技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,具体涉及一种显示面板。
背景技术
有机发光显示装置(英文全称:Organic Light-Emitting Diode, 简称OLED)又称为有机电激光显示装置、有机发光半导体。OLED的工作原理是:当电力供应至适当电压时,正极空穴与阴极电荷就会在发光层中结合,在库伦力的作用下以一定几率复合形成处于激发态的激子(电子-空穴对),而此激发态在通常的环境中是不稳定的,激发态的激子复合并将能量传递给发光材料,使其从基态能级跃迁为激发态,激发态能量通过辐射驰豫过程产生光子,释放出光能,产生光亮,依其配方不同产生红、绿和蓝RGB三基色,构成基本色彩。
OLED具有电压需求低、省电效率高、反应快、重量轻、厚度薄,构造简单,成本低、广视角、几乎无穷高的对比度、较低耗电、极高反应速度等优点,已经成为当今最重要的显示技术之一。
技术问题
随着显示技术的发展,显示面板的窄边框和高屏占比已经成为一大趋势。所谓屏占比就是屏幕面积与整机面积的比例,较高的屏占比能够给用户带来更好的视觉体验。为了实现显示面板的窄边框和高屏占比,需要将显示面板的非显示区向与出光面相背的一侧进行弯折。而现有技术中,对弯折区进行弯折时,弯折半径不可控,容易导致弯折区内金属走线断裂,降低了显示面板的可靠性。因此需要寻求一种新型的显示面板以解决上述问题。

进一步的,其中所述显示面板还包括垫板,所述垫板设置于所述基板远离所述源漏极层的一侧。
进一步的,其中所述垫板对应于所述凹槽的位置间隔设有导电桥,所述凹槽贯穿所述像素定义层、平坦层、源漏极层、绝缘层直至贯穿所述基板。

其中所述半导体器件层2设置于所述基板1上。具体的,所述半导体器件层2包括:有源层、栅极绝缘层、栅极层。其中所述有源层设置于所述基板上;所述栅极绝缘层设置于所述有源层上;所述栅极层设置于所述栅极绝缘层上;在此不再赘述。
其中所述绝缘层3设置于所述半导体器件层2上;具体的,所述绝缘层3设置于所述栅极层上。所述绝缘层3主要是起绝缘作用,防止源漏极层4与半导体器件层2中的栅极层直接接触形成短路,影响显示面板100的显示。
所述源漏极层4设置于所述绝缘层3上;所述平坦层5设置于所述源漏极层4上;所述像素定义层6设置于所述平坦层5上;所述支撑柱7设置于所述像素定义层6上。
如图3所示,所述非弯折区102的源漏极层4包括若干条相互间隔设置的金属走线41。
如图1、图2所示,所述弯折区101的源漏极层4在对应于所述金属走线41的位置处设有凹槽8,所述凹槽8内填充有导电材料9。所述凹槽8贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5直至所述源漏极层4中。通过导电材料9连接金属走线41,从而可以使弯折区101的金属走线41不用考虑应力平衡问题,从而降低弯折半径,降低边框宽度,提高屏占比,最终给客户带来更好的视觉体验。
实际上,所述凹槽8也可以由上至下贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5、源漏极层4、绝缘层3、半导体器件层2以及所述基板1,在所述凹槽8中填充导电材料9,由此同样可以连接金属走线41,从而可以使弯折区101的金属走线41不用考虑应力平衡问题,从而降低弯折半径,降低边框宽度,提高屏占比,最终给客户带来更好的视觉体验。
具体的,其中所述凹槽8通过激光、湿法蚀刻、干法蚀刻中的一种或多种制备形成。其中湿法刻蚀是一个纯粹的化学反应过程,是指利用溶液与预刻蚀材料之间的化学反应来去除未被掩蔽膜材料掩蔽的部分而达到刻蚀目的。其具有选择性好、重复性好、生产效率高、设备简单、成本低等优点。所述干法刻蚀方式有很多,具体的包括:溅射与离子束铣蚀,等离子刻蚀(Plasma Etching),高压等离子刻蚀,高密度等离子体(HDP)刻蚀,反应离子刻蚀(RIE)。其具有各向异性好,选择比高,可控性、灵活性、重复性好,细线条操作安全,易实现自动化,无化学废液,处理过程未引入污染,洁净度高等优点。
其中所述导电材料9包括导电油墨、石墨烯分散液、聚苯胺溶液中的一种或多种。所述导电油墨主要是用导电材料(金、银、铜和碳)分散在连结料中制成的糊状油墨,俗称糊剂油墨。
实施例2
如图4、图 5所示,本实施例所述的显示面板100还包括垫板10,所述垫板10设置于所述基板1远离所述源漏极层4的一侧。本实施例中所述垫板10与所述基板1弯折后的接触侧面形状为矩形。其中所述凹槽8可以贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5直至所述源漏极层4中,然后在凹槽8中填充导电材料,由此可以连接金属走线41,从而可以使弯折区101的金属走线41不用考虑应力平衡问题,从而降低弯折半径,降低边框宽度,提高屏占比,最终给客户带来更好的视觉体验。
如图6、图7所示,更优选的,其中所述垫板10对应于所述凹槽8的位置间隔设有导电桥11。此时所述凹槽8应该自上而下贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5、源漏极层4、绝缘层3、半导体器件层2以及基板1,否则,导电桥11无法与导电材料9共同合作,达到连接金属走线41的效果。由此可以通过导电桥11能够更好的连接金属走线41,防止金属走线41厚度太低导致导电材料9无法连通金属走线41的现象发生。
其中所述导电桥11通过3D打印技术、电镀方式中的一种或多种制备形成。所述3D打印技术,属于快速成形技术的一种,它是一种数字模型文件为基础,运用粉末状金属或塑料等可粘合材料,通过逐层堆叠累积的方式来构造物体的技术(即“积层造形法”)。3D打印技术最突出的优点是无需机械加工或任何模具,就能直接从计算机图形数据中生成任何形状的零件,从而极大地缩短产品的研制周期,提高生产率和降低生产成本。所述电镀(Electroplating)就是利用电解原理在某些金属表面上镀上一薄层其它金属或合金的过程,是利用电解作用使金属或其它材料制件的表面附着一层金属膜的工艺从而起到防止金属氧化(如锈蚀),提高耐磨性、导电性、反光性、抗腐蚀性(硫酸铜等)及增进美观等作用。电镀能增强金属的抗腐蚀性(镀层金属多采用耐腐蚀的金属)、增加硬度、防止磨耗、提高导电性、光滑性、耐热性和表面美观。
实施例3
如图8、图9所示,本实施例与实施例2不同之处在于:所述显示面板100还包括垫板10,所述垫板10设置于所述基板1远离所述源漏极层4的一侧。本实施例中所述垫板10与所述基板1弯折后的接触侧面形状为弧形。其中所述凹槽8可以贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5直至所述源漏极层4中,然后在凹槽8中填充导电材料,由此可以连接金属走线41,从而可以使弯折区101的金属走线41不用考虑应力平衡问题,从而降低弯折半径,降低边框宽度,提高屏占比,最终给客户带来更好的视觉体验。
如图10所示,更优选的,其中所述垫板10对应于所述凹槽8的位置间隔设有导电桥11,此时所述凹槽8应该自上而下贯穿所述像素定义层6、平坦层5、源漏极层4、绝缘层3、半导体器件层2以及基板1,否则,导电桥11无法与导电材料9共同合作,达到连接金属走线41的效果。通过导电桥11能够更好的连接金属走线41,防止金属走线41厚度太低导致导电材料9无法连通金属走线41的现象发生。
