本申请所说的显示面板可以是OLED显示面板。
下面结合附图1至图20,对本申请所提供的显示面板及其制备方法的一些实施例作详细说明。

具体地,如图2中,辅助电极202具体可在宽度方向W上的尺寸小于支撑顶层60在该宽度方向W上的尺寸,所述辅助电极202在宽度方向W上的相对两端,与所述支撑顶层60以及所述平坦化层58围成位于所述辅助电极202在宽度方向W上相对两侧的两个开槽601、602。发光结构2013的第二电极233一端的端部位于开槽601中,发光结构2014的第二电极234一端的端部位于开槽602中。
在一些实施例中,所述支撑顶层60的材料为无机材料。

像素驱动电路层还包括栅极绝缘层55、层间介质层56和层间介质层57及平坦化层58。栅极绝缘层55位于有源层51与栅电极52之间。层间介质层56位于栅电极52背离衬底10的一侧,第一极53与第二极54通过穿透栅极绝缘层55与层间介质层56、层间介质层57的通孔与有源层51电连接。平坦化层58位于第一极53及第二极54背离衬底10的一侧,覆盖露出的层间介质层57。
可以理解的是,这里平坦化层58可以为像素驱动电路层50的顶层。当然,在其它一些实施例中,平坦化层还可以为像素驱动电路层50背离衬底10的另一平坦化层。
请结合图18至图20所示,本申请所说的发光材料层22可以为单层发光材料层。比如图18所示,发光结构201的层结构可以包括阳极层AE1(即对应第一电极21)、空穴传输层HTL1、发光材料层EML1、电子传输层ETL1及阴极层CE(即对应第二电极23)。

当然,在其它一些实施例中,平坦化层还可以是位于驱动电路层背离衬底一侧的独立的膜层。相应地,形成平坦化层的步骤可在形成驱动电路层之后形成。
在一些实施例中,步骤S105可以包括如下步骤S1051至步骤S1053:

当然,在其它一些实施例中,二者也可为不同的材料层。
可以理解的是,第一电极材料层210形成之前,可在平坦化层58中设置与驱动电路层中薄膜晶体管连接的通孔。在形成第一电极材料层210的同时可在该通孔中形成导电结构。

经步骤S10531之后,可形成如图8所示的中间结构1004。该中间结构1004中,所述平坦化层58具有部分位于所述辅助电极202下方,并且开口位于所述辅助电极202在宽度方向W上相对两侧的两个底切槽502、503。

如图9所示,在步骤S1052形成所述第一电极及所述辅助电极之后,具体地可在步骤S10531之后,所述方法还包括步骤S10532:
在步骤S10532中,在所述平坦化层58以及所述第一电极21和所述辅助电极202背离所述衬底10的一侧形成像素限定层40;所述像素限定层40设有多个像素开口401和多个电极连接开口402,所述电极连接开口402间隔设于相邻两个像素开口401之间;其中,多个所述像素开口401与多个所述发光结构201一一对应;所述第一电极21至少部分自所述像素开口401暴露,所述发光材料层22的至少部分位于所述像素开口401内;多个所述电极连接开口402与多个所述辅助电极202一一对应;所述辅助电极202位于所述电极连接开口402内。具体可如图9所示的中间结构1005所示。
在一些实施例中,多个所述发光结构201中至少一部分为具有第一发光颜色的第一发光结构,比如图1所示的发光结构2011,至少一部分为具有第二发光颜色的第二发光结构,比如图1所示的发光结构2012。其中,至少 部分第一发光结构和第二发光结构相邻设置。

在步骤S10534中,在所述第一发光结构的发光材料层22背离所述衬底10的一侧形成第一发光结构的第二电极23。
经步骤S10533及步骤S10534后可形成如图10所示的中间结构1006。
该中间结构1006中,第一发光结构的发光材料层22和第二电极23可以是在显示面板的整个区域范围内进行发光材料层和第二电极对应的材料层的形成,并分别通过刻蚀形成位于整个区域内的发光材料层和第二电极。
如图11和图12所示,在步骤S10535中,去除用于形成第二发光结构的区域中的第一发光结构的发光材料及第一发光结构的第二电极23。
如图11所示,在去除用于形成第二发光结构的区域中的第一发光结构的发光材料及第一发光结构的第一电极时,可采用PR胶或者其它保护层涂覆于第一发光结构所在区域的上方,以对第一发光结构的区域内各结构进行保护,比如图11所示的中间结构1007。
可以理解的是,如图12所示,在去除用于形成第二发光结构的区域中的第一发光结构的发光材料及第一发光结构的第二电极23时,可同时去除位于连接相邻第一发光结构和第二发光结构的辅助电极202下方底切槽502中的第一发光结构的发光材料和第一发光结构的第二电极。
经过步骤S10535可形成如图12所示的中间结构1008。该中间结构1008中,用于形成第二发光结构的区域中的发光材料层及第二电极均被去除,并且辅助电极202下方底切槽502中的发光材料层及第二电极也被去除。

经步骤S10536及步骤S10537后,可形成如图13所示的中间结构1009,该中间结构中位于辅助电极202在宽度方向W上相对两侧的第一发光结构和第二发光结构二者的第二电极通过辅助电极202实现连接。且第一发光结构和第二发光结构二者的的发光材料层不同。
步骤S10536及步骤S10537与上述步骤S10533及步骤S10534类似。
可以理解的是,该多个发光结构还可以有一部分为具有第三发光颜色的第三发光结构。相应地,在步骤S10535中,可相应去除用于形成第三发光结构的区域中的第一发光结构的发光材料及第一发光结构的第二电极23。在步骤S10536和步骤S10537时,在用于形成第三发光结构的区域中形成了第二发光结构。相应地,可以重复步骤S10535至步骤S10537的类似步骤,在用于形成第三发光结构的区域中形成第三发光结构。
这里第一发光颜色、第二发光颜色、第三发光颜色可以分别为红色、绿色、蓝色中的一种。
当然,显示面板的各发光结构也可仅具有第一发光颜色和第二发光颜色的两类发光结构。相应地,第一发光颜色、第二发光颜色可为红色、蓝色、绿色中的任意两种。
此外,在另一些实施例中,各发光结构也可均具有同一发光颜色。相应地,在步骤S1052之后,尤其在步骤S10532之后,所述方法包括如下步骤S1530:
在步骤S1530中,在第一电极背离所述衬底的一侧依序形成发光材料层以及第二电极。
该步骤S1530可类似步骤S10533和步骤S10534。该实施例中,在形成发光材料层和第二电极后,可直接进行后续膜层或者结构的设置。
在一些实施例中,在步骤S1052形成第一发光结构201的第二电极23之后,具体可在步骤S10534之后,所述方法包括如下步骤S10538:
步骤S10538,在所述第一发光结构201的第二电极23背离所述衬底10的一侧形成第一无机层,比如图10所示的无机层311。
相应地,在用于形成第二发光结构201的区域中,形成位于所述第一电极21背离所述衬底10一侧的第二发光结构201的发光材料层22之前,所述方法还包括:去所述第一无机层311,比如如图12所示。该去除第一无机层311的步骤可与步骤S10535同步或者在步骤S10535之前进行。
相应地,在形成第二发光结构201的第二电极23之后,所述方法还包括如下步骤S10539:
在步骤S10539中,在所述第二发光结构201的第二电极23背离所述衬底10的一侧形成第二无机层312,所述第二无机层312与所述第一无机层311连接形成连续的无机层31,比如图13所示。

需要说明的是,在另一些实施例中,上述步骤S10531和步骤S10532也可互换制备顺序。即在步骤S1052之后,先形成像素限定层,再形成底切槽502、503。
这里以形成底切槽502、503为例进行说明,在一些实施例中,在步骤S1052形成所述第一电极及所述辅助电极之后,所述方法包括:
步骤S10531’,在所述平坦化层以及所述第一电极和所述辅助电极背离所述衬底的一侧形成像素限定层;所述像素限定层设有多个像素开口和多个电极连接开口,所述电极连接开口间隔设于相邻两个像素开口之间;其中,多个所述像素开口与多个所述发光结构一一对应;所述第一电极至少部分自所述像素开口暴露;多个所述电极连接开口与多个所述辅助电极一一对应;所述辅助电极位于所述电极连接开口内,并自所述电极连接开口暴露;
步骤S10532’,在所述平坦化层形成与每一个辅助电极对应的两个底切 槽,每一辅助电极所对应的两个底切槽,均具有部分位于所述辅助电极下方,并且所述两个底切槽的开口分别位于所述辅助电极相对两侧;
在形成所述发光层之后,所述辅助电极所连接的相邻两个发光结构的第二电极,二者的端部分别位于所述两个底切槽中,并均与所述辅助电极连接。
可以理解的是,该实施例中,在步骤S10532’之后,可进入步骤S10533及后续其它步骤,具体可仍参照如上所述的相应步骤。
可以理解的是,在其它一些实施例中,也可不在平坦化层58中设置底切槽,而在平坦化层58背离衬底10的一侧形成开槽。
请结合附图15至图17,在另一些实施例中,可在步骤S1052形成所述辅助电极202之后,所述方法包括如下步骤S1054:
