[0107] To illustrate the technical solutions described in this application, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.
[0108] Please see Figure 1 As shown, in the display panel, adjacent sub-pixels 00A are physically separated by a partition structure 00B. The light emitted by sub-pixels 00A diverges outward at a certain angle. However, due to the height of the partition structure 00B, the outward emission of light at large angles is somewhat restricted, resulting in a limited viewing angle for the display panel. Consequently, the brightness of sub-pixels 00A decreases significantly with increasing viewing angle, leading to the problem of color shift at large viewing angles.
[0109] Please see Figures 2 to 4 As shown, this application embodiment first provides a display panel 100 to solve the above-mentioned problem of large viewing angle distortion.
[0110] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the display panel 100 includes a substrate 3, an isolation structure 9, multiple light-emitting devices 4, and a scattering layer 7. The isolation structure 9 is disposed on one side of the substrate 3, is mesh-like, and defines multiple isolation openings 90. The light-emitting devices 4 are disposed within the isolation openings 90. The scattering layer 7 includes multiple scattering structures 70, which are disposed within the isolation openings 90 and located on the side of the light-emitting devices 4 facing away from the substrate 3. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the scattering structure 70 includes a base layer 71 and scattering particles 72 doped within the base layer 71.
[0111] Here, the light-emitting device 4 is a top-emitting device, and the scattering structure 70 is located on the light-emitting side of the light-emitting device 4.
[0112] The scattering particles 72 within the scattering structure 70 can scatter light entering the substrate 71 from multiple angles, increasing the large-angle light emission rate of the light-emitting device 4, improving the light extraction rate and viewing angle of the display panel 100, and avoiding the problem of wide viewing angle distortion. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 4 As shown.
[0113] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the substrate 3 includes a driving circuit layer 31 and a pixel definition layer 32 disposed on one side of the driving circuit layer 31. The pixel definition layer 32 is provided with pixel openings 320 at intervals. An isolation structure 9 is disposed on the side of the pixel definition layer 32 away from the driving circuit layer 31. The isolation opening 90 is connected to the pixel opening 320.
[0114] like Figure 3 As shown, the light-emitting device 4 includes a first electrode 41, a light-emitting functional layer 42, and a second electrode 43 stacked sequentially. The first electrode 41 is disposed on one side of the driving circuit layer 31, and a portion of the pixel definition layer 32 is disposed on the side of the first electrode 41 away from the driving circuit layer 31. A portion of the first electrode 41 is exposed within the pixel opening 320. The light-emitting functional layer 42 is disposed on the side of the first electrode 41 and the pixel definition layer 32 away from the driving circuit layer 31.
[0115] The first electrode 41 can be an anode, and the second electrode 43 can be a cathode.
[0116] The light-emitting device 4 includes multiple light-emitting devices of different colors, namely a first light-emitting device, a second light-emitting device, and a third light-emitting device, for example, Figure 2 As shown, multiple light-emitting devices of different colors include a red light-emitting device 4R, a green light-emitting device 4G, and a blue light-emitting device 4B. A pixel group is formed by at least one red light-emitting device 4R, at least one green light-emitting device 4G, and at least one blue light-emitting device 4B. The arrangement of the red light-emitting device 4R, green light-emitting device 4G, and blue light-emitting device 4B within the pixel group is not limited; for example, they can be arranged sequentially in one direction or in two directions.
[0117] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the isolation structure 9 includes an isolation portion 91 disposed on one side of the substrate 3 and a blocking portion 92 disposed on the side of the isolation portion 91 away from the substrate 3. The orthographic projection of the isolation portion 91 on the substrate 3 is completely within the orthographic projection of the blocking portion 92 on the substrate 3. That is, the edge of the blocking portion 92 is more prominent than the isolation portion 91.
[0118] The composition and preparation of the isolation structure 9 are detailed in patents CN118251982A, 202410864269.8, PCT / CN2024 / 098407, PCT / CN2024 / 102783, PCT / CN2024 / 098217, PCT / CN2024 / 099419, PCT / CN2024 / 099072, and CN1179797. Further descriptions can be found in CN117998900A, CN117062489A, CN117580403A, CN116583155A, CN116669477A, CN117396039A, CN116669480A, CN116600606A, and CN117500332A, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0119] Since the edge of the blocking portion 92 is more prominent than the isolation portion 91, the edge of the blocking portion 92, on the side facing the substrate 3, forms a blockage on the edge of the light-emitting device 4, which further reduces the light extraction rate and viewing angle of the light-emitting device 4.
[0120] In this embodiment, the edge of the scattering structure 70 is connected to the edge of the isolation part 91. In this way, the scattering particles 72 can scatter the light from the edge of the light-emitting device 4 at multiple angles, thereby changing the direction of the light and preventing it from being blocked by the edge of the blocking part 92.
[0121] The substrate 71 has high light transmittance to avoid affecting the light emission of the light-emitting device 4. In an optional embodiment, the light transmittance of the substrate 71 is greater than or equal to 90%.
[0122] Optionally, the light transmittance of the base layer 71 is greater than or equal to 95%.
[0123] Alternatively, the light transmittance of the base layer 71 is greater than or equal to 97%.
[0124] In some specific embodiments, the light transmittance of the base layer 71 can be 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 97%, 98%, 99%, etc.
[0125] Please see Figure 3As shown, in the orthogonal projection direction of the substrate 3, the scattering structure 70 has a light-emitting surface facing away from the substrate 3, and the distance H between the light-emitting surface of the scattering structure 70 and the side surface of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3 is greater than or equal to 0. That is, in the orthogonal projection direction of the substrate 3, the light-emitting surface of the scattering structure 70 will not be higher than the side surface of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3, and the scattering structure 70 is always kept on the side of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3. The purpose of this arrangement is, on the one hand, to facilitate the fabrication of the scattering structure 70 and avoid interference from the blocking portion 92 in the fabrication of the scattering structure 70, and on the other hand, to avoid light crosstalk between adjacent light-emitting devices 4 of different colors while maintaining a large viewing angle.
[0126] In one alternative embodiment, the distance H between the light-emitting surface of the scattering structure 70 and the side surface of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3 is greater than 0. This further facilitates the fabrication of the scattering structure 70.
[0127] The base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 can be a transparent organic material layer.
[0128] The refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is 1.4 to 1.8.
[0129] Optionally, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is 1.5 to 1.7.
[0130] Specifically, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 or 1.8.
[0131] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the display panel 100 further includes a light extraction layer 5, which includes multiple light extraction structures 50 located between the corresponding second electrode 43 and the corresponding scattering structure 70. The refractive index of the light extraction layer 5 is greater than that of the second electrode 43 and also greater than that of each film layer in the light-emitting functional layer 42. The light extraction layer 5 is used to refract and extract the light emitted from the light-emitting functional layer 42 as completely as possible, avoiding internal reflection of the light between the light-emitting functional layer 42 and the cathode.
[0132] Based on the light extraction structure 50, the scattering structure 70 further scatters the extracted light at a large angle. In this way, the display panel 100 as a whole has a high light extraction rate and a wide viewing angle.
[0133] Optionally, the refractive index of the light extraction layer 5 is greater than or equal to 1.8.
[0134] Optionally, the refractive index of the light extraction layer 5 is greater than or equal to 1.9.
[0135] Optionally, the refractive index of the light extraction layer 5 is greater than or equal to 2.0.
[0136] In one alternative embodiment, the refractive index of the light extraction layer 5 is 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, etc.
[0137] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the display panel 100 also includes an encapsulation structure layer 8, which includes a first encapsulation layer 81. The first encapsulation layer 81 is disposed on the side of the scattering layer 7 and the adjacent isolation structure 9 away from the substrate 3, so as to encapsulate the corresponding scattering structure 70, light extraction structure 50 and light-emitting device 4 inside, and prevent moisture from entering the light-emitting device 4.
[0138] The first encapsulation layer 81 can be an inorganic material encapsulation layer, which has a good water vapor barrier effect.
[0139] Optionally, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is 1.7 to 2.0.
[0140] Optionally, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is 1.7 to 1.9.
[0141] In some embodiments, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, or 2.0.
[0142] Since the scattering structure 70 is located on the side of the first encapsulation layer 81 close to the substrate 3, optionally, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is less than or equal to the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81.
[0143] Optionally, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is lower than that of the first encapsulation layer 81. Light entering the light extraction structure 50 undergoes multi-angle scattering under the action of the scattering particles 72. When the light further enters the first encapsulation layer 81 from the light extraction structure 50, it is refracted again. The angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence, allowing large-angle light to be refracted without being blocked by the isolation structures 9 on both sides. This further ensures the light extraction effect. In other words, the first encapsulation layer 81 is a high-refractive-index layer relative to the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70, thus facilitating the extraction and emission of light from the scattering structure 70 to the first encapsulation layer 81.
[0144] In one embodiment, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 may be greater than or equal to 1.4 and less than 1.8. Thus, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is less than the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81.
[0145] In one embodiment, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is greater than 1.8 and less than or equal to 2.0. Therefore, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is greater than the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70.
[0146] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the encapsulation structure layer 8 further includes a second encapsulation layer 82 and a third encapsulation layer 83. The second encapsulation layer 82 may include an organic material encapsulation layer, and the third encapsulation layer 83 may include an inorganic material encapsulation layer. The material of the third encapsulation layer 83 can be the same as the material of the first encapsulation layer 81. In this way, while providing good moisture barrier effect, the display panel 100 is also given a certain degree of flexibility, making it suitable for flexible display panels.
[0147] In the scattering structure 70, the scattering particles 72 include one or more of titanium dioxide particles, zirconium dioxide particles, silicon dioxide particles, silicon oxide particles, and titanium oxide particles.
[0148] Optionally, in the scattering structure 70, the doping mass percentage of the scattering particles 72 is 10% to 60%.
[0149] Further optionally, in the scattering structure 70, the doping mass percentage of the scattering particles 72 is 20% to 50%;
[0150] Further optionally, in the scattering structure 70, the doping mass percentage of the scattering particles 72 is 30% to 50%.
[0151] In one specific embodiment, the doping mass percentage of the scattering particles 72 in the scattering structure 70 is 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or 60%.
[0152] For light-emitting devices 4 of different colors, the diameter of the scattering particles 72 in their scattering structure 70 is different, so as to ensure that the scattering particles 72 can effectively scatter light of the corresponding wavelength band.
[0153] Please see Figure 5 As shown, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the red light-emitting device 4R, the size D1 of the scattering particles 72 is 160 nm to 180 nm.
[0154] Optionally, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the red light-emitting device 4R, the size D1 of the scattering particles 72 is 170 nm to 180 nm.
[0155] Please see Figure 6 As shown, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the green light-emitting device 4G, the size D2 of the scattering particles 72 is 130 nm to 150 nm.
[0156] Optionally, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the green light-emitting device 4G, the size D2 of the scattering particles 72 is 140 nm to 150 nm.
[0157] Please see Figure 7 As shown, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the blue light-emitting device 4B, the size D3 of the scattering particles 72 is 110 nm to 130 nm.
[0158] Optionally, in the scattering structure 70 corresponding to the blue light-emitting device 4B, the size D3 of the scattering particles 72 is 120 nm to 130 nm.
[0159] Please see Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the display panel 100 further includes a lens layer 6 disposed on the side of the scattering layer 7 facing the substrate 3. The lens layer 6 includes a plurality of microlenses 61. Specifically, the microlenses 61 are disposed between the corresponding scattering structure 70 and the corresponding light extraction structure 50. The microlenses 61 have an arcuate convex surface 60 protruding toward the scattering structure 70, and the scattering structure 70 is disposed on the arcuate convex surface 60.
[0160] Please see Figure 10 As shown, the microlens 61 has an arcuate convex surface 60 protruding toward the scattering structure 70. When light is incident on the scattering structure 70 through the arcuate convex surface 60, the outgoing light is deflected toward the isolation structures 9 on both sides, thereby increasing the large-angle light and improving the large viewing angle brightness of each light-emitting device 4.
[0161] In one embodiment, the microlens 61 is made of a material with a refractive index of 1.5 to 1.9.
[0162] In one embodiment, the microlens 61 is made of a material with a refractive index of 1.5 to 1.8.
[0163] In one embodiment, the microlens 61 is made of a material with a refractive index of 1.5 to 1.7.
[0164] Specifically, the refractive index of the material of the microlens 61 is 1.5, 1.6, 1.65, 1.7, 1.75, 1.8, 1.85, or 1.9.
[0165] like Figure 9 As shown, the thickness of the scattering structure 70 gradually decreases in the direction away from the isolation structure 9.
[0166] The scattering structure 70 can be fabricated using a self-leveling method, such as inkjet printing, to ensure that the surface of the scattering structure 70 away from the substrate 3 is planar. This design aims to reduce step differences and facilitate the fabrication of other film layers on the side of the scattering structure 70 away from the substrate 3. Furthermore, the microlens 61 has an arcuate convex surface 60 protruding towards the scattering structure 70. Under the action of this arcuate convex surface 60, the self-leveling material can automatically fill the areas on both sides of the isolation structure 9, and the scattering structure 70 has a greater height in the area near the isolation structure 9, ensuring effective light scattering.
[0167] Please see Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the distance H' between the arcuate surface 60 of the microlens 61 and the side surface of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3 is greater than or equal to 0, so as to ensure that the scattering structure material can fill both sides of the isolation structure 9 and the side of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3.
[0168] In one embodiment, the material of the base layer 71 includes organic materials.
[0169] Optionally, the base layer 71 may be made of resin material.
[0170] In one embodiment, the refractive index of the material of the microlens 61 is less than the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81. In other words, the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 is greater than the refractive index of the material of the microlens 61. The first encapsulation layer 81 is a high-refractive-index layer relative to the microlens 61, which is beneficial for the extraction of light from the microlens 61 to the first encapsulation layer 81.
[0171] The refractive index of the material of microlens 61 is not significantly different from that of the substrate 71 of scattering structure 70, not exceeding 0.2. Optionally, the difference between the refractive index of microlens 61 and the refractive index of substrate 71 of scattering structure 70 is less than or equal to 0.1. The purpose of this arrangement is to reduce light reflection between microlens 61 and scattering structure 70, ensuring the efficiency of light emission from microlens 61, and thus ensuring the overall brightness of display panel 100.
[0172] In one embodiment, the microlens 61 is an inorganic insulating material lens. Specifically, the material of the microlens 61 is silicon oxide, silicon nitride, or a mixture of silicon oxide and silicon nitride.
[0173] In one embodiment, the microlens 61 is a photoresist material lens, which is made of photoresist and has a refractive index of 1.5 to 1.7. Specifically, the liquid photoresist material undergoes a liquid-to-solid transformation under ultraviolet irradiation, forming the aforementioned arcuate surface 60 due to volume shrinkage and surface tension.
[0174] Please see Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the scattering structure 70 is replaced by being disposed on the side of the first encapsulation layer 81 facing away from the substrate 3. The height difference H between the surface of the scattering structure 70 facing away from the substrate 3 and the surface of the blocking portion 92 facing the substrate 3 is still greater than or equal to 0.
[0175] In this embodiment, the scattering structure 70 is located on the side of the first encapsulation layer 81 away from the substrate 3. Optionally, the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is greater than or equal to the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81.
[0176] Alternatively, the material of the first encapsulation layer 81 may be selected based on the primary criterion of achieving water and oxygen barrier effects. In some embodiments, the refractive index of the scattering structure 70 may be less than that of the first encapsulation layer 81. Optionally, the difference in refractive index between the two should be as small as possible to avoid excessive reflection of light from the first encapsulation layer 81 to the scattering structure 70. Optionally, the difference between the refractive index of the scattering structure 70 and the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 may be less than or equal to 0.2. More preferably, the difference between the refractive index of the scattering structure 70 and the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81 may be less than or equal to 0.1.
[0177] Please see Figure 12 As shown, in this embodiment, the microlens 61 is formed by a first encapsulation layer 81. Alternatively, in this embodiment, the first encapsulation layer 81 is configured to have an arcuate convex surface 60 protruding toward the scattering structure 70.
[0178] In this embodiment, the microlens 61 is formed simultaneously by the first encapsulation layer 81, which can reduce one manufacturing step, thus saving process steps and reducing the overall thickness of the display panel 100.
[0179] In this embodiment, optionally, the refractive index of the microlens 61 material, i.e., the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81, is not significantly different from the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70, and does not exceed 0.2. Alternatively, the difference between the refractive index of the microlens 61 material, i.e., the refractive index of the first encapsulation layer 81, and the refractive index of the base layer 71 of the scattering structure 70 is less than or equal to 0.1.
[0180] The refractive index of the material of the first encapsulation layer 81 is less than or equal to 1.8, so as to minimize the difference in refractive index between the first encapsulation layer 81 and the scattering structure 70 and reduce the reflection of light between the first encapsulation layer 81 and the scattering structure 70.
