OLED display panel and manufacturing method thereof
An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panel and manufacturing method thereof are provided. A light convergence layer is disposed between an encapsulation layer and a color filter layer in the OLED display panel, and a light divergence layer is disposed between the color filter layer and a cover plate. Through converging light by the light convergence layer, more light passes through the color filter layer. The light passing through the color filter layer is then diverged by the light divergence layer, thereby increasing brightness and chromaticity of the OLED display panel.
