[embodiment]
Please see Figure 2, the module backlight 20 of embodiment of the present invention comprises a light guide plate of being made by transparent material 22, a light source 24, a light source cover 25, a quarter wave plate 23, upwards a prism plate 26 and a downward prism plate 28.Light guide plate 22 comprises a light entrance face 221 and one and light entrance face 221 light-emitting face 222 and bottom surface 223 that intersect, light source 24 is positioned at light guide plate 22 light entrance faces 221 1 sides, light source cover 25 reflection sources 24 emergent lights are gone into this light guide plate 22, upwards prism plate 26 is arranged on light guide plate 22 light-emitting faces 222, prism plate 28 is positioned at upwards prism plate 26 face away from light guide 22 1 sides downwards, quarter wave plate 23 is arranged at bottom surface 223 1 sides of light guide plate 22, and its face away from light guide 22 1 side bottom surfaces 232 are coated with reflectance coating.
Light guide plate 22 roughly becomes a rectangular parallelepiped, this light entrance face 221 is perpendicular to bottom surface 223 and light-emitting face 222, and further comprise first side (figure do not show), with first side second side surface opposite (scheming not show) and three side 226 relative with the plane of incidence 222, for making light from exit facet 222 even outgoing, usually 223 be provided with a plurality of sites (figure do not show) in the bottom surface, can there be the distribution of multiple kenel this site, and, be coated with anti-reflective film to reduce the absorption loss of luminous energy in this plane of incidence 221 and exit facet 222 for improving the light utilization ratio.Light guide plate 22 and this light source 24 and the angled setting of combination of light sources that light source cover 25 constitutes, make the combination of light sources outgoing to the directional light of light guide plate 22 with predetermined direction and position from 222 outgoing of light guide plate 22 exit facets.Usually, this light guide plate also can be a sphenoid, and to be that its bottom surface and the plane of incidence acutangulate crossing with rectangular parallelepiped light guide plate difference.
Upwards prism plate 26 face away from light guide 22 1 side surfaces evenly are provided with a plurality of upwards microprisms 262 continuously, this downward prism plate 28 comprises a brightness enhancement film 284 and an a plurality of downward microprism 282 from the extension of brightness enhancement film 284 one, and be meshing with each other with a plurality of upwards microprisms 262, be reserved with certain intervals 29 between the surface 263,283 relatively for 262,282 liang in these a plurality of upwards, downward microprisms, these are a plurality of upwards, the bottom side length of microprism 262,282 is 450 to 550 microns downwards, and height is 200 to 250 microns.Certainly, light guide plate 22 size differences, it is different that this bottom side length and high design also have, and decides on specific requirement.
Please see Figure 3, when unpolarized natural light from a kind of index medium n 0Enter into another kind of index medium n 1The time, reflection of light and refraction will take place in faying face simultaneously that join at two kinds of materials, suppose that incident angle is θ 0, the refraction angle is θ 1, the incident medium refractive index is n 0, the emergent medium refractive index is n 1, the light intensity reflectivity of P direction polarized light and S direction polarized light is respectively R in the reflected light p, R s, R then p, R sCan use following formulate respectively:
R p＝{n 1/cosθ 0-n 0/cosθ 1} 2/{n 1/cosθ 0+n 0/cosθ 1} 2
Rs＝{n 0/cosθ 0-n 1/cosθ 1} 2/{n 0/cosθ 0+n 1/cosθ 1} 2
Can draw, along with incident angle θ 0Increase, the light intensity reflectivity R of S direction polarized light sTotal dull rising, and the light intensity reflectivity R of P direction polarized light pDescended before this, at incident angle θ 0Arrive a certain special angle θ BThe time, P direction polarized light reflectivity is reduced to zero, this incident angle θ BBe called as Brewster angle, can derive draws θ BExpression formula be:
θ B＝tan -1n 0/n 1
So, when natural light with Brewster angle θ BDuring incident, reflected light is the complete linearly polarized light of S direction always, and for refract light, includes P direction polarized light about 92% and about 8% S direction polarized light.
Please see Fig. 2 in the lump, for making from light guide plate 22 light-emitting faces 222 emergent lights with Brewster angle θ BBe incident to a plurality of upwards microprisms 263, these are a plurality of upwards, microprism 262,282 drift angles are arranged between 125 ° to 145 ° downwards, are preferably 135 °; A plurality of upwards, downwards microprism 262,282 and therebetween the refringence of 29 of airspaces between 0.001 to 0.2.Thus, when light guide plate 22 emergent lights with Brewster angle θ BFrom these a plurality of upwards microprism 262 outgoing 29 o'clock extremely at interval, reflected light is the complete linearly polarized light of S direction, and refract light is the partial poolarized light of P direction, again by 29 outgoing at interval to these a plurality of downward microprisms 282, S direction polarized light is continued reflection, and P direction polarized light is continued refraction, at this moment, it is just very faint to arrive in the light beam of downward prism plate 28 S direction polarized light, is almost the complete linearly polarized light of 100%P direction.By a plurality of upwards, the S direction polarized light of microprism 262,282 reflections downwards is incident to quarter wave plate 23 through light guide plate 22, via quarter wave plate 23 bottom surfaces 232 reflected back quarter wave plates, S direction polarized light passes through quarter wave plate 23 twice, its polarization direction is rotated by 90 degrees and becomes complete polarized light reflected back light guide plate 22 on the P direction, via light guide plate 22 again outgoing to prism plate 26 upwards and prism plate 28 downwards, the P direction polarized light of this bundle reflected back and the aforementioned P direction polarized light combination that reflects provide liquid crystal indicator required bright area source by brightness enhancement film 284.
Please see Figure 4, liquid crystal indicator 30 of the present invention comprises a thin film transistor (TFT) (Thin Film Transistor, TFT) glass substrate 32, a colored filter (Color Filter, CF) liquid crystal molecule 34, two of 33 of glass substrate 33, a plurality of TFT of being positioned at glass substrate 32 and CF glass substrates is positioned the Polarizer 35,35 ' of TFT glass substrate 32 and CF glass substrate 33 both sides respectively, this two Polarizer 35,35 ' vertical mutually setting of optical direction, and the module backlight 20 that is provided with of contiguous TFT glass substrate 32 1 lateral deviation tabula rasas 35.
In the embodiment of the present invention, these are a plurality of upwards, 262,282 of microprisms can not keep interval 29 downwards, and refringence is arranged between 0.001 to 0.2 therebetween, light guide plate 22 emergent lights directly enter a plurality of downward microprisms 282 via these a plurality of upwards microprisms 262, P direction polarized light is refracted, S direction polarized light is reflected, and be converted to P direction polarized light via quarter wave plate 23 and enter a plurality of downward microprisms 282, therefore, also can provide the high efficiency efficiency of light energy utilization, improve the briliancy of liquid crystal indicator 30, realize the technical matters that the present invention solves.
The present invention utilizes upper and lower a plurality of microprism 262,282 that natural light is converted into the complete linearly polarized light of P direction and the complete linearly polarized light of S direction, and the complete linearly polarized light of P direction is directly from prism plate 28 transmissions downwards, and the complete linearly polarized light secondary of S direction is converted into the complete linearly polarized light of P direction fully from prism plate 28 outgoing downwards through quarter wave plate 23, light source 100% is utilized, and the complete linearly polarized light of two groups of P directions converges through brightness enhancement film 284 outgoing, has further improved the outgoing briliancy of module backlight and liquid crystal indicator.
