In other words, in the present embodiment, the first sub-pixel A in the unit region U1 and the first sub-pixel A in the unit region U2 are located on different sub-columns. In detail, the first sub-pixel A in the unit region U1 and the first sub-pixel A in the unit region U2 are located on adjacent sub-columns. Moreover, according to another aspect, the first sub-column of the unit region U2 is aligned to the second sub-column of the unit region U1.
Moreover, according to the above descriptions, the first sub-pixels A, the second sub-pixels B, the third sub-pixels C and the fourth sub-pixels D are respectively sub-pixel structures of the OLED display panel, and each of the first sub-pixels A, each of the second sub-pixels B, each of the third sub-pixels C and each of the fourth sub-pixels D respectively include a first electrode layer 120, a hole injection layer 130, a hole transport layer 140, a light-emitting layer 150, an electron injection layer 160 and a second electrode layer 170, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3.
The first electrode layer 120 is disposed on the substrate 100. In the present embodiment, the first electrode layer 120 includes a reflective conductor layer 122 and a transparent conductive layer 124 disposed on the reflective conductor layer 122. In detail, the thickness HA of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A is greater than the thickness HB of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B, and the thickness difference ΔH between the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A and the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B is between 20 nm and 50 nm. In an embodiment, the thickness difference ΔH between the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A and the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B is preferably between 25 nm and 35 nm. Moreover, the material of the reflective conductor layer 122 is, for example, metal, metal oxide, etc., and the material of the transparent conductive layer 124 is, for example, indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminium tin oxide, aluminium zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, or other suitable oxides.
The hole injection layer 130 and the hole transport layer 140 are sequentially disposed on the first electrode layer 120. The light-emitting layer 150 is disposed on the hole transport layer 140. In detail, the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B include a same light-emitting material 151, the light-emitting layer 150 of the third sub-pixel C includes a light-emitting material 152, and the light-emitting layer 150 of the fourth sub-pixel D includes a light-emitting material 153. Moreover, the light-emitting layer 150 is, for example, formed through an evaporation process in collaboration with a fine metal mask (FFM).
The electron injection layer 160 is disposed on the light-emitting layer 150. The second electrode layer 170 is disposed on the electron injection layer 160. The material of the second electrode layer 170 includes a transparent metal oxide conductive material such as indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminium tin oxide, aluminium zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, or other suitable oxides, or a stacked layer of at least two of the above materials, though the invention is not limited thereto. Moreover, a polarizer or a cover plate, etc. can be formed on the second electrode layer 170 according to an actual requirement, which is not limited by the invention.
It should be noticed that in the present embodiment, micro cavities can be respectively formed between the first electrode layer 120 and the second electrode layer 170 of the first sub-pixel A, between the first electrode layer 120 and the second electrode layer 170 of the second sub-pixel B, between the first electrode layer 120 and the second electrode layer 170 of the third sub-pixel C, and between the first electrode layer 120 and the second electrode layer 170 of the fourth sub-pixel D, such that the lights respectively emitted by the light-emitting material 151, the light-emitting material 152 and the light-emitting material 153 may have a micro cavity effect when passing through the corresponding micro cavity, and the first sub-pixels A, the second sub-pixels B, the third sub-pixels C and the fourth sub-pixels D respectively emit a first color light IA, a second color light IB, a third color light IC and a fourth color light ID, where the difference between the main peak of the first color light IA and the main peak of the second color light IB is within 50 nm in a wavelength range.
In other words, in the present embodiment, the light-emitting materials 151 contained in the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B is capable of emitting two color lights (i.e. the first color light IA and the second color light IB), where the difference between the main peaks of the two color lights is within 50 nm, and the reason thereof is as follows. According to the above descriptions, in the present embodiment, the thickness HA of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A is greater than the thickness HB of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B, and the thickness difference ΔH there between is from 20 nm to 50 nm, such that a length of the micro cavity of the first sub-pixel A and a length of the micro cavity of the second sub-pixel B are different, which may result in a fact that the light emitted by the light-emitting material 151 may have a wavelength shift phenomenon after passing through the micro cavity of the second sub-pixel B to produce the micro cavity effect thereon. In this way, in the present embodiment, by using the same light-emitting material 151 in the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and in the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B, and making the thickness difference ΔH between the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A and the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B to be between 20 nm and 50 nm, not only the display panel 10 can emit four color lights (i.e. the first color light IA, the second color light IB, the third color light IC and the fourth color light ID), but also the number of times of using the fine metal mask during fabrication of the light-emitting layer 150 is decreased, so as to decrease a production cost of the display panel 10 and simplify a fabrication process thereof.
Further, in an example, the light-emitting material 151 is a yellow light-emitting material, the light-emitting material 152 is a blue light-emitting material, and the light-emitting material 153 is a red light-emitting material. The first color light IA is a yellow light (with a main peak of 560 nm), the second color light IB is a green light (with a main peak of 530 nm), the third color light IC is a blue light (with a main peak of 460 nm), and the fourth color light ID is a red light (with a main peak of 620 nm). Namely, in the present example, the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D are respectively yellow sub-pixel, green sub-pixel, blue sub-pixel and red sub-pixel, though the invention is not limited thereto. In other examples, a color combination of the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D can be other suitable combinations. For example, when the light-emitting material 151 is the yellow light-emitting material, the first color light IA is the green light, and the second color light IB is the yellow light (i.e. the first sub-pixel A is the green sub-pixel, and the second sub-pixel B is the yellow sub-pixel). In detail, in the aforementioned case, the thickness HB of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B is greater than the thickness HA of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A, and the thickness difference ΔH there between is from 20 nm to 50 nm.
It should be noticed that in the present embodiment, the display panel 10 is a RGBY four-color display panel, and compared to the conventional RGB three-color display panel, as the yellow sub-pixels are added, the average power consumption of the RGBY four-color display panel is decreased and a color saturation NTSC is enhanced.
In another example, the light-emitting material 151 is the red light-emitting material, the light-emitting material 152 is the blue light-emitting material, and the light-emitting material 153 is the green light-emitting material. The first color light IA is the red light (with the main peak of 620 nm), the second color light IB is an orange light (with a main peak of 590 nm), the third color light IC is the blue light (with the main peak of 460 nm), and the fourth color light ID is the green light (with the main peak of 530 nm). Namely, in the present example, the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D are respectively red sub-pixel, orange sub-pixel, blue sub-pixel and green sub-pixel, though the invention is not limited thereto. In other examples, a color combination of the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D can be other suitable combinations. For example, when the light-emitting material 151 is the red light-emitting material, the first color light IA is an orange light, and the second color light IB is the red light (i.e. the first sub-pixel A is the orange sub-pixel, and the second sub-pixel B is the red sub-pixel). In detail, in the aforementioned case, the thickness HB of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B is greater than the thickness HA of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A, and the thickness difference ΔH there between is from 20 nm to 50 nm.
In still another example, the light-emitting material 151 is the green light-emitting material, the light-emitting material 152 is the blue light-emitting material, and the light-emitting material 153 is the red light-emitting material. The first color light IA is the green light (with the main peak of 530 nm), the second color light IB is a cyan light (with a main peak of 490 nm), the third color light IC is the blue light (with the main peak of 460 nm), and the fourth color light ID is the red light (with the main peak of 620 nm). Namely, in the present example, the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D are respectively green sub-pixel, cyan sub-pixel, blue sub-pixel and red sub-pixel, though the invention is not limited thereto. In other examples, a color combination of the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D can be other suitable combinations. For example, when the light-emitting material 151 is the green light-emitting material, the first color light IA is a cyan light, and the second color light IB is the green light (i.e. the first sub-pixel A is the cyan sub-pixel, and the second sub-pixel B is the green sub-pixel). In detail, in the aforementioned case, the thickness HB of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B is greater than the thickness HA of the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A, and the thickness difference ΔH there between is from 20 nm to 50 nm.

Differences between the display panel 42 of FIG. 19 and the display panel 30 of FIG. 13 are as follows. In the display panel 42 of FIG. 19, in the unit region U1 of the unit region row L1, the third sub-pixel C is located on the first sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C1) and is located on the first sub-row and the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R1 and the sub-row R2), the second sub-pixel B is located on the second sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C2) and is located on the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R2), the fourth sub-pixel D is located on the third sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C3) and is located on the first sub-row and the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R1 and the sub-row R2), and the first sub-pixel A is located on the second sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C2) and is located on the first sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R1). And in the unit region U2 of the unit region row L2, the third sub-pixel C is located on the first sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C2) and is located on the first sub-row and the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R3 and the sub-row R4), the second sub-pixel B is located on the second sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C3) and is located on the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R4), the fourth sub-pixel D is located on the third sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C4) and is located on the first sub-row and the second sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R3 and the sub-row R4), and the first sub-pixel A is located on the second sub-column (i.e. the sub-column C3) and is located on the first sub-row (i.e. the sub-row R3).
In other words, in the embodiment of FIG. 19, the shapes of the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D are rectangles, and the shapes of the first sub-pixel A and the second sub-pixel B are squares, and the first sub-pixel A and the second sub-pixel B are located between the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D and are arranged along the second direction D2.
According to another aspect, referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 19, in the present embodiment, the shapes of the first sub-pixel A and the second sub-pixel B using the same light-emitting material 151 and capable of emitting two color lights (i.e. the first color light IA and the second color light IB) with the main peak difference therebetween within 50 nm are all squares, and the first sub-pixel A and the second sub-pixel B respectively belong to different pixels, where the third sub-pixel C and the second sub-pixel B construct a pixel (i.e. the first pixel P1), and the fourth sub-pixel D and the first sub-pixel A construct a pixel (i.e. the second pixel P2).
Further, in the embodiments of FIG. 1 to FIG. 19, in the display panel 10 to the display panel 42, the length of the micro cavity is adjusted through the thickness difference ΔH between the transparent conductive layer 124 of the first sub-pixel A and the transparent conductive layer 124 of the second sub-pixel B, such that the light-emitting material 151 contained in the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and contained in the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B can emit the first color light IA and the second color light IB having the main peak difference therebetween within 50 nm. However, the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the required technical effect can be achieved by adjusting a thickness of the hole transport layer. A display panel of the other embodiment of the invention is described below with reference of FIG. 20. It should be noticed that only the differences between the various embodiments are described below, and the parts with the same technical contents are not repeated.
FIG. 20 is a cross-sectional view of a display panel along a section line I-I′ according to another embodiment of the invention. The top view of the display panel 44 of FIG. 20 is as that shown in FIG. 1, where a cross-section position of FIG. 20 may refer to the position of the section line I-I′ in FIG. 1. Moreover, the embodiment of FIG. 20 is similar to the embodiment of FIG. 3, so that the same or similar components are denoted by the same or similar symbols, and descriptions thereof are not repeated.
Referring to FIG. 20 and FIG. 3, differences between the display panel 44 of FIG. 20 and the display panel 10 of FIG. 3 are as follows. In the display panel 44 of FIG. 20, the first electrode layer 220 including the reflective conductor layer 222 and the transparent conductive layer 224 has substantially the same thickness in the first sub-pixel A, the second sub-pixel B, the third sub-pixel C and the fourth sub-pixel D, and a thickness HA′ of a hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A is different to a thickness HB′ of the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B. In detail, the thickness HA′ of the hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A is greater than the thickness HB′ of the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B, and the thickness difference ΔH′ between the hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A and the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B is between 20 nm and 50 nm. In an example, the thickness difference ΔH′ between the hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A and the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B is preferably between 25 nm and 35 nm.
In other words, in the embodiment of FIG. 20, in the display panel 44, the length of the micro cavity is mainly adjusted through the thickness difference ΔH′ between the hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A and the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B, such that the light-emitting material 151 contained in the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and contained in the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B can emit the first color light IA and the second color light IB having the main peak difference therebetween within 50 nm. In this way, in the present embodiment, by using the same light-emitting material 151 in the light-emitting layer 150 of the first sub-pixel A and the light-emitting layer 150 of the second sub-pixel B, and making the thickness difference ΔH′ between the hole transport layer 240 of the first sub-pixel A and the hole transport layer 240 of the second sub-pixel B to be between 20 nm and 50 nm, not only the display panel 40 can emit four color lights (i.e. the first color light IA, the second color light IB, the third color light IC and the fourth color light ID), but also the number of times of using the fine metal mask during fabrication of the light-emitting layer 150 is decreased, so as to decrease a production cost of the display panel 10 and simplify a fabrication process thereof.
Moreover, although design and arrangement of the sub-pixels in the display panel 44 are implemented according to the embodiment of FIG. 1, those skilled in the art should understand that design and arrangement of the sub-pixels in the display panel 44 can also be implemented according to the embodiments of FIG. 4 to FIG. 19.
In summary, in the display panel of the present invention, since each pixel is composed of two sub-pixels, the display panel of the invention may achieve effects of reduced pixel area and improved resolution. Moreover, in the display panel of the invention, the same light-emitting material contained in the light-emitting layer of the first sub-pixel and contained in the light-emitting layer of the second sub-pixel is capable of emitting two color lights with a main peak difference therebetween within 50 nm. In this way, not only the display panel is capable of emitting lights of four colors, but also a production cost of the display panel is decreased, and a fabrication process thereof is simplified.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the invention cover modifications and variations of this invention provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
