技术领域
本发明的实施例涉及一种显示装置, 特别是, 涉及一种用于显示装置的光 栅、 显示装置及光栅的制造方法。 背景技术
随着液晶显示技术的不断发展, 3D ( Three-Dimensional, 三维)立体显示 技术已经备受关注。光栅 3D显示器由光栅和 2D (二维)显示器精密耦合而成。 根据所用光栅的不同, 光栅 3D显示器分为狭缝式光栅 3D显示器和柱透镜式 光栅 3D显示器, 其目的是对光线传播的路径进行一定方式的控制, 使观看者 的左右眼观看到不同的视差图像, 从而在人脑中合成立体图像。
在 3D显示技术中, 基于液晶光栅的 3D 显示装置由于结构简单、 与液晶 工艺较为兼容以及性能良好等优点而备受关注,其中,所述基于液晶光栅的 3D 显示装置通常是基于双目视差和光栅结构分光原理来实现 3D 立体显示效果 的, 其一般包括显示器件和设置于所述显示器件上方的液晶光栅。
如图 1所示, 现有技术液晶光栅的结构示意图, 所述光栅包括相对设置的 上基板 11和下基板 12, 以及位于上基板 11和下基板 12之间的液晶层 15, 上 基板 11面向液晶层 15的一面具有条形电极 13 ,下基板 12面向液晶层 15的一 面具有板式电极 14。板式电极接地,对不同位置的条形电极施加设定的周期性 电压, 可使得不同位置的液晶在电场的作用下沿特定方向排列, 进而实现液晶 层折射率的空间分布, 当液晶层折射率的分布呈现类似于固态凸透镜的分布 时, 可以实现 3D显示。
现有技术的缺陷在于, 光栅中液晶的选择有限, 液晶折射率分布受到液晶 偏转的限制, 导致可视角度较小, 此外液晶成本较高。 发明内容 本发明的目的是提供一种光栅、 显示装置及光栅的制造方法, 用以提高光 栅可视角度, 并降低光栅成本。
根据本发明的一种实施例, 提供一种光栅, 包括:
相对设置的第一基板和第二基板, 所述第一基板的面向第二基板的一表面 设有板式电极, 所述第二基板的面向第一基板的一表面设有多个间隔排列的条 形电极;
多个挡墙, 设置成分别与所述条形电极相对应, 并位于第一基板和第二基 板之间, 每个所述挡墙包括:
与所述条形电极电连接的导电凸起部; 以及
覆盖所述导电凸起部的亲疏水转换材料层; 以及
填充于每两个相邻的所述挡墙之间的极性液体层和非极性液体层。
根据本发明的上述技术方案,不釆用液晶,而釆用极性液体和非极性液体, 通过极性液体和非极性液体的对亲疏水转换材料层的亲疏性质不同, 等同形成 柱透镜式光栅。 由于极性液体和非极性液体有多种选择, 两种液体的折射率差 异较大, 与亲疏水转换材料层形成的曲面弧度较大, 因此, 折射率分布的范围 较大, 可以提高可视角度, 并且相比于液晶, 液体的成本较低。 当对条形电极 加正电时, 亲疏水转换材料层呈现疏水性, 极性液体与呈现疏水性的亲疏水转 换材料的接触角较大, 极性液体和非极性液体的界面可以保持水平, 相当于平 面透镜; 当不对条形电极加电或对条形电极加负电时, 亲疏水转换材料层呈现 亲水性, 所述非极性液体和极性液体的界面呈现向所述极性液体一侧凸出的凸 面, 相当于柱式凸透镜, 因此通过本发明的技术方案也可实现图像的二维与三 维的转换。 另外, 液晶光栅的液晶受温度限制, 而本发明的光栅采用液体, 对 周围环境的温度适应性较好, 可以应用于较热或较冷的空间。
所述光栅还包括位于所述板式电极的面向所述第二基板的表面的疏水层, 所述疏水层与极性液体层接触。 即, 当靠近所述第二基板的一层液体为非极性 液体, 靠近所述第一基板的一层液体为极性液体时, 板式电极上设置疏水层。 所述光栅还包括位于所述板式电极的面向所述第二基板的表面的亲水层 , 所述亲水层与非极性液体层接触。 即, 当靠近所述第二基板的一层液体为极性 液体,靠近所述第一基板的一层液体为非极性液体时,板式电极上设置亲水层。
制作疏水层的材料可以选择常见的疏水性材料。 在一种实施例中, 所述疏 水层由聚酰亚胺(Polyimide, 简称 PI )材料制成。
制作亲水层的材料可以选择常见的亲水性材料。 在一种实施例中, 所述亲 水层由聚丙烯酸树脂制成。
第一基板和第二基板为透明基板, 板式电极为透明板式电极, 条形电极可 以为透明条形电极也可以为不透明条形电极。
在一种实施例中, 所述导电凸起部由金属材料制成, 例如金属导电凸起部 由铜或金制成; 或者,
所述导电凸起部包括支撑凸起部以及覆盖所述支撑凸起部的导电层, 所述 导电层与所述条形电极电连接, 导电层也可以由铜或金制成。
挡墙的垂直于所述透明基板所在平面的截面可以为多种形状, 例如方形、 三角形和梯形。 在一种实施例中, 釆用挡墙的垂直于所述透明基板所在平面的 截面为梯形。
在一种实施例中, 选择所述梯形的内角与极性液体的接触角相同, 当所述 极性液体为水或水溶液,所述梯形的内锐角为 75~85度。由于使用水更加环保, 因此极性液体优选为水或水溶液。
在上述光栅中, 所述挡墙设置于所述条形电极上。
在上述光栅中, 亲疏水转换材料层由 16-巯基十六烷基酸制成, 也可以釆 用其他常见的亲疏水转换材料, 其他的比如聚苯乙烯 /纳米二氧化钛复合涂层。
当导电凸起部带正电荷时, 16-巯基十六烷基酸呈现疏水性, 与极性溶液 有较大的接触角, 极性溶液与非极性溶液的界面基本水平, 显示器光线经过光 栅后光线不发生改变, 为二维显示效果; 当导电凸起部带负电荷或不带电时, 16-巯基十六烷基酸呈现亲水性, 与极性溶液有较小的接触角, 极性溶液与非 极性溶液的界面向极性溶液一侧形成凸面, 相当于形成曲面透镜, 即在显示器 的光线射出端放置有柱透镜式光栅, 实现三维显示效果。
根据本发明进一步方面的实施例, 提供一种显示装置, 包括显示器件以及 位于所述显示器件出光侧的上述任一种实施例所述的光栅。
由于通过对条形电极施加不同的电荷, 上述光栅可以为平面透镜, 也可以 形成曲面透镜, 因此, 该显示装置可以实现二维 /三维切换。
根据本发明更进一步方面的实施例, 提供一种光栅的制造方法, 包括如下 步骤:
在第二基板上形成多个间隔排布的条形电极;
在每个所述条形电极上形成导电凸起部以及覆盖所述导电凸起部的亲疏 水转换材料层, 所述导电凸起部及亲疏水转换材料层形成挡墙;

术方案进行清楚、 完整地描述, 显然, 所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实 施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于本发明中的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在 没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范 围。
为了提高光栅可视角度, 并降低光栅成本, 根据本发明的总体上的发明构 思, 提供了一种光栅, 包括: 相对设置的第一基板和第二基板, 所述第一基板 的面向第二基板的一侧具有板式电极, 所述第二基板的面向第一基板的一侧具 有多个间隔排列的条形电极; 多个挡墙, 设置成分别与所述条形电极相对应, 并位于第一基板和第二基板之间; 以及填充于每两个相邻的所述挡墙之间的极 性液体层和非极性液体层。 每个所述挡墙包括: 与所述条形电极电连接的导电 凸起部; 以及覆盖所述导电凸起部的亲疏水转换材料层。
在本发明的光栅中, 由于极性液体层和非极性液体层有多种选择, 两种液 体层的折射率差异较大, 与亲疏水转换材料层形成的曲面弧度较大, 因此, 折 射率分布的范围较大,可以提高可视角度,并且相比于液晶,液体的成本较低。
图 2为根据本发明的第一种实例性实施例的光栅的结构示意图。 所述光栅 包括: 相对设置的第一基板 1和第二基板 2、 多个挡墙 5、 以及极性液体层和 非极性液体层。 第一基板 1的面向第二基板 2的表面设有板式电极 3 , 第二基 板 2的面向第一基板 1的表面设有多个间隔排列的条形电极 4。 多个挡墙 5设 置成分别与每个条形电极 4相对应, 多个挡墙 5位于第一基板 1和第二基板 2 之间, 每个挡墙 5包括与条形电极 4电连接的导电凸起部 51 以及覆盖导电凸 起部 51的亲疏水转换材料层 52。 极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6填充于每两 个相邻的挡墙 5之间, 并沿挡墙 5的高度方向分为两层。
在本发明的实施例中, 非极性液体层 6和极性液体层 7的位置不限于图 2 中所示位置, 即非极性液体层 6和极性液体层 7的位置可以与图 2中非极性液 体层 6和极性液体层 7的位置互换。 在本发明的实施例的光栅中不釆用液晶, 而釆用极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6 , 通过极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6 的对亲疏水转换材料层 52的亲疏性质不同改变其折射率。 例如, 当不对条形 电极 4加电或对条形电极 4加负电压时, 亲疏水转换材料层 52呈现亲水性, 非极性液体层 6和极性液体层 7的界面呈现向极性液体层 7—侧凸出的凸面, 等同形成柱透镜式光栅。 由于极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6有多种选择, 两 种液体层的折射率差异较大, 形成的曲面弧度较大, 因此, 折射率分布的范围 较大, 由此可以提高可视角度, 并且相比于液晶, 液体的成本较低。 另外, 液 晶光栅的液晶受温度限制, 而本发明的光栅釆用液体, 对周围环境的温度适应 性较好, 可以应用于较热或较冷的空间。
图 3为图 2所示的光栅的立体分解示意图, 图中未示出极性液体层和非极 性液体层。 如图 3所示, 第一基板 1上设有板式电极 3 , 第二基板 2上设有多 个间隔排列的条形电极 4, 挡墙 5设置在条形电极 4上, 每两个相邻的挡墙 5 之间具有极性液体层和非极性液体层。
请继续参照图 2所示,当不对条形电极 4加电或对条形电极 4加负电压时, 亲疏水转换材料层 52呈现亲水性, 非极性液体层 6和极性液体层 7的界面呈 现向极性液体层 7—侧凸出的凸面, 即形成多个凸面透镜。 如图 4所示, 当对 条形电极 4施加正电压时, 亲疏水转换材料层 52呈现疏水性, 极性液体层 7 和非极性液体层 6的界面可以保持水平, 相当于平面透镜。 因此通过本发明的 光栅也可实现图像的二维显示、 以及二维至三维的转换。
在一种示例性实施例中, 极性液体层 7可选用纯水、 无机水溶液、 例如氯 化钠水溶液、 氯化钾水溶液等; 非极性液体层 6可选用无色透明的油质, 例如 可选用苯曱基硅油, 其折射率为 1.425 , 密度为 1.07。 可以选择密度差别较大 的极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6 , 以保证光栅移动时两种液体层的层间位置 关系, 具体可以理解为极性液体层 7和非极性液体层 6相互之间的上下关系, 需要说明的是这里所说的 "上、 下" 只是相对的, 本发明并不做限制。
图 5为根据本发明的第二种实例性实施例的光栅的结构示意图。如图 5所 示, 当非极性液体层 6靠近第二基板 2 , 极性液体层 7靠近第一基板 1时, 光 栅还包括位于板式电极 3的面向第二基板 2的表面上的疏水层 8, 即疏水层 8 与极性液体层 7接触。 如此设置有利于区分液体界面, 防止非极性液体层 6与 极性液体层 7的分布不理想。
图 6为根据本发明的第三种实例性实施例的光栅的结构示意图。如图 6所 示, 当极性液体层 7靠近第二基板 2, 非极性液体层 6靠近第一基板 1时, 光 栅还包括位于板式电极 3的面向第二基板 2的表面上的亲水层 9, 即亲水层 9 与非极性液体层 6接触。 如此设置有利于区分液体界面, 防止非极性液体层 6 与极性液体层 7的分布不理想。
形成疏水层 8的材料可以为常见的疏水性材料。 例如, 疏水层 8由聚酰亚 胺( Polyimide , 简称 PI )材料制成。
形成亲水层 9的材料可以为常见的亲水性材料。 例如, 亲水层 9由聚丙烯 酸树脂制成。 对于疏水层 8和亲水层 9的厚度无特殊要求, 只要能够保证膜层 的均匀性即可, 一般厚度设置为 400埃〜 2000埃。
第一基板 1和第二基板 2为透明基板, 板式电极 3为透明板式电极, 条形 电极 4可以透明条形电极也可以为不透明条形电极。制作透明电极的材质可以 为 ITO ( Indium Tin Oxide, 匕铟锡)或 IZO ( Indium Zinc Oxide, 匕铟辞), 厚度一般在 400埃〜 2000埃。
请继续参照图 2所示, 在一种实施例中, 导电凸起部 51 由金属导材料制 成, 例如, 制作金属导电凸起部的材质可以为铜或金。 在一种可替换的实施 例中, 导电凸起部 51 包括支撑凸起部以及覆盖支撑凸起部的导电层, 导电层 与条形电极 4电连接。 制作导电层的材质也可以为铜或金。 支撑凸起部主要起 到支撑挡墙的作用, 其材质可以为氮化硅。 由于与条形电极 4电连接的仅为导 电层, 而且由于导电层制作时沉积厚度较小, 因此釆用导电凸起部 51 包括支 撑凸起部以及覆盖支撑凸起部的导电层的实施方案还可以提高生产效率。
如图 2、 4-6所示, 挡墙 5的垂直于所述透明基板所在平面的截面可以为 多种形状, 例如方形、 三角形和梯形, 优选釆用挡墙 5的垂直于所述透明基板 所在平面的截面为梯形。
选择梯形的内角与极性液体层 7与亲疏水转换材料呈现亲水性的接触角相 同。 例如, 当极性液体层 7为水或水溶液, 设计梯形的内锐角为 75~85度。 由 于使用水更加环保, 因此形成极性液体层 7的极性液体可以为水或水溶液。
如图 2-6所示, 挡墙 5设置于条形电极 4上, 并且挡墙 5的导电凸起部 51 与条形电极 4电连接。 这样, 覆盖在导电凸起部 51上的亲疏水转换材料层 52 可以根据条形电极 4的通电状态和 /或极性呈现亲水性或者疏水性。
对上述各种实施例所述的任一种光栅,亲疏水转换材料层 52由 16-巯基十 六烷基酸制成, 但本发明并不局限于此。 也可以釆用其他常见的亲疏水转换材 料, 例如, 聚苯乙烯 /纳米二氧化钛复合涂层。
当导电凸起部 51带正电荷时, 16-巯基十六烷基酸呈现疏水性, 与极性溶 液有较大的接触角, 极性溶液 7与非极性溶液 6的界面基本水平, 显示器光线 经过光栅后光线不发生变化, 具有二维显示效果; 当导电凸起部 52带负电荷 或不带电时, 16-巯基十六烷基酸呈现亲水性, 与极性溶液有较小的接触角, 极性溶液 7与非极性溶液 6的界面向极性溶液一侧形成凸面,相当于形成曲面 透镜, 即在显示器的光线射出端放置有柱透镜式光栅, 实现三维显示效果, 从 而实现二维 /三维显示的转换。
本发明的实施例还提供一种显示装置, 如图 7所示, 所述显示装置包括显 示器件 10以及位于显示器件 10出光侧的上述任一实施例所述的光栅。
由于通过对条形电极 4施加不同的电荷, 上述光栅可以为平面透镜, 也可 以形成曲面透镜, 因此, 该显示装置可以作为二维 /三维可切换显示装置。
在本发明的显示装置中, 若显示器件 10为液晶面板, 条形电极 4的位置 可以在彩膜基板的黑矩阵对应的上方, 例如, 可以设置 4~5个像素对应一个条 形电极 4。
根据本发明进一步方面的实施例,提供一种光栅的制造方法,如图 8所示, 所述制造方法包括如下步骤:
步骤 101、 在第二基板上形成多个间隔排布的条形电极;
步骤 102、 在每个所述条形电极上形成导电凸起部以及覆盖所述导电凸起 部的亲疏水转换材料层, 所述导电凸起部及亲疏水转换材料层形成挡墙;
步骤 103、 在每两个相邻的挡墙之间设置非极性液体层以及极性液体层; 步骤 104、 在第一基板上形成板式电极;
步骤 105、 将所述第一基板和所述第二基板进行真空对盒。
需要说明的是, 步骤 104可以与步骤 101〜步骤 103并列执行,也可以在步 骤 101之前执行,但只要在将第一基板和所述第二基板进行真空对盒之前分别 对第一基板和第二基板制作完成即可。 在进一步的实施例中, 在将所述第一基板和所述第二基板进行真空对盒之 前, 在第一基板上形成板式电极的步骤中, 进一步还包括: 在所述板式电极上 形成疏水层, 使得所述疏水层与极性液体层接触。
在另一种实施例中, 在将所述第一基板和所述第二基板进行真空对盒之 前, 在第一基板上形成板式电极的步骤中, 进一步在所述板式电极上形成亲水 层, 使得所述亲水层与非极性液体层接触。
在一种实施例中, 在每个所述条形电极上形成导电凸起部的步骤中, 由金 属材料形成所述金属导电凸起部。 在一种可替换的实施例中, 在每个所述条形 电极上形成支撑凸起部, 并在所述支撑凸起部上覆盖导电层, 使得所述导电层 与所述条形电极电连接。
以图 2中所示实施例的光栅为例, 制作光栅的具体的工艺流程如下: 第一基板制作工艺: 可以釆用溅射沉积的方法在第一基板上形成板式电 极, 形成板式电极材质例如可以为 ITO或 IZO等透明导电层, 厚度一般在 400 埃〜 2000埃, 衬底基板选为玻璃基板;
第二基板制作工艺: 在第二基板上形成条形电极的步骤中, 可以釆用金属 作为条形电极; 在以金属制作条形电极的情况下, 首先沉积金属层, 厚度一般 在几百埃左右, 然后通过掩模构图工艺 (掩模构图工艺通常包括清洗、 成膜、 涂布光阻剂、 曝光、 显影、 干刻或湿刻、 光阻剂剥离等工序)形成多个间隔排 列的条形电极;
之后, 在形成的条形的金属电极的对应区域上制作导电凸起部, 在导电凸 起部由金属材料制成的情况下,通过溅射工艺或电镀工艺形成一定厚度的金属 层, 再使用掩膜构图工艺对金属层进行图案化处理, 该掩膜构图工艺中采用干 刻的方法, 通过控制蚀刻速率, 最终形成具有一定角度的金属导电凸起部, 本 领域技术人员可根据工艺和设备能力设定工艺参数形成金属导电凸起部;
在导电凸起部包括支撑凸起部及覆盖支撑凸起部的导电层的情况下, 在制 作完成条形电极的第二基板上涂覆氮化硅(SiNx )层, 经过曝光、 干刻等工艺 形成支撑凸起部, 支撑凸起部的底部宽度不超过第二基板上的图形化的条形电 极的线宽, 在支撑凸起部上沉积一层导电层, 例如导电层可以为金属层, 沉积 的金属层与条形电极电导通, 这种方法有助于降低金属层的厚度, 提高生产效 率;
之后, 在形成导电凸起部的第二基板上涂覆亲疏水转换材料层, 例如涂覆
16-巯基十六酸( 16-Mercaptohexadecanoic acid, 简称 MHA ), 在形成导电凸起 部的第二基板上涂覆 MHA, MHA与导电凸起部进行自结合, 形成挡墙, 通过 干刻工艺将不需要的区域蚀刻掉, 只保留导电凸起部的表面的 MHA部分; 之后, 在第二基板上形成围坝, 围坝一般采用封框胶, 围坝涂覆于第二基 板四周, 对器件起到封装作用, 通过涂胶头涂布于第二基板四周, 在滴注非极 性液体层的液体和极性液体层的液体后, 与第一基板进行真空对盒, 并对封框 胶进行光固化封装处理后得到光栅, 也可称为 2D/3D切换控制屏。
而对于显示装置, 只需将 2D/3D切换控制屏与显示器用光学胶贴合, 完成 显示装置的制作。 明的精神和范围。 这样, 倘若本发明的这些修改和变型属于本发明权利要求及 其等同技术的范围之内, 则本发明也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。
