[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a viewing angle expansion film and a preparation method thereof, and a display device. Background Art
[0002] Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) uses liquid crystal material as its basic component. Liquid crystal material is filled between two parallel plates. Voltage is used to change the arrangement of molecules inside the liquid crystal material to achieve the purpose of shading and transmitting light to display images of varying depths and staggered arrangements. Moreover, as long as a filter layer of three primary colors is added between the two flat plates, color images can be displayed.
[0003] At present, vertical alignment (VA) liquid crystal displays have the advantages of high contrast, bright colors and fast response time, and are widely used in consumer electronic products such as televisions. However, the viewing angle (viewing angle) of VA liquid crystal displays is not as good as that of In-Plane Switching (IPS) liquid crystal displays.

[0013] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also provides a method for preparing a viewing angle expansion film, which includes the following steps: providing a substrate; arranging a first film layer on the substrate; the first film layer includes a flat layer and a plurality of first protrusions and a plurality of second protrusions arranged on the flat layer, the plurality of first protrusions are spaced apart from each other along a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and are arranged in an array on the flat layer, and the extension directions of the first protrusions are all parallel to the first direction; the plurality of second protrusions are spaced apart from each other along the first direction and the second direction and are arranged in an array on the flat layer, and are spaced apart from the first protrusions, and the extension directions of the second protrusions are all parallel to the second direction; a second film layer is arranged on the first film layer, the second film layer fills the gap between adjacent first protrusions and the second protrusions, the gap between two adjacent first protrusions, and the gap between two adjacent second protrusions, and the refractive index of the second film layer is greater than the refractive index of the first film layer.

The material of the second film layer 72 is a second resin. In this embodiment, the material of the second film layer 72 is a second light-transmitting resin. The refractive index of the second film layer 72 is greater than the refractive index of the first film layer 71. The refractive index of the second film layer 72 ranges from 1.5 to 1.9.
