Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application may be applied to various electronic devices, for example, portable or mobile computing devices such as smart phones, notebook computers, tablet computers, and game devices, and other electronic devices such as electronic databases, automobiles, and Automated Teller Machines (ATMs), but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application may be used for optical image acquisition under a screen, for example, biological feature recognition under a screen or a hidden camera function under a screen, where the biological feature recognition may be other biological feature recognition besides fingerprint recognition, for example, living body recognition, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto. In order to facilitate understanding of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the below first describes an off-screen biometric identification technology.

Fig. 1 and fig. 2 are schematic diagrams of an electronic device 10 to which the off-screen biometric technology can be applied, where fig. 1 is a schematic front view of the electronic device 10, and fig. 2 is a schematic partial sectional view of the electronic device 10 shown in fig. 1 along a '-a'.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the electronic device 10 includes a display screen 120 and a biometric recognition device 130, wherein the biometric recognition device 130 is disposed in a local area below the display screen 120, for example, below a middle area of the display screen. The biometric device 130 may be embodied as an optical biometric module, such as an optical fingerprint module, which is mainly used for collecting biometric information (such as fingerprint image information) of a user. In the embodiment of the present application, the biometric apparatus 130 may be disposed at least in a local area below the display screen 120, so that the biometric acquisition area (or sensing area) 103 of the biometric apparatus 130 is at least partially located in the display area of the display screen 120.

As an example, the biometric device 130 may include an optical image capturing system, which may include a plurality of optical image capturing units, and more particularly, the optical image capturing system of the biometric device 130 may include an optical image sensor having an optical sensing array 133, such as a CMOS image sensor, a CCD image sensor; the optical sensing array includes a plurality of optical sensing units 131, one optical sensing unit 131 corresponds to one of the optical image capturing units of the optical image capturing system, the optical sensing unit may specifically include a photodetector or a photosensor, optionally, the photodetector may include a PN junction photodiode, a photogate, an avalanche photodiode, a phototransistor, a photoconductive detector, and the like, and the area of the optical sensing array corresponds to the biometric feature capturing area 103 of the biometric feature recognition device 130. As shown in fig. 1, the biometric characteristic collection area 103 is located in the display area of the display screen 120, so that when the user needs to unlock or otherwise verify the electronic device 10, the user only needs to press a finger on the biometric characteristic collection area 103 located on the display screen 120, and thus the biometric input operation can be implemented. Since the biometric feature collection and detection can be implemented inside the display area of the display screen 120, the electronic device 10 with the above structure does not need to reserve a special space on the front surface thereof to set a fingerprint key (such as a Home key), and thus a full-screen scheme can be adopted. Thus, the display area of the display screen 120 may extend substantially across the entire front face of the electronic device 10.

As an alternative implementation, as shown in fig. 2, the biometric device 130 includes a light detection portion 134 and an optical component 132, the light detection portion 134 includes an optical sensing array, and an amplifying circuit, a reading circuit and other auxiliary circuits electrically connected to the optical sensing array, and can be fabricated on a chip (Die) by a semiconductor process, such as an optical imaging chip or an optical image sensor, where the sensing array is specifically a Photo Detector (PD) array, which includes a plurality of photodetectors distributed in an array; the optical assembly 132 may be disposed above the sensing array of the light detecting portion 134, and may specifically include a Filter layer (Filter) for filtering out ambient light penetrating through the finger, a light guiding layer or a light path guiding structure for guiding the reflected light reflected from the surface of the finger to the sensing array for optical detection, and other optical elements.

Taking fingerprint collection as an example, the biometric feature recognition device 130 is an optical fingerprint device 130, and the biometric feature collection area 103 is a fingerprint detection area 103, as an alternative embodiment, the display 120 may adopt a display screen with a self-Light Emitting display unit, such as an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display screen or a Micro-LED (Micro-LED) display screen. Taking an OLED display screen as an example, the optical fingerprint device 130 may use the display unit (i.e., OLED light source) of the OLED display screen 120 located in the fingerprint detection area 103 as an excitation light source for optical fingerprint detection. When the finger 140 is pressed against the fingerprint detection area 103, the display 120 emits a beam of light 111 toward the target finger 140 above the fingerprint detection area 103, and the light 111 is reflected on the surface of the finger 140 to form reflected light or scattered light by the inside of the finger 140 to form scattered light. Since ridges (ridges) and valleys (vally) of the fingerprint have different light reflection capabilities, reflected light 151 from the ridges and emitted light 152 from the valleys have different light intensities, and the reflected light is received by the sensor array 133 in the light detection portion 134 and converted into corresponding electric signals, i.e., fingerprint detection signals, after passing through the optical assembly 132; fingerprint image data can be obtained based on the fingerprint detection signal, and fingerprint matching verification can be further performed, so that an optical fingerprint identification function is realized in the electronic device 10.

In other embodiments, the optical fingerprint device 130 may also use an internal light source or an external light source to provide an optical signal for fingerprint detection. In this case, the optical fingerprint device 130 may be adapted for use with a non-self-emissive display such as a liquid crystal display or other passively emissive display. Taking an application to a liquid crystal display having a backlight module and a liquid crystal panel as an example, to support the underscreen fingerprint detection of the liquid crystal display, the optical fingerprint system of the electronic device 10 may further include an excitation light source for optical fingerprint detection, where the excitation light source may specifically be an infrared light source or a light source of non-visible light with a specific wavelength, and may be disposed below the backlight module of the liquid crystal display or in an edge area below a protective cover of the electronic device 10, and the optical fingerprint device 130 may be disposed below the edge area of the liquid crystal panel or the protective cover and guided through a light path so that the fingerprint detection light may reach the light detection portion 134; alternatively, the optical fingerprint device 130 may be disposed below the backlight module, and the backlight module may be perforated or otherwise optically designed to allow the fingerprint detection light to pass through the liquid crystal panel and the backlight module and reach the light detection portion 134 by a diffusion sheet, a brightness enhancement sheet, a reflection sheet, and other film layers. In other alternative implementations, the display screen 120 may also be a non-self-luminous display screen, such as a liquid crystal display screen that uses a backlight; in this case, the optical detection device 130 cannot use the display unit of the display screen 120 as an excitation light source, so that it is necessary to integrate the excitation light source inside the optical detection device 130 or arrange the excitation light source outside the optical detection device 130 to realize optical fingerprint detection, and when the optical fingerprint device 130 uses an internal light source or an external light source to provide an optical signal for fingerprint detection, the detection principle is the same as that described above.

It should be appreciated that in particular implementations, the electronic device 10 further includes a transparent protective cover plate, which may be a glass cover plate or a sapphire cover plate, positioned over the display screen 120 and covering the front surface of the electronic device 10. Because, in the present embodiment, the pressing of the finger on the display screen 120 actually means pressing on the cover plate above the display screen 120 or the surface of the protective layer covering the cover plate.

Due to factors such as space and imaging requirements, the design requirements for the optical image acquisition system in the biological feature recognition module are increasing. The embodiment of the application provides an optical image acquisition scheme, which can be used for biological feature recognition and other applications requiring optical image acquisition.

Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of an optical image acquisition unit 20 according to an embodiment of the present application.

The optical image capturing unit 20 in fig. 3 may constitute one pixel unit of the optical image capturing system, i.e. one pixel for forming a captured image is formed by the optical signal detected by the optical image capturing unit 20.

As shown in fig. 3, the optical image pickup unit 20 may include:

an optical converging device 21;

an aperture 22 arranged in a back focal plane 212 of the optical converging device, wherein the aperture 22 is provided with a window 220;

a photoelectric sensing unit 23 disposed below the diaphragm 22;

wherein the optical converging device 21 is configured to converge the optical signal 28 with a specific incident angle range to the window 220, and the optical signal is transmitted to the photo sensor unit 23 via the window 220.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the optical converging device 21 may be configured as various structures or devices having an optical converging function, such as a convex lens, a fresnel lens, etc., and in a specific embodiment, the optical converging device 21 may be a plano-convex lens.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the optical diaphragm 22 may be configured as various structures or devices that limit optical signals, for example, the optical diaphragm 22 may be configured as a dark color light absorption type coating, for example, a coating formed by a black glue material, or the optical diaphragm 22 may also be configured as a light reflection coating, for example, a metal layer, etc.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the present application, the optical signal detected by the photo sensor unit 23 may be used to form a pixel of the captured image, where the pixel represents a characteristic value of a corresponding area above the optical image capturing unit 20. That is, the signal collected by one optical image pickup unit 20 forms one pixel of an image, so that one image can be obtained by the signals collected by a plurality of optical image pickup units 20.

In the embodiment of the present application, the optical converging device 21 may converge the optical signal within a specific incident angle range to the window 220, and further, the optical signal is transmitted to the photo sensing unit 23 via the window 220. That is, the photo-sensing unit can only receive the incident light signal within the specific incident angle range.

Optionally, the focal point of the optical converging device 21 is located within the window 220.

That is, the window 220 is used for the optical signal condensed by the optical condensing device.

As shown in FIG. 3, the back focus (or image side focus) F of the optical converging device 21_b0Is the intersection point of the main optical axis 211 and the back focal plane (or image space focal plane) 212 of the optical convergence device 21, when a parallel light beam 28 is incident at an angle θ with the main optical axis, the parallel light beam 28 converges to the focal point F on the back focal plane 212_b1The focus point F_b1Is located in the window 220. Due to the optical center O passing through the optical converging device 21_bIs not changed, the focus point F is formed_b1And the back focus F_b0A distance F between_b0F_b1The following relationship may be associated with the incident angle θ:

F_b0F_b1＝OF_b0tan θ equation (1)

OF therein_b0Is a light center O_bAnd the back focus F_b0The back focal length of the optical converging device 21.

Alternatively, if the optical converging device is a lens, the radius of curvature of the lens is r, and the refractive index of the lens material is n, the formula (1) can be converted into:

since the window has a certain size, the incident angle range of the optical signal that can be condensed by the optical condensing device is actually θ ± Δ θ, wherein the Δ θ is determined according to the size of the window. Assuming that the width of the window is D, Δ θ may be:

thus, in the case of the determination of the parameters of the lens, and the position of the window in the diaphragm, the range of angles of incidence that can pass through the window can be determined according to equations (2) and (3). Conversely, by setting the position of the window in the diaphragm, the window can be controlled to pass only optical signals within a certain range of angles of incidence.

Alternatively, the window 230 is cylindrical, i.e. a small hole may be provided in the diaphragm 22. Alternatively, the window 220 may have a diameter greater than a certain threshold, such as 100nm, to transmit the light required for imaging. And the diameter of the window 321 is also less than a certain threshold to ensure that the diaphragm 22 blocks unwanted light. That is, the parameter setting of the window 220 is such that the optical signal required for imaging by the optical image capturing unit 20 is maximally transmitted to the photo-sensing unit 23, while the unnecessary light is maximally blocked.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, the parameters of the window 220 may be set to maximize the transmission of the light signal incident at an angle above the optical image capturing unit 20 to the photo sensor unit 23, and maximize the blocking of other light signals.

For example, the center of the window 220 may not be disposed directly opposite to the optical axis 211 of the optical converging device 21, i.e., the focusing point F_b1And the back focus F_b0Are different points.

Alternatively, in other embodiments, the parameters of the window 321 may be set to maximize the transmission of the optical signal incident vertically downward above the optical image capturing unit 300 to the photosensor 330, and maximize the blocking of other optical signals.

For example, the center of the window 220 may be disposed opposite to the optical axis 211 of the optical converging device 21, i.e., the focusing point F_b1And the back focus F_b0May be the same point.

In summary, by the arrangement of the optical converging device 21, the diaphragm 22, the window 220 and the photo sensing unit 23, the light signal from above the optical converging device 21 is converged to the window 220 and transmitted to the photo sensing unit 23 through the window 220. In this way, the photo-sensing unit 23 can detect the light signal from the corresponding region above the optical converging device 21, and can further acquire the pixel value according to the light intensity of the light signal. Compared with an imaging system adopting a small-hole imaging principle, the imaging system does not need to consider the arrangement of object distance and the like, so that the imaging system can be directly arranged below a display screen, the distance required by imaging does not need to be reserved, and the thickness of a product can be reduced.

Also, in the present embodiment, only the optical signal of a specific incident angle range is condensed into the window using the optical condensing device 21. Compared with other fingerprint identification schemes, the optical convergence device 21 can reduce interference of incident light at other angles to the maximum extent, and can improve imaging quality.

In the embodiment of the present application, the optical image capturing system may include an array of a plurality of optical image capturing units, in this case, if the optical converging device is a microlens, the optical image capturing system may include a microlens array, a diaphragm array, and a photosensor (or image sensor) including a plurality of photoelectric sensing units.
