Detailed Description
It should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings in connection with embodiments.
It is noted that all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs unless otherwise indicated.
In the present invention, unless otherwise indicated, terms of orientation such as "upper, lower, top, bottom" are used generally with respect to the orientation shown in the drawings or with respect to the component itself in the vertical, upright or gravitational direction; also, for ease of understanding and description, "inner and outer" refers to inner and outer relative to the profile of each component itself, but the above-mentioned orientation terms are not intended to limit the present invention.
In order to solve the problem that in the prior art, the switching of the structured light projection mode and the flight time projection mode of different application scenes is difficult, the invention provides an integrated device, a projection module and a manufacturing process.
As shown in fig. 1, the integrated optical device includes a protective layer 10, a first adhesive layer 20, a second adhesive layer 30, and a fixing layer 40, which are sequentially stacked, and further includes a diffraction structure 21 and a light homogenizing structure 31; wherein, the diffraction structure 21 is disposed on the first adhesive layer 20, the light homogenizing structure 31 is disposed on the second adhesive layer 30, and the projections of the diffraction structure 21 and the light homogenizing structure 31 to the fixed layer 40 are not overlapped; or the diffraction structure 21 is arranged on the second glue layer 30, the dodging structure 31 is arranged on the first glue layer 20, and the projections of the diffraction structure 21 and the dodging structure 31 to the fixed layer 40 are not overlapped.
By providing the diffraction structure 21 on the first glue layer 20 and the light homogenizing structure 31 on the second glue layer 30, one integrated optical device has both a diffraction function and a light homogenizing function. Therefore, one integrated optical device can perform structured light projection and flight time projection, effectively reduces the volumes of the two devices, and enables the devices to meet the requirement of miniaturization. The projections of the diffraction structure 21 and the dodging structure 31 to the fixed layer 40 are not coincident, so that the diffraction structure 21 and the dodging structure 31 are separately arranged, the diffraction structure 21 and the dodging structure 31 can be used independently, and interference between the diffraction structure 21 and the dodging structure 31 is avoided. Meanwhile, the switching between the structured light projection and the flight time projection can be more convenient. Of course, the diffraction structure 21 may also be disposed on the second adhesive layer 30, and the light homogenizing structure 31 is disposed on the first adhesive layer 20.
Specifically, the fixing layer 40 includes a connection adhesive layer 41 and a substrate layer 42, and the second adhesive layer 30 is connected to the substrate layer 42 through the connection adhesive layer 41. Through setting up and connecting glue film 41 for the second glue film 30 is more firm with the connection of stratum basale 42, increases overall structure intensity, plays simultaneously and accepts the effect of device, makes the device more stable in the use, reduces the risk that second glue film 30 breaks away from with stratum basale 42.
Specifically, the material of the protective layer 10 includes one of polyethylene terephthalate or glass. Through the material of the protective layer 10 is polyethylene terephthalate or glass, the polyethylene terephthalate or glass can play a role in bearing and protecting the device, so that the device is firmer, the abrasion to the first adhesive layer 20 can be effectively reduced, the service life of the device is effectively prolonged, meanwhile, the packaging procedure is reduced, and the processing time is saved. Of course, the protection layer 10 may be made of other materials with bearing and protecting functions.
Specifically, the material of the base layer 42 includes one of polyethylene terephthalate or glass. By using polyethylene terephthalate or glass as the material of the base layer 42, the base layer 42 can function as a carrier, so that the device can be effectively fixed, and the device is more stable in use. Of course, the base layer 42 may be formed of other materials having a carrier.
Specifically, the refractive index n1 of the first glue layer 20 is greater than the refractive index n2 of the second glue layer 30. By controlling the difference between the refractive index n1 of the first glue layer 20 and the refractive index n2 of the second glue layer 30, it can be ensured that all effective light rays are injected into the diffraction structure 21, so that the diffraction structure 21 has good diffraction performance, and thus the integrated optical device 50 can be ensured to have good structural light projection performance.
Specifically, the refractive index n2 of the second glue layer 30 is smaller than the refractive index n3 of the connection glue layer 41. By controlling the difference between the refractive index n2 of the second glue layer 30 and the refractive index n3 of the connection glue layer 41, it can be ensured that the effective light is totally injected into the light homogenizing structure 31, so that the light homogenizing structure 31 has good light homogenizing performance, and thus the integrated optical device 50 can be ensured to have good time-of-flight projection performance.
Specifically, the thickness of the first adhesive layer 20 is 1 micron or more and 10 microns or less. If the thickness of the first adhesive layer 20 is less than 1 micron, the diffraction structure 21 is not easy to be assembled in the first adhesive layer 20, and meanwhile, the function of connecting the protective layer 10 and the second adhesive layer 30 cannot be achieved, if the thickness of the first adhesive layer 20 is greater than 10 microns, the thickness of the first adhesive layer 20 is increased, the first adhesive layer 20 is easy to influence the transmission of light, and meanwhile, the requirement of miniaturization cannot be met. Limiting the thickness of the first glue layer 20 to a range of 1 to 10 microns ensures that the diffraction structure 21 can be stably assembled into the first glue layer 20 while serving to connect the protective layer 10 with the second glue layer 30.
Specifically, the thickness of the second adhesive layer 30 is 10 micrometers or more and 100 micrometers or less. If the thickness of the second glue layer 30 is smaller than 10 micrometers, the light homogenizing structure 31 is not easy to be assembled in the second glue layer 30, and meanwhile, the effect of connecting the first glue layer 20 with the connecting glue layer 41 cannot be achieved, and if the thickness of the second glue layer 30 is larger than 100 micrometers, the thickness of the second glue layer 30 is increased, the second glue layer 30 is easy to influence the light transmission, and meanwhile, the requirement of miniaturization cannot be met. Limiting the thickness of the second glue layer 30 to a range of 10 micrometers to 100 micrometers ensures that the light homogenizing structure 31 can be stably assembled into the second glue layer 30 and simultaneously plays a role of connecting the first glue layer 20 with the connecting glue layer 41.
Specifically, the thickness of the joint compound layer 41 is 10 micrometers or more and 100 micrometers or less. If the thickness of the connection adhesive layer 41 is less than 10 micrometers, the function of connecting the second adhesive layer 30 with the substrate layer 42 cannot be achieved, and if the thickness of the connection adhesive layer 41 is greater than 100 micrometers, the thickness of the connection adhesive layer is increased, so that the connection adhesive layer 41 is easy to influence the transmission of light rays, and meanwhile, the requirement of miniaturization cannot be met. Limiting the thickness of the connection glue layer 41 to a range of 10 micrometers to 100 micrometers can effectively ensure the transmission of light in the connection glue layer 41 and simultaneously play a role in connecting the second glue layer 30 with the substrate layer 42.
Specifically, the diffraction structure 21 is a diffraction grating, and the line width of the diffraction grating is 100 nm or more and 500 nm or less. If the line width of the diffraction grating is smaller than 100 nanometers, the brightness of the diffraction result is not obvious and is not easy to observe, and if the line width of the diffraction grating is larger than 500 nanometers, the brightness distribution of the diffraction result is uneven. The line width of the diffraction grating is limited to be in the range of 100 nanometers and 500 nanometers, so that a diffraction result with obvious brightness and uniform distribution can be obtained, and the performance of the diffraction structure 21 is ensured.
Specifically, the depth of the diffraction grating is 500 nm or more and 1500 nm or less. If the depth of the diffraction grating is less than 500 nm, the diffraction grating is not suitable for processing, and processing cost is increased, and if the depth of the diffraction grating is greater than 1500 nm, the assemblability of the diffraction structure 21 and the first adhesive layer 20 is affected. Limiting the depth of the diffraction grating to a range of 500 nm and 1500 nm allows the diffraction structure 21 to be stably assembled in the first adhesive layer 20 while reducing the processing difficulty.
It should be noted that the diffraction grating is uniformly distributed on the first adhesive layer 20.
Specifically, the light homogenizing structure 31 is disposed on the second adhesive layer 30, the light homogenizing structure 31 includes a plurality of microlenses 311, the plurality of microlenses 311 are disposed on a side of the second adhesive layer 30 near the fixing layer 40, and the microlenses 311 are connected to the fixing layer 40. By connecting the micro lenses 311 with the fixing layer 40, the fixing layer 40 plays a role in bearing and protecting the micro lenses 311, and structural stability is improved.
It should be noted that the plurality of microlenses 311 are uniformly and continuously distributed on the second adhesive layer 30.
Specifically, the height of the microlenses 311 is 3 micrometers or more and 50 micrometers or less. If the height of the micro lens 311 is less than 3 micrometers, the processing difficulty of the micro lens is increased, and if the height of the micro lens 311 is greater than 50 micrometers, the assembling difficulty of the micro lens 311 and the second adhesive layer 30 is increased. Limiting the height of the micro lens 311 to be within the range of 3 micrometers and 50 micrometers can ensure the stability of the micro lens 311 on the second adhesive layer 30, reduce the processing difficulty, and further improve the performance stability of the micro lens 311.
The height of the microlens 311 refers to the farthest distance between the microlens 311 and the fixing layer 40.
Specifically, the diameter of the microlens 311 is 3 micrometers or more and 50 micrometers or less. If the diameter of the micro lens 311 is smaller than 3 micrometers, the processing difficulty of the micro lens is increased, and if the diameter of the micro lens 311 is larger than 50 micrometers, the assembling difficulty of the micro lens 311 and the second adhesive layer 30 is increased, and meanwhile, the light homogenizing effect of the light homogenizing structure 31 is poor. Limiting the diameter of the micro lens 311 to be within the range of 3 micrometers and 50 micrometers can ensure the stability of the micro lens 311 on the second adhesive layer 30, reduce the processing difficulty, and further improve the performance stability of the micro lens 311 to ensure the light homogenizing effect of the light homogenizing structure 31.
As shown in fig. 2, the integrated projection module includes the integrated optical device 50, the laser structure 70, the lens 60 and the projection structure 80, where the laser structure 70 is disposed on a side of the fixing layer 40 of the integrated optical device 50 away from the protective layer 10; the lens 60 is arranged between the integrating optic 50 and the laser structure 70, and the lens 60 at least partially coincides with the projection of the diffractive structure 21 of the integrating optic 50 onto the laser structure 70; the projection structure 80 is electrically connected with the laser structure 70, the projection structure 80 is used for emitting light from the object 90 and receiving reflected light from the object 90, the integrated projection module measures a distance L between the integrated projection module and the object 90, and feeds back the distance L to the laser structure 70, and the laser structure 70 emits laser to the dodging structure 31 or the diffraction structure 21 of the integrated optical device 50 according to the size of the distance L.
By arranging the integrated optical device 50 in the integrated projection module, the structure light projection mode and the flight time projection mode can be mutually switched, so that the integrated projection module is more convenient to use, and the miniaturization of the integrated projection module can be ensured. By arranging the lens 60 between the integrating optic 50 and the laser structure 70 with the lens 60 at least partially coinciding with the projection of the diffractive structure 21 of the integrating optic 50 onto the laser structure 70, the laser light emitted by the laser structure 70 can reach the diffractive structure 21 of the integrating optic 50 through the lens 60, whereby an image can be formed through the diffractive structure 21 to achieve a structured light projection pattern. The projection structure 80 is electrically connected with the laser structure 70, so that the projection structure 80 can emit light to the object 90 and receive reflected light of the object 90, the integrated projection module can measure the distance L according to the time difference between the light emitted by the projection structure 80 and the light received by the object 90, and the distance L is fed back to the laser structure 70, so that the laser structure 70 emits laser to the dodging structure 31 or the diffraction structure 21 of the integrated optical device 50 according to the distance L, and further the mutual switching between the structural light projection mode and the flight time projection mode is realized.
Preferably, the lens 60 is fully coincident with the projection of the diffractive structure 21 of the integrated optic 50 onto the laser structure 70. Of course, it is also possible that the lens 60 is located in the projection of the diffractive structure 21 of the integrated optics 50 into the laser structure 70.
Specifically, the laser structure 70 includes a first vcl 71 and a second vcl 72, where the first vcl 71 is at least partially coincident with the projection of the diffraction structure 21 onto the laser structure 70; the second VCSEL 72 at least partially coincides with the projection of the light homogenizing structure 31 onto the laser structure 70; wherein, when the distance L is greater than the preset distance L0, the second vcsels 72 emit laser light to the light-homogenizing structure 31, and when the distance L is less than the preset distance L0, the first vcsels 71 emit laser light to the diffraction structure 21. By providing the first vcsels 71 to at least partially coincide with the projection of the diffraction structures 21 onto the laser structures 70, the laser light emitted by the first vcsels 71 is made to impinge on the diffraction structures 21, thereby constituting the structured light projection module. By arranging the second vcsels 72 to at least partially coincide with the projection of the dodging structure 31 onto the laser structure 70, the laser light emitted by the second vcsels 72 is irradiated onto the dodging structure 31, thereby forming a time-of-flight projection module.
