Transparent Display Panel Light-Guiding Component Brightness Uniformity
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing transparent display devices suffer from non-uniform display brightness due to the reduction in overall brightness when attempting to make subpixels transparent for natural light penetration, leading to poor display performance.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating a light-guiding component on the light-emitting side of the transparent display panel to redirect and transmit light from light-emitting regions to transparent regions, utilizing a material with a higher refractive index and featuring light-redirecting elements such as protuberances or concaves to enhance light distribution and uniformity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If a part of a subpixel or some subpixels are configured to form a transparent region for natural light penetration, then transparency is improved, but overall brightness decreases and display uniformity deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
A light-guiding component is introduced as an intermediary element between the light-emitting region and transparent region. This component redirects light from the light-emitting region into the transparent region, mediating the trade-off between transparency and brightness by allowing natural light penetration while supplementing it with redirected emitted light to maintain display uniformity and overall brightness
2Ease of manufacture
If a part of a subpixel or some subpixels are configured to form a transparent region, then transparency is improved, but display uniformity deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The light-guiding component acts as a mediator that redistributes light from the light-emitting region into the transparent region, thereby compensating for the brightness difference between these regions and achieving uniform display appearance across the entire display area
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This solution improves display uniformity and performance by directing light from light-emitting regions to transparent regions, maintaining brightness and transparency, thus addressing the issue of non-uniform brightness in existing transparent display devices.
Implementation Method 1
the at least one light-guiding component is configured to transmit a part of light emitted from the light-emitting regions to the transparent regions
Implementation Method 2
the non-light-emitting surface of the second part of the light-guiding component is provided with a plurality of light-redirecting elements

AI summary
Embodiments of this disclosure provide a transparent display panel and a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device. The transparent display panel comprises a plurality of light-emitting regions and a plurality of transparent regions. The transparent display panel further comprises at least one light-guiding component disposed on a light-emitting side of the transparent display panel, wherein the at least one light-guiding component is configured to transmit a part of light emitted from the light-emitting regions to the transparent regions. In the transparent display panel, a light-guiding component is used to transmit the light emitted by the light-emitting subpixels in the light-emitting regions to the transparent regions, and a plurality of light-redirecting members formed on a surface of the light-guiding component are used to change the direction of light transmitted to the transparent regions and to emit the light from the light-emitting side of the transparent regions. As a result, display uniformity of the whole transparent display panel is improved, and a better display performance can be achieved.
