In order to better and more fully utilize the space of the display panel, the screen-to-body ratio is getting higher and higher, that is, the proportion of the display area to the display panel area is getting larger and larger. When the display area is large, it will occupy the space of the front camera, etc., so an opening area is set in the display area of the display panel to set components such as the front camera.

[0020] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the relative arrangement of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention unless otherwise specifically stated.
[0021] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the invention, its application, or uses.
[0022] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.
[0023] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
[0024] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.
[0025] Figure 1 is a plan view of a display panel provided by the present invention, Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the display panel along line AA', see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a display panel, which includes an opening area FA, a first non-display area NA1 surrounding the opening area FA, and a display area AA surrounding the first non-display area NA1. The opening area FA refers to the area where the display panel has a film layer that is dug out to improve the light transmittance of the opening area FA, so that the opening area FA can be set as a storage space for modules such as cameras and sensors in the display device. It should be noted that Figure 2 exemplarily shows that in the opening area FA, all the film layers of the display panel are dug out. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the opening area FA may also retain some film layers, such as retaining a film layer with a higher light transmittance. Optionally, the display panel further includes a second non-display area NA2 surrounding the display area AA.
[0026] The display panel further includes a base substrate 10, a circuit layer 20 and a light emitting layer 30, wherein the circuit layer 20 is located on one side of the base substrate 10, and the light emitting layer 30 is located on a side of the circuit layer 20 away from the base substrate 10, and the circuit layer 20 includes a plurality of inorganic layers 21. The base substrate 10 may be the base of the entire display panel, and illustratively, the base substrate 10 may include a polyimide material layer, an inorganic material layer and a polyimide material layer stacked in sequence.
[0027] The first non-display area NA1 includes at least one blocking portion 40 and at least one groove 50. Along a direction perpendicular to the plane where the base substrate 10 is located, the groove 50 penetrates the inorganic layer 21 in the circuit layer 20 to form the blocking portion 40. A metal portion 41 is provided on the side of the blocking portion 40 away from the base substrate 10.
[0028] The light emitting layer 30 is disconnected at the groove 50 .
[0029] The circuit layer 30 further includes a plurality of transistors T. The transistor T includes an active layer T01 , a gate T02 , a source T03 , and a drain T04 . The metal portion 41 is disposed in the same layer as the gate T02 .
[0030] Specifically, the light-emitting layer 30 includes an organic layer, and water oxygen can extend along the light-emitting layer 30 to invade the interior of the display panel, affecting the stability of the display panel. In the present application, a blocking portion 40 and a groove 50 are provided in the first non-display area NA1. In a direction perpendicular to the plane where the base substrate 10 is located, the groove 50 penetrates the inorganic layer 21 in the circuit layer 20 to form the blocking portion 40. There is a step difference between the portion of the light-emitting layer 30 in the groove 50 and the portion in the blocking portion 40, so that the light-emitting layer 30 is disconnected at the groove 50, so that the portion of the light-emitting layer 30 in the first non-display area NA1 and the portion of the light-emitting layer 30 in the display area AA are disconnected from each other, and the water oxygen invasion path is disconnected. Even if the portion of the light-emitting layer 30 in the first non-display area NA1 is corroded by water oxygen, the water oxygen cannot be transmitted to the display area AA through the light-emitting layer 30.
[0031] In the present application, the inorganic layer 21 in the circuit layer 20 is penetrated by the groove 50 to form the blocking portion 40, that is, the inorganic layer 21 in the circuit layer 20 can be reused to form the blocking portion 40, and no additional material is needed to form the blocking portion 40, which is conducive to reducing the process and production costs. A metal portion 41 is provided on the side of the blocking portion 40 away from the base substrate 10, and the metal portion 41 and the gate T02 in the transistor T are arranged in the same layer, that is, the metal portion 41 and the gate T02 in the transistor T can be made of the same material in the same process, and the metal portion 41 can be used as a blocking groove 50 to form the blocking portion 40, and there is no need to set up a photoresist etching groove 50 to form the blocking portion 40, which is conducive to reducing the process and production costs.
[0032] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 2 , the transistor T is a top-gate structure transistor, in which the gate T02 is located on a side of the active layer T01 away from the substrate 10. In other embodiments of the present invention, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 yes Figure 1 In another cross-sectional view of the display panel along line AA′, the transistor T may also be a bottom-gate transistor. In the transistor T, the active layer T01 is located on a side of the gate electrode T02 away from the base substrate 10 .
[0033] Figure 4 yes Figure 1 Another cross-sectional view of the display panel along line AA', see Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some optional embodiments, the transistor T includes a first transistor T1 and a second transistor T2, the first transistor T1 includes a first active layer T011, a first gate T021, a first source T031 and a first drain T041, and the second transistor T2 includes a second active layer T012, a second gate T022, a second source T032 and a second drain T042.
[0034] The first gate T021 is located at a side of the second gate T022 away from the base substrate 10 .
[0035] The metal portion 41 is disposed on the same layer as the first gate T021 .
[0036] Specifically, in the display panel provided in the present application, the transistor T includes a first transistor T1 and a second transistor T2, the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 and the second gate T022 in the second transistor T2 are located in different film layers, and the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 is located on the side of the second gate T022 in the second transistor T2 away from the base substrate 10, that is, along the direction perpendicular to the plane where the base substrate 10 is located, the distance between the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 and the base substrate 10 is greater than the distance between the second gate T022 in the second transistor T2 and the base substrate 10. The metal portion 41 is arranged on the same layer as the first gate T021. The metal portion 41 and the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 can be made of the same material in the same process. The metal portion 41 can be used as a barrier to etch the groove 50 to form the blocking portion 40. Since the distance between the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 and the substrate 10 is greater than the distance between the second gate T022 in the second transistor T2 and the substrate 10 in the direction perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 10 is located, it is beneficial to increase the height of the blocking portion 40 in the direction perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 10 is located, and it is beneficial to increase the step difference between the part of the light-emitting layer 30 in the groove 50 and the part in the blocking portion 40, which is beneficial to disconnect the light-emitting layer 30 at the groove 50, thereby disconnecting the water and oxygen intrusion path. Even if the part of the light-emitting layer 30 in the first non-display area NA1 is corroded by water and oxygen, the water and oxygen cannot be transmitted to the display area AA through the light-emitting layer 30.
[0037] It should be noted that Figure 3 It is exemplarily shown that the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are both located in the display area AA, and the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are arranged adjacent to each other. This is to clearly illustrate the technical features of the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2.

In specific implementation, the setting position and connection relationship of the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are set according to actual production requirements, and the present invention will not be repeated here.

That is, the first transistor T1 is an oxide semiconductor transistor, and the oxide semiconductor material is such as amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide, i.e., IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide). The second transistor T2 is a silicon transistor, and silicon can be polycrystalline silicon deposited using a low-temperature method, i.e., LTPS (Low Temperature Poly-silicon) or low-temperature polycrystalline silicon. Since the materials of the first active layer T011 and the second active layer T012 are different, the first active layer T011 in the first transistor T1 and the second active layer T012 in the second transistor T2 are located in different film layers, and accordingly, the first gate T021 in the first transistor T1 and the second gate T022 in the second transistor T2 are also located in different film layers.

Specifically, since the metal part 41 is provided in the first non-display area NA1, when the first through hole 61 is formed by the existing mask plate, the inorganic layers 21 between the metal part 41 and the base substrate 10 will not be etched away due to the blocking of the metal part 41, so that the blocking part 40 and the groove 50 are formed in the first non-display area NA1, and there is no need to set up a photoresist to etch the groove 50 to form the blocking part 40, which is conducive to reducing the process and reducing the production cost.

Specifically, since the metal part 41 is provided in the first non-display area NA1, when the second through hole 62 is formed by the existing mask plate, the inorganic layers 21 between the metal part 41 and the base substrate 10 will not be etched away due to the blocking of the metal part 41, so that the blocking part 40 and the groove 50 are formed in the first non-display area NA1, and there is no need to set up a photoresist to etch the groove 50 to form the blocking part 40, which is conducive to reducing the process and reducing the production cost.

Since the groove 50 is etched with the metal portion 41 as a barrier to form the blocking portion 40, the inorganic layers 21 between the metal portion 41 and the base substrate 10 will not be etched, so that the vertical projection of the blocking portion 40 on the base substrate 10 is located within the vertical projection of the metal portion 41 on the base substrate 10.
