  • Patent number: 11957000
    Abstract: An organic light emitting diode display panel in this disclosure comprises a base substrate, an array layer disposed on the base substrate, and a planarization layer disposed on the array layer. The OLED display panel further comprises anodes disposed on the planarization layer, and a pixel definition layer located between the anodes adjacent to each other. A luminescent layer, a cathode, and an encapsulation layer are provided on the anodes. A preparation material of the pixel definition layer is a light-shading material.
