Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application can be applied to optical fingerprint systems, including but not limited to optical fingerprint identification systems and products based on optical fingerprint imaging, and the embodiments of the present application are only described by way of example, but not limited to any limitation, and the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to other systems using optical imaging technology, etc.
As a common application scenario, the optical fingerprint system provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to smart phones, tablet computers and other mobile terminals or other electronic devices with display screens; more specifically, in the above electronic device, the fingerprint recognition device may be embodied as an optical fingerprint device, which may be disposed in a partial area or an entire area below the display screen, thereby forming an Under-screen (Under-display) optical fingerprint system. Alternatively, the fingerprint identification device may be partially or completely integrated into a display screen of the electronic device, so as to form an In-display (In-display) optical fingerprint system.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device to which the embodiment of the present invention is applicable, where the electronic device 10 includes a display screen 120 and an optical fingerprint device 130, where the optical fingerprint device 130 is disposed in a local area below the display screen 120. The optical fingerprint device 130 comprises an optical fingerprint sensor including a sensing array 133 having a plurality of optical sensing units 131, where the sensing array 133 is located or a sensing area thereof is a fingerprint detection area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130. As shown in fig. 1, the fingerprint detection area 103 is located in a display area of the display screen 120. In an alternative embodiment, the optical fingerprint device 130 may be disposed at other locations, such as the side of the display screen 120 or the edge opaque region of the electronic device 10, and the optical path is designed to guide the optical signal of at least a portion of the display area of the display screen 120 to the optical fingerprint device 130, such that the fingerprint detection area 103 is actually located in the display area of the display screen 120.
It should be appreciated that the area of the fingerprint sensing area 103 may be different from the area of the sensing array of the optical fingerprint device 130, for example, by optical path design such as lens imaging, reflective folded optical path design, or other optical path design such as light converging or reflecting, the area of the fingerprint sensing area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130 may be larger than the area of the sensing array of the optical fingerprint device 130. In other alternative implementations, if light path guidance is performed using, for example, light collimation, fingerprint sensing area 103 of optical fingerprint device 130 may also be designed to substantially coincide with the area of the sensing array of optical fingerprint device 130.
Therefore, when the user needs to unlock or otherwise verify the fingerprint of the electronic device, the user only needs to press the finger on the fingerprint detection area 103 of the display screen 120, so as to input the fingerprint. Since fingerprint detection can be implemented in the screen, the electronic device 10 with the above structure does not need to reserve a space on the front surface thereof to set a fingerprint key (such as a Home key), so that a full-screen scheme can be adopted, that is, the display area of the display screen 120 can be substantially extended to the front surface of the whole electronic device 10.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1, the optical fingerprint apparatus 130 includes a light detecting portion 134 and an optical component 132, the light detecting portion 134 includes a sensing array and a reading circuit and other auxiliary circuits electrically connected to the sensing array, which can be fabricated on a chip (Die) by a semiconductor process, such as an optical imaging chip or an optical fingerprint sensor, the sensing array is specifically a Photo detector (Photo detector) array, which includes a plurality of Photo detectors distributed in an array, and the Photo detectors can be used as the above-mentioned optical sensing units; the optical assembly 132 may be disposed above the sensing array of the light detection portion 134, and may specifically include a light guiding layer or a light path guiding structure for guiding the reflected light reflected from the surface of the finger to the sensing array for optical detection, and other optical elements.
It should be understood that the optical assembly 132 may be packaged with the same optical fingerprint component as the light detection portion 134. For example, the optical component 132 may be packaged in the same optical fingerprint chip as the optical detection portion 134, or the optical component 132 may be disposed outside the chip where the optical detection portion 134 is located, such as attaching the optical component 132 on the chip, or integrating some components of the optical component 132 into the chip.
Alternatively, the light guide layer or the light path guiding structure may also specifically employ a Micro-Lens (Micro-Lens) layer, which has a Micro-Lens array formed by a plurality of Micro-lenses, which may be formed above the sensing array of the light detecting portion 134 through a semiconductor growth process or other processes, and each Micro-Lens may respectively correspond to one of the sensing units of the sensing array. And, other optical film layers may be further formed between the microlens layer and the sensing unit, such as a dielectric layer or a passivation layer, and more specifically, a light blocking layer having micro holes may be further included between the microlens layer and the sensing unit, where the micro holes are formed between the corresponding microlenses and the sensing unit, and the light blocking layer may block optical interference between adjacent microlenses and the sensing unit, and enable light rays corresponding to the sensing unit to be converged into the micro holes through the microlenses and transmitted to the sensing unit through the micro holes to perform optical fingerprint imaging.
As an alternative embodiment, the display screen 120 may adopt a display screen having a self-Light Emitting display unit, such as an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display screen or a Micro-LED (Micro-LED) display screen. Taking the OLED display screen as an example, the optical fingerprint device 130 may use the display unit (i.e., the OLED light source) of the OLED display screen 120 located in the fingerprint detection area 103 as an excitation light source for optical fingerprint detection. When the finger 140 is pressed against the fingerprint detection area 103, the display screen 120 emits a beam of light 111 toward the target finger 140 above the fingerprint detection area 103, and the light 111 is reflected at the surface of the finger 140 to form reflected light or scattered light by scattering through the inside of the finger 140 to form scattered light, which is collectively referred to as reflected light for convenience of description in the related patent application. Because the ridges (ridges) and valleys (valley) of the fingerprint have different light reflection capacities, the reflected light 151 from the ridges and 152 from the valleys have different light intensities, and after passing through the optical assembly 132, the reflected light is received by the sensing array 134 in the optical fingerprint device 130 and converted into corresponding electrical signals, i.e., fingerprint detection signals; based on the fingerprint detection signal, fingerprint image data can be obtained, and fingerprint matching verification can be further performed, so that an optical fingerprint identification function is realized in the electronic device 10.
It should be understood that the electronic device 10 may also include a transparent protective cover plate, which may be a glass cover plate or a sapphire cover plate, positioned over the display screen 120 and covering the front face of the electronic device 10. Because, in the embodiment of the present application, the pressing of the finger on the display screen 120 actually means pressing on the cover plate above the display screen 120 or the surface of the protective layer covering the cover plate.
It should also be understood that electronic device 10 may also include a circuit board 150 disposed below optical fingerprint arrangement 130. The optical fingerprint device 130 may be adhered to the circuit board 150 by a back adhesive, and electrically connected to the circuit board 150 by soldering a pad and a wire. Optical fingerprint device 130 may be electrically interconnected and signal-transferred to other peripheral circuits or other components of electronic device 10 via circuit board 150. For example, the optical fingerprint device 130 may receive a control signal of a processing unit of the electronic apparatus 10 through the circuit board 150, and may also output a fingerprint detection signal from the optical fingerprint device 130 to the processing unit or the control unit of the electronic apparatus 10 through the circuit board 150, or the like.
On the other hand, in some embodiments, the optical fingerprint device 130 may include only one optical fingerprint sensor, where the area of the fingerprint detection area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130 is small and the position is fixed, so that the user needs to press a finger to a specific position of the fingerprint detection area 103 when performing a fingerprint input, otherwise the optical fingerprint device 130 may not acquire a fingerprint image and the user experience is poor. In other alternative embodiments, optical fingerprint device 130 may specifically include a plurality of optical fingerprint sensors; the plurality of optical fingerprint sensors may be disposed side by side below the display screen 120 in a splicing manner, and sensing areas of the plurality of optical fingerprint sensors jointly form the fingerprint detection area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130. That is, the fingerprint detection area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130 may include a plurality of sub-areas, each of which corresponds to a sensing area of one of the optical fingerprint sensors, so that the fingerprint collection area 103 of the optical fingerprint device 130 may be extended to a main area of a lower half portion of the display screen, i.e., to a region where a finger is normally pressed, thereby implementing a blind-touch fingerprint input operation. Alternatively, when the number of optical fingerprint sensors is sufficient, the fingerprint detection area 103 may also be extended to half the display area or even the entire display area, thereby enabling half-screen or full-screen fingerprint detection.
It should also be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the sensing array in the optical fingerprint device may also be referred to as a pixel array, and the optical sensing unit or the sensing unit in the sensing array may also be referred to as a pixel unit or a pixel.
It should be noted that, optical fingerprint device in this application embodiment also can be called optical fingerprint identification module, fingerprint identification device, fingerprint identification module, fingerprint collection device etc. but above-mentioned term mutual replacement.
Optical fingerprint identification technique under screen is used extensively, in order to guarantee the fingerprint identification effect, generally need avoid producing moire fringe at fingerprint imaging in-process.
So far, in order to avoid appearing the moire fringe in the fingerprint image, increase the density of the pixel array of fingerprint identification module usually for the density of the pixel array of fingerprint identification module satisfies the nyquist sampling law relative to the density of the pixel array of display screen, promptly, makes the moire fringe be outside the fingerprint cycle, and is corresponding, promotes fingerprint identification's performance.
However, when the pixel array of fingerprint identification module carries out fingerprint imaging based on the optical signal of a plurality of directions, even make the density of the pixel array of fingerprint identification module satisfy the nyquist sampling law relative to the density of the pixel array of display screen, still can appear the moire fringe in the fingerprint image.
In addition, for some fingerprint identification devices, such as ultra-thin large-area fingerprint identification devices, the data volume of fingerprint images processed by the fingerprint identification device can be greatly increased when the fingerprint identification device is applied to a high-pixel-density screen, so that when a user uses electronic equipment containing the fingerprint identification device, the quick response of fingerprint identification cannot be achieved, and the user experience is reduced.
In order to eliminate the influence of moire fringe under the screen to fingerprint identification performance and promote performance and the commonality of fingerprint identification module, this application embodiment is through promoting the space sampling density that is used for receiving the pixel of the fingerprint light signal of the equidirectional in the pixel array, reduce the space sampling cycle that is used for receiving the pixel of the fingerprint light signal of the equidirectional in the pixel array promptly, make it be less than half of the space imaging cycle of display screen, and form first target fingerprint image after each fingerprint image in a plurality of fingerprint images of the fingerprint light signal formation of a plurality of directions passes through low pass filtering, the average value of N row pixel value in this first target fingerprint image is as a pixel value in the second target fingerprint image, this second target fingerprint image is used for carrying out fingerprint identification. Therefore, the fingerprint identification device can eliminate moire fringes under a screen or enable the period of the moire fringes to be far away from the fingerprint period, further, the data volume of a fingerprint image is reduced, the fingerprint identification is enabled to respond quickly, correspondingly, the performance of the fingerprint identification is improved, and the experience of a user is improved.

As shown in fig. 4, four pixel units are corresponding to one microlens, and numbers "1", "2", "3" and "4" respectively indicate the pixel units for receiving fingerprint light signals in four different directions under each microlens, and the pixel units for receiving fingerprint light signals in the same direction are not adjacent to each other.
It should be understood that fig. 4 only shows the relative positions of the pixel units corresponding to the numbers "1", "2", "3" and "4", but this should not limit the present application in any way.
In the embodiment of the present application, the pixel units for receiving the fingerprint optical signals in the same direction form one fingerprint image, that is, four fingerprint images can be formed under the condition that one microlens corresponds to four pixel units, wherein each fingerprint image in the four fingerprint images can be used for fingerprint identification and/or fingerprint anti-counterfeiting, or the four fingerprint images can be combined into one image for fingerprint identification and/or fingerprint anti-counterfeiting.
When the spatial sampling period of the pixels for receiving the fingerprint light signals in the same direction in the pixel array is less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen, for example, the distance between the pixel units corresponding to two numbers "1" is less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen.

In this case, the spatial sampling period of the pixels of the fingerprint image formed after the pixel averaging process is less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen. Alternatively, when the spatial sampling period of the pixels of the fingerprint image formed after the pixel averaging process is not less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen, but moire fringes can be eliminated after the low-pass filtering process, the spatial sampling period of the pixels in the fingerprint image is also available.

The light in the second light beam 272 passes through the microlens array 210 and at least one light-passing aperture in the plurality of light-blocking layers and is converged into photosensitive regions 261 and 263 in a plurality of pixel units in the pixel array, respectively, and the photosensitive regions 261 and 263 correspond to different microlenses in the microlens array 210, respectively. By setting the spatial sampling period of the pixels in the pixel array for receiving the fingerprint light signals in the same direction, that is, the distance between the pixels where the photosensitive regions 261 and 263 are located (or the distance between the pixels where the photosensitive regions 262 and 264 are located), to be less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen, the fingerprint identification device can eliminate moire fringes or make the period of the moire fringes far away from the fingerprint period, so that the fingerprint identification performance is improved, and the universality of the fingerprint identification device is increased.

It should be understood that, after taking the average value of the pixels of N rows and N columns of the fingerprint light signals receiving the same direction as a pixel value in the fingerprint image formed by the fingerprint light signals receiving the same direction, the period of the pixels in the fingerprint image becomes N × P.
In one possible implementation, N × P is less than half of the spatial imaging period of the display screen.

The data volume of the fingerprint image is compressed by 16 times by taking the pixel average value of the pixels of 4 rows and 4 columns as one pixel value in the fingerprint image, so that the transmission time of the data signal of the fingerprint image between the fingerprint identification device and the terminal equipment processor is greatly reduced, and the quick response of fingerprint identification can be realized.
