[0042] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this application will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only configured to explain this application and are not configured to limit this application. For those skilled in the art, this application can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely to provide a better understanding of this application by illustrating examples of this application.

[0043] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.

[0044] It should be understood that when describing the structure of a component, when referring to a layer or region as being "above" or "on top of" another layer or region, it can mean that it is directly above the other layer or region, or that it contains other layers or regions between it and the other layer or region. Furthermore, if the component is flipped over, that layer or region will be located "below" or "under" the other layer or region.

[0045] In related technologies, a polarizing module is placed on one side of the display panel to improve the display effect. This technology involves laser-cutting the polarizing module to fit the size of the display panel. However, microcracks exist in the laser-cut area of ​​the polarizing module. With prolonged use, these cracks gradually propagate, affecting the display. When the cracks spread towards the center of the display module, they can also cause the polarizing module to detach from the functional layers stacked on either side, creating air bubbles and further impacting the display effect.

[0046] Existing solutions cannot adequately address the technical problems. To resolve these issues, this application provides a polarizing module, a fabrication method, and a display module. The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will illustrate various embodiments of the polarizing module, the fabrication method, and the display module.

[0047] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The polarizing module 10 is disposed on one side of the motherboard 20. The motherboard 20 includes at least one display panel 2, which includes a display area AA and a non-display area NA surrounding at least a portion of the display area AA.

[0048] The polarizing module 10 has a main body area 11 and a focusing area 12; the polarizing module 10 includes a polarizing layer 1, which has a first polarizing surface 15 close to the mother plate 20 and a second polarizing surface 16 away from the mother plate 20.

[0049] The main area 11 corresponds to the display area AA, and the light-concentrating area 12 corresponds to the non-display area NA; the light-concentrating area 12 is used to collect the light rays that enter the polarizing layer 1 from the second polarizing surface 16 of the polarizing layer 1.

[0050] The display panel 2 can be divided into a display area AA and a non-display area NA extending from the display area AA. The display area AA is the area for displaying images, and the non-display area NA is the area for not displaying images. Furthermore, the display area AA contains components for displaying images, such as light-emitting units and pixel arrays. The non-display area NA contains integrated circuits for functions such as signal transmission and driving the light-emitting units to emit light. It should be noted that the non-display area NA can extend outward from one side of the display area AA, but it is not limited to this; the non-display area NA can also extend outward from multiple sides of the display area AA.

[0051] Please see Figure 4 When fabricating the display module 100, the various structures in the display panel 2 can be assembled first to obtain a motherboard 20 containing the display panel 2. Then, a polarizing layer 1 is placed on one side of the motherboard 20, and the first polarizing surface 15 contacts the motherboard 20. The motherboard 20 is then cut to ensure high dimensional consistency of the fabricated display panel 2. If the fabricated motherboard 20 includes one display panel 2, one or more ends of the motherboard 20 can be cut to obtain a cut display panel 2. Alternatively, multiple display panels 2 can be pre-fabricated in one motherboard 20, and the same functional layers in multiple display panels 2 can be fabricated simultaneously, thereby improving fabrication efficiency. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 A polarizing layer 1 is disposed on one side of the motherboard 20. The non-display area NA can be laser-cut, thereby separating the polarizing layer 1 and the motherboard 20 into multiple independent display modules 100. Each display module 100 includes a cut polarizing layer 1 and a display panel 2. The polarizing layer 1 is disposed on one side of the display panel 2. The polarizing layer 1 is used to reduce the impact of reflected light on the display effect of the display module 100; that is, the polarizing layer 1 can reduce the reflection of ambient light incident on the display module 100. Before laser cutting, the polarizing layer 1 can cover the entire motherboard 20 so that in the cut display module 100, the polarizing layer 1 can cover one side of the display panel 2. In the cut display module 100, the main area 11 of the polarizing layer 1 corresponds to the display area AA of the display panel 2, and the focusing area 12 corresponds to the non-display area NA of the display panel 2.

[0052] Please see Figure 5 When cutting the motherboard 20 with the polarizing layer 1, the laser L acts on the focusing area 12. The focusing area 12 collects the laser L incident from the second polarizing surface 16, thereby reducing the effective area of ​​the laser L in each functional layer of the polarizing layer 1. This improves the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the laser-affected area and the area not affected by the laser L, and to a certain extent avoids or reduces cracks in the polarizing layer 1 caused by laser cutting. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 6After cutting, the light-concentrating area 12 is divided into at least two parts, and the display panels 2 on the adjacent sides of the light-concentrating area 12 have different parts of the light-concentrating area 12 after cutting.

[0053] In the polarizing module 10 provided in this application, by setting a focusing area 12 in the polarizing module 10 and configuring the focusing area 12 to gather the light rays incident from the second polarizing surface 16, when the polarizing module 10 is cut, the cutting laser acts on the focusing area 12 and is focused by the focusing area 12, which to a certain extent avoids or reduces the cracks in the cut polarizing layer 1 caused by laser cutting, and improves the display effect of the display module 100 with the polarizing layer 1.

[0054] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the polarizing layer 1 includes a plurality of stacked functional layers 14, at least one of which includes a focusing structure 13 disposed in the focusing region 12. The focusing structure 13 is used to collect light rays incident from the side of the focusing structure 13 away from the first polarizing surface 15.

[0055] The focusing region 12 focuses light through the focusing structure 13. When only one functional layer 14 in the polarizing layer 1 includes the focusing structure 13, light entering the focusing region 12 is focused by the focusing structure 13, and the light emitted from the focusing structure 13 passes through a functional layer 14 without the focusing structure 13 and enters the next functional layer 14. When multiple functional layers 14 in the polarizing layer 1 include the focusing structure 13, light entering the focusing region 12 is focused to different degrees by different focusing structures 13, and the light emitted from the focusing structure 13 can pass through a functional layer 14 without the focusing structure 13 and enter the next functional layer 14. By sequentially focusing light through multiple focusing structures 13 arranged along the optical path, the curvature of a single focusing structure 13 can be reduced to a certain extent, avoiding the need to increase the thickness of the functional layer 14 containing the focusing structure 13 to obtain the desired curvature.

[0056] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the light-concentrating structure 13 is a light-concentrating lens, which can concentrate the incoming light.

[0057] In some embodiments, the light-concentrating structure 13 includes a first light-concentrating surface 131 and a second light-concentrating surface 132 disposed opposite to each other, wherein at least one of the first light-concentrating surface 131 and the second light-concentrating surface 132 is a curved surface.

[0058] At least one of the first focusing surface 131 and the second focusing surface 132 is a curved surface, so that the focusing structure 13 can be configured as a convex-convex lens, a convex-concave lens, a plano-convex lens, etc., as needed.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first focusing surface 131 is a curved surface that convexes toward the first polarizing surface 15. Light rays are converged by the first focusing surface 131.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second focusing surface 132 is a curved surface that convexes in a direction away from the first polarizing surface 15. Light rays are converged by the second focusing surface 132 and the first focusing surface 131, and the focusing structure 13 is a convex lens.

[0061] In some embodiments, the first focusing surface 131 is a plane, perpendicular to the first direction X, and multiple functional layers 14 are stacked along the first direction X. Light passes through the second focusing surface 132 and enters the focusing structure 13, where the second focusing surface 132 converges the light emitted from the focusing structure 13. The first focusing surface 131 does not change the emission direction of the light, and the focusing structure 13 is a plano-convex lens.

[0062] In some embodiments, the plurality of functional layers 14 includes a first functional layer 141, the first functional layer 141 includes a light-concentrating structure 13, and the first functional layer 141 is located at the end of the plurality of functional layers 14 away from the first polarizing surface 15.

[0063] The first functional layer 141 is located at the end of the plurality of functional layers 14 away from the first polarizing surface 15, so that when the laser enters the focusing area 12, it is focused by the focusing structure 13 in the first functional layer 141, so that the effective area of ​​the laser in any functional layer 14 other than the first functional layer 141 is smaller than the effective area of ​​the laser in the first functional layer 141, which is beneficial to reduce cracks in the polarizing layer 1.

[0064] In some embodiments, the first functional layer 141 is a polymethyl methacrylate layer.

[0065] The polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) layer is a layer structure made entirely or primarily of PMMA. PMMA has excellent transparency, resulting in high transmittance of the PMMA layer, allowing it to smoothly pass through the cutting laser to the next functional layer 14. PMMA has high mechanical strength and toughness, enabling the PMMA layer to effectively protect the internal components of the display panel 2 from external impacts or scratches. PMMA is a thermoplastic polymer that is easily processed into the required shapes and sizes.

[0066] In some embodiments, the plurality of functional layers 14 further include: a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 142 (PSA), a first trivinylmethane (TAC) layer 143, a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) layer 144, and a second trivinylmethane (TAC) layer 145, which are stacked sequentially, with the PMMA layer disposed on the side of the second TAC layer opposite to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 145.

[0067] TAC possesses excellent optical transparency and conductivity, ensuring clarity and brightness in the display. PVA exhibits good optical properties and mechanical strength, supporting and protecting other components within the LCD screen. PSA offers excellent adhesion and adjustable bonding, ensuring a secure connection between different components and allowing for easy peeling or repositioning when needed.

[0068] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the polarizing module 10 further includes a release layer 3 located on the side of the first polarizing surface 15 opposite to the second polarizing surface 16.

[0069] Release layer 3 can be bonded to pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 142 for convenient transportation and storage of polarizing module 10. After peeling off release layer 3 from polarizing module 10, it can be bonded to motherboard 20 through pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 142.

[0070] In some embodiments, the light-concentrating area 12 is located between a plurality of main areas 11.

[0071] When the motherboard 20 includes multiple display panels 2 arranged in an array, the polarizing module 10 can be configured to have multiple main areas 11, and each main area 11 can correspond one-to-one with the display area AA of the display panel 2 in the motherboard 20. In the motherboard 20, the non-display area NA is located between the multiple display areas AA, and the focusing area 12 of the non-display area NA is located between the multiple main areas 11.

[0072] In some embodiments, the light-concentrating area 12 is located at both ends of the main body area 11.

[0073] When the motherboard 20 includes a display panel 2, or when the motherboard 20 includes multiple display panels arranged sequentially in one direction, a focusing area 12 can be set at both ends of the main body area 11 in the corresponding polarizing module 10.

[0074] In some embodiments, the focal point of the focusing region 12 is located on the first polarizing surface 15. When the polarizing layer 1 is disposed on the display panel 2, the first polarizing surface 15 is in contact with the surface of the display panel 2 near the polarizing layer 1, that is, the focal point of the focusing region 12 is located on the surface of the display panel 2 near the polarizing layer 1, so as to reduce the total effective area of ​​the laser in each functional layer in the polarizing layer 1.

[0075] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide a method for manufacturing a display module, which includes:

[0076] S100 provides a motherboard and a polarizing module, and a polarizing layer of the polarizing module is disposed on the motherboard.

[0077] S200, a laser is shone from the second polarizing surface into the focusing area, and the focusing area converges the shone light to cut the mother plate and the polarizing layer along the focusing area to obtain a display module. The display module includes a display panel and a polarizing layer disposed on one side of the display panel.

The polarizing module provided in the above embodiments has all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned polarizing module, which will not be repeated here.

[0079] Thirdly, this application also provides a display module 100, please refer to... Figure 7 The display module 100 includes a display panel 2 and a polarizing layer 1. The display panel 2 includes a display area AA and a non-display area NA surrounding at least a portion of the display area AA. The polarizing layer 1 is disposed on one side of the display panel 2. The polarizing layer 1 includes a main area 11 and a focusing area 12. The main area 11 is disposed on one side of the display area AA, and the focusing area 12 is disposed on one side of the non-display area NA. The polarizing layer 1 has a first polarizing surface 15 close to the display panel 2 and a second polarizing surface 16 away from the display panel 2. The focusing area 12 is used to collect light rays that enter the polarizing layer 1 from the second polarizing surface 16 of the polarizing layer 1.

[0080] The display module 100 provided in this application embodiment has the relevant structure of the aforementioned polarizing module 10. Please refer to the polarizing module 10 provided in the above embodiments. It has all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned polarizing module 10, which will not be repeated here.

[0081] The display module 100 provided in the embodiments of this application can also be a display module 100 prepared by the preparation method provided in the second aspect, having the relevant structure of the display module 100 prepared by the aforementioned preparation method. Please refer to the display module 100 provided in the above embodiments, which has all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned display module 100, and will not be repeated here.

[0082] In some embodiments, the display area AA is located within the orthographic projection of the main area 11 onto the display panel 2, and the spotlight area 12 is located within the non-display area NA in the orthographic projection of the display panel 2.

[0083] For example, the display area AA and the main area 11 have the same size, and the spotlight area 12 and the non-display area NA have the same size.

[0084] For example, the size of the display area AA is smaller than the size of the main area 11, and the size of the spotlight area 12 is smaller than the size of the non-display area NA. That is, the main area 11 can extend outward relative to the display area AA to ensure that the ambient light emitted from the outside to the display module 100 can be adjusted by the main area 11; the non-display area NA can extend outward relative to the spotlight area 12 to ensure that the light emitted from the spotlight area 12 will not affect the display area AA.

[0085] In some embodiments, the display module 100 further includes an adhesive layer 4 and a cover plate 5, the cover plate 5 being disposed on the side of the polarizing layer 1 away from the display panel 2, and the adhesive layer 4 bonding the polarizing layer 1 and the cover plate 5.

[0086] The cover plate 5 has good mechanical strength, enabling it to protect the display module 100 and reduce or prevent damage to the display module 100 from external forces. The adhesive layer 4 can be applied to the polarizing layer 1 so that the cover plate 5 can be mounted on one side of the display panel 2 through the adhesive layer 4. Preferably, the adhesive layer 4 is optically clear adhesive (OCA).

[0087] Please refer to the following: Figure 8 In some embodiments, the display area AA includes a first display area AA1, a second display area AA2, and a bent display area AA3, wherein the bent display area AA3 connects the first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2.

[0088] The display module 100 provided in this application can switch between an unfolded state and a folded state. The display module 100 has a folded state and a flat state. When the display module 100 is folded, the bent display area AA3 is at least partially bent into an arc shape around the bending axis L. The first display area AA1 and the second display area AA2 connected to the bent display area AA3 can be stacked, thereby reducing the volume of the display module 100. When the bent display area AA3 is unfolded, the bent display area AA3, the first display area AA1, and the second display area AA2 can be displayed flat together, thereby obtaining a larger display area.
