Abstract: A color filter with low color shift is defined by a light leakage spectrum in the dark state. The color filter is disposed between two polarizing plates so as to measure a first spectrum of dark state a(?), wherein the polarizing directions of the polarizers are orthogonal to each other. A second spectrum of dark state b(?) while the color filter is removed, and then a ratio spectrum of light leakage intensity I(?)=(a(?)/b(?)) is determined. A maximum value P1 in the ratio spectrum of light leakage intensity is determined in a wavelength region in which the ratio spectrum of light leakage intensity of green photoresist overlaps that of a blue photoresist. A maximum value P2 in the ratio spectrum of light leakage intensity is determined in a wavelength region in which the ratio spectrum of light leakage intensity of red photoresist locates.

Abstract: A positioning module positions the location of the mobile communication apparatus. A determination module stores a map and determines whether the location of the mobile communication apparatus is within one of the effective communication ranges of the available base stations based on the map. A processing module ceases searching for the signals of available base stations if the location of the mobile communication apparatus is determined not to be within one of the effective communication ranges. A mobile communication apparatus can cease searching for the signals of available base stations if the mobile communication apparatus is not within one of the effective communication ranges of any available base stations or the search takes too much time. Therefore, power is saved.
