This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0160723 filed on Nov. 29, 2016, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to a display device, and more particularly, to a touch sensitive element and a display device including the same. Although the present disclosure is suitable for a wide scope of applications, it is particularly suitable for improving piezoelectricity and light transmissibility of a touch sensitive element and a display device including the same.
Recently, in response to a demand of users who want to conveniently use various display devices including a liquid crystal display device and an organic light emitting display device, a touch type display device which a user touches a display device to input information is broadly used. Therefore, researches are continued to utilize a haptic device to provide direct and various tactile feedbacks to the users.
a vibration motor such as an eccentric rotating mass (ERM) or a linear resonant actuator (LRA) has been used for the display device as a haptic device. The vibration motor is a mean to vibrate the entire display device. Therefore, there have been problems in that a size of a mass needs to be increased in order to increase a vibration strength, it is difficult to modulate a frequency to adjust a level of the vibration, a response speed is very slow, and it is not appropriate to be used for the flexible display device.
In order to solve the above-described problems, a shape memory alloy (SMA) and electroactive ceramics (EAC) have been developed as a material for the haptic device. However, the shape memory alloy (SMA) has a slow response speed, a short lifespan, and is opaque and the electroactive ceramics (EAC) are brittle. Thus, it is difficult to apply the shape memory alloy and the electroactive ceramics to the display device, specifically, to the flexible display device.
Therefore, recently, a haptic device technology using an electroactive polymer (EAP) has attracted attention. The electroactive polymer is a polymer which may be deformed by an electrical stimulation and may repeatedly expand and be contracted and bent due to an electrical stimulation. A ferroelectric polymer among various types of electroactive polymers is mainly used. For example, the ferroelectric polymer includes a poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) based polymer.
The PVDF is a polymer having a crystallinity of 50% and a piezoelectricity thereof is based on the β-crystal region. Various researches for improving a β-crystal region and a permittivity to improve the piezoelectricity of the PVDF have been conducted and additives such as multi-wall carbon nano tube (MWCNT) or BaTiO3 have been introduced. However, due to the introduction of the MWCNT, there is a problem in that when a content of MWCNT exceeds a certain limit, the depolarization due to the increase of the electrical conductivity proceeds and consequently, the β-crystal region of PVDF is reduced. Further, when a ceramic material such as BaTiO3 is added, there is a problem in that the light transmittance is deteriorated or a dispersion property becomes poor.
Therefore, studies on an electroactive polymer or an electroactive film which may improve the piezoelectricity of a haptic device without deteriorating other properties such as light transmittance are required.
The present disclosure is to provide a touch sensitive element which may improve the piezoelectricity without deteriorating light transmissibility and a display device including the same.

Referring to
The electroactive film 110 is interposed between the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 to cause vibration or bending by an electrical stimulation.
The electroactive film 110 of the present exemplary aspect may be formed of a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) based polymer and a cyanide (CN) based polymer.
Specifically, the PVDF based polymer is an electroactive polymer (EAP) in which vibration is generated when a voltage is applied.
For example, the PVDF based polymer may include one of PVDF, a PVDF based copolymer, and a PVDF based terpolymer, but is not limited thereto.
The PVDF copolymer is a polymer formed of two kinds of monomers and for example, uses P (VDF-TrFE)(poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene)). The PVDF based terpolymer is a polymer formed of three kinds of monomers and is advantageous because it does not involve a dangerous poling process unlike the PVDF. The poling process is a process of applying a high DC voltage to the polymer to arrange atoms having a specific charge in one direction. For example, the PVDF based terpolymer may be P(VDF-TrFE-CFE)(poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorofluoroethylene) or P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE)(poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene).
However, the PVDF based polymer has problems in a high applied voltage and a relatively low vibration characteristic. Therefore, in the present exemplary aspect, in order to improve the low vibration characteristic of the PVDF based polymer, a CN based polymer is introduced to the PVDF based polymer, as an additive. A configuration and an effect thereof will be described below.
The CN based polymer of the present exemplary aspect is used as an additive to improve a piezoelectricity of the electroactive film 110. Such a CN based polymer is advantageous in that a permittivity (high-k) is higher than that of the PVDF based polymer, compatibility at the time of being mixed with the PVDF based polymer is excellent, and the light transmissibility is not deteriorated.
Generally, in order to improve the piezoelectricity of the touch sensitive element, a piezoelectric constant needs to be increased. Further, in order to increase the piezoelectric constant, a permittivity and a polarization value need to be increased. This is because as represented in Equations 1 and 2, the piezoelectricity is proportional to the piezoelectric constant and the piezoelectric constant is proportional to the permittivity and the polarization.
(where F is a resisting force of a piezo actuator when a load is applied, N is a number of laminated actuators, S is a cross-section of the actuator, L is a length of the actuator, Y is Young's modulus, d33 is a piezoelectric constant, and V is an applied voltage.)
d33∝2εP3 [Equation 2]
(where d33 is a piezoelectric constant, ε is a dielectric constant, and P3 is polarization.)
Therefore, the CN based polymer having a higher dielectric property than the PVDF based polymer is added so that the piezoelectricity of the electroactive film 110 can be improved.
For example, such a CN based polymer may be PVDCN(polyvinylidene cyanide) represented by the following Chemical Formula 1 or PMVC(poly(methylvinylidene cyanide)) represented by the following Chemical Formula 2.
In Chemical Formula 1, n is an integer of 6 to 10.
In Chemical Formula 1, n may be selected from an appropriate range in consideration of a compatibility and a physical property at the time of being mixed with the PVDF based polymer and accordingly, a molecular weight of the PVDCN may be in the range of 400 to 800.
In the above description, when n is smaller than 6, the molecular weight is too small and the PVDCN is a liquid at a room temperature so that it is difficult to use the PVDCN. In contrast, when n exceeds 10, the efficiency of contribution of dipole moments per every unit may be drastically reduced. This is because since the CN based polymer has a small radius of curvature due to a repulsive force of a substituent non-shared electron pair, the larger the molecular weight, the more the total dipole moment canceled. Generally, a radius of curvature of the PVDF is 30.0 Å and a radius of curvature of PVDCN is 8.5 Å.
In Chemical Formula 2, n is an integer of 6 to 20.
Similar to Chemical Formula 1, in Chemical Formula 2, n may be selected appropriately in the level of oligomer in consideration of a compatibility and a physical property at the time of being mixed with the PVDF based polymer and accordingly, a molecular weight of the PMVC may be in the range of 500 to 2000. The reason why the range of n is limited in Chemical Formula 2 is the same as Chemical Formula 1 and a radius of curvature of PMVC is generally 12.6 ÅA.
The PVDCN may be produced by a reaction mechanism of the following Reaction Formula 1.
According to Reaction Formula 1, alcohol (ROH) and vinylidene cyanide (VDCN) are reacted with an ionic catalyst and then dehydrogenated to produce RO-VDCN—. Thereafter, a process of causing the produced RO-VDCN— to react with the VDCN is repeated.
The PMVC may be produced by a reaction mechanism of Reaction Formula 2.
According to Reaction Formula 2, alcohol (ROH) and methyl vinylidene cyanide (MVDCN) are reacted with an ionic catalyst and then dehydrogenated to produce RO-MVDCN—. Thereafter, a process of causing the produced RO-MVDCN— react with the MVDCN is repeated.
The CN-based polymers such as PVDCN and PMVC may improve the piezoelectric characteristics by using a C—N bond having a larger dipole moment value than a C—F bond of the PVDF.
This is because a high dipole moment of the polymer increases a polarization value of the polymer and the piezoelectricity is proportional to the polarization value as represented in the above-described Equations 1 and 2.
From a viewpoint of improving the piezoelectricity of the electroactive film 110, for example, the CN based polymer may be added in an amount of 0.1 weight % to 2.2 weight % with respect to the total weight of a composition of the electroactive film 110. The CN based polymer may be added in the amount of 0.7 weight % to 1.8 weight % with respect to the total weight of a composition of the electroactive film 110. In this case, when the added amount of the CN based polymer is less than 0.1 weight %, the piezoelectric improvement effect may be insufficient. In contrast, when the added amount of the CN based polymer exceeds 2.2 weight %, the light transmissivity may be deteriorated. In the present disclosure, the composition of the electroactive film may include the PVDF based polymer, the CN based polymer, and a solvent for mixing the polymers.
In the electroactive film 110 configured as described above, the permittivity and the vibration strength may be improved by adding the CN-based polymer exhibiting a higher dielectric characteristic and polarization characteristic than the PVDF-based polymer. Accordingly, the electroactive film 110 may satisfy characteristics in that a vibration acceleration at a voltage of 400 V is 0.82 G to 3.0 G and a permittivity at a frequency of 100 Hz is 55.1 to 100. When the vibration acceleration and the permittivity of the electroactive film 110 satisfy the above ranges, the vibration strength of the touch sensitive element 100 may be improved while lowering the driving voltage.
However, in the above description, when the vibration acceleration of the electroactive film 110 is lower than 0.82 G or the permittivity is lower than 55.1, the vibration strength improving effect may be insufficient. In the meantime, when a content and a material characteristic of the CN based polymer, a thickness of the electroactive film 110, and the like are considered, it is difficult to implement an electroactive film in which the vibration acceleration exceeds 3.0 G or the permittivity exceeds 100.
Further, the electroactive film 110 may satisfy a characteristic in that the light transmittance is 89.1% or higher. Generally, in order to dispose the touch sensitive element on a front surface of the display panel, the light transmittance of the touch sensitive element needs to be 80% or higher. The electroactive film 110 of the present exemplary aspect may serve as a touch sensitive element having excellent permittivity and light transmittance, so that a touch sensitive element which may be disposed above the display panel may be manufactured and thus finally, a direct tactile feedback may be transmitted to the user.
An example of a manufacturing method of an electroactive film 110 of the present exemplary aspect will be described below. First, a predetermined amount of PVDF based polymer and CN based polymer are put into a soluble solvent such as cyclo-pentanone to have the above-mentioned composition range and then mixed to produce a mixture. Thereafter, the mixture is coated on the first electrode 120 using a spin-coating method to form a coating film. Next, the coating film is hardened at a temperature of 50° C. to 100° C. for 5 minutes to 30 minutes, dried at a temperature of 80° C. to 150° C. for 10 minutes to 30 minutes, and then thermally processed at a temperature of 100° C. to 150° C. for 20 minutes to 30 minutes in this order. However, the soluble solvent, the hardening condition, the drying condition, the thermal processing condition, and the coating method are not limited thereto, but any appropriate condition which is known in the art may be employed.
An addition of the CN based polymer of the electroactive film 110, for example, PMVC can be verified by GPC, XRD, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FT-IR, and Raman analysis of the following

Further, the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may be formed of a soft electrode which is manufactured by mixing an elastic body to carbon conductive grease, carbon black or carbon nano tube (CNT) so as to be appropriate for smooth repeated driving of the touch sensitive element 100. The first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may be formed of the same material or formed of different materials.
In the meantime, when the touch sensitive element 100 of the present disclosure is disposed on the display panel, the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may include a transparent conductive material to secure transparency of the touch sensitive element. However, the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 are not limited thereto and the transparent conductive material may include one of indium tin oxide (ITO), graphene, a metal nano wire, and transparent conductive oxide (TCO).
When at least one of the first electrode 120 and the second electrode is formed as an ITO electrode, an adhesiveness of the electroactive film 110 with the ITO electrode may be improved. This is due to the fact that the OH group on the ITO surface and a RO group of the PVDCN or PMVC terminal group form a chemical bond by the condensation reaction as represented by the following Reaction Formula 3. Therefore, the electroactive film 110 may satisfy a characteristic in that the adhesiveness with the ITO electrode is 1.42 N or higher. The adhesiveness of the electroactive film 110 with the ITO electrode may be 1.42 N to 3 N. That is, the adhesiveness of the electroactive film 110 with the ITO electrode is improved to be 1.42 N or higher by the chemical bond represented in the following Reaction Formula 3. However, when a strength of the chemical bond represented in the following Reaction Formula 3 and an adhered area between the electroactive film 110 and the ITO electrode are considered, the adhesiveness between the electroactive film 110 and the ITO electrode may not exceed 3 N.
The first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 are disposed on both surfaces of the electroactive film 110 by various methods. For example, the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may be disposed on both surfaces of the electroactive film 110 by methods such as a sputtering, printing, and slit coating method. Specifically, when the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 are formed of the same material, the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may be simultaneously disposed.
A voltage is applied to the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 from the outside to form an electric field. Here, in order to form an electric field in the electroactive film 110, voltages with different magnitudes or voltages having opposite electrical properties may be applied to the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130. For example, when a positive (+) voltage is applied to one of the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130, a negative (−) voltage or a ground voltage may be applied to the other electrode.
Further, the voltage which is applied to the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130 may be an AC voltage or a DC voltage. When the AC voltage is applied to the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130, the electroactive film 110 may be periodically displaced, so that a vibrating effect may be achieved. When the DC voltage is applied to the first electrode 120 and the second electrode 130, the electroactive film 110 may maintain a bent state.
The touch sensitive element 100 configured as described above may lower the driving voltage and improve the piezoelectricity without substantially lowering the light transmittance, using the electroactive film 110 with excellent permittivity, vibration strength, and light transmittance by adding the CN based polymer which exhibits higher dielectric and polarization characteristics than the PVDF based polymer.

Examples
Hereinafter, a configuration and an action of the present disclosure will be described in more detail by means of an exemplary aspect. However, this is suggested as an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure, but may not be interpreted to limit the present disclosure in any meanings.
Contents which are not described herein may be sufficiently and technically deducted by those skilled in the art so that the description thereof will be omitted.
Specimens according to first to sixth exemplary aspects, and a first comparative aspect with 10 cm in width and 10 cm in length were prepared by preparing an electroactive film with a thickness of 15 mm using a composition represented in Table 1 and then forming an ITO film with a thickness of 20 nm on both surfaces of the electroactive film to cut the ITO film.
Vibration accelerations of the electroactive films of the specimens according to the first to sixth exemplary aspects, and the first comparative aspect at every voltage at a frequency of 100 Hz were measured to evaluate a vibration characteristic. A measurement result was listed in Table 2.
Further, a light transmittance, a haze, a permittivity at a frequency of 100 Hz, and an adhesive strength with the ITO electrode of the electroactive films of the specimens according to the first to sixth exemplary aspects, and the first comparative aspect were measured. A measurement result was listed in Table 2.
However, the adhesive strength with the ITO electrode was measured as a force which is separated at 90 degrees in a state when the ITO electrode above the electroactive film was removed and a GLS coating film on which the ITO electrode is deposited and a hardened electroactive film were used. Specifically, the electroactive film was formed by spin-coating the composition of Table 1 on the ITO electrode at 500 rpm for 15 seconds to form a coating film, curing the coating film at 75° C. for 10 minutes, and then thermally processing the coating film at 120° C. for 30 minutes.
Further, spontaneous polarization values of the electroactive films of the specimens according to the fourth exemplary aspect and the first comparative aspect at a voltage of 115 V were measured and the measurement results were represented in Table 3. In this case, the polarization behavior according to the electric field of the P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) polymer used for the electroactive film of the specimen according to the fourth exemplary aspect was represented in
Referring to Table 2, it was understood that the permittivity and the vibration acceleration of the electroactive films of the first to sixth exemplary aspects were considerably improved as compared with the permittivity and the vibration acceleration of the electroactive film of the first comparative aspect. In this case, the electroactive films of the first to sixth exemplary aspects exhibited characteristics in that the permittivity at a frequency of 100 Hz was 55.1 or higher and a vibration acceleration at a voltage of 400 V was 0.82 G or higher.
Further, it was understood that the adhesive strength with the ITO electrode of the electroactive films of the first to sixth exemplary aspects was considerably improved as compared with the adhesive strength with the ITO electrode of the electroactive film of the first comparative aspect. The adhesive strength with the ITO film of the electroactive films of the first to sixth exemplary aspects was 1.42 N or higher.
However, the light transmittance of all the electroactive films of the first to sixth exemplary aspects were 89.1% or higher so that there is no significant difference as compared with the light transmittance of the electroactive film of the first comparative aspect.
As seen from the above experiment result, it was understood that in the electroactive film of the first to sixth exemplary aspects which satisfied the conditions suggested by the present disclosure, the permittivity, the vibration acceleration, and the adhesive strength with the ITO electrode were significantly improved without lowering the light transmittance, as compared with the first comparative aspect which did not satisfy the conditions.
Referring to Table 3 and
By doing this, it is understood that the electroactive film of the fourth exemplary aspect which satisfied the condition suggested by the present disclosure had an improved vibration characteristic by improving the polarization value as compared with the first comparative aspect which did not satisfy the conditions.
