Therefore, this application is intended to cover modifications and variations of this application that fall within the scope of the corresponding claims (technical solutions claimed for protection) and their equivalents. It should be noted that the embodiments provided in the examples of this application may be combined with each other unless there is any inconsistency.
[0058] As mentioned in the background technology section, with the development of display technology and the expansion of application scenarios, how to achieve heat dissipation of power signal lines has become an urgent problem to be solved. Currently, various application fields of display panels such as mobile phones, wearables, and vehicles all have high brightness mode (HBM high brightness) requirements. For example, in high brightness mode, the brightness of the white screen is required to reach 2000nit or even 3000nit to ensure the display effect under outdoor sunlight. However, when the brightness of the display panel is too high, the current on the power signal line is very large. According to Joule's Law, the formula P=I 2 Rt, when the brightness of the display panel is too high, the Joule heat power on the power signal line will increase, and the thermal conductivity of the insulating material (such as silicon nitride and / or silicon oxide, etc.) in contact with the power signal line is low, resulting in the temperature of the power signal line, light-emitting devices and other parts rising, thereby reducing the performance and reliability of the display panel.
[0059] Based on the above technical problems, the inventors have discovered that in a display panel, a first metal layer is located on one side of a substrate; a first insulating layer is located on a side of the first metal layer away from the substrate; a first conductive layer is located on a side of the first insulating layer away from the substrate; a light-emitting device layer is located on a side of the first insulating layer away from the substrate, the first conductive layer including a first electrode of the light-emitting device; an encapsulation structure is located on a side of the light-emitting device layer away from the substrate; and a touch function layer is located on a side of the encapsulation structure away from the substrate; wherein at least one of the first metal layer and the first conductive layer includes a first power line, the first power line being electrically connected to one of the first electrode and the second electrode; and the at least one touch metal layer further includes at least one heat dissipation electrode, the heat dissipation electrode being electrically connected to the first power line via a through hole penetrating at least a portion of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode and the first power line. In a first aspect, the at least one touch metal layer is used as the at least one heat dissipation electrode, the heat dissipation electrode being electrically connected to the first power line via a through hole penetrating at least a portion of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode and the first power line. Heat in the first power line can be transferred to the heat dissipation electrode, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area of the first power line. Furthermore, the heat dissipation electrode has a high thermal conductivity, which can quickly reduce the heat and temperature in the first power line, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the display panel. Secondly, the heat dissipation electrode is made of the touch metal layer and is closer to the outside of the display panel, which can better dissipate heat and increase the heat dissipation speed. Thirdly, the heat dissipation electrode is only connected to the first power line and does not form a closed current loop with other electrodes or other structures. Therefore, the heat dissipation electrode will not adversely affect the electrical signal in the first power line.
[0060] The above is the core concept of this application. The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0064] The present application provides a display panel 100 , which includes a substrate 11 , a first metal layer 81 , a first insulating layer 82 , a first conductive layer 83 , a light-emitting device layer 256 , an encapsulation structure 30 , and a touch function layer 45T. The first metal layer 81 is located on one side of the substrate 11; the first insulating layer 82 is located on the side of the first metal layer 81 away from the substrate 11; the first conductive layer 83 is located on the side of the first insulating layer 82 away from the substrate 11; the light-emitting device layer 256 is located on the side of the first insulating layer 82 away from the substrate 11, and the light-emitting device layer 256 includes a plurality of spaced light-emitting devices 256f. In a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 11, the light-emitting device 256f includes a first electrode 211, a light-emitting material layer 25, and a second electrode 26 stacked in sequence in a direction away from the substrate 11, and the first conductive layer 83 includes a plurality of first electrodes 211; the packaging structure 30 is located on the side of the light-emitting device layer 256 away from the substrate 11; the touch function layer 45T is located on the side of the packaging structure 30 away from the substrate 11, and the touch function layer 45T includes at least one touch metal layer 50 and at least one touch insulating layer 40, and the at least one touch metal layer 50 includes a plurality of touch electrodes. Among them, at least one of the first metal layer 81 and the first conductive layer 83 includes a first power line D1, and the first power line D1 is electrically connected to one of the first electrode 211 and the second electrode 26; at least one touch metal layer 50 also includes at least one heat dissipation electrode S1, and the heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to the first power line D1 through a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least part of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1.
[0065] For example, in a direction away from the substrate 11, the display panel 100 includes a first metal layer 81, a first insulating layer 82, a first conductive layer 83, a light-emitting device layer 256, an encapsulation structure 30, and a touch function layer 45T. In the display area AA, the first metal layer 81 and the first conductive layer 83 are film layers within the encapsulation structure 30. The touch function layer 45T is a film layer outside the encapsulation structure 30.
[0066] For example, Figures 3 to 6As shown, although only one light emitting device 256f is illustrated, the light emitting device layer 256 includes a plurality of light emitting devices 256f that are spaced apart. The plurality of light emitting devices 256f that are spaced apart may be arranged in an array, which is not limited here.
[0067] For example, the light-emitting device 256f includes a first electrode 211, a light-emitting material layer 25, and a second electrode 26, which are sequentially stacked in a direction away from the substrate 11. One of the first electrode 211 and the second electrode 26 is an anode, and the other of the first electrode 211 and the second electrode 26 is a cathode. In the present embodiment, the first electrode 211 is used as the anode and the second electrode 26 is used as the cathode.
[0068] For example, at least one of the first metal layer 81 and the first conductive layer 83 includes a first power line D1. The first power line D1 can be a line that provides a cathode signal, such as a VSS signal line. The first power line D1 can be a VDD signal line, which is electrically connected to the source or drain of a drive transistor in a pixel drive circuit. The signal of the VDD signal line can be input to an anode. However, the first power line is not limited to being a VSS signal line or a VDD signal line.
[0069] For example, at least one touch metal layer 50 further includes at least one heat dissipation electrode S1. The heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to the first power line D1 via a through-hole Sk1 that penetrates at least a portion of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1. In some embodiments, in a display panel, one touch metal layer 50 includes the heat dissipation electrode S1. In some embodiments, in a display panel, two touch metal layers 50 each include a heat dissipation electrode S1.
[0070] It should be noted that the heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to the first power line D1 via a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least a portion of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1. In some embodiments, the heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to the first power line D1 via a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least one touch insulating layer 40. In some embodiments, the heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to the first power line D1 via a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least a portion of the film layer in the package structure 30.
[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, in the display panel 100, the first metal layer 81 is located on one side of the substrate 11; the first insulating layer 82 is located on the side of the first metal layer 81 away from the substrate 11; the first conductive layer 83 is located on the side of the first insulating layer 82 away from the substrate 11; the light-emitting device layer 256 is located on the side of the first insulating layer 82 away from the substrate 11, and the first conductive layer 83 includes the first electrode 211 of the light-emitting device 256f; the encapsulation structure 30 is located on the side of the light-emitting device layer 256 away from the substrate 11; and the touch function layer 45T is located on the side of the encapsulation structure 30 away from the substrate 11; wherein, at least one of the first metal layer 81 and the first conductive layer 83 includes a first power line D1, which is electrically connected to one of the first electrode 211 and the second electrode 26; and the at least one touch metal layer 50 further includes at least one heat dissipation electrode S1, which is electrically connected to the first power line D1 via a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least a portion of the film layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1. First, at least one touch metal layer 50 is used as at least one heat dissipation electrode S1. Heat dissipation electrode S1 is electrically connected to first power line D1 via a through hole Sk1 that penetrates at least a portion of the film layer between heat dissipation electrode S1 and first power line D1. Heat in first power line D1 can be transferred to heat dissipation electrode S1, increasing the heat dissipation area of first power line D1. Heat dissipation electrode S1 has high thermal conductivity, which can quickly reduce the heat and temperature in first power line D1, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the display panel. Second, heat dissipation electrode S1 is made of touch metal layer 50, and heat dissipation electrode S1 is closer to the outside of the display panel, which can better dissipate heat and increase the heat dissipation speed. Third, heat dissipation electrode S1 is only connected to first power line D1 and does not form a closed current loop with other electrodes or other structures. Therefore, heat dissipation electrode S1 will not adversely affect the electrical signals in first power line D1.
[0072] In some embodiments, at least a portion of at least one heat dissipation electrode S1 is exposed.
[0073] For example, at least part of at least one heat dissipation electrode S1 is exposed, that is, at least part of the heat dissipation electrode S1 connected to the first power line D1 is exposed. Exposed means that it is not covered and completely wrapped by the optical adhesive layer and / or the touch insulation layer 40. The heat dissipation electrode S1 can be in direct contact with the air, thereby greatly improving the heat dissipation efficiency and effect on the heat dissipation electrode S1, thereby better dissipating the heat of the first power line D1.
[0074] In some embodiments, as Figures 3 to 6As shown, the display panel 100 further includes an optical adhesive layer 61 and a protective cover plate 62. The optical adhesive layer 61 is located on the side of the touch function layer 45T away from the substrate 11; the protective cover plate 62 is located on a layer of the optical adhesive layer 61 away from the substrate 11. At least a portion of the orthographic projection of at least one heat dissipation electrode S1 on the plane of the substrate 11 is located outside the range of the orthographic projection of the optical adhesive layer 61 on the plane of the substrate 11 and is in direct contact with air.
[0075] For example, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the optical adhesive layer 61 can be, but is not limited to, OCA or OCR. The protective cover plate 62 (CG, cover glass) can be, but is not limited to, glass, polyimide, or ultra-thin glass (UTG). The protective cover plate 62 is attached to the side of the touch function layer 45T away from the substrate via the optical adhesive layer 61.
[0076] For example, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, at least a portion of the orthographic projection of at least one heat dissipation electrode S1 on the plane where the substrate 11 is located is outside the range of the orthographic projection of the optical adhesive layer 61 on the plane where the substrate 11 is located, and is in direct contact with the air; that is, at least a portion of the heat dissipation electrode S1 is not covered by the optical adhesive layer 61, for example Figure 5 The middle optical adhesive layer 61 includes a first notch Sk4 at a position corresponding to the heat dissipation electrode S1 , thereby facilitating at least partial exposure of the heat dissipation electrode S1 , thereby improving the heat dissipation rate of the heat dissipation electrode S1 .
[0077] In some embodiments, as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 11, the touch function layer 45T includes a first touch conductive layer 51, a first touch insulating layer 41, a second touch conductive layer 52, and a second touch insulating layer 42 stacked in sequence in a direction away from the substrate 11; at least one of the first touch conductive layer 51 and the second touch conductive layer 52 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1.
[0078] For example, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 11, the touch function layer 45T includes a third touch insulating layer 43, a first touch conductive layer 51, a first touch insulating layer 41, a second touch conductive layer 52, and a second touch insulating layer 42, which are sequentially stacked in a direction away from the substrate 11. The film structure of the touch function layer 45T is not limited thereto.
[0079] For example, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, one of the first touch conductive layer 51 and the second touch conductive layer 52 may include multiple touch electrodes, and one of the first touch conductive layer 51 and the second touch conductive layer 52 may include multiple bridging electrodes, which may connect two adjacent touch electrodes with the same signal. Figures 3 to 6It is shown that the second touch conductive layer 52 includes a plurality of touch electrodes 521 , and the first touch conductive layer 51 includes a plurality of bridging electrodes 511 .
[0080] For example, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the first touch conductive layer 51 and / or the second touch conductive layer 52 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1 .
[0081] In some embodiments, as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the touch insulating layer 40 located on a side of the heat dissipation electrode S1 away from the substrate 11 includes a heat dissipation opening Sk2 , and the heat dissipation opening Sk2 exposes the heat dissipation electrode S1 .
[0082] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the first touch conductive layer 51 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1, a heat dissipation opening Sk2 penetrates the first touch insulation layer 41 and the second touch insulation layer 42, and a first gap Sk3 is formed between the optical adhesive layer 61 and the second touch insulation layer 42. The heat dissipation electrode S1 is exposed through the heat dissipation opening Sk2 and the first gap Sk3 and can be in contact with the air.
[0083] For example, compared to Figure 3 Example, Figure 4 It is illustrated that the first electrode layer 21 includes a first power line D1 .
[0084] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the second touch conductive layer 52 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1, a heat dissipation opening Sk2 penetrates the second touch insulating layer 42, and the optical adhesive layer 61 includes a first notch Sk4 corresponding to the heat dissipation electrode S1. The heat dissipation electrode S1 is exposed through the heat dissipation opening Sk2 and the first notch Sk4 and can be in contact with the air.
[0085] For example, in some embodiments, the heat dissipation electrode S1 may be exposed through the heat dissipation opening Sk2 and the first notch Sk4 and may be in contact with air. The heat dissipation opening Sk2 passes through the first touch insulation layer 41 and the second touch insulation layer 42 .
[0086] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the display panel 100 includes a display area AA and a non-display area BB surrounding at least part of the display area AA, and the through hole Sk1 is located in the non-display area BB; in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 11 is located, the encapsulation structure 30 includes a first inorganic encapsulation structure 31, a first organic encapsulation structure 32 and a second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 stacked in sequence in a direction away from the substrate 11; wherein, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the display area AA and the through hole Sk1, and the through hole Sk1 passes through the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33.
[0087] For example, the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 are made of inorganic materials, such as silicon nitride and / or silicon oxide.
[0088] For example, the material of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is an organic material, such as polyimide or resin.
[0089] For example, Figure 1 、 Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 is a first edge 30 b .
[0090] For example, Figure 1 、 Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the display area AA, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the edge of the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 and the display area AA, and the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the display area AA and the through hole Sk1. The through hole Sk1 penetrates the first and second inorganic encapsulation structures 31 and 33. The first organic encapsulation structure 32 is relatively thick, so the through hole Sk1 does not need to penetrate the first organic encapsulation structure 32. This allows for better fabrication of the through hole Sk1 and avoids the through hole Sk1 not being able to penetrate the first organic encapsulation structure 32.
[0091] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 、 Figure 6 As shown, the display panel 100 includes a display area AA and a non-display area BB surrounding at least a portion of the display area AA, and the through hole Sk1 is located in the non-display area BB; in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 11 is located, the encapsulation structure 30 includes a first inorganic encapsulation structure 31, a first organic encapsulation structure 32, and a second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 that are stacked in sequence in a direction away from the substrate 11; wherein, in the non-display area BB on the same side of the display area AA, the through hole Sk1 is located on the side of the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32, and the edge of the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 away from the display area AA.
[0092] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 is a first edge 30 b .
[0093] For example, Figure 2 、 Figure 6As shown, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31 and the display area AA, and the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32 is located between the edge of the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 and the display area AA. The through hole Sk1 is located on the side of the edge of the first inorganic encapsulation structure 31, the edge of the first organic encapsulation structure 32, and the edge of the second inorganic encapsulation structure 33 away from the display area AA, and the through hole Sk1 does not penetrate the first and second inorganic encapsulation structures 31, 33. In this case, the through hole Sk1 can be prevented from damaging the first and second inorganic encapsulation structures 31, 33, thereby preventing damage to the encapsulation performance of the encapsulation structure 30.
[0094] In some embodiments, the through hole Sk1 passes through the insulating layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1. The insulating layer between the heat dissipation electrode S1 and the first power line D1 includes the first insulating layer 82, at least part of the film layer of the packaging structure 30 and at least one touch insulating layer 40.
[0095] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the first touch conductive layer 51 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1 , and a through hole Sk1 penetrates the third touch insulating layer 43 , the first inorganic packaging structure 31 and the second inorganic packaging structure 33 .
[0096] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the second touch conductive layer 52 includes a heat dissipation electrode S1 , and a through hole Sk1 penetrates the first touch insulating layer 41 , the third touch insulating layer 43 , the first inorganic packaging structure 31 and the second inorganic packaging structure 33 .
