Technical field
Disclosed invention is related to one or more of absorption compounds, it can be with one or more polymeric substrates Combination, to set on an electronic device or combine in the electronic device, is included on the display screen of electronic equipment.
Background technology
Electronic digit equipment usually launches the spectrum being made of the light of different wave length, and wherein human eye is able to detect that about 350 nanometers (nm) is to the visible spectrum between about 700 nanometers (nm).It has realized that this light (in visible range and invisible In both scopes) some features user may be harmful to, and cause healthy symptom and unfavorable health reaction, it is such as but unlimited In eye fatigue, eyes drying and stimulation, fatigue, eye-blurred and headache.Exposed to the blue light found in the electronic device There may be contacting between human health risk, the risk to the potential hazard of eyes is especially in the presence of.Some think, cruelly It is exposed under the light that such as digital device screen of visible ray of blue light and/or high-energy is sent and may result in age-dependent macula lutea The problems such as denaturation, the melatonin levels reduced, Acute Retinal infringement, retina accelerated ageing and interruption of cardiac rhythm. In addition research may disclose the other muscle skeleton problem being exposed to for a long time caused by under blue spectrum.
More specifically, it is known that by visible (HEV) light of high-energy of digital device transmitting than other wavelength in visible spectrum Increase eye fatigue.Blue light can reach deeper place in eyes with ratio such as ultraviolet light, and retina may be caused Infringement.In addition, expose age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in blue light also likely to be present cause and effect pass between cataract development System.Furthermore it is known that eye fatigue symptom can be caused using digital electronic device.This infringement is considered as by penetrating macular pigment HEV light caused by, this causes faster retina to change.
In addition, blue light exposure is to taking off black sharp about twice that is suppressed to green light and with twice of change circadian rhythm.Blue light ripple Long light is seemingly most destructive at night.Research is it is also shown that blue frequencies and the LED of the electronic equipment such as smart phone Similarly the efficiency in terms of photoreceptor death is caused is 50 to 80 times higher than green light for those produced.Seem exposed to blue spectrum Than other regions more rapidly AMD of visible spectrum.However, also suspect may also be brought exposed to feux rouges and green spectrum it is strong Health risk, this can be mitigated by absorbing the light in the wave-length coverage produced by equipment.
In addition, eye care professional pays special attention to ultraviolet A (UVA) light (in the range of 320nm to 380nm).UVA light Damaging is considered to have, because it directly affects the crystalline lens of human eye.In one embodiment, film 200 according to by The standard of world security equipment association setting, is particularly ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2010 standards to reduce high-energy visible ray, It has weighed spectral sensitivity of the eyes to the spectral emittance in the range of 380nm to 1400nm.
Although the light produced by the LED from digital device is seemingly normal for human vision, by this Also launch the strong blue light peak in 380 nanometers to 500 nanometer ranges in the white-light spectrum that the screen of kind digital device produces.Due to This blue light is corresponding with the known spectra for retina harm, it is therefore desirable to protects users from the hand exposed to this light Section.
