本公开实施方式提供了一种柔性显示面板,如图1-图5所示,该柔性显示面板为可拉伸的柔性显示面板,其可包括柔性基底1和多个像素岛S,各个像素岛S阵列分布于柔性基底1上。每个像素岛S具有显示区X和外围区Y,外围区Y围绕于显示区X外。每个像素岛S包括向远离柔性基底1的方向依次层叠的驱动层2、第一电极层3、发光层4和第二电极层5,其中:
第一电极层3包括位于显示区X的第一电极31和位于外围区Y的外围电极32,外围电极32围绕显示区X,且外围电极32远离柔性基底1的表面设有围绕显示区X的环形的阻挡结构33,阻挡结构33与显示区X间具有预设间距;发光层4正对于阻挡结构33的区域与发光层4位于该预设间距范围内的区域间断设置,即发光层4在该阻挡结构33内 侧断开。
本公开实施方式的柔性显示面板,由于发光层4正对于阻挡结构33的区域与位于预设间距范围内的区域间断设置,从而阻断水氧的侵蚀路径,防止水氧由外围区Y向显示区X侵蚀,有利于保证显示效果。同时,可避免在掩膜版上增设开孔,来形成断开的发光层4,从而降低掩膜版的设计和制造难度。
下面对本公开实施方式柔性显示面板的各部分进行详细说明:
如图2-图5所示,柔性基底1可为柔性的透明材料,例如PET(聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯)、PI(聚酰亚胺)等,使得柔性基底1可拉伸,当然,也可弯折。柔性基底1的形状和尺寸在不做特殊限定。举例而言,柔性基底1可包括衬底以及依次层叠与柔性基底1上的阻挡层和缓冲层。当然,柔性基底1也可以仅包括衬底,或者柔性基底1包括衬底,还包括阻挡层和缓冲层之一。
如图1-图5所示,多个像素岛S阵列分布于柔性基底1上,相邻的像素岛S间隔设置,举例而言,各个像素岛S可由多个纵横交错的沟槽100分隔而成。每个像素岛S均包括依次层叠于柔性基底1上的驱动层2、第一电极层3、发光层4和第二电极层5,对于一个像素岛S而言:
驱动层2设于柔性基底1一侧,且驱动层2可包括薄膜晶体管,该薄膜晶体管可为顶栅薄膜晶体管或者底栅薄膜晶体管,用于驱动发光层4发光。如图2-图5所示,以顶栅薄膜晶体管为例,驱动层2包括有源层21、栅绝缘层22、栅极23、介电层24、源漏层和驱动电极27,其中:
有源层21位于显示区X,其材料可以是多晶硅、非晶硅等,且有源层21可包括沟道区和位于沟道区两侧的两个不同掺杂类型的掺杂区。
栅绝缘层22可覆盖有源层21,栅绝缘层22的材料为氧化硅等绝缘材料。
栅极23设于栅绝缘层22远离柔性基底1的表面,且与有源层21正对,即栅极23在柔性基底1上的投影位于有源层21在柔性基底1的投影范围内,例如,栅极23在柔性基底1上的投影与有源层21的沟道区在柔性基底1的投影重合。
介电层2覆盖栅极23和栅绝缘层22,举例而言,介电层24可包括向远离柔性基底的方向依次层叠的层间绝缘层241和层间介质层242,层间绝缘层241和层间介质层242均为绝缘材料,但二者的材料可以不同。当然,介电层24也可为单层结构。
源漏层设于介电层24远离栅极层的表面,且源漏层包括源极25和漏极26,源极25和漏极26与有源层21正对并连接,例如,源极25和漏极26分别通过过孔与对应的有源层21的两个掺杂区连接。同时,漏极26与第一电极31通过过孔连接。
驱动电极27设于介电层24远离栅极23的表面,且位于外围区Y,且驱动电极27与外围区Y内的外围电极32连接。进一步的,源漏层和驱动电极27的材料相同,便于通过一次构图工艺形成。
此外,上述的驱动层2还可以包括平坦层28,平坦层28可为绝缘材料,且覆盖介电 层24、源漏层和驱动电极27,平坦层28远离柔性基底1的表面为平面,该平面为驱动层2远离柔性基底1的表面。
如图2-图5所示,第一电极层3设于驱动层2远离柔性基底1的表面,例如,第一电极层3设于平坦层28远离柔性基底1的表面。第一电极层3包括第一电极31和外围电极32,其中:
第一电极31位于显示区X,并与驱动层2的源漏层连接,例如,第一电极31通过平坦层28内的第一过孔与漏极26连接。外围电极32位于围绕该显示区X的外围区Y,外围电极32围绕第一电极31,且外围电极32与驱动电极27连接,例如,外围电极32通过平坦层28内的第二过孔与驱动电极27连接。
外围电极32远离柔性基底1的表面设有围绕显示区X的环形的阻挡结构33,且阻挡结构33与显示区X间具有预设间距,该预设间距为阻挡结构33与显示区X的边缘上靠近阻挡结构33的位置之间的距离,该预设间距大于0,使得阻挡结构33与显示区X不直接相接,而被外围电极32在预设间距范围内的区域隔开。
阻挡结构33可为设于外围电极32的凸棱或凹槽,在形成发光层4时,发光层4在凸棱的内壁或凹槽的侧壁处间断,使得发光层4在阻挡结构33的内侧断开。
在本公开柔性显示面板的第一实施方式中,如图2所示,阻挡结构33可为向远离柔性基底1的方向隆起的凸棱,该凸棱可为连续或间断的环状结构,其径向截面的形状可为矩形、梯形等,径向截面为垂直于柔性基底1的截面。凸棱的高度大于发光层4的厚度;发光层正对于阻挡结构33的区域为发光层4位于凸棱远离第一电极层3的表面的区域。
凸棱的内壁在第一电极层3远离柔性基底1的表面上呈一定的坡度,凸棱的高度可大于发光层4的厚度,从而使发光层4可在凸棱的内壁处断开,使得发光层4在该预设间距的范围内间断。例如,凸棱的内壁的径向截面与第一电极层3远离柔性基底1的表面的夹角不小于90°,且不大于100°。同时,发光层4的厚度小于1μm,凸棱的高度可大于1μm,进一步保证发光层4在凸棱的内壁断开。
凸棱可为导电或绝缘材质,且凸棱可为单层或沿远离柔性基底1的方向层叠的多层结构,举例而言,如图2所示,凸棱可为导电材质,且包括第一导电层331和第二导电层332,其中:
第一导电层331设于外围电极32远离柔性基底1的表面,且为了简化工艺,第一导电层331和外围电极32均为透明导电材质,例如ITO等材料,且第一导电层331和外围电极32可为一体式结构,从而可通过一次构图工艺形成。
当然,第一导电层331也可以是不同于第一电极层3的导电材料。
第二导电层332覆盖于第一导电层331远离柔性基底1的表面,并可为金属等导电材质。第二导电层332可为金属材料,在第一导电层331与外围电极32为透明导电材质的一体结构时,由于透明导电材料的成膜厚度有限,第二导电层332采用金属材料可进一步增大凸棱高度,有利于保证发光层4在凸棱的内壁处断开。
进一步的,如图2所示,凸棱还可包括保护层333,保护层333可覆盖于第二导电层332远离柔性基底1的表面,其材料可为导电或绝缘材料,对第二导电层332起到保护作用,例如保护层333可与第一导电层331均采用ITO等透明导电材料。
在本公开柔性显示面板的第二实施方式中,如图3和图4所示,阻挡结构33为向靠近柔性基底1的方向凹陷的凹槽,凹槽围绕显示区X,且凹槽的深度可大于发光层4的厚度,发光层4正对于阻挡结构33的区域为发光层4位于凹槽底面的区域,从而使发光层4可在凹槽的侧壁处断开,使得发光层4在凹槽的侧壁间断。外围电极32凹入凹槽内,但在凹槽内的部分与凹槽外的部分连接而未断开,以保证电路通畅。
每个像素岛S可包括多个像素,为了限定出各个像素,如图1-图5所示,像素岛S还包括像素界定层6,像素界定层6设于显示区X,且具有多个镂空的像素区,以限定出多个像素,各个像素均为阻挡结构33所围绕的范围内。
发光层4可覆盖于第一电极层3远离柔性基底1的表面,且发光层正对于阻挡结构33的区域与位于上述预设间距范围内的区域间断设置。以阻挡结构33为上文中的凸棱为例,如图2所示,发光层4的厚度小于凸棱的高度,因而由于凸棱的存在,在形成发光层4时,发光层4无法覆盖凸棱的内壁,而在凸棱的内壁处断开,即在阻挡结构33内侧间断,阻断了水氧侵蚀的路径。
发光层4可包含电致有机发光材料,其可采用蒸镀等工艺形成。举例而言,发光层4可包括依次层叠于第一电极层3上的空穴注入层、空穴传输层、有机发光层、电子传输层和电子注入层,具体发光原理在此不再详述。
第二电极层5可覆盖于发光层4远离柔性基底1的表面,且第二电极层5与外围电极32连接,在一实施方式中,如图2所示,阻挡结构33为上述的凸棱,第二电极层5位于预设间距范围内的区域与凸棱的第二导电层332接触,从而与凸棱的内壁接触。当然,如图5所示,在本公开柔性显示面板的第三实施方式中,若凸棱33为绝缘材质,则第二电极层5也可延伸至外围区Y,并通过过孔与外围电极32连接,该过孔位于预设间距的范围内,且位于发光层4的间断区域靠近显示区X的一侧。
第二电极层5可作为阴极,第一电极层3的第一电极31可作为阳极,可通过向第一电极31施加信号驱动发光层4发光。
在形成各个像素岛S时,各个像素岛S的第一电极层3属于通过一次构图工艺形成的导电层,可在该导电层开设有多个沟槽100,沟槽100凹陷至驱动层2内,例如,沟槽100沿深度方向露出介电层24,当然,沟槽100的深度也可以更大,例如露出柔性基底1。各个沟槽100可纵横交错分布,从而分割出多个像素岛S。
如图2-图5所示,沟槽100可开设于阻挡结构33形成后,发光层4形成前,因而,在形成发光层4和第二电极层5后,发光层4和第二电极层5可层叠于沟槽100的底面。
此外,如图2-图5所示,本公开实施方式的柔性显示面板还可包括封装层7,封装层7同时覆盖各个像素岛S的第二电极层5远离柔性基底1的表面,且延伸至沟槽100内, 并覆盖沟槽100的内表面,从而通过封装层7起到隔离和保护作用,且由于发光层4在预设间距范围内的区域与正对于阻挡结构33的区域间断设置,已经阻断了水氧侵蚀的路径,即便沟槽100内的封装层7因为拉伸而破裂时,仍可保证显示效果。封装层7可为单层或多层结构,在此不做特殊限定。
本公开实施方式还提供一种柔性显示面板的制造方法,该柔性显示面板包括柔性基底和阵列分布于柔性基底上的多个像素岛,各像素岛具有显示区和围绕显示区的外围区,该柔性显示面板的具体结构可参考上述任意实施方式的柔性显示面板。
如图6所示,本公开实施方式的制造方法包括:
步骤S110、在柔性基底的一侧形成各所述像素岛的驱动层;
步骤S120、在各所述驱动层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的第一电极层,所述第一电极层包括位于所述显示区的第一电极和位于所述外围区的外围电极,所述外围电极围绕所述显示区;
步骤S130、在各所述外围电极远离所述柔性基底的表面形成围绕所述显示区的阻挡结构,所述阻挡结构与所述显示区间具有预设间距;
步骤S140、在各所述第一电极层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的发光层,所述发光层正对于所述阻挡结构的区域与位于所述预设间距范围内的区域间断设置;
步骤S150、在各所述发光层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的第二电极层。
本公开实施方式的制造方法,如图1-图5所示,由于发光层4正对于阻挡结构33的区域与位于预设间距范围内的区域间断设置,即发光层4在阻挡结构33内侧断开,从而阻断水氧的侵蚀路径,防止水氧由外围区Y向显示区X侵蚀,有利于保证显示效果。同时,可避免在掩膜版上增设开孔,来形成断开的发光层,从而降低掩膜版的设计和制造难度。
下面对本公开实施方式制造方法的各步骤进行详细说明:
在步骤S110中,在柔性基底的一侧形成各所述像素岛的驱动层。
如图2和图8所示,柔性基底1可为柔性的透明材料,例如PET(聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯)、PI(聚酰亚胺)等,使得柔性基底1可拉伸,当然,也可弯折。柔性基底1的形状和尺寸在不做特殊限定。举例而言,柔性基底1可包括衬底以及依次层叠于柔性基底1上的阻挡层和缓冲层。当然,柔性基底1也可以仅包括衬底,或者柔性基底1包括衬底,还包括阻挡层和缓冲层之一。
如图2和图8所示,驱动层2可包括薄膜晶体管,该薄膜晶体管可为顶栅薄膜晶体管或者底栅薄膜晶体管,薄膜晶体管用于驱动发光层4发光。以顶栅薄膜晶体管为例,驱动层2包括有源层21、栅绝缘层22、栅极23、介电层24、源漏层和驱动电极27,在柔性基底1的一侧形成各像素岛S的驱动层2,即步骤S110,包括步骤S1110-步骤S1160,其中:
步骤S1110、在所述柔性基底一侧形成各所述像素岛的有源层。
步骤S1120、形成覆盖各所述有源层的栅绝缘层;
步骤S1130、在所述栅绝缘层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的栅极;
步骤S1140、形成覆盖各所述栅极和所述栅绝缘层的介电层。
步骤S1150、在所述介电层远离所述栅极的表面形成各所述像素岛的源漏层,所述源漏层包括与所述有源层连接的源极和漏极,且所述漏极与第一电极通过过孔连接。
步骤S1160、在所述介电层远离所述栅极的表面形成驱动电极,所述驱动电极位于所述外围区,且与所述外围电极连接。
如图2-图5和图8所示,柔性基底1和驱动层2的结构的细节已在上文柔性显示面板的实施方式中进行了说明,在此不再赘述。
在步骤S120中,在各所述驱动层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成个所述像素岛的第一电极层,所述第一电极层包括位于所述显示区的第一电极和位于所述外围区的外围电极,所述外围电极围绕所述显示区。
如图9所示,可通过掩膜工艺在柔性基底1的表面形成第一电极层3,例如,可在柔性基底1的表面沉积电极金属层,通过掩膜工艺对电极金属层进行图案化,得到第一电极层3。第一电极层3的结构可参考上文柔性显示面板的实施方式中的第一电极层3,在此不再赘述。
在步骤S130中,在各所述外围电极远离所述柔性基底的表面形成围绕所述显示区的阻挡结构,所述阻挡结构与所述显示区间具有预设间距。
如图2-图5所示,阻挡结构33可为设于外围电极32的环形的凸棱或凹槽,在形成发光层4时,发光层4在凸棱的内壁或凹槽的内壁处断开,使得发光层4在该阻挡结构33内侧断开。在一实施方式中,如图2所示,阻挡结构33为导电材质的凸棱,凸棱可为单层或沿远离柔性基底1的方向层叠的多层结构,如图7所示,步骤S130包括步骤S1310和步骤S1320,其中:
步骤S1310、在所述外围电极远离所述柔性基底的表面形成围绕所述显示区的第一导电层。
如图9所示,第一导电层331设于外围电极32远离柔性基底1的表面,且为了简化工艺,第一导电层331和外围电极32均为相同的透明导电材质。可通过对外围电极32的局部区域进行刻蚀得到第一导电层311,外围电极32的未被刻蚀的区域即为第一导电层331。当然,第一导电层331也可以是不同于外围电极32的导电材料。
步骤S1320、在所述第一导电层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成第二导电层,所述第二电极层位于所述预设间距范围内的区域与所述第二导电层的内壁接触。
如图10所示,第二导电层332覆盖于第一导电层331远离柔性基底1的表面,并可为金属等导电材质。第二导电层332可为金属材料,在第一导电层331与外围电极32为透明导电材质的一体结构时,由于透明导电材料的成膜厚度有限,第二导电层332采用金 属材料可进一步增大凸棱高度,有利于保证发光层4在凸棱的内壁处断开。
此外,如图7所示,步骤S130还可包括:
步骤S1330、在所述第二导电层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成保护层。
如图11所示,保护层333的材料可为导电或绝缘材料,对第二导电层332起到保护作用,例如保护层333可与第一导电层331均采用ITO等透明导电材料。
步骤S140、在各所述第一电极层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的发光层,所述发光层正对于所述阻挡结构的区域与位于所述预设间距范围内的区域间断设置。
如图13所示,发光层4可包括电致有机发光材料,其可通过蒸镀等工艺形成,在形成过程中,由于阻挡结构33的存在,可使发光层4在预设间距范围内间断,从而阻断水氧侵蚀的路径。举例而言,阻挡结构33为上文中的凸棱或凹槽,使得外围电极32上存在高度差,发光层4因无法形成于凸棱的内壁或凹槽的侧壁而断开。
步骤S150、在各所述发光层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的第二电极层。
如图13所示,第二电极层5可覆盖于发光层4远离柔性基底1的表面,且第二电极层5与外围电极32连接,例如,第二电极层5位于上述预设间距范围内的区域与凸棱的第二导电层332接触,即与凸棱的内壁接触,从而与外围电极32连接。当然,如图5所示,若凸棱为绝缘材质,则第二电极层5也可延伸至外围区Y,并通过过孔与外围电极32连接,该过孔位于预设间距的范围内,且位于发光层4的间断区域靠近显示区X的一侧。
第二电极层5可作为阴极,第一电极层3的第一电极31可作为阳极,可通过向第一电极31施加信号驱动发光层4发光。
在步骤S130后,步骤S140前,本公开实施方式的制造方法还可包括:
步骤S160、在所述第一电极层开设有多个凹陷至所述驱动层内的沟槽,以划分出各所述像素岛。
如图12所示,可通过湿法或干法刻蚀工艺形成沟槽100,且沟槽100凹陷至驱动层2内,例如,沟槽100沿深度方向露出介电层224,当然,沟槽100的深度也可以更大,例如露出柔性基底1。各个沟槽100可纵横交错分布,从而分割出多个像素岛S。
沟槽100可开设于第一电极层3形成后,发光层4形成前,因而,在形成各个像素岛S的发光层4和第二电极层5后,发光层4和第二电极层5可层叠于沟槽100的底面。
为了限定出各个像素,在步骤S130后,在步骤S140前,本公开实施方式的制造方法还可包括:
步骤S170、在各所述第一电极远离柔性基底的表面形成各所述像素岛的像素界定层,所述像素界定层具有多个镂空的像素区。
步骤S170可先于步骤S160进行。
本公开实施方式的制造方法还可包括:
步骤S180、在各所述第二电极层远离所述柔性基底的表面形成封装层。
如图2-图5所示,封装层7覆盖第二电极层5远离柔性基底1的表面,且延伸至沟槽100内,并覆盖沟槽100的内表面,从而通过封装层7起到隔离和保护作用,且由于发光层4在预设间距范围内间断设置,已经阻断了水氧侵蚀的路径,即便沟槽100内的封装层7因为拉伸而破裂时,仍可保证显示效果。封装层7可为单层或多层结构,在此不做特殊限定。
此外,尽管在附图中以特定顺序描述了本公开中方法的各个步骤,但是,这并非要求或者暗示必须按照该特定顺序来执行这些步骤,或是必须执行全部所示的步骤才能实现期望的结果。附加的或备选的,可以省略某些步骤,将多个步骤合并为一个步骤执行,以及/或者将一个步骤分解为多个步骤执行等。
本公开实施方式还提供一种显示装置,该显示装置可包括上述任意实施方式的柔性显示面板。该显示装置可用于手机、手表、平板电脑等电子设备,在此不再一一列举。同时,该显示装置的有益效果可参考上述实施方式中柔性显示面板的有益效果,在此不再详述。
本公开的显示装置、柔性显示面板及其制造方法,由于每个像素岛的外围电极远离柔性基底的表面设有围绕显示区的阻挡结构,阻挡结构与显示区间具有预设间距,发光层正对于阻挡结构的区域与位于预设间距范围内的区域间断设置,即发光层在阻挡结构内侧断开,从而阻断水氧的侵蚀路径,防止水氧由外围区向显示区侵蚀,有利于保证显示效果。同时,可避免在掩膜版上增设开孔,来形成断开的发光层,从而降低掩膜版的设计和制造难度。
