为解决上述问题,业内提出了薄膜封装结构上形成彩膜(color filter on thin film encapsulation,COE)这一技术。COE是一种能够替代偏光片的新技术,通过将彩膜(color filter,CF)制作在薄膜封装(thin film encapsulation,TFE)层之上,能够将OLED面板的反射率压低至与圆偏光片相当的水平,并且将能够将OLED面板的出光效率提高至60%左右。
随着经济的发展和科技的进步,用户对电子设备的使用需求也日益提高,采用COE架构的OLED面板的出光效率虽然得到一定程度的提高,但是可能仍然难以满足用户的使用需求。当前,为了达到更高的出光亮度,就需要对OLED面板提供更多的功耗,由此降低了OLED面板的使用寿命。提供一种出光效率更高的OLED面板成为亟需解决的问题。
发明内容
本申请提供一种显示装置及电子设备,通过在显示装置内设置聚光结构来对光线进行聚拢,能够将更多的光线提取至显示装置的外侧,由此提高了显示装置的出光效率。
第一方面,提供了一种显示装置,包括:基板;发光层,设于所述基板上,所述发光层包括多个子像素;聚光层,设于所述发光层背离所述基板的一侧,所述聚光层包括多个聚光结构,所述多个聚光结构覆盖于多个所述子像素之上,所述聚光结构用于聚拢所述聚光结构所覆盖的所述子像素发出的光线。
子像素发出的光线能够通过聚光结构射向显示装置的外表面,该外表面即显示装置与外界环境的交界面,也是容易发生全反射现象的光密介质和光束介质的分界面,在聚光结构的折射作用下,至少一个子像素所发出的部分光线能够被整体向聚光结构的自身法线(正投影的内侧)方向进行聚拢,由此减小了这部分光线射入显示装置外表面的入射角,使得这部分光线的入射角能够小于发生全反射现象的临界值,由此减弱或者完全避免了光线在显示装置内发生全反射现象,使得更多的光线能够穿过显示装置的外表面而射入到环 境中,由此提高了显示装置的出光效率。
根据本申请实施例提供的显示装置,通过在显示装置内设置由聚光结构的阵列构成的聚光层来对发光层的子像素发出的光线进行聚拢,每个聚光结构对其自身所对应的子像素所发出的光线进行聚拢(汇聚),由此能够将将部分大视角的光线转至小视角,从而能够将本应在显示装置内全反射耗散掉的光线提取至显示装置外侧,由此提高了显示装置的出光效率。
本申请实施例提供的显示装置具有更高的出光效率,能够满足用户的对显示装置高亮度的使用需求,由于出光效率更高,不仅能够节约装置的使用功耗,也有利于提高装置的使用寿命。
可选地,为了向发光层进行供电,在基板与发光层之间还可以设置电路层,该电路层例如可以是薄膜晶体管阵列层。基板可以由玻璃、陶瓷、塑胶、金属或者橡胶等任意材质构成,本申请对此不做限定。

值得一提的是,当每个聚光结构覆盖于多个子像素之上时,聚光结构可以对该多个子像素发出的光线同时进行聚拢,此时聚光结构将该多个子像素发出的光线整体向聚光结构的自身法线或中线(正投影的内侧)方向进行聚拢。即该聚拢的参照物是相对聚光结构本身而言。
在一种可能的设计中,所述显示装置还包括:滤光层,设于所述发光层与所述聚光层之间,所述滤光层包括多个色阻单元以及围绕所述色阻单元的黑色矩阵,所述多个色阻单元一一对应的覆盖于多个所述子像素之上。

可选地,色阻单元可以为彩膜,红色色阻单元、绿色色阻单元或者蓝色色阻单元分别为红色彩膜、绿色彩膜或者蓝色彩膜。彩膜的厚度可以为1~5微米。可以通过旋涂或者喷墨打印等成熟工艺形成上述彩膜。

在一种可能的设计中,所述聚光结构的面积与所述子像素的发光面积的比值为 0.6~2.2,其中,所述聚光结构的面积为10%高度处的截面积。
通过以上设置,能够确保子像素所发出的大部分(例如面积的60%以上)光线均被聚光结构所覆盖,从而能够确保聚光结构能够对大部分光线进行聚拢,有利于提高装置的出光效率。
在一种可能的设计中,所述聚光结构的高度大于或等于2微米。由此使得聚光结构具有更好的聚光效果。
在一种可能的设计中,所述聚光结构为聚光微透镜。例如,为凸透镜。
可选地,该凸透镜的凸面的面型可以为球面、椭球面、抛物面、自由曲面等中的任意一种。

可选地,该光学胶可以是液态光学胶(liquid optical clear adhesive,LOCA),LOCA是一种液态胶水,固化后无色透明,透光率达到98%以上,具有固化收缩率小,耐黄变等特性。在全贴合领域中,与传统的OCA胶带相比,LOCA在大尺寸、曲面、恶劣环境等领域具有独特优势。例如。该LOCA可以是光学树脂(optical clear resin,OCR)。
可选地,保护层可以由丙烯酸基树脂、环氧树脂、酚醛树脂、聚氨酯、聚酰胺基树脂、聚酰亚胺基树脂、不饱和聚酯等中的至少一种材料构成,保护层的全光穿透率大于等于99%。
在一种可能的设计中,所述聚光结构与所述保护层的折射率之差为0.1~0.5。通过以上设置,能够使得聚光结构具有更好的光线汇聚效果。
例如,聚光结构的折射率范围为1.6~1.8,保护层的折射率为1.4~1.55。
在一种可能的设计中,所述显示装置还包括:散射层,设于所述聚光层背离所述基板的一侧,所述散射层的雾度值为20%~70%,例如雾度值为40%~55%。
在COE架构下,入射至显示装置内部的光线反射时容易发生衍射问题,导致在外界环境强光下(例如点光源或者太阳光或灯管下)产生色彩斑斓的衍射彩色图案,严重影响阅读体验。本申请通过在发光层的出光侧设置散射层,能够将有规律的衍射图案打散,从而消除衍射问题,提高用户的阅读体验。
在一种可能的设计中,所述散射层由所述保护层内部散布散射粒子而形成。
可选地,在保护层的制作过程中掺杂散射粒子,散射粒子的尺寸为大于2微米,并小于子像素最短边长度的一半,散射粒子的材质可为机散射体粒子,如交联聚苯乙烯(polystyrene,PS)、交联聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(polymethyl methacrylate,PMMA)、有机硅聚合物或者无机散射粒子,如二氧化钛等,需要在制样的过程中,充分混合,确保散射粒子的分布均匀性大于85%,调节雾度值的方法可以通过控制基体树脂和散射粒子的比例来实现。

在一种可能的设计中,所述多个聚光结构一一对应的覆盖于多个蓝色子像素之上。
也就是说,聚光层的多个聚光结构仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖,而不覆盖红色子像素或者绿色子像素。由于蓝色子像素的发光功耗几乎占整个显示装置工作功耗的一半,在聚光结构数量有限的前提下,聚光结构仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖取光,可以有效降低蓝色子像素的发光功耗,进而有利于最大限度的降低显示装置的整体功耗。
此外,聚光结构仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖,也有利于降低聚光结构的设置密度,进而在制造工艺上有利于降低聚光层的加工难度。
在一种可能的设计中,所述子像素包括有机发光二极管或者微米发光二极管。
在一种可能的设计中,所述显示装置还包括:胆甾型液晶层,设于所述发光层背离所述基板的一侧,所述胆甾型液晶层用于将所述子像素所发出的第二旋转方向的光线反射向所述发光层,并且供第一旋转方向的光线通过;所述发光层还用于将所述第二旋转方向的光线旋转为第一旋转方向并反射向所述胆甾型液晶层;圆偏光片层,设于所述胆甾型液晶层背离所述基板的一侧,所述圆偏光片层包括位相差膜和线性偏光片,所述位相差膜用于将所述第一旋转方向的光线转换成能够通过所述线性偏光片的垂直偏振光或水平偏振光。

可选地,第一旋转方向的光线为左旋偏振光,第二旋转方向的光线为右旋偏振光。此时,胆甾型液晶层能够将发光层的子像素所发出的右旋偏振光反射回发光层,并且透传左旋偏振光。发光层将该右旋偏振光旋转为左旋偏振光之后反射回胆甾型液晶层。
可选地,第一旋转方向的光线也可以为右旋偏振光,第二旋转方向的光线为左旋偏振光。此时,可以更改胆甾型液晶层的配置(螺旋方向),使得胆甾型液晶层能够反射左旋偏振光,并且透传右旋偏振光,线性偏光片被设置成可以使垂直偏振光透过,而屏蔽(阻隔)水平偏振光即可。
可选地,线性偏光片可以为金属线栅型、多层双折射聚合物膜型或MacNeille型偏光片。

有机发光二极管(organic light emitting diode,OLED)显示器件因具有自发光、色彩丰富、响应速度快、视角宽、重量轻、厚度薄、耗电少、可实现柔性显示与大面积全色显示等诸多优点,被业界公认为是最有发展潜力的显示装置。采用OLED显示面板制得的OLED显示装置被视为具有巨大应用前景的显示装置,尤其是在平板显示领域,OLED显示装置被认为是一种发展趋势。
OLED显示面板内设置有呈阵列排布的多个像素,根据OLED显示面板的配色模式,每个像素包括对应数量的子像素。例如,OLED显示面板采用红绿蓝(red-green-blue,RGB)配色模式时,每个像素可以包括三个子像素,其中,一个子像素为R子像素,一个子像素为G子像素,一个子像素为B子像素,每个子像素包括一个发光元件,发光元件中的发光层受到空穴与电子结合后形成的激子激发而发出相应颜色的光。即R子像素、G子像素、B子像素分别发出红色、绿色、蓝色的光。
在实际应用中,OLED显示面板还可以采用红绿蓝白(red-green-blue-white,RGBW)配色模式,此时每个像素包括四个子像素,该四个子像素包括一个可显示红光的R子像素,一个可显示绿光的G子像素,一个可现实蓝光的B子像素以及一个可显示白光的W子像素。
OLED按照驱动方式可以分为无源矩阵OLED(passive matrix OLED,PMOLED)和有源矩阵OLED(active matrix OLED,AMOLED)两大类。有源矩阵OLED也被称为主动式OLED,AMOLED因通过在每个像素中集成薄膜晶体管(thin film transistor,TFT)和电容器并由电容器维持电压的方法进行驱动,因而可以实现大尺寸、高分辨率面板,并且发光效能高,是当前研究的重点及未来显示技术的发展方向。本申请实施例中的OLED面板主要涉及AMOLED。
AMOLED通常具有依次形成于基板上的阳极(anode)层、有机发光层和阴极(cathode)层等。为了提高空穴的注入效率,阳极层应选用尽可能高的功函数材料构成,常见材料氧化铟锡(indium tin oxide,ITO)。对于阴极层材料的选择,功函数越低,有机材料与阴极之间的势垒越低,电子注入越容易,发光效率就越高,目前常用的阴极材料是镁银合金。
由于阴极层由金属材料构成,容易反射外界的环境光,造成用户观察到的对比大大降低。例如,当用户在太阳底下观看屏幕上的内容时,由于阴极层对阳光的反射,导致用户无法看清屏幕内容。为解决这一问题,可以在AMOLED显示面板的外部贴附偏光片(polarizer,POL),并且是带有位相差膜的圆偏光片(circle polarizer,C POL)。偏光片采用偏振光的原理,可有效降低外界环境光在屏幕上的反射强度。
图1是圆偏光片的工作原理示意图。如图1中的(a)部分所示,该圆偏光片包括线性偏光片1和位相差膜2,外界环境光经过吸收轴为垂直方向的线性偏光片1之后,只剩一半的水平线性偏振光,水平偏正光经过位相差膜2后,转成左旋(圆)偏振光,左旋偏振光经过OLED结构阴极层3的金属电极反射后,旋转180°为右旋偏振光,右旋偏振光经过位相差膜2后,转成垂直偏振光,垂直偏振光无法通过吸收轴为垂直方向的线性偏光片1,无法出光,由此降低了外界环境光在屏幕上的反射强度。经过以上步骤,将外界环境光阻隔在圆偏光片内,大大提升了OLED显示面板本身的对比度,实现了OLED面板的户外可视功能,即使在强烈的太阳光底下,也可清晰看见屏幕的内容。
然而,OLED结构的出射光为非极化光,其中50%的垂直偏振光无法通过线性偏光片,由此也对OLED结构的出光量造成损失。具体地,如图1中的(b)部分所示,OLED结构的出射光透过OLED结构阴极层3射向位相差膜2,该出射光中包括50%的左旋偏振光和50%的右旋偏振光,在位相差膜2的作用下,左旋偏振光和右旋偏振光分别被转换成水平偏振光和垂直偏振光,垂直偏振光被线性偏光片1吸收,只有水平偏振光能够通过线性偏光片1射向外界。
综上所述,圆偏光片为吸收型偏光片,光透过率小于50%,实际应用中仅约为43%左右,从而使得OLED器件发出的光也被吸收约60%,由此降低了OLED器件的出光效率。也就是说,圆偏光片虽然实现了OLED面板的户外可视功能,但是却带来了出光效率较低的问题。
为解决上述问题,业内提出了薄膜封装结构上形成彩膜(color filter on thin film encapsulation,CF on TFE,COE)这一技术。COE是一种能够替代偏光片的新技术,通 过将彩膜制作在薄膜封装(thin film encapsulation,TFE)层之上,能够实现对环境光的压制,并实现提高面板(panel)出光效率的目标。通过彩膜本身可以将面板的反射率压低至与圆偏光片相当的水平,而彩膜的透光率可达到60%以上,进而能够提高OLED面板约10%~30%出光效率。此外,相对于偏光片,彩膜更加轻薄,也有利于实现OLED面板的轻薄化,以实现柔性显示特性。
下面结合附图对COE架构做进一步详细介绍。图2是本申请实施例提供的一种基于COE架构的OLED面板的结构示意图。本申请实施例提供的OLED显示面板包括呈阵列排布的多个像素,每个像素包括至少三个子像素,每个子像素可发出一种颜色的光,该三个子像素可以分别是发出红光的R子像素、发出绿光的G子像素以及发出蓝光的B子像素,子像素的设置形式可以根据OLED显示面板的配色模式进行设置。为便于说明,图2中仅示出了OLED面板的一个像素。
如图2所示,该OLED面板依次包括基板10、薄膜晶体管阵列层20、有机发光层30、薄膜封装层40、平坦(over coating,OC)层50、彩膜滤光层60、连接层70、盖板层80以及功能层90。
其中,有机发光层30包括像素限定层(pixel define layer,PDL)31、子像素发光单元32、阳极层33以及阴极层34。像素限定层31由黑色不透光材质构成,内部形成有多个开口区域,每个开口区域内设有子像素发光单元32,子像素发光单元32朝向基板10的一侧设有阳极层33,该阳极层33也位于像素限定层31限定出的开口区域内,子像素发光单元32背离基板10的一侧设有阴极层34,该阴极层34至少具有足够的透光性,以使得子像素发光单元32发出的光可以通过阴极层34射向外侧。
图2中示出了一个像素中的三个子像素发光单元32,分别为发出红光的R子像素,发出绿光的G子像素以及发出蓝光的B子像素。
薄膜封装层40位于有机发光层30的外侧,用于阻隔水汽或者氧气侵入有机发光层30内部对其造成损坏。平坦层50用于对薄膜封装层40进行平坦化(找平),以方便在薄膜封装层40上可靠设置彩色滤光层60。
彩膜滤光层60包括色阻单元62以及位于相邻的色阻单元62之间黑色矩阵(black matrix,BM)61,黑色矩阵由黑色不透光材质构成,子像素发光单元32发出的光线仅能通过色阻单元62射向外侧。
色阻单元62用于供特定波长的光线通过,色阻单元62包括多个,并且与多个子像素发光单元32一一对应设置。具体地,色阻单元62可以包括红色色阻单元、绿色色阻单元和蓝色色阻单元,与R子像素、G子像素以及B子像素一一对应设置,形成彩膜功能层。
彩膜滤光层60上侧还依次设置有连接层70、盖板层80以及功能层90,连接层70由高度透光材料构成,用于将盖板层80固定连接于彩色滤光层60之上,该连接层70例如可以由光学胶(optically clear adhesive,OCA)构成。盖板层80用于为面板提供机械支撑与保护,盖板层80例如可以是玻璃盖板。功能层90用于实现相应的功能,功能层90例如可以是减小光线反射的减反层(anti-reflection,AR)。
综上所述,比较图2和现有的具有圆偏光片的OLED面板,图2所示的OLED面板采用彩膜滤光层60代替了圆偏光片,不仅能够实现对环境光的压制(降低强光下面板的反射率),还能够提高面板的出光效率(能够将出光率从42%提高至60%),并且,相 对于圆偏光片,彩膜滤光层60更加轻薄(能够将厚度从100μm降低至5μm),有利于实现OLED面板的折叠和弯曲特性,实现面板的轻薄化。
随着经济的发展和科技的进步,用户对电子设备的使用需求也日益提高,采用COE架构的OLED面板虽然能够将出光效率提高至60%左右,然而60%的出光效率可能仍然难以满足用户在一些情况下的使用需求,当前,为了达到更高的出光亮度,就需要对OLED面板提供更多的功耗,由此降低了OLED面板的使用寿命,提供一种出光效率更高的OLED面板成为亟需解决的问题。
光传播到两种介质的交界面上时,通常会同时发生反射和折射现象,而当入射角超过某一临界角时,折射光线完全消失,光线不再发生折射现象而全部返回到原介质中传播,这一现象叫做全反射现象。由于全反射现象的存在,导致OLED面板的出光效率难以进一步被提高。下面结合附图介绍全反射现象对OLED面板出光效率的影响。
图3是本申请实施例提供的OLED面板出射光线发生全反射现象的原理性示意图。为便于说明,相对于图2,图3中的OLED面板做了一些结构上的简化,上述简化不构成对本申请实施例提供的OLED面板结构上的任何限定。
如图3所示,该OLED面板包括依次直接或者间接(通过中间媒介)堆叠设置的基板10、有机发光层30、薄膜封装层40、彩膜滤光层60以及功能层90等。有机发光层30具有多个子像素发光单元32,子像素发光单元32发出的光线依次通过薄膜封装层40、彩膜滤光层60上的色阻单元62后射向功能层90的顶面(外表面)。功能层90的顶面也即OLED面板与外界环境的交界面,光线从功能层90射向空气中,相当于光从光密介质射向光疏介质中,此时可能发生全反射现象。
色阻单元62一一对应的覆盖于子像素发光单元32,色阻单元62的面积大于子像素发光单元32的发光面积,子像素发光单元32相当于点光源,子像素发光单元32发出的光线穿过色阻单元62后射向功能层90的入射角度可能不相同,有的光线入射角大一些,有的小一些,当入射角超过某一临界值时,光线容易发生全发射现象。
例如,如图3所示,子像素发光单元32发射出的第一光线L1、第二光线L2、第三光线L3通过色阻单元62后射向功能层90的顶面,其中,第二光线L2和第三光线L3的入射角(即光线与顶面法线的夹角)超过了临界角度而发生了全反射现象,此时,第二光线L2和第三光线L3的折射光线完全消失,光线不再发生折射现象而全部返回到面板内部进行传播,被反射回来的光线最终被面板内部的材料所吸收。也就是说,对于第一光线L1、第二光线L2、第三光线L3而言,仅有第一光线L1能够穿出功能层90而射向外界。
综上所述,由于全反射现象的存在,OLED面板发出的部分光线可能被面板与环境的交界面反射回面板内部,并且最终被面板内部的材料所吸收耗散,发生全反射的这部分光线无法出射至环境中,由此降低了OLED面板的出光效率,OLED面板的出光效率难以被进一步提高。如何能够打破瓶颈,提供一种出光效率更高的OLED面板成为业内的热点问题。
为解决上述问题,本申请实施例提供了一种显示装置及电子设备,通过在显示装置内设置聚光结构来对光线进行聚拢,能够将更多的光线提取至显示装置的外侧,由此提高了显示装置的出光效率。
第一方面,本申请实施例首先提供了一种显示装置,该显示装置包括但不限于显示面 板,例如可以是前述的OLED显示面板,此外还可以是微米发光二极管(micro light-emitting diode,microLED)等结构的显示面板,但不限于此。
图4是本申请实施例提供的显示装置100的一例的结构示意图。如图4所示,本申请实施例提供的显示装置100包括:基板110、发光层120以及聚光层160。
其中,发光层120设于基板110的一个侧面上,在通电状态下发光层120能够向远离基板110的方向射出光线,也就是说,沿着图4中的竖直向上的方向为发光层120产生光线的出射方向,发光层120的上侧为出光侧。
发光层120包括以阵列形式排布的多个像素发光单元(下文简称为像素),每个像素包括至少三个子像素发光单元(下文简称为子像素)121,每个子像素121可显示一种颜色的光。
在本申请实施例中,每个像素包括三个子像素121,分别是一个可显示(发出)红光的红色子像素、一个可显示绿光的绿色子像素以及一个可显示蓝光的蓝色子像素。
发光层120包括呈阵列排布的多个子像素121,为了便于说明,图4中仅示出了3个子像素121,沿着图4中从左往右的方向,该3个子像素121分别为红色子像素、绿色子像素以及蓝色子像素,该3个子像素121构成一个像素。也就是说,图4仅示出了显示装置100的像素阵列中的其中一个像素。
根据显示装置100的类型不同,该发光层120的具体结构可以不同。在本申请实施例中,显示装置100为OLED显示面板,发光层120为有机发光层,此时子像素121包括有机发光二极管。
在其他实施方式中,该多个子像素121还可以包括前述可显示白光的W子像素,即此时显示装置100可以为RGBW配色模式。
在其他实施方式中,显示装置100也可以为microLED显示面板,此时子像素121包括微米发光二极管。
参见图4,发光层120还可以包括像素限定层122、阳极层123以及阴极层124。像素限定层由黑色不透光材质构成,内部形成有多个开口区域,每个开口区域内设有一个子像素121,子像素121朝向基板110的一侧设有阳极层123,该阳极层123也位于像素限定层122限定出的开口区域内,子像素121背离基板110的一侧设有阴极层124,该阴极层124位于子像素121的出光侧,因此阴极层124应当具有足够的透光性,以使得子像素121发出的光可以通过阴极层124射向装置外侧。
如图4所示,为了向发光层120进行供电,在基板110与发光层120之间还可以设置电路层111,该电路层111例如可以是薄膜晶体管阵列层。基板110可以由玻璃、陶瓷、塑胶、金属或者橡胶等任意材质构成,本申请对此不做限定。作为一种可能的实现方式,基板110可以由柔性材料构成,例如由聚酰亚胺(polyimide,PI)构成,使得基板110能够弯曲变形,进而使得显示装置100能够满足可折叠终端设备(例如可折叠手机)的使用需求。
如图4所示,聚光层160设于发光层120背离基板110的一侧,即聚光层160设于发光层120的出光侧,聚光层160包括多个聚光结构161,多个聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于多个子像素121之上,聚光结构161用于聚拢其自身所覆盖的子像素121发出的光线,例如聚光结构161用于将子像素121发出的光线向该聚光结构161自身的法线(轴线、中 心线)方向聚拢。也即向聚光结构161自身朝向装置外表面的正投影内侧进行汇聚。
在本申请实施例中,每个聚光结构161对应覆盖于一个子像素121之上,子像素121发出的光线能够通过聚光结构161射向显示装置100的外表面,该外表面即装置与外界环境的交界面,也是容易发生全反射现象的光密介质和光束介质的分界面,在聚光结构的折射作用下,子像素121所发出的部分光线能够被向聚光结构的自身法线(内侧)方向进行聚拢,由此减小了这部分光线射入显示装置100外表面的入射角,使得这部分光线的入射角能够小于发生全反射现象的临界值,由此减弱或者完全避免了光线在装置内发生全反射现象,使得更多的光线能够穿过装置外表面而射入到环境中,由此提高了显示装置100的出光效率。
在这里,聚光结构161覆盖于子像素121之上,可以是覆盖整个子像素121(即完整覆盖),也可以是覆盖子像素121的一部分(即部分覆盖),本申请对此不做限定。在下文中提及的覆盖均应当包括完整覆盖和部分覆盖。
根据本申请实施例提供的显示装置100,通过在显示装置100内设置由聚光结构161的阵列构成的聚光层160来对发光层120的子像素121发出的光线进行聚拢,聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于子像素121之上,每个聚光结构161对其自身所对应的子像素121所发出的光线进行聚拢(汇聚),由此能够将将部分大视角的光线转至小视角,从而能够将本应在装置内全反射耗散掉的光线提取至装置外侧,由此提高了显示装置100的出光效率。
本申请实施例提供的显示装置100具有更高的出光效率,能够满足用户的对装置高亮度的使用需求,由于出光效率更高,不仅能够节约装置的使用功耗,也有利于提高装置的使用寿命。
为便于理解说明,作为一个具体示例,如图4所示,中间的子像素121发出的三条光线通过聚光结构161射向装置的外表面,如果不设置聚光结构161,左右两侧的两条光线将直接按照图中虚线箭头所指的方向射向外表面,此时这两条光线的入射角度较大,可能超过了临界值而发生全反射现象。一旦发生全反射,这两条光线将被反射回装置的内侧,最终被装置内部的材料所吸收耗散。
本申请通过设置聚光结构161以后,上述两条光线被向聚光结构161的中轴线(中心线,即向自身投影内侧)方向进行汇聚,最终按照实线箭头所指方向射向面板的外表面,此时这两条光线的入射角度得到明显的减小,不会在发生全反射现象,而是连同中间的一条光线一起出射至装置的外侧,由此提高了装置的出光效率。
可选地,在其他实施方式中,每个聚光结构161也可以对应覆盖于多个子像素121之上。或者,多个聚光结构161(例如并列设置或者层叠设置)也可以同时覆盖于一个子像素121之上。以上设置均能够起到对子像素121发出的光线进行聚拢的作用,均应当被囊括在本申请的保护范围内。
值得一提的是,当每个聚光结构161覆盖于多个子像素121之上时,聚光结构161将该多个子像素121发出的光线整体向聚光结构161的自身法线或中线(正投影的内侧)方向进行聚拢。即该聚拢的参照物是相对聚光结构161本身而言。
也就是说,在本申请的表述中,多个聚光结构161覆盖于多个子像素121之上,至少应当包括以下三种情况中的至少一种:多个聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于多个子像素 121之上(一对一);每个聚光结构161覆盖于多个子像素121之上(一对多);多个聚光结构161同时覆盖于一个子像素121之上(多对一)。本领域技术人员可以根据具体需求选择上述一种或者多种的组合来对子像素121的光线进行聚拢。
图5是本申请实施例提供的显示装置100与现有技术中的显示装置的效果仿真对比图。如图5所示,同等测试条件下,使用本申请实施例提供的显示装置100与现有传统的未设置聚光结构的显示装置进行计算机仿真模拟,以获得装置在不同视角下的相对亮度。
仿真结果表明,本申请实施例提供的显示装置100的亮度(即出光效率)要明显好于现有传统的显示装置。在不同视角下,本申请实施例提供的显示装置100的相对亮度几乎均大于现有传统的显示装置的相对亮度。当视角为0度时,本申请实施例提供的显示装置100相对于现有传统的显示装置的亮度提升效果最为明显,亮度提升达到20%以上。本申请实施例提供的显示装置100通过设置聚光结构161能够有效提高装置的出光效率。
下面结合附图对本申请实施例提供的显示装置100的具体结构作进一步介绍。
如图4所示,显示装置100还包括依次堆叠设置于发光层120上的封装层130、平坦层140以及滤光层150,聚光层160设于滤光层150的出光侧。
其中,封装层130可以是薄膜封装层,封装层130用于对发光层120进行封装和保护,防止水汽、氧气等杂质侵入发光层120内部对其造成侵蚀损坏。
封装层130可以由一层或者多层薄膜结构叠加而成,例如封装层130可以包括至少一层无机材料层和/或有机材料(例如氮化硅或氧化硅)层。
平坦层140用于对封装层130进行平坦化处理,以方便在封装层130上可靠设置滤光层150。
平坦层140由高度透光材质构成,其全光穿透率大于等于99%。
可选地,平坦层140可以由丙烯酸基树脂、环氧树脂、酚醛树脂、聚氨酯、聚酰胺基树脂、聚酰亚胺基树脂、不饱和聚酯等中的至少一种材料构成。
滤光层150设于发光层120与聚光层160之间,滤光层150包括多个色阻单元151以及围绕色阻单元151的黑色矩阵152,多个色阻单元151一一对应的覆盖于多个子像素121之上。
具体地,色阻单元151用于供特定波长的光线通过,多个色阻单元151包括红色色阻单元、绿色色阻单元和蓝色色阻单元。多个色阻单元151与多个子像素121一一对应,红色色阻单元覆盖于发出红光的子像素121之上,绿色色阻单元覆盖于发出绿光的子像素121之上,蓝色色阻单元覆盖于发出蓝光的子像素121之上。也就是说,对应于图4中的3个子像素121,沿着图4中从左往右的方向,图中的3个色阻单元分别为红色色阻单元、绿色色阻单元和蓝色色阻单元。
黑色矩阵152环绕色阻单元151进行设置,相邻两个色阻单元151均设有黑色矩阵152。或者说,黑色矩阵152上设有多个开口,每个开口内设有一个色阻单元151,该色组单元151的颜色与其自身覆盖的子像素121的发光颜色相对应。
黑色矩阵152由黑色不透光材质构成,例如由黑色树脂材料构成,子像素121发出的光线仅能通过色阻单元151射向面板外侧。
可选地,色阻单元151可以为彩膜,红色色阻单元、绿色色阻单元或者蓝色色阻单元分别为红色彩膜、绿色彩膜或者蓝色彩膜。彩膜的厚度可以为1~5微米。可以通过旋涂或 者喷墨打印等成熟工艺形成上述彩膜。
可选地,黑色矩阵152的厚度为1.5~5微米,黑色矩阵152在滤光层150中所占的面积比例大于50%,例如为75%~85%,黑色矩阵152的厚度可以和彩膜的厚度相同。
本申请实施例提供的显示装置100通过设置滤光层150,无需在发光层120的出光侧再设置用于防止对环境光进行反射的偏光片,能够提升显示装置100的出光效率,从而降低显示装置100的功耗,提高显示装置100的使用寿命。
如图4所示,聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于色阻单元151上,聚光结构161与色阻单元151的中心的位置偏差小于或等于5微米,聚光结构161与色阻单元151的面积比为0.6~2.2。
通过以上设置,能够确保色阻单元151的至少大部分(例如面积的80%以上)均被聚光结构161所覆盖,从而能够确保聚光结构161能够对穿过色阻单元151的大部分光线进行聚拢,有利于提高面板的出光效率。
滤光层150可以采用低温彩膜工艺制作而成,其制作温度低于100℃,制作流程为:在平坦层140上制作起到防反射作用的黑色矩阵152,洗净后再进行光阻的涂布,先涂布红色光阻后,经曝光、显影、烘烤,形成红色彩膜(红色色阻单元),再依序制作形成绿色彩膜和蓝色彩膜。
值得一提的是,本申请实施例提供的显示装置100为COE架构下的显示装置,然而,该显示装置100并不限于COE架构,也可以是其他架构,例如在其他实施方式中,显示装置100可以不包括滤光层150,本申请对此不做限定。聚光层160包括呈阵列排布的多个聚光结构161,本申请对聚光结构161的具体结构不做限定,只要能够起到聚拢光线作用的光学元件均应当被囊括在本申请的保护范围内。聚光结构161能够将更多的光线提取至装置的外侧,因此本申请中的聚光结构也可以被称作取光微结构。
图6是本申请实施例提供的聚光结构161的剖面示意图。如图6所示,本申请实施例提供的聚光结构161可以是能够起到聚拢光线作用的任意规则或者不规则形状的光学元件。
如图6所示,本申请实施例提供的聚光结构161的高度H大于或等于2微米,由此使得聚光结构具有更好的聚光效果。
如图6中的(a)部分、图6中的(c)部分以及图6中的(d)部分所示,聚光结构161可以是聚光微透镜,例如聚光凸透镜。此时,聚光结构161的高度H是指聚光结构161的底面S0到顶点的距离,该底面为平面,即聚光结构161朝向子像素121的侧面,也是邻近色阻单元151一侧的侧面,为聚光结构161的入光侧。该顶点远离子像素121,为聚光结构161的出光侧。沿着聚光结构161的底面S0到顶点的方向,即光线的出射方向,也即显示装置100的厚度方向。
如图6中的(b)部分所示,聚光结构161的剖面也可以呈梯形状,具有顶面和底面S0,二者均为平面。此时,聚光结构161的高度H是指聚光结构161的底面S0到顶面的距离。该底面S0贴合于色阻单元151之上。
如图6所示,随着高度的不同,聚光结构161的截面积可能不同。在本申请实施例中,将聚光结构161的10%高度处(即H/10处)的截面积S定义为聚光结构161的面积。也就说是,对于图6中示出的不同结构的聚光结构161而言,H/10处的截面积S即为聚光 结构161的面积。
进一步地,在本申请实施例中,聚光结构161的面积(即10%高度处的截面积)与聚光结构161所对应的子像素121的发光面积的比值为0.6~2.2。
通过以上设置,能够确保子像素121所发出的大部分(例如面积的60%以上)光线均被聚光结构161所覆盖,从而能够确保聚光结构161能够对大部分光线进行聚拢,有利于提高装置的出光效率。
可选地,聚光结构161为凸透镜,该凸透镜的矢高大于或等于2微米,由此使得聚光结构161具有更好的聚光效果。
可选地,该凸透镜的凸面的面型可以为球面、椭球面、抛物面、自由曲面等中的任意一种。
可选地,聚光结构161的材质可以是丙烯酸树脂、聚酰亚胺树脂、硅氧烷树脂、酚醛树脂,以及与金属纳米粒子复合的上述树脂体系等,本申请对此不做限定。
在本申请实施例中,多个聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于多个子像素121(即多个色阻单元151)之上。聚光结构161的数量可以等于或者小于子像素121的数量。
可选地,聚光结构161的数量与子像素121的数量相同,此时每一个子像素121均被聚光结构161所覆盖。也就是说,红色子像素、绿色子像素以及蓝色子像素均被聚光结构161所覆盖。
可选地,聚光结构161的数量小于子像素121的数量,此时仅有部分子像素121被聚光结构161所覆盖,而非全部。
例如,多个聚光结构161一一对应的覆盖于多个蓝色子像素之上,也就是说,聚光层的多个聚光结构161仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖,而不覆盖红色子像素或者绿色子像素。由于蓝色子像素的发光功耗几乎占整个面板工作功耗的一半,在透镜数量有限的前提下,聚光结构161仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖取光,可以有效降低蓝色子像素的发光功耗,进而有利于最大限度的降低面板的整体功耗。
此外,聚光结构161仅对蓝色子像素进行覆盖,也有利于降低聚光结构161的设置密度,进而在制造工艺上有利于降低聚光层160的加工难度。
可选地,在其他实施方式中,聚光结构161也可以根据实际需求按照任意的方式覆盖部分子像素121,例如仅覆盖红色子像素和/或绿色子像素,本申请对此不做限定。
在本申请实施例中,聚光层160(即聚光结构161)可以通过黄光工艺成型加工,具体工艺流程如下:
首先进行滤光层150表面清洗,去除表面异物与改善表面亲纾水性避免涂布缺陷产生;然后以涂布设备进行光刻胶成膜涂布,形成整面光刻胶膜;再使用软烤设备初步固化光刻胶与基板连结,并去除光刻胶内部部分化学溶液成分;后搭配光刻掩膜及曝光间距与曝光能量定义位置精度与图型;接着利用显影设备搭配显影温度与显影时间将光刻后图型显像;最后进行硬烤工艺将聚光结构161做最终固化避免后续工艺时出现异常。
如图4所示,显示装置100还包括保护层170,保护层170设于聚光层160背离基板110的一侧,聚光结构161的折射率大于保护层的折射率。保护层170覆盖于聚光层160之上,能够对聚光结构161起到隔离保护的作用。
保护层170由具有高透光性的材质构成,例如可以为光学胶(optically clear adhesive, OCA),光学胶是一种无基体材料的双面贴合胶带,具有无色透明、高透光性(全光穿透率>99%)、高黏着力、耐高温、抗紫外线等特点,且具有受控制的厚度,能提供均匀的间距,长时间使用不会产生黄化、剥离及变质的问题。
可选地,该光学胶可以是液态光学胶(liquid optical clear adhesive,LOCA),LOCA是一种液态胶水,固化后无色透明,透光率达到98%以上,具有固化收缩率小,耐黄变等特性。在全贴合领域中,与传统的OCA胶带相比,LOCA在大尺寸、曲面、恶劣环境等领域具有独特优势。例如。该LOCA可以是光学树脂(optical clear resin,OCR)。
可选地,保护层170可以由丙烯酸基树脂、环氧树脂、酚醛树脂、聚氨酯、聚酰胺基树脂、聚酰亚胺基树脂、不饱和聚酯等中的至少一种材料构成,保护层170的全光穿透率大于等于99%。
可选地,聚光结构161与保护层170的折射率之差为0.1~0.5。通过以上设置,能够使得聚光结构161具有更好的光线汇聚效果。
在本申请实施例中,聚光结构161的折射率范围为1.6~1.8,保护层170的折射率为1.4~1.55。
本申请实施例提供的显示装置100还包括散射层,该散射层设于聚光层160背离基板110的一侧,散射层的雾度(haze)值为20%~70%,例如雾度值为40%~55%。
在COE架构下,入射至面板内部的光线反射时容易发生衍射问题,导致在外界环境强光下(例如点光源或者太阳光或灯管下)产生色彩斑斓的衍射彩色图案,严重影响阅读体验。本申请通过在发光层120的出光侧设置散射层,能够将有规律的衍射图案打散,从而消除衍射问题,提高用户的阅读体验。
进一步地,如图4所示,散热层由保护层170内部散布散射粒子而形成。散射粒子均匀的分布于保护层170内部(分布均匀性大于85%),可以根据散射粒子的浓度来调节散热层的雾度值。
具体地,在保护层170的制作过程中掺杂散射粒子,散射粒子的尺寸为大于2微米,并小于子像素最短边长度的一半,散射粒子的材质可为机散射体粒子,如交联聚苯乙烯(polystyrene,PS)、交联聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(polymethyl methacrylate,PMMA)、有机硅聚合物或者无机散射粒子,如二氧化钛等,需要在制样的过程中,充分混合,确保散射粒子的分布均匀性大于85%,调节雾度值的方法可以通过控制基体树脂和散射粒子的比例来实现。
可选地,散射粒子为球形结构,该球形结构的直径为1~3微米。从而能够更加有效的消除衍射问题。
如图4所示,显示装置100还包括依次堆叠设置于保护层170之上的盖板层180和功能层190。
盖板层180用于为面板提供机械支撑与保护,盖板层180例如可以是玻璃盖板。功能层190用于实现相应的功能,功能层190可以由一层或者多层薄膜堆叠而成。
例如,功能层190可以包括用于减小光线反射的减反层,该减反层能够减小面板表面的反射,提高显示装置100画面的对比度,提高显示画面色域,改善熄屏状态下视觉偏色等问题。
减反层可采用现有成熟的干法或湿法工艺制成,减反层的材质例如可以是氮氧化硅或 二氧化硅。
再例如,功能层190还可以包括抗眩保护(anti-glare,AG)层,本申请通过设置AG层,能够解决显示装置100在环境光源下产生反光、眩光的问题,提高图像画面质量。AG层可以降低环境光的干扰,提高显示画面的可视角度和亮度,减少屏幕反光,让图像更清晰、色彩更艳丽、颜色更饱和,从而显著改善面板的显示效果。
再例如,功能层190还可以包括耐指纹(anti-fingerprint,AF)层。本申请通过设置AF层,能够将盖板层180表面张力降至最低,使其具有较强的疏水疏油、抗指纹的能力,从而进一步达到电子产品表面污渍附着力差,易清洁的效果。
例如,该AF层可以是能够降低汗液沾染的氟醚类耐指纹层。
图7是本申请实施例提供的显示装置100的另一例的结构示意图。如图7所示,相对于前述图4所示的实施例,在本实施例中,散射层131设于封装层130与聚光层160之间。也就是说,图4所示实施例中散射层位于聚光层160的出光侧,聚光层160先对发光层120发出的光线进行汇聚以后,散射层再对光线进行散射处理。而本实施例中散射层131位于聚光层160的入光侧,散射层131先对发光层120发出的光线进行散射以后,聚光层160再对光线进行汇聚处理。相对于图4所示的实施例,本实施例提供的显示装置100正视角的亮度更高。
可选地,散射层131雾度值可以为5%~85%。类似地,散射层131也可以通过树脂等透光材料内部掺杂散射粒子而形成,散射层131的材质选择以及制造工艺等可以参见前述实施例中的表述,在此不再赘述。
进一步地,显示装置100还包括触控(touch on TFE,TOE)层。触控层设于封装层130与聚光层160之间,触控层包括平坦层,散射层131由该平坦层内部散布散射粒子而形成。
本申请实施例通过复用触控层的平坦层,通过在该平坦层内部散布散射粒子而形成散射层131,有利于减薄显示装置100的整体厚度。
图8是本申请实施例提供的触控层的结构示意图。如图8所示,触控层包括依次堆叠设置的缓冲(buffer)层T3、第二平坦层T2以及第一平坦层T1。第一平坦层T1与第二平坦层T2的厚度均为两微米左右,可以复用第一平坦层T1和/或第二平坦层,即可以在第一平坦层T1和/或第二平坦层内掺杂散射粒子以形成该散射层131,在不会影响触控层正常工作的前提下,能够起到消除部分衍射的效果。
如图1所示,OLED显示面板因为内部金属电极结构,在室内或外界强光下的反光,造成阅读的干扰,暗态不暗。通常是在外部加上可抗环境光反射的圆偏光片,通过线偏光片及相位补偿膜的组合将OLED阴极反射光调整至无法透过线偏光的偏振态。然而OLED出射光为非极化光,其中50%的垂直偏振态无法通过线偏光片,也对OLED显示面板出光造成损失。
图4-图8所示的实施例提供的显示装置100通过设置滤光层150来取代传统的圆偏光片,并且在滤光层150上进一步设置聚光层160来对光线进行聚拢,由此提高了显示装置100的出光效率。
本申请实施例还提供了一种显示装置,该显示装置可以保留圆偏光片,而是通过在显示装置内部设置胆甾型液晶(cholesteric liquidcrystal,CLC)层来选择性的将左旋偏振光 或者右旋偏振光反射向装置的发光层,装置的发光层对反射回来的左旋或者右旋偏振光进行旋转和再次反射,进而能够使得发光层发出的左旋和右旋偏振光均能够最终通过圆偏光片射向面板的外侧,由此提高了显示装置的出光效率。
胆甾型液晶层(又被称为手性出光层)是实现上述技术效果的关键,胆甾型液晶由衬底和液晶组成,胆甾型液晶的液晶分子呈扁平状,排列成层,层内分子相互平行,分子长轴平行于层平面,不同层的分子长轴方向稍有变化,沿层的法线方向排列成螺旋状结构。可以通过胆甾型液晶的结构来实现偏振选择性。
胆甾相液晶对特定波长范围的光线具有反射某一旋转方向圆偏振光(左旋或者右旋),透传另一方向圆偏振光(右旋或者左旋)的特性。胆甾相液晶作用波长范围由液晶分子折射率差△n和液晶分子周期pitch乘积决定。对于作用波长以外的光线,胆甾相液晶仅能够进行透传,而无法起到反射作用。在本申请实施例中,可以对胆甾相液晶进行配置,使得胆甾型液晶层的作用波段包括但不限于蓝光波段、绿光波段、红光波段或是整个可见光波段。
当胆甾型液晶的螺距旋转方向为左旋时,允许右旋偏振光(也被称为右旋圆偏振光)透射,且能够将左旋偏振光(也被称作左旋圆偏振光)反射向面板的发光层。或者,当胆甾型液晶的螺距旋转方向为右旋时,允许左旋偏振光透射,且能够将右旋偏振光反射向面板的发光层。
图9是本申请实施例提供的显示装置200的结构示意图。如图9所示,显示面板200包括基板210,以及依次堆叠于所述基板210上的电路层220、发光层230、封装层240、聚光层250、胆甾型液晶层260、圆偏光片270、连接层280以及盖板层290。其中,基板210、电路层220、发光层230、封装层240、聚光层250、连接层280以及盖板层290可以参见前述的相关表述,本申请在此重点介绍胆甾型液晶层260与圆偏光片270。
图10是胆甾型液晶层260的工作原理示意图。如图9、图10所示,胆甾型液晶层260设于发光层230背离基板210的一侧,胆甾型液晶层260用于将发光层230的子像素231所发出的第二旋转方向的光线反射回发光层230,并且供第一旋转方向的光线通过。发光层230包括金属材质层(例如阴极层),基于发光层230自身的特性,发光层230(例如阴极层)能够将第二旋转方向的光线旋转为第一旋转方向并反射至胆甾型液晶层,由发光层230旋转获得的第一旋转方向的光线能够通过胆甾型液晶层260。
圆偏光片270包括位相差膜271和线性偏光片272,从胆甾型液晶层260射出的光线首先射向位相差膜271。圆偏光片层270设于胆甾型液晶层背离基板210的一侧,位相差膜271用于将第一旋转方向的光线转换成能够通过线性偏光片272的垂直偏振光或水平偏振光。
在本申请实施例中,第一旋转方向的光线为左旋偏振光,第二旋转方向的光线为右旋偏振光。此时,胆甾型液晶层260能够将发光层230的子像素231所发出的右旋偏振光反射回发光层230,并且透传左旋偏振光。发光层230将该右旋偏振光旋转为左旋偏振光之后反射回胆甾型液晶层260。
具体地,如图10所示,发光层230的出射光为自然光,包括50%的左旋偏振光和50%的右旋偏振光,上述光线传输至胆甾型液晶层260以后,50%的左旋偏振光将直接通过胆甾型液晶层260传输至位相差膜271,位相差膜271将这部分光线转换成水平偏振光,并 且传输至线性偏光片272。线性偏光片272为吸收型偏振片(absorptive polarizer),对入射光具有遮蔽和透过的功能,可以使水平偏振光透过,而屏蔽(阻隔)垂直偏振光。
可选地,线性偏光片272可以为金属线栅型、多层双折射聚合物膜型或MacNeille型偏光片。
发光层230发射的右旋偏振光无法透过胆甾型液晶层260,而是被胆甾型液晶层260反射回发光层230,发光层230将该右旋偏振光旋转为左旋偏振光之后反射回胆甾型液晶层260。此时,这部分光线可以依次通过胆甾型液晶层260、位相差膜271和线性偏光片272之后射向装置外侧。
根据本申请实施例提供的显示装置200,通过在发光层230和圆偏光片270之间设置胆甾型液晶层260来选择性的将左旋偏振光或者右旋偏振光反射向装置的发光层,发光层对反射回来的左旋或者右旋偏振光进行旋转和再次反射,进而能够使得发光层230发出的左旋偏振光和右旋偏振光均能够最终通过圆偏光片270射向装置的外侧,由此提高了显示装置200的出光效率。
可选地,在其他实施方式中,第一旋转方向的光线也可以为右旋偏振光,第二旋转方向的光线为左旋偏振光。此时,可以更改胆甾型液晶层260的配置(螺旋方向),使得胆甾型液晶层260能够反射左旋偏振光,并且透传右旋偏振光,线性偏光片272被设置成可以使垂直偏振光透过,而屏蔽(阻隔)水平偏振光即可。
如图9所示,在本申请实施例中,胆甾型液晶层260位于聚光层250背离基板210的一侧,也即胆甾型液晶层260位于聚光层250的出光侧。
图11是本申请实施例提供的显示装置200的另一例的结构示意图。在图11所示的实施例中,胆甾型液晶层260也可以位于聚光层250与基板210之间,也即胆甾型液晶层260位于聚光层250的入光侧。本申请实施例对聚光层250与胆甾型液晶层260的相对位置不做限定。
如图9所示,在本申请实施例中,胆甾型液晶层250包括多个液晶图案261,多个液晶图案261一一对应的覆盖于多个子像素231之上。
此时多个液晶图案261的作用波段与多个子像素231的显示波段一一对应,作用波段为蓝光波段的液晶图案261(B-CLC)覆盖于显示蓝光的子像素231(B)之上,用于将该子像素231发出的蓝光中的第二旋转方向(右旋)的光线反射回发光层230,并且供第一旋转方向(左旋)的光线通过。
作用波段为绿光波段的液晶图案261(G-CLC)覆盖于显示绿光的子像素231(G)之上,用于将该子像素231发出的绿光中的第二旋转方向(右旋)的光线反射回发光层230,并且供第一旋转方向(左旋)的光线通过。
作用波段为红光波段的液晶图案261(R-CLC)覆盖于显示红光的子像素231(R)之上,用于将该子像素231发出的红光中的第二旋转方向(右旋)的光线反射回发光层230,并且供第一旋转方向(左旋)的光线通过。
进一步地,胆甾型液晶层260还包括覆盖于液晶图案261之上的保护层,该保护层的相关特征可以参见前文的相关表述,在此不再赘述。
可选地,在其他实施方式中,多个液晶图案251的作用波段可以相同,并且均为可见光波段。通过以上设置,可以方便加工成型,简化生产工艺,节约成本。此时,多个液晶 图案251中的至少部分可以相连成一个整体结构。
本申请实施例的显示装置200可以按照以下工艺流程制作而成:
1、胆甾型液晶层260的涂布及配向:通过光配向或是液晶自组装使胆甾型液晶层260规则排列达到取向状态,胆甾型液晶层260的厚度在2~5微米。此处所用的胆甾型液晶作用波段为R/G/B其中之一。
2、液晶图案261图形化:在液晶分子取向后,分子按取向排列。此时,将光罩(mask,又称光掩模版)置于液膜上方,诱导取向分子聚合的光源置于光罩上方。此时,只有未被光罩遮挡的部分能够被照射并发生聚合,被光罩遮挡的薄膜未发生聚合,未聚合的单体分子可以用溶剂清洗去除,这样形成了图形化的液晶图案261。在本申请实施例中,未被光罩遮挡即保留的液晶图案261位于对应的子像素上方。
3、重复步骤1、2:根据需要可对R/G/B三个波段的液晶图案261分别进行涂布和图形化,制作过程同步骤1、2,最终可获得3种液晶图案261任意组合。
4、涂布保护层:在制作完液晶图案261的面板上方涂布树脂等OC材料作为保护和平坦化层。
5、贴合圆偏光270与盖板层290:将已制作好的面板与圆偏光片270和盖板层290(例如玻璃盖板)先后贴合。
图12是本申请实施例提供的显示装置200的再一例的结构示意图。如图12所示,在本申请实施例中,胆甾型液晶层260为薄膜状整体结构,并且胆甾型液晶层260作用波段为可见光波段(CLC),通过以上设置有利于节约生产工序,提高生产效率。
进一步地,如图12所示,聚光层250还包括围绕聚光结构251的黑色矩阵252。通过以上设置,黑色矩阵252能够吸收外界环境射入的环境光,进入能够降低装置的反射率,提高装置的对比度。
OLED光源为非准直光源,其光斑在胆甾型液晶层260和发光层230的界面发生两次反射后会显著增大,被黑色矩阵252吸收后会显著影响出光增益,因此设置聚光结构251将OLED发光聚拢可有效减少黑色矩阵252对增益影响。或者也可以减小图形化胆甾型液晶层260(即液晶图案261)面积,降低对外界环境光反射的增加。
图13是本申请实施例提供的显示装置200的再一例的结构示意图。如图13所示,在本实施例中,多个聚光结构251一一对应的覆盖于多个蓝色子像素231之上,胆甾型液晶层260的作用波段包括蓝光波段。也就是说,此时仅提高蓝光的出光效率,有利于节约装置的功耗,并且方便加工。
进一步地,聚光层250还包括围绕聚光结构251的黄色光阻253。黄色光阻253能够供绿光和红光通过,并且吸收其他波段的光线,通过设置黄色光阻253能够降低装置的反射率,提高装置的对比度。
图12或图13所示的显示装置200可以按照以下工艺流程制作而成:
1、形成胆甾型液晶层260:胆甾型液晶层260可由胆甾相液晶与基材组成,于一基材上先涂布配向层,在涂布上胆甾相液晶层,厚度在1~5微米。配向工艺采用摩擦配向或光配向或液晶自组装。胆甾型液晶层260反射作用波段包括R\G\B单独波段或其任意组合,也可包含整个可见光波段。
其中基板可为圆偏光片、三醋酸纤维薄膜(triacetyl cellulose,TAC)、环烯烃聚合物 (cyclo olefin polymer,COP)、玻璃(0.02-0.5毫米)以及复合聚合物膜等。
配向工艺:摩擦配向:系将基材放置于承载平台上,并将涂布配向膜的一面朝上;承载平台与驱动机构结合,并由驱动机构带动承载平台进行直线输送。在基材输送路径上设置表面附设毛布的滚筒。当基材通过滚筒时,滚筒以其底部的切线速度方向与基材的行进方向相反的顺时针方向滚动方式对基板表面的配向膜进行滚动摩擦,经过摩擦配向后的配向膜表面分子将不再杂散分布,而呈现均匀排列的介面条件,使液晶能够依照预定的方向排列。
光配向:属于非接触型配向,利用高精度实时追踪补偿模式的紫外光使得光敏聚合物单体材料发生化学反应产生各向异性,液晶分子与配向膜表面分子相互作用,为了达到能量最小的稳定状态,液晶分子沿着光配向所定义的受力最大方向排列。
2、圆偏光片270和胆甾型液晶层260贴合:若胆甾型液晶层260未直接涂布在圆偏光片270上,则需将胆甾型液晶层260与圆偏光片270的相位补偿膜面通过光学胶或压敏胶(pressure sensitive adhesive,PSA)贴合。
3、黑色矩阵252(又被叫做可见光吸收层):若胆甾型液晶层260作用于整个可见光波段,则在显示屏上表面制备一层黑色光刻胶层,作为吸收层;首先涂布黑色光阻,然后通过黄光工艺形成黑色矩阵252,吸收区与发光层230的非发光区域对应。若胆甾型液晶层260作用于R/G/B其中单一波段,则也可涂布其补色光阻作为吸收层,涂布区域为发光层230的非发光区域。
4、聚光结构:具体制作工艺参见前文的相关表述。
5、贴合圆偏光270与盖板层290:将已制作好的面板与圆偏光片270和盖板层290(例如玻璃盖板)先后贴合,其中胆甾型液晶层260位于显示屏与圆偏光片270之间。
另一方面,本申请实施例还提供了一种电子设备,图14是本申请实施例提供的电子设备1000的结构示意图。如图14所示,电子设备1000包括壳体1100和显示装置1200,显示装置1200安装于壳体1100上。显示装置1200为前述任一实施例提供的显示装置100或者显示装置200。
可选地,电子设备1000为任意具有显示功能的电子产品,包括但不限于手机(例如可折叠手机)、平板电脑、电视、笔记本电脑、电脑显示器、智能手表、车载显示设备、导航仪等。
以上所述,仅为本申请的具体实施方式,但本申请的保护范围并不局限于此,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本申请揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化或替换,都应涵盖在本申请的保护范围之内。因此,本申请的保护范围应以所述权利要求的保护范围为准。
