  • Publication number: 20060158724
    Abstract: A film for a screen has a light transmitting substrate and a plurality of structures disposed on the substrate. An optical material at least partially fills cavities between the structures. A method of forming a film includes providing a light transmitting substrate having a plurality of structures disposed thereon and at least partially filling the cavities therebetween with an optical material.
    Type: Application
    Filed: March 23, 2006

  • Publication number: 20050152032
    Abstract: A composition having at least about 10 percent perfluoroalkylsulfonamideoethyl acrylate; at least about 5 percent aliphatic urethane acrylate oligomer; at least about 1 percent acrylate monomer; and less than about 84 percent other reactive and non-reactive components. The composition, with the addition of a light absorbing pigment, is particularly useful as a light absorbing adhesive in an optical element such as a rear projection screen that incorporates totally internally reflecting structures to disperse the light passing through the screen.
