采用反射式液晶显示器和有机电致发光器件前后双置组合而成的高环境对比度显示器

一种高环境对比度(A-CR)和大开口率的显示器已经从理论上证明,并通过把一个正常显黑反射型显示器(NB-RLCD)和一个有机电致发光器件(OLED)堆垛的实验加以证明。这种前后双置(以下称为tandem型)的器件组合可以分别在明亮或昏暗的环境下切换NB-RLCD模式或OLED模式。RLCD的正常显黑特性也可以提升OLED模式工作时的A-CR性能。为了在RLCD模式下获得更好的图像品质,一个复杂并且具有传输功能的结构被用于消除镜面反射和提高可视角至CR﹥2:1超过55°的锥面可视角度。另外,这样的结构也可以提高OLED49.4%的表面量子效率。在我们的实验里,忽略环境亮度因素并使A-CR保持在100:1以上。

High Ambient-Contrast-Ratio Display Using Tandem Reflective Liquid Crystal Display and Organic Light-Emitting Device

A high ambient-contrast-ratio (A-CR) and large aperture-ratio display is conceptually demonstrated and experimentally validated by stacking a normally black reflective liquid crystal display (NB-RLCD) and an organic light-emitting device (OLED). Such a tandem device can be switched between the NB-RLCD mode and the OLED mode under bright and dark ambient light, respectively. The normally black characteristic of the RLCD also helps to boost the A-CR under OLED-mode operation. To obtain a better image quality in the RLCD mode, a bumpy and transmissive structure is used to eliminate the specular reflection and to increase the viewing angle performance that results in CR>2:1 over 55o viewing cone. Besides, such a structure can also increase the external quantum efficiency of the OLED by 49.4%. In our experiments, regardless of the ambient intensity the A-CR is kept higher than 100:1.
