Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a display panel and a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device. Background Art

[0002] During the manufacturing process of the organic light emitting diode (OLED) display panel, frame glue and filler are formed on the cover glass (CG). The filler is evenly arranged on the cover, and the frame glue is arranged around the filler. Then the cover glass is pressed on the driving substrate provided with the light emitting device layer. During the pressing process of the cover glass and the driving substrate, the filler diffuses, so that the filler fills the gap between the cover and the light emitting device layer and the driving substrate to form a filling layer.

[0003] However, since the driving substrate includes a middle part and a peripheral part surrounding the middle part, the light-emitting device layer is arranged on the middle part of the driving substrate, so that there is a step difference between the light-emitting device layer and the peripheral part. After the cover glass and the driving substrate are pressed together, this step difference will form a relatively wide clearance area. During the diffusion of the filler, the filler arranged between the light-emitting device layer and the cover plate will diffuse into the clearance area, so that after the filler forms a filling layer, the thickness of the edge part of the filling layer on the light-emitting device layer is less than the thickness of the central part of the filling layer on the light-emitting device layer. Due to the uneven thickness of the filling layer on the light-emitting device layer, the display area of ​​the display panel has a whitening phenomenon around it, which affects the display effect.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0071] The meanings of the terms used in this specification and claims correspond to the meanings commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in this specification and claims are only for the purpose of facilitating the description and understanding of this application, and are not intended to limit this application to the narrow interpretation of the specific terms used in the specification and claims.

[0072] See also Figure 1 , the manufacturing method of the conventional display panel 100a comprises the following steps:

[0073] Step K1: Provide a display substrate 10a, the display substrate includes a driving substrate 11a and a light-emitting device layer 12a, the light-emitting device layer 12a is arranged on the middle part 111a of the driving substrate 11a, and a step is formed between the light-emitting device layer 12a and a part 112a of the driving substrate 11a not covered by the light-emitting device layer 12a.

[0074] Step K2: forming a plurality of fillers arranged at intervals on one side of the cover plate 20 a.

[0075] Step K3: The cover plate 20a is pressed together with the display substrate 10a. After pressing together, the filler is filled between the cover plate 20a and the display substrate 10a to form a filling layer 30a. The first part of the filling layer 30a is located between the light-emitting device layer 12a and the cover plate 20a, and the second part of the filling layer 30a is located between the portion 112a of the driving substrate 11a not covered by the light-emitting device layer and the cover plate 20a.

[0076] See also Figure 1 In step K3 of the conventional method for manufacturing the display panel 100a, during the lamination process, the light emitting device layer 12a and the portion of the driving substrate 11a not covered by the light emitting device layer 12a form a clearance area CA. Since the filler is evenly arranged in step K2, the filler in the clearance area in step K3 cannot fill the clearance area CA, so that the filler above the light emitting device layer 12a diffuses into the clearance area CA. After the filling layer 30a is formed, the thickness of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is uneven, that is, the middle thickness d2 of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is thicker, and the edge thickness d1 of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is thinner, and d1 is less than d2. Among them, the reason why the edge thickness of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is thinner is that during the lamination process, the filler at the edge diffuses into the clearance area CA.

[0077] In the conventional display panel 100a, the middle thickness d2 of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is relatively thick, and the edge thickness d1 of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a is relatively thin, resulting in uneven thickness of the filling layer 30a above the light emitting device layer 12a, which may cause the display panel to be as follows: Figure 2 The white W phenomenon around the display area shown affects the display effect.

Meanwhile, the first inorganic encapsulation layer and the second inorganic encapsulation layer are extended to the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11 .

[0098] Optionally, the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11 is further provided with a retaining wall structure 13. The first inorganic encapsulation layer and the second inorganic encapsulation layer cover the retaining wall structure 13. The retaining wall structure 13 is used to prevent the organic ink of the organic encapsulation layer located in the display area AA from overflowing.

[0099] Optionally, the retaining wall structure 13 includes a first retaining wall 13a and a second retaining wall 13b. The first retaining wall 13a and the second retaining wall 13b are arranged on the peripheral portion 112, and the first retaining wall 13a is located between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the second retaining wall 13b. The first retaining wall 13a and the second retaining wall 13b are spaced apart, and the thickness of the second retaining wall 13b is greater than the thickness of the first retaining wall 13a.

[0100] Step S20: forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 arranged at intervals on one side of the cover plate 20. The cover plate 20 includes a main body 21 and an edge portion 22 arranged around the outer periphery of the main body 21. The volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22.

[0101] See also Figure 5 In step S20, in order to make the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the main body 21 smaller than the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22, this can be achieved by increasing the number of filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22, or by increasing the volume of a single filling droplet 23 on the edge portion 22.

[0102] Optionally, step S20: before forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 spaced apart on one side of the cover plate 20, it also includes forming a color filter layer on one side of the cover plate 20.

The black matrix layer is arranged on the main body 21, and the black matrix layer is provided with a plurality of openings, and one opening is filled with a color filter block. The color filter block includes a red filter block, a green filter block and a blue filter block. Red filter block. The red filter block corresponds to a red light emitting device, the green filter block corresponds to a green light emitting device, and the blue light block corresponds to a blue light emitting device.

[0103] After the color filter layer is formed, a filling droplet 23 is formed on the color filter layer and on the portion of the cover plate 20 not covered by the color filter layer.

[0104] Optional, see Figure 6 , a syringe T1 may be used to form a filling droplet 23. For details, please refer to Figure 6 The filling droplet 23 is squeezed into the syringe T1 by the pressure N. The piston rod T2 of the syringe T1 is fixed on the motor moving shaft driven by the servo motor T3 with screws, and can move up and down to control the syringe T1 to suck and spit out. Among them, the model of the servo motor T3 can be the MPP servo motor T3.

[0105] The process of the syringe T1 spitting out the filling droplet 23 includes: the three-way solenoid valve T4 opens the channel from the syringe T1 to the nozzle T5, and the filling droplet 23 is spit out from the nozzle T5. The process of the syringe T1 attracting the filling droplet 23 includes: opening the channel from the liquid supply tube T6 to the syringe T1, and the filling droplet 23 is squeezed into the syringe T1 by the upward movement of the piston.

[0106] It should be understood that the weight control of the filling droplet 23 is controlled by the servo pulse number of the servo motor T3 . The greater the pulse number, the more the piston rod T2 descends, and the greater the weight of the filling droplet 23 .

[0107] In addition, the syringe T1 needs to be regularly measured and corrected. The specific method is: add 50 drops of filling liquid droplets 23 to the beaker T7, weigh the weight with a high-precision balance T8, and compare the average with the set single drop of filling liquid droplet 23. If the comparison result is too large, the servo drive pulse number is corrected in the negative direction. If the comparison result is too small, the servo drive pulse number is corrected in the positive direction.

[0108] Optionally, before step S30, the following steps are further included:

[0109] A frame glue 40 is formed on the edge portion 22. The frame glue 40 is disposed around the periphery of a plurality of spaced filling droplets 23. The frame glue 40 is used to connect the cover plate 20 and the display substrate 10.

[0110] Optionally, after the filling droplets 23 and the frame glue 40 are formed on the cover plate 20 , the cover plate 20 is set by ultraviolet light, so that the frame glue 40 and the filling droplets 23 begin to harden, but not completely harden.

[0111] Step S30: Press the cover plate 20 and the display substrate 10 together. After the pressing, the filling droplet 23 is filled between the display substrate 10 and the cover plate 20, and a filling layer 30 is formed. The first portion of the filling layer 30 is located between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21. The second portion of the filling layer 30 is located between the peripheral portion 112 and the edge portion 22. The thickness d3 of the first portion of the filling layer 30 is less than the thickness d4 of the second portion of the filling layer 30.

[0112] Since in step S20, the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22 is greater than the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the main body portion 21, please refer to Figure 7 In step S30, the extra filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 can fill the clearance area CA and form a filling layer 30. This prevents the filling droplets 23 on the light-emitting device layer 12 from diffusing to the peripheral portion 112, improves the thickness uniformity of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21, eliminates the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improves the display effect.

[0113] Optional, see Figure 8 , the cover plate 20 and the display substrate 10 are pressed together under vacuum. Before pressing together, the cover plate 20 and the display substrate 10 are placed in a vacuum laminating machine T9. The vacuum laminating machine T9 includes a first pressing plate T10 and a second pressing plate T11. The cover plate 20 is arranged on the first pressing plate T10, and the second pressing plate T11 is pressed on the display substrate 10. During the pressing process, the vacuum laminating machine T9 evacuates the vacuum and applies pressure to the second pressing plate T11, so that the cover plate 20 and the display substrate 10 are pressed together.

[0114] Optionally, after the cover plate 20 and the actual substrate are pressed together, the frame glue 40 and the filling droplets 23 are completely hardened by heating, and the filling droplets 23 are hardened to form a filling layer 30 .

[0115] In the manufacturing method of the display panel 100 of the present application, in the step of forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 arranged at intervals on one side of the cover plate 20, the filling droplets 23 on the main body 21 and the filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 are arranged differently to increase the volume of the filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22, so that the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22. In the subsequent step of pressing the cover plate 20 with the display substrate 10, the filling droplets 23 added on the edge portion 22 will diffuse into the clearance area CA formed by the step difference between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11, thereby reducing the filling droplets 23 between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 from diffusing into the clearance area CA, making the thickness of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 uniform, eliminating the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improving the display effect.

[0116] In the first embodiment of the present application:

[0117] Optionally, the filling droplet 23 includes a first filling droplet 23a and a second filling droplet 23b.

[0118] Optionally, the volume of the first filling liquid droplet 23a is smaller than or equal to the volume of the second filling liquid droplet 23b.

[0119] Step S20: forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 spaced apart on one side of the cover plate 20 comprises the following steps:

[0120] S21 a : forming a plurality of first filling liquid droplets 23 a arranged at intervals on the main body portion 21 and the edge portion 22 .

[0121] See also Fig. 9In step S21a, a plurality of first filling liquid droplets 23a arranged in an array are formed on the main body 21 and the edge 22.

[0122] S22a: forming a plurality of second filling droplets 23b spaced apart on the edge portion 22. The second filling droplets 23b are spaced apart from the first filling droplets 23a. The volume of the first filling droplet 23a per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the first filling droplet 23a and the second filling droplet 23b per unit area on the edge portion 22.

[0123] See also Fig.10 In step S22a, a plurality of second filling liquid droplets 23b are formed on the edge portion 22 and are arranged at intervals, and one second filling liquid droplet 23b is located between two adjacent first filling liquid droplets 23a.

[0124] In the first embodiment of the present application, a plurality of second filling droplets 23b are formed on the edge portion 22 through step S22a, and the number of filling droplets 23 on the main body 21 and the number of filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 are set differently, so that the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22. In the subsequent step of pressing the cover plate 20 with the display substrate 10, the added filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 will diffuse into the clearance area CA formed by the step difference between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11, thereby reducing the filling droplets 23 between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 from diffusing into the clearance area CA, making the thickness of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 uniform, eliminating the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improving the display effect.

[0125] In the second embodiment of the present application:

[0126] In order to avoid redundancy, the second embodiment of the present application will describe parts different from the first embodiment of the present application.

[0127] The second embodiment of the present application is different from the first embodiment of the present application in that:

[0128] Optionally, the filling droplet 23 includes a first filling droplet 23a and a second filling droplet 23b.

[0129] Optionally, the volume of the first filling liquid droplet 23a is smaller than or equal to the volume of the second filling liquid droplet 23b.

[0130] Optionally, the second filling droplet 23b includes a first sub-droplet 23b1 and a second sub-droplet 23b2.

[0131] Step S20: forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 spaced apart on one side of the cover plate 20 comprises the following steps:

[0132] S21b: A plurality of first filling droplets 23a are formed on the main body 21 and the edge 22 at intervals, wherein the volume of the first filling droplet 23a per unit area on the main body 21 is equal to the volume of the first filling droplet 23a per unit area on the edge 22.

[0133] See also Fig.11 In step S21b, a plurality of first droplet columns 25a and a plurality of second droplet columns 25b are formed on the main body 21 and the edge portion 22. The first droplet column 25a includes a plurality of first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y. The second droplet column 25b includes a plurality of first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y. The first droplet column 25a and the second droplet column 25b are alternately arranged along the second direction X. The second direction X intersects the first direction Y. The first filling droplets 23a of the first droplet column 25a and the first filling droplets 23a of the second droplet column 25b are alternately arranged in the first direction Y.

[0134] The staggered arrangement of the first droplet columns 25a and the second droplet columns 25b can make the first filling droplets 23a in the odd-numbered columns and the first filling droplets 23a in the even-numbered columns staggered up and down, which is beneficial for the diffusion of the filling droplets 23 during the lamination process.

[0135] In a conventional syringe T1 , all the filling droplets 23 can only be set to the same volume, and the volume of a single filling droplet 23 cannot be differentially adjusted, resulting in the conventional clearance area CA being unable to be filled with the filling droplets 23 .

[0136] S22b: A plurality of second filling liquid drops 23b are formed at intervals on the edge portion 22. The second filling liquid drops 23b are arranged at intervals from the first filling liquid drops 23a.

[0137] See also Fig.12 , in step S22b, including:

[0138] S22b1: forming a first sub-droplet 23b1 between two adjacent first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y on the edge portion 22 .

[0139] S22b2: forming a second sub-droplet 23b2 between two adjacent first filling droplets 23a arranged along the second direction X on the edge portion 22 .

[0140] In the second embodiment of the present application, a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 and second sub-droplets 23b2 are formed on the edge portion 22 through step S22b, and the number of filling droplets 23 on the main body 21 and the number of filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 are set differently, so that the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplets 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22. In the subsequent step of pressing the cover plate 20 with the display substrate 10, the added filling droplets 23 on the edge portion 22 will diffuse into the clearance area CA formed by the step difference between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11, thereby reducing the diffusion of the filling droplets 23 between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 to the clearance area CA, making the thickness of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 uniform, eliminating the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improving the display effect.

[0141] Optionally, in step S22b1, it includes:

[0142] A first sub-droplet 23b1 is formed between two adjacent first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y on the edge portion 22. The first sub-droplet 23b1 is spaced at the same distance from two adjacent first filling droplets 23a along the first direction Y. The volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 is equal to the volume of the first filling droplet 23a.

[0143] In step S22b1, arranging the first sub-droplet 23b1 and the two adjacent first filling droplets 23a at equal intervals helps to increase the diffusion speed of the filling droplet 23 on the edge portion 22 during the lamination process, thereby improving the uniformity of the overall thickness of the display panel 100 and improving the display effect.

[0144] Optionally, in step S22b2, it includes:

[0145] A second sub-droplet 23b2 is formed between two adjacent first filling droplets 23a arranged along the second direction X on the edge portion 22. The second sub-droplet 23b2 is spaced equidistantly from two adjacent first filling droplets 23a along the second direction X. The volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2 is the same as that of the first filling droplet 23a.

[0146] In step S22b1, by arranging the second sub-droplet 23b2 at equal intervals from the two adjacent first filling droplets 23a, it is beneficial to increase the diffusion speed of the filling droplet 23 on the edge portion 22 during the lamination process, thereby improving the uniformity of the overall thickness of the display panel 100 and improving the display effect.

[0147] In the third embodiment of the present application:

[0148] In order to avoid redundancy, the third embodiment of the present application will describe parts different from the first embodiment of the present application.

[0149] The third embodiment of the present application is different from the first embodiment of the present application in that:

The second filling droplet 23b with a large volume corresponds to a large number of servo drive pulses, and the first filling droplet 23a with a small volume corresponds to a small number of servo drive pulses. The volume of the filling droplets 23 in different areas can be adjusted quickly and conveniently, thereby achieving an improvement in the uniformity of the overall film thickness of the display panel 100.

[0153] Optionally, the ratio of the volume of the second filling liquid droplet 23 b to the volume of the first filling liquid droplet 23 a is in the range of 1.1 to 2.0.

[0154] The ratio of the volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 to the first filling droplet 23a is in the range of 1.1 to 1.4.

[0155] The ratio of the second sub-droplet 23b2 to the first filling droplet 23a is greater than 1.4, and the ratio of the second sub-droplet 23b2 to the first filling droplet 23a is less than or equal to 2.0. The ratio of the second sub-droplet 23b2 to the first filling droplet 23a is 1.41, 1.42, 1.43, 1.44, 1.45, 1.46, 1.47, 1.48, 1.49, 1.50, 1.51, 1.52, 1.53, 1.54, 1.55, 1.56, 1.57, 1.58, 1.59, 1.60, 1.61, 1.62, 1.63, 1.64, 1.65, 1.66, 1.67, 1.68 , 1.69, 1.70, 1.71, 1.72, 1.73, 1.74, 1.75, 1.76, 1.77, 1.78, 1.79, 1.80, 1.81, 1.82, 1.83, 1.84, 1.85, 1.86, 1.87, 1.88, 1.89, 1.90, 1.91, 1.92, 1.93, 1.94, 1.95, 1.96, 1.97, 1.98, 1.99, 2.0.

[0156] Preferably, the ratio of the volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 to the first filling droplet 23a is in the range of 1.1 to 1.3, and the ratio of the volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2 to the first filling droplet 23a is in the range of 1.4 to 1.6, which has a better effect on improving the thickness uniformity of the display panel 100.

[0157] Step S20: forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 spaced apart on one side of the cover plate 20 comprises the following steps:

[0158] S21c: forming a plurality of first filling liquid droplets 23 a arranged at intervals on the main body 21 .

[0159] See also Fig.13 In step S21c, a plurality of first filling droplets 23a arranged in an array are formed on the main body 21.

[0160] S22c: forming a plurality of second filling liquid droplets 23b spaced apart on the edge portion 22. The volume of the first filling liquid droplet 23a per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the second filling liquid droplet 23b per unit area on the edge portion 22.

[0161] See also Fig.14In step S22c, a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 and a plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 are formed on the edge portion 22. The plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 are arranged around the periphery of the plurality of first filling droplets 23a located on the main body 21. The plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 are arranged around the periphery of the plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1. The volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 is smaller than the volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2. The volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 per unit area on the edge portion 22 is smaller than the volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2 per unit area on the edge portion 22.

[0162] In the third embodiment of the present application, a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 and second sub-droplets 23b2 are formed on the edge portion 22 through step S22c, and the volume of the first filling droplet 23a on the main body 21 and the volume of the second filling droplet 23b on the edge portion 22 are set differently, so that the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the edge portion 22. In the subsequent step of pressing the cover plate 20 with the display substrate 10, the second filling droplet 23b with a larger volume on the edge portion 22 can directly fill the clearance area CA formed by the step difference between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the peripheral portion 112 of the driving substrate 11, thereby reducing the diffusion of the first filling droplet 23a between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 to the clearance area CA, making the thickness of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 uniform, eliminating the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improving the display effect.

[0163] In the fourth embodiment of the present application:

[0164] In order to avoid redundancy, the fourth embodiment of the present application will describe the parts different from the third embodiment of the present application.

[0165] The fourth embodiment of the present application is different from the third embodiment of the present application in that:

[0166] Optionally, the filling droplet 23 includes a first filling droplet 23a and a second filling droplet 23b.

[0169] Optionally, the volume of the first filling droplet 23 a is smaller than the volume of the first sub-droplet 23 b 1 .

The first peripheral region 22a is disposed around the periphery of the main body portion 21. The second peripheral region 22b is disposed around the periphery of the first peripheral region 22a.

[0172] Optionally, the first peripheral area includes two first sub-portions 22a1 and two second sub-portions 22a2. The two first sub-portions 22a1 are respectively located on both sides of the main body 21 in the first direction Y, and the two second sub-portions 22a2 are respectively located on both sides of the main body 21 in the second direction X. The first direction intersects with the second direction, and the two first sub-portions 22a1 and the two second sub-portions 22a2 surround the first peripheral area 22a.

[0174] Step S20: forming a plurality of filling droplets 23 spaced apart on one side of the cover plate 20 comprises the following steps:

[0175] S21d: forming a plurality of first filling liquid droplets 23 a arranged at intervals on the main body 21 .

[0176] See also Fig.15 In step S21d, a plurality of first droplet columns 25a and a plurality of second droplet columns 25b are formed on the main body 21. The first droplet column 25a includes a plurality of first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y, and the second droplet column 25b includes a plurality of first filling droplets 23a spaced apart along the first direction Y. The first droplet column 25a and the second droplet column 25b are alternately arranged along the second direction X, the second direction X intersects the first direction Y, and the first filling droplets 23a of the first droplet column 25a and the first filling droplets 23a of the second droplet column 25b are staggered in the first direction Y.

[0177] The staggered arrangement of the first droplet columns 25a and the second droplet columns 25b can make the first filling droplets 23a in the odd-numbered columns and the first filling droplets 23a in the even-numbered columns staggered up and down, which is beneficial for the diffusion of the filling droplets 23 during the lamination process.

[0178] S22d: A plurality of second filling droplets 23 b are formed on the edge portion 22 , and the volume of the first filling droplet 23 a per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the second filling droplet 23 b per unit area on the edge portion 22 .

[0179] See also Fig.16 , step S22d comprises:

[0180] Step S22d1: forming a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 spaced apart from each other on the first peripheral region 22a.

[0181] Step S22d2: forming a plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 spaced apart on the second peripheral region 22b, wherein the volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 per unit area on the first peripheral region 22a is smaller than the volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2 per unit area on the second peripheral region 22b.

[0182] In the fourth embodiment of the present application, a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 are formed on the first peripheral area 22a and a plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 are formed on the second peripheral area 22b through step S22d, and the volume of the first filling droplet 23a on the main body 21, the volume of the first sub-droplet 23b1 on the first peripheral area 22a, and the volume of the second sub-droplet 23b2 on the second peripheral area 22b are differentiated, so that the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the main body 21 is smaller than the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the first peripheral area 22a, and the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the first peripheral area 22a is smaller than the volume of the filling droplet 23 per unit area on the second peripheral area 22b. In the subsequent step of pressing the cover plate 20 with the display substrate 10, the second sub-droplet 23b2 with a larger volume on the second peripheral area 22b can directly fill the clearance area CA formed by the step difference between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the peripheral part 112 of the driving substrate 11, thereby reducing the diffusion of the first filling droplet 23a between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 to the clearance area CA, making the thickness of the filling layer 30 formed between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 uniform, eliminating the whitening phenomenon around the display area AA of the display panel 100, and improving the display effect. The first sub-droplet 23b1 with a moderate volume on the first peripheral area 22a can diffuse to the second peripheral area 22b to fill the clearance area CA, and can also avoid that part of the second filling liquid diffuses into the space between the light-emitting device layer 12 and the main body 21 before filling the clearance area CA, so that the thickness of the edge portion 22 of the filling layer 30 above the light-emitting device layer 12 is greater than the thickness of the central portion of the filling layer 30, thereby improving the flatness of the filling layer 30 above the light-emitting device layer 12.

[0183] Optionally, the number of first sub-droplets 23b1 per unit area on the first peripheral area 22a is less than or equal to the number of second sub-droplets 23b2 per unit area on the second peripheral area 22b. When the volume of the clearance area CA is large, the number of filling droplets 23 on the second peripheral area can be increased to further improve the display effect.

[0184] Optional, see Fig.16 , step S22d1 comprises:

[0185] The step of forming a plurality of first sub-droplets 23b1 spaced apart from each other on the first peripheral area 22a comprises:

[0186] A first sub-row 26a is formed on the first sub-portion 22a1. The first sub-row 26a includes a plurality of first sub-liquid droplets 23b1 arranged along the second direction X at intervals.

[0187] A first sub-column 25c1 is formed on the second sub-portion 22a2. The first sub-column 25c1 includes a plurality of first sub-liquid droplets 23b1 spaced apart along the first direction Y.

[0188] Step S22d2 includes:

[0189] A second sub-row 26b is formed on the third sub-portion 22b1. The second sub-row 26b includes a plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 spaced apart along the second direction X. The second sub-droplets 23b2 of the second sub-row 26b are staggered in the second direction X with the first sub-droplets 23b1 of the first sub-row 26a.

[0190] A second sub-column 25c2 is formed on the fourth sub-portion 22b2. The second sub-column 25c2 includes a plurality of second sub-droplets 23b2 spaced apart along the first direction Y. The second sub-droplets 23b2 of the second sub-column 25c2 are staggered in the first direction Y with the first sub-droplets 23b1 of the first sub-column 25c1.

[0191] The staggered droplet coating method of the first sub-row 26a and the second sub-row 26b can increase the diffusion speed of the first sub-droplet 23b1 and the second sub-droplet 23b2 at the junction of the first peripheral area 22a and the second peripheral area 22b during the pressing process, which is beneficial to the diffusion of the filling droplet 23.

[0192] The staggered droplet coating method of the first sub-row 25c1 and the second sub-row 25c2 can increase the diffusion speed of the first sub-droplet 23b1 and the second sub-droplet 23b2 at the junction of the first peripheral area 22a and the second peripheral area 22b during the pressing process, which is beneficial to the diffusion of the filling droplet 23.
