Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of display technology, in particular to a display panel, a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device. Background technique

[0002] An organic light-emitting diode (English: Organic Light-emitting Diode; abbreviation: OLED) display panel may include an anode, a pixel defining layer, an organic light-emitting layer, and a cathode. Wherein, the brightness of the organic light-emitting layer can be controlled by the voltage difference formed between the cathode and the anode. However, when the resistance of the cathode is large, the cathode has a significant impact on the voltage difference, resulting in a brightness gradient in the display of the display panel.

[0003] In the related art, the function of the original cathode can be replaced by setting a cathode structure, the cathode structure includes: a parallel cathode and an auxiliary cathode, and the auxiliary cathode is made of metal. The resis...

Embodiment Construction

[0043] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the implementation manner of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0044] In recent years, due to the advantages of high color saturation and flexibility and deformability of flexible OLED display panels, their applications have become more and more widespread. As the screen of the display panel increases, the area of ​​the pixel unit on the display panel increases accordingly. Moreover, the potential drop caused by the resistance of the cathode tends to be significant, resulting in a decrease in the voltage difference between the anode and the cathode, thereby causing a brightness gradient to appear in the display area of ​​the display panel. For example, for a top-emission display panel, in order to ensure the transmittance of the electrode (cathode) on the light-emitting side, and because the elect...
