Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of OLED display panels, and in particular to an OLED display panel and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the related art, direct patterning of OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) specifically involves patterning the anode, cathode, and light-emitting functional layer. There are several methods: 1. Fine metal mask, which is a thin layer of metal, namely alloy foil, with a thickness generally within 100μm. Corresponding holes are prepared on the film as needed. The OLED material is evaporated onto the substrate through these holes to form a corresponding pattern. In this method, the metal mask is consumable and expensive, which also wastes a lot of OLED material. At the same time, the PPI (Pixels Per Inch) can only be around 400, thereby increasing production costs. 2. IJP (inkjet printing) printing method. This method uses expensive printers and is limited by printing accuracy. The PPI can only be around 200. At the same time, this method has a poor yield. The above two methods can only produce display panels with a low PPI. At the same time, the product yield of the device cannot be guaranteed, which cannot meet the production needs of the device.
[0003] With the development of technology, OLED panels can be patterned using the eLEAP ("environment positive", "Lithography with maskless deposition", "Extreme long life, low power, and high luminance", and "Any shape Patterning") method. This method alternates between OLED evaporation, photolithography, and dry etching. However, the dry etching process will damage the OLED light-emitting material or the anode surface, resulting in a decrease in the display performance of the device, which in turn cannot meet the device's usage requirements.

[0032] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in the first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an OLED display panel, which includes: an array substrate including TFT devices arranged in an array; a light-emitting device arranged on the array substrate, the light-emitting device including an upper electrode 23, a lower electrode 21, and a light-emitting functional layer 22 located between the upper electrode 23 and the lower electrode 21, and the array substrate having a wiring opening 11 corresponding to the wiring between adjacent light-emitting devices; an insulating layer 30 arranged on the upper electrode 23 of the light-emitting device, and the insulating layer 30 is provided with a through hole 31 leaking out of the upper electrode 23; a pixel definition layer 40 arranged on the array substrate and at least partially covering the edge of the light-emitting device, the pixel definition layer 40 at least including a pixel opening corresponding to the light-emitting device; a third electrode 50 arranged on the pixel definition layer 40, one end of the third electrode 50 being electrically connected to the upper electrode 23 through the through hole 31, and the other end of the third electrode 50 being electrically connected to the TFT device through the wiring opening 11; wherein the upper electrode 23 is electrically connected to the TFT device through the third electrode 50, and the lower electrode 21 is electrically connected to the wiring on the array substrate.
[0034] By applying the technical solution of the present invention, an insulating layer 30 is provided on the upper electrode 23, which can prevent processes such as etching from damaging the structure of the light-emitting device, thereby protecting the structure of the light-emitting device to ensure that the light-emitting device can work normally without affecting the display performance of the device. In addition, a pixel definition layer 40 is provided between two adjacent light-emitting devices to prevent mutual interference between adjacent light-emitting devices, thereby improving the stability of the device during operation to meet the use requirements of the device.
[0035] The TFT device includes a gate 101, an active layer 18, and a source 12 / drain 102 located above the gate 101. The array substrate also includes a cathode signal trace 105, which is located on the same layer as the source 12 / drain 102. A transparent anode is electrically connected to the source 12, and a transparent cathode or a reflective cathode is electrically connected to the cathode signal trace 105. The TFT device can be used to form a pixel driver circuit corresponding to each light-emitting device. The pixel driver circuit can be connected to the light-emitting device to drive the light-emitting device to emit light.
[0036] The array substrate further includes a light shielding layer 16 , which is located below the TFT device. The drain electrode 102 is electrically connected to the active layer 18 and the light shielding layer 16 .
[0037] In the present application, the array substrate also includes a base substrate 14, a buffer layer 15, a gate insulating layer 19, an interlayer dielectric layer 17, a cathode signal line 105, a passivation layer 103 and a planarization layer 104 located on the base substrate 14. These functional layers are configured to form transistors, capacitors and multiple signal lines for pixel driving in the pixel driving circuit. For example, the multiple signal lines may include: power signal lines, data signal lines, reset signal lines, scan signal lines, enable signal lines and initialization signal lines, etc. For details, please refer to the relevant technology and will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that in other examples, the driving circuit layer may also include more or fewer functional layers. For example, it may also include more cathode signal lines 105. The specific setting is based on the needs of the actual product, and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0038] Furthermore, the base substrate 14 can be made of an organic material that has insulating properties and is flexible, thereby enabling heat treatment at temperatures equal to or greater than approximately 450°C. The base substrate 14 can be formed as a single layer, for example, of polyimide, or can be formed as multiple layers of polyimide repeatedly stacked through coating and curing. It can also include one or more inorganic insulating layers, such as silicon oxide or silicon nitride. The buffer layer 15 can provide a planarization layer 104 on the upper surface of the base substrate 14 and can block or prevent impurities and moisture from penetrating from the base into the light-emitting device.
[0039] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in the present application, the light emitting device is manufactured on the planarization layer 104 of the array substrate, and R pixels, G pixels and B pixels are obtained through a single photolithography process.
[0040] The gate insulating layer 19 may be a single layer or a plurality of layers including at least one of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), silicon nitride, and silicon oxide.
[0041] The interlayer dielectric layer 17 may be formed as a plurality of layers or a single layer, for example, of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), silicon nitride, or silicon oxide.
[0042] The gate electrode 101 may be formed as a plurality of layers or a single layer including a low-resistance material such as Al, Ti, Mo, Cu, Ni, or an alloy thereof, or a material having high corrosion resistance. The source electrode 12 and the drain electrode 102 may be formed as a plurality of layers or a single layer including a low-resistance material such as Al, Ti, Mo, Cu, Ni, or an alloy thereof, or a material having high corrosion resistance.
[0043] In addition, the gate 101 , the source 12 , and the drain 102 are respectively a control electrode, an input electrode, and an output electrode of the thin film transistor in the driving circuit.
[0044] Optionally, the light-emitting functional layer 22 includes a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer and an electron injection layer stacked in sequence.
[0045] The electron transport layer may include a material capable of transporting electrons. The electron transport layer may be intrinsic (undoped) or doped, and doping may be used to enhance conductivity. This embodiment does not limit the material of the electron transport layer.
[0046] The electron injection layer may include a material capable of injecting electrons. In some embodiments, the material of the electron injection layer may include sodium fluoride (NaF), or the material of the electron injection layer may include an n-type doped electron transport layer material.
[0047] For example, the electron transport layer and the electron injection layer may be formed by performing an evaporation process using an open mask with an opening in the display region (or light emitting region).
[0048] In the present application, the lower electrode 21 is a cathode, the upper electrode 23 is an anode, and the upper electrode 23 is a transparent structure, while the lower electrode 21 is an opaque reflective structure, which can ensure the transparency of the device and improve the display effect.
[0049] Optionally, in other embodiments of the present application, the lower electrode 21 can be set as an anode, and the upper electrode 23 can be set as a cathode. The specific selection should be made according to the use environment of the device, which can improve the applicability and scope of application of the device.
[0050] The "transparency" mentioned in this embodiment does not limit the transmittance to 100%, but rather has a certain transmittance and can achieve a light-transmitting effect. For example, the transparent material may include transparent conductive oxides such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO). For another example, the transparent material may include metal materials such as metallic silver and silver-magnesium alloy, wherein the metallic silver and silver-magnesium alloy can be made to have a very small thickness (for example, 1 nanometer to 10 nanometers) so that they have a certain transmittance (for example, a transmittance greater than 80%). It should be noted that the present disclosure does not limit the material of the upper electrode 23, as long as the material is a transparent conductive material.
[0051] Specifically, the array substrate further has a plurality of third openings 13, each of which is connected to a corresponding cathode signal trace 105. The lower electrode 21 is connected to the corresponding cathode signal trace 105 through the third openings 13. By setting up the above structure, the cathode signal trace 105 serves as an auxiliary electrode, which can provide a stable current to the lower electrode 21, thereby further ensuring the normal operation of the device.
[0052] Furthermore, the projections of the insulating layer 30 and the corresponding light-emitting devices along the thickness direction of the OLED display panel overlap. This arrangement not only makes the structure of the device integrated, but also facilitates and reduces the processing difficulty of the device, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the device and reducing the production cost of the device.
[0053] Specifically, the OLED display panel also includes an encapsulation layer 60, which is located on a side of the insulating layer 30 and the pixel definition layer 40 that is away from the array substrate. The encapsulation layer 60 can encapsulate the array substrate, preventing external water, oxygen, etc. from invading the interior of the array substrate, thereby protecting the components within the array substrate (such as the light-emitting devices).
[0054] For example, the encapsulation layer 60 may include a first encapsulation layer 60, a second encapsulation layer 60, and a third encapsulation layer 60 stacked in sequence. The materials of the first encapsulation layer 60 and the third encapsulation layer 60 may include inorganic materials, such as silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, etc. Inorganic materials have high density and can prevent the intrusion of water, oxygen, etc. For example, the first encapsulation layer 60 and the third encapsulation layer 60 can be formed by a process such as chemical vapor deposition. For example, the material of the second encapsulation layer 60 may include an organic material, such as a polymer material containing a desiccant or a polymer material that can block water vapor, such as a polymer resin. For example, the second encapsulation layer 60 can be formed by a process such as inkjet printing.
