  • Publication number: 20120300490
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display panel which receives a light and displays an image, a bottom chassis which accommodates the display panel, and a top chassis which faces the bottom chassis with the display panel therebetween. The top chassis overlaps a portion of the display panel and includes a first thru-hole which extends through a thickness of a side portion thereof. The display apparatus includes a printed circuit board and a coupling member. The printed circuit board applies an electrical signal to the display panel, is under the side portion, and includes a second thru-hole which corresponds to the first thru-hole. The coupling member extends through the first thru-hole and the second thru-hole, and couples the top chassis and the printed circuit board to each other.

  • Patent number: 8297823
    Abstract: A backlight assembly includes a plurality of point light sources, a light guide plate (“LGP”) and a printed circuit board (“PCB”). The LGP has a light incident face in which light is incident, a side surface extending from an edge portion of the light incident face, and a fixing groove which is formed from the side surface toward an inner portion thereof. The PCB includes a point light source disposing portion in which the point light sources are disposed along a first direction, an extending portion extending from the point light disposing portion along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, and a protrusion which is fixed at an end portion of the extending portion. The protrusion of the PCB is coupled with the fixing groove of the LGP.

  • Publication number: 20120075552
    Abstract: A backlight assembly includes a light source part, a light guide plate, a container, and a support member. The light source part has a light emitting surface to emit light, and the light guide plate has a light incident surface to guide light. The container includes a bottom portion and sidewalls to receive the light source part and the light guide plate. The support member pushes the light guide plate toward the bottom portion to more closely maintain the position of the light incident surface with respect to the light emitting surface. This helps to prevent misalignment between the light exist surface and the light incident surface, maintaining the quantity of light supplied to the light guide plate.

  • Patent number: 7615248
    Abstract: Provided are a method for preparing a blue-emitting BAM phosphor which includes: surface-treating phosphor particles with metal oxide nanoparticles, and a blue-emitting BAM phosphor prepared by the method. The blue-emitting BAM phosphor exhibits better dispersibility and flowability in coating slurry without undergoing a reduction in initial brightness, thereby providing less color variation at ends of a BLU lamp. The blue-emitting BAM phosphor can be directly applied in a currently available method of manufacturing a BLU lamp, and when mixed with existing red and green phosphors, can remarkably reduce color variation at ends of a lamp. Therefore, the quality of a BLU lamp for large-scale displays can be greatly improved.

  • Publication number: 20050179009
    Abstract: Provided are a novel blue BAM phosphor and a preparation method thereof. In the blue-emitting phosphor, a magnetoplumbite phase is epitaxially formed as a protection film on the ?-phase of a blue BAM phosphor. The blue-emitting phosphor has high luminosity and broad color gamut, is invulnerable to mechanical damage, and can create uniform images, and thus, is very useful in fabrication of a high quality plasma display panel.
