  • Patent number: 8109650
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) illuminant system, a manufacture method thereof, and a backlight module using the same are provided. The LED illuminant system includes a plurality of white light illuminants and at least one green light illuminant mixed in the white light illuminants. A light power ratio of the green light illuminant to the white light illuminants is in between ? to 1/20. The color temperature of the whole illuminant system will be enhanced to a certain extent by mixing the green light illuminant and the white light illuminants. The manufacture method includes the following steps: obtaining a transmission spectrum of the white light illuminants; analyzing the transmission spectrum to determine n supplemental amount of a green light; and disposing at least one green illuminant in accordance with the supplemental amount of the green light.

  • Patent number: 7950814
    Abstract: A backlight module includes an optical film set and a plurality of light source sets having a first light source and a second light source. The first light source generates a first chromaticity light while the second light source generates a second chromaticity light. The first chromaticity light mixes with the second chromaticity light in the space between the light source sets and the optical film set and then enters the optical film set. The first chromaticity light and the second chromaticity light have their own spectrum and both spectra fall into a first color region of the CIE 1931 color space. Within the first color region, the spectrum of the first chromaticity light is close to a second color region while the spectrum of the second chromaticity light is close to a third color region.

  • Patent number: 7935981
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) package includes a carrier, an LED chip, an encapsulant, a plurality of phosphor particles, and a plurality of anti-humidity particles. The LED chip is disposed on and electrically connected to the carrier. The encapsulant encapsulates the LED chip. The phosphor particles and the anti-humidity particles are distributed within the encapsulant. A first light emitted from the LED chip excites the phosphor particles to emit a second light. Some of the anti-humidity particles are adhered onto a surface of the phosphor particles, while the other anti-humidity particles are not adhered onto the surface of the phosphor particles. The anti-humidity particles absorb H2O so as to avoid H2O from being reacted with the phosphor particles. The LED package of the present application has favorable water resistance.

  • Patent number: 7922362
    Abstract: A circuit board assembly and a backlight module comprising the circuit board assembly are provided. The circuit board assembly has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and further comprises at least one laminate, a first conductive wiring structure and a coating. The first conductive wiring structure is formed on the first surface. The coating is formed on the coating area of the second surface, wherein the coating can conduct heat and provide electric insulation. Thus, the circuit board assembly is adapted to outwardly conduct heat from the laminate through the second surface and to promote the heat dissipation efficiency of the circuit board assembly.
