The present disclosure relates to a field of display technologies, and more particularly, to a display panel, a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device.
In order to improve the luminous efficiency of the display panel, an organic layer having an opening is usually formed in the display panel, and then a high refractive index material is filled in the opening of the organic layer to change the light propagation path, so that light originally diverged at a large viewing angle is converged to a positive viewing angle, thereby improving the luminance of the positive viewing angle.
Currently, a high refractive index film layer may be formed on the organic layer by bonding, to fill the opening. Further, in the manufacturing process, since the display panel may undergo a plurality of processes such as handling, flipping, cutting, and slitting, after the opening is formed in the organic layer and the high refractive index film layer is bonded to the organic layer, a protective film is usually bonded to the organic layer, and the protective film is torn off when the high refractive index film layer is subsequently bonded to the organic layer.
However, in a process of peeling off the protective film, an adhesive layer on the protective film is prone to form a residue in a part of the opening of the organic layer, and because the refractive index of the adhesive layer is small, an optical anomaly, such as uneven display, appears on the display panel.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display panel, a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device, which may improve an optical abnormality caused by residual adhesive layer.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display panel including:
