DETAILED DESCRIPTION
In order to make objects, technical details and advantages of the embodiments of the invention apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments will be described in a clearly and fully understandable way in connection with the drawings related to the embodiments of the invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are just a part but not all of the embodiments of the invention. Based on the described embodiments herein, those skilled in the art can obtain other embodiment(s), without any inventive work, which should be within the scope of the invention.
FIG. 1a illustrates a top schematic view of a display panel of a TFT-LCD, the display panel includes a display area 001 and a non-display area 002. The display panel includes an array substrate 41 and an opposed substrate 42 that are opposite to each other, and a liquid crystal layer 50 (as illustrated in FIG. 1b) located between the array substrate and the opposed substrate. The display area 001 and the non-display area 002 on the opposed substrate 42 correspond to the display area 001 and the non-display area 002 on the array substrate 41, respectively. The display area 001 is configured to emit or transmit light, the non-display area 002 is configured to divide the display area, and the following embodiments can be the same as that.
For example, as illustrated in FIG. 1a, the array substrate includes a plurality of gate lines 71 and a plurality of data lines 72, the gate lines 71 intersect and are insulated from the data lines 72. For example, the gate lines 71 extend along a lateral direction, the data lines 72 extend along a vertical direction. For example, the gate lines 71 intersect the data lines 72 to define a plurality of sub-pixels 10. For example, a sub-pixel 10 further includes a switching element and a pixel electrode 24 connected with the switching element. For example, the switching element is a thin film transistor 36.
It is to be noted that, sub-pixels 10 can be defined by a plurality of gate lines 71 and a plurality of data lines 72, and limitations are not imposed thereto. For example, a sub-pixel 10 includes a gate line, a data line, a pixel electrode and a switching element. A sub-pixel 10 is the minimum unit to display in the array substrate or the opposed substrate. For example, the display area 001 corresponds to an area to emit or transmit light of a plurality of sub-pixels. A non-display area 002 is disposed between two adjacent sub-pixels.
It is to be noted that, the display area 001 and the non-display area 002 in the embodiments of the present invention correspond to microscopic structure of the display panel. In practical application, the microscopic display area 001 and the microscopic non-display area 002 are hard to be separated by human eyes, the display area 001 and the non-display area 002 form an image display area (picture displaying area) of a display panel.
FIG. 1b illustrates a sectional schematic view of a TFT-LCD. In a display process of a TFT-LCD, because light is transmitted and refracted, and different materials are provided with different light transmission rates and different indexes of refraction with regard to different wavelengths. For example, a pixel unit includes a plurality of sub-pixels to display different colors to realize color display. For example, a pixel unit in an array substrate of a TFT-LCD can includes a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, which can be labeled with R, G, B, respectively. In a process of performing a picture display of a TFT-LCD, in a case that light emitted by a backlight source is vertically incident on an array substrate of a TFT-LCD, light can be reflected directly. In a case that light emitted by a backlight source is incident on an array substrate at an inclined angle, because of an incident angle, light is reflected or transmitted after being incident on an array substrate. In this case, a problem of color cross arises at a side viewing angle of a TFT-LCD. As illustrated in FIG. 1b, a green sub-pixel leaks light (for example, G sub-pixel of FIG. 1b leaks light). Therefore, color cast arises when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color.
It is to be noted that, a pixel can include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, and limitations are not imposed thereto. Moreover, an arrangement of sub-pixels is not limited to an array arrangement in which sub-pixels in each column and each row are aligned. For example, sub-pixels in each column and each row can also be staggered by such as a half width or height of a sub-pixel.
FIG. 1c is a top schematic view of an array substrate at an area “C” indicated by a dotted frame of a TFT-LCD in FIG. 1a. A plate-shaped pixel electrode 24 is electrically connected with a drain electrode 25 through a via hole 26′. A slit-shaped common electrode 29 is insulated from the pixel electrode 24, and is disposed on a layer where the pixel electrode 24 is located. For example, a gate line 71 can be formed in the same layer with a gate electrode 21, and a source electrode 25′ can be formed in the same layer with a data line 72. FIG. 1c also illustrates an active layer 23.
At least one embodiment of the present invention provide a display panel comprising an array substrate and an opposed substrate that are opposite to each other, and a liquid crystal layer located between the array substrate and the opposed substrate. The display panel includes a display area and a non-display area, a phase shift layer is disposed at an area corresponding to the non-display area of the array substrate, the phase shift layer is configured to allow light passing through the phase shift layer to undergo phase shift.
A phase shift layer is disposed at an area corresponding to the non-display area of the display panel, the phase shift layer is configured to allow light beam incident thereon to undergo phase shift. In a display panel with a phase shift layer provided in a non-display area, light is reflected and transmitted after being incident on a lower substrate of a display panel, the phase shift layer can shift the phase of light which is reflected and transmitted. Therefore, energy (light strength) of light beam after being shifted in phase and energy (light strength) of light beam before being shifted in phase counteract each other, therefore, a problem of light leakage is avoided, and a problem of color cast when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color picture is solved.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, a black matrix is disposed at the non-display area, and an orthographic projection of the phase shift layer on the array substrate coincides with an orthographic projection of the black matrix at the non-display area on the array substrate.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, the phase shift layer is located above all layers at a side of the array substrate close to the liquid crystal layer.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, a common electrode is disposed on the opposed substrate, a pixel electrode is disposed on the array substrate, and the phase shift layer is located on a layer where the pixel electrode is located.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, the phase shift layer is insulated from the pixel electrode, and a bias voltage is applied to the phase shift layer to drive liquid crystals in an area covered by (corresponding to) the phase shift layer to rotate.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, a first transparent electrode and a second transparent electrode are disposed on the array substrate, the first transparent electrode is away from the liquid crystal layer, the second transparent electrode is close to the liquid crystal layer, the phase shift layer is located on the second transparent electrode.
For example, in a display panel of an embodiment of the present invention, the first transparent electrode is a pixel electrode, the second transparent electrode is a common electrode, or the first transparent electrode is a common electrode, the second transparent electrode is a pixel electrode.
Embodiments are given as follows to further illustrate.
First Embodiment
As illustrated in FIG. 2a, a display panel comprises an array substrate 41 and an opposed substrate 42 that are opposite to each other, and a liquid crystal layer 50 located between the array substrate 41 and the opposed substrate 42. The display panel includes a display area 001 and a non-display area 002 (can also refer to FIG. 1a), a phase shift layer 28 is disposed at an area corresponding to the non-display area of the array substrate 41, the phase shift layer 28 is configured to allow light passing through the phase shift layer to undergo phase shift.
When a display panel displays pictures, as illustrated in FIG. 2a, suppose light beam 1 and light beam 2 are incident on the non-display area 002 of the display panel, light beam 1 is irradiated on the phase shift layer, phase of the light beam 1 changes, light beam 2 does not pass through the phase shift layer, therefore, phase of the light beam 2 does not change. Therefore, energy (light strength) of light beam 1 which changes in phase and energy (light strength) of light beam 2 which does not change in phase counteract each other. Area of reference numeral 60 presents energy counteraction area, therefore, a problem of light leakage does not arise, and a problem of color cast when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color picture is solved. Even if an alignment error arises in a cell-assembling process, a problem of light leakage can also be solved by the phase shift layer.
For example, in the display panel provided by the embodiment, a phase shift layer 28 is disposed at the non-display area 002 of the display panel, and the phase shift layer 28 is configured to allow light passing through the phase shift layer to undergo phase shift by 180 degrees, therefore, energy of light beam which changes in phase and energy of light beam which does not change in phase counteract each other completely, a problem of light leakage does not arise, and display effect of a display panel can be further improved.
For example, as illustrated in FIG. 2a, a color filter layer 35 is disposed on a second base substrate 20′ of an opposed substrate 42, the color filter layer 35 is configured to filter light, so as to achieve color image display.
For example, FIG. 3 is a comparison schematic view of light before and after phase shift. If no phase shift layer is provided, as illustrated at a left portion of FIG. 3, light is transmitted directly, no phase shift arises. If a phase shift layer is provided, as illustrated at a right portion of FIG. 3, phase of light passing through the phase shift layer 28 changes, for example, the phase shifts by 180 degrees. In order to distinguish easily, light beam arising phase shift is labeled 501. Therefore, by providing the phase shift layer, an aim to counteract energy of light beam 501 which changes in phase and energy of light beam 502 which does not change in phase can be realized.
For example, a working principle of a phase shift layer to allow light to undergo phase shift can refer to FIG. 3, for example, an formula is as follows:

Δφ=2π(n−1)d/λ

Wherein Δφ is a phase (for example, Δφ is π), λ is a wavelength, n is an index of refraction, d is a thickness of a phase shift layer.

For example, in an example of the embodiment, a black matrix 30 is disposed at the non-display area 002, an orthographic projection of the black matrix 30 on the array substrate 41 covers an orthographic projection of the phase shift layer 28 on the array substrate 41. For example, the black matrix is disposed on the opposed substrate 42. For example, the black matrix 30 is disposed on the second base substrate 20′ of the opposed substrate 42.
For example, in an example of the embodiment, the array substrate 41 includes a first base substrate 20, and an orthographic projection of the phase shift layer 28 on the first base substrate 20 coincides with an orthographic projection of the black matrix 30 on the first base substrate 20.
An orthographic projection of the phase shift layer 28 on the first base substrate 20 coincides with an orthographic projection of the black matrix 30 on the first base substrate 20, which means that an orthographic projection of the phase shift layer 28 on the first base substrate 20 covers just an orthographic projection of the black matrix 30 on the first base substrate 20. In this way, when a display panel displays pictures and light beam is incident on the first base substrate 20, light leakage by the sub-pixel can be well avoided. Meanwhile, no more light shielding is increased, and no more shadow is formed. Therefore, a problem of color cast when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color picture is solved.
For example, in an example of the embodiment, the phase shift layer 28 is located above all layers at a side of the array substrate 41 close to the liquid crystal layer 50. In this way, when a display panel displays pictures and light beam is incident on the second base substrate 20, light leakage by the sub-pixel can be well avoided. Meanwhile, no more light shielding is increased, and no more shadow is formed. Therefore, a problem of color cast when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color picture is solved.
For example, the above-mentioned display panel can be applied to a display panel of twisted nematic (TN) mode, and can also be applied to a display panel of advanced-super dimensional switching (ADS) mode.
In a case that the above-mentioned display panel is applied to a display panel of twisted nematic (TN) mode, as illustrated in FIG. 2b, a common electrode 29 is disposed on the opposed substrate 42, a pixel electrode 24 is disposed on the array substrate, the pixel electrode 24 and the common electrode 29 disposed on the opposed substrate 42 form an electric field to control liquid crystals to rotate, and the phase shift layer 28 is located on a layer where the pixel electrode 24 is located.
By forming a phase shift layer on a pixel electrode layer, when light beam is incident on the array substrate, phase shift is generated when light passes through the phase shift layer, for example, the phase shifts by 180 degrees, energy of light whose phase have been shifted counteracts energy of light beam which does not pass through the phase shift layer, therefore, light leakage can not arise, and then a problem of color cast when a TFT-LCD displays a pure color picture is solved.
For example, with regard to a display panel of twisted nematic (TN) mode, the phase shift layer 28 is insulated from the pixel electrode 24. A bias voltage is applied to the phase shift layer 28 and configured to drive liquid crystals in an area (an area corresponding to the phase shift layer) which is covered by the phase shift layer 28 to rotate and retain vertical, together with the common electrode 29 disposed on the opposed substrate 42, so that alignment of liquid crystals in the non-display area is controlled, and liquid crystals in the non-display area is kept at the normal black state when power is on. Therefore, light leakage can be well avoided, and contract ratio of a liquid crystal display panel is improved.
In a case that the above-mentioned display panel is applied to a display panel of ADS mode, a first transparent electrode and a second transparent electrode are disposed on the array substrate, the first transparent electrode is away from the liquid crystal layer, the second transparent electrode is close to the liquid crystal layer, the phase shift layer is located on the second transparent electrode.
For example, in a case that the above-mentioned display panel is applied to a display panel of HADS mode, the first transparent electrode is a pixel electrode, the second transparent electrode is a common electrode. In a case that the above-mentioned display panel is applied to a display panel of ADS mode, the first transparent electrode is a common electrode, the second transparent electrode is a pixel electrode. FIG. 2c is a schematic view of a display panel of HADS mode provided by an embodiment of the invention.
In order to better illustrate the solutions of the embodiments and the position of the phase shift layer, FIG. 2a provides an array substrate of a display panel includes the following layers sequentially disposed on a first base substrate 20: a gate electrode 21, a gate insulating layer 22, an active layer 23, a source electrode 25′ and a drain electrode 25, a first passivation layer 26, a pixel electrode 24, a second passivation layer 27 and a phase shift layer 28 located on the second passivation layer 27. It is to be noted that, the phase shift layer 28 can also be disposed on a layer where the pixel electrode is located, and then the second passivation layer 27 is not necessary. In the display panel provided by the embodiment, a material of the phase shift layer can be a material capable of shifting the phase of light beam, for example, an alloy of silicon and molybdenum et al., limitations are not imposed thereto. The following embodiments can be the same as that.
For example, in an example of the embodiment, forming the phase shift layer in the array substrate includes: forming a phase shift thin film by a magnetron sputtering process, and patterning the phase shift thin film to form a pattern of the phase shift layer by a photolithography process.

As illustrated in FIG. 4, the array substrate includes following layers on a first base substrate 20: a gate insulating layer 22 (a structure of a thin film transistor can refer to FIG. 1a and FIGS. 2a-2c), a first transparent electrode layer 32, a passivation layer 34 and a second transparent electrode layer 33 located on the passivation layer 34, and a phase shift layer 28 located on the second transparent electrode layer 33. A data line 31 is located at an area covered by the phase shift layer 28. The data line 31 is electrically connected with the source electrode 25′ of the thin film transistor. For example, the thin film transistor includes a gate electrode 21, a gate insulating layer 22, an active layer 23, a source electrode 25′ and a drain electrode 25.
For example, with regard to the ADS mode, a first transparent electrode is a common electrode, a second transparent electrode is a pixel electrode; with regard to the HADS mode, a first transparent electrode is a pixel electrode, a second transparent electrode is a common electrode.
Taking a display panel with a TN mode as an example, the manufacturing method thereof includes following steps.
A thin film transistor is formed on a first base substrate, for example, the first base substrate can be a transparent glass base substrate or silicon base substrate. The thin film transistor includes a gate layer, a gate insulating layer, an active layer, a source/drain electrode layer. The gate layer is subject to an exposure process, a development process, an etching process, and a striping process to form a gate electrode. The source/drain electrode layer is subject to an exposure process, a development process, an etching process, and a striping process to form a source electrode and a drain electrode.
