技术领域
本申请涉及显示设备技术领域,尤其涉及一种显示面板、显示装置及显示面板的制备方法。
背景技术
随着技术的不断发展,人们对显示装置的要求越来越高。如何增大显示装置的显示面积成为目前显示装置发展的重要方向。为了增大显示面积,一方面在尽可能最大化显示面积的同时缩窄四周边框,即“全面屏”。而在实现全面屏以后在机身尺寸不变的情况下,再想增大屏幕面积显然是不可能的,那么就需要另寻他法。折叠屏概念开始初步成型,在折叠状态下机身尺寸足以塞入口袋,展开的状态下等于原折叠尺寸两倍的面积。而折叠屏的弯折区域由于不耐弯折,弯折区域内的金属走线易发生断裂,严重影响折叠屏的使用寿命。

具体实施方式
下面将详细描述本申请的各个方面的特征和示例性实施例。在下面的详细描述中,提出了许多具体细节,以便提供对本申请的全面理解。但是,对于本领域技术人员来说很明显的是,本申请可以在不需要这些具体细节中的一些细节的情况下实施。下面对实施例的描述仅仅是为了通过示出本申请的示例来提供对本申请的更好的理解。在附图和下面的描述中,至少部分的公知结构和技术没有被示出,以便避免对本申请造成不必要的模糊;并且,为了清晰,可能夸大了部分结构的尺寸。此外,下文中所描述的特征、结构或特性可以以任何合适的方式结合在一个或更多实施例中。
为了更好地理解本申请,下面结合图1至图12对本申请实施例的折叠显示面板、显示装置及折叠显示面板的制备方法进行详细描述。
请一并参阅图1和图2,图1是本申请第一方面实施例提供的一种折叠显示面板10在展平状态下的结构示意图;图2是本申请第一方面实施例提供的一种折叠显示面板10在折叠状态下的结构示意图。
如图1所示,折叠显示面板10具有弯折区TA、及在折叠显示面板10宽度方向(图1中的X方向)上位于弯折区TA两侧的非弯折区PA。如图2所示,折叠显示面板10通过弯折区TA的弯折实现在展平状态和折叠状态的转变。
请一并参阅图1和图3,图3是图1中P处的局部放大结构示意图。
如图1和图3所示,折叠显示面板10包括:像素组100,包括位于弯折区TA的第一像素组110及位于非弯折区PA的第二像素组120;驱动电路200,位于非弯折区PA并用于驱动像素组100,驱动电路200包括用于驱动第一像素组110的第一驱动电路210及用于驱动第二像素组120的第二驱动电路220。
在本申请实施例提供的折叠显示面板10中,折叠显示面板10包括像素组100和驱动电路200,像素组100包括第一像素组110和第二像素组120,第一像素组110用于实现弯折区TA的显示,第二像素组120用于实现非弯折区PA的显示。驱动电路200的第一驱动电路210和第二驱动电路220分别驱动第一像素组110和第二像素组120显示。第一驱动电路210和第二驱动电路220均位于非弯折区PA,弯折区TA内未设置驱动电路200,能够改善弯折区TA内金属走线易断裂的问题,进而有效提升显示面板的使用寿命。
发明人发现,驱动电路200通常由层叠设置的图案化金属层组成,层叠的金属层之间通常设置有无机绝缘层。无机绝缘层具有不耐弯折、易发生断裂的问题。在本申请实施例中,当弯折区TA未设置驱动电路200时,也可以去除弯折区TA的无机绝缘层,以提高弯折区TA的柔性。由于弯折区TA不存在驱动电路200,弯折区TA内还 留有空间填充有机膜层以进一步提升弯折区TA的抗弯折能力,提高折叠显示面板10的使用寿命。
图3中仅示意出个别第一像素组110及其对应连接的第一驱动电路210、以及第二像素组120及其对应的第二驱动电路220。可选的,第一像素组110和第一驱动电路210一一对应设置,各第一驱动电路210分别驱动各第一像素组110;或者第一驱动电路210和第一像素组110为一对多设置,同一第一驱动电路210用于驱动两个以上颜色相同的第一像素组110。可选的,第二像素组120和第二驱动电路220一一对应设置,各第二驱动电路220分别驱动各第二像素组120;或者第二驱动电路220和第二像素组120为一对多设置,同一第二驱动电路220用于驱动两个以上颜色相同的第二像素组120。
第一像素组110和第二像素组120的设置方式有多种,例如第一像素组110和第二像素组120均包括红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素。在其他实施例中,第一像素组110和第二像素组120还可以包括黄色子像素等。
请一并参阅图3和图4,图4是本申请第一方面实施例提供的一种折叠显示面板10的层结构示意图。
如图3和图4所示,折叠显示面板10的层结构包括:衬底11;驱动器件层12,位于衬底11,驱动电路200设置于驱动器件层12;第一电极层13,位于驱动器件层12背离衬底11的一侧,第一电极层13包括位于弯折区TA的第一电极500及位于非弯折区PA的第二电极(图中未示出);连接线层14,位于第一电极层13和驱动器件层12之间,连接线层14包括第一连接线300,各第一驱动电路210通过第一连接线300连接各第一电极500。
在这些可选的实施例中,通过增加连接线层14能够实现位于弯折区TA的第一电极500和位于非弯折区PA的第一驱动电路210的连接。连接线层14为金属走线层,能够保证弯折区TA具有良好的抗弯折性能。
可选的,折叠显示面板10还包括:第一无机绝缘层16,位于驱动器件层12朝向衬底11的一侧。
驱动器件层12的设置方式有多种,如图4所示,例如驱动器件层12包括有源层12a和若干导电层,若干导电层包括第一导电层12b、第二导电层12c和第三导电层12d。有源层12a、第一导电层12b之间及相邻的导电层之间均设置有第二无机绝缘层17。示例性的,驱动电路200包括晶体管T和存储电容C。晶体管T包括半导体b、栅极g、源极s及漏极d。存储电容C包括第一极板c1和第二极板c2。作为一个示例,栅极g及第一极板c1可以位于第一导电层12b,第二极板c2可以位于第二导电层12c,源极s和漏极d可以位于第三导电层12d。可选的,驱动器件层12还可以包括数据信号线(Data line)、电源信号线(Vdd line)、参考电压信号线(Vref line)、扫描 信号线(Scan line)和发光控制信号线(Emit line)中的至少一者。
可选的,可折叠显示面板10还包括控制器(图中未示出),控制器用于控制弯折区TA和非弯折区PA相互独立显示。例如,控制器用于分别控制第一驱动电路210和第二驱动电路220相互独立运行。由于弯折区TA和非弯折区PA的层结构不同,通过控制器控制弯折区TA和非弯折区PA相互独立显示,能够提高可折叠显示面板10的整体显示效果。例如,可折叠显示面板10选用双gamma系统,控制器相互独立地控制弯折区TA和非弯折区PA的数据信号线。
可选的,第二无机绝缘层17为一层或多层,例如第二无机绝缘层17包括第一分层17a、第二分层17b和第三分层17c,第一分层17a位于有源层12a和第一导电层12b之间,第二分层17b位于第一导电层12b和第二导电层12c之间,第三分层17c位于第二导电层12c和第三导电层12d之间。
由于弯折区TA未设置驱动电路200,因此弯折区TA的第一导电层12b、第二导电层12c和第三导电层12d可以做挖孔处理。弯折区TA的第一导电层12b、第二导电层12c和第三导电层12d之间无需相互绝缘,那么第二无机绝缘层17也可以在弯折区TA做挖孔处理。第一导电层12b、第二导电层12c和第三导电层12d上的挖孔和第二无机绝缘层17上的挖孔形成位于驱动器件层12的第一通孔,即驱动器件层12包括位于弯折区TA的第一通孔。

第一无机绝缘层16例如包括氧化硅层和/或氮化硅层,第二无机绝缘层17例如包括氧化硅层和/或氮化硅层。
可选的,可折叠显示面板10还包括:第二平坦化层18,位于连接线层14和第一电极层13之间;像素定义层19,位于第一电极层13背离连接线层14的一侧。像素定义层19包括本体部和像素开口,各第一电极500和第二电极与各像素开口对应设置,像素开口用于填充发光材料以实现可折叠显示面板10的发光显示。
