The use level of levelling agent is preferably below 5 weight portions with respect to being coated with total resinous principle 100 weight portions that form material firmly, more preferably the scope of 0.01~5 weight portion.
When in being coated with the curing mechanism that forms material firmly, using ultraviolet ray, form in the material if above-mentioned levelling agent is coupled to be coated with firmly, this levelling agent is exuded to air interface when preparation drying and solvent seasoning, hinder the curing of uv curing resin so can prevent block, even can obtain the hard conating 2 that also has enough hardness the most surperficial.In addition, the levelling agent of silicone-based is given lubricity by oozing out to the surface of hard conating 2,, so also can improve mar resistance.
In the formation material of above-mentioned hard conating 2, can in the scope of not damaging formation, add pigment, filling agent, spreading agent, plastifier, ultraviolet light absorber, surfactant, antioxidant, thixotropic agent etc. as required.These adjuvants can use separately, can also be also with more than 2 kinds.
Form in the material being coated with firmly of present embodiment, can use known in the past Photoepolymerizationinitiater initiater.For example, can use 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenyl acetophenone, acetophenone, benzophenone, xanthone, 3-methyl acetophenone, 4-chlorobenzophenone, 4,4 '-dimethoxy-benzophenone, benzoin propyl ether, benzyl dimethyl ketal, N, N, N ', N '-tetramethyl-4,4 '-diaminobenzophenone, 1-(4-isopropyl ether)-2-hydroxy-2-methyl propane-1-ketone, other thioxanthones based compounds etc.
In order to form above-mentioned hard conating 2, on film substrate 1 coating contain urethane acrylate (A), polyvalent alcohol (methyl) acrylate (B) at least and have the alkyl that contains 2 above hydroxyls (methyl) acrylate copolymer (C) be coated with the formation material firmly, make its curing subsequently.Being coated with the formation material firmly can apply as the solution that is dissolved in solvent when coating.When being coated with firmly when forming material and applying, after drying, solidify as solution.
As the above-mentioned method that forms material that is coated with firmly of coating on film substrate 1, coating process such as can use that known injection (fountain) coating, mouthful pattern coating, spin coating, spraying, intaglio printing coating, roller coat, rod are coated with.
The above-mentioned curing mechanism that forms material that is coated with firmly is not particularly limited, but preferred ionizing radiation solidifies.Can in this mechanism, use various active-energies, but ultraviolet ray is proper.As the energy line source, line sources such as for example preferred high-pressure mercury-vapor lamp, Halogen lamp LED, xenon lamp, metal halide lamp, nitrogen laser, electron ray accelerator, radioelement.With regard to the exposure of energy line source, as the accumulated exposure amount at ultraviolet wavelength 365nm place, preferred 50~5000mJ/cm 2When exposure less than 50mJ/cm 2The time, solidify insufficient, so the hardness of hard conating reduces sometimes.In addition, when surpassing 5000mJ/cm 2The time, the painted and transparent reduction of hard conating sometimes.
As shown in Figure 2, can on above-mentioned hard conating 2, anti-reflection layer 4 be set, make antireflective hard coating film 5.Fig. 2 is the summary schematic cross-section of the antireflective hard coating film 5 of expression present embodiment.Light is when shining object, and it is so-called in the reflection at its interface, in the absorption of inside, the phenomenon of scattering to repeat, and sees through to the back side of object.When on image display device, hard-coated film being installed,, can enumerate reflection of light at air and hard conating interface as the one of the main reasons that the identification that makes image reduces.Anti-reflection layer 4 is the layers that reduce its surface reflection.In addition, though in Fig. 2, do not demonstrate, also hard conating 2 and anti-reflection layer 4 can be arranged on the two sides of film substrate 1.In addition, in Fig. 2, illustration hard conating 2 and anti-reflection layer 4 each situation of 1 layer are set, as long as but have hard conating of the present invention, anti-reflection layer 4 can be more than 2 layers.
As anti-reflection layer 4, can enumerate the layer that the stacked strict optical thin film (anti-reflection layer) of having controlled thickness and refractive index forms on hard conating 2 surfaces.This is to have utilized the phase place of the incident light of interference of light effect and catoptrical reverse to show the method for anti-reflective function by mutual elimination.
In design,, the method for the refringence that increases anti-reflection layer 4 and hard conating 2 is arranged as the mechanism that improves its interference effect based on the anti-reflection layer 4 of interference of light effect.Usually, with regard to regard to optical thin film (film of strict above-mentioned thickness of control and refractive index) the multilayer anti-reflection layer of folded 2~5 layers of layers on substrates, by only forming the different composition of multilayer refractive index with the thickness of stipulating, degree of freedom increases aspect the optical design of anti-reflection layer 4, can further improve anti-reflection effect, dividing reflective character to flatten in the visible region also becomes possibility.Because require the thickness and precision of each layer of optical thin film, usually adopt vacuum evaporation as the dry type mode, sputter, CVD etc. to carry out the formation of each layer.
Form in the material above-mentioned being coated with firmly, can use titanium dioxide, zirconia, monox, magnesium fluoride etc., but, preferably use the duplexer of titanium oxide layer and silicon oxide layer in order to demonstrate anti-reflective function biglyyer.Above-mentioned duplexer is preferred, on hard conating, form the high titanium oxide layer (refractive index: about 1.8) of refractive index, on this titanium oxide layer, form the low silicon oxide layer of refractive index (refractive index: 2 layer laminates that about 1.45) obtain, and then on this 2 layer laminates, form titanium oxide layer and silicon oxide layer in order and 4 layer laminates that form.By the anti-reflection layer of such 2 layer laminates or 4 layer laminates is set, can reduce wavelength region may (380~780nm) the reflection of luminous ray equably.
In addition, the optical thin film by stacked individual layer on film substrate 1 can demonstrate anti-reflection effect.Even anti-reflection layer 4 is being made in the design of individual layer,, be necessary to increase the refringence of anti-reflection layer 4 and hard conating 2 in order to draw anti-reflective function to greatest extent.When the thickness with above-mentioned anti-reflection layer 4 is made as d, refractive index is made as n, when the incident light wavelength is made as λ, becomes the relational expression of nd=λ/4 between the thickness of anti-reflection layer 4 and its refractive index.When anti-reflection layer 4 when being its refractive indexes less than the such low-index layer of the refractive index of film substrate 1, under the condition that the above-mentioned relation formula is set up, it is minimum that reflectivity reaches.For example, when the refractive index of anti-reflection layer 4 was 1.45, with respect to the incident light of the wavelength of the 550nm in the luminous ray, the thickness of the anti-reflection layer 4 that reflectivity becomes hour became 95nm.
The wavelength region may that demonstrates the luminous ray of anti-reflective function is that the high wavelength region may of 380~780nm, particularly visibility is the scope of 450~650nm, and what carry out usually is to be designed to minimum as the reflectivity of the 550nm of its centre wavelength.
When single layer designs anti-reflection layer 4, its thickness and precision does not have the thickness and precision of multilayer anti-reflection layer strict like that, at least with respect to design thickness in ± 10% scope, promptly design wavelength its thickness when 95nm just can use in the scope of 86nm~105nm no problemly.Thus, usually when forming the anti-reflection layer 4 of individual layer, coating process such as can adopt that injection coating, mouthful pattern coating, spin coating, spraying, intaglio printing coating, roller coat, rod as the wet type mode is coated with.
As the material that forms anti-reflection layer 4 with individual layer, for example can enumerate resin system materials such as ultraviolet curing based acrylic resin, the mixed stocker material that has disperseed inorganic particles such as colloidal silica in resin, has used the sol-gel based material of metal alkoxides such as purity titanium tetraethoxide etc. at tetraethoxysilane.In addition, each material can use fluorochemicals in order to give surface soiling.From the aspect of mar resistance, the low-refraction layer material that inorganic constituents content is many compares look, special preferred sols-gel based material.The sol-gel based material can use in the part condensation.

Reflection type polarizer is provided with the reflection horizon and forms on polaroid, can be used for forming the liquid crystal indicator of the type that reflection shows from the incident light of identification side (demonstration side) incident etc., and can omit the built-in of light sources such as backlight, thereby have advantages such as being easy to make the liquid crystal indicator slimming.When forming reflection type polarizer, can be undertaken by the suitable modes such as mode of on the one side of polaroid, setting up the reflection horizon of forming by metal etc. by above-mentioned transparent protective film etc. as required.
As the object lesson of reflection type polarizer, can be exemplified as by as required on the one side of the transparent protective film of handling through delustring, set up the paper tinsel formed by reflective metal such as aluminium or vapor-deposited film and form the polaroid etc. in reflection horizon.
Instead reflecting plate directly is attached to the method on the transparent protective film of above-mentioned polaroid, the reflection horizon can also be set on the suitable film that with this transparent membrane is benchmark forms reflector plate etc. and then use.Also have; because the reflection horizon is made up of metal usually; so decline from the reflectivity that prevents to cause owing to oxidation; and then keep the viewpoint of initial reflectance and the viewpoint of avoiding establishing protective seam in addition to wait for a long time, preferably cover the type of service of the state of its reflecting surface with transparent protective film or polaroid etc.
Also have, in above-mentioned, the semi-transmission type polaroid can obtain the reflection horizon of the semi-transmission types such as semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens of light transmission when making with reflective layer reflects light.The semi-transmission type polaroid is located at the rear side of liquid crystal cells usually, can form the liquid crystal indicator of following type etc., promptly, in brighter environment, use under the situation of liquid crystal indicator etc., reflection comes from the incident light of identification side (demonstration side) and display image, in darker environment, use built-in built-in light sources such as backlight to come display image.That is, the semi-transmission type polaroid is very useful in the formation of the liquid crystal indicator of following type etc.,, can save the energy that uses light sources such as backlight under bright environment that is, also can use built-in light source under darker environment.
Ellipsoidal polarizing plate or circular polarizing disk that further laminated phase-difference plate on polaroid is constituted describe.Rectilinearly polarized light being changed into elliptically polarized light or circularly polarized light, elliptically polarized light or circularly polarized light being changed into rectilinearly polarized light or changed under the situation of polarization direction of rectilinearly polarized light, can use polarizer etc.Particularly, as rectilinearly polarized light being changed into circularly polarized light, circularly polarized light being changed into the polarizer of rectilinearly polarized light, can use so-called 1/4 wavelength plate (being also referred to as λ/4 plates).1/2 wavelength plate (being also referred to as λ/2 plates) is generally used for changing the situation of the polarization direction of rectilinearly polarized light.
Ellipsoidal polarizing plate can be used for following situation etc. effectively, i.e. compensation (preventing) STN (Super Twisted Nematic) type liquid crystal indicator painted (blue or yellow) that produce because of the birefringence of liquid crystal layer for example, thus carry out the above-mentioned painted white black situation that shows etc. that do not have.In addition, it is painted that the polaroid of control three-dimensional refractive index produces in the time of can also compensating (preventing) from the picture of oblique observation liquid crystal indicator, thereby preferred.Circular polarizing disk for example can be used for effectively to situation of adjusting with the tone of the image of the reflection-type liquid-crystal display device of color display image etc., but also has the function of reflecting of preventing.As the object lesson of above-mentioned polarizer, can enumerate the film that the suitable polymer blend of polycarbonate, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polystyrene, polymethylmethacrylate, polypropylene or other polyolefin, polyarylate (Port リ ア リ レ one ト), polyamide and so on is formed implement the oriented film of birefringent film that stretch processing forms or liquid crystal polymer, with the film of the oriented layer of film support liquid crystal polymer etc.Polarizer can be that for example various wavelength plates or the be used to material that compensates the painted or visual angle that the birefringence by liquid crystal layer causes etc. etc. has the material corresponding to the suitable phase differential of application target, also can be stacked more than 2 kinds polarizer and controlled the material etc. of optical characteristics such as phase differential.
Above-mentioned in addition ellipsoidal polarizing plate or reflection-type ellipsoidal polarizing plate are by suitably combination and laminated polarizing sheet or reflection type polarizer and polarizer form.This class ellipsoidal polarizing plate etc. also can form by stacked respectively successively (reflection-type) polaroid and polarizer in the manufacture process of liquid crystal indicator, to constitute the combination of (reflection-type) polaroid and polarizer, and as mentioned above, be pre-formed member for optical thin films such as ellipsoidal polarizing plates, because outstanding, therefore has the advantage of the manufacturing efficient that can improve liquid crystal indicator etc. at aspects such as quality of stability or lamination operation.
The viewing angle compensation film is also to make image seem more clearly, be used to enlarge the film of field angle under the situation of the direction that tilts a little observation liquid crystal display picture that is not orthogonal to picture.As this kind viewing angle compensation polarizer, by for example oriented film such as phase-contrast film, liquid crystal polymer or in the transparent base upper support material etc. of oriented layer such as liquid crystal polymer constitute.Common polarizer uses the birefringent thin polymer film that has of implementing unilateral stretching on its face direction, relative therewith, as in the polarizer of viewing angle compensation film, can use and implement having birefringent thin polymer film or on the face direction, implementing unilateral stretching and the refractive index of controlling thickness direction that on thickness direction, also is stretched and have birefringent polymkeric substance or the biaxially oriented film as the tilted alignment film etc. of two-way stretch on the face direction.As the tilted alignment film, for example can enumerate behind the bonding heat-shrinkable film on the thin polymer film under effect because of the convergent force that adds thermosetting, thin polymer film is carried out stretch processing or/and the material of shrink process, make the material of liquid crystal polymer tilted alignment etc.The raw polymer of polarizer can use with in front polarizer in the polymer phase that illustrates with polymkeric substance, can use the painted grade that variation caused at the identification angle that will prevent the phase differential that causes based on liquid crystal cells or enlarge the suitable material as purpose such as the good field angle of identification.
In addition, wait from the viewpoint that realizes the wide visual field angle that identification is good, can preferably use with triacetylcellulose film and support the optical compensation polarizer that optical anisotropic layer that the tilted alignment layer by the oriented layer of liquid crystal polymer, particularly discoid liquid crystal polymer constitutes forms.
The back side one side that polaroid and the film adhered polaroid that together forms of brightness improving is set at usually liquid crystal cells is then used.The brightness improving film is the film that shows below characteristic, promptly, when natural light incident being arranged because of the backlight of liquid crystal indicator etc. or from the reflection of rear side etc., the rectilinearly polarized light of reflection regulation polarizing axis or the circularly polarized light of prescribed direction, and make other light transmissions.Therefore brightness improving film and the stacked polaroid that forms of polaroid can be made the light incident from light sources such as backlights, and obtain the light that sees through of regulation polarized light state, simultaneously, the light beyond the described regulation polarized light state can not see through and quilt is reflected.By reflection horizon that is arranged at its rear side etc. the light that reflects on this brightness improving pellicular front is reversed once more, and make it to incide once more on the brightness improving film, make its part or all light transmission as the regulation polarized light state, thereby increase the light that sees through the brightness improving film, simultaneously provide the polarized light that is difficult to absorb to polariscope, can be thereby increase in the light quantity of utilization in the demonstration of image etc., and can improve brightness thus.Promptly, pass polariscope and make under the situation of light incident from the rear side of liquid crystal cells with backlight etc. not using the brightness improving film, have light with the inconsistent polarization direction of polariscopic polarizing axis and be polarized mirror basically and absorb, thereby can't see through polariscope.That is, though can be different because of employed polariscopic characteristic, about 50% light can be polarized mirror and sponge, and therefore, the light quantity that can utilize in liquid crystal image demonstration etc. will reduce, and cause the image deepening.Because the brightness improving film carries out following operation repeatedly, promptly, making the light with the polarization direction that can be polarized the mirror absorption is not to incide on the polariscope, but such light is reflected on the brightness improving film, and then finish counter-rotating by reflection horizon of being located at its rear side etc., light is incided on the brightness improving film once more, like this, the brightness improving film only makes in the light of the two reflection and counter-rotating, its polarization direction becomes and can see through by the polarized light of polariscopic polarization direction, provide it to polariscope simultaneously, therefore can in the demonstration of the image of liquid crystal indicator, use the light of backlight etc. effectively, thereby can make picture bright.
Also can between brightness improving film and described reflection horizon etc., diffuser plate be set.Towards described reflection horizon etc., set diffuser plate can spread the light that passes through equably by the light of the polarized light state of brightness improving film reflection, eliminates polarized light state simultaneously and becomes the nonpolarized light state.That is, diffuser plate makes polarized light return to original natural light state.Carry out following process repeatedly, that is, and with this nonpolarized light state light directive reflection horizon that is the natural light state etc., after reflections such as reflection horizon, once more by diffuser plate and incide on the brightness improving film.Make polarized light return to the diffuser plate of original natural light state by between brightness improving film and above-mentioned reflection horizon etc., being provided with, can be in the brightness of keeping display frame, reduce the brightness disproportionation of display frame, thereby even and bright picture can be provided.By this diffuser plate is set, can suitably increase the repeated reflection number of times of first incident light, and utilize the diffusion function of diffuser plate, the display frame of homogeneous and bright can be provided.
As above-mentioned brightness improving film, for example can use: the demonstration of thin-film multilayer duplexer that dielectric multilayer film or refractive index anisotropy are different and so on send as an envoy to the rectilinearly polarized light of regulation polarizing axis see through and reflect the characteristic of other light film, cholesteric liquid crystal polymer oriented film or in the film substrate upper support the demonstrating any circularly polarized light reflection that will be in left-handed or the dextrorotation of film and so on of this aligned liquid-crystal layer and film that the film etc. of the characteristic of other light transmissions is suited.
Therefore, in the brightness improving film of the type that the above-mentioned rectilinearly polarized light that makes the regulation polarizing axis sees through, directly incide on the polaroid by making this see through light, can when suppressing the absorption loss that causes by polaroid, light be seen through effectively along the direction consistent with polarizing axis.On the other hand, in the brightness improving film that makes the type that circularly polarized light sees through of cholesteric and so on, though light is incided on the polariscope, but consider from suppressing the absorption loss this point, preferably this circularly polarized light carry out rectilinearly polarized lightization, reenter afterwards and be mapped on the polaroid by polarizer.And, by using 1/4 wavelength plate, circularly polarized light can be transformed to rectilinearly polarized light as this polarizer.
About in the wide wavelength coverage in visible region, playing the polarizer of 1/4 wavelength plate effect, for example can utilize following mode to obtain, that is, the phase separation layer that will play 1/4 wavelength plate effect with respect to the light luminous energy of wavelength 550nm carries out overlapping mode etc. with the phase separation layer that the phase separation layer that shows other phase difference characteristics for example can play 1/2 wavelength plate effect.So the polarizer that is disposed between polaroid and the brightness improving film can be made of the phase separation layer more than 1 layer or 2 layers.
Also have, with regard to cholesteric, also can make up the material of different reflection wavelengths, constitute overlapping arrangement more than 2 layers or 3 layers, obtain the member of wide wavelength coverage internal reflection circularly polarized light thus, thereby can obtain the circularly polarized light that sees through of broad wavelength coverage based on this in the visible region.
In addition, polaroid is as described polarized light divergence type polaroid, can be made of the member of stacked polaroid and the optical layers more than 2 layers or 3 layers.So, also can be to have made up the reflection-type ellipsoidal polarizing plate of above-mentioned reflection type polarizer or semi-transmission type polaroid and polarizer or semi-transmission type ellipsoidal polarizing plate etc.
Hard-coated film is to stacked to polaroid of the stacked and then various optical layers of above-mentioned optical element, also can form by independent successively stacked mode in the manufacture process of liquid crystal indicator etc., and that the stacked in advance member that they form has at aspects such as quality of stability or assembly manipulations is outstanding, and improves the advantage of the manufacturing process of liquid crystal indicator etc.In stacked, can use suitable bonding agencies such as bonding coat.When bonding above-mentioned polaroid or other optical thin films, can their optic axis be adjusted into suitable arrangement angles according to purpose phase difference characteristics etc.
At above-mentioned polaroid or be laminated with at least on 1 layer the one side at least of optical component of optical thin film etc. of polaroid, be provided with above-mentioned hard-coated film, but be not provided with on the face of hard-coated film, can be provided for and the bonding bonding coats of other members such as liquid crystal cells yet.The bonding agent that forms bonding coat is not particularly limited, for example can selects aptly to use with bonding agent such as the polymkeric substance of acrylic acid series polymeric compounds, silicone-based polymkeric substance, polyester, polycarbamate, polyamide, polyethers, fluorine system or rubber system etc. as base polymer.The preferred especially optical transparence that uses similar acrylic adhesive is good and demonstrate the adhesion characteristic and the good bonding agents such as against weather or thermotolerance of wetting state, coherency and the cementability of appropriateness.
And, except above-mentioned, from prevent the foamed phenomenon that causes because of moisture absorption or peel off phenomenon, the warpage of the decline of the optical characteristics that causes because of thermal expansion difference etc. or liquid crystal cells and then from the viewpoints such as formation of the good liquid crystal indicator of high-quality and permanance, the bonding coat of the low and excellent heat resistance of preferred hydroscopicity.
In above-mentioned tackifier or bonding agent, can contain and the corresponding crosslinking chemical of base polymer.In addition, for example natural or synthetic resin, particularly tackifying resin or the filling agent that constitutes by glass fibre, beaded glass, metal powder, other inorganic powder etc., pigment, colorant, antioxidant etc. can be contained in bonding coat etc. and adjuvant in the bonding coat can be made an addition to.Also can be to contain particulate and the diffusible bonding coat of display light etc. in addition.
Bonding coat can utilize suitable mode to carry out to setting up of optical elements such as polaroid, optical thin film.As its example, for example can enumerate following mode, promptly be modulated at the binder solution of about 10~40 weight % that dissolving in the solvent that pure material or potpourri by suitable solvent such as toluene or ethyl acetates constitute or dispersion base polymer or its composition form, directly it be attached to mode on the optical element by suitable expansion mode such as curtain coating mode or application pattern then; Perhaps based on above-mentioned and after forming bonding coat on the separator with its handover and stick on mode on the optical element etc.Bonding coat also can be as forming with each layer or the overlapping layer of the layer that kind etc. is different and being provided with.The thickness of bonding coat can suitably be determined according to application target or bonding force etc., be generally 1~500 μ m, preferred 5~200 μ m, preferred especially 10~100 μ m.
For the face that exposes of bonding coat, for before using in order to prevent its pollution etc., can paste separator to cover temporarily.Can prevent the phenomenon that under common mode of operation, contacts thus with bonding coat.As separator, on the basis of satisfying above-mentioned thickness condition, for example can use as required with suitable removers such as silicone-based or chain alkyl system, fluorine system or molybdenum sulfides plastic sheeting, sheet rubber, paper, cloth, nonwoven fabrics, net, foam sheet or metal forming, their suitable thin slice bodies such as duplexer are applied suitable separators commonly used in the past such as material after the processing.
Also have; in the present invention; also can be on each layers such as polariscope, transparent protective film, optical layers or bonding coat that form above-mentioned optical element; utilize the modes such as mode of for example using salicylate based compound or benzo phenol (benzophenol) based compound, benzotriazole based compound or ultraviolet light absorbers such as cyanoacrylate based compound, nickel coordination compound based compound to handle, make it to have ultraviolet absorption ability etc.
The optical element that hard-coated film of the present invention has been set can be preferred for formation of various devices such as liquid crystal indicator etc.Liquid crystal indicator can form according to method in the past.Promptly, in general, liquid crystal indicator can form by the component parts such as combination of liquid crystals unit and optical element aptly and the illuminator that adds as required and the driving circuit of packing into etc., in the present invention, except using optical element of the present invention, be not particularly limited, can form according to method in the past.For liquid crystal cells, also can use for example liquid crystal cells of any type such as TN type or STN type, π type.
The one or both sides that can be formed in liquid crystal cells have disposed the liquid crystal indicator of above-mentioned optical element, used the suitable liquid crystal indicators such as device of backlight or reflecting plate in illuminators.At this moment, optical element of the present invention can be arranged on the one or both sides of liquid crystal cells.When optical element was arranged on both sides, they both can be identical, also can be different.In addition, when forming liquid crystal indicator, can be on suitable position suitable parts such as for example diffuser plate of configuration more than 1 layer or 2 layers, antiglare layer, antireflection film, fender, prism array, lens arra thin slice, light diffusing sheet, backlight.
Then, Organnic electroluminescent device (organic EL display) is described.Usually, organic EL display is to stack gradually transparency electrode, organic luminous layer and metal electrode and form luminophor (organic electroluminescent body) on transparency carrier.Here, organic luminous layer is the duplexer of various organic films, and known have: for example duplexer of the duplexer of hole injection layer that is made of triphenylamine derivant etc. and the luminescent layer that is made of fluorescence organic solids such as anthracenes or this kind luminescent layer and the electron injecting layer that is made of perylene derivant etc. or the various combinations such as duplexer of these hole injection layers, luminescent layer and electron injecting layer.
Organic EL display carries out luminous according to following principle, promptly, by on transparency electrode and metal electrode, applying voltage, injected hole and electronics in organic luminous layer, the energy excitation fluorescent material that produces by the compound of these holes and electronics, when the fluorescent material that is excited is got back to ground state, will radiate bright dipping.Middle multiple mechanism is identical with general diode, also can infer thus, and electric current and luminous intensity demonstrate with respect to impressed voltage and follow the stronger non-linear of rectification.
In organic EL display, in order to take out the light that produces in the organic luminous layer, at least one side's electrode must be transparent, usually will be by tin indium oxide (ITO). the transparency electrode that waits transparent conductive body to make is used as anode.On the other hand, improve luminescence efficiency in order to carry out electronics to inject easily, it is crucial using the less material of work function on negative electrode, uses metal electrodes such as Mg-Ag, Al-Li usually.
In having the organic EL display of this formation, organic luminous layer is that film as thin as a wafer about 10nm constitutes by thickness.Therefore, organic luminous layer is also the same with transparency electrode, and light is almost completely seen through.Consequently, when not luminous from the incident of transparency carrier surface and see through transparency electrode and organic luminous layer and can be once more penetrating to the face side of transparency carrier at the light of metal electrode reflection, therefore, when carrying out identification from the outside, the display surface of organic El device is as minute surface.
In the organic EL display that comprises organic electroluminescent body as described below, can polaroid be set in the face side of transparency electrode, simultaneously between these transparency electrodes and polaroid, polarizer is set, above-mentioned organic electroluminescent body is to be provided with transparency electrode by applying the face side that voltage carries out luminous organic luminous layer, is provided with metal electrode and forms in the rear side of organic luminous layer simultaneously.
Become the effect of polarized light because polarizer and polaroid have to make from outside incident and at the light of metal electrode reflection, therefore, have the effect that can't pick out the minute surface of metal electrode by this polarized light effect from the outside.Particularly, when adopting 1/4 wavelength plate to constitute polarizer and the angle of the polarization direction of polaroid and polarizer is adjusted into π/4, can cover the minute surface of metal electrode fully.
That is, the exterior light that is incident to this organic EL display has only the rectilinearly polarized light composition because of the existence of polaroid and sees through.This rectilinearly polarized light generally can be converted to elliptically polarized light by polarizer, and when polarizer be the angle of the polarization direction of 1/4 wavelength plate and polaroid and polarizer when being π/4, become circularly polarized light.
This circularly polarized light sees through transparency carrier, transparency electrode, organic film, reflects on metal electrode, sees through organic film, transparency electrode, transparency carrier afterwards once more, converts rectilinearly polarized light once more to by polarizer.Then, because this rectilinearly polarized light is vertical with the polarization direction of polaroid, so can't see through polaroid.Its result can be covered the minute surface of metal electrode fully.
