The present application provides a privacy film and a display device, which will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the following description of the embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of the present application.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, fig. 1 is a schematic view of a first structure of a privacy film 100 provided by the present application, and fig. 2 is a schematic plan view of liquid crystal molecules 51 of a liquid crystal layer 50 in a first mode. The embodiment of the present application further provides a peep-proof membrane 100, which includes: a first substrate 10, a second substrate 20, a liquid crystal layer 50, a first electrode 30, and a second electrode 40;
the liquid crystal layer 50 is disposed between the first substrate 10 and the second substrate 20;
the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 are disposed on the same side or different sides of the liquid crystal layer 50, at least one of the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 includes a strip-shaped electrode, and an electric field is generated in the liquid crystal layer 50 when a voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30;
in the first mode, no voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, the liquid crystal molecules 51 of the liquid crystal layer 50 have a pretilt angle a, and the privacy film 100 is in a privacy state; in the second mode, a voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, the liquid crystal layer 50 diffracts incident light perpendicular to the plane of the first substrate 10, and the privacy film 100 is in a shared state.
At least one of the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 is a strip-shaped electrode, so that an electric field is generated in a part of the liquid crystal layer 50 and the electric field is weaker or absent in another part of the liquid crystal layer 50, and thus the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 form a plurality of electric fields distributed at intervals in the liquid crystal layer 50, so that a phase difference can be generated after incident light enters the liquid crystal layer 50, the amplitude or the phase of the incident light is periodically and spatially modulated, and the liquid crystal layer 50 has a phase grating function, so that diffraction can be generated on the incident light.
In the first mode, no voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal layer 50 are aligned in a pre-alignment manner to form a uniform alignment, when light enters the liquid crystal layer 50 from a direction perpendicular to the plane of the first substrate 10, the liquid crystal layer 50 does not cause the incident light to form a phase difference due to the pre-tilt angle a of the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal layer 50, and the incident light is free from scattering and diffraction phenomena, but the effective major axis 511 of the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal dimming layer forms an included angle with the direction of the incident light in the side view direction of the privacy film 100, so that the light in the side view direction of the privacy film 100 is dark to realize privacy protection, and the privacy film 100 is in a privacy protection state. After a voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, the liquid crystal molecules 51 periodically rotate under the action of the electric field between the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, incident light perpendicular to the plane of the first substrate 10 is dispersed into polarized light with a plurality of diffraction orders through the liquid crystal layer 50, so that the incident light forms a periodic phase difference, that is, a diffraction effect is generated on the incident light perpendicular to the plane of the first substrate 10, that is, the liquid crystal cell has a high-haze scattering effect, the liquid crystal cell can scatter the incident light, the sharing effect of the privacy film 100 is realized, and the privacy film 100 is in a sharing state.
Here, the peep-proof state is a state in which the light in the side view direction of the peep-proof film 100 is dark, and the light in the front view direction of the peep-proof film 100 has normal brightness, so that an observer in the side view direction of the peep-proof film 100 sees the peep-proof film as dark. The sharing state refers to a state where light rays in the side-view direction and the front-view direction of the privacy film 100 are at normal brightness, and therefore an observer in the side-view direction and the front-view direction of the privacy film 100 sees the normal brightness of the privacy film.
And this application utilizes liquid crystal diffraction characteristic to form the phase grating to form peep-proof device, need not set up the polaroid, and peep-proof display device based on automatically controlled birefringence characteristic of liquid crystal need set up the polaroid, and this application has the advantage that the preparation process requirement is low and with low costs for peep-proof display device based on automatically controlled birefringence characteristic of liquid crystal, and peep-proof membrane 100 of this application has better reliability simultaneously.
The magnitude of the voltage applied between the first electrode 30 and the second electrode 40 is not particularly limited, and may be set as appropriate, and the maximum voltage thereof is preferably 3V to 50V, more preferably 4V to 10V, and particularly preferably 6V to 10V.
Further, at least one of the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 includes at least two strip electrodes, and the at least two strip electrodes are spaced apart from each other.
In some embodiments, a ratio of a length of the strip-shaped electrode perpendicular to an extending direction of the strip-shaped electrode to a distance between adjacent strip-shaped electrodes perpendicular to the extending direction of the strip-shaped electrode is greater than or equal to 0.7 and less than or equal to 0.78. The ratio parameter between the length of the strip-shaped electrode perpendicular to the extending direction of the strip-shaped electrode and the distance between the adjacent strip-shaped electrodes perpendicular to the extending direction of the strip-shaped electrode can be set based on the response time of the liquid crystal molecules 51 and the haze requirement of the privacy film 100. Further, the strip-shaped electrodes extend along a straight line direction.
The liquid crystal layer 50 includes a polymer network 52 and liquid crystal molecules 51 distributed in the polymer network 52. When the liquid crystal molecules 51 are pre-aligned, the liquid crystal molecules 51 may be tilted to a predetermined angle by an electric field, and then the polymer in the dimming liquid crystal layer 50 is cured by ultraviolet light or the like to form a polymer network 52, and after the electric field is removed, the polymer network 52 maintains the liquid crystal molecules 51 tilted to the predetermined angle. In the above case, an optimal setting angle can be selected according to actual needs, and then the polymer network 52 is used to maintain the liquid crystal molecules 51 tilted at the setting angle.
It should be noted that, the present application may also adopt an alignment film to pre-align the liquid crystal molecules, and the pre-alignment of the liquid crystal molecules by using the alignment film is a conventional technical means in the art, and will not be explained in detail herein.
Further, in some embodiments, the electrical anisotropy of the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal layer 50 is greater than or equal to 7 and less than or equal to 15.2. The dielectric constant of the liquid crystal molecules 51 differs in magnitude in the long axis 511 and the short axis direction, and it is generally defined that the dielectric constant component in the long axis 511 direction of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is ∈/and the dielectric constant component perpendicular to the long axis 511 direction of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is ∈ j, and the difference Δ ∈ = ∈/∈ j. When Δ ∈ >0, the liquid crystal is electrically referred to as positive liquid crystal, and the long axis 511 of the liquid crystal molecule 51 rotates toward a direction parallel to the electric lines of force; when Δ ∈ <0, it is called negative liquid crystal, and the long axis 511 of the liquid crystal rotates toward the direction perpendicular to the electric lines of force. The liquid crystal material and the liquid crystal molecules 51 with positive dielectric anisotropy have the characteristics of high phase transition temperature, high-speed response (low rotational viscosity) and the like, and the electric anisotropy of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is more than or equal to 7 and less than or equal to 15.2, so that a very good diffraction effect can be achieved.
Further, in some embodiments, the optical anisotropy of the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal layer 50 is greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 3. The optical refractive index of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is different in size between the long axis 511 and the short axis, the refractive index component in the long axis 511 is n/and the refractive index component perpendicular to the long axis 511 of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is n ≠ j. The component of the light that is refracted by the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the direction following the law of refraction is called ordinary light, i.e., o light; the other component does not follow the law of refraction and is called extraordinary light, i.e., e-light. The vibration directions of the o light and the e light are mutually perpendicular. Since the propagation velocities of the o-light and the e-light are different, the o-light and the e-light have a phase difference after transmitting the liquid crystal molecules 51, and the magnitude of the phase difference determines the vibration direction and intensity of the light after combining the two. In the present application, the optical anisotropy of the liquid crystal molecules 51 is set to be greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 3, so that the liquid crystal layer 50 can form a good phase liquid crystal grating, and thus a very good diffraction effect can be achieved.
Further, in some embodiments, the first electrode 30 is disposed on a side of the first substrate 10 close to the liquid crystal layer 50, the second electrode 40 is disposed on a side of the first electrode 30 close to the liquid crystal layer 50, and an insulating layer 60 is disposed between the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30.
Specifically, in the first mode, the pretilt angle a is an included angle between a long axis 511 of the liquid crystal molecules 51 in the liquid crystal layer 50 and the extending direction of the strip-shaped electrodes, and the pretilt angle a is greater than zero degrees and less than or equal to 15 degrees. Further, in the first mode, the pretilt angle a is 5 degrees or 7 degrees or 10 degrees, at this time.
The first electrode 30 is a full-surface electrode, and the second electrode 40 is a stripe electrode.
Referring to the following table, which shows experimental parameters for performing a side view on the haze of the privacy film 100, it can be known from the parameters of the table that no voltage is applied to the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30, the liquid crystal molecules 51 of the liquid crystal layer 50 have the pretilt angle a, and the privacy film 100 is in the privacy state, where the privacy film 100 has the minimum haze. When the applied voltage of the second electrode 40 and the first electrode 30 reaches a predetermined value and the thickness of the liquid crystal layer 50 is a predetermined value, and the parameters of the electrical anisotropy and the optical anisotropy of the liquid crystal molecules 51 are matched, the maximum haze may be obtained, and at this time, the privacy film 100 is in the sharing state.
