DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure is described below in detail. Examples of the embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings. The same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar parts or parts having the same or similar functions throughout the present disclosure. In addition, if the detailed descriptions of the prior art is not necessary for the features shown in the present disclosure, the detailed descriptions are omitted. The following embodiments illustrated with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary, and are only intended to explain the present disclosure but cannot be construed as a limitation to the present disclosure.

It can be understood by persons skilled in the art that all terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used herein have the same meanings as those generally understood by persons of ordinary skill in the art of the present disclosure, unless otherwise defined. It should be further understood that terms such as those defined in general dictionaries should be understood to have the same meanings as those in the context of the related art, and shall not be understood to have ideal or too formal meanings unless particularly defined herein.

Persons skilled in the art can understand that the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” used herein are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless specifically stated. It should be further understood that the term “include/comprise” used in the description of the present disclosure indicates the presence of a feature, an integer, a step, an operation, an element and/or a component, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and/or combinations thereof.

In the related art, a camera is usually disposed at the back side of a display panel, to implement the design of an under-screen camera. In such a design, incident light needs to pass through a display substrate to be acquired by the camera. However, the light transmittance of the display substrate in the related art is relatively low, such that the photographing effect of the under-screen camera is relatively poor. Although the light transmittance of the display substrate can be increased to some extent by changing the materials of the film layers, the effect cannot necessarily meet the expectations. In addition, because of the change in materials, wiring and pixel arrangement in the display substrates needs to be adaptively adjusted, which is difficult in design and subsequent testing, and brings high costs.

To solve the foregoing technical problems in the related art, the present disclosure provides an organic light-emitting display substrate, a method for manufacturing the same, a display panel, and a display device.

The technical solutions of the present disclosure and how the technical solutions of the present disclosure solve the foregoing technical problems are described in following the optional embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a schematic top view of a structure of an organic light-emitting display substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, the organic light-emitting display substrate includes a first display region M1 and a second display region M2. The first display region M1 is a photographing region, and the second display region M2 is a conventional display region.

FIG. 2 is a schematic top view of a structure of a first display region of an organic light-emitting display substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2, the organic light-emitting display substrate includes a plurality of microlens arrays 112 that are arranged at intervals. The plurality of microlens arrays 112 are disposed in the first display region M1.

FIG. 3 is a schematic sectional view of the organic light-emitting display substrate shown in FIG. 2 in an A-A direction. Referring to FIG. 3, the organic light-emitting display substrate further includes a base 101 and a pixel defining layer 111 that are laminated in sequence. The plurality of microlens arrays 112 are disposed on the pixel defining layer 111. The pixel defining layer 111 is provided with a plurality of openings 1111 penetrating the pixel defining layer 111. The orthographic projections of the plurality of microlens arrays 112 on the base 101 and the orthographic projections of the openings 1111 on the base 101 do not overlap. The openings 1111 corresponding to different pixels have different shapes and sizes. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the openings 1111 corresponding to red pixels and green pixels are hexagons, and the openings 1111 corresponding to blue pixels are pentagons.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a plurality of microlens arrays 112 are arranged in the first display region M1, that is, the photographing region. The plurality of microlens arrays 112 may increase the light transmittance of the first display region M1, such that the camera disposed below the first display region M1 can acquire more incident light, to improve the photographing effect.

Referring to FIG. 3 again, the organic light-emitting display substrate further includes a first electrode layer 11. The pixel defining layer 111 is disposed between the first electrode layer 110 and the plurality of microlens arrays 112. The first electrode layer 110 includes a plurality of first electrodes 1101. The orthographic projection of each opening 1111 on the base 101 is within the orthographic projection of one first electrode 1101 on the base 101.

In the organic light-emitting display substrate provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the microlens arrays 112 are disposed on the pixel defining layer 111. As the microlens arrays 112 can reduce the reflection of incident light, the light transmittance of the region, provided with the microlens arrays 112, of the organic light-emitting display substrate can be increased, such that the camera disposed below the region can acquire more incident light, thereby improving the photographing effect.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, each of microlens arrays 112 includes a plate 1122 and a plurality of spherical caps 1121 that are arranged in an array on the plate 1122. Bottom surfaces of the spherical caps 1121 are attached to one surface of the plate 1122.

The surface of the spherical cap 1121 is an arc-shaped surface. The arc-shaped surface has the convergence function of enabling more light to pass through the microlens arrays 112, thereby increasing the light transmittance of the first display region M1.

For example, the plate 1122 includes two opposite surfaces and a side face connecting the two surfaces. One of the two surfaces faces the first electrode layer 110, and the other one of the two surfaces faces the bottom surfaces of the spherical caps 1121.

In some embodiments, the distance between adjacent spherical caps 1121 is 0, such that the microlens arrays 112 can better improve the light transmission effect.

In some embodiments, the diameter of the spherical cap 1121 ranges from 2 μm to 10 μm, and the thickness of the microlens array 112 ranges from 1 μm to 2 μm. For example, the diameter of the spherical cap 1121 is 5 μm, and the thickness of the microlens array 112 is 1.5 μm.

In some embodiments, in the organic light-emitting display substrate provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the microlens arrays 112 is the same as the material of the pixel defining layer 111.

In some embodiments, in the organic light-emitting display substrate provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the microlens arrays 112 is photoresist. For example, the material of the microlens arrays 112 is photosensitive polyimide. Photosensitive polyimide can not only be used to form the microlens arrays 112 but also be used to form spacers 112′. Photosensitive polyimide has a relatively high light transmittance and may be patterned by light illumination. In addition, photosensitive polyimide has high thermal stability, high insulation, low dielectric constant, and relatively high mechanical strength.

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of refraction of a pixel defining layer in an organic light-emitting display substrate in the related art. As shown in FIG. 4, in the organic light-emitting display substrate that is not provided with the microlens arrays 112, when the incident angle of light incident into the pixel defining layer 111 is relatively small (for example, the first incident angle θ1), light can be reflected from the pixel defining layer 111. Once the incident angle is greater than a critical angle θ2 (for example, the second incident angle θ3) of refraction, light cannot be reflected from the pixel defining layer 111.

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of refraction of a pixel defining layer in an organic light-emitting display substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, it should be noted that structures of the film layers on the pixel defining layer 111 in the related art are basically the same as those of the film layers on the microlens arrays in the present disclosure. In this case, under the condition of the same external light, incident light projected to the pixel defining layer 111 in FIG. 4 is basically the same as the incident light projected on microlenses in FIG. 5.

As shown in FIG. 5, in the organic light-emitting display substrate provided with the microlens arrays 112, as the arc-shaped surface of the microlens array 112 has the convergence function, after light is incident into the microlens arrays 112 at angles θ1, θ2 and θ3 respectively, the incident light, after passing through the microlenses, is incident into the pixel defining layer 111 at angles β1 (β1<θ1), β2 (β2<θ2), and β3 (β3<θ3) respectively, such that light that originally cannot pass through the pixel defining layer 111 can pass through the pixel defining layer 111, to enter the film layers. Therefore, the transmittance of the display substrate is improved. Through verification, after the microlens arrays 112 are disposed, light transmittance in the first display region M1 of the display substrate is increased by two to three times.

FIG. 6 is a schematic top view of a structure of a second display region of an organic light-emitting display substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6, the organic light-emitting display substrate further includes a plurality of spacers 112′.

FIG. 7 is a schematic sectional view of the organic light-emitting display substrate shown in FIG. 6 in a B-B direction. Referring to FIG. 7, the pixel defining layer 111 is disposed between the spacers 112′ and the first electrode layer 110, and the spacers 112′ are disposed in the second display region M2. The orthographic projections of the spacers 112′ on the base 101 and the orthographic projections of the openings 1111 on the base 101 do not overlap.

In some embodiments, the material of the spacers 112′ is the same as the material of the microlens arrays 112.

The material of the spacers 112′ is the same as the material of the microlens arrays 112. That is, the microlens arrays 112 and the spacers 112′ may be formed at the same time. The microlens arrays 112 in the photographing region may be reused as the spacers 112′. That is, the microlens arrays 112 in the photographing region further plays the function of the spacers 112′, without providing the spacers 112′ additionally in the photographing region. Therefore, the manufacture of the microlens arrays 112 can be completed without additional procedures. That is, the light transmittance of the organic light-emitting display substrate can be improved without increasing production costs.

As shown in FIG. 8, the organic light-emitting display substrate provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure further includes a buffer layer 102, a thin-film transistor layer, a planarization layer 109, an organic light-emitting layer 113, and a second electrode layer 114.

As shown in FIG. 8, optionally, the display substrate further includes an encapsulation layer 115. The encapsulation layer 115 is disposed on the side, away from the base 101, of the second electrode layer 114. The encapsulation layer 115 can prevent water and oxygen from entering the organic light-emitting display substrate. In some embodiments, when the display substrate is a flexible substrate, the encapsulation layer 115 may be a thin-film encapsulation layer 115. When the display substrate is a rigid substrate, the encapsulation layer 115 may be a glass encapsulation layer 115.
