[0036] To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0037] As shown in Figure 1 A fingerprint identification substrate 1 according to an embodiment of the present application comprises, in sequence along a first direction, a substrate substrate 10, a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements 20 located on the substrate substrate 10, a metal diaphragm layer 30, a collimating optical structure 40 located on an incident light side of each photoelectric conversion element 20, a microlens layer 50, and a glass cover plate.
[0038] Specifically, the photoelectric conversion element 20 is used to collect the light reflected by the fingerprint. According to the principle of total reflection of light, the light is reflected by the photoelectric conversion element 20 after being reflected by the surface of the glass cover plate pressed by the fingerprint. The amount of reflected light depends on the depth of the ridges and valleys of the fingerprint pressed on the surface of the glass cover plate, and the oil and moisture between the skin and the glass. The light that passes through the glass cover plate and reaches the valleys is totally reflected at the air interface of the light transmission layer 412, and the light is reflected to the photoelectric conversion element 20. The light that reaches the ridges is not totally reflected, but is absorbed by the contact surface of the ridges and the glass cover plate or diffusely reflected to other places, so that the image of the fingerprint is formed on the photoelectric conversion element 20.
[0039] The photoelectric conversion element 20 includes a P-type semiconductor layer, an intrinsic semiconductor layer, and an N-type semiconductor layer which are stacked.
[0040] The metal diaphragm layer 30 includes a plurality of first light transmission holes 31. The collimating optical structure 40 includes a plurality of light shielding groups which are stacked in sequence. Each light shielding group includes a light transmission layer 412 and a light shielding layer 414 which are stacked in sequence along the first direction. Each light shielding layer 414 includes a plurality of second light transmission holes 4142. The diameters of the second light transmission holes 4142 of the plurality of light shielding groups gradually increase layer by layer in a direction away from the substrate 10. The diameter of the first light transmission hole 31 is smaller than the diameter of the adjacent second light transmission hole 4142. The microlens layer 50 includes a plurality of microlens groups 51 which are projected in the plane of the substrate 10. The microlens group 51, the second light transmission hole 4142, the first light transmission hole 31, and the photoelectric conversion element 20 correspond one-to-one. The orthographic projection of the corresponding microlens group 51, the second light transmission hole 4142, and the first light transmission hole 31 at least partially overlaps, and the overlapping area at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the photoelectric conversion element 20.
[0041] In some embodiments, in order to improve the collimating effect of the collimating optical structure 40 on the light reflected by the fingerprint, the axis of the first light transmission hole 31 and the corresponding mutually overlapping second light transmission hole 4142 coincide, that is, the orthographic projection centers of the mutually overlapping second light transmission hole 4142 and the corresponding first light transmission hole 31 on the substrate 10 are the same. Of course, considering the process and other factors, the orthographic projection centers of the mutually overlapping second light transmission hole 4142 and the corresponding first light transmission hole 31 are allowed to be slightly offset in the actual product. The axis here is along the first direction.
[0042] "In the direction gradually away from the substrate 10, the diameters of the second light-transmitting holes 4142 of multiple light-shielding groups increase layer by layer". For example, the collimating optical structure 40 includes a first light-shielding group 41a, a second light-shielding group 41b, a third light-shielding group... an Nth light-shielding group stacked in sequence along the first direction. Define the diameter of the first light-transmitting hole 31 of the metal diaphragm layer 30 as W0, the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the first light-shielding group 41a as W1, the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the second light-shielding group 41b as W2, the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the third light-shielding group as W3, and the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the Nth light-shielding group as WN. W0, W1, W2, W3... WN satisfy: W0 < W1 < W2 < W3 <... < WN.
[0043] The diameters of the second light-transmitting holes 4142 in the same layer are the same. For example, the diameters of multiple second light-transmitting holes 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the first light-shielding group 41a are equal, and the diameters of multiple second light-transmitting holes 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the second light-shielding group 41b are equal.
[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, the collimating optical structure 40 includes a first light-shielding group 41a and a second light-shielding group 41b. The first light-shielding group 41a is adjacent to the metal diaphragm layer 30, and the second light-shielding group 41b is located on the side of the first light-shielding group 41a away from the metal diaphragm layer 30. Define the diameter of the first light-transmitting hole 31 of the metal diaphragm layer 30 as W0, the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the first light-shielding group 41a as W1, and the diameter of the second light-transmitting hole 4142 on the light-shielding layer 414 of the second light-shielding group 41b as W2. W0, W1, W2 satisfy: W0 < W1 < W2. 2 < W0 < 4μm, 10 < W1 < 12μm, 20 < W2 < 22μm. The thickness H of the microlens is 8 - 10μm. In this way, while ensuring the ability of the fingerprint recognition substrate 1 to prevent optical crosstalk, it can prevent the fingerprint recognition substrate 1 from being too thick, making the overall fingerprint recognition substrate 1 thin and light. Among them, W0 can be 2.5μm, 3μm, 3.5μm, etc., W1 can be 10.5μm, 11μm, 11.5μm, etc., W2 can be 20.5μm, 21μm, 21.5μm, etc., and H can be 8μm, 8.5μm, 9μm, 9.5μm, 10μm.
[0045] For the fingerprint recognition substrate 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the microlens group 51 includes an even number of microlenses 512. Preferably, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the microlens group 51 includes four microlenses 512, and the four microlenses 512 correspond to one photoelectric conversion element 20. AsFigure 2 As shown, the bottom wall of the microlens 512 is parallel to the substrate 10, and the angle between the side wall and the bottom wall of the microlens 512 is a, which satisfies: 90° < a < 170°. Wherein, a can be 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160° and 170°.
[0046] In some embodiments, the projection in the plane where the substrate 10 is located is as shown in FIG. 6A, and the projection in the plane where the substrate 10 is located is as shown in FIG. 6B. Figure 3 As shown, the orthographic projection shape of the microlens 512 is a circle; or as shown in FIG. 6C, the orthographic projection shape of the microlens 512 is a square, and the four corners of the microlens 512 are smoothly transitioned. Figure 4 As shown, the orthographic projection shape of the microlens 512 is a circle; or as shown in FIG. 6C, the orthographic projection shape of the microlens 512 is a square, and the four corners of the microlens 512 are smoothly transitioned.
[0047] According to the fingerprint identification substrate 1 of the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the metal diaphragm layer 30, due to the metal material, the diameter of the hole can be smaller, the diameter of the first light transmission hole 31 on the metal diaphragm layer 30 is smaller than the diameter of the second light transmission hole 4142, which can better converge the light and prevent light crosstalk, and improve the clarity of the fingerprint image of the thin finger obtained under strong light.
[0048] Table 1 is the ability difference data of preventing light crosstalk of the technical scheme of the present application and the existing technical scheme, wherein FWHM is the full name of Full Width at Half Maxima, and the Chinese name is half peak full width. As can be seen from Table 1, when the angle between the light beam and the substrate 10 is 45°, the crosstalk rate of the existing technical scheme is 4%, and the crosstalk rate of the present application is 0%. It can be seen that the anti-crosstalk effect of the present application is better, the integral area of the existing technology for preventing light beam crosstalk is 3.61, and the integral area of the present application for preventing light beam crosstalk reaches 5.42, which is 50% higher than the microlens next to the comparative example. It can be seen that the integral area of the present application for preventing light beam crosstalk is larger, and the effect of preventing crosstalk is better.

[0050]
[0051] As shown in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B, Figure 5 Figure 7 , and Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B,
[0052] Example 1:
[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, when projected onto the plane of the substrate 10, the orthographic projection of functional region A covers the orthographic projection of the corresponding microlens group 51 and the orthographic projection of the corresponding photoelectric conversion element 20. The cross-section of each light-shielding group in transition region B is a right-angled trapezoidal structure. Each layer of transition region B includes right-angled ends and non-right-angled ends located at both ends along the length direction. The right-angled ends of each layer of transition region B are adjacent to and flush with each corresponding layer of functional region A. That is to say, each layer in functional region A and transition region B of collimating optical structure 40 shares the same layer. In the molding process, each corresponding layer of functional region A and transition region B is integrally molded. The reason for distinguishing between transition region B and functional region A is to ensure that the film thickness of each layer of functional region A, which is directly opposite to photoelectric conversion element 20, is stable.
[0054] In some embodiments, the light-shielding layer 414 comprises BM (Black Matrix) resin, and the light-transmitting layer 412 comprises OC (Overcoat). The reason for setting the transition zone B is that the light-shielding layer 414 and the light-transmitting layer 412 in the collimating optical structure 40 are prepared layer by layer. Since the thickness of the light-transmitting layer 412 is relatively thick, under the influence of large step differences, the thickness of each layer in the collimating optical structure 40 has a "climbing" process from the edge to the direction close to the functional area A. After a certain distance, the thickness of each layer can reach stability. This is a problem that will exist in the actual production process. Since the degree of optical path crosstalk and imaging effect are very sensitive to the thickness of the light-shielding layer 414 and the thickness of the light-transmitting layer 412, it is necessary to set the transition zone B to ensure that the thickness of each layer in the functional area A is stable and controllable.
[0055] Wherein, "cross section" refers to the cross section passing through the central axis of the microlens 512 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, and "length direction" refers to the direction perpendicular to the first direction in the cross section.
[0056] In other words, the stacked structure of the fingerprint recognition substrate 1 in the transition region B of the collimating optical structure 40 is a substrate 10, a photoelectric conversion element 20, a metal aperture layer 30, the transition region B, a filling layer and a glass cover plate stacked sequentially along the first direction.
[0057] Example 2:
[0058] Projecting onto the plane where the substrate 10 is located, the orthographic projection of functional area A covers the orthographic projection of the corresponding microlens group 51 and the orthographic projection of the corresponding photoelectric conversion element 20, and the non-right-angle ends of the cross-section of each light-shielding group in transition area B are flush.
[0059] Example 3:
[0060] In the plane in which the substrate 10 lies, the orthographic projection of the functional area A covers the orthographic projection of the corresponding microlens group 51 and the orthographic projection of the corresponding photoelectric conversion element 20, and the wrapping of the light-blocking group in the transition area B away from the photoelectric conversion element 20 is close to the light-blocking group of the photoelectric conversion element 20.
[0061] Since the film thickness of the light-transmitting layer 412 is large, when the light-blocking layer 414 is prepared, it is easy to leave some raw material for preparing the light-blocking layer 414 on the edge of the light-transmitting layer 412, which will affect the light-transmitting property of the light-transmitting layer 412. Therefore, along the first direction, the non-right-angle ends of the multiple light-blocking groups in the transition area B are arranged in a positive step-by-step manner. In this way, the possibility of leaving the raw material of the light-blocking layer 414 on the light-transmitting layer 412 can be greatly reduced. As shown in Figure 8 In the structure shown in Example 2, the length of the light-blocking layer raw material left on the light-transmitting layer 412 reaches 9.8 μm, Figure 9 In the structure shown in Example 3, the length of the light-blocking layer raw material left on the light-transmitting layer 412 reaches 23 μm, as shown in Figure 6 In the structure shown in Example 1, the length of the light-blocking layer raw material left on the light-transmitting layer 412 can be reduced to 6.2 μm. Therefore, the structure of Example 1 is preferred.
[0062] In some embodiments, the collimating optical structure 40 includes a first light-blocking group 41a and a second light-blocking group 41b, and the collimating optical structure 40 further includes a light-transmitting layer 412 arranged between the second light-blocking group 41b and the microlens layer 50, so as to separate the light-blocking layer 414 of the second light-blocking group 41b from the microlens layer 50, the first light-blocking group 41a is adjacent to the metal diaphragm layer 30, and the length L of the transition area B is greater than or equal to 1700 μm.
[0063] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 the length of the light-transmitting layer 412 of the first light-blocking group 41a gradually stabilizes from the edge to the functional area A is at least 20 μm; as shown in Figure 12 the length of the light-blocking layer 414 of the first light-blocking group 41a gradually increases from the edge to a stable length is at least 800 μm; as shown in Figure 13 the length of the light-transmitting layer 412 of the second light-blocking group 41b gradually increases from the edge to a stable length is at least 1200 μm; as shown in Figure 14 the length of the light-blocking layer 414 of the second light-blocking group 41b gradually increases from the edge to a stable length is at least 1400 μm, as shown in Figure 15As shown, the film thickness of the light-transmitting layer 412 between the second light-shielding group 41b and the microlens layer 50 gradually increases from the edge to a stable length of at least 1700 μm, so the length of the transition zone B is greater than or equal to 1700 μm, which can ensure that the film thickness of the light-transmitting layer 412 and the light-shielding layer 414 of the first light-shielding group 41a and the light-transmitting layer 412 and the light-shielding layer 414 of the second light-shielding group 41b are stable and reliable.
[0064] In some embodiments, the length difference M between the first light-shielding group 41a and the second light-shielding group 41b ranges from 1.5 μm to 5 μm. M can be 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm, etc.
[0065] In some embodiments, the two ends of the light-shielding layer 414 and the light-transmitting layer 412 of the first light-shielding group 41a in the length direction are flush, and the two ends of the light-shielding layer 414 and the light-transmitting layer 412 of the second light-shielding group 41b in the length direction are flush.
[0066] In some embodiments, the length difference M1 between the light-transmitting layer 412 and the light-shielding layer 414 of the first light-shielding group 41a ranges from 1.5 μm to 5 μm, where M1 can be 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm, etc.
[0067] The length difference M2 between the light-transmitting layer 412 and the light-shielding layer 414 of the second light-shielding group 41b ranges from 1.5 μm to 5 μm. M2 can be 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm, etc.
[0068] According to the fingerprint identification substrate 1 of the embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 As shown, the infrared filter layer 60 is arranged between the metal diaphragm layer 30 and the collimating optical structure 40, so that the ambient light above 600 nm can be filtered through the infrared filter layer 60, preventing the ambient light from entering the photoelectric conversion element 20 through the relatively thin fingers of women or children, etc., to generate identification interference, and improving the clarity of the fingerprint signal.
[0069] As shown in Figure 16As shown, the thickness of the infrared filter layer 60 ranges from 2.4 to 3 μm. The thicker the thickness of the infrared filter layer 60, the better the filtering effect on the ambient light, but the thickness of the fingerprint identification substrate 1 will also increase with the increase of the thickness of the infrared filter layer 60, therefore, the thickness of the infrared filter layer 60 should be selected appropriately. In some embodiments, preferably, the thickness of the infrared filter layer 60 is 2.71 μm, and it has been verified through experiments that the error rate of the infrared filter layer 60 with a thickness of 2.71 μm remains within 3% under strong light conditions, the cutoff rate of the light beam of 600 nm reaches more than 88%, and the cutoff rate of the light beam of 620 nm reaches more than 1%.
[0070] The display device according to the embodiments of the present application comprises the fingerprint identification substrate 1 described above.
[0071] The display device according to the embodiments of the present application, by arranging the metal diaphragm layer 30, due to the metal material, the diameter of the opening can be smaller, the diameter of the first light transmission hole 31 on the metal diaphragm layer 30 is smaller than that of the second light transmission hole 4142, which can better converge the light and prevent light crosstalk, and improve the clarity of the fingerprint image of the thin finger obtained by the display device under strong light.
