纹扩展,最终造成金属线路断线。Pad Bending的弯折断线问题是OLED全面屏模组段制程的重要难题,是造成Pad bending良品率降低的主要原因。此外,由于裂纹宽度细窄,一般显微镜下难于察觉,含有断线问题的产品也较难进行修复。

请参照图1及图2所示,本发明一种柔性有机发光二极管(OLED)显示基板,所述柔性OLED显示基板包括显示区1、非显示区2及连接显示区1和非显示区2的弯折容许区3。弯折容许区3设有相互间格的多个液态导电线路4,任一液态导电线路4包括设于所述弯折容许区3内的线路流道41及连接线路流道41两端的一金属线部42。线路流道41上设有封装层6以储存液态导电材料5,其中所述液态导电材料5封闭于所述线路流道41内。
在如图1及图2所示的实施例中,所述液态导电材料5例如为金属汞、饱和强电解质溶液或其他适合的流体。金属线部42的形状不限制,但基本要求为要被液态导电材料5覆盖或浸没,从而保证良好的导电性。在一些实施例中,金属线部42的材料可以使用选自铝(A1)、钛(Ti)、钼(Mo)、铜(Cu)中的两层或更多层形成,例如钛/铝/钛(Ti/Al/Ti)或钼/铝/钼(Mo/Al/Mo)等。
所述封装层6为有机高分子材料,涂布于整个线路流道41内层壁面及其垂直壁面上。有机高分子材料的成分例如是聚酰亚胺(Polyimide, PI)、聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯(polyethylene terephthalate, PET),或者是其他具有较高的水氧阻隔性能和低渗透性的有机高分子材料,以确保液态导电材料5不会从线路流道41中渗漏。
如图2至图4所示,金属线部42的一端伸入所述线路流道41内并与所述液态导电材料5接触形成电性导通,借此增大与液态导电材料5的接触面积;金属线部42的另一端分别电性连接显示区1和非显示区2,从而保证良好的电性导通与功能完好。任一液态导电线路4的线路流道41的断面形状例如为圆形、椭圆形或矩形,并不限制。
请一并参照图6A至图6D所示,所述线路流道41的结构分别为线型、双链条型、交错三链条型或交错四链条型。换句话说,图2、图3、图4及图6A的线路流道41为线型。图6B、图6C及图6D分别为双链条型、交错三链条型或交错四链条型。相互间隔的多链条的线路流道41能够消除单一流道堵塞隐患,保证弯折容许区3的电信号可以稳定传导至显示区1和非显示区2。具体实施方案可参考液态导电线路4的宽度要求,选择合适的线路流道41结构类型。
同样参照图5所示,本发明另提供一种柔性有机发光二极管(OLED)显示基板的制作方法,所述柔性OLED显示基板包括显示区、非显示区及连接显示区和非显示区的弯折容许区,包括以下步骤:
S10、在所述弯折容许区上形成相互间格的多个液态导电线路,任一所述液态导电线路包括形成所述弯折容许区内的线路流道及连接线路流道两端的一金属线部;S20、在所述线路流道内涂布一封装层;S30、在所述线路流道内注入一液态导电材料;及S40、在所述线路流道上进行封装处理以封闭所述液态导电材料。
在步骤S10中,采用激光蚀刻在弯折容许区上形成所述线路流道。具体而言,在柔性显示基板的基底层,采用激光蚀刻形成多个线路流道。在步骤S20中,对蚀刻出的各线路流道进行表面封装处理,涂布例如PI或PET等高分子封装材料,以形成所述封装层。
在步骤S30中,采用喷墨打印或蒸镀技术在所述线路流道内导入所述液态导电材料,再对线路流道的上部进行封装处理,使液态导电材料封闭于线路流道内。位于线路流道两端的金属线部也可以通过喷墨打印、蒸镀技术或其他适合工艺制作而成。在步骤S40后,进弯折容许区后段制程,进一步包括表面平整处理、涂布UV固话胶以及弯折等制程。如此制成本发明的柔性有机发光二极管(OLED)显示基板。
因此,本发明能够大幅提高弯折容许区制造的良品率,降低OLED全面屏在模组段的制造成本,进一步提升OLED全面屏生产商的利润率。再者,本发明由于液态导电材料的流动性,即使在弯折容许区弯折之后,并不产生应力,且封装层确保液态导电材料不会发生渗漏。相互间格的多链条的线路流道消除单一流道堵塞隐患,保证弯折容许区的电信号可以稳定传导至显示区和非显示区。
综上所述,虽然本发明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发明,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,所衍生的各种更动与变化,皆涵盖于本发明以权利要求界定的保护范围内。
