Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an optical film, and more particularly to a quantum dot composite film. Background Technology

[0002] Quantum dots are tiny spherical semiconductor particles, each nanometer in size. A key characteristic of quantum dots is that they emit colored spectra when excited by light or electricity. The color of these spectra is determined by the material composition and size of the quantum dots themselves. This property allows quantum dots to alter the color of light emitted by a light source, making them widely applicable in displays. This enhances the color gamut of the display, improves the color and brightness of LCDs, and enables LCD displays to achieve an NTSC color gamut of up to 110%.

[0003] Common quantum dot materials are composed of elements IV, II-VI, IV-VI, or III-V, such as silicon quantum dots, germanium quantum dots, cadmium sulfide quantum dots, cadmium selenide quantum dots, cadmium telluride quantum dots, zinc selenide quantum dots, lead sulfide quantum dots, lead selenide quantum dots, indium phosphide quantum dots, and indium arsenide quantum dots. Currently, the most widely used quantum dot materials are the cadmium selenide (CdSe) series and the indium phosphide (InP) series. The former is mainly used by QD Vision, while the latter is mainly used by Nanoco. Nanosys uses a mixed indium phosphide and cadmium quantum dot scheme. Both types of quantum dots have their advantages and disadvantages. Cadmium selenide excels in high luminous efficiency and a wider color gamut, but it contains cadmium, a heavy metal. Indium phosphide, on the other hand, does not contain cadmium and is therefore not subject to EU RoHS standards.

[0004] Currently, the so-called "quantum dot TVs" sold on the market are all LCD TVs equipped with a quantum dot layer. They are mainly divided into tubular quantum dot backlights and film-type quantum dot backlights. The former is mainly produced by QD Vision in the United States and is called Color IQ optical element; the latter is mainly produced by Nanosys in the United States and is called QDEF film. Since the three colors of light are directly converted from blue light, quantum dot backlights have higher purity of the three primary colors compared to ordinary LED backlights. By adjusting the size distribution of quantum dot materials, a more realistic and balanced color performance can be created.

[0005] Traditional quantum dot optical film products are sandwich-structured films with gas barrier films on the top and bottom, sandwiching a quantum dot main structure layer in the middle. This main structure layer is typically a cadmium-containing, low-cadmium, or cadmium-free quantum dot optical film, with a thickness generally ranging from 50 to 300 μm. In LCD displays, these quantum dot optical films are currently stacked with incremental films before being assembled into the backlight assembly. Therefore, this increases the overall film thickness and assembly time in the backlight assembly, thereby increasing the overall thickness of the LCD display and the costs of manufacturing processes and materials.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention proposes a new solution to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0043] The invention will be described in detail below. The preferred embodiments described herein are for illustrative and descriptive purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0044] Figure 1 A schematic cross-sectional view of the quantum dot composite optical film of the present invention is shown, wherein the quantum dot layer 100 includes an adhesive 101B and a plurality of quantum dots 101A dispersed in the adhesive 101B, wherein a first PET (polyethylene terephthalate) layer 102 and a second PET layer 103 are respectively disposed on the top surface and the bottom surface of the quantum dot layer 100.

[0045] Figure 2 A schematic cross-sectional view of the quantum dot layer 200 of the present invention is shown. The quantum dot layer 200 includes an adhesive 201B and a plurality of quantum dots 201A dispersed in the adhesive 201B. The thickness of the quantum dot layer 200 can range from 25 μm to 350 μm. The quantum dots 201A exhibit high stability when exposed to high temperatures or high humidity, therefore the surface of the quantum dots 201A can be specially treated to improve its resistance to environmental damage caused by water and oxygen; thus, the quantum dots 201A can have sufficient water and oxygen resistance without the need for a barrier layer.

[0046] The quantum dot layer 200 is self-supporting without the need to form a support layer on each of the first main surface 211 and the second main surface 212 of the quantum dot layer 200. Therefore, the adhesive material should be selected as 201B of the quantum dot layer 200, such that the quantum dot layer 200 is self-supporting without the need to form a support layer on each of the first main surface 211 and the second main surface 212 of the quantum dots. Additionally, the material of the adhesive 201B of the quantum dot layer 200 should be selected to protect the quantum dots 201A in the quantum dot layer 200 from damage by oxygen or water. The material of the adhesive 201B may include at least one of the following: PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PAR (polyacrylate), PC (polycarbonate), and TAC (cellulose triacetate). Preferably, the material is PET (polyethylene terephthalate). The material may be pure PET (polyethylene terephthalate). The material of adhesive 201B can be monolithic or homogeneous.

[0047] Quantum dot 201A may include green quantum dots and red quantum dots. The material of quantum dot 201A may include CdS, CdSe, CdTe, ZnSe, PbS, PbSe, InP, InAs, InGaP, ZnS, or ZnTe, but the invention is not limited thereto.

[0050] In one embodiment, the concentration of Cd in the quantum dots is 0.3-2%.

[0052] In one embodiment, the concentration of quantum dots in the quantum dot layer is 0.05-8%.

[0053] In one embodiment, the thickness of the quantum dot layer is 25-350 μm.

[0054] Optionally, the quantum dot layer 200 may include a plurality of diffused particles (not shown); the diffused particles are further provided to increase the uniformity of the quantum dots 201A dispersed in the binder 201B. The material of the diffused particles may be organic (e.g., PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), PS (polystyrene), melamine) or inorganic (e.g., silicon, SiO2, TiO2, CaCO3, Al2O3, ZrO2). The concentration of the diffused particles may be in the range of 2% to 40%, preferably in the range of 5% to 15%.

[0055] Each of the first primary surface 211 and the second primary surface 212 of the quantum dot layer 200 may be a structured surface 213, 214 (see Figure 3 (Quantum dot layer 250 in the quantum dot layer). Structured surfaces 213, 214 can be used to reduce unwanted optical phenomena, such as Newton's rings. Matte structures can be used to form each of the first primary surface 211 and the second primary surface 212 of the quantum dot layer 200.

[0056] The following describes a manufacturing method for forming the quantum dot layer 200.

[0057] A method for forming a quantum dot layer 200 includes forming a quantum dot layer 200 comprising an adhesive 201B and a plurality of quantum dots 201A dispersed in the adhesive 201B. Forming the quantum dot layer 200 includes treating the quantum dots 201A and the material such that the plurality of quantum dots 201A are dispersed in the adhesive 201B. This process may be a co-extrusion process.

[0058] The adhesive 201B may include a first part and a second part, wherein the quantum dot 201A and the first part of the material are combined to form a first component, and the second part of the material is formed into a second component, wherein the first and second components are processed to disperse the quantum dot 201A in the adhesive 201B. This process may be a co-extrusion process.

[0059] For ease of explanation, in embodiment A1 of the present invention, the material of the adhesive 201B is PET; however, the present invention is not limited to this. After the quantum dots 201A are uniformly dispersed by a dispersion process, the quantum dots 201A and a first portion of PET can be combined to form a first component (e.g., by a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder). The first component (i.e., QD in PET) can be in the form of multiple first fragments. The first component can have a high concentration of quantum dots 201A. The first component can have better luminescence effect and better luminescence uniformity. The second component can be made of pure PET or have a high concentration of PET. The second component (i.e., PET) can be in the form of multiple second fragments (i.e., PET fragments). The first component and the second component can be formed into the quantum dot layer 200 of the present invention based on their suitable mass ratio (e.g., by a co-extrusion process).

[0060] The first and second components can be combined into a composite mixture (e.g., via a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder), wherein the composite mixture is processed such that quantum dots 201A are dispersed in binder 201B. This composite mixture can exhibit better luminescence and better luminescence uniformity. The process can be a co-extrusion process. The material of binder 201B can include a first part, a second part, and a third part, wherein quantum dots 201A and the first part of the material are combined to form a first component, forming a second part of the material. Then, the diffused particles and the third part of the material are combined to form a third component, wherein the first, second, and third components are treated to uniformly disperse quantum dots 201A in binder 201B. This process can be a co-extrusion process. The material of binder 201B can be PET; however, the invention is not limited to this. After uniformly dispersing the diffused particles through a dispersion process, the diffused particles and the third part of the PET can be combined to form a third component (e.g., via a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder). The third component (i.e., the diffused particles in the PET) can be in the form of multiple third fragments. The third component can have a high concentration of diffusing particles. Based on their suitable mass ratio (e.g., by co-extrusion), the first, second, and third components can be formed into a quantum dot layer 200 in this invention. The first, second, and third components are incorporated into a composite mixture (e.g., by a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder), wherein the composite mixture is treated to uniformly disperse the quantum dots 201A in the binder 201B. This composite mixture can have better luminescence effect and better luminescence uniformity. This process can be a co-extrusion process.

[0061] Quantum dot 201A may include green quantum dots and red quantum dots. Green quantum dots and a portion of PET may be combined to form a first component (e.g., via a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder). Red quantum dots and another portion of PET may be combined to form a second component (e.g., via a twin-screw extruder or a micro-twin-screw extruder). This process may be a co-extrusion process, which is one of the stretch forming techniques used for film formation. The stretch forming technique may be a biaxial stretch forming technique. Co-extrusion is a process of extruding and combining two or more plastic materials, each having a property Xi, to form a structure having a combination of properties X1, X2, ..., XN (N is an integer greater than 1). When a co-extrusion process is performed in Example A1 using two plastic materials, one plastic material may be the first component and the other plastic material may be the second component.

[0062] The material of the diffusion particles can be PMMA; however, the invention is not limited to this. PET fragments are placed in an oven and dried at 100°C for 24 hours. PMMA beads are placed in an oven and dried at 100°C for 24 hours. A first mixture containing green quantum dots and PET fragments is prepared. The mass of the green quantum dots is 8 g, and the mass of the PET fragments is 72 g. The first mixture is pre-homogenized and then fed into a twin-screw extruder (or a micro-twin-screw extruder or micro-extruder). The first mixture is subjected to a thermal dispersion (or nano-dispersion) process at 280°C (under high shear force) for 10 minutes in the twin-screw extruder to form the first component (i.e., GQD in PET).

[0063] The first component can have a high concentration of green quantum dots. A second mixture containing red quantum dots and PET fragments is prepared. The mass of the red quantum dots is 20g, and the mass of the PET fragments is 72g. The second mixture is pre-homogenized and then fed into a twin-screw extruder (or a micro-twin-screw extruder or micro-extruder). The second mixture is subjected to a thermal dispersion (or nano-dispersion) process (by high shear force) at 280°C in the twin-screw extruder for 10 minutes to form the second component (i.e., RQD in PET). The second component can have a high concentration of red quantum dots.

[0064] Prepare a third mixture containing PMMA beads and PET fragments. The mass of the PMMA beads is 32g, and the mass of the PET fragments is 48g. Pre-homogenize the third mixture, then feed it into a twin-screw extruder (or a micro-twin-screw extruder or micro-extruder). Perform a thermal dispersion (or nano-dispersion) process on the third mixture in the twin-screw extruder (under high shear force) at 280°C for 10 minutes to form the third component (i.e., PMMA in PET). Prepare a fourth mixture containing a first component (i.e., GQD in PET), a second component (i.e., RQD in PET), a third component (i.e., PMMA in PET), and a second component (i.e., PET fragments). The mass of the first component is 13g, the mass of the second component is 6g, the mass of the third component is 16g, and the mass of the fourth component is 30g. Feed the fourth mixture into a twin-screw extruder (or a micro-twin-screw extruder or micro-extruder).

[0065] The fourth mixture is thermally or nano-dispersed in a twin-screw extruder to form a composite mixture, which is then formed into a quantum dot layer by a hot plate.

[0066] In one embodiment, multiple quantum dots are dispersed into the space between PET particles using a micro twin-screw extruder nanodispersion process.

[0067] In one embodiment, PET co-extrusion and biaxial stretching techniques are used to form the PET quantum dot optical film. The PET quantum dot optical film does not require an additional gas barrier film and can still achieve the same level of environmental resistance testing.

In step S402, a quantum dot layer comprising an adhesive and a plurality of quantum dots dispersed in the adhesive is formed, wherein the plurality of quantum dots are water-resistant and oxygen-resistant.
