DISPLAY PANELS, MANUFACTURING METHODS THEREOF, AND DISPLAY DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18357200 titled 'DISPLAY PANELS, MANUFACTURING METHODS THEREOF, AND DISPLAY DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display panel and its manufacturing methods, as well as display devices incorporating this panel. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The display panel consists of several layers, including a substrate, a thin film transistor layer, an insulation film, a first conductive layer, a light-emitting layer, a functional layer, and a second conductive layer.
- The insulation film has protrusions that stick out from its surface.
- The first conductive layer includes pixel electrodes and auxiliary electrodes, which are insulated from the pixel electrodes.
- The auxiliary electrodes are positioned above the protrusions and have a higher height than the pixel electrodes in a vertical direction.
- The functional layer has through holes that are located above the protrusions.
- The second conductive layer is connected to the protruding parts of the auxiliary electrodes through the through holes.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This display panel can be used in various electronic devices, such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and computer monitors.
- It can provide high-quality and efficient displays with improved pixel electrode insulation and electrical connectivity.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The insulation film with protrusions helps to prevent short circuits and improve the overall performance of the display panel.
- The auxiliary electrodes insulated from the pixel electrodes ensure better electrical isolation and prevent interference between adjacent pixels.
- The through holes in the functional layer allow for a reliable connection between the second conductive layer and the protruding parts of the auxiliary electrodes.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced display quality with improved insulation and electrical connectivity.
- Reduced risk of short circuits and interference between pixels.
- Increased reliability and durability of the display panel.
- Potential for more efficient and cost-effective manufacturing methods.
