When a user uses a display device such as a mobile phone or a tablet, the display content of the display device is prevented from being seen by a person other than the user. The peep-proof module 12 may be disposed in the display panel 10, so that the display device can emit interference light to affect the sight of the peep-proof object, so that the peep-proof object cannot see the normally displayed image.
In order to realize multi-directional peep prevention of a display device, a display panel 10 is provided in an embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the display panel 10 has a light emitting area and a peep preventing area in a display area, and the display panel 10 includes a display unit 11 and a peep preventing module 12. The display unit 11 is located in the light emitting area, and the peep preventing module 12 is located in the peep preventing area. The peep-proof module 12 includes a first light shielding layer 121 and a second light shielding layer 122 arranged at intervals along a plane perpendicular to the display panel 10.
The first light shielding layer 121 includes a first light shielding portion 1211, a first light leakage channel 1212 extending in a first direction, and a second light leakage channel 1213 extending in a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction intersect.
The second light shielding layer 122 includes a second light shielding portion 1221 and a third light leakage path 1223 extending in the first direction, and a third light shielding portion 1222 and a fourth light leakage path 1224 extending in the second direction. The front projection of the first light leakage channel 1212 on the plane of the display unit 11 is located in the front projection of the second light shielding portion 1221 on the plane of the display panel 10, the front projection of the second light leakage channel 1213 on the plane of the display panel 10 is located in the front projection of the third light shielding portion 1222 on the plane of the display panel 10, and the front projections of the third light leakage channel 1223 and the fourth light leakage channel 1224 on the plane of the display panel 10 are both located in the front projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the plane of the display panel 10.
For convenience of explanation, the first light shielding layer 121 is located at a side away from the light emitting surface of the display panel 10, and the second light shielding layer 122 is located at a side close to the light emitting surface of the display panel 10.
When the display panel 10 emits light, a part of the light enters the display unit 11, so that the display unit 11 emits light to finally enable the display panel 10 to display content. When the light reaches the first light shielding layer 121, part of the light enters the peep-proof module 12 and can pass through the first light shielding layer 121 through the first light leakage channel 1212 and the second light leakage channel 1213 of the first light shielding layer 121. After the light passes through the first light shielding layer 121, the light can enter the second light shielding layer 122, and be emitted from the peep-proof module 12 through the second light shielding layer 122. Since the second light shielding portion 1221 of the second light shielding layer 122 is located at a side close to the light emitting surface of the display panel 10 in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the display panel 10, a portion of the light entering from the first light leakage path 1212 is blocked by the second light shielding portion 1221, and an unblocked portion is emitted from the third light leakage path 1223 located beside the second light shielding portion 1221 at the emission angle α. At this time, the angle between the outgoing light and the plane of the display panel 10 is β, α+β=90°. It can be seen that, when the peep-preventer is within the angle range of the angle β, the light emitted from the peep-preventer 12 is perceived, and the light affects the sight of the peep-preventer, so that the peep-preventer cannot see the display content of the display panel 10 clearly.
Similarly, since the third light shielding portion 1222 of the second light shielding layer 122 is also located at a side close to the light emitting surface of the display panel 10, a part of the light entering from the second light leakage channel 1213 is also blocked by the third light shielding portion 1222, and another part of the light exits from the fourth light leakage channel 1224 located beside the third light shielding portion 1222 at a certain angle, so that the sight line of the peep-person can be affected.
In addition, the first light leakage channel 1212 and the third light leakage channel 1223 are disposed along the first direction, and the light emitted from the third light leakage channel 1223 actually exits in a direction forming an angle with the plane of the display panel 10, i.e. exits in the third direction, so that the light exiting from the third light leakage channel 1223 mainly exits in the third direction. The fourth light leakage channel 1224 and the second light leakage channel 1213 extend along the second direction, so that the light emitted from the fourth light leakage channel 1224 also exits along a direction forming a certain included angle with the plane of the display panel 10, i.e. exits along the fourth direction.
Since the projection of the third direction on the plane of the display panel 10 is the second direction and the projection of the fourth direction on the plane of the display panel 10 is the first direction, the first direction and the second direction intersect, so the third direction also intersects the fourth direction. Accordingly, the light exiting direction from the third light leakage path 1223 is different from the light exiting direction from the fourth light leakage path 1224. The light exiting from the third light leakage channel 1223 may realize peep prevention in the third direction, and the light exiting from the fourth light leakage channel 1224 may realize peep prevention in the fourth direction.
Therefore, when the display panel 10 emits light, the light emitted from the peep-proof module 12 can be emitted in the third direction and the fourth direction. Since the projection of the third direction on the plane of the display panel 10 is the second direction, and the projection of the fourth direction on the plane of the display panel 10 is the first direction, when the peep-proof person is located in the first direction or the second direction of the display panel 10 and is in the peep-proof angle, the light emitted from the peep-proof module 12 can be sensed, so as to realize multi-directional peep-proof and improve the peep-proof effect of the whole display panel 10.
In the above embodiments, the second light shielding layer 122 is located near the light emitting surface of the display panel 10, and in some embodiments, the first light shielding layer 121 may be disposed near the light emitting surface of the display panel 10, which is not limited herein.
The display panel 10 is described below in connection with a specific embodiment.
Illustratively, when the display panel 10 described above is a liquid crystal display panel. Referring to the embodiment shown in fig. 7 and 8, along the direction perpendicular to the light emitting surface of the display panel 10, the display panel 10 includes an array substrate, a liquid crystal layer 14, and a color film substrate, the array substrate includes a first substrate 13, the color film substrate includes a second substrate 15, and the first substrate 13 and the second substrate 15 are substrate substrates of the array substrate and the color film substrate, respectively, and may be glass substrates or flexible substrates. Wherein, the first substrate 13 is away from the second substrate 15 and is provided with a backlight module 16. The number of the display units 11 may be plural, and the plural display units 11 may be distributed in an array arrangement on a plane thereof. Each display unit 11 is a single pixel unit, and each pixel unit may include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel. Each pixel unit is located in the light emitting area, and the peep-proof module 12 is located in the peep-proof area. The peep-proof module 12 includes a first light shielding layer 121 and a second light shielding layer 122 disposed at intervals along a direction perpendicular to a plane of the display panel 10.
In this embodiment, the first substrate 13 is a substrate of an array substrate, and the second substrate 15 is a substrate of a color film substrate, which is described as an example, it is to be understood that in other embodiments, the first substrate 13 may be a substrate of a color film substrate, and the second substrate 15 may be a substrate of an array substrate, which is not particularly limited in this disclosure. It can be understood that the array substrate and the color film substrate further comprise other film structures, which are not shown in the figure.
The first light shielding layer 121 includes a first light shielding portion 1211, a first light leakage path 1212 extending in a first direction, and a second light leakage path 1213 extending in a second direction. The second light shielding layer 122 includes a second light shielding portion 1221 and a third light leakage channel 1223 extending along the first direction, and a third light shielding portion 1222 and a fourth light leakage channel 1224 extending along the second direction.
Wherein, the orthographic projection of the first light leakage channel 1212 on the first substrate 13 is located within the orthographic projection of the second light shielding portion 1221 on the first substrate 13, and the orthographic projection of the second light leakage channel 1213 on the first substrate 13 is located within the orthographic projection of the third light shielding portion 1222 on the first substrate 13. The orthographic projections of the third light leakage channel 1223 and the fourth light leakage channel 1224 on the first substrate 13 are located within the orthographic projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the first substrate 13. That is, the light leakage channels of the first light shielding layer 121 and the light leakage channels of the second light shielding layer 122 are projected on the first substrate 13 in a crossed arrangement.
When the display panel 10 emits light, the light emitted by the backlight module 16 can pass through the peep-proof module 12 and be emitted from the second substrate 15.
When the light reaches the first light shielding layer 121 of the peep-proof module 12, a part of the light can pass through the first light shielding layer 121 from the first light leakage channel 1212 and the second light leakage channel 1213, and then enter the second light shielding layer 122. In the direction perpendicular to the plane of the first substrate 13, since the second light shielding portion 1221 of the second light shielding layer 122 is located at a side away from the first substrate 13 and the first light leakage path 1212 is located at a side close to the first substrate 13, the second light shielding portion 1221 can block the light emitted from the first light leakage path 1212, and the portion of the light that is not blocked can only be emitted from the third light leakage path 1223 located at a side of the second light shielding portion 1221.
Also, the light passing through the second light leakage path 1213 is blocked by the third light shielding portion 1222 provided away from the first substrate 13, and a portion of the light that is not blocked can be emitted only from the fourth light leakage path 1224 located at the side of the third light shielding portion 1222.
The fourth light leakage channel 1224 and the second light leakage channel 1213 are extended along the second direction, which intersects the first direction, based on the extended arrangement of the first light leakage channel 1212 and the third light leakage channel 1223 along the first direction. The light emitted from the third light leakage path 1223 is mainly emitted in the third direction. The light emitted from the fourth light leakage channel 1224 exits mainly along the fourth direction.
When the display panel 10 displays a picture, the light emitted from the peep-proof module 12 can exit along the first direction and the second direction. The first direction and the second direction in the embodiment are referred to, that is, the first direction is the up-down direction, and the second direction is the left-right direction, so that the light emitted by the peep-proof module 12 can affect the sight of the peep-proof person positioned at the up-down, left-right directions of the display panel 10, so that the peep-proof person cannot see the display content of the display panel 10 clearly, thereby realizing peep-proof at a plurality of directions and improving the peep-proof effect of the whole display panel 10.
It should be noted that the display panel 10 can be applied to an LCD, an OLED, and a Micro LED. In the OLED and Micro LED, a light emitting element needs to be disposed at a position corresponding to the light shielding layer to ensure that light passes through the peep-proof area, and the working principle based on the peep-proof module is similar to that of the peep-proof module on the liquid crystal display panel, and will not be described in detail here.
In order to ensure the angle of light emitted from the peep-proof module 12, the relationship between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 of the peep-proof module 12 may be adjusted.
With continued reference to fig. 5 to 8, in this embodiment, the distance between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 is H in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the display panel 10. The front projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the plane of the display panel 10 and the front projection of the second light shielding portion 1221 on the plane of the display panel 10 have overlapping regions, and the length of the overlapping regions along the first direction and/or the second direction is L1,0< L1<0.577×h.
And/or, the front projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the plane of the display panel 10 and the front projection of the third light shielding portion 1222 on the plane of the display panel 10 have overlapping areas, and the length of the overlapping areas along the first direction and/or the second direction is L2,0< L2<0.577×h.
It should be noted that, the light emitted from the backlight module 16 has an exit angle a, and the range of the exit angle a is equal to or less than ±90°. Because the light passes through the layers of the multi-layer film before reaching the privacy module 12, the angle of the light is converged to angle B after the light passes through the layers of the multi-layer film and the air refracts. The range of the angle B is less than or equal to +/-41.8 degrees. Thus, the light ultimately enters the privacy module 12 at an incident angle B. After the light enters the peep-proof module 12, part of the light is blocked by the second light shielding portion 1221 and the third light shielding portion 1222 of the second light shielding layer 122. Taking the second light shielding portion 1221 as an example, the orthographic projection of the second light shielding portion 1221 on the plane on which the display panel 10 is located and the orthographic projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the plane on which the display unit 11 is located have an overlapping region whose length in the first direction is L1. The size of L1 affects the degree of blocking of light by the second light shielding portion 1221. When L1 is larger, the light emitted from the first light leakage channel 1212 can be totally blocked by the second light shielding portion 1221, that is, the light cannot pass through the peep preventing module 12. The value of the overlap area L1 is set according to the incident angle of the light into the privacy module 12, that is, the relationship between the angle B and the interval H between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122. The relationship between the three is l1=h=tan 41.8°, i.e., l1=0.577×h. In order to enable light to be emitted from the peep-proof module 12, 0< l1<0.577×h may be made so as to make full use of light emitted from the light leakage channel, thereby realizing the peep-proof function.
It can be understood that the lengths of the overlapping regions along the second direction are the same as L2, L2 and L1, and may also be obtained according to the incident angle of the light entering the peep-proof module 12 and the distance between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122, that is, 0< L2<0.577×h. Similarly, the front projection of the third light shielding portion 1222 on the plane of the display panel 10 and the front projection of the first light shielding portion 1211 on the plane of the display panel 10 also have overlapping regions, and the length of the overlapping regions along the first direction and/or the second direction is L2,0< L2<0.577×h. This arrangement is to fully utilize the light, and ensure that the light can be emitted from the peep-proof module 12, so as to realize the peep-proof function.
Second, when the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 are both disposed on one side of the substrate, the space between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 is not preferably excessively large. In some embodiments, the spacing H between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 ranges between 1 μm and 20 μm. If the distance between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122 is enlarged, the thickness of the film layer where the peep preventing unit is located must be increased. The thick film layer is easy to cause the glass substrate covered on the surface of the film layer to warp, and the film is difficult to flow, and the film breaking phenomenon is easy to occur in the manufacturing process, so that the production efficiency of the whole panel is affected, and the yield is reduced. In addition, the thick film layer is also prone to cause image sticking.
When the first light-shielding layer 121 and the second light-shielding layer 122 are not provided on the same side, that is, when a plurality of film layers are provided between the first light-shielding layer 121 and the second light-shielding layer 122, the interval between the first light-shielding layer 121 and the second light-shielding layer 122 may be 3 μm to 20 μm.
In order to further enhance the peep-proof function, the size of the light leakage channel can be improved by using the light emitted from the peep-proof module 12 to ensure the emergent amount of the light.
Based on the similarity in structure between the first light shielding layer 121 and the second light shielding layer 122, the first light shielding layer 121 will be described as an example.
With continued reference to fig. 5 to 8, in this embodiment, the length of the first light leakage channel 1212 along the first direction is a, and the length of the first light leakage channel 1212 along the second direction is b. Since the third direction peep prevention is mainly achieved by using the first light leakage channel 1212, the first light leakage channel 1212 is extended along the first direction. It can be seen that the length a of the first light leakage channel 1212 along the first direction is longer than the length b of the first light leakage channel 1212 along the second direction.
In order to ensure that enough light can be emitted from the first light leakage channel 1212 while reasonably utilizing the space of the peep-proof module 12, the length a of the first light leakage channel 1212 along the first direction and the length b along the second direction can be set so as to enable 1 μm < b <100 μm and enable 1.ltoreq.a/b.ltoreq.100. Thereby further expanding the opening area of the first light leakage channel 1212 and improving the space utilization rate of the light shielding layer.
As for the second light leakage channel 1213, it may extend from one edge of the first light shielding layer 121 to the other edge. That is, a long hole extending along the second direction is formed in the first light shielding layer 121, and the width of the long hole along the first direction is greater than or equal to 1 micrometer, so as to ensure that enough light can be emitted from the long hole.
Fig. 9 shows a top view of a first light shielding layer 121 according to another embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the area of the second light shielding layer 122 may be larger than that of the first light shielding layer 121, so that the boundary of the first light shielding layer 121 missing with respect to the second light shielding layer 122, that is, the boundary of the first light shielding layer 121 near the display unit 11 and the boundary of the display unit 11 form the second light leakage channel 1213. The channel may extend in a second direction. Thus, the second light leakage channel 1213 does not need to be additionally formed on the first light shielding layer 121.
As shown in fig. 10, in some embodiments, at least two first light leakage channels 1212 are provided, and a plurality of first light leakage channels 1212 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the second direction. At least two second light shielding portions 1221 are provided, and the orthographic projection of each first light leakage channel 1212 on the plane of the display panel 10 is located within the orthographic projection of each second light shielding portion 1221 on the plane of the display panel 10.
In this embodiment, the first light leakage channels 1212 are disposed to extend along the first direction, and the plurality of first light leakage channels 1212 are arranged at intervals along the second direction.
