Wherein the formation of the three-dimensional image by the first lens array holographic optical element 10 is realized according to the holographic display principle. The holographic display principle and the principle of the first lens array holographic optical element to realize three-dimensional display will be briefly described below. The holographic display process records specific light waves emitted by an object in the form of interference fringes, so that all information of the wavefront of the object light is stored on a recording medium, and the recorded interference fringe pattern is called a 'hologram'. When the coherent light wave is used to illuminate the 'hologram', the original light wave can be reproduced by the diffraction principle, so that the observer can observe a vivid three-dimensional image of the original object behind the 'hologram'. The holographic display process comprises two steps, wherein the first step is wave front recording, and the process uses the interference principle of light to record light waves emitted by an object in interference fringes to form holographic image information; the second step is wave front reappearing, namely the coherent light wave irradiates the interference fringe with the holographic image information, and forms light diffraction after the interference fringe, thereby being capable of reappearing the light wave of the original object by utilizing the holographic image information and forming a three-dimensional image which is lifelike to the original object.

It should be noted that, in order to ensure that the coherent light wave projected by the three-dimensional image projector 30 can be diffracted from the interference fringes on the first lens array holographic optical element 10, the projection angle and wavelength of the coherent light wave need to be set to satisfy the bragg diffraction condition of the interference fringes.

The cholesteric liquid crystal has obvious phase change effect and is characterized by bistable property between 5V and 17V, and the two states are a milky white state with focal conic texture and a nematic transparent state respectively. The bistable state exists in a non-zero electric field bistable state interval. In the initial state of the cholesteric liquid crystal layer 423, liquid crystal molecules are in a planar texture, the liquid crystal molecules are arranged in a spiral structure, and the polarization state of incident light is rotated by 90 ° from the liquid crystal molecules in the spiral structure.

The PNLC film reserves the advantages of high brightness, large area, no need of an orientation layer and the like of the PDLC film, compared with the PDLC film, the polymer network structure of the PNLC film greatly reduces the interface interaction between the polymer and the liquid crystal molecules, and the PNLC film can have lower driving voltage.
The working principle of the PNLC film is as follows: applying a voltage to the fifth transparent electrode layer 431 and the sixth transparent electrode layer 432, wherein liquid crystal molecules in the polymer network liquid crystal layer 433 are driven by an electric field, and directors of the liquid crystal domains 4331 are arranged into a single domain state along the electric field, and for incident light, the polymer network liquid crystal layer 433 is a medium with a uniform refractive index and thus is in a transparent state; after the voltages on the fifth transparent electrode layer 431 and the sixth transparent electrode layer 432 are removed, the liquid crystal molecules in the polymer network liquid crystal layer 433 exist in a multi-domain state in the network, the distribution of the director of each liquid crystal domain 4331 is random, and the incident light is scattered at the interface between the domains due to the discontinuous change of the refractive index, so that the polymer network liquid crystal layer 433 is in an opaque white state. Similarly, when the 3D display mode and the 2D display mode are switched, the polymer network liquid crystal film 43 can be driven to switch between the transparent state and the white state by applying or removing a voltage to or from the fifth transparent electrode layer 431 and the sixth transparent electrode layer 432 in the polymer network liquid crystal film 43, so that the 2D/3D switching display device can be switched between the 3D display mode and the 2D display mode.
Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of another 2D/3D switching module according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 5, optionally, in the 2D/3D switching display device, the 2D/3D switching module includes an electronic ink screen 44; the electronic ink screen 44 includes a seventh transparent electrode layer 441, an eighth transparent electrode layer 442, and a plurality of microcapsules 443 disposed between the seventh transparent electrode layer 441 and the eighth transparent electrode layer 442, the microcapsules 443 having positively and negatively charged white particles 4431 disposed therein, respectively; the seventh transparent electrode layer 441 is positioned between the eighth transparent electrode layer 442 and the first lens array hologram optical element (not shown in the drawings);
in the 3D display mode, the positively charged white particles and the negatively charged white particles 4431 in the microcapsule 443 are adsorbed on the eighth transparent electrode layer 442, and the electronic ink screen 44 is in a transparent state; in the 2D display mode, the positively charged white particles 443 or the negatively charged white particles 443 of the microcapsule 443 are adsorbed on the seventh transparent electrode layer 441, and the electronic ink screen 44 is in a white state.
Among them, the microcapsules 443 in the electronic ink screen 44 are a mixture of dye and pigment chips as they encapsulate the positively and negatively charged white particles 4431, and these fine particles can be charged. By adjusting the charges on the seventh transparent electrode layer 441 and the eighth transparent electrode layer 442, adsorption of the white particles 4431 having positive charges or negative charges can be achieved. Specifically, after electricity is applied to the seventh transparent electrode layer 441 and the eighth transparent electrode layer 442, the white particles 4431 may be orderly arranged and adsorbed on the electrodes, and the electronic ink screen 44 is in a white state. After removing the charges on the electrode layer, the white particles 4431 are randomly distributed, and the electronic ink screen 44 is in a transparent state. When the 3D display mode and the 2D display mode are switched, the seventh transparent electrode layer 441 and the eighth transparent electrode layer 442 in the electronic ink screen 44 are powered on, so that the transparent state and the white state of the electronic ink screen 44 can be switched, and the 2D/3D switching display device can be switched between the 3D display mode and the 2D display mode.
It should be noted that the state switching of the electronic ink screen 44 only needs to be powered up in the switching process, and power supply is not needed in the display state, and in addition, the electronic ink screen 44 can be prepared by printing the electronic ink on the back surface of the first lens array holographic optical element through a printing process, and can also be printed by using the existing screen printing process, so that the 2D/3D switching module of the electronic ink screen 44 is adopted, the power consumption of 2D/3D switching display is lower, and the preparation process is mature and simple.
Further, in order to improve the visible area of this 2D/3D switches display device, the embodiment of the utility model provides a 2D/3D switches display device is still provided. Fig. 6 is a schematic top view of a 2D/3D switching display device according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 6, in the 2D/3D switching display device, an orthographic projection of the 2D/3D switching module 40 on a plane where the first lens array hologram optical element 10 is located covers the first lens array hologram optical element 10.
The orthographic projection of the 2D/3D switching module 40 on the plane where the first lens array holographic optical element 10 is located is that the area beyond the first lens array holographic optical element 10 is a first area 100, and at least the first area 100 of the 2D/3D switching module is provided with a second lens array holographic optical element 45; the second lens array holographic optical element 45 is electrically connected to the holographic interference information recording unit 50.
In the 3D display mode, the holographic interference information recording unit 50 records holographic interference information on the second lens array holographic optical element 45, and the three-dimensional image projector 30 projects a light wave to the second lens array holographic optical element 45, the light wave and the holographic interference information on the second lens array holographic optical element 45 satisfying the bragg diffraction condition and forming a three-dimensional image.
Wherein the first region 100 is substantially the peripheral region of the 2D/3D switching module 40 beyond the first lens array holographic optical element 10, the three-dimensional image projector 30 can transmit the coherent light waves to the peripheral region of the 2D/3D switching module 40. In the 3D display mode, when the three-dimensional image formed by the first lens array hologram optical element 10 is viewed from the side of the three-dimensional image projector 30, there is a certain visible range beyond which the user cannot see the three-dimensional image. By providing the second lens array hologram optical element 45 in at least the peripheral region of the 2D/3D switching module 40, a three-dimensional image can be formed outside the original visible range using the same three-dimensional imaging principle as the first lens array hologram optical element 10. Moreover, by reasonably recording holographic image information related to the holographic image information on the first lens array holographic optical element 10 on the second lens array holographic optical element 45, splicing continuity of two three-dimensional images can be realized, namely, the three-dimensional image formed on the second lens array holographic optical element 45 is connected with the edge of the three-dimensional image formed on the first lens array holographic optical element 10, so that the area of the three-dimensional image of the 2D/3D switching display device is enlarged, and the visible range is increased.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 6, the 2D/3D switching module of the first area 100, which is orthographic projected on the plane where the first lens array holographic optical element 10 is located, is located on one side or both sides of the first lens array holographic optical element 10 in the transverse viewing angle direction. At this time, the second lens array hologram optical element 45 is located at the left rear side and/or the right rear side of the first lens array hologram optical element 10, so that the three-dimensional image formed by the first lens array hologram optical element 10 can be expanded from the lateral direction.
Further, on the basis of the above embodiment, the 2D/3D switching module of at least the first area may be gradually inclined or curved to a side away from the first lens array holographic optical element along a direction from the center to the edge area in the 2D/3D switching display device. Fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of another 2D/3D switching module according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 7, in the 2D/3D switching module, in a direction from the center toward the edge region, the 2D/3D switching module 40 of at least the first region 100 is gradually inclined toward a side away from the first lens array holographic optical element 10.
At this time, the second lens array hologram element 45 located at the periphery of the 2D/3D switching module 40 is substantially in a backward tilted state or a backward curved state, where the backward direction is directed away from the first lens array hologram element 10. Thus, the light rays incident on the second lens array hologram optical element 45 of the peripheral area form a three-dimensional image, which can be understood as being reflected on the surface of the second lens array hologram optical element 45 and incident into the eye of the observer, and in the case where the peripheral second lens array hologram optical element 45 is in a backward inclined or curved state, the reflection angle of the light rays thereof is increased, so that the visible range on the three-dimensional image projector 30 side is significantly increased.
Above embodiment provides the specific embodiment who relates to the structure that realizes 2D 3D switching display among the 2D 3D switching display device, on this basis, in order to guarantee under the 3D display mode, three-dimensional image's imaging quality, the embodiment of the utility model provides a 2D 3D switching display device is still provided. In the 2D/3D switching display device, the three-dimensional image projector comprises a laser, and a first lens, a second lens, a digital micromirror device, a third lens, a filter and a fourth lens which are sequentially positioned on an emergent light path of the laser; the image space focal plane of the first lens coincides with the object space focal plane of the second lens; the image space focal plane of the third lens coincides with the object space focal plane of the fourth lens, the filter is located on the image space focal plane of the third lens, a focal region formed on the image space focal plane by parallel rays emitted by the laser through the third lens is a second region, and the filter is provided with a shading region which at least partially coincides with the second region.
The structure and the operation of the three-dimensional image projector will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a three-dimensional image projector according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 8, specifically, the three-dimensional image projector includes a laser 31, and a first lens 321, a second lens 322, a dmd 33, a third lens 323, a filter 34, and a fourth lens 324 sequentially located on an exit optical path of the laser 31; the image-side focal plane of the first lens 321 coincides with the object-side focal plane of the second lens 322; the image focal plane of the third lens 323 coincides with the object focal plane of the fourth lens 324, the filter 34 is located on the image focal plane of the third lens 323, a focal region of the parallel light emitted from the laser 31 on the image focal plane through the third lens 323 is a second region (not shown), the filter 34 is provided with a light shielding region 340, and the light shielding region 340 at least partially coincides with the second region.
It is understood that in the three-dimensional image projector shown in the figure, the laser 31 is responsible for providing a light source, i.e. providing a parallel light beam, the first lens 321 and the second lens 322 can achieve collimation of the parallel light beam by matching the focal length and the focal plane, the digital micro-mirror device 33 is used for modulating the parallel light beam by the diffraction principle to form a holographic image, and meanwhile, the digital micro-mirror device 33 can construct a time division reconstruction system to perform high-speed time sequential reconstruction on the original image by time-sharing the original image and the holographic image corresponding to the time-shared original image. The method realizes the amplification of the reproduced image on the premise of ensuring the image quality. However, in the process of magnifying an image by the digital micro-mirror device 33, there may be light reflection caused by the structure of the digital micro-mirror device 33 itself, and thus there may be an image of the digital micro-mirror device 33 on a three-dimensional image, resulting in contamination of the projected three-dimensional image. The third lens 323 can be used to focus the parallel light beam from the dmd 33 by disposing the third lens 323, the filter 34 and the fourth lens 324 on the modulated light beam path of the dmd 33, and the filter 34 can block part of the light beam from the dmd 33 by disposing the light blocking region 340 thereon. Specifically, among the light beams from the dmd 33, the diffracted light beams modulated by the diffraction principle of the dmd 33 are not blocked by the light-blocking region 340, and therefore are transmitted by the light-blocking region 340, while the reflected light beams from the structure of the dmd 33 are blocked by the light-blocking region 340, and then are collimated and amplified by the fourth lens 324, the image formed on the projection screen only includes the three-dimensional image modulated by the dmd 33, and the image formed by the reflection from the structure of the dmd 33 is removed, so that the imaging of the three-dimensional image projector is optimized, and the imaging quality of the three-dimensional image is ensured.
Further, referring to fig. 8, since the diameter of the outgoing beam of the laser 31 is small, in order to ensure the imaging area on the projection screen, the outgoing beam needs to be expanded, and optionally, the focal length of the first lens 321 may be set smaller than that of the second lens 322; the focal lengths of the third lens 323 and the fourth lens 324 are equal. At this time, after the parallel light beams pass through the first lens 321 and the second lens 322, the collimating and beam expanding functions can be completed, and under the condition that the focal lengths of the third lens 323 and the fourth lens 324 are equal, the third lens 323 and the fourth lens 324 do not affect the beam width.
It should be noted that the foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles applied. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the particular embodiments described herein, but is capable of various obvious modifications, rearrangements, combinations and substitutions as will now become apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in greater detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include other equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention.
