  • Patent number: 10725318
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a surface relief liquid crystal lenticular device, a manufacturing method therefor, and a display device with same. The liquid crystal lenticular device (60) includes an upper substrate module (171), a lower substrate module (161), a plano-concave lens module (64), a plurality of liquid crystal molecules (81), a sealing plastic structure (82), an electrically-conductive structure (83), and an external power supply (V). The lower substrate module (161) comprises a lower ITO electrode layer (62), a secondary ITO electrode (62a), an electrical blocking structure (62b), and several lower alignment targets (63). The upper substrate module (171) comprises an upper ITO electrode layer (72), a plurality of shading portions (75), and several upper alignment targets (73). A plurality of liquid crystal lenticular lenses is driven by a voltage to achieve the aim of 2D and 3D switchable display.
