[0042] Figure 1 It is a top view of a light-emitting device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an AA cross section is provided. Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the light-emitting device includes: a light-emitting substrate 10, an adhesive layer 20 and a plurality of monochromatic light-emitting structures 50, the light-emitting substrate 10 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 in opposite directions, the adhesive layer 20 is located on the second surface 12, and the plurality of monochromatic light-emitting structures 50 are arranged at intervals on the surface of the adhesive layer 20 away from the light-emitting substrate 10.
[0043] Exemplarily, the plurality of monochromatic light emitting structures 50 are arranged at intervals on the surface of the bonding layer 20 , and do not overlap in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the light output substrate 10 .
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the first surface 11 has a plurality of protrusion structures 100 arranged at intervals, and the protrusion structures 100 include a light-transmitting layer 110 and a reflective layer 120 stacked in sequence in a direction away from the light-emitting substrate 10 .
[0045] The light-emitting device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is provided with a plurality of convex structures 100 arranged at intervals on the first surface 11 of the light-emitting substrate 10 away from the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50. Among them, the convex structure 100 includes a light-transmitting layer 110 and a reflective layer 120 stacked in sequence in a direction away from the light-emitting substrate 10. When light is emitted from the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 to the first surface 11 of the light-emitting substrate 10, part of the light will be incident on the convex structure 100, pass through the light-transmitting layer 110 and then be incident on the reflective layer 120, and be reflected at the reflective layer 120, thereby changing the angle of part of the emitted light, so that part of the light can be emitted obliquely. Compared with directly setting the reflective layer 120 on the first surface of the light-emitting substrate 10, the light is directly reflected back to the light-emitting substrate 10 at the reflective layer 120; a light-transmitting layer is also set between the reflective layer 120 and the light-emitting substrate 10, so that the light can be emitted from the light-emitting substrate 10 and then reflected by the reflective layer 120. Since part of the light is no longer emitted in the direction perpendicular to the original light-emitting substrate, but is reflected to other directions at the reflective layer 120, the emission direction of part of the light can be changed, so that part of the light can be emitted obliquely. That is, the light is emitted from the light-emitting device and then reflected to other directions, which is conducive to more light being emitted obliquely, increasing the luminous intensity of the light-emitting device lateral light, and improving the display effect of the light-emitting device.
[0046] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the surface of the light-transmitting layer 110 away from the light-emitting substrate 10 is an inclined surface, which has a non-zero angle with the first surface 11 , faces the geometric center of the first surface 11 , and the reflective layer 120 is located on the inclined surface.
[0047] By setting the surface of the light-transmitting layer 110 away from the light-emitting substrate 10 as an inclined surface, when the light is emitted vertically from the light-emitting substrate 10, it will be reflected by the reflective layer 120 set on the inclined surface. Figure 2 As shown by the middle arrow, the light emitted vertically from the light emitting substrate 10 will be reflected at the reflective layer 120 in a direction away from the geometric center of the first surface 11, so that more light can be emitted obliquely, thereby increasing the luminous intensity of the lateral light emitted by the light emitting device and improving the display effect of the light emitting device.
[0048] Optionally, the reflective layer 120 includes a plurality of first material layers 121 and a plurality of second material layers 122 that are alternately stacked, and the first material layers 121 and the second material layers 122 have different refractive indices.
[0049] Exemplarily, the first material layer 121 is a silicon oxide layer, and the second material layer 122 is a titanium oxide layer. A distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) layer can be formed by periodically alternating multiple silicon oxide layers and titanium oxide layers. The number of periods of the DBR layer can be between 20 and 50. For example, the number of periods of the DBR layer is 32.
[0050] As an example, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer in the DBR layer may be 80 angstroms to 120 angstroms, and the thickness of the titanium oxide layer may be 50 angstroms to 90 angstroms.
[0051] Optionally, the reflective layer 120 includes a metal layer. The good reflective properties of metal can improve the reflective effect of the reflective layer 120 . Meanwhile, the use of a metal layer to make the reflective layer 120 does not require the preparation of multiple different film layers, thus effectively improving the preparation efficiency of the reflective layer 120 .
[0052] Exemplarily, the reflective layer 120 includes at least one of an Au layer, an Ag layer, and an Al layer.
[0053] Figure 3 is a bottom view of a light emitting device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 As shown, the protruding structures 100 are arranged in the edge region of the first surface 11 , and the edge region surrounds the geometric center of the first surface 11 .
[0054] Since the luminous intensity of the middle part of the light-emitting device is relatively strong, it is the main display area of the light-emitting device. In order to avoid the convex structure 100 being set on the light-emitting side of the light-emitting device to affect the luminous effect of the main display area of the light-emitting device, the convex structure 100 is controlled at the edge area to ensure that the light-emitting device has a good display effect, and part of the light in the edge area can be emitted obliquely to increase the amount of oblique light emission, increase the luminous intensity of the lateral light emitted by the light-emitting device, and improve the display effect of the light-emitting device.
[0055] Optionally, the shape of the protruding structure may be at least one of a circle, an ellipse and a polygon.
[0056] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the protruding structure is circular. Since the surface of the protruding structure away from the light emitting substrate is an inclined surface, Figure 3 The shape of the bottom view shown in FIG. 1 is an ellipse.
[0057] Alternatively, if Figure 3 As shown, the protrusion structures on the first surface may be arranged in a circumferentially spaced manner with the geometric center of the first surface as the center.
[0058] It should be noted that the arrangement of the protruding structures may also be other arrangements, as long as the protruding structures are arranged at intervals, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0059] Exemplarily, the edge region may be an annular region surrounding the geometric center of the first surface 11 .
[0060] Optionally, a ratio of the width of the edge region to the half-width of the first surface 11 is less than or equal to 0.3.
[0061] The width of the edge area is the distance between the outer contour line and the inner contour line of the edge area.
[0062] Exemplarily, when the shape of the edge region is a circular ring, the width of the edge region is the width of the circular ring.
[0063] The half width of the first surface 11 is the distance from the peripheral edge of the first surface 11 to the center line of the first surface 11 .
[0064] Exemplarily, when the light output substrate 10 is a circular plate, the half width of the first surface 11 is the radius of the first surface 11 .
[0065] In the above implementation, controlling the ratio of the width of the edge area to the half-width of the first surface 11 within the above range can avoid the edge area being too wide, which would cause the range of the protruding structure 100 set on the first surface 11 to be too large, occupying a larger area of the first surface 11, and affecting the light-emitting effect of the light-emitting device.
[0066] Exemplarily, the ratio of the width of the edge region to the half width of the first surface 11 may be 0.2.
[0067] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, at most a portion of the orthographic projection of the protruding structure 100 on the first surface intersects with the orthographic projection of the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 on the first surface 11 .
[0068] In this way, most of the light is arranged in the edge area, and only a small amount of raised structures and the monochrome light-emitting structure are overlapped, so as to avoid more raised structures blocking the light output of the monochrome light-emitting structure. While ensuring that the light-emitting device has a good display effect, part of the light in the edge area can be emitted obliquely to increase the amount of oblique light output, increase the luminous intensity of the lateral light output of the light-emitting device, and improve the display effect of the light-emitting device.
[0069] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the light emitting device further includes a light absorbing layer 30 and a passivation layer 40. The light absorbing layer 30 is located on the surface of the bonding layer 20 away from the light emitting substrate 10 and at least surrounds the sidewalls of each monochromatic light emitting structure 50.
[0070] like Figure 2As shown, the passivation layer 40 is located on the surface of the light absorbing layer 30 away from the light emitting substrate 10 .
[0071] In the light-emitting device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple monochromatic light-emitting structures 50 are fixed on the light-emitting substrate 10 through the adhesive layer 20, which can improve the connection reliability between the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 and the light-emitting substrate 10. At the same time, multiple monochromatic light-emitting structures 50 are arranged at intervals on the surface of the adhesive layer 20, and a light absorption layer 30 is arranged around the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50, and the light absorption layer 30 at least surrounds the side wall of the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50. In this way, when the light emitted obliquely from the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 will be absorbed by the light absorption layer 30, thereby avoiding the problem of light crosstalk caused by the light being emitted obliquely to the adjacent monochromatic light-emitting structure 50, and ensuring the display effect of the light-emitting device. In addition, a passivation layer 40 is also arranged on the light absorption layer 30, and the passivation layer 40 covers the light absorption layer 30 to isolate the light absorption layer 30 from contacting other film layers, which can protect the light absorption layer 30.
[0072] Optionally, the reflectivity of the light absorbing layer 30 is less than or equal to 20%. Using a light absorbing layer 30 with a reflectivity less than the above range can ensure that most of the light incident on the light absorbing layer 30 is absorbed by the light absorbing layer 30, thereby reducing the light crosstalk problem caused by light reflection.
[0073] Optionally, the light absorbing layer 30 includes an insulating material layer 31 and a black filler 32 located in the insulating material layer 31 .
[0074] Exemplarily, the insulating material layer 31 may be at least one of a silicon oxide layer, a titanium oxide layer, and an aluminum oxide layer.
[0075] Exemplarily, the thickness of the insulating material layer 31 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 , so as to ensure that the light absorbing layer 30 can completely surround the side wall of the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 .
[0076] For example, the black filler 32 may be carbon particles, carbon nanotube particles, metal particles or black pigment.
[0077] In this way, the insulating material layer 31 is filled with black filler 32, so that the light absorbing layer 30 is black, which can not only absorb light well, but also make the background of the monochrome light-emitting structure 50 black, so as to improve the contrast and enhance the display effect of the light-emitting device.
[0078] Optionally, the density of the black filler 32 in the insulating material layer 31 close to the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 is greater than the density of the black filler 32 in the insulating material layer 31 far from the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 .
[0079] In this way, the density of the black filler 32 in the portion of the film layer on the insulating material layer 31 closest to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is higher, so that the light absorption effect of the portion of the film layer closest to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is better, and the oblique light emission of the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 can be avoided to the greatest extent. The density of the black filler 32 in the portion of the film layer on the insulating material layer 31 far from the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is lower, which can reduce the amount of black filler 32 used, thereby saving the preparation cost.
[0080] Exemplarily, when the black filler 32 is carbon particles, the particle size of the carbon particles in the portion of the insulating material layer 31 close to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is smaller than the particle size of the carbon particles in the portion of the insulating material layer 31 far from the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 .
[0081] In this way, the size of the carbon particles in the part of the film layer of the insulating material layer 31 close to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is smaller, which makes the gaps between the carbon particles smaller, and can prevent light from escaping from the gaps between the carbon particles, further improving the light absorption effect of the light absorption layer 30.
[0082] Figure 4 Schematic diagram of another light emitting device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, the passivation layer 40 has a first via hole 41 exposing each single-color light emitting structure 50 .
[0083] like Figure 4 As shown, the light-emitting device also includes a metal trace 60 and a reflective layer 70. The reflective layer 70 is located in the first via hole 41. The reflective layer 70 has a second via hole 71 that passes through the reflective layer 70. The metal trace 60 is located on the surface of the passivation layer 40 away from the light-emitting substrate 10, and the metal trace 60 covers the reflective layer 70. The metal trace 60 is electrically connected to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 through the second via hole 71.
[0084] In the above implementation, a reflective layer 70 is provided on the side of the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 away from the light emitting substrate 10 , which can improve the reflectivity and allow more light to be emitted from the light emitting substrate 10 , thereby improving the brightness of the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 .
[0085] At the same time, the first via hole 41 is filled with a reflective layer 70 to avoid the presence of a large number of concave holes on the surface of the passivation layer 40, making the surface of the passivation layer 40 flatter, so that the metal wiring 60 formed on the passivation layer 40 will not have many bends or ups and downs, which will cause the risk of the metal wiring 60 breaking, thereby improving the reliability of the light-emitting device.
[0086] The reflective layer 70 is an insulating layer 90 , and thus a first via hole 41 is provided on the reflective layer 70 , so that the metal trace 60 can be electrically connected to the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 through the first via hole 41 .
[0087] Exemplarily, the reflective layer 70 may be a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) layer, wherein the DBR layer includes a plurality of periodically alternately stacked SiO2 layers and TiO2 layers, and the number of periods of the DBR layer may be between 20 and 50. For example, the number of periods of the DBR layer is 32.
[0088] The thickness of the SiO2 layer in the DBR layer may be 800 angstroms to 1200 angstroms, and the thickness of the TiO2 layer may be 500 angstroms to 900 angstroms.
[0089] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the light-emitting device also includes a metal connection layer 80, which is located in the first via hole 41 and is electrically connected to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50. The reflective layer 70 covers the metal connection layer 80, and the second via hole 71 exposes the metal connection layer 80. The metal trace 60 is connected to the metal connection layer 80 through the second via hole 71.
[0090] In the disclosed embodiment, the reflectivity of the metal connection layer 80 is greater than the reflectivity of the metal trace 60 .
[0091] In the above implementation, a metal connection layer 80 is disposed in the first via hole 41 , so that the metal trace 60 can be connected to the metal connection layer 80 after passing through the second via hole 71 , and electrically connected to the monochromatic light emitting structure 50 through the metal connection layer 80 .
[0092] Since the metal material of the metal wiring 60 is mostly Au, Ag and other materials with low reflectivity, when the area of the metal wiring 60 in contact with the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is too large, it is easy to absorb part of the light and reduce the brightness of the light. By setting a metal connection layer 80 with a high reflectivity between the metal wiring 60 and the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50, the metal connection layer 80 replaces the metal wiring 60 in contact with the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50, thereby preventing the metal wiring 60 from absorbing more light, thereby improving the brightness of the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50.
[0093] Exemplarily, the metal connection layer 80 is made of metals such as Al, Mg and Ca.
[0094] Alternatively, if Figure 4 As shown, the area of the orthographic projection of the metal connection layer 80 on the light output substrate 10 is larger than the area of the orthographic projection of the second via hole 71 on the light output substrate 10 .
[0095] Compared with the metal wiring 60 directly contacting the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 through the second via 71, the metal connection layer 80 is set to cover the entire surface in the first via 41, so as to ensure that the contact area between the metal connection layer 80 and the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 is large enough, thereby ensuring that the current can be evenly transmitted to the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50; at the same time, it can also prevent the problem of excessive current in local areas of the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 when the metal wiring 60 directly contacts the monochromatic light-emitting structure 50 through the second via 71.
[0096] Alternatively, if Figure 1 , 2 As shown, multiple monochromatic light-emitting structures 50 include a red light-emitting structure 51, a green light-emitting structure 52 and a blue light-emitting structure 53.
