Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a display panel and a display device. Background Art
[0002] OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display devices are widely used due to their advantages such as self-luminescence and flexibility. In order to reduce the influence of external reflected light, existing OLED display devices will set a polarizer on the OLED display device. However, due to the large thickness of the polarizer, the emitted light of the OLED display device will be absorbed, resulting in low light efficiency and high power consumption. In view of the problems existing in OLED display devices using polarizers, a depolarizer (Pol Less Panel, PLP) technology is proposed. By replacing the polarizer with a black matrix and a color resistor, the external reflected light is reduced while the light transmittance of the OLED display device is improved. In order to further reduce reflection, the OLED display device using PLP technology will use black materials to prepare the pixel definition layer, but because the black material is provided with a pigment, the pigment will have agglomeration phenomenon, resulting in an uneven pixel definition layer, and the luminescent material cannot cover the pixel definition layer, resulting in the destruction of the diode structure of the OLED display device. During normal display, the edge of the OLED display device is short-circuited, thereby forming a dark spot. In order to solve the above problems, existing OLED display devices use organic materials to cover the black pixel definition layer, but this will cause external light to pass through the organic material and irradiate the anode, thereby increasing the reflectivity of the OLED display device.
[0003] Therefore, existing OLED display devices have the technical problem of being unable to simultaneously eliminate dark spots and reduce reflectivity. Summary of the invention

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0031] In order to illustrate the principle of the technical problem of the embodiment of the present application, the embodiment of the present application provides some comparative display devices. It is understandable that these comparative display devices cannot be regarded as prior art. Figure 1As shown, a comparative display device using PLP technology includes a substrate 111, an array layer 112, an anode 113, a pixel definition film 114, a packaging film 115, a black matrix 116 and a color resist 117. In order to reduce reflection, the pixel definition film 114 is formed by doping a pigment in a transparent material. Since the pigment is dispersed in the transparent material through a dispersion process, the dispersed pigment will agglomerate, resulting in an uneven surface of the pixel definition film, such as Figure 2 As shown, the array layer 112 includes a flat film 121, the encapsulation film 115 includes an inorganic film 124, and the comparative display device further includes a light-emitting film 122 and a cathode 123. Figure 2 It can be seen that the surface of the pixel definition film 114 is uneven. When the light-emitting film 122 is set, the pixel definition film will break through the light-emitting film 122, causing the diode structure of the OLED device to be destroyed. When the voltage is input, the edge of the contrast display device is broken down and short-circuited, thereby forming a dark spot.
[0032] In order to solve the above problems, Figure 3 As shown, another comparative display device is provided with a black pixel definition film 131 and a transparent pixel definition film 132. The black pixel definition film 131 is wrapped by the transparent pixel definition film 132. Since the transparent pixel definition film 132 does not need to be doped with particles and the transparent pixel definition film 132 can cover the black pixel definition film 131, the black pixel definition film 131 can be prevented from breaking through the light-emitting film 122, thereby preventing dark spots from appearing. Figure 3 As can be seen in the figure, since a transparent pixel definition film 132 is required, when the light 133 is irradiated to the transparent pixel definition film 132, it will pass through the transparent pixel definition film 132 and irradiate to the anode 113, and the anode 113 will reflect the light. It is understandable that under the same opening area, compared with not setting a transparent pixel definition film, setting a transparent pixel definition film will increase the reflectivity of the contrast display device, resulting in a poor display effect. Therefore, the existing OLED display device has the technical problem of not being able to take into account both eliminating dark spots and reducing reflectivity.
[0033] In view of the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a display panel and a display device to solve the above technical problems.
[0034] like Figures 4 to 7As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, the display panel 2 includes a substrate 21 and a light-emitting functional layer 23 arranged on one side of the substrate 21, the light-emitting functional layer 23 includes a pixel electrode layer 231, a pixel definition layer 232 and a light-emitting material layer 233, the pixel electrode layer 231 is arranged on one side of the substrate 21, the pixel definition layer 232 is arranged on one side of the substrate 21 and covers a portion of the pixel electrode layer 231, the pixel definition layer 232 includes a first sublayer 311 and a second sublayer 312, the second sublayer 312 is arranged on a side of the first sublayer 311 away from the pixel electrode layer 231, and the first sublayer The layer 311 includes a first opening 321, a second opening 322 and a third opening 323. The light-emitting material layer 233 is arranged on a side of the pixel definition layer 232 away from the pixel electrode layer 231. The light-emitting material layer 233 includes a first light-emitting material portion 233a, a second light-emitting material portion 233b and a third light-emitting material portion 233c with different light-emitting colors. The first light-emitting material portion 233a is arranged in the first opening 321 and contacts the side wall of the first opening 321. The third light-emitting material portion 233c is arranged in the third opening 323 and contacts the side wall of the third opening 323.
[0035] The second sub-layer 312 is disposed in the second opening 322 and contacts the side wall of the second opening 322 , and the second sub-layer 312 has a fourth opening 324 in the second opening 322 , and the second light-emitting material portion 233 b is disposed in the fourth opening 324 and contacts the side wall of the fourth opening 324 .
[0036] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which arranges a first sublayer and a second sublayer so that the first sublayer includes a first opening, a second opening and a third opening, the second sublayer is arranged in the second opening and contacts the side wall of the second opening, the second sublayer is provided with a fourth opening in the second opening, the second luminescent material portion is arranged in the fourth opening and contacts the side wall of the fourth opening, the first luminescent material portion is arranged in the first opening and contacts the side wall of the first opening, and the third luminescent material portion is arranged in the third opening and contacts the side wall of the third opening, so that the second luminescent material portion does not form a dark spot, and the human eye is insensitive to the color light emitted by the second luminescent material portion, which can reduce the influence of the reflected light on the display effect, and the reflectivity of the corresponding areas of the first luminescent material portion and the third luminescent material portion can be reduced, thereby taking into account the effects of eliminating dark spots and reducing reflectivity.
[0037] Specifically, it can be understood that the embodiments of the present application take into account the different lifespans and luminous efficiencies of different luminescent materials. In actual design, the thicknesses of different luminescent materials are different, and the sensitivity of the human eye to different colors is different. The uneven surface of the first sublayer has different effects on different luminescent materials. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the second sublayer is arranged in the second opening, and the second sublayer is provided with a fourth opening in the second opening. Then, for the second luminescent material portion that is greatly affected by the first sublayer, the surface of the first sublayer is flattened by the second sublayer, thereby avoiding the appearance of dark spots in the corresponding area of the second luminescent material portion, and the human eye is not sensitive to the luminescent color of the second luminescent material portion, even if reflection occurs, the effect on the display effect is small; and the first sublayer has little effect on the first luminescent material portion and the third luminescent material portion, and the human eye is sensitive to the luminescent color of the first luminescent material portion and the luminescent color of the third luminescent material, then the second sublayer may not be arranged in the first opening and the third opening, thereby reducing reflection, and the probability of dark spots is low, then the effects of eliminating dark spots and reducing reflectivity can be taken into account.
[0038] Specifically, the display panel 2 further includes a driving circuit layer 22 , and the driving circuit layer 22 is disposed between the substrate 21 and the light-emitting functional layer 23 .
[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the second sub-layer 312 extends from the second opening 322 to the first sub-layer 311, and the second light-emitting material portion 233b extends from the fourth opening 324 to the second sub-layer 312. By extending the second sub-layer from the second opening to the first sub-layer, the second sub-layer can flatten the sidewall and the top of the first sub-layer, so that the second light-emitting material portion can be disposed on the second sub-layer, thereby preventing the uneven surface of the first sub-layer from penetrating the second light-emitting material portion and reducing dark spots.
[0040] In some embodiments, Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the first light-emitting material portion 233a extends from the first opening 321 to the first sub-layer 311, and the first light-emitting material portion 233a is in direct contact with the first sub-layer 311, and one end of the first light-emitting material portion 233a is in contact with one end of the second sub-layer 312, and the third light-emitting material portion 233c extends from the third opening 323 to the first sub-layer 311, and the third light-emitting material portion 233c is in direct contact with the first sub-layer 311, and one end of the third light-emitting material portion 233c is in contact with the other end of the second sub-layer 312. By extending the first light-emitting material portion to the first sublayer and directly contacting the first sublayer, one end of the first light-emitting material portion contacting one end of the second sublayer, the third light-emitting material portion extending to the first sublayer and directly contacting the first sublayer, and one end of the third light-emitting material portion contacting the other end of the second sublayer, the second sublayer in the area corresponding to the first light-emitting material portion can be removed, and the second sublayer in the area corresponding to the third light-emitting material portion can be removed, thereby eliminating the reflection of light in the areas corresponding to the first and third light-emitting material portions by the second sublayer, thereby reducing the reflectivity of the display panel.
[0041] Specifically, it can be understood that when the second sublayer reflects the light incident on the setting area of the first light-emitting material unit and the setting area of the third light-emitting material unit, the reflected light will pass through the first color resistance and the third color resistance respectively, and the human eye is more sensitive to the luminous colors of the first light-emitting material unit and the third light-emitting material unit, which will result in poor display effect. Therefore, the light corresponding to the setting area of the first light-emitting material unit and the setting area of the third light-emitting material unit can be removed to reduce the reflectivity.
[0042] Specifically, it can be understood that the above-mentioned embodiment is explained by taking the simultaneous removal of the second sublayer of the corresponding areas of the first light-emitting material part and the third light-emitting material part as an example, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this. Only the second sublayer of the corresponding area of one of the first light-emitting material part and the third light-emitting material part can be removed. For example, the first light-emitting material part extends from the first opening to the first sublayer, and the first light-emitting material part is in direct contact with the first sublayer, one end of the first light-emitting material part is in contact with one end of the second sublayer, one side of the third light-emitting material part extends from the third opening to the first sublayer and extends to the second sublayer, and the other side of the third light-emitting material part extends from the third opening to the first sublayer and directly contacts the first sublayer.
[0043] like Figure 7As shown, it can be seen that the first sub-layer 311 will be provided with a first opening 321, a second opening 322, and a third opening 323, and the second sub-layer 312 will be arranged in and around the second opening 322, so that the first sub-layer 311 and the second sub-layer 312 will be provided in some areas to form the pixel definition layer 232, and only the second sub-layer 312 will be provided in some areas.
[0044] Specifically, the embodiments of the present application are based on Figure 7 The arrangement of the openings shown is described by way of example, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto, and the arrangement of the openings in the display panel may be other arrangements.
[0045] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the display panel 2 also includes a color filter layer 26 and a black matrix layer 25, the color filter layer 26 is arranged on a side of the black matrix layer 25 away from the light-emitting functional layer 23, the color filter layer 26 includes a first color resist 261, a second color resist 262 and a third color resist 263, the first color resist 261 is arranged corresponding to the first light-emitting material portion 233a, the second color resist 262 is arranged corresponding to the second light-emitting material portion 233b, and the third color resist 263 is arranged corresponding to the third light-emitting material portion 233c, one end of the second sub-layer 312 is within the projection of the black matrix layer 25 on the substrate 21 and located between the first color resist 261 and the second color resist 262 on the substrate 21, and the other end of the second sub-layer 312 is within the projection of the black matrix layer 25 on the substrate 21 and located between the second color resist 262 and the third color resist 263 on the substrate 21. By making one end of the second sublayer located within the projection of the black matrix layer between the first color resist and the second color resist on the substrate, and the other end of the second sublayer located within the projection of the black matrix layer between the second color resist and the third color resist on the substrate, the area of the second sublayer can be reduced, the reflection of light by the second sublayer can be reduced, and the reflectivity of the display panel can be reduced.
[0046] Specifically, the light-transmitting color of the first color resist is the same as the light-emitting color of the first light-emitting material portion, the light-transmitting color of the second color resist is the same as the light-emitting color of the second light-emitting material portion, and the light-transmitting color of the third color resist is the same as the light-emitting color of the third light-emitting material portion. For example, the light-emitting colors of the first light-emitting material portion, the second light-emitting material portion and the third light-emitting material portion are green, blue and red respectively, then the light-transmitting colors of the first color resist, the second color resist and the third color resist are green, blue and red respectively, and the first color resist, the second color resist and the third color resist can be green color resist, blue color resist and red color resist respectively.
[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the second sub-layer 312 is also arranged on the first sub-layer 311 around the first opening 321, the second sub-layer 312 is also arranged on the first sub-layer 311 around the third opening 323, the first light-emitting material portion 233a extends from the first opening 321 to the first sub-layer 311, and extends to the second sub-layer 312, one end of the first light-emitting material portion 233a contacts the end of the second light-emitting material portion 233b, the third light-emitting material portion 233c extends from the third opening 323 to the first sub-layer 311, and extends to the second sub-layer 312, and one end of the third light-emitting material portion 233c contacts the end of the second light-emitting material portion 233b. By making the second sub-layer also arranged on the first sub-layer around the first opening and the third opening, the second sub-layer can cover part of the first sub-layer, avoid the second sub-layer from breaking through the first light-emitting material portion and the third light-emitting material portion, reduce dark spots, and because the second sub-layer is not arranged in the first opening and the third opening, the reflectivity of the display panel can be reduced.
[0048] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, it can be seen that the pixel definition layer 232 includes a first sublayer 311 and a second sublayer 312 , the first sublayer 311 includes a first opening 321 , a second opening 322 , and a third opening 323 , and the second sublayer 312 includes a fourth opening 324 .
[0049] Specifically, the embodiments of the present application are based on Figure 5 The arrangement of the openings shown is described by way of example, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto, and the arrangement of the openings in the display panel may be other arrangements.
[0050] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, there is a gap between the edge of the second sub-layer 312 on the first sub-layer 311 and the first opening 321, and there is a gap between the edge of the second sub-layer 312 on the first sub-layer 311 and the third opening 323; or the edge of the second sub-layer 312 on the first sub-layer 311 is flush with the upper side of the first opening 321, and the edge of the second sub-layer 312 on the first sub-layer 311 is flush with the upper side of the third opening 323. By making the edge of the second sub-layer on the first sub-layer and the first opening have a gap, and the edge of the second sub-layer on the first sub-layer has a gap with the third opening, the reflectivity of the display panel can be reduced, and by making the edge of the second sub-layer on the first sub-layer and the upper side of the first opening have a gap, and the edge of the second sub-layer on the first sub-layer is flush with the upper side of the third opening, the dark spot can be further reduced.
[0051] In some embodiments, the thickness of the second luminescent material portion 233 b is less than the thickness of the first luminescent material portion 233 a , and the thickness of the second luminescent material portion 233 b is less than the thickness of the third luminescent material portion 233 c .
[0052] In some embodiments, the luminescent color of the second luminescent material portion 233b is blue, the luminescent color of the first luminescent material portion 233a is green, and the luminescent color of the third luminescent material portion 233c is red; or the luminescent color of the first luminescent material portion 233a is red, and the luminescent color of the third luminescent material portion 233c is green.
[0053] In some embodiments, the material of the first sub-layer 311 includes a transparent organic material and a black filler, and the material of the second sub-layer 312 includes a transparent organic material.
[0054] Specifically, the transparent organic material includes one of polyimide, polymethyl methacrylate and phenolic resin. The black filler includes but is not limited to black pigments, specifically including carbon black, copper, cobalt, manganese, chromium, soda and other oxides and their composite oxide particles.
[0055] Specifically, taking the example that the luminous color of the first luminescent material part is green, the luminous color of the second luminescent material part is blue, and the luminous color of the third luminescent material part is red, during the preparation process of the display panel, the thickness of the second luminescent material part will be smaller than the thickness of the first luminescent material part, and the thickness of the first luminescent material part will be smaller than the thickness of the third luminescent material part. It is found that the area where dark spots appear is mainly the setting area of the second luminescent material part. From the perspective of reflectivity, the human eye is more sensitive to green light and insensitive to blue light. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the second sublayer can cover the first sublayer in the setting area of the second luminescent material part to reduce the reflection of the dark spots. Since the human eye is not sensitive to blue light, the impact on the display effect is small. In addition, in the setting areas of the first luminescent material part and the third luminescent material part, the second sublayer does not cover the first sublayer, which can reduce the reflectivity.
[0056] In some embodiments, the optical density of the first sub-layer is greater than 0.1.
[0057] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the driving circuit layer 22 includes an active layer 221 , a gate insulating layer 222 , a gate layer 223 , an interlayer insulating layer 224 , a source and drain electrode layer 225 and a planarization layer 226 .
[0058] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the display panel 2 further includes an encapsulation layer 24 .
[0059] Specifically, Figures 4 to 6As shown, the display panel 2 further includes a support column 27 , and the support column 27 is formed by the second sub-layer 312 and a portion of the second light emitting material portion 233 b .
[0060] It can be understood that the embodiment of the present application is explained by taking the second sub-layer and the second light-emitting material part to form a support column as an example, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this. The setting interval of the support column 27 is relatively large (there is only one support column in multiple pixels), so different film layers and materials can be used to form the support column.
[0061] Specifically, the light-emitting functional layer further includes a common electrode layer, and the common electrode layer is arranged on a side of the light-emitting material layer away from the pixel definition layer.
[0062] Specifically, the above embodiments describe the display panel in detail from the perspective of each film layer and the relative position or connection relationship of each film layer. It can be understood that when there is no conflict between the embodiments, the embodiments can be combined.
