相关技术中,Micro OLED(Micro Organic Light-Emitting Diode,微型有机发光二极管)显示面板是近年来发展起来的显示面板,其包含的Micro OLED发光器件通常具有小于100μm的尺寸。其中,硅基OLED显示面板是较为常见的一种,硅基OLED不仅可以实现像素的有源寻址,并且可以通过半导体制造工艺实现在硅基底上制备包括像素电路、时序控制(TCON)电路、过电流保护(OCP)电路等CMOS电路,有利于减小系统体积,实现轻量化。
以硅基OLED显示面板为例,其可包括驱动背板和发光层,其中:发光功能层设于驱动背板一侧,且包括多个发光器件,该发光单元可包括一个或多个串联的OLED发光器件,每个发光器件均包括向背离驱动背板的方向依次层叠的第一电极(阳极)、发光层和第二电极(阴极),通过向第一电极和第二电极施加电信号,可驱动发光层发光,OLED发光器件的具体发光原理在此不再详述。
此外,各个发光器件的发光层,可以通过精细掩膜版(FMM)直接蒸镀形成,各发光器件的发光层间隔分布,独立发光,实现彩色显示。但是由于精细掩膜版制 造工艺的限制,难以实现高PPI(像素密度)。因此,还可通过单色光或白光配合彩膜实现彩色显示,即各发光器件共用同一连续的发光层,发光层可发白光或其它单色光,彩膜层具有多个与发光单元一一对应的滤光区,一滤光区和对应的发光单元可构成一子像素,多个子像素构成一像素,不同的滤光区可透过的光线的颜色可以不同,使得不同的子像素的发光颜色可以不同,同一像素包括多个颜色不同的子像素,例如,一像素可包括发光颜色分别为红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)的三种子像素。由此,可通过多个像素实现彩色显示。
但是,若发光层为连续的整层结构,使得一发光单元与周边的发光单元之间容易出现漏电,导致串色,下面结合附图对串色的原因进行分析:
如图1所示,每个发光单元可包括两个串联的发光器件,两个发光器件共用第一电极2a,且共用第二电极3a,第一电极2a和第二电极3a之间具有两层发光子层1a,两层发光子层1a通过电荷生成层4a串联成发光层。从图1和图2可以看出,正电荷(空穴)通过电荷生成层4a在相邻两个发光单元之间转移,而图2可以看出,在对应彩膜层5a中的红色滤光区R的发光单元发光时,由于漏电的影响,会使对应彩膜层5a中的绿色滤光区G的发光单元也发光,导致单个像素发光纯度降低,是整个显示面板的色域降低。
如图3所示,图3示出了同一像素中的红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)三种子像素同时点亮的光谱图(图3中a所示)以及分别点亮的光谱图(图3中b-c所示)。根据波长可以看出,当三种子像素分别点亮时,都有不同颜色的光从相邻的子像素逸出,例如,图3中的a所示,R子像素发红光时,对应于蓝光和绿光的波长处,存在波峰,即由蓝光和绿光发出。这导致整个显示面板的色域降低。根据测算,该显示面板色域指标(NTSC)仅为30%。
本公开实施方式提供了一种显示面板,如图4-图8所示,该显示面板可包括驱动背板1、第一电极层2、像素定义层3、导电屏蔽层4、发光层5、第二电极6和彩膜层7,其中:
驱动背板1包括衬底101、至少一层走线层103和平坦层104,走线层103设于衬底101一侧;平坦层104覆盖走线层103,平坦层104设有凹槽1041。
第一电极层2设于平坦层104背离衬底101的表面,且包括间隔分布的多个第一电极21,凹槽1041在平坦层104上的正投影位于第一电极21以外。像素定义层3设于平坦层104背离衬底101的表面,且露出各第一电极21;像素定义层3在凹槽1041处形成分隔槽32。导电屏蔽层4至少部分设于凹槽1041内。发光层5覆盖像素定义层3、第一电极21和导电屏蔽层4,且发光层5在分隔槽32处凹陷,且与导电屏蔽层4的至少部分区域直接接触。第二电极6覆盖发光层5。
本公开实施方式的显示面板,任一第一电极21与其对应的发光层5和第二电极 6可构成一发光单元001。由于导电屏蔽层4位于凹槽1041内,且与第一电极21绝缘设置,同时,导电屏蔽层4与发光层5直接接触,而凹槽1041在平坦层104上的正投影位于第一电极21以外,从而可通过导电屏蔽层4吸收发光层5中产生的沿第一电极21的分布方向移动的载流子(例如空穴),防止发光单元001之间相互漏电,从而改善串色。同时,凹槽1041使得像素定义层3具有分隔槽32,而分隔槽32可对各发光单元001进行分隔,且发光层5在分隔槽32处凹陷,有利于使发光层5在分隔槽32处减薄甚至断开,也可防止相邻的发光单元001之间相互漏电,改善串色。
下面对本公开显示面板实现显示功能的结构进行详细说明:
如图4、图5和图8所示,驱动背板1可包括像素区110和外围区120,外围区120位于像素区110外,并可围绕像素区110设置。驱动背板1用于形成驱动发光单元001发光的驱动电路,驱动电路可包括像素电路和外围电路,其中:
像素电路和发光单元001的数量均可以是多个,且像素电路位于像素区110内,像素电路可以是2T1C、4T2C、6T1C或7T1C等像素电路,只要能驱动发光单元001发光即可,在此不对其结构做特殊限定。像素电路的数量与第一电极21的数量相同,且一一对应地与第一电极21连接,以便分别控制各个发光单元001发光。其中,nTmC表示一个像素电路包括n个晶体管(用字母“T”表示)和m个电容(用字母“C”表示)。
外围电路位于外围区120,且与像素电路连接。外围电路可包括发光控制电路、栅极102驱动电路和源极驱动电路以及电源电路中的至少一个,当然还可以包括其它电路,只要能通过像素电路驱动发光单元001发光即可,同时,外围电路还可包括与第二电极6连接的电源电路,用于向第二电极6输入电源信号。外围电路可通过像素电路向第一电极21输入驱动信号,并向第二电极6输入电源信号,从而使发光单元001发光。
在本公开的一些实施方式中,如图4和图8所示,驱动背板1可包括衬底101,衬底101可为硅基底,上述的驱动电路可通过半导体工艺形成于硅基底上,例如,像素电路和外围电路均可包括多个晶体管,可通过掺杂工艺在硅基底中形成阱区1011,阱区1011具有间隔分布的两个掺杂区1012。同时,以一个阱区1011为例:驱动背板1一侧设有栅极102,即栅极102在驱动背板1上的正投影位于两掺杂区1012之间。驱动背板1还可包括至少一层走线层103和平坦层104,走线层103设于衬底101一侧,平坦层104覆盖走线层103,至少一走线层103各掺杂区1012连接,且包括连接于同一阱区1011的两掺杂区1012的源极1031S和漏极1031D。
举例而言:走线层103的数量为两层,且位于平坦层104内,例如,走线层103包括第一走线层1031和第二走线层1032,第一走线层1031设于衬底101一侧,且与衬底101之间设有平坦层104的一部分;第一走线层1031包括源极1031S和漏极1031D,同一晶体管的源极1031S和漏极1031D与同一阱区1011的两掺杂区 1012分别连接,从而可通过一阱区1011及其对应的栅极102、源极1031S和漏极1031D形成一晶体管。第二走线层1032设于第一走线层1031背离衬底101的一侧,其与第一走线层1031之间被平坦层104的一部分分隔,且第二走线层1032的至少部分区域与第一走线层1031连接;通过各走线层103对晶体管进行连接,可形成驱动电路,具体连接线路和走线图案视电路结构而定,在此不做特殊限定。
各走线层103可通过溅射工艺形成。平坦层104的材料可采用氧化硅、氮氧化硅或氮化硅,通过多次沉积和抛光工艺逐层形成,也就是说,平坦层104可由多个绝缘膜层层叠而成。
如图4和图8所示,显示面板的各发光单元001阵列分布于驱动背板1一侧,例如,各发光单元001设于平坦层104背离衬底101的表面。每个发光单元001可包括第一电极21、第二电极6以及位于第一电极21和第二电极6之间的发光层5,第一电极21和第二电极6均可与走线层103连接,通过驱动背板1向第一电极21施加驱动信号,向第二电极6施加电源信号,从而驱动发光层5发光。
为了实现彩色显示,可以使各发光单元001均发出相同颜色的光线,配合位于第二电极6背离驱动背板1一侧的彩膜层7,实现彩色显示,本公开的实施方式以此种彩色显示的方案为例进行说明。当然,也可以使各个发光单元001分别独立发光,且不同的发光单元001的发光颜色可以不同。
在本公开的一些实施方式中,如图4和图6所示,可通过第一电极层2、像素定义层3、发光层5和第二电极6形成多个发光单元001,其中:
第一电极层2设于驱动背板1一侧面,例如,第一电极层2设于平坦层104背离衬底101的表面。第一电极层2可包括多个间隔分布的第一电极21,且各第一电极21在驱动背板1上的正投影位于像素区110,且与像素电路连接,一个第一电极21连接一个像素电路,举例而言,第一电极21可与第二走线层1032连接。
第一电极层2可为单层或多层结构,其材料在此不做特殊限定。举例而言,第一电极层2可包括向背离驱动背板1的方向依次层叠的第一层201、第二层202、第三层203和第四层204,其中,第一层201和第三层203可采用相同的金属材料,例如钛;第四层204可采用ITO(氧化铟锡)等透明导电材料;第二层202可采用与第一层201、第三层203和第四层204不同的金属材料,且电阻率低于第一层201和第三层203,例如,第二层202的材料可为铝。
如图4和图6所示,像素定义层3与第一电极层2设于驱动背板1的同一表面,即平坦层104背离衬底101的表面,且像素定义层3露出各第一电极21,具体而言,像素定义层3设有露出第一电极21的开口31,通过像素定义层3及其开口31可限定出各个发光单元001的范围。像素定义层3的材料可以是氧化硅、氮化硅等绝缘材料,在此不做特殊限定。
任一开口31在驱动背板1上的正投影位于其露出的第一电极21以内,也就是 说,开口31不大于其露出的第一电极21。如图6所示,开口31的形状可以是矩形、五边形、六边形等多边形,但不一定是正多边形,开口31的形状还可以是椭圆形等其它形状,在此不做特殊限定。
如图4和图7所示,发光层5覆盖像素定义层3和第一电极21,发光层5位于一开口31内且与第一电极层2叠的区域用于形成发光单元001,也就是说,各个发光单元001可共用同一发光层5,也就是说,发光层5位于不同开口31内的部分属于不同的发光单元001。此外,由于各发光单元001共用发光层5,使得不同的发光单元001的发光颜色相同。
在本公开的一些实施方式中,如图7所示,发光单元001可包括多个发光器件0011,每个发光器件0011均包括第一电极21、第二电极6以及第一电极21和第二电极6之间的多个发光子层51,同一发光单元001的各发光器件0011可共用同一第一电极21和同一第二电极6,也就是说,同一发光单元001可以只有一个第一电极21和一个第二电极6。
举例而言:如图7所示,发光层5可包括沿背离驱动背板1的方向依次串联的多层发光子层51,至少一发光子层51通过电荷生成层52与相邻的一发光子层51串联。在向第一电极21和第二电极6施加电信号时,各发光子层51均可发光,且不同的发光子层51可用于发出不同颜色的光线。
进一步的,如图7所示,任一发光子层51可包括沿背离驱动背板1的方向分布的空穴注入层(HIL)、空穴传输层(HTL)、发光材料层(EL)、电子传输层(ETL)和电子注入层(EIL),具体发光原理在此不再详述,其中,空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子传输层和电子注入层的数量在此不做特殊限定,且各发光子层51可共用空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子传输层和电子注入层中的一个或多个。同时,至少有两个相邻的发光子层51之间可设有电荷生成层52,从而将两发光子层51串联。
在本公开的一些实施方式中,如图7所示,发光层5可包括三个颜色不同的发光子层51,即发红光的第一发光子层51、发绿光的第二发光子层51和发蓝光的第三发光子层51,第一发光子层51、第二发光子层51和第三发光子层51同时发光时,发光层5可发白光。其中,第一发光子层51和第二发光子层51共用空穴注入层、空穴传输层、电子传输层和电子注入层,且第二发光子层51的发光材料层设于第一发光子层51的发光材料层背离驱动背板1的表面,从而使第一发光子层51和第二发光子层51直接串联。第二发光子层51背离驱动背板1的表面可设有电荷生成层52。第三发光子层51与第一发光子层51和第二发光子层51共用电子注入层,第三发光子层51的空穴注入层设于电荷生成层52背离驱动背板1的表面,从而可将第三发光子层51与第二发光子层51串联。
如图4和图8所示,第二电极6覆盖发光层5,且第二电极6在驱动背板1上的正投影可覆盖像素区110,并延伸至外围区120内。各个发光单元001可共用同一 第二电极6。第二电极6与第一电极21之间的电压差达到能使发光层5发光的压差时,可使发光层5发光,因此,可通过控制输入至第二电极6的电源信号和输入至第一电极21的驱动信号的电压来控制发光层5发光。
如图4和图8所示,彩膜层7设于第二电极6背离驱动背板1的一侧,且包括多个滤光部71,各第一电极21与各滤光部71在垂直于衬底101的方向上一一相对设置,即一滤光部71在平坦层104上的正投影与一第一电极21至少部分重合。各个滤光部71中至少包括三种颜色的滤光部71,例如,可透红光的滤光部71、可透过绿光的滤光部71和可透过蓝光的滤光部71。各发光单元001发出的光线经过滤光部71的滤光作用后,可得到不同颜色的单色光,从而实现彩色显示,其中,一滤光部71与其对应的发光单元001可构成一子像素,任一子像素发光的颜色即为其滤光部71透过的光线的颜色,多个子像素可构成一像素,同一像素的各子像素的发光颜色不同。
滤光部71在平坦层104上的正投影的形状可与像素定义层3的开口31的形状相同,且各开口31在平坦层104上的正投影一一对应地位于各滤光部71在平坦层104上的正投影以内。
如图4和图8所示,彩膜层7还可包括分隔滤光部71的遮光部72,遮光部72不透光,并遮挡两发光单元001之间的区域。滤光部71可直接采用遮光材料与滤光部71间隔设置;或者,在本公开的一些实施方式中,可以使相邻的滤光部71在对应于相邻两发光单元001之间的区域层叠设置,且二者透光的光线的颜色不同,从而使得层叠区域不透光。
此外,在本公开的一些实施方式中,在发光层5发出白光的基础上,为了提高画面亮度,彩膜层7还可包括透明部,在垂直于衬底101的方向上,一透明部可与一发光单元001相对设置,使得彩膜层7还可透过白光,可通过白光增加亮度。
为了提高出光效率,可在第二电极6背离驱动背板1的一侧覆盖光提取层11,以提高亮度,进一步的,光提取层11可直接覆盖第二电极6背离驱动背板1的表面。
为了便于将第二电极6与驱动电路连接,在本公开的一些实施方式中,第一电极层2还包括转接环,转接环在驱动背板1上的正投影位于外围区120,转接环可与外围电路连接,且围绕于像素区110外。第二电极6可与转接环连接,从而可通过转接环将第二电极6与外围电路连接起来,以便由外围电路向第二电极6施加驱动信号。转接环的图案可与像素区110内的第一电极21的图案相同,以便提高第一电极层2的图案的均一性。
如图4和图8所示,在本公开的一些实施方式中,本公开的显示面板还可包括第一封装层8,其可设于第二电极6背离驱动背板1的一侧,且位于彩膜层7和第二电极6之间,用于阻隔外界水、氧的侵蚀。第一封装层8可为单层或多层结构,例如,第一封装层8可包括向背离驱动背板1的方向依次层叠的第一封装子层81、第 二封装子层82和第三封装子层83,其中,第一封装子层81和第二封装子层82的材料可以是氮化硅、氧化硅等无机绝缘材料,且第二封装子层82可采用ALD(Atomic layer deposition,原子层沉积)工艺形成;第三封装子层83的材料可为有机材料,其可采用MLD(Molecular Layer Deposition,分子层沉积)工艺形成。当然,第一封装层8还可以采用其它结构,在此不对第一封装层8的结构做特殊限定。
此外,在本公开的一些实施方式中,本公开的显示面板还可包括透明盖板10,其可覆盖于彩膜层7背离驱动背板1的一侧,透明盖板10可以是单层或多层结构,其材料在此不做特殊限定。
在本公开的一些实施方式中,本公开的显示面板还可包括第二封装层9,其可覆盖于彩膜层7背离驱动背板1的表面,以便实现平坦化,便于覆盖透明盖板10,且可以提高封装效果,进一步阻隔水、氧。第二封装层9可以是单层或多层结构,且可以包括氮化硅、氧化硅等无机材料,也可以包括有机材料,在此不对第二封装层9的结构做特殊限定。
下面对本公开的显示面板解决串色问题的方案进行详细说明:
结合上文对相关技术的分析,由于各个发光单元001共用发光层5,一发光单元001的载流子(例如空穴)可能会通过电荷生成层52等膜层向其它发光单元001移动,特别是向相邻的发光单元001移动,即发生漏电,影响发光的纯度。为此,如图4和图8所示,可在位于平坦层104和发光层5之间,且位于相邻两发光单元001之间的区域设置导电屏蔽层4,导电屏蔽层4与第一电极21绝缘,但可导电。可通过导电屏蔽层4吸收载流子,防止载流子在发光单元001之间移动,从而避免因漏电而导致的串色。
如图4和图8所示,导电屏蔽层4可为单层或多层结构,举例而言,在本公开的一些实施方式中,导电屏蔽层4包括向背离驱动背板1的方向依次层叠的第一导电层401、第二导电层402和第三导电层403,第一导电层401和第三导电层403的材料可与第一电极层2的第二层202和第四层204相同,例如,第一导电层401和第三导电层403的材料均为金属钛,第二导电层402的材料可与第一电极层2的第三电极层的材料相同,例如,第二导电层402的材料为金属铝。由此,可利用形成第一电极层2的至少部分工艺形成导电屏蔽层4,以便节约成本,同时,可使导电屏蔽层4的导电性能与第一电极层2相似,避免对第一电极21的正常发光造成影响。
如图4和图6所示,可使像素定义层3对应于发光单元001以外的区域,即开口31以外的区域,形成分隔槽32,使发光层5在分隔槽32处凹陷,有利于减薄,甚至截断发光层5中的电荷生成层52和至少部分发光子层51,从而进一步防止漏电。
为了在像素定义层3形成分隔槽32,如图4和图21所示,可在驱动背板1的平 坦层104设置凹槽1041,凹槽1041在平坦层104上的正投影位于第一电极21以外,像素定义层3可在凹槽1041处形成分隔槽32,发光层5在分隔槽32处凹陷,相应的,也在凹槽1041处凹陷。
导电屏蔽层4的至少部分区域位于凹槽1041内,且与第一电极21绝缘设置,例如,导电屏蔽层4与第一电极21间隔分布,而互不连接。同时,导电屏蔽层4至多被像素定义层3覆盖一部分,因而可与凹陷至凹槽1041内的发光层5直接接触,从而可导出两发光单元001之间的发光层5的载流子。此外,导电屏蔽层4的厚度可小于凹槽1041的深度,保证发光层5能向凹槽1041内凹陷,有利于减薄,甚至截断发光层5中的电荷生成层52和至少部分发光子层51,从而进一步防止漏电。
如图4、图20和图21所示,在本公开的一些实施方式中,像素定义层3的厚度小于凹槽1041的深度,且在凹槽1041处凹陷形成分隔槽32,分隔槽32的底面覆盖凹槽1041的底面,即分隔槽32在深度方向上不贯穿像素定义层3。为了避免凹槽1041露出走线层103,可使各个走线层103均位于凹槽1041底面靠近衬底101的一侧,而不被凹槽1041露出。同时,导电屏蔽层4的至少部分区域位于分隔槽32内,例如,导电屏蔽层4至少部分层叠于分隔槽32的底面,即导电屏蔽层4至少部分设于分隔槽32的底面背离衬底101的一侧。此外,位于分隔槽32的底部上的导电屏蔽层4的面积小于分隔槽32的底面的面积,即,导电屏蔽层4不完全遮盖分隔槽32的底面。
如图4和图20所示,为了确保分隔槽32能够使发光层5凹陷,可使分隔槽32的深度L为800μm-1000μm,例如800μm、900μm或1000μm。需要说明的是,分隔槽32的底面并不限定为平面,可以是曲面或不规则的表面,分隔槽32的深度是指分隔槽32的底面距离衬底101距离最近的一点与衬底101之间的距离。
如图8和图25所示,在本公开的另一些实施方式中,像素定义层3可沿凹槽1041内凹陷,但露出凹槽1041的底面的至少部分区域,而可以覆盖凹槽1041的侧壁。导电屏蔽层4设于凹槽1041的底面,且被像素定义层3露出至少部分区域,以使凹陷至凹槽1041内的发光层5能与导电屏蔽层4直接接触。由于导电屏蔽层4和第一电极层21均层叠于平坦层104上,因而导电屏蔽层4和第一电极层21可以通过相同的工艺同时形成,以简化工艺。当然,也可以分别独立形成。
在本公开的其它实施方式中,像素定义层3可位于凹槽1041的边界外,而不延伸至凹槽1041内,即像素定义层3不覆盖凹槽1041的侧壁和底面,使得像素定义层3在凹槽1041处形成贯穿像素定义层3的分隔槽32,分隔槽32的侧壁可与凹槽1041的侧壁平齐或者位于凹槽1041的侧壁外侧,从而露出凹槽1041。导电屏蔽层4可设于凹槽1041的底面,且不被像素定义层3遮盖,以使凹陷至凹槽1041内的发光层5能与导电屏蔽层4直接接触。由于导电屏蔽层4和第一电极层21均层叠于平坦层104上,因而导电屏蔽层4和第一电极层21可以通过相同的工艺同时形成,以 简化工艺。当然,也可以分别独立形成。
为了最大程度的避免漏电,可使发光单元001被导电屏蔽层4和分隔槽32围绕,以上述将导电屏蔽层4层叠于分隔槽32的底面的实施方式为例,如图4和图6所示,在本公开的一些实施方式中,分隔槽32包括至少一个环形的槽体321,一槽体321围绕于一第一电极21外;相应的,导电屏蔽层4可包括至少一个屏蔽环41,一槽体321内设有一屏蔽环41,屏蔽环41可层叠于槽体321的底面。可通过槽体321和槽体321内的屏蔽环41围绕一第一电极21,即围绕一发光单元001。同时,各屏蔽环41可与第二电极6连接,以便导出导电屏蔽层4吸收的载流子,使得该发光单元001难以向相邻的发光单元001漏电。
屏蔽环41的宽度可与凹槽1041的宽度之比小于4:5,使得屏蔽环41与凹槽1041的侧壁之间具有一定的距离,当然,该宽度之比也可以是更大或者更小,屏蔽环41的宽度为屏蔽环41的内壁和外壁之间的距离。同时,导电屏蔽层4的厚度可大于像素定义层3的厚度。此外,可使导电屏蔽层4可位于第一电极21靠近衬底101的一侧,即导电屏蔽层4不超出凹槽1041,也即,导电屏蔽层4位于平坦层104设置第一电极21的表面靠近衬底101的一侧。
进一步的,如图6所示,分隔槽32可包括多个槽体321,导电屏蔽层4可包括多个屏蔽环41,槽体321和屏蔽环41的数量可与第一电极21的数量相同,每个槽体321内设有一个屏蔽环41,且二者可以同心设置的环形结构。每个槽体321及其内的屏蔽环41可围绕于一第一电极21外。
需要说明的是,对于因凹陷至凹槽1041内而形成的分隔槽32,凹槽1041的形状直接限制分隔槽32的形状,因此,若分隔槽32包括上述的多个环形的槽体321,则凹槽1041也包括多个环形的槽体。
如图11所示,在本公开的一些实施方式中,分隔槽32的底面可包括中间区322和位于中间区322外的边缘区323,导电屏蔽层4在分隔槽32的底面的正投影与中间区322重合,中间区322的厚度大于边缘区323的厚度,也就是说,在分隔槽32的底面中,被导电屏蔽层4覆盖的区域的厚度大于未被导电屏蔽层4覆盖的区域的厚度。
如图12所示,在本公开的另一些实施方式中,边缘区323的至少部分区域位于中间区322背离衬底101的一侧,也就是说,边缘区323与衬底101之间的最大距离大于中间区322与衬底101之间的最大距离,使得中间区322对于边缘区323向衬底101凹陷。此外,边缘区323的形状可为向中间区322背离衬底101的因此而凸起的曲面,且连接于分隔槽32的侧壁和中间区322之间。
进一步的,为了形成上述中间区322对于边缘区323向衬底101凹陷的结构,可使平坦层104的凹槽1041的底面形成中部和中部两侧的侧部,侧部向中部背离衬底101的一侧凸起,使得中部相对于侧部凹陷,在形成像素定义层3时,覆盖凹槽 1041底面的像素定义层3形成与凹槽1041的底面相匹配的形貌,即形成上述的中间区322和边缘区323。当然,在凹槽1041的底面为平面或其它形状时,也可通过对凹槽1041内的像素定义层3的厚度的控制,形成上述的中间区322和边缘区323。
在垂直于衬底101的方向上,屏蔽环41可以是凹凸不平的结构,举例而言:
如图13所示,在本公开的一些实施方式中,屏蔽环41背离衬底101的表面可设有沿周向延伸的凸棱4011,屏蔽环41背离衬底101的表面位于凸棱4011两侧的区域可为平面。同时,凸棱4011与屏蔽环41为一体结构,其可以是第三导电层403凸起而形成,第三导电层403凸起可以是其自身厚度增大而形成,也可以是因第一导电层401和第二导电层402凸起二形成。
如图14所示,在本公开的另一些实施方式中,屏蔽环41背离衬底101的表面设有上述的凸棱4011,还可设有沿周向延伸的凹坑4012,凸棱4011和凹坑4012可沿屏蔽环41的径向分布,即由屏蔽环41的内壁相外壁分布。例如,凹坑4012的数量为两个,且同心设置,凸棱4011的数量为一个,且位于两个凹坑4012之间。当然,凸棱4011和凹坑4012的数量并不限于此,只要沿屏蔽环41径向分布即可。
为了便于导出导电屏蔽层4吸收的载流子,可将导电屏蔽层4与外围电路连接。同时,可向导电屏蔽层4输入电源信号,该电源信号与输入至第二电极6的电源信号的电压差小于能使发光层5发光的启亮压差,从而避免导电屏蔽层4与第二电极6之间的发光层5发光,而只有第一电极21与第二电极6之间的发光层5发光。举例而言,导电屏蔽层4可与第二电极6连接,虽然导电屏蔽层4和第二电极6之间也存在发光层5,但由于导电屏蔽层4和第二电极6连接,与第二电极6的电位相同,压差为零,因而不会驱动发光层5发光。当然,导电屏蔽层4也可直接通过外围电路接地,或者接入其它信号,只要能导出载流子,避免相邻发光单元001之间漏电,且不会使发光层5在对应于导电屏蔽层4的区域发光即可。
下面对屏蔽环41与第二电极6连接的方式进行详细说明:
在本公开的一些实施方式中,如图6所示,为了便于将屏蔽环41与第二电极6连接,可将使屏蔽环41连成一体结构,相应的,分隔槽32的各槽体321可连通成一体结构。举例而言,导电屏蔽层4还可包括连接体42,连接体42在驱动背板1上的正投影由像素区110延伸到外围区120,且连接体42与至少一屏蔽环41连接,在对应于外围区120的区域与第二电极6连接;连接体42的数量可为多个,且围绕像素区110分布,每个连接体42可连接一个屏蔽环41,由于各屏蔽环41连为一体,因而每个连接体42都与各屏蔽环41电连接。连接体42的结构可以是导线等,在此不做特殊限定,只要能起到导电连接的作用即可。
进一步的,发光层5在驱动背板1上的正投影覆盖像素区110并延伸至外围区 120内,且与外围区120的边界具有一定的距离。第二电极6在驱动背板1上的正投影的边界位于发光层5的边界以外;连接体42可延伸至发光层5的边界外,并与第二电极6位于发光层5的边界外的区域直接接触,从而使第二电极6通过连接体42与屏蔽环41连接。
如图9所示,在本公开的另一些实施方式中,至少一部分屏蔽环41可通过贯穿发光层5的第一过孔H1与第二电极6连接,至少一第一过孔H1在平坦层104的正投影位于相邻两第一电极21之间。若各个屏蔽环41为一体结构,则至少只要有一个屏蔽环41与第二电极6连接即可,当然,可以设置多个第一过孔H1,将多个屏蔽环41与第二电极6连接,但可以用于将每个屏蔽环41均与第二电极6连接,各个第一过孔H1在驱动背板1上的正投影均位于像素区110内。
如图10所示,在本公开的其它实施方式中,至少一走线层103可包括连接部1032a,例如,第二走线层1032可包括连接部1032a。连接部1032a的电位可与第二电极6相同,例如,连接部1032a可延伸至外围区,并与第二电极6连接,也可以向连接部1032a输入电位与与输入至第二电极6的电源信号的电位相等的信号。同时,平坦层104内可设有与连接部1032a连接第二过孔H2,第二过孔H2可与屏蔽环41连接,从而将屏蔽环41与第二电极6连接;或者,使屏蔽环41与第二电极6的电位相等,从而可防止屏蔽环41与第二电极6之间的发光层5发光。
需要说明的是,若导电屏蔽层4层叠于像素定义层3上,即层叠于分隔槽32的底面上,则第二过孔H2可贯穿像素定义层3。若导电屏蔽层4设于凹槽1041的底面,则第二过孔H2无需贯穿像素定义层3。
进一步的,由于分隔槽32存在,使得第二电极6在分隔槽32处凹陷,形成凹陷区61,凹陷区61的深度不大于分隔槽32的深度。同时,由于分隔槽32内设有导电屏蔽层4的至少部分区域,使得凹陷区61的底面对应于导电屏蔽层4的区域向背离导电屏蔽层4的方向凸起,且凸起的高度小于分隔槽32的深度。
下面对本公开显示面板的效果进行说明:
如图15所示,图15示出了导电屏蔽层4吸收载流子的电路原理,可以看出,相邻两发光单元001之间的载流子(空穴)被导电屏蔽层4吸收,避免了两发光单元001之间漏电。
如图16所示,图16示出了红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)三种子像素同时点亮的光谱图以及分别点亮的光谱图。与图3比较的相关技术的光谱图比较,可以看出,在本公开的显示面板中,当三种子像素分别点亮时,不同颜色的光明显减少,使得整个显示面板的色域提升。根据测算,该显示面板的色域指标(NTSC)可达到80%。
如图17所示,图17示出了红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)三种子像素的电压-亮度 曲线,其中,R、G和B曲线为本公开一实施方式中三种子像素的曲线,R-071、G-071和B-071是相关技术中三种子像素的曲线。图18-图20分别示出了红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)三种子像素的电压-色坐标曲线,其中,样本-R-x、样本-R-y,样本-G-x、样本-G-y、样本-B-x、样本-B-y曲线为本公开一实施方式中三种子像素的色坐标曲线;R-x、R-y,G-x、G-y、B-x、B-y曲线是相关技术中三种子像素的色坐标曲线。
由图18-图20可以看出,相关技术中的显示面板,在低压下(虚线左侧)出现明显的亮度和色坐标变化,且随电压变化伴随跳变和翻转问题,使得低灰阶下Gamma调试困难,较容易出现彩条问题。本公开实施方式的显示面板,各个单色色坐标随电压变化的幅度明显减小,有利于Gamma调试,且曲线的过度平滑,无跳变问题。
综上,可以看出,本公开的显示面板的一些实施方式可以防止漏电,从而避免串色问题。
