As shown in fig. 6 to 7, the equivalent negative refractive index optical element may employ a flat lens 1, the flat lens 1 including two transparent substrates 8, and a first optical waveguide array 6 and a second optical waveguide array 7 interposed between the two transparent substrates 8. The first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are closely attached to each other on the same plane and are orthogonally arranged. Preferably, the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are the same thickness, which facilitates design and production. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, the flat lens includes a first transparent substrate 8, a first optical waveguide array 6, a second optical waveguide array 7, and a second transparent substrate 8 in this order from the display 2 side to the floating real image 4 side.
Wherein the first transparent substrate 8 and the second transparent substrate 8 each have two optical surfaces, and the transparent substrate 8 has a transmittance of 90% to 100% for light having a wavelength of 390nm to 760 nm. The material of the transparent substrate 8 may be at least one of glass, plastic, polymer, and acrylic for protecting the optical waveguide array and filtering out excessive light. Note that, if the strength after the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are bonded to each other in an orthogonal manner is sufficient, or if the thickness of the mounting environment is limited, only one transparent substrate 8 may be disposed, or no transparent substrate 8 may be disposed.
As shown in fig. 7, the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are composed of a plurality of reflection units 9 having a rectangular cross section, and the lengths of the reflection units 9 are limited by the peripheral dimensions of the optical waveguide arrays so as to be different in length. The extending direction of the reflecting unit 9 in the first optical waveguide array 6 is X, the extending direction of the reflecting unit 9 in the second optical waveguide array 7 is Y, and the Z direction is the thickness direction of the optical waveguide array. The extending directions (optical waveguide array directions) of the reflecting units 9 in the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are perpendicular to each other, namely, the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are orthogonally arranged when viewed from the Z direction (thickness direction), so that two light beams in the orthogonal directions are converged at one point, and the object image planes (the light source side and the imaging side) are ensured to be symmetrical relative to a flat lens, an equivalent negative refraction phenomenon is generated, and aerial imaging is realized.
As shown in fig. 8, the first optical waveguide array 6 or the second optical waveguide array 7 is composed of a plurality of parallel arranged reflection units 9 arranged obliquely with a 45 ° deflection from the user's angle of view. Specifically, the first optical waveguide array 6 may be composed of reflection units 9 arranged side by side at 45 ° in the lower left direction and having a rectangular cross section, the second optical waveguide array 7 may be composed of reflection units 9 arranged side by side at 45 ° in the lower right direction and having a rectangular cross section, and the arrangement directions of the reflection units 9 in the two optical waveguide arrays may be interchanged. For example, the extending direction of the reflection unit 9 in the first optical waveguide array 6 is Y, the extending direction of the reflection unit 9 in the second optical waveguide array 7 is X, the Z direction is the thickness direction of the optical waveguide array, and the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are orthogonally arranged when viewed from the Z direction (thickness direction), so that two light beams in the orthogonal direction converge at one point, and the object image planes (light source side and image forming side) are ensured to be symmetrical with respect to the flat lens, thereby generating an equivalent negative refraction phenomenon and realizing aerial imaging. The optical waveguide material has an optical refractive index n1, in some embodiments, n1>1.4, for example, n1 is 1.5, 1.8, 2.0, and the like.
As shown in fig. 9, for the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7, two interfaces exist between each reflection unit 9 and its adjacent reflection unit 9, and the interfaces are bonded by an adhesive 11 having a good light transmittance. Preferably, the adhesive 11 may be selected from a photosensitive adhesive or a thermosetting adhesive, and the thickness of the adhesive 13 is T1, and T1>0.001mm is satisfied, for example, T1 ═ 0.002mm or T1 ═ 0.003mm or T1 ═ 0.0015mm, and the specific thickness may be set according to specific needs. And adhesives 11 are respectively arranged between the adjacent optical waveguide arrays in the flat lens 1 and between the optical waveguide arrays and the transparent substrate 8, so that the firmness is improved.
In some embodiments, the reflection unit 9 may have a rectangular cross section, and the reflection film 10 is provided along one side or both sides of the arrangement direction of the reflection unit 9. Specifically, in the arrangement direction of the optical waveguide array, two sides of each reflection unit 9 are plated with a reflection film 10, and the material of the reflection film 10 may be a metal material such as aluminum, silver, or other non-metal compound material that realizes total reflection. The reflecting film 10 is used for preventing light rays from entering an adjacent optical waveguide array due to no total reflection to form stray light to influence imaging. Alternatively, each reflection element 9 may be formed by adding a dielectric film to the reflection film 10, and the dielectric film may improve the light reflectance.
The cross section width a and the cross section length b of the single reflection unit 9 satisfy 0.1mm ≤ a ≤ 5mm, 0.1mm ≤ b ≤ 5mm, and further satisfy 0.1mm ≤ a ≤ 2mm, and 0.1mm ≤ b ≤ 2mm for better imaging effect. For example, a is 0.2mm, b is 0.2 mm; or a is 0.5mm and b is 0.5 mm. When a large screen is displayed, the requirement of large size can be realized by splicing a plurality of optical waveguide arrays. The overall shape of the optical waveguide array is set according to the application scene, in this embodiment, the two groups of optical waveguide arrays are integrally rectangular, the two diagonal reflection units 9 are triangular, and the middle reflection unit 9 is a trapezoidal structure. The lengths of the single reflection units 9 are different, the reflection unit 9 positioned on the diagonal of the rectangle has the longest length, and the reflection units 9 at the two ends have the shortest length. In addition, the flat lens 1 may further include an anti-reflection component and a viewing angle control component, and the anti-reflection component may improve the overall transmittance of the flat lens and improve the definition and brightness of the floating real image 4. The visual angle control component can be used for eliminating the afterimage of the floating real image 4, reducing the vertigo of an observer, preventing the observer from peeping into the device from other angles, and improving the overall attractiveness of the device. The anti-reflection component and the viewing angle control component may be combined, or may be separately disposed between the transparent substrate 8 and the waveguide array, between two waveguide arrays, or on the outer layer of the transparent substrate 8.
The imaging principle of the flat lens is explained below with reference to fig. 10 to 12, and the details are as follows.
On the micrometer scale, a mutually orthogonal double-layer waveguide array structure is used for orthogonal decomposition of arbitrary optical signals. The original signal is projected on the first optical waveguide array 6, a rectangular coordinate system is established by taking the projection point of the original signal as the origin and taking the projection point of the original signal as the X axis perpendicular to the first optical waveguide array 6, and the original signal is decomposed into two paths of mutually orthogonal signals of a signal X positioned on the X axis and a signal Y positioned on the Y axis in the rectangular coordinate system. When the signal X passes through the first optical waveguide array 6, the signal X is totally reflected on the surface of the reflective film 10 at a reflection angle equal to the incident angle; at this time, the signal Y remains parallel to the first optical waveguide array 6, and after passing through the first optical waveguide array 6, the signal Y is totally reflected on the surface of the reflective film 10 at the same reflection angle as the incident angle on the surface of the second optical waveguide array 7, and the reflected optical signal composed of the reflected signal Y and the signal X is mirror-symmetric to the original optical signal. Therefore, the light rays in any direction can realize mirror symmetry through the flat lens 1, the divergent light of any light source can be converged into a floating real image again at a symmetrical position through the flat lens 1, the imaging distance of the floating real image is the same as the distance from the flat lens 1 to an image source, namely a display 2, the floating real image is imaged at equal distance, and the floating real image is positioned in the air without a specific carrier but directly presents the real image in the air. Therefore, the image in the space seen by the user is the image emitted from the display 2.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the light emitted from the light source of the display 2 passes through the flat lens 1, the above process occurs on the flat lens 1. Specifically, as shown in fig. 10, the incident angles of the light rays on the first optical waveguide arrays 6 are α, respectively1、α2And alpha3The reflection angle of the light on the first optical waveguide array 6 is beta1、β2And beta3In which α is1＝β1，α2＝β2，α3＝β3After being reflected by the first optical waveguide array 6, the incident angles on the second optical waveguide array 7 are respectively gamma1、γ2And gamma3The reflection angles at the second optical waveguide arrays 7 are respectively δ1、δ2And delta3Wherein γ is1＝δ1，γ2＝δ2，γ3＝δ3。
Further, the incident angles after the convergent imaging are respectively alpha1，α2，α3……αnWhen the distance between the light source of the display 2 and the flat lens is L, the distance between the imaging position of the floating real image and the flat lens is also L, and the viewing angle ∈ of the floating real image is 2 times max (α).
It can be understood that if the size of the optical waveguide array is small, the image can be seen only at a certain distance from the imaging side of the optical waveguide array; if the size of the optical waveguide array is increased, a larger imaging distance can be realized, and thus the visual field rate is increased.
Preferably, the included angle between the flat lens 1 and the display 2 is set to be in the range of 45 ° ± 5 °, so that the size of the flat lens 1 can be effectively utilized, the imaging quality is improved, and the influence of afterimages is reduced. Furthermore, if there is another demand for the imaging position, another angle may be selected at the expense of the partial imaging quality, and the flat lens 1 is preferably sized to display the screen of the floating real image 4 presented by the entire display 2. However, if only a part of the display 2 needs to be seen in actual use, the size and position of the flat lens 1 can be freely adjusted according to the actual display, which is not limited in this respect.
In addition, the principle of imaging with the slab lens 1 adopting the double-layer optical waveguide array structure is mainly described above, but in other embodiments, if the plurality of cubic columnar reflection units 9 with the reflection films 12 are provided on all four peripheral surfaces, and the plurality of cubic columnar reflection units 9 are arranged in an array in the X and Y directions in the one-layer optical waveguide array structure, that is, the two layers of optical waveguide arrays are combined into one layer, the imaging principle of the slab lens 1 may also be the same as that of the double-layer optical waveguide array structure.
In the embodiment, the thicknesses of the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 are the same, so that the complexity of the structures of the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 can be simplified, the manufacturing difficulty of the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 can be reduced, the production efficiency of the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 can be improved, and the production cost of the first optical waveguide array 6 and the second optical waveguide array 7 can be reduced. It should be noted that the thickness is the same in a relative range, and is not absolutely the same, that is, for the purpose of improving the production efficiency, a certain thickness difference may exist between the optical waveguide arrays without affecting the aerial imaging quality.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the outer wall of the panel 220 has a mounting groove thereon, and the optical display module 100 is disposed in the mounting groove. It can be understood that, by disposing the optical display module 100 in the mounting groove, the optical display module 100 no longer protrudes from the surface of the panel 220, which is more visually attractive.

The following describes a dishwasher 1000 with aerial imaging function according to a second embodiment of the present invention with reference to fig. 13. The remaining configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment except for the difference in the structure of the optical display module 100, and thus, the repeated description of the same configuration with the same reference numerals will be omitted.
The structure of the optical display module 100 is characterized in that a total reflection mirror 12 is added on the side of the flat lens 1 where the display 2 is located. Light emitted by the display 2 is reflected by the total reflection mirror 12, enters the flat lens 1, and finally converges on the other side of the flat lens 1, so that a floating real image 4 is formed. The function and structure of the detection module 3 and the control module 5 are the same as those of the first embodiment.
It can be seen that, in this embodiment, after the light of the display 2 is reflected by the total reflection mirror 12, a virtual image 13 that is as large as the display 2 and is plane-symmetric with respect to the total reflection mirror 12 is equivalently formed on the other side of the total reflection mirror 12, and the floating real image 4 is actually mirror-symmetric with respect to the flat lens 1 with the virtual image 13. Preferably, the included angle between the flat lens 1 and the virtual image 13 is set to be in the range of 45 ° ± 5 °, so that the size of the flat lens 1 can be more fully utilized, and simultaneously, better imaging quality and smaller afterimage influence are obtained. But other angles may be chosen at the expense of partial imaging quality if there are other requirements on the imaging position. It is also preferable that the size of the flat lens 1 and the total reflection mirror 12 is set so that the user can see the picture of the aerial image 4 presented by the entire display 2 at a glance, but if it is necessary to see only a part of the content of the display 2 in actual use, the size and position of the flat lens 1 can be freely adjusted according to the actual display picture.
The effect of this embodiment is that the orientation of the display screen in the display 2 can be changed, and the display 2 can be disposed closer to the flat lens 1, and under the condition that the distance between the floating real image 4 and the flat lens 1 is not changed, the overall thickness of the optical display module 100 is significantly reduced, so as to be better integrated into the dishwasher 1000 with aerial imaging function.
It is understood that a plurality of total reflection mirrors 12 (not shown) may be disposed in the optical display module 100, and the light of the display 2 is reflected therein for a plurality of times to form a virtual image farther away from the flat lens 1, so as to further reduce the thickness of the optical display module 100.
A dishwasher 1000 having an aerial imaging function according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 14. The remaining configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment except for the difference in the structure of the optical display module 100, and thus, the repeated description of the same configuration with the same reference numerals will be omitted.
The optical display module 100 is characterized in that a retro-reflector 14 is used to replace the flat lens 1, and a beam splitter 15 is added to reconverge the light from the display 2 in the air to present a floating real image 4.
Specifically, the imaging principle of the present embodiment is as follows:
light emitted from the display 2 is first reflected by the beam splitter 15 to the surface of the retro-reflector 14, and the beam splitter 15 is a beam splitter that is semi-transparent to visible light, i.e., has characteristics of 50% transmittance and 50% reflectance with respect to visible light. When this portion of the light is incident on the surface of the retro-reflector 14, it is reflected again by the microstructures inside the retro-reflector 14 and the reflected light is returned from a direction opposite to that of the incident light, at which time the reflected light is transmitted through the beam splitter 15, thereby forming a floating real image 4 in the air in a position where the display 2 is plane-symmetric with respect to the beam splitter 15.
The beam splitter 15 is used to split a light beam into two light beams, one light beam is transmitted and the other light beam is reflected, and is made of a metal film or a dielectric film, and the ratio of reflection to transmission is about 1:1 in the embodiment, which can be classified into a polarized type and a non-polarized type in principle.
The retro-reflector 14 has a retro-reflection effect on its surface, which reflects incident light from a direction close to the opposite direction of its incident direction, and is covered with micro glass beads or micro prism structures, which refracts and reflects incident light through internal microstructures, so that light exits in the opposite direction of the incident direction. Since the structure of the retro-reflector 14 is relatively conventional, it will not be described herein in more detail.
Furthermore, according to some embodiments of the present invention, 1/4 wave plate 16 may be disposed on the surface of the retro-reflector 14, if the light emitted from the display 2 is linearly polarized, reflected by the polarizing beam splitter 15, and then enters the retro-reflector 14 through 1/4 wave plate 16, the reflected light returns from the opposite direction close to the incident light and then passes through 1/4 wave plate 16 again, and the polarization plane of the linearly polarized light emitted from the display 2 is rotated by 90 degrees, so that the light can be emitted from the polarizing beam splitter 15 and converged into the floating image 4 in the air. The method can greatly improve the energy utilization rate of the light of the display 2 and reduce the light intensity loss, thereby improving the brightness of the floating real image 4. It will be appreciated that if the display 2 is sufficiently bright, or if the light emitted by the display 2 is not linearly polarized, a non-polarizing beam splitter 15 may be used without 1/4 wave plate 16.
