The application provides a display panel and a display device, which aim to solve the technical problems in the prior art. The following describes the technical scheme of the present application and how the technical scheme of the present application solves the above technical problems in detail with specific embodiments.
In a first aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a display panel. Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a display panel according to an embodiment of the application. The display panel includes a substrate 1, a light emitting device layer 2, a light transmitting structure 31, and a light transmitting layer 32.
The light emitting device layer 2 is provided on one side of the substrate 1.
The light transmitting structure 31 is disposed on a side of the light emitting device layer 2 remote from the substrate 1.
The light-transmitting layer 32 is disposed on a side of the light-emitting device layer 2 away from the substrate 1 and covers the light-transmitting structure 31.
Wherein the refractive index of the light-transmitting layer 32 is larger than the refractive index of the light-transmitting structure 31.
Through setting up light-transmitting structure 31 and printing opacity layer 32, turn specific big visual angle direction's light into the positive visual angle direction, under the condition of removing the optical selective membrane, integrated the function of optical selective membrane in display panel, also can increase the luminous efficiency of demonstration simultaneously to improve the life-span under the same luminance, in order to improve on-vehicle demonstration product quality, reduce cost improves product competitiveness.
In the present embodiment, since the refractive index of the light-transmitting layer 32 is greater than that of the light-transmitting structure 31, at least part of the light emitted from the light-emitting device layer 2 is totally reflected on the critical surface between the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31 during the process of emitting the light from the light-transmitting layer 32 to the light-transmitting structure 31.
In some embodiments of the present application, the light emitting device layer 2 includes a light emitting device 21 and an encapsulation layer 22;
The light emitting device 21 is arranged on one side of the substrate 1 close to the light transmitting layer 32;
the encapsulation layer 22 encapsulates the light emitting device 21, and the refractive index of the encapsulation layer 22 is smaller than the refractive index of the light transmitting layer 32.
In the present embodiment, the light emitting angle of the light emitting device layer 2 is large, the visible angles of 85 degrees are all provided in four directions, and the degree of luminance attenuation of light is small. When the light-emitting device layer 2 is applied to vehicle-mounted display, a display screen can form reflection projection on a windshield, and judgment of a driver is misled, so that driving safety at night is influenced. In order to improve the safety, it is necessary to selectively attenuate the emitted light of the display panel.
The encapsulation layer 22 encapsulates the surface of the light emitting device 21, the encapsulation layer 22 is in contact with the light-transmitting layer 32, and the light-transmitting layer 32 encapsulates the light-transmitting structure 31. The emergent light emitted from the light emitting device 21 enters the packaging layer 22, then enters the light-transmitting layer 32 from the packaging layer 22, the first part of light is directly emitted to the emergent side from the light-transmitting layer 32, the light path of the second part of light passes through the critical surface of the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31, the total reflection of part of light in the second part of light occurs at the critical surface of the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31, and the other part of light enters the light-transmitting structure 31.
Since total reflection occurs under the condition that light enters a medium with a lower refractive index from a medium with a higher refractive index, the refracted light will disappear and the incident light will be reflected without entering a medium with a lower refractive index. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the refractive index of the light-transmitting layer 32 is greater than that of the light-transmitting structure 31. In order to make more light totally reflect at the critical surface between the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31, the refractive index of the encapsulation layer 22 is smaller than that of the light-transmitting layer 32 by forming a refractive index difference between the encapsulation layer 22 and the light-transmitting layer 32. When the outgoing light emitted from the light emitting device 21 passes through the critical surface between the encapsulation layer 22 and the light-transmitting layer 32, a part of the outgoing light still has the light-transmitting layer 32 and is directly emitted to the light-emitting side, and when the light path of another part of the light passes through the critical surface between the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31, the incident angle becomes larger, and compared with the embodiment in which the refractive index of the light-transmitting layer 32 is the same as that of the encapsulation layer 22, more light is totally reflected at the critical surface between the light-transmitting layer 32 and the light-transmitting structure 31.
In some embodiments of the present application, the light-transmitting structure 31 includes first light-transmitting structures 31a, at least two first light-transmitting structures 31a are parallel, arranged at intervals along a first direction, and each first light-transmitting structure 31a extends along a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are staggered.
As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic plan view of a pixel unit according to an embodiment of the application. In the present embodiment, the direction of the light emitting device layer 2 toward the windshield is defined as a first direction. In order to block the emission light of the light emitting device layer 2 from being emitted in the first direction, the first light transmitting structure 31a extending in the second direction is provided, and the first direction and the second direction are staggered with each other, so that the light path of the emission light passes through the first light transmitting structure 31a. In this embodiment, the plurality of pixel units are arranged in an array, and the plurality of first light-transmitting structures 31a are parallel to each other and are arranged at intervals along the first direction, that is, each pixel unit is provided with the first light-transmitting structure 31a at least on one side facing the windshield in the first direction.

the first light transmitting structure 31a is located at opposite sides of the pixel unit in the first direction and between the first color light emitting device 21a and the second color light emitting device 21 b.
In this embodiment, a plurality of pixel units are arranged in an array, and a first light-transmitting structure 31a is disposed between two adjacent pixel units in the first direction, that is, different first light-transmitting structures 31a are parallel to each other and also form an array, and at least one pixel unit is just located between two adjacent first light-transmitting structures 31 a.
Further investigation is made on pixel units each including the first color light emitting device 21a, the second color light emitting device 21b, and the third color light emitting device 21c therein. In a specific embodiment, the first color is red, the second color is green, and the third color is blue. Because the blue phosphor material has poor stability and short life, the blue phosphor material has low luminous efficiency, and the orthographic projection area of the third color light emitting device 21c on the substrate 1 is larger than the orthographic projection area of any one of the first color light emitting device 21a and the second color light emitting device 21b on the substrate 1. The first color light emitting device 21a and the second color light emitting device 21b are arranged together on the upper side in the drawing, and the third color light emitting device 21c is arranged separately on the lower side in the drawing. The first light transmitting structure 31a is provided between the first color light emitting device 21a and the second light emitting device 21, in addition to being provided outside the pixel unit.

As shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic plan view of a pixel unit according to another embodiment of the application. The display panel is applied to vehicle-mounted display, and the display screen forms a reflection projection on the electronic rearview mirror on the side surface in addition to the reflection projection on the windshield. For driving safety, a second light-transmitting structure 31b is further provided in this embodiment, and a direction of the display device layer facing any one of the electronic rearview mirrors is defined as a second direction. In order to block the emission light of the light emitting device layer 2 from being emitted in the second direction, a second light transmitting structure 31b extending in the first direction is provided. In a specific embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and a part of the light path of the outgoing light passes through the first light-transmitting structure 31a, and another part passes through the second light-transmitting structure 31b. In this embodiment, the plurality of pixel units are arranged in an array, and the plurality of second light-transmitting structures 31b are parallel to each other and are arranged at intervals along the second direction, that is, each pixel unit is provided with the second light-transmitting structure 31b at least on one side facing any one of the electronic rearview mirrors in the second direction.
In some embodiments of the present application, the light emitting device 21 includes a plurality of pixel units, each including a first light emitting device 21, a second light emitting device 21, and a third light emitting device 21;
The first light transmitting structure 31a is disposed at two opposite sides of the pixel unit in the first direction and between the first light emitting device 21 and the second light emitting device 21, and the second light transmitting structure 31b is disposed at two opposite sides of the pixel unit in the second direction.
In this embodiment, a plurality of pixel units are arranged in an array, and a second light-transmitting structure 31b is disposed between two adjacent pixel units in the second direction, that is, different second light-transmitting structures 31b are parallel to each other and also form an array, and at least one pixel unit is just located between two adjacent second light-transmitting structures 31 b.
Further investigation is made on pixel units each including the first color light emitting device 21a, the second color light emitting device 21b, and the third color light emitting device 21c therein. In the above-described embodiment, the first color light emitting device 21a and the second color light emitting device 21b are arranged together on the upper side in the drawing, and the third color light emitting device 21c is arranged separately on the lower side in the drawing. The second light-transmitting structures 31b are disposed at least outside the pixel units, i.e. on two opposite sides of the pixel units in the second direction. In another embodiment, the second light-transmitting structure 31b is further disposed between the third color light emitting device 21c and the first color light emitting device 21a or the second light emitting device 21, and at least one second light-transmitting structure 31b is disposed inside the pixel unit to separate the first color light emitting device 21a, the second color light emitting device 21b and the third color light emitting device 21c. The light emitted from the first color light emitting device 21a, the second color light emitting device 21b, or the third color light emitting device 21c is prevented from escaping in the second direction.
In some embodiments of the present application, the height of the at least one first light-transmitting structure 31a is greater than the height of the at least one second light-transmitting structure 31 b.
In the present embodiment, since the electronic rear view mirror and the driver are located in the same direction of the light emitting device layer 2, i.e., the second direction, the height of the second light transmitting structure 31b needs to be smaller than the height of the first light transmitting structure 31a, preventing the light transmitting structure 31 from affecting the front view angle light of the driver. In the preparation of the display panel, the first light-transmitting structure 31a and the second light-transmitting structure 31b are prepared by using a half-tone mask plate, wherein the half-tone mask plate has low transmittance corresponding to the first light-transmitting structure 31a and high transmittance corresponding to the second light-transmitting structure 31b, so that the height of the first light-transmitting structure 31a is larger than that of the second light-transmitting structure 31b, and the total reflection of the light passing through the second light-transmitting structure 31b is less than that of the light passing through the first light-transmitting structure 31 a. The shapes and the heights of the first light-transmitting structure 31a and the second light-transmitting structure 31b are reasonably selected, so that the light totally reflected by the light-transmitting structure 31 is emitted to the positive viewing angle, and the light brightness of the positive viewing angle is enhanced. In this embodiment, the light after total reflection exits to a viewing angle of 45-60 degrees, which can be observed by the primary and secondary drivers.
In some embodiments of the present application, the refractive index of the at least one first light transmissive structure 31a is smaller than the refractive index of the at least one second light transmissive structure 31 b.
In the present embodiment, since the electronic rear view mirror and the driver are located in the same direction of the light emitting device layer 2, i.e., the second direction, the refractive index of the second light transmitting structure 31b needs to be larger than that of the first light transmitting structure 31a, preventing the light transmitting structure 31 from affecting the front view angle light of the driver. In the preparation display panel, adopt different materials to prepare first light-transmitting structure 31a and second light-transmitting structure 31b respectively, the refractive index difference between second light-transmitting structure 31b and the printing opacity layer 32 is less than the difference between first light-transmitting structure 31a and the printing opacity layer 32, thereby the refractive index that forms second light-transmitting structure 31b is greater than the refractive index of first light-transmitting structure 31a, make the light that takes place total reflection through second light-transmitting structure 31b be less than the light that takes place total reflection through first light-transmitting structure 31a, under the circumstances of guaranteeing the positive visual angle light-emitting in the second direction, shield the light-emitting of other angles, can select structure and material that shading effect is better in the first direction.

In another embodiment, the orthographic projection of at least one of the first color light emitting device 21a, the second color light emitting device 21b, and the third color light emitting device 21c on the substrate 1 is an axisymmetric polygon (the number of sides is greater than 4), such as a hexagon. The light transmitting structure 31 is disposed only at opposite sides of the light emitting device 21, and the light leakage phenomenon is still serious. In this embodiment, the second orthographic projection not only completely surrounds opposite sides of the first orthographic projection in the first direction, but also surrounds a portion of a side surface of the first orthographic projection in the second direction, and a notch is formed in an unenclosed portion. The notch may be located on only one side of the first orthographic projection or may be located on opposite sides of the first orthographic projection in the second direction.
