The present invention relates to an antireflection sheet, a display element, and a display device. Specifically, the present invention relates to an antireflection sheet for preventing reflection of light in a certain wavelength range, and further, an organic EL, a liquid crystal display panel (LCD), etc. using the antireflection sheet. The present invention relates to a display element and a display device.
When external light such as sunlight or room illumination light is reflected on the screen of the display device, the contrast of the screen is lowered and whitened, making it difficult to see the image. In order to prevent such a phenomenon, an antireflection film has been conventionally proposed that is attached to the surface of a display device to prevent reflection of external light.
For example, as such an antireflection film, there is one disclosed in JP 2002-122702 A (Patent Document 1). This antireflection film is formed by concentrating convex portions (projections) having a refractive index equal to that of the film substrate on the surface of a transparent film substrate. The convex portion has a triangular cross section, that is, a pyramid shape (a quadrangular pyramid shape) or a conical shape.
Such an antireflection film may be used by being provided on the outer surface of a device, for example, the surface of a transparent protective plate of a display device. At this time, in order to wipe off sebum and dirt adhering to the antireflection film, if the surface of the antireflection film is rubbed with a soft cloth or cleaner, the pyramid-shaped or conical convex portions are easily worn or crushed. The antireflection function of the antireflection film was easily impaired. Similarly, when the transparent protective plate is strongly pressed with a finger, the convex portion on the surface is crushed and the antireflection function is easily impaired.
Moreover, in a display apparatus etc., the anti-reflective film may be affixed on the back surface of a transparent protective board, or the display element under it. Even in this case, when the transparent protective plate is pressed with a finger or a pen for a touch pad, the convex portion of the antireflection film is crushed by pressure due to the contact between the transparent protective plate and the display element, and the antireflection function of the antireflection film May be reduced or damaged.
Therefore, in the antireflection film disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-70164 (Patent Document 2), nano-order convex portions are formed densely on the surface of the antireflection film, and the micron is higher than the height of the convex portions. Scattered order protection pillars. And a convex part is protected by the protection pillar, and when the antireflection film is rubbed or pressed, the convex part is prevented from being damaged.
However, when an anti-reflection film having such a protective pillar is provided on the surface of the device, if the anti-reflection film is wiped with a soft cloth or a fuzzy cloth, the cloth will be reflected beyond the protective pillar. There was a problem in that the convex portion of the protective film was destroyed. Further, even when the antireflection film is provided on the inner surface of the display device or the like, the protective column may be damaged depending on the height of the protective column or the way in which force is applied.
Further, in the antireflection film disclosed in Patent Document 2, the reflectance of light is increased due to the protective column, and the low reflectance characteristic of the antireflection film is impaired, or the haze value is increased due to the protective column. As a result, the optical characteristics deteriorated. Furthermore, when an antireflection film provided with micron-order protective pillars is used in a high-definition display device, there is a problem that the protective pillars can be seen through the screen, resulting in an image defect.
JP 2002-122702 A JP 2004-70164 A
The present invention has been made in view of the technical problems as described above. The object of the present invention is to reduce the reflectance and the low haze value of the convex portion without degrading the optical properties of the antireflection sheet. An object of the present invention is to provide an antireflection sheet capable of improving wear resistance and pressure resistance.
In order to achieve such an object, the antireflection sheet according to the present invention has a secondary cross section including a base layer covering the entire surface of the substrate and a central axis perpendicular to the substrate surface on the surface of the transparent substrate. A resin layer comprising a plurality of fine convex portions having a function shape and a surface layer portion arranged on the surface of the base layer is formed, and the pitch at which the convex portions are arranged is ½ or less of the wavelength of incident light. The aspect ratio of the convex portion is 1 or less, and the difference between the refractive index n1 of the substrate and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer is
| N1-n2 | ≦ 0.05
In addition, the thickness of the resin layer is 11 μm or more, and the relationship of the effective refractive index of each layer when the convex portion is divided into layers having a constant thickness in a cross section perpendicular to the central axis is linear. It is characterized by being. Here, the section having a quadratic function shape means that the boundary line between the convex portion and the air layer in the cross section of the convex portion is a curve represented by a quadratic function. The substrate may be a substrate made of a hard resin or a thin flexible film substrate.
In the antireflection sheet of the present invention, since a plurality of fine protrusions are formed on the surface of the substrate, reflection of light incident on the antireflection film can be prevented by suppressing reflection of light on the surface of the substrate. it can. Here, the arrangement pitch of the convex portions is set to ½ or less of the incident light wavelength (the minimum wavelength when the wavelength range of incident light is wide) because the arrangement pitch of the convex portions is ½ of the incident light wavelength. This is because the reflection of light on the surface of the antireflection sheet becomes large, the haze value becomes large, or coloring due to diffraction occurs, resulting in poor optical characteristics of the antireflection sheet.
Since the convex part in the antireflection sheet according to the present invention has a quadratic function shape with a cross section including the central axis perpendicular to the substrate surface, if the optical characteristics (low reflectance characteristics) are the same, the pyramid shape The aspect ratio of the convex portion can be made smaller than that of the convex portion. As a result, even when the antireflection sheet is rubbed or locally pressed, the convex portion is less likely to be worn out, damaged, or crushed. In particular, by setting the aspect ratio of the convex portion to 1 or less, the wear resistance and press resistance of the convex portion can be made extremely high. Therefore, according to the antireflection sheet of the present application, it is possible to make the wear resistance and pressure resistance of the convex portion very high without deteriorating the optical properties of the antireflection sheet having a low reflectance and a low haze value.
Since the convex part in the antireflection sheet according to the present invention has a quadratic function shape with a cross section including a central axis perpendicular to the substrate surface, the convex part is formed into a layer having a constant thickness in a cross section perpendicular to the central axis. When divided, the relationship of the effective refractive index of each layer becomes linear, and good optical characteristics can be obtained.
In the antireflection sheet according to the present invention, the difference | n1-n2 | between the refractive index n1 of the substrate and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer is 0.05 or less. This is because if the difference between the refractive index n1 and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer is larger than 0.05, the reflection of light at the interface between the substrate and the convex portion increases, and the function of the antireflection sheet is impaired.
Furthermore, in the antireflection sheet according to the present invention, since the thickness of the resin layer is 11 μm or more, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of interference fringes due to light reflected on the surface of the resin layer and light reflected on the back surface.
Anti-reflection sheet certain embodiments of the present invention, as viewed from a direction perpendicular to a surface of the substrate, and wherein the ratio of the area occupied by the convex portion to the area of the substrate surface is 60% or more. This is because if the proportion of the area occupied by the convex portion is smaller than 60%, the proportion of the region where the convex portion does not exist increases, and the antireflection effect at a level required for practical use cannot be obtained.
Another embodiment of the anti-reflection sheet according to the present invention, the difference between the refractive index n1 and the refractive index n2 of the previous SL resin layer of the substrate,
| N1-n2 | ≦ 0.02
It is characterized by being. According to this embodiment, the intensity of the interference fringes can be reduced by reducing the reflectance at the interface between the substrate and the resin layer so that the interference fringes cannot be seen. In particular, the refractive index n1 of the substrate and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer are preferably equal.
Yet another embodiment of the antireflection sheet according to the present invention is characterized in that the height of the convex portion is 400 nm or less. Furthermore, in this embodiment, it is desirable that the height of the convex portion is 50 nm or more. This is because if the height of the convex portion is larger than 400 nm, the strength of the convex portion is weakened and the wear resistance and the pressure resistance are deteriorated. Further, when less than the height Saga 50nm of the convex portion, since function of the anti-reflection sheet is impaired in the reflectance becomes large when the visible light.
In still another embodiment of the antireflection sheet according to the present invention, the convex portion has a rotationally symmetric shape around a central axis perpendicular to the substrate surface. Further, the convex part may have anisotropy instead of rotational symmetry around the central axis.
In the antireflection sheet of the present invention, the convex portion may be formed on a surface arranged toward the viewer side of the substrate, or is arranged toward the viewer side of the substrate. It may be formed on the surface and the opposite surface. Since the anti-reflection sheet of the present invention there is hardly durable crushed protrusions be or are pressed or rubbed, also light reflection preventing function each other to form the surface to be disposed toward the observer side of the substrate Is hard to be damaged. Also, when the convex portions are formed on both sides of the plane of the surface and its opposite side is disposed toward the observer side of the substrate, the antireflection effect is further improved.
Yet another embodiment of the reflection prevention sheet engaging Ru in the present invention, the substrate has an adhesive layer on the opposite side to the resin layer formed is a surface, the adhesive and the refractive index n1 of the substrate The difference from the refractive index n3 of the layer is
| N1-n3 | ≦ 0.02
It is characterized by being. According to such an embodiment, it is possible to make the interference fringes difficult to see by reducing the reflectance at the interface between the substrate and the adhesive layer and reducing the intensity of the interference fringes.
Display device according to the present invention, the surface of the display panel, is characterized in that it has established a pre Kihan antireflection sheet. In the this display device is provided with the reflection preventing sheet of the present invention, hardly reflected external light such as sunlight and interior illumination light, it is possible to improve the visibility while keeping the contrast of the screen it can. In addition, since the antireflection sheet has wear resistance and pressure resistance, the function of the antireflection sheet is hardly impaired by an external force.
The display device according to the present invention comprises a display panel and a transparent protective plate arranged to face the image generation side surface of the display panel, on at least one surface of the front and back surfaces of the transparent protective plate, It is characterized in that it has established a pre Kihan antireflection sheet. In the this display device is provided with the reflection preventing sheet of the present invention, hardly reflected external light such as sunlight and interior illumination light, it is possible to improve the visibility while keeping the contrast of the screen it can. In addition, since the antireflection sheet has wear resistance and pressure resistance, the function of the antireflection sheet is hardly impaired by an external force.
FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating an antireflection sheet according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and FIG. FIG. 2A is a perspective view showing one shape of a protrusion provided on the surface of the antireflection sheet, and FIG. 2B is a perspective view showing another shape of the protrusion. 3A is a schematic plan view showing an example of the arrangement of convex portions on the substrate surface, FIG. 3B is a schematic plan view showing another example of the arrangement of convex portions, and FIG. 3C is a convex portion. It is a schematic plan view which shows another example of arrangement | positioning.
As shown in FIG. 1, the antireflection sheet 10 is formed by densely forming a large number of fine convex portions 12 (a resin layer composed only of convex portions) on a smooth surface of a transparent substrate 11. However, in FIG. 1, the convex part 12 is exaggerated and drawn greatly. The substrate 11 is formed into a plate shape with a transparent resin having a high refractive index, such as polycarbonate resin or acrylic resin. The substrate 11 may be a hard resin substrate or a thin flexible film substrate, and the thickness is not particularly limited.
The convex portion 12 formed on the surface of the substrate 11 has a rotationally symmetric shape around the central axis C perpendicular to the substrate surface, as shown in FIG. The shape of the included cross section is a quadratic function shape. That is, the surface of the convex part 12 is a paraboloid of revolution. The bottom surface of the convex portion 12 may be circular as shown in FIG. 2A, may be square as shown in FIG. 2B, or is a triangle or a polygon more than a pentagon. May be. When the bottom surface of the convex portion 12 has a shape other than a circle, the bottom portion of the convex portion 12 may be cut by a vertical surface as in the case of the square shown in FIG.
Now, as shown in FIG. 1, the height of the convex part 12 represented by a paraboloid is represented by b, and the width (diameter) of the bottom surface is represented by a. Considering the z-axis in the direction of the central axis C of the convex portion 12, the r-axis in parallel with the bottom surface of the convex portion 12, and cylindrical coordinates with the intersection point of the central axis C and the bottom surface as the origin, the convex portion 2 The surface shape is
z = b- [2 (√b) r / a] 2
However, a ≠ 0, b ≠ 0
Thus, it is expressed by two parameters a and b. The ratio of height b to width a at this time is referred to as aspect ratio b / a. The aspect ratio of the convex portion 12 is b / a ≦ 1 (Condition 1)
It is desirable that In addition, the lower limit of the height b of the convex portion 12 is 50 nm as described below, and the maximum arrangement pitch of the convex portions 12 is 400 nm for visible light, so 50 nm / 400 nm = 1/8 is the aspect ratio. This is the lower limit of b / a. However, when considering the incident light including the infrared range, 50 nm / 600 nm = 1/12 is the lower limit of the aspect ratio b / a.
50 nm ≦ b ≦ 400 nm (Condition 2)
It is preferable that As will be described later, since the maximum value of the arrangement pitch P of the convex portions 12 is 400 nm, the maximum value of the width a is also 400 nm. Moreover, since the minimum value of the height b is 50 nm and the aspect ratio b / a is 1 or less, the minimum value of the width a is also 50 nm.
When the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n2 of the convex portion 12 are different, light is reflected at the interface between the substrate 11 and the convex portion 12, and therefore the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index of the convex portion 12 Most preferably n2 is equal,
| N1-n2 | ≦ 0.05 (Condition 3)
If it is. The basis for these conditions will be described later.
If the bottom surface as shown in FIG. 2A is a circular convex portion 12, the width a of the bottom surface of the convex portion 12 is the same regardless of the measuring direction, but the bottom surface as shown in FIG. In the square convex portion 12, the width of the bottom surface is different between the diagonal direction and the direction parallel to the side. In the case of such a bottom surface other than a circle, the width of the bottom surface may be set to a in consideration of a rotation paraboloid that does not have a chip and coincides with the convex portion 12. Therefore, when the bottom surface is square, the width in the diagonal direction may be the width a of the convex portion 12.
The convex portion 12 is formed on the surface of the substrate 11 by a stamper method using a transparent ultraviolet curable resin, for example, an ultraviolet curable polycarbonate resin or an acrylic resin. That is, a stamper (not shown) is provided with a reversal shape of a large number of convex portions 12, and after the ultraviolet curable resin is applied to the surface of the substrate 11, the ultraviolet curable resin is pressed from above with the stamper. An ultraviolet curable resin is molded between the substrate 11 and the stamper, and the ultraviolet curable resin is irradiated with ultraviolet rays and cured as it is. When the stamper is peeled off after the ultraviolet curable resin is cured, a large number of convex portions 12 are formed on the surface of the substrate 11 by the ultraviolet curable resin.
The convex portions 12 formed in this way may be arranged in a honeycomb shape (delta arrangement) on the substrate surface as shown in FIG. 3A, or in a rectangular shape as shown in FIG. It may be arranged. Moreover, a clearance gap may be vacant between the convex parts 12 like Fig.3 (a) (b), and the convex parts 12 may be closely_contact | adhered without a gap | interval like FIG.3 (c). However, when the convex portions 12 are arranged with a gap, it is desirable that the area occupancy is 60% or more (condition 4). Here, the area occupancy is a portion surrounded by a boundary line passing through the center of the convex portions 12 (hereinafter, referred to as a boundary line indicated by a broken line in FIG. 3A or FIG. 3B). The ratio of the area E of the bottom surface of the convex portion 12 to the area F of this area (referred to as a divided area 21) (in FIG. 3, one of the divided areas 21 is hatched). That is,
(E / F) x 100%
It is. When there is no gap between the convex portions 12 as shown in FIG. 3C, the area occupancy is 100%.
Further, the arrangement pitch P of the convex portions 12 is not more than ½ of the wavelength λ of the incident light to be prevented from being reflected by the antireflection sheet 10 (the minimum wavelength when the wavelength range of the incident light is wide). Or less). Therefore, in the antireflection sheet 10 for preventing reflection of visible light, the arrangement pitch P of the convex portions 12 is
50 nm ≦ P ≦ 400 nm
And it is sufficient. Here, the arrangement pitch P can be determined by considering the distance between the protrusions 12 in the case of the honeycomb-shaped arrangement as shown in FIG. 3A, and when the protrusions 12 are randomly arranged, What is necessary is just to consider the average value of the distance between the convex portions 12.
When the pitch P of the convex portion 12 is larger than ½ of the incident light wavelength λ, the reflection of light on the surface of the antireflection sheet increases, the haze value increases, or coloring due to diffraction occurs. Since the optical characteristics of the prevention sheet are deteriorated, it is desirable that the pitch P of the convex portions 12 is 1/2 or less of the incident light wavelength λ. In the case of visible light, assuming that the wavelength range of visible light is, for example, 400 nm to 800 nm, the pitch P of the convex portions 12 is set to 400 nm in order to prevent reflection of light near the maximum visible light wavelength of 800 nm. What is necessary is just to make it below, and when it is going to prevent reflection of the light of the whole visible light, the pitch P of the convex part 12 should just be 200 nm or less.
Further, since the lower limit of the height b of the convex portions 12 is 50 nm, when the aspect ratio b / a is 1 or less, the lower limit value of the arrangement pitch P of the convex portions 12 is also 50 nm.
In the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention, each convex part 12 has a quadratic cross-sectional shape or a rotating paraboloid, so that the top part of the convex part 12 has a curved surface, such as a pyramid shape or a conical shape. The wear resistance and the pressure resistance are improved as compared with the convex portion having a sharp tip. Therefore, even if the antireflection sheet 10 is rubbed with a cloth or a cleaner or pressed with a finger or a touch pad pen, the convex portion 12 is not easily broken, and the antireflection sheet 10 has a low reflectivity or antireflection effect. Is less likely to be damaged or lowered.
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing test results comparing the anti-reflection sheet 10 of the present invention having the convex portion 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape and the antireflection film of the conventional example having the convex portion having a conical shape. It is. The convex portion 12 used in the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention is a paraboloid having a width a of 200 nm and a height b of 170 nm as shown in FIG. (Aspect ratio 0.85). On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5B, the convex portion 102 used in the conventional antireflection film has a conical shape with a width a of 200 nm and a height b of 500 nm, and has a circular bottom surface. (Aspect ratio 2.5). The difference in height b or aspect ratio b / a between the convex portion 12 of the present invention and the convex portion 102 of the conventional example is that the reflectance of the antireflection sheet of the present invention and the reflectance of the antireflection film of the conventional example are equal. This is due to the design. Further, in the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention and the antireflection film of the conventional example, the convex portions are arranged in a delta manner so that the arrangement pitch P is 230 nm (see FIG. 3A).
The abrasion resistance test is performed by rubbing the surface of the antireflection sheet 10 or the antireflection film with a cleaner (paper) impregnated with ethanol and measuring the change in reflectance of the antireflection sheet 10 or the antireflection film. It was. FIG. 4 shows the test results. The horizontal axis of FIG. 4 represents the number of times of rubbing with the cleaner (the number of scratches), and the vertical axis represents the difference between the reflectivity after rubbing and the initial reflectivity (the reflectivity). Represents a deviation). In the antireflection film (conical convex portion) of the conventional example, the reflectivity changed greatly only by rubbing about 10 times. However, in the case of the antireflection sheet 10 (convex portion having a quadratic cross section shape) of the present invention. The reflectance did not change even after rubbing 200 times. Therefore, according to this test result, the antireflection film and the optical characteristics (reflectance) of the conventional example are obtained if the shape of the convex portion 12 is a quadratic cross-sectional shape as in the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention. It can be seen that the wear resistance can be greatly improved without changing the.
According to the test results of FIG. 4, in the convex portion 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape with an aspect ratio b / a of 0.85, the reflectance of the antireflection sheet 10 does not change until the number of times of rubbing is 200, and rubbing. When the number of times is 300, the reflectance changes considerably. In this case, the number of scratches at which the reflectance does not change even when rubbed with a cleaner is at least 200, but the maximum value of the number of scratches at which the reflectance does not change is referred to as the wear resistance number.
Table 1 below shows the results of measuring the number of wear resistances by changing the aspect ratio b / a of the convex portion 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape (with different heights b).
According to Table 1, it can be seen that the wear resistance frequency increases as the aspect ratio b / a decreases. If the shape of the convex portion 12 is a quadratic function shape as described above, the aspect ratio can be made smaller than the convex portion such as a conical shape without deteriorating the optical characteristics. According to the convex part 12, it can be seen that the wear resistance can be considerably increased. In particular, when the aspect ratio b / a of the convex portion 12 is 1 or less, the number of wear resistance is considerably increased. Therefore, as described in the condition 1, it is desirable that the aspect ratio b / a of the convex portion 12 is 1 or less. On the other hand, as can be seen from the fact that the convex portion 12 having the aspect ratio b / a = 1 and the conical convex portion having the aspect ratio b / a = 2.5 have the same reflectance, the convex portion having the conical shape is used. In the case of the part, when the aspect ratio is reduced to 1 or less, the reflectance of the antireflection film is considerably increased.
In addition, from the difference in dimensions between the convex portion 12 of the present invention and the conventional convex portion 102 shown in FIG. It can also be seen that the convex portion having a function shape can considerably reduce the aspect ratio of the convex portion. This point also appears in the simulation results shown in FIG. FIG. 6 simulates the relationship between the wavelength λ of the normal incident light of the antireflection sheet and the reflectance. The antireflective sheet used here is one in which convex portions having a refractive index n2 of 1.48 are arranged in a delta arrangement on the surface of a substrate having a refractive index n1 of 1.48 so that the area occupancy is 70%. The convex part has a pyramidal convex part with a width a of 100 nm and a height b of 150 nm and 200 nm, and a square quadratic cross-sectional function shape with a width a of 100 nm and a height b of 150 nm and 200 nm (see FIG. 2 (b)) was used as a sample.
According to FIG. 6, it can be seen that by forming the convex part into a quadratic function shape, an antireflection sheet having a lower reflectance can be produced even if the height b is lower than that of the pyramidal convex part.
Next, the effective refractive index was examined as one of the optical characteristics. First, the effective refractive index of the antireflection sheet will be described. As shown in FIG. 7, when considering a column 22 having a height equal to the height b of the convex portion 12 having a divided region 21 (region shaded in FIG. 3) as a bottom surface, the convex portion 12 is a column 22. Is inside. The average refractive index of the columnar body 22 in which the convex portion 12 having the refractive index n2 is housed is referred to as an effective refractive index N. That is, if the refractive index and volume of the convex portion 12 are n2 and V2, respectively, the volume of the column 22 is V3, and the refractive index of the air layer is n3 (= 1), the effective refractive index is
N = [n2 * V2 + n3 * (V3-V2)] / V3
Specifically, the effective refractive index N of the convex portion 12 was calculated as shown in FIG. First, after defining the columnar body 22 as shown in FIG. 7, the columnar body 22 is divided into a predetermined interval (thickness) Δb in the horizontal plane as shown by a broken line in FIG. 8, and k layers A1, A2,. , Ak. Next, in each layer A1, A2,..., Ak, the convex portion 12 is approximated by a cylinder as shown by a thin solid line in FIG. And each effective refractive index of each layer A1, A2, ..., Ak is calculated. For example, if the bottom area of the cylinder in the uppermost layer A1 is G1, the bottom area of the column 22 is F, so the effective refractive index N1 of the layer A1 is
N1 = [n2 × G1 + n3 × (F−G1)] / F
It becomes. Similarly, when the effective refractive indexes N2, N3,..., Nk of the respective layers A2, A3,..., Ak are obtained, the effective refractive index of the antireflection sheet 10 is obtained as an average value.
N = (N1 + N2 + ... + Nk) / k
Although the method for obtaining the effective refractive index has been described above for the convex portion 12 having a quadratic function shape in cross section, the effective refractive index can be obtained in the same manner for the convex portion having an arbitrary shape.
FIG. 9 shows the results obtained by simulating the relationship between the height of the convex portion and the effective refractive index for various convex portions. The convex portions used here are pyramid-shaped convex portions 103 as shown in FIG. 10 (a), and convex portions of a rotating body whose cross section passing through the central axis as shown in FIG. 10 (b) is sinusoidal. 104, the convex portion 12 of the present invention having a quadratic cross-sectional shape as shown in FIG. 10C (however, the bottom surface is square), the sinX + sinY type convex portion 105 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 10 (c), the quadratic function shape has a correlation coefficient of 10 (corresponding to rb and rt = 10 in FIG. 9), and the area occupancy is 100%. Was arranged as follows. The sinX + sinY type convex portion 105 has a height in plane coordinates (X, Y) represented by sinX + sinY when an X axis and a Y axis perpendicular to the substrate surface are defined. In addition, the refractive index of resin used for the convex part was set to n2 = 1.52.
As can be seen from FIG. 9, each of the convex portion 104 having a sine wave shape, the convex portion 105 of sinX + sinY type, and the convex portion having a correlation coefficient of 10 (rb, rt = 10) has the best effective refractive index. Similar to the effective refractive index of the pyramid-shaped convex portion 103 , which has the optical characteristics described above, the optical characteristics are deteriorated due to a more rapid change that deviates from the linear change. On the other hand, in the case of the convex part 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape, an effective refractive index having a linear change characteristic can be obtained, which is better than that of the pyramidal convex part 103, which is supposed to have the best optical characteristics. Optical characteristics are shown.
In the case of the convex part 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape, the relationship between the height of the convex part 12 and the effective refractive index is linear, so that the reflection can be achieved without increasing the aspect ratio b / a of the convex part 12. The rate can be reduced. Therefore, according to the convex part 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape, by reducing the aspect ratio to 1 or less, it is possible to increase the wear resistance and the pressure resistance without deteriorating the optical characteristics.
Next, the grounds for Condition 3 will be described. FIG. 11 shows the case where the convex portion 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape with a refractive index n2 = 1.48 is formed on the surface of the substrate with a refractive index n1 = 1.48, and the same as that of the substrate with a refractive index n1 = 1.48. It is a figure showing the reflectance in a visible light region in the case where the convex part 12 which has the cross-sectional quadratic function shape of refractive index n2 = 1.53 is formed on the surface. As shown in FIG. 11, when the refractive index n2 of the convex portion 12 is changed from 1.48 to 1.53 by 0.05, the reflectance is increased at a place where the change is large as indicated by the arrow in FIG. It changes by 0.1% or more. Since there is a practical problem when the reflectance is increased by 0.1% or more, the difference between the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n2 of the convex portion 12 is 0.05 or less as described in Condition 3. Is desirable.
Next, the grounds for Condition 2 will be described. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the relationship between the reflectance in the visible light region and the height b of the convex portion 12. Here, the case where the height b of the convex portion 12 is 10 nm, 50 nm, 100 nm, 150 nm, and 200 nm (the width a is constant) is shown, but when the height b of the convex portion 12 is smaller than 50 nm, the reflectance Changes greatly and the antireflection effect of the antireflection sheet 10 is impaired. On the other hand, when the height b of the convex portion 12 is larger than 400 nm, the convex portion 12 becomes weak and wear resistance and pressure resistance are deteriorated. Therefore, in order for the antireflection sheet 10 to exhibit the low reflection characteristic, as described in the condition 2, the height b of the convex portion 12 is preferably 50 nm or more and 400 nm or less.
Next, the grounds for Condition 4 will be described. FIG. 13 shows the reflectance in the visible light region of the antireflection sheet 10 provided with the convex portion 12 having a quadratic cross-sectional shape with an aspect ratio smaller than 1. However, the case where the convex portions 12 are arranged so that the area occupancy is 90%, 85%, 80%, 70%, 60%, and 50% is shown in comparison. As can be seen from FIG. 13, the reflectance changes greatly between the area occupancy ratio of the convex portion 12 between 60% and 50%. For example, when a curve is drawn with a horizontal axis representing the area occupancy at a certain wavelength and a reflectance representing the vertical axis (not shown), this curve shows an inflection point when the area occupancy is 60%, which is greater than 60%. When it becomes smaller, the reflectance characteristic changes greatly. Therefore, in order to increase the wear resistance and the pressure resistance of the convex portion 12 without deteriorating the optical characteristics of the antireflection sheet 10, in particular, the low reflectance characteristic, as described in Condition 4 above, The area occupancy of the portion 12 needs to be 60%.
FIG. 14 shows a cross-sectional shape of the convex portion 12 used in the antireflection sheet according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the first embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the convex portion 12 is a quadratic function shape (parabola), but in the second embodiment, the top of the convex portion 12 is slightly wider than the quadratic function, and wear resistance and The pressure resistance is high.
As in this example, the convex portion 12 is allowed even if it is slightly deformed from the cross-sectional quadratic function shape. The deformation allowed as long as the wear resistance and pressure resistance of the convex portion 12 are not impaired is sufficient if the correlation coefficient R of the convex portion 12 is 0.8 or more (in the quadratic function itself, the correlation coefficient is R = 1.)
FIG. 15 shows the convex shape (corresponding cross-section function shape) having a correlation coefficient R = 1 and three convex shapes having correlation coefficients R = 0.7, 0.8, and 0.9. As can be seen from FIG. 15, as the correlation coefficient R decreases, fine irregularities on the surface of the convex portion increase and wear resistance decreases. According to the experimental results, it was found that when the correlation coefficient R is 0.8 or more, a convex shape having high wear resistance can be obtained, and a desired number of wear resistances can be obtained.
FIG. 16 is an explanatory diagram of Embodiment 3 of the present invention, and shows a cross section of the concave portion 16 having a quadratic function shape. In Embodiment 1, although the convex part was formed in the board | substrate 11, the fine recessed part 16 which carried out cross-sectional quadratic function shape (rotation paraboloid) like the antireflection sheet | seat by Embodiment 3 was formed densely. Also good. The aspect ratio and other conditions of the convex portion 12 described in the first embodiment also apply to the concave portion 16.
Even in the antireflection sheet in which the concave portion 16 is formed, the reflection of light can be suppressed similarly to the antireflection sheet 10 in which the convex portion 12 is provided. In the case of the concave portion 16, there is no fear that the convex portion 12 will be worn or crushed when spaced apart to some extent. However, even in the case of the recess 16, if it is formed so as to overlap, it is easily damaged by rubbing or pressing with a cloth or the like. Further, in the case of the concave portion 16, the convex portion formed on the stamper is easily worn or crushed. However, if the concave portion 16 has a quadratic cross-sectional shape and an aspect ratio of 1 or less, the stamper has a resistance to resistance. Abrasion and pressure resistance are also improved.
Also in the case of the concave portion, as shown by a broken line in FIG. 16, it may be modified from a quadratic cross-sectional shape if the correlation coefficient is 0.8 or more.
FIG. 17 is a schematic sectional view showing an antireflection sheet 10 according to Embodiment 4 of the present invention. In the antireflection sheet 10 of this embodiment, a resin layer 23 in which a plurality of convex portions 12 (or concave portions) are arranged is formed on the surface of the substrate 11. That is, in this embodiment, the resin layer 23 formed on the substrate 11 is composed of the convex portion 12 and the resin thin film 24, the entire surface of the substrate 11 is covered with the resin thin film 24, and the convex portion 12 is formed on the surface of the resin thin film 24. Is formed.
FIG. 18 shows an organic EL 17 as a display element. In addition, an antireflection sheet 10 is provided on the surface of the right half of the organic EL 17. Alternatively, the convex portion 12 may be formed directly on the surface of the organic EL 17. In the left half of the organic EL 17, the antireflection sheet 10 is not installed, so, for example, 4% of incident light is reflected. In the right half, the antireflection sheet 10 is installed, so that the reflected light is incident light, for example. Of 0.2%.
FIG. 19 shows a liquid crystal display element as a display element. In this liquid crystal display element, a transparent protective cover 19 is provided on the front surface of the liquid crystal display panel 18. The AR coating 20 is provided on the surface of the liquid crystal display panel 18 in the left half of the liquid crystal display element as can be seen conventionally. In such a structure, incident light is reflected on the front and back of the protective cover 19 and also on the surface of the liquid crystal display panel 18. If the reflection on the front and back of the protective cover 19 is 4%, for example, and the reflectance of the AR coating 20 is 2%, 10% of the incident light as a whole is reflected.
On the other hand, in the right half toward the liquid crystal display element, the antireflection sheet 10 is installed on the back surface of the protective cover 19 and the front surface of the liquid crystal display panel 18, respectively. In such a structure, the incident light reflects 4% of the incident light on the surface of the protective cover 19, and the back surface of the protective cover 19 reflects 0.2% of the light due to the antireflection sheet 10. Even on the surface of 18, 0.2% of light is reflected. Therefore, as a whole, the reflected light is 4.4% of the incident light, and the reflected light is halved compared to the left half.
FIG. 20A shows a display device in which a transparent protective substrate 27 is placed on the front surface of a display panel 26 such as a liquid crystal display panel (LCD) or an organic EL, and the front surface of the display panel 26 and both the front and back surfaces of the transparent protective substrate 27. The antireflection sheet 10 is installed in each.
When the antireflection sheet 10 is not used as shown in FIG. 20B, there is a lot of reflected light. For example, if the reflected light from each surface is 4%, a total of 12% of the light is reflected. Visibility is hindered. On the other hand, when the antireflection sheet 10 is provided on each surface as in the display device of FIG. 20A, for example, the reflected light on each surface becomes 0.2%, and the total is suppressed to 0.6%. .
As described above, since the reflection light can be reduced by using the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention for an organic EL, a liquid crystal display element, a display device, etc., the organic EL, the liquid crystal display element, etc. can be used even in bright places such as outdoors. It becomes easy to see the screen of the display element or the display device. In addition, since an antireflection sheet having convex portions having a quadratic cross-sectional shape is used, the antireflection film having convex portions having a cone shape or a pyramid shape is superior in wear resistance and pressure resistance, and has optical characteristics. (Low reflection, low haze) is not impaired, so that non-reflective structures can be installed on the surface of display elements and display devices, and non-reflective structures are provided on the surface of protective covers and transparent protective plates of display elements and display devices. Can be installed. The non-reflective effect can prevent the reflection of external light and make it easy to see the display screen even under external light. In addition, it is possible to prevent the efficiency of emitted light from being reduced due to the surface reflection of an optical substrate such as a display element, a display device, and a protective cover, and it is possible to improve the light utilization efficiency and hence the contrast. In addition, since the antireflection sheet can be installed on the surface of the device that can be touched with a cloth or the like, the effect of being excellent in dust resistance due to the convex or concave portion on the surface of the antireflection sheet and excellent in antifouling properties can be obtained. .
In conventional display devices, the amount of reflected light on the surface and the like is large, so even if interference fringes are generated on the display surface, the interference fringes are steadily buried in the reflected light. I didn't see it. However, when the antireflection sheet 10 of the present invention is used, the effect of suppressing the reflected light is high, which causes a problem that latent interference fringes are visible. In particular, since the light intensity of a specific wavelength is strong in the fluorescent lamp spectrum, interference fringes are likely to occur under illumination of the fluorescent lamp. Hereinafter, an antireflection sheet capable of suppressing such interference fringes will be described.
FIG. 21 shows a display device in which the antireflection sheet 10 is bonded to the surface of the display panel 26 with an adhesive layer 25 made of an adhesive, and how reflected light is generated in the display device. Since the incident light L is partially reflected at locations where the refractive index changes discontinuously, the surface of the resin layer 23, the interface between the resin layer 23 and the substrate 11, the interface between the substrate 11 and the adhesive layer 25, the adhesive layer 25 and the display panel Reflected light L1 to L4 is generated at the interface of 26, respectively. And interference fringe arises when these reflected lights L1-L4 overlap.
[Regarding the thickness of the resin layer] The interference fringes that appear to be the strongest of the reflected light are caused by the reflected light L1 generated at the surface of the resin layer 23 and the reflected light L2 generated at the interface between the resin layer 23 and the substrate 11. is there. Then, paying attention to the thickness of the resin layer 23 and examining the occurrence of interference fringes by the antireflection sheet 10 having the resin layers 23 having different thicknesses, if the thickness of the resin layer 23 is 11 μm or more, the occurrence of interference fringes. It was found that can be effectively suppressed. This experimental method and its results will be described.
As shown in FIG. 22, the antireflection sheet 10 used in the experiment has a refractive index n2 = 1.51 on the surface of the substrate 11 made of a transparent PET film having a refractive index n1 = 1.57 and a thickness d1 = 30 μm. A transparent resin layer 23 is formed. As the antireflection sheet 10, four types of resin layer 23 having a thickness d2 of 5 μm, 11 μm, 15 μm, and 30 μm were prepared. And the difference in the effect which suppresses an interference fringe when using these four types of antireflection sheet | seats 10 with various forms was examined.
As usage forms, five forms as shown in FIGS. Of these, FIGS. 23A and 23B show that the antireflection sheet 10 is provided on all the light reflection surfaces, and FIG. 23A shows that the antireflection sheet 10 is pasted on the surface of the display panel 26. FIG. 23B shows a form in which the antireflection sheet 10 is pasted on both the front surface of the display panel 26 and the front and back surfaces of the transparent protective substrate 27 (total reflectance = 0). .6%). 23C, 23D and 23E show the case where the antireflection sheet 10 is not provided on the outermost surface. FIG. 23C shows the reflection on the front surface of the display panel 26 and the back surface of the transparent protective substrate 27. The anti-reflection sheet 10 is pasted (total reflectance = 4.4%). FIG. 23D shows the anti-reflection sheet 10 only on the surface of the display panel 26, and the transparent protective substrate 27 has no anti-reflection. The sheet 10 is not pasted (total reflectivity = 8.2%). FIG. 23 (e) shows the antireflection sheet 10 pasted only on the back surface of the transparent protective substrate 27. 10 is not applied (total reflectance = 8.2%).
As a light source for illuminating the display device, a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp and natural light were used. The three-wavelength fluorescent lamp is a fluorescent tube having an emission spectrum as shown in FIG. 24, and a “Palook fluorescent lamp (EX-N)” (manufactured by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.) was used for the measurement. As natural light, natural daylight (sunlight at noon on a cloudy day without direct sunlight) having an emission spectrum as shown in FIG. 24 was used. Here, as summarized in Table 2, when the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp was installed at a distance of 3 m from the antireflection sheet 10, the illuminance on the antireflection sheet 10 was 200 lux. In the case of natural daylight, the illuminance of the antireflection sheet 10 was 10,000 lux. The interference fringes were observed at a distance of 40 cm from the antireflection sheet in a direction inclined 10 degrees from the direction perpendicular to the antireflection sheet 10.
As an evaluation standard for the interference fringe suppression effect, not only the forms shown in FIGS. 23 (c) to 23 (e) but also the form in which the antireflection sheet 10 is pasted on all of the light reflecting surfaces as shown in FIGS. 23 (a) and 23 (b). If no stripes were visible, the evaluation was “excellent”. Further, when there is no antireflection sheet 10 on the outermost surface as shown in FIGS. 23C to 23E, no interference fringes can be seen, but it is reflected on all the light reflecting surfaces as shown in FIGS. 23A and 23B. When interference fringes were visible in the form with the prevention sheet 10 attached, the evaluation was “good”. In addition, when interference fringes are visible in any of the forms shown in FIGS. 23A to 23E, the evaluation is “bad”. In other words, the evaluation is “excellent” when no interference fringes are visible even when the total reflectance is 1% or less, and the evaluation is “good” when no interference fringes are visible only when the total reflectance is 4% or more. In any case, the case where an interference fringe was seen was defined as “bad”.
Thus, the result of having evaluated the antireflection sheet 10 of each thickness is shown in Table 3.
In the antireflection sheet 10 having the thickness d2 = 5 μm of the resin layer 23, an interference fringe is seen under the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp even if the antireflection sheet 10 is pasted on any surface, and it is defective for indoor use. May occur. On the other hand, if the antireflection sheet 10 having a thickness d2 of the resin layer 23 of 11 μm or more is used, interference fringes can be seen when the antireflection sheet 10 is pasted on all the reflection surfaces and the reflectance is small. When the antireflection sheet 10 is not pasted on the outermost surface or the like as in 23 (c) to (e) and the reflectance is 4% or more, the interference fringes cannot be seen. As a result, it was found that the occurrence of interference fringes can be effectively suppressed by setting the thickness d2 of the resin layer 23 to 11 μm or more.
[Regarding Difference in Refractive Index between Substrate and Resin Layer] Next, attention was paid to the difference in refractive index between the resin layer 23 and the substrate 11 to examine the occurrence of interference fringes. As a result, when the difference Δn between the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer 23 is 0.02 or less, that is,
Δn = | n1-n2 | ≦ 0.02
It was found that the generation of interference fringes can be effectively suppressed. This experimental method and its results will be described.
The experiment was performed using a display device as shown in FIG. Here, for the substrate 11, the thickness d1 = 50 μm, and the refractive index was changed to n1 = 1.57 (PET), n1 = 1.56 (PET), and n1 = 1.49 (acrylic). For the resin layer 23, the refractive index n2 = 1.51 or 1.53, and the thickness was changed to d2 = 5 μm and d2 = 30 μm. The antireflection sheet 10 was adhered to the display panel 26 using an acrylic or urethane adhesive layer 25 having a refractive index n3 of about 1.5.
The interference fringe suppression effect was evaluated in the same manner as when the thickness d2 of the resin layer 23 was changed. Table 4 shows the evaluation results.
In either case, good results were obtained under sunlight. However, when the difference in refractive index Δn between the substrate 11 and the resin layer 23 is larger than 0.03, when the thickness d2 of the resin layer 23 is thin (d2 = 5 μm) under the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp, the usage pattern is changed. Irrespective of interference fringes. On the other hand, when the refractive index difference Δn between the substrate 11 and the resin layer 23 is 0.02, the interference fringes are not visible regardless of the type of the light source, the thickness d2 of the resin layer 23, and the form of use. . The same can be assumed when the refractive index n2 of the resin layer 23 is smaller than 0.02. As a result, it was found that the occurrence of interference fringes can be effectively suppressed by setting the refractive index difference Δn between the substrate 11 and the resin layer 23 to 0.02 or less.
In Table 4, when the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 is 1.49, the magnitude relationship with the refractive index n2 of the resin layer 23 is reversed from the other values of the refractive index n1. The evaluation result of 4 is not related to the magnitude of the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer 23. That is, when light is perpendicularly incident on a medium having a refractive index n1 from a medium having a refractive index n1, the reflectance R is expressed by the following equation from the Fresnel formula.
This indicates that if the value of Δn = | n1−n2 | is the same, the reflectance R has the same value whether n1 <n2 or n2 <n1.
Table 5 below shows the result of calculating the reflectance R for each of cases where the refractive index difference Δn is 0.02, 0.03, and 0.06.
Therefore, regardless of the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n2 of the resin layer 23, when the refractive index difference Δn is 0.02 or less, the reflectance at the interface becomes an order of a thousandth. It is understood that the interference fringes cannot be recognized visually.
[Regarding Difference in Refractive Index between Substrate and Adhesive Layer] The formula of the reflectance R is also applied to the interface between the substrate 11 and the adhesive layer 25. Therefore, the relationship between the substrate 11 and the resin layer 23 also applies to the refractive index difference between the substrate 11 and the adhesive layer 25. That is, even between the substrate 11 and the adhesive layer 25, if the refractive index difference between the refractive index n1 of the substrate 11 and the refractive index n3 of the adhesive layer 25 is smaller than 0.02,
Then, it can be said that the interference fringes become invisible regardless of any of the type of light source, the thickness d1 of the substrate 11, and the form of use. Therefore, the occurrence of interference fringes can be effectively suppressed by setting the refractive index difference | n1-n3 | between the substrate 11 and the adhesive layer 25 to 0.02 or less.
