DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0020] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with the technical matters, structural features, achieved objects, and effects with reference to the accompanying drawings as follows. It is clear that the described embodiments are part of embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments to those of ordinary skill in the premise of no creative efforts obtained, should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is structural schematic drawing of an OLED display module of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The OLED display module comprises: a cathode plate 100, an anode plate 200 and a luminance function layer 300 sandwiched in between the cathode plate 100 and the anode plate 200. Multiple reflectivities among multiple layers of the luminance function layer 300 are satisfied with a following relationship, which is a reflectivity of a material of the luminance function layer 300 near to the cathode plate 100 is greatly higher than a reflectivity of another material of the luminance function layer 300 distant from the cathode plate 100. Specifically, the luminance function layer 300 generates a visible light with 500 nm±25 nm luminance wavelength range.

[0022] Particularly, the luminance function layer 300 comprises sequentially along a direction from the cathode plate 100 to the anode plate 200 but is not limited to following functional layers: an electron ejection layer 310, an electron transport layer 320, a light emitting layer 330, a hole transport layer 340, a hole ejection layer 350, etc.

[0023] The solution of the present invention is to change a structure of the OLED and to propose a new structure of decreasing the reflection of the cathode plate 100. According to the Fresnel equation of a penetrating optics theory, we can deduce that intensities of lights on a vertical polarization direction and a horizontal polarization direction satisfy with two following equations:

[00001]$R_s={.Math.\frac{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i-n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_t}{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i+n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_t}.Math.}^2={.Math.\frac{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i-n_2.Math.\sqrt{1-{\left(\frac{n_1}{n_2}.Math.\sin .Math..Math.{\theta }_i\right)}^2}}{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i+n_2.Math.\sqrt{1-{\left(\frac{n_1}{n_2}.Math.\sin .Math..Math.{\theta }_i\right)}^2}}.Math.}^2,.Math.R_p={.Math.\frac{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_t-n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i}{n_1.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_t+n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i}.Math.}^2={.Math.\frac{n_1.Math.\sqrt{1-{\left(\frac{n_1}{n_2}.Math.\sin .Math..Math.{\theta }_i\right)}^2}-n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i}{n_1.Math.\sqrt{1-{\left(\frac{n_1}{n_2}.Math.\sin .Math..Math.{\theta }_i\right)}^2}+n_2.Math.\cos .Math..Math.{\theta }_i}.Math.}^2.$

[0024] Wherein, Rs represents the intensity of lights on the vertical polarization direction, Rp represents the intensity of lights on the horizontal polarization direction, and θ is a light incidence and departure angle. n represents a reflectivity of lights passing through a medium material.

[0025] If the reflectivities of the functional layers arranged along the direction from the cathode plate 100 to the anode plate 200 are respectively and sequentially represented as n1, n2, n3, n4, n5, n6, n7 . . . , the reflectivities are satisfied with relationships of n1>>n2, n2>>n3, n3>>n4, n4>>n5, . . . . Since the luminance function layer 300 of the OLED has a N-layer structure, at least N-2 of the satisfied inequalities are required. The meaning of the inequality is that the reflectivity of the material of the luminance function layer 300 near to the cathode plate 100 is greatly higher than the reflectivity of the another material of the luminance function layer 300 distant from the cathode plate 100. More inequalities are satisfied and an effect is better.

[0026] Specifically, the anode plate is an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) layer. The hole ejection layer 350 may be made of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) having an excellent hole injection ability, or may be made of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ), tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), phenanthroline-23-dinitrile (PPDN), or titanyl-phthalocyanine (TiOPC).

[0027] The hole transport layer 340 may be made of 4,4′,4″-tri(carbazole-9-yl)triphenylamine (TCTA) having an excellent hole transport ability, or may be made of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ), tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), phenanthroline-23-dinitrile (PPDN), copper phthalocyanine (CuPc), or titanyl-phthalocyanine (TiOPC).

[0028] Specifically, the hole transport layer 340 may be a multi-layer structure and 2 to 4 layers are preferred. A thickness of each layer may be different. The light emitting layer 330 may use a mixed-type main light emitting layer including a green phosphorescent material of fac-tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium (Ir(ppy)3) and a red phosphorescent material of bis(2,4-diphenyl-quinoline)iridium(III) acetylanetonate (Ir(pq)2acac) co-doped with TCTA and 1,2,4-triazole derivative (3,5-diphenyl-4-naphthalene-1-yl-1,2,4-triazole, TAZ), and also uses an auxiliary light emitting layer including a blue phosphorescent material of FCNIr doped with mCP at the same time. According to the principle of colorimetry, one light emitting layer doped with red, green and blue light emitting materials generates white lights by color mixing.

[0029] The electron transport layer 320 may be made of quinoline aluminum (Alq3) having an excellent electron transport ability, or may be made of BCP (Bathocuproine), 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Bphen), 1,3,5-tri(N-phenyl-benzimidazol-2-yl)benzene (TPBi), hydroxyquinolinolate-lithium (Liq), 2,9-bis(2-naphthyl)-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Nbphen), or 1,2,4-triazole derivative (TAZ).

[0030] The electron injection layer 310 may be made of a low working function material such as LiF, which has an excellent electron injection ability, or may be made of lithiumtetra-(8-hydroxy-quinolinato)boron (LiBq4) or Alq3:Li3N (in which Li3N is an n-type doping agent, and Alq3 is the doped material).

[0031] Specifically, the cathode plate 100 is made of aluminum or silver to increase a conductivity thereof and a display effect of the display is better accordingly.

[0032] In comparison with the prior art, in the OLED display module provided by the present embodiment, the reflectivities among the layers of the luminance function are satisfied with the following relationship, which is the reflectivity of the material of the luminance function layer near to the cathode plate is greatly higher than the reflectivity of another material of the luminance function layer distant from the cathode plate.

[0033] Please refer to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a structural schematic drawing of another OLED display module of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The OLED display module of the present embodiment also comprises: a cathode plate 100, an anode plate 200 and a luminance function layer 300 sandwiched in between the cathode plate 100 and the anode plate 200. Multiple reflectivities among multiple layers of the luminance function layer 300 are satisfied with a following relationship, which is a reflectivity of the material of the luminance function layer 300 near to the cathode plate 100 is greatly higher than a reflectivity of another material of the luminance function layer 300 distant from the cathode plate 100. The luminance function layer 300 comprises sequentially along the direction from the cathode plate 100 to the anode plate 200 but is not limited to following functional layers: an electron ejection layer 310, an electron transport layer 320, a light emitting layer 330, a hole transport layer 340, a hole ejection layer 350, etc.

[0034] According to the previous embodiment, it can understand that more inequalities are satisfied and the effect is better. Thus, a downward gradient change of the reflectivities of n1 to n5, or more like n6, n7, n8 is increasingly large and the reflective effect of the cathode plate is improved better. FIG. 2 only discloses an arrangement of one type of a reflectivity-change layer 399, but another embodiment is not limited in this type as shown in the drawing. According to particular requirements of design, people who is skilled in the art can add different numbers of the reflectivity-change layers 399, so no more details thereof are described here.

[0035] Specifically, the reflectivity-change layer 399 is made of inorganic material. A thickness of the reflectivity-change layer 399 is less than 50 nm. Adding more reflectivity-change layers 399 is to improve the gradient change of the reflectivities. If the reflectivities of the material of the functional layers arranged along the direction from the cathode plate 100 to the anode plate 200 are respectively and sequentially represented as n1, n2, n3, n4, n5, n6, n7 . . . , and the reflectivities of the added reflectivity-change layers 399 arranged along the direction from the cathode plate 100 to the anode plate 200 are respectively and sequentially represented as n2′, n3′, n4′, n5′ . . . . The reflectivities are satisfied with relationships of n1>>n2′, n2′>>n2, n2>>n3′, n3′>>n3, n3>>n4′, . . . . Similarly, if the N-layer structure is composed of the luminance function layer 300 and the reflectivity-change layers 399, the at least N-2 of the satisfied inequalities are required.

[0036] In the structure of the present embodiment, the visible light with 500 nm±25 nm luminance wavelength range generated by the luminance function layer 300 is employed. In addition, the nature, composition etc. features of the material of each of the anode plate 200, the cathode plate 100 and the luminance function layer 300 are the same as these of the previous embodiment, so the details thereof are not further described here.

[0037] In comparison with the prior art, the OLED display and the display module thereof provided by the present invention, the reflectivities among the layers of the luminance function are satisfied with a following relationship, which is the reflectivity of the material of the luminance function layer near to the cathode plate is greatly higher than the reflectivity of another material of the luminance function layer distant from the cathode plate. It solves the technical problem of decreasing the contrast and sharpness of the OLED display caused by the cathode plate with the high reflectivity. In addition, to satisfy that the reflectivity of the material of the luminance function layer is greatly higher than the reflectivity of another material of the luminance function layer distant from the cathode plate, the present invention solution forms one-layer or multi-layer reflectivity-change layer(s) among the layers of the luminance function layer. The luminance function layer is used to obtain the gradient change of the reflectivities and to make the luminance function layer satisfy with the requirement of the gradient change. It further improves the technical problem of decreasing the contrast and sharpness of the OLED display caused by the cathode plate with the high reflectivity.

[0038] In addition, the embodiment of the present invention also provides an OLED display and please refer to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is simplified structural drawing of the OLED display of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Wherein, the OLED display comprises a shell 800 and the above-mentioned OLED display module mounted inside the shell 800. Regarding the technological features of the OLED display module, please refer to the detail description of the above-mentioned embodiments. People who is skilled in the art can understand other technological features of other partial structures of the OLED display so the details thereof are not further described here.

[0039] Above are embodiments of the present invention, which does not limit the scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements or improvements within the spirit and principles of the embodiment described above should be covered by the protected scope of the disclosure.
