DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The implementations of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Implementations may be implemented in multiple different forms. Those of ordinary skills in the art may easily understand such a fact that implementations and contents may be transformed into various forms without departing from the purpose and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be explained as being limited to contents described in following implementation modes only. The implementations in the present disclosure and features in the implementations may be combined randomly with each other without conflict. In order to keep following description of the implementations of the present disclosure clear and concise, detailed descriptions about part of known functions and known components are omitted in the present disclosure. The drawings of the implementations of the present disclosure only involve structures involved in the implementations of the present disclosure, and other structures may refer to usual designs.
Scales of the drawings in the present disclosure may be used as a reference in the actual process, but are not limited thereto. For example, a thickness and a pitch of each film layer, and a width and a pitch of each signal line may be adjusted according to an actual situation. The drawings described in the present disclosure are only schematic diagrams of structures, and one mode of the present disclosure is not limited to shapes or numerical values or the like shown in the drawings.
Ordinal numerals such as “first”, “second”, and “third” in the specification are set to avoid confusion of constituent elements, but not to set a limit in quantity.
In the specification, for convenience, wordings indicating orientation or positional relationships, such as “middle”, “upper”, “lower”, “front”, “back”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “top”, “bottom”, “inside”, and “outside”, are used for illustrating positional relationships between constituent elements with reference to the drawings, and are merely for facilitating the description of the specification and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that a referred apparatus or element must have a particular orientation and be constructed and operated in the particular orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present disclosure. The positional relationships between the constituent elements may be changed as appropriate according to a direction according to which each constituent element is described. Therefore, appropriate replacements may be made according to situations without being limited to the wordings described in the specification.
In the specification, unless otherwise specified and defined explicitly, terms “mount”, “mutually connect”, and “connect” should be understood in a broad sense. For example, a connection may be a fixed connection, or a detachable connection, or an integrated connection. It may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. It may be a direct mutual connection, or an indirect connection through middleware, or internal communication between two components. Those of ordinary skill in the art may understand specific meanings of these terms in the present disclosure according to specific situations.
In the specification, “electrical connection” includes a case that constituent elements are connected together through an element with a certain electrical effect. The “element with the certain electrical effect” is not particularly limited as long as electrical signals may be sent and received between the connected constituent elements. Examples of the “element having some electrical function” not only include an electrode and a wiring, but also a switch element such as a transistor, a resistor, an inductor, a capacitor, another element having one or more functions, and the like.
In the specification, “parallel” refers to a state in which an angle formed by two straight lines is −10° or more and 10° or less, and thus may include a state in which the angle is −5° or more and 5° or less. In addition, “perpendicular” refers to a state in which an angle formed by two straight lines is above 80 degrees and below 100 degrees, and thus may include a state in which the angle is above 85 degrees and below 95 degrees.
In the specification, a “film” and a “layer” are interchangeable. For example, a “conductive layer” may be replaced with a “conductive film” sometimes. Similarly, an “insulating film” may be replaced with an “insulation layer” sometimes.
Triangle, rectangle, trapezoid, pentagon and hexagon in this specification are not strictly defined, and they may be approximate triangle, rectangle, trapezoid, pentagon or hexagon, etc. There may be some small deformation caused by tolerance, and there may be guide angle, arc edge and deformation, etc.
In the present disclosure, “about” refers to that a boundary is defined not so strictly and numerical values within process and measurement error ranges are allowed.
In the present disclosure, a “thickness” is a dimension of a film layer in a direction perpendicular to a substrate.
The “transmittance” in the present disclosure refers to an ability of light to pass through a medium, and is a percentage of the luminous flux passing through a transparent or translucent body to its incident luminous flux.
In mobile terminals such as mobile phones, notebook computers and automobile glass, as well as wireless applications such as microsatellites, intelligent buildings, intelligent windows, smart wearable devices and on-board communication devices, the various microwave communication devices that are miniaturized and thin-filmed, such as transmission lines, waveguides and antennas, have become a development trend. The thin-filmed traditional large-size microwave device facilitates the conformal structure design and reduces the weight and cost of communication systems.
Especially in recent years, mobile terminals (such as mobile phones) are developing towards ultra-thin, full-screen, and compatible with a series of communication functions, such as the fifth generation mobile communication technology (5G)/fourth generation mobile communication technology (4G)/third generation mobile communication technology (3G)/second generation mobile communication technology (2G), Wireless Fidelity (WIFI), such as WIFI), Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth, Global Positioning System (GPS), China BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), wireless charging and the like, therefore, the design space reserved for antenna is extremely limited. Moreover, the existing antenna structure of mobile terminals cannot meet the requirements of simultaneously covering multiple frequency bands used for 5G millimeter waves. In addition, the propagation loss of 5G millimeter wave is large. In order to ensure the antenna gain, it is necessary to arrange the antenna, which requires more space to arrange the antenna. These contradictions objectively promote the demand of on-screen antenna. By designing on-screen antenna with good concealment performance, the above-mentioned shortage of design space can be alleviated. At present, transparent oxide conductive materials, such as Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), or multi-layer film materials of metal and conductive oxide, or metal mesh films, are commonly used to achieve transparent antenna design.
In related technologies, the on-screen antenna of the mobile terminal is mainly constructed on the flexible film, and then the flexible film is attached to the screen of the mobile terminal. Since this film attachment process cannot achieve accurate alignment in the semiconductor process, there is an obvious phenomenon that the antenna shields various pixels in the screen, which is easy to produce shielded dark lines and Moire Fringes. In addition, since the metal wires constituting the antenna in the antenna region will block a portion of the incident light, so that the transmittances of the antenna region and the non-antenna region on the screen are not consistent. In order to make the transmittance of the non-antenna region consistent with that of the antenna region as much as possible and passivate the visual effect of inconsistent transmittance, it is usually necessary to construct a grid pattern structure similar to that of the antenna region in the non-antenna region of the screen, so that the transmittance of the whole screen is reduced by 5% to 20%. If a method in which a touch panel (TP) is integrated on a screen encapsulation layer (E. G. OLED encapsulation layer) is directly adopted, although precise alignment in semiconductor technology can be adopted, the radiation efficiency is only about 2.8% according to the radiation theory of microstrip antenna patch due to a fact that the encapsulation layer is only 10 microns away from the metal cathode in the screen. Since the radiation efficiency is too low, it is basically infeasible to directly use semiconductor lithography alignment technology to manufacture antennas.

In the structure shown in FIG. 1d, the orthographic projection of the second ends of a portion of the second conductive element 132 on the dielectric layer 11 is within the range of the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 11; the orthographic projection of the second ends of the other portion of the second conductive element 132 on the dielectric layer 11 does not fall within the range of the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 11, i.e. the orthographic projection of the other portion of the second conductive element 132 on the dielectric layer 11 is not overlapped with the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 11 in FIG. 1d.
In an exemplary implementation, a dielectric is provided in the slot 111 and the dielectric in the slot 111 is formed by the same process as the dielectric layer 12. In the implementation of the present disclosure, the formation of the dielectric in the slot 111 and the dielectric layer 12 by the same process can simplify the technological process and reduce the cost of manufacturing the antenna. In the implementation of the present disclosure, the dielectric in the slot 111 is not limited to being the same as the dielectric of the dielectric layer 12, and a dielectric different from the dielectric layer 12 may be employed, for example, the dielectric constant in the slot 111 may be greater than the dielectric constant of the dielectric layer 12.

In an exemplary implementation, as shown in FIG. 1a, FIG. 1c, FIG. 2a-FIG. 2e, the first conductive element 131 includes a first side A1 and a second side A2 disposed oppositely, and a third side A3 and a fourth side A4 disposed oppositely, the second conductive element 132 being located at the first side A1 or the second side A2 of the first conductive element 131; the plurality of second conductive elements 132 are arranged along the second direction (direction Y).
In an exemplary implementation, the first conductive element 131 may adopt a grid structure as illustrated in FIG. 1a; or, as shown in FIG. 1c, the first conductive element 131 may be a non-grid structure, for example, the first conductive element 131 may be a strip structure.
In an exemplary implementation, as shown in FIG. 2a-FIG. 2e, the second conductive element 132 includes a first sub-conductive element 1321 and a second sub-conductive element 1322, wherein the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the second sub-conductive element 1322 are alternately arranged along the second direction (direction Y);
- the plurality of first sub-conductive elements 1321 may be a plurality of first conductive lines a1 extending along the first direction (direction X), and the plurality of first conductive lines a1 are arranged along the second direction (direction Y);
- the plurality of second sub-conductive elements 1322 may be a plurality of second conductive lines a2 extending along the first direction (direction X) and arranged along the second direction (direction Y);
- the length of the first sub-conductive element 1321 along the first direction (direction X) is greater than the length of the second sub-conductive element 1322 along the first direction (direction X), an orthographic projection of the second ends of the first sub-conductive elements 1321 on the dielectric layer 12 is within the range of the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 12, and an orthographic projection of the second ends of the second sub-conductive elements 1322 on the dielectric layer 111 is not overlapped with the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 12.
In an exemplary implementation, the first conductive line a and the second conductive line a2 are of a hollow structure or a solid structure, i.e. the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the second sub-conductive element 1322 are of a hollow structure or a solid structure.
In an exemplary implementation, the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the second sub-conductive element 1322 are alternately arranged along the second direction (direction Y), and as shown in FIG. 2c, one first conductive line a1 (i.e., the first sub-conductive element 1321) and one second conductive line a2 (i.e., the second sub-conductive element 1322) are alternately arranged along the second direction (direction Y). In the implementation of the present disclosure, not only one first sub-conductive element 1321 and one second sub-conductive element 1322 are alternately disposed along the second direction Y, but also two first sub-conductive elements 1321 and two second sub-conductive elements 1322 may be alternately disposed in the second direction (direction Y) as shown in FIG. 2e; alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2a, FIG. 2b, and FIG. 2d, in a comb-shaped conductive structure 130, one or more first sub-conductive elements 1321 and one or more second sub-conductive elements 1322 are alternately disposed along the second direction (direction Y).
In an exemplary implementation, the conductive structure 130 of the comb structure is an artificial surface plasmon structure. In an exemplary implementation, the artificial surface plasmon structure can be a conductive structure of an ultra-thin comb structure, the first conductive structure 11 acts as a metallic ground, the conductive structure of ultra-thin comb structure has only one layer of metal film. To tightly bind the electromagnetic energy, in many application scenarios, it is required that the metallic ground (the first conductive structure 11) is close to the conductive structure of the comb structure, a large portion of the electromagnetic energy is bound between the metallic ground (the first conductive structure 11) and the conductive structure of the comb structure. Similar to microstrip transmission lines, the small distance between the metallic ground and the conductive structure of the comb structure brings a problem of low radiation efficiency of the antenna, implementations of the present disclosure are provided with slots 111 on the first conductive layer 11, such that the orthographic projection of the second ends of at least a portion of the second conductive elements 132 on the dielectric layer 12 is within the range of the orthographic projection of the slot 111 on the dielectric layer 11, the electromagnetic wave energy projected on the comb teeth in the slot can be transmitted from the slot without being bound between the metal ground and the conductive structure of the comb structure, thus improving the radiation efficiency of the antenna.
In an exemplary implementation, the second conductive layer 13 is a transparent conductive layer which can increase transparency, and the application of the antenna in the display device can reduce the occlusion of the screen in the display device and increase the light transmittance.
In an exemplary implementation, each conductive structure of the comb structure includes at least one positive radiation field and at least one negative radiation field, the positive radiation field of the antenna corresponds to a region of the first sub-conductive element 1321, the negative radiation field of the antenna corresponds to a region of the second sub-conductive element 1322; or, the negative radiation field of the antenna corresponds to the region of the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the positive radiation field of the antenna corresponds to the region of the second sub-conductive element 1322.
In implementations of the present disclosure, since the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the second sub-conductive element 1322 are alternately disposed, in the traveling distance of the electromagnetic wave along the conductive structure of comb structure, a positive radiation field and a negative radiation field are periodically formed in the arrangement direction of the second conductive element 132. If both the positive radiation field and the negative radiation field are radiated into the free space through the slot, the total radiation field of the far field may be balanced in positive and negative, which reduces the radiation efficiency to a certain extent. Implementations of the present disclosure adopts the alternate arrangement of first sub-conductive elements 1321 (i.e. long teeth of the comb structure) and second sub-conductive elements 1322 (i.e. short teeth of the comb structure), and only the projection of the second ends of the first sub-conductive elements 1321 fall into the slot 111, while the projection of the second ends of the second sub-conductive elements 1322 do not fall into the slot 111. When designing the conductive structure of the comb structure in the antenna, two kinds of radiation fields in different directions (including positive radiation field and negative radiation field) are respectively aligned to the region corresponding to the first sub-conductive element 1321 and the region corresponding to the second sub-conductive element 1322. Since the radiation ability of the long and short teeth in the slot are different, coherence enhancement will be formed in the far field instead of coherence subtraction, thus further enhancing the radiation efficiency of the antenna. As shown in FIG. 3, C1 is a graph showing the relationship between the radiation efficiency and frequency of the antenna in which the slot is provided and the first sub-conductive elements 1321 and the second sub-conductive elements 1321 and 1322 are alternately arranged as shown in FIG. 2a-FIG. 2e, C2 is a graph showing the relationship between the radiation efficiency and frequency of the antenna in which the slot is provided as shown in FIG. 1a, and C3 is a graph showing the relationship between the radiation efficiency and frequency of the antenna in which the slot is not provided. As can be seen from FIG. 3, in the antenna structure at a frequency of 28 GHz, the radiation efficiency of the antenna provided with the slot (corresponding to graph C2) is increased by about 1.6 times compared with the antenna without slots (corresponding to graph C3); compared with the antenna without the slot (corresponding to graph C3), the radiation efficiency of the antenna provided with the slot and alternated long and short teeth (corresponding to C1) is increased by more than 10 times.
In implementations of the present disclosure, the radiation efficiency of the antenna refers to the ratio of the power delivered to the antenna to the power radiated by the antenna.
In an exemplary implementation, in the case where the conductive structure of the comb structure adopts an artificial surface plasmon structure, the conductive structure 130 has a size of 1 mm to 2 mm along the arrangement direction of the plurality of second conductive elements 132 (the direction Y in FIG. 2a), and the conductive structure 130 has a size of 1 mm to 2 mm along an extension direction of the second conductive elements (the direction X in FIG. 2a). For example, the size of the antenna may be 1.5 mm*1.5 mm, i.e. the conductive structure 130 has a size of 1.5 mm along the arrangement direction of the plurality of second conductive elements 132 (the direction Y in FIG. 2a), the conductive structure 130 has a size of 1.5 mm along the extension direction of the second conductive elements (the direction X in FIG. 2a). The antenna of such size has an operation frequency of about 28 GHz and a wavelength of an electromagnetic wave transmitted or received is 10 mm to 12 mm.
In implementations of the present disclosure, in each conductive structure 130 of the comb structure, the intensity of the electromagnetic wave decays exponentially along a pointing direction of the comb teeth (direction X in FIG. 2a) to form an evanescent wave, while the electromagnetic wave may propagates along an arrangement direction of the comb teeth (direction Y in FIG. 2a) to form a surface plasma wave (which is a kind of electromagnetic surface wave) in which the electromagnetic wave energy is bound at the tip of the comb teeth. The vector of surface plasmon wave propagating in direction Y is much larger than that in vacuum. By using this property, the size of the antenna and the device carrying the antenna can be compressed, thus realizing the fabrication of a miniaturized antenna and a miniaturized device carrying the antenna. Artificial surface plasmon structure can reduce the size of antenna by means of its own advantages. Although common metal structure can be used as antenna, the size of common metal antenna is relatively large. On the screen of mobile phones or other small electronic devices, it is necessary to minimize the size of antennas, so as to reduce the impact of antennas on display performance and touch layer performance. For example, the size of patch antenna in a frequency of 28 GHz is generally about 3 mm×3 mm, while the size of surface plasmon structure antenna can be compressed to about 1.5 mm×1.5 mm, which greatly reduces the antenna size, thus saving the space of electronic devices provided with antennas and reducing the size of electronic devices provided with antennas as much as possible.
