The embodiment of the application provides a display panel and a display device, which are used for relieving the technical problem that the ultrahigh refresh frequency cannot be realized by the existing liquid crystal display panel.
As shown in fig. 1, the present application provides a display panel, including a plurality of sub-pixels, each sub-pixel includes a collimation light source, a semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30, a filter layer 40 and a phase change layer 50, the collimation light source is used for emitting collimation light 11 towards a first direction X, the semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30 is located on a propagation path of the collimation light 11, and is used for reflecting at least part of the collimation light 11 along a second direction Y1 to obtain reflection light 12, the second direction Y1 is not parallel to the first direction X1, the filter layer 40 is located on the propagation path of the reflection light 12, and is used for transmitting part of the reflection light 12 towards the second direction Y1 to obtain target color light, a wave band of the target color light is located in a transmission wave band of the filter layer 40, a light incident surface of the phase change layer 50 corresponds to a light emergent surface of the filter layer 40, the reflection wave band of the phase change layer 50 is located in a transmission wave band range of the filter layer 40, and is used for reflecting the target color light 13 towards the semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30 along a third direction Y2, the third direction Y2 is opposite to the second direction Y1, the semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30 is also used for transmitting at least part of the target color light 12 along the third direction Y2, wherein when the target color light 13 passes through the second direction Y1, the filter layer and the phase change layer 50 corresponds to a voltage, and the phase change layer 50 changes with a phase change stage, when the phase change layer is driven, and the phase change display stage is changed, and the display stage is corresponding to a display stage.
The collimated light source includes a white light source 10 and a collimator lens 20 positioned in the light-emitting path of the white light source 10. The white light source 10 emits white light, which includes color light of various colors, such as red light, blue light, green light, etc., and the wavelength bands of the light corresponding to the various colors are different. The white light emitted from the white light source 10 has divergence, and the distance between the light rays gradually increases as the propagation distance increases, and the collimating lens 20 is disposed on a certain light-emitting path of the white light source 10, so that the white light rays passing through the collimating lens 20 become collimated light rays, that is, are parallel to each other. By the arrangement, the collimated light can be emitted to the semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30 in a uniform direction, so that the direction of the reflected light is uniform, different incidence angles of the light are prevented from influencing the reflection angle, and the final display effect is disturbed.
The transflective layer 30 has a characteristic of being semi-transmissive and semi-reflective, that is, one beam of light is irradiated onto the transflective layer 30, a part of the light can pass through the transflective layer 30, and another part of the light is reflected on the incident surface of the transflective layer 30. Therefore, when the collimated light 11 irradiates onto the transflective layer 30 along the first direction X, a part of the collimated light 11 is reflected along the second direction Y1 to obtain the reflected light 12. In this embodiment of the present application, the first direction X is not parallel to the second direction Y1, and the second direction Y1 is parallel to the light emitting direction of the display panel, which is a vertical direction in fig. 1, and according to the light reflection principle, the incident angle is equal to the reflection angle, so that the transflective layer 30 is obliquely disposed. Specifically, the inclination angle of the transflective layer 30 with respect to the second direction Y1 may be set to 45 degrees, and at this time, the first direction X is the horizontal direction, and the incident angle and the reflection angle are both 45 degrees. Alternatively, the inclination angle of the transflective layer 30 with respect to the second direction Y1 may be set to another angle as long as it is ensured that the reflected light 12 can be incident on the filter layer 40 along the specified second direction Y1.
The filter layer 40 has a characteristic of transmitting only light in certain wavelength bands, and the light in the wavelength bands can be controlled by setting the material of the filter layer 40, which is referred to as a transmission wavelength band in the embodiment of the present application, and light outside the transmission wavelength band can be regarded as being unable to be transmitted due to very low transmittance. The reflected light 12 is still white light, and when the light irradiates the filter layer 40, only the light in the transmission band of the filter layer 40 can transmit and irradiate the phase-change layer 50, and the light in other bands is prevented from transmitting, so that the target color light 13 finally irradiated to the phase-change layer 50 is color light with a single color, such as red color light, blue color light or green color light.
The phase change layer 50 has the property of reflecting only light in certain wavelength bands, and the wavelength band that the phase change layer 50 material can reflect can be controlled by setting it, which is referred to as a reflection band in the embodiment of the present application, and light outside the reflection band can be regarded as being unable to be reflected due to the very low reflectivity. The reflection band is located in the transmission band range of the filter layer 40, so that all or part of the target color light 13 can be reflected into the transflective layer 30 along the reverse third direction Y2, and then a part of the target color light 13 is transmitted by the transflective layer 30, and the transmitted target color light 13 is the color finally displayed by the display panel.
The phase change layer 50 is made of a phase change material as a base material, the phase change material has the characteristic of switching between an amorphous state and a crystalline state under the action of a driving voltage, when the driving voltage is small, the temperature of the phase change material can rise to a temperature interval below a melting temperature above a crystallization temperature, and crystal lattices are orderly arranged to form crystals, so that the amorphous state is switched to the crystalline state; conversely, when a larger driving voltage is applied, the temperature of the phase change material is increased to be higher than the melting temperature, so that the order of the crystal lattice is destroyed, and the crystal is switched from the crystalline state to the amorphous state. The phase change layer 50 can be reversibly switched between crystalline and amorphous states by varying the magnitude, duration, etc. of the driving voltage. When the state of the phase change layer 50 changes, the refractive index thereof also changes, so that the reflected light intensity changes.
The phase-change layer 50 and the filter layer 40 cooperate with each other through the reflection band and the passing band, so that the target color light 13 reflected to the semi-transparent and semi-reflective layer 30 only includes light of a certain band, and therefore only can display colors of the band, and when different driving voltages are input, the refractive index of the phase-change layer 50 changes, so that the reflected light intensity of the reflected target color light 13 can be different, and corresponding sub-pixels can display gray scales corresponding to the target color light 13. In addition, when the phase change material is switched between the amorphous state and the crystalline state, the response time is nanosecond, namely the state switching can be completed in nanosecond time, so that the gray level switching time is nanosecond, and compared with the millisecond response of liquid crystal, the gray level switching time is improved by one order of magnitude, and therefore the ultrahigh refresh frequency can be realized.
In one embodiment, the display panel includes a plurality of types of sub-pixels, and the transmission wavelength bands of the filter layer 40 corresponding to the sub-pixels are different, so that the sub-pixels of each type display different colors. For each sub-pixel, the above structures are adopted to obtain the target color light 13 of one color, corresponding to the whole display panel, the structures of the filter layer 40 and the phase change layer 50 can be adjusted to make the transmission wave band and the reflection wave band corresponding to different types of sub-pixels different, so that the sub-pixels respectively display different colors, such as red, green and blue, then the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel can be formed, the sub-pixels of three colors form a complete pixel, and finally the display panel can realize color display.
In one embodiment, the phase change layer 50 includes a plurality of phase change material layers and a plurality of auxiliary layers alternately stacked, the auxiliary layers having a different refractive index from the phase change material layers. When the phase change layer 50 is electrified, the refractive index of the phase change material layer will change, while the refractive index of the auxiliary layer is fixed and will not change, and through stacking a plurality of film layers with different refractive indexes, the target color light 13 is refracted for multiple times at the interface of the plurality of film layers, so that the control of the reflection spectrum in the usable state can be increased, and the finally required reflection light intensity can be obtained.
The phase change material layer has a first refractive index in an amorphous state and a second refractive index in a crystalline state, the first refractive index being different from the second refractive index, and the refractive index of the phase change material layer changes between the first refractive index and the second refractive index when the phase change material layer is energized. When the phase change layer 50 inputs a driving voltage, each phase change material layer is switched between a completely crystalline state and a completely amorphous state, and can be mixed in different proportion according to the magnitude of the driving voltage, for example, the phase change material layer is 30% crystalline and 70% amorphous, and according to the different proportion of the crystalline state to the amorphous state, the corresponding refractive indexes are different, and from the completely crystalline state and the completely amorphous state, a plurality of phase change material layers with different crystallization degrees can be obtained by controlling the driving voltage, each scheme corresponds to different refractive indexes, and further corresponds to different reflection light intensities, for example, 128 gray scales can be displayed when 128 refractive indexes are obtained.
In an embodiment the auxiliary layer comprises at least one sub-auxiliary layer, the refractive indices of adjacent sub-auxiliary layers being different. The sub-auxiliary layers with different refractive indexes have different extinction coefficients, so that the controllability of the reflected light intensity can be further improved when the sub-auxiliary layers are stacked together, and finally the required reflected light intensity can be obtained. The material of the sub-auxiliary layer may be silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, silver, or the like.
In one embodiment, the thickness of each film layer in the phase change layer is not equal. By stacking multiple film layers of different thickness, the reflectance spectrum can be made to reach or approach the desired ideal state.
The adjustment of the intensity of the reflected light is reflected by the wavelength difference between the reflectance peak and the transmittance peak. The working principles of the filter layer and the phase change layer are described below with reference to specific numerical values. The filter layer 40 and the phase change layer 50 in the present application each comprise a plurality of layers arranged in a stacked manner, as shown in Table 1, showing the specific materials and thicknesses of each sub-filter layer in the filter layer, as shown in Table 2, showing the specific materials and thicknesses of each layer in the phase change layer, wherein SB 2 S 3 The layer is a phase change material layer, two adjacent SB 2 S 3 The film layer between the layers is an auxiliary layer, siO 2 The layers and Ag layers are sub-auxiliary layers in the auxiliary layers.

As shown in fig. 2, the transmittance spectrum of the filter layer in table 1 is shown with the abscissa representing the Wavelength, and the ordinate representing the transmittance, the Transmission. As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the reflectance spectra of the phase change layer in table 2 in the amorphous and crystalline states, respectively, are shown with the abscissa representing Wavelength, and the ordinate representing reflectance, and reflectance. As shown in fig. 5, the reflectance spectrum of the filter layer in table 1 and the phase-change layer in table 2 after being superimposed is shown in Wavelength on the abscissa, and is shown by Wavelength, intensity on the ordinate, and is shown by transmittance (since the value of the reflectance change is small, it is difficult to distinguish the values directly from the figure by reflectance, and therefore, the value of the reflectance is shown by Intensity, and the value of the reflectance is proportional to the value of the Intensity), a is shown as the reflectance spectrum when the phase-change layer is amorphous, and B is shown as the reflectance spectrum when the phase-change layer is crystalline.
In this application, taking blue light as an example of the display of the sub-pixel, the light transmission band of the filter layer 40 in fig. 2 is 465nm to 470nm, the reflection band of the phase-change layer 50 in fig. 3 and 4 is 465nm to 470nm, and the transmittance spectrum and the reflectance spectrum have corresponding peaks. When the phase change layer 50 is changed from the amorphous state to the crystalline state, the wavelength corresponding to the reflectance peak is blue-shifted, that is, the wavelength becomes smaller.
The target color light 13 has a certain wavelength band, for example 465nm to 470nm, when the phase change layer 50 is amorphous, the reflectivity peak value of the phase change layer 50 is equal to or relatively close to the wavelength corresponding to the transmittance peak value of the filter layer 40, and is denoted as a first wavelength, when the light of the target color light is reflected by the phase change layer 50, the reflectivity of the first wavelength is highest, when the light continuously passes through the filter layer 40, the transmittance of the first wavelength is also highest, and after the light of the first wavelength passes through the phase change layer 50 and the filter layer 40, the whole of the two film layers has the first reflectivity peak value for the first wavelength.
When the phase change layer 50 is crystalline, the wavelength corresponding to the reflectance peak is blue shifted, that is, the wavelength becomes smaller, the wavelength corresponding to the reflectance peak is not equal to the wavelength corresponding to the transmittance peak and has a certain difference, the wavelength corresponding to the transmittance peak is the first wavelength, the wavelength corresponding to the reflectance peak is the second wavelength, when the light of the target color light is reflected by the phase change layer 50, the reflectance of the second wavelength is the highest, and when the reflectance of the first wavelength is lowered, the light of the first wavelength is the highest while continuing to transmit through the filter layer 40, the reflected light of the first wavelength is lowered, and even if the transmittance is kept high, the second reflectance peak of the whole of the two film layers for the first wavelength is lowered relative to the first reflectance peak.
Therefore, by adjusting the amorphous state and the crystalline state of the phase-change layer 50, the reflectivity peak value in the overall reflectivity spectrum of the two film layers can be changed, and for other wavelengths in the reflectivity spectrum, the corresponding reflectivity also changes in the same trend, namely the reflected light intensity changes, so that the gray scale adjustment is realized. In each state between amorphous and crystalline, the reflected light intensity lies between the two.
It should be noted that, the above embodiment only shows one arrangement mode of the phase-change layer, but the application is not limited to this, and the materials, thicknesses, arrangement positions, arrangement layers and the like of each sub-auxiliary layer of the phase-change material layer in the phase-change layer can be set according to the needs.
The embodiment of the application also provides a display device, which comprises the display panel and the driving chip, wherein the driving chip provides driving voltage for the display panel. The display device may be a device with a display function such as a smart watch, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a personal computer (PC, personal Computer), a micro processing box, or the like, and may implement an ultra-high refresh frequency.
As can be seen from the above embodiments:
