下面结合附图和实施例对本申请作进一步说明。
如图1和图2所示,本申请实施例提供了一种显示装置1,包括显示面板2和位于显示面板2一侧的背光模组3;显示面板2包括子像素4和围绕子像素4设置的遮光层5,遮光层5靠近背光模组3的一侧设有反射型纳米光栅6;背光模组3向显示面板2提供的背光源在显示面板2内被转换为偏振光;反射型纳米光栅6的光栅方向与射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向之间的夹角小于90°,以将射向反射型纳米光栅6的至少部分偏振光反射回背光模组3,且背光模组3将反射回的偏振光消偏后循环再利用。
具体的,反射型纳米光栅6为亚波长光栅结构,所谓亚波长光栅是指光栅周期远小于入射光波长的光栅,如图3所示,亚波长光栅结构对于横向磁场(Transverse Magnetic,TM)和横向电场(Transverse Electric,TE)态光场具有很高的消光比,能够显著地透过垂直于金属线(光栅)排列方向的TM偏振光(即p 光)而反射平行于金属线排列方向的TE偏振光(即s 光),使得亚波长光栅结构可以作为具有高反射率的反射结构使用;反射型纳米光栅6的材料包括金属。
具体的,子像素4包括红色子像素、绿色子像素和蓝色子像素;遮光层5包括BM层。
具体的,显示面板2还包括相对设置的第一基板7和第二基板8,设置在第一基板7和第二基板8之间的液晶层9,与子像素4对应设置的上偏光单元10,下偏光单元11,保护层12和TFT(Thin Film Transistor,薄膜晶体管)阵列层13;其中,子像素4和遮光层5位于第一基板7靠近液晶层9的一侧,保护层12覆盖在子像素4、遮光层5和反射型纳米光栅6上,上偏光单元10位于保护层12上,TFT阵列层13位于第二基板8靠近液晶层9的一侧,下偏光单元11位于第二基板8远离第一基板7的一侧,背光模组3位于下偏光单元11远离第二基板8的一侧,上偏光单元10和下偏光单元11的透光轴相互垂直。需要说明的是,将下偏光单元11设置在第二基板8远离第一基板7侧,下偏光单元11可以将未透过的光源反射回背光模组3重新再利用,从而提高了显示装置1的光能利用率。当然,上偏光单元10还可以设置在第一基板7远离液晶层9的一侧,下偏光单元11还可以设置在第二基板8远离背光模组3的一侧,此处不做限制。
具体的,第一基板7为彩膜基板的衬底基板,对应的第二基板8为阵列基板的衬底基板,当然,本申请的反射型纳米光栅6还可以应用在COA(CF on Array,彩色滤光片贴附于阵列基板侧)型显示面板2的遮光层5上。
具体的,背光模组3向显示面板2提供的背光源经第二基板8上的下偏光单元11转换为具有第一偏振方向的偏振光,第一偏振方向的偏振光从第二基板8侧进入液晶层9,并被液晶层9电调制,经电调制后的偏振光偏振方向为第二偏振方向(第一偏振方向与第二偏振方向垂直),第二偏振方向的偏振光射向第一基板7侧的上偏光单元10和遮光层5上的反射型纳米光栅6,本申请实施例中所提到的显示面板2内射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光均是指经过液晶层9电调节后的具有第二偏振方向的偏振光;上偏光单元10用于将电调制后的偏振光解析,以形成明暗对比,从而产生显示画面,故穿过上偏光单元10的透射光将射向对应的子像素4,产生有颜色的显示画面;射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光至少部分被反射,反射的偏振光依次穿过液晶层9和下偏光单元11后射向背光模组3,背光模组3将反射回的偏振光消偏后,通过背光模组3中的反射层反射回第二基板8侧的下偏光单元11,从而再次进入显示面板2被利用。
本实施例中,在显示面板2的遮光层5上设置了具有反光作用的反射型纳米光栅6,可以将显示面板2内射向反射型纳米光栅6的至少部分偏振光反射回背光模组3,且背光模组3将反射回的偏振光消偏后循环再利用,避免了这部分偏振光被遮光层5吸收,提高了显示装置1的光能利用率。
在一实施例中,遮光层5在垂直于显示面板2方向上的投影面积等于反射型纳米光栅6在垂直于显示面板2方向上的投影面积。也就是说,遮光层5的边缘与反射型纳米光栅6的边缘的大小和形状完全相同。
本实施例中,射向遮光层5方向的偏振光可以全部射到遮光层5上的反射型纳米光栅6上,并经反射型纳米光栅6反射回背光模组3再利用,避免了部分射向遮光层5方向的偏振光直接射到遮光层5上被吸收,从而增大了光能利用率。当然,遮光层5在垂直于显示面板2方向上的投影面积还可以大于反射型纳米光栅6在垂直于显示面板2方向上的投影面积,但会导致部分射向遮光层5方向的偏振光直接射到遮光层5上被吸收,光能利用率无法达到较佳状态。
在一实施例中,子像素4部分覆盖在反射型纳米光栅6的边缘上。
具体的,显示面板2包括多个呈阵列分布的子像素4,遮光层5围绕每个子像素4设置,每个子像素4部分覆盖在相邻的遮光层5上的反射型纳米光栅6的边缘上。
具体的,显示面板2制备的时候,先在第一基板7上形成遮光层5,其中,遮光层5设有开口区和非开口区,开口区裸露出第一基板7,然后在遮光层5的非开口区形成反射型纳米光栅6,然后在遮光层5的开口区形成子像素4。
本实施例中,子像素4与反射型纳米光栅6的边缘部分重叠,当每个子像素4分别设有对应的上偏光单元10时,上偏光单元10与反射型纳米光栅6在垂直于显示面板2方向上的投影重叠,保证了经液晶层9电调制后的偏振光一部分射向上偏光单元10用于正常显示,另一部分射向反射型纳米光栅6被反射回重新再利用,射向上偏光单元10与反射型纳米光栅6的叠加位置的偏振光仍然会被反射型纳米光栅6反射回,避免了部分偏振光从上偏光单元10与反射型纳米光栅6之间透过产生杂光而影响显示面板2的显示效果;另外,子像素4与反射型纳米光栅6的边缘部分重叠,保证了子像素4与遮光层5在垂直于显示面板2的方向上部分叠加,保证了遮光效果。
在一实施例中,上偏光单元10的透光轴与反射型纳米光栅6的透光轴的夹角大于0°。本实施例中,反射型纳米光栅6用于反射经液晶层9电调节后且射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光,而上偏光单元10则允许经液晶层9电调节后且射向上偏光单元10的偏振光透过,由于射向上偏光单元10的偏振光和射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向相同,故上偏光单元10的透光轴与反射型纳米光栅6的透光轴的夹角大于0°,避免了上偏光单元10的透光轴与反射型纳米光栅6的透光轴平行,保证了上偏光单元10的偏光效果和反射型纳米光栅6的反射效果。
本申请实施例还提供了一种显示装置1,与上述实施例不同的在于,反射型纳米光栅6的光栅方向与显示面板2内射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向互相平行(即反射型纳米光栅6的透光轴与显示面板2内射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向互相垂直)。
本实施例中,由于纳米光栅结构具有高效的选择性透过TM 偏振的光分量,而反射掉TE偏振的光分量的特性,故反射型纳米光栅6的光栅方向与射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向互相平行可以提高反射效果,实现高反射率,从而进一步提高显示装置1的光能利用率。
在一实施例中,反射型纳米光栅6的透光轴与上偏光单元10的透光轴互相垂直,即上偏光单元10的透光轴与射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向互相平行,保证了射向上偏光单元10的偏振光透过上偏光单元10时具有高透射率,因此,本申请实施例使得射向上偏光单元10的偏振光具有高透射率,且射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光具有高反射率,既实现了较佳的偏光效果,也实现了较佳的反光效果,在保证显示装置1的显示效果的基础上提高了光能利用率。
如图4所示,本申请实施例还提供了一种显示装置1,与上述实施例不同的在于,上偏光单元10包括透射型纳米光栅;透射型纳米光栅的光栅方向与显示面板2内射向反射型纳米光栅6的偏振光的偏振方向互相垂直。
具体的,下偏光单元11可以是普通的偏光片,也可以是纳米光栅结构,且可以是和上偏光单元10的光栅结构相同的纳米光栅结构,上偏光单元10的透光轴与下偏光单元11的透光轴相互垂直,保证良好的偏光效果。
本实施例中,由于纳米光栅结构具有高效的选择性透过TM 偏振的光分量,而反射掉TE偏振的光分量的特性,采用透射型纳米光栅作为上偏光单元10,可以提高偏振光在上偏光单元10处的透射率,提高了显示装置1的光能利用率。
在一实施例中,反射型纳米光栅6与透射型纳米光栅(上偏光单元10)的光栅周期、光栅占空比和光栅高度相同。
具体的,反射型纳米光栅6与透射型纳米光栅的透光轴相互垂直,即反射型纳米光栅6与透射型纳米光栅的光栅方向相互垂直,例如反射型纳米光栅6的光栅方向为水平方向,则透射型纳米光栅的光栅方向为垂直方向。
本实施例中,上偏光单元10与反射型纳米光栅6的光栅结构相同,因此,二者可以采用相同的制作工艺制得,提高了生产效率,有利于节约生产成本。
综上所述,虽然本申请已以优选实施例揭露如上,但上述优选实施例并非用以限制本申请,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本申请的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本申请的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
