Description

명암비 개선 광학 필름Contrast improvement optical film
본 발명은 광학 필름에 관한 것이다. 상세하게는, 본 발명은 측면 휘도를 높여 시야각을 개선할 수 있는 광학 필름에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an optical film. Specifically, the present invention relates to an optical film capable of improving a viewing angle by increasing side brightness.
액정 표시장치는 백라이트 유닛에서 나온 광이 액정 패널을 통해 출사됨으로써 작동한다. 액정 표시장치에서, 화면의 정면에서는 휘도(Luminance)와 명암비(Contrast Ratio)가 높지만, 측면에서는 휘도와 명암비가 떨어진다. 표시 장치에서는 명암비가 높아야 화면의 밝고 어두운 부분을 세세히 표현할 수 있고, 그 결과로서 우수한 화질을 구현할 수 있다. The liquid crystal display operates by emitting light from the backlight unit through the liquid crystal panel. In a liquid crystal display, luminance and contrast ratio are high on the front side of the screen, but luminance and contrast ratio are low on the side surface. In the display device, the bright and dark parts of the screen can be expressed in detail only when the contrast ratio is high, and as a result, excellent image quality can be realized.
최근, 액정 표시장치의 화면이 커지면서, 정면 뿐만 아니라 측면 화질도 중요해 지고 있다. 그래서, 화면의 측면에서 높은 휘도와 명암비를 구현하려는 노력이 지속되고 있다. Recently, as the screen of the liquid crystal display becomes larger, image quality from the front as well as the side has become important. Therefore, efforts to realize high luminance and contrast ratio in the aspect of the screen are continuing.
액정 표시장치는 제1 편광판, 액정 패널, 제2 편광판을 적층한 구조의 적층판을 포함할 수 있다. 제1 편광판은 액정 패널의 하부에 결합하여 입사 광을 편광시킬 수 있다. 액정 패널은 제1 편광판과 제2 편광판 사이에 결합하여 제1 편광판으로부터 입사되는 광을 제2 편광판으로 투과시키는 것으로, 표시 매체인 액정층을 포함할 수 있다. 제2 편광판은 액정 패널의 상부에 결합하여 액정패널을 통과하는 광을 편광 및 확산시킴으로써 측면의 휘도, 명암비를 높일 수 있다. 제2 편광판은 편광자, 광학 필름, 보호층 등을 적층한 구조일 수 있다.The liquid crystal display device may include a laminate having a structure in which a first polarizing plate, a liquid crystal panel, and a second polarizing plate are stacked. The first polarizer may be coupled to a lower portion of the liquid crystal panel to polarize incident light. The liquid crystal panel is coupled between the first polarizing plate and the second polarizing plate to transmit light incident from the first polarizing plate to the second polarizing plate, and may include a liquid crystal layer as a display medium. The second polarizing plate is coupled to the upper portion of the liquid crystal panel to polarize and diffuse light passing through the liquid crystal panel, thereby increasing the luminance and contrast ratio of the side surface. The second polarizing plate may have a structure in which a polarizer, an optical film, a protective layer, and the like are stacked.
도 1a,1b는 편광판에 사용되는 종래의 광학 필름을 도시하는 단면도이다. 1A and 1B are cross-sectional views showing a conventional optical film used for a polarizing plate.
도 1a,1b에 도시한 바와 같이, 종래의 광학 필름(110,120)은 고굴절층(111,121)과 저굴절층(112,122)을 적층하여 구성할 수 있다. 고굴절층(111,121)은 함몰 형태의 음각 패턴을 구비할 수 있다. 음각 패턴은 함몰 평탄부(F1,F2)와 고굴절층(111,121)의 일면 사이에 경사부(S1,S2)를 구비하고 있다. 경사부(S1,S2)는, 도 1a의 도시와 같이, 직선 형태(S1)로 구성하고 있다. 또는, 경사부(S1,S2)는, 도 1b의 도시와 같이, 저굴절층(122)에서 고굴절층(121)으로 함몰되는(휘어지는), 즉 함몰 곡면 경사부(S2)로 구성하고 있다.As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B , the conventional optical films 110 and 120 may be configured by laminating high refractive index layers 111 and 121 and low refractive index layers 112 and 122 . The high refractive index layers 111 and 121 may have a recessed engraved pattern. The engraved pattern includes inclined portions S1 and S2 between the depressed flat portions F1 and F2 and one surface of the high refractive index layers 111 and 121 . The inclined portions S1 and S2 are configured in a straight line form S1 as shown in FIG. 1A . Alternatively, the inclined portions S1 and S2, as shown in FIG. 1B , are recessed (bent) from the low refractive layer 122 to the high refractive index layer 121, that is, are formed of a recessed curved inclined portion S2.
그런데, 도 1a,1b와 같이, 고굴절층의 음각 패턴을 직선(S1)이나 함몰 곡면 경사부(S2)로 형성하면, 구현 제품(표시 장치)에서 정면 상대 휘도(광학 필름을 결합하지 않은 상태의 정면 휘도를 기준으로 하는 상대 휘도) 및 60° 측면 상대 휘도(정면 상대 휘도를 기준으로 하는 상대 휘도)의 고품질 기준값(정면 상대 휘도는 92% 이상, 60° 측면 상대 휘도는 정면 상대 휘도의 14% 이상)을 충족시키기가 쉽지 않다. 그 결과, 현재 사용되는 표시 장치에서는, 정면 상대 휘도를 90% 이상, 60° 측면 상대 휘도를 13% 이상을 요구하고 있다.By the way, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B , when the engraved pattern of the high refractive index layer is formed as a straight line ( S1 ) or a recessed curved inclined portion ( S2 ), the front relative luminance (in the state in which the optical film is not combined) in the implemented product (display device) High-quality reference values (relative luminance relative to the front luminance) and 60° side relative luminance (relative luminance relative to the front relative luminance) of 92% or higher (front relative luminance is 92% or more, 60° side relative luminance is 14% of front relative luminance) above) is not easy to satisfy. As a result, the presently used display device requires 90% or more of the front relative luminance and 13% or more of the 60° side relative luminance.
그렇지만, 현장에서는 광학 필름의 재질이나 음각 패턴 등을 개선하여, 정면 상대 휘도를 92% 이상, 60° 측면 상대 휘도를 14% 이상으로 끌어올리려는 노력을 지속하고 있다.However, in the field, efforts are being made to improve the material and engraving pattern of the optical film to raise the relative luminance of the front to 92% or more and the relative luminance of the 60° side to 14% or more.
본 발명은 광학 필름의 고굴절층에 형성되는 음각 패턴의 형상을 개선하여, 정면 상대 휘도를 92% 이상, 60° 측면 상대 휘도를 14% 이상으로 높이는 것을 목적으로 한다.An object of the present invention is to improve the shape of the intaglio pattern formed on the high refractive index layer of the optical film, and to increase the front relative luminance to 92% or more and the 60° side relative luminance to 14% or more.
이러한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름은, 일면에 음각 패턴을 이격시켜 다수를 구비하는 고굴절층과 고굴절층의 일면에서 음각 패턴을 충전하면서 결합하는 저굴절층을 포함할 수 있다.Contrast ratio improvement optical film of the present invention for achieving this object, a low refractive layer coupled while filling the intaglio pattern on one surface of the high refractive index layer and the high refractive layer having a plurality of spaced apart intaglio patterns on one surface may include.
명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 음각 패턴은 함몰 평탄부와 돌출 곡면 경사부를 포함할 수 있다. 함몰 평탄부는 중앙 영역에 함몰되어 수평으로 형성될 수 있다. 돌출 곡면 경사부는 함몰 평탄부와 고굴절층의 일면 사이에 고굴절층에서 저굴절층으로 돌출하면서 곡면 형태로 경사질 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film, the engraved pattern may include a concave flat portion and a protruding curved inclined portion. The depression flat portion may be formed horizontally by being depressed in the central region. The protruding curved inclined portion may be inclined in a curved shape while protruding from the high refractive index layer to the low refractive index layer between the depressed flat portion and one surface of the high refractive index layer.
본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 돌출 곡면 경사부는 50~150㎛의 곡률반경을 가질 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film of the present invention, the protruding curved inclined portion may have a radius of curvature of 50 to 150 μm.
본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 음각 패턴은 장폭을 10~20㎛, 단폭을 5~15㎛로 구성할 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film of the present invention, the intaglio pattern may have a long width of 10 to 20 μm and a short width of 5 to 15 μm.
본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 정면 상대 휘도는 광학 필름을 적층하기 전 정면 휘도의 92% 이상이고, 60° 측면 상대 휘도는 정면 상대 휘도의 14% 이상일 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film of the present invention, the front relative luminance may be 92% or more of the front luminance before laminating the optical film, and the 60° side relative luminance may be 14% or more of the front relative luminance.
본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 고굴절층은 1.57~1.70의 굴절률을 갖고, 저굴절층은 1.42~1.50의 굴절률을 가질 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film of the present invention, the high refractive layer may have a refractive index of 1.57 to 1.70, and the low refractive layer may have a refractive index of 1.42 to 1.50.
본 발명의 명암비 개선 광학 필름에서, 고굴절층과 저굴절층의 굴절률 차이는 0.07~0.28일 수 있다.In the contrast improvement optical film of the present invention, the refractive index difference between the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer may be 0.07 to 0.28.
본 발명에 따른 편광판은 위에서 설명한 명암비 개선 광학 필름을 포함할 수 있다.The polarizing plate according to the present invention may include the optical film for improving the contrast ratio described above.
본 발명에 따른 표시 장치는 위에서 설명한 편광판을 포함할 수 있다.The display device according to the present invention may include the polarizing plate described above.
이러한 구성을 갖는 본 발명은 고굴절층의 음각 패턴에서 곡면 경사부를 형성하되 고굴절층에서 저굴절층 방향으로 돌출하면서 휘어지는 형태, 즉 돌출 곡면 경사로 구성하고 있다. 이를 통해, 본 발명은 음각 패턴의 경사부를 직선, 함몰 곡면 경사로 구성하는 종래기술에 비교하여 정면 상대 휘도의 악화를 최소화하면서 60° 측면 상대 휘도를 최대화할 수 있다.In the present invention having such a configuration, a curved inclined portion is formed in the engraved pattern of the high refractive index layer, but is curved while protruding from the high refractive index layer to the low refractive index layer, that is, it is configured in a protruding curved surface inclined portion. Through this, the present invention can maximize the 60° side relative luminance while minimizing the deterioration of the frontal relative luminance compared to the prior art in which the inclined portion of the intaglio pattern is configured as a straight line or a recessed curved surface inclined.
또한, 본 발명은 돌출 곡면 경사부의 곡률반경을 50~150㎛로 구성하고 있다. 이를 통해, 본 발명은 정면 상대 휘도를 92% 이상, 60° 측면 상대 휘도를 14% 이상으로 높일 수 있다. 그 결고, 본 발명은 정면 상대 휘도 및 60° 측면 상대 휘도의 고품질 기준값을 만족시킬 수 있다.In addition, in the present invention, the radius of curvature of the inclined portion of the protruding curved surface is configured to be 50 to 150 μm. Through this, in the present invention, the relative luminance of the front surface can be increased to 92% or more and the relative luminance to the 60° side surface can be increased to 14% or more. As a result, the present invention can satisfy the high-quality reference values of the front relative luminance and the 60° side relative luminance.

이하, 첨부도면을 참조하여 본 발명을 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 2는 본 발명에 따른 광학 필름을 도시하는 단면도이다.2 is a cross-sectional view showing an optical film according to the present invention.
도 2에 도시한 바와 같이, 본 발명의 광학 필름(210)은 고굴절층(211), 저굴절층(212)을 포함하여 구성할 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 2 , the optical film 210 of the present invention may include a high refractive index layer 211 and a low refractive index layer 212 .
고굴절층(211)은 저굴절층(212)과 대향하는 면에 음각 패턴(RP)을 형성할 수 있다. 음각 패턴(RP)은 함몰 평탄부(F3)와 돌출 곡면 경사부(S3)를 포함할 수 있다.The high refractive index layer 211 may form an intaglio pattern RP on a surface opposite to the low refractive index layer 212 . The engraved pattern RP may include a depressed flat portion F3 and a protruding curved inclined portion S3 .
함몰 평탄부(F3)는 음각 패턴(RP)의 중앙 영역에서 소정 깊이(D)로 함몰되어 형성된다. 함몰 평탄부(F3)는 고굴절층(211)의 일면(도 2에서 저굴절층(212)과 결합하는 면)과 나란하게 수평으로 형성될 수 있다.The depression flat portion F3 is formed by being depressed to a predetermined depth D in the central region of the intaglio pattern RP. The depression flat portion F3 may be formed in parallel with one surface of the high refractive index layer 211 (a surface coupled to the low refractive index layer 212 in FIG. 2 ).
돌출 곡면 경사부(S3)는 함몰 평탄부(F3)의 양측 단부와 고굴절층(211)의 일면(도 2에서 저굴절층(212)과 결합하는 면) 사이를 경사지게 연결하면서 형성될 수 있다. 돌출 곡면 경사부(S3)는 고굴절층(211)에서 저굴절층(212)의 방향으로 곡면지게 돌출하는(또는 휘어지는) 형태, 즉 돌출 곡면 경사로 형성될 수 있다.The protruding curved inclined portion S3 may be formed while obliquely connecting both ends of the concave flat portion F3 and one surface of the high refractive index layer 211 (the surface coupled to the low refractive index layer 212 in FIG. 2 ). The protruding curved inclined portion S3 may be formed as a curved protruding (or curved) shape in a direction from the high refractive index layer 211 to the low refractive index layer 212 , that is, a protruding curved inclined portion.
음각 패턴(RP)은 장폭(LW)과 단폭(SW)을 5~20㎛, 깊이(D)를 5~15㎛로 할 때 광 확산 효과가 큰 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 본 발명에서는 장폭(LW)을 10~20㎛, 단폭(SW)을 5~15㎛, 깊이(D)를 5~15㎛로 먼저 설정할 수 있다. 음각 패턴(RP)은 다수를 이격시켜 형성할 수 있다.The engraved pattern (RP) is known to have a large light diffusion effect when the long width (LW) and the short width (SW) are 5 to 20 μm and the depth (D) is 5 to 15 μm. Accordingly, in the present invention, the long width (LW) can be set to 10 to 20 μm, the short width (SW) to 5 to 15 μm, and the depth (D) can be set first to 5 to 15 μm. The engraved pattern RP may be formed to be spaced apart from each other.
고굴절층(211)은 예를 들어 (메트)아크릴계, 폴리카보네이트계, 실리콘계, 에폭시계 수지 중 하나 이상을 포함하는 자외선 경화형 조성물로 구성할 수 있다. 고굴절층(211)은 1.57~1.70의 굴절률을 가질 수 있다.The high refractive index layer 211 may be formed of, for example, an ultraviolet curable composition including at least one of (meth)acrylic, polycarbonate, silicone, and epoxy resins. The high refractive index layer 211 may have a refractive index of 1.57 to 1.70.

However, in an actual product (display device), since it is preferable that the front relative luminance and the 60° side relative luminance satisfy 92% or more and 14% or more, respectively, the radius of curvature R of the protruding curved inclined portion S3 in the present invention ) is preferably limited to 50 to 150 μm. This limitation of the radius of curvature R may have a technical meaning.

위의 표 2에서 보듯이, 경사부를 직선과 함몰 곡면 경사로 구성하는 경우, 일부 실험례에서 정면 상대 휘도가 92%를 초과하였으나, 60° 측면 상대 휘도에서는 모두가 14%를 넘지 못하는 것으로 측정되었다. 한편, 경사부를 돌출 곡면 경사로 구성하는 경우에는, 위의 표 1의 결과와 동일하게, 곡률반경(R)이 50~150㎛에서 정면 상대 휘도가 92%를 넘어서고, 곡률반경(R)이 30~150㎛에서 60° 측면 상대 휘도가 14%를 넘어서는 것으로 측정되었다. 여기서도, 실제 제품에서는 정면 상대 휘도와 60° 측면 상대 휘도가 각각 92% 이상과 14% 이상을 충족하여야 하므로, 본 발명의 돌출 곡면 경사부(S3)에서 돌출 곡면의 곡률반경(R)은 50~150㎛로 한정하는 것이 바람직하다.As shown in Table 2 above, when the inclined portion is composed of a straight line and a recessed curved surface slope, the front relative luminance exceeded 92% in some experimental examples, but it was measured that all of them did not exceed 14% in the 60° side relative luminance. On the other hand, in the case of configuring the inclined portion as a protruding curved surface slope, as in the result of Table 1 above, the front relative luminance exceeds 92% at a radius of curvature (R) of 50 to 150 μm, and the radius of curvature (R) is 30 to At 150 μm, the 60° side relative luminance was measured to exceed 14%. Here too, in the actual product, since the front relative luminance and the 60° side relative luminance must satisfy 92% or more and 14% or more, respectively, the radius of curvature (R) of the protruding curved surface in the protruding curved inclined portion (S3) of the present invention is 50 to It is preferable to limit it to 150 micrometers.

위의 표 3에서 보듯이, 경사부를 직선과 함몰 곡면 경사로 구성하는 경우, 전체 실험례에서 정면 상대 휘도가 92%를 초과하였으나, 60° 측면 상대 휘도에서는 모두가 14%를 넘지 못하는 것으로 측정되었다. 한편, 경사부를 돌출 곡면 경사로 구성하는 경우에는, 위의 표 1,2의 결과와 동일하게, 곡률반경(R)이 50~150㎛에서 정면 상대 휘도가 92%를 넘고, 곡률반경(R)이 30~150㎛에서 60° 측면 상대 휘도가 14%를 넘어서는 것으로 측정되었다. 그런데, 실제 표시 장치에서 정면 상대 휘도와 60° 측면 상대 휘도는 각각 92% 이상과 14% 이상을 충족하여야 한다. 따라서, 본 발명의 돌출 곡면 경사부(S3)에서 돌출 곡면의 곡률반경(R)은 50~150㎛로 한정하는 것이 바람직하다.As shown in Table 3 above, when the inclined portion is composed of a straight line and a recessed curved surface, the front relative luminance exceeded 92% in all experimental examples, but it was measured that all of them did not exceed 14% in the 60° side relative luminance. On the other hand, when the inclined portion is composed of a protruding curved surface inclined, as in the results of Tables 1 and 2 above, the front relative luminance exceeds 92% when the radius of curvature R is 50 to 150 μm, and the radius of curvature R is It was measured that the 60° side relative luminance exceeds 14% at 30~150㎛. However, in an actual display device, the front relative luminance and the 60° side relative luminance must satisfy 92% or more and 14% or more, respectively. Therefore, it is preferable to limit the radius of curvature (R) of the protruding curved surface in the protruding curved inclined portion (S3) of the present invention to 50 ~ 150㎛.
위의 표 1~3의 결과를 종합하면, 본 발명의 광학 필름에서, 음각 패턴(RP)은 경사부를 돌출 곡면 경사로 구성하는 것이 바람직하다. 또한, 장폭(LW)을 10~20㎛, 단폭(SW)을 5~15㎛로 할 때, 돌출 곡면의 곡률반경(R)은 50~150㎛로 구성하는 것이 바람직하다.Combining the results of Tables 1 to 3 above, in the optical film of the present invention, the intaglio pattern (RP) is preferably composed of an inclined portion with a protruding curved surface inclined. In addition, when the long width (LW) is 10 to 20 μm, and the short width (SW) is 5 to 15 μm, the radius of curvature R of the protruding curved surface is preferably configured to be 50 to 150 μm.
한편, 고굴절층(211)과 저굴절층(212)의 재질(굴절률)을 바꾸면서 정면 상대 휘도와 60° 측면 상대 휘도의 변동 여부를 측정하였다. 여기서, 고굴절층(211)과 저굴절층(212)의 재질(굴절률) 변화는 위의 표 1~3의 결과, 즉 정면 상대 휘도와 60° 측면 상대 휘도의 측정값에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서, 본 발명의 광학 필름은 고굴절층(211)을 1.57~1.70의 굴절률을 갖는 재질로 사용할 수 있다. 본 발명의 광학 필름은 저굴절층(212)을 1.42~1.50의 굴절률을 갖는 재질로 사용할 수 있다. 이 경우, 고굴절층(211)과 저굴절층(212)의 굴절률 차이는 0.07~0.28일 수 있다.On the other hand, while changing the material (refractive index) of the high refractive index layer 211 and the low refractive index layer 212, it was measured whether the relative luminance of the front surface and the 60° side relative luminance fluctuated. Here, it is confirmed that the material (refractive index) change of the high refractive layer 211 and the low refractive layer 212 does not affect the results of Tables 1 to 3 above, that is, the measured values of the front relative luminance and the 60° side relative luminance. became Therefore, in the optical film of the present invention, the high refractive layer 211 may be used as a material having a refractive index of 1.57 to 1.70. The optical film of the present invention may use the low-refractive layer 212 as a material having a refractive index of 1.42 to 1.50. In this case, the refractive index difference between the high refractive index layer 211 and the low refractive index layer 212 may be 0.07 to 0.28.

By doing so, the deformable optical film 220 can minimize the thickness. As a result, it can contribute to thinning of a display device.
