[0066] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the implementation methods can be carried out in many different forms. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that the methods and content can be transformed into various forms without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. Therefore, this disclosure should not be construed as limited to the content described in the following embodiments. Without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this disclosure can be arbitrarily combined with each other. To keep the following description of the embodiments of this disclosure clear and concise, detailed descriptions of some known functions and components have been omitted. The accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this disclosure only relate to the structures involved in the embodiments of this disclosure; other structures can be referred to in general design.

[0067] In the accompanying drawings, the size of the constituent elements, the thickness of the layers, or the area are sometimes exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, one aspect of this disclosure is not necessarily limited to these dimensions, and the shapes and sizes of the components in the drawings do not reflect true proportions. Furthermore, the drawings schematically illustrate ideal examples, and one aspect of this disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values ​​shown in the drawings.

[0068] The ordinal numbers “first,” “second,” and “third” used in this specification are used to avoid confusion among the constituent elements, not to limit their quantity.

[0069] In this specification, terms of "middle", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", and the like indicating the positional or directional relationship of the components are used to describe the positional relationship of the components with reference to the drawings for the convenience of explanation and simplification of the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present disclosure. The positional relationship of the components is appropriately changed according to the direction in which each component is described. Therefore, it is not limited to the words described in the specification, and can be appropriately changed according to the situation.

[0070] In this specification, unless explicitly defined and limited otherwise, the terms "mount", "connected", "connected" should be broadly understood. For example, it can be fixedly connected, or detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate, or communication between two elements inside. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0071] In this specification, a transistor refers to an element including at least a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. The transistor has a channel region between the drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and the source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. Note that in this specification, the channel region refers to a region through which current mainly flows.

[0072] In this specification, the first electrode can be a drain electrode, and the second electrode can be a source electrode, or the first electrode can be a source electrode, and the second electrode can be a drain electrode. In the case of using a transistor with opposite polarity or in the case of changing the direction of current in the circuit operation, the functions of "source electrode" and "drain electrode" are sometimes exchanged with each other. Therefore, in this specification, "source electrode" and "drain electrode" can be exchanged with each other.

[0073] In this specification, "electrically connected" includes the case where the components are connected together through an element having a certain electrical action. The element having a certain electrical action is not particularly limited as long as it can transmit and receive an electrical signal between the components to be connected. Examples of the element having a certain electrical action include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other elements having various functions.

[0074] In the present specification, "parallel" refers to a state in which the angle formed by two straight lines is -10° or more and 10° or less, and thus, a state in which the angle is -5° or more and 5° or less is also included. In addition, "perpendicular" refers to a state in which the angle formed by two straight lines is 80° or more and 100° or less, and thus, a state in which the angle is 85° or more and 95° or less is also included.

[0075] In the present specification, "film" and "layer" can be exchanged with each other. For example, "conductive layer" can be sometimes replaced with "conductive film". Similarly, "insulating film" can be sometimes replaced with "insulating layer".

[0076] In the present specification, "disposed in the same layer" refers to structures of two (or more) kinds that are patterned by the same patterning process, and the materials thereof can be the same or different. For example, the materials of the precursors for forming the plurality of structures disposed in the same layer are the same, and the finally formed materials can be the same or different.

[0077] In the present specification, a triangle, a rectangle, a trapezoid, a pentagon, or a hexagon, etc. are not strictly in the sense, and can be an approximate triangle, a rectangle, a trapezoid, a pentagon, or a hexagon, etc. There can be some small deformation due to tolerance, and there can be an inside corner, an arc edge, and deformation, etc.

[0078] In the present disclosure, "about" refers to not strictly limited boundaries, allowing values within the range of process and measurement errors.

[0079] A silicon-based OLED includes a silicon-based backplane integrated with a driving circuit, and a pixel definition layer and an OLED light-emitting element array formed on the silicon-based backplane. The OLED light-emitting element array includes an anode, an organic light-emitting layer, and a cathode. Due to the large thickness of the anode, the step difference of the pixel definition layer located on the anode is large, and when the cathode is subsequently formed, the cathode will be pierced, reducing the reliability of the display product.

For example, the distance L1 between the edge of the surface of the first electrode 30 away from the substrate 10 and the center line C1 of the first electrode 30 is less than or equal to the minimum distance L2 between the sidewall of the opening D1 and the center line C1 of the first electrode 30. The center line C1 of the first electrode 30 can be perpendicular to the substrate 10.

[0090] In an example embodiment, the active layer of the transistor 12 is disposed inside the base 11.

[0091] In an example embodiment, the transistor 12 can be a Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS).

[0092] In an example embodiment, the transistor can include an active layer, a gate electrode, a source electrode, a drain electrode, and a gate connection electrode. The source electrode and the drain electrode are connected to the active layer, respectively, and the gate connection electrode is connected to the gate electrode.

[0097] In an exemplary embodiment, the display substrate may include a pixel driving circuit, which includes a plurality of transistors 12 located on the substrate 11. The transistors may include at least one of a switching transistor, a driving transistor, a reset transistor, and a compensation transistor.

[0098] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a circuit principle provided for one exemplary implementation. For example... Figure 4 As shown, multiple sub-pixels in the display area are arranged in a regular pattern to form multiple display rows and multiple display columns. Each sub-pixel includes a pixel driving circuit 101 and a light-emitting device 102 connected to the pixel driving circuit 101. The pixel driving circuit 101 includes at least a driving transistor. The control circuit includes at least multiple voltage control circuits 110, each voltage control circuit 110 being connected to multiple pixel driving circuits 101. For example, one voltage control circuit 110 is connected to a pixel driving circuit 101 in a display row, where the first terminals of the driving transistors in the pixel driving circuit 101 of that display row are all connected to the voltage control circuit 110, the second terminal of each driving transistor is connected to the anode of the light-emitting device 102 of that sub-pixel, and the cathode of the light-emitting device 102 is connected to the input terminal of the second power supply signal VSS. The voltage control circuit 110 is connected to the input terminal of the first power supply signal VDD, the input terminal of the initialization signal Vinit, the input terminal of the reset control signal RE, and the input terminal of the light emission control signal EM, respectively. The voltage control circuit 110 is configured to output an initialization signal Vinit to the first terminal of the driving transistor in response to the reset control signal RE, thereby resetting the corresponding light-emitting device 102. The voltage control circuit 110 is also configured to output a first power supply signal VDD to the first terminal of the driving transistor in response to the light-emitting control signal EM, thereby driving the light-emitting device 102 to emit light. By connecting the voltage control circuit 110 to the pixel driving circuits 101 in a display row, the structure of the pixel driving circuits 101 can be simplified, and the area occupied by the pixel driving circuits 101 can be reduced. This allows the display substrate to accommodate more pixel driving circuits 101 and light-emitting devices 102, achieving a high PPI display. The voltage control circuit 110 outputs the initialization signal Vinit to the first terminal of the driving transistor under the control of the reset control signal RE, resetting the corresponding light-emitting device 102. This avoids the influence of the voltage applied to the light-emitting device 102 during the previous frame's illumination on the illumination of the next frame, thus improving image retention.

[0099] In an exemplary embodiment, one voltage control circuit 110 can be connected to the pixel driving circuit 101 in two adjacent sub-pixels in the same display row, or can be connected to the pixel driving circuit 101 in three or more sub-pixels in the same display row.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, the voltage control circuit 110 is connected to two pixel driving circuits 101 in a display row. The pixel driving circuit 101 includes a driving transistor M0, a third transistor M3, a fourth transistor M4 and a storage capacitor Cst, and the voltage control circuit 110 includes a first transistor M1 and a second transistor M2. The driving transistor M0, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 are transistors prepared in a substrate.

[0104] As shown in FIG. 2, the pixel driving circuit 101 includes a driving transistor M0, a third transistor M3, a fourth transistor M4 and a storage capacitor Cst. The driving transistor M0, the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 are transistors prepared in a substrate.

The control electrode of the second transistor M2 is connected with the input end of the light-emitting control signal EM, configured to receive the light-emitting control signal EM, the first electrode of the second transistor M2 is connected with the input end of the first power signal VDD, configured to receive the first power signal VDD, and the second electrode of the second transistor M2 is connected with the first electrode S of the corresponding driving transistor M0 and the second electrode of the first transistor M1 respectively. In the exemplary embodiments, the types of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 can be different, for example, the first transistor M1 is an N-type transistor and the second transistor M2 is a P-type transistor, or the first transistor M1 is a P-type transistor and the second transistor M2 is an N-type transistor. In some possible implementations, the types of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 can be the same, which can be designed and determined according to the actual application environment.

[0105] As Figure 1As shown, the pixel driving circuit 101 includes a driving transistor M0, a third transistor M3, a fourth transistor M4, and a storage capacitor Cst. The control electrode G of the driving transistor M0, the first electrode S of the driving transistor M0 is connected with the second electrode of the first transistor M1 and the second electrode of the second transistor M2, and the second electrode D of the driving transistor M0 is connected with the anode of the OLED.

In the exemplary embodiment, the driving transistor M0 can be an N-type transistor, and the types of the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 can be different, for example, the third transistor M3 is an N-type transistor and the fourth transistor M4 is a P-type transistor. When the voltage of the data signal DA is the voltage corresponding to a high gray scale, the fourth transistor M4 of the P-type is turned on to transmit the data signal DA to the control electrode G of the driving transistor M0, which can avoid the voltage of the data signal DA being affected by the threshold voltage of the third transistor M3 of the N-type. When the voltage of the data signal DA is the voltage corresponding to a low gray scale, the third transistor M3 of the N-type is turned on to transmit the data signal DA to the control electrode G of the driving transistor M0, which can avoid the voltage of the data signal DA being affected by the threshold voltage of the fourth transistor M4 of the P-type.

[0108] Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of an organic light-emitting layer is shown. As shown, an organic light-emitting layer provided by an exemplary embodiment includes, in sequence from the first electrode to the second electrode, a first light-emitting sub-layer 331, a first charge generation layer 332, a second light-emitting sub-layer 333, a second charge generation layer 334, and a third light-emitting sub-layer 335. Figure 1 As shown, an organic light-emitting layer provided by an exemplary embodiment includes, in sequence from the first electrode to the second electrode, a first light-emitting sub-layer 331, a first charge generation layer 332, a second light-emitting sub-layer 333, a second charge generation layer 334, and a third light-emitting sub-layer 335.

[0109] like Figure 1 As shown, the first light-emitting sublayer 331 emits first-color light and includes a first hole transport layer (HTL) 3311, a first light-emitting material layer (EML) 3312, and a first electron transport layer (ETL) 3313 stacked sequentially. The second light-emitting sublayer 333 emits second-color light and includes a second hole transport layer 3331, a second light-emitting material layer 3332, and a second electron transport layer 3333 stacked sequentially. The third light-emitting sublayer 335 emits third-color light and includes a third hole transport layer 3351, a third light-emitting material layer 3352, and a third electron transport layer 3353 stacked sequentially. A first charge-generating layer 332 is disposed between the first light-emitting sublayer 331 and the second light-emitting sublayer 333 to connect the two sublayers in series and achieve carrier transfer. A second charge-generating layer 334 is disposed between the second light-emitting sublayer 333 and the third light-emitting sublayer 335 to connect the two sublayers in series and achieve carrier transfer. Since the organic light-emitting layer includes a first light-emitting material layer that emits a first color of light, a second light-emitting material layer that emits a second color of light, and a third light-emitting material layer that emits a third color of light, the light ultimately emitted by the organic light-emitting layer is mixed light. For example, the first light-emitting material layer can be configured to be a red light-emitting material layer that emits red light, the second light-emitting material layer to be a green light-emitting material layer that emits green light, and the third light-emitting material layer to be a blue light-emitting material layer that emits blue light, thus the organic light-emitting layer ultimately emits white light.

[0110] In practical implementation, the structure of the organic light-emitting layer can be designed according to actual needs. In each light-emitting sub-layer, a hole injection layer and an electron injection layer can also be set to improve the efficiency of electron and hole injection into the light-emitting material layer. To simplify the structure of the organic light-emitting layer, the first electron transport layer 3313, the first charge generation layer 332, and the second hole transport layer 3331 can be eliminated, that is, the second light-emitting material layer 3332 can be directly set on the first light-emitting material layer 3312.

[0111] In an exemplary embodiment, the organic light-emitting layer may be an organic light-emitting layer that emits a first color light and an organic light-emitting layer that emits a complementary light of the first color light, the two organic light-emitting layers being stacked sequentially relative to the substrate, thereby emitting white light as a whole.

[0112] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the first electrode 30 on the substrate 10 covers the orthographic projection of the organic light-emitting layer on the substrate 10, that is, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first electrode 30 is greater than or equal to the cross-sectional area of ​​the organic light-emitting layer, which can improve the display brightness of the display substrate.

[0113] In an exemplary embodiment, the second electrode may be a planar electrode.

[0114] In an example embodiment, the second electrode is a transmissive electrode for transmitting light emitted by the organic light-emitting layer.

[0115] In an example embodiment, the second electrode is made of indium tin oxide or zinc tin oxide, or other transparent conductive material.

[0116] In an example embodiment, the display substrate further comprises an encapsulation layer and a color film layer on the side of the second electrode away from the substrate.

[0117] In an example embodiment, the encapsulation layer is a laminated structure and comprises a first inorganic encapsulation layer, a second inorganic encapsulation layer, and an organic encapsulation layer.

[0118] In an example embodiment, the first inorganic encapsulation layer is made of silicon nitride. The first inorganic encapsulation layer can prevent damage to the light-emitting structure layer during fabrication of the second inorganic encapsulation layer. The first inorganic encapsulation layer has good encapsulation properties and good adhesion to the second electrode, ensuring the encapsulation effect of the encapsulation layer.

[0119] In an example embodiment, the second inorganic encapsulation layer is made of silicon oxide. The second inorganic encapsulation layer can block water and oxygen from entering the light-emitting structure layer, prolonging the service life of the light-emitting structure layer.

[0120] In an example embodiment, the third organic encapsulation layer is made of parylene. The third organic encapsulation layer has good organic encapsulation properties and good particle coating ability, which can well coat the particles on the film layer to prevent the film layer from being pierced. In addition, the material with organic properties can well release the stress between the inorganic layers, preventing the film layer from generating micro-cracks or peeling due to high stress. The third organic encapsulation layer 43 also has good planarization properties, which can provide a relatively flat substrate for subsequent color film layer fabrication, preventing damage to the second inorganic encapsulation layer during the color film layer process.

[0121] In an example embodiment, the first inorganic encapsulation layer and the second inorganic encapsulation layer are formed by a deposition process, and the deposition density of the first inorganic encapsulation layer is less than that of the second inorganic encapsulation layer.

[0122] In an example embodiment, the color film layer uses white light combined with color film to achieve full-color display, and the white light combined with color film can achieve a high resolution of more than 2000, which can meet the needs of VR / AR.

[0123] In an example embodiment, the display substrate further comprises: a planar layer, a bonding layer and a cover plate. The planar layer is located on the side of the color film layer away from the substrate base plate; the bonding layer is located on the side of the planar layer away from the substrate base plate, and the cover plate is located on the side of the bonding layer away from the substrate base plate.

[0124] In an example embodiment, the material for manufacturing the planar layer can include: poly-p-xylylene; the material for manufacturing the bonding layer can include: silicon dioxide, and the bonding layer manufactured by inorganic material can better adhere to the cover plate. The cover plate can be a glass cover plate.

[0125] In an example embodiment, the display substrate further comprises: a sealant. The cover plate is fixed with the substrate base plate by the sealant. The sealant is arranged between the substrate base plate and the cover plate, which can provide protection against water and oxygen invasion, so that the service life of the silicon-based OLED display substrate is greatly improved. In another example embodiment, the sealant can be arranged on the side surface of the cover plate, and the four side surfaces of the cover plate and the substrate base plate are sealed by the sealant. The end surface of the sealant away from the substrate base plate is located between the surface of the cover plate adjacent to the substrate base plate and the surface of the cover plate away from the substrate base plate. Thus, the sealing effect can be ensured, and the thickness of the display substrate caused by the sealant protruding from the cover plate can be prevented.

[0126] In an example embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and 2 , the first electrode 30 can include: a first structure 31 and a second structure 32, wherein the first structure 31 is located on the side of the second structure 32 away from the substrate base plate 10.

If the "thin film" needs to be patterned during the entire preparation process, it is referred to as a "thin film" before the patterning process and a "layer" after the patterning process. The "layer" after the patterning process contains at least one "pattern". The "A and B are arranged in the same layer" in the present disclosure means that A and B are formed at the same time by the same patterning process. The "thickness" of the film layer is the size of the film layer in the direction perpendicular to the display substrate. In the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, "the orthographic projection of B is within the orthographic projection of A" or "the orthographic projection of A contains the orthographic projection of B" means that the boundary of the orthographic projection of B falls within the boundary of the orthographic projection of A, or the boundary of the orthographic projection of A overlaps with the boundary of the orthographic projection of B.
