Specific embodiments

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0029] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in the present application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0030] In order to further elaborate on the technical means and effects adopted by the present application to achieve the predetermined purpose, the following detailed description of the present application is made in conjunction with the drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the backlight module 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes a plurality of first light-emitting units 1, a plurality of second light-emitting units 2, and a modulation module 3. Each first light-emitting unit 1 is configured to emit a first light L1 and a second light L2. Each second light-emitting unit 2 is configured to emit a third light L3. The modulation module 3 is configured to receive the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3, and is configured to modulate the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 into illumination light La and then emit it.

[0032] The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the first light L1 and the second light L2 at the first wavelength is less than the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the third light L3 at the first wavelength (the first wavelength is in the first band), that is, the light intensities of the first light L1 and the second light L2 in the first band have significant peaks. The first light L1 and the second light L2 are used to supplement the light intensity of the third light L3 in the first band. That is, the monochromaticity of the first light-emitting unit 1 in the first band is better than that of the second light-emitting unit 2, so that the first light-emitting unit 1 can make up for the disadvantage of the weaker monochromaticity of the second light-emitting unit 2 in the first band, that is, it can make up for the color deficiency of the second light-emitting unit 2 in the first band; and the light intensities of the first light L1 and the second light L2 in other bands except the first band (such as Figure 2 600nm - 660nm in

[0033] also have significant peaks, that is, the monochromaticity of the first light-emitting unit 1 in other bands except the first band is also better than that of the second light-emitting unit 2, so that the first light-emitting unit 1 can also make up for the disadvantage of the weaker monochromaticity of the second light-emitting unit 2 in other bands except the first band.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first wavelength band may be 500 nm - 600 nm, that is, the first wavelength band is the region from green light to yellow light in the visible spectrum. The first wavelength is within the first wavelength band. For example, the first wavelength may be any value among 500 nm, 510 nm, 520 nm, 525 nm, 527 nm, 530 nm, 540 nm, 550 nm, 560 nm, 570 nm, 580 nm, 590 nm, and 600 nm. Since the human eye is sensitive to green light, that is, sensitive to the light in the first wavelength band, when the mixed-modulated illumination light La has good luminous brightness and good monochromaticity in the first wavelength band, compared with the backlight module composed of a single light-emitting unit, it is beneficial to improve the color gamut coverage and luminous brightness, and further beneficial to simultaneously achieve high brightness, high contrast, and wide color gamut, and further beneficial to improve the usage experience of the display device using the backlight module 100.

[0035] Specifically, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the illumination light La at the first wavelength satisfies: 0 nm < FWHM < 30 nm, and the maximum effective light intensity of the illumination light La within the range of the first wavelength band is greater than 5000 cd / m 2 . The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the illumination light La at the first wavelength may be any value among 1 nm, 2 nm, 3 nm, 4 nm, 5 nm, 6 nm, 7 nm, 8 nm, 9 nm, 10 nm, 11 nm, 12 nm, 13 nm, 14 nm, 15 nm, 16 nm, 17 nm, 18 nm, 19 nm, 20 nm, 21 nm, 22 nm, 23 nm, 24 nm, 25 nm, 26 nm, 27 nm, 28 nm, and 29 nm. The maximum effective light intensity of the illumination light La within the range of the first wavelength band may be 5100 cd / m 2 , 5300 cd / m 2 , 5500 cd / m 2 , 5700 cd / m 2 , 5900 cd / m 2 , 6000 cd / m 2 , 6500 cd / m 2 , 7000 cd / m 2 , 7500 cd / m 2 , 8000 cd / m 2、 8500 cd / m 2 , 9000 cd / m 2 , 9500 cd / m 2 , 10000 cd / m 2 , 20000 cd / m 2 , 30000 cd / m 2 and 40000 cd / m 2Any value among them. In other embodiments, the first band may also be 400nm - 500nm or 600nm - 700nm, and the present application does not limit it.

[0036] When the full width at half maximum FWHM of the illumination light La at the first wavelength and the maximum effective light intensity of the illumination light La within the range of the first band satisfy the above relationship, the monochromaticity of the illumination light La within the first band can be improved, thereby ensuring the proportion of partial light of the illumination light La within the first band. Compared with the backlight module composed of a single light-emitting unit, it is beneficial to improve the color gamut coverage and the light-emitting brightness, and further beneficial to simultaneously achieve high brightness, high contrast, and wide color gamut, and further beneficial to improve the usage experience of the display device applying the backlight module 100.

[0037] The backlight module 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application, by setting a plurality of first light-emitting units 1, a plurality of second light-emitting units 2, and a modulation module 3, each first light-emitting unit 1 is used to emit a first light L1 and a second light L2, each second light-emitting unit 2 is used to emit a third light L3, and the modulation module 3 receives and is used to modulate the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 into an illumination light La and then emits it, so as to output mixed light. The first light L1 and the second light L2 are used to supplement the light intensity of the third light L3 within the first band, and can make up for the color deficiency of the second light-emitting unit 2 within the first band. The full width at half maximum FWHM of the illumination light La at the first wavelength satisfies: 0nm < FWHM < 30nm; it is beneficial to improve the color gamut coverage, and thus beneficial to achieve a wide color gamut; the maximum effective light intensity of the illumination light La within the range of the first band is greater than 5000cd / m 2 , the first wavelength is located within the first band, which can improve the brightness of the illumination light La within the first band, thereby being beneficial to improving the contrast of the backlight module 100, and further beneficial to simultaneously achieving high brightness, high contrast, and wide color gamut.

[0038] In some embodiments, the modulation module 3 includes a diffusion plate 31. The diffusion plate 31 includes a first light-emitting surface 311 and a first light-incident surface 312 opposite to the first light-emitting surface 311. The first light-emitting surface 311 and the first light-incident surface 312 are substantially rectangular. A plurality of first light-emitting units 1 and a plurality of second light-emitting units 2 are simultaneously arranged on the side of the first light-incident surface 312 away from the first light-emitting surface 311. The plurality of first light-emitting units 1 and the plurality of second light-emitting units 2 emit the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 towards the diffusion plate 31. The diffusion plate 31 is used to mix and diffuse the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 into an illumination light La, and the first light-emitting surface 311 is used to emit the illumination light La.

[0039] In some embodiments, multiple first light-emitting units 1 and multiple second light-emitting units 2 are arranged in a matrix, and the first light-emitting units 1 and the second light-emitting units 2 in the same row or the same column are alternately arranged at equal intervals. The sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, that is, the light intensity magnitude of the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity magnitude of the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2. Specifically, the sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by each first light-emitting unit 1 is equal, the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by each second light-emitting unit 2 is also equal, and the number ratio of the first light-emitting units 1 and the second light-emitting units 2 in the backlight module 100 is 1:1.

[0040] By setting the sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 to be equal to the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, the diffusion plate 31 can mix the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 with equal light intensity magnitudes and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2; when the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by the first light-emitting units 1 have a good color gamut coverage rate and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by the second light-emitting units 2 have a good luminous brightness, the diffusion plate 31 can mix the light rays emitted by the two types of light-emitting units more uniformly, that is, the illumination light La after mixing by the diffusion plate 31 has the advantages of the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, which is beneficial to improving the brightness of the backlight module 100, beneficial to improving the color gamut coverage rate of the backlight module 100, and thus beneficial to the backlight module 100 to achieve high brightness and wide color gamut simultaneously.

[0041] In other embodiments, the sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by each first light-emitting unit 1 may not be equal, the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by each second light-emitting unit 2 may not be equal, and the number ratio of the first light-emitting units 1 and the second light-emitting units 2 in the backlight module 100 may also be other values, such as 1:2 or 1:3, as long as the sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, it is within the protection scope of this application.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, in some embodiments, the plurality of first light-emitting units 1 and the plurality of second light-emitting units 2 are arranged in a matrix. The light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the plurality of first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity of the second light L2, and the light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the plurality of first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the plurality of second light-emitting units 2. That is, the light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the plurality of first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity of the second light L2 and is also equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the plurality of second light-emitting units 2.

[0043] In this embodiment, the number ratio of the first light-emitting units 1 to the second light-emitting units 2 in the backlight module 100 is 2:1. The light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by each first light-emitting unit 1 is equal to the light intensity of the second light L2; and the light intensity of the first light L1 (or the light intensity of the second light L2) emitted by one first light-emitting unit 1 is equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by one second light-emitting unit 2. That is, the sum of the light intensities of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by one first light-emitting unit 1 is equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by two second light-emitting units 2. The number of the second light-emitting units 2 is inversely proportional to the average value of the light intensities of the third light L3 emitted by the plurality of second light-emitting units 2; that is, to satisfy that the light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the plurality of first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the plurality of second light-emitting units 2, the smaller the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by a single second light-emitting unit 2, the more the number of the second light-emitting units 2.

[0044] In other embodiments, the number ratio of the first light-emitting units 1 to the second light-emitting units 2 in the backlight module 100 can also be other ratios, such as 3:1, 4:1, 1:2, 1:3 or 1:4, which is not limited in this application.

[0045] By setting the light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 to be equal to the light intensity of the second light L2, setting the light intensity of the first light L1 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 to be equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, and making the number of the second light-emitting units 2 inversely proportional to the average value of the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, the diffusion plate 31 can mix the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 with equal light intensity; when the first light L1 and the second light L2 have good color gamut coverage and luminous brightness, and the third light L3 has good luminous brightness, the diffusion plate 31 can mix the three lights emitted by the two types of light-emitting units more evenly. That is, the illumination light La after mixing by the diffusion plate 31 has the advantages of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 and the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2, which is beneficial to further improving the brightness of the backlight module 100, beneficial to further improving the color gamut coverage of the backlight module 100, and thus beneficial to the backlight module 100 to achieve high brightness and wide color gamut simultaneously.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments, the modulation module 3 includes a light guide plate 33, and the multiple first light-emitting units 1 and the multiple second light-emitting units 2 emit the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 toward the light guide plate 33. The light guide plate 33 is configured to receive the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3, and configured to mix the first light L1, the second light L2, and the third light L3 into the illumination light La and then emit it. The sum of the light intensity of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by the multiple first light-emitting units 1 is equal to the light intensity of the third light L3 emitted by the multiple second light-emitting units 2.

[0047] By setting the sum of the light intensity magnitudes of the first light L1 and the second light L2 emitted by multiple first light-emitting units 1 to be equal to the light intensity magnitude of the third light L3 emitted by multiple second light-emitting units 2, the light guide plate 33 can mix the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by multiple first light-emitting units 1 with equal light intensity magnitudes and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by multiple second light-emitting units 2; when the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by the first light-emitting units 1 have a good color gamut coverage rate and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by the second light-emitting units 2 have a good luminous brightness, the light guide plate 33 can mix the light rays emitted by the two types of light-emitting units more uniformly, that is, the illumination light La after mixing by the light guide plate 33 has the advantages of the light rays (the first light L1 and the second light L2) emitted by multiple first light-emitting units 1 and the light rays (the third light L3) emitted by multiple second light-emitting units 2, which is beneficial to improving the brightness of the backlight module 100, beneficial to improving the color gamut coverage rate of the backlight module 100, and thus beneficial to the backlight module 100 to achieve high brightness and wide color gamut simultaneously.

[0048] Specifically, the light guide plate 33 includes a second light-emitting surface 331, a first side surface 332 and a second side surface 333 that are respectively connected to the second light-emitting surface 331, and the first side surface 332 and the second side surface 333 are opposite to each other.
