Description

一种显示面板及其终端器件 技术领域
本发明涉及发光显示技术领域,尤其是,其中的一种显示面板及其应用的终端器件。
背景技术
已知,随着技术的不断进步,触屏手机已成为人们日常生活必不可少的一个工具。但考虑到操作的便利性,使得手机的屏幕不能无限增大,相反,有时还需限制在一定尺寸内,因此,这就需要在有限的尺寸范围内,进可能的增加其显示范围。即,业界常说的“窄边框”设计,以便实现手机更大的屏占比。
其中,业界常见的做法为将显示屏的边框(border)区减小,其中针对减小下边框,最有效的办法是pad bending技术,即将显示屏的一部分扇形区(Fanout)走线区及驱动IC及FPC一起弯折到屏幕的背面进行绑定(bonding),如此可有效减小下边框区域的长度。
但由于显示屏的上边框区域处一般会放置手机的前置摄像头,如此,为保证摄像头的拍摄需求,无法继续减小上边框的范围,而只能限制摄像头的采光区域范围。对此,业界采用“刘海”或“水滴”屏来实现border的缩减化,从而增加屏占比。
但是,无论哪种设计,所述显示屏下设置的摄像头都是在所述显示屏的非显示区域内,这就使得所述显示屏的有效显示范围内,始终存在一处非显示区域。为了实现真正的全面屏,提高客户的视觉感受,需要将屏下设置的摄像头结合在显示屏的显示区域中,即摄像时可以正常拍照,且透光率较高,而在所述摄像头不摄像时,其上的显示屏区域仍可以进行正常的图像显示。
请参阅图1所示,其图示了一种业界常见的OLED显示面板的显示区域的结构。如图中所示,所述显示面板的显示区(AA区)是由PI(聚酰亚胺)层101’、器件阵列(array)层102’、有机发光(EL)层103’、封装(TFE)层104’、触控(DOT)层105’以及模组(MOD)器件层106’构成,以上所有结构中对光的透过率影响最大的膜层为所述PI层、器件阵列层中的金属膜层、有机发光层构成中的阴极(cathode)膜层以及MOD器件中的各段偏光片(POL)。
因此,若能同时提高PI层、器件阵列层中的金属膜层以及有机发光层中的阴极膜层的穿透率并且取消偏光片的使用,则可以有效提高其显示区域的整体透过率,同时精简制程,更有助于量产化。
技术问题
本发明的一个方面是提供一种显示面板,其能够进行整体上的全屏显示,而不会存在明显的非显示区域,且透过率高。
技术解决方案

进一步的,在不同实施方式中,其中所述衬底层的第二部对于整体可见光波段能够达到的透过率大于或是等于所述衬底层的第一部对于整体可见光波段能够达到的透过率。
进一步的,在不同实施方式中,其中所述衬底层的第二部对于可见光中的蓝紫光波段的透过率为50%或以上。

进一步的,在不同实施方式中,其中所述衬底层第一部采用第一PI材料构成,所述第二部采用第二PI材料构成,其中所述第一部和第二部相接的位置处,所述第一材料和所述第二材料重叠设置。
具体的,所述第一PI材料可以是业界常用的淡黄色PI材料,而所述第二PI材料则为本发明揭示的创新技术方案,其相对于所述常用的淡黄色PI材料,其优选为一种透明状PI材料。
进一步的,在不同实施方式中,其中所述第一PI材料不同于所述第二PI材料。

有益效果
本发明涉及的一种显示面板,其在其衬底层的特定区域,例如摄像头区域,采用本发明涉及的透明PI材料构成,使得该区域的透光性获得了极大改善,从而使得其下方设置的摄像头能够获得足够的光线进行正常的拍摄操作;同时降低该区域内的器件阵列层中的像素阵列密度,使得该区域仍具有显示功能,如此,则使得本发明涉及的所述显示面板,具有整体上的全部有效显示区域,而不存在为保持下方摄像头正常的拍摄功能而妥协设置的一处非显示区域,从而在一定程度上实现了市场上高度需求的“全面屏”的显示效果。这一“全面屏”的显示效果,明显会提升其所在终端器件使用顾客的满意度,因此,可以认为本发明涉及的所述显示面板是面板行业的发展趋势。
进一步的,在摄像头区域的所述单元阵列层中的像素定义层采用本发明涉及的新型功能材料黑色有机光阻取代传统有机光阻,由于黑色光阻材料其对于光线的吸收性能,使得其能够起到一定的遮挡作用,从而有效改善该区域摄像头位置处所述器件阵列层中的金属走线对入射光线的衍射以及反光的现象,同时还能改善其发光区域中不同像素之间的漏光现象。
更为重要的是,由于引入的所述黑色光阻材料的遮光效能,若是所述显示面板的整体显示区域的像素定义层均采用本发明涉及的所述光阻材料,使得本发明涉及的所述显示面板的制程不再需要后续的偏光片这道制程。如此,精简了本发明涉及的显示面板的制程工艺。
另外,本发明涉及的所述显示面板,也不在需要采用镭射切割的方式通过现有技术中常见的异形屏来实现屏下摄像头的正常拍摄操作,从而避免了显示屏在镭射过程中微粒(particle)增加以及断裂(crack)风险,同时不会增加设备成本,更有助于将来的量产化。

本发明的实施方式
以下将结合附图和实施例,对本发明涉及的一种显示面板及其终端器件的技术方案作进一步的详细描述。
请参阅图2所示,本发明的一个实施方式提供了一种显示面板,其定义有第一显示区域11和第二显示区域12。其中所述第一显示区域11例如可以是一般所说的显示面板中的AA显示区域,而所述第二显示区域12可以是一般所说的对应屏下摄像头的显示面板区域。
如图中所示,其中所述第一显示区域是将所述第二显示区域4面完全包裹。而在其他实施方式中,所述第一显示区域也可以是将所述第二显示区域3面包裹,或是两者之间平行相接设置,具体可随实际需要而定,并无限定。另外,在其他实施方式中,所述显示面板上设置的第一显示区域11和第二显示区域12的数量,也可随需要而定,并无限定。
进一步的,所述显示面板包括玻璃层100、衬底层101和其他功能层,如图3所示,其仅图示了其中的玻璃层100和衬底层101。其中所述衬底层101包括位置对应于所述第一显示区域11的第一部111和位置对应于所述第二显示区域12的第二部121。
其中所述第一部111采用第一PI材料构成,其可以是业界常用的淡黄色PI材料,其中其对于可见光的蓝紫光段的透过率大致为30%。而所述第二部121采用第二PI材料构成,其为一种透明的PI材料,其对于可见光的整体透过率为80%或以上,其中对于可见光的蓝紫光段的透过率为50%或以上。
其中所述衬底层101的第二部121采用透明的PI材料构成,可以在一定程度上有效提高其对于入射光的穿透率,从而使得对应设置在其下方感光器件,例如,摄像头,或是其他影像传感器,可以获得足够的光线,以保证其能正常的实施拍摄功能。
而在其他实施方式中,其中所述衬底层101的第一部111也可以是采用所述第二PI材料构成,但不限于。
进一步的,请参阅图4所示,其中所述衬底层101下设置的其他功能层包括器件阵列层102、有机发光(EL)层103、封装(TFE)层104、触控(DOT)层105以及模组(MOD)器件层106。
其中所述器件阵列层102中设置有像素阵列,其中所述像素阵列包括对应设置在所述第一显示区域11的第一像素阵列和对应设置在所述第二显示区域的第二像素阵列,其中在相同单位面积下所述第一像素阵列的像素阵列密度大于所述第二像素阵列的像素阵列密度。其中所述单位面积可以是厘米单位级,也可以是毫米单位级,具体可随需要而定,并无限定。
其中所述第一像素阵列的像素阵列密度是第二像素阵列的像素阵列密度的1~10倍。例如,在一个实施方式中,其中在同样单位面积下所述第一像素阵列为10X10的像素阵列,而所述第二像素阵列为4X4的像素阵列。
具体来讲,设每个像素尺寸为63um*63um,所述第一像素阵列在单位平方毫米内设置的像素数量为252个,而所述第二像素阵列在同样的单位平方毫米内设置的像素阵列密度可以为所述第一像素阵列的阵列密度的1/4、1/9、1/16、1/25、1/36等等,具体可随实际需要而定,并无限定。
本发明将位置对应于所述第二显示区域12的像素阵列密度降低,采用稀疏的阵列排布,如此,可在保留所述第二显示区域12显示功能的同时,还能起到不影响透光的作用,进而不会因保留显示功能而影响其下方设置的感光器件的正常功能实施。
进一步的,其中所述第二显示区域12中的相邻像素之间的区域设置有透光通道。其中降低所述第二显示区域12内的像素阵列密度的目的,即为增加像素之间的空间,以便使得更多的光能从像素之间的区域入射到其下方的影像传感单元中,因此,所述第二显示区域12内相邻像素之间的区域要能尽量透光,进而可将两像素之间的区域定义为所述透光通道。进一步的,对于所述透光通道内的各膜层结构所采用的材料而言,其也尽量选用透光率高的材料构成。例如,例如,该区域内不适合设置由具有高光密度系数材料构成的像素定义层。
进一步的,其中所述单元阵列层102中包括像素定义层1022,其中所述像素定义层1022采用的光阻材料能够遮住其所在单元阵列层102中的金属走线层对入射光的衍射以及反光。例如,所述像素定义层1022采用的是一种黑色光阻材料,其光密度OD(Optical Density;OD=-lgT,其中T为穿透率;)值大于0.2,优选值在0.3或以上。
这一光阻材料的变更,从技术效果方面来讲,以所述第二显示区域为例而言,其可以有效改善其位置处的所述器件阵列层102中的金属膜层衍射以及反光的现象,同时还可以改善发光区域不同像素之间的漏光现象。更为重要的是,若是所述显示面板的整体显示区域的像素定义层均采用本发明涉及的所述光阻材料,其可以去除后续的POL 这道制程,在一定程度上简化了所述显示面板的制程工艺。
进一步的,本发明的又一实施方式提供了一种终端器件,其包括本体,其中所述本体上设置有感光器件,例如,摄像头。所述本体上还设置有本发明涉及的所述显示面板,其中所述感光器件对应设置在所述显示面板的第二显示区域下。
其中所述终端器件可以是任何需要设置显示面板以及在所述显示面板下设置感光器件的智能终端器件。例如,手机、平板、电脑等等。
本发明涉及的一种显示面板,其在其衬底层特定区域,例如,摄像头区域,采用本发明涉及的透明PI材料构成,使得该区域的透光性获得了极大改善,从而使得其下方设置的摄像头能够获得足够的光线进行正常的拍摄操作;同时降低该区域内的器件阵列层中的像素阵列密度,使得该区域仍具有显示功能,如此,则使得本发明涉及的所述显示面板,具有整体上的有效显示区域,而不存在为保持下方摄像头正常的拍摄功能而妥协设置的一处非显示区域,从而在一定程度上实现了市场上高度需求的“全面屏”的显示效果。这一“全面屏”的显示效果,明显会提升其所在终端器件使用顾客的满意度,因此,可以认为本发明涉及的所述显示面板是面板行业的发展趋势。
进一步的,在摄像头区域的所述单元阵列层中的像素定义层采用本发明涉及的新型功能材料黑色有机光阻取代传统有机光阻,由于黑色光阻材料其对于光线的吸收性能,使得其能够起到一定的遮挡作用,从而有效改善该区域摄像头位置处所述器件阵列层中的金属走线对入射光线的衍射以及反光的现象,同时还能改善其发光区域中不同像素之间的漏光现象。
更为重要的是,由于引入的所述黑色光阻材料的遮光效能,若是所述显示面板的整体显示区域的像素定义层均采用本发明涉及的所述光阻材料,使得本发明涉及的所述显示面板的制程不再需要后续的POL这道制程。如此,精简了本发明涉及的显示面板的制程工艺。
另外,本发明涉及的所述显示面板,也不在需要采用镭射切割的方式通过现有技术中常见的异形屏来实现屏下摄像头的正常拍摄操作,从而避免了显示屏在镭射过程中微粒增加以及断裂风险,同时又不会增加设备成本,更有助于将来的量产化。
本发明的技术范围不仅仅局限于上述说明中的内容,本领域技术人员可以在不脱离本发明技术思想的前提下,对上述实施例进行多种变形和修改,而这些变形和修改均应当属于本发明的范围内。
