Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If blue light chip with yellow phosphor powder is used to generate white light, then white light can be obtained, but the blue light intensity at 460 nm wavelength is harmful to human eyes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the wavelength parameter of blue light from 460 nm (harmful) to 450-470 nm range excluding 460 nm by using quantum dot materials with specific size distributions. This parameter change eliminates the harmful effect while maintaining white light output.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses composite quantum dot materials comprising multiple types of quantum dots with different size distributions to generate blue light at different wavelengths within the 450-470 nm range, avoiding the harmful 460 nm wavelength while maintaining overall white light generation.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If quantum dot film with multiple quantum dot materials is used, then blue light at harmful 460 nm wavelength can be eliminated, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple types of quantum dot materials into a single quantum dot film layer that can be applied directly to the light-emitting surface of the illuminant. This combining approach eliminates harmful blue light while avoiding the need for multiple separate layers or complex multi-layer structures.
Solution Approach 2:
The quantum dot film serves multiple functions simultaneously: it converts ultraviolet light to visible light, generates blue light at safe wavelengths, and eliminates harmful 460 nm blue light all in a single component, reducing overall device complexity.
