Abstract

A display panel including a metal film, an adhesive layer disposed on the metal film, a first resin substrate disposed on the adhesive layer, light-emitting elements disposed above the first resin substrate, and a second resin substrate disposed above the light-emitting elements. The adhesive layer includes contact portions in contact with the metal film and gaps are present between the contact portions where the adhesive layer is not in contact with the metal film.

Claims (30)

1. A display panel comprising:

a metal film;

an adhesive layer disposed on the metal film;

a first resin substrate disposed on the adhesive layer;

light emitting elements disposed above the first resin substrate; and

a second resin substrate disposed above the light-emitting elements, wherein

the adhesive layer includes contact portions in contact with the metal film and gaps are present between the contact portions where the adhesive layer is not in contact with the metal film.

2. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

a surface area where the adhesive layer is in contact with the first resin substrate is greater than a total surface area where the contact portions are in contact with the metal film.

3. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

the adhesive layer comprises:

a first adhesive layer in contact with the first resin substrate; and

a second adhesive layer composed of the contact portions.

4. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

the second resin substrate is a polarizing plate.

5. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

a water absorption rate of a material of the first resin substrate is 0.3%.

6. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

a material of the first resin substrate is polyethylene terephthalate.

7. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

the first resin substrate and the second resin substrate are flexible substrates, and

the display panel is a flexible panel.

8. The display panel of claim 1 , wherein

the metal film includes one or more of stainless steel, aluminum, and copper.

9. A display panel manufacturing method comprising:

forming light-emitting elements and a second resin substrate above a flexible substrate to form a light-emitting element substrate;

attaching the light-emitting element substrate onto a first resin substrate to form a panel element;

attaching an adhesive layer onto a metal film, where the adhesive layer includes contact portions in contact with the metal film and gaps are present between the contact portions where the adhesive layer is not in contact with the metal film;

attaching the panel element onto the adhesive layer to form a flexible display panel; and

applying a temperature treatment to the flexible display panel.
