Description
Optoelektronischer Zeichengenerator Die Erfindung betrifft einen optoelektronischen Zeichen-@ generator, bestehend aus wenigstens zwei Elektroden auf wenigstens einem Träger und einem zwischen den Elektroden angeordneten fltesigen Kristall und ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass hinter dem Träger eine wenigstens teilweise reflektierende, fluoreszierende Schicht angeordnet ist. Optoelectronic Character Generator The invention relates to a optoelectronic character @ generator, consisting of at least two electrodes on at least one support and a fltesigen arranged between the electrodes Crystal and is characterized in that behind the carrier at least one partially reflective, fluorescent layer is arranged.
Flässige Kristalle sind bekannt und in der Literatur beschrieben, beispielsweise in "Electro-Technology", Januar 1970, Seiten 41 ff; "Electronic Design, 19, September 13, 1971, Vol. 18, Seiten 76 ff.Liquid crystals are known and described in the literature, for example in "Electro-Technology", January 1970, pages 41 ff; "Electronic Design, 19, September 13, 1971, Vol. 18, pages 76 ff.
Zeichengeneratoren, die einen fltasigen Kristall anwenden-sind beschrieben in "Applied Physics Letters" Vol. 19, Nummer 7, 1. Oktober 1971, ferner in "Applied Optics", Vol. 9, Nummer 6, Juni 1970, Seiten 1323 ff., und in "IEEE Transactions on electronic devices", Vol. ED 18, Nummer 9, September 1971.Character generators using a liquid crystal are described in "Applied Physics Letters" Vol. 19, Number 7, October 1, 1971, also in "Applied Optics ", Vol. 9, Number 6, June 1970, pages 1323 ff., And in" IEEE Transactions on electronic devices ", Vol. ED 18, number 9, September 1971.
Zeichengeneratoren, die einen fldssigen Kristall verwendens haben den Nachteil, dass sie in Dunkelheit nicht ablesbar sind, weil sie ihrer Natur nach nicht Licht erzeugen sondern solches reflektieren Während einerseits diese Tatsache von Vorteil ist, vorzugsweise deswegen, weil ein nur geringer Stromverbrauch auftritt, ist die mangelnde Ablesbarkeit in Dunkelheit ein schwerwiegender Nachteil.Character generators that use a liquid crystal the disadvantage that they cannot be read in the dark because they are by their nature not producing light but reflecting it While on the one hand this fact is advantageous, preferably because there is only a low power consumption, the lack of readability in the dark is a serious disadvantage.
Die Erfindung stellt sich die Aufgabe diesen Nachteil zu beheben.The object of the invention is to remedy this disadvantage.
Erfindungsgemäss geschieht das dadurch, dass hinter der transparenten Trägerplatte eine fluoreszierende, wenigstens teilweise reflektierende Schicht angeordnet wird. Nach der Erfindung kommt es nicht darauf an, ob es sich um eine fluoreszierende, luminiszente oder phosphoreszierende Schicht handelt, vielmehr sollen alle solche Schichten in den Rahmen der Erfindung fallen, die in irgendeiner Form Strahlung einer im sichtbaren Bereich liegenden Wellenlänge aussenden. Nach der Erfindung ist es auch gleichgültig, ob die Schicht eine Festkörperschicht oder eine Fltæsigkeit ist und ob die sichtbare Strahlung in der Schicht erzeugt wird oder die Schicht Strahlung einer anderen Wellenlänge in Strahlung einer sichtbaren Wellenlänge umwandelt.According to the invention, this is done by the fact that behind the transparent Carrier plate arranged a fluorescent, at least partially reflective layer will. According to the invention, it does not matter whether it is a fluorescent, luminescent or phosphorescent layer, rather all such Layers fall within the scope of the invention that are in any form radiation emit a wavelength lying in the visible range. According to the invention it is also irrelevant whether the layer is a solid layer or a liquid and whether the visible radiation is generated in the layer or the layer Converts radiation of a different wavelength into radiation of a visible wavelength.
In einer Abwandlung der Erfindung ist der Träger ait dem fltssigen i-) Kristall zwischen zwei gekreuzt angeordneten Polarisatoren angeordnet und die fluoreszierende Schicht befindet sich hinter dem zweiten Polarisationsfilter. In diesem Fslle ist der Kontrast besonders gross. Geeignet für eine solche Anordnung ist jedes handelsübliche fluoreszierende oder phosphoreszierende oder dergleichen Material, auch elektroluminiszierende Materialien sind geeignet.In a modification of the invention, the carrier is a liquid i-) crystal arranged between two crossed polarizers and the fluorescent layer is behind the second polarization filter. In In this case the contrast is particularly great. Suitable for such an arrangement is any commercially available fluorescent or phosphorescent or the like Material, including electroluminescent materials, are suitable.
