Description

一种显示面板和显示装置
本申请要求在2019年6月26日提交中国专利局、申请号为201910561658.2的中国专利申请的优先权,该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请实施例涉及显示面板技术,例如一种显示面板和显示装置。
背景技术
随着显示装置的迅速发展,对显示面板的显示性能的要求越来越高。然而相关技术中的显示面板存在显示不均的情况,因此急需改善显示面板的显示不均情况。
发明内容
本申请提供一种显示面板和显示装置,以实现显示面板的显示均一性的要求。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供了一种显示面板,包括:衬底基板;
设置于所述衬底基板一侧的至少一个辅助电极和至少一个第一电极,所述辅助电极与所述第一电极同层设置且相互绝缘;设置于所述辅助电极和所述第一电极远离所述衬底基板一侧的像素定义层,所述像素定义层包括至少一个第一开孔和至少一个第二开孔,所述第一开孔处暴露出对应的所述第一电极,所述第二开孔处暴露出对应的辅助电极;有机功能层;第二电极,设置于所述有机功能层的远离所述衬底基板的一侧;所述辅助电极表面设置有与相应第二开孔对应的第一通孔;金属层,设置于所述第二开孔和所述第一通孔内,在所述第二开孔和所述第一通孔内所述金属层设置于所述有机功能层和所述第二电极之间,所述金属层与所述第二电极接触,且所述金属层与所述第一通孔处的所述辅助电极的侧壁接触。
第二方面,本申请实施例还提供了一种显示装置,包括第一方面任意项所述的显示面板。
本发明实施例提供的显示面板通过在辅助电极表面设置与第二开孔对应的第一通孔,第一通孔的深度大于有机功能层的厚度,第二开孔内设置金属层, 金属层与第二电极接触。使得在蒸镀有机功能层时,有机功能层不会附着在高于有机功能层上表面位置的辅助电极的侧面,金属层可以直接与辅助电极的侧面接触,实现第二电极与辅助电极的电连接。因此本发明实施例提供的方案无需采用激光打孔工艺对有机功能层进行打孔即可实现第二电极与辅助电极的电连接,由于激光打孔工艺精度可控性低,打孔时控制尺寸和位置容易存在偏差,容易影响发光区域的有机功能层,影响发光寿命,因此本实施例的方案在保证不会影响发光单元的发光寿命,保证显示面板具有较高的像素密度的同时,可以降低第二电极的电阻,提升显示均一性。

具体实施方式
正如背景技术中提到的相关技术中的显示面板存在显示不均的情况,申请人经过研究发现:相关技术中的显示面板的阴极为一整层膜层,为提高出光率,阴极的厚度一般做的较薄,使得阴极的电阻较大。相关技术中阴极信号线连接线在非显示区中与阴极的边缘电连接,阴极驱动信号通过阴极的边缘向显示区的各个位置传输,由于阴极的电阻较大,阴极驱动信号在传输过程中存在较大的压降,导致不同像素单元对应的阴极驱动信号不同,从而影响显示面板的显示均一性。
本实施例提供了以下解决方案:
图1是本申请一实施例提供的一种显示面板的结构示意图。图2是本申请一实施例提供的一种显示面板沿剖面线AA’的剖面示意图。结合图1和图2,本申请实施例提供的显示面板100包括:衬底基板1,设置于衬底基板1一侧的至少一个辅助电极2,例如为多个辅助电极2和设置于衬底基板1一侧的至少一 个第一电极3,例如为多个第一电极3。所述辅助电极2与所述第一电极3同层设置且相互绝缘。
本申请实施例提供的显示面板100还包括设置于所述辅助电极2和所述第一电极3远离衬底基板1一侧的像素定义层4。像素定义层4包括至少一个第一开孔5和至少一个第二开孔6。第一开孔5暴露出对应的第一电极3。第二开孔6暴露出对应的辅助电极2。
本申请实施例提供的显示面板100还包括有机功能层和第二电极8。有机功能层包括设置于像素定义层4的远离衬底基板1的表面的第一有机功能层71以及第一电极3的远离衬底基板1的表面的第二功能层72。第二电极8设置于有机功能层远离衬底基板1的一侧,示例性的,第二电极8设置于第一有机功能层71远离衬底基板1的一侧。辅助电极2表面设置有与相应第二开孔6对应的第一通孔9。有机功能层还包括设置在第一通孔9内衬底基板1表面上的第三有机功能层73。第一通孔9的深度D1大于第三有机功能层73的厚度D2。第二开孔6和第一通孔9内设置有金属层10。在第二开孔6和第一通孔9内金属层10设置于有机功能层和第二电极8之间,示例性的,在第二开孔6和第一通孔9内金属层10设置于第三有机功能层73和第二电极8之间。金属层10与第二电极8接触,且金属层10与第一通孔9处的辅助电极2的侧壁接触。
在一实施例中,像素定义层4的第一开孔5对应发光区域,用于设置发光单元,像素定义层4的第二开孔6位于非发光区域,第二开孔6可以位于显示区,例如位于多个发光单元之间的区域(即多个第一开孔5之间的区域),也可以位于非显示区。第二开孔6的个数可以根据辅助电极2的个数需要进行设置,示例性的,可以在显示区第一开孔5之间的区域均设置第二开孔6。多个辅助电极2之间可以相互电连接。有机功能层可以包括空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子传输层和电子注入层中的至少一种。有机功能层在蒸镀时采用整面蒸镀。在第一开孔5内还包括有机发光层(图中并未示出),每一个第一开孔5内的第一电极3、有机发光层、第二有机功能层72、设置于第一开孔5中的金属层10和第二电极8组成一个发光单元。
此外,第一通孔9的深度D1大于第三有机功能层73的厚度D2,保证蒸镀有机功能层后,位于第一通孔9内的第三有机功能层73的上表面至少低于辅助电极2的上表面的高度,使得第二开孔6内设置的金属层10与第一通孔9处的 辅助电极2的侧壁接触。
在一实施例中,通过在辅助电极2表面设置与第二开孔6对应的第一通孔9,第一通孔9的深度D1大于第三有机功能层73的厚度D2,第二开孔6内设置金属层10,金属层10与第二电极8接触,使得在蒸镀有机功能层时,第三有机功能层73不会附着在高于第三有机功能层73上表面位置的辅助电极2的侧壁。金属层10可以直接与辅助电极2的侧壁接触,实现第二电极8与辅助电极2的电连接。因此本申请实施例提供的方案无需采用激光打孔工艺对有机功能层进行打孔即可实现第二电极8与辅助电极2的电连接。由于激光打孔工艺精度可控性低,打孔时控制尺寸和位置容易存在偏差,容易影响发光区域的有机功能层,影响发光寿命,因此本实施例的方案在保证不会影响发光单元的发光寿命,保证显示面板100具有较高的像素密度的同时,可以降低第二电极8的电阻,提升显示均一性。
图3是本申请一实施例提供的另一种显示面板沿剖面线AA’的剖面示意图。参考图2和图3,沿像素定义层4指向衬底基板1且与衬底基板1垂直的方向,第一通孔9的内径逐渐增大或不变。
在一实施例中,第一通孔9的内径从上往下逐渐增大或不变能够较好的保证在形成有机功能层的制程中,第三有机功能层73不会覆盖第一通孔9内的辅助电极2的高于第三有机功能层73的上表面的侧面,保证在第一通孔9内的金属层10与辅助电极2的侧表面良好接触。如图3所示,要实现第一通孔9的内径从上往下逐渐增大,可以设置第一通孔9沿垂直于显示面板100的方向的截面形状为梯形,如图2所示,要实现第一通孔9的内径不变,可以设置第一通孔9沿垂直于显示面板100的方向的截面形状为矩形,且由于截面形状为梯形或矩形的第一通孔9制作工艺相对简单,可以有效降低工艺成本。
需要说明的是,本实施例仅示例性的示出了第一通孔9的截面形状为矩形和梯形的情况,在其他实施方式中,第一通孔9的截面还可以为其他形状。
图4是本申请一实施例提供的一种显示面板沿剖面线BB’的剖面示意图。参见图4,显示面板100还包括连接线11,连接线11设置于辅助电极2的邻近衬底基板1的一侧,每一个辅助电极2通过连接线11与第一电源信号线电连接。
其中,第一电源信号线设置为向第二电极8提供驱动信号。在仅从第二电极 8的边缘提供驱动信号的情况下,驱动信号在整个第二电极8表面传输距离较远,驱动信号在传输过程中需经过多个发光单元,其压降较大。通过向每一个辅助电极2均提供驱动信号,使得驱动信号在第二电极8的表面的传输路径缩短,降低驱动信号在第二电极8表面的压降,提升显示面板的显示均一性。
图中并未示出第一电源信号线的位置。第一电源信号线可以位于显示面板的边框区域,示例性的第一电源信号线可以设置于显示面板的边框的至少一个侧边。如第一电源信号线可以位于显示面板的未设置驱动芯片的三个侧边。上述仅是对第一电源信号线的位置的示例说明,并非对本申请的限定,实际制作时,可根据实际情况,合理设置第一电源信号线的位置。
此外,通过单独设置连接线11连接至每一个辅助电极2,连接线11将驱动信号传输至辅助电极2,然后驱动信号由辅助电极2传输至第二电极8。由于连接线11仅设置为传输驱动信号,其可以根据需要采用较小的电阻,从而可以最大限度的降低驱动信号传输到辅助电极2时的压降,提升驱动信号在第二电极8的分布均匀性,提升显示面板100的显示均一性。
需要说明的是,连接线11可以采用电阻率较小的材料,且可以采用较大的厚度和较大的线宽,以降低电阻。此外连接线11可以与显示面板100中的其他层同层制作,也可以单独制作,本实施例并不做限定。
参见图4,第一通孔9贯穿辅助电极2和连接线11,使金属层10与第一通孔9处的辅助电极2和连接线11的侧壁接触。
在一实施例中,第一通孔9贯穿辅助电极2和连接线11,使得第一通孔9的深度D1足以容纳第三有机功能层73,保证金属层10与第一通孔9处的辅助电极2的侧壁良好接触。通过金属层10将第二电极8与辅助电极2电连接,降低第二电极8电阻的同时,使得在连接线11的厚度大于第三有机功能层73的厚度的情况下,金属层10可以与连接线11的侧壁接触,连接线11和辅助电极2之间设置有绝缘层12。连接线11和辅助电极2可以通过金属层10电连接,可以不设置额外的连接结构,减少了工艺步骤,降低了制作成本。
图5是本申请一实施例提供的另一种显示面板沿剖面线BB’的剖面示意图。参见图5,连接线11与辅助电极2之间设置有绝缘层12。绝缘层12内设置有至少一个第二通孔13。所述辅助电极2通过所述第二通孔13与连接线11电连 接。
这样设置,可以保证辅助电极2与连接线11的连接可靠性,避免金属层10与连接线11的侧壁接触面积较小容易出现接触不良的情况。
显示面板100还包括第二电源信号线,第二电源信号线与第一电源信号线提供的电源信号的大小不同,连接线11与第二电源信号线同层设置且相互绝缘。
显示面板100还包括像素驱动电路,像素驱动电路设置为驱动发光单元发光。每一个像素驱动电路可以包括至少两个薄膜晶体管和至少一个电容。第二电源信号线设置为向像素驱动电路提供固定电位。连接线11与第二电源信号线同层设置,使得显示面板100的厚度更薄,符合显示面板100轻薄化的发展趋势,此外,连接线11与第二电源信号线采用同一工艺制作,降低工艺成本。
可选地,金属层10远离衬底基板1的表面与第一有机功能层71远离衬底基板1的表面的高度差小于或等于3微米。
第二电极8整层覆盖显示面板。由于第二电极8比较薄,在金属层10的远离基板的表面与第一有机功能层71远离衬底基板1的表面高度差过大的情况下,第二电极8在金属层10与第一有机功能层71交接处的高度差过大,容易造成第二电极8的厚度不均。示例性的,第二电极8可能在该处出现断裂。通过将金属层10的远离基板的表面与第一有机功能层71远离衬底基板1的表面的高度差设置为小于或等于3微米时,能够保证形成的第二电极8具有较好的平坦性,且保证第二电极8的厚度均匀性,提升显示面板的显示均一性。
可选地,金属层10与第二电极8的材料相同。
这样设置,在制作显示面板时,蒸镀完金属层10后,可以采用相同的蒸镀材料直接蒸镀第二电极8,无需更换蒸镀材料,节省工艺步骤。
图6是本申请一实施例提供的一种显示装置的结构示意图。参见图6,本申请实施例提供的显示装置200包括上述任意实施例提出的显示面板100。
本申请实施例提供的显示装置200可以为手机、具有显示功能的可穿戴设备、计算机等显示装置,本申请实施例提供的显示装置200包括上述任意实施例提出的显示面板100。
