Abstract: Embodiments of a device and a method of tuning white point values of light distributed by a backlight unit of a display device are described. The device includes a backlight unit, an image generating unit, and a patterned layer. The backlight unit includes a light source unit and an optical processing unit having a quantum dot film coupled to the light source unit. The image generating unit includes a display screen. The backlight unit is configured to distribute light to the display screen and the patterned layer is configured to tune white point values of the distributed light to a desired white point value in order to achieve substantially uniform white point values across the display screen.

Abstract: Embodiments of a display device and a method of reducing optical leakage from a backlight unit of a display device are described. The display device includes a backlight unit, an image generating unit coupled to the backlight unit and a blocking structure. The backlight unit is configured to transit light to the image generating unit and the blocking structure is configured to prevent the light from reaching the image generating unit without passing through the optical processing unit. The backlight unit includes a light source unit and an optical processing unit having a quantum dot film coupled to the light source unit. The method of reducing optical leakage from the backlight unit of the display device includes providing a first blocking structure to a portion of the light source unit and providing a second blocking structure to a portion of the optical processing unit.

Abstract: Connectors for connecting light emitting diode (LED) strip light to power are disclosed. The connectors include a housing with a first opening sized to accept an LED strip light and a second opening for a power cord or electrical leads. The openings open into an interior cavity with an internal vertical barrier to separate power and ground leads. Gripping structures proximate to the first opening retain the strip light. A gasket or gaskets within the connector seal the connector from the elements. The second opening may carry a strain relief molded to the power cord. Additionally, an adapter or nipple may be provided to connect the connector to conduit.
