Embodiment
Describe the specific embodiment of the present invention in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
AMOLED (full name: Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode, active matrix organic light-emitting diode) display floater is a kind of special film Display Technique, it is luminous that it depends on electroluminescent organic material, this luminous organic material is by two electrode clampings, and this two electrode provides lights the required electric energy of display floater.As long as electrode is applied suitable voltage and current, luminous organic material both sides up and down is luminous.Defined display pixel and simultaneously go up the active matrix (active matrix) that is provided with in the display floater two sides arbitrarily.All layers in this display floater comprise electrode, luminous organic material, conducting polymer, TFT (thin film transistor, thin-film transistor) matrix and substrate, can make the form of film.AMOLED does not need the layer of polarizer used in LCD or the TFT LCD display floater, therefore can be made for light transparent.
AMOLED display floater and solar panels the two all need a substrate that mechanical support is provided, and considers and this, and the present invention proposes to make these two modules share a transparency carrier.
As shown in Figure 1, be to constitute that AMOLED of the present invention shows and the concrete configuration of the main material layer of the integration module of solar cell.It comprises a transparency carrier of sharing, and the two provides mechanical support for AMOLED display part and solar cell part.This substrate one side is disposed with transparent AMOLED anode and TFT matrix, transparent organic membrane and transparent AMOLED negative electrode, and they constitute transparent AMOLED display part jointly.Wherein, transparent organic membrane comprises the conductive layer that emission layer that luminous organic material makes and conducting polymer are made.The electrode of this transparency carrier one side can directly deposit on this substrate together with the TFT matrix.This substrate opposite side is provided with before at least one solar cell (photovoltaic cells) and the transparent solar panels conductor behind the conductor and opaque solar panels, constitutes the solar cell part jointly.Wherein, described solar cell is clipped in before the transparent solar panels behind the conductor and opaque solar panels between the conductor.Conductor has constituted solar cell and extraneous being electrically connected behind preceding conductor of these transparent solar panels and the opaque solar panels, and solar cell provides voltage, electric current output thus.Conductor is arranged between described solar cell and the transparency carrier before these solar panels, and it is transparent, allows light to pass through to arrive solar cell.And because all light of coming from the transparency carrier transmission have been absorbed by solar cell, thereby conductor can be set to transparently behind these solar panels, and this can reduce product cost.
Transparent AMOLED negative electrode one side of this integration module provides displaying contents to watch for it towards the beholder.Surround lighting is also from this side incident, by the transparent AMOLED display part that constitutes by the multi-layer transparent material, the light that sends together with this transparent AMOLED display part by conductor before transparent shared substrate, the transparent solar panels, arrives solar cell together, is converted to electric energy by solar cell.
Dissimilar solar panel technology has different conversion efficiencies and overall dimension.The present invention can adopt various types of solar panel technology to implement, and is transparent as long as the AMOLED display part is made into.For example, in order to reduce the integral thickness of described integration module, can adopt thin-film solar cells (TFPV) or other organic solar batteries; When mechanical dimension given and when higher output energy need be provided, also can adopt the high performance solar batteries of other types.
Transparent shared substrate also can adopt various available materials, but arrives the solar cell part in order to allow from the light of AMOLED display part or from the light of equipment external environment, and this substrate is necessary for transparent.
Because the AMOLED display part is transparent, thereby the color of solar cell part will influence the outward appearance that the beholder is presented in the display part.The solar cell part is preferably made black or near black, is made the beholder can't see solar cell part and concrete structure thereof.Thus, conductor behind solar cell and the opaque solar panels can be made black or near black, can also the affix diffuser so that show the outward appearance unanimity.Described diffuser can be arranged on any one deck between solar cell and the AMOLED display part, and it can not influence picture quality.Solar cell is partly made black or near black, except the better outward appearance impression of beholder can be provided, can also be improved the conversion efficiency of solar cell, for displaying contents provides contrast preferably.
In addition, the energy that the solar cell portions branch produces is relevant with the light luminance on being applied to it, thereby the output of voltage and current also can change.This just needs electric pressure converter and pressurizer, can be used for charging to the electronic equipment internal main battery to guarantee electric energy output.Electric pressure converter and pressurizer can be made on the same silicon chip of the TFT matrix that forms the display part.In order not influence outward appearance, the edge that the electrical connection between AMOLED display part and solar cell portions are divided and other circuit parts preferably are arranged at described integration module.
The electric energy that described integration module produced can be supplied to the equipment that uses this AMOLED display part.When described integration module output electric energy during, can adopt as shown in Figure 2 energy management chip or module, with suitable management with distribute electric energy from described integration module, equipment main battery or device external power supply to the circuitry part.
When electronic equipment during not in user mode, the electric energy that described integration module produced is used to inner main battery trickle charge, to prolong equipment service time.
Below only be concrete exemplary applications of the present invention, protection scope of the present invention is not constituted any limitation.All employing equivalents or equivalence are replaced and the technical scheme of formation, all drop within the rights protection scope of the present invention.
