In the application, a sapphire lens 4 with the same size as the backlight assembly 302 and coated with a near-infrared cutoff film 401 is attached to the TFT main body 303 with the first optical glue 402. The near-infrared cutoff film 401 can cut off infrared light with a wavelength range of 800-2500nm, and the sapphire lens 4 itself does not transmit far-infrared light with a wavelength greater than 2500nm.

[0052] The near infrared is isolated by the near infrared cut-off film 401, and the sapphire mirror 4 is not permeable to far infrared, in normal air, the infrared is almost not permeable in the 5-8um wavelength range, and is absorbed by water vapor and other substances in the air, so that the design of the application can effectively isolate the near, middle and far infrared, protect the TFT main body 303, and reduce the burn-in of the TFT main body 303.
