Description

微膠囊液晶及其微膠囊液晶顯示裝置 Microcapsule liquid crystal and microcapsule liquid crystal display device thereof

本發明涉及一種顯示技術領域,尤其涉及一種微膠囊液晶以及包含導電物的微膠囊液晶顯示裝置,以實現黑白或彩色顯示。 The present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and in particular, to a microcapsule liquid crystal and a microcapsule liquid crystal display device including the conductive material to realize black and white or color display.

不論是瀕臨消失的CRT,還是現今主流的LCD,本質上都屬於傳統的剛性顯示器。與普通的剛性顯示器相比,柔性顯示器具有諸多優點:耐衝擊,抗震能力更強;重量輕、體積小,攜帶更加方便;採用類似於報紙印刷工藝的卷帶式工藝,成本更加低廉等。目前主要的柔性顯示材料大致可分為三種:電子紙(或柔性電泳顯示)、柔性OLED和柔性液晶等,其中又以電子紙最為廣泛。 Whether it is a CRT that is on the verge of disappearing, or a mainstream LCD today, it is essentially a traditional rigid display. Compared with ordinary rigid displays, flexible displays have many advantages: impact resistance, stronger shock resistance; light weight, small size, and more convenient carrying; using a tape-and-reel process similar to the newspaper printing process, the cost is lower. At present, the main flexible display materials can be roughly divided into three types: electronic paper (or flexible electrophoretic display), flexible OLED and flexible liquid crystal, among which electronic paper is the most widely used.

柔性顯示預期的大眾市場應用包括替代報紙、書籍和雜誌中的紙、銷售點(POS)終端設備、室內外標誌牌、智慧卡以及零售貨架標籤。這種技術在汽車市場中的潛力尤其巨大,涉及擋風玻璃、儀錶板、保險杆標籤、車內裝飾、GPS和其它資訊娛樂功能。隨著可穿戴電子設備越來越受追捧,市場對柔性顯示幕的需求將進一步擴大,柔性顯示幕的商業化道路也將一步步向前邁進。 Flexible display expected mass market applications include alternative papers in newspapers, books and magazines, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, indoor and outdoor signage, smart cards, and retail shelf labels. This technology has a particularly strong potential in the automotive market, involving windshields, dashboards, bumper tags, interior trim, GPS and other infotainment features. As wearable electronic devices become more and more sought after, the demand for flexible display screens will further expand, and the commercialization of flexible display screens will move forward step by step.

柔性顯示可以提供多元的外型與設計,而輕薄、耐衝擊的特性則適用於行動電話、PDA或筆記型電腦等可擕式產品中。除此之外,開發柔性顯示器另一重要因素在於其工藝可能由Sheet-fed Batch Processing轉換成Roll-to-Roll Manufacturing,意味著顯示器的製造成本可大幅降低。結合與紙張性質相似及機械性質上的優點與數位電子媒體可更新資訊的特性,加上製造成本的優勢,柔性顯示器極有可能替換目前的平面顯示器,並在新興市場取得商機。 The flexible display provides a versatile form factor and design, while the thin, shock-resistant features are suitable for portable products such as mobile phones, PDAs or notebook computers. In addition, another important factor in the development of flexible displays is that the process may be converted from Sheet-fed Batch Processing to Roll-to-Roll Manufacturing, meaning that the manufacturing cost of the display can be significantly reduced. Combining the similarities in paper properties with mechanical properties and the ability to update information on digital electronic media, coupled with manufacturing cost advantages, flexible displays are highly likely to replace current flat-panel displays and to capture business opportunities in emerging markets.

基於雙穩態電子紙技術的柔性顯示器是較為實用可行的發展方向。雙穩態是一種可以使影像(資料)在沒有外加電壓驅動的情況下,依然能夠保持的穩定“記憶效應”。傳統的顯示器,無論是否使用背光源,都需要電源來更新畫面以及穩定保持畫面,因此所消耗的電力過大。而具有雙穩態特點的電子紙,當一個影像被寫入電子紙時,不必再輸入額外的電源,此影像會一直被保留,只有在影像做切換時才需輸入額外電源,因此可以省電節能。並且,電子紙使用外界光進行顯示,相比主動發光顯示器或使用背光源的LCD,更加省電。 Flexible displays based on bistable electronic paper technology are more practical and feasible development directions. Bistability is a stable "memory effect" that allows images (data) to remain in the absence of an applied voltage. Conventional displays, whether or not they use a backlight, require a power supply to update the picture and stabilize the picture, so the power consumed is too large. The electronic paper with bistable characteristics, when an image is written into the electronic paper, does not need to input additional power, the image will be retained all the time, only need to input additional power when the image is switched, so it can save power Energy saving. Moreover, electronic paper uses external light for display, which is more energy efficient than an active light emitting display or an LCD using a backlight.

柔性顯示器尚未全面普及的原因之一是,構成柔性系統的專用部件還不夠齊全。柔性顯示的發展涉及材料開發、制程改善、制程設備修改、新的顯示模式開發、良率控制等課題。雙穩態電子紙技術涉及雙穩態材料開發、制程改善等課題。 One of the reasons why flexible displays are not yet fully available is that the specialized components that make up the flexible system are not yet fully available. The development of flexible displays involves topics such as material development, process improvement, process equipment modification, new display mode development, and yield control. The bistable electronic paper technology involves topics such as bistable material development and process improvement.

例如,在1985年申請的專利CN85104765A中,最早提出 了液晶乳液快速微膠囊制法,主要特徵是用兩種壁材採用雙層包封液晶;在製作過程中,將液晶核材膠囊的內外壁材、醇、水按一定比例配成互溶與不溶的混合物,並在其乳化同時用加溫固化法進行囊壁的硬化處理。用本發明製作液晶微膠囊為具有顯著溫度效應和光學特性的變色液晶進一步擴大其應用範圍提供了有利的條件。 For example, in the patent CN85104765A applied for in 1985, it was first proposed. The liquid crystal emulsion rapid microcapsule method is mainly characterized in that two kinds of wall materials are used to encapsulate the liquid crystal in two layers; in the process of production, the inner and outer wall materials, alcohol and water of the liquid crystal core material capsule are mutually dissolved and insoluble at a certain ratio. The mixture is emulsified while the emulsification process is carried out by a warm curing method. The use of the present invention for producing liquid crystal microcapsules provides advantageous conditions for the color-changing liquid crystal having significant temperature and optical properties to further expand the range of application thereof.

雙穩態電子紙技術主要包括粒子移動型電子紙技術和雙穩態液晶顯示技術兩大類。粒子移動型電子紙技術的主流是微膠囊電泳顯示技術,但是微膠囊中的粒子移動速度較慢,影響了基於微膠囊電泳顯示技術的電子紙的翻頁切換速度。液晶分子比微膠囊中的粒子小,在電場作用下可以快速轉動,所以開發雙穩態的液晶微膠囊是發展雙穩態電子紙技術的一個重要方向。 The bistable electronic paper technology mainly includes two types of particle moving electronic paper technology and bistable liquid crystal display technology. The mainstream of particle-moving electronic paper technology is microcapsule electrophoretic display technology, but the moving speed of particles in microcapsules is slow, which affects the page turning speed of electronic paper based on microcapsule electrophoresis display technology. The liquid crystal molecules are smaller than the particles in the microcapsules and can rotate rapidly under the action of an electric field. Therefore, the development of bistable liquid crystal microcapsules is an important direction for the development of bistable electronic paper technology.

When a low frequency voltage is applied by adding a conductive material to the liquid crystal layer of the capsule, the arrangement of the liquid crystal is disturbed, and the liquid crystal is lowered. Orderly, this low order can be maintained after power is removed.
