[0130] Since the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 have the same light-emitting color, and the first driving circuit 300 is used to drive the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 to emit light respectively, in the case that the overall light-emitting brightness of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 is unchanged, compared with the stacked sub-pixels arranged in series, the current density of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 arranged in the stack in the present application is halved respectively, and the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 are driven to emit light in the double driving mode, which can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and can also improve the life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 by about 2 times, and is also beneficial to reduce the screen power consumption of the display panel 10. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 in the display panel 10 in the present application can be improved by about 2 times, and thus the light-emitting brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
[0131] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the first driving circuit 300. Figure 2
[0132] In this way, the first driving circuit 300 can drive the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 to emit light respectively, and under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 in the display panel 10 in the present application can be improved by about 2 times, and thus the light-emitting brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved. In addition, in the case that the overall light-emitting brightness of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 is unchanged, compared with the stacked sub-pixels arranged in series, the current density of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 arranged in the stack in the present application is halved respectively, and the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 are driven to emit light in the double driving mode, which can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and can also improve the life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 by about 2 times, and is also beneficial to reduce the screen power consumption of the display panel 10.
[0133] In some embodiments, the first sub-pixel 210 includes a first electrode 211, a first light-emitting layer 212, and a second electrode 213 stacked together; the second sub-pixel 220 includes a third electrode 221, a second light-emitting layer 222, and a fourth electrode 223 stacked together; the first driving circuit 300 includes a first power signal line 310 and a second power signal line 320 with different signals; the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the fourth electrode 223 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the first power signal line 310.
[0134] Optionally, the first power signal line 310 is a VSS signal line, and the second power signal line 320 is a VDD signal line.
[0135] Specifically, the first electrode 211 is the first anode, the second electrode 213 is the first cathode, the third electrode 221 is the second anode, and the fourth electrode 223 is the second cathode.
[0136] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a first hole injection layer 214 and a first hole transport layer 215 may also be disposed between the first electrode 211 and the first light-emitting layer 212, stacked in a direction away from the array substrate 100.
[0137] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a first hole blocking layer 216 and a first electron transport layer 217 may also be disposed between the first light-emitting layer 212 and the second electrode 213 in a direction away from the array substrate 100.
[0138] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a second hole injection layer 224 and a second hole transport layer 225 may also be stacked between the third electrode 221 and the second light-emitting layer 222 in a direction away from the array substrate 100.
[0139] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a second hole blocking layer 226 and a second electron transport layer 227 may also be disposed between the second light-emitting layer 222 and the fourth electrode 223 in a direction away from the array substrate 100.
[0140] In this way, the first electrode 211 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the third electrode 221 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the second power signal line 320, so that the overall luminous brightness of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 formed by the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 is unchanged, and compared with the stacked sub-pixel arranged in series, the display panel 10 in the present application can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and the service life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be increased by about 2 times, which is also beneficial to reduce the power consumption of the display panel 10. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the luminance of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the present application can be increased by about 2 times, and the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
[0141] In some embodiments, the first sub-pixel 210 includes the first electrode 211, the first light-emitting layer 212, and the second electrode 213 arranged in layers, the second sub-pixel 220 includes the third electrode 221, the second light-emitting layer 222, and the fourth electrode 223 arranged in layers, and the first driving circuit 300 includes the first power signal line 310 and the second power signal line 320 with different signals.
[0142] Optionally, the first power signal line 310 is a VSS signal line, and the second power signal line 320 is a VDD signal line.
[0143] Since the first electrode 211 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the third electrode 221 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the second power signal line 320, the first electrode 211 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the third electrode 221 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 can be respectively provided with a high-level voltage signal, and the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the fourth electrode 223 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 can be provided with a low-level voltage signal in combination with the first power signal line 310, so that the overall luminous brightness formed by the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be unchanged, and compared with the stacked sub-pixel arranged in series, the display panel 10 in the application can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and the service life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be increased by about 2 times, and the power consumption of the display panel 10 can also be reduced. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the luminance of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the application can be increased by about 2 times, and the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
[0144] In some embodiments, the first sub-pixel 210 includes the first electrode 211, the first light-emitting layer 212 and the second electrode 213 arranged in layers, the second sub-pixel 220 includes the third electrode 221, the second light-emitting layer 222 and the fourth electrode 223 arranged in layers, the first driving circuit 300 includes the first power signal line 310 and the second power signal line 320 with different signals, the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the fourth electrode 223 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the first power signal line 310, and the first electrode 211 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the third electrode 221 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are connected in parallel to the second power signal line 320.
[0145] In this way, the overall luminous brightness formed by the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be unchanged, and compared with the stacked sub-pixel arranged in series, the display panel 10 in the application can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and the service life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be increased by about 2 times, and the power consumption of the display panel 10 can also be reduced. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the luminance of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the application can be increased by about 2 times, and the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
[0146] In some embodiments, the second electrode 213, the third electrode 221 and the fourth electrode 223 each include a transparent conductive material.
[0147] The transparent conductive material can be indium tin oxide (ITO), a transparent conductive oxide (TCO), or aluminum zinc oxide (AZO), etc.
[0148] Since the second electrode 213, the third electrode 221, and the fourth electrode 223 are all arranged on the side of the first light-emitting layer 212 away from the array substrate 100, the second electrode 213, the third electrode 221, and the fourth electrode 223 are set as a transparent conductive material, which can improve the transmittance of the display panel 10 and improve the display effect of the display panel 10.
[0149] In some embodiments, the first sub-pixel 210 and the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 are optionally arranged apart from each other.
[0150] Specifically, a first insulating layer 410 is arranged between the first sub-pixel 210 and the corresponding second sub-pixel 220; the material of the first insulating layer 410 includes a light-transmitting material.
[0151] The material of the first insulating layer 410 can be the same as the material of the light extraction layer (CPL), such as triarylamine, cyclic urea, acyl structure, dibenzothiophene, dibenzofuran, or carbazole, etc.
[0152] In this way, the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 are spaced apart by the first insulating layer 410, which improves the reliability of the parallel arrangement of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220, and is also conducive to improving the transmittance of the display panel 10, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel 10.
[0153] In some embodiments, a light extraction layer 440 is arranged on the side of the second sub-pixel 220 away from the first sub-pixel 210; the material of the light extraction layer can be triarylamine, cyclic urea, acyl structure, dibenzothiophene, dibenzofuran, or carbazole, etc.
[0154] In some embodiments, the display panel 10 further includes an isolation structure 500 arranged on the array substrate 100, the isolation structure 500 is provided with a first isolation opening 5001, and the first light-emitting unit 200a is arranged in the first isolation opening 5001.

In addition, the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be provided with corresponding low-level voltage signals by the first isolation portion 510, and the cathode wiring is facilitated. In addition, the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be driven to emit light by the first driving circuit 300.
[0161] In some embodiments, the first sub-isolation portion 511 and the second sub-isolation portion 512 are connected in parallel to the first power signal line 310 (as shown in FIG. 13). Figure 4
[0162] In other embodiments, the first driving circuit 300 includes two first power signal lines 310, and the first sub-isolation portion 511 and the second sub-isolation portion 512 are respectively electrically connected to different first power signal lines 310 (as shown in FIG. 14). Figure 1 Figure 2
[0163] In this way, one of the second electrode 213 and the fourth electrode 223 is electrically connected to one of the first power signal lines 310 (VSS1) through the first sub-isolation portion 511, and the other of the second electrode 213 and the fourth electrode 223 is electrically connected to the other of the first power signal lines 310 (VSS2) through the second sub-isolation portion 512. In this way, the second electrode 213 and the fourth electrode 223 are respectively provided with corresponding low-level voltage signals through the two different first power signal lines 310, so that the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 are driven to emit light by the first driving circuit 300.
[0164] In some embodiments, the first sub-isolation portion 511 includes a first side wall surface 5111, and the second sub-isolation portion 512 includes a second side wall surface 5121 disposed opposite the first side wall surface 5111 in the first direction F1, the first direction F1 being parallel to the radial direction of the first isolation opening 5001.

[0165] In this way, one of the second electrode 213 and the fourth electrode 223 can be formed on the first side wall surface 5111 by evaporation at different evaporation angles, and the other one of the second electrode 213 and the fourth electrode 223 can be formed on the second side wall surface 5121 by evaporation at different evaporation angles, which are connected in parallel to the first power signal line 310 in combination with the first sub-isolation part 511 and the second sub-isolation part 512. In this way, the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 of the first light emitting unit 200a are facilitated to be manufactured, and the cathode wiring of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 of the first light emitting unit 200a is facilitated, and the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 of each first light emitting unit 200a can be arranged in parallel through the corresponding first isolation part 510, so as to improve the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10, and the cross voltage of the stacked light emitting device can be effectively reduced, and the service life of the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be improved by about 2 times, and the power consumption of the display panel 10 can be reduced.

[0190] Thus, the third electrode 221 of the second sub-pixel 220 can be wired downward through the second via connection structure 720 and the fourth via connection structure 740, so as to provide the third electrode 221 of the corresponding second sub-pixel 220 with a corresponding high-level voltage signal.

For example, the first driving circuit 300 further includes a third conductive wire 350 and a fourth conductive wire 360. The first sub-isolation part 511 is electrically connected with the third conductive wire 350 through a fifth via connection structure 750, and the second sub-isolation part 512 is electrically connected with the fourth conductive wire 360 through a sixth via connection structure 760 (that is, one end of the fifth via connection structure 750 is electrically connected with the first sub-isolation part 511, the other end of the fifth via connection structure 750 is electrically connected with the third conductive wire 350, one end of the sixth via connection structure 760 is electrically connected with the second sub-isolation part 512, and the other end of the sixth via connection structure 760 is electrically connected with the fourth conductive wire 360). The third conductive wire 350 and the fourth conductive wire 360 are connected in parallel to the same first power signal line 310.
[0193] In this way, the corresponding low-level voltage signals can be conveniently provided for the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the fourth electrode 223 of the second sub-pixel 220, and the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be conveniently driven to emit light, so that the luminance and display effect of the display panel 10 can be improved, and the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device can be effectively reduced.
[0194] In some other embodiments, the first sub-isolation part 511 and the second sub-isolation part 512 are electrically connected to different first power signal lines 310, respectively.
[0195] The first sub-isolation part 511 is electrically connected with the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210, and the second sub-isolation part 512 is electrically connected with the fourth electrode 223 of the second sub-pixel 220. For example, the first driving circuit 300 further includes a third conductive wire 350 and a fourth conductive wire 360. The first sub-isolation part 511 is electrically connected with the third conductive wire 350 through a fifth via connection structure 750, and the second sub-isolation part 512 is electrically connected with the fourth conductive wire 360 through a sixth via connection structure 760 (that is, one end of the fifth via connection structure 750 is electrically connected with the first sub-isolation part 511, the other end of the fifth via connection structure 750 is electrically connected with the third conductive wire 350, one end of the sixth via connection structure 760 is electrically connected with the second sub-isolation part 512, and the other end of the sixth via connection structure 760 is electrically connected with the fourth conductive wire 360). The third conductive wire 350 and the fourth conductive wire 360 are connected in parallel to the same first power signal line 310.
[0196] In this way, the corresponding low-level voltage signals can be conveniently provided for the second electrode 213 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the fourth electrode 223 of the second sub-pixel 220, and the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 can be conveniently driven to emit light, so that the luminance and display effect of the display panel 10 can be improved, and the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device can be effectively reduced.

[0201] In this way, whether the second power signal line 320 provides the corresponding high-level voltage signal (VDD) to the first electrode 211 of the first sub-pixel 210 and the third electrode 221 of the second sub-pixel 220 can be controlled through at least one transistor, and then the first sub-pixel 210 and the second sub-pixel 220 of the first light-emitting unit 200a can be made to emit light at the same time, thereby being conducive to improving the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10, and also effectively reducing the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device.
[0202] The working principles of the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, the seventh transistor M7 and the capacitor C can be understood with reference to the existing 7T1C circuit, and will not be described in detail here.

[0208] Optionally, the first isolation portion 510 corresponds to the first light-emitting unit 200a one by one.
[0209] In some embodiments, the display panel 10 further includes a second light-emitting unit 200b, and the second light-emitting unit 200b includes a third sub-pixel 230 and a fourth sub-pixel 240, and the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 are stacked on the array substrate 100 in a direction away from the array substrate 100. The array substrate 100 further includes a second driving circuit 301, and the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 are electrically connected to the second driving circuit 301, and the second driving circuit 301 is used to drive the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 to emit light, respectively.
[0210] Optionally, the third sub-pixel 230 and the corresponding fourth sub-pixel 240 have the same color of light emission.
[0211] Optionally, the third sub-pixel 230 and the corresponding fourth sub-pixel 240 are arranged apart from each other.

Thus, in the case that the overall light-emitting brightness of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 is unchanged, compared with the stacked sub-pixels arranged in series, the current density of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 arranged in the stack in the present application is halved, respectively, and the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 are driven to emit light in a double driving mode, which can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and can also improve the life of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 by about 2 times, and is also conducive to reducing the power consumption of the display panel 10. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the present application can be improved by about 2 times, and thus the light-emitting brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.

[0218] In the case that the overall luminous brightness formed by the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 is unchanged, compared with the stacked sub-pixels arranged in series, the current density of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 arranged in the application is halved, and the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 are driven in a double-drive manner to emit light, which can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and can also improve the service life of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 by about 2 times, and is also conducive to reducing the power consumption of the display panel 10. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the third sub-pixel 230 and the fourth sub-pixel 240 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the application can be improved by about 2 times, thereby effectively improving the luminous brightness and display effect of the display panel 10.
[0219] Optionally, the sixth electrode 233, the seventh electrode 241, and the eighth electrode 243 each comprise a transparent conductive material.
[0220] Since the sixth electrode 233, the seventh electrode 241, and the eighth electrode 243 are arranged on the side of the third light-emitting layer 232 away from the array substrate 100, the sixth electrode 233, the seventh electrode 241, and the eighth electrode 243 are arranged as transparent conductive materials, which can improve the transmittance of the display panel 10 and improve the display effect of the display panel 10.
[0221] Optionally, a second insulating layer 420 is arranged between the third sub-pixel 230 and the corresponding fourth sub-pixel 240, and the material of the second insulating layer 420 comprises a light-transmitting material.

In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 of the present application can be improved by about 2 times, thereby effectively improving the light emitting brightness and display effect of the display panel 10.

[0233] In the case that the overall light-emitting brightness of the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 is unchanged, compared with the stacked sub-pixel arranged in series, the current density of the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 arranged in a stack in the present application is halved respectively, and the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 are driven in a double-drive manner to emit light, which can effectively reduce the cross voltage of the stacked light-emitting device, and also can make the service life of the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 be improved by about 2 times, and is also beneficial to reduce the power consumption of the display panel 10. In other words, under the same driving voltage, compared with the single-layer sub-pixel, the brightness of the fifth sub-pixel 250 and the sixth sub-pixel 260 arranged in parallel in the display panel 10 in the present application can be improved by about 2 times, and thus the light-emitting brightness and display effect of the display panel 10 can be effectively improved.
