Definitions
- the present invention relates to an augmented reality device, and more particularly, to an augmented reality device employing a quantum dot device to reduce the size and weight of an optical system and to make images more vivid.
- Augmented Reality is a field of virtual reality (VR), which is a computer graphics technique that synthesizes virtual objects or information in an actual environment to make them look like objects existing in the original environment.
- VR virtual reality
- the wearer of the augmented reality device can reach a degree where it is difficult to distinguish between an image in the real world and a virtually implemented image. It is also called Mixed Reality (MR).
- Augmented reality technology is a hybrid VR system that fuses a real environment and a virtual environment, and research and development are currently being actively conducted in many countries.
- Augmented reality technology a concept that supplements the real world with the virtual world, is implemented by overlapping virtual image information made with computer graphics and projecting it onto the real environment.
- the virtual image serves to enhance the visual effect of a specific element in the real environment or to display information related to the real world.
- Such augmented reality technology is applied to displays mounted on wearable devices such as glasses or helmets.
- Devices such as augmented reality glasses not only include all the functions of current smartphones, but also have a function that maximizes the wearer's ability to recognize visual information.
- major global companies such as Apple, Google, and Facebook are making huge investments and developing them.
- Augmented reality devices can perform their functions most effectively when worn, and it is urgently needed in the industry to develop an optical system that provides visually large and clear augmented reality images while miniaturizing augmented reality devices.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically showing an example of an optical system of a conventional augmented reality device.
- the optical system of the augmented reality device includes a micro display 1 as an image source, and a transmission optical system 2 composed of one or more lenses, receiving image light, reflecting it from the inside, and passing it to the eye. It is composed by
- the micro display 1 used as the image source may be a liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) display, organic light emitting diode (OLED), or the like.
- LCOS liquid crystal on silicon
- OLED organic light emitting diode
- FIG. 1 an example in which the LCOS is used as a micro display is described.
- a waveguide method In the transfer optical system, a waveguide method, a direct projection method employing a projection method, a prism method, or the like may be used, but an example using a prism method will be described in FIG. 1 .
- At least one surface of the prism constituting the optical system is specially designed and processed into a spherical surface, an aspherical surface, or a free curved surface.
- Aberrations generated during image formation in the optical system cause a decrease in sharpness.
- the higher the sharpness in the optical design the higher the distortion of the image, and when the distortion is improved, the sharpness of the image is lowered.
- a diffractive optical element (DOE) is used or a holographic optical element (HOE ) is used as a reflection method or a transmission method in a part of the optical path of the optical system.
- DOE diffractive optical element
- HOE holographic optical element
- Diffractive optical elements or holographic optical elements are in the form of very thin films or structures, enabling image formation without aberrations and further improving aberrations that cannot be controlled by special optical surfaces such as aspheric and free curved surfaces. It has advantages.
- a diffractive optical element or a holographic optical element serves to improve the resolution of an image in an augmented reality optical system to make the sharpness clear.
- a diffractive optical element or a holographic optical element is an element that uses a diffraction phenomenon by forming periodic structures in the thickness or refractive index of an optical medium to control light in an optical system.
- a diffractive optical element has a rectangular or wedge-shaped periodic cross-section through mechanical processing to form periodic structures having a period of several nm to hundreds of nm in the thickness of an optical medium in order to control light in an optical system. It is a device manufactured to have a lattice structure like a grating with
- a holographic optical element utilizes optical interferometry using one or more lasers for a photoreactive optical medium to form periodic structures in the refractive index of an optical medium to control light in an optical system, thereby reducing the periodicity of the refractive index. It is a device manufactured by processing to have the shape of a film having an arrangement.
- diffraction efficiency is required to be high, for example, 60% or more. Diffraction efficiency is calculated by measuring the intensity of diffracted light compared to the total intensity of incident light. For example, when reproducing a hologram, the diffraction efficiency refers to the ratio of the intensity I1 of the 1st order diffraction wave of the hologram to the intensity I0 of the illumination wave. When this diffraction efficiency is low, for example, 60 percent or less, the loss of light is severe and the brightness of the AR image is severely lowered, so that image visibility and power efficiency of the augmented reality device are greatly reduced, so that it is meaningless to apply it.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a diffraction efficiency calculation model in a diffractive optical element (DOE) or a holographic optical element (HOE), and FIG. It is an illustrated drawing.
- DOE diffractive optical element
- HOE holographic optical element
- Equation 1 the diffraction efficiency calculation formula for the transmissive diffraction element is as shown in Equation 1 below, and the diffraction efficiency formula for the reflection type diffraction element is as shown in Equation 2 below.
- ⁇ Diffraction Efficiency
- f 1 / ⁇
- spatial frequency of grating (DOE) ⁇ : period of the grating
- ⁇ wavelength
- ⁇ wavelength deviation
- d thickness
- n refractive index
- the diffraction efficiency of the DOE or HOE applied to the augmented reality optical system is highly dependent on the variation of the wavelength of light incident on the device, that is, the line width ⁇ , and the smaller the line width of the wavelength of the incident light, the higher the diffraction efficiency.
- micro displays used in augmented reality optical devices there are LCOS, micro OLED, inorganic LED, DMD, and the like.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the wavelength spectrum of image light emitted from the LCOS micro-display
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the wavelength spectrum of image light emitted from the OLED micro-display.
- the LCOS microdisplay uses an LED as a backlight, and it can be seen that the wavelength spectrum of the LED light is relatively widely distributed from the central wavelength for each color of R, G, and B.
- the wavelength spectrum of the OLED microdisplay also has a very wide bandwidth for each center wavelength of R, G, and B.
- LCOS displays are composed of components such as LED backlight, polarizing film, compensation film, and color filter, and the wavelength line width of the emission spectrum is somewhat narrower compared to that of the OLED display's emission spectrum. Therefore, when LCOS image light is incident on DOE or HOE in AR glass, relatively high diffraction efficiency can be obtained compared to when OLED image light is incident on DOE or HOE. Since the image light of the OLED display has a relatively wide line width, the diffraction efficiency is significantly lowered when it is incident on the DOE or HOE.
- an LCOS display when used in an augmented reality device, it is possible to obtain an effect of reducing optical aberration by using DOE or HOE without significantly impairing light efficiency of the entire device.
- the LCOS display requires the application of complex parts such as an LCD panel, an LED light emitting unit, a polarizing film, a compensation film, and a recycling film, the overall volume becomes large. Due to this, it is very unfavorable to apply it to a wearable augmented reality device that seeks light weight and miniaturization.
- a wearable augmented reality device In a wearable augmented reality device, it is absolutely necessary to reduce the volume and weight of the device, and as a micro display element applied to the wearable augmented reality device, it replaces the bulky LCOS and is 1/4 smaller in volume than the LCOS. It is very advantageous to apply the display.
- image light having a relatively wide bandwidth emitted from the micro OLED is incident to the DOE or HOE element, resulting in a rapid decrease in diffraction efficiency. Therefore, the optical efficiency of the overall device is lowered, and it is impossible to obtain an effect of reducing optical aberrations using DOE or HOE.
- a means for narrowing the line width of the wavelength of the micro OLED is required to increase the diffraction efficiency of DOE or HOE devices that reduce aberrations and implement high-definition images while using micro OLED for miniaturization of augmented reality devices.
- the emission spectrum of the display is increased to increase the diffraction effect of DOE and HOE devices that reduce aberrations and provide high-definition images.
- a means to reduce the line width is needed. As described above, even when an LCOS display with a relatively narrow emission spectrum is applied in an augmented reality device, the line width of the emission spectrum of the display is further reduced to enhance the diffraction effect of DOE and HOE elements that reduce aberrations and provide high-definition images. You need a means of giving.
