Description

As customers' demands for product power consumption are getting higher and higher, the luminous efficiency of products from various OLED manufacturers on the market has approached the efficiency limit of electroluminescent (EL) materials, so other methods are needed to improve the luminous efficiency of products to meet customer needs.

[0062] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, the present disclosure omits detailed descriptions of well-known functions and well-known components.

[0063] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a display panel, comprising:

[0064] Base substrate 1;

[0065] The light emitting structure 2 is located on one side of the substrate 1; specifically, the light emitting structure 2 can be a light emitting structure that emits blue light; specifically, combined with Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the light emitting structure 2 may include a plurality of organic light emitting elements 22 that emit blue light; specifically, the light emitting structure 2 may also include a pixel defining layer 21 having a plurality of pixel defining openings, and the organic light emitting elements 22 may be specifically located in the pixel defining openings of the pixel defining layer 21;

[0066] The light conversion structure 4 is located on the side of the light emitting structure 2 away from the substrate 1, and includes a stacked optical pattern layer 41 and a color conversion layer 42. The optical pattern layer 41 has a plurality of protrusions 410 on the side away from the light emitting structure 2. The color conversion layer 42 converts light emitted from the light emitting structure 2.

[0067] The color filter layer 7 is located on the side of the light conversion structure 4 away from the light emitting structure 2, and has a plurality of color blocks 70, which filter the light converted by the color conversion layer 42. Specifically, the plurality of color blocks may include a red block 71 that only transmits red light, a green block 72 that only transmits green light, and a blue block 73 that only transmits blue light. Specifically, the color blocks 70 may correspond to the organic light emitting element 22 one by one. Specifically, the red block 71 may only transmit red light; the green block 72 may only transmit green light; and the blue block 73 may only transmit blue light.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present invention, the light conversion structure 4 includes an optical pattern layer 41 and a color conversion layer 42 which are stacked. The optical pattern layer 41 has a plurality of protrusions 410 on the side away from the light emitting structure 2. The protrusions 410 can converge the incident light and then emit it, thereby improving the light output efficiency of the optical pattern layer 41, and further improving the light output efficiency of the display panel. By combining the light emitting structure 2 with the color conversion layer 42 and the color film layer 7 to achieve color display, the display panel can have a higher color gamut.

[0069] In one possible implementation, see Figure 7 As shown, the color conversion layer 42 may include a matrix 421 and color conversion particles 422 distributed in the matrix 421; Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, the light conversion structure 4 further includes a low refractive index layer 43 in contact with the color conversion layer 42 , and the refractive index of the low refractive index layer 43 is smaller than the refractive index of the matrix 421 .

[0070] In the embodiment of the present invention, the light conversion structure 4 also includes a low refractive index layer 43 located in contact with the color conversion layer 42. The refractive index of the low refractive index layer 43 is less than the refractive index of the matrix 421. When the low refractive index layer 43 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 away from the light-emitting structure 2, the low refractive index layer 43 can allow part of the light of the light-emitting structure 2 that passes through the color conversion layer 42 to re-enter the color conversion layer 42 through total reflection and excite corresponding photons, thereby improving the conversion rate of the color conversion layer 42; when the low refractive index layer 43 is located between the color conversion layer 42 and the optical pattern layer 41, the low refractive index layer 43 can flatten the optical pattern layer 41 and act as a flat layer.

[0071] In a possible implementation, the refractive index n of the low refractive index layer 43 satisfies: 1.1≤n≤1.4. Specifically, the refractive index n of the low refractive index layer 43 satisfies: 1.3≤n≤1.4. Specifically, the refractive index n of the low refractive index layer 43 may be 1.3. The refractive index n of the low refractive index layer 43 may be 1.4. Specifically, the low refractive index layer 54 may include a matrix layer and an additive, wherein the matrix layer is made of epoxy resin, and the additive layer is SiOx; the thickness of the low refractive index layer 43 may be set to: 30μm to 50μm. Specifically, for example, the thickness of the low refractive index layer 43 may be set to: 35μm to 45μm. Specifically, for example, the thickness of the low refractive index layer 43 is 40μm; specifically, for example, the thickness of the low refractive index layer 43 is 30μm; specifically, for example, the thickness of the low refractive index layer 43 is 50μm.

[0072] Specifically, the effect of the low refractive index layer 43 on the efficiency of the blue light emitting organic light emitting device (simulation results) is as follows: Figure 8 As shown by Figure 8 It can be seen that when the refractive index of the low refractive index layer 43 is n=1.3-1.4 and the film thickness is 30-50 um, the efficiency of the blue organic light emitting device can be improved by more than 10%.

[0073] Specifically, the refractive index n value of the low refractive index layer 43 is set to be 1.3, the film thickness THK is set to be 40 μm, the maximum film thickness THK of the optical pattern layer 41 is set to be 20 μm to 30 μm, and the effect of the optical pattern layer 41 and the low refractive index layer 43 on the efficiency of the blue light emitting device (simulation results) is shown as follows: Fig. 9 As shown by Fig. 9 It can be seen that under this condition, the efficiency of the blue light emitting device can be improved by about 30%; under the above conditions (the refractive index n value of the low refractive index layer 43 is 1.3, the thickness THK is 40μm, and the maximum film thickness THK of the optical pattern layer 41 is 30μm), the brightness of the blue light emitting device (Blue OLED device) changes with the attenuation (L-Decay) of the viewing angle and the CIE color shift trajectory (simulation results) are as follows Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown by Fig.10 and Fig.11 It is known that, compared with the samples without the optical pattern layer 41 and the low refractive index layer 43, the L-Decay of the Blue OLED device is significantly slower, and the range of color deviation trajectory change is significantly narrowed. This effect is conducive to adjusting the color deviation of the product and optimizing the visual color deviation effect of the product.

[0074] In a possible implementation, the material of the matrix 421 may include at least one of phenolic resin, polyamide resin, polyimide, polyester resin, and polyphenylene resin. Specifically, the refractive index of the matrix 421 may be greater than or equal to 1.50 and less than or equal to 1.65.

[0075] In a specific implementation, the positions of the optical pattern layer 41, the color conversion layer 42, and the low refractive index layer 43 can be flexibly arranged, which is described in detail below.

[0076] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 1 As shown, the low refractive index layer 43 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 facing the light emitting structure 2; the optical pattern layer 41 is located on the side of the low refractive index layer 43 facing the light emitting structure 2; and the low refractive index layer 43 is reused as the first flat layer 51. In the embodiment of the present invention, the low refractive index layer 43 is located between the color conversion layer 42 and the optical pattern layer 41, and can flatten the optical pattern layer 41, thus playing the role of a flat layer.

[0077] Specifically, the thickness of the first flat layer 51 can be 20 μm to 40 μm, and the transmittance is ≥ 99%. In the embodiment of the present invention, the first flat layer 51 is provided between the optical pattern layer 41 and the color conversion layer 42 to flatten the upper surface of the optical pattern layer 41 and facilitate the subsequent production of the color conversion layer 42.

[0078] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 2 As shown, the low refractive index layer 43 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 away from the light emitting structure 2, and the optical pattern layer 41 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 facing the light emitting structure 2. In the embodiment of the present invention, the low refractive index layer 43 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 away from the light emitting structure 2, and the optical pattern layer 41 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 facing the light emitting structure 2. The low refractive index layer 43 can allow part of the light of the light emitting structure 2 that passes through the color conversion layer 42 to re-enter the color conversion layer 42 through total reflection and excite corresponding photons, thereby improving the conversion rate of the color conversion layer 42.

[0079] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 2 As shown, the optical pattern layer 41 is in direct contact with the color conversion layer 42 .

[0080] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 3 As shown, the low refractive index layer 43 is located on the side of the color conversion layer 42 away from the light emitting structure 2 , and the light pattern layer 41 is located on the side of the low refractive index layer 43 away from the color conversion layer 42 .

[0081] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 3As shown, there is a second flat layer 52 between the optical pattern layer 41 and the color filter layer 7. In the embodiment of the present invention, there is a second flat layer 52 between the optical pattern layer 41 and the color filter layer 7, which can flatten the upper surface of the optical pattern layer 41 to facilitate the subsequent production of the color filter layer 7. Specifically, the thickness of the second flat layer 52 can be: 20μm to 40μm, and the transmittance is ≥99%.

[0082] In a possible implementation, the display panel further includes a black matrix 6 having a plurality of openings 60, the color resist 70 is located in the openings 60, and the orthographic projection of the openings 60 on the base substrate 1 covers the orthographic projection of at least one protrusion 410 on the base substrate 1. Specifically, the orthographic projection area of ​​the protrusion 410 on the base substrate 1 may be smaller than the orthographic projection area of ​​the openings 60 on the base substrate 1, and the orthographic projection area of ​​the protrusion 410 on the base substrate 1 may be located within the orthographic projection of the openings 60 on the base substrate 1. In the embodiment of the present invention, the orthographic projection of the openings 60 on the base substrate 1 covers the orthographic projection of at least one protrusion 410 on the base substrate 1, so as to ensure that each pixel has a protrusion 410 to converge light, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of each pixel.

[0083] In one possible implementation, see Fig.12 , Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the optical pattern layer 41 includes a plurality of repeating units Z, each repeating unit Z includes a plurality of protrusions 410, and the plurality of protrusions 410 in the same repeating unit Z form a quadrilateral, as shown in FIG. Fig.12 As shown, or multiple protrusions 410 in the same repeating unit Z form a hexagon, such as Fig.13 Specifically, the plurality of protrusions 410 in the same repeating unit Z form a rectangle.

[0084] In one possible implementation, see Fig.12 , Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the shape of the protrusion 410 includes at least one of a hemispherical shape, a conical shape, a quadrangular pyramid shape, and a hexagonal pyramid shape.

[0085] Specifically, the effects of different shapes of the protrusions 410 on the efficiency of the organic light emitting device (Blue OLED device) emitting blue light (simulation results) are as follows: Fig.15 As shown, express Fig.12 The curve showing the effect of the protrusion 410 on the efficiency of the organic light emitting device (Blue OLED device) emitting blue light; express Fig.13 The curve showing the effect of the protrusion 410 on the efficiency of the organic light emitting device (Blue OLED device) emitting blue light; express Fig.14 The curve showing the influence of the protrusion 410 on the efficiency of the organic light emitting device (Blue OLED device) emitting blue light; Fig.15 It can be seen that when the maximum film thickness of the optical pattern layer 41 is THK=20 μm-30 μm, the efficiency of the Blue OLED device can be improved by more than 10% by the optical pattern layer 41 .

[0086] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, the display panel further includes an encapsulation layer 3 between the light emitting structure 2 and the light conversion structure 4. In the embodiment of the present invention, the display panel further includes an encapsulation layer 3 between the light emitting structure 2 and the light conversion structure 4, which can encapsulate the light emitting structure 2 to prevent the light emitting structure 2 from being corroded by external water vapor.

[0087] Specific, combined Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, the encapsulation layer 3 may include a first inorganic encapsulation layer 301, an organic encapsulation layer 303, and a second inorganic encapsulation layer 302, which are stacked.

[0088] In a possible implementation, the color conversion layer 42 is a whole layer of white light quantum dot conversion layer. In the embodiment of the present invention, the color conversion layer 42 is a whole layer of white light quantum dot conversion layer, which simplifies the production process compared with the single-color quantum dot. At the same time, by adjusting the aperture ratio of the black matrix, the high resolution of the product (PPI ≥ 1000) can be achieved.

[0089] In one possible implementation, combining Figure 7 As shown, the color conversion particles 422 may include red quantum dots 4221 and green quantum dots 4222. The red quantum dots 4221 and the green quantum dots 4222 are excited by the organic light emitting element 22 that emits blue light, and are mixed with the blue light emitted by the organic light emitting element 22 to form white light, which is filtered into different primary color lights by the color resistance 70 of the color filter layer 7 above to achieve color display.

[0090] In a possible implementation, the color conversion layer 42 further includes scattering particles 423 distributed in the matrix 421. In the embodiment of the present invention, by adding the scattering particles 423 to the color conversion layer 42, the light output of the color conversion layer 42 can be made uniform.

[0091] In a possible implementation, the mass ratio of the red quantum dots 4221 to the green quantum dots 4222 is in the range of 0.8:1 to 1:1; the mass ratio of the scattering particles 423 to the red quantum dots 4221 is in the range of 1:8 to 1:10. Specifically, the concentration of the red quantum dots 4221, the concentration of the green quantum dots 4222, and the concentration of the scattering particles 423 when printing and forming the color conversion layer 42 can be controlled to be 8% to 10%, 8% to 12%, and 1% to 2% to meet the color gamut BT2020 specification.

[0092] In specific implementation, the color gamut and color coordinates of the white light quantum dot conversion layer (W-QD) are as follows: Fig.16 As shown in Table 1. As can be seen from the chart, the color gamut of only the white light quantum dot conversion layer only reaches 90% of BT20220. In order to further improve its color purity, it is necessary to add a color filter layer 7 (CF) above the white light quantum dot conversion layer; the color gamut and color coordinate simulation results of the W-QD+CF sample are shown in Fig.17 As shown in Table 2, it can be seen from the chart that the color gamut of the W-QD+CF sample can meet the color gamut specification of BT2020.
