Definitions
- One embodiment of the present invention relates to a radio wave reflector.
- the radio wave reflector described in Patent Document 1 has wiring arranged around it to generate a potential difference between the electrodes of the liquid crystal element and change the dielectric constant of the liquid crystal element.
- the binder resin may be, in addition to acrylic resin, for example, epoxy-based resin, polyester-based resin, polyurethane-based resin, phenol-based resin, melamine-based resin, rubber-based resin, etc.
- the sealant 51 may contain a phosphoric acid compound such as an arylsulfonic acid, such as phenylphosphonic acid, phenylphosphonic acid dichloride, an alkylphosphonic acid, such as methylphosphonic acid, ethylphosphonic acid, octylphosphonic acid, propylphosphonic acid, or a polyfunctional phosphonic acid, such as hydroxyethanediphosphonic acid, nitrotrimethylenephosphonic acid.
- a phosphoric acid compound such as an arylsulfonic acid, such as phenylphosphonic acid, phenylphosphonic acid dichloride, an alkylphosphonic acid, such as methylphosphonic acid, ethylphosphonic acid, octylphosphonic acid, prop
- the transistor Tr is, for example, a thin film transistor (TFT).
- TFT thin film transistor
- the incident wave IW is assumed to be incident perpendicularly to the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 30, from the first substrate 20 side to the second substrate 30 side, i.e., in the -Z direction.
- the incident wave IW incident at the position of the patch electrode 21a shown in FIG. 2 is assumed to be incident wave IW1
- the incident wave IW incident at the position of the patch electrode 21b adjacent to the patch electrode 21a is assumed to be IW2.
- those not reflected by the patch electrodes 21a and 21b travel in the -Z direction through the liquid crystal layer 40.
- the opposing ground electrodes 31a and 31b are set to have different potentials.
- the propagation speed of electromagnetic waves in a medium varies depending on the dielectric constant, and the dielectric constant of liquid crystal is proportional to the potential difference, so the propagation speed differs between the incident waves IW2-1 and IW2-2 traveling through the liquid crystal layer 40.
- the incident waves IW2-1 and IW2-2 are reflected by the ground electrodes 31a and 31b, and the reflected reflected waves RW1-1 and RW1-2 each travel in the +Z direction through the liquid crystal layer 40.
- the propagation speed differs between the reflected waves RW1-1 and RW1-2 traveling through the liquid crystal layer 40.
- the positions of the wavefronts of the same phase of the reflected waves RW1-1 and RW1-2 that travel through the liquid crystal layer 40 and return to the patch electrodes 21a and 21b differ due to the difference in propagation speed.
- reflected wave RW1-1 is ahead of reflected wave RW1-2.
- the patch electrodes 21 and ground electrodes 31 are arranged in a grid pattern in the X and Y directions, so that the direction of the reflected wave RW can be tilted in the desired direction in the Y direction by applying different voltages between adjacent ground electrodes 31 in the Y direction.
- the incident wave IW incident on the peripheral area EA of the radio wave reflector 1 according to this embodiment shown in FIG. 8 is absorbed by the sealing material 51 that covers the wiring EM, making it difficult for unintended reflected waves to occur. For this reason, unintended reflected waves are unlikely to have effects such as attenuating the phase-adjusted reflected wave RW, disrupting the phase of the reflected wave RW, or interfering with the reflected wave RW.
- a radio wave reflector 2 according to another embodiment of the present invention has a notch provided in a part of the sealant surrounding the liquid crystal layer 40. The following mainly describes the differences from the radio wave reflector 1 according to the first embodiment.
- FIG. 9 shows an arrow view of the radio wave reflector 2 cut along a plane parallel to the same XY plane as FIG. 4.
- a notch 52C is provided in the sealing material 52.
- the notch 52C is formed to a size that prevents the liquid crystal of the liquid crystal layer 40 from leaking out, for example, 5 mm to 10 mm.
- the shape, size, number, etc. of the notch 52C are not limited to those described above, and may be modified in various ways as long as the liquid crystal contained in the sealed liquid crystal layer 40 does not leak out.
- the sealing material 53 of this embodiment does not contain a conductive material. If the sealing material 53 contains a conductive material, it is desirable to coat the surfaces of the bias signal line 32, the selection signal line 33, the electrodes of the connector 61, and the circuit elements 62 with an insulating paint.
- the circuit elements 62 on the second substrate 30 generate electromagnetic waves, which are noise.
- the radio wave reflector 3 the bias signal line 32, selection signal line 33, connector 61, and circuit elements 62 on the second substrate 30, which are the noise sources, are covered with a sealing material 52, which is a resin containing magnetic powder. Therefore, with the radio wave reflector 3, the phase of the reflected wave RW (see Figure 1) is less likely to be disturbed.
- the sealing material 53 may contain substances that have properties such as moisture resistance, waterproofness, light resistance, and dust resistance.
- the radio wave reflecting plate 4 according to the modified example is provided with a bank 52B for stabilizing the shape of the sealing material.
- the following mainly describes the differences from the radio wave reflecting plate 1 according to the first embodiment.
- a bank 52B is provided in the peripheral area EA, preferably near the boundary between the peripheral area EA and the active area AA.
- the bank 52B has a surface that extends perpendicularly to the second substrate 30, and is formed in the shape of a wall that surrounds the liquid crystal layer 40.
- the sealant 51 When the sealant 51 is filled, it comes into contact with the outer surface of the bank 52B, and the bank 52B prevents the sealant 51 from entering the active area AA. Therefore, with the radio wave reflector 4, the sealant 51 can be filled to a position closer to the boundary between the peripheral area EA and the active area AA than in the case where the bank 52B is not present. Note that since it is sufficient for the bank 52B to prevent the sealant 51 from entering the active area AA, a portion of the bank 52B may be disposed in the active area AA.
- radio wave reflector As an example, but the scope of application of the present invention is not limited to radio wave reflectors.
