[0085] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a display panel and a display device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0086] In the following, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described more fully with reference to the drawings. However, the disclosed embodiments may be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0087] The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the embodiments shown in the drawings, but include modifications of the configurations formed based on the manufacturing process. Therefore, the regions illustrated in the drawings have schematic properties, and the shapes of the regions shown in the drawings illustrate the specific shapes of the regions, but are not intended to be limiting.

[0088] Mobile phones, notebooks and other foldable display products have increasing demands for long life and low power consumption, which are difficult to meet with display products composed of a single OLED light-emitting element. Display products using a stacked structure (Tandem structure, i.e., multiple organic light-emitting functional layers are stacked) light-emitting elements can meet the requirements, but the process cost of the light-emitting devices in the display products will increase.

[0089] In the related art, in order to meet the requirements of long life and low power consumption of display products, a reflective cup structure is designed to improve the light extraction efficiency of the light emitting element. Figure 1 Taking the top-emitting OLED light-emitting element as an example, a flat layer 7 is added on one side of the substrate 1, and a cup-shaped opening 70 is provided in the flat layer 7. A pixel defining layer 6 is also provided on the side of the flat layer 7 facing away from the substrate 1. The pixel defining layer 6 has a fourth opening 60 at a position corresponding to the cup-shaped opening 70. The orthographic projection of the fourth opening 60 on the substrate 1 is located within the orthographic projection of the cup-shaped opening 70 on the substrate 1. An OLED light-emitting element 8 is disposed in the cup-shaped opening 70 and the fourth opening 60. The OLED light-emitting element 8 includes an anode 81, a light-emitting functional layer 82 and a cathode 83 which are sequentially stacked on the substrate 1. The anode 81 serves as a reflective electrode and can reflect the light emitted by the light-emitting element 8 toward the display side. Figure 1 It can be seen that the anode 81 covers the bottom and side walls of the cup-shaped opening 70. The anode 81 film covering the side walls of the cup-shaped opening 70 can reflect part of the light emitted by the light-emitting element 8 with a large viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±90°) to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element 8, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the light-emitting element 8.

[0090] However, in the structure where the light emitting element 8 is arranged in a single cup-shaped opening 70, a large portion of the wide-viewing angle light L emitted by the light emitting element 8 still cannot be utilized, so that the requirements for long life and low power consumption of display products cannot be well met.

[0091] In order to solve the problems in the related art, in a first aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display panel, referring to Figure 2a , Figure 2b and Figure 2c, wherein the display panel includes a substrate 1, a first film layer 2 located on one side of the substrate 1, and at least two cup-shaped structures 20 are formed in the first film layer 2 in a direction away from the substrate 1; along the direction away from the substrate 1, the radial dimensions of the at least two cup-shaped structures 20 gradually increase, and the radial dimension of each cup-shaped structure 20 gradually increases; along the direction away from the substrate 1, the positive projection of the cup-shaped structure 20 that is farther from the substrate 1 among any two adjacent cup-shaped structures 20 on the substrate 1 covers the positive projection of the cup-shaped structure 20 that is closer to the substrate 1 on the substrate 1; a reflective electrode 3 located on the side of the first film layer 2 away from the substrate 1, and its positive projection on the substrate 1 covers at least the bottom of the cup-shaped structure 20 with the smallest radial dimension and the cup sidewalls of all cup-shaped structures 20; a light-emitting functional layer 4 located on the side of the reflective electrode 3 away from the substrate 1 and in contact with the reflective electrode 3; a first electrode 5 located on the side of the light-emitting functional layer 4 away from the substrate 1 and in contact with the light-emitting functional layer 4, and the positive projection of the first electrode 5 on the substrate 1 covers at least the positive projection of the light-emitting functional layer 4 on the substrate 1.

[0092] Wherein, the light-emitting functional layer 4 can be a single-layer organic electroluminescent material layer, a stacked organic electroluminescent material layer, or a quantum dot light-emitting material layer. The reflective electrode 3, the light-emitting functional layer 4, and the first electrode 5 are stacked and in contact with each other in sequence to form an OLED light-emitting element with a single-layer structure or a stacked structure, or a quantum dot OLED light-emitting element.

[0093] In this embodiment, the reflective electrode 3 serves as the anode of the light-emitting element and needs to be patterned. The first electrode 5 serves as the cathode of the light-emitting element and can be patterned or entirely covered, that is, the cathode entirely covers the substrate 1. In this embodiment, the reflective electrode 3 is made of an opaque metal or metal alloy material, and the first electrode 5 is made of a conductive material that can transmit light or a conductive material that can partially transmit light. The light-emitting element in this embodiment is a top-emitting type.

[0094] In this embodiment, at least two cup-shaped structures 20 are formed in the first film layer 2 in a direction away from the substrate 1; in the direction away from the substrate 1, the radial dimensions of the at least two cup-shaped structures 20 gradually increase, and the radial dimension of each cup-shaped structure 20 gradually increases; in the direction away from the substrate 1, the positive projection of the cup-shaped structure 20 farther from the substrate 1 among any two adjacent cup-shaped structures 20 on the substrate 1 covers the positive projection of the cup-shaped structure 20 closer to the substrate 1 on the substrate 1; the light emitted by the light-emitting functional layer 4 under the electric field action of the reflective electrode 3 and the first electrode 5 can be reflected by the reflective electrode 3 to the light-emitting area within the set viewing angle range of the light-emitting element. Compared with the structure in the related art where the light-emitting element is disposed in a single cup-shaped opening, in this embodiment, the light-emitting element is located at the bottom of at least two cup-shaped structures 20. In the direction away from the substrate 1, the reflective electrode 3 covering the side wall of the cup-shaped structure 20 with a larger radial dimension can reflect the light with a larger viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±90°) emitted by the light-emitting element to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element, and further being beneficial to improving the lifespan of the display panel and reducing the power consumption of the display panel.

[0095] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2a and Figure 2b , the first film layer 2 includes a first sub-layer 21 and a second sub-layer 22, the first sub-layer 21 and the second sub-layer 22 are stacked in sequence in a direction away from the substrate 1, the cup-shaped structure 20 includes a first opening A formed in the first sub-layer 21 and a second opening B formed in the second sub-layer 22; the radial dimension of the second opening B is larger than the radial dimension of the first opening A; in the direction away from the substrate 1, the radial dimension of the first opening A gradually increases, and the radial dimension of the second opening B gradually increases; the positive projection of the second opening B on the substrate 1 covers the positive projection of the first opening A on the substrate 1.

[0096] Wherein, the cross-sectional shape of the first opening A perpendicular to the substrate 1 is an inverted trapezoid, and the cross-sectional shape of the second opening B perpendicular to the substrate 1 is an inverted trapezoid. The total thickness of the overlapping area of the positive projections of the reflective electrode 3, the light-emitting functional layer 4, and the first electrode 5 is less than the thickness of the first sub-layer 21. With such a setting, the light with a larger viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±90°) emitted by the light-emitting element formed by stacking the reflective electrode 3, the light-emitting functional layer 4, and the first electrode 5 can be reflected by the reflective electrode 3 covering the side walls of the first opening A and the second opening B to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0097] In some embodiments, the included angle α between the sidewall of the first opening A and the surface of the first sub-layer 21 close to the substrate 1 ranges from 20° to 60°. With such a setting, the reflective electrode 3 covering the sidewall of the first opening A can reflect light within a larger viewing angle (such as ±70° to ±90°) to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0098] In some embodiments, the included angle θ between the sidewall of the second opening B and the surface of the second sub-layer 22 close to the substrate 1 ranges from 30° to 60°. With such a setting, the reflective electrode 3 covering the sidewall of the second opening B can reflect light within a relatively large viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±70°) to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0099] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2a and Figure 2b , the first sub-layer 21 includes a first platform C. The surface of the first platform C facing away from the substrate 1 is located between the sidewalls of the second opening B and the first opening A, and the three are spliced in sequence; the reflective electrode 3 is located on the side of the second sub-layer 22 facing away from the substrate 1, and the orthographic projection of the reflective electrode 3 on the substrate 1 covers the orthographic projections of the first opening A, the first platform C, and the second opening B on the substrate 1.

[0100] Among them, the setting of the first platform C enables the reflective electrode 3 covering the surface of the first platform C facing away from the substrate 1 to further reflect the light reflected by the reflective electrode 3 covering the sidewall of the second opening B to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby further improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0101] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2c , in Figure 2a or Figure 2b , based on the display panel structure shown in

[0102] Among them, the cross-sectional shape of the third opening D perpendicular to the substrate 1 is an inverted trapezoid. Light with a large viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±90°) emitted by the light-emitting element composed of the reflective electrode 3, the light-emitting functional layer 4, and the first electrode 5 can be further reflected by the reflective electrode 3 covering the side walls of the first opening A, the second opening B, and the third opening D to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby further improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0103] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2c , the included angle β between the side wall of the third opening D and the surface of the third sub-layer 23 close to the substrate 1 ranges from 30° to 60°. With such a setting, the reflective electrode 3 covering the side wall of the third opening D can reflect light with a large viewing angle (such as ±60° to ±70°) to the light-emitting area within a smaller viewing angle range (such as 0° to ±60°) of the light-emitting element, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the light-emitting element.

[0104] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2c , the first sub-layer 21 includes a first platform C.
