    摘要: A light-emitting edge structure emitting light of non-uniform intensity from different regions of the edge has a uniform light emission filter provided across the light-emitting faces of the edge. The filter takes the form of an exposed photographic emulsion coated directly onto the light-emitting faces of the edge. Alternatively, the filter takes the form of a separate substrate containing the exposed photographic emulsion mounted across the light-emitting faces. The exposed emulsion is darker at regions thereof which correspond to regions of the light-emitting edge faces with higher original light intensity and lighter at regions thereof which correspond to regions of the light-emitting edge faces with lower original light intensity. The final exposed emulsion reduces the original non-uniform intensity of the light from the different regions of the light-emitting faces to a uniform level equal to that of the lowest original light intensity of the light-emitting faces. A focussing lens can be combined with the edge emitter structure. The filter emulsion is exposed so as to compensate not only for non-uniformity of light intensity of the structure but also for optical non-uniformities of the lens.

    摘要: A thin electroluminescent edge emitter structure having an integral beam-shaping lens system includes a common electrode layer disposed on a layer of substrate material. A first dielectric layer is disposed on the common electrode layer, a second dielectric layer is spaced from the first dielectric layer, and a phosphor layer is interposed between the first and second dielectric layers. The phosphor layer has an edge face extending between the first and second dielectric layers. A plurality of control electrodes are disposed on the second dielectric layer, and the common electrode layer, first and second dielectric layers with the phosphor layer interposed therebetween and the plurality of control electrodes define a plurality of pixels. Each of the pixels has a light-emitting face formed from at least the phosphor layer edge face. The plurality of control electrodes and the common electrode are adapted to be connected with an excitation source for applying an excitation signal to selected pixels. The application of an excitation signal to an individual pixel caused the pixel to radiate light energy within the phosphor layer associated with the pixel in in at lease a direction towards the pixel light-emitting face. The light-emitting face of the pixel is shaped to a preselected contour to define an optical lens integral therewith to project the light energy passed therethrough in a preselected direction and form a beam of light energy having a preselected beam pattern.

    摘要: A method for defining an array of light-emitting pixels in a thin film electroluminescent edge emitter structure includes the steps of moving the structure in proximity to a stationary first laser source as the first laser source is operated to generate a plurality of first laser pulses. The plurality of first laser pulses are focused into "lines" of light energy that strike the structure at a plurality of spaced apart locations in succession to ablate a predetermined number of layers of the structure. This ablation process forms a plurality of spaced apart channels in the structure. The portions of the structure remaining between each pair of adjacent channels define an array of pixels in the structure. The structure having the pixels formed therein is moved in proximity to a second laser source. The second laser source is movable in a selected direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the struc­ture. The second laser source provides a second laser beam that is focused to a "point" of light energy which strikes the end portion of each pixel at an area inward of the pixel edge surface to ablate a predetermined number of layers at each pixel end portion. The movement of the second laser beam is controlled relative to the movement of the structure to correspondingly control the amount of material ablated inward of the edge surface of each pixel to remove the pixel edge surface and form a new pixel edge surface shaped to a preselected contour.

    摘要: A thin film electroluminescent edge emitter assembly [Fig. 1 (10)] includes an edge emitter structure (12, 16, 18) disposed on a layer of substrate material (14). The structure has a configuration to define a linear array of spaced-apart, light-emitting pixels (32). A packaging assembly [Figs. 1, 2 (12)] surrounds at least a portion of the edge emitter structure to enclose the linear array of light-emitting pixels in a contaminant-­free environment. At least the wall (54) of the packaging assembly adjacent to the array of pixels is made from a translucent material to permit light energy emitted by selected pixels of the array interior to the packaging assembly to pass through the wall of the packaging assembly.

    摘要: A thin film electroluminescent edge emitter structure operable as an electronically controlled, high resolution light source includes a plurality of TFEL assemblies disposed in array-like fashion on a layer of substrate material. Each TFEL assembly includes a first layer of electrically conductive material, a second layer of electrically conductive material spaced from the first electrically conductive layer and an electrically energizable, light-emitting composite layer interposed therebetween. At least the second electrically conductive layer of each TFEL assembly is segmented to provide a plurality of second electrically conductive elements, and the plurality of second electrically conductive elements in combination with the remaining layers of the assembly form a pixel group including a plurality of individual light-emitting pixels. The portion of the light-emitting, composite layer associated with an individual pixel of a particular pixel group is operable to emit light energy at the light-emitting face of the individual pixel when a first electrical signal is applied to the first electri­cally conductive layer which is common to the pixel group simultaneously with the application of a second electrical signal to the individual pixel second electrically conductive element.

    摘要: An electrophotographic-type imaging station or printer includes a focusing lens positioned between the printer light source and a photosensitive medium. As the light source projects beams of light energy forming a row in a direction towards the photosensitive medium, the lens focuses each projected beam into a rectangular beam. The speed of the photosensitive medium and the operation of the light source are coordinated so that adjacent rows of generally rectangular beams are positioned in abutting relation with each other. The plurality of focused rows projected in row-at-a-time fashion onto the surface of the photosensitive medium form an informational array pattern having a resolution in a direction parallel with the direction of medium movement which is greater than the resolution of the pattern in a direction perpendicular to the direction of medium movement. By forming an informational array pattern in this manner, a desired informational array pattern gray scale may be achieved without a loss in the original resolution of the array pattern taken in a direction perpendicular to the direction of medium movement.
