DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENT (S) OF INVENTION
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a display device, including a display panel 1, a backlight module 3, and a quantum dot polarizer 2 provided in an embodiment of the present invention, where the quantum dot polarizer 2 is disposed between the backlight module 3 and the display panel 1.
The display panel 1 is a liquid crystal display panel, and is provided with backlight through the backlight module 3, so as to display pictures.
The backlight module 3 emits blue light, for example, the light source of the backlight module 3 is made of blue light LEDs, and compared with the backlight module emitting white light, the light source does not need to integrate green light LEDs and red light LEDs, so that the structural complexity of the backlight module is reduced, and the cost is saved.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a quantum dot polarizer 2, where the quantum dot polarizer 2 is configured to be installed between a backlight module 3 and a display panel 1, referring to fig. 2 to 5, arrows in fig. 5 use different filling textures to represent lights with different colors, the quantum dot polarizer 2 includes a red light layer 20, a polarization conversion layer 30, and a green light layer 40, which are stacked, the red light layer 20 faces a side of the backlight module 3, the red light layer 3 is provided with a plurality of first nanorods 21, which are arranged in a first direction, the green light layer 4 is provided with a plurality of second nanorods 41, which are arranged in a second direction, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular, referring to fig. 5, the backlight module 3 is configured to emit unpolarized blue light 100, the first nanorods 21 are configured to be excited by a portion of the blue light 100 to emit red light 200, which is polarized in the first direction, the polarization conversion layer 30 is configured to convert the red light 200 with the polarization direction of the first direction into the red light 200 with the polarization direction of the second direction, and transmit a portion of the blue light 100, the second nanorods 41 are configured to be excited by a portion of the blue light 100 to emit the green light 300 with the polarization direction of the second direction, and a portion of the blue light 100 and the red light 200 and the green light 300 in the second direction are mixed to form white light, which is provided to the display panel 1.
The principle of the embodiment of the invention is as follows: the light with short wavelength is used for exciting the quantum dot fluorescent nanorods to emit polarized light with long wavelength, the light with long wavelength cannot excite the quantum dot fluorescent nanorods to emit light with short wavelength, the wavelength relation of red light, green light and blue light is that the red light > the green light > the blue light, and the red light, the green light and the blue light are mixed to obtain white light, therefore, the blue light with the shortest wavelength is used as an excitation light source to firstly excite the first nanorods 21 to emit red light, the red light has longer wavelength than the green light and cannot excite the second nanorods 41 to emit green light, so that the red light cannot be absorbed by a green light layer, the blue light has shorter wavelength than the green light and can excite the second nanorods 41 to emit light, and therefore, the light emitted from the surface of the green light layer 40 is the red light generated by excitation, the green light generated by excitation, and the blue light of the backlight left after being absorbed by the first.
The polarization conversion layer 30 converts the red light with the polarization direction of the first direction into the red light with the polarization direction of the second direction, so that the red light transmitted through the green light layer 40 and the green light excited by the green light layer 40 have the same polarization direction, and can be mixed with the unpolarized part of the blue light to obtain white light.
A part of the blue light emitted by the backlight module 3 is absorbed by the red light layer 20, after the red light layer 20 is excited to emit red light, the remaining part of the blue light passes through the red light layer 20 and the polarization conversion layer 30, and the other part of the blue light is absorbed by the green light layer 40, after the green light layer 40 is excited to emit green light, the remaining part of the blue light passes through the green light layer 40, so that the blue light is used for respectively exciting the red light and the green light, and then the red light and the green light are mixed with the remaining blue light.
Therefore, by arranging the red light layer 20, the polarization conversion layer 30 and the green light layer 40, the red light layer 20 and the green light layer 40 are excited by blue light, so that the first nanorods 21 of the red light layer 20 generate red light with the polarization direction in the first direction, the polarization conversion layer 30 converts the red light in the first direction into red light in the second direction, and the second nanorods 41 of the green light layer 40 generate green light with the polarization direction in the second direction, therefore, the quantum dot polarizer 2 of the invention uses the blue light to excite the red light layer 20 to generate the red light, then uses the blue light to excite the green light layer 40 to generate the green light, the red light does not excite the green light, the blue backlight can be converted into white light, the projection or concentration of the second nanorods 41 of the green light layer 40 is reduced, the utilization rate of the green light layer 40 is improved.
The further principle implemented by the embodiment of the invention is as follows: the efficiency of obtaining light with a long wavelength by exciting nanorods perpendicular to the alignment direction and the polarization direction of polarized light by polarized light with a short wavelength is extremely low. Using this phenomenon, the polarization conversion layer 30 is disposed to be made of a wavelength selective material, the polarization conversion layer 30 rotates the polarization direction of the converted red light by 90 °, and the polarization directions of the converted blue and green lights by 0 °.
The green light excited by the second nanorods 41 on the green layer 40 and having the polarization direction of the second direction can be emitted to the upper and lower sides of the green layer 40, the green light excited by the second nanorods 41 includes a portion of green light toward the polarization conversion layer 30, since the polarization conversion layer 30 does not convert the polarization direction of the green light, the polarization direction of the green light is not changed after the green light is transmitted from the polarization conversion layer 30, so that the polarization direction of the green light incident into the red layer 20 is the second direction, and the arrangement direction of the first nanorods 21 on the red layer 20 is the first direction, since the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular, the excitation efficiency of the green light having the polarization direction of the second direction to the first nanorods 21 on the red layer 20 is very low, and the first nanorods 21 are not excited to generate red light, so that the red light excited by the first nanorods 21 on the nanorod layer 20 is converted into the second direction by providing the wavelength-selective polarization conversion layer 30, can be mixed with the green light, and in addition, the red light layer 20 does not excite more red light due to absorbing the green light of the green light layer 40, resulting in increased charge of the second nanorods 41 on the green light layer 40.
Compared to the case where the arrangement directions of the first nanorods 21 on the red layer 20 and the second nanorods 41 on the green layer 40 are the same (taking the first direction as an example), and the polarization conversion layer 30 is not provided, the green light emitted from the green layer 40 to the red layer 20 with the first polarization direction excites the first nanorods 21 on the red layer 20 to emit the red light with the first polarization direction, because the wavelength of the green light is shorter than that of the red light, and the light with the short wavelength can excite to generate the light with the long wavelength, which results in the increase of the overall generated red light, so that the mixed light is white light, and the luminance is sufficient, the projection of the second nanorods 41 on the green layer 40 must be increased, and the projection of the second nanorods 41 is generally 10 times that of the first nanorods 21.
The quantum dot polarizer provided by the embodiment of the invention reduces the feeding amount or concentration of the second nanorods 41 of the green light layer 40, the polarization conversion film 30 deflects red light by a polarization angle of 90 degrees, and the arrangement directions of the first nanorods 21 and the second nanorods 41 are perpendicular, so that the final polarization direction of the red light is the same as the green light and is the second direction, the polarization direction of the green light emitted from the green light layer 40 to the red light layer 20 is the second direction, the polarization conversion layer 30 does not convert the polarization direction of the green light, the excitation efficiency of the green light to the red light layer 20 is extremely low, the first nanorods 21 are not excited to emit the red light, the red light is not increased, the feeding amount of the second nanorods 41 is not required to be increased to be matched with the red light to be mixed to generate the white light, and the fluorescence utilization rate of the second nanorods 41 is improved.
As for the material of the polarization conversion layer 30, any material satisfying wavelength selectivity can be used as it is, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
The first nanorod 21 and the second nanorod 41 are quantum dot materials with a core/shell structure, have good fluorescence characteristics, and are particularly suitable for being used in the display technology field. In the present invention, the material of the luminescent core of the first nanorod 21 includes CdSe, Cd2SeTe, InAs, the material of the luminescent core of the second nanorod 41 comprising ZnCdSe2,InP,Cd2One or more of SSe, the material of the inorganic protective shell of the first nanorod 21 and the second nanorod 41 comprises CdS, ZnSe, ZnCdS2ZnS, ZnO. The first nanorods 21 and the second nanorods 41 are in a bar-shaped rod structure, the arrangement along the first direction and the arrangement along the second direction in the present invention means that the extension direction of the bar-shaped rod structure is the first direction and the second direction, and the first nanorods 21 and the second nanorods 41 are preferably respectively arranged in a rectangular array, so that the light generated by the excitation of the two is uniform.
Referring to fig. 6, the red light layer 20 includes a substrate 25, an alignment film 26 and a mixed resin layer 27 stacked together, the first nanorods 21 are disposed in the mixed resin layer 27, the first nanorods 27 and the alignment film 26 have intermolecular forces, and the alignment film 26 is used for aligning molecules in the same direction under the action of polarized light, so that the first nanorods 21 are aligned in the first direction.
The arrangement method of the first nanorods 26 adopts a principle similar to the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules in a display panel, and the first nanorods 26 are arranged along the first direction by the action of the alignment film 26, the alignment film 26 may adopt the alignment film of the prior art, and the molecular structures on the alignment film 26 may be arranged along the same direction under the action of polarized light.
A liquid crystal polymer (not shown in the figure) is further disposed in the mixed resin layer 27, a surface ligand of the first nanorod 21 includes an alkyl chain and a phosphate group, the liquid crystal polymer includes biphenyl and a carboxylic acid group, the alkyl chain is connected with the biphenyl by intermolecular force, the phosphate group is coordinated with the first nanorod 21, and the carboxylic acid group is connected with the alignment film 26 by intermolecular force.
Specifically, the surface ligand molecular formula of the first nanorod 21 may be:
Figure BDA0001710340380000071
the liquid crystalline polymer may have the formula:
Figure BDA0001710340380000072
the molecular formula of the alignment film may be:
Figure BDA0001710340380000081
through the interaction among the surface ligand, the liquid crystal polymer, the alignment film and the first nanorods 21, the alignment film 26 is irradiated by polarized light, and the first nanorods 21 are driven to be arranged along the first direction under the molecular action of the alignment film 26.
It is understood that the structure of the green light layer 40 is similar to that of the red light layer 20, and the second nanorods 41 are aligned in the second direction with reference to the red light layer 20.
Referring to fig. 2 and 5, the quantum dot polarizer further includes a reflective layer 10, wherein the reflective layer 10 is stacked on a side of the red light layer 20 opposite to the polarization conversion layer 30, and is configured to transmit unpolarized blue light, reflect red light excited by the first nanorods 21 and having a polarization direction toward the reflective layer 10 as the first direction, and reflect green light excited by the second nanorods 41 and having a polarization direction toward the reflective layer 10 as the second direction.
As can be seen from the foregoing, the blue light 100 excites the first nanorods 21 of the red light layer 20 to emit the red light 200 with the polarization direction being the first direction, and the red light emitted by the first nanorods 21 can be emitted toward the upper and lower sides of the red light layer 20, and when the red light is emitted toward the lower side, i.e., toward the reflective layer 10, the red light is reflected by the reflective layer 10, so that the part of the red light emitted toward the reflective layer 10 can also be utilized, i.e., the red light reflected back by the reflective layer 10 is still the red light with the polarization direction being the first direction, and after passing through the red light layer 20, the polarization direction can be converted by the polarization conversion layer 30 to 90 °, so as to form the red light with the polarization direction being the first direction, and then the red light is emitted.
As can be seen from the foregoing, the second nanorods 41 of the blue light-excited green light layer 40 emit green light 300 having a polarization direction of the second direction, and the green light emitted by the second nanorods 41 can be emitted toward the upper and lower sides of the green light layer 40, and when emitted toward the lower side, i.e., toward the reflective layer 10, the polarization direction of the green light transmitted through the polarization conversion layer 30 is the second direction because the polarization conversion layer 30 does not convert the polarization direction of the green light, and the polarization direction of the green light transmitted through the polarization conversion layer 30 is the second direction because the arrangement direction of the first nanorods 41 on the red light layer 20 is the first direction and the excitation efficiency of the green light of the second direction to the first nanorods 21 is very low, the first nanorods 21 are not excited to generate red light, but are emitted through the red light layer 20 toward the reflective layer 10, the reflective layer 10 reflects the green light having a polarization direction of the second direction, and the reflected green light does not change the polarization direction, and thus, but transmits through the red light layer 20 and the polarization conversion layer 30 and is emitted from the green light layer 40 in a direction away from the polarization conversion layer 30, so that the reflective layer 10 can reflect the green light emitted toward the reflective layer 10 back to be utilized, and thus, the utilization rate of the green light is also improved.
The reflective layer 10 is also transparent to blue light, a portion of which excites the first nanorods 21 of the red light emitting layer 20 to emit red light, and a portion of which excites the second nanorods 41 of the green light emitting layer 40 to emit green light, and the remaining blue light is emitted from the side of the green light emitting layer 40 opposite to the polarization conversion layer 30, and mixed with the red light and the green light to form white light for providing to the display panel. Therefore, blue light is not reflected from the red light layer 20, the polarization conversion layer 30, or the green light layer 40 back to the reflective layer.
In view of the above, the material of the reflective layer 10 is a wavelength selective reflective film, which transmits unpolarized blue light but cannot transmit polarized red and green light, but reflects polarized red and green light without changing the polarization direction. Of course, in practical applications, the reflective layer 10 may also be a PET Film or Barrier Film, which transmits a part of polarized red light and green light, but reflects a majority of polarized red light and green light, so that the utilization rate of red light and green light can be improved compared to the direct waste of polarized red light and green light.
The quantum dot polarizer further includes a polarizing layer 50, the polarizing layer 50 is stacked on a side of the green layer 40 opposite to the polarization conversion layer 30, and the polarizing layer 50 passes light with the polarization direction of the second direction and blocks light with the polarization direction of the other directions.
