FIG. 1 is a diagram of a flexible electronic assembly according to a first embodiment of the disclosure. Referring toFIG. 1 , the flexibleelectronic assembly 100 includes a flexible circuit board 110 and at least oneelectronic component 120. The flexible circuit board 110 includes a dielectric film layer 112 and a patternedconductive layer 114 disposed on the dielectric film layer 112. Theelectronic components 120 are disposed on the flexible circuit board 110 and electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 110, and the flexible angle θ of the flexibleelectronic assembly 100 is greater than 5 degrees. It should be noted that the flexible angle θ refers to the tangent angle formed by the curved flexible circuit board 110 with a horizontal line L tangent to the curved flexible circuit board 110. Besides, the value of the flexible angle θ of the flexibleelectronic assembly 100 is determined according to the material of the flexible circuit board 110 and the sizes of theelectronic components 120 thereon. For example, the smaller the sizes of theelectronic components 120 are, the larger the curving extent of the flexible electronic assembly is. - In the embodiment, the material of the dielectric film layer 112 may be polyimide, glass epoxy resin, polyester, or bismaleimide-triazine resin (i.e. BT resin), and the
electronic components 120 may be disposed on the patternedconductive layer 114. Besides, one of theelectronic components 120 may be a logic control component or a driving component. Theelectronic component 120 may be a chip or a chip package. The other one of theelectronic components 120 may be a light emitting diode chip, a chip having photodiode, or a chip package containing one of the foregoing chips. - In specific, the
electronic components 120 can be the components for forming a flexible display, such as flexible liquid crystal display (LCD). Theelectronic components 120 can be electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through flip chip bonding technology, tape automated bonding technology, or surface mounting technology. For example, one of theelectronic components 120 may be a chip and has a plurality ofbumps 122, and the saidelectronic component 120 is electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through thebumps 122. The saidelectronic component 120 is usually electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through flip chip bonding technology if the material of thebumps 122 of the saidelectronic component 120 is tin, lead, or tin-lead alloy, while the saidelectronic component 120 is usually electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through tape automated bonding technology if the material of thebumps 122 is gold. - Furthermore, if one of the
electronic components 120 is a chip package, the saidelectronic component 120 can be electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through solder paste (not shown). In other words, the saidelectronic component 120 is electrically connected to the patternedconductive layer 114 through surface mounting technology. It should be noted that the electronic components 120 (of enough number) of the flexibleelectronic assembly 100 may be electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 110 through any one, two, or three of the aforementioned technologies. - In order to display image with 3D visual effect, the lenticular lens plate is usually used to deflect the image light to the two eyes, respectively, to form the 3D effect. However, the lenticular lens plate is not the only choice. Before describing the 3D image display, an adjustable liquid crystal (LC) light deflecting unit is disclosed. The adjustable LC light deflecting unit can be generally as a light deflecting unit.
-
FIG. 2 is a performance of a liquid crystal light deflecting unit without bias, according to an embodiment of disclosure. Taking the LClight deflecting unit 140 as an example to serve like lenticular lens, it includes a light deflecting layer sandwiched by twotransparent electrode layers layer 150 with index of refraction nLC and atransparent material layer 152 with index of refraction n. Thetransparent material layer 152 and theliquid crystal layer 150 are in prism structure and have a slant interface. A bias can be applied to theliquid crystal layer 150 by applying voltages to thebottom electrode layer 156 and thetop electrode layer 154, so as to change the aligning direction of the liquid crystal and then the index of refraction nLC can be changed. In the example that the bias is not applied, the direction of the long axis of liquid crystal in theliquid crystal layer 150 is about at the horizontal direction and the index of refraction nLC is represented as ne, with a condition of n<ne. In an example, when the incident light 158 with a polarization parallel to the long axis of liquid crystal, the light is deflected to left according to the Snell's law. This is also known as the E-ray. - Here, the
liquid crystal layer 150 is just an example. Theliquid crystal layer 150 can be an anisotropic material of which the optical axis can be controlled. Even further, thetransparent material layer 152 can also be other anisotropic material of which the optical axis can be controlled as well. -
FIG. 3 is a performance of a liquid crystal light deflecting unit with bias, according to an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 3 , when a bias is applied to theliquid crystal layer 150 by applying a ground voltage to thebottom electrode layer 156 and applying a positive voltage to thetop electrode layer 154, the liquid crystal are rotated to be vertical aligning direction and the index of refraction nLC is changed to no, greater than the index of refraction n of thetransparent material layer 152. In this situation, when the incident light with transverse polarization vertically enters theliquid crystal layer 150, the light is deflected toward the right side, according to the Snell's law. This also known as the O-ray. - Based on the adjustable change of the index of refraction of
liquid crystal layer 150, the incident light can be deflected to the other expected direction under control. As a result, the function like the lenticular lens can be achieved. Additionally, the aligning direction of liquid crystal under control may result in the effect of deflecting the incident light.FIG. 4 is a drawing, schematically illustrating the deflection mechanism from the LC, according an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 4 a, for example, the light being vertically incident to the LC light deflecting unit is not deflected at the output end when the liquid crystal is aligned to the light incident direction. Alternatively, for example inFIG. 4 b, when the bias is applied between the electrode layers, the liquid crystal are rotated to a controlled direction with the change of index of refraction, the incident light is defected to other direction. In other words, based on the property of controllable index of refraction and the aligning direction of the liquid LC, in association with another transparent layer, the incident light can be deflected to the determined direction. -
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating a light deflecting device, according to an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 5 , three LClight deflecting units 140 are shown as an example. Based on technology of flexible assembly, a flexible light deflecting device can be fabricated with multiple LClight deflecting units 140 as the columnar structure on the substrate, such as a flexible substrate or a rigid substrate. The LClight deflecting units 140 can be implemented with thelight source 162. Thelight source 162 can be formed by multiple light emitting devices in this example. It can be understood that eachlight defecting unit 140 is a columnar structure, extending along a vertical line of a displayed image in a practical application. In this example, each LClight deflecting unit 140 has abottom electrode layer 156 and atop electrode layer 154. - A controllable light-deflecting layer is sandwiched between the two
electrode layers transparent material layer 152 with index of refraction no and aliquid crystal layer 150 with controllable index of refraction n1, in which n1 can be adjusted to be less or greater than no. Thetransparent material layer 152 and theliquid crystal layer 150 can have a slant interface. In an example, thetransparent material layer 152 and theliquid crystal layer 150 are the prism structures. Aseparator 160 may be also implemented at the interface. Thetransparent material layer 152 may be, for example, a solid material or another kind of LC without specifically limited to the example. Also, theliquid crystal layer 150 can also be any material with controllable index of refraction without specifically limited to example. In addition, the stack sequence of thetransparent material layer 152 and theliquid crystal layer 150 can also be changed in option. - The optical property is that the index of refraction can be adjusted by applying proper bias between the two electrode layers, so that the incident light can be deflected as adjusted. In this example, the
bottom electrode layer 156 can be the ground voltage layer and can be commonly connected together in flexible shape. In this example, thelight source 162 can be formed from the light-emitting devices over thebottom electrode layer 156, so that the emitted light is directly entering the LClight deflecting units 140. By applying a proper operation voltage individually on each of the top electrode layers in association with the geometric structure, the output lights can be deflected to the determined directions. In one application on 3D display, the output lights of the LClight deflecting units 140 are deflected into a direction at a time period. In next time period, the output lights of the LClight deflecting units 140 are deflected into another direction, for another viewing zone. -
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating another light deflecting device, according to an embodiment of disclosure. The light source 164 can have other choice. In this example, the light source 164 is provided by external collimated light. In this structure, the incidentlight source 154 onto the LClight deflecting units 140 is not vertical. However, with the proper setting of the geometrical locations and the operation bias, the function of deflectinglights -
FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating another light deflecting device with more LC light deflecting units, according to an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 7 , several LClight deflecting units 140 can be formed as alens array 180, being grouped corresponding to pixels so as to form multiple viewing regions when applying to 3D image display. Due to the flexible property, the viewing regions can be easily set up in the space for naked eyes to view 3D image. In temporal multiplexed mechanism for 3D display, several viewing zones corresponding to different viewing angles of same landscape are to be display by a time sequence. The LClight deflecting units 140 can be controlled to respectively deflect the 2D images of viewing zones into viewing directions by the same time sequence. The two eyes of a viewer at different viewing direction to view the left image and the right image of two different viewing zones. As a result, due to the parallax between the two viewing zones, a 3D visual effect can be created in the human visual system. The mechanism for 3D image display is to be described later in detail. -
FIG. 8A is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating pixel structure with multiple viewing zones according to an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 8A , thelens array 180 is implemented behind thepixels pixels light deflecting units 140. Thelight source 162 may provide light just behind the LClight deflecting units 140. All of the LClight deflecting units 140 are adjusted to have the same light emitting direction, corresponding to the viewing zones. However, the light emitting direction is changed by time sequence, corresponding to the time sequence of display, so that images with parallax of multiple viewing zones are sequentially project to different viewing directions for view by two eyes of a viewer at different time. Since the two eyes receive the two images at two viewing zones and form the 3D visual effect. - It can be noted that the flexible display panel in this example of
FIG. 8A , such as the LCD display panel, needs the back light. Alternatively, if the flexible display panel is the type to actively emit image light, such as LED display panel, thelens array 180 is disposed in front of the pixels of the display panel.FIG. 8B is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating pixel structure with multiple viewing zones according to an embodiment of disclosure. InFIG. 8B , thepixels lens array 180 to actively emit the image light. Thelens array 180 in this example does not need thelight source 162. - To have the 3D image display for multiple viewers to view individual 3D content at different portion of the landscape, the flexible display panel can be set as a round geometric structure in an example.
FIG. 9A is a drawing, schematically illustrating a mechanism for 3D image display, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 9A , alight source 200 with the flexible property is assembled as the round geometric structure. Alens array 204 with the flexible property is also set as a round geometric structure to deflect thelight source 200 into multiple viewing zones in a time sequence. Theround display panel 206 is then receives thelight source 200 with multiple viewing zones to display the images according to temporal multiplexed mechanism. The mechanism for 3D image display is described in subsequent embodiments. Thelight source 200 and thelens array 204 can be formed together as an active barrier dynamic backlight slit assembler in an integrated unit. -
FIG. 9B is a drawing, schematically illustrating a mechanism for 3D image display, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 9B , if thedisplay panel 210 is actively emitting the image light, with the same concept, thelens array 204 is disposed as an outer layer, so that the image light can be deflected and enter the multiple viewing zones for the two eyes of each viewer, respectively. - Based on the example in
FIG. 9A , multiple viewers can view the 3D image display with different contents at different display regions of theround display panel 206. Taking four viewing zones as an example to be created, each viewing zone occupies 1/240 second for display one 2D image. One eye receives the first image in 1/240 second at one viewing zone and another eye receives another image in next 1/240 second at the adjacent viewing zone. This is within the acceptable range of the human visual system to compose the 3D effect without causing image blinking. The detail is described inFIG. 10 . -
FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional drawing, schematically illustrating a display structure for 3D image display based on lenticular lens array, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 10 , the embodiment is illustrated for four viewing zones 1-4 located at theviewing location 208. Each viewing zone uses 1/240 second to display one image. In this example, thelight source 200 at specific location is grouped corresponding to each lenticular lens of thelenticular lens array 204. For the four viewing zones, each lenticular lens has four groups 1-4 of light sources corresponding to four viewing zones 1-4. The four groups of light are sequentially turned on for 1/240 second. For example, thegroup 1 oflight source 200 is turned on, and then thegroup 2 oflight source 200 is turned on next for 1/240 second. Likewise, thegroups light source 200 are sequentially turned on for 1/240 second. Generally, the multiple viewing zones equally shares 1/60 second for one image frame. In addition, a uni-directiondiffusion lens plate 202 can be used with thelight source 200 to improve the light emitting direction to form the active barrier. The uni-directiondiffusion lens plate 202 can condense the light individually belonging to each the lenticular lens at transverse direction. - It can be understood that the flexible property has the advantage for bending the display into the geometric structure. However, the flexible property may also be set as a flat structure. According to the need, the flexible property can be replaced by a rigid flat structure. In other words, the provided embodiments as described in the disclosure can also be applied to a rigid flat display.
- The lenticular lenses of the
lens array 204 receive the light and deflect the light into each viewing zone in a time sequence, respectively. Thedisplay panel 206 displays the corresponding images of the four viewing zones by the same time sequence according to temporal multiplexed mechanism. Further descriptions about the 3D image display mechanism will be provided later inFIG. 12 . - The
light source 200 is divided into four groups, which are turned on sequentially, and then a displaying rate of 60 Hz for displaying 3D image still maintain.FIG. 11 is a drawing, schematically illustrating a time sequence for turning on the four groups of the light source, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 11 , the time sequence for turning on the four groups of thelight source 200. When thegroup 1 of the light source is turned on, represented by white region, the other groups 2-4 are turned off. At this moment, only the viewing zone (view 4) corresponding to one eye can be viewed. When thegroup 2 is turned on andgroups 1, 3-4 are turned off, only the viewing zone (view 3) can be viewed at another eye. Thedisplay panel 206 correspondingly displays the images with a period of 1/240 second four different viewing zones. Likewise, thegroup 2,group 3, andgroup 4 are sequentially turned on forviewing zones -
FIG. 12 is perspective drawing, schematically illustrating the 3D image display mechanism, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 12 , for oneviewer 216, thelenticular lens array 204 and theactive barrier 212 form as a backlight source. According to the time sequence for turning the groups of the light source, multiple viewing zones at multiple directions are created. The lights belonging to different viewing zones can enter the left eye (L) and the right eye (R) at different time period. Since the directions of light for the viewing zones are different, the two eyes do not interfere. Only one eye individually receives the image at one corresponding viewing zone at its displaying time period, such as 1/240 second. As a result, the 3D image can be created for the viewer by naked eyes. -
FIG. 13 is a perspective drawing, schematically illustrating multiple viewers at different viewing zones to view individual image content, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 13 , based on the flexible property, theactive barrier 212 is formed in a round shape to emit lights. Each light unit of the active barrier is a thin bar structure, for example. Threeviewers 250 are shown at three viewing locations for different part of image to be displayed in thedisplay panel 214. Eachviewer 250 views the 3D image based on the mechanism as described inFIG. 12 . - The previous embodiments for 3D image display are based on the lenticular lens array in association with the control of the backlight source. However, the
lenticular lens array 204 inFIG. 12 can be replaced by the LC light deflecting units to form liquid lens array. Generally, a light deflecting lens array can be referred and can be the lenticular lens array or the liquid lens array, or any other array with the same function. -
FIGS. 14A-14B are cross-sectional drawings, schematically illustrating a display structure for 3D image display based on liquid lens array, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 14A , theactive barrier 264 as the backlight source includes thelight source 260 and the uni-directiondiffusion lens plate 262. In this embodiment, all of the light source may be turned on/off without grouped. For example, the collimated light source is produced. Each of the LC light deflecting units of theliquid lens array 268 can be controlled to deflect the incident light to a set direction, corresponding to one of the viewing zones by a time sequence. For example InFIG. 14A , the LC light deflecting units of theliquid lens array 268 are adjusted to emit light toward the viewing zone (view 1) at a time period, such 1/240 second. InFIG. 14B , the LC light deflecting units of theliquid lens array 268 are adjusted to emit light toward the next viewing zone (view 2) at the next time period, such 1/240 second. Theflexible display panel 206 sequentially displays the images of the viewing zones. When the left-eye image and the right-eye image at theviewing location 208 separately view the images at two adjacent viewing zones, a 3D image can be created for the corresponding viewer. The display mechanism is like the mechanism for lenticular lens inFIG. 10 . -
FIG. 15 is perspective drawing, schematically illustrating the 3D image display mechanism, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 15 , for oneviewing location 300, theliquid lens array 268 and theactive barrier 264 form as a backlight source. The emitted light in each LC light deflecting unit of theliquid lens array 268 respectively passes theflexible display panel 214 and then enters the left eye (L) and right eye (R) in a time sequence. The left-eye image and the right-eye image are sequentially display in theflexible display panel 214 and sequentially enter the two eyes to form a 3D image. -
FIG. 16 is a perspective drawing, schematically illustrating multiple viewers at different viewing zones to view individual image content, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. InFIG. 16 , based on the flexible property, the active barrier as the 264 is formed in a round shape to emit lights. Each light unit is a thin bar structure. Threeviewing locations 300 are shown at three viewing zones. A viewer at eachviewing location 300 views the 3D image with naked eyes based on the mechanism as described inFIG. 15 . However,different viewing location 300 views different part of theflexible display panel 214. For the example of three viewers, they can be located atdifferent viewing locations 300. Theflexible display panel 214 displays the 3D images for multiple viewers. - It can be understood that if the
display panel 214 displays different contents at the different viewing locations, multiple viewers can separately view different image objects. This is also one of practical applications. - Even further, the previous embodiments for the 3D image display are based on the flexible display panel in light transmission type. The product of LCD panel is more popular in the current market. However, as described in
FIGS. 8B and 9B , the LED display panel is also developed and can actively emit the image light. In this situation, the location of the display panel is behind the lens array, so as to deflect the image light to both eyes with left-eye image and right-eye image. - Even further, because the light deflection of the LC light deflecting unit can be dynamically adjusted, when the viewer is moving viewing location/angle, the image content can be dynamically tracking the viewer. In this mechanism, an additional viewer tracker can be implemented to detect the location of the viewer based on the technology of state-in-the-art without limitation.
