摘要: The present disclosure provides a liquid crystal phase shifter, including a first substrate and a second substrate which are disposed oppositely, and a liquid crystal layer located between the first substrate and the second substrate. A first metal film layer is disposed on a side of the first substrate facing the second substrate. A second metal film layer is disposed on a side of the second substrate facing the first substrate. The first metal film layer and the second metal film layer arc both patterned metal film layers. The first substrate and the second substrate are both PCBs. The present disclosure further provides a liquid crystal antenna, including the abovementioned liquid crystal phase shifter. The present disclosure further provides a manufacturing method of a liquid crystal phase shifter, which is used for manufacturing the abovementioned liquid crystal phase shifter. In ultra-high-frequency wireless communications, the larger a dielectric constant and a dielectric loss value of a substrate material are, the higher the dielectric loss is, and the poorer signals are. The PCBs used in the present application are used as the substrates of the liquid crystal antenna. The dielectric constants and the dielectric loss of the PCBs are less than those of a glass substrate usually used by a liquid crystal panel, so that the PCBs are lower in dielectric loss, which is favorable for improving the performance of the liquid crystal antenna in ultra-high frequency band application.

摘要: The present disclosure provides a manufacturing method of a flat panel liquid crystal antenna, including the following steps: providing a first substrate, wherein the two sides of the first substrate are provided with a first metal film layer and a third metal film layer respectively; simultaneously patterning the metal film layer on the two sides to obtain a patterned first metal film layer and a patterned third metal film layer; providing a second substrate, wherein one side of the second substrate is provided with a second metal film layer; patterning the second metal film layer to obtain a patterned second metal film layer; and oppositely bonding the first substrate and the second substrate to form a liquid crystal cell, and preparing a liquid crystal layer. The present disclosure also provides a flat panel liquid crystal antenna by using the above method. Through structural improvement, simultaneous patterning of the metal on the two sides is made possible, most low-efficiency yellow-light procedures are omitted, and time for busy waiting and model switching is saved. The flat panel liquid crystal antenna can be manufactured on a large scale, the manufacturing efficiency is improved, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.
