[0115] Technical solutions in some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings below. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some but not all embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0116] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the description and the claims, the term "comprise" and other forms thereof such as the third-person singular form "comprises" and the present participle form "comprising" are construed as open and inclusive, i.e., "including, but not limited to". In the description of the specification, the terms such as "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "exemplary embodiments", "example", "specific example" or "some examples" are intended to indicate that specific features, structures, materials or characteristics related to the embodiment(s) or example(s) are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. Schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment(s) or example(s). In addition, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described herein may be included in any one or more embodiments or examples in any suitable manner.
[0117] Hereinafter, the terms such as "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and are not to be construed as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term "a plurality of' or "the plurality of' means two or more unless otherwise specified.
[0118] The phrase "at least one of A, B and C" has a same meaning as the phrase "at least one of A, B or C", and they both include the following combinations of A, B and C: only A, only B, only C, a combination of A and B, a combination of A and C, a combination of B and C, and a combination of A, B and C.
[0119] The phrase "A and / or B" includes the following three combinations: only A, only B, and a combination of A and B.
[0120] The term "about", "substantially" or "approximately" as used herein includes a stated value and an average value within an acceptable range of deviation of a particular value. The acceptable range of deviation is determined by a person of ordinary skill in the art in consideration of the measurement in question and errors associated with the measurement of a particular quantity (i.e., limitations of the measurement system).
[0121] The term such as "parallel", "perpendicular" or "equal" as used herein includes a stated condition and a condition similar to the stated condition. A range of the similar condition is within an acceptable range of deviation. The acceptable range of deviation is determined by a person of ordinary skill in the art in view of measurement in question and errors associated with the measurement of a particular quantity (i.e., limitations of the measurement system). For example, the term "parallel" includes absolute parallelism and approximate parallelism, and an acceptable range of deviation of the approximate parallelism may be a deviation within 5°; the term "perpendicular" includes absolute perpendicularity and approximate perpendicularity, and an acceptable range of deviation of the approximate perpendicularity may also be a deviation within 5°; and the term "equal" includes absolute equality and approximate equality, and an acceptable range of deviation of the approximate equality may be a difference between two equals being less than or equal to 5% of either of the two equals.
[0122] It will be understood that when a layer or element is referred to as being on another layer or substrate, the layer or element may be directly on the another layer or substrate, or there may be intermediate layer(s) between the layer or element and the another layer or substrate.
[0123] Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to sectional views and / or plane views as idealized exemplary drawings. In the accompanying drawings, thicknesses of layers and sizes of areas / regions are enlarged for clarity. Variations in shapes relative to the accompanying drawings due to, for example, manufacturing technologies and / or tolerances may be envisaged. Therefore, the exemplary embodiments should not be construed to be limited to the shapes of areas / regions shown herein, but to include deviations in the shapes due to, for example, manufacturing. For example, an etched area / region shown in a rectangular shape generally has a feature of being curved. Therefore, the areas / regions shown in the accompanying drawings are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to show actual shapes of the areas / regions in an apparatus, and are not intended to limit the scope of the exemplary embodiments.
[0124] As mentioned in the background, based on a quantum confinement effect, quantum dots (QD) have broadband absorption, narrowband emission, continuously adjustable peak position and other excellent luminescence properties. Moreover, quantum dots have solution processability, and thus use of expensive vacuum equipment is avoided, so that the quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with quantum dots as light-emitting materials are widely used in display and lighting, solar cells, photoelectric detection, and other fields. Patterning is a process of pixelating quantum dots that are in a solution state, and is an only way to transform quantum dots into formed optoelectronic devices and even into commercial products. Using a traditional photoresist indirect method may achieve quantum dots patterning. However, due to incompatibility between a quantum dot solvent and a photoresist solvent, and reduction in luminescent properties of quantum dots themselves generally caused by introduction of photoresist, it is difficult to achieve quantum dots patterning using the traditional photoresist technology. The preparation technologies of light-emitting layers of quantum dot light-emitting diodes mainly include inkjet printing technology, photolithography technology, transfer technology, and the like, and the photolithography technology is a promising method for forming high-resolution quantum dot light-emitting diodes.
[0125] The light-responsive surface ligands give quantum dots a function of being directly patterned by photolithography. The main principle is to change colloidal stability of quantum dots before and after a photochemical reaction using photochemical reactions such as decomposition or cross-linking of photosensitive groups to achieve a purpose of selective patterning through development.
[0126] The photolithography technology is a technology of achieving quantum dots patterning by means of exposure and development.
[0127] As shown in FIG. 1, a process for forming a light-emitting pattern 23 of a light-emitting substrate 1 is exemplarily introduced. Referring to the last sub-figure in FIG. 1 (i.e., a sub-figure corresponding to step S8), the light-emitting substrate 1 includes a substrate 11, and a pixel defining layer 12 and a plurality of light-emitting devices that are disposed on the substrate 11. Each light-emitting device includes a light-emitting pattern 23. The pixel defining layer 12 has a plurality of openings Q, and the plurality of light-emitting devices and the plurality of openings Q may be disposed in one-to-one correspondence.
[0128] For example, the plurality of light-emitting devices include a red light-emitting device R, a green light-emitting device G and a blue light-emitting device B. The following describes a process of sequentially forming a light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R, a light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G and a light-emitting pattern B1 of the blue light-emitting device B.
[0129] As shown in FIG. 1, the process includes steps S1 to S8.
[0130] In order to improve an efficiency of injecting electrons and holes into the light-emitting pattern 23, a front film layer 13 is further provided between the substrate 11 and the light-emitting pattern 23. The front film layer 13 is, for example, one or two of an electron injection layer, an electron transport layer, a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer.
[0131] In S1, a red quantum dot (RQD) light-emitting material is formed by coating on a side of the front film layer 13 away from the substrate 11 to form a red initial light-emitting pattern R10, and the red initial light-emitting pattern R10 is exposed, where a region for the red light-emitting device R to be formed is an exposed region.
[0132] In S2, the red initial light-emitting pattern R10 is developed, where a portion of the red initial light-emitting pattern R10 in the exposed region is retained to form the light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R.
[0133] In S3, a green quantum dot (GQD) light-emitting material is formed by coating on a side of the light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R and the front film layer 13 away from the substrate 11 to form a green initial light-emitting pattern G10,
[0134] In S4, the green initial light-emitting pattern G10 is exposed, where a region for the green light-emitting device G to be formed is an exposed region.
[0135] In S5, the green initial light-emitting pattern G10 is developed, where a portion of the green initial light-emitting pattern G10 in the exposed region is retained to form the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G.
[0136] In S6, a blue quantum dot (BQD) light-emitting material is formed by coating on a side of the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G, the light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R and the front film layer 13 away from the substrate 11a blue initial light-emitting pattern B10.
[0137] In S7, the blue initial light-emitting pattern B10 is exposed, where a region for the blue light-emitting device B to be formed is an exposed region.
[0138] In S8, the blue initial light-emitting pattern B10 is developed, where a portion of the blue initial light-emitting pattern B10 in the exposed region is retained to form the light-emitting pattern B1 of the blue light-emitting device B.
[0139] However, in an actual process of forming the light-emitting pattern 23 of the light-emitting substrate 1, as shown in FIG. 2, since a certain interaction exists between a quantum dot light-emitting material and a material of an adjacent film layer, and the interaction includes, but is not limited to, van der Waals force, electrostatic force, gravity and capillary force, the patterning method has a problem of incomplete elution of the quantum dot light-emitting material of the former color (e.g., the red quantum dot light-emitting material), and thus there is a residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material of the former color (e.g., the red quantum dot light-emitting material) on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the latter color (e.g., the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G) proximate to the substrate 11. Moreover, the patterning method further has a problem of incomplete elution of the quantum dot light-emitting material of the latter color (e.g., the blue quantum dot light-emitting material), and thus there is a residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material of the latter color (e.g., the blue quantum dot light-emitting material) on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the former color (e.g., the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G) away from the substrate 11.
[0140] For example, as shown in FIG. 2, considering an example where the light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R, the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G and the light-emitting pattern B1 of the blue light-emitting device B are sequentially forming, there will be a residual layer GO formed by the green quantum dot light-emitting material and a residual layer BO formed by the blue quantum dot light-emitting material on a side of the light-emitting pattern R1 of the red light-emitting device R away from the substrate 11; there will be a residual layer RO formed by the red quantum dot light-emitting material on a side of the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G proximate to the substrate 11, and there will be a residual layer BO formed by the blue quantum dot light-emitting material on a side of the light-emitting pattern G1 of the green light-emitting device G away from the substrate 11; and there will be a residual layer RO formed by the red quantum dot light-emitting material and a residual layer GO formed by the green quantum dot light-emitting material on a side of the light-emitting pattern B1 of the blue light-emitting device B proximate to the substrate 11.
[0141] Such residual layers formed by the quantum dot light-emitting materials may cause color mixing. When the light-emitting devices are lit up, the luminescent spectrum is prone to impurity, thereby affecting the device performance.
[0142] Based on the above problems, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3B, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a light-emitting substrate 10. The light-emitting substrate 10 includes a substrate 11 and a plurality of light-emitting devices 20. The plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are disposed on the substrate 11 and arranged in a first direction X, where the first direction X is parallel to a plane X1 where the substrate 11 is located. Each light-emitting device 20 in the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 includes a first electrode 21, a second electrode 22, and a light-emitting pattern 23 disposed between the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22. The first electrode 21 is closer to the substrate 11 than the second electrode 22.
[0143] For example, as shown in FIGS. 3Ato 3B, the light-emitting substrate 10 further includes a pixel defining layer 12 disposed on the substrate 11. The pixel defining layer 12 has a plurality of openings Q, and the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 may be disposed in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of openings Q.
[0144] In some examples, the first electrode 21 may be an anode, and in this case, the second electrode 22 is a cathode. In some other examples, the first electrode 21 may be a cathode, and in this case, the second electrode 22 is an anode.
[0145] The light-emitting principle of the light-emitting device 20 is as follows: through a circuit connected to the anode and the cathode, holes from the anode are injected into the light-emitting pattern 23 and electrons from the cathode are Injected into the light-emitting pattern 23, the electrons and the holes form excitons in the light-emitting pattern 23, and the excitons return to the ground state by radiative transitions to emit photons.
[0146] As shown in FIGS. 3A to 3B, the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 include at least one first light-emitting device 201. Each first light-emitting device 201 in the at least one first light-emitting device 201 includes a first light-emitting pattern 23a, and a first carrier transport layer 131 and a first carrier injection layer 141 that are disposed between the substrate 11 and the first light-emitting pattern 23a. The first carrier transport layer 131 is closer to the first light-emitting pattern 23a than the first carrier injection layer 141. A material of the first light-emitting pattern 23a includes a first cross-linked light-emitting material; a material of the first carrier transport layer 131 includes a first cross-linked carrier transport material; and a material of the first carrier injection layer 141 includes a first cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0147] For example, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3B, the first carrier injection layer 141, the first carrier transport layer 131, and the first light-emitting pattern 23a are in contact in sequence.
[0148] For example, the first light-emitting device 201 is a light-emitting device for emitting red light, and a first quantum dot material may be a red quantum dot light-emitting material.
[0149] In some examples, the first cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of a first quantum dot material under light radiation, and in this case, the first quantum dot material is a cross-linkable organic material. For example, the first quantum dot material includes a first quantum dot body and a ligand material, and the ligand material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the first quantum dot material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the first quantum dot material to form the first cross-linked light-emitting material, where a solubility of the first quantum dot material in a first solvent is greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked light-emitting material in the first solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the first solvent) and the first quantum dot material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the first quantum dot material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first light-emitting pattern 23a.
[0150] In some other examples, the first cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of a first quantum dot material and a first photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material to form the first cross-linked light-emitting material, where solubilities of the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material in a first solvent are greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked light-emitting material in the first solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the first solvent), and the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first light-emitting pattern 23a.
[0151] For example, the first solvent is a first-type solvent, and the first-type solvent includes at least one of octane and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA).
[0152] For example, the first carrier transport layer 131 is an electron transport layer, and the first carrier injection layer 141 is an electron injection layer. In this case, the first electrode 21 is a cathode, and the second electrode 22 is an anode. The first light-emitting device 201 is an inverted light-emitting device.
[0153] For example, the first carrier transport layer 131 is a hole transport layer, and the first carrier injection layer 141 is a hole injection layer. In this case, the first electrode 21 is an anode, and the second electrode 22 is a cathode. The light-emitting device 201 is an upright light-emitting device.
[0154] In some examples, the first cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of a first carrier transport material under light radiation, and in this case, the first carrier transport material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the first carrier transport material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the first carrier transport material to form the first cross-linked carrier transport material, where a solubility of the first carrier transport material in a second solvent is greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked carrier transport material in the second solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the second solvent) and the first carrier transport material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the first carrier transport material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first carrier transport layer 131.
[0155] In some other examples, the first cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of a first carrier transport material and a second photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material to form the first cross-linked carrier transport material, where solubilities of the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material in a second solvent are greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked carrier transport material in the second solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the second solvent), and the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first carrier transport layer 131.
[0156] For example, the second solvent is a second-type solvent, and the second-type solvent includes at least one of toluene, chlorobenzene or (dichloromethyl)benzene.
[0157] In some examples, the first cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of a first carrier injection material under light radiation, and in this case, the first carrier injection material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the first carrier injection material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the first carrier injection material to form the first cross-linked carrier injection material, where a solubility of the first carrier injection material in a third solvent is greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked carrier injection material in the third solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the third solvent) and the first carrier injection material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the first carrier injection material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first carrier injection layer 141.
[0158] In some other examples, the first cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of a first carrier injection material and a third photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material to form the first cross-linked carrier injection material, where solubilities of the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material in a third solvent are greater than a solubility of the first cross-linked carrier injection material in the third solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the third solvent), and the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, so as to form a patterned first carrier injection layer 141.
[0159] For example, the third solvent is a third-type solvent, and the third-type solvent includes at least one of water, ethanol, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylformamide and thionyl chloride.
[0160] A method for forming at least one first light-emitting device is exemplarily introduced below. As shown in FIG. 4, the method includes M1 to M4.
[0161] In M1, a first electrode layer 21a is formed on the substrate 11; and the first electrode layer 21a includes a first electrode 21 of at least one first light-emitting device 201.
[0162] For example, a process for forming the first electrode layer 21a is magnetron sputtering.
[0163] For example, the first electrodes 21 and the openings Q in the pixel defining layer 12 are in one-to-one correspondence.
[0164] In M2, a first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, a first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and a first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai are sequentially formed on a side of the first electrode layer 21a away from the substrate 11.
[0165] For example, a process for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a third solution, where a solvent of the third solution is the third solvent, and a solute of the third solution is a material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141i, It will be noted that in a case where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by self-crosslinking of the first carrier injection material, the material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is the first carrier injection material. Alternatively, in a case where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by crosslinking of the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material, the material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material.
[0166] For example, a process for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a second solution, where a solvent of the second solution is the second solvent, and a solute of the second solution is a material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131i. It will be noted that in a case where the first cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by self-crosslinking of the first carrier transport material, the material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is the first carrier transport material. Alternatively, in a case where the first cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by crosslinking of the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material, the material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is the first carrier transport material and the second photosensitive material.
[0167] For example, a process for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a first solution, where a solvent of the first solution is the first solvent, and a solute of the first solution is a material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai. It will be noted that in a case where the first cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by self-crosslinking of the first quantum dot material, the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai is the first quantum dot material. Alternatively, in a case where the first cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by crosslinking of the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material, the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai is the first quantum dot material and the first photosensitive material.
[0168] In M3, the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai that are stacked are exposed to convert a material of an exposed portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i into the first cross-linked carrier injection material, convert a material of an exposed portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i into the first cross-linked carrier transport material, and convert a material of an exposed portion of the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai into the first cross-linked light-emitting material.
[0169] It can be understood that the above exposed region is a region corresponding to at least one first light-emitting device 201. In this step, portions, in a region where the at least one first light-emitting device 201 is located, of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai are exposed, so that solubilities of materials, in the region where the at least one first light-emitting device 201 is located, of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai may be changed.
[0170] That is, in this case, a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is converted into the first cross-linked carrier injection material, and a material of a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in the a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141i. The first cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (the third solvent), and the material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is soluble in the developer (the third solvent).
[0171] A portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i located in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is converted into the first cross-linked carrier transport material, and a material of a portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i located in the a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131i. The first cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (the second solvent), and the material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is soluble in the developer (the second solvent).
[0172] A portion of the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai located in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is converted into the first cross-linked light-emitting material, and a material of a portion of the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai located in the a remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai. The first cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (the first solvent), and the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai is soluble in the developer (the first solvent).
[0173] It will be noted that as shown in FIG. 4, the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai are also formed on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11. Although FIG. 4 shows that thicknesses of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11 are inconsistent with thicknesses of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai in the opening Q in the pixel defining layer 12, it is only indicated here that the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai exist on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, and the thicknesses thereof are not limited.
[0174] In M4, the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i and the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai that are stacked are developed to form the first carrier injection layer 141, the first carrier transport layer 131 and the first light-emitting pattern 23a that are stacked.
[0175] For example, M4 may include the following three steps of development.
[0176] A portion of the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai located in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the first solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a first temporary residual layer), while a portion of the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai located in the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located is retained to obtain at least one first light-emitting pattern 23a.
[0177] A portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i located in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the second solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a second temporary residual layer), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the first temporary residual layer on the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i located in the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located is retained to obtain the first carrier transport layer 131 of at least one first light-emitting device 201.
[0178] A portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141i located in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the third solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue such as a first initial residual pattern 330 shown in FIG. 4, and an introduction to the first initial residual pattern 330 refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the second temporary residual layer on the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the first carrier transport layer 131 in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located is retained to obtain the first carrier injection layer 141 of at least one first light-emitting device 201.
[0179] It will be noted that after the first light-emitting pattern 23a is formed, the first initial residual pattern 330 also exists on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11.
[0180] Compared with the direct photolithography method used in the related art to achieve patterning of the quantum dot light-emitting materials, the materials that can undergo cross-linking reaction under light irradiation are provided as the materials of the two front film layers (i.e., the first carrier transport layer 131 and the first carrier injection layer 141). In this way, the two front film layers may be used as double sacrificial layers to remove the portion of the first quantum dot material located in the remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, thereby preventing the first quantum dot material from forming residues in the remaining region except the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, and further solving the problem of color mixing caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material of the former color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the latter color proximate to the substrate 11 in the related art. In addition, the second temporary residual layer is a portion of the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i, and the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i is a film layer in contact with the first initial light-emitting pattern 23ai. Therefore, the above step of developing using a developer (the third solvent) may avoid the residue of the second temporary residual layer in the remaining region, except the region where the first light-emitting device(s) 201 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, and in particular, avoid the residue of the second temporary residual layer in a region where remaining light-emitting devices except the first light-emitting device(s) 201 in the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 is located. Thus, the problem of color mixing may be further solved to avoid the impure light-emitting spectrum, and the device performance may be effectively improved.
[0181] The above is an exemplary introduction to the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 including at least one first light-emitting device 201. The following is an exemplary introduction to the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 including at least one second light-emitting device 202.
[0182] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3Ato 3B, the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 further include at least one second light-emitting device 202. Each second light-emitting device 202 in the at least one second light-emitting device 202 includes a second light-emitting pattern 23b, and a second sacrificial layer group 13B disposed between the substrate 11 and the second light-emitting pattern 23b. The second sacrificial layer group 13B includes a second carrier transport layer 132. A material of the second light-emitting pattern 23b includes a second cross-linked light-emitting material; and a material of the second carrier transport layer 132 includes a second cross-linked carrier transport material.
[0183] For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, the second sacrificial layer group 13B is a second carrier transport layer 132, and the second carrier transport layer 132 is in contact with the second light-emitting pattern 23b. It will be noted that a thickness of the second carrier transport layer 132 is not limited here. For example, a first thickness is defined as a sum of the thicknesses of the first carrier transport layer 131 and the first carrier injection layer 141; and with the first thickness as a reference, the thickness of the second carrier transport layer 132 may be less than the first thickness, or equal to the first thickness, or greater than the first thickness.
[0184] For example, the second light-emitting device 202 is a light-emitting device for emitting green light, and a second quantum dot material may be a green quantum dot light-emitting material.
[0185] In some examples, the second cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of a second quantum dot material under light radiation, and in this case, the second quantum dot material is a cross-linkable organic material. For example, the second quantum dot material includes a second quantum dot body and a ligand material, and the ligand material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the second quantum dot material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the second quantum dot material to form the second cross-linked light-emitting material, where a solubility of the second quantum dot material in a fourth solvent is greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked light-emitting material in the fourth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the fourth solvent) and the second quantum dot material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the second quantum dot material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second light-emitting pattern 23b.
[0186] In some other examples, the second cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of a second quantum dot material and a fourth photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material to form the second cross-linked light-emitting material, where solubilities of the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material in a fourth solvent are greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked light-emitting material in the fourth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the fourth solvent), and the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second light-emitting pattern 23b.
[0187] For example, the fourth solvent is a first-type solvent, and the first-type solvent includes at least one of octane and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA).
[0188] In some examples, the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of a second carrier transport material under light radiation, and in this case, the second carrier transport material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the second carrier transport material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the second carrier transport material to form the second cross-linked carrier transport material, where a solubility of the second carrier transport material in a fifth solvent is greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked carrier transport material in the fifth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the fifth solvent) and the second carrier transport material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the second carrier transport material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second carrier transport layer 132.
[0189] In some other examples, the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of a second carrier transport material and a fifth photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material to form the second cross-linked carrier transport material, where solubilities of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material in a fifth solvent are greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked carrier transport material in the fifth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the fifth solvent), and the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second carrier transport layer 132.
[0190] For example, the fifth solvent is a second-type solvent, and the second-type solvent includes at least one of toluene, chlorobenzene or (dichloromethyl)benzene.
[0191] A method for forming at least one second light-emitting device 202 is exemplarily introduced below. As shown in FIG. 5, the method includes N1 to N3.
[0192] In N1, a second initial carrier transport layer 132i and a second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi are sequentially formed on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 away from the substrate 11.
[0193] For example, a process for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a fifth solution, where a solvent of the fifth solution is the fifth solvent, and a solute of the fifth solution is a material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i. It will be noted that in a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by self-crosslinking of the second carrier transport material, the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is the second carrier transport material. Alternatively, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by crosslinking of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material, the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material.
[0194] For example, a process for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a fourth solution, where a solvent of the fourth solution is the fourth solvent, and a solute of the fourth solution is a material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi. It will be noted that in a case where the second cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by self-crosslinking of the second quantum dot material, the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi is the second quantum dot material. Alternatively, in a case where the second cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by crosslinking of the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material, the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi is the second quantum dot material and the fourth photosensitive material.
[0195] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, in a case where the first initial residual pattern 330 is residual on a side of the first electrode layer 21a away from the substrate 11, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located on a side of the first electrode layer 21a is formed on a surface of the first initial residual pattern 330.
[0196] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, in a case where the first initial residual pattern 330 is residual on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 is formed on a surface of the first initial residual pattern 330.
[0197] In N2, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi that are stacked are exposed to convert a material of an exposed portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i into the second cross-linked carrier transport material, and convert a material of an exposed portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi into the second cross-linked light-emitting material.
[0198] It can be understood that the above exposed region is a region corresponding to at least one second light-emitting device 202. In this step, portions, in a region where the at least one second light-emitting device 202 is located, of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi are exposed, so that solubilities of materials, in the region where the at least one second light-emitting device 202 is located, of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi may be changed.
[0199] That is, in this case, a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is converted into the second cross-linked carrier transport material, and a material of a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i. The first cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (the fifth solvent), and the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is soluble in the developer (the fifth solvent).
[0200] A portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is converted into the second cross-linked light-emitting material, and a material of a portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi. The second cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (the fourth solvent), and the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi is soluble in the developer (the fourth solvent). [0201 ] It will be noted that as shown in FIG. 5, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi are also formed on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11. Although FIG. 5 shows that thicknesses of the second initial carrier transport layer 1321 and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11 are inconsistent with thicknesses of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi in the opening Q in the pixel defining layer 12, it is only indicated here that the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi exist on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, and the thicknesses thereof are not limited.
[0202] In N3, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi that are stacked are developed to form the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second light-emitting pattern 23b that are stacked.
[0203] For example, N3 may include the following two steps of development.
[0204] A portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the fourth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a fourth temporary residual layer), while a portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located is retained to obtain at least one second light-emitting pattern 23b.
[0205] A portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the fifth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue such as a second initial residual pattern 350a shown in FIG. 5, and an introduction to the second initial residual pattern 350a refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the fourth temporary residual layer on the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located is retained to obtain the second carrier transport layer 132 of at least one second light-emitting device 202.
[0206] It will be noted that after the second light-emitting pattern 23b is formed, the second initial residual pattern 350a also exists on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11.
[0207] Compared with the direct photolithography method used in the related art to achieve patterning of the quantum dot light-emitting materials, the materials that can undergo cross-linking reaction under light irradiation are provided as the material of the second sacrificial layer group 13B (i.e., the second carrier transport layer 132), so that the second sacrificial layer group 13B may be used as a sacrificial layer to remove the portion of the second quantum dot material located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, thereby preventing the second quantum dot material from forming residues in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located. In this way, the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the second quantum dot light-emitting material) of the former color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the latter color (e.g., the third light-emitting pattern 23c) proximate to the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved; and the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the second quantum dot light-emitting material) of the latter color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the former color (e.g., the first light-emitting pattern 23a) away from the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved.
[0208] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3B, in a case where the second light-emitting device 202 includes a second light-emitting pattern 23b and a second sacrificial layer group 13B, and the second sacrificial layer group 13B includes a second carrier transport layer 132, the second sacrificial layer group 13B further includes a second carrier injection layer 142. The second carrier injection layer 142 is located on a side of the second carrier transport layer 132 proximate to the substrate, and a material of the second carrier injection layer 142 includes a second cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0209] For example, as shown in FIG. 3B, the second sacrificial layer group 13B is composed of the second carrier injection layer 142 and the second carrier injection layer 142, and the second carrier injection layer 142, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second light-emitting pattern 23b are in contact in sequence. It will be noted that a thickness of the second carrier injection layer 142 is not limited here. For example, with the first thickness as a reference, the thickness of the second carrier injection layer 142 may be less than the first thickness, or equal to the first thickness, or greater than the first thickness.
[0210] In some examples, the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier injection material under light radiation, and in this case, the second carrier injection material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the second carrier injection material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the second carrier injection material to form the second cross-linked carrier injection material, where a solubility of the second carrier injection material in a sixth solvent is greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked carrier injection material in the sixth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the sixth solvent) and the second carrier injection material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the second carrier injection material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second carrier injection layer 142.
[0211] In some other examples, the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of a second carrier injection material and a sixth photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material to form the second cross-linked carrier injection material, where solubilities of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material in a sixth solvent are greater than a solubility of the second cross-linked carrier injection material in the sixth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the sixth solvent), and the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, so as to form a patterned second carrier injection layer 142.
[0212] For example, the sixth solvent is a third-type solvent, and the third-type solvent includes at least one of water, ethanol, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylformamide and thionyl chloride.
[0213] As shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B includes the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, a method for forming at least one second light-emitting device 202 includes, for example, N1'to N3'.
[0214] In N1', a second initial carrier injection layer 142i, a second initial carrier transport layer 132i and a second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi are sequentially formed on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 away from the substrate 11.
[0215] As for an exemplary introduction to the formation of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi, reference may be made to the relevant contents of the aforementioned part N1, and details are not repeated here.
[0216] For example, a process for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a sixth solution, where a solvent of the sixth solution is the sixth solvent, and a solute of the sixth solution is a material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i. It will be noted that in a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by self-crosslinking of the second carrier injection material, the material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i is the second carrier injection material. Alternatively, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by crosslinking of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material, the material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i is the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material.
[0217] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the first initial residual pattern 330 is residual on a side of the first electrode layer 21a away from the substrate 11, the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located on a side of the first electrode layer 21a is formed on a surface of the first initial residual pattern 330.
[0218] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the first initial residual pattern 330 is residual on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located on a side ofthe pixel defining layer 12 is formed on a surface of the first initial residual pattern 330.
[0219] In N2', the second initial carrier injection layer 142i, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi that are stacked are exposed to convert a material of an exposed portion ofthe second initial carrier injection layer 142i into the second cross-linked carrier injection material, convert a material of an exposed portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i into the second cross-linked carrier transport material, and convert a material of an exposed portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi into the second cross-linked light-emitting material.
[0220] It can be understood that the above exposed region is a region corresponding to at least one second light-emitting device 202. In this step, portions, in a region where the at least one second light-emitting device 202 is located, ofthe second initial carrier injection layer 142i, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi are exposed, so that solubilities of materials, in the region where the at least one second light-emitting device 202 is located, ofthe second initial carrier injection layer 142i, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi may be changed.
[0221] That is, in this case, a portion ofthe second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is converted into the second cross-linked carrier injection material, and a material of a portion ofthe second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i, The second cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (the sixth solvent), and the material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i is soluble in the developer (the sixth solvent). As for an exemplary introduction to the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi during exposure, reference may be made to the relevant contents of the aforementioned part N2, and details are not repeated here.
[0222] In N3', the second initial carrier injection layer 142i, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi that are stacked are developed to form the second carrier injection layer 142, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second light-emitting pattern 23b that are stacked.
[0223] For example, N3‘ may include the following three steps of development.
[0224] A portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the fourth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a fourth temporary residual layer), while a portion of the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi located in the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located is retained to obtain at least one second light-emitting pattern 23b.
[0225] A portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the fifth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the second initial carrier transport layer 132i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a fifth temporary residual layer), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the fourth temporary residual layer on the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located is retained to obtain the second carrier transport layer 132 of at least one second light-emitting device 202.
[0226] A portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the sixth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the second initial carrier injection layer 142i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue such as a second initial residual pattern 360b shown in FIG. 6, and an introduction to the second initial residual pattern 360b refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here), and the fifth temporary residual layer of the second carrier transport layer 132 located in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the second carrier transport layer 132 in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in the region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located is retained to obtain the second carrier injection layer 142 of at least one second light-emitting device 202.
[0227] It will be noted that after the second light-emitting pattern 23b is formed, the second initial residual pattern 360b also exists on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11.
[0228] Compared with the direct photolithography method used in the related art to achieve patterning of the quantum dot light-emitting materials, the materials that can undergo cross-linking reaction under light irradiation are provided as the material of the second sacrificial layer group 13B (i.e., the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142). In this way, the second sacrificial layer group 13B may be used as double sacrificial layers to remove the portion of the second quantum dot material located in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, thereby preventing the second quantum dot material from forming residues in the remaining region except the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located. Thus, the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the second quantum dot light-emitting material) of the former color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the latter color (e.g., the third light-emitting pattern 23c) proximate to the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved; and the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the second quantum dot light-emitting material) of the latter color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the former color (e.g., the first light-emitting pattern 23a) away from the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved. In addition, the fifth temporary residual layer is a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i, and the second initial carrier transport layer 132i is a film layer in contact with the second initial light-emitting pattern 23bi. Therefore, the above step of developing using a developer (the sixth solvent) may avoid the residue of the fifth temporary residual layer in the remaining region, except the region where the second light-emitting device(s) 202 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, and in particular, avoid the residue of the fifth temporary residual layer in a region where remaining light-emitting devices except the second light-emitting device(s) 202 in the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 is located. Thus, the problem of color mixing may be further solved to avoid the impure light-emitting spectrum, and the device performance may be effectively improved.
[0229] The above is an exemplary introduction to the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 including at least one second light-emitting device 202. The following is an exemplary introduction to the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 including at least one third light-emitting device 203.
[0230] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3Ato 3B, the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 further include at least one third light-emitting device 203. Each third light-emitting device 203 in the at least one third light-emitting device 203 includes a third light-emitting pattern 23c, and a third sacrificial layer group 13C disposed between the substrate 11 and the third light-emitting pattern 23c. The third sacrificial layer group 13C includes a third carrier transport layer 133. A material of the third light-emitting pattern 23c includes a third cross-linked light-emitting material; and a material of the third carrier transport layer 133 includes a third cross-linked carrier transport material.
[0231] For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, the third sacrificial layer group 13C is a third carrier transport layer 133, and the third carrier transport layer 133 is in contact with the third light-emitting pattern 23c. It will be noted that a thickness of the third carrier transport layer 133 is not limited here. For example, with the first thickness as a reference, the thickness of the third carrier transport layer 133 may be less than the first thickness, or equal to the first thickness, or greater than the first thickness.
[0232] For example, the third light-emitting device 203 is a light-emitting device for emitting blue light, and a third quantum dot material may be a blue quantum dot light-emitting material.
[0233] In some examples, the third cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of the third quantum dot material under light radiation, and in this case, the third quantum dot material is a cross-linkable organic material. For example, the third quantum dot material includes a third quantum dot body and a ligand material, and the ligand material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the third quantum dot material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the third quantum dot material to form the third cross-linked light-emitting material, where a solubility of the third quantum dot material in a seventh solvent is greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked light-emitting material in the seventh solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the seventh solvent) and the third quantum dot material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the third quantum dot material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third light-emitting pattern 23c.
[0234] In some other examples, the third cross-linked light-emitting material is generated by cross-linking of a third quantum dot material and a seventh photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material to form the third cross-linked light-emitting material, where solubilities of the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material in a seventh solvent are greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked light-emitting material in the seventh solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the seventh solvent), and the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third light-emitting pattern 23c.
[0235] For example, the seventh solvent is a first-type solvent, and the first-type solvent includes at least one of octane and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA).
[0236] In some examples, the third cross-linked carrier transport material Is generated by cross-linking of a third carrier transport material under light radiation, and in this case, the third carrier transport material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the third carrier transport material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the third carrier transport material to form the third cross-linked carrier transport material, where a solubility of the third carrier transport material in an eighth solvent is greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked carrier transport material in the eighth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the eighth solvent) and the third carrier transport material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the third carrier transport material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third carrier transport layer 133.
[0237] In some other examples, the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of a third carrier transport material and an eighth photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material to form the third cross-linked carrier transport material, where solubilities of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material in an eighth solvent are greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked carrier transport material in the eighth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the eighth solvent), and the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third carrier transport layer 133.
[0238] For example, the eighth solvent is a second-type solvent, and the second-type solvent includes at least one of toluene, chlorobenzene or (dichloromethyl)benzene.
[0239] A method for forming at least one third light-emitting device 203 is exemplarily introduced below. As shown in FIG. 7, the method includes H1 to H3.
[0240] In H1, a third initial carrier transport layer 133i and a third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci are sequentially formed on a side of the first electrode layer 21 a, the at least one first light-emitting device 201 and the at least one second light-emitting device 202 away from the substrate 11.
[0241] For example, a process for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is an eighth solution, where a solvent of the eighth solution is the eighth solvent, and a solute of the eighth solution is a material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i. It will be noted that in a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by self-crosslinking of the third carrier transport material, the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is the third carrier transport material. Alternatively, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is formed by crosslinking of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material, the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material.
[0242] For example, a process for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a seventh solution, where a solvent of the seventh solution is the seventh solvent, and a solute of the seventh solution is a material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci. It will be noted that in a case where the third cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by self-crosslinking of the third quantum dot material, the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci is the third quantum dot material. Alternatively, in a case where the third cross-linked light-emitting material is formed by crosslinking of the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material, the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci is the third quantum dot material and the seventh photosensitive material.
[0243] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in a case where the second initial residual pattern 350a is residual on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 away from the substrate 11, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 is formed on a surface of the second initial residual pattern 350a.
[0244] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in a case where the second initial residual pattern 350a is residual on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 is formed on a surface of the second initial residual pattern 350a.
[0245] In H2, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci that are stacked are exposed to convert a material of an exposed portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i into the third cross-linked carrier transport material, and convert a material of an exposed portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci into the third cross-linked light-emitting material.
[0246] It can be understood that the above exposed region is a region corresponding to at least one third light-emitting device 203. In this step, portions, in a region where the at least one third light-emitting device 203 is located, of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci are exposed, so that solubilities of materials, in the region where the at least one third light-emitting device 203 is located, of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci may be changed.
[0247] That is, in this case, a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is converted into the third cross-linked carrier transport material, and a material of a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i. The first cross-linked carrier transport material is insoluble in a developer (the eighth solvent), and the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is soluble in the developer (the fifth solvent).
[0248] A portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is converted into the third cross-linked light-emitting material, and a material of a portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci. The third cross-linked light-emitting material is insoluble in a developer (the seventh solvent), and the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci is soluble in the developer (the seventh solvent).
[0249] It will be noted that as shown in FIG. 7, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci are also formed on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11. Although FIG. 7 shows that thicknesses of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11 are inconsistent with thicknesses of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci in the opening Q in the pixel defining layer 12, it is only indicated here that the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci exist on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, and the thicknesses thereof are not limited.
[0250] In H3, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci that are stacked are developed to form the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third light-emitting pattern 23b that are stacked. [0251 ] For example, H3 may include the following two steps of development.
[0252] A portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the seventh solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a seventh temporary residual layer), while a portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located is retained to obtain at least one third light-emitting pattern 23c.
[0253] A portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the eighth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue such as a third initial residual pattern 380a shown in FIG. 7, and an introduction to the third initial residual pattern 380a refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the seventh temporary residual layer on the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located is retained to obtain the third carrier transport layer 133 of at least one third light-emitting device 203.
[0254] It will be noted that after the third light-emitting pattern 23c is formed, the third initial residual pattern 380a also exists on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11.
[0255] Compared with the direct photolithography method used in the related art to achieve patterning of the quantum dot light-emitting materials, the materials that can undergo cross-linking reaction under light irradiation are provided as the material of the third sacrificial layer group 13C (i.e., the third carrier transport layer 133), so that the third sacrificial layer group 13C may be used as a sacrificial layer to remove the portion of the third quantum dot material located In the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, thereby preventing the third quantum dot material from forming residues in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located. In this way, the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the third quantum dot light-emitting material) of the latter color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the former color (e.g., the first light-emitting pattern 23a or the second light-emitting pattern 23b) away from the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved.
[0256] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3B, in a case where the third light-emitting device 203 includes a third light-emitting pattern 23c and a third sacrificial layer group 13C, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C includes a third carrier transport layer 133, the third sacrificial layer group 13C further includes a third carrier injection layer 143. The third carrier injection layer 143 is located on a side of the third carrier transport layer 133 proximate to the substrate 11, and a material of the third carrier injection layer 143 includes a third cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0257] For example, as shown in FIG. 3B, the third sacrificial layer group 13C is composed of the third carrier injection layer 143 and the third carrier injection layer 143, and the third carrier injection layer 143, the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third light-emitting pattern 23c are in contact in sequence. It will be noted that a thickness of the third carrier injection layer 143 is not limited here. For example, with the first thickness as a reference, the thickness of the third carrier injection layer 143 may be less than the first thickness, or equal to the first thickness, or greater than the first thickness.
[0258] In some examples, the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material under light radiation, and in this case, the third carrier injection material is a cross-linkable organic material. That is, the third carrier injection material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is exposed to achieve self-crosslinking of the third carrier injection material to form the third cross-linked carrier injection material, where a solubility of the third carrier injection material in a ninth solvent is greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked carrier injection material in the ninth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the ninth solvent) and the third carrier injection material is soluble in the developer, to remove a portion of the third carrier injection material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third carrier injection layer 143.
[0259] In some other examples, the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of a third carrier injection material and a ninth photosensitive material under light radiation. That is, the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located are exposed to achieve crosslinking of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material to form the third cross-linked carrier injection material, where solubilities of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material in a ninth solvent are greater than a solubility of the third cross-linked carrier injection material in the ninth solvent; and then, development is carried out, where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (e.g., the ninth solvent), and the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material are soluble in the developer, to remove portions of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material in a remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, so as to form a patterned third carrier injection layer 143.
[0260] For example, the ninth solvent is a third-type solvent, and the third-type solvent includes at least one of water, ethanol, methanol, H,H-dimethylformamide, H-methylformamide and thionyl chloride.
[0261] As shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C includes the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier injection layer 143, a method for forming at least one third light-emitting device 203 includes, for example, H1'to H3'.
[0262] In H1a third initial carrier injection layer 143i, a third initial carrier transport layer 133i and a third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci are sequentially formed on a side of the first electrode layer 21a, the at least one first light-emitting device 201 and the at least one second light-emitting device 202 away from the substrate 11.
[0263] As for an exemplary introduction to the formation of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci, reference may be made to the relevant contents of the aforementioned part H1, and details are not repeated here.
[0264] For example, a process for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i is any of spin coating, screen printing, scraping coating and drip coating, and a process solution is a ninth solution, where a solvent of the ninth solution is the ninth solvent, and a solute of the ninth solution is a material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i. It will be noted that in a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by self-crosslinking of the third carrier injection material, the material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i is the third carrier injection material. Alternatively, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is formed by crosslinking of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material, the material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i is the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material.
[0265] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the second initial residual pattern 360b is residual on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 away from the substrate 11, the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located on a side of the first electrode layer 21a and the at least one first light-emitting device 201 is formed on a surface of the second initial residual pattern 360b.
[0266] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the second initial residual pattern 360b is residual on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11, the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 is formed on a surface of the second initial residual pattern 360b.
[0267] In H2', the third initial carrier injection layer 143i, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci that are stacked are exposed to convert a material of an exposed portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i into the third cross-linked carrier injection material, convert a material of an exposed portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i into the third cross-linked carrier transport material, and convert a material of an exposed portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci into the third cross-linked light-emitting material.
[0268] It can be understood that the above exposed region is a region corresponding to at least one third light-emitting device 203. In this step, portions, in a region where the at least one third light-emitting device 203 is located, of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i, the third initial carrier transport layer 133I and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci are exposed, so that solubilities of materials, in the region where the at least one third light-emitting device 203 is located, of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci may be changed.
[0269] That is, in this case, a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is converted into the third cross-linked carrier injection material, and a material of a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located remains unchanged and is still the material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i. The third cross-linked carrier injection material is insoluble in a developer (the ninth solvent), and the material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i is soluble in the developer (the ninth solvent). As for an exemplary introduction to the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci during exposure, reference may be made to the relevant contents of the aforementioned part H2, and details are not repeated here.
[0270] In H3', the third initial carrier injection layer 143i, the third initial carrier transport layer 133i and the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci that are stacked are developed to form the third carrier injection layer 143, the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third light-emitting pattern 23c that are stacked.
[0271] For example, H3‘ may include the following three steps of development.
[0272] A portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the seventh solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form a seventh temporary residual layer), while a portion of the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci located in the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located is retained to obtain at least one third light-emitting pattern 23c.
[0273] A portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the eighth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the third initial carrier transport layer 133i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue to form an eighth temporary residual layer), and a portion, located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, of the seventh temporary residual layer on the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located is retained to obtain the third carrier transport layer 133 of at least one third light-emitting device 203.
[0274] A portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is removed using a developer (the ninth solvent) (a portion of the material for forming the third initial carrier injection layer 143i proximate to the substrate 11 has a residue such as a third initial residual pattern 390b shown in FIG. 8, and an introduction to the third initial residual pattern 390b refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here), and the eighth temporary residual layer of the third carrier transport layer 133 located in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located is also removed, so as to avoid the residue of the material for forming the third carrier transport layer 133 in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in the region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located. Whereas, a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located is retained to obtain the third carrier injection layer 143 of at least one third light-emitting device 203.
[0275] It will be noted that after the third light-emitting pattern 23c is formed, the third initial residual pattern 390b also exists on the side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11.
[0276] Compared with the direct photolithography method used in the related art to achieve patterning of the quantum dot light-emitting materials, the materials that can undergo cross-linking reaction under light irradiation are provided as the material of the third sacrificial layer group 13C (i.e., the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier injection layer 143). In this way, the third sacrificial layer group 13C may be used as double sacrificial layers to remove the portion of the third quantum dot material located in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, thereby preventing the third quantum dot material from forming residues in the remaining region except the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located. Thus, the problem of color mixing, caused by the residue of the quantum dot light-emitting material (e.g., the third quantum dot light-emitting material) of the latter color on a side of the light-emitting pattern of the former color (e.g., the first light-emitting pattern 23a or the second light-emitting pattern 23c) away from the substrate 11 in the related art, may be solved. In addition, the eighth temporary residual layer is a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i, and the third initial carrier transport layer 133i is a film layer in contact with the third initial light-emitting pattern 23ci. Therefore, the above step of developing using a developer (the ninth solvent) may avoid the residue of the eighth temporary residual layer in the remaining region, except the region where the third light-emitting device(s) 203 are located, in a region where the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are located, and in particular, avoid the residue of the eighth temporary residual layer in a region where remaining light-emitting devices except the third light-emitting device(s) 203 in the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 is located. Thus, the problem of color mixing may be further solved to avoid the impure light-emitting spectrum, and the device performance may be effectively improved.
[0277] In some embodiments, the first carrier transport layer 131, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133 are hole transport layers, and the first carrier injection layer 141, the second carrier injection layer 142 and the third carrier injection layer 143 are hole injection layers. In this case, the first electrode 21 is an anode and the second electrode 22 is a cathode. The first light-emitting device 201 is an "upright" light-emitting device. In this case, the front film layer of the hole injection layer is the anode. The anode formed by magnetron sputtering has a high density and is insoluble in organic solvents. In this way, tolerance of the "upright" light-emitting device to solvent immersion and development during formation may be improved.
[0278] In some other embodiments, the first carrier transport layer 131, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133 are electron transport layers, and the first carrier injection layer 141, the second carrier injection layer 142 and the third carrier injection layer 143 are electron injection layers. In this case, the first electrode 21 is a cathode and the second electrode 22 is an anode. The first light-emitting device 201 is an "inverted" light-emitting device.
[0279] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3B, at least one first light-emitting device 201 is configured to emit light of a first wavelength. For example, the light of the first wavelength is red light. Each first light-emitting device 201 of the at least one first light-emitting devices 201 further includes a first pattern layer 71 and a second pattern layer 72. The first pattern layer 71 is disposed on a side of the first light-emitting pattern 23a away from the substrate 11, the second pattern layer 72 is disposed on a side of the first pattern layer 71 away from the substrate 11, and the first light-emitting pattern 23a, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 are in contact in sequence.
[0280] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132, the first pattern layer 71 is a second initial residual pattern 350a formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the first pattern layer 71 is the same as the material of the second initial residual pattern 350a. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, since a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i corresponding to the first pattern layer 71 is not exposed during formation of at least one second light-emitting device 202 and at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the first pattern layer 71 is also the same as the material of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i.
[0281] That is, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier transport material under light radiation, the material of the first pattern layer 71 includes the second carrier transport material. In a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the first pattern layer 71 includes the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material.
[0282] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier transport layer 132 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 350a. Therefore, a thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a is smaller than a thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132. Therefore, a thickness of the first pattern layer 71 (which is equal to the thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a) is smaller than the thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132.
[0283] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, the first pattern layer 71 is a second initial residual pattern 360b formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the first pattern layer 71 is the same as the material of the second initial residual pattern 360b. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, since a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i corresponding to the first pattern layer 71 is not exposed during formation of at least one second light-emitting device 202 and at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the first pattern layer 71 is also the same as the material of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i.
[0284] That is, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the first pattern layer 71 includes the second carrier injection material. In a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the first pattern layer 71 includes the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material.
[0285] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier injection layer 142 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 360b. Therefore, a thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b is smaller than a thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142. Therefore, a thickness of the first pattern layer 71 (which is equal to the thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b) is smaller than the thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142.
[0286] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133, the second pattern layer 72 is a third initial residual pattern 380a formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the second pattern layer 72 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 380a. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, since a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 380a is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, a material of the second pattern layer 72 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i.
[0287] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material under light radiation, the material of the second pattern layer 72 includes the third carrier transport material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the second pattern layer 72 includes the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material.
[0288] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier transport layer 133 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is washed away during development to form a third initial residual pattern 380a. Therefore, a thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a is smaller than a thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133. Therefore, a thickness of the second pattern layer 72 (which is equal to the thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a) is smaller than the thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133.
[0289] It will be noted that in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133, if a second carrier transport material of the first pattern layer 71 is the same as a third carrier transport material of the second pattern layer 72, and a fifth photosensitive material of the first pattern layer 71 is the same as an eighth photosensitive material of the second pattern layer 72, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 have the same materials in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 may be regarded as one layer, and the thickness of the layer is (d11+d21).
[0290] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3A, in a case where the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133 are hole transport layers, in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 may serve as an electron blocking layer of the first light-emitting device 201 and are used to improve electron injection of the first light-emitting device 201 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0291] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier injection layer 143, the second pattern layer 72 is a third initial residual pattern 390b formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the second pattern layer 72 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 390b. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 8, since a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 390b is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the second pattern layer 72 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i.
[0292] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the second pattern layer 72 includes the third carrier injection material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the second pattern layer 72 includes the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material.
[0293] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier injection layer 143 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located is washed away during development to form a third initial residual pattern 390b. Therefore, a thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b is smaller than a thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143. Therefore, a thickness of the second pattern layer 72 (which is equal to the thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b) is smaller than the thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143.
[0294] It will be noted that in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier injection layer 143, if a second carrier injection material of the first pattern layer 71 is the same as a third carrier injection material of the second pattern layer 72, and a sixth photosensitive material of the first pattern layer 71 is the same as a ninth photosensitive material of the second pattern layer 72, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 have the same materials in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 may be regarded as one layer, and the thickness of the layer is (d13+d23).
[0295] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3B, in a case where the second carrier injection layer 142 and the third carrier injection layer 143 are hole injection layers, in the region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 may serve as an electron blocking layer of the first light-emitting device 201, and are used to improve electron injection of the first light-emitting device 201 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0296] For example, since differences between HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) energy levels of the red quantum dot light-emitting material, the green quantum dot light-emitting material and the blue quantum dot light-emitting material and the HOMO energy level of the carrier transport material increase, the hole injection capability is expressed as red light-emitting device R >green light-emitting device G >blue light-emitting device B, and the electron injection capability is expressed as red light-emitting device R = green light-emitting device G >blue light-emitting device B. The electron injection capability of the red light-emitting device R is greater than the hole injection capability of the red light-emitting device R. Therefore, in a case where at least one first light-emitting device 201 is configured to emit light of a first wavelength, and the light of the first wavelength is red light, as shown in FIGS. 3Aand 3B, the first pattern layer 71 and the second pattern layer 72 residual on the side of the first light-emitting device 201 away from the substrate 11 may effectively block injection of electrons, so that transmission of carriers (including electrons and holes) of the first light-emitting device 201 (the red light-emitting device R) may be balanced, which is beneficial to improving an external quantum efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0297] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3Ato 3B, at least one second light-emitting device 202 is configured to emit light of a second wavelength. For example, the light of the second wavelength is green light. At least one second light-emitting device 202 further includes a third pattern layer 73 and a fourth pattern layer 74. The third pattern layer 73 is disposed on a side of the second sacrificial layer group 13B proximate to the substrate 11, the fourth pattern layer 74 is disposed on a side of the second light-emitting pattern 23b away from the substrate 11, and the third pattern layer 73, the second sacrificial layer group 13B, the second light-emitting pattern 23b and the fourth pattern layer 74 are in contact in sequence.
[0298] For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the third pattern layer 73 is formed by exposing (exposure of the second light-emitting device 202) a first initial residual pattern 330 that is formed by developing a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located. Therefore, the third pattern layer 73 and the first carrier injection layer 141 are made of the same materials, which are the first cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0299] A portion, after exposure and development, of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located forms the first carrier injection layer 141 of the first light-emitting device 201; and a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is washed away during development to form the first initial residual pattern 330. Therefore, a thickness d31 of the first initial residual pattern 330 is smaller than a thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141. Therefore, a thickness of the third pattern layer 73 (which is equal to the thickness d31 of the first initial residual pattern 330) is smaller than the thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141.
[0300] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3B, in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, since the third pattern layer 73 is the first initial residual pattern 330 formed by developing the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the third pattern layer 73 may serve as at least part of a hole injection layer of the second light-emitting device 202, and is used to improve hole injection of the second light-emitting device 202 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0301] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133, the fourth pattern layer 74 is a third initial residual pattern 380a formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the fourth pattern layer 74 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 380a. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, since a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 380a is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i.
[0302] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material under light radiation, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 includes the third carrier transport material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 includes the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material.
[0303] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier transport layer 133 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is washed away during development to form the third initial residual pattern 380a. Therefore, a thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a is smaller than a thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133. Therefore, a thickness of the fourth pattern layer 74 (which is equal to the thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a) is smaller than a thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133.
[0304] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3A, in a case where the third carrier transport layer 133 is a hole transport layer, in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, the fourth pattern layer 74 may serve as an electron blocking layer of the second light-emitting device 202, and is used to improve electron injection of the second light-emitting device 202 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0305] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier transport layer 143, the fourth pattern layer 74 is a third initial residual pattern 390b formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the fourth pattern layer 74 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 390b. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 8, since a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 390b is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i.
[0306] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 includes the third carrier injection material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the fourth pattern layer 74 includes the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material.
[0307] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier injection layer 143 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located is washed away during development to form the third initial residual pattern 390b. Therefore, a thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b is smaller than a thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143. Therefore, a thickness of the fourth pattern layer 74 (which is equal to the thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b) is smaller than a thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143.
[0308] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3B, in a case where the third carrier injection layer 143 is a hole injection layer, in the region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located, the fourth pattern layer 74 may serve as an electron blocking layer of the second light-emitting device 202, and is used to improve electron injection of the second light-emitting device 202 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0309] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3Ato 3B, at least one third light-emitting device 203 is configured to emit light of a third wavelength. For example, the light of the third wavelength is blue light. At least one third light-emitting device 203 further includes a fifth pattern layer 75 and a sixth pattern layer 76. The sixth pattern layer 76 is disposed on a side of the third sacrificial layer group 13C proximate to the substrate 11, the fifth pattern layer 75 is disposed on a side of the sixth pattern layer 76 proximate to the substrate, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C, the sixth pattern layer 76 and the fifth pattern layer 75 are in contact in sequence.
[0310] For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the fifth pattern layer 75 is formed by exposing (exposure of the third light-emitting device 203) a first initial residual pattern 330 that is formed by developing a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located. Therefore, the fifth pattern layer 75 and the first carrier injection layer 141 are made of the same materials, which are the first cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0311] A portion, after exposure and development, of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located forms the first carrier injection layer 141 of the first light-emitting device 201; and a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is washed away during development to form the first initial residual pattern 330. Therefore, a thickness d31 of the first initial residual pattern 330 is smaller than a thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141. Therefore, a thickness of the fifth pattern layer 75 (which is equal to the thickness d31 of the first initial residual pattern 330) is smaller than the thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141.
[0312] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132, the sixth pattern layer 76 is formed by exposing (exposure of the third light-emitting device 203) a second initial residual pattern 350a formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located. Therefore, the sixth pattern layer 76 and the second carrier transport layer 132 are made of the same materials, which are the second cross-linked carrier transport material.
[0313] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier transport layer 132 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 350a. Therefore, a thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a is smaller than a thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132. Therefore, a thickness of the sixth pattern layer 76 (which is equal to the thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a) is smaller than the thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132.
[0314] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, the sixth pattern layer 76 is formed by exposing (exposure of the third light-emitting device 203) a second initial residual pattern 360b formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located. Therefore, the sixth pattern layer 76 and the second carrier injection layer 142 are made of the same materials, which are the second cross-linked carrier injection material.
[0315] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier injection layer 142 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 360b. Therefore, a thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b is smaller than a thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142. Therefore, a thickness of the sixth pattern layer 76 (which is equal to the thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b) is smaller than the thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142.
[0316] It can be understood that as shown in FIG. 3B, in the region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located, in a case where the material of the fifth pattern layer 75 is the first carrier injection material and the material of the sixth pattern layer 76 is the second carrier injection material, the fifth pattern layer 75 and the sixth pattern layer 76 may serve as part of a hole injection layer of the third light-emitting device 203, and is used to improve hole injection of the third light-emitting device 203 and enhance an efficiency of the light-emitting device 20.
[0317] In some embodiments, the light-emitting substrate 1 further includes a pixel defining layer 12. The pixel defining layer 12 is provided with a plurality of openings Q therein, and the plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are disposed in the plurality of openings Q in one-to-one correspondence. A seventh pattern layer 81, an eighth pattern layer 82 and a ninth pattern layer 83 are provided on a side of the pixel defining layer 12 away from the substrate 11. The seventh pattern layer 81, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 are sequentially disposed in a direction away from the substrate 11, and the seventh pattern layer 81, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 are in contact in sequence.
[0318] For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the seventh pattern layer 81 is a first initial residual pattern 330 formed by developing a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the seventh pattern layer 81 is the same as the material of the first initial residual pattern 330. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, since a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i corresponding to the seventh pattern layer 81 is not exposed during formation of at least one second light-emitting device 202 and at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the seventh pattern layer 81 is also the same as the material of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i.
[0319] That is, in a case where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the first carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the seventh pattern layer 81 includes the first carrier injection material. In a case where the first cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the seventh pattern layer 81 includes the first carrier injection material and the third photosensitive material.
[0320] A portion, after exposure and development, of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the first light-emitting device 201 is located forms the first carrier injection layer 141 of the first light-emitting device 201; and a portion of the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located is washed away during development to form the first initial residual pattern 330 (the seventh pattern layer 81). Therefore, a thickness d31 of the first initial residual pattern 330 is smaller than a thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141. Therefore, a thickness of the seventh pattern layer 81 (which is equal to the thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b) is smaller than the thickness d32 of the first carrier injection layer 141.
[0321] For example, as shown in FIG. 5, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132, the eighth pattern layer 82 is a second initial residual pattern 350a formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the eighth pattern layer 82 is the same as the material of the second initial residual pattern 350a. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, since a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i corresponding to the eighth pattern layer 82 is not exposed during formation of at least one second light-emitting device 202 and at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 is also the same as the material of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i.
[0322] That is, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier transport material under light radiation, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 includes the second carrier transport material. In a case where the second cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 includes the second carrier transport material and the fifth photosensitive material.
[0323] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier transport layer 132 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier transport layer 132i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 350a (the eighth pattern layer 82). Therefore, a thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a is smaller than a thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132. Therefore, a thickness of the eighth pattern layer 82 (which is equal to the thickness d11 of the second initial residual pattern 350a) is smaller than the thickness d12 of the second carrier transport layer 132.
[0324] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, the eighth pattern layer 82 is a second initial residual pattern 360b formed by developing a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the eighth pattern layer 82 is the same as the material of the second initial residual pattern 360b. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, since a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i corresponding to the eighth pattern layer 82 is not exposed during formation of at least one second light-emitting device 202 and at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 is also the same as the material of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i.
[0325] That is, in a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 includes the second carrier injection material. In a case where the second cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the eighth pattern layer 82 includes the second carrier injection material and the sixth photosensitive material.
[0326] A portion, after exposure and development, of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the second light-emitting device 202 is located forms the second carrier injection layer 142 of the second light-emitting device 202; and a portion of the second initial carrier injection layer 142i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located is washed away during development to form the second initial residual pattern 360b (the eighth pattern layer 82). Therefore, a thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b is smaller than a thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142. Therefore, a thickness of the eighth pattern layer 82 (which is equal to the thickness d13 of the second initial residual pattern 360b) is smaller than the thickness d14 of the second carrier injection layer 142.
[0327] For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133, the ninth pattern layer 83 is a third initial residual pattern 380a formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the ninth pattern layer 83 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 380a. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, since a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 380a is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i.
[0328] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material under light radiation, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 includes the third carrier transport material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier transport material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 includes the third carrier transport material and the eighth photosensitive material.
[0329] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier transport layer 133 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier transport layer 133i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located is washed away during development to form the third initial residual pattern 380a (the ninth pattern layer 83). Therefore, a thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a is smaller than a thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133. Therefore, a thickness of the ninth pattern layer 83 (which is equal to the thickness d21 of the third initial residual pattern 380a) is smaller than a thickness d22 of the third carrier transport layer 133.
[0330] It will be noted that in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133, if the second carrier transport material of the eighth pattern layer 82 is the same as the third carrier transport material of the ninth pattern layer 83, and the fifth photosensitive material of the eighth pattern layer 82 is the same as the eighth photosensitive material of the ninth pattern layer 83, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 have the same materials in the region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 may be regarded as one layer, and the thickness of the layer is (d11+d21).
[0331] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, in a case where the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier transport layer 143, the ninth pattern layer 83 is a third initial residual pattern 390b formed by developing a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located. Therefore, a material for forming the ninth pattern layer 83 is the same as the material of the third initial residual pattern 390b. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 8, since a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i corresponding to the third initial residual pattern 390b is not exposed during formation of at least one third light-emitting device 203, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 is also the same as the material of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i.
[0332] That is, in a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material under light radiation, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 includes the third carrier injection material. In a case where the third cross-linked carrier injection material is generated by cross-linking of the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material under light radiation, the material of the ninth pattern layer 83 includes the third carrier injection material and the ninth photosensitive material.
[0333] A portion, after exposure and development, of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the third light-emitting device 203 is located forms the third carrier injection layer 143 of the third light-emitting device 203; and a portion of the third initial carrier injection layer 143i located in a region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located is washed away during development to form the third initial residual pattern 390b (the ninth pattern layer 83). Therefore, a thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b is smaller than a thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143. Therefore, a thickness of the ninth pattern layer 83 (which is equal to the thickness d23 of the third initial residual pattern 390b) is smaller than a thickness d24 of the third carrier injection layer 143.
[0334] It will be noted that in a case where the second sacrificial layer group 13B is the second carrier transport layer 132 and the second carrier injection layer 142, and the third sacrificial layer group 13C is the third carrier transport layer 133 and the third carrier injection layer 143, if a first carrier injection material of the seventh pattern layer 81, a second carrier injection material of the eighth pattern layer 82 and a third carrier injection material of the ninth pattern layer 83 are the same, and a third photosensitive material of the seventh pattern layer 81, a sixth photosensitive material of the eighth pattern layer 82 and a ninth photosensitive material of the ninth pattern layer 83 are the same, the seventh pattern layer 81, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 have the same materials in the region where the pixel defining layer 12 is located, the seventh pattern layer 81, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83 may be regarded as one layer, and the thickness of the layer is (d13+ d23+d31).
[0335] It will be noted that in the first pattern layer 71, the second pattern layer 72, the third pattern layer 73, the fourth pattern layer 74, the fifth pattern layer 75, the sixth pattern layer 76, the seventh pattern layer 81, the eighth pattern layer 82 and the ninth pattern layer 83, not all the pattern layers exist, and only part of the pattern layers may exist. For example, the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i is removed cleanly after development, and there is no residue of the first initial residual pattern 330. Then, the third pattern layer 73, the fifth pattern layer 75 and the seventh pattern layer 81 may not exist.
[0336] The above is an exemplary introduction to the residual pattern layer in the first light-emitting device 201, the second light-emitting device 202, the third light-emitting device 203 and the pixel defining layer 12. The following is an exemplary introduction to the structures of the cross-linked materials in the first light-emitting device 201, the second light-emitting device 202 and the third light-emitting device 203 and the structures of the photosensitive materials for forming the cross-linked materials.
[0337] In some embodiments, the first photosensitive material, the fourth photosensitive material and the seventh photosensitive material are the same or different, and are each independently selected from any of first type of photosensitive materials.

[0339] For example, the first ligand material coordinated on the quantum dot body is used to be cross-linked with the first type of photosensitive material (the first photosensitive material, the fourth photosensitive material and the seventh photosensitive material). The first ligand material contains a carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH, and as shown in the following formula, the carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH and the first type of photosensitive group may undergo a carbon-hydrogen insertion reaction under light radiation, where T is an active intermediate free radical generated by the first type of photosensitive group under light radiation. In the carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH, Z is any of primary carbon, secondary carbon and tertiary carbon.

[0343] The quantum dot with core-shell structure refers to a quantum dot in which one material is a core material and the other is a shell material. For example, a quantum dot of CdS@ZnS means that a core material of the quantum dot is CdS and a shell material thereof is ZnS. The quantum dot with core-shell structure is selected from one or more of CdS@ZnS, CdSe@CdS, lnP@ZnS, CdTe@CdSe, CdSe@ZnTe, ZnTe@CdSe, ZnSe@CdS and Cdi-xZnxS@ZnS, where x is greater than 0 and less than 1 (0 <x <1), but is not limited thereto.

[0345] In some other embodiments, the quantum dot body may be any of other nanoscale materials, such as a nanorod, a nanosheet, or the like. Components of other nanoscale materials may include at least one of CulnS2, CulnSe2, AglnS2 and the like, but are not limited thereto.
[0346] It will be noted that the structural formulas listed above are examples of the structure of the quantum dot body, but are not limitations on the structure of the quantum dot body. The structure of the quantum dot body is not limited here, as long as the requirement of the first ligand material being coordinated on the quantum dot body is met.
[0347] For example, the first ligand material may be an organic molecule containing a hydrocarbon chain. For example, the first ligand material is selected from any of an organic acid, an organic amine, an organophosphorus and an organic thiol, and includes, but is not limited to, oleic acid, oleylamine, 1-dodecanethiol, n-tetradecylphosphonic acid, tri-n-octylphosphine, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, polyethylene glycol or polyvinylpyrrolidone.
[0348] For example, the first ligand material contains a C-H bond, and the first ligand material is cross-linked with the first type of photosensitive material through a carbon-hydrogen (C-H) insertion reaction. For convenience of representation, the first ligand material may be represented by the following formula: r3 I H--C---R2 Ri
[0349] Where R2 and R3 are the same or different, and are each independently selected from any of a hydrogen bond, a saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group with C1 to C40, a cycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, a heterocycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, an aryl group with C6 to C40, and a heteroaryl group with C6 to C40.
[0350] Ri is selected from any of a C1 to C40 carbon chain with a carboxyl group, a C1 to C40 carbon chain with an amino group, and a C1 to C40 carbon chain with a sulfhydryl group; and any of the carboxyl group, the amino group and the sulfhydryl group is connected to the quantum dot body by coordination.
[0351] It will be noted that a Cx carbon chain refers to a carbon chain containing x carbon (C) atoms, and the same applies below.
[0352] The C-H bond in the first ligand material may be cross-linked with the first type of photosensitive material (the first photosensitive material, the fourth photosensitive material and the seventh photosensitive material) under light radiation. A specific introduction to the cross-linking reaction refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here.
[0353] In some embodiments, the first type of photosensitive material is selected from any of structures shown in the following general formula (IV-A). first photosensitive group
[0354] Where a benzophenone group is the first photosensitive group.
[0355] Li is selected from any of a single bond, an ester bond, an ether bond and a thioether bond.
[0356] R4 and Rs are the same or different, and are each independently selected from any of a hydrogen bond, a saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group with C1 to C40, a cycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, a heterocycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, an aryl group with C6 to C40, and a heteroaryl group with C6 to C40.
[0357] a is selected from positive integers greater than or equal to 2.
[0358] It will be noted that a represents the number of the corresponding groups. The value of a is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, that is, a may take a value of an integer of 2, 3, 4, or greater than 4.
[0359] If there are a lot of C atoms in Rs, a may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of a may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the first type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of a, the more reaction sites the first type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the first type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, a may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0360] The first type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (IV-A) contains a benzophenone group. The first type of photosensitive material containing a benzophenone group may be cross-linked with the first ligand material coordinated on the quantum dot body. For example, benzophenone is photolyzed to form a triplet ketone intermediate under light radiation (hv), with a structure shown in the following formula, in which the C'-O* in the triplet ketone intermediate will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction. Benzophenone Triplet Ketone Intermediate
[0361] In some embodiments, a reaction principle of the first type of photosensitive material and the quantum dot material (including the first quantum dot material, the second quantum dot material and the third quantum dot material) is as shown in the following formula. The active intermediate free radical C*-O* (carbon-oxygen free radical) contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the first type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond nearby, that is, the C*-O* contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the first type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond in the first ligand material coordinated on the quantum dot body (QD), so that the C-H bond in the first ligand material is broken.
[0362] After the C-H bond in the first ligand material is broken, a carbon free radical (C*) and a hydrogen free radical (H*) are formed. An oxygen free radical (O*) in the first type of photosensitive material will attack the hydrogen free radical (H*) to form a hydrogen-oxygen bond (-OH), and a carbon free radical (C*) in the first type of photosensitive material will attack the carbon free radical (Ce) in the first ligand material to form a carbon-carbon bond, so that the first type of photosensitive material and the quantum dot material (including the first quantum dot material, the second quantum dot material and the third quantum dot material) are cross-linked to form a cross-linked light-emitting material (including the first cross-linked light-emitting material, the second cross-linked light-emitting material and the third cross-linked light-emitting material). ..first type of photosensitive material

Details are not repeated here.
[0367] For example, a takes a value of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, which is not limited here. By setting the value of a to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, each benzophenone group in the first type of photosensitive material may be connected to a first ligand material molecule. Therefore, the first type of photosensitive material molecule containing benzophenone groups with the number of a may achieve connection of quantum dot material (including the first quantum dot material, the second quantum dot material and the third quantum dot material) molecules with the number of a to form a cross-linked light-emitting material (including the first cross-linked light-emitting material, the second cross-linked light-emitting material and the third cross-linked light-emitting material).

[0374] If there are a lot of C atoms in Re, b may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of b may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the first type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of b, the more reaction sites the first type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the first type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, b may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0375] The first type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (IV-B) contains an azide group. The first type of photosensitive material containing an azide group may be cross-linked with the first ligand material coordinated on the quantum dot body. For example, the azide group is photolyzed to form an active intermediate free radical nitrene N • under light radiation (hv), in which nitrene will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction.
[0376] For example, the first type of photosensitive material containing an azide group (-N3) and the C-H bond in the first ligand material undergo a cross-linking reaction under light irradiation, and the cross-linking reaction is shown in the following formula. Here, b takes a value of 2, the second type of photosensitive material contains 2 azide groups (-N3), each azide group (-N3) will produce a nitrene, and each nitrene attacks a first ligand material molecule.

[0377] In some embodiments, any of the first cross-linked light-emitting material, the second cross-linked light-emitting material and the third cross-linked light-emitting material includes any of structures shown in the following general formula (l-B). (l-B)
[0378] It will be noted that as for description of Ri, reference may be made to the above description of Ri. As for description of RT, reference may be made to the above description of Ri'.

By setting the value of b to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, each azide group in the first type of photosensitive material may be connected to a first ligand material molecule. Therefore, the first type of photosensitive material molecule containing azide groups with the number of b may achieve connection of quantum dot material (including the first quantum dot material, the second quantum dot material and the third quantum dot material) molecules with the number of b to form a cross-linked light-emitting material (including the first cross-linked light-emitting material, the second cross-linked light-emitting material and the third cross-linked light-emitting material).

However, a large value of c may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the first type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of c, the more reaction sites the first type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the first type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, c may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0387] The first type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (IV-C) contains a diazirine group. The first type of photosensitive material containing a diazirine group may be cross-linked with the first ligand material coordinated on the quantum dot body.

The solvents of the first solution, the fourth solution and the seventh solution are the first solvent, the fourth solvent and the seventh solvent respectively, and all three solvents belong to the first-type solvents. The setting of the first photosensitive material being selected from the general formula (IV-A), the general formula (IV-B) or the general formula (IV-C) may increase the solubility of the first type of photosensitive material in the first-type solvent (e.g., octane or propylene glycol methyl ether acetate), which is beneficial to the formation of the light-emitting pattern 23 (including the first light-emitting pattern 23a, the second light-emitting pattern 23b and the third light-emitting pattern 23c).

The following is an exemplary introduction to the structures of the second type of photosensitive materials and the cross-linked carrier transport materials (the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material).
[0399] In some embodiments, the second photosensitive material, the fifth photosensitive material and the eighth photosensitive material are the same or different, and are each independently selected from any of second type of photosensitive materials. The second type of photosensitive material includes a second photosensitive group, the second photosensitive group undergoes a cross-linking reaction with a carrier transport material under light radiation; and the carrier transport material is one of the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material. Moreover, the first photosensitive group and the second photosensitive group may be the same or different.
[0400] In some embodiments, any of the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material includes a carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH. The carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH is configured to undergo a carbon-hydrogen insertion reaction with the second type of photosensitive group under light radiation, where as shown in the following formula, T is an active intermediate free radical generated by the second type of photosensitive group under light radiation. In the carbon-hydrogen insertion group ZH, Z is any of primary carbon, secondary carbon and tertiary carbon. (T) + Z—H (T)— H
[0401] For example, the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material are hole transport materials, and are each configured to enhance a transport rate of holes in the light-emitting device and effectively block electrons within the light-emitting pattern, so as to achieve maximum recombination of carriers. In addition, an energy barrier of holes during injection may be reduced, an injection efficiency of holes may be improved, and the brightness, efficiency and service life of the device may be improved.
[0402] For example, the hole transport material may be a material containing a structural unit of triphenylamine, such as poly (N,N'-bis-4-butylphenyl-N,N'-bisphenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD) and poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-alt-N-(4-sec-butylphenyl)-diphenylamine) (TFB). Alternatively, the hole transport material may be a material containing a structural unit of 9,9'-spirobifluorene, such as 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(diphenylamino)-9,9'-spirobifluorene. Alternatively, the hole transport material may be polyvinyl carbazole (PVK).
[0403] For example, the carrier transport material contains a C-H bond, and the carrier transport material is cross-linked with the second type of photosensitive material through a carbon-hydrogen (C-H) insertion reaction. For convenience of representation, the carrier transport material may be represented by the following formula: H---C---(X)
[0404] Here, X represents a remaining structure of any of the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material after removing the C-H bond; and the C-H bond is used to undergo a cross-linking reaction with the second photosensitive group of the second type of photosensitive material under light radiation.
[0405] The C-H bond in the carrier transport material may be cross-linked with the second type of photosensitive material (the second photosensitive material, the fifth photosensitive material and the eighth photosensitive material) under light radiation. A specific introduction to the cross-linking reaction refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here.
[0406] In some embodiments, the second type of photosensitive material is selected from any of structures shown in the following general formula (V-A). second photosensitive group
[0407] Where a benzophenone group is the second photosensitive group.
[0408] L2 is selected from any of a single bond, an ester bond, an ether bond and a thioether bond.
[0409] Rg and R10 are the same or different, and are each independently selected from any of a hydrogen bond, a saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group with C1 to C40, a cycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, a heterocycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, an aryl group with C6 to C40, and a heteroaryl group with C6 to C4.
[0410] d is selected from positive integers greater than or equal to 2.
[0411] It will be noted that d represents the number of the corresponding groups. The value of d is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, that is, d may take a value of an integer of 2, 3, 4, or greater than 4.
[0412] If there are a lot of C atoms in R10, d may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of d may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the second type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of d, the more reaction sites the second type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the second type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, d may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0413] The second type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (V-A) contains a benzophenone group. The second type of photosensitive material containing a benzophenone group may be cross-linked with the carrier transport material. For example, benzophenone is photolyzed to form a triplet ketone intermediate (referring to the previous content for the structure) under light radiation (hv), and the C*-O* in the triplet ketone intermediate will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction.
[0414] In some embodiments, a reaction principle of the second type of photosensitive material and the carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material) is as shown in the following formula. The active intermediate free radical C*-O* (carbon-oxygen free radical) contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the second type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond nearby, that is, the C*-O" contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the second type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond in the carrier transport material, so that the C-H bond in the carrier transport material is broken.
[0415] After the C-H bond in the carrier transport material is broken, a carbon free radical (C*) and a hydrogen free radical (H‘) are formed. An oxygen free radical (O‘) in the second type of photosensitive material will attack the hydrogen free radical (H*) to form a hydrogen-oxygen bond (-OH), and a carbon free radical (C*) in the second type of photosensitive material will attack the carbon free radical (C*) in the carrier transport material to form a carbon-carbon bond, so that the second type of photosensitive material and the carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material) are cross-linked to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material). second type of photosensitive material carrier transport material carrier transport material i T F |
[0416] Here, "Q" represents a linking group connecting two benzophenone groups. The linking group includes, for example, Rw and at least two L2.
[0417] In some examples, any of the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material includes any of structures shown in the following general formula (ll-A).

[0419] For example, d takes a value of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, which is not limited here. By setting the value of d to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, each benzophenone group in the second type of photosensitive material may be connected to a carrier transport material molecule. Therefore, the second type of photosensitive material molecule containing benzophenone groups with the number of d may achieve connection of carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material) molecules with the number of d to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material).
[0420] In some examples, the second type of photosensitive material is selected from the following structural formula (1,2-ethanediyl bis(3-benzoylbenzoate)).
[0421] In some embodiments, the second type of photosensitive material is selected from any of structures shown in the following general formula (V-B). second photosensitive group (W)
[0422] Where an azide group is the second photosensitive group.
[0423] Rn is selected from any of a hydrogen bond, a saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group with C1 to C40, a cycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, a heterocycloalkyl group with C3 to C40, an aryl group with C6 to C40, and a heteroaryl group with C6 to C4.
[0424] e is selected from positive integers greater than or equal to 2.
[0425] It will be noted that e represents the number of the corresponding groups. The value of e is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, that is, e may take a value of an integer of 2, 3, 4, or greater than 4.
[0426] If there are a lot of C atoms in Rn, e may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of e may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the second type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of e, the more reaction sites the second type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the second type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, e may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0427] The second type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (V-B) contains an azide group. The second type of photosensitive material containing an azide group may be cross-linked with the carrier transport material. For example, the azide group is photolyzed to form an active intermediate free radical nitrene N • un(jer light radiation (hv), in which nitrene will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction.
[0428] For example, the second type of photosensitive material containing an azide group (-N3) and the C-H bond in the carrier transport material undergo a cross-linking reaction under light irradiation, and the cross-linking reaction is shown in the following formula. Here, e takes a value of 2, the second type of photosensitive material contains 2 azide groups (-N3), each azide group (-N3) will produce an active intermediate free radical nitrene, and each nitrene attacks a carrier transport material molecule. The second type of photosensitive material and the carrier transport material are cross-linked through a C-H insertion reaction to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material). The solubilities of the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material in the second-type solvent decrease, that is, the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material are each insoluble in a respective developer (e.g., the second solvent, the fifth solvent or the eighth solvent) during development.
[0429] In some examples, any of the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material includes any of structures shown in the following general formula (ll-B). ' H I Rn--N--C---(X) l J e (Il-B)
[0430] It will be noted that as for description of Rn, reference may be made to the above description of Rn. As for description of X, reference may be made to the above description of X. As for description of e, reference may be made to the above description of e. Details are not repeated here.
[0431] For example, e takes a value of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, which is not limited here. By setting the value of e to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, each azide group in the second type of photosensitive material may be connected to a carrier transport material molecule. Therefore, the second type of photosensitive material molecule containing azide groups with the number of e may achieve connection of carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material) molecules with the number of b to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material).

[0437] It will be noted that [represents the number of the corresponding groups. The value of f is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, that is, f may take a value of an integer of 2, 3, 4, or greater than 4.
[0438] If there are a lot of C atoms in R12, f may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of f may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the second type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value off, the more reaction sites the second type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the second type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, f may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.
[0439] The second type of photosensitive material having a structure as shown in the general formula (V-C) contains a diazirine group. The second type of photosensitive material containing a diazirine group may be cross-linked with the carrier transport material. For example, the diazirine group is photolyzed to form an • • active intermediate free radical carbene C under light radiation (hv), in which carbene will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction.

Here, f takes a value of 2, the second type of photosensitive material contains 2 diazirine groups, each diazirine group will produce a carbene, and each carbene attacks a carrier transport material molecule. The second type of photosensitive material and the carrier transport material are cross-linked through a C-H insertion reaction to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material). The solubilities of the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material in the second-type solvent decrease, that is, the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material are each insoluble in a respective developer (e.g., the second solvent, the fifth solvent or the eighth solvent) during development.

By setting the value of f to a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, each diazirine group in the second type of photosensitive material may be connected to a carrier transport material molecule. Therefore, the second type of photosensitive material molecule containing diazirine groups with the number of f may achieve connection of carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material) molecules with the number of b to form a cross-linked carrier transport material (including the first carrier transport material, the second carrier transport material and the third carrier transport material).

The solvents of the second solution, the fifth solution and the eighth solution are the second solvent, the fifth solvent and the eighth solvent respectively, and all three solvents belong to the second-type solvents. The setting of the second photosensitive material being selected from the general formula (V-A), the general formula (V-B) or the general formula (V-C) may increase the solubility of the second type of photosensitive material in the second-type solvent (e.g., toluene, chlorobenzene or (dichloromethyl)benzene), which is beneficial to the formation of the carrier transport layer (including the first carrier transport layer 131, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133).
[0450] The above is an exemplary introduction to the second type of photosensitive materials and the cross-linked carrier transport materials (the first cross-linked carrier transport material, the second cross-linked carrier transport material and the third cross-linked carrier transport material). The following is an exemplary introduction to the structures of the third type of photosensitive materials and the cross-linked carrier injection materials (the first cross-linked carrier injection material, the second cross-linked carrier injection material and the third cross-linked carrier injection material).

[0456] The C-H bond in the carrier injection material may be cross-linked with the third type of photosensitive material (the third photosensitive material, the sixth photosensitive material and the ninth photosensitive material) under light radiation. A specific introduction to the cross-linking reaction refers to subsequent contents and is not described in detail here.
[0457] In some embodiments, the third photosensitive group is a benzophenone group, and the third type of photosensitive material containing a benzophenone group may be cross-linked with the carrier injection material. For example, benzophenone is photolyzed to form a triplet ketone intermediate (referring to the previous content for the structure) under light radiation (hv), and the C*-O* in the triplet ketone intermediate will attack a C-H bond nearby to undergo a cross-linking reaction.
[0458] In some embodiments, a reaction principle of the third type of photosensitive material and the carrier injection material (including the first carrier injection material, the second carrier injection material and the third carrier injection material) is as shown in the following formula. The active intermediate free radical C*-O* (carbon-oxygen free radical) contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the third type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond nearby, that is, the C’-O* contained in the triplet ketone intermediate in the third type of photosensitive material attacks the C-H bond in the carrier injection material, so that the C-H bond in the carrier injection material is broken.

[0469] If there are a lot of C atoms in R15, g may take a large value, for example, a positive integer greater than 6. However, a large value of g may lead to difficulties in synthesis and purification during preparation of the third type of photosensitive material. However, in theory, the larger the value of g, the more reaction sites the third type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the third type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance.

However, in theory, the larger the value of h, the more reaction sites the third type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the third type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, h may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.

Here, the third type of photosensitive material contains at least two azide groups (-N3), each azide group (-N3) will produce a nitrene, and each nitrene attacks a carrier injection material molecule. The third type of photosensitive material and the carrier injection material are cross-linked through a C-H insertion reaction to form a cross-linked carrier injection material (including the first cross-linked carrier injection material, the second cross-linked carrier injection material and the third cross-linked carrier injection material). The solubilities of the first cross-linked carrier injection material, the second cross-linked carrier injection material and the third cross-linked carrier injection material in the third-type solvent decrease, that is, the first cross-linked carrier injection material, the second cross-linked carrier injection material and the third cross-linked carrier injection material are each insoluble in a respective developer (e.g., the third solvent, the sixth solvent or the ninth solvent) during development.

However, in theory, the larger the value of j, the more reaction sites the third type of photosensitive material has. In addition, a large number of reaction sites of the third type of photosensitive material will increase molecular steric hindrance. Therefore, j may take a value of a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 6.

[0537] In some examples, the third type of photosensitive material is selected from the following structural formula (Fast Blue B Salt (FBBS)).
[0538] In some examples, a reaction equation between the third type of photosensitive material and the carrier injection material is shown in equation (X-1).
[0540] It can be understood that as described in the method for forming the first light-emitting device 201, the second light-emitting device 202 and the third light-emitting device 203, the carrier material injection material and the third type of photosensitive material are applied by coating or printing after being dissolved in the third solution, the sixth solution or the ninth solution. The solvents of the third solution, the sixth solution and the ninth solution are the third solvent, the sixth solvent and the ninth solvent respectively, and all three solvents belong to the third-type solvents. The setting of the third type of photosensitive material being selected from the general formula (Vl-A), the general formula (Vl-B), the general formula (Vl-C), the general formula (Vl-D), the general formula (Vl-E) or the general formula (Vl-F) makes the third type of photosensitive material an ionic material (such as a water-soluble organic salt). In this way, the solubility of the third type of photosensitive material in the third-type solvent (e.g., water, ethanol, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylformamide and thionyl chloride) may increase, which is beneficial to the formation of the carrier injection layer (including the first carrier injection layer 141, the second carrier injection layer 142 and the third carrier injection layer 143). In addition, since the carrier transport layer (including the first carrier transport layer 131, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133) adjacent to the carrier injection layer is prepared using the second-type solvent, the above setting makes the solubility of the third type of photosensitive material in the third-type solvent greater than the solubility thereof in the second-type solvent (including the second solvent, the fifth solvent and the eighth solvent). Thus, when the first light-emitting device 201, the second light-emitting device 202 and the third light-emitting device 203 are formed, the third type of photosensitive material is not easily transferred from the initial carrier injection layer (including the first initial carrier injection layer 141 i, the second initial carrier injection layer 142i and the third initial carrier injection layer 143i) to the initial carrier transport layer (including the first initial carrier transport layer 131 i, the second initial carrier transport layer 132i and the third initial carrier transport layer 133i).

[0542] It can be understood that as described in the method for forming the first light-emitting device 201, the second light-emitting device 202 and the third light-emitting device 203, the quantum dot material and the first type of photosensitive material are applied by coating or printing after being dissolved in the first solution, the fourth solution or the seventh solution. The solvents of the first solution, the fourth solution and the seventh solution are the first solvent, the fourth solvent and the seventh solvent respectively, and all three solvents belong to the first-type solvents. The setting of Rs, Re and R7 being each selected from any of a C1 to C30 saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group, a C1 to C30 saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced by a fluorine atom, and a C10 to C30 saturated or unsaturated straight or branched alkyl group containing at least one ether bond may increase polarities of Rs, Rs and R? and increase a polarity of the first type of photosensitive material. In this way, the solubility of the first type of photosensitive material in the first-type solvent (e.g., octane or propylene glycol methyl ether acetate) may increase, which is beneficial to the formation of the light-emitting pattern 23 (including the first light-emitting pattern 23a, the second light-emitting pattern 23b and the third light-emitting pattern 23c). In addition, since the carrier transport layer (including the first carrier transport layer 131, the second carrier transport layer 132 and the third carrier transport layer 133) adjacent to the light-emitting pattern 23 is prepared using the second-type solvent, the above setting makes the solubility of the first type of photosensitive material in the first-type solvent greater than the solubility thereof in the second-type solvent (including the second solvent, the fifth solvent and the eighth solvent). Thus, when the firs...
