  • Publication number: 20240103319
    Abstract: The invention refers to a diffusion plate and a backlight module having the diffusion plate. The diffusion plate comprises a plate-body and a plurality of pyramid-like structures arranged on a surface of the plate-body. Each pyramid-like structure has a bottom surface, a first convex portion and a second convex portion. The first convex portion and the second convex portion have different vertex angles, and therefore the pyramid-like structure can also be called as “pyramid-like structure with multiple vertex angles”. The pyramid-like structures with multiple vertex angles can increase the light splitting points, which can improve the light splitting effect of the diffusion plate. The light source of a single light-emitting diode can be divided into eight point-light sources (light splitting points) or more, which is double the number of light splitting points compared with the traditional pyramid structure with single vertex, and thus can greatly improve the light diffusion effect.

  • Patent number: 8899815
    Abstract: A uniform reflective light-guide for accompanying an edge light source to form a backlight module for an LCD display includes a light-guiding layer and a reflective layer. The light-guiding layer further defines a light-introducing surface and a light-exiting surface. The light-introducing surface is to allow lights emitted from the edge light source to enter the light-guiding layer. The light-exiting surface perpendicular to the light-introducing surface is to allow at least a portion of the lights to leave the light-guiding layer. The reflective layer is to reflect the incident lights back to the light-guiding layer. The reflective layer and the light-guiding layer are manufactured integrally into a unique piece by a co-extrusion process so as to avoid possible existence of an air spacing in between. A reflective surface is defined to interface the reflective layer and the light-guiding layer, and a three-dimensional micro-structure is constructed on the reflective surface.

  • Publication number: 20130063682
    Abstract: An optical film is to attach on a light-incident surface of a light guide plate which cooperates with a plurality of side-light sources in order to form a backlight module. A plurality of specially designed micro-structures is formed on the optical film to better deflect the light generated by the side-light sources before the light enters the light guide plate. Such that, by having the optical film, the dark areas of the light guide plate can be reduced, the effective visual area of the LCD device can be enlarged, and the number of side-light sources as well as the cost for producing the backlight module and the LCD device can be substantially reduced.
