Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of an ultrasonic sensor 20 in the electronic device 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. Among them, the ultrasonic sensor 20 includes a negative electrode layer 21, a piezoelectric material layer 22, and a positive electrode layer 23. The negative electrode layer 21, the piezoelectric material layer 22, and the positive electrode layer 23 are sequentially stacked.

The piezoelectric material layer 22 is used to generate an ultrasonic signal and receive a reflected signal of an obstacle. Wherein the piezoelectric material layer 22 comprises a piezoelectric material, which may be, for example, a piezoelectric ceramic.
When an ac voltage is applied to the piezoelectric material layer 22, for example, a high-frequency oscillation signal is applied to the piezoelectric material layer 22, the piezoelectric material layer 22 generates an ultrasonic signal and emits the ultrasonic signal to the outside.

For example, the fixing layer 25 may be a colloidal layer.
It will be appreciated that the ultrasonic sensor may also be integrated into the display screen 11 of the electronic device 10 in order to reduce the occupation of the internal space of the electronic device by the ultrasonic sensor or to enhance the intensity of the ultrasonic signal emitted from the ultrasonic sensor to the outside.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a first cross-sectional view of the display screen 11 in the electronic device 10 shown in fig. 1 along the direction Q-Q. Wherein the ultrasonic sensor 20 is integrated in the display screen 11. The display screen 11 may include a first substrate 111, a second substrate 112, a display layer 113, an ultrasonic sensor 20, and a driving circuit 114.
The first substrate 111 may be a glass substrate, such as the first substrate 111 being an upper glass substrate. When the Display panel 11 is a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), the first substrate 111 may be a color film substrate of the Display panel 111. When the display panel 11 is an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display panel, the first substrate 111 may be a glass cover plate of the display panel 111.
The second substrate 112 may be a glass substrate, such as the second substrate 112 being a lower glass substrate. When the Display 11 is a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), the second substrate 112 may serve as an array substrate of the Display 111. When the display panel 11 is an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display panel, the second substrate 112 may be arranged with a circuit to drive the display panel 11.
The display layer 113 is disposed between the first substrate 111 and the second substrate 112, and the display layer 113 is used to emit light or transmit light, so that the display panel 11 displays information. When the display panel 11 is a liquid crystal display panel, the display layer 113 may include a liquid crystal layer; when the display panel 11 is an organic light emitting diode display panel, the display layer 113 may include an organic light emitting layer.
The driving circuit 114 may include driving chips, traces, switches, and the like. The driving circuit 114 may be disposed on the second substrate 112, such as the length of the second substrate 112 is greater than the length of the first substrate 111 and the display layer 113, to form a placement platform, at least a portion of the driving circuit 114 may be placed at the placement platform, the driving circuit 114 may be wound from the placement platform to the non-display surface of the display screen 11 through a signal line to be electrically connected to the circuit board 14 inside the electronic device 10, and the driving circuit 114 may be controlled by a processor on the circuit board 14. It should be noted that traces or other devices may be arranged at other positions of the second substrate 112.
The driving circuit 114 may be electrically connected to the display layer 113, and the driving circuit 114 may drive the display layer 113 to display a picture. The processor such as the electronic device 10 controls the driving circuit 114 to drive the display layer 113 to display a picture.
The driving circuit 114 may be electrically connected to the ultrasonic sensor 20, and the driving circuit 114 may drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to perform fingerprint recognition, that is, the driving circuit 114 may drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to transmit an ultrasonic signal and receive an ultrasonic signal fed back by an obstacle, such as a finger. The driving circuit 114 may also drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect a touch operation of the display screen 11. The touch operation may be a click operation, a long-time press operation, a slide operation, or the like. Such as the processor of the electronic device 10 controlling the driving circuit 114 to drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 for fingerprint recognition, the processor of the electronic device 10 controlling the driving circuit 114 to drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect the touch operation of the display screen 11.
The driving circuit 114 may be an integrated circuit having three different modules for respectively driving the display layer 113 and the ultrasonic sensor 20. For example, the driving circuit 114 may include a display driving module, a fingerprint identification driving module and a touch detection driving module, the display driving module may drive the display layer 113 to display a picture, the fingerprint identification driving module may drive the ultrasonic wave 20 sensor to perform fingerprint identification, and the touch detection driving module may detect a touch operation of the display screen 11. Of course, the driving circuit 114 may also comprise several different sub-circuits. Such as the driving circuit 114, may include a first driving circuit, a second driving circuit and a third driving circuit, and the first driving circuit, the second driving circuit and the third driving circuit may be disposed at the same end of the display screen 11 or disposed at different ends of the display screen 11. The first driving circuit may drive the display layer 113 to display a picture, the second driving circuit may drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to perform fingerprint recognition, and the third driving circuit may drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect a touch operation of the display screen 111.
It should be noted that, in the process of driving the ultrasonic sensor 20 by the driving circuit 114, if the driving circuit 114 drives the ultrasonic sensor 20 to perform fingerprint recognition, the driving circuit 114 does not drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect the touch operation of the display screen 11. On the other hand, if the driving circuit 114 drives the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect the touch operation of the display screen 11, the driving circuit 114 does not drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to perform fingerprint recognition. It should be noted that the driving circuit 114 may also drive the ultrasonic sensor 20 to detect the touch operation of the display screen 11 and perform fingerprint identification in a time-sharing manner.
The ultrasonic sensor 20 may be disposed between the first substrate 111 and the second substrate 112, and the ultrasonic sensor 20 may be disposed to be stacked on the display layer 113. Such as the first substrate 111, the display layer 113, the positive electrode layer 21, the piezoelectric material layer 22, the negative electrode layer 23, and the second substrate 112 are sequentially stacked. It should be noted that the arrangement relationship between the ultrasonic sensor 20 and the display layer 113 in the display screen 11 is not limited to this.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a second cross-sectional view of the display screen 11 of the electronic device 10 shown in fig. 1 along the direction Q-Q. The first substrate 111, the positive electrode layer 21, the display layer 113, the piezoelectric material layer 22, the negative electrode layer 23, and the second substrate 112 may be sequentially stacked.
The size of the ultrasonic sensor 20 may be adapted to the size of the display layer 113, such as the size of the area of the ultrasonic sensor 20 on the display surface of the electronic device 10 is adapted to the size of the display area of the display layer 113. Or the area of the ultrasonic sensor 20 on the display surface of the display screen 11 is close to or the same as the area of the display layer 113 on the display surface of the display screen 11. Therefore, full-screen fingerprint identification and full-screen touch detection can be realized.
The positive electrode layer 21 may be a unitary structure, such as a layer structure formed by laying the positive electrode layer 21 with silver paste. Here, the piezoelectric material layer 22 may be disposed below the positive electrode layer 21 or below the display layer 113 using piezoelectric ceramics. Here, the negative electrode layer 23 may be disposed below the layer of piezoelectric material 22. The negative electrode layer 23 may be formed of a plurality of electrode channels (ultrasonic sensors), such as the negative electrode layer 23 may include tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of negative electrode channels.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of the negative electrode layer shown in fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a partial structural schematic diagram of only the negative electrode layer. The negative electrode layer 23 may include a plurality of electrode channels 231, wherein a part of the electrode channels 231 may form one negative electrode block 232, i.e. one negative electrode block 232 may include a plurality of electrode channels 231, such as one negative electrode block 232 may include several hundred, one thousand, several thousand electrode channels 231. The negative electrode layer 23 may include a plurality of negative electrode blocks 232 disposed to be spaced apart from each other, and the electrode channels 231 in each negative electrode block 232 may be connected to each other. The negative pole pieces 232 are spaced apart from one another, such as in an array. The negative pole piece 232 may be rectangular in shape, such as a rectangle, and may be 4 mm to 5mm in length. Although the size is not limited thereto. The negative pole piece 232 may be circular in shape, and may have a diameter of 4 mm to 5mm, etc. Of course, the shape of the negative pole piece 232 may also be other shapes, such as an oval or other shapes.
The piezoelectric material layer 22 and the portion of the positive electrode layer 21 corresponding to one negative electrode layer 23 may form one multiplex electrode. The multiplexing electrode can be used for detecting the touch operation of the display screen 11. It is understood that the multiplexing electrode detects the touch operation of the display screen 11 to detect the touch position of the display screen 11.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a third cross-sectional view of the display screen 11 of the electronic device 10 shown in fig. 1 along the direction Q-Q. The ultrasonic sensor 20 may include a plurality of multiplexing electrodes 24, and the multiplexing electrodes 24 may include a plurality of electrode channels 231, a portion of the piezoelectric material layer 22, and a portion of the positive electrode layer 21. Such as a multiplexing electrode 24, may include a negative electrode block 232 and portions of the piezoelectric material layer 22 and the positive electrode layer 21 corresponding to the negative electrode block 232. That is, one negative electrode block 232 and the portion of the piezoelectric material layer and the portion of the positive electrode layer corresponding to the negative electrode block 232 form one multiplex electrode 24.
Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can implement the detection of the touch operation of the display screen 11 through one or more multiplexing electrodes 24. Such as the driving circuit 114, may drive one or more multiplexing electrodes 24 to detect touch operations of the display screen 11.
Therefore, the display function, the touch function and the fingerprint identification function can be realized by arranging the display layer 11 and the ultrasonic sensor 20 inside the display screen 11 in the embodiment of the application. Compared with a display screen which is provided with a touch module and an ultrasonic sensor in the display screen 11 to realize a touch function and a fingerprint identification function, the thickness of the display screen can be reduced.
It will be appreciated that the display 11 may also include one or more polarizers. The polaroid is also used for realizing the display function of the display screen. For example, the polarizer is used to polarize light emitted from the display screen.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating a principle of fingerprint recognition by an ultrasonic sensor according to an embodiment of the present application.
Wherein, when the user's finger touches or presses on the surface of the electronic device (e.g. the surface of the display screen), the electronic device controls the ultrasonic sensor to emit the ultrasonic signal towards the direction of the finger. When the ultrasonic wave signal contacts with a finger, a reflection signal is generated. The reflected signal is reflected to the ultrasonic sensor and received by the ultrasonic sensor. And then, the ultrasonic sensor converts the received reflection signal into a corresponding electric signal, and the fingerprint image of the finger of the user can be obtained.
It will be appreciated that the finger surface presents a fingerprint pattern formed by areas of relief. Therefore, when the ultrasonic signal is reflected by different areas of the fingerprint pattern to form a reflected signal, the intensity of the reflected signal is different, and the intensity of the reflected signal received by the ultrasonic sensor at different parts of the finger is also different. Therefore, the ultrasonic sensor can acquire the concave-convex degrees of different parts of the finger according to the intensity of the reflected signals of the different parts of the finger, and a three-dimensional fingerprint image of the finger of the user can be formed.
For example, the deepest depressions in the fingerprint pattern may be referred to as fingerprint valleys, and the highest projections in the fingerprint pattern may be referred to as fingerprint ridges. When the user's finger reflects the ultrasonic signal to generate a reflection signal, the intensity of the reflection signal generated by the fingerprint valley is the weakest, and the intensity of the reflection signal generated by the fingerprint ridge is the strongest. The ultrasonic sensor can identify fingerprint valleys and fingerprint ridges on the finger according to the received intensity of the reflected signals generated by different parts of the finger.
Referring to fig. 8, 9, and 10, fig. 8 is a schematic view of a scene where an ultrasonic sensor performs fingerprint recognition according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, fig. 9 is another schematic view of an ultrasonic sensor performing fingerprint recognition according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and fig. 10 is a schematic view of a change of a reflection signal received by the ultrasonic sensor in an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
It will be appreciated that the user's finger presents an epidermis layer and a dermis layer with a thickness therebetween, that is, the thickness of the epidermis layer. Although the thickness of the epidermis layer of the finger is small, for example, 0.5mm (milliseconds), it is sufficient to influence the reflection signal generated by the reflection of the ultrasonic signal by the finger.
After the ultrasonic sensor emits the ultrasonic signal, the ultrasonic signal contacts the epidermis layer of the finger of the user to generate a reflection signal, which is the epidermis layer reflection signal or is called as a first reflection signal. Meanwhile, when the ultrasonic signal is reflected by the epidermis layer of the finger, the ultrasonic signal also penetrates the epidermis layer of the finger and contacts the dermis layer of the finger, and is reflected by the dermis layer to generate a reflection signal, namely a dermis layer reflection signal, or a second reflection signal. The first reflected signal and the second reflected signal are both reflected back to the ultrasonic sensor and are received by the ultrasonic sensor.
On the other hand, since it takes a certain period of time for the ultrasound signal to transmit through the epidermis layer of the finger to the epidermis layer, and it also takes a certain period of time for the second reflection signal generated by the reflection of the dermis layer to transmit from the dermis layer to the epidermis layer, the time when the ultrasound sensor receives the first reflection signal is earlier than the time when the second reflection signal is received. That is, the time t when the ultrasonic sensor receives the first reflected signal1And the time t of receiving the second reflected signal2With a time interval T in between. The duration T is the duration of the transmission of the ultrasonic signal from the epidermal layer of the finger to the dermis layer2 fold as shown in fig. 10.
As can be seen from the above, the ultrasonic sensor 20 in the embodiment of the present application may be integrated inside the display screen 11 to implement the on-screen fingerprint identification and touch function. The application of the electronic device 10 using the ultrasonic sensor 20 is not limited to this. Such as electronic device 10, may utilize ultrasonic sensor 20 to enable data transmission.
In the description of the present application, it is to be understood that terms such as "first", "second", and the like are used merely to distinguish one similar element from another, and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying any indication of the number of technical features indicated.
Referring to fig. 11, fig. 11 is a block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The electronic device 10 may further include a processor 142 and a memory 144, the processor 142 and the memory 144 being electrically connected, and the processor 142 and the memory 144 may be integrated on the circuit board 14.
