根据本公开一些实施例,像素界定结构包括具有第一开口的第一像素界定层。第一像素界定层位于基板上。第一像素界定层包括由第一亲疏材料形成的第一部分和由第二亲疏材料形成的第二部分。第一部分和第二部分在基板表面上的投影不交叠。第一像素界定层面向第一开口的侧面包括由第一亲疏材料形成的第一侧面和由第二亲疏材料形成的第二侧面。第一亲疏材料与第二亲疏材料的亲疏性不同。

图4A是示出根据本公开一个实施例的像素界定结构的制备方法的流程图。下面结合图1A-1D和2A-2D来描述图4A中的步骤S1-S2。
在步骤S1中,在基板上形成第一像素界定层,第一像素界定层具有第一开口,例如形成图1D和2D所示的第一像素界定层。如前所述,第一像素界定层包括第一部分和第二部分,第一部分和第二部分在基板表面上的投影不交叠,第一像素界定层面向所述第一开口的侧面包括由第一亲疏材料形成的第一侧面和由第二亲疏材料形成的第二侧面,其中,第一亲疏材料与第二亲疏材料的亲疏性不同。第一开口处用于形成功能层。
在步骤S2中,在第一像素界定层上形成第二像素界定层,例如形成图1A-1C和2A-2C所示的结构。如前所述,第二像素界定层具有第二开口。第二像素界定层在基板表面上的投影被第一像素界定层在基板表面上的投影完全覆盖。第二开口与第一开口的位置对应,且第二开口在基板表面上的投影完全覆盖第一开口在基板表面上的投影。
在一些实施例中,像素界定结构的制备方法还包括:步骤S3,根据在第一开口处待形成的功能层在第一部分(即亲液部分)的攀爬速度确定第一侧面与所述第二侧面的面积比。后面将结合图5来描述步骤S3。
图4B是示出根据本公开另一个实施例的像素界定结构的制备方法的流程图。下面结合图6-8来描述图4B中的步骤S11-S14。图6示出根据本公开一个实施例在形成第一亲疏材料层后的截面图。图7A是示出根据本公开一个实施例在图案化第一亲疏材料层后的俯视图;图7B是沿图7A中的线AA'截取的像素界定结构的截面图。图8是示出根据本公开一个实施例在形成第二亲疏材料层后的截面图。
在步骤S11中,在基板100上形成第一亲疏材料层300,形成如图6所示的结构。在一些实施例中,通过旋涂或蒸镀工艺形成第一亲疏材料层。如前所述,第一亲疏材料层可以包括SiO 2
在步骤S12中,图案化第一亲疏材料层300,以形成第一像素界定层的第一部分(例如亲液部分),例如形成图7A和7B所示的结构。图案化的第一亲疏材料层300靠近开口310的一侧包括齿形结构。如图7A所示,第一亲疏材料层300面向开口310的侧面在基板100上的投影为齿形。即,第一亲疏材料层面向开口的侧面为凸起310P与凹陷310C交替设置的面。在一些实施例中,图案化工艺包括光刻工艺,例如利用掩膜对第一亲疏材料层进行曝光显影,形成齿状的第一亲疏材料层。
在步骤S13中,在图案化的第一亲疏材料层300的基础上形成第二亲疏材料层400,形成例如图8所示的结构。如图8所示,第二亲疏材料层400的一部分填充开口310,另一部分覆盖第一亲疏材料层300(第一像素界定层的亲液部分)。在一些实施例中,通过旋涂或蒸镀工艺形成第二亲疏材料层。如前所述,第二亲疏材料层可以包括氟脂材料。
在步骤S14中,图案化第二亲疏材料层400,以在开口310的对应位置形成第一开口和第二开口,从而形成具有第一开口的第一像素界定层和具有第二开口的第二像素界定层,例如形成如图1B或2B所示的结构。图1B和图2B中,第二开口在基板表面上的投影均完全覆盖第一开口在基板表面上的投影。具体地,图1B示出第二开口大于第一开口;而图2B示出第二开口与第一开口的大小基本相同。如前所述,第一像素界定层面向第一开口的侧面包括由第一亲疏材料形成的第一侧面和由第二亲疏材料形成的第二侧面。
在步骤S14中可以采用与步骤S12中类似的图案化工艺,例如利用掩膜对第二亲疏材料进行曝光显影,区别在于,采用与步骤S12中不同的掩膜。采用不同的掩膜可以形成不同的第一开口和第二开口,从而可以形成不同的第一像素界定层和第二像素界定层。
在一些实施例中,采用一种掩膜形成如图1A-1D所示的第一像素界定层PDL1和第二像素界定层PDL2,其中,第二开口210大于第一开口110,第二像素界定层PDL2部分覆盖第一像素界定层PDL1。
在另一些实施例中,采用另一种掩膜形成如图2A-2D所示的第一像素界定层PDL1'和第二像素界定层PDL2',其中,第二开口210'等于第一开口110',第二像素界定层PDL2'完全覆盖第一像素界定层PDL1'。
根据本公开的实施例,还提供了一种包括前述像素界定结构的显示面板及其制备 方法。
图5是示出根据本公开的另一个实施例的显示面板的制备方法的流程图。图5中的步骤S11、S12、S13、S14与图4B中的相应步骤类似,因此下面将不再重复描述,而仅详细描述步骤S21、S22和S3。
在步骤S21中,利用湿法工艺在开口内形成包含功能层材料的溶液,像素界定结构围成用于形成功能层的开口,开口包括第一开口。在一些实施例中,湿法工艺包括喷墨打印工艺。在利用喷墨打印形成包含功能层材料的溶液时,墨水可以通过相应功能层材料作为溶质溶于芳香族溶剂来形成。
功能层例如为发光层、空穴注入层、空穴传输层或电子阻挡层。作为示例,上述各功能层可以选择如下材料。例如,发光层的材料可以选择例如聚对苯乙烯、聚噻吩、聚芴等。空穴传输层的材料可以选择PEDOT/PSS(掺杂聚苯胺)。电子阻挡层的材料可以选择Ir(ppz)3(Tris(phenylpyrazole)iridium;三(1-基吡唑)合铱)。
在步骤S22中,对包含功能层材料的溶液进行干燥处理。在一些实施例中,在真空腔中对溶液进行干燥处理,例如进行抽真空处理。根据不同的功能层材料,采用不同参数(例如温度、时间、真空度等)干燥后,可以在第一开口对应的位置得到相应的功能层。作为像素的组成部分,这些功能层的厚度均匀性将显著影响显示效果。每个像素单元位于一个第一开口中。
在得到相应的功能层后,可以测量功能层在不同方向的厚度。图9A、9B分别示出一个像素单元内功能层在纵向L和横向T上的厚度分布,其中横轴表示像素单元的宽度(即像素宽度),纵轴表示功能层的厚度(即薄膜厚度)。图9A、9B采用的第一像素界定层仅由亲水材料构成。
根据发光器件(例如OLED)的发光原理,期望功能层在整个像素宽度范围内厚度一致,都等于设计厚度。即期望的是:实际厚度在设计容差范围内的功能层对应的宽度(也称实际宽度)尽可能与设计宽度一样大,设计容差指实际厚度与设计厚度之差在一定范围内是可容忍的。实际厚度在设计容差范围内的功能层认为是平坦的,可以用于计算实际宽度。
图9A、9B分别示出像素在纵向L和横向T上的设计宽度为L 0和T 0,实际宽度为L 1和T 1,其中设计容差为10nm。根据图9A、9B的数据,可以计算出L 1/L 0=82%,T 1/T 0=73%。这样的结果表示:在纵向L和横向T上的厚度均匀性都较低,且在横向T上的厚度均 匀性低于纵向L上的厚度均匀性,即T 1/T 0<L 1/L 0
在前述实施例中,通过将第一像素界定层设计为面向第一开口的侧面包括由第一亲疏材料形成的第一侧面和由第二亲疏材料形成的第二侧面,则可以显著改善形成的薄膜厚度的均匀性,例如,能够达到L 1/L 0≈90%,T 1/T 0≈85%,并且使得在纵向L和横向T上的厚度均匀性接近,即L 1/L 0更接近T 1/T 0
在另一些实施例中,还可以通过调整第一侧面与第二侧面的面积比来进一步改善功能层的厚度均匀性。得到的功能层的厚度均匀性可以反映在开口处待形成的功能层在亲液部分的攀爬速度。由此,可以在步骤S3中根据在开口处待形成的功能层在亲液部分的攀爬速度确定第一侧面与第二侧面的面积比。
例如,如果测量出的结果为T 1/T 0<L 1/L 0,即在横向T上的厚度均匀性低于纵向L上的厚度均匀性,则可以减小横向T上第一像素界定层面向第一开口的第一表面与第二表面的面积比,以使在干燥过程中溶液的表面张力重新分布,进而使得纵向和横向上的溶质迁移作用一致,尽量达到T 1/T 0=L 1/L 0。这种情况下,可以减小第一表面的面积或增加第二表面的面积,或既减小第一表面的面积又增加第二表面的面积。
以图1-1D的第一侧面和第二侧面呈矩形齿状为例,可以在开口形状不变的情形下减小矩形齿的宽度,这样位于矩形齿顶部的第一侧面的面积将减小,而位于矩形齿根部的第二侧面的面积将相应增加。另外,第一像素界定层采用矩形齿的形状,对溶液会起到引流的作用,有助于进一步控制功能层的形貌。
类似地,如果测量出的结果为T 1/T 0>L 1/L 0,即在横向T上的厚度均匀性大于纵向L上的厚度不均匀性,则可以通过减小纵向L上第一像素界定层面向第一开口的第一表面与第二表面的面积比,以尽量达到T 1/T 0=L 1/L 0
根据本公开一些实施例,第一侧面与第二侧面的面积比与攀爬速度成反比。即,在某个方向上功能层材料在第一像素界定层的亲液部分的攀爬速度越快,则将该方向上的第一侧面与第二侧面的面积比调整为越小。通过减小纵向L或横向T上第一像素界定层面向第一开口的第一表面与第二表面的面积比,可以减弱功能层材料在第一像素界定层的侧面上的攀爬,从而进一步提高L 1/L 0或T 1/T 0,例如,能够达到L 1/L 0≈T 1/T 0≈90%。
图10A、10B分别示出根据本公开一些实施例在一个像素单元内功能层在纵向L和横向T上的厚度分布图。根据图10A、10B的数据,仍以设计容差为10nm为例,则 纵向L和横向T上的实际宽度分别为L 1≈115μm,T 1≈70μm。
比较图10A和10B,还可以看出:在纵向L上,功能层材料在第一像素界定层侧面上的攀爬比较明显;而在横向T上,功能层材料在像素单元的中间区域的堆积比较明显。
具体地,在纵向L上第一侧面上的亲液材料比第二侧面上的疏液材料起着更重要的作用,即在像素单元的两侧(第一像素界定层的侧面)上对溶质的吸引作用大于排斥作用,导致溶质在侧面上攀爬。在横向T上的情况正相反,第二侧面上的疏液材料比第一侧面上的亲液材料起着更重要的作用,即在像素单元的两侧上对溶质的排斥作用大于吸引作用,导致溶质被侧面排斥,从而堆积在远离侧面的中间区域。
这样的结果表示:在纵向L和横向T上功能层材料的溶质迁移作用不一致。在这种情况下,可以根据像素在纵向L和横向T上的设计宽度L 0和T 0,来确定在纵向L和横向T上功能层的厚度均匀性,并进而确定需要调整哪个方向上的溶质迁移,以使得不同方向上的溶质迁移作用一致。
例如,如果L 0≈135μm,T 0≈80μm,则可以计算出L 1/L 0≈85%,T 1/T 0≈87.5%。即,在横向T上的厚度均匀性大于纵向L上的厚度不均匀性,T 1/T 0>L 1/L 0。因此,可以调整纵向L上的溶质迁移作用,例如减小纵向L上亲液材料的吸引作用、增加疏液材料的排斥作用。即,可以减小纵向L上第一像素界定层面向第一开口的第一表面与第二表面的面积比,以尽量达到T 1/T 0=L 1/L 0,且与在横向T上的溶质迁移作用趋于一致。
相反,如果L 0≈128μm,T 0≈80μm,则可以计算出L 1/L 0≈90%,T 1/T 0≈87.5%。即,在横向T上的厚度均匀性低于纵向L上的厚度均匀性,T 1/T 0<L 1/L 0。因此,可以调整横向T的溶质迁移作用,例如在横向T上减小疏液材料的排斥作用、增加亲液材料的吸引作用。可以增加横向T上第一像素界定层面向第一开口的第一表面与第二表面的面积比,以使在干燥过程中溶液的表面张力重新分布,进而使得横向T上的溶质迁移作用与纵向L上的一致,尽量达到T 1/T 0=L 1/L 0
确定第一表面与第二表面的面积比还需要考虑溶液的成分、第一像素界定层的材料及侧面的坡度角等多个因素。在一些实施例中,第一像素界定层面向第一开口的侧面的坡度角在30度-90度的范围内。
在第一像素界定层PDL1的亲液部分靠近第一开口的一侧包括齿形结构的像素界 定结构中,第一表面与第二表面的面积比也可以通过齿的尺寸来反映。齿的尺寸可以根据形成的显示面板的分辨率来确定。显示面板的分辨率决定了像素尺寸(即第一开口的大小)和节距,即决定了像素界定层的结构,例如决定了像素界定单元(即PDL1)的尺寸。下面以长边为例描述如何确定齿的尺寸。例如,假设像素节距为P,像素长边尺寸为D p,则像素界定单元PDL1的尺寸为D 1=P-D p。假设在利用湿法工艺形成包含功能层材料的溶液时,保证不溢流的PDL2的最小尺寸为D 2,且PDL1和PDL2面向开口的坡度角都为90度,则齿的最大尺寸就是(D 1-D 2)/2。
例如,对于最大分辨率为160ppi(pixels per inch每英寸像素)的显示面板来说,以长边为例,设像素尺寸和节距分别为120μm和160μm,则PDL1的单元尺寸为40μm。假设在利用喷墨打印形成包含功能层材料的溶液时,保证不溢流的PDL2的最小尺寸为20μm,且PDL1和PDL2面向开口的坡度角都为90度,则齿的最大尺寸就是(40-20)/2=10μm。
不同分辨率的像素界定层PDL1中齿的可调节尺寸范围(即从零到最大尺寸的范围)可能是不同的。分辨率越高,齿的可调节尺寸范围越大。
从上述内容还可以看出,PDL1中齿的可调节尺寸范围还取决于PDL1和PDL2面向开口的坡度角的大小。另外,对于制备功能层材料的不同湿法工艺,保证不溢流的PDL2的最小尺寸也是不同的。即,PDL1中齿的可调节尺寸范围还取决于采用的湿法工艺。
根据本公开实施例,还提供了一种包括前述显示面板的显示装置。在一些实施例中,显示装置可以为:手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
