具体实施方式
为使本公开的上述目的、特征和优点能够更加明显易懂,下面将结合本公开实施例中的附图,对本公开实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于 本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其它实施例,均属于本公开保护的范围。
对于液晶材料在太赫兹频段的介电常数的测量,相关技术中通过将液晶灌注到一个由太赫兹半透膜构成的谐振腔体中,之后利用太赫兹波照射该腔体,根据该腔体的透射特性确定其谐振频率,继而反推其中灌注的液晶的介电常数。上述测量方法存在许多不足,例如(1)谐振腔的品质因数比较低,因此测量灵敏度低、测量精度低;(2)测量装置由太赫兹半透膜、额外的偏置电极、配向膜、液晶层结构至少四部分构成,结构复杂,成本高;(3)液晶层厚度很厚,并且测量过程中需要利用偏置电极和配向膜改变液晶分子指向,在种情况下液晶的反应速度很慢,因此测量时间很长,效率低下等。
本公开的实施例提出了一种液晶介电常数的测量装置,参考图1和图2,所述测量装置包括:相对设置的第一基板1和第二基板2;和设置于所述第一基板朝向所述第二基板一面上的谐振结构层5;其中,在第一基板1和第二基板2之间限定有用于容纳待测量的液晶的空腔8。在本实施例中,谐振结构层5能够在输入电信号的时候输出平面电场,从而控制液晶的取向,从而本实施例的测量装置仅需包括一层谐振结构层5即可以实现对液晶介电常数的测量。在本实施例中,谐振结构层5可以包括分离的至少两个导电电极或金属线或金属块,这些导电电极或金属线或金属块的形状和布置方式可以是多种多样,只需要至少两个电极是分离的则在至少两个电极之间构成平面电场,平面电场可以影响附近的液晶的取向和排布。
本公开的实施例提出了一种液晶介电常数的测量装置,如图1和图2所示,测量装置100包括:相对设置的第一基板1和第二基板2;设置于第一基板1朝向第二基板2一面上的谐振结构层5及第一配向膜3;设置于第二基板2朝向第一基板1一面上的第二配向膜4;其中,所述第一基板和所述第二基板限定位于两者之间的空腔8。在本实施例中,例如如图2所示,谐振结构层5位于第一基板1朝向第二基板2一面上,同时第一配向膜3也可以位于第一基板1朝向第二基板2一面上,谐振结构层5可以看作位于第一配向膜3内。然而,在其他实施例中,并不必需如此。设置配向膜并不是必需的,然而,设置配向膜可以 进一步帮助液晶取向,改善液晶取向的性能。
在一个实施例中,所述第一基板和所述第二基板之间可以设置边框6,边框6配合第一基板1和第二基板2限定空腔8,该空腔8用以容纳待测量的液晶200,边框6的作用为防止液晶200泄露,且维持第一基板1和第二基板2之间的间隙,为置于第一基板1和第二基板2之间的液晶200提供支撑空间。当使用上述测量装置100对液晶的介电常数进行测量时,将待测量的液晶200注入测量装置100的第一基板1与第二基板2之间的空腔8内。液晶200注入后,第一基板1上的第一配向膜3和第二基板2上的第二配向膜4与液晶200直接接触,对液晶200分子的指向进行配向。之后即可开始进行测量。
需要说明的是,本公开的实施例中,测量装置100所确定的平面(也可以视为第一基板1或第二基板2所确定的平面)为XOY平面;垂直于测量装置100所确定的平面(即XOY平面)且由第一基板1指向第二基板2的方向为Z方向。
上述液晶介电常数的测量装置中,在第二基板的一面形成有谐振结构层,当将待测量的液晶注入该测量装置中,测量时,采用太赫兹电磁波沿Z方向或Z方向的反方向照射该测量装置100,太赫兹电磁波能够与谐振结构层5中的谐振结构发生耦合,产生谐振,同时液晶200各向异性的介电常数会对所产生的谐振产生不同的影响,这种影响能够通过透射出测量装置100的透射波强度随频率的变化曲线反映出来,从而根据该透射波强度随频率的变化曲线能够得出液晶200长轴方向的介电常数和短轴方向的介电常数,实现了对液晶200在太赫兹频段的介电常数的测量。
利用上述测量装置100测量液晶200在太赫兹频段的介电常数,所得到的透射波强度随频率的变化曲线具有非常明显的谐振尖峰,谐振很强,这说明谐振结构层5中的谐振结构的品质因数极高,因此该测试装置100的灵敏度高,测量精度高;并且,上述测量装置100不需要制作偏置电极,谐振结构层5中的谐振结构无需连接任何信号线,没有任何接地电极,也就是说谐振结构的工作是完全不需要施加控制电场的,因此上述测量装置100的结构简单,造价低廉;此外,上述测量装置进行测量的过程十分简单,不需要液晶200响应控制电场进行偏转,因此测量速度快,效率高。
在上述测量装置100中,谐振结构层5的结构设计对于测量的精度和灵敏度的影响十分重要,下面示例性的给出一些可能的设计的实施例。
请参见图3,谐振结构层5可包括至少两组复合谐振结构50,各组复合谐振结构50间隔设置,以实现相互绝缘,从而使每组复合谐振结构50均能够与入射的太赫兹电磁波发生耦合,产生谐振,并且多组复合谐振结构50之间可相互影响,增强谐振。
例如,图3中包括四组复合谐振结构50。每组复合谐振结构50包括间隔设置的主谐振结构51和从谐振结构52,主谐振结构51和从谐振结构52之间相互绝缘。当太赫兹电磁波入射后,会与主谐振结构51发生耦合,主谐振结构51产生感应电磁场,该感应电磁场会使从谐振结构52产生电磁感应信号,该电磁感应信号又会反过来影响主谐振结构上的感应电磁场;并且,在某些情况下,入射的太赫兹电磁波会既与主谐振结构51发生耦合,又与从谐振结构52发生耦合;通过主谐振结构51和从谐振结构52之间的相互感应和耦合,可以提高谐振的品质因数,有利于增强测量的精度和灵敏度。
请继续参见图3,谐振结构层5的四组复合谐振结构50可围绕一垂直于第一基板1所在平面的轴线M(平行于Z方向)的周向等间隔设置,且各组复合谐振结构50到轴线M的最短距离相等,换句话说,各组所述复合谐振结构50相对于所述轴线M与第一基板的交点中心对称地分布。这样使得谐振结构层5中复合谐振结构50呈均匀、对称的形式布置,有利于提高品质因数。需要说明的是,由于轴线M垂直于XOY平面,因此图3中所示出的轴线M仅为一点。
根据本公开的实施例,对于规则形状的测量装置,轴线M可过测量装置的中心,这样复合谐振结构50以测量装置的中心为参考点呈均匀、对称的形式布置,有利于提高品质因数。
每组复合谐振结构50中,主谐振结构51和从谐振结构52各自的结构,及二者之间的相对位置关系不局限于例如图3示出的这一种。作为一种可能的实施例,如图3所示,每组复合谐振结构50中,主谐振结构51包括一条主金属带条,从谐振结构52包括至少两条从金属带条,从金属带条垂直于主金属带条,且从金属带条相对于主金属带条的垂直平分线对称地布置。进一步的,从金属 带条的长度可小于主金属带条的长度,从金属带条的宽度可小于主金属带条的宽度,以使二者之间的主从关系更加明显。
下面给出一种具体的示例,请再次参见图3,谐振结构层5包括四组复合谐振结构50,分别编号为a、b、c、d。四组复合谐振结构a、b、c、d围绕一轴线M(该轴线M垂直于第一基板1,即垂直于XOY平面)的周向等间隔设置,且各组复合谐振结构到轴线M的最短距离相等。每组复合谐振结构中,主谐振结构51包括一条主金属带条,从谐振结构52包括两条从金属带条,从金属带条垂直于主金属带条,且两条金属带条相对于主金属带条的垂直平分线对称布置;从金属带条位于主金属带条的远离轴线M的一侧。各组复合谐振结构到轴线M的最短距离相等,意味着各组复合谐振结构的主金属带条到轴线M的垂直距离相等,或各组复合谐振结构相对于轴线M中心对称地分布;复合谐振结构a与复合谐振结构c关于轴线M对称布置或呈镜像对称布置,复合谐振结构b与复合谐振结构d关于轴线M对称布置或呈镜像对称布置。通过上述结构设计,可以使谐振结构层5的谐振结构达到很高的品质因数。
对于上述谐振结构层5的各项尺寸设计,不同尺寸规格的测量装置应有不同的尺寸设计方案。
在一个实施例中,测量装置100的一组边平行于X方向,另一组边平行于Y方向。测量装置100的谐振结构层5中复合谐振结构a与复合谐振结构c的主金属带条51平行于X方向,从金属带条52平行于Y方向;复合谐振结构b与复合谐振结构d的主金属带条51平行于Y方向,从金属带条52平行于X方向。复合谐振结构a、b、c、d围绕轴线M布置,轴线过第一基板1的中心。
请参见图4,根据本公开的实施例的谐振结构层5所对应的液晶层7在XOY平面上的正投影的边长P的取值范围可为510μm~810μm。例如在一个实施例中可以为660μm。
呈镜像对称布置的复合谐振结构a与复合谐振结构c的主金属带条51之间的间距D的取值范围可为110μm~310μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为210μm。同样的,呈镜像对称布置的复合谐振结构b与复合谐振结构d的主金属带条51之间的间距D的取值范围也可为110μm~310μm,例如在一个实施例中可以 为210μm。
根据本公开的实施例,每个复合谐振结构中,主金属带条51的长度L1的取值范围可为78μm~178μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为128μm,宽度W1的取值范围可为25μm~75μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为50μm;从金属带条52的长度L2的取值范围可为50μm~150μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为100μm,宽度W2的取值范围可为15μm~45μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为30μm;主金属带条51与从金属带条52之间的间隙d的取值范围可为25μm~75μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为50μm;两条从金属带条52之间的间距S的取值范围可为15μm~45μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为30μm。
本实施例中,谐振结构层5的材料为导电材料。例如在一个实施例中,谐振结构层5的材料为金属,例如:金、银、铜、铝等金属。
谐振结构层5的厚度的取值范围可为0.01μm~5μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为1μm。
在一个实施例中,谐振结构层5的制备过程可包括:首先采用谐振结构材料形成具有设计厚度的一整层的薄膜,然后采用光刻工艺去除所形成的薄膜中的特定部分,保留部分形成所需要的谐振结构。
第一基板1与第二基本2之间所形成的空腔8的厚的取值范围度,也可视为所注入的液晶层7的厚度的取值范围可为3μm~500μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为50μm。
第一基板1和第二基板2的厚度的取值范围可为100μm~1000μm,例如在一个实施例中可以为160μm。第一基板1和第二基板2的介电常数的取值范围可为1.1~20,例如在一个实施例中可以为3.8。
第一配向膜3和第二配向膜4的配向方向可一致,以使得待测量液晶在注入到测量装置100的空腔8中后具有均匀一致的取向。第一配向膜3和第二配向膜4的配向方向,也即待测量液晶的取向(此处所述的取向特指液晶分子长轴的指向),可沿X方向,或沿Y方向,或沿XOY平面上的其它任一方向。
边框6的材料可以选用封框胶。在一些实施例中,可在边框6上设置一液晶注入口9(参见图1和图2),当使用上述测量装置100对液晶的介电常数进 行测量时,首先将待测量的液晶200通过该液晶注入口9注入上述空腔8中,继而可开始介电常数的测量工作。需要说明的是,在注入液晶200后,可采用边框材料(诸如封框胶)将液晶注入口9进行封堵,以防止所注入的液晶200在测量过程中泄露。在一些实施例中,液晶注入口9可以设计的很小,这样在注入液晶200后可以不对液晶注入口9封堵,也不会引起液晶的泄露。
以上是对本公开所提出的液晶介电常数的测量装置100的结构的介绍,下面对采用上述液晶介电常数的测量装置100对液晶在太赫兹频段的介电常数的测量方法进行介绍。
下面参照图5,描述根据本公开的实施例的液晶介电常数的测量方法,包括如下步骤。
S1:准备包含待测量液晶的测量装置,该测量装置为如本公开实施例所述的液晶介电常数的测量装置。
在上述步骤中,可将待测量的液晶注入测量装置的空腔8中,完成准备工作。
S21:使用太赫兹电磁波沿垂直于测量装置平面的方向照射测量装置,且使太赫兹电磁波的极化方向与测量装置中液晶的长轴相平行,接收透过测量装置的太赫兹电磁波,获得透射波强度随频率变化的第一曲线。
在上述步骤中,示例性的,如图8所示,假设测量装置中液晶200的取向方向(特指长轴的取向方向)平行于X方向,则在放置测量装置100时,应使液晶100的长轴与太赫兹电磁波的极化方向相一致,均平行于X方向。使用太赫兹电磁波沿-Z方向照射测量装置100。
当入射太赫兹电磁波与测量装置100中的谐振结构发生耦合,产生谐振时,由于液晶100的长轴与太赫兹电磁波的极化方向相一致,因此液晶100长轴方向的介电常数会对谐振产生影响。参见图9,在测量装置100的第二基板2一侧接收到太赫兹电磁波的透射波,可得到透射波强度随频率变化的第一曲线。需要说明的是,图9中纵轴以传输系数表征透射波强度。从第一曲线中可以看出,在横轴568GHz附近有个明显的谐振尖峰,这是由于液晶100长轴方向的介电常数引起的。值得一提的是,第一曲线在谐振尖峰处的谐振很强,品质因数极高, 这意味着该测试装置100具有极高的精准性。
S22:使用太赫兹电磁波沿垂直于所述测量装置平面的方向照射所述测量装置,且使所述太赫兹电磁波的极化方向与所述测量装置中液晶的长轴相垂直,接收透过所述测量装置的太赫兹电磁波,获得透射波强度随频率变化的第二曲线。
在上述步骤中,示例性的,如图7所示,假设测量装置中液晶200的取向方向(特指长轴的取向方向)平行于X方向,则在放置测量装置100时,应使液晶100的长轴与太赫兹电磁波的极化方向相垂直,以使液晶100的短轴与太赫兹电磁波的极化方向相一致,均平行于Y方向。使用太赫兹电磁波沿-Z方向照射测量装置100。
当入射太赫兹电磁波与测量装置100中的谐振结构发生耦合,产生谐振时,由于液晶100的短轴与太赫兹电磁波的极化方向相一致,因此液晶100短轴方向的介电常数会对谐振产生影响。请参见图9,在测量装置100的第二基板2一侧接收到太赫兹电磁波的透射波,可得到透射波强度随频率变化的第二曲线。从第二曲线中可以看出,在横轴542GHz附近有个明显的谐振尖峰,这是由于液晶100短轴方向的介电常数引起的。值得一提的是,第二曲线在谐振尖峰处的谐振很强,品质因数极高,这意味着该测试装置100具有极高的精准性。
需要说明的是,上述步骤S21与S22在实际执行时并不限定先后次序,可以先执行步骤S21,再执行步骤S22,并且,在执行步骤S22前,无需调整用于发射太赫兹电磁波的波源的位置和用于接收太赫兹电磁波的透射波的信号接收器的位置,仅需将测量装置100在XOY平面上旋转90°即可。相类似的,可以先执行步骤S22,再执行步骤S21,并且,在执行步骤S21前,无需调整用于发射太赫兹电磁波的波源的位置和用于接收太赫兹电磁波的透射波的信号接收器的位置,仅需将测量装置100在XOY平面上旋转90°即可。

S32:基于第二曲线找出所述第二曲线所匹配的液晶介电常数,将该介电常数作为液晶短轴方向的介电常数。有多种方法能够基于第二曲线得出所述第二曲线所匹配的液晶介电常数。根据本公开的一个实施例,采用模拟仿真方法基于所述第二曲线找出所述第二曲线所匹配的液晶介电常数,将该介电常数作为液晶长轴方向的介电常数。
