本申请针对现有的内嵌式触控显示面板中,显示面板的阴极层整面设置且与触控电极位于不同膜层,整面的阴极层对触控信号的屏蔽效应较强,导致显示面板的触控功能不能正常运行的技术问题。本申请可以解决上述问题。
一种触控显示面板,如图1所示,所述触控显示面板包括阵列基板10以及设置于所述阵列基板10上的发光器件层20、像素定义层30和触控器件40。
具体的,所述发光器件层20包括阳极21、设置于所述阳极21上的发光层22以及设置于所述发光层22和所述像素定义层30上的阴极23。
具体的,所述像素定义层30上设置有贯穿其上下两侧的像素开口31,所述阳极21的至少一部分位于所述像素开口31中,所述发光层22位于所述像素开口31中。
具体的,所述触控器件40包括相对设置的第一触控电极41和第二触控电极42,所述第一触控电极41位于所述发光器件层20的侧部且与所述阳极21同层设置,所述像素定义层30覆盖所述第一触控电极41;所述第二触控电极42设置于所述像素定义层30远离所述第一触控电极41的一侧,所述第二触控电极42在所述阵列基板10上的正投影与所述阴极23在所述阵列基板10上的正投影相间隔。
需要说明的是,通过第一触控电极41与第二触控电极42形成电容式的触控电容,手指触碰触控显示面板的显示面时,第一触控电极41与第二触控电极42之间的电容发生变化,产生相应的触控操作,以实现触控功能。通过将第一触控电极41与阳极21同层设置,第二触控电极42设置于像素定义层30的上方,从而形成内嵌式的触控器件40,降低触控显示面板的整体厚度,而第二触控电极42在阵列基板10上的正投影与阴极23在阵列基板10上的正投影相间隔,可以防止阴极23屏蔽第一触控电极41与第二触控电极42之间的触控信号。
需要说明的是,所述第一触控电极41和第二触控电极42中的一者为发射电极,另一者为接收电极,所述第一触控电极41和第二触控电极42形成互容式触控电容。
具体的,所述触控器件40设置有多个,多个所述触控器件40可以均匀分布于阵列基板10上,多个所述触控器件40也可以零散分布于阵列基板10上;第二触控电极42可以与阴极23同层设置或与阴极23位于不同膜层。
需要说明的是,所述阴极23为非整面设置,阴极23可以由多个相间隔的块状结构形成,第二触控电极42与相邻两所述块状结构之间的间隙对应设置;阴极23也可以具有多个通孔,第二触控电极42与通孔对应设置。
具体的,所述像素定义层30上设置有围绕所述发光器件层20的挡墙50,所述第二触控电极42设置于所述挡墙50上。
其中,所述挡墙50围绕所述像素开口31设置,以在通过蒸镀或喷墨打印等方式形成发光层22时防止发光材料扩散导致不同像素开口31中的发光层22连成一体,使用掩膜板蒸镀发光层22时,挡墙50也可以作为放置掩膜板的支撑结构。
具体的,所述第二触控电极42的制备材料与所述阴极23的制备材料相同,所述第二触控电极42与所述阴极23采用同一道蒸镀工序形成。
需要说明的是,采用同一道工序同时形成阴极23和第二触控电极42,可以减少生产工序,降低生产成本,同时由于挡墙50的顶面与像素定义层30之间的高度差,在像素定义层30上采用蒸镀工艺整面蒸镀金属材料时,落在挡墙50的顶面上的金属材料与落在像素定义层30上的金属材料断开,从而形成相间隔的阴极23和第二触控电极42,无需新增特殊工艺制程来形成相间隔的阴极23和第二触控电极42,且形成阴极23和第二触控电极42时对发光层22无相关制程风险。
其中,所述挡墙50的厚度大于1.5微米,从而使得挡墙50的顶面与像素定义层30的表面之间具有足够高的高度差。
具体的,所述像素定义层30的制备材料可以为正性有机光阻,所述挡墙50的制备材料包括光阻材料,所述挡墙50的制备材料可以与像素定义层30的制备材料相同或不同。
在一实施方式中,所述挡墙50的纵截面呈倒梯形。
需要说明的是,通过将挡墙50的纵截面设置成倒梯形状,在像素定义层30上采用蒸镀工艺整面蒸镀金属材料时,挡墙50的顶面上的金属材料流入到挡墙50的侧面时,在重力的作用下挡墙50的侧面上的金属材料滴落,从而便于使得落在挡墙50顶面上的金属材料与落在像素定义层30上的金属材料断开。
进一步的,所述挡墙50的制备材料包括负性光阻。
需要说明的是,挡墙50的制备材料与像素定义层30的制备材料不同,对挡墙50进行蚀刻使其形成倒梯形结构时,像素定义层30不会受到蚀刻液的蚀刻,以便于形成正梯形形状的蚀刻孔,从而便于形成呈倒梯形的挡墙50。
在另一实施方式中,如图2所示,所述挡墙50的纵截面呈正梯形,所述挡墙50的侧边所在的平面与水平面所形成的钝角小于或等于110度。
其中,所述挡墙50可以与所述像素定义层30一体成型,从而减少生产工序。
具体的,所述挡墙50上设置有位于所述第一触控电极41和所述第二触控电极42之间的开孔51,所述开孔51中填充有介电层60,所述介电层60的制备材料的介电常数大于所述挡墙50的制备材料的介电常数。
需要说明的是,一般光阻材料的介电常数较小,通过在第一触控电极41和所述第二触控电极42之间设置介电层60,增强第一触控电极41与第二触控电极42之间形成的触控电容的电容值,可以提升触控器件40的触控灵敏性。
需要说明的是,所述介电层60的制备材料可以为氮化硅和氧化硅中的一种或多种;开孔51可以由第一触控电极41延伸至第二触控电极42的表面,以进一步增强第一触控电极41与第二触控电极42之间形成的触控电容的电容值。
具体的,如图3所示,所述阵列基板10包括衬底基板11、设置于所述衬底基板11上的源漏极18以及覆盖所述源漏极18的第一平坦层19。
其中,所述第一平坦层19上设置有连接金属层以及覆盖所述连接金属层的第二平坦层80,所述阳极21、所述第一触控电极41以及所述像素定义层30设置于所述第二平坦层80上,所述连接金属层与所述阳极21以及所述源漏极18电连接。
具体的,所述连接金属层包括相间隔的第一连接块71和第二连接块72,所述第一连接块71与所述阳极21以及所述源漏极18电连接,所述第二连接块72与所述第一触控电极41电连接。
需要说明的是,源漏极18和阳极21通过第一连接块71实现电连接,第一触控电极41和外接的驱动模块可以通过第二连接块72电连接,以接收驱动模块提供的驱动信号,驱动模块可以为驱动IC;相邻两第一触控电极41之间也可以通过第二连接块72实现电连接以形成网状结构,以提高触控显示面板的触控灵敏性。

其中,所述源漏极18设置于所述层间绝缘层17上且与所述有源层12电连接。
在一实施方式中,所述触控显示面板具有显示区91和位于所述显示区91的侧部的弯折区92,所述像素定义层30上设置有贯穿所述像素定义层30且延伸至所述基底111的表面的弯折开口921,弯折开口921位于弯折区92,以便于触控显示面板的弯折区92的弯折。
