如图2A所示,子像素12包括驱动晶体管121。这里,驱动晶体管121包括多层导电层。作为一些实现方式,驱动晶体管121可以是顶栅极晶体管;作为另一些实现方式,驱动晶体管121可以是底栅极晶体管。图2A示出的是驱动晶体管121为顶栅极晶体管的情况。

封装层15位于多个子像素12、第一围堰13和第二围堰14远离衬底基板11的一侧。这里,多个子像素12、第一围堰13和第二围堰14在衬底基板11上的正投影位于封装层15在衬底基板11上的正投影之内。例如,封装层15可以包括薄膜封装层。 在一些实施例中,封装层15可以包括第一无机层151、第二无机层152、以及位于第一无机层151和第二无机层152之间的有机层153。在一些实施例中,显示面板还可以包括位于第二围堰14与显示区111之间的第三围堰22。第三围堰22用于阻挡有机层153的流动。
至少一个压力传感器16位于第二围堰14靠近第一围堰13的第一侧和远离第一围堰13的第二侧中的至少一侧。例如,该至少一个压力传感器16均位于第二围堰14靠近第一围堰13的第一侧;又例如,该至少一个压力传感器16均位于第二围堰14远离第一围堰13的第二侧;再例如,该至少一个压力传感器16中的一个或多个压力传感器16位于第二围堰14靠近第一围堰13的第一侧,该至少一个压力传感器16中的一个或多个压力传感器16位于第二围堰14远离第一围堰13的第二侧。
每个压力传感器16中的至少一个电阻R与驱动晶体管121中的多层导电层中的一层位于同一层。例如,压力传感器16的至少一个电阻R包括四个电阻。
需要说明的是,在本公开实施例中,多个部件位于同一层是指多个部件是通过对同一材料层进行构图工艺而形成的。故,这多个部件的材料相同,厚度也基本相同。
上述实施例中,至少一个压力传感器16位于第二围堰14靠近第一围堰13的第一侧和远离第一围堰13的第二侧中的至少一侧,并且每个压力传感器16中的至少一个电阻R与驱动晶体管121中的多层导电层中的一层位于同一层。这样的结构下,压力传感器16可以在形成子像素12的过程中形成,无需额外增加交互按键,有利于减小显示面板的厚度。
另外,压力传感器16可以充分利用周边区112的空间,无需额外增大周边区112的尺寸,故,本公开的一些实施例可以在实现窄边框的情况下,减小显示面板的厚度。
下面结合图2A介绍驱动晶体管121的一些具体实现方式。
参见图2A,驱动晶体管121包括有源层1211、栅极1212、第一绝缘层1213,第二绝缘层1214、第三绝缘层1215、第一电极1216和第二电极1217。驱动晶体管121中的多层导电层包括栅极1212、第一电极1216和第二电极1217。

第一电极1216和第二电极1217位于第三绝缘层1215远离衬底基板11一侧,并且电连接至有源层1211。在一些实施例中,第一电极1216为漏极,第二电极1217为源极。例如,第一电极1216和第二电极1217分别通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215、第二绝缘层1214和第一绝缘层1213的过孔电连接至有源层1211。例如,第一电极1216和第二电极1217可以包括Ti/Al/Ti的叠层。
作为一些实现方式,压力传感器16的至少一个电阻R和栅极1212位于同一层。
作为另一些实现方式,压力传感器16的至少一个电阻R、第一电极1216和第二电极1217位于同一层。例如,电阻R包括Ti/Al/Ti的叠层。这样的方式下,压力传感器16受外界压力后的电阻变化更为敏感。

在一些实施例中,显示面板还包括位于周边区112,并且电连接至位于显示区111的多条初始化线20的初始化总线21。经由初始化总线21可以向多条初始化线20提供初始化信号。初始化总线21位于平坦化层123和衬底基板11之间,并且与第一电极1216和第二电极1217位于同一层。例如,初始化总线21位于电源线13和显示区111之间。

在一些实施例中,参见图2B,显示面板还包括止裂件17,用于阻挡切割显示面板过程中的裂纹向显示区111扩展。这里,止裂件17位于封装层15远离显示区111的一侧,显示面板中的压力传感器16位于止裂件17靠近显示区111的一侧。
在一些实施例中,第一围堰13在衬底基板11上的正投影靠近第二围堰14的边界与第二围堰14在衬底基板11上的正投影靠近第一围堰13的边界之间的距离为第一距离,第二围堰14在衬底基板11上的正投影远离第一围堰13的边界与封装层15在衬底基板11上的正投影的边界之间的距离为第二距离,封装层15在衬底基板11上的正投影的边界与止裂件17在衬底基板11上的正投影靠近显示区111的边界之间的距离为第三距离。这里,第一距离和第二距离大于第三距离。例如,第一距离和第二距离大于50微米,例如可以是80微米、90微米、100微米、110微米、130微米,150微米等。例如,第三距离为30至70微米,例如40微米、50微米、60微米等。应理解,本领域技术人员可以根据显示面板的边框的尺寸对第一距离、第二距离和第三距离进行调整。另外,还应理解,两个边界之间的距离可以理解为一个边界上的各点到另一边界上各点的最小距离。
在一些实施例中,参见图2A和图2B,显示面板还包括位于衬底基板11与第一 绝缘层1213之间的缓冲层23。例如,缓冲层23的材料可以包括硅的氧化物、硅的氮化物、硅的氮氧化物等无机绝缘材料。这里,第一绝缘层1213、第二绝缘层1214和第三绝缘层1215从显示区111延伸到周边区112,止裂件17贯穿第三绝缘层1215、第二绝缘层1214、第一绝缘层1213和缓冲层18。

下面介绍显示面板中的压力传感器16的设置位置的一些实现方式。
在一些实施例中,参见图2B,显示面板的至少一个压力传感16包括第一压力传感器16。这里,第一压力传感器16位于第二围堰14与第一围堰13之间,并且,第一压力传感器16在衬底基板11上的正投影位于封装层15在衬底基板11上的正投影之内。这样的方式下,一方面,第一压力传感器161被封装层15覆盖;另一方面,第二围堰14可以阻挡水和氧气对第一压力传感器161的不利影响。如此,可以提高第一压力传感器161的可靠性。
在另一些实施例中,参见图2B,显示面板的至少一个压力传感16包括第二压力传感器16。这里,第二压力传感器162位于第二围堰14与止裂件17之间,并且,第二压力传感器162在衬底基板11上的正投影位于封装层15在衬底基板11上的正投影之内。这样的方式下,第二压力传感器162被封装层15覆盖,可以减小水和氧气对第二压力传感器162的不利影响。
在又一些实施例中,参见图2B,显示面板的至少一个压力传感16包括位于封装层15与止裂件17之间的第三压力传感器163。
图3是示出根据本公开一个实施例的压力传感器的电路示意图。
如图3所示,显示面板的至少一个电阻R包括第一电阻R1、第二电阻R2、第三电阻R3和第四电阻R4。
第一电阻R1电连接在第一输入端IN1和第一输出端OUT1之间,第二电阻R2电连接在第一输出端OUT1和第二输入端IN2之间、第三电阻R3电连接在第二输入端IN2和第二输出端OUT2之间,第四电阻R4电连接在第二输出端OUT2和第一输 入端IN1之间。这里,第一电阻R1、第二电阻R2、第三电阻R3和第四电阻R4在不受压力的情况下的电阻值相同。应理解,这里的相同是在半导体工艺偏差范围内的相同。
下面以第一电阻R1受外界压力,而其他三个电阻不受外界压力为例说明压力传感器16的工作原理。
第一输入端IN1和第二输入端IN2之间施加有输入电压Vin。在均不受外界压力的情况下,第一电阻R1、第二电阻R2、第三电阻R3和第四电阻R4的电阻值相同,第一输出端OUT1和第二输出端OUT2之间的输出电压Vout为0;在第一电阻R1受外界压力,而其他三个电阻不受外界压力的情况下,第一电阻R1的电阻值变化,其他三个电阻的电阻值不发生变化,故,Vout不为0。因此,根据Vout的值可以识别是否有外界压力施加到压力传感器16的第一电阻R1。
针对压力传感器16的信号输入和信号输出,本公开实施例还提供了如下布线方式。
图4A是示出根据本公开一个实施例的压力传感器的布线的截面示意图。
如图4A所示,显示面板还包括与第一输出端OUT1电连接的第一信号输出线SG1和与第二输出端OUT2电连接的第二信号输出线SG2。需要说明的是,第一输出端OUT1和第一信号输出线SG1的电连接方式以及第二输出端OUT2和第二信号输出线SG2的电连接方式类似。在图4A示出的输出端是第一输出端OUT1的情况下,图4示出的信号线为第一信号输出线SG1;在图4示出的输出端是第二输出端OUT2的情况下,图4示出的信号线为第二信号输出线SG2。
第一信号输出线SG1和第二信号输出线SG2可以与子像素12中的某一层位于同一层。下面结合图2A和图4A进行说明。
参见图2A,子像素12还包括存储电容122。存储电容122包括与栅极1212位于同一层的第一电极板1221、以及位于第二绝缘层1214和第三绝缘层1215之间的第二电极板1222。应理解,存储电容122还包括位于第一电极板1221和第二电极板1222之间的第二绝缘层1214。
在一些实施例中,第一信号输出线SG1和第二信号输出线SG2与第一电极板1221和第二电极板1222中的一个位于同一层。
例如,第一信号输出线SG1和第二信号输出线SG2与第一电极板1221位于同一层。这种情况下,第一输出端OUT1可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215和第二绝缘层1214 的一个或多个过孔与第一信号输出线SG1电连接,第二输出端OUT2可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215和第二绝缘层1214的一个或多个过孔与第二信号输出线SG2电连接。
又例如,参见图4A,第一信号输出线SG1和第二信号输出线SG2与第二电极板1222位于同一层。这种情况下,第一输出端OUT1可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215的一个或多个过孔与第一信号输出线SG1电连接,第二输出端OUT2可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215的一个或多个过孔与第二信号输出线SG2电连接。
图4B是示出根据本公开另一个实施例的压力传感器的布线的截面示意图。
如图4B所示,显示面板还包括与第入输出端IN1电连接的第一信号输入线SI1和与第二输入端IN2电连接的第二信号输入线SI2。需要说明的是,第一输入端IN1和第一信号输入线SI1的电连接方式以及第二输入端IN2和第二信号输入线SI2的电连接方式类似。在图4B示出的输入端是第一输入端IN1的情况下,图4B示出的信号线为第一信号输入线SI1;在图4B示出的输入端是第二输入端IN2的情况下,图4B示出的信号线为第二信号输入线SI2。
在第一信号输出线SG1和第二信号输出线SG2与第一电极板1221和第二电极板1222中的一个位于同一层的情况下,第一信号输入线SI1和第二信号输入线SI2与与第一电极板1221和第二电极板1222中的另一个位于同一层。换言之,两个信号输出线SG1和SG2与两个信号输入线SI1和SI2位于不同层。
例如,参见图4B,第一信号输入线SI1和第二信号输入线SI2与第一电极板1221位于同一层。例如,第一输入端IN1可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215和第二绝缘层1214的一个或多个过孔与第一信号输入线SI1电连接,第二输入端IN2可以通过贯穿第三绝缘层1215和第二绝缘层1214的一个或多个过孔与第二信号输入线IG2电连接。
这样的方式下,可以减小两个信号输出线SG1和SG2与两个信号输入线SI1和SI2之间的信号干扰。
图5A和图5B是示出根据本公开一些实施例的压力传感器的布局示意图。
在图5A和图5B中,第一电阻R1和第三电阻R3相对于第一线L1对称设置,第二电阻R2和第四电阻R4相对于第二线L2对称设置。例如,第一线L1和第二线L2垂直。
在一些实施例中,参见图5B,第一电阻R1位于第一线L1的一侧,第二电阻R2、第三电阻R3和第四电阻R4位于第一线L1的另一侧。这样的方式下,更容易将四个电阻布置为使得第一电阻R1受外界压力,而其他三个电阻不受外界压力。
另外,图5A和图5B示意性地示出了第一输入端IN1、第二输入端IN2、第一输出端OUT1和第二输出端OUT2的位置。
图6是示出根据本公开一个实施例的显示面板的制造方法的流程示意图;
在步骤602,提供衬底基板,衬底基板包括显示区和围绕显示区的周边区;
在步骤604,形成多个子像素、第一围堰、第二围堰和至少一个压力传感器。例如,在形成子像素的过程中,可以同时形成第一围堰、第二围堰和压力传感器。
多个子像素位于显示区,多个子像素中的至少一个子像素包括驱动晶体管,驱动晶体管包括多层导电层。
第一围堰和第二围堰位于周边区、且围绕显示区,第二围堰位于第一围堰远离显示区的一侧。
至少一个压力传感器位于第二围堰靠近第一围堰的第一侧和远离第一围堰的第二侧中的至少一侧。至少一个压力传感器中的每个压力传感器中的至少一个电阻与多层导电层中的一层位于同一层。
在步骤606,形成位于多个子像素、第一围堰和第二围堰远离衬底基板的一侧的封装层。
这里,多个子像素、第一围堰和第二围堰在衬底基板上的正投影位于封装层在衬底基板上的正投影之内。
上述实施例中,至少一个压力传感器位于第二围堰靠近第一围堰的第一侧和远离第一围堰的第二侧中的至少一侧,并且每个压力传感器中的至少一个电阻R与驱动晶体管中的多层导电层中的一层位于同一层。这样的结构下,压力传感器可以在形成子像素的过程中形成,无需额外增加交互按键,有利于减小显示面板的厚度。
本公开还提供了一种显示装置,显示装置可以包括上述任意一个实施例的显示面板。在一些实施例中,显示装置例如可以是移动终端、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪、电子纸等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
例如,显示装置是移动终端。在一些实施例中,通过设计移动终端侧面的边框,可以使得显示面板的压力传感器16中的第一电阻R1能够被施加外界压力,而其他三个电阻不能被施加外界压力,如此使得压力传感器16的输出电压Vout发生变化。
至此,已经详细描述了本公开的各实施例。为了避免遮蔽本公开的构思,没有描述本领域所公知的一些细节。本领域技术人员根据上面的描述,完全可以明白如何实施这里公开的技术方案。
虽然已经通过示例对本公开的一些特定实施例进行了详细说明,但是本领域的技术人员应该理解,以上示例仅是为了进行说明,而不是为了限制本公开的范围。本领域的技术人员应该理解,可在不脱离本公开的范围和精神的情况下,对以上实施例进行修改或者对部分技术特征进行等同替换。本公开的范围由所附权利要求来限定。
