Abstract: An optical film includes a substrate layer and a plurality of optical layers stacked on the substrate layer. The at least two optical layers have microstructures that complement to each other. The optical layer close to the substrate layer is the first optical layer, and the optical far from the substrate layer is the second optical layer. The refractive index of the first optical layer is smaller than the second optical layer, and the microstructure of the second optical layer has an acute angle. Because of the arrangement of the optical layers, the contrast of light intensity can be reduced, and the uniformity can be improved. The invention also provides a backlight module and a display device including the optical film.

Abstract: A light directing sheet includes a light-incident side and a light-exit side opposite to the light-incident side. The light-exit side can be divided into a middle area and two side areas along an X-axis direction. The side areas are located on both sides of the middle area. A plurality of strip structures are protruded and arranged on each of the side areas, and the strip structures are arranged along the direction of the X axis and elongated along the direction of a Y axis perpendicular to the X axis. The strip structures are in a staggered arrangement of high microstructures and low microstructures with a height lower than the high microstructures. Through the type and arrangement of the strip structures on the light directing sheet, the light with an excessively large angle can be refracted again. A backlight module and a display device include the light directing sheet.

The light-exit side of the optical film can be divided into a middle area and two side areas along an X-axis direction. Said side areas are located on both sides of the middle area. A plurality of strip structures are protruded and arranged on each of the side areas of the light-exit side, and the strip structures are arranged along the direction of the X axis and elongated along the direction of a Y axis perpendicular to the X axis. The strip structures are in a staggered arrangement of high microstructures and low microstructures with a height lower than the high microstructures. Through the type and arrangement of the strip structures on the optical film, the light with an excessively large angle can be refracted again. Therefore, the problem of large angle light leakage will be solved and the contrast of the large-angle viewing angle will be improved.

Abstract: A prism sheet includes a sheet body that includes opposite light exiting and incident surfaces, and a lateral side transversely connected between the light incident and exiting surfaces. The light exiting surface includes two side regions disposed on two opposite sides of a reference line on the light exiting surface, which is perpendicular to the lateral side. The sheet body further includes a plurality of parallel microstructure members protruding from the light exiting surface and extending perpendicularly to the lateral side. The microstructure members have a distribution density decreased in a density-decreasing direction parallel to the lateral side and pointing toward either of the side regions from the reference line.
