Description

Liquid crystal lens array, 3 d display device and driving method
Technical field
The present invention relates to free 3 D display technology field, in particular to liquid crystal lens array, 3 d display device and driving method.
Background technology
In 3D stereo display technique, bore hole 3D, because just can watch the advantage in convenience and the application of 3D effect without other utility appliance, becomes the center of gravity of 3D display technique research.In various bore hole 3D display techniques, the auto-stereoscopic display device that adopts liquid crystal lens and liquid crystal slit grating is subject to extensive concern because of distinctive advantage separately.
The 3 d display device that adopts liquid crystal lens to realize, mainly to utilize, on two plate bases of liquid crystal layer both sides, positive and negative electrode is set respectively, and on Different electrodes, apply the driving voltage varying in size, thereby between two plate bases, form the vertical electric field with varying strength, form varifocal liquid crystal lens to drive Liquid Crystal Molecules Alignment.Therefore, the voltage that only need to control in respective electrode distributes, and the index distribution of liquid crystal lens will change accordingly, thereby the distribution of pixel emergent light is controlled, and realizes free stereo demonstration and 2D/3D and freely switches.
As Fig. 1 shows a kind of structural representation of common liquid crystal lens 3 d display device.As shown in Figure 1, existing liquid crystal lens 3 d display device 100 comprises two parts, and wherein Part I 120 is conventional 2D display device, as LCD, OLED etc.; Part II 110 is for being placed in 2D display device 120 liquid crystal lens array 110 before, and both generally paste by periphery or whole attaching process fits together formation auto-stereoscopic display device.Particularly, liquid crystal lens array 110 comprises multiple liquid crystal lens unit (as L1 and L2, only having drawn two lens units as example in figure), and each lens unit (as L1 and L2) has identical structure.Liquid crystal lens array 110 comprises first substrate 101 and second substrate 102, and first substrate 101 and second substrate 102 are just to arranging.On first substrate 101, be provided with the first electrode 103, on second substrate 102, be provided with the second electrode 107.Within each lens unit, taking L1 as example, the first electrode 103 comprise S11, S12, S13 ..., multiple strip electrodes that separate at certain intervals and be arranged in parallel such as S18, S19, the quantity of electrode is generally odd number (describing as an example of nine electrodes example below), the width of each strip electrode be respectively W (S11), W (S12), W (S13) ..., W (S18), W (S19) etc.Generally speaking, strip electrode possesses identical width, i.e. W (S11)=W (S12)=W (S13)=...=W (S18)=W (S19).Share same strip electrode S19 (S21) in joint, two liquid crystal lens unit (between L1 and L2).Further, liquid crystal lens array 110 also comprises the dielectric layer 104 being arranged on the first electrode 103; Be arranged on the second alignment film 108 on the second electrode 107 and be arranged on the first alignment film 105 on dielectric layer 104 for controlling the orientation of liquid crystal molecule, wherein the first alignment film 105 is parallel with the frictional direction of the second alignment film 108, and liquid crystal material 106 is encapsulated between first substrate 101 and second substrate 102.
As shown in Figure 1, in the time that needs carry out 2D demonstration, make liquid crystal lens array 110 in off working state, or make voltage difference between the first electrode 103 and the second electrode 107 be less than the threshold voltage of liquid crystal material 106, now the molecular orientation of liquid crystal material 106 is still initial orientation.(be △ ε=ε ∥-ε ⊥ >0 with positivity liquid crystal material, in formula, ε ∥ is the dielectric coefficient of long axis of liquid crystal molecule direction, ε ⊥ is the dielectric coefficient of liquid crystal molecule short-axis direction) be example, the major axis of all liquid crystal molecules is regularly arranged along the direction that is parallel to paper.From the light of 2D display panel outgoing, after impinging perpendicularly on liquid crystal layer 106, there is no optical path difference, also do not reflect, what therefore audience saw is still 2D picture, due to the high permeability of liquid crystal lens array 110, whole liquid crystal lens 3 d display device 100 still possesses the feature such as high brightness, high contrast, and the optical characteristics of former 2D display device 120 is substantially unaffected.
As shown in Figure 2, in the time that needs carry out 3D demonstration, at each strip electrode of the first electrode 103 of liquid crystal lens array 110 as S11, S12, S13, S18, on S19 (taking lens unit L1 as example) etc., apply symmetrical voltage, the second electrode 107 as public power extremely voltage be set to zero, taking positivity liquid crystal material as example, can make V (S11)=V (S19) >V (S12)=V (S18) >V (S13)=V (S17) >V (S14)=V (S16) >V (S15), the voltage minimum applying on the central electrode S15 of liquid crystal lens unit, and at the edge electrodes S11 of lens unit, the voltage maximum applying on S19, voltage from lens center to rims of the lens on each strip electrode distributes with certain gradient.Due to the voltage maximum applying on lens unit edge electrodes, the liquid crystal molecule corresponding with edge electrodes S11 and S19 position substantially presents vertical direction and distributes, and less the closer to the center voltage of lens unit, therefore liquid crystal molecule can tend to horizontal direction arrangement gradually.In each lens unit, because voltage symmetry distributes, liquid crystal material is along with the variation of electric field intensity presents the gradual change of refractive index, thereby whole liquid crystal lens array 110 forms multiple lenticules, to reflect light splitting from the light of 2D display device 120, the image of right and left eyes is projected to respectively to audience's left eye and right eye, thereby produces stereopsis.Taking two viewpoints in Fig. 2 as example, when distributing, audience's right and left eyes is positioned at 1 and can see stereopsis when 2 position.
As Fig. 3, for common liquid crystal lens 3 d display device, because audience's right and left eyes corresponds respectively to the left and right two width images of cutting apart in space, in the time that each liquid crystal lens unit of liquid crystal lens array 110 and the row pixel of 2D display device 120 arrange according to certain angle θ, for utilizing the left and right two width image co-registration that space is cut apart to obtain 3D image, this 3 d display device has all been sacrificed certain resolution in x direction or y direction.
