[0051] Details

[0052] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments can be implemented in a variety of different forms. A person skilled in the art can easily understand that the method and content can be transformed into one or more forms without departing from the purpose and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other in any way.

[0053] In the drawings, the size of one or more components, layer thicknesses, or regions may be exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, one embodiment of the present disclosure is not necessarily limited to these dimensions, and the shapes and sizes of one or more components in the drawings do not reflect true proportions. Furthermore, the drawings schematically illustrate idealized examples, and one embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values ​​shown in the drawings.

[0054] The ordinal numbers such as "first," "second," and "third" in this disclosure are provided to avoid confusion among constituent elements, and are not intended to limit the number. The "plurality" in this disclosure includes two or more.

[0055] In this disclosure, for convenience, words and phrases indicating orientation or positional relationships, such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inside," and "outside," are used to illustrate the positional relationships of constituent elements with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is merely for the convenience of describing this specification and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as a limitation of this disclosure. The positional relationships of constituent elements are appropriately changed according to the direction in which the constituent elements are described. Therefore, the words and phrases are not limited to those described in the specification and can be appropriately replaced according to the circumstances.

[0056] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through intermediaries, or internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the meaning of these terms in this disclosure based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] In this disclosure, "electrically connected" includes components connected together via an element having some electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "element having some electrical function" as long as it enables transmission of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "element having some electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other elements having one or more functions.

[0058] In this disclosure, a transistor refers to a device comprising at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between a drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain) and a source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. In this disclosure, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.

[0059] In the present disclosure, the first electrode may be a drain electrode and the second electrode may be a source electrode, or vice versa. The functions of "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may be interchanged when using transistors with opposite polarity or when the direction of current changes during circuit operation. Therefore, in the present disclosure, "source electrode" and "drain electrode" may be interchanged.

[0060] In this disclosure, "parallel" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than -10° and less than 10°, and thus includes a state where the angle is greater than -5° and less than 5°. Furthermore, "perpendicular" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than 80° and less than 100°, and thus includes a state where the angle is greater than 85° and less than 95°.

[0061] In this disclosure, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may be replaced with "insulating layer."

[0062] In the present disclosure, “about” and “approximately” refer to values ​​that are not strictly defined and allow for process and measurement errors.

[0063] The triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons in the present disclosure are not in the strict sense, but may be approximate triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons, etc. There may be some small deformations caused by tolerances, and there may be chamfers, arc edges and deformations.

[0064] The top-emitting microcavity OLED display device mainly realizes the full-color display effect through the micro-resonant cavity effect. The micro-resonant cavity effect refers to the optical interference effect that occurs inside the OLED device. To realize the micro-resonant cavity effect, it is necessary to make a semi-transparent and semi-reflective half-mirror at the light output of the device. When the photons are emitted from the light-emitting layer, they will interfere with each other between the emitting anode and the half-mirror, resulting in light interference. Only certain wavelengths of light will be enhanced, and some light will be weakened, so the half-width of the light wave will also be narrowed. The microcavity structure is generally divided into a weak microcavity structure and a strong microcavity structure. In the weak microcavity structure, the cavity lengths of different sub-pixels are equal, so the weak microcavity structure cannot maximize the use of the micro-resonant cavity effect to improve the light efficiency. In the strong microcavity structure, the cavity lengths of different sub-pixels are not equal. The use of the micro-resonant cavity effect can improve the light efficiency by about 3 times. There are two main ways to realize the strong microcavity structure. One is to thicken the electrode and the other is to set an adjustment layer. The material of the electrode is usually indium tin oxide (ITO), and the material of the adjustment layer is usually silicon oxide (SiO x As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the curve marked ① represents the test curve of indium tin oxide (ITO), and the curve marked ② represents the test curve of silicon oxide (SiO x ) test curve, the refractive index and extinction coefficient of indium tin oxide (ITO) are higher than those of silicon oxide (SiO x ) has a large refractive index and extinction coefficient, so the use of thickened electrodes has a greater impact on the microcavity sensitive device (B Stack), which will cause a certain proportion of blue light loss and affect the maximum white light brightness.

[0065] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display substrate, comprising a base substrate and a light-emitting structure layer located on one side of the base substrate, wherein the light-emitting structure layer comprises a reflective layer and a light-emitting composite layer stacked in sequence in a direction away from the base substrate, the reflective layer having a plurality of first via holes, and the light-emitting composite layer comprising a first light-emitting device, a second light-emitting device, and a third light-emitting device arranged in sequence;

[0066] The light-emitting structure layer also includes a first conductive structure, and the first conductive structure is located between the light-emitting composite layer and the base substrate, and the first light-emitting device is in contact with at least a portion of the surface of the first conductive structure away from the base substrate; at least a portion of the first conductive structure is located within the first via hole; along the thickness direction of the display substrate, the first conductive structure includes at least two segments, the orthographic projection of the segment close to the light-emitting composite layer on the plane where the display substrate is located is located within the orthographic projection of the segment adjacent to the segment and away from the light-emitting composite layer on the plane where the display substrate is located, and the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the segment close to the light-emitting composite layer on the plane where the display substrate is located is smaller than the area of ​​the orthographic projection of the segment adjacent to the segment and away from the light-emitting composite layer on the plane where the display substrate is located.

[0067] The display substrate provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, by designing the first conductive structure with a variable cross-section, is advantageously used to increase the spacing between the section of the first conductive structure close to the light-emitting composite layer and the anode of the second light-emitting device, thereby avoiding electrical crosstalk between the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device, and improving the reliability of the electrical connection of the display substrate.

In an exemplary embodiment, the timing controller may provide grayscale values ​​and control signals suitable for the data driver's specifications to the data driver, and may provide clock signals, scan start signals, and other signals suitable for the scan driver's specifications to the scan driver. The data driver may use the grayscale values ​​and control signals received from the timing controller to generate data voltages to be supplied to the data signal lines D1, D2, D3, ..., and Dn. For example, the data driver may sample grayscale values ​​using a clock signal and apply data voltages corresponding to the grayscale values ​​to the data signal lines D1 to Dn on a pixel column basis, where n may be a natural number. The scan driver may generate scan signals to be supplied to the scan signal lines S1, S2, S3, ..., and Sm by receiving clock signals, scan start signals, and other signals from the timing controller. For example, the scan driver may sequentially supply scan signals having on-level pulses to the scan signal lines S1 to Sm. For example, the scan driver may be configured as a shift register and may generate scan signals by sequentially transmitting the scan start signals provided in the form of on-level pulses to the next stage circuit under the control of a clock signal, where m may be a natural number.

[0083] In an exemplary embodiment, the reflective layer 305 may be made of a metal material, such as any one or more of molybdenum (Mo), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), and titanium (Ti). Alternatively, the reflective layer 305 may be made of an alloy of metal materials such as molybdenum (Mo), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), and titanium (Ti), such as aluminum-neodymium (AlNd), molybdenum-niobium (MoNb), or molybdenum-nickel-titanium (MoNiTi). The reflective layer 305 may have a single-layer structure or a multi-layer composite structure, such as Ti / Al / Ti, Mo / Nb / Cu, MoNiTi / Cu, MoNb / Cu / MoNiTi, or MoNiTi / Cu / MoNiTi.

[0084] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6A , the display substrate may further include multiple conductive structures. At least portions of the multiple conductive structures may be located within the first via hole K1, and the conductive structures may be configured to connect the light-emitting devices of the corresponding sub-pixels to the connection electrodes. The multiple conductive structures may include a first conductive structure 111, a second conductive structure 112, and a third conductive structure 113. As shown in FIG6A , the first light-emitting device 301 may be connected to the first connection electrode 202-1 via the first conductive structure 111, the second light-emitting device 302 may be connected to the second connection electrode 202-2 via the second conductive structure 112, and the third light-emitting device 303 may be connected to the third connection electrode 202-3 via the third conductive structure 113.

Alternatively, the entire second conductive structure 112 may be located within the first via hole K1 . For example, the entire third conductive structure 113 may be located within the first via hole K1 .

[0085] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6A , the microcavity adjustment layer 306 may include multiple adjustment sections, each of which may include at least a first adjustment section 306-1, a second adjustment section 306-2, and a third adjustment section 306-3. The thicknesses of the first adjustment section 306-1, the second adjustment section 306-2, and the third adjustment section 306-3 are all different. In the disclosed embodiment, the thickness direction is perpendicular to the plane of the display substrate. As shown in FIG6A , the first adjustment section 306-1 has a first thickness h1, the second adjustment section 306-2 has a second thickness h2, and the third adjustment section 306-3 has a third thickness h3, with h1 being greater than h2, and h2 being greater than h3. In the disclosed embodiment, by providing adjustment sections with different thicknesses, the microcavity structures formed by the three sub-pixels can have different microcavity lengths. In the disclosed embodiment, the microcavity length refers to the distance of the optical resonant cavity between the cathode and the reflective layer of the sub-pixel.

[0086] As shown in Figure 6A, the first subpixel P1 has a first microcavity length H1, the second subpixel P2 has a second microcavity length H2, and the third subpixel P3 has a third microcavity length H3, with H1 being greater than H2, and H2 being greater than H3. The display substrate provided by the disclosed embodiments can utilize a strong microcavity effect to enhance the light emitted by the organic light-emitting layer of each subpixel near the resonant wavelength of the microcavity length and broaden its spectrum, while weakening the light at other wavelengths not corresponding to the resonant wavelength and narrowing its spectrum. This results in the light-emitting structure layer in the first subpixel P1 primarily emitting light of the first color, the light-emitting structure layer in the second subpixel P2 primarily emitting light of the second color, and the light-emitting structure layer in the third subpixel P3 primarily emitting light of the third color. Because the color of light emitted by the light-emitting structure layer in each subpixel is the same as the color of light allowed to pass through the color filter of that subpixel, the light energy loss caused by light passing through the color filter can be minimized, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the display substrate and enhancing the display quality of the display product.

[0087] In one exemplary embodiment, the thickness of the first adjustment portion 306-1 can range from 1300 angstroms to 1700 angstroms, and the thickness of the second adjustment portion 306-2 can range from 1200 angstroms to 1600 angstroms. The thickness of the third adjustment portion 306-3 can range from 200 angstroms to 600 angstroms. By limiting the thickness ranges of the first, second, and third adjustment portions, large thickness steps in the microcavity adjustment layer can be avoided, as can steep slopes in the anode layer of the light-emitting structure layer, thereby improving the reliability of the light-emitting device. By limiting the thickness range of the third adjustment portion, parasitic capacitance between the third light-emitting device and the reflective layer can be avoided, thereby improving the luminous performance of the third light-emitting device.

[0088] In an exemplary embodiment, the light-emitting structure layer 103 may further include a light-emitting composite layer 307 and a pixel definition layer 308 located on the side of the microcavity adjustment layer 306 away from the base substrate 101. The light-emitting composite layer 307 may include multiple light-emitting devices, and the pixel definition layer 308 has multiple opening areas. The pixel definition layer 308 may include multiple partitions 308a, and the partitions 308a are arranged around the opening areas. The light emitted by the light-emitting devices can be emitted through the corresponding opening areas. The detailed structure of the partitions 308a can be found in the description of Figure 6B. The light-emitting composite layer 307 may include an anode layer, an organic light-emitting layer, and a cathode layer arranged in sequence along a direction away from the base substrate 101. The organic light-emitting layer can emit light under the drive of the anode layer and the cathode layer.

[0089] In one exemplary embodiment, the anode layer may be made of a transparent conductive oxide material, which may include indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO). The anode layer may be a single layer structure or a multilayer composite structure, such as ITO / Al / ITO. The thickness of the anode layer may range from 120 angstroms to 200 angstroms.

[0090] Figure 6B is a partially enlarged schematic diagram of the area marked A in Figure 6A. As shown in Figure 6B, the first conductive structure 111 may include a first segment 111-1 and a second segment 111-2 connected to each other. In Figure 6B, the first segment 111-1 is not colored to facilitate identification. The first segment 111-1 is located within the first via K1, and the second segment 111-2 is located within the second via K2. The orthographic projection of the second segment 111-2 on the plane of the display substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the first segment 111-1 on the plane of the display substrate, and the orthographic projection area of ​​the second segment 111-2 on the plane of the display substrate is smaller than the orthographic projection area of ​​the first segment 111-1 on the plane of the display substrate. The first conductive structure 111 is designed as a combination of a first segment 111-1 and a second segment 111-2, and an orthographic projection relationship is defined between the first segment 111-1 and the second segment 111-2. During the display substrate manufacturing process, a via hole for accommodating the first conductive structure 111 can be formed using a yellow light overlay process, ensuring high dimensional accuracy of the via hole. For example, the first segment 111-1 can be a cylinder, and the second segment 111-2 can be a cylinder.

[0091] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the first light-emitting device 301 may include a first electrode 301-1, a first organic light-emitting layer 301-3, and a second electrode 301-2. The first electrode 301-1 is located in the anode layer, the first organic light-emitting layer 301-3 is located in the organic light-emitting layer, and the second electrode 301-2 is located in the cathode layer. The first electrode 301-1 may be connected to the second electrode of the transistor via a first connecting electrode, the first organic light-emitting layer 301-3 is connected to the first electrode 301-1, and the second electrode 301-2 is connected to the first organic light-emitting layer 301-3. The second electrode 301-2 may be connected to a second power line. The first organic light-emitting layer 301-3 emits light when driven by the first and second electrodes 301-1 and 301-2. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second power line is configured to continuously provide a low-level signal to the light-emitting device. The first electrode 301-1 may be the anode of the first light-emitting device 301, and the second electrode 301-2 may be the cathode of the first light-emitting device 301.

[0092] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , at least a portion of the first electrode 301-1 may be located on a side of the microcavity adjustment layer 306 away from the reflective layer 305. For example, the entire first electrode 301-1 may be located on a side of the microcavity adjustment layer 306 away from the reflective layer 305. Alternatively, a portion of the first electrode 301-1 may be located on a side of the microcavity adjustment layer 306 away from the reflective layer 305, and the remaining portion of the first electrode 301-1 may be located within the second via hole K2, with the remaining portion of the first electrode 301-1 along the thickness direction of the display substrate not exceeding 50% of the depth of the second via hole K2. In the disclosed embodiment, by limiting the depth of the first electrode 301-1 within the second via hole K2 (the dimension along the thickness direction of the display substrate), the impedance of the first electrode due to slope reduction can be reduced, thereby reducing the power consumption of the light-emitting device and improving the overall performance of the display product.

[0093] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the first electrode 301-1 may include a first portion 301a, a second portion 301b, and a third portion 301c that are connected. The first portion 301a and the third portion 301c may both be located on the side of the microcavity adjustment layer 306 away from the reflective layer 305. The second portion 301b may be located within the second via hole K2, with the edge of the orthographic projection of the second portion 301b onto the plane of the display substrate coinciding with the edge of the orthographic projection of the second via hole K2 onto the plane of the display substrate. As shown in FIG6B , along the aperture direction of the second via hole K2, the thickness of the second portion 301b may range from greater than or equal to 30% of the thickness of the first portion 301a and less than or equal to the thickness of the first portion 301a. For example, the thickness of the first portion 301a may be 200 angstroms, the thickness of the second portion 301b may be 60 angstroms, or the thickness of the first portion 301a may be 100 angstroms. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by limiting the thickness difference between the first portion 301a and the second portion 301b, the overall impedance of the first electrode 301-1 in the second via hole K2 region can be reduced, thereby improving the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting device.

[0094] As shown in Figure 6B, the second via K2 has a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite each other. The first end is farther away from the reflective layer 305 than the second end, and the aperture of the first end is the same as the aperture of the second end. The second via K2 can be produced using a semi-back etching method, which can eliminate the need for a yellow light overlay step. Yellow light overlay requires that the upper layer aperture is smaller than the lower layer aperture to ensure overlay accuracy. Adding a yellow light overlay step will increase the aperture of the first via K1 by 0.04 to 0.1 microns. Therefore, by making the aperture of the first and second ends of the second via K2 the same, the aperture of the first via K1 can be reduced.

[0095] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the second light-emitting device 302 may include a third electrode 302-3, a second organic light-emitting layer 302-5, and a fourth electrode 302-4. The third electrode 302-3 is located in the anode layer, the second organic light-emitting layer 302-5 is located in the organic light-emitting layer, and the fourth electrode 302-4 is located in the cathode layer. The third electrode 302-3 may be connected to the second electrode of the transistor via a second connecting electrode, the second organic light-emitting layer 302-5 is connected to the third electrode 302-3, and the fourth electrode 302-4 is connected to the second organic light-emitting layer 302-5. The fourth electrode 302-4 may be connected to a second power line. The second organic light-emitting layer 302-5 emits light when driven by the third electrode 302-3 and the fourth electrode 302-4. The third electrode 302-3 may be the anode of the second light-emitting device 302, and the fourth electrode 302-4 may be the cathode of the second light-emitting device 302.

[0096] In one exemplary embodiment, the third light-emitting device 303 may include a fifth electrode, a third organic light-emitting layer, and a sixth electrode. The fifth electrode is located in the anode layer, the third organic light-emitting layer is located in the organic light-emitting layer, and the sixth electrode is located in the cathode layer. The fifth electrode may be connected to the second electrode of the transistor via a third connecting electrode, the third organic light-emitting layer is connected to the fifth electrode, and the sixth electrode is connected to the third organic light-emitting layer. The sixth electrode may be connected to a second power line. The third organic light-emitting layer emits light when driven by the fifth and sixth electrodes. The fifth electrode may be the anode of the third light-emitting device 303, and the sixth electrode may be the cathode of the third light-emitting device 303. The cathodes of the first light-emitting device 301, the second light-emitting device 302, and the third light-emitting device 303 may be interconnected and integrated. In the disclosed embodiment, the coordination between the third and fifth electrodes and the second via hole can be similar to the coordination between the first electrode and the second via hole, and will not be further described here. In the disclosed embodiment, the third conductive structure and the second conductive structure can be designed similarly to the first conductive structure, and will not be further described here.

[0097] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the pixel definition layer may include a plurality of partitions 308a. The structures of the plurality of partitions 308a may be the same or different, as shown in FIG6B , taking the structure of one of the partitions as an example. The partition 308a may include a plurality of film layers, and the plurality of film layers may include a first sublayer 308-1, a second sublayer 308-2, and a third sublayer 308-3 that are sequentially arranged in a direction away from the reflective layer 305, the orthographic projection of the second sublayer 308-2 on the plane where the display substrate is located may be located within the orthographic projection of the first sublayer 308-1 on the plane where the display substrate is located, and the orthographic projection area of ​​the second sublayer 308-2 on the plane where the display substrate is located is smaller than the orthographic projection area of ​​the first sublayer 308-1 on the plane where the display substrate is located, and the orthographic projection of the third sublayer 308-3 on the plane where the display substrate is located includes the orthographic projection of the second sublayer 308-2 ... The orthographic projection area of ​​8-3 on the plane where the display substrate is located is larger than the orthographic projection area of ​​the second sub-layer 308-2 on the plane where the display substrate is located, and the orthographic projection of the third sub-layer 308-3 on the plane where the display substrate is located is located within the orthographic projection of the first sub-layer 308-1 on the plane where the display substrate is located. As shown in Figure 6B, the multiple film layers of the partition 308a form an undercut structure, which can reduce the size of the partition, improve the aperture ratio of the display substrate, and is conducive to the disconnection of the organic light-emitting layer at the partition, which can avoid crosstalk between adjacent sub-pixels and improve the display quality of the display product. The partition with an undercut structure can avoid the problem of cathode puncture or breakage caused by deformation of its edge.

[0098] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6B , the materials of the first sub-layer 308 - 1 and the third sub-layer 308 - 3 may include silicon oxide (SiO x ), for example, the silicon oxide may be silicon oxide. The material of the second sub-layer 308-2 may include silicon nitride (SiN x In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the second sub-layer 308-2 is designed to be different from the materials of the first sub-layer 308-1 and the third sub-layer 308-3 so that the partition portion is conducive to forming an undercut structure.

[0099] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the reflective layer 305 may have a plurality of first via holes K1, each having a maximum aperture of d1, which may range from 0.5 μm to 0.7 μm. For example, the first via holes K1 may be circular, rectangular, or elliptical. The microcavity adjustment layer 306 may have a plurality of second via holes K2, each having a maximum aperture of d2, which is smaller than d1, and which may range from 0.3 μm to 0.5 μm. The central axis of the second via hole K2 along its length is collinear or parallel to the central axis of the first via hole K1 along its length.

[0100] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the light-emitting structure layer 103 may further include an isolation layer 309, which is located within the first via hole K1 and is disposed around the first segment 111 - 1. The orthographic projection of the isolation layer 309 on the plane where the display substrate is located may be annular, and the ring width of the isolation layer 309 may range from 0.2 μm to 0.3 μm, thereby ensuring that no induced capacitance is generated in the first via hole region and that the sub-pixel has a larger opening area.

[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, the first adjustment portion 306-1 has a first thickness h1, the second adjustment portion 306-2 has a second thickness h2, and the third adjustment portion 306-3 has a third thickness h3, and h1 is greater than h2, and h2 is greater than h3, and the third thickness h3 is greater than the maximum ring width of the isolation layer 309. Such a design can reduce the parasitic capacitance between the conductive structure and the reflective layer, and can improve the display quality of the display device.

[0102] In an exemplary embodiment, the material of the isolation layer 309 may be an inorganic material or an organic material. The inorganic material is, for example, silicon oxynitride (SiO x N y ) or silicon nitride (SiN x ) or silicon oxide (SiO x ) etc. Organic materials, for example, any one or more of epoxy resin, phenolic resin, urea-formaldehyde resin, melamine-formaldehyde resin, furan resin, silicone resin, polyester resin, polyamide resin, acrylic resin, polyurethane, vinyl resin, hydrocarbon resin, polyether resin, etc.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the orthographic projection of the first segment 111 - 1 on the plane where the display substrate is located may be a circle, and the first diameter of the first segment 111 - 1 is d3, then the difference between d3 and d2 may be greater than or equal to 0.04 microns and less than or equal to 0.1 microns, and d3 is greater than d2.

[0104] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the orthographic projection of the first portion 301a of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane of the display substrate and the orthographic projection of the separator 308a on the plane of the display substrate form a first overlapping region. The length of the first overlapping region is denoted as d4, and d4 can range from 0.25 microns to 0.45 microns. In the disclosed embodiment, by limiting the length d4 of the first overlapping region, the luminous efficiency of the first light-emitting device can be improved. The separator 308a can also protect the edge of the first electrode 301-1, preventing water and oxygen from invading the first light-emitting device through the edge of the first electrode 301-1, thereby improving the reliability of the first light-emitting device.

[0105] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the orthographic projection of the third portion 301c of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane of the display substrate and the orthographic projection of the separator 308a on the plane of the display substrate form a second overlapping region. The length of the second overlapping region is denoted as d5, and d5 can range from 0.04 microns to 0.1 microns. In the disclosed embodiment, limiting the length d5 ​​of the second overlapping region can prevent water and oxygen from invading the first conductive structure through the edge of the third portion 301c, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical connection of the first conductive structure.

[0106] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , a gap d6 exists between the orthographic projection of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane of the display substrate and the orthographic projection of the third electrode 302-3 on the plane of the display substrate. The gap d6 can range from 0.2 microns to 0.5 microns. In the disclosed embodiment, by limiting the gap d6 between the first electrode 301-1 and the third electrode 302-3, electrical connection between the first and second light-emitting devices can be avoided, enabling independent control of the first and second light-emitting devices, thereby improving the control accuracy of the display product.

[0107] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , a gap d6 exists between the orthographic projection of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane of the display substrate and the orthographic projection of the third electrode 302-3 on the plane of the display substrate. This gap d6 can be greater than the difference between the diameters of the first via K1 and the second via K2. By reserving a sufficient gap d6, process precision requirements can be lowered, reducing the manufacturing cost of the display device. Generally, due to the supply relationships of the various components of the display substrate, the light-emitting device and the conductive structure are manufactured by different manufacturers. Due to differences in manufacturing precision between manufacturers, the precision of the light-emitting device is often lower than that of the conductive structure. Therefore, reserving a sufficient gap d6 can ensure process feasibility and reduce the manufacturing cost of the display device. In one exemplary embodiment, the edge of the third portion 301c on the orthographic projection of the display substrate plane, which is adjacent to the second light-emitting device, can be located within the orthographic projection of the isolation layer 309 on the plane of the display substrate. This can increase the gap d6 and reduce signal crosstalk between two adjacent sub-pixels.

[0108] In one exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the orthographic projection of the third electrode 302-3 on the plane of the display substrate and the orthographic projection of the separator 308a on the plane of the display substrate form a third overlapping region. The length of the third overlapping region is designated d7, and d7 can range from 0.6 microns to 1.0 microns. In the disclosed embodiment, limiting the length d7 of the third overlapping region improves the luminous efficiency of the second light-emitting device. Furthermore, the separator 308a protects the edge of the third electrode 302-3, preventing water and oxygen from intruding into the second light-emitting device through the edge of the third electrode 302-3, thereby improving the reliability of the second light-emitting device.

[0109] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG6B , the orthographic projection of the partition 308a on the plane where the display substrate is located may include the orthographic projection of the first via K1 on the plane where the display substrate is located. For example, the orthographic projection of the partition 308a on the plane where the display substrate is located is larger than the orthographic projection of the first via K1 on the plane where the display substrate is located. This can avoid the occupation of the area of ​​the light-emitting region of the light-emitting device by setting the first via K1. For a single light-emitting device, a full-surface reflective layer design can be implemented, which can improve the light extraction efficiency of a single sub-pixel and the overall aperture ratio of the display substrate. By using the display substrate provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the aperture ratio of the display substrate can be greater than 65%.

[0110] Figure 6C is an enlarged schematic diagram of a partial cross-section of a display substrate according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 6C, the orthographic projection of the third portion 301c of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane of the display substrate can be located within the orthographic projection of the first adjustment portion 306-1 on the plane of the display substrate, and the orthographic projection of the third electrode 302-3 on the plane of the display substrate can be located within the orthographic projection of the second adjustment portion 306-2 on the plane of the display substrate. Based on the presence of a gap d6 between the orthographic projection of the first electrode 301-1 and the orthographic projection of the third electrode 302-3 on the plane of the display substrate, and because the thickness of the first adjustment portion 306-1 is greater than the thickness of the second adjustment portion 306-2, a gap exists between the third portion 301c and the third electrode 302-3 along the thickness direction of the display substrate, further reducing the risk of crosstalk between adjacent sub-pixels.

[0111] FIG7 is a second schematic diagram of a partial cross-sectional structure of a display substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The cutting position of the cross-sectional schematic diagram shown in FIG7 does not pass through the first via hole and the second via hole. In contrast, the cutting position of the cross-sectional schematic diagram shown in FIG6A passes through the first via hole and the second via hole. As shown in FIG7 , there is an overlapping area between the orthographic projection of the first electrode 301-1 on the plane where the display substrate is located and the orthographic projection of the partition 308a on the plane where the display substrate is located. The length of the overlapping area is marked as d8, and the range of d8 can be 0.6 microns to 1.0 microns. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by limiting the length d8 of the overlapping area, it is possible to prevent water and oxygen from invading the first light-emitting device through the edge of the first electrode 301-1, thereby improving the reliability of the first light-emitting device. For example, d8 can be equal to the sum of d4, d2, and d5.

This design allows the light-emitting device corresponding to the sub-pixel with the smallest microcavity length to be directly connected to the surface of the first segment 111-1 on the side away from the substrate 101, thereby saving process steps and reducing manufacturing costs. In the preparation method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first conductive structure, the second conductive structure, and the third conductive structure having the same partial structures located within the first via K1 are used as an example.

The second via K2 can be fabricated using a semi-back etching process, which eliminates the need for a single-layer overlay process. Overlay requires that the upper layer aperture be smaller than the lower layer aperture to ensure overlay accuracy. Adding a single overlay process increases the aperture of the first via K1 by 0.04 to 0.1 microns. Therefore, by making the aperture of the first end K11 the same as the aperture of the second end K12, the aperture of the first via K1 can be reduced.
