[0081] The specific implementation of the embodiment of the present application is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiment of the present application.

[0082] The corresponding structural parts mentioned below, such as the isolation structure, are described in patents CN118251982A, 202410864269.8, PCT / CN2024 / 098407, PCT / CN2024 / 102783, PCT / CN2024 / 098217, PCT / CN2024 / 099419, PCT / CN2024 / 099072 , CN117979755A, CN117998900A, CN117062489A, CN117580403A, CN116583155A, CN116669477A, ​​CN117396039A, CN116669480A, CN116600606A, and CN117500332A are further described for reference.

[0083] In the process of implementing the present invention, the inventors discovered the following problems in the related art: Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the partial structure of an OLED panel prepared by a display panel preparation method is shown. During preparation, R pixels are formed first, then G pixels, and finally B pixels. Among them, the protruding portion SA of the first part of the isolation structure of the pixel formed later becomes longer and longer compared to the orthographic projection of the second part on the substrate. The SA of the finally formed B pixel exceeds the specified length, which in turn affects the overlap between the second electrode layer of the B pixel and the second part of the isolation structure, causing the overlap to fail, resulting in large-area darkening defects. In addition, if the SA of the B pixel (the protruding portion of the first part of the isolation structure compared to the orthographic projection of the second part on the substrate) exceeds the specified length, it will also affect the encapsulation effect of the corresponding encapsulation layer of the B pixel, allowing air and water vapor to intrude, further causing darkening defects, thereby affecting the yield of the OLED panel.

[0084] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a display panel. Figure 2 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0085] S102: forming a first electrode layer, a pixel definition layer and an isolation structure layer in sequence on the substrate.

[0086] Among them, the substrate is the basis of the display panel, most of which are thin and uniform. After depositing various layers of materials on the substrate through processes such as evaporation, gluing, exposure, and etching, a complete OLED structure is formed.

[0087] In one feasible manner, the substrate 10 can be implemented as a TFT (Thin Film Transistor) substrate. In this step, a first electrode layer 20 is first deposited on the substrate 10, and the first electrode layer 20 includes a plurality of first electrodes. The deposition process is a process of forming a "layer" on the substrate, which can be implemented by chemical vapor deposition, atomic layer deposition or physical vapor deposition. In one feasible manner, the plurality of first electrodes are obtained by photolithography of the deposited first electrode layer 20. The photolithography process is an important process in the production of planar transistors. In one example, a photoresist can be coated on the first electrode layer 20 and exposed to light. During the exposure process, the photosensitive agent contained in the photoresist undergoes a photochemical reaction, changing the solubility of the photoresist; the unnecessary photoresist portion is dissolved by a development step, and the portion of the first electrode layer 20 not protected by the photoresist is etched away, and finally the remaining photoresist is stripped off, thereby forming a plurality of first electrodes in the first electrode layer 20.

[0088] In one possible embodiment, the first electrode may be an anode.

[0089] In this step, after forming a plurality of first electrodes in the first electrode layer 20, a pixel definition layer 30 is deposited on the first electrode layer 20, and an isolation structure layer is deposited on the pixel definition layer 30. The isolation structure layer includes an isolation structure 40 and a plurality of isolation openings enclosed by the isolation structure 40.

[0090] In one feasible approach, a plurality of isolation structures 40 are formed on the isolation structure layer through a photolithography process. Specifically, the process may include: coating the isolation structure layer with photoresist and exposing the photoresist to light to change the solubility of the photoresist; dissolving unnecessary photoresist portions through a development step; removing portions of the isolation structure layer not protected by the photoresist through dry etching; stripping off the remaining photoresist; and forming the plurality of isolation structures 40 through wet etching.

[0091] The isolation structure 40 includes a first portion 41 and a second portion 42. The first portion 41 is disposed on a side of the second portion 42 away from the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the first portion 41 on the substrate 10 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10. The first portion 41 can be made of a metal material. In one embodiment, the first portion 41 is made of titanium Ti. In another embodiment, the second portion 42 is made of aluminum Al. The isolation structure 40 is capable of carrying and transmitting electrical signals.

[0092] The isolation structure 40 also includes a third portion 43, which is disposed on a side of the second portion 42 that is closer to the substrate 10. The orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the first portion 41 on the substrate 10 overlaps the orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10. In one embodiment, the third portion 43 is implemented as a metal film layer to prevent elements in the isolation structure layer from diffusing into the pixel definition layer 30, thereby increasing the service life of the display panel. In one embodiment, the metal film layer is made of molybdenum (Mo).

[0093] S104. Open a pixel opening on the pixel definition layer to set a first pixel, a second pixel and a third pixel in the pixel opening.

[0094] In one feasible manner, according to the position of each isolation structure 40 in the isolation structure layer, a plurality of pixel openings are opened at positions corresponding to the first electrode on the pixel definition layer 30 through a photolithography process, and the pixel openings and the isolation openings are arranged correspondingly. The first electrode is at least partially exposed through the pixel openings. In one feasible manner, the pixel openings are shaped to gradually increase in size in a direction away from the substrate 10, and are used to carry the pixel unit group. The partial schematic diagram of the film layer structure formed is shown as follows: Figure 3a As shown in part (1) of .

[0095] The pixel unit group may include a first pixel, a second pixel, and a third pixel arranged in sequence, each corresponding to a different pixel opening. The first pixel, the second pixel, and the third pixel are configured to emit light of different colors, thereby achieving color display on the display panel.

[0096] S106 . Before forming the first pixel in the first pixel opening corresponding to the first pixel, a protective layer is provided in the second pixel opening corresponding to the second pixel and the third pixel opening corresponding to the third pixel.

[0097] Before forming the first pixel, a photoresist is used to completely fill the second pixel opening 52 corresponding to the second pixel and the third pixel opening 53 corresponding to the third pixel using a mask. The photoresist at least partially covers at least a portion of the surface of the first portion 41 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 on the side away from the substrate 10, and at least partially covers at least a portion of the surface of the first portion 41 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 on the side away from the substrate 10. This protects the sidewalls of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 when forming the first pixel, and also protects the sidewalls of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 from being affected by the wet etching solution during the first pixel processing. The isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 refers to the isolation structure 40 that encloses the isolation opening on the side away from the substrate of the second pixel opening 52; and the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 refers to the isolation structure 40 that encloses the isolation opening on the side away from the substrate of the third pixel opening 53.

[0098] A mask is a processing structure used in the photolithography process. It can be made of transparent glass, transparent resin, or a hard light-shielding film. The mask image on the mask can be designed based on actual needs. Using the mask, the mask image is transferred to the area to be processed, determining which areas will be exposed and which will be blocked. This allows for batch replication of patterns, improving production efficiency.

[0099] In one feasible manner, the material of the protective layer 60 is realized as a negative photoresist. After exposure, the solubility of the exposed area of ​​the negative photoresist becomes insoluble, while the negative photoresist in the unexposed area remains soluble, and the negative photoresist in the unexposed area can be dissolved and removed by the development step; after the negative photoresist is coated on the pixel definition layer 30, the negative photoresist in the first pixel opening 51 area is not exposed with the help of a mask, so that the negative photoresist in this area is dissolved in the development step, while the negative photoresist in the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53 is exposed and can be retained in the development step, so that the protective layer 60 is set in the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53, forming a protective layer 60 as shown in FIG. Figure 3aThe film layer structure diagram shown by the arc in part (2) of the figure. The protective layer 60 at least partially covers at least a portion of the surface of the first portion 41 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 away from the substrate 10, and at least partially covers at least a portion of the surface of the first portion 41 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 away from the substrate 10. Among them, the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 refers to the isolation structure 40 that encloses the isolation opening on the side of the second pixel opening 52 away from the substrate; the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 refers to the isolation structure 40 that encloses the isolation opening on the side of the third pixel opening 53 away from the substrate. The retained negative photoresist can protect the sidewalls of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 when forming the first pixel, and at the same time protect the sidewalls of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 so that it is not etched when forming the first pixel.

[0100] S108. Form a first pixel in the first pixel opening. After forming the first pixel, remove the protective layer, and form a second pixel and a third pixel in the remaining pixel openings, respectively.

[0101] For example, the first light-emitting layer 70 is evaporated by evaporation, and after the first light-emitting layer 70 is evaporated, the second electrode layer 80 is evaporated. After the evaporation step is completed, a packaging layer 90 is deposited on the second electrode layer 80. The partial schematic diagram of the formed film structure is shown in FIG. Figure 3a As shown in part (3) of the figure, the first pixel includes a first light-emitting layer 70, a second electrode layer 80, and an encapsulation layer 90. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on a side of the first light-emitting layer 70 away from the substrate 10, and the encapsulation layer 90 is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10. In one embodiment, the material of the encapsulation layer 90 includes an inorganic material.

[0102] In one feasible manner, the second electrode layer 80 may be a cathode layer, which is used to cooperate with the first electrode to enable the first light-emitting layer 70 to emit light.

[0103] In one feasible manner, after the encapsulation layer 90 is deposited, the first pixel in each pixel unit group is patterned. In which, a photoresist 100 is coated on the encapsulation layer 90 area corresponding to the first pixel opening 51, and a partial schematic diagram of the film structure formed is shown as follows: Figure 3a The film structure is dry-etched to remove the portion of the encapsulation layer 90 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53. The partial schematic diagram of the film structure is shown in FIG. Figure 3aAfter removing the portion of the encapsulation layer 90 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53, the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53 is removed by wet etching, and a partial schematic diagram of the film structure is formed as shown in FIG. Figure 3b As shown in part (6), during this process, since the side edges of the second portion 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 and the side edges of the second portion 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are protected by the negative photoresist, they will not be lateral-etched by the wet etching solution. Continuing to peel off the remaining photoresist 100 and the first light-emitting layer 70 and the protective layer (negative photoresist) on the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53, the partial schematic diagram of the film structure formed is shown as follows: Figure 3b As shown in section (7), the first pixel patterning is completed. The second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the first pixel overlaps the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51, receiving the electrical signal transmitted by the second portion 42 to cooperate with the first electrode to cause the first pixel to emit light. During the stripping process, since the negative photoresist is easily stripped, no damage is caused to the first electrode under the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53.

[0104] After forming the first pixel, the protective layer 60 in the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53 is removed. In each pixel unit group, the second light-emitting layer 110 is continuously evaporated, and the second electrode layer 80 is evaporated on the second light-emitting layer 110. After the evaporation step is completed, the encapsulation layer 90 is deposited on the second electrode layer 80. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on the side of the second light-emitting layer 110 away from the substrate 10, and the encapsulation layer 90 is disposed on the side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10.

[0105] In one feasible method, a photoresist 100 is coated on the encapsulation layer 90 area corresponding to the second pixel opening 52, and a partial schematic diagram of the film structure formed is shown as follows: Figure 3b As shown in part (8) of the above. Through the above-mentioned dry etching, wet etching and peeling steps, the patterning of the second pixel is completed, and the partial schematic diagram of the formed film structure is shown as follows Figure 3b As shown in part (9) of FIG. 1 , during the patterning process of the second pixel, the side edge of the second portion 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 is affected by the etching solution in the wet etching step, resulting in inward retraction.

[0106] In a feasible manner, in each pixel unit group, the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80 are continuously vapor-deposited. After the vapor-deposition step, the encapsulation layer 90 is deposited on the second electrode layer 80. Photoresist 100 is coated on the area of the encapsulation layer 90 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53, and then through the above dry etching, wet etching, and stripping steps, the patterning of the third pixel is completed. A partial schematic diagram of the formed film layer structure is as shown in Figure 3b the part (10) shown in the figure. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on a side of the third light-emitting layer 120 away from the substrate 10, and the encapsulation layer 90 is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10. By sequentially forming the second pixel and the third pixel, the side of the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 is not etched, and the side of the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 is only eroded by the etching solution once. Thus, the influence of the etching solution on the side of the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 is reduced.

[0107] In a feasible manner, the first light-emitting layer, the second light-emitting layer, and the third light-emitting layer can be formed based on EL (Electro-Luminescence) materials.

[0108] In this step, since the side of the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 is not eroded, the side of the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 is eroded by the etching solution once, the first length of the first part 41 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51 is equal to the second length of the first part 41 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52.

[0109] For the protruding part SA1 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the projection of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51 on the substrate 10, the protruding part SA2 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the projection of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52 on the substrate 10, and the protruding part SA3 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the projection of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 on the substrate 10, there is SA1 = SA2, and SA1 < SA3. In a preferred embodiment, the range of the protruding part SA of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the projection of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the pixel opening on the substrate 10 is greater than 0.3 microns and less than 1.0 microns, specifically, it can be 0.4 microns, 0.5 microns, 0.6 microns, 0.7 microns, 0.8 microns, or 0.9 microns, so that the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel and the second part 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are successfully overlapped.

[0110] Specifically, the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51 refers to the isolation structure 40 that surrounds the first pixel opening 51 on the side away from the substrate.

[0111] The side edges of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are only corroded by the etching solution during the first etching process of the second pixel. As a result, the SA3 does not exceed the specified length, allowing the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel to successfully overlap with the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53. In conjunction with the first electrode, the third pixel successfully emits light, resolving the problem of large-area dimming caused by SA3 exceeding the specified length and improving the yield of the OLED panel. Furthermore, the SA3 does not exceed the specified length, allowing the encapsulation layer 90 to better encapsulate the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80, thereby isolating the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80 from the encapsulation layer 90, thereby isolating the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80 from the encapsulation layer 90 and improving the service life of the OLED panel.

[0112] In another feasible solution, after the first pixel is formed, the protective layer 60 in the second pixel opening 52 is removed, and the protective layer 60 in the third pixel opening 53 is retained.

[0113] In each pixel unit group, the second pixel is continuously formed; after the second pixel is formed, the protective layer 60 in the third pixel opening 53 is removed, and in each pixel unit group, the third pixel is continuously formed.

[0114] The side edges of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are protected by the protective layer 60 during the formation of the second pixel and are not corroded by the etching solution. Therefore, for the protruding portion SA1 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51, the protruding portion SA2 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52, and the protruding portion SA3 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53, SA1 = SA2 = SA3.

[0115] The implementation of each step in this solution can refer to the description of the corresponding parts in the aforementioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0116] As a result, SA3 does not exceed the specified length, allowing the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel and the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 to successfully overlap. This, in conjunction with the first electrode, allows the third pixel to successfully emit light, resolving the problem of large-area dimming caused by SA3 exceeding the specified length and improving the yield rate of the OLED panel. Furthermore, since SA3 does not exceed the specified length, the encapsulation layer 90 effectively encapsulates the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80, thereby isolating the third pixel from moisture and air intrusion and extending the service life of the OLED panel.

[0117] In another feasible solution, after the first pixel is formed, the protective layer 60 in the second pixel opening 52 and the third pixel opening 53 is removed, and the protective layer 60 is continuously formed on the third pixel opening 53 .

[0118] In each pixel unit group, the second pixel is continuously formed. After the second pixel is formed, the protective layer 60 in the third pixel opening 53 is removed, and in each pixel unit group, the third pixel is continuously formed.

[0119] The side edges of the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are protected by the protective layer 60 during the formation of the second pixel and are not corroded by the etching solution. Therefore, for the protruding portion SA1 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51, the protruding portion SA2 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52, and the protruding portion SA3 of the first portion 41 relative to the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53, SA1 = SA2 = SA3.

[0120] The implementation of each step in this solution can refer to the description of the corresponding parts in the aforementioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0121] As a result, SA3 does not exceed the specified length, allowing the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel and the second portion 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 to successfully overlap. This, in conjunction with the first electrode, allows the third pixel to successfully emit light, resolving the problem of large-area dimming caused by SA3 exceeding the specified length and improving the yield rate of the OLED panel. Furthermore, since SA3 does not exceed the specified length, the encapsulation layer 90 effectively encapsulates the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80, thereby isolating the third pixel from moisture and air intrusion and extending the service life of the OLED panel.

[0122] The embodiment of the present application further provides a display panel. The partial schematic diagram of the film layer structure of the display panel is shown in FIG. Figure 4As shown, it includes: a substrate 10, a first electrode layer 20, a pixel definition layer 30 and an isolation structure layer.

[0123] The first electrode layer 20 is disposed on the substrate 10 and includes a plurality of first electrodes.

The first electrodes are disposed corresponding to the pixel openings, and at least portions of the first electrodes are exposed through the pixel openings. The isolation structure layer is disposed on the side of the pixel definition layer 30 away from the substrate 10 and includes an isolation structure 40. The isolation structure 40 includes a first portion 41 and a second portion 42. The first portion 41 is disposed on the side of the second portion 42 away from the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the first portion 41 on the substrate 10 overlaps the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10. In one embodiment, the material of the first portion 41 includes titanium. In another embodiment, the material of the second portion 42 includes aluminum. The isolation structure 40 also includes a third portion 43, disposed on the side of the second portion 42 closer to the substrate 10, to prevent elements in the isolation structure layer from diffusing into the pixel definition layer 30, thereby increasing the service life of the display panel. The orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10 covers the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the first portion 41 on the substrate 10 covers the orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10. In one embodiment, the material of the third portion 43 includes molybdenum.

[0124] The pixel opening carries a pixel unit group, which includes a first pixel, a second pixel and a third pixel arranged in sequence; wherein the first pixel is at least partially set in the first pixel opening 51 on the pixel definition layer 30, the second pixel is at least partially set in the second pixel opening 52 on the pixel definition layer 30, and the third pixel is at least partially set in the third pixel opening 53 on the pixel definition layer 30.

[0125] Specifically, the first pixel includes a first light-emitting layer 70, a second electrode layer 80, and a first sub-encapsulation layer 91. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on a side of the first light-emitting layer 70 away from the substrate 10, and the first sub-encapsulation layer 91 is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10; the second pixel includes a second light-emitting layer 110, a second electrode layer 80, and a second sub-encapsulation layer 92. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on a side of the second light-emitting layer 110 away from the substrate 10, and the second sub-encapsulation layer 92 is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10; the third pixel includes a third light-emitting layer 120, a second electrode layer 80, and a third sub-encapsulation layer 93. The second electrode layer 80 is disposed on a side of the third light-emitting layer 120 away from the substrate 10, and the third sub-encapsulation layer 93 is disposed on a side of the second electrode layer 80 away from the substrate 10. After successfully overlapping with the second part 42 in the isolation structure 40, the second electrode layer 80 cooperates with the first electrode to cause the first light-emitting layer 70, the second light-emitting layer 110, and the third light-emitting layer 120 to emit light.

[0126] In a feasible manner, the materials of the first sub-encapsulation layer 91, the second sub-encapsulation layer 92, and the third sub-encapsulation layer 93 include inorganic materials.

[0127] For the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the first pixel opening 51, the protruding part SA1 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the orthographic projection on the substrate 10, the protruding part SA2 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the orthographic projection on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the second pixel opening 52, and the protruding part SA3 of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the orthographic projection on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53, there is SA1 = SA2, and SA1 < SA3; or, there is SA1 = SA2 = SA3.

[0128] In a preferred embodiment, the range of the protruding part SA of the first part 41 compared to the second part 42 in the orthographic projection on the substrate 10 in the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the pixel opening is greater than 0.3 micrometers and less than 1.0 micrometers, so that the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel and the second part 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 are successfully overlapped. <>

[0129] Thus, SA3 does not exceed the specified length, and further enables the second electrode layer 80 corresponding to the third pixel and the second part 42 of the isolation structure 40 corresponding to the third pixel opening 53 to be successfully overlapped, and cooperates with the first electrode to enable the third pixel to emit light successfully, solving the problem of large-area darkening caused by SA3 exceeding the specification and improving the yield of the OLED panel. At the same time, SA3 not exceeding the specified length enables the third sub-encapsulation layer 93 to have a better encapsulation effect on the third light-emitting layer 120 and the second electrode layer 80, thereby isolating the intrusion of moisture and air and improving the service life of the OLED panel.

That is, the orthographic projection of the second portion 42 on the substrate 10 is located within the orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10; the orthographic projection of the third portion 43 on the substrate 10 is located within the orthographic projection of the first portion 41 on the substrate 10.

[0134] In one possible embodiment, the material of the third portion 43 includes molybdenum.

[0135] A pixel unit group is carried on multiple isolation openings. The pixel unit group includes a first pixel, a second pixel, and a third pixel arranged in sequence.
