- the light for example, when the incident angle of the light ray L3 is less than the critical angle of total reflection, refraction will occur, and the refracted light rays L4 and L5 will also enter the user's eyes through the lens element 40.
- the light extraction efficiency of the display panel is significantly improved.
- the lens element 40 includes a first lens 45 and a second lens 47 arranged in a stack.
- the first lens 45 is arranged adjacent to the encapsulation layer 30
- the second lens 47 Located on the side of the first lens 45 away from the encapsulation layer 30 .

Description
本申请涉及电子显示技术领域,特别涉及一种显示面板与显示装置。
OLED显示装置由于具有自发光、驱动电压低、发光效率高、响应时间短、清晰度与对比度高、近180°视角、使用温度范围宽、可实现柔性显示以及大面积全色显示等诸多优点,在显示领域、照明领域及智能穿戴等领域有着广泛地应用。
但是,在传统的OLED显示装置中,由于光线最终需从高折射率的盖板(CG)射入低折射率的空气中。当光线在盖板界面处的入射角度达到或大于全反射临界角时,会发生全内反射,导致显示装置的出光效率低。

本申请实施例提供一种显示面板100,请参照图1,包括:
衬底10;
发光层20,设置于所述衬底10的一侧,包括间隔设置的多个发光单元22(图中只示出了一个发光单元22),相邻的发光单元22之间设置有像素限定层28;

多个透镜元件40,设置于所述封装层30远离所述发光层20的一侧,所述透镜元件40在所述衬底10上的投影与所述像素限定层28在所述衬底10上的投影至少部分交叠(即,透镜元件40位于像素限定层28的上方);
透光层60,设置于所述封装层30远离所述发光层20的一侧,所述透光层60的至少部分位于相邻的透镜元件40之间,所述透光层60在所述衬底10上的投影与所述发光单元22在所述衬底10上的投影至少部分交叠(即,透光层60位于发光单元22的上方),以供发光单元22发出的光通过而进入用户的眼睛;
其中,所述透镜元件40具有与所述透光层60接触的侧表面41,所述透镜元件40在所述侧表面41处的折射率小于所述透光层60的折射率。
在上述实施例中,通过设置透镜元件40,有效提升了显示面板的出光效果。具体的,发光单元22发出的光一部分会直接透过透光层60进入用户 的眼睛,另一部分则会照射到透镜元件40的侧表面41上。在上述侧表面41处,当光线(比如,光线L1)的入射角大于全反射临界角时,则会发生全反射,反射形成的光线L2直接经透光层60进入用户的眼睛;当光线(比如,光线L3)的入射角小于全反射临界角时,则会发生折射,折射后的光线L4、L5、L6、L7经透镜元件40也会进入用户的眼睛。由此,显著提升了显示面板的出光效率。
在一些实施例中,如图1,所述透镜元件40邻近所述封装层30的表面处设置有第一反射层42,所述透镜元件40远离所述封装层30的表面处设置有第二反射层44,所述第一反射层42与所述第二反射层44面对面设置。
上述第一反射层42和第二反射层44可将自侧表面41处折射入透镜元件40的光线作一次或多次反射后发射至用户的眼睛。比如,图1中的光线L3先是折射入透镜元件40形成光线L4,被第二反射层44反射后形成光线L5,之后再被第一反射层42反射后形成光线L6;光线L6在侧表面41处折射,形成光线L7并向上发出而进入用户的眼睛。
继续参照图1,在一些实施例中,在所述透镜元件40与所述封装层30之间设置有凸起物50,所述凸起物50具有邻近所述封装层30的底表面和邻近所述透镜元件40的顶表面,所述顶表面朝向所述透镜元件40外凸,所述第一反射层42设置在所述顶表面上。

在一些实施例中,所述第一反射层42呈折线状,该折线由两段或更多段直线连接而成,如图1、图3。在一些实施例中,所述第一反射层42呈弧线状,如图4、图5。该弧线可以是标准的圆弧,也可以是不规则的曲线。不管是呈折线状还是呈弧线状,所述第一反射层42均优选呈外凸的形状。即, 沿从第一反射层42中心到第一反射层42边缘的方向,所述第一反射层42与所述封装层30之间的距离逐渐减小。
在一些实施例中,所述第一反射层42和/或所述第二反射层44的材料包括/是银(Ag)。
在一些实施例中,发光单元22分为用于发射红光的红色发光单元、用于发射绿光的绿色发光单元与用于发射蓝光的蓝色发光单元。每一发光单元22包括发光材料层23以及位于发光材料层23两侧的两个电极。图1中只示出了位于发光材料层23下方的阳极25。
继续参照图1,在一些实施例中,所述显示面板100还包括多个间隔的黑矩阵块70,多个黑矩阵块70组成黑矩阵(BM)。所述黑矩阵块70位于所述透镜元件40远离所述封装层30的一侧,所述黑矩阵块70在所述衬底10上的投影与所述透镜元件40在所述衬底10上的投影至少部分交叠,即,所述黑矩阵块70位于所述透镜元件40的上方。
所述黑矩阵块70具有邻近所述透镜元件40的下表面和远离所述透镜元件40的上表面,所述第二反射层44与黑矩阵块70的所述下表面相接触(或者说第二反射层44贴合于黑矩阵块70的下表面设置)。
在一些实施例中,所述第二反射层44呈折线状,该折线由两段或更多段直线连接而成,如图1、图3。在一些实施例中,所述第二反射层44呈弧线状,如图4、图5。该弧线可以是标准的圆弧,也可以是不规则的曲线。不管是呈折线状还是呈弧线状,所述第二反射层44均优选呈外凸的形状。即,沿从第二反射层44中心到第二反射层44边缘的方向,所述第二反射层44与所述封装层30之间的距离逐渐增大。
在一些实施例中,沿远离所述封装层30的方向,所述透镜元件40的宽度逐渐减小。即,透镜元件40呈上窄下宽的形状。在一些实施例中,所述侧表面41与所述封装层30所成的坡度角大于等于45度且小于90度。较优 的,所述坡度角为大于等于45度且小于等于70度。更优的,所述坡度角为55度左右。经多次实验验证,透镜元件40呈上窄下宽的形状以及上述坡度角的设置均有利于进一步提升显示面板的出光效率。
在一些实施例中,所述透镜元件40包括层叠设置的第一透镜45与第二透镜47,所述第一透镜45邻近所述封装层30设置,所述第二透镜47位于所述第一透镜45远离所述封装层30的一侧。透镜元件40分为第一透镜45与第二透镜47两个部分,可方便第一反射层42与第二反射层44的设置。
在一些实施例中,所述第一透镜45与所述第二透镜47的材料相同,所述第一透镜45与所述第二透镜47的接触面为平面。在一些实施例中,所述透镜元件40可仅包括一个透镜,该透镜的形貌与第一透镜45、第二透镜47的整体形貌相同。
在一些实施例中,所述透光层60与所述透镜元件40由不同材质的光学胶制成。其中,所述透光层60的折射率为1.65到1.7,所述透镜元件40的折射率为1.45到1.5。
在一些实施例中,如图1和图4所示,所述透光层60为平坦化层,被完全填充在相邻的透镜元件40之间。所述透光层60未延伸到透镜元件40的上方。所述显示面板100还包括滤光层80和光学胶层90,所述滤光层80形成于所述透光层60与所述透镜元件40远离所述封装层30的一侧。光学胶层90形成于所述滤光层80远离所述透镜元件40的一侧。光学胶层90为透明材料,可供光线透过。并且,光学胶层90具有一定的厚度,且在形成过程中为可流动材质,可起到使上表面平坦的作用。
请参照图3或图5所示,在一些实施例中,所述透光层60由滤光层80的一部分充当,所述滤光层80的一部分填充在相邻的所述透镜元件40之间作为所述透光层60,所述滤光层80的另一部分形成于所述透光层60与所述透镜元件40远离所述封装层30的一侧。所述滤光层80包括红色滤光层84、 绿色滤光层86和蓝色滤光层82,其中,红色滤光层84位于红色发光单元的上方,用于滤除红光外的其它光线;绿色滤光层86位于绿色发光单元的上方,用于滤除绿光外的其它光线;蓝色滤光层82位于蓝色发光单元的上方,用于滤除蓝光外的其它光线。所述透镜元件40的侧表面41与作为透光层60的滤光层80接触,所述侧表面41与所述封装层30所成的坡度角大于等于45度且小于90度。并且,与不同颜色滤光层80接触的不同所述侧表面41,所成的所述坡度角不相等,以获得较佳的白平衡效果。
红色滤光层84、绿色滤光层86和蓝色滤光层82的折射率均不相同。比如,红色滤光层84对于620nm红光的折射率是1.71;绿色滤光层86对于550nm绿光的折射率是1.63;蓝色滤光层82对于460nm蓝光的折射率是1.58。假如所有的透镜元件40被制作成相同的形态(由相同材料制成,折射率为1.47,并具有相等的坡度角),那么,由不同颜色滤光层所充当的透光层60与透镜元件40界面处的全反射临界角将不同,分别为59.8°(即,arcsin1.47/1.71)、64.4°(即,arcsin1.47/1.63)、68.5°(即,arcsin1.47/1.57)。这将导致不同颜色的发光单元处的出光效率增益不一致(全反射临界角越小,出光效率越高),最终影响显示画面的白平衡。
通常而言,将红色滤光层84对应的透镜元件40的坡度角(即,与红色滤光层84接触的所述侧表面41所成的坡度角)设置为65度~70度(含两个端点),将绿色滤光层86对应的透镜元件40的坡度角(即,与绿色滤光层86接触的所述侧表面41所成的坡度角)设置为55度~60度(含两个端点),将蓝色滤光层82对应的透镜元件40的坡度角(即,与蓝色滤光层82接触的所述侧表面41所成的坡度角)设置为45度~50度,即可很好地实现上述白平衡。
本申请实施例还提供一种显示面板的制作方法,其可用于制作上述显示面板。如图2(a),先提供衬底10,所述衬底10上已形成有发光层20和封装层30。其中,所述发光层20包括间隔设置的多个发光单元22(图中只 示出了一个发光单元22),相邻的发光单元22之间设置有像素限定层28。所述发光单元22可以分为用于发射红光的红色发光单元、用于发射绿光的绿色发光单元与用于发射蓝光的蓝色发光单元。每一发光单元22包括发光材料层23以及位于发光材料层23两侧的两个电极。图中只示出了位于发光材料层23下方的阳极25。所述封装层30设置于所述发光层20远离所述衬底10的一侧。所述封装层30可以是无机绝缘层-有机绝缘层-无机绝缘层的叠层结构。

如图2(d)和图2(e),在第一透镜45的上方形成第二透镜47,并在第二透镜47的上表面开设凹槽。其中,第二透镜47的材料可与第一透镜45相同。并且,第二透镜47的坡度角可为45度到90度之间,优选与第一透镜45的坡度角相同,使得透镜元件40整体呈等腰梯形状。第二透镜47的厚度可为1微米到3微米之间。位于第二透镜47上表面的所述凹槽的横截面优选为倒等腰三角形。所述凹槽的坡度可以是10度到35度,优选为20度。

透光层60,设置于所述封装层30远离所述发光层20的一侧,所述透光层60的至少部分位于相邻的透镜元件40之间,所述透光层60在所述衬底10上的投影与所述发光单元22在所述衬底10上的投影至少部分交叠(即,透光层60位于发光单元22的上方),以供发光单元22发出的光通过而进入用户的眼睛;
其中,所述透镜元件40具有与所述透光层60接触的侧表面41,所述透镜元件40在所述侧表面41处的折射率小于所述透光层60的折射率。
在上述实施例中,通过设置透镜元件40,有效提升了显示面板的出光效果。具体的,发光单元22发出的光一部分会直接透过透光层60进入用户的眼睛,另一部分则会照射到透镜元件40的侧表面41上。在上述侧表面41处,当光线(比如,光线L1)的入射角大于全反射临界角时,则会发生全反射,反射形成的光线L2直接经透光层60进入用户的眼睛;当光线(比如,光线L3)的入射角小于全反射临界角时,则会发生折射,折射后的光线L4、L5经透镜元件40也会进入用户的眼睛。由此,显著提升了显示面板的出光效率。
继续参照图6,在一些实施例中,所述透镜元件40包括层叠设置的第一透镜45与第二透镜47,所述第一透镜45邻近所述封装层30设置,所述第二透镜47位于所述第一透镜45远离所述封装层30的一侧。并且,第二透镜47远离所述第一透镜45的表面(图6中第二透镜47的上表面)为允许光透过的出光面470。比如,图6中的光线L3先是折射入透镜元件40形成光线L4,而后自所述出光面470(第二透镜47的上表面)处再次折射后形成光线L5,而后进入用户的眼睛。经透镜元件40调整后形成的光线L5比原光线L3更接近正视角的方向,从而提高了显示面板正视角的出光效率。
所述第一透镜45在所述衬底10上的投影通常会完全落入像素限定层28在所述衬底10上的投影内。即,第一透镜45不延伸到发光单元22的正上方。所述第一透镜45下表面的边界与所述像素限定层28的边界之间的间距通常可设置为0到5微米。
在一些实施例中,所述第二透镜47的所述出光面470呈折线状,该折线由两段或更多段直线连接而成。在一些实施例中,所述第二透镜47的所述出光面470呈弧线状。该弧线可以是标准的圆弧,也可以是不规则的曲线。不管是呈折线状还是呈弧线状,所述第二透镜47的所述出光面470均优选呈连续变化的渐变形状。比如,沿从所述出光面470的中心到所述出光面470的边缘的方向,所述出光面470与所述封装层30之间的距离逐渐增大,如图 6、图7与图8所示。此时,相当于在第二透镜47的出光面470开设有凹槽。所述凹槽的横截面优选为倒等腰三角形。所述凹槽的坡度可以是10度到35度,优选为20度。又比如,沿从所述出光面470的中心到所述出光面470的边缘的方向,所述出光面470与所述封装层30之间的距离逐渐减小,如图9和图10所示。出光面470的上述渐变设计有利于进一步提升出光效率。
在一些实施例中,所述第一透镜45与所述第二透镜47的材料相同,所述第一透镜45与所述第二透镜47的接触面为平面。在一些实施例中,所述透镜元件40可仅包括一个透镜,该透镜的形貌与第一透镜45、第二透镜47的整体形貌相同。
在一些实施例中,沿远离所述封装层30的方向,所述透镜元件40的宽度逐渐减小。即,透镜元件40呈上窄下宽的形状。在一些实施例中,所述侧表面41与所述封装层30所成的坡度角大于等于45度且小于90度。较优的,所述坡度角为大于等于45度且小于等于70度。更优的,所述坡度角为55度左右。经多次实验验证,透镜元件40呈上窄下宽的形状以及上述坡度角的设置均有利于进一步提升显示面板的出光效率。
在一些实施例中,所述透光层60与所述第一透镜45、所述第二透镜47由不同材质的光学胶制成。其中,所述透光层60的折射率为1.65到1.7,所述第一透镜45与所述第二透镜47的折射率为1.45到1.5。
在一些实施例中,所述透光层60为平坦化层,填充在相邻的透镜元件40之间,并覆盖于透镜元件40远离所述封装层30的一侧,如图6、图7和图9所示。
所述透镜元件40还可包括第三透镜49,第三透镜49的折射率大于第一透镜45、第二透镜47的折射率。在一些实施例中,第三透镜49的折射率不仅大于第一透镜45、第二透镜47的折射率,还大于透光层60的折射率。比如,第三透镜49可由折射率为1.7的光学胶制作。
在一些实施例中,所述第三透镜49设置于第二透镜47远离所述封装层30的一侧,如图7、图8和图10所示。在一些实施例中,所述第三透镜49直接设置于第一透镜45远离所述封装层30的一侧,而不再设置第二透镜47,如图11所示。在一些实施例中,所述第三透镜49远离所述封装层30的一侧被透光层60所覆盖,如图7所示。在一些实施例中,所述第三透镜49远离所述封装层30的一侧未被透光层60所覆盖,如图8、图10和图11所示。通过设置第三透镜49可进一步对光线进行调整,使得经透镜元件40调整后形成的光线更接近正视角的方向,从而提高了显示面板正视角的出光效率。
在一些实施例中,每一发光单元22包括发光材料层23以及位于发光材料层23两侧的两个电极。图6中只示出了位于发光材料层23下方的阳极25。
经仿真测试:传统显示面板的出光增益为12%。图6至图10中显示面板的出光增益分别为14.30%、16.10%、16.30%、14.50%与16.20%,在出光增益方面明显优于传统显示面板。图11中显示面板的出光增益分别为12.80%,在出光增益方面也优于传统显示面板。
