This application claims the priority benefit of China application serial no. 202321151915.3, filed on May 15, 2023. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.


BACKGROUND
Technical Field

The disclosure relates to a light emitting module and an optical device, and in particular to a backlight module and a display device.


Description of Related Art

The liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal display panel. Since the liquid crystal display panel itself does not have the ability to emit light, the liquid crystal display panel must rely on a backlight module to provide a surface light source to the liquid crystal display panel, so that the user can watch an image displayed on the liquid crystal display panel. In the prior art, the backlight module mainly uses a light emitting diode as the surface light source, but the optical effects are limited. At present, after light rays pass through a lower diffuser sheet, the light rays are scattered toward multiple directions. Since the role of the diffuser sheet is to provide a uniform light source, the viewing angle is widened and the light radiation area is increased, thereby reducing the light intensity per unit area, that is, reducing the luminance. Therefore, in order to increase the light intensity of the backlight module, a prism sheet is required to converge the scattered light to a direct perpendicular to the panel again.


However, with such a module structure, the light rays can only be controlled to emit light within a range of 50 degrees of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the viewing angle. If the backlight module is used with the lower diffuser sheet, the viewing angles in the horizontal and vertical directions will have larger full width at half maximum, that is, wider viewing angles. Therefore, when a display needs to be applied with higher privacy and anti-peeping requirements, the backlight module must provide a narrower viewing angle in order to meet the requirements of a product. Therefore, how to use an optical film to adjust the full width at half maximum of the viewing angle, so as to improve the collimation of the backlight module and increase the luminance gain, so that the viewing angle of the module can meet the requirements of the end product is the main issue to be handled in the disclosure.


The information disclosed in this Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the described technology and therefore it may contain information that does not form the prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. Further, the information disclosed in the Background section does not mean that one or more problems to be resolved by one or more embodiments of the invention was acknowledged by a person of ordinary skill in the art.

In this embodiment, the backlight module 100 includes a light guide element 110, a light source 120, a first optical element 130, and a second optical element 140. The light guide element 110 has a light incident surface S1 and a light exit surface S2 perpendicular to each other, and the light source 120 is disposed on the light incident surface S1 of the light guide element 110. The light guide element 110 is, for example, a light guide plate, the shape thereof may be flat or wedge-shaped, and the disclosure is not limited thereto. In addition, the light guide element 110 may have an optical microstructure (not shown in the drawing), wherein the optical microstructure is at least disposed on at least one of the light exit surface S2 of the light guide element 110 and a bottom surface (not labelled in the drawing) opposite to the light exit surface S2, wherein the optical microstructure may be formed through laser dotting, rolling, injection, etc., wherein the optical microstructure may be dotted in the form of partial dots or through grooves to increase the optical effects, the optical microstructure may be a concave structure or a convex structure, and the disclosure is not limited thereto.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a first optical element and a second optical element according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 at the same time, wherein FIG. 3 omits to show the light guide element 110 and the light source 120. The first optical element 130 is disposed on a side of the light exit surface S2. The first optical element 130 includes multiple first prism structures 132 arranged along a first direction D1 and extending along a second direction D2. Each of the first prism structures 132 includes a first base angle A1 and a second base angle A2 away from the light incident surface S1 relative to the first base angle A1, and the angle of the first base angle A1 is different from the angle of the second base angle A2. Specifically, the first base angle A1 is located between the light incident surface S1 and the second base angle A2. The first direction D1 is perpendicular to the second direction D2. In other words, the first prism structures 132 are asymmetrical prism structures, so the first optical element 130 is an asymmetrical prism sheet. In this embodiment, the average pitch of the first prism structure 132 is greater than 0 μm and less than or equal to 200 μm.


The second optical element 140 is disposed on a side of the light exit surface S2, and the first optical element 130 is located between the light guide element 110 and the second optical element 140. The second optical element 140 includes multiple second prism structures 142 arranged along the first direction D1 and extending along the second direction D2. Each of the second prism structures 142 includes a third base angle A3 and a fourth base angle A4 away from the light incident surface S1 relative to the third base angle A3, and the angle of the third base angle A3 is different from the angle of the fourth base angle A4. Specifically, the third base angle A3 is located between the light incident surface S1 and the fourth base angle A4. In other words, the second prism structures 142 are asymmetrical structures, so the second optical element 140 is an asymmetrical prism sheet. In this embodiment, the average pitch of the second prism structure 142 is greater than 0 μm and less than or equal to 200 μm.


In this embodiment, an included angle between the first direction D1 and a normal vector of the light incident surface S1 is equal to 0 degrees. However, in different embodiments, the included angle between the first direction D1 and the normal vector of the light incident surface S1 may be designed to be greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 50 degrees, so as to prevent the first prism structures 132 of the first optical element 130 and the second prism structures 142 of the second optical elements 140 from interacting with other optical elements in the backlight module 100 to generate interference fringes, wherein an included angle between the first prism structure 132 and the normal vector of the light incident surface S1 may be the same as an included angle between the second prism structure 142 and the normal vector of the light incident surface S1. In another embodiment, the included angle between the first prism structure 132 and the normal vector of the light incident surface S1 may be different from the included angle between the second prism structure 142 and the normal vector of the light incident surface S1.


In this embodiment, the optical effects are preferred when a refractive index N1 of the forming material of the first prism structure 132 is less than a refractive index N2 of the forming material of the second prism structure 142. In addition, in this embodiment, the haze of at least one of the first optical element 130 and the second optical element 140 is greater than 0% and less than or equal to 90%. Specifically, diffusion particles may be disposed in the first prism structure 132 of the first optical element 130 and/or the second prism structure 142 of the second optical element 140, and/or a diffusion layer 134/144 may be disposed on a side away from the first prism structure 132 and/or the second prism structure 142. In this embodiment, the diffusion layer 134/144 has a diffusion particle P. In other embodiments, the diffusion layer 134/144 may not have a diffusion particle, but have a roughened surface. In other embodiments, the diffusion layer 134/144 may have both a diffusion particle and a roughened surface, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In this embodiment, the first prism structure 132 is located on a side of the first optical element 130 away from the light guide element 110, and the second prism structure 142 is located on a side of the second optical element 140 away from the light guide element 110. However, in different embodiments, the first prism structure 132 may be located on a side of the first optical element 130 facing the light guide element 110, as shown in FIG. 4, and the disclosure is not limited thereto.


In detail, in this embodiment, the angle of the first base angle A1 of the first prism structure 132 is less than the angle of the third base angle A3 of the second prism structure 142. In addition, the angle of the first base angle A1 of the first prism structure 132 is greater than the angle of the second base angle A2, and/or the angle of the third base angle A3 of the second prism structure 142 is greater than the angle of the fourth base angle A4. However, in different embodiments, the angle of the first base angle A1 of the first prism structure 132 may also be designed to be less than the angle of the second base angle A2, and/or the angle of the third base angle A3 of the second prism structure 142 may also be designed to be less than the angle of the fourth base angle A4, as shown in FIG. 5.


In this way, through the optical design of the first optical element 130 with an asymmetrical prism and the second optical element 140 with an asymmetrical prism, the luminance of the backlight module 100 can be effectively improved and the backlight module 100 can have preferable optical effects. For example, in an embodiment, when the angles of the first base angle A1 and the second base angle A2 of the first prism structures 132 in the first optical element 130 are respectively 50 degrees and 40 degrees, and the angles of the third base angle A3 and the fourth base angle A4 of the second prism structures 142 in the second optical element 140 are respectively 70 degrees and 50 degrees, the luminance gain of the backlight module 100 can reach 1.9 times that of the prior art. In addition, in this embodiment, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of light output from the backlight module 100 perpendicular to the light incident surface S1 is less than 25 degrees. For example, in the foregoing embodiment, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of a horizontal viewing angle of the backlight module 100 is 40 degrees, which is close to that of the prior art. However, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of a vertical viewing angle is reduced to 19 degrees, thereby limiting the viewing angle in one dimension (that is, the vertical direction) to be applied in an anti-peeping display and a vehicle display. The light efficacy of the formed backlight module 100 can also be greatly improved, the luminance gain is increased by more than 90% compared with the prior art, and the energy consumption of the display device can be reduced. The vertical viewing angle may be defined as the viewing angle perpendicular to the light incident surface S1 in this embodiment, and the horizontal viewing angle may be defined as the viewing angle parallel to the light incident surface S1 and the light exit surface S2 in this embodiment.
