Description

Novel collimated light permeable brightness enhancement film and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a novel optical film, in particular to a novel brightening film with triangular prisms arranged at intervals and transparent collimated light and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Liquid Crystal Display L CD (L acquired Crystal Display) is the most common Display technology at present, and a backlight module B L U (Back L light Unit) is needed to provide a high-brightness and uniform light source to achieve the Display effect, and B L U includes three main optical films, namely a reflective film, a diffusion film and a brightness enhancement film.
The diffusion film DIF (diffuser) mainly plays a role of light evening in B L U, is arranged below the brightness Enhancement film to provide a uniform surface light source for the brightness Enhancement film BEF (brightness Enhancement film) mainly plays a role of light condensation in B L U, is arranged above the diffusion sheet, and is used for reconverging uniform light rays provided by the diffusion sheet to be within a central visual angle (generally within 35 degrees of a line normal to a light emitting surface), so that the luminous intensity in a normal direction and the front view brightness can be remarkably improved.
The traditional brightness enhancement film is generally a prism structure (triangular prism) array which is closely arranged, the cross section of the traditional brightness enhancement film is generally triangular, and through the side refraction and total reflection of light rays on the prism structure and multiple times of refraction between adjacent prism structures, the front view accumulation effect and the recycling effect of the light rays are generated, so that the control of the emergence angle of most of the light rays is realized. Since the optical principle of brightness enhancement relies entirely on the prismatic structures themselves, the prismatic structures of conventional brightness enhancement films are closely packed (as shown in FIG. 1) without gaps to maximize brightness.
However, the structural design of such conventional brightness enhancement films is not really flexible enough and in some cases is limited by the application: when parallel light rays need to pass through the prism structure from top to bottom or from bottom to top, the light rays are necessarily deflected due to the absence of the inclined plane, and the collimation of the light rays is damaged (as shown in fig. 2); conventional brightness enhancement films are very poor if evaluated for their transmittance of collimated light, which is typically less than 1%, especially for two brightness enhancement films that are orthogonal, where the collimated transmittance is even close to 0.
At present, in the equipment that has pattern recognition, especially fingerprint identification's liquid crystal display equipment, when the reflection collimation light (fingerprint pattern) from the fingerprint from the top propagates, need keep the collimation nature as far as possible and pass all kinds of optical film materials, just enable the fingerprint identification module and can receive the specific light signal (like the infrared light) of sufficient intensity, reach the formation of image requirement of fingerprint identification module, finally realize the analysis and the identification of fingerprint pattern.
Obviously, in such an application, the conventional brightness enhancement film has a serious short plate which cannot allow collimated light to pass through, and cannot meet the requirement of the collimated light transmittance required by imaging.
Therefore, in view of the above problems, it is necessary to provide a further solution to develop a new brightness enhancement film with transmittance of collimated light.

Further, α, β of the single triangular prism may be the same or different in order to reduce the difficulty of process implementation, improve luminance, and control the viewing angle symmetry, it is preferable that the same, when the cross-sectional triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Further, α of the plurality of triangular prisms may be the same or different, and β may be the same or different.
Furthermore, the sum of α and β forms the vertex angle theta of the triangle, and theta is 30-150 degrees.

The actual value of the collimated light transmittance is generally slightly less than the ideal value (E/P ratio) due to the reflection losses in the spacer regions and the high surface roughness that causes surface scattering. To reduce this gap, further, the surface roughness Ra is 100nm or less. Furthermore, the surface roughness Ra is less than or equal to 50 nm.

Furthermore, the structure layer is composed of triangular prism units, one triangular prism unit is called a repetition period, the number of types of different triangular prisms in one triangular prism unit is called a series number, and the number of triangular prisms in one triangular prism unit is called a number. Within one triangular prism unit (repeating cycle), the number of stages is 1 or 2, and the number is 1 to 10, for example, the number is 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the novel brightness enhancement film, which comprises the following steps:

The assembling method is selected from one of A type (single sheet assembly), AA type (two parallel assemblies), AB type (two orthogonal assemblies) AABB type and ABAB type precise alignment and stacking in sequence on the lower diffusion or light guide plate in the backlight module.
Particularly, it is worth mentioning that during the use of the novel brightness enhancement film, it is easy to find that the luminance loss and the collimated light transmittance show strong positive correlation. For example, in the original single-sheet use mode of large collimation transmittance and large luminance loss, the collimation transmittance can be kept still 'large', but the luminance loss can be improved to 'small', even 'small' by the precise alignment parallel stacking.
In the existing brightness enhancement film, a prism structure which is arranged closely is adopted, and a smooth interval area is not leveled, so that the problem that collimated light cannot penetrate exists.
Compared with the prior art, the novel brightness enhancement film provided by the invention has better collimated light transmission performance. When the spacing region Ra becomes smaller, the actual collimated light transmittance is further improved, but the luminance loss is substantially unchanged.

Detailed Description
For a better understanding of the invention with regard to its structure and the functional features and advantages achieved, reference will now be made to the following description of preferred embodiments of the invention, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
as shown in fig. 1, a schematic view of a three-dimensional structure of a conventional brightness enhancement film is shown, where 0 is a substrate layer, 1 is a structural layer, and all triangular prisms in the structural layer are closely arranged without any space. When the incident collimated light 9 (only shown, not necessarily normal incidence) traveling from top to bottom passes through the prism structure, the light must be deflected, destroying its collimation, since the inclined surface is everywhere. As shown in fig. 2, the light path of the cross section of the conventional brightness enhancement film is schematically shown, and it can be seen that when the incident collimated light 9 (solid line) passes through the inclined surface region 31 in the cross section, it is divided into two directions of refracted light, and the emergent light 91 (dotted line) with the collimation destroyed is formed, that is, after the collimated light 9 passes through the conventional prism triangular prism, the collimated light which can keep the original propagation direction and arrangement sequence does not exist at all.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a three-dimensional structure of a novel brightness enhancement film 4 provided by the present invention, where 0 is a substrate layer, 1 is a structural layer, all triangular prisms 5 in the structural layer are arranged at intervals, and an interval region 6 is present between the triangular prisms. When the incident collimated light 9 propagating from top to bottom passes through the structural layer, the interval region does not destroy the collimation of the light, so that the collimation at a certain degree is maintained, namely, the light transmission rate of the collimated light is better. As shown in fig. 4, it can be seen that when the incident collimated light 9 (solid line) passes through the cross section, the inclined surface region 41 divides the incident light into refracted light beams in two directions to form an emergent light 91 (dotted line) with damaged collimation, but when the incident collimated light 9 passes through the spacing region 42 in the cross section, the planar region formed by the inclined surface region 42 keeps the incident light in the original propagation direction and arrangement sequence, and forms an emergent light 92 (solid line) with undamaged collimation, thereby providing collimated light transmittance for the whole brightness enhancement film, and therefore the novel brightness enhancement film has better collimation transmittance.
As shown in the top-down light path of fig. 8, the collimated light incident light 9 passes through the planar region multiple times to generate collimated emergent light 92, thereby improving the luminance (as shown in the bottom-up light path of fig. 8, the diffuse incident light 93 is refracted twice by the inclined surface, so that as much light as possible is changed into convergent emergent light 94, thereby improving the light condensing effect), and further reducing the luminance loss. For example, in the single-sheet application mode with a large collimation transmittance and a large luminance loss, the collimation transmittance can be maintained to be still 'large' by the precise alignment parallel stacking, but the luminance loss can be improved to be 'small', even 'small'.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 3, 5 and 7, the novel brightness enhancement film and the cross section thereof provided by the present invention comprise a substrate layer 0 and a structural layer 1, wherein the structural layer is disposed on the substrate layer, the structural layer 1 comprises a plurality of triangular prisms 5, the triangular prisms are arranged at intervals and are not connected with each other, and the surface roughness Ra of the interval region 6 is Ra<100nm, the ridge line 53 of the triangular prism presents a linear shape 5a in the longitudinal section 52, the amplitude A' is 0 μm, the cross section 51 of the triangular prism is triangular, the height H of the triangle (triangular prism) is 25 μm, the included angle α between the left oblique side and the height is 45 degrees, the included angle β between the right oblique side and the height is 45 degrees, the extension multiplying factor k of the interval opposite bottom side is 0.5
Figure BDA0002106565360000071
Is 0 deg..
The main properties of the novel brightness enhancement film provided by the present invention were evaluated in the following manner.
Luminance: the backlight framework is composed of the reflection film, the light guide plate, the diffusion film, the novel brightness enhancement film and the traditional brightness enhancement film, the backlight framework is lightened after being assembled with the module, the BM-7 is used for testing the average value of 9-point luminance, and compared with the traditional brightness enhancement film which is tightly arranged with 90-degree triangular prisms, the luminance loss is calculated. Evaluation grade: max [0.7, 1) > max [0.4, 0.7) > max [0.2, 0.4) > min [0.1, 0.2) > min [0.05, 0.1) > min (0, 0.05).
Collimated light transmittance novel brightness enhancement films were tested for typical wavelengths of 550nm and 940nm using a collimated light transmittance instrument, and if all triangular prism structures and gaps were the same, an ideal value could also be calculated by E/P ═ × k/(Wa + Wb) × (1+ k) ═ k/(1+ k), the actual value generally being slightly less than the ideal value, evaluation scale: max [0.7, 1) > max [0.4, 0.7) > max [0.2, 0.4) > min [0.1, 0.2) > min [0.05, 0.1) > min (0, 0.05).
Examples 2 to 30
The novel brightness enhancing film as provided in example 1, wherein the parameters are listed in table 1.
TABLE 1 parameters and Properties of examples 1-35
Figure BDA0002106565360000081
Figure BDA0002106565360000091
Note 1: the series represents the classification (grading) order of different triangular prisms in the repetition period; the number represents the number of the triangular prisms of the same class (grade) in the repeating period; if not otherwise stated, all triangular prisms are the same by default: the number of the stages is 1, and the number of the stages is 1; when the triangular prism is more than 1, the number of steps, i.e. the subscripts of all symbols, e.g. the height of the triangular prism, shall be denoted as H1、H2……;
Note 2, H is the height of a triangle (triangular prism) in unit μm, α is the angle between the left oblique side and the height, β is the angle between the right oblique side and the height in unit degree, k is the extension ratio of the interval relative to the bottom side and is a dimensionless unit, A' is the amplitude (absolute value) of the ridge line height change (+/-), and is in unit μm;
Figure BDA0002106565360000092
the included angle of the projection straight line of the longitudinal section and the end face of the base material is the dislocation angle of the structural layer and is unit degree; ra is the surface roughness of the spacer region in nm; E/P is the ratio of the interval to the horizontal distance, namely the theoretical proportion of the plane area, represents the theoretical collimation light transmittance, and has no dimensional unit;
from the comparison results of examples 1 to 5 in Table 1, it can be seen that the change in high H has substantially no effect on the optical properties when the other conditions are unchanged.
From the comparison results of examples 1 and 6 to 9 in table 1, it can be seen that, when the other conditions are not changed, the closer α and β are to 45 °, the less the luminance loss is relatively, i.e., the higher the luminance is.
From the comparison results of examples 1 with 10 and 11 in table 1, it can be seen that when other conditions are not changed, and the sum of α and β is not changed, the greater the difference between α and β is, the poorer the symmetry of the triangular prism is, the relatively greater the luminance loss is, i.e., the lower the luminance is, and therefore, a symmetrical structure, i.e., α and β are preferably equal.
From the comparison results of examples 1 and 12 to 20 in table 1, it can be seen that, when the extension factor k of the interval to the bottom side is increased under the same other conditions, the interval region theoretical ratio E/P is increased, the collimated light transmittance in the actual test is also increased, and the luminance loss is also increased. k is selected according to the requirements of different occasions on the allowance of luminance loss and the collimation light transmittance.
As can be seen from the comparison results of examples 1 and 21 to 30 in Table 1, when the amplitude A' of the ridge line is controlled within 0 to 2 μm under the same conditions, the morphology of the ridge line has no influence on the optical performance.
As can be seen from the comparison results of examples 1, 24 and 31 in Table 1, the amplitude A 'of the ridge line is controlled within 0 to 2 μm without changing the other conditions, and the amplitude A' has no influence on the optical properties.
From the comparison results of examples 1, 32 and 33 in Table 1, it can be seen that the dislocation angle of the structural layer is not changed under the other conditions

When changed, had no effect on optical performance.
From the comparison results of examples 17 and 34 in table 1, it can be seen that, when the spacing region Ra is increased, the actual collimated light transmittance is further reduced but the luminance loss is substantially unchanged when the other conditions are unchanged, whereas, when the spacing region Ra is decreased, the actual collimated light transmittance is further increased but the luminance loss is also substantially unchanged when the spacing region Ra is decreased, as can be seen from the comparison results of examples 13 and 35.
