In the above situation, the first material layer may not be in direct contact with the second material layer.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an exemplary embodiment of a display device, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. The display device 100 comprises a backlight plate 110, a first panel 120 and a second panel 130. In one embodiment, the display device 100 may be flexible. In another embodiment, the first panel 120 or the second panel 130 comprises a 3D glass. In this case, the 3D glass may be a curved glass having one or more curvatures. The disclosure is not limit the application field of the display device 100. In one embodiment, the display device 100 is applied in personal digital assistant (PDA), cellular phone, digital camera, television, global positioning system (GPS), car display, avionics display, digital photo frame, notebook computer or personal computer, or other suitable applications.

The backlight plate 110 comprises a plurality of luminescent elements. In the disclosure, the kind of luminescent elements is not limited. In one embodiment, the luminescent elements may use inorganic materials, such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), micro LEDs, mini LEDs. Detailed description, LED chip size may be defined as the existing chip about 200 to 300 microns, LED chip size of small pitch display chip may be about 150 microns, and LED chip size of mini LED may be about 50 to 60 microns, and mini LED may be regarded as micro LED predecessor, and LED chip size of micro LED may be only 15 microns.

In other embodiment, the luminescent elements may use organic materials, such as Organic Light-Emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs can make the backlight plate thinner and can be bent at will. In this embodiment, the luminescent elements are divided into light emission modules 111˜119. Each of the light emission modules 111˜119 comprises nine luminescent elements, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the number of luminescent elements of one of the light emission modules 111˜119 is the same as or different from the number of luminescent elements of another of the light emission modules 111˜119. In this embodiment, each light emission module serves as a light emission zone.

In the disclosure, the arranged sequence of the luminescent elements is not limited. In this embodiment, the arrangements of the luminescent elements of one of the light emission modules 111˜119 are the same, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiment, the arrangement of the luminescent elements of one of the light emission modules 111˜119 is different from the arrangement of the luminescent elements of another of the light emission modules 111˜119. In this embodiment, the backlight plate 110 controls the luminescent elements of the light emission modules 111˜119 according to a local dimming technology. Therefore, each light emission module is individually activated by the backlight plate. For example, when the luminescent elements of the first light emission module 111 are activated, at least one of the luminescent elements of the light emission modules 112˜119 are deactivated. Since the luminescent elements of a portion of the light emission modules are activated, the power consumption of the backlight plate 110 can be reduced or the contrast ration of the backlight plate 110 is increased. In other embodiments, when the luminescent elements of the first light emission module 111 are activated, the luminescent elements in at least one of the light emission modules 112˜119 are activated. In this case, the brightness of the second light emission module 112 is lower than the brightness of the first light emission module 111. In some embodiments, the brightness of the second light emission module 112 is the same as the brightness of the first light emission module 111. In one embodiment, the number of activated luminescent elements in the second light emission module 112 is less than the number of activated luminescent elements in the first light emission module 111.

Additionally, the brightness of each of the light emission modules 111˜119 is individually controlled. For example, the luminescent elements of the first light emission module 111 are activated according to a driving signal, such as a current signal. In this case, the brightness of the luminescent elements in the first light emission module 111 is controlled by the amplitude or the duty cycle of the driving signal. In one embodiment, the driving signal is a current signal or a voltage signal, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. For brevity, the light emitted from the first light emission module 111 is referred to as specific light LT₁.

As shown in FIG. 1, the first pane 120 is disposed on the backlight plate 110 and comprises a plurality of first pixels 121. In one embodiment, the shape of the first panel 120 may be rectangular, polygonal, curve, or other suitable shapes, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the shape of the first panel 120 is not rectangular. In some embodiments, the first panel 120 is flexible, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, each of the first pixels corresponds to a light emission module. in other embodiments, many first pixels correspond to one light emission module. For example, the region 140 of the first panel 120 comprises four first pixels corresponding to the first light emission module 111, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Therefore, when the specific light LT₁ is emitted from the first light emission module 111, the specific light LT₁ passes through the four first pixels in the region 140. In other embodiments, the transmittance of the light through the first pixels of the region 140 is higher than the transmittance of the light through the other first pixels when the specific light LT₁ passes through the first pixels of the region 140 and the other first pixels disposed out of the region 140. In this embodiment, each of the four first pixels in the region 140 is capable of controlling the transmittance of the light passing through it. When the specific light LT₁ passes through the four first pixels in the region 140, the four first pixels in the region 140 form a light emission module. For brevity, the light passing through the first pixels of the region 140 is referred to as light LT₂.

In one embodiment, the first panel 120 comprises a first data driver 122 and a first scan driver 123. The first scan driver 123 provides a plurality of scan signals to turn on the corresponding first pixels. The first data driver 122 provides a plurality of data signals. Each data signal controls the transmittance of the light passing through the corresponding first pixels. For example, the transmittance of the light passing through the first pixels of the region 140 is controlled by controlling the brightness of the light LT₂ passing through the first pixels of the region 140. In the disclosure, the kind of first panel 120 is not limited. In one embodiment, the first panel 120 may be a liquid crystal display (LCD), but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Any display panel can serve as the first panel 120, as long as the display panel needs a light source provided by a backlight plate.

In this embodiment, the colors of the lights passing through the first pixels 121 are the same as the color of the lights emitted from the backlight plate 110. The color of the light emitted from the backlight plate 110 is white. Since the first panel 120 is utilized to regulate the transmittances of the lights passing through the first pixels 121, the first panel 120 does not need a color filter. In this embodiment, the number of first pixels 121 is not limited. In one embodiment, the number of light emission zones of the backlight plate 110 is less than or equal to the number of first pixels of the first panel 120. In other words, the resolution of the backlight plate 110 in pixels per inch (PPI) is less than or equal to the resolution of the first panel 120 in pixels per inch.

The second panel 130 is disposed on the first panel 120 and comprises a plurality of second pixels 131. In one embodiment, the shape of the second panel 130 may be rectangular, polygonal, curve, or other suitable shapes, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the shape of the second panel 130 is not rectangular. Additionally, the second panel 130 is flexible, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, one of the second pixels 131 corresponds to one of the first pixels 121. In another embodiment, a portion of the second pixels 131 corresponds to one of the first pixels 121.

For example, assuming that the second panel 130 comprises a region 150 comprising sixteen second pixels. The sixteen second pixels in the region 150 correspond to the four first pixels in the region 140 of the first panel 120, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Therefore, the light LT₂ passing through the four first pixels in the region 140 also passes the sixteen second pixels in the region 150. In this case, four second pixels in the region 150 correspond to one of the four first pixels in the region 140. For brevity, the light passing through the four second pixels of the region 150 is referred to as light LT₃.

In one embodiment, the second panel 130 comprises a second data driver 132 and a second scan driver 133. The second driver 133 provides a plurality of scan signals to turn on a portion of the second pixels 131. The second data driver 132 provides a plurality of data signals. Each of the data signals is utilized to control the transmittance of the light passing through corresponding second pixels. Therefore, the intensity of the light LT₃ is controlled according to the transmittance of the light passing through the second pixels in the region 150.

In one embodiment, the second panel 130 may be a liquid crystal display, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, any display panel can serve as the second panel 130, as long as the display panel needs a light source emitted from a backlight plate. In one embodiment, a quantum dot (QD) display serves as the second panel 130, for example, a quantum dot (QD) film may be coating on the substrate of the second panel, or the quantum dot (QD) Film may dispose on the second panel, and the quantum dot (QD) display has wider color gamut performance, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Furthermore, in the embodiment, the colors of the lights emitted from the second panel 130 may be red, green, blue or white. In this case, the second panel 130 comprises a color filter. In one embodiment, each of the second pixels 131 serves as a sub-pixel to display red light, green light, blue light or white light. In another embodiment, each of the second pixels 131 is a pixel comprising three sub-pixels. In the present disclosure, the number of second pixels 131 is not limited. In one embodiment, the number of first pixels 121 is less than the number of second pixels 131. In this case, the resolution of the first panel 120 in PPI is less than the resolution of the second panel 130 in PPI.

Refer to FIG. 2A, the symbols 211˜213 represent the first pixels of the first panel 130, and the symbols 221˜223 represent the second pixels of the second panel 130. As shown in FIG. 2A, each of the first pixels corresponds to one of the second pixels. For example, the first pixel 211 corresponds to the second pixel 221, the first pixel 212 corresponds to the second pixel 222, and the first pixel 213 corresponds to the second pixel 223. In this case, the second pixels 221˜223 are sub-pixels. In another embodiment, each of the second pixels 221˜223 comprises three sub-pixels.

In FIG. 2B, each of the first pixels corresponds to many second pixels. For example, the first pixel 231 corresponds to the second pixels 241˜243, wherein the colors of the lights displayed by the second pixels 241˜243 are different. In this case, each of the second pixels 241˜243 is a sub-pixel. In some embodiments, each of the second pixels 241˜243 comprises three sub-pixels. In other embodiments, each of the second pixels 241˜244 comprises four sub-pixels, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

FIG. 4A shows a corresponding relationship of the first pixels and the second pixels, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. For clarity, a first panel 431 and a second panel 432 are shown. The first panel 431 comprises a first pixel 411 and a first pixel 412. The second panel 432 comprises a second pixel 420. In this embodiment, the second pixel 420 comprises three sub-pixels. Since the features of the first panel 431 and the second panel 432 are the same as the features of the first panel 120 and the second panel 130 shown in FIG. 1, the descriptions of the first panel 431 and the second panel 432 are omitted.

As shown in FIG. 4A, when a user looks at the second panel 432 in the position P1, the first pixel 411 of the first panel 431 needs to be turned on such that the light passes through the first pixel 411, and then the user is capable of seeing the color displayed by the second pixel 420 of the second panel 432. However, when the user looks at the second panel 432 in the position P2, the first pixel 412 of the first panel 431 needs to be turned on such that the light passes through the first pixel 412, and then the user is capable of seeing the color of the light passing through the second pixel 420 of the second panel 432. The angle θ₁ between the position P1 and the position P2 is referred to as the viewing angle.

The pixels between the first pixel 411 and the first pixel 412 need to be turned on so that the user is capable of seeing the color of the light passing through the second pixel 420 when the user is standing in any position within the angle θ₁. In one embodiment, the pixels between the first pixel 411 and the first pixel 412 are integrated together with the first pixel 411 and the first pixel 412 into a single pixel. FIG. 4B shows how the number of pixels in the first panel 431 and the number of pixels in the second panel 432 are calculated. Assuming the medium, such as the second bottom substrate 323 shown in FIG. 3A, the second bottom polarizer 354, the adhesive 330, the first upper polarizer 351 or the first upper substrate 311, disposed between the first panel 431 and the second panel 432 has an equivalent refraction index n₂, the equivalent refraction index n₂ is equal to 1.5. Additionally, assume that the medium outside of the second panel 432 is air, and the equivalent refraction index n₁ of the air is equal to 1.5.

According to Snell's Law, the relationship between the refraction index n₁ and the refraction index n₂ is expressed by the following the equation (1):

n₁ sin θ₁=n₂ sin θ₂   (1)

Wherein θ₁ is the angle of refraction when the light travels through the second pixel 420, θ₂ is the angle of incidence when the light enters the second pixel 420. The distance d between the first pixel 411 and the first pixel 412 is expressed by the following equation (2):

d=tan θ₂×Y   (2)

If we substitute equation (1) with equation (2), the substituted result is expressed by the following equation (3):

$\begin{array}{cc}d=\tan \left[{\sin }^{-1}\left(\sin {\theta }_1\times \frac{n_1}{n_2}\right)\right]\times Y& \left(3\right)\end{array}$

Assume that the maximum value of the viewing angle θ₁ is 85, the refraction index n₁ is 1 and the refraction index n₂ is 1.5. The angle θ₁, the refraction index n₁ and the refraction index n₂ are substituted with equation (3). The substituted result is expressed by the following equation (4):

d=0.89Y   (4)

Equation (4) is divided by the pixel pitch X of the second pixel 420. The divided result indicates the maximum value of the ratio relationship of the number of first pixels of the first panel 431 and the number of second pixels of the second panel 432. The divided result is expressed by the following equation (5):

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{R_{432}}{R_{431}}={0.89}^2\times {\left(\frac{Y}{X}\right)}^2& \left(5\right)\end{array}$

Wherein R₄₃₁ represents the number of the first pixels of first panel 431, and R₄₃₂ represents the number of second pixels of the second panel 432. In one embodiment, the pixel pitch X is the distance from the center of the second pixel 420 to the center of the next second pixel.

Assume that the minimum value of the viewing angle θ₁ is 40, the refraction index n₁ is 1 and the refraction index n₂ is 1.5. The angle θ₁, the refraction index n₁ and the refraction index n₂ are substituted with equation (3). The substituted result is expressed by the following equation (6):

d=0.47Y   (6)

Equation (6) is divided by the pixel pitch X of the second pixel 420. The divided result indicates the minimum value of the ratio relationship of the number of first pixels of the first panel 431 and the number of second pixels of the second panel 432. The divided result is expressed by the following equation (5):

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{R_{432}}{R_{431}}={0.47}^2\times {\left(\frac{Y}{X}\right)}^2& \left(5\right)\end{array}$

Equation (5) and equation (7) are combined to obtain the range of the ratio relationship of the number of first pixels of the first panel 431 and the number of second pixels of the second panel 432. The combined result is pressed by the following equation (8):

$\begin{array}{cc}0.2209\times {\left(\frac{Y}{X}\right)}^2\le \frac{R_{432}}{R_{431}}\le 0.7921\times {\left(\frac{Y}{X}\right)}^2& \left(8\right)\end{array}$

Y is a distance between the second surface B1 and the third surface T2, X is a pixel pitch between the second pixels, R₁ is the number of the first pixels, and R₂ is a number of the second pixels.

In one embodiment, the pixel pitch of the second pixel 420 is between 80 um and 90 um (80 um˜90 um). The designer determines the ratio relationship of the number of first pixels of the first panel 431 and the number of second pixels of the second panel 432 according to equation (8). In one embodiment, a single first pixel may correspond to 18×18 second pixels.

As shown in FIG. 5, the optical film group 510 comprises a diffusion substrate 504, a diffusion film 505, a first brightness enhancement film (BEF) 506, a second BEF 507 and a reflective BEF 508. The first brightness enhancement film (BEF) 506 is disposed between the first panel and the backlight plate 500. The diffusion film 505 is disposed between the first BEF 506 and the backlight plate 500. The reflective BEF 508 is disposed between the first panel and the first BEF 506. The second BEF 507 is disposed between the first BEF 506 and the reflective BEF 508.

The diffusion substrate 504 is configured to uniformize the lights derived from the luminescent elements 503 to avoid some of the lights being especially brighter than the others. In this embodiment, a gap 509 occurs between the diffusion substrate 504 and the reflecting medium 502 of backlight plate 500. To form the gap 509, the diffusion substrate 504 is a hard substrate. The diffusion film 505 is disposed on the diffusion substrate 504 to again uniformize the intensity of the lights passing through the diffusion substrate 504. In one embodiment, the diffusion substrate 504 or the diffusion film 505 can be omitted.

The first BEF 506 is disposed on the diffusion film 505 to change the direction of the lights passing through the diffusion film 505. In this embodiment, the first BEF 506 comprises a plurality of first patterns. Each of the first patterns extends in a first direction.

The second BEF 507 is disposed on the first BEF 506 to change the direction of the lights passing through the first BEF 506. The second BEF comprises a plurality of second patterns. Each of the second patterns extends in a second direction. The second direction is different from the first direction. In this embodiment, the second direction may be perpendicular to the first direction, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

The reflective BEF 508 is disposed on the second BEF 507 to reflect the lights, which cannot pass through the first bottom polarizer 352 to go back to the backlight plate. After many reflections, the amount of the lights passing through the first bottom polarizer 352 is increased. In one embodiment, the lights passing through the reflective BEF 508 can pass through the first bottom polarizer 352 shown in FIG. 3A. In this case, the reflective BEF 508 is capable of adjusting polarization states of the lights, and the amount of the lights passing through the first bottom polarizer 352 is increased.

FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram of an exemplary embodiment of the light emission zones, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. The luminescent elements in light emission zone 611 form a rectangle. However, because the shape of the backlight plate is not rectangular, or the backlight plate has a solid bending part, a portion of the luminescent elements in the light emission zone 611 is out of the boundary of the backlight plate. Therefore, the positions of the portion of the luminescent elements in the light emission zone 611 need to be adjusted. As shown in FIG. 6A, after the positions of the portion of the luminescent elements in the light emission zone 611 are adjusted, the shape of the light emission zone 612 is a trapezoid, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. The shape of the adjusted light emission zone 612 may be any shape. In other embodiments, when a light emission zone is located in the center of the backlight plate, the probability that a portion of the luminescent elements of the light emission zone is out of the boundary of the backlight plate is reduced. Therefore, the positions of the luminescent elements of the emission area located in the center of the backlight plate do not need to be adjusted. In one embodiment, the arrangement of the luminescent elements of the light emission zone located in the center of the backlight plate is different from the arrangement of the luminescent elements of the light emission zone near the boundary of the backlight plate.

FIG. 6B is a schematic diagram of another exemplary embodiment of the light emission zones, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. When the shape of the backlight plate is not rectangular, or the backlight plate has a solid bending part, a portion of the luminescent elements in the light emission zone 613 and a portion of the luminescent elements in the light emission zone 614 are out of the boundary of the backlight plate. To solve the above problem, in one embodiment, the pitches between the luminescent elements of the light emission zone 613 and the pitches between the luminescent elements of the light emission zone 614 are adjusted. The light emission zone 615 indicates an adjustment result of the light emission zone 613. The light emission zone 616 indicates an adjustment result of the light emission zone 614. In other embodiments, when a light emission zone is near the center of the backlight plate, the probability that a portion of the luminescent elements of the light emission zone is out of the boundary of the backlight plate is low. Therefore, the pitches between the luminescent elements of the light emission zone near the center of the backlight plate may be higher than the pitches between the luminescent elements of the light emission zone near the boundary of the backlight plate.
