The second partition 412 extends to the side of the pixel defining portion 310 away from the substrate 100, which can expand the distribution area of ​​the light-emitting portion 410 to improve the problem that the light-emitting portion 410 is difficult to completely cover the pixel opening 320 due to process errors. The second partition 412 is in contact with the side wall surface 220, so that the side wall surface 220 can provide protection for the second partition 412.

[0114] Optionally, the thickness of the light-emitting portion 410 is less than or equal to the thickness of the isolation structure 200, for example, the thickness of the second partition 412 is less than or equal to the thickness of the isolation structure 200. The thickness of the light-emitting portion 410 refers to the extension dimension of the light-emitting portion 410 along the thickness direction Z of the display panel, the thickness of the second partition 412 refers to the extension dimension of the second partition 412 along the thickness direction Z of the display panel, and the thickness of the isolation structure 200 is the extension dimension of the isolation structure 200 along the thickness direction Z. When the thickness of the isolation structure 200 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second partition 412, the side of the second partition 412 can be completely covered by the side wall surface 220, and the isolation structure 200 can provide more complete protection for the light-emitting portion 410. At the same time, the thickness of the light-emitting portion 410 is less than or equal to the thickness of the isolation structure 200, which is conducive to the light-emitting layer 400 being separated by the isolation structure 200 to form the light-emitting portion 410.

[0115] In some optional embodiments, the display panel further includes a sacrificial portion 500, which is located on the side of the light-emitting portion 410 facing away from the substrate 100, for example, the sacrificial portion 500 is located on the side of the second partition 412 facing away from the substrate 100. When the light-emitting portion 410 is prepared by an etching process, a sacrificial material layer can be covered on the light-emitting portion 410, and then a material such as a photoresist is further covered on the sacrificial material layer to improve the effect of direct contact between the photoresist material and the light-emitting material on the light-emitting material. The light-emitting portion 410 is formed by patterning the sacrificial material layer and the light-emitting material layer, and part of the sacrificial material falls on the second partition 412 to form the sacrificial portion 500. The sacrificial portion 500 can also provide protection for the second partition 412.

[0116] Optionally, the sacrificial portion 500 is disposed around the pixel opening 320 , and the sacrificial portion 500 may be in a closed ring shape.

[0117] Optionally, the sacrificial portion 500 is located at one side of the second partition 412. The sacrificial portion 500 exposes at least a portion of the light emitting portion 410, which can improve the influence of the sacrificial portion 500 on the light emitting effect of the light emitting portion 410.

[0118] Optionally, the sacrificial portion 500 and the side wall surface 220 may be in contact and connected to increase the area covered by the side wall surface 220 , so that the side wall surface 220 can provide more complete protection for the light-emitting portion 410 .

[0119] Optionally, the total thickness of the sacrificial portion 500 and the light emitting portion 410 is less than or equal to the thickness of the isolation structure 200 , so that the side surfaces of the sacrificial portion 500 and the light emitting portion 410 can be completely protected by the side wall surface 220 .

[0120] The sacrificial part 500 may be integrally provided, or the sacrificial part 500 may include two or more sacrificial sub-layers stacked in a thickness direction.

[0121] Optionally, the material of the sacrificial part 500 includes at least one of oxide, nitride, metal, and organic material. For example, the plurality of sacrificial sublayers include a first sacrificial sublayer and a second sacrificial sublayer stacked in a direction away from the substrate, the material of the first sacrificial sublayer includes at least one of oxide, nitride, and metal, and the material of the second sacrificial sublayer includes an organic material. Optionally, the material of the second sacrificial layer includes a fluorine-containing organic material.

[0122] Optionally, an isolation opening 210 is provided on the isolation structure 200, and the sacrificial portion 500 can be located on a side of the isolation structure 200 facing the isolation opening 210 and arranged around the pixel opening 320. The annular sacrificial portion 500 can better provide protection for the light-emitting portion 410, thereby improving the yield problem caused by the light-emitting portion 410 contacting the photoresist at different positions on the circumference.

[0123] In some optional embodiments, the display panel further includes a flat portion 600, which is located on the side of the isolation structure 200 and the sacrificial portion 500 away from the substrate 100. The flat portion 600 can provide a flatter surface. When the second electrode layer 720 is subsequently prepared, the second electrode layer 720 is prevented from being cut off by the isolation structure 200, so that the second electrode layer 720 is continuously arranged on the surface of the flat portion 600, which can improve the yield of the second electrode layer 720.

[0124] Optionally, the orthographic projection of the isolation structure 200 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the flat portion 600 on the substrate 100. The distribution area of ​​the flat portion 600 is larger than the area of ​​the isolation structure 200, so that the flat portion 600 can cover the isolation structure 200 and the sacrificial portion 500 located on the side of the isolation structure 200 facing the isolation opening 210.

[0125] In some optional embodiments, the orthographic edge of the flat portion 600 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the sacrificial portion 500 on the substrate 100. The edge of the flat portion 600 is retracted relative to the edge of the sacrificial portion 500 in a direction away from the isolation opening 210, so as to improve the adverse effect of the flat portion 600 extending out of the sacrificial portion 500 on the light emission of the light emitting portion 410.

[0126] Optionally, the cross-section of the flat portion 600 gradually decreases in a direction away from the substrate 100. For example, the flat portion 600 includes a first top surface 610 facing away from the substrate 100 and a first side surface 620 connected to the periphery of the first top surface 610 and extending toward the substrate 100. In the direction away from the substrate 100, the first side surface 620 is inclined in a direction away from the isolation opening 210.

[0127] In these optional embodiments, the first side surface 620 is tilted relative to the thickness direction so that the second electrode layer 720 can fall on the first side surface 620 and the second electrode layer 720 can be continuously distributed on the flat portion 600, thereby improving the yield of the second electrode layer 720.

[0128] There are many ways to set the light-emitting portion 410. For example, the light-emitting portion 410 includes a second carrier functional layer 414 and a light-emitting structure 415. The second carrier functional layer 414 is located on the side of the light-emitting structure 415 facing the first electrode 110. The second carrier functional layer 414 includes at least one of a hole transport layer, a hole injection layer, and an electron blocking layer. Optionally, the second carrier functional layer 414 may also include at least one of an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a hole blocking layer. It should be noted that the second carrier functional layer 414 is not specifically limited, and it can be matched with the first electrode 110. Exemplarily, when the first electrode 110 is an anode, the second carrier functional layer 414 includes at least one of a hole transport layer, a hole injection layer, and an electron blocking layer; when the first electrode 110 is a cathode, the second carrier functional layer 414 may also include at least one of an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a hole blocking layer.

[0129] In some optional embodiments, the light-emitting layer 400 further includes a first carrier functional layer 710 covering the flat portion 600 and the light-emitting portion 410. That is, the first carrier functional layer 710 is a common layer, and the first carrier functional layer 710 is arranged to cover the light-emitting portion 410 and the flat portion 600 on the entire surface. The second electrode layer 720 may be located on the side of the first carrier functional layer 710 away from the substrate 100, and the second electrode layer 720 is arranged to cover the first carrier functional layer 710 on the entire surface. Both the first carrier functional layer 710 and the second electrode layer 720 may be a common layer.

[0130] Optionally, it should be noted that the first carrier functional layer 710 is not specifically limited, and can be matched with the second electrode layer 720. Exemplarily, when the second electrode layer 720 is an anode, the first carrier functional layer 710 includes at least one of a hole transport layer, a hole injection layer, and an electron blocking layer; when the second electrode layer 720 is a cathode, the first carrier functional layer 710 may also include at least one of an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a hole blocking layer.

[0131] Optionally, an encapsulation layer 900 is disposed on the second electrode layer 720, and the encapsulation layer 900 is used to provide encapsulation protection for the light-emitting portion 410. The encapsulation layer 900, for example, includes a first encapsulation layer 910, a second encapsulation layer 920, and a third encapsulation layer 930, the first encapsulation layer 910 and the third encapsulation layer 930 may be inorganic encapsulation layers, and the second encapsulation layer 920 may be an organic encapsulation layer.

[0132] In some optional embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the display panel further includes a redundant portion 800, and the redundant portion 800 is located on the side of the isolation structure 200 away from the substrate 100. During the preparation process of the light-emitting portion 410, part of the light-emitting material or sacrificial material falls on the isolation structure 200, and this part is not completely removed to form the redundant portion 800. For example, when the light-emitting material layer and the sacrificial layer are patterned using a photoresist, the edge of the photoresist portion falls on the isolation structure 200, and the photoresist covers part of the light-emitting material or sacrificial material located on the isolation structure 200, thereby causing part of the light-emitting material layer and the sacrificial layer on the isolation structure 200 to be not completely removed to form the redundant portion 800.

[0133] Optionally, the redundant portion 800 is disposed around the isolation opening 210. For example, the redundant portion 800 surrounds the sacrificial portion 500 in a ring shape.

[0134] Optionally, the sacrificial portion 500 and the redundant portion 800 are disconnected at the edge of the isolation structure 200 .

[0135] Optionally, the redundant portion 800 and the second partition 412 are disconnected, and the redundant portion 800 and the second partition 412 are discontinuous, so that the second partition 412 can contact the side wall surface 220 , so that the side wall surface 220 can provide protection for the second partition 412 .

[0136] Optionally, a redundant portion 800 is disposed on the circumference of each isolation opening 210 .

[0137] Optionally, the redundant part 800 includes more than two redundant sub-layers, and the material of one of the more than two redundant sub-layers is the same as the material of the light-emitting part 410, and the material of the other is the same as the material of the sacrificial part 500. As described above, when preparing the light-emitting part 410 and the sacrificial part 500, the distribution range of the photoresist will be appropriately expanded so that the photoresist covers the light-emitting material layer and the sacrificial layer on the isolation structure 200, thereby forming the redundant part 800. Therefore, the material of the sub-layer of the redundant part 800 is the same as the material of the second partition 412 of the light-emitting part 410 and the material of the sacrificial part 500.

[0138] The composition, preparation and other contents of the isolation structure 200 are further described in patents PCT / CN2023 / 134518, 202310759370.2, 202310740412.8, 202410008807.3, and 202311017132.0 for reference.

[0139] In some optional embodiments, the isolation structure 200 has a second top surface 230 facing away from the substrate 100, and the light-emitting portion 410 has a third top surface 413 facing away from the substrate 100, and the third top surface 413 is on the side of the second top surface 230 facing the substrate 100. That is, the second top surface 230 is protruded relative to the third top surface 413 in a direction away from the substrate 100, so that the light-emitting materials of the light-emitting portion 410 and the redundant portion 800 are disconnected, and at the same time, the side of the light-emitting portion 410 can be completely covered by the isolation structure 200, thereby improving the protection performance of the isolation structure 200.

[0140] Optionally, the isolation structure 200 includes a second bottom surface 240 facing the substrate 100, and the orthographic projection of the second bottom surface 240 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second top surface 230 on the substrate 100, that is, the size of the second bottom surface 240 is less than or equal to the size of the second top surface 230, so that a concave is easily formed under the second top surface 230, and the luminescent material is easily broken at the edge of the isolation structure 200.

[0141] Optional, such as Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the isolation structure 200 is integrally formed, and the cross section of the isolation structure 200 gradually increases in the direction away from the substrate 100, and the side wall surface 220 is inclined in the direction close to the isolation opening 210. In these embodiments, the isolation structure 200 is in an inverted trapezoidal shape, and the side wall surface 220 of the isolation structure 200 is easily concave, which facilitates the light-emitting material to break at the edge of the isolation structure 200.

[0142] In some other optional embodiments, such as Figure 6As shown, the isolation structure 200 includes a first sublayer 201 and a second sublayer 202 located on the side of the first sublayer 201 facing away from the substrate 100, the second top surface 230 is located on the side of the second sublayer 202 facing away from the substrate 100, the second bottom surface 240 is located on the side of the first sublayer 201 facing the substrate 100, and the orthographic projection of the first sublayer 201 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second sublayer 202 on the substrate 100.

[0143] In these optional embodiments, the isolation structure 200 is divided into a first sublayer 201 and a second sublayer 202 . The size of the first sublayer 201 is smaller than that of the second sublayer 202 , so that a concave can be formed under the second sublayer 202 , facilitating the breaking of the luminescent material at the edge of the second sublayer 202 .

[0144] Optionally, the isolation structure 200 may further include a third sublayer 203, which is located on the side of the first sublayer 201 facing the substrate 100, and the third sublayer 203 may be arranged to protrude toward the isolation opening 210 relative to the first sublayer 201. For example, the orthographic projection of the first sublayer 201 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the third sublayer 203 on the substrate 100. When the first sublayer 201 is side-engraved so that the size of the first sublayer 201 is smaller than that of the second sublayer 202, due to the presence of the third sublayer 203, the third sublayer 203 may provide protection to the film layer on the side of the substrate 100, thereby improving the impact of the first sublayer 201 on the film layer on the side of the substrate 100 when the side is engraved. Optionally, the material of the isolation structure 200 includes an insulating material, for example, the material of the isolation structure 200 includes an inorganic material and / or an organic material, so that the isolation structure 200 has good insulation performance, and when the light-emitting portion 410 and the side wall surface 220 of the isolation structure 200 are in contact and connected, the problem of carriers in the light-emitting portion 410 crosstalking with each other through the isolation structure 200 can be improved. For example, when the target light-emitting portion 410 is lit and the carriers move in the lit target light-emitting portion 410, the display problems such as color cast and crosstalk caused by the carriers moving to the nearby light-emitting portion 410 and causing other light-emitting portions 410 to be lit can be improved.

[0145] Optionally, the isolation structure 200 includes an inorganic material, and the isolation structure 200 includes two or more isolation sublayers stacked, and at least two adjacent isolation sublayers are made of different materials. By providing isolation sublayers of different materials, the isolation sublayers can be etched at different rates, so that the orthographic projection of the second bottom surface 240 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second top surface 230 on the substrate 100, so that the cross-section of the isolation structure 200 can be T-shaped, which facilitates the breakage of the light-emitting material at the edge of the isolation structure 200. The two or more isolation sublayers may include the first sublayer 201 and the second sublayer 202 mentioned above.

[0146] Optionally, when the isolation structure 200 includes an inorganic material, the material of the isolation structure 200 may include at least one of silicon oxide and silicon nitride, for example, the material of one of the two or more isolation sublayers is silicon oxide, and the material of the other one is silicon nitride.

[0147] Optionally, the material of the isolation structure 200 may also include an organic material. In this case, the isolation structure 200 may be an integrally formed arrangement. Please refer to the above. In the direction away from the substrate 100, the cross section of the isolation structure 200 gradually increases. The isolation structure 200 is in an inverted trapezoidal shape, which can simplify the shape of the isolation structure 200. In this case, the isolation structure 200 may be prepared by isomorphic negative photoresist.

[0148] Optionally, the isolation structure 200 may also include both organic materials and inorganic materials. The isolation structure 200 includes a first isolation sublayer and a second isolation sublayer stacked in a direction away from the substrate 100. The material of the first isolation sublayer includes an organic material, and the material of the second isolation sublayer includes an inorganic material. The first isolation sublayer may be the first sublayer 201 described above, and the second isolation sublayer may be the second sublayer 202 described above. The upper isolation sublayer is an inorganic material, and the lower isolation sublayer is an organic material, so that the lower isolation sublayer is easier to deform, making it easier to make the size of the first sublayer 201 smaller than the size of the second sublayer 202, thereby facilitating the breakage of the light-emitting material at the edge of the isolation structure 200.

When the light-emitting portion 410 is prepared by etching and other processes in the subsequent process, the etching solution can be improved to corrode and damage the light-emitting portion 410 from the side, thereby improving the yield of the light-emitting portion 410 and improving the performance of the display panel.
