OPTICAL SENSOR AND DISPLAY PANEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17622852 titled 'OPTICAL SENSOR AND DISPLAY PANEL

Simplified Explanation

The present application describes an optical sensor and a display panel that includes the optical sensor. The optical sensor consists of a substrate, a photosensitive device, and a filter layer. The filter layer is designed with a lens shape, which allows it to absorb single-band light and increase the amount of light entering the sensor. This eliminates the need for a separate microlens film layer and simplifies the manufacturing process, reducing production costs.

  • The display panel includes an optical sensor with a lens-shaped filter layer.
  • The filter layer absorbs single-band light and enhances the amount of light entering the sensor.
  • The traditional process of preparing a microlens film layer and a filter layer is eliminated.
  • The simplified process flow reduces the production cost of the optical sensor and display panel.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various fields where optical sensors and display panels are used, such as:

  • Consumer electronics: Smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices with displays.
  • Automotive industry: Instrument clusters, infotainment systems, and heads-up displays.
  • Medical devices: Imaging equipment, monitors, and diagnostic devices.
  • Industrial applications: Machine vision systems, quality control, and automation.

Problems Solved

The technology addresses the following problems:

  • Complex manufacturing process: The traditional method of preparing separate microlens film and filter layers is time-consuming and costly.
  • Limited light absorption: Single-band light absorption is achieved by the lens-shaped filter layer, improving the sensor's performance.
  • Reduced light entering the sensor: The lens-shaped filter layer increases the amount of light entering the sensor, enhancing its sensitivity.

Benefits

The use of this technology offers several benefits:

  • Simplified manufacturing process: By eliminating the need for a separate microlens film layer, the process flow is simplified, reducing production costs.
  • Improved sensor performance: The lens-shaped filter layer enhances light absorption and increases the amount of light entering the sensor, improving its sensitivity.
  • Cost reduction: The simplified process and reduced production costs contribute to overall cost reduction for the optical sensor and display panel.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present application provides an optical sensor and a display panel. The display panel comprises the optical sensor, and the optical sensor comprises a substrate, a photosensitive device and a filter layer. The filter layer is configured to have a lens shape. It can not only achieve the absorption of single-band light, but also increase the amount of light entering the optical sensor. Meanwhile, the traditional process of preparing the microlens film layer and the filter layer can be omitted, thereby simplifying the process flow of the optical sensor and the display panel and reducing the production cost.
