[0042] FIG. 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, specific embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0044] For a display panel, the polarizer-Less (POL-Less) technology refers to a technology of replacing a traditional polarizer in the display panel with a color film or a color filter, which has the advantages of improving the light transmittance of the display panel, reducing the working power consumption of the display panel, and making the display panel thinner.

[0045] Currently, common POL-Less technologies include a technology of integrating a color filter (CF) in a color encapsulation layer (color on encapsulation, COE). A display panel using the COE technology can be referred to as a COE panel. The COE panel generally includes a substrate, and a pixel circuit layer, a pixel defining layer, an encapsulation layer and a black matrix layer which are sequentially stacked on one side of the substrate. The pixel defining layer is used to separate light emitting elements of different colors. The black matrix layer is used to separate CFs corresponding to the light emitting elements of different colors. The pixel circuit layer is used to drive the light emitting elements to emit light, and the light emitted by the light emitting elements can be filtered by the color CF and then emitted, so that the COE panel displays a color picture.

[0046] In order to further improve the light extraction efficiency of the display panel, a flat layer with a low refractive index and a color filter with a high refractive index are used to form a total reflection interface on the light extraction side of the display panel, so that the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element is totally reflected at the total reflection interface, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency; however, the color filter includes filter units of different colors, and the refractive indices of the filter units of different colors are different, which may cause the light extraction efficiencies of the light of different colors to be different, and affect the uniformity of light extraction.

[0047] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display panel and a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device, which can improve the light extraction efficiency of the display device at a normal viewing angle.

[0048] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display panel, comprising:

[0049] a substrate substrate;

[0050] a pixel circuit layer, a black pixel defining layer, an encapsulation layer and a flat layer which are sequentially stacked on one side of the substrate substrate in a direction away from the substrate substrate, the black pixel defining layer has a plurality of first openings, the flat layer has a plurality of second openings, the plurality of first openings and the plurality of second openings are arranged in pairs in a direction parallel to the bearing surface of the substrate substrate, and correspond one by one;

[0051] a light emitting element located in each of the first openings;

[0052] a filter unit located in each of the second openings, the color of the filter unit in each of the second openings is the same as that of the light emitting element in the corresponding first opening;

[0053] wherein the refractive index of the flat layer is less than that of the filter unit, and the distances between the filter units with different refractive indices and the light emitting element are different.

[0054] In the present embodiment, the distances between the filter units with different refractive indices and the light emitting element are different, and the filter units with different refractive indices and the flat layer cooperate with each other, and the efficiency of total reflection is different. In this way, by adjusting the distance between the filter unit and the flat layer, the total reflection efficiency of light of different colors can be adjusted, the light extraction efficiency of the display device at a normal viewing angle can be improved, and the uniformity of light extraction of the display device can be improved.

[0055] In some embodiments, the light filtering unit comprises a first light filtering unit and a second light filtering unit with different colors, the refractive index of the first light filtering unit is greater than the refractive index of the second light filtering unit, so that the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element is more likely to be totally reflected at the interface between the first light filtering unit and the flat layer. In order to balance the light emitting efficiency, the distance between the first light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located is set to be less than the distance between the second light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located, so that the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the second light filtering unit and the flat layer is improved, and the case that the light emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the first light filtering unit and the second light filtering unit is avoided. The above-mentioned distance is a vertical distance.

[0056] In some embodiments, the light filtering unit further comprises a third light filtering unit, the refractive index of the third light filtering unit is the same as that of the second light filtering unit, so that the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the second light filtering unit and the flat layer is the same as the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the third light filtering unit and the flat layer, and therefore, the distance between the third light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located can be equal to the distance between the second light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located. The above-mentioned distance is a vertical distance.

[0057] In some embodiments, the light filtering unit further comprises a third light filtering unit, the refractive index of the third light filtering unit is less than the refractive index of the second light filtering unit, so that the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the second light filtering unit and the flat layer is greater than the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the third light filtering unit and the flat layer. By setting the distance between the third light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located to be greater than the distance between the second light filtering unit and the plane where the light emitting element is located, the probability of total reflection of the large-angle light emitted by the light emitting element at the interface between the third light filtering unit and the flat layer is improved, and the case that the light emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the third light filtering unit and the second light filtering unit is avoided. The above-mentioned distance is a vertical distance.

[0058] In this embodiment, the colors of the first light filtering unit, the second light filtering unit and the third light filtering unit are different, and the first light filtering unit, the second light filtering unit and the third light filtering unit can be selected from a red light filtering unit, a green light filtering unit and a blue light filtering unit.

[0059] In the specific embodiment one, as shown in FIG. 1, the display panel includes a driving substrate 01, an anode 02 and a black pixel defining layer 04 located on the driving substrate 01, the driving substrate 01 includes a substrate and a pixel circuit layer located on the substrate, the black pixel defining layer 04 defines a plurality of first openings, a red light emitting layer 031, a green light emitting layer 032 and a blue light emitting layer 033 are formed in the first openings, the display panel further includes a cathode 05 and an encapsulation layer 06 located on a side of the light emitting layer away from the driving substrate. In a direction away from the driving substrate, the encapsulation layer 06 sequentially has a first planar film layer 07, a second planar film layer 08, a third planar film layer 09 and a fourth planar film layer 10, the first planar film layer 07 defines a plurality of second openings, a red filter unit 121 is formed in the second openings defined by the first planar film layer 07, the second openings defined by the first planar film layer 07 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the red light emitting layer 031 is formed; the second planar film layer 08 defines a plurality of second openings, a green filter unit 122 and a blue filter unit 123 are formed in the second openings defined by the second planar film layer 08, the second openings defined by the second planar film layer 08 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the green light emitting layer 032 and the blue light emitting layer 033 are formed.

[0060] In the embodiment, the refractive index of the first planar film layer 07 can be 1.45-1.5, the refractive index of the red filter unit 121 can be 1.65-1.75, for example, 1.7; the slope angle a of the side surface of the first planar film layer 07 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large viewing angle light emitted by the red light emitting layer 031 is easy to be totally reflected at the interface between the first planar film layer 07 and the red filter unit 121, so that more light can be emitted through the red filter unit 121, thereby improving the light emission efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the first planar film layer 07 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the red filter unit 121, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the red light emitting layer 031 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located in the orthographic projection of the second opening defined by the first planar film layer 07 on the driving substrate 01. In order to make more light be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light emission efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance d1 between the boundary of the second opening defined by the first planar film layer 07 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0061] In the embodiment, the thickness of the first planar film layer 07 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the first planar film layer 07. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the first planar film layer 07 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the first planar film layer 07 away from the substrate substrate. In some embodiments, the width d2 of the orthographic projection of the part on the substrate substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0062] The black matrix 11 is formed on the side of the third planar film layer 09 away from the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black pixel defining layer 04 on the substrate substrate. The touch electrode 13 can also be formed on the side of the first planar film layer 07 away from the driving substrate 01, so that the display panel integrates the touch function. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 13 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate.

[0063] The refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.45-1.5, and the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 can be 1.55-1.65, such as 1.6. The slope angle of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the green light-emitting layer 032 is easily totally reflected at the interface between the second planar film layer 08 and the green filter unit 122, and the large-angle light emitted by the blue light-emitting layer 033 is easily totally reflected at the interface between the second planar film layer 08 and the blue filter unit 123, so that more light can be emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel. In order to avoid the second planar film layer 08 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the green light-emitting layer 032 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the blue filter unit 123 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to make more light emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the second planar film layer 08 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0064] In the embodiment, the thickness of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 is not less than the thickness of the second planar film layer 08. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the second planar film layer 08, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the second planar film layer 08, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 cover the entire area of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening, and extend along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the second planar film layer 08 away from the substrate substrate. In some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0065] The touch electrode bridge 14 can also be formed on the side of the second planar film layer 08 away from the driving substrate 01. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode bridge 14 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate.

[0066] In the embodiment, the third planar film layer 09 and the fourth planar film layer 10 can be prepared by using a resin with a refractive index of 1.45-1.5.

[0067] In the embodiment, the preparation sequence of each film layer when preparing the display panel is: the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121, the touch electrode 13, the second planar film layer 08, the green filter unit 122, the blue filter unit 123, the touch electrode bridge 14, the third planar film layer 09, the black matrix 11 and the fourth planar film layer 10. In the embodiment, the third planar film layer 09 and the fourth planar film layer 10 do not form the second opening, so the refractive index of the third planar film layer 09 and the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0068] As shown in FIG. 2, since the refractive index of the red filter unit 121 is greater than the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, the light emitted by the red light-emitting layer is more likely to be totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first flat film layer 07; in this embodiment, the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer, in the red pixel area, the light with an emission angle greater than θ1 will be totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first flat film layer 07; in the green pixel area and the blue pixel area, the light with an emission angle greater than θ2 will be totally reflected at the interface between the filter unit and the second flat film layer 08, since the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer, θ1 is greater than θ2, which can increase the probability of total reflection of the light emitted by the green light-emitting layer and the blue light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the second flat film layer 08, and as shown in FIG. 3, the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ2 is greater than the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ1, which increases the light extraction efficiency of the green pixel area and the blue pixel area, which can avoid the case that the light extraction efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the red filter unit 121 and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and improve the uniformity of light emission of the display device.

[0069] In a specific embodiment two, as shown in FIG. 4, the display panel includes a driving substrate 01, an anode 02 and a black pixel defining layer 04 located on the driving substrate 01, the driving substrate 01 includes a substrate and a pixel circuit layer located on the substrate, the black pixel defining layer 04 defines a plurality of first openings, and a red light-emitting layer 031, a green light-emitting layer 032 and a blue light-emitting layer 033 are formed in the first openings, the display panel further includes a cathode 05 and an encapsulation layer 06 located away from the driving substrate side of the light-emitting layer. In the direction away from the driving substrate, the first flat film layer 07, the second flat film layer 08, the third flat film layer 09 and the fourth flat film layer 10 are sequentially formed on the encapsulation layer 06, the second flat film layer 08 defines a plurality of second openings, the red filter unit 121 is formed in the second openings defined by the second flat film layer 08, and the second openings defined by the second flat film layer 08 correspond one by one to the first openings in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed; the third flat film layer 09 defines a plurality of second openings, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 are formed in the second openings defined by the third flat film layer 09, and the second openings defined by the third flat film layer 09 correspond one by one to the first openings in which the green light-emitting layer 032 and the blue light-emitting layer 033 are formed.

[0070] In the embodiment, the refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.45-1.5, the refractive index of the red filter unit 121 can be 1.65-1.75, for example, 1.7; the slope angle of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large visual angle light emitted by the red light-emitting layer 031 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the second planar film layer 08 and the red filter unit 121, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121, and improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the second planar film layer 08 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the red filter unit 121, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the second opening defined by the second planar film layer 08 on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the second planar film layer 08 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0071] In the embodiment, the thickness of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the second planar film layer 08. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the second planar film layer 08, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the second planar film layer 08, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the area of the first surface of the second planar film layer 08 away from the substrate. In some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0072] The black matrix 11 is formed on the side of the third planar film layer 09 away from the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black pixel defining layer 04 on the substrate; the touch electrode 13 can also be formed on the side of the first planar film layer 07 away from the driving substrate 01, so that the display panel can realize the function of integrated touch control. In order not to affect display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 13 on the substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate.

[0073] The third flat film layer 09 can have a refractive index of 1.45-1.5, and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 can have a refractive index of 1.55-1.65, for example, 1.6. The slope angle of the side surface of the third flat film layer 09 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the green light-emitting layer 032 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the third flat film layer 09 and the green filter unit 122, and the large-angle light emitted by the blue light-emitting layer 033 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the third flat film layer 09 and the blue filter unit 123, so that more light can be emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel. In order to avoid the third flat film layer 09 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the green light-emitting layer 032 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the blue filter unit 123 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to make more light emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the third flat film layer 09 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0074] In this embodiment, the thickness of the third flat film layer 09 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 is not less than the thickness of the third flat film layer 09. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the third flat film layer 09, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the third flat film layer 09, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 cover the entire area of the side surface of the third flat film layer 09 close to the second opening, and extend along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the third flat film layer 09 away from the substrate. In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the part of the substrate can have a width of 1-5 microns.

[0075] The touch electrode bridge 14 can also be formed on the side of the second flat film layer 08 away from the driving substrate 01. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode bridge 14 on the substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate.

[0076] In this embodiment, the first flat film layer 07 and the fourth flat film layer 10 can be made of resin with a refractive index of 1.45-1.5.

[0077] In this embodiment, the preparation sequence of each film layer is: the first flat film layer 07, the touch electrode 13, the second flat film layer 08, the red filter unit 121, the touch electrode bridge 14, the third flat film layer 09, the green filter unit 122, the blue filter unit 123, the black matrix 11 and the fourth flat film layer 10. In this embodiment, the first flat film layer 07 and the fourth flat film layer 10 do not form the second opening, and thus the refractive index of the first flat film layer 07 and the fourth flat film layer 10 is not limited.

[0078] In this embodiment, the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer. In the red pixel region, the light with the exit angle greater than θ1 will be totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first flat film layer 07; in the green pixel region and the blue pixel region, the light with the exit angle greater than θ2 will be totally reflected at the interface between the filter unit and the second flat film layer 08. Since the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer, θ1 is greater than θ2, which can increase the probability of total reflection of the light emitted by the green light-emitting layer and the blue light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the second flat film layer 08. As shown in FIG. 2, the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ2 is greater than the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ1, which increases the light extraction efficiency of the green pixel region and the blue pixel region. Thus, the difference in light extraction efficiency caused by the difference in refractive index between the red filter unit 121, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 can be avoided, and the uniformity of light extraction of the display device is improved.

[0079] In the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the display panel includes a driving substrate 01, an anode 02 and a black pixel defining layer 04 on the driving substrate 01, the driving substrate 01 includes a substrate and a pixel circuit layer on the substrate, the black pixel defining layer 04 defines a plurality of first openings, a red light-emitting layer 031, a green light-emitting layer 032 and a blue light-emitting layer 033 are formed in the first openings, the display panel further includes a cathode 05 and an encapsulation layer 06 on a side of the light-emitting layer away from the driving substrate. In a direction away from the driving substrate, the encapsulation layer 06 sequentially has a first planarization film layer 07, a second planarization film layer 08, a third planarization film layer 09 and a fourth planarization film layer 10, the first planarization film layer 07 defines a plurality of second openings, a red filter unit 121 is formed in the second openings defined by the first planarization film layer 07, and the second openings defined by the first planarization film layer 07 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed; the third planarization film layer 09 defines a plurality of second openings, a green filter unit 122 and a blue filter unit 123 are formed in the second openings defined by the third planarization film layer 09, and the second openings defined by the third planarization film layer 09 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the green light-emitting layer 032 and the blue light-emitting layer 033 are formed.

[0080] In the embodiment, the first planarization film layer 07 can have a refractive index of 1.45-1.5, and the red filter unit 121 can have a refractive index of 1.65-1.75, for example, 1.7; a slope angle of a side surface of the first planarization film layer 07 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the red light-emitting layer 031 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the first planarization film layer 07 and the red filter unit 121, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the first planarization film layer 07 blocking the emission of light and enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located in the orthographic projection of the second opening defined by the first planarization film layer 07 on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the first planarization film layer 07 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0081] In the embodiment, the thickness of the first planar film layer 07 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the first planar film layer 07. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the first planar film layer 07 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the first planar film layer 07 away from the substrate substrate. In some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0082] The black matrix 11 is formed on the side of the third planar film layer 09 away from the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black pixel defining layer 04 on the substrate substrate. The touch electrode 13 can also be formed on the side of the first planar film layer 07 away from the driving substrate 01, so that the display panel integrates the touch function. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 13 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate.

[0083] The refractive index of the third planar film layer 09 can be 1.45-1.5, and the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 can be 1.55-1.65, such as 1.6. The slope angle of the side surface of the third planar film layer 09 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large viewing angle light emitted by the green light-emitting layer 032 is easily totally reflected at the interface between the third planar film layer 09 and the green filter unit 122, and the large viewing angle light emitted by the blue light-emitting layer 033 is easily totally reflected at the interface between the third planar film layer 09 and the blue filter unit 123, so that more light can be emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel. In order to avoid the third planar film layer 09 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the green light-emitting layer 032 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the blue filter unit 123 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to make more light emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the third planar film layer 09 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0084] In this embodiment, the third planar film layer 09 can have a thickness of 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 is not less than the thickness of the third planar film layer 09. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the third planar film layer 09, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the third planar film layer 09, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 cover the entire area of the side surface of the third planar film layer 09 close to the second opening, and extend along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the third planar film layer 09 away from the substrate substrate. In some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0085] The touch electrode bridge 14 can also be formed on the side of the second planar film layer 08 away from the driving substrate 01. In order to not affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode bridge 14 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate.

[0086] In this embodiment, the second planar film layer 08 and the fourth planar film layer 10 can be prepared by using a resin with a refractive index of 1.45-1.5.

[0087] In this embodiment, when preparing the display panel, the preparation sequence of each film layer is: the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121, the touch electrode 13, the second planar film layer 08, the touch electrode bridge 14, the third planar film layer 09, the green filter unit 122, the blue filter unit 123, the black matrix 11 and the fourth planar film layer 10. In this embodiment, the second planar film layer 08 and the fourth planar film layer 10 do not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 and the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0088] In the embodiment, the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer. In the red pixel region, the light with the exit angle greater than θ1 will be totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07. In the green pixel region and the blue pixel region, the light with the exit angle greater than θ2 will be totally reflected at the interface between the filter unit and the second planar film layer 08. Since the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer, θ1 is greater than θ2. In this way, the probability of the light emitted by the green light-emitting layer and the blue light-emitting layer being totally reflected at the interface between the filter unit and the second planar film layer 08 is increased. As shown in FIG. 2, the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ2 is greater than the light intensity proportion corresponding to the viewing angle θ1. In this way, the light emission efficiency of the green pixel region and the blue pixel region is increased. In this way, the case that the light emission efficiency is different due to the difference in the refractive index between the red filter unit 121 and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 is avoided, and the uniformity of the light emission of the display device is improved.

[0089] In a specific embodiment four, as shown in FIG. 6, the display panel includes a driving substrate 01, an anode 02 and a black pixel defining layer 04 located on the driving substrate 01, the driving substrate 01 includes a substrate and a pixel circuit layer located on the substrate, the black pixel defining layer 04 defines a plurality of first openings, and a red light-emitting layer 031, a green light-emitting layer 032 and a blue light-emitting layer 033 are formed in the first openings. The display panel further includes a cathode 05 and an encapsulation layer 06 located on the side of the light-emitting layer away from the driving substrate. In the direction away from the driving substrate, the encapsulation layer 06 is sequentially provided with a first planar film layer 07, a second planar film layer 08, a third planar film layer 09 and a fourth planar film layer 10. The first planar film layer 07 defines a plurality of second openings, and a red filter unit 121 is formed in the second openings defined by the first planar film layer 07. The second openings defined by the first planar film layer 07 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed. The second planar film layer 08 defines a plurality of second openings, and a green filter unit 122 is formed in the second openings defined by the second planar film layer 08. The second openings defined by the second planar film layer 08 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the green light-emitting layer 032 is formed. The third planar film layer 09 defines a plurality of second openings, and a blue filter unit 123 is formed in the second openings defined by the third planar film layer 09. The second openings defined by the third planar film layer 09 correspond one-to-one to the first openings in which the blue light-emitting layer 033 is formed.

[0090] In the embodiment, the first planar film layer 07 can have a refractive index of 1.45-1.5, and the red filter unit 121 can have a refractive index of 1.65-1.75, for example, 1.7. The slope angle of the side surface of the first planar film layer 07 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the red light-emitting layer 031 is likely to be totally reflected at the interface between the first planar film layer 07 and the red filter unit 121, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel. In order to avoid the first planar film layer 07 blocking the emission of light and enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the second opening defined by the first planar film layer 07 on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the first planar film layer 07 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0091] In the embodiment, the first planar film layer 07 can have a thickness of 1.5-2.5 microns, and the red filter unit 121 can have a thickness not less than that of the first planar film layer 07. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07 and enable more light to be totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the first planar film layer 07 close to the second opening and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the first planar film layer 07 away from the substrate. In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate can have a width of 1-5 microns.

[0092] The black matrix 11 is formed on the side of the third planar film layer 09 away from the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black pixel defining layer 04 on the substrate. The touch electrode 13 can also be formed on the side of the first planar film layer 07 away from the driving substrate 01, so that the display panel can integrate the touch function. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 13 on the substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate.

[0093] The refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.45-1.5, and the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 can be 1.55-1.65, for example, 1.6; the slope angle of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the green light-emitting layer 032 is easily totally reflected at the interface between the second planar film layer 08 and the green filter unit 122, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the green filter unit 122, improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the second planar film layer 08 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the green filter unit 122, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the green light-emitting layer 032 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the green filter unit 122 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the second planar film layer 08 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0094] In the embodiment, the thickness of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the green filter unit 122 is not less than the thickness of the second planar film layer 08. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the second planar film layer 08, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the second planar film layer 08, the green filter unit 122 covers the entire area of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the area of the first surface of the second planar film layer 08 away from the substrate substrate. In some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0095] The touch electrode bridge 14 can also be formed on the side of the second planar film layer 08 away from the driving substrate 01. In order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode bridge 14 on the substrate substrate is located within the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate substrate.

[0096] The refractive index of the third planar film layer 09 can be 1.45-1.5, and the refractive index of the blue filter unit 123 can be 1.5-1.55, for example, 1.55; the slope angle of the third planar film layer 09 close to the side surface of the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large visual angle light emitted by the blue light-emitting layer 033 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the third planar film layer 09 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the third planar film layer 09 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the blue filter unit 123, the first opening formed with the blue filter unit 123 is located in the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the blue filter unit 123 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the third planar film layer 09 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the first opening on the substrate on the driving substrate 01 can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0097] In this embodiment, the thickness of the third planar film layer 09 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the blue filter unit 123 is not less than the thickness of the third planar film layer 09. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the blue filter unit 123 and the third planar film layer 09, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the blue filter unit 123 and the third planar film layer 09, the blue filter unit 123 covers the entire area of the side surface of the third planar film layer 09 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the third planar film layer 09 away from the substrate, and in some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate can have a width of 1-5 microns.

[0098] In this embodiment, the fourth planar film layer 10 can be prepared by using a resin with a refractive index of 1.45-1.5.

[0099] In this embodiment, the preparation sequence of each film layer when preparing the display panel is: the first planar film layer 07, the red filter unit 121, the touch electrode 13, the second planar film layer 08, the green filter unit 122, the touch electrode bridge 14, the third planar film layer 09, the blue filter unit 123, the black matrix 11, and the fourth planar film layer 10. In this embodiment, the fourth planar film layer 10 does not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0100] In this embodiment, the refractive index of the red filter unit 121 is greater than the refractive index of the green filter unit 122, the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 is greater than the refractive index of the blue filter unit 123, and the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the green light-emitting layer, and the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the green light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the blue filter unit 123 and the blue light-emitting layer. This can increase the probability of total reflection of light emitted by the green light-emitting layer and the blue light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the flat film layer, thereby increasing the light-emitting efficiency of the green pixel region and the blue pixel region. This can avoid the case where the light-emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the red filter unit 121 and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and improve the uniformity of light emitted by the display device.

[0101] In a specific embodiment five, as shown in FIG. 7, the display panel includes a driving substrate 01, an anode 02 and a black pixel defining layer 04 located on the driving substrate 01, the driving substrate 01 including a substrate and a pixel circuit layer located on the substrate, and the black pixel defining layer 04 defining a plurality of first openings, a red light-emitting layer 031, a green light-emitting layer 032 and a blue light-emitting layer 033 being formed in the first openings.

In order to make more light be emitted through the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the orthographic projection of the boundary of the second opening defined by the first flat film layer 07 on the driving substrate 01 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the corresponding first opening on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0103] In the embodiment, the thickness of the first flat film layer 07 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 is not less than the thickness of the first flat film layer 07. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the first flat film layer 07, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the first flat film layer 07, the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 cover the entire area of the side surface of the first flat film layer 07 close to the second opening, and extend along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the first flat film layer 07 away from the substrate, and in some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0104] The black matrix 11 is formed on the side of the third flat film layer 09 away from the driving substrate 01, and the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate is located in the orthographic projection of the black pixel defining layer 04 on the substrate; the touch electrode 13 can also be formed on the side of the first flat film layer 07 away from the driving substrate 01, so that the display panel can realize the function of integrated touch control, and in order not to affect the display, the orthographic projection of the touch electrode 13 on the substrate is located in the orthographic projection of the black matrix 11 on the substrate.

[0105] The refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.45-1.5, and the refractive index of the red filter unit 121 can be 1.55-1.65, for example, 1.6; the slope angle of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening can be 55-85°, so that the large-angle light emitted by the red light-emitting layer 031 is prone to total reflection at the interface between the second planar film layer 08 and the red filter unit 121, thereby enabling more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121, and improving the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel; in order to avoid the second planar film layer 08 blocking the emission of light, so that more light is emitted through the red filter unit 121, the orthographic projection of the first opening in which the red light-emitting layer 031 is formed on the driving substrate 01 is located within the orthographic projection of the corresponding second opening on the driving substrate 01. In order to enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the second planar film layer 08 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the first opening on the substrate on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0106] In this embodiment, the thickness of the second planar film layer 08 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the second planar film layer 08. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the second planar film layer 08, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the second planar film layer 08, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the second planar film layer 08 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the second planar film layer 08 away from the substrate.

In this embodiment, the third planar film layer 09 and the fourth planar film layer 10 do not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the third planar film layer 09 and the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0109] In the embodiment, the red filter unit 121 has a smaller refractive index than the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is greater than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer. This can increase the probability of total reflection of the light emitted by the red light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the second planar film layer 08, thereby increasing the light-emitting efficiency of the red pixel region. This can avoid the case that the light-emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the red filter unit 121 and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and improve the uniformity of light emission of the display device.

In order to enable more light to be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the third planar film layer 09 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the first opening on the substrate on the driving substrate 01 can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0115] In this embodiment, the thickness of the third planar film layer 09 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the third planar film layer 09. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the third planar film layer 09, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the third planar film layer 09, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the third planar film layer 09 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the third planar film layer 09 away from the substrate, and in some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the part of the area on the substrate can have a width of 1-5 microns.

In this embodiment, the first planar film layer 07 and the fourth planar film layer 10 do not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the first planar film layer 07 and the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0118] In the embodiment, the red filter unit 121 has a smaller refractive index than the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is greater than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer. This can increase the probability of total reflection of the light emitted by the red light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the third planar film layer 09, thereby increasing the light-emitting efficiency of the red pixel region. This can avoid the case that the light-emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the red filter unit 121 and the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and improve the uniformity of light emission of the display device.

In this embodiment, the second planar film layer 08 and the fourth planar film layer 10 do not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the second planar film layer 08 and the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0127] In the embodiment, the red filter unit 121 has a smaller refractive index than the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123, and the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer is greater than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the blue filter unit 123 and the light-emitting layer, which can increase the probability of total reflection of the light emitted by the red light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the third planar film layer 09, so that the light-emitting efficiency of the red pixel region is increased.

In order to make more light be emitted through the red filter unit 121 and improve the light-emitting efficiency of the display panel, the minimum distance between the boundary of the second opening defined by the third planar film layer 09 and the orthographic projection of the boundary of the first opening on the substrate on the substrate can be 0.5-2 microns.

[0136] In this embodiment, the thickness of the third planar film layer 09 can be 1.5-2.5 microns, and the thickness of the red filter unit 121 is not less than the thickness of the third planar film layer 09. In order to ensure the area of the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the third planar film layer 09, so that more light is totally reflected at the interface between the red filter unit 121 and the third planar film layer 09, the red filter unit 121 covers the entire area of the side surface of the third planar film layer 09 close to the second opening, and extends along the side surface to cover part of the first surface of the third planar film layer 09 away from the substrate, and in some embodiments, the width of the orthographic projection of the part on the substrate can be 1-5 microns.

[0137] In this embodiment, the fourth planar film layer 10 can be prepared by using a resin with a refractive index of 1.45-1.5.

[0138] In this embodiment, the preparation sequence of each film layer when preparing the display panel is: the first planar film layer 07, the blue filter unit 123, the touch electrode 13, the second planar film layer 08, the green filter unit 122, the touch electrode bridge 14, the third planar film layer 09, the red filter unit 121, the black matrix 11, and the fourth planar film layer 10. In this embodiment, the fourth planar film layer 10 does not form a second opening, so the refractive index of the fourth planar film layer 10 is not limited.

[0139] In this embodiment, the refractive index of the blue filter unit 123 is greater than the refractive index of the green filter unit 122, the refractive index of the green filter unit 122 is greater than the refractive index of the red filter unit 121, and the distance between the blue filter unit 123 and the blue light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the green light-emitting layer, and the distance between the green filter unit 122 and the green light-emitting layer is less than the distance between the red filter unit 121 and the red light-emitting layer. This can increase the probability of total reflection of light emitted by the green light-emitting layer and the red light-emitting layer at the interface between the filter unit and the flat film layer, thereby increasing the light-emitting efficiency of the green pixel region and the red pixel region. This can avoid the case that the light-emitting efficiency is different due to the difference in refractive index between the blue filter unit 123 and the green filter unit 122 and the red filter unit 121, and improve the uniformity of light emitted by the display device.
