This application is a National Stage of International Application No. PCT/CN2018/092468, filed Jun. 22, 2018, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201710831410.4, filed Sep. 15, 2017, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.
This disclosure relates to the field of display technologies, and particularly to a display panel and a display device.
An Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode (AMOLED) panel characterized in high contrast, a wide color gamut, a high response speed, flexibility, etc., has been undergoing popular commercialization in the industry of flat panels, and is expected to be the most promising competitor among future display technologies.
The AMOLED panel is inevitably coming to being applied to a display of a mobile phone, and the display of the mobile phone is also becoming full-screen as pursued in the industry, so it is desirable to recognize a fingerprint or a palmprint on a front face of the mobile phone with the full-screen display during man-machine interaction. In the related art, only a fingerprint in a fixed area can be recognized, and an additional backlight has to be arranged separately, or an integrated micro light-emitting diode (LED) has to be configured, as a recognition light source, thus complicating an assembling process, discouraging the mobile phone from being low-weighted and portable, and hindering a fingerprint or a palmprint from being recognized throughout the screen.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions, and advantages of the disclosure more apparent, the disclosure will be described below in further details with reference to the drawings, and apparently the embodiments described below are only a part but not all of the embodiments of the disclosure. Based upon the embodiments here of the disclosure, all the other embodiments which can occur to those ordinarily skilled in the art without any inventive effort shall fall into the scope of the disclosure.
The shapes and sizes of respective components in the drawings are not intended to reflect any real proportion, but only intended to illustrate the disclosure of the disclosure.
As illustrated in
In the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, if there is a wider overlapping spectrum between the emission spectrum of each of the plurality of infrared light sources, and the absorption spectrum of each of the plurality of infrared photosensitive sensors, then it will be more likely for the infrared photosensitive sensors to absorb energy of light rays from the near infrared light sources, and the energy will be transported more efficiently. Accordingly the wider the overlapping spectrum is, the better the effect is.
At present, a near infrared photosensitive sensor has been widely applied, and the technology thereof has been well developed, so optionally in the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the infrared light sources can include the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes, and the infrared photosensitive sensors can include the near infrared photosensitive diodes, although the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto.
It shall be noted that the infrared light sources are the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, and the infrared photosensitive sensors are the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300, as illustrated in the drawings of the disclosure by way of an example.
Optionally, in the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, an emission wavelength of each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 ranges from 780 nanometers to 2500 nanometers, for example, and since the wavelength of light visible to human eyes ranges from 380 nanometers to 780 nanometers, and light at a wavelength greater than 780 nanometers is invisible to human eyes, the emission spectrum of each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 is set between 780 nanometers and 2500 nanometers, so that the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes can emit light rays without hindering the display panel from displaying normally in operation.
Optionally, the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure is an organic light-emitting panel. Of course, the display panel can alternatively be another type of panel, e.g., a liquid crystal display panel, a plasma display panel, electronic paper, etc., although the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto.
Optionally, the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure is applicable to a flexible screen, or is applicable to a rigid screen, although the embodiments of the disclosure will not be limited thereto.
Particularly,
Particularly, the upper substrate 01 generally includes an encapsulation layer (and/or other existing structures, of course), and it shall be noted that, in a particular implementation, the upper substrate 01 which is an encapsulation layer may be dispensed with, but a thin layer may be formed directly above the base substrate 02 arranged in the structure above as an encapsulation layer.
Particularly, when the display panel is a flexible display panel, the base substrate 02 can be a flexible substrate (and/or other existing structures, of course); or in a particular implementation, when the display panel is a rigid panel, the base substrate 02 can include a glass substrate. Thin Film Transistors (TFTs), a driving circuit, and other structures, which are not illustrated, can be further formed on the base substrate, and they can be fabricated as in the related art, so a repeated description thereof will be omitted here.

That is, the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 generally differ from the organic light-emitting sub-pixels in materials of the light-emitting layers, and generally since the light-emitting layers emit different light, the materials of the light-emitting layers are different.

Optionally, in the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, when the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 are located below the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, orthographic projections of respective near infrared photosensitive layers 32 onto the base substrate 02 cover orthographic projections of near infrared light-emitting layers 22 onto the base substrate 02, so that the near infrared photosensitive layers 32 can absorb more of light emitted by the near infrared light-emitting layers 22, thus improving the sensitivity to a touch.
Optionally, in the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 can alternatively be arranged at the same layer as the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300, that is, the first electrodes 23 of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 are arranged at the same layer as the fifth electrodes 33 of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300, thus reducing the overall thickness of the display panel.
Optionally, in the display panel above according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the second electrodes 21 of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 are arranged at the same layer as the sixth electrodes 31 of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300, so that the second electrodes 21 and the sixth electrodes 31 can be formed in the same patterning process to thereby simplify the fabrication process, and lower the production cost.

For example, each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 is structured in three layers, and each pixel unit 400 is structured in three layers, so the corresponding layers in the three-layer structures of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 and the pixel units 400 are located at the same layers on the base substrate 02, that is, the bottom layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 are arranged at the same layer as the bottom layers of the pixel units 400, the intermediate layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 are arranged at the same layer as the intermediate layers of the pixel units 400, and the top layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 are arranged at the same layer as the top layers of the pixel units 400. And in another example, each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 is structured in three layers, and each pixel unit 400 is structured in four layers, so the three layers of each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 are arranged respectively at the same layers as the bottom layer, and the other two layers proximate to the bottom layer, of each pixel unit 400, and here the thicknesses of the respective layers will not be limited to any particular thicknesses, but only the positions at which and the order in which they are stacked have been illustrated.
Optionally, in the display panel above according to another particular embodiment of the disclosure, as illustrated in

For example, each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 is structured in three layers, each near infrared photosensitive diode 300 is structured in three layers, and each pixel unit 400 is structured in three layers, so the corresponding layers in the three-layer structures of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300, and the pixel units 400 are located at the same layers on the base substrate 02, that is, the bottom layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, and the bottom layers of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 are arranged at the same layer as the bottom layers of the pixel units 400, the intermediate layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, and the intermediate layers of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 are arranged at the same layer as the intermediate layers of the pixel units 400, and the top layers of the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200, and the top layers of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 are arranged at the same layer as the top layers of the pixel units 400. And in another example, each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200 is structured in three layers, each near infrared photosensitive diode 300 is structured in three layers, and each pixel unit 400 is structured in four layers, so the three layers of each near infrared organic light-emitting diode 200, and the three layers of each near infrared photosensitive diode 300 are arranged respectively at the same layers as the bottom layer, and the other two layers proximate to the bottom layer, of each pixel unit 400, and here the thicknesses of the respective layers will not be limited to any particular thicknesses, but only the positions at which and the order in which they are stacked have been illustrated.

Based upon the same inventive concept, as illustrated in
Particular operations are as follows.
The operation S801 is to form a pattern of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 distributed in an array on the base substrate 02 in a patterning process. In a particular implementation, a photosensitive material of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300 can be an organic material, e.g., a dithiolene material, such as BDN (bis(4-dimethylaminodithiobenzil) nickd(II)), a polymer of benzotriazole, such as PTZBTTT-BDT, a small molecule material of porphyrin, such as DHTBTEZP, etc. This operation can alternatively be performed through printing, inkjet printing, transfer-printing, etc.
The operation S802 is to form the insulation dielectric layer 06 on the pattern of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300. In a particular implementation, the insulation dielectric layer can be made of a polymer, silicide, etc., or another material, and formed through printing, inkjet printing, transfer-printing, chemical vapor deposition, etc, and electrode through-holes can be formed in a photolithographic process including exposure, development, etching, etc. The first electrodes 23 and the third electrodes 44 or 45 or 46 are formed on the insulation dielectric layer 06 through sputtering, photolithography or another patterning process. The pixel definition layer 04 can be formed on the electrode layers in a photolithographic process, and the material of the pixel definition layer 04 can be an organic material, e.g., polyimide, phenolic resin, etc.
The operation S803 is to form patterns of the pixel units 400 and the near infrared organic light-emitting diodes 200 alternately spaced from each other above the pattern of the near infrared photosensitive diodes 300. Particularly, a pattern of the hole injection layers 206 as illustrated in
The operation S804 is to encapsulate the display panel using the upper substrate 01. In a particular implementation, alternatively a thin film layer can be formed directly above the resulting base substrate 02 as an encapsulation layer instead of using the upper substrate 01.
In summary, in the display panel and the display device according to the embodiments of the disclosure, the infrared light sources, the pixel units, and the infrared photosensitive sensors are arranged on the base substrate to thereby extend an area for recognizing a fingerprint or a palmprint instead of only a fixed area in which a fingerprint can be recognized as in the related art, so as to recognize a fingerprint or a palmprint throughout the screen while improving the precision of recognizing light rays; and on the other hand, the infrared light sources and the infrared photosensitive sensors are integrated in the screen, so no light sources for recognizing a fingerprint will be additionally arranged, thus lowering the complexity of assembling, and enabling a mobile phone to be light-weighted and flexible.
Evidently those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Thus the invention is also intended to encompass these modifications and variations thereto so long as the modifications and variations come into the scope of the claims appended to the invention and their equivalents.
