Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The IMOD display technology is a novel reflective display technology, and since the IMOD display does not need to be provided with a backlight source, the IMOD display has stronger cruising ability compared with a liquid crystal display and the like. The IMOD display includes a plurality of display units each for reflecting light of one color, each display unit including two parallel reflection layers, and when light is irradiated onto the two parallel reflection layers, the reflected light produces a reinforcing effect when a wavelength of the reflected light and a surface interval of the two reflection layers conform to a specific relationship based on an interference principle of the light, and thus, a color of the reflected light and an intensity of the reflected light can be adjusted by changing the surface interval of the two reflection surfaces. In the related art, the distance between the two reflective layers is generally adjusted by a micro electro mechanical system, but on one hand, the structure of the existing micro electro mechanical system is complex, which results in the complex structure and complex manufacturing process of the IMOD device, and on the other hand, because the structure of the display unit is small, when the distance between the two reflective layers is adjusted by the micro electro mechanical system, the adjustment precision is difficult to guarantee, and the display reliability of the IMOD device is low.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a display device, as shown in fig. 1, including: the display device comprises a bearing substrate 101, a plurality of display units 102 and a plurality of control units 103, wherein the display units 102 and the control units 103 are arranged on the bearing substrate 101 in an array mode, the display units 102 correspond to the control units 103 in a one-to-one mode, and each display unit 102 is used for reflecting light of one color.
Fig. 2 is a partially enlarged structural view of the display device shown in fig. 1, and as shown in fig. 2, each display unit includes: the first reflective layer 1021 and the second reflective layer 1022 are sequentially arranged in parallel along a direction away from the carrier substrate 101, the first reflective layer 1021 comprises a shape memory layer 1021a and a reflective film layer 1021b which are sequentially arranged along the direction away from the carrier substrate 101, and the second reflective layer 1022 comprises a substrate 1022a and a semi-transparent semi-reflective film layer 1022b arranged on the substrate 1022 a.
Each control unit is used for changing the thickness of the shape memory layer in the corresponding display unit so as to adjust the interval between the first reflection layer and the second reflection layer.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, a barrier 104 may be disposed between any two adjacent display units 102 in the plurality of display units 102, where the barrier 104 is disposed on the carrier substrate 101; as shown in fig. 2, the first reflection layer 1021 and the second reflection layer 1022 are fixedly disposed on the barrier 104.
Fig. 3 is a top view of the display device shown in fig. 1, in a manufacturing process of the display device, a plurality of bars 104 arranged in a matrix as shown in fig. 3 may be formed on the carrier substrate 101, and an arrangement area of the display unit 102 may be determined by the bars 104, that is, the display unit 102 may be arranged in an area surrounded by the bars 104, and the bars may support each hierarchical structure in the display unit.
In practical applications, the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer in the display unit may be supported and fixed by other structures, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
Optionally, the barrier between the display units may be made of a non-light-transmissive material, for example, a black matrix material, so as to avoid light-emitting crosstalk between adjacent display units.
In summary, in the display device provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the shape memory layer is disposed in the first reflective layer, and the control unit changes the thickness of the shape memory layer, so as to adjust the interval between the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer, thereby adjusting the intensity of the reflected light of the display unit.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 4, the second reflective layer 1022 may further include a color resist layer 1022c, and the color resist layer 1022c is disposed between the substrate 1022a and the transflective film layer 1022 b. The color of the color resist layer in each display cell is the same as the color of the reflected light of the display cell.
It should be noted that, a color resistance layer with the same color as the reflected light of the display unit is arranged in each display unit, and when light enters from the outside, the color resistance layer in the second reflection layer can filter the incident light, so that the color of the light entering the display unit from the second reflection layer is the same as the color of the color resistance layer; when light is emitted from the display unit after being reflected by the first reflecting layer, the color resistance layer in the second reflecting layer can carry out secondary filtering on the emitted light, so that the color gamut of a product is improved.
Alternatively, the shape memory layer may be made of a magnetically controlled shape memory material, and accordingly, the control unit is a magnetic field generator. As shown in fig. 5, the control unit 103 is disposed between the carrier substrate 101 and the first reflective layer 1021, the magnetic field generator may include a ferromagnetic body 1031 and a coil 1032, both ends of the coil 1032 are respectively connected to a positive pole (+) and a negative pole (-) of an external driving circuit (not shown), and the external driving circuit and the magnetic field generator are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence. When the external drive circuit applies a voltage to the electrodes, the ferromagnetic body can generate a magnetic field, and H represents a magnetic induction line of the magnetic field generated by the ferromagnetic body, as shown in fig. 5.
The magnetic control shape memory material can deform in the direction orthogonal to the magnetic field under the action of the magnetic field, and the magnetic control shape memory material can deform rapidly under the action of the magnetic field, so that the response speed of the display unit can be within 1 millisecond. The action principle of the magnetic control shape memory material is as follows:
under the action of a magnetic field, twin crystals in the magnetron shape memory material can reorient phase, FIG. 6 is a deformation schematic diagram of twin crystals under the action of the magnetic field, and as shown in FIG. 6, when the magnetic field strength H is increased from 0 to a certain value (the direction of an arrow J in the figure represents the direction of magnetic moment), the martensite twin crystal modification M is rearranged, the twin crystal boundary L is moved, and the deformation is macroscopically shown to occur in the direction orthogonal to the magnetic field.
FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of the relationship between the deformation amount of the magnetron shape memory material and the magnetic field strength, wherein the abscissa represents the magnetic field strength H in Tesla (T), the ordinate represents the deformation amount Δ L of the magnetron shape memory material relative to itself, and the Δ L is expressed in percentage form and can be 0% -100%, as shown in FIG. 7, when the magnetic field strength is between 0.4T and 0.9T, the deformation amount of the magnetron shape memory material is linearly related to the magnetic field strength, and the deformation range of the magnetron shape memory material is 0% -9%.
Optionally, the magnetically controlled shape memory material may be a magnetically controlled shape memory alloy.
It should be noted that, in the display unit provided in the embodiment of the present invention, a distance a between the reflection surface of the transflective film layer and the reflection surface of the reflection film layer satisfies:
and A is k × (lambda/2) × c, wherein k is positive number, lambda is the wavelength of the reflected light of the display unit, and c is the speed of light.
In the display device shown in fig. 5, when the external light irradiates on the second reflective layer, a part of the light is reflected by the transflective film layer, and another part of the light is transmitted from the second reflective layer to the first reflective layer (when the second reflective layer includes the color resist layer, the transmitted light is the same color as the color resist layer); at this time, voltage is applied to the electrode in the magnetic field generator, so that the ferromagnetic body is in a power-on state, a magnetic field is further generated, the thickness change of the magnetic control shape memory material is controlled by controlling the magnetic field intensity of the generated magnetic field, and therefore the distance between the reflecting surface of the semi-transparent and semi-reflective film layer and the reflecting surface of the reflecting film layer meets the condition that the color light required to be displayed by the display unit is subjected to interference addition. The distance between the reflecting surface of the semi-transparent and semi-reflective film layer and the reflecting surface of the reflective film layer satisfies the interference addition of the light with the specified color, the intensity is increased, and the light with other colors has no effect, so the display color of the display unit is the specified color.
Typically a display device comprises a plurality of pixel units, each pixel unit comprising at least two pixels, for example 3 pixels, a red pixel, a green pixel and a blue pixel. In the embodiment of the present invention, one display unit is one pixel, and for example, the plurality of display units may include a red display unit, a green display unit, and a blue display unit, which are sequentially arranged, where the red display unit is configured to reflect red light, the green display unit is configured to reflect green light, and the blue display unit is configured to reflect blue light.
Optionally, when the display unit is a red display unit, a ═ k1×(λRed light/2) × c, when the display element is a green display element, A ═ k2×(λGreen light/2) × c, when the display element is a blue display element, A ═ k3×(λBlue light/2)×c,k1、k2And k3Are all positive numbers. The display device shown in fig. 1 includes two pixel units (the left three display units are one pixel unit, the right three display units are another pixel unit), and each pixel unit includes a red display unit, a green display unit, and a blue display unit arranged sequentially from left to right. Wherein λ isRed lightRepresenting the wavelength of red light, which may be 675 nanometers, lambdaGreen lightRepresenting the wavelength of green light, which may be 520 nanometers, λBlue lightRepresenting the wavelength of blue light, which may be 450 nanometers.
For example, the embodiment of the present invention takes a red display unit as an example, and explains the gray scale display principle of the display unit:
fig. 8A, 8B and 8C are schematic diagrams illustrating the superposition of the light intensity of the red light reflected by the first reflective layer and the red light reflected by the second reflective layer, respectively, where R1 represents the red light reflected by the first reflective layer, R2 represents the red light reflected by the second reflective layer, and R represents the red light emitted by the red display unit. When k is1When the number of the red display units is even, the light intensity superposition diagram of the R1 and the R2 is shown in fig. 8A, and the intensity of the red light emitted by the red display unit is the maximum at this time, that is, the red display unit is the brightest at this time; when k is1When the number of the red display units is odd, the light intensity superposition of the R1 and the R2 is schematically shown in fig. 8B, and the intensity of the red light emitted by the red display unit is the smallest, that is, the red display unit is the darkest. It should be noted that, when the second reflective layer in the red display unit is provided with a red color resist, k1When the light intensity is a non-integer, the light intensity superposition schematic diagram of R1 and R2 is shown in fig. 8C, and at this time, the intensity of the red light emitted by the red display unit is between the maximum intensity and the minimum intensity, and since the distance between the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer is linearly adjustable, the brightness of the red display unit in this state is also adjustable, so that multi-gray scale display can be realized; wherein the red color resistance is to ensure when k is1When the number of the light emitting elements is not an integer, the light emitted by the display unit is red light.
In practical applications, the distance between the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer may be adjusted such that k in formula a ═ k × (λ/2) × c is a non-integer, and when the second reflective layer is not provided with a color resist layer, the display unit may be used for displaying black and white images, for example, the display device may be electronic paper or electronic book, and the intensity of the emergent light may be changed by adjusting the distance between the first reflective layer and the second reflective layer, so as to realize multi-gray scale display of the display unit.
Therefore, when k is an even number, the display unit can emit reflected light of maximum intensity; when k is an odd number, the display unit can emit the reflected light with the minimum intensity; when k is a non-integer, the intensity of the reflected light emitted by the display unit is between the maximum intensity and the minimum intensity.

Alternatively, the barrier may be made of a non-light-transmissive material, for example, a black matrix material, so as to avoid light-emitting crosstalk between adjacent display units.
And step 303, arranging a plurality of control units in an array between the grids on the bearing substrate.
Alternatively, the control unit may be a magnetic field generator, which may comprise a ferromagnetic body and a coil. The coil may be formed by winding a wire outside the ferromagnetic body, or a spiral metal wire may be formed on the ferromagnetic body by processes such as film formation, exposure, and etching, and the coil is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. The ferromagnetic body may be made of materials such as iron, cobalt, or nickel, and a material capable of significantly enhancing the magnetic field of the coil may be selected.
And 304, fixedly arranging a plurality of display units between the grids on the bearing substrate, wherein the display units correspond to the control units one by one.
