除非另有定义,本文所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本申请的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同。若本申请实施例中有涉及“第一”、“第二”等的描述,则该“第一”、“第二”等的描述仅用于描述目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示其相对重要性或者隐含指明所指示的技术特征的数量。由此,限定有“第一”、“第二”的特征可以明示或者隐含地包括至少一个该特征。另外,各个实施例之间的技术方案可以相互结合,但是必须是以本领域普通技术人员能够实现为基础,当技术方案的结合出现相互矛盾或无法实现时应当认为这种技术方案的结合不存在,也不在本申请要求的保护范围之内。
请参阅图1,本申请一实施例提供的一种柔性显示屏100,所述柔性显示屏100包括基底20、像素单元40、防裂部60及薄膜封装层80。
所述基底20设置有像素单元40,所述像素单元40的数量可根据实际情况任意设置为多个,多个所述像素单元40可呈阵列式排布。在一些实施例中,所述像素单元40也可被代替为驱动单元、触控单元及显示单元等等,所述基底20上设置的各种类型的单元或模块只要满足对水汽和氧气敏感,需要进行封装保护即可。
所述防裂部60围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上,所述防裂部60可间隔预设距离围绕所述像素单元40设置,所述防裂部60也可直接贴附于所述像素单元40并围绕所述像素单元40设置。例如,当所述防裂部60为四方体,可设置所述防裂部60为中空圆柱体或者中空四方体,且所述中空圆柱体或者中空四方体防裂部间隔预设距离(10-20um)围绕所述四方体像素单元设置于所述基底20上。在一些实施例中,所述防裂部60的形状和位置可根据需要任意设置,只需满足所述防裂部60围绕所述像素单元40并形成于 所述基底20上即可。
所述防裂部60与所述像素单元40形成有封装区域10,当所述防裂部60间隔预设距离围绕所述像素单元40设置时,所述封装区域10包括所述防裂部60与所述像素单元40之间的间隔区域,也包括所述像素单元40远离所述基底20的一面正对的上方区域,所述间隔区域和所述上方区域共同形成为所述封装区域10。当所述防裂部60直接贴附于所述像素单元40并围绕所述像素单元40设置时,所述封装区域10仅为所述像素单元40远离所述基底20的一面正对的上方区域。
所述薄膜封装层80沉积于所述封装区域10内,并且,所述防裂部60用于沉积时,阻隔所述薄膜封装层80的沉积材料扩散出所述封装区域10。
在未设置所述防裂部60时,采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述薄膜封装层80的沉积材料时,掩膜版与所述像素单元40之间必然存在一定距离,在沉积过程中不可避免的会产生的扩散区域,所述扩散区域可延伸数百μm,且所述扩散区域比所需正常的薄膜封装层80厚度小80%以上,由于扩散区域的厚度较薄,所述扩散区域容易成为裂纹发源处,当弯折所述柔性显示屏100时,所述裂纹发源处容易产生裂纹,所述裂纹从裂纹发源处开始直至扩展到整个屏幕,对所述柔性显示屏100造成不可逆的损害,影响产品的使用。
在本实施例中,通过设置所述防裂部60,优选地,所述防裂部60的高度大于所述像素单元40的高度或厚度,当所述防裂部60的高度大于所述像素单元40的高度或厚度时,采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述薄膜封装层80的沉积材料时,将掩膜版贴附于所述防裂部60远离基底20的一面,然后将沉积材料沉积到所述封装区域10内,由于防裂部60的阻隔作用,从而可以保证所述沉积材料只沉积到所述封装区域10内,而避免所述沉积材料扩散出所述封装区域10,因此可以消除采用掩膜版工艺而产生的扩散区域,从而消除了裂纹发源处,当弯折所述柔性显示屏100时,不易产生裂纹,对所述柔性显示屏100起到了良好的保护作用,提高了所述柔性显示屏100的使用性能。
同时,在未设置所述防裂部60时,采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述薄膜封装层80的沉积材料时,在沉积过程中形成的扩散区域可延伸数百μm,甚至可达毫米级别,不利于窄边框设计,在本实施例中通过设置所述防裂部60消除了所述扩散区域,从而可根据需要适当减小边框宽度,实现窄边框设计。
所述沉积所述薄膜封装层80的沉积材料时,可采用等离子体增强化学气相沉积(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称PECVD)方式、低压化学气相沉积方式(Low Pressure Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称LPCVD)、大气压化学气相沉积(ASmospheric Pressure Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称APCVD)方式或电子回旋谐振化学气相沉积(ElecSron CycloSron Resonance Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称ECR-CVD)方式或溅射方式。在一些实施例中,所述沉积方式可根据需要进行选择,只要所述沉积方式需要采用掩膜版即可。
所述基底20的材质可为聚酰亚胺、聚酰亚胺、聚碳酸酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚醚砜基板等有机聚合物中的一种。在一些实施例中,所述基底20可根据需要采用其他不同的柔性材料,例如:热塑性半结晶聚合物,如PET、PEN和PEEK,其具有良好的透明度、较低的热膨胀系数、良好的阻水阻氧能力,而且价格比较便宜;非结晶热塑性聚合物,如PC、PES,其由溶剂注造或熔融注塑而成,具有较好的光学透明度和较高的玻璃化转变温度,当PC、PES薄膜的厚度达到0.1mm时,在可见光范围内的透过率可以达到85%以上。
请参阅图2,在一些实施例中,所述柔性显示屏100还包括缓冲层50,所述缓冲层50设置于所述基底20靠近所封装薄膜层80的一面,所述缓冲层50可有效的阻隔水氧对所述像素单元40的侵蚀。所述缓冲层50可为氮化硅、氧化硅、氮氧化硅、氧化铝等中的单层或叠层。
所述像素单元40包括驱动电路、像素电极、有机发光元件、公共电极、栅极线和数据线等,所述驱动电路包括位于岛状部上的薄膜晶体管,所述薄膜晶体管的漏极与所述像素电极相连,所述像素电极与所述有机发光元件的一侧电连接,所述有机发光元件相对的另一侧与所述公共电极电连接。栅极线向驱动电路传输扫描信号、数据线向驱动电路传输数据信号后,驱动电路通过导通的薄膜晶体管和像素电极向有机发光元件提供电流,以使有机发光元件发光、进行画面的显示。
在本实施例中,所述像素单元40与所述基底20之间采用非导电胶(NCA)技术封装,所述非导电胶是不含导电颗粒的材料,可采用非导电胶(NCP)和非导电膜(NCF)两种类型,在本实施例中,所述非导电胶采用的是非导电膜,所述非导电膜被贴合于所述像素单元40与所述基底20之间,加压使 像素单元40凸点穿透其正下方的所述非导电膜而与对应的基底20线路直接接触,由此实现电连接。所述非导电膜受热固化,其收缩可以固定像素单元40凸点和印制线间的直接接触。所述非导电膜在一定温度下的固化收缩不仅能保证了像素单元40和基底20之间稳定的电连接,还提供了一定的机械连接,从这两方面保证了封装体良好的键合性能。
所述防裂部60的材质可为无机材料,例如氮化硅、氮化铝、氮化锆、氮化钛、氮化钽、氧化钛、氮氧化铝、氮氧化硅中的一种或多种。所述防裂部60的材质也可为有机材料,例如环氧树脂、丙烯醛基树脂、聚酰亚胺树脂、聚萘二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯中的一种或多种。
所述薄膜封装层80用于封装所述像素单元40,阻隔外界水氧对所述像素单元40的侵蚀。例如,当所述像素单元40为OLED像素单元40时,所述像素单元40内的发光材料通常为聚合物或有机小分子,阴极材料通常为功函数较低的活泼金属如镁铝等,这些发光材料与阴极材料对水汽和氧气非常敏感,水氧的渗透会大大缩减像素单元40的寿命。因此需要对所述像素单元40进行封装以避免外界水氧对所述像素单元40的侵蚀。
所述薄膜封装层80包括若干阻隔层82和若干消陷层84,若干所述阻隔层82和若干所述消陷层84依次交替形成于所述沉积区域内,且其中一个所述阻隔层82或其中一个所述消陷层84形成于所述像素单元40上。
所述阻隔层82用于阻隔水氧。所述阻隔层82材质可以是氮化硅、氮化铝、氮化锆、氮化钛、氮化钽、氧化钛、氮氧化铝、氮氧化硅中的一种或多种。
但是在制备所述阻隔层82的过程中会产生一些针孔或者异物缺陷,从而设置所述消陷层84用于覆盖所述阻隔层82的缺陷,实现平坦化,并且可以释放阻隔层82之间的应力,实现柔性封装。
所述消陷层84的材质可以是环氧树脂、丙烯醛基树脂、聚酰亚胺树脂、聚萘二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯中的一种或多种。
当采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84时,由于所述防裂部60围绕所述像素单元40设置,采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84时,将掩膜版贴附于所述防裂部60远离基底20的一面,从而可以保证所述沉积材料只沉积到所述封装区域10内,并可使每个所述阻隔 层82和/或每个所述消陷层84的侧面均贴附于所述防裂部60靠近所述像素单元40的侧面。因此可以消除采用掩膜版工艺而产生的扩散区域,从而消除了裂纹发源处,当弯折所述柔性显示屏100时,不易产生裂纹,对所述柔性显示屏100起到了良好的保护作用,提高了所述柔性显示屏100的使用性能。
同时,由于所述防裂部60围绕所述像素单元40设置,采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84时,将掩膜版贴附于所述防裂部60远离基底20的一面,并使所述掩膜版上的开孔正对于所述沉积区域,在沉积时,可使所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84在所述封装区域10内任意位置对应的厚度皆相同。因此可以消除采用掩膜版工艺而产生的扩散区域,从而消除了裂纹发源处,当弯折所述柔性显示屏100时,不易产生裂纹,对所述柔性显示屏100起到了良好的保护作用,提高了所述柔性显示屏100的使用性能。
请一并参阅图2和图3,在一些实施例中,所述柔性显示屏100还包括吸湿部70,所述吸湿部70形成于所述薄膜封装层80和所述防裂部60之间。具体地,可在所述薄膜封装层80或所述防裂部60上开设凹槽30或者通槽,所述吸湿部70形成于所述凹槽30或所述通槽内,所述吸湿部70也可层叠于所述薄膜封装层80和所述防裂部60之间。
所述吸湿部70内部均匀分散有吸湿性纳米颗粒,所述吸湿性纳米颗粒的材料为金属氧化物,如氧化钙、氧化钡等,所述吸湿性纳米颗粒的粒径范围为4-6微米。由于所述吸湿部70内部具有吸湿性的纳米颗粒,因此可以在所述薄膜封装层80的基础上,进一步地有效阻挡外界环境的水氧对所述像素单元40两侧区域的侵蚀,提高了像素单元40的使用寿命和稳定性。
为了能够在不增加制程工艺的前提下,使所述吸湿部70形成于所述薄膜封装层80和所述防裂部60之间,可在所述防裂部60和所述薄膜封装层80之间形成凹槽30,进而通过掩膜版工艺,使所述吸湿部70形成于所述凹槽30内。
具体地,由于所述像素单元40具有一定的厚度或高度,当采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84时,可使所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84在所述封装区域10内任意位置对应的厚度皆相同,由于所述阻隔层82和/或所述消陷层84在所述封装区域10内任意位置对应的厚度皆相同,可使所述封装薄膜层的截面呈凸状,进而所述封装薄膜层的凸出部和所述防 裂部60之间形成有凹槽30,所述吸湿部70形成于所述凹槽30内。优选地,所述吸湿部70远离所述基底20的表面与所述薄膜封装层80远离所述基底20的表面平齐。
为了更好的使所述吸湿部70有效阻挡外界环境的水氧对所述像素单元40两侧区域的侵蚀,可使所述吸湿部70远离所述防裂部60的侧面贴附于所述薄膜封装层80的侧面。
请参阅图4,在一些实施例中,所述柔性显示屏100还包括阻隔结构90,所述阻隔结构90围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上,且所述阻隔结构90贴附于所述防裂部60远离所述像素单元40的侧面。
所述阻隔结构90包括若干阻水部92和若干阻裂部94,若干所述阻水部92和若干所述阻裂部94依次交替围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上。其中一个所述阻水部92或其中一个所述阻裂部94的侧面贴附于所述防裂部60远离所述像素单元40的侧面。
所述阻水部92用于有效阻挡外界环境的水氧对所述像素单元40两侧区域的侵蚀。所述阻隔层82材质可以是氮化硅、氮化铝、氮化锆、氮化钛、氮化钽、氧化钛、氮氧化铝、氮氧化硅中的一种或多种。
所述阻裂部94用于阻隔裂纹的产生,所述阻隔部的材质可以为环氧树脂、丙烯醛基树脂、聚酰亚胺树脂、聚萘二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯中的一种或多种。
请参阅图5,本申请其中一个实施例提供一种柔性显示屏100的制造方法,需要说明的是,上述对柔性显示屏100的实施方式的解释说明也适用于本实施方式的柔性显示屏100的制备方法,为避免冗余,在此不再详细展开。需要说明的是,在下述各个实施例中,下述各步骤之间并不必然存在一定的先后顺序,本领域普通技术人员,根据本申请实施例的描述可以理解,不同实施例中,下述各步骤可以有不同的执行顺序,亦即,可以并行执行,亦可以交换执行等等;不同实施例中,下述有些步骤亦可以省略或被代替。

步骤S53:在所述基底上形成防裂部,所述防裂部围绕所述像素单元并形成于所述基底上,所述防裂部与所述像素单元形成有封装区域。
具体地,在所述基底20上,采用等离子体增强化学气相沉积(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称PECVD)方式、低压化学气相沉积方式(Low Pressure Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称LPCVD)、大气压化学气相沉积(ASmospheric Pressure Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称APCVD)方式或电子回旋谐振化学气相沉积(ElecSron CycloSron Resonance Chemical Vapor DeposiSion:筒称ECR-CVD)方式或溅射方式形成所述防裂部60。
在沉积过程中,使用掩膜版工艺,使所述掩膜版的开孔的形状位置与所述防裂部60保持一致,从而使所述防裂部60围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上。
在一些实施例中,所述在所述基底上形成防裂部之后,还包括:
在所述薄膜封装层和所述防裂部之间形成吸湿部。
具体地,在所述防裂部60和所述薄膜封装层80之间形成凹槽30,进而通过掩膜版工艺,使所述吸湿部70形成于所述凹槽30内。
步骤S54:采用掩膜版工艺,在所述封装区域内沉积薄膜封装层,沉积时,所述防裂部阻隔所述薄膜封装层的沉积材料扩散出所述封装区域。

在一些实施例中,为了有效阻挡外界环境的水氧对所述像素单元40两侧区域的侵蚀。所述方法还包括:在所述防裂部60远离所述像素单元40的侧面形成阻隔结构90,所述阻隔结构90围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上,所述阻隔结构90包括阻水部92和阻裂部94。
具体地,采用磁控溅射、热蒸发或其它成膜方法沉积所述阻隔结构90, 在沉积过程中,使用掩膜版工艺,使掩膜版的一表面抵靠于所述防裂部60远离所述基底20的表面,使所述掩膜版的开孔的形状位置与所述阻水部92和/且所述阻裂部94保持一致,从而使所述阻水部92和/且所述阻裂部94围绕所述像素单元40并形成于所述基底20上。
本申请另一实施例还提供一种显示面板,包括:第一保护层、挤压变形层、上述任一实施例中的柔性显示屏100,第二保护层和压力传感器;挤压变形层位于第一保护层上;柔性显示屏100位于挤压变形层远离第一保护层的一侧;第二保护层位于柔性显示屏100远离第一保护层的一侧;压力传感器位于第二保护层和挤压变形层之间。
将压力传感器设置在柔性显示屏100和第二保护层之间后,在柔性显示面板发生弯折时,第一保护层弯曲并挤压挤压变形层,弯折区域对应的挤压变形层会被压缩,此时挤压变形层将弯折柔性显示面板时的形变力转变为了挤压力,并通过柔性显示屏100将挤压力传递到压力传感器上,并且柔性显示面板弯折的程度越大,则传递至压力传感器上的力也就越大,用户可以根据压力传感器检测到的力的大小调整柔性显示面板的弯折程度,使柔性显示面板的弯折处受到的力保持在一定范围内,从而在一定程度上提高了柔性显示面板的使用安全性。其中,第一保护层还用于保护挤压变形层不被损坏,第二保护层用于保护压力传感器不被损坏,该第二保护层还能够起到保护柔性显示屏100的作用。并且,由于挤压变形层在力的作用下能够发生形变,因此当柔性显示面板中设置有第一保护层的一侧受到撞击时,挤压变形层能够发生形变,起到缓冲的作用,进而降低了柔性显示面板收到撞击时损坏的概率。
与现有技术相比较,本申请显示面板中提供了一种柔性显示屏,所述柔性显示屏包括基底,所述基底设置有像素单元;防裂部,所述防裂部围绕所述像素单元并形成于所述基底上,所述防裂部与所述像素单元形成有封装区域;以及薄膜封装层,所述薄膜封装层沉积于所述封装区域内,并且,所述防裂部用于沉积时,阻隔所述薄膜封装层的沉积材料扩散出所述封装区域。通过设置所述防裂部,且使所述防裂部围绕所述像素单元设置,在采用掩膜版工艺沉积所述薄膜封装层时,可以阻隔所述薄膜封装层的沉积材料扩散出所述封装区域,进而可以消除采用掩膜版工艺而产生的扩散区域,从而消除 了裂纹发源处,当弯折所述柔性显示屏时,不易产生裂纹,对所述柔性显示屏起到了良好的保护作用,提高了所述柔性显示屏的使用性能。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;在本申请的思路下,以上实施例或者不同实施例中的技术特征之间也可以进行组合,步骤可以以任意顺序实现,并存在如上所述的本申请的不同方面的许多其它变化,为了简明,它们没有在细节中提供;尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的范围。
