可切換透鏡單元及其製造方法及包含其的可切換式 平面立體顯示器Switchable lens unit, method of manufacturing the same, and switchable type including same Flat stereo display

本發明是有關於一種透鏡單元及其製造方法及包含其的顯示器,且特別是有關於一種可切換透鏡單元及其製造方法及包含其的可切換式平面立體顯示器。The present invention relates to a lens unit, a method of fabricating the same, and a display therefor, and more particularly to a switchable lens unit, a method of fabricating the same, and a switchable planar stereoscopic display including the same.

近年來,隨著顯示技術的不斷進步,使用者對於顯示器之顯示品質(如影像解析度、色彩飽和度等)的要求也越來越高。然而,除了高影像解析度以及高色彩飽和度之外,為了滿足使用者觀看真實影像的需求,亦發展出能夠顯示出立體影像的立體顯示器。In recent years, with the continuous advancement of display technology, users have become more and more demanding on the display quality of displays (such as image resolution, color saturation, etc.). However, in addition to high image resolution and high color saturation, in order to meet the needs of users to view real images, stereoscopic displays capable of displaying stereoscopic images have also been developed.

依據使用者配戴特殊設計的頭戴式眼鏡與否,立體顯示器可分成眼鏡式(stereoscopic)以及裸眼觀看的裸眼式(auto-stereoscopic)。裸眼式顯示器主要是利用視差(parallax)方式 產生立體效果,根據切換二維平面顯示與三維立體顯示之顯示技術可細分為:光屏障式(Parallax barrier)、柱狀透鏡式(lenticular lens)和指向光源式(directional backlight)三種。以柱狀透鏡式顯示技術來說,將液晶聚合物層形成在稜鏡片上以製作柱狀透鏡結構,在搭配液晶顯示器的使用下,柱狀透鏡結構作為將二維平面顯示切換成三維立體顯示的切換透鏡。The stereoscopic display can be divided into stereoscopic and auto-stereoscopic viewing by the naked eye depending on whether the user wears a specially designed headwear. The naked eye display mainly uses the parallax method The stereoscopic effect can be subdivided into three types: a Parallax barrier, a lenticular lens, and a directional backlight. In the case of a lenticular lens display technology, a liquid crystal polymer layer is formed on a cymbal sheet to form a lenticular lens structure, and the lenticular lens structure is used to switch a two-dimensional planar display into a three-dimensional stereo display in use with a liquid crystal display. Switching lens.

圖1為一種習知的柱狀透鏡結構的示意圖(上方)與對應的平面投影示意圖(下方)。請參照圖1,柱狀透鏡結構100包括稜鏡片110與配置於稜鏡片110上的液晶聚合物層120。液晶聚合物層120包括多個液晶分子122a、122b、122c,液晶聚合物層120具有凸透部分124以及位於凸透部分124之間的稜線126。1 is a schematic view (upper) and a corresponding plan view (bottom) of a conventional lenticular lens structure. Referring to FIG. 1 , the lenticular lens structure 100 includes a cymbal sheet 110 and a liquid crystal polymer layer 120 disposed on the cymbal sheet 110 . The liquid crystal polymer layer 120 includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 122a, 122b, 122c having a convex portion 124 and a ridge line 126 between the convex portions 124.

如圖1所示,以入光處120a的液晶聚合物層120的配向方向Db為基準,鄰近於稜鏡片110處的液晶聚合物層120的配向方向Da必須與配向方向Db平行。注意到的是,液晶聚合物層120的凸透部分124的曲面結構會提供錨定力F,此錨定力F的平面分量Fa會對配置於該處的液晶聚合物層120的配向方向Da的平面分量產生影響。也就是說,相較於液晶分子122a的排列,液晶分子122b、122c的排列會受到該處曲面結構的錨定力F影響而歪斜,導致錯向線的產生。如此一來,當光L通過柱狀透鏡結構100時,有一部分的光L’會偏折而聚集,而有一部分的光L”會發散而無法聚集,因此有聚光效果不佳的問題發生。As shown in FIG. 1, the alignment direction Da of the liquid crystal polymer layer 120 adjacent to the wafer 110 must be parallel to the alignment direction Db with reference to the alignment direction Db of the liquid crystal polymer layer 120 of the light entrance portion 120a. It is noted that the curved surface structure of the convex portion 124 of the liquid crystal polymer layer 120 provides an anchoring force F, and the plane component Fa of the anchoring force F will be in the alignment direction Da of the liquid crystal polymer layer 120 disposed there. The plane component has an effect. That is to say, compared with the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules 122a, the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules 122b, 122c is affected by the anchoring force F of the curved structure, and is skewed, resulting in the generation of the misalignment line. In this way, when the light L passes through the lenticular lens structure 100, a part of the light L' will be deflected and aggregated, and a part of the light L" will diverge and cannot be collected, so that the problem of poor light collecting effect occurs. .

綜上所述,在習知柱狀透鏡結構中,必須將鄰近於稜鏡 片處的液晶聚合物層的配向方向設計成與入光側的液晶聚合物層的配向方向平行,此造成製程裕度的限制。此外,液晶聚合物層中的液晶分子的配向方向不一致,因此所呈現出的折射係數會有差異,導致液晶聚合物層的聚光效果不佳。如此一來,容易發生三維影像產生疊影(cross-talk)以及二維影像產生干涉波紋(Moire pattern)等問題,造成二維平面顯示與三維立體顯示的顯示品質不佳。In summary, in the conventional lenticular lens structure, it must be adjacent to 稜鏡 The alignment direction of the liquid crystal polymer layer at the sheet is designed to be parallel to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal polymer layer on the light incident side, which causes a limitation in process margin. Further, since the alignment directions of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal polymer layer are not uniform, the refractive index exhibited may be different, resulting in poor concentration of the liquid crystal polymer layer. As a result, problems such as cross-talk of the three-dimensional image and interference of the two-dimensional image are generated, resulting in poor display quality of the two-dimensional display and the three-dimensional display.

請同時參照圖2D與圖3,接著,對經配向的液晶聚合物層230進行一固化製程SP,其中鄰近稜鏡片210的液晶分子232的長軸的平面投影方向Dx與稜線方向De實質上垂直。在本實施例中,固化製程SP例如是UV照射製程。固化製程SP使得液晶聚合物層230固化,因此液晶聚合物層230中的液晶分子232會被固定在上述的狀態,也就是液晶分子232的平面投影方向Dx平行於稜鏡片210的第一配向方向D1。其中,鄰近稜鏡片210的液晶分子232的配向方向不需要平行於液晶聚合物層230的入光處230a的液晶分子232的配向方向。Referring to FIG. 2D and FIG. 3 simultaneously, a curing process SP is performed on the aligned liquid crystal polymer layer 230, wherein the planar projection direction Dx of the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules 232 adjacent to the cymbal 210 is substantially perpendicular to the ridgeline direction De. . In the present embodiment, the curing process SP is, for example, a UV irradiation process. The curing process SP causes the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 to be cured, so that the liquid crystal molecules 232 in the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 are fixed in the above state, that is, the plane projection direction Dx of the liquid crystal molecules 232 is parallel to the first alignment direction of the die 210. D1. The alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules 232 adjacent to the ruthenium 210 does not need to be parallel to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules 232 of the light entrance portion 230a of the liquid crystal polymer layer 230.

請參照圖2E,然後,移除配向膜220。移除配向膜220的方法例如是撕除法。Referring to FIG. 2E, the alignment film 220 is then removed. The method of removing the alignment film 220 is, for example, a tear-off method.

請同時參照圖2E與圖3,在本實施例中,可切換透鏡單元200包括稜鏡片210以及液晶聚合物層230。稜鏡片210具有多個凹透部分212以及形成於凹透部分212之間的多條稜線214,其中各稜線214具有稜線方向De。液晶聚合物層230覆蓋在稜鏡片210上,具有與凹透部分212相對配置的多個凸透部分234,液晶 聚合物層230包括多個液晶分子232,其中鄰近稜鏡片234的液晶分子232的長軸具有平面投影方向Dx,平面投影方向Dx與稜線方向De實質上垂直。在本實施例中,平面投影方向Dx與稜線方向De之間的角度例如是85~95度。Referring to FIG. 2E and FIG. 3 simultaneously, in the embodiment, the switchable lens unit 200 includes a cymbal 210 and a liquid crystal polymer layer 230. The crotch panel 210 has a plurality of concavely transmissive portions 212 and a plurality of ridgelines 214 formed between the concave transmissive portions 212, wherein each of the ridgelines 214 has a ridgeline direction De. The liquid crystal polymer layer 230 is covered on the cymbal 210, and has a plurality of convex portions 234 disposed opposite to the concave portion 212, and the liquid crystal The polymer layer 230 includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 232, wherein the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules 232 adjacent to the ruthenium 234 has a planar projection direction Dx, and the plane projection direction Dx is substantially perpendicular to the ridgeline direction De. In the present embodiment, the angle between the plane projection direction Dx and the ridge line direction De is, for example, 85 to 95 degrees.

在上述實施例中,由於液晶分子232的長軸的平面投影方向Dx與稜線方向De實質上垂直,因此液晶聚合物層230的凸透部分231的錨定力F不會有垂直於液晶分子232的配向方向的分量產生。因此,鄰近稜鏡片210的液晶分子232具有相同的平面投影方向Dx,也就是鄰近稜鏡片210的液晶聚合物層230中的液晶分子232具有均勻的配向性。In the above embodiment, since the plane projection direction Dx of the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules 232 is substantially perpendicular to the ridgeline direction De, the anchoring force F of the convex portion 231 of the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 is not perpendicular to the liquid crystal molecules 232. The component of the alignment direction is generated. Therefore, the liquid crystal molecules 232 adjacent to the crotch sheet 210 have the same planar projection direction Dx, that is, the liquid crystal molecules 232 in the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 adjacent to the crotch sheet 210 have uniform alignment.

在本實施例中,顯示面板300例如是包括一對基板310、320、顯示介質330以及畫素陣列層312。畫素陣列層312配置於基板310上,且例如是包括掃描線、資料線、主動元件以及畫素電極。顯示介質330封裝於基板310與基板320之間。在一實施例中,顯示介質330的材質可以是自發光材料(例如:有機發光材料、無機發光材料、或其它合適的材料、或上述的組合)、非自發光材料(例如:液晶材料、電泳材料、電濕潤材料、或其它合適的材料)、或是其他可以造成顯示光線具有不同亮度的材料、或上述至少一種材料之組合。在本實施例中,顯示面板300例如是更包括一偏光片340,第二配向方向D2或入光側的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Di實質上平行於偏光片340的穿透軸方向Dt。In the present embodiment, the display panel 300 includes, for example, a pair of substrates 310, 320, a display medium 330, and a pixel array layer 312. The pixel array layer 312 is disposed on the substrate 310 and includes, for example, a scan line, a data line, an active device, and a pixel electrode.

In the present embodiment, the display panel 300 further includes a polarizer 340, and the alignment direction Di of the liquid crystal polymer layer in the second alignment direction D2 or the light incident side is substantially parallel to the transmission axis direction Dt of the polarizer 340.

在習知技術中,液晶聚合物層中鄰近稜鏡片的液晶分子的配向方向會受到結構所產生之錨定力的平面分量影響,導致配向方向不一致,進而產生錯向線與不佳的聚光效果。然而,在上述實施例中,於可切換透鏡單元200的液晶聚合物層230中,由於液晶分子232的長軸的平面投影方向Dx與稜線方向214實質上垂直,因此液晶聚合物230的凸透部分234的錨定力F不會有垂直於液晶分子232的配向方向的分量產生。因此,鄰近稜鏡片210 的液晶分子232具有相同的平面投影方向Dx,也就是鄰近稜鏡片210的液晶聚合物層230中的液晶分子232具有均勻的配向性。也就是說,能避免液晶聚合物層230中產生錯向線,使得液晶聚合物層230具有較佳的聚光效果。如此一來,在採用本實施例之可切換透鏡單元200的可切換式平面立體顯示器10中,可以避免3D影像產生疊影以及2D影像產生干涉波紋,因此具有良好的顯示品質。In the prior art, the alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the ruthenium in the liquid crystal polymer layer is affected by the plane component of the anchoring force generated by the structure, resulting in inconsistent alignment directions, resulting in misalignment and poor concentrating. effect. However, in the above embodiment, in the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 of the switchable lens unit 200, since the plane projection direction Dx of the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules 232 is substantially perpendicular to the ridge line direction 214, the liquid crystal polymer 230 is convex. The anchoring force F of the portion 234 does not have a component perpendicular to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules 232. Therefore, adjacent to the cymbal 210 The liquid crystal molecules 232 have the same planar projection direction Dx, that is, the liquid crystal molecules 232 in the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 adjacent to the ruthenium 210 have uniform alignment. That is, the occurrence of a misalignment in the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 can be avoided, so that the liquid crystal polymer layer 230 has a better light collecting effect. In this manner, in the switchable planar stereoscopic display 10 using the switchable lens unit 200 of the present embodiment, the 3D image generation overlap and the 2D image interference ripple can be avoided, and thus the display quality is good.

接下來將以實驗例與比較例來驗證本發明之可切換透鏡單元的效果。Next, the effects of the switchable lens unit of the present invention will be verified by experimental examples and comparative examples.

實驗例1、實驗例2、比較例1與2以及比較例3的可切換透鏡單元的組成構件完全相同,不同處僅在於鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向與稜鏡片的稜線之間的夾角。圖5A至圖5D依序為根據本發明之實驗例1、實驗例2、比較例1與2以及比較例3的可切換透鏡單元的簡單示意圖(上)以及液晶聚合物層的顯微照(中)與直觀照(下),其中在簡單示意圖中繪示稜線PS、鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc以及入光側的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Di,其中液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc平行於液晶分子的長軸的平面投影方向Dx且與稜線PS垂直。The constituent members of the switchable lens unit of Experimental Example 1, Experimental Example 2, Comparative Examples 1 and 2, and Comparative Example 3 were identical except for the alignment direction of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the cymbal sheet and the ridge line of the cymbal sheet. The angle of the. 5A to 5D are a simplified schematic view of the switchable lens unit of the experimental example 1, the experimental example 2, the comparative examples 1 and 2, and the comparative example 3 according to the present invention, and the photomicrograph of the liquid crystal polymer layer ( And a visual photograph (bottom) in which the ridge line PS, the alignment direction Dc of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium, and the alignment direction Di of the liquid crystal polymer layer on the light incident side are shown in a simple schematic, wherein the liquid crystal polymer layer The alignment direction Dc is parallel to the plane projection direction Dx of the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules and is perpendicular to the ridge line PS.

請參照圖5A與圖5B,在根據本發明之實驗例1與2中,當鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc分別與稜線PS垂直,未在液晶聚合物層中觀察到錯向線。也就是說,液晶聚合物層的液晶分子具有良好的配向均勻性。Referring to FIGS. 5A and 5B, in Experimental Examples 1 and 2 according to the present invention, when the alignment direction Dc of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium is perpendicular to the ridge line PS, respectively, no misdirection is observed in the liquid crystal polymer layer. line. That is, the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal polymer layer have good alignment uniformity.

請參照圖5C,在比較例1與2中,當鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc分別與稜線PS之間具有0度(比較例1)或180度(比較例2)的夾角,也就是配向方向Dc分別與稜線PS平行時,在液晶聚合物層中觀察到明顯的錯向線。也就是說,液晶聚合物層的液晶分子具有較差的配向均勻性。Referring to FIG. 5C, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, when the alignment direction Dc of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium and the ridge line PS have an angle of 0 degree (Comparative Example 1) or 180 degrees (Comparative Example 2), respectively. That is, when the alignment direction Dc is parallel to the ridge line PS, respectively, a significant misdirection line is observed in the liquid crystal polymer layer. That is, the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal polymer layer have poor alignment uniformity.

請參照圖5D,比較例3為習知常用的液晶聚合物層的配向方式,也就是將鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc設計成與入光處的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Di平行,由液晶聚合物層的顯微照與巨觀照可知,在鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層中觀察到錯向線。Referring to FIG. 5D, Comparative Example 3 is a conventional alignment mode of a liquid crystal polymer layer, that is, an alignment direction Dc of a liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to a ruthenium is designed to be aligned with a liquid crystal polymer layer at a light entrance. Di parallel, from the microscopic and macroscopic observations of the liquid crystal polymer layer, a misalignment was observed in the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium.

表1顯示實驗例1與2以及比較例1至3的液晶聚合物層的對比率,其中對比率用以表示液晶聚合物層的配向均勻性,其中液晶聚合物層的對比率(contract ratio)與液晶聚合物層的配向均勻性成正比。Table 1 shows the contrast ratios of the liquid crystal polymer layers of Experimental Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, wherein the contrast ratio is used to indicate the alignment uniformity of the liquid crystal polymer layer, wherein the liquid crystal polymer layer has a contract ratio It is proportional to the alignment uniformity of the liquid crystal polymer layer.

由表1可知,將鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc設計成與稜線PS垂直(實驗例1與2)可以獲得良好的配向均勻性,且所獲得的配向均勻性與習知的配向方式(比較例3)所獲得的配向均勻性相似。然而,相較於習知的配向方式,本發明使鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc與稜線PS垂直可以進一步 避免錯向線的產生,進而避免3D影像產生疊影以及2D影像產生干涉波紋。此外,雖然實驗例1與比較例3具有相近的配向均勻性,但相較於習知比較例3的配置方式,實驗例1的液晶聚合物層的配向方式不要求鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Dc需與入光處的液晶聚合物層的配向方向Di平行,因此具有簡單製程的優點,且適於根據不同的稜鏡片進行微調,故具有較大的製程裕度。As can be seen from Table 1, the alignment direction Dc of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium sheet was designed to be perpendicular to the ridge line PS (Experimental Examples 1 and 2), and good alignment uniformity was obtained, and the alignment uniformity obtained was conventionally known. The alignment uniformity obtained by the alignment method (Comparative Example 3) was similar. However, the present invention allows the alignment direction Dc of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the ruthenium to be perpendicular to the ridge line PS as compared with the conventional alignment mode. Avoid the generation of misaligned lines, thus avoiding the generation of overlapping images in 3D images and interference ripples in 2D images. Further, although Experimental Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 have similar alignment uniformity, the alignment manner of the liquid crystal polymer layer of Experimental Example 1 does not require liquid crystal polymer adjacent to the ruthenium sheet, compared to the configuration of Conventional Comparative Example 3. The alignment direction Dc of the layer needs to be parallel to the alignment direction Di of the liquid crystal polymer layer at the light entrance, so that it has the advantages of a simple process and is suitable for fine adjustment according to different ruthenium sheets, so that it has a large process margin.

綜上所述,在本發明之可切換透鏡單元中,鄰近稜鏡片的液晶分子的長軸的平面投影方向與稜線方向實質上垂直。也就是說,鄰近稜鏡片的液晶分子的長軸具有一致的平面投影方向,因此該處的液晶分子具有良好的配向均勻性。如此一來,由於液晶聚合物層的凸透部分的錨定力不會有垂直於液晶分子的配向方向的分量產生,因此減少液晶分子產生錯向線的機會,進而避免3D影像疊影以及2D影像產生干涉波紋。因此,包含可切換透鏡單元的可切換式平面立體顯示器具有良好的顯示品質。此外,相較於習知鄰近稜鏡片的液晶聚合物層的配向方向需與入光處的液晶聚合物層的配向方向平行的設計,本發明不要求上述兩者配向方向必須平行,但本發明之一實施例能達到與習知配向方式相似的配向均勻性。因此,本發明之可切換透鏡單元的製造方法適於根據不同形狀的稜鏡片進行微調,故具有較大的製程裕度。In summary, in the switchable lens unit of the present invention, the planar projection direction of the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the cymbal is substantially perpendicular to the ridge direction. That is to say, the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the cymbal has a uniform plane projection direction, so that the liquid crystal molecules there have good alignment uniformity. In this way, since the anchoring force of the convex portion of the liquid crystal polymer layer is not generated by a component perpendicular to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules, the chance of the liquid crystal molecules being misdirected is reduced, thereby avoiding 3D image overlay and 2D. The image produces interference ripples. Therefore, the switchable planar stereoscopic display including the switchable lens unit has good display quality. In addition, the alignment direction of the liquid crystal polymer layer adjacent to the conventional tantalum sheet needs to be parallel to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal polymer layer at the light entrance, and the present invention does not require that the alignment directions of the above two must be parallel, but the present invention One embodiment achieves alignment uniformity similar to the conventional alignment. Therefore, the manufacturing method of the switchable lens unit of the present invention is suitable for fine adjustment according to the different shapes of the cymbal, so that it has a large process margin.
