Specific embodiment
To make the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with attached drawing to embodiment party of the present invention Formula is described in further detail.
As Figure 1-1, in the related technology, incident light is provided for display panel A usually using side entrance back module 0. The side entrance back module 0 may include light source 01 and light guide plate 02, wherein what light guide plate 02 was arranged in display panel A enters light The side of light guide plate 02 is arranged in side, light source 01, and the light that light source 01 issues can inject light guide plate from the side of light guide plate 02, and It is projected from the light emission side of light guide plate 02, and then injects display panel A.
Exemplary, light is when from the first medium incident to second of medium, if the refractive index of the first medium is greater than The refractive index of second of medium, and incident angle of the light on second of medium is greater than the first medium and second of medium pair The critical angle answered, then light can be totally reflected in second of dielectric surface, specifically, the first medium and second of Jie The corresponding critical angle of matter can be the SIN function of the ratio of the refractive index of the refractive index and second of medium of the first medium It is reciprocal.
As shown in Figs. 1-2, in the related technology, there are a kind of optical waveguide display device 1, optical waveguide display device 1 be can wrap It includes and exists to the array substrate 11 and cover board 12 of box forming, the filler 13 between array substrate 11 and cover board 12 and setting The light source 14 of array substrate 11 and 12 side of cover board.Filler 13 can be made of liquid crystal 131 and high molecular polymer 132, liquid Refractive index of the crystalline substance 131 when voltage is not added is different from refractive index when making alive, and the refractive index with high molecular polymer 132 (greater than the refractive index of glass) is identical.The display area of optical waveguide display device 1 can be made of multiple subregions, in a part When subregion shines and another part subregion does not shine, which can show image.In the related technology, light source 14 with Greater than the critical angle corresponding with cover board 12 (material is usually glass) of filler 13 when voltage is not added angle to cover board 12 (or Person's array substrate 11) inject light.Exemplary, which can be θc,Wherein,ForIt is anti- Sine value, n1(or array substrate 11) refractive index of filler 13, n when for voltage is not added2For the refractive index of cover board 12.
When a certain subregion B1 of control does not shine, voltage can not be applied to the liquid crystal 131 of subregion B1, at this point, Incident ray can be by liquid crystal 131 and high molecular polymer 132, due to the liquid crystal of subregion B1 before directive cover board 12 131 is identical with the refractive index of high molecular polymer 132, and is all larger than the refractive index of glass, so, by liquid crystal 131 and high score The direction of propagation of incident ray after sub- polymer 132 will not change, when incident ray reaches cover board 12, incident light Line meets the condition of total reflection, so can be totally reflected on cover board 12, so that subregion B1 does not shine.Controlling certain When one subregion B2 shines, voltage can be applied to the liquid crystal 131 of subregion B2, due in the liquid crystal to subregion B2 After 131 apply voltage, the refractive index of the liquid crystal 131 of subregion B2 is changed, and incident ray is passing through liquid crystal 131 and arriving When up to high molecular polymer 132, liquid crystal 131 is different from the refractive index of high molecular polymer 132, so, liquid crystal 131 can be in high score It is reflected on sub- polymer 1, and finally refracts to cover board 12, so that a part reaches the incidence angle of the incident ray of cover board 12 Degree is not more than filler critical angle corresponding with cover board, that is, the incident ray for reaching cover board is unsatisfactory for the condition of total reflection, institute It is totally reflected and can be projected from cover board 12 can not occur on cover board 12, so that subregion B2 shines.
Due to when control work zone domain B2 shines, being in the related technology by changing the incident ray on arrival cover board 12 Incident angle destroys the condition that light is totally reflected on cover board 12, so that subregion B2 shines, therefore, control Region B2 luminous mode is more single.
As shown in Fig. 2-1, the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of optical waveguide display devices 2, which can To include: two display base plates 21 to box forming, the liquid crystal 22 between two display base plates 21 and be arranged at two The light source 23 of 21 side of display base plate,
Liquid crystal 22 when being not powered on pressure have first refractive index, in making alive have the second refractive index, first refractive index, The refractive index of display base plate 21 and the second refractive index are sequentially increased.
In conclusion the embodiment of the invention provides a kind of optical waveguide display device, in the optical waveguide display device two Liquid crystal is only provided only between a display base plate, and liquid crystal has first refractive index when being not powered on pressure, has in making alive Second refractive index.Need to control the subregion in optical waveguide display device shine when, can forbid to liquid crystal applied voltages, this When liquid crystal refractive index be less than display base plate refractive index, light source issue light display base plate surface be unsatisfactory for total reflection Condition, therefore have light across display base plate and project, so that the subregion shines.That is, the present invention passes through control liquid crystal Refractive index be less than display base plate mode so that light is unsatisfactory for total reflection condition and penetrates from the subregion on display base plate Out, so, the luminous mode in control work zone domain is enriched.
