RELATED APPLICATIONS

The contents of the above applications are all incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein in their entirety.

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to the field of display technologies, and particularly relates to a touch display device.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

Flexible organic light emitting diode (OLED) display devices have advantages of active light emission, wide viewing angles, wide color gamut, high brightness, fast response speeds, low power consumption, and structural flexibility. These advantages make the flexible OLED display devices more and more popular in the market, and the flexible OLED display devices gradually replace liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and have become a mainstream of display technology.

The flexible OLED display devices are divided into top-emitting type and bottom-emitting type according to their light-emitting positions. Currently, the top-emitting type is a mainstream of mass production technology of the flexible OLED display devices. As shown in FIG. 1, it is a schematic view of a conventional top-emitting typed OLED touch display device. The conventional top-emitting typed OLED display device includes a thin film transistor (TFT) array layer 100, an anode layer 101, a pixel definition layer (PDL) 102, a photo spacer (PS) 103, an electroluminescent (EL) layer 104, a cathode layer 105, a thin film encapsulation (TFE) layer 106, and a touch layer 107. The touch layer 107 includes touch electrodes 1071 composed of a plurality of metal meshes. Each of the touch electrodes 1071 is disposed between two adjacent subpixels. Because a manufacturing process of the cathode layer 105 of the OLED display device happens after a fabrication of a TFT array substrate and an evaporation of luminescent material of the EL layer, and the cathode layer 105 is vapor-deposited on entire and upper surfaces of the pixel definition layer of the TFT substrate and the EL layer, there is only the TFE layer 106 located between the touch electrodes 1071 positioned on a surface of the TFE layer 106 and the cathode layer 105 of the OLED. A thickness of the TFE layer 106 is generally less than or equal to 10 um, which results in a large parasitic capacitance generated between the touch electrodes 1071 and the cathode layer 105. The greater the parasitic capacitance between the touch electrodes 1071 and the cathode layer 105, the greater a noise interference generated during a below display is coupled to the touch electrodes 1071, and the greater a charging time required for a touch node capacitance, thereby reducing a touch report rate.

Therefore, it is necessary to propose a technical solution to reduce the parasitic capacitance between the cathode and the touch electrodes, so as to prevent the touch report rate from decreasing.

The touch layer 30 is located on a side of the OLED display panel 20. The touch layer 30 is located on a out-light side of the OLED display panel 20. Specifically, the encapsulation layer 203 is located between the common cathode 2023 and the touch layer 30. As shown in FIG. 4, it is a schematic view of a touch layer of the touch display device in FIG. 2. The touch layer 30 includes a third buffer layer 301, bridging lines 302, a passivation layer 305, sensing electrodes 303, and driving electrodes 304.

The sensing electrodes 303 and the driving electrodes 304 are all disposed on the passivation layer 305, and two adjacent sensing electrodes 303 are electrically connected through the bridging lines 302. Each of the sensing electrodes 303 is connected to the bridging lines 302 through vias defined in the passivation layer 305. Two adjacent driving electrodes 304 are formed continuously. The driving electrodes 304 and the sensing electrodes 303 are electrically insulated. The driving electrodes 304 and the sensing electrodes 303 compose the touch electrodes 306.

The metal meshes are composed of metal lines 307.

In the embodiment, orthographic projections of the plurality of touch electrodes 306 on the touch display device partially overlap orthographic projections of the plurality of redundant cathodes 2024 on the touch display device. Because the redundant cathodes 2024 do not load electrical signals (floating), parasitic capacitance is not generated between the redundant cathodes 2024 and the touch electrodes 306, thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance generated between the plurality of touch electrodes and the cathode, preventing excessive parasitic capacitance from generating too much noise interference on the touch electrodes, which will cause a longer charging time required for a touch node capacitance, so as to prevent the touch report rate from decreasing.

In the embodiment, the touch electrodes include a plurality of metal meshes, an orthographic projection of each of the metal meshes on the touch display device partially overlaps the orthographic projections of the plurality of redundant cathodes on the touch display device, and each of the metal meshes surrounds one of the subpixels. At leash one of the redundant cathodes corresponds to part portions of one of the metal meshes.

In the embodiment, the orthographic projections of the plurality of redundant cathodes on the touch display device are evenly arranged along orthographic projections of the plurality of metal meshes on the touch display device, thereby making the plurality of redundant cathodes evenly distributed and making a resistance of the common cathode uniformly distributed in different areas.

In the embodiment, a percentage ratio of an area of the common cathode to a sum of the area of the common cathode and areas of the plurality of redundant cathodes is greater than or equal to 75% and is less than 100%, thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance between the cathode and the touch electrodes, meanwhile, ensuring the resistance of the common cathode is less than or equal to 30 ohms and ensuring that the resistance of the common cathode meets requirements. That is, a balance between smaller parasitic capacitance of the touch electrodes and smaller resistance of the common cathode is achieved. The percentage ratio may be, for example, 78%, 80%, 82%, 84%, 86%, 88%, 90%, or 95%.

As shown in FIG. 6, it is a first schematic view showing that the touch electrodes surround the subpixels and the orthographic projections of the touch electrodes on the touch display device partially overlap the orthographic projections of the redundant cathodes on the touch display device. The metal meshes are rhombic metal meshes composed of a plurality of metal lines 307. Each of the rhombic metal meshes is provided with one of the subpixels disposed therein. A shape of each of the subpixels is any one of rhombus, rectangle, and square. The metal meshes avoid the subpixels, and orthographic projections of the metal lines 307 that make up the metal meshes on the touch display device 40 is located between orthographic projections of two adjacent subpixels on the touch display device 40. Parts where the orthographic projections of the metal lines 307 on the touch display device and the orthographic projections of the redundant cathodes 2024 on the touch display device overlap are labeled as C (shown in dashed lines), and each of the overlapping parts C is located between two adjacent subpixels. Because an overlapping area between the metal lines 307 that make up the metal meshes and the common cathode 2023 is less than an area of an entire surface of the common cathode in prior art, thereby reducing parasitic capacitance between the touch electrodes and the common cathode 2023.

As shown in FIG. 7, it is a second schematic view showing that the touch electrodes surround the subpixels and the orthographic projections of the touch electrodes on the touch display device partially overlap the orthographic projections of the redundant cathodes on the touch display device.

In the embodiment, the OLED display panel 20 further includes partition portions 50 disposed on portions of the pixel definition layer 2019, and each of the portions is positioned between two adjacent subpixels. The partition portions 50 are configured to separate the common cathode 2023 from the plurality of redundant cathodes 2024. During an evaporation process of the cathode, because the partition portions 50 have a partition function, a film for evaporation can be naturally disconnected to form the cathode 2023 and the plurality of redundant cathodes 2024.

As shown in FIG. 5, it is a schematic view of the partition portion of the touch display device in FIG. 2. The partition portions 50 are grooves defined in the insulating layer.

The redundant cathodes 2024 are disposed in the grooves. A cross section of each of the partition portions 50 is circular or square.

Specifically, the grooves are defined in the pixel definition layer 2019. In other embodiments, the partition portions 50 may also be inverted trapezoid humps disposed on the pixel definition layer 2019. The redundant cathodes 2024 in the grooves are in a floating state and are not connected to any external metal circuits or electrodes, thereby effectively preventing the parasitic capacitance from being generated between the touch electrodes composed of the metal meshes and the cathodes below them, which is beneficial to achieve a high touch report rate and improve touch sensitivity.

Specifically, the groove includes a first groove 501 and a second groove 502 communicated with the first groove 501. The first groove 501 has the first width D1, the second groove 502 has the second width D2, and the redundant cathode is disposed in the first groove 501.

In other embodiments, a longitudinal section of the groove may also be an inverted trapezoid. A depth of the groove is less than or equal to a thickness of the pixel definition layer 2019.

In the embodiment, a dimension of each of the partition portions along a width direction of the metal lines 307 is greater than or equal to a width of one of the metal lines 307, thereby making a dimension of each of the redundant cathodes 2024 is greater than a width of one of the metal lines 307 in the width direction of the metal lines 307, and thereby maximizing an overlapping area of the redundant cathodes 2024 and the metal lines 307 in the width direction of the metal lines 307, so as to further reduce the parasitic capacitance of the touch electrodes. A dimension of the groove in the width direction of the metal lines 307 ranges from 4 um to 6 um, for example, 5 um, whereas, the width of one of the metal lines 307 is 3 um.
