Currently, the types of flat-panel displays include Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), Field Emission Display (FED), and Organic Electroluminesence Display (OLED). , Etc., among them, the liquid crystal display is the product that has already entered the practical stage. Among the many types of displays previously disclosed, reflective flat-panel displays (especially reflective liquid-crystal displays) do not use high-power consumption backlight modules or other light-emitting components. Instead, they reflect the external light source and cooperate with imaging control to achieve images. Display and the purpose of low power consumption are widely used in various portable products. As mentioned in the introduction, the reflective flat panel display itself does not have a light emitting module. Wang Xi achieves the function of image display by reflecting the external light in conjunction with the imaging control. Therefore, a reflective display must have a good reflectance to achieve The effect of clear development and how to improve its reflectivity is an important issue in the development of reflective flat panel displays at this stage. At present, the basic structure of a reflective flat display is a reflective liquid crystal display as an example. Its composition mainly includes a set of transparent substrates that are arranged up and down, and a liquid crystal layer enclosed by a sealing material is arranged between the two substrates. 3 Chinese paper standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 x 297 mm) is used for this paper size ~ '------ 550562 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (^) The bottom surface of the substrate and the top surface of the lower substrate are each provided with transparency Electrodes (such as Ding Xiao, etc.), coatings and alignment films, and a polarizing plate and a retardation plate are sequentially arranged on the top surface of the upper substrate, and a reflecting plate is formed on the bottom surface of the lower substrate. The reflecting plate is formed by a surface It is composed of a fine concave-convex transparent substrate, a reflective film and an adhesive layer covering it. In this way, after the incident light from the upper substrate passes through the liquid crystal layer, the incident light is reflected by the reflective film on the reflective plate, and then returns to the upper substrate through the liquid crystal layer, and the light or dark is generated under the switching control of the polarization direction of the liquid crystal layer. In the developing state, the reflective film on the reflective plate is related to the intensity of the reflected incident light, so the use of a material with a high reflectivity as the reflective film can effectively improve the image display effect of the reflective face-up display. This article describes the reflective film material that is plated on the reflective plate to reflect incident light to assist development. Known materials include aluminum, aluminum alloy, silver, and silver alloy. Among them, the cost of aluminum or aluminum alloy is low. , But has a reflectance of more than 80% only in a specific visible light wavelength section, as shown in the second figure, the reflectance of other visible light sections is less than 80%. As for silver, it has a high reflectance. As shown in the third figure, it can reach a high reflectance of more than 80% in the visible light wavelength range (wavelength 380 ~~ 80nm). However, silver has poor weatherability. Sulfides or oxides are easily formed in the general environment, and the reaction products will absorb blue light, causing the reflectivity of the reflective layer to decrease in the blue light band. Adding alloying elements to silver helps to improve weather resistance, but it may also cause a decrease in reflectance, as shown in the fourth figure, which reduces the daytime display clarity of this reflective flat panel display. For this reason, the main object of the present invention is to provide an aluminum or silver reflective film material that is different from existing aluminum or silver reflective film materials used in reflective flat-panel displays.
