  • Publication number: 20220078381
    Abstract: An object of the present technology is to provide a technology for processing light that reaches a light shielding plate that defines a reachable range of light to a panel unit. The present technology provides a spatial light modulation module including: a panel unit that forms image display light; and a light shielding plate that defines an illumination light reachable range of the panel unit, in which at least a part of an illumination light reachable surface of the light shielding plate is inclined with respect to a reflection surface of the panel unit. It is preferable that at least a part of the illumination light reachable surface reflects the illumination light. Furthermore, the present technology also provides a spatial light modulation element and a light shielding plate included in the module. Furthermore, the present technology also provides a projection type display device including the module.

  • Patent number: 8120726
    Abstract: There is provided a surface light source device having a configuration where light sources are arranged on both of a pair of side surfaces of a light guide plate and allowed to independently form nonuniform light emission intensity distributions in which light emission intensity is lower and higher at places closer to and farther from each of the light sources. Light guide control sections controlling guiding of light from light sources are arranged on a reflection surface of a light guide plate. The light guide control section is configured of concave sections, and the concave sections include inclined surfaces facing the light source and inclined surfaces facing the light source, respectively, and the heights of the concave sections increase with increasing distance from the light source. A nonuniform light emission intensity distribution in which light emission intensity is lower and higher at places closer to and farther from the light source is formed by lighting of the light source.

  • Patent number: 6840310
    Abstract: The present invention provides a cooling device having improved cooling performance and providing higher flexibility, an electronic apparatus and an acoustic apparatus employing the cooling device, and a method for producing the cooling device. The cooling device is provided with an evaporator that is capable of cooling an object to be cooled, and a condenser that is capable of releasing to the outside heat that has been absorbed during the cooling by the evaporator. A vapor-phase conduit and a liquid-phase conduit, both of which are made of fluorocarbon resin and through which an operating medium flows, are disposed between and coupled to the evaporator and the condenser, thereby circulating the operating medium.
