The first insulating layer 230 provides insulation protection for the NFC module 100 to prevent short circuit.

The NFC module 100 functions as an NFC function, and in a specific work project, the NFC ferrite 120 bunches magnetic flux to effectively increase an induction distance by increasing a magnetic field intensity, and the NFC coil 110 is used for generating an NFC signal. This application is through setting up NFC coil 110 on light source subassembly layer 220 and imbed within first insulating layer 230, make NFC coil 110 need not to occupy the superpose space alone, and then avoid occupation of NFC module 100 to backlight unit 200 superpose space, can effectively reduce this application display device thickness, through experimental data statistics, adopt the design of this application NFC module 100 and backlight unit 200 adaptation, display device's thickness attenuate about 100 mu m about, do benefit to display device to frivolous development, and then be favorable to electronic equipment to design towards thinner direction.

In the specific process implementation, the NFC coil 110 may be first attached to the light source module layer 220 in an evaporation manner, and then the first insulating layer 230 is stacked on the light source module layer 220 in a vapor deposition manner, so that the NFC coil 110 is located in the first insulating layer 230, thereby achieving the assembling of the display device of the present application. The specific material of the NFC coil 110 may be transparent ITO, nano silver, TiAlTi, or the like, and as an alternative process, the ITO and TiAlTi may be disposed on the light source assembly layer 220 in a magnetron sputtering manner, and the nano silver may be disposed on the light source assembly layer 220 in a liquid coating method.

Further, the NFC coil 110 may be disposed as a transparent trace to further improve the screen occupation ratio. Meanwhile, the NFC coil 110 can flexibly adjust the proportion of the transparent metal components by adopting an evaporation process so as to adapt to different working scenes.

In a more specific embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the NFC coil 110 extends along an edge of the backlight module 200 and is disposed in a plurality of turns, the backlight module 200 includes a display area 200a and a non-display area 200b, the non-display area 200b is disposed around the display area 200a, a portion of the NFC coil 110 is located in the display area 200a, and another portion of the NFC coil 110 is located in the non-display area 200 b. Such a layout mode can effectively prevent the NFC coil 110 from entering the center of the display area 200a to reduce the screen occupation ratio, and the regular routing mode is also beneficial to avoiding the problem of card reading and screen flashing.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the NFC coil 110 includes a first coil end 111 adjacent to a center of the backlight assembly 200 and a second coil end 112 adjacent to an edge of the backlight assembly 200. The display device further includes a first flexible circuit board 300.

The first end of the first flexible circuit board 300 is connected to the edge of the backlight module 200 and electrically connected to the second coil end 112, and the first coil end 111 is electrically connected to the first flexible circuit board 300 through the bridging trace 400.

The first flexible circuit board 300 may be designed to transmit the NFC signal generated by the NFC module 100 to an external chip to complete signal transmission. The first flexible circuit board 300 is disposed at the edge of the backlight module 200, and is coupled to the bridging trace 400 and communicates with the first coil end 111 and the second coil end 112, so that the first flexible circuit board 300 can be ensured to be away from the center of the backlight module 200 while effectively transmitting the NFC signal, thereby avoiding interference with the operation of the backlight module 200.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the backlight module 200 may further include a first protective layer 240. The light source module layer 220, the first insulating layer 230, and the first protective layer 240 are sequentially stacked. The first portion of the bridge trace 400 is disposed in the first insulating layer 230, and the second portion of the bridge trace 400 is disposed in the first protective layer 240.

Here, the first protection layer 240 may be made of different materials according to different working scenarios, for example, an organic photoresist layer for preventing water and oxygen corrosion is used to prevent water and oxygen corrosion, or the first protection layer 240 is made of the same material as the first insulation layer 230 to provide insulation protection.

The bridging trace 400 is partially located in the first insulating layer 230, so that the first coil end 111 can be connected while the first insulating layer 230 keeps a gap with other parts of the NFC coil 110, and the first insulating layer 230 can prevent a short circuit between the bridging trace 400 and the NFC coil 110; the first portion of the bridging trace 400 is disposed in the first insulating layer 230, and the second portion of the bridging trace 400 is disposed in the first protective layer 240, so that the bridging trace 400 is embedded between the first insulating layer 230 and the first protective layer 240, thereby preventing the bridging trace 400 from occupying the stacking space of the backlight module 200, and further thinning the display device.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, for the specific structure of the light source module layer 220, the light source module layer 220 may be configured to include a light guide layer 224 and a light source 225. The light source 225 is disposed on one side of the light guiding layer 224, and the light source module layer 220 is stacked on the first insulating layer 230 through the light guiding layer 224. The light emitted from the light source 225 will enter the light guiding layer 224 and emit a first portion of light through the light guiding layer 224 and back to the NFC ferrite 120. Because the whole area of leaded light layer 224 is greater than light source 225, light source subassembly layer 220 will give out light with the form of area source like this finally, will make the more even sending of light through leaded light layer 224, and luminous effect is better.

More specifically, the light source module layer 220 may further include a reflective cover 226. The reflector 226 covers the light source 225 and is disposed opposite to the light guide layer 224, and a reflective opening is disposed on a side of the reflector 226 facing the light guide layer 224. The light emitted from the light source 225 is reflected by the reflector 226 and then enters the light guide layer 224 through the reflective opening.

Thus, the light emitted from the light source 225 not only directly enters the light guide layer 224, but also partially enters the light guide layer 224 through the reflection opening after being reflected by the reflection cover 226, so that the light entering the light guide layer 224 is increased, the brightness of the light emitted from the light guide layer 224 is enhanced, and the utilization rate of the light can be improved.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the backlight assembly 200 may include a reflective layer 210, and the reflective layer 210 may be stacked between the NFC ferrite 120 and the light source module layer 220. The light emitted from the light source 225 is incident into the light guiding layer 224, and a second portion of the light is emitted toward the reflective layer 210 through the light guiding layer 224. The second part of the light is reflected by the reflective layer 210 and then emitted toward the first part of the light. Thus, through the arrangement of the reflective layer 210, the second part of light can be reflected to the light emitting direction of the backlight module 200, i.e. the first part of light and the second part of light are converged and emitted in the same direction, and the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight module 200 is enhanced, thereby improving the utilization rate of the light.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the light source module layers 220 may include end outer edges 221. The first insulating layer 230 forms a first projection on the light source module layer 220, and the end portion outer edge 221 forms a second projection on the light source module layer 220, wherein the first projection and the second projection are coplanar and located on one side of the second projection. The first electrode sheet 222 and the second electrode sheet 223 are fixed on the surface of the outer edge 221 of the end portion facing the display direction of the backlight module 200, the first end of the first flexible circuit board 300 is used for being electrically connected with the first electrode sheet 222 and the second electrode sheet 223, the first coil end 111 is electrically connected with the first electrode sheet 222 through the bridging wire 400, and the second coil end 112 is electrically connected with the second electrode sheet 223. The second end of the first flexible circuit board 300 is used for electrical connection with a main board of the electronic device.

In this way, the first electrode sheet 222 and the second electrode sheet 223 can be fully exposed through the arrangement of the end outer edge 221, so that the connection between the NFC coil 110 and the first flexible circuit board 300 is facilitated, and the signal generated by the NFC coil 110 is more favorably transmitted to the first flexible circuit board 300 by using the first electrode sheet 222 and the second electrode sheet 223 as intermediate transmission media.

The first electrode sheet 222 and the second electrode sheet 223 may be made of ITO, nano silver, TiAlTi, or the like, and may be deposited on the surface of the light source module layer 220.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the backlight assembly 200 may further include a diffusion layer 250, and the diffusion layer 250 is stacked on a side of the first protective layer 240 facing away from the first insulating layer 230. The diffusion layer 250 is used for diffusing the light emitted from the light source module layer 220 to make the light emitted more uniformly, so as to enhance the light emitting effect of the light source module layer 220.

Further, the backlight module 200 may further include a light-enhancing layer 260, wherein the light-enhancing layer 260 is stacked on a side of the diffusion layer 250 facing away from the first protective layer 240. The light-increasing layer 260 has a light-condensing effect, and light emitted by the light source module layer 220 is uniformly diffused by the diffusion layer 250, and then the brightness of the light-increasing layer 260 is increased, so that the light-emitting effect of the light source module layer 220 is further enhanced.

Furthermore, as shown in fig. 3, the first end of the first flexible circuit board 300 is fixed to the first electrode plate 222 and the second electrode plate 223 in an overlapping manner, and a colloid 500 is disposed between the end surfaces of the first electrode plate 222 and the second electrode plate 223 and the first flexible circuit board 300 to ensure that the connection is more stable, and meanwhile, the colloid 500 can prevent the first end of the first flexible circuit board 300 from being bent at a larger angle, so as to protect the first flexible circuit board 300. The glue 500 may be a vertical line glue as a bonding agent.

Further, the NFC coil 110, the first electrode sheet 222, and the second electrode sheet 223 are disposed on the same layer. For example, the light source module layers are disposed on the surface of the light source module layer 220 and located in the first insulating layer 230, so as to improve the space utilization and further avoid occupying the overlapping space of the backlight module 200.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the surface of the NFC ferrite 120 facing the reflective layer 210 is a first end surface on which the protruding ring 121 is disposed. The projection of NFC coil 110 on the first end face is located in the projection of convex ring 121 on the first end face. The surface of the NFC ferrite 120 surrounded by the convex ring 121 can serve as a receiving surface for sending signals to the NFC coil 110, and the addition of the convex ring 121 on the surface of the NFC ferrite 120 can further focus magnetic flux, thereby improving the strength and stability of NFC signals.

In a further technical scheme, the support frame is the NFC ferrite 120, and under such a condition, the support frame is multiplexed with the NFC ferrite 120, so that the support frame of the backlight module 200 can exert an effect of dual purposes, the problem of thickness increase caused by stacking more structures on the backlight module 200 is avoided, and the display device is further facilitated to be designed towards a thinner direction.

It should be further noted that the specific process of sequentially stacking the reflective layer 210, the light source module layer 220, the first insulating layer 230, the first protective layer 240, the diffusion layer 250 and the light-enhancing layer 260 can be realized by vapor deposition.
