Abstract

A display panel is provided. The display panel has a display region and a non-display region. The non-display region has an aperture region and a non-aperture region surrounding the aperture region. The display panel includes a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed in the display region. The display panel includes a plurality of first light absorbing patterns and a plurality of second light absorbing patterns disposed in the non-aperture region. The plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are configured to absorb different colors of lights.

Claims (29)

1. A display panel having a display region and a non-display region, wherein the non-display region has an aperture region and a non-aperture region surrounding the aperture region, and the display panel comprises:

a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed in the display region; and

a plurality of first light absorbing patterns and a plurality of second light absorbing patterns disposed in the non-aperture region,

wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are configured to absorb different colors of lights.

2. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are arranged in a staggered manner.

3. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a ratio of a width of the non-aperture region to a half of a width of the aperture region is greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 1.

4. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a light shielding layer with a ring shape overlapping a part of the aperture region and at least a part of the non-aperture region.

5. The display panel as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a ratio of a width of an overlapping region that the light shielding layer overlaps the non-aperture region to a width of the non-aperture region is greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 1.

6. The display panel as claimed in claim 4 , wherein an aperture of the light shielding layer overlaps the aperture region in a normal direction of the display panel.

7. The display panel as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a ratio of an area of the overlapping region that the light shielding layer overlaps the non-aperture region to an area of the non-aperture region is greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 1.

8. The display panel as claimed in claim 4 , wherein an area of an overlapping region that the light shielding layer overlaps the non-aperture region is greater than or equal to 1 mm 2 and less than or equal to 8 mm 2 .

9. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the plurality of first light absorbing patterns has different portions at different heights.

10. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the plurality of second light absorbing patterns has different portions at different heights.

11. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a substrate comprising a plurality of slits disposed in the non-display region, wherein part of the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and part of the plurality of the second light absorbing patterns are disposed in the plurality of slits.

12. The display panel as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the substrate further comprises a plurality of non-slit portions disposed between adjacent ones of the plurality of slits respectively, and other part of the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and other part of the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are disposed on the plurality of non-slit portions.

13. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of third light absorbing patterns disposed in the non-aperture region, wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns, the plurality of second light absorbing patterns and the plurality of third light absorbing patterns absorb different colors of lights.

14. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an area of one of the plurality of first light absorbing patterns is different from an area of one of the plurality of second light absorbing patterns.

15. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a number of the plurality of first light absorbing patterns is different from a number of the plurality of second light absorbing patterns.

16. The display panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of driving elements electrically connected to the plurality of light-emitting elements respectively, wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are not electrically connected to the plurality of driving elements.

17. A display device, comprising:

a sensing element; and

a display panel having a display region and a non-display region, wherein the non-display region has an aperture region and a non-aperture region surrounding the aperture region, and the display panel comprises:

a plurality of light-emitting elements disposed in the display region; and

a plurality of first light absorbing patterns and a plurality of second light absorbing patterns disposed in the non-aperture region,

wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are configured to absorb different colors of lights,

wherein the sensing element is disposed corresponding to the aperture region.

18. The display device as claimed in claim 17 , further comprising a light shielding layer with a ring shape overlapping a part of the aperture region and at least a part of the non-aperture region.

19. The display panel as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the plurality of first light absorbing patterns and the plurality of second light absorbing patterns are arranged in a staggered manner.

20. The display panel as claimed in claim 17 , wherein a ratio of a width of the non-aperture region to a half of a width of the aperture region is greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 1.
