The display panel 10 also includes a substrate 100, an isolation structure 200, and a light-emitting layer 300. The isolation structure 200 includes a first layer 210 and a second layer 220 located on the side of the first layer 210 away from the substrate 100, the first layer 210 and the second layer 220 are stacked to form the isolation structure 200, the orthographic projection of the first layer 210 arranged close to the substrate 100 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second layer 220 on the substrate 100, the area of ​​the second layer 220 is larger than the area of ​​the first layer 210, and the second layer 220 covers the surface of the first layer 210 close to the second layer 220, and at this time, the first layer 210 is recessed relative to the second layer 220 in a direction away from the isolation opening 240.

[0114] In some optional embodiments, the redundant electrode 420 is electrically connected to the isolation structure 200 .

[0120] In some optional embodiments, the material of the first encapsulation layer 500 includes an inorganic material.

[0121] In these optional embodiments, the first encapsulation layer 500 includes an inorganic material, which has good density and good barrier properties against water vapor and oxygen.

[0129] In these optional embodiments, the second layer 220 includes a conductive material, for example, the second layer 220 includes a non-metallic conductive material or a metallic conductive material. When the second layer 220 is a non-metallic conductive material or an insulating material, the second layer 220 is difficult to be etched during wet etching of the first layer 210 using an etching solution, so that the first layer 210 is more easily concavely arranged relative to the second layer 220.

[0130] In some optional embodiments, both the first layer 210 and the second layer 220 include metal materials, and the materials of the first layer 210 and the second layer 220 are different.

Since the etching rate of the first layer 210 is relatively high, when the etching solution is used for wet etching, even if the second layer 220 is etched to a certain extent, the first layer 210 is etched faster, so that the first layer 210 is set concave relative to the second layer 220.

Since the etching rate of the first layer 210 is faster, the waste generated by etching is more likely to enter other positions of the display panel 10, thereby causing adverse effects. After the third layer 230 is set, the first layer 210 can be well attached to the third layer 230, and the generated etching waste falls on the third layer 230, which is easy to clean.

[0147] The display device in the embodiments of the present application includes but is not limited to mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), tablet computers, e-books, televisions, access control systems, smart landline phones, consoles, and other devices with display functions.

[0148] The fourth aspect of the present application also provides a method for preparing a display panel 10. The display panel 10 may be the display panel 10 provided by any of the first and second aspects of the present application. Figures 1 to 10 The display panel 10 and referring to Fig.11 , Fig.11 1 is a flow chart of a method for manufacturing a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application. The display panel 10 has a first display area AA1 and a second display area AA2, the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the manufacturing method includes:

[0149] Step S01: preparing an isolation structure on a substrate, the isolation structure enclosing an isolation opening, a first layer and a second layer located on a side of the first layer away from the substrate, and an orthographic projection of the first layer on the substrate is located within an orthographic projection of the second layer on the substrate.

[0150] Step S02: Prepare a light-emitting layer on a substrate, the light-emitting layer including a light-emitting unit located in an isolation opening; the distance between the edge of the orthographic projection of the first layer on the substrate and the edge of the orthographic projection of the second layer on the substrate is an extension distance, and the ratio of the extension distance of at least part of the circumference of the light-emitting unit in the first display area to the extension distance of the circumference of the light-emitting unit in the second display area is 90% to 110%.

[0151] According to the preparation method of the embodiment of the present application, the isolation structure 200 is prepared by step S01, the display panel 10 has a first display area AA1 and a second display area AA2, and light can reach the photosensitive component through the second display area AA2, thereby improving the photosensitivity of the display panel 10. The display panel 10 also includes a substrate 100, an isolation structure 200 and a light-emitting layer 300. The isolation structure 200 includes a first layer 210 and a second layer 220 located on the side of the first layer 210 away from the substrate 100, the first layer 210 and the second layer 220 are stacked to form the isolation structure 200, the orthographic projection of the first layer 210 disposed close to the substrate 100 on the substrate 100 is located within the orthographic projection of the second layer 220 on the substrate 100, the area of ​​the second layer 220 is larger than the area of ​​the first layer 210, and the second layer 220 covers the surface of the first layer 210 close to the second layer 220, and at this time, the first layer 210 is recessed relative to the second layer 220 in a direction away from the isolation opening 240. When preparing the light-emitting layer 300, the light-emitting layer 300 has a large drop at the edge of the isolation structure 200, and the first layer 210 is concave relative to the second layer 220. The light-emitting layer 300 is difficult to connect at the edge of the isolation structure 200, so it breaks. The light-emitting layer 300 breaks to form mutually disconnected light-emitting units 310, thereby reducing the crosstalk of carriers in the light-emitting layer 300, improving the display effect of the display panel 10, and preparing the light-emitting unit 310 can be prepared without using a precision mask plate, which can reduce the development and use of precision masks and reduce the preparation cost. The light-emitting layer 300 is prepared through step S02. The circumferential extension distance D of at least part of the light-emitting unit 310 in the first display area AA1 is 90% to 110% of the circumferential extension distance D of the light-emitting unit 310 in the second display area AA2, so that the circumferential extension distance D of at least part of the light-emitting unit 310 in the first display area AA1 is close to or equal to the circumferential extension distance D of the light-emitting unit 310 in the second display area AA2, the overlapping areas of the first electrode 410 and the isolation structure 200 at two positions with similar extension distances D are similar, and the overlapping resistance of at least part of the first electrode 410 and the isolation structure 200 in the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2 is similar, thereby avoiding the problem that the circumferential extension distance D of at least part of the light-emitting unit 310 in the first display area AA1 and the circumferential extension distance D of the light-emitting unit 310 in the second display area AA2 is greatly different, thereby improving the brightness uniformity of the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2, thereby improving the performance of the OLED display product.

After step S01, the method further includes:

[0153] A first electrode 410 material layer and a first packaging material layer are prepared on the substrate 100 , and the first electrode 410 material layer and the first packaging material layer are patterned to form a first electrode 410 unit located in the first isolation opening 241 and a first packaging portion 510 ;

[0154] Prepare a second electrode 630 material layer and a second packaging material layer on a side of the first packaging part 510 away from the substrate 100 , and pattern the second electrode 630 material layer and the second packaging material layer to form a second electrode 630 unit located at the second isolation opening 242 and a second packaging part 510 ;

[0155] A third electrode material layer and a third packaging material layer are prepared on the side of the second packaging part 510 facing away from the substrate 100, and the third electrode material layer and the third packaging material layer are patterned to form a third electrode unit and a third packaging part 510 located in the third isolation opening 243, and a redundant electrode 420 and a packaging unit 520 located in the first light-transmitting opening 250.

[0156] In these optional embodiments, while forming the third electrode unit and the third packaging portion 510 located in the third isolation opening 243, the redundant electrode 420 and the packaging unit 520 located in the first light-transmitting opening 250 are formed. That is, when the last first electrode 410 and the packaging portion 510 are prepared, the redundant electrode 420 and the packaging unit 520 of the first light-transmitting opening 250 located in the first light-transmitting opening 250 are prepared at the same time. This can avoid damage to the redundant electrode 420 located in the first light-transmitting opening 250 caused by the patterning process in the aforementioned process, thereby ensuring the shielding effect of the redundant electrode 420.
