Solution Overview

Problem

Existing 3D display devices face challenges in balancing display effect and production capacity, particularly due to insufficient water vapor release in the black matrix, which requires an additional baking process and affects the overall performance.

Innovation Solution

The black matrix and grating are formed on a side of the first substrate facing away from the second substrate, eliminating the need for an additional baking process and improving both production capacity and display effect by integrating them on the light exit side of the 3D display device.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the black matrix is formed inside the display panel, then it provides shielding function, but it requires additional baking process and reduces production capacity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveshielding functionVSAvoidproduction capacity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The black matrix is extracted from the internal structure and moved to the external surface of the first substrate. This relocation eliminates the need for additional baking processes while maintaining the shielding function, thereby improving production capacity without sacrificing reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Manufacturing precision

If the black matrix and grating are formed separately, then each component can be optimized independently, but the process complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomponent optimizationVSAvoidprocess complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The black matrix and grating are merged into a single integrated structure formed on the surface of the first substrate. This combination allows both components to be optimized together while reducing process complexity, as they can be fabricated in a single step rather than separately

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Reliability

If the black matrix is formed on the light exit side, then water vapor release is improved, but the positioning precision must be maintained

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewater vapor releaseVSAvoidpositioning precision
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The black matrix is positioned on the external surface of the first substrate, utilizing the third dimension (surface placement) rather than internal positioning. This dimensional change improves water vapor release while maintaining positioning precision through accurate surface placement

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)
