Abstract: The present invention discloses a light directing film comprising a first structured major surface, a second major surface opposite to the first structured major surface and a reference plane between the first structured major surface and the second major surface, wherein the reference plane is substantially perpendicular to the thickness direction of the light directing film, wherein the first structured major surface comprises a first prism element and a second prism element extending substantially in a first direction, wherein a first ridge of the first prism element has a first height relative to the reference plane and a second ridge of the second prism element has a second height relative to the reference plane, wherein the first height of the first ridge of the first prism element varies along the first direction. Preferably, the maximum of the first height is larger than the maximum of the second height.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a light redirecting film. The light redirecting film comprises a support substrate and an optical substrate. The support substrate comprises a unitary body, wherein the unitary body has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The optical substrate has a third surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, wherein the fourth surface is a structured surface, and the second surface of the unitary body faces the third surface of the optical substrate. A plurality of particles are disposed in a region below the first surface of the unitary body, wherein the thickness of the region is smaller than the thickness of the unitary body.

Abstract: This invention discloses a method of forming an uneven structure on a substrate. Cut a plurality of trenches in an order on a surface of a mold through a control system, wherein the plurality of trenches comprise at least one first trench, wherein for any second trench of the at least one first trench, the second trench overlaps with at least one third trench different from the second trench such that the second trench is cut off by the at least one third trench. Use the surface of the mold to emboss a thin film on the substrate to form the uneven structure.

Abstract: An optical substrate having a structured prismatic surface and an opposing structured lenticular surface. The structured lenticular surface includes shallow-curved lens structures. Adjacent shallow-curved lens structure may be continuous or contiguous, or separated by a constant or variable spacing. The lens structure may have a longitudinal structure with a uniform or varying cross section. The lenticular lenses may have a laterally meandering structure. Sections of adjacent straight or meandering lenticular lenses may intersect or partially or completely overlap each other. The lenticular lenses may be in the form of discontinuous lenticular segments. The lenticular segments may have regular, symmetrical shapes, or irregular, asymmetrical shapes, which may be intersecting or overlapping, and may be textured. The lens structure may be provided with isolated ripples, in the form of a single knot, or a series of knots.
