  • Patent number: 11977251
    Abstract: A backlight module including a light guide plate, a light source, an upper prism sheet, and a lower prism sheet is provided. The light guide plate has a light incident surface and a light emitting surface. The upper prism sheet is disposed at a side of the light emitting surface of the light guide plate. The upper prism sheet includes an upper substrate and first prism microstructures. Cross-sections of the first prism microstructures are isosceles triangles, and apex angles thereof fall within a range of 80 to 90 degrees. The lower prism sheet is disposed between the light guide plate and the upper prism sheet. The lower prism sheet includes a lower substrate and second prism microstructures. Cross-sections of the second prism microstructures are isosceles triangles, and apex angles thereof fall within a range of 100 to 130 degrees.

  • Publication number: 20220206206
    Abstract: A backlight module including a light source, a light guide plate, an optical film set and at least one optical film layer is provided. The light guide plate has a light-incident surface and a light-emitting surface adjacent to the light-incident surface. The light source is disposed on a side of the light-incident surface and emits a light beam. The optical film set includes a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface and at least one side surface connected between the first surface and the second surface. The optical film set is disposed on a side of the light-emitting surface of the light guide plate, and the first surface faces the light-emitting surface. The optical film layer is disposed on the side surface of the optical film set. The optical film layer is a particle structure layer. A display apparatus including the backlight module is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11372282
    Abstract: A backlight module includes a back plate, an optical element set, a wavelength conversion film, a light source, and an ink layer. The optical element set is disposed on the back plate and has a first surface, a second surface and at least one end surface. The first surface faces the back plate and is opposite to the second surface. The at least one end surface is connected to the first surface and the second surface. The wavelength conversion film is disposed on the back plate. The light source is adapted to provide light, and the light is transmitted to the wavelength conversion film and the optical element set. The ink layer is disposed on the at least one end surface of the optical element set. A display device is further provided. The backlight module and the display device may reduce the phenomenon of blue edge caused by light leakage.

  • 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.
