Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be arbitrarily combined with each other without conflict.
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a structure of a reflective type LCD. The structure of the liquid crystal display device comprises a circular polarizer with a compensation Film, a CF (Color Filter) substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a TFT (Thin Film transistor) substrate and a reflective metal layer (not shown in the figure). Under the voltage opening state, the liquid crystal is twisted by 90 degrees, and natural light is reflected back to display a bright state; in the voltage-off state, the liquid crystal is twisted and aligned, and natural light cannot be reflected to show a dark state. However, the reflective display has a low reflectivity due to the introduction of CF, and has a problem of low brightness when natural light is used as a light source, and if a front light source is used as a light source, the power consumption is relatively high.
To solve the technical problem of low brightness of the existing reflective LCD, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a reflective array substrate, which includes a substrate, an array structure layer and a structure color layer stacked in sequence, wherein the structure color layer includes a structure layer, the structure layer includes a plurality of structure arrays, each structure array includes a plurality of sub-arrays, each sub-array corresponds to one sub-pixel, each sub-array is composed of a plurality of nano-pillars with the same height, and each sub-array is used for reflecting one color light.
Each sub-array corresponds to one sub-pixel, that is, each sub-array corresponds to a pixel electrode of the array structure layer, and the projection of the sub-array on the substrate may be greater than or equal to the projection of the pixel electrode on the substrate.
In an exemplary embodiment, the structural color layer may further include a protective layer on the structural layer.
In an exemplary embodiment, the structural layer is implemented using a super-surface structure.
In an exemplary embodiment, each sub-array has the same size, and in order to enable different sub-arrays in the same structural array to emit light of different colors, the specifications of the nano-pillars in each sub-array need to be adjusted, that is, the nano-pillars in a plurality of sub-arrays in one structural array are all different in design, in one design manner, for any two sub-arrays in one structural array, the nano-pillars in the two sub-arrays have the same size (the height and the diameter of the nano-pillars are the same), but the arrangement periods are different (that is, the inter-pillar intervals are different), that is, the number of the nano-pillars in each sub-array in one structural array is different. In another design, for any two sub-arrays in a structural array, the nano-pillars of the two sub-arrays have different sizes (e.g., the heights are the same, and the diameters of the nano-pillars are different), the arrangement period may be the same, and the number of the nano-pillars in each sub-array is also different.
For example, the period of the nano-pillars in the sub-array for reflecting red light is 160 to 300nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80 to 150nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 80 to 150 nm; the period of the nano-pillars in the sub-array for reflecting the green light is 240-450 nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80-150 nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 80-150 nm; the period of the nano-pillars in the subarray for reflecting blue light is 320-600 nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80-150 nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 80-150 nm; or
The period of the nano-pillars in the subarray for reflecting red light is 150-200 nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80-150 nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 100-130 nm; the period of the nano-pillars in the sub-array for reflecting the green light is 150 to 200nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80 to 150nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 70 to 100 nm; the period of the nano-pillars in the subarray for reflecting blue light is 150 to 200nm, the height of the nano-pillars is 80 to 150nm, and the structural width of the nano-pillars is 40 to 70 nm.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural view of a reflective LCD according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 2, a main structure of the reflective LCD according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first substrate 1 and a second substrate 2 facing each other, a liquid crystal 3 is filled between the first substrate 1 and the second substrate 2, and the second substrate 2 includes a base substrate 20 and an electrode layer 21 (e.g., a common electrode layer) formed on the base substrate 20. The first substrate 1 is an array substrate and comprises a substrate 10, an array structure layer 11 and a structure color layer 12, wherein the array structure layer 11 is arranged on one surface of the substrate 10 facing the second substrate 2, and the structure color layer 12 is arranged on one side of the array structure layer 11 departing from the substrate 10. In the present embodiment, the reflective LCD is backlit by ambient light, the structural color layer 12 is used to reflect the ambient light and convert the ambient light into light of different colors, and the reflective LCD is backlit by the ambient light, so as to realize the display of color images. According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the structural color layer is adopted to replace the color film layer, so that the reflectivity and the display brightness can be improved, the process flow is reduced, and the cost is saved compared with the scheme of using the color film layer. Because the ambient light is used as the backlight, the efficiency can be reduced compared with the scheme of using a front light source as a light source.
The LCD may be classified into a Twisted Nematic (TN) display mode, an In Plane Switching (IPS) display mode, a Fringe Field Switching (FFS) display mode, and an Advanced Super Dimension Switching (ADS) display mode, etc., according to the display mode. The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is described below by taking a TN display mode reflective LCD as an example, but the application of the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the present disclosure may be applied to reflective LCDs of other display modes.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a reflective array substrate according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the reflective array substrate of the present embodiment includes a substrate 10, an array structure layer 11 disposed on a front surface of the substrate 10, and a structure color layer 12 disposed on a surface of the array structure layer 11 facing away from the substrate. In this embodiment, "front" refers to the surface of the reflective LCD that faces the viewer when in use, from which ambient light is incident, and "back" refers to the surface that faces away from the viewer. The structural color layer 12 includes a structural layer 121 and a protective layer 122. The structure layer 121 is disposed on the front surface of the array structure layer 11, and the protective layer 122 is disposed on the structure layer 121 for protecting the structure layer. The array structure layer 11 includes a gate electrode 111, a gate insulating layer 112, an active layer 113, a source/drain electrode 114, a passivation layer 115, a pixel electrode 116, and a planarization layer 117, which are sequentially disposed on the substrate 10, and the pixel electrode is connected to the source electrode or the drain electrode through a via hole formed in the passivation layer. Wherein the gate electrode, the active layer and the source and drain electrodes form a thin film transistor. Through the switch of the thin film transistor, data signal voltages with different sizes are respectively input to each pixel, and the rotation states of liquid crystal molecules under different voltages are different, so that different emergent light brightness is realized. A voltage is applied across the liquid crystal molecules via the pixel electrode 116 and the electrode layer 21.
The reflective array substrate of the embodiment further comprises a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines formed on the substrate, wherein each row of gate lines is vertically intersected with each column of data lines, a plurality of pixel regions arranged in an array are formed on the substrate, each region of pixels is provided with a thin film transistor and a pixel electrode, the gate lines are used for providing scanning signals for the corresponding thin film transistors, and the thin film transistors are conducted in response to the scanning signals of the gate lines, so that voltages from the data lines are applied to the pixel electrodes.
The embodiment of the disclosure is realized based on the F-B interference principle, and determines the color of the reflected light by using the interference effect, that is, when a certain color light is interfered and is constructive, other color lights are destructive to interfere, and the formula for constructive and destructive interference is as follows:
Figure BDA0002954917560000071
where Δ L is an optical path difference, e is a thickness of the incident layer, n' is a refractive index of the air layer, n is a refractive index of the incident layer, λ is a wavelength of light, i is an incident angle, and K is an interference order.
The coherent light wave intensity (I) can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002954917560000072
wherein I1And I2The light intensities of two lines of light waves respectively,
Figure BDA0002954917560000073
is the phase difference between the phase difference and the phase difference,
Figure BDA0002954917560000074
referred to as the interference factor.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of the principle of interference, where the distance between the first surface and the second surface is D, the refractive index of the medium 1 between the first surface and the second surface is n1, the refractive index of the medium 2 above the second surface is n2, the light ray a emitted to the second surface reflects the light ray D at the second surface, and the light ray a refracts the light ray C emitted from the second surface through the medium 1 at the second surface, and with reference to equation 1, when the optical path between the light ray C and the light ray D is an integer multiple of the wavelength of the light ray, the light ray interference is constructive, and when the optical path is an integer multiple of the wavelength of the light ray 1/2, the light ray interference cancellation occurs.
In the disclosed embodiment, structure layer 121 may be implemented using a super surface. Based on the principle that the super-surface structure can change the refractive index, color display with high uniformity can be realized. According to the refractive index difference of the super-surface with different structures, based on the formula 1, only light with fixed wavelength (such as red light, green light or blue light) can be reflected by the super-surface (i.e. interference constructive) by adopting the super-surface structure with different refractive indexes.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a reflective display structure provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, in which super surface structures of different specifications are fabricated on the array structure layer 11, and based on the F-B principle, RGB display with different colors can be implemented, so as to replace a conventional CF layer in an original structure, avoid brightness loss, and have the advantages of high reflectivity and high brightness.
Fig. 6 is a schematic top view of a super-surface structure corresponding to one pixel (including three sub-pixels RGB), and fig. 6 shows a structure array including a plurality of sub-arrays (shown as R sub-array, G sub-array, and B sub-array), each sub-array corresponding to one sub-pixel, for implementing reflection of light of one color. In this embodiment, each subarray may be composed of a different number of nano-pillars, the nano-pillars may be on the order of half a wavelength (e.g., hundreds of nanometers), and the height of the nano-pillars in each subarray is the same. The nanopillars may be cylindrical. The cross-section of the nano-pillars may be square or may be rectangular. The super surface material can be a material with high reflectivity, such as silver (Ag), and can also function as a reflective metal layer.
Fig. 7 to 9 are examples of structural layers for implementing different color displays in the embodiment of the present disclosure, where fig. 7 is a cross-sectional example of a sub-array reflecting red light (R), and specifications of nano-pillars in a super-surface structure corresponding to the reflecting red light are as follows: the period of the nanopillars is 160 to 300nm, the period being used to define a space between adjacent two nanopillars, the height of the nanopillars (i.e., the nanopillar height) is 80 to 150nm, and the structural width of the nanopillars (i.e., the diameter of the nanopillars) is 80 to 150 nm. Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional example of a sub-array reflecting green light (G), and the specifications of the nano-pillars in the super-surface structure corresponding to the green light reflection are: the period is 240-450 nm, the height is 80-150 nm, and the structure width is 80-150 nm; fig. 9 is a cross-sectional view of a subarray reflecting blue light (B), where the specifications of the nano-pillars in the super-surface structure corresponding to the reflected blue light are: the period is 320-600 nm, the height is 80-150 nm, and the structure width is 80-150 nm.
The arrangement of fig. 6 to 9 is merely an example. Besides the above, under the condition of a certain height, the reflection of different colors can be realized by changing the specification of the nano-pillar structures in different sub-pixels. The period of the nano-pillar structure is unchanged, the larger the diameter of the nano-pillar corresponding to different colors is, the half-peak width red shift is, that is, the wider the nano-pillar reflecting red light is compared with the nano-pillar reflecting green light. For example, when the period of the nanopillar is 150 to 200nm, the structure width of the nanopillar reflecting red light is 100 to 130nm, the structure width of the nanopillar reflecting green light is 70 to 100nm, and the structure width of the nanopillar reflecting blue light is 40 to 70 nm. The heights of the nano-columns reflecting the three colors are the same and are all 80 to 150 nm. The above is merely an example, and in practical application, the range may be adjusted based on factors such as the structure of each film layer, the material, and the period of the nano structure, so as to ensure the reflection effect.
The technical solution of this embodiment is described below through the array substrate preparation process.
