Abstract: A phase delay element includes a brightness enhancement layer intermediate a reflection layer and an artificial light. The brightness enhancement layer is defined by a first surface and an opposite second surface. The first surface faces the reflection layer. A first light from the artificial light is incident on the second surface. A phase of the first light is delayed by about 1/4 phase (?/4) so that a second light is emitted from the first surface toward the reflection layer. The second light is reflected from the reflection layer so that a third light is emitted from the reflection layer toward the first surface. A phase of the third light is delayed by about 1/4 phase (?/4) so that a fourth light is emitted from the second surface. Therefore, a portion of the artificial light, which is reflected from the reflection layer, is recycled to improve a luminance of an LCD apparatus.

A process information acquisition unit acquires identification information for identifying a process executed on the processor from the operating system immediately before the interrupt process is detected by the interrupt detection unit. An associating unit associates the counter value acquired by the counter value acquisition unit during the interrupt process with the identification information acquired by the process information acquisition unit immediately before the interrupt process.
