Description

OLED显示装置 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种OLED显示装置。
背景技术
在显示技术领域,有机发光二极管(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,OLED)显示器等平板显示装置具有机身薄、省电、无辐射等众多优点,得到了广泛的应用,已经逐步取代阴极射线管(Cathode Ray Tube,CRT)显示装置。
OLED通常包括:基板、设于基板上的阳极、设于阳极上的空穴注入层(HIL)、设于空穴注入层上的空穴传输层(HTL)、设于空穴传输层上的发光层、设于发光层上的电子传输层(ETL)、设于电子传输层上的电子注入层(EIL)及设于电子注入层上的阴极。OLED显示器件的发光原理为半导体材料和有机发光材料在电场驱动下,通过载流子注入和复合导致发光。
现有的一种采用触控层直接设置于OLED面板上(Direct On-cell Touch,DOT)技术的OLED显示装置包括依次设置的玻璃基板、聚酰亚胺(PI)膜、薄膜晶体管(TFT)阵列层、发光功能层、薄膜封装层、以及触控层,触控层包括阵列排布的多个触控电极,多个触控电极包括依次交替设置的发射电极及接收电极,相邻的接收电极之间直接连接,相邻的发射电极之间通过与多个触控电极异层设置的桥接部连接,从而实现触控功能。
随着显示技术的不断发展,全面屏设计的显示装置越来越受到消费者的青睐,为了实现全面屏设计,面板下设置摄像头(camera under panel,CUP)技术开始出现在人们的视野。所谓CUP技术是指将摄像头设置在OLED显示面板的背面,同时在OLED显示面板中设置与摄像头对应的透光区,不使用摄像头时,透光区可以正常进行显示及触控,需要使用摄像头时,光线能够透过透光区射入摄像头内便于成像。因此,透光区不仅仅需要设置有能够进行显示的像素单元,同时也需要具有较高的透过率,现有的同时采用CUP技术及DOT技术的OLED显示装置中透光区域内的触控层严重影响了透光区的透过率。
技术问题
本发明的目的在于提供一种OLED显示装置,能够在保证透光区的触控功能正常的基础上,增加透光区的透过率。
技术解决方案
为实现上述目的,本发明提供一种OLED显示装置,包括依次设置的衬底、发光功能层及触控层;
