显示屏幕的下边框受扇形区(Fanout)走线等的影响,下边框的宽度通常比左右边框的宽度较宽。相关技术中,将信号线设置两层柔性层聚酰亚胺(Polyimide,PI)层,如第一柔性层和第二柔性层之间,通过在位于两层柔性层上方的驱动电路层中设置转接孔,该转接孔暴露信号线,利用在该转接孔中形成转接金属层来进行电源电压的传输。然而,在该方案中,于转接孔中形成的转接金属层通常与第二柔性层直接接触,外界水汽会沿着第二柔性层进入,影响显示屏幕的信赖性。
如图1、图7和图8所示,本公开实施方式中提供一种显示面板,包括第一柔性层120、信号线10、第二柔性层140、无机层150和第一导电层230,其中,第二柔性层140设于第一柔性层120的一侧;信号线10设于第一柔性层120和第二柔性层140之间,第二柔性层140中设有第一通孔141,第一通孔141暴露信号线10远离第一柔性层120的表面;无机层150覆盖第二柔性层140远离第一柔性层120的表面和第一通孔141的侧壁,无机层150中设有第二通孔151,第二通孔151在第一柔性层120上的正投影位于第一通孔141在第一柔性层120上的正投影之内,且第二通孔151暴露信号线10远离第一柔性层120的表面;第一导电层230包括转接线231,转接线231至少覆盖第二通孔151的侧壁和信号线10被第二通孔151暴露的表面。
本公开提供的显示面板,将信号线10设置于第一柔性层120和第二 柔性层140之间,有助于减小显示面板下边框的宽度。另外,无机层150覆盖第二柔性层140远离第一柔性层120的表面和第一通孔141的侧壁,也即将第二柔性层140予以包裹,该结构设计在减小显示面板边框的同时,有助于阻挡外界水汽的进入,避免对显示面板内器件造成腐蚀,以保证显示面板的信赖性。
