Abstract

A light-transmitting display panel, a manufacturing method thereof and a display device. The light-transmitting display panel includes a substrate and a light-emitting device layer disposed on the substrate, the light-emitting device layer including a plurality of pixel units and a shielding layer with a plurality of openings, each of the pixel units disposed correspondingly in one of the openings, and each pixel unit including a transparent light transmission portion and a plurality of sub-pixels emitting light of at least three colors distributed around the transparent light transmission portion.

Claims (34)

1 . A light-transmitting display panel, comprising:

a substrate; and

a light-emitting device layer disposed on the substrate, the light-emitting device layer comprising a plurality of pixel units and a shielding layer with a plurality of openings, the plurality of pixel units comprising a transparent light transmission portion and a plurality of sub-pixels emitting light of at least three colors,

sub-pixels of two colors of the at least three colors are set adjacent to each other, and set opposite to sub-pixels of a third color;

the transparent light transmission portion is located between the sub-pixels of the two colors and the sub-pixels of the third color;

the shielding layer is disposed on a side of the plurality of pixel units away from the substrate.

2 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 1 , further comprising:

a transparent light-conductive layer located on a side of the plurality of pixel units away from the substrate.

3 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 2 , wherein a plurality of protrusions is formed on a side of the transparent light-conductive layer away from the substrate and the plurality of protrusions corresponds to the plurality of sub-pixels.

4 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 3 , wherein, in a cross section of each protrusion of the plurality of protrusions along a direction perpendicular to the substrate, a shape of a contour line of a side of each protrusion away from the substrate comprises one of a zigzag line shape, a semicircular shape and a parabolic shape.

5 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 2 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion and the transparent light-conductive layer are made of light-transmitting and color-mixable materials.

6 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 5 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion and the transparent light-conductive layer are made of same materials.

7 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 6 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion and the transparent light-conductive layer are made of transparent polyimides.

8 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 2 , wherein the shielding layer and the transparent light-conductive layer are disposed in a same layer.

9 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 1 , wherein the shielding layer comprises a plurality of black matrixes.

10 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 1 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion is located between sub-pixels of three adjacent colors.

11 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 10 , wherein an area of the red sub-pixel is smaller than an area of the blue sub-pixel and an area of the green sub-pixel is smaller than the area of the blue sub-pixel.

12 . A manufacturing method comprising:

forming a plurality of pixel units on a substrate, each pixel unit of the plurality of pixel units comprising a transparent light transmission portion and the plurality of sub-pixels emitting light of at least three colors distributed around the transparent light transmission portion; and

forming a shielding layer between adjacent pixel units, the shielding layer comprising a plurality of openings corresponding to the plurality of pixel units one-to-one, wherein the shielding layer is disposed on a side of the plurality of pixel units away from the substrate.

13 . The manufacturing method of claim 12 , wherein forming the plurality of pixel units on the substrate further comprises:

forming a plurality of sub-pixels emitting light of at least three colors around each light-transmitting area used to form a transparent light transmission portion on the substrate; and

depositing light-transmitting and color-mixable materials to form a transparent light transmission portion in a light-transmitting area used to form the transparent light transmission portion and form the transparent light-conductive layer on a side of the plurality of sub-pixels away from the substrate.

14 . The manufacturing method of claim 13 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion and the transparent light-conductive layer are made of same materials and manufactured in a same process.

15 . The manufacturing method of claim 14 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion and the transparent light-conductive layer are made of transparent polyimides.

16 . The manufacturing method of claim 13 , wherein the light-transmitting area comprises a transparent layer disposed on the substrate, the transparent light transmission portion is disposed on the transparent layer, and the transparent layer comprises a blocking layer, an insulation layer, and a flat layer.

17 . The manufacturing method of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of protrusions is formed at positions each corresponding to one sub-pixel of the plurality of sub-pixels.

18 . A display device, comprising the light-transmitting display panel of claim 1 .

19 . A light-transmitting display panel, comprising:

a substrate; and

a light-emitting device layer disposed on the substrate, the light-emitting device layer comprising a plurality of pixel units and a shielding layer with a plurality of openings,

the plurality of pixel units comprising a transparent light transmission portion and a plurality of sub-pixels emitting light of at least three colors distributed around the transparent light transmission portion;

the shielding layer is disposed on a side of the plurality of pixel units away from the substrate.

20 . The light-transmitting display panel of claim 1 , wherein the transparent light transmission portion is located between sub-pixels of three adjacent colors.
