That is, the size and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are arbitrarily shown, but the present application is not limited to this.
[0049] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a planar structure of a light-emitting substrate provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown.Figure 2 For Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure along the direction of M-M' in the middle, Figure 3 For Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the first three-dimensional structure of the light-emitting device and the optical microstructure in the middle, Figure 4 For Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the first longitudinal cross-sectional structure of the light-emitting device and the optical microstructure in the middle, Figure 5 For Figure 4 The schematic diagram of the enlarged view at N in the middle. Referring to Figure 1 , the light-emitting substrate 100 includes a driving backboard 10 and a light-emitting device 20 disposed on the driving backboard 10. The driving backboard is provided with a driving circuit for driving the light-emitting device 20 to emit light.
[0050] Optionally, a plurality of light-emitting devices 20 are arranged in an array on the driving backboard 10 and are bound to the driving backboard 10. The driving backboard 10 can be silicon-based, PCB-based, glass-based, etc. The driving circuit on the driving backboard 10 can use active driving or passive driving to drive the light-emitting device 20 to emit light. The light-emitting device 20 includes a small-size LED chip such as a Mini Light Emitting Diode (Mini LED) and a Micro Light Emitting Diode (Micro LED).
[0051] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the light-emitting substrate 100 further includes an optical microstructure 30 disposed on the light-emitting path of the light-emitting device 20. That is, the optical microstructure 30 is disposed on the light-emitting side of the light-emitting device 20, such as the optical microstructure 30 directly covering the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting device 20. Each optical microstructure 30 corresponds to one light-emitting device 20. The optical microstructure 30 includes a main body part 31 disposed corresponding to the light-emitting device 20 and an auxiliary part 32 protruding from part of the main body part 31.
[0052] The orthographic projection of the main body part 31 on the driving backboard 10 is located within the orthographic projection of the light-emitting device 20 on the driving backboard 10, that is, the main body part 31 covers the light-emitting device 20 but does not exceed the setting area of the light-emitting device 20. The main body part 31 includes a first bottom surface 312 disposed opposite to the light-emitting device 20 and a first side surface 311 surrounding the first bottom surface 312, and the included angle between the first side surface 311 and the first bottom surface 312 of the main body part 31 is less than 90 degrees.
[0053] Referring to Figure 3The auxiliary part 32 protrudes from the first side surface 311 of the main part 31, and surrounds the main part 31, for example, the auxiliary part 32 surrounds the main part 31 by one round, and the surface shape of the auxiliary part 32 is annular. The auxiliary part 32 comprises a second side surface connected to the first side surface 311 of the main part 31. The second side surface of the auxiliary part 32 is arranged intersecting the first side surface 311 of the main part 31. The second side surface of the auxiliary part 32 comprises a first sub-side surface 321 and a second sub-side surface 322 connected to each other, the first sub-side surface 321 is connected to the first side surface 311 of the main part 31 at a first intersection line 3211, and the second sub-side surface 322 is connected to the first side surface 311 of the main part 31 at a second intersection line, which is located on the side of the first intersection line 3211 away from the light emitting device 20. The first sub-side surface 321 intersects the second sub-side surface 322 at a third intersection line 3213.
[0054] The light emitting substrate 100 further comprises a covering medium arranged on the optical microstructure 30, the refractive index of the main part 31 is greater than the refractive index of the covering medium, and the refractive index of the auxiliary part 32 is greater than the refractive index of the covering medium. The covering medium comprises air or other medium covering the surface of the optical microstructure 30, such as a protective adhesive layer and the like. The refractive index of the auxiliary part 32 is greater than or equal to the refractive index of the main part 31, and the refractive index of the main part 31 is greater than or equal to 1.4, for example, the refractive index of the main part 31 is 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 or the like. Optionally, when the refractive index of the auxiliary part 32 is equal to the refractive index of the main part 31, the auxiliary part 32 and the main part 31 are integrally arranged to enhance the bonding force between the auxiliary part 32 and the main part 31, and to ensure that the refractive index of the auxiliary part 32 is equal to the refractive index of the main part 31.
[0055] The material of the main part 31 comprises at least one of silica gel, resin and other high refractive index transparent materials. Taking silica gel as an example, the auxiliary part 32 and the main part 31 can be integrally arranged by the following method: applying silica gel glue on the light emitting surface of the light emitting device 20; using a designed mold to press the silica gel glue to shape; after the silica gel glue is cured and formed, demolding can obtain the integrally formed optical microstructure 30, and the auxiliary part 32 and the main part 31 are integrally arranged.
[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, the auxiliary part 32 can also be arranged separately from the main part 31, for example, the auxiliary part 32 can be arranged in close contact with the main part 31.
[0057] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4The surface shape of the main body 31 is a pyramid shape, such as a pyramid shape, that is, the three-dimensional structure of the main body 31 is a pyramid, such as a quadrangular pyramid. Specifically, when the three-dimensional structure of the main body 31 is a quadrangular pyramid, the main body 31 includes a first bottom surface 312 and four triangular side surfaces. The first bottom surface 312 corresponds to the light emitting surface of the light emitting device 20, and the shape of the first bottom surface 312 is a quadrilateral shape, each side of which corresponds to one side of the light emitting device 20, that is, the shape of the first bottom surface 312 is adapted to the shape of the light emitting device 20, and the size of the first bottom surface 312 depends on the size of the light emitting device 20. For example, when the surface shape of the main body 31 is a pyramid shape, the surface shape of the light emitting device 20 is a prism, and the cross-sectional shape of the light emitting device 20 is a square.
[0058] The four triangular side surfaces surround the first bottom surface 312 and are respectively connected to one side of the quadrilateral of the first bottom surface 312, and intersect at a vertex on the side away from the first bottom surface 312. The vertical distance from the vertex to the light emitting device 20 is the height of the main body 31. The vertical distance between the third intersection line 3213 on the auxiliary body 32 and the plane of the first bottom surface 312 of the main body 31 is less than or equal to the height of the main body 31, so as to avoid interference between the auxiliary body 32 and the structure above the main body 31.
[0059] Referring to Figure 4 The emitted light of the light emitting device 20 includes first light rays L1, second light rays L2, and a central light ray L0. The first light rays L1 are the boundary light rays of the emitted light, the central light ray L0 is perpendicular to the light emitting surface of the light emitting device 20, and the second light rays L2 are located between the first light rays L1 and the central light ray L0. The beam angle of the first light rays L1 is greater than the beam angle of the second light rays L2, and the first light rays L1 are the boundary light rays, that is, the beam angle of the first light rays L1 is the light emitting angle c of the light emitting device 20. The beam angle of the first light rays L1 refers to the included angle between two first light rays L1 located in the same plane, and the two first light rays L1 are symmetric about the central normal of the light emitting device 20, that is, the included angle between the two first light rays L1 symmetric about the central normal of the light emitting device 20 is the beam angle of the first light rays L1. The central light ray L0 coincides with the central normal.
[0060] The light emitting angle c of the light emitting device 20 refers to a light emitting range of the light emitting device 20, that is, a light diffusion range of the light emitting device 20, and the boundary light is a light ray at a position with the largest diffusion range in the light emitted by the light emitting device 20, and the beam angle of the boundary light represents the light emitting angle c of the light emitting device 20. In addition, the beam angles of other exit light of the light emitting device 20 mentioned in the present application can refer to the description of the beam angle of the first light ray L1, such as the beam angle of the second light ray L2 can refer to the description of the beam angle of the first light ray L1, which will not be described here.
[0061] The second light ray L2 is perpendicular to the first side surface 311 of the main body 31, and the auxiliary part 32 is located at least on the light emitting path of the exit light between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2, that is, the auxiliary part 32 is located at least on the light emitting path of the exit light with the beam angle between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2, in other words, the auxiliary part 32 at least covers the light emitting area between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2 on the main body 31. At least part of the exit light between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2 converges to the center light ray L0 after passing through the side surface of the auxiliary part 32, that is, converges to the central area of the light emitting path of the light emitting device 20, so that the large-angle exit light of the light emitting device 20 converges to the central area of the light emitting path, converges the light emitting angle of the light emitting device 20, and improves the halo problem.
[0062] And the exit light between the center light ray L0 and the second light ray L2, that is, the exit light with a beam angle smaller than the beam angle of the second light ray L2 in the exit light of the light emitting device 20, converges to the center light ray L0 after passing through the first side surface 311 of the main body 31, that is, converges to the central area of the light emitting path of the light emitting device 20, so as to improve the brightness of the light emitting device 20. Wherein, the central area of the light emitting path of the light emitting device 20 refers to the area where the central normal of the light emitting device 20 is located.
[0063] Specifically, the exit light of the light emitting device 20 further includes third light ray L3 and fourth light ray L4. The third light ray L3 is exit light with a beam angle smaller than the beam angle of the second light ray L2. Since the second light ray L2 is perpendicular to the first side surface 311 of the main body 31, the first exit light ray D2' after the second light ray L2 passes through the first side surface 311 of the main body 31 is still perpendicular to the first side surface 311 of the main body 31. The second exit light ray L3' after the third light ray L3 passes through the first side surface 311 of the main body 31 converges to the central normal of the light emitting device 20, so as to improve the brightness of the light emitting device 20.
[0064] The fourth light ray L4 has a beam angle greater than that of the second light ray L2 but less than that of the first light ray L1. The third emergent light ray after the first light ray L1 passes through the side surface of the auxiliary portion 32 converges toward the central normal of the light emitting device 20, and the fourth emergent light ray after the fourth light ray L4 passes through the side surface of the auxiliary portion 32 converges toward the central normal of the light emitting device 20, so that the large-angle emergent light of the light emitting device 20 converges toward the central region of the light emitting path, converges the light emitting angle of the light emitting device 20, and improves the halo problem.
[0065] With reference to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the included angle e between the first light ray L1 and the first sub-side surface 321 portion extending toward the second sub-side surface 322 is greater than or equal to 90 degrees, so that the included angle between each emergent light located between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2 and the first sub-side surface 321 portion extending toward the second sub-side surface 322 is greater than 90 degrees, and further so that at least part of the emergent light located between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2 converges toward the central region of the light emitting path of the light emitting device 20 after passing through the side surface of the auxiliary portion 32.
[0066] Of course, in order to also make the first light ray L1 converge toward the central normal region of the light emitting device 20 after passing through the first sub-side surface 321, the included angle e between the first light ray L1 and the first sub-side surface 321 portion extending toward the second sub-side surface 322 needs to be greater than 90 degrees, so as to further converge the light emitting angle of the light emitting device 20 and improve the halo problem.
[0067] Specifically, with reference to Figure 5 , the emergent point of the first light ray L1 on the first sub-side surface 321 is a first emergent point, and the first emergent point is located on the first intersection line 3211. The emergent point of the second light ray L2 on the first side surface 311 of the main body portion 31 is a second emergent point, and the second emergent point is located on the second intersection line. At this time, the orthographic projection of the auxiliary portion 32 on the main body portion 31 coincides with the emergent region between the first light ray L1 and the second light ray L2, and the coincident region is also the region where the auxiliary portion 32 and the main body portion 31 are connected. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application take the auxiliary portion 32 and the main body portion 31 as an example, and therefore, the auxiliary portion 32 and the main body portion 31 in the drawings of the present application are distinguished by a dashed line as the boundary line between the auxiliary portion 32 and the main body portion 31. The connection between the auxiliary portion 32 and the main body portion 31 is the position where the boundary line is located.
[0068] The first side surface 311 of the main body part 31 and the first bottom surface 312 of the main body part 31 are connected to each other, and the included angle between the first side surface 311 of the main body part 31 and the first bottom surface 312 of the main body part 31 is a first included angle a. The first side surface 311 of the main body part 31 includes a third sub-side surface 3111, and the third sub-side surface 3111 is covered by the auxiliary part 32. When the main body part 31 and the auxiliary part 32 are integrally arranged, the third sub-side surface 3111 is a virtual boundary surface of the main body part 31 and the auxiliary part 32, and the boundary line is located on the virtual boundary surface.

For other descriptions, please refer to the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0079] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 8 , Figure 8 A fourth longitudinal cross-sectional structure diagram of the light emitting device 20 and the optical microstructure 30 provided in the embodiments of the present application is shown. Referring to Figure 8 , and Figure 6 In the example embodiment, the second sub-side surface 322 is arranged beyond the region between the first light L1 and the second light L2, and the light emitted between the first light L1 and the second light L2 can pass through the first sub-side surface 321.

[0084] by Figure 4 Taking the optical microstructure 30 as an example, refer to Figures 1 to 16 , Figure 12 for Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the optical microstructure 30 converging the light emitting angle c of the light emitting device 20. Figure 12 When the light-emitting microstructure is not provided, the beam angle of the first light L1 remains unchanged and is emitted as a virtual emitted light L1″, which is collinear with the first light L1. The angle between the virtual emitted light L1″ and the first emitted light is a fourth angle, which satisfies the following relationship: Wherein, n is the refractive index of the main portion 31, which is also the refractive index of the auxiliary portion 32. When n = 1.4, a = 44°, b = 49°, and c = 140°, it can be obtained that f = 10.16°. Therefore, it can be seen that by providing the optical microstructure 30, the light-emitting angle of the light-emitting device 20 can be converged by 20°. That is, when the optical microstructure 30 is not provided, the light-emitting angle c of the light-emitting device 20 is 140 degrees; however, after the optical microstructure 30 is provided in the present application, the light-emitting angle c of the light-emitting device 20 is converged by 20 degrees, and the light-emitting angle c of the light-emitting device 20 is reduced to 120 degrees.

[0087] Referring to Figure 14 and Figure 15 , the brightness of the central region of the light-emitting device 20 is greater than the light-emitting brightness of the halo range, and the light-emitting brightness gradually decreases from the central region of the light-emitting device 20 to the halo region. When the optical microstructure 30 is not arranged, the light-emitting diffusion range of the light-emitting device 20 occupies 10*10 partitions.
[0088] Referring to Figure 16 , Figure 16 , the curve Q1 represents the brightness variation of the light-emitting device 20 in different partitions when the optical microstructure 30 is not arranged, and the curve Q2 represents the brightness variation of the light-emitting device 20 in different partitions when the optical microstructure 30 is arranged.
