The upper surface TS3 of the separation layer 170 can be optionally cut flush with or below the upper surface TS4 of the light conversion units 180.
[0063] In some embodiments, the optical layer 160 (e.g., the color filter layer 161) can be located between the second substrate 150 and the light conversion units 180. In some embodiments, the light conversion units 180 can be located between the optical layer 160 and the adhesive layer 140.

[0064] In some embodiments, the light conversion unit 180 can include a polymer 181, a plurality of light conversion particles 182, a plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183, and / or a plurality of scattering particles 184, but is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the plurality of scattering particles 184 can include titanium oxide (TiO2), other suitable scattering materials, or combinations thereof, but is not limited thereto.
[0065] In some embodiments, the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 can have a particle size of, for example, between 10 nanometers and 10 micrometers (10 nanometers ≦ particle size ≦ 10 micrometers), such as between 50 nanometers and 8 micrometers (50 nanometers ≦ particle size ≦ 8 micrometers), between 100 nanometers and 5 micrometers (100 nanometers ≦ particle size ≦ 5 micrometers), but is not limited thereto.

For example, boron nitride has a thermal conductivity of about 185-300 W·m -1 ·K -1 , aluminum nitride has a thermal conductivity of about 150-220 W·m -1 ·K -1 , silicon carbide has a thermal conductivity of about 340 W·m -1 ·K -1 , beryllium oxide has a thermal conductivity of about 260-300 W·m -1 ·K -1 , but is not limited thereto. It should be noted that the ranges of thermal conductivities of the above-mentioned materials are merely examples.
[0066] Since the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 disposed in the light conversion unit 180 can help the light conversion unit 180 or the light emitting unit 130 dissipate heat, reduce the heat generated by the light conversion unit 180 or the light emitting unit 130, and increase the service life of the light conversion unit 180 or the light emitting unit 130, thereby increasing the service life of the display panel 100.
[0067] In some embodiments, the content of the plurality of light conversion particles 182, for example, the weight percentage of the light conversion particles 182 in the light conversion unit 180, is between 15% and 40% (15%≦content of light conversion particles 182≦40%), for example, between 20% and 35% (20%≦content of light conversion particles 182≦35%), 22% and 38% (22%≦content of light conversion particles 182≦38%), but is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the content of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183, for example, the weight percentage of the first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180, is between 1% and 25% (1%≦content of first heat dissipation particles 183≦25%), for example, between 5% and 20% (5%≦content of first heat dissipation particles 183≦20%), 8% and 17% (8%≦content of first heat dissipation particles 183≦17%), but is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, when the content of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 is greater than 25% of the weight percentage of the light conversion unit 180, it can cause the content of the plurality of light conversion particles 182 to be insufficient, resulting in poor light conversion efficiency, and can also cause the content of the polymer 181 to be insufficient, resulting in a fragile structure of the light conversion unit 180. In some embodiments, the light conversion unit 180 can further include a plurality of scattering particles 184, and the total content of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 and the plurality of scattering particles 184, for example, the weight percentage of the total content of the first heat dissipation particles 183 and the scattering particles 184 in the light conversion unit 180, is between 5% and 50% (5%≦total content of first heat dissipation particles 183 and scattering particles 184≦50%), for example, between 10% and 40% (10%≦total content of first heat dissipation particles 183 and scattering particles 184≦40%), 15% and 35% (15%≦total content of first heat dissipation particles 183 and scattering particles 184≦35%), but is not limited thereto.
[0068] In some embodiments, the light conversion units 180 in the light-emitting units 130 corresponding to different colors may each use a plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 at different or equal concentrations, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the concentration of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180 corresponding to a green LED may be greater than the concentration of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180 corresponding to a red LED, or the concentration of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180 corresponding to a red LED may be greater than the concentration of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180 corresponding to a blue LED, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The pixel definition layer 120d may, for example, be disposed on the first substrate 110 (e.g., the surface 111 of the first substrate 110), and may, for example, include an opening 121 for accommodating the light emitting unit 130, and may, for example, further include a plurality of first light absorbing particles 123 and / or a plurality of heat dissipating particles 124, but is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the plurality of heat dissipating particles 124 may, for example, have a particle size, material, or thermal conductivity as described above with reference to the first heat dissipating particles 183, which will not be repeated here. In some embodiments, the pixel definition layer 120d may, for example, include scattering particles, or the first light absorbing particles 123 in the pixel definition layer 120d may, for example, be replaced by scattering particles, but is not limited thereto.
[0079] In some embodiments, the optical layer 160 may, for example, include a color filter layer 161 and a black matrix layer 162, and the black matrix layer 162 may, for example, have a plurality of openings 1620 for respectively accommodating the color filter layer 161. In some embodiments, the black matrix layer 162 may, for example, be disposed substantially corresponding to the non-light-out area 102, and the openings 1620 may, for example, substantially correspond to the light-out area 101. In other words, in the normal direction of the first substrate 110, the black matrix layer 162 may, for example, overlap the non-light-out area 102, and the openings 1620 may, for example, overlap the light-out area 101.
[0080] In some embodiments, the optical layer 160 may, for example, be disposed between the second substrate 150 and the glue layer 140. In some embodiments, the optical layer 160 may, for example, contact the glue layer 140.
[0081] Figure 6 A partial cross-sectional schematic view of a display panel of another embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Please refer to FIG. 1C simultaneously. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The display panel 100e of the present embodiment is substantially similar to the display panel 100d of Figure 5 , and thus the same and similar components in the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display panel 100e of the present embodiment is different from the display panel 100d mainly in that the glue layer 140e may, for example, include a plurality of heat dissipating particles 142. In some embodiments, the pixel definition layer 120d may, for example, include a plurality of first light absorbing particles 123 and / or a plurality of heat dissipating particles 124. In some embodiments, at least one of the pixel definition layer 120d and the glue layer 140e may, for example, be selectively caused to include a plurality of heat dissipating particles, which is helpful to the heat dissipation effect of the light emitting unit 130.
[0082] Figure 7This is a partial cross-sectional diagram of a display panel according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The display panel 100f of this embodiment is roughly similar to Figure 6 Therefore, the same or similar components of the two embodiments will not be repeated here. The display panel 100f of this embodiment differs from the display panel 100e primarily in that the display panel 100f of this embodiment may not include the pixel definition layer 120d, and the adhesive layer 140f may include a plurality of heat dissipation particles 142. In some embodiments, the light-emitting unit 130 may include, for example, red, green, blue, white LEDs, ultraviolet LEDs (UV LEDs), and / or other suitable color LEDs, but is not limited thereto.
[0083] In summary, in a display panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, since the light conversion unit includes a plurality of heat dissipation particles (such as first heat dissipation particles), the thermal conductivity of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles is greater than 50 W·m -1 ·K -1 , which can help the light conversion unit or the light emitting unit in the display panel to dissipate heat, thereby increasing the service life of the display panel. In addition to the light conversion unit including multiple heat dissipation particles (such as first heat dissipation particles), the pixel definition layer may include multiple heat dissipation particles (such as second heat dissipation particles), the separation layer may include multiple heat dissipation particles (such as third heat dissipation particles) and / or the adhesive layer may include multiple heat dissipation particles (such as fourth heat dissipation particles), or other suitable layers may include multiple heat dissipation particles, which can reduce the heat generated by the light conversion unit or the light emitting unit, thereby increasing the service life of the display panel. In addition, in another display panel of the present embodiment, since at least one of the pixel definition layer and the adhesive layer may include multiple heat dissipation particles, and the thermal conductivity of the multiple heat dissipation particles is greater than 50W·m -1 ·K -1 , which can help the light-emitting units in the display panel dissipate heat and increase the service life of the display panel.
[0084] It is noted that the range of the weight percentage of the A material or particles in a certain element (or layer) mentioned in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be detected, for example, by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), but is not limited thereto. The element ratio of the first heat dissipation particles 183 in the light conversion unit 180 can be detected by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, for example, when the weight percentage of the plurality of first heat dissipation particles in the light conversion unit 180 is between 1% and 25%. For example, when the first heat dissipation particles 183 are boron nitride (BN), the weight percentage of the first heat dissipation particles 183 can be calculated by calculating the element ratio of boron and nitrogen in the light conversion unit 180 to the total element in the light conversion unit 180, but is not limited thereto. In addition, since the A material or particles can be substantially uniformly distributed in a certain element or layer, the measurement can be performed on a local part of the element (or layer), for example, and it is not necessary to take the entire element (or layer).
[0085] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and not to limit them; although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand: it can still combine, modify or replace part or all of the technical features of the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments; and these combinations, modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
