  • Patent number: 8449162
    Abstract: A backlight module includes a light guide plate, an optical film set, and at least one light emitting element. The light guide plate has a first light-emitting surface, a bottom surface, and a first light incident surface. The optical film set on the first light-emitting surface includes at least one optical film having a second light incident surface, a second light-emitting surface, and a side surface. The side surface of the optical film and the first light incident surface of the light guide plate are at the same side, and at least one notch is disposed on the side surface. The light emitting element is adjacent to the first light incident surface and capable of emitting a light beam. The light beam is capable of entering the light guide plate through the first light incident surface and being transmitted to the optical film set via the first light-emitting surface.

  • Publication number: 20130044515
    Abstract: An edge-type backlight module including a light guide plate, a reflecting element, light emitting elements, and a light absorbing element is provided. The light guide plate includes a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and at least one light incident surface. The reflecting element is disposed on the second surface and has openings disposed on a side of the reflecting element corresponding to the light incident surface. The light emitting elements are disposed beside the light incident surface and corresponding to the openings, respectively. Each light emitting element emits a light beam which enters the light guide plate via the light incident surface and is transmitted out of the light guide plate via the first surface. The light absorbing element is disposed beneath the reflecting element, supports the reflecting element, and absorbs a part of the light beams entering the openings via the light incident surface.

  • Publication number: 20120314417
    Abstract: An optical lens for modulating light generated by a surface-emitting laser chip is disclosed. The optical lens includes a main body with a recess. A bottom surface of the recess is configured with a light-entering curved face, and an outer surface of the main body opposite to the bottom surface is configured with a light-existing curved face. Here, the recess is for accommodating the surface-emitting laser chip, and the surface-emitting laser chip is arranged a distance from the light-entering curved face. A light-emitting module adopting the aforementioned optical lens is also provided. The aforementioned optical lens would cause the incident light to first diverge and then converge at a predetermined angle, so that the output illuminating light is more uniform and the projecting distance is extended.
