This application claims a priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201410652610.X filed on Nov. 17, 2014, the disclosure of which is incorporated in its entirety by reference herein.
The present disclosure relates to the field of organic electroluminescence technology, in particular to a blue light polarization film and its manufacturing method, as well as a blue backlight and a liquid crystal display device.
During the developing process of an organic electroluminescence, since a blue light material is relative scarce, how to realize blue light emission has become a critical issue. If the blue light emission is realized, then it may further constitute tri-phosphor emission with green and red light emission, thereby obtain white light emission.
In a related art, a luminescent material needs to be added into an inorganic material or a polymer so as to achieve a certain uniform fluorescence intensity. However, such method may increase difficulties in synthesizing a luminescent material and controlling a uniformity of a luminescent film. In addition, such method may consume much more luminescent materials to achieve a same fluorescence intensity at cost.
An object of the present disclosure is to provide a blue light polarization film and its manufacturing method, as well as a blue backlight.
In an aspect, the present disclosure provides in embodiments a blue light polarization film, comprising a plurality of magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite layers and tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum layers deposited alternately.
Alternatively, the multi-layered film comprises4 layers to 10 layers.
Alternatively, a thickness of each magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite layer is 10 nm to 20 nm; and a thickness of each tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum layer is 10 nm to 20 nm.
Alternatively, a maximum value for a fluorescence emission spectrum is 470 nm to 490 nm.
Alternatively, the blue light polarization film is obtained by: repeating the step of immersing a base into a magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite solution at a concentration of 10 g/L to 20 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying, and immersing the base into a tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum solution at a concentration of 3 g/L to 10 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying.
In another aspect, the present disclosure provides in embodiments a method for manufacturing a blue light polarization film, including:
repeating the step of immersing a base into a magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite solution at a concentration of 10 g/L to 20 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying, and immersing the base into a tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum solution at a concentration of 3 g/L to 10 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying, so as to obtain a multi-layered film.
Alternatively, the two immersing steps are repeated twice to five times.
In yet another aspect, the present disclosure provides in embodiments a blue backlight, including any one of the above blue light polarization films.
In still yet another aspect, the present disclosure provides in embodiments a liquid crystal display device, including: an upper polarizer, a color filter substrate, a liquid crystal layer, an array substrate, a lower polarizer and a backlight, wherein the backlight is the above blue backlight.
According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a maximum value for a fluorescence emission spectrum of the blue light polarization film is 470 nm to 490 nm, fallen into a blue region. The blue light polarization film is of a fluorescence anisotropic value of 0.1 to 0.2, has a polarization property, and may be used as a liquid crystal display device. Therefore, the blue light polarization film not only has a luminous property, but also has a polarization property, thereby improves disadvantages of conventional liquid crystal display device, which requires both a polarizer at a backlight side and a luminous material in the backlight.
The blue light polarization film is of a multi-layered film formed by depositing magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite and tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum alternately. The multi-layered film formed by depositing alternately is uniform and compact. Because it may accurately control each single-layer film to be of a certain thickness, thereby control a certain thickness of the alternately-deposited multi-layered film. Further, it may control the luminescent intensity of such multi-layered film in an accurate manner by controlling the number of deposited layers. For the method of alternately depositing according to the present disclosure, the blue light material (formed by tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum film) is of a low concentration, and the magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite may isolate two layers of the blue light film, thereby avoid the blue light material from flurescence quenching. Therefore, the more layers of the multi-layered film are, the more blue light material is deposited, and the higher of the blue light intensity are.
Alternatively, the multi-layered film comprises 4 layers to 10 layers; a thickness of each magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite layer is 10 nm to 20 nm; and a thickness of each tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum layer is 10 nm to 20 nm.
Alternatively, a maximum value for a fluorescence emission spectrum of the blue light polarization film is 470 nm to 490 nm, fallen into a blue light region.
Alternatively, the blue light polarization film is obtained by: repeating the step of immersing a base into a magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite solution at a concentration of 10 g/L to 20 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying, and immersing the base into a tri(8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoacid) aluminum solution at a concentration of 3 g/L to 10 g/L for 10 min to 15 min followed by taking out and blow-drying.
In another aspect, the present disclosure further discloses in embodiments a blue backlight, including any one of the above blue light polarization films.
In still another aspect, the present disclosure provides in embodiments a liquid crystal display device, including an upper polarizer, a color filter substrate, a liquid crystal layer, an array substrate, a lower polarizer and a backlight, wherein the backlight is the above blue backlight.

After transferred to a three-necked bottle, the resultant solution was stirred in a protection of nitrogen gas and titrated to be at a pH value of 8.0 with 0.5 mol/L NaOH. The mixed solution was then transferred into a reaction kettle and subjected to a reaction for 48 hours in an oven at 80° C. The target product of Mg2Al(OH)6NO3LDH was obtained after centrifuging, washing and drying the reaction product.
1 g Mg2Al(OH)6NO3LDH was added into 100 mL of formamide followed by 16 hours stirring, so as to obtain a LDH-formamide layer-stripping solution, carrying positive charges.
