It is to be understood that, in the present embodiment, the processing unit 50 is connected to the photoelectric conversion unit of the light receiving unit 40 to receive the electric signal transmitted by the photoelectric conversion unit.
In addition, the installation positions and shapes of the first through hole and the second through hole at the terminal in fig. 3 are only examples, and may be determined according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit this.

In a specific implementation, the second through hole may be disposed on the middle frame, the light guide pillar is embedded in the middle frame, and the thin film made of photoelectric material (such as mercury cadmium telluride) is included on the light guide pillar as a photoelectric conversion unit.

In the embodiment of the present invention, alternatively, as shown in fig. 4, the light emitting unit 30 may include a light emitting element 31 and a light guide transparent layer 32 covering the light emitting element 31. That is, the light emitting unit 30 encapsulates the light emitting element 31 through the light guide transparent layer 32.
Like this, the terminal through set up the light emitting component that can carry out two-way transmission in first through-hole, transmit optical signal towards first face and second face simultaneously, can reduce the quantity of arranging of light emitting component in the terminal, resources are saved.
The transparent light guide layer 32 may be made of a transparent light guide material, and has anisotropic light guide properties, such as resin and liquid crystal.
The light emission direction of the light emitting element 31 includes a first light emission direction and a second light emission direction opposite in direction, that is, the light emitting element 31 can perform bidirectional emission.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 4, the light emitting element 31 may include a PNP type triode made of a light emitting material. Further, the light emitting element 31 may include a PNP type triode made of a light emitting material having a radiation efficiency higher than a predetermined value, wherein the predetermined value may be determined according to practical requirements, such as 0.9, and the like, and the embodiment of the invention is not limited thereto.
In addition, in practical applications, the luminescent material may be an infrared luminescent material, but is not limited thereto.
The principle of bidirectional emission of the light emitting element 31 is exemplified below in the principle of infrared bidirectional emission, but it should be understood that the principle of bidirectional emission for other types of light than infrared light is the same as the principle of infrared bidirectional emission.
The common unidirectional infrared light emitting unit (or called as infrared emitting tube) is a diode which is made of a material with high infrared radiation efficiency (commonly used gallium arsenide) into a PN junction and injects current to the PN junction by plus forward bias to excite infrared light. In the direction perpendicular to the PN junction, the intensity of the infrared light emitted from the diode is maximum and then decreases toward both sides, covering only a maximum emission range of 180 °, as shown in fig. 5.
In order to adapt to the use characteristics of the double-sided screen that infrared light is simultaneously emitted towards the front and the back, a PNP structure is adopted in the light emitting unit (or called as an emitting tube), and the PNP structure can be equivalent to two infrared diodes which are connected in series and opposite to each other. According to the light emitting principle of the PN junction, under the forward voltage, electrons are injected into a P region from an N region, and holes are injected into the N region from the P region. A part of the minority carrier (abbreviated as minority carrier) entering the opposite region is recombined with the majority carrier (abbreviated as majority carrier) to emit light, and the process is shown in fig. 6. Since recombination is generated in the minority carrier diffusion region, light is generated only within a few microns near the PN junction, and the position of the P-well and N-well in a specific PNP structure can be referred to in fig. 6.
Additionally, it will be appreciated that in some embodiments, the light emitting element 31 may also represent two serially opposed infrared diodes.

In the embodiment of the invention, the infrared photosensitive function of the double-sided screen can be realized by multiplexing devices, and the key point of the invention is to realize the maximum infrared photosensitive function by using the devices as few as possible. The infrared photosensitive function can be understood as functions of distance detection, proximity detection, ambient light detection and the like, and the infrared photosensitive function can be used for realizing control over the display state of the first screen and/or the second screen.
In order to realize the infrared photosensitive function of the double-sided screen, the embodiment of the invention provides a control method for a terminal. For easy understanding, please refer to fig. 9 to 11 together. It is to be understood that the control method corresponding to fig. 9 may be applied to any of the terminals described above, the control method corresponding to fig. 10 may be applied to a terminal including the light receiving unit 40 of expression one (e.g., the terminal shown in fig. 2), and the control method corresponding to fig. 11 may be applied to a terminal including the light receiving unit 40 of expression two (e.g., the terminal shown in fig. 3).
The control method corresponding to fig. 9 can implement the light detection process of incoming call display, close to screen off, and far from screen on in the target scene. It should be noted that, in the target scene, the intensity values of the light signals detected by the light sensing units (such as the light receiving unit or the end face of the light guide pillar) of the first screen and the second screen of the terminal are substantially the same.
The control method of this embodiment may specifically include the following steps:
step 91, controlling the first screen and the second screen to display the incoming call information under the condition that the incoming call is received.
In this embodiment, after the terminal is connected to the incoming call, the incoming call information can be displayed on the two side screens at the same time to prompt the user to receive the incoming call.
Step 92, detecting the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal.
On the other hand, when receiving an incoming call, the optical transmitting unit emits two optical signals, wherein one optical signal is emitted towards the first surface of the terminal, and the other optical signal is emitted towards the second surface of the terminal. The optical receiving unit receives a first optical signal and a second optical signal, converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal, and converts the second optical signal into a second electrical signal, wherein the first optical signal comprises an optical signal emitted by the optical transmitting unit towards the first surface of the terminal, and the second optical signal comprises an optical signal emitted by the optical transmitting unit towards the second surface of the terminal.
When a user answers an incoming call in a handheld mode (including an earphone mode and a hands-free mode), no matter which side screen of the terminal is close to the user, an optical signal received by the photosensitive unit on the side can be obviously changed, namely, the intensity value of the optical signal can be greatly changed, while the optical signal received by the photosensitive unit on the other side is not obviously changed and is basically close to a bottom noise value, namely, when no shielding object is shielded above the photosensitive unit, the optical intensity value of the optical signal received by the photosensitive unit is basically close to the bottom noise value.
Or, the user places the terminal on the carrying object, and when the user answers the incoming call in the hands-free mode, the light signal received by the light sensing unit at the side of the screen close to the carrying object of the terminal is obviously changed, but the light signal received by the light sensing unit at the side of the screen far from the carrying object is not obviously changed.
Therefore, when a user answers an incoming call through the mode, the intensity values of the optical signals received by the photosensitive unit positioned on the first screen and the photosensitive unit positioned on the second screen of the terminal are different, and the difference can be reflected on the difference of the electric signals converted from the optical signals, so that the first electric signal and the second electric signal can be detected.
And step 93, controlling the second screen to be turned off if the variation of the value of the first electric signal is larger than that of the second electric signal.
In order to improve the accuracy of controlling the display state of the screen, if the variation of the first electrical signal is greater than the variation of the second electrical signal, controlling the second screen to be turned off may be represented as: and if the first variable quantity of the value of the first electric signal is greater than the second variable quantity of the value of the second electric signal, and the difference value of the first variable quantity and the second variable quantity is greater than a third threshold value, controlling the second screen to be turned off.
In a specific implementation, the processing unit may calculate a change amount Δ 1 of the first electrical signal and a change amount Δ 2 of the second electrical signal within a preset time period, and compare Δ 1 and Δ 2 to obtain a comparison result of Δ 1 and Δ 2. It should be noted that the starting time point of the preset time duration is any time point before the user answers the call, and the ending time point is any time point in the process of answering the call by the user. That is, the amount of change in the value of the electric signal may be expressed as an absolute value of a difference between the value of the electric signal detected at any point in time before the incoming call is answered and the value of the electric signal detected at any point in time during the incoming call is answered.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the processing unit may further store a first corresponding relationship between the preset comparison result and the preset determination result.
For example, in the first corresponding relationship, a first preset comparison result and a second preset comparison result may be included, where the first preset comparison result corresponds to a first preset judgment result, and the second preset comparison result corresponds to a second preset judgment result. The first preset comparison result is that the variation of the value of the first electric signal is greater than that of the second electric signal; the second preset comparison result is that the variation of the value of the first electrical signal is smaller than the variation of the value of the second electrical signal.
In this way, after obtaining the comparison result between Δ 1 and Δ 2, the processing unit may search the correspondence relationship, determine a preset determination result corresponding to the comparison result, and feed back the preset determination result to the CPU, so that the CPU executes an operation corresponding to the preset determination result.
It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the CPU may pre-store the second corresponding relationship between the preset determination result and the preset operation.
For example, the second corresponding relationship may include a first predetermined determination result, a second predetermined determination result, and a third predetermined determination result, which are the same as those in the first corresponding relationship, where the first predetermined determination result corresponds to the first predetermined operation, and the second predetermined determination result corresponds to the second predetermined operation. The first preset operation is to control the second screen to be turned off; the second preset operation is to control the first screen to be turned off.
Thus, the CPU can determine the preset operation corresponding to the judgment result fed back by the processing unit by searching for the second corresponding relationship, and execute the preset operation.
Scene one, the change quantity of the value of the first electric signal is larger than the change quantity of the value of the second electric signal.
That is, in this scenario, the comparison result of Δ 1 and Δ 2 is a first preset comparison result, corresponding to a first preset operation, and the second screen may be controlled to be turned off.
Further, after the controlling the second screen to be turned off, the method further includes:
and if the difference value between the value of the first electric signal and the first threshold value is smaller than the first threshold value, controlling the first screen to be turned off, and controlling the first screen to be turned on under the condition that the difference value between the value of the first electric signal and the second threshold value is smaller than the second threshold value.
The first threshold value is used for representing whether the terminal is close to the user or not, and the second threshold value is used for representing whether the terminal is far away from the user or not.
Therefore, when the terminal is detected to be close to the user, the first screen can be controlled to be turned off, and when the terminal is far away from the user, the first screen is controlled to be turned on, so that the terminal can be prevented from being operated by the user in a wrong mode in the process of answering the incoming call, and meanwhile power consumption of the terminal can be reduced.
It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the CPU of the terminal may directly store the third corresponding relationship between the preset comparison result and the preset operation. In this embodiment, after obtaining the comparison result between Δ 1 and Δ 2, the processing unit of the terminal may directly transmit the comparison result to the CPU, so that the CPU determines the preset operation corresponding to the comparison result by searching the third corresponding relationship, and executes the preset operation. Compared with the embodiment, the method and the device can reduce the corresponding relation stored in the terminal, reduce the processing operation and improve the efficiency of the terminal in executing the operation.
And in a second scene, the change quantity of the value of the first electric signal is smaller than that of the second electric signal.
That is, in this scenario, the comparison result of Δ 1 and Δ 2 is a second preset comparison result, corresponding to a second preset operation, and the first screen may be controlled to be turned off. It should be understood that, in this scenario, the control principle of the second screen may refer to the control principle of the first screen in scenario one, and details are not repeated here.
By the control method of the embodiment, the display states of the first screen and the second screen can be controlled based on the light detection process, so that the power consumption of the terminal is reduced.
The control method corresponding to fig. 10 includes the steps of:
step 101, if a target screen of the terminal receives a touch operation, controlling a target light receiving unit arranged on the same surface of the terminal as the target screen to be in an open state, and controlling another light receiving unit of the terminal to be in a closed state.
And 102, adjusting the backlight brightness of the target screen according to the electric signal converted by the target light receiving unit.
It should be understood that the target screen is one of the first screen and the second screen, that is, the target screen may be any one of the first screen and the second screen.
For ease of understanding, the target screen is exemplified as the first screen.
In a specific implementation, if the first screen of the terminal receives a touch operation and the second screen of the terminal does not receive the touch operation, it indicates that the second screen is most likely in a screen-off state, and the CPU may send a control signal to the processing unit to control the first light receiving unit to be in an on state and control the second light receiving unit to be in an off state, so that power consumption of the terminal may be reduced.
In this application scenario, the electrical signal converted by the first light receiving unit is mainly used to adjust the backlight brightness of the first screen, and therefore, it can be understood that the optical signal received by the first light receiving unit is mainly an ambient light signal. Therefore, further, the terminal can further control the light emitting unit to be in the off state, further reducing the power consumption of the terminal.
It should be understood that, in the process of adjusting the backlight brightness of the first screen by the processing unit based on the electrical signal converted by the first light receiving unit, the value of the backlight brightness is proportional to the value of the electrical signal. That is, the stronger the ambient light, the stronger the backlight brightness of the first screen; the weaker the ambient light is, the weaker the backlight brightness of the first screen is, so that the eyesight of a user can be protected, and the use experience of the user is improved.
It should be noted that, if the target screen is the second screen, the adjustment principle of the backlight brightness of the second screen is the same as that of the target screen being the first screen, and the adjustment principle of the backlight brightness of the first screen is not described herein again.
Through the control method of the embodiment, the power consumption of the terminal can be reduced, the eyesight of a user can be protected, and the use experience of the user is improved.
The control method corresponding to fig. 11 includes the steps of:
and step 111, if the target screen of the terminal receives a touch operation, controlling the processing unit to only process the target electric signal converted by the photoelectric conversion unit.
Wherein the target screen is one of a first screen and a second screen; and the light signal corresponding to the target electric signal is received by the end faces of the light guide column and the target screen with the same orientation.
And step 112, adjusting the backlight brightness of the target screen according to the target electric signal.
It is to be understood that the target screen may be any one of the first screen and the second screen.
For ease of understanding, the target screen is exemplified as the first screen.
In a specific implementation, if the first screen of the terminal receives a touch operation and the second screen of the terminal does not receive the touch operation, it indicates that the second screen is most likely in a screen-off state, the CPU may send a control signal to the processing unit, so as to control the processing unit to only process the first electrical signal converted by the photoelectric conversion unit, and ignore or abandon processing of the second electrical signal converted by the photoelectric conversion unit, thereby reducing power consumption of the terminal.
In this application scenario, the first electrical signal is mainly used to adjust the backlight brightness of the first screen, and therefore, it can be understood that the optical signal received by the first light receiving unit is mainly an ambient light signal. Therefore, further, the terminal can further control the light emitting unit to be in the off state, further reducing the power consumption of the terminal.
It should be understood that, in the process of adjusting the backlight brightness of the first screen by the processing unit based on the first electric signal, the value of the backlight brightness is proportional to the value of the electric signal. That is, the stronger the ambient light, the stronger the backlight brightness of the first screen; the weaker the ambient light is, the weaker the backlight brightness of the first screen is, so that the eyesight of a user can be protected, and the use experience of the user is improved.
It should be noted that, if the target screen is the second screen, the adjustment principle of the backlight brightness of the second screen is the same as that of the target screen being the first screen, and the adjustment principle of the backlight brightness of the first screen is not described herein again.
Through the control method of the embodiment, the power consumption of the terminal can be reduced, the eyesight of a user can be protected, and the use experience of the user is improved.
