Abstract:
According to an aspect, a reflective liquid-crystal display device includes a liquid-crystal panel and a front light unit. The liquid-crystal panel includes a sheet-like anisotropic scattering member having low refractive index areas and high refractive index areas with a refractive index higher than that of the low refractive index areas. The front light unit includes a light guide plate laminated on the liquid-crystal panel and having a number of grooves formed on a surface facing the liquid-crystal panel at a pitch of equal to or smaller than 100 □m and a light source that makes light incident on the light guide plate. An arrangement interval of the unit pixels is larger than an average of an arrangement interval of the high refractive index area of the anisotropic scattering member.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an illumination device includes a light source, clad, and a plurality of cores. The clad includes a first edge at a light source side, a second edge opposite to the first edge, and a plurality of grooves formed by a plurality of partitions extending in parallel to each other from the first edge to the second edge. The cores are accommodated in the grooves, and each core includes an incident surface on which light from the light source is incident and an exit surface exposed from the groove to emit the light incident on the incident surface.
Abstract:
According to an aspect, a display device includes an image display panel; a planar light source including a light guide plate and an edge-lit light source that has light sources; and a controller. The controller sets luminance determination blocks by virtually dividing the image display panel in a light-source-arrangement-direction, identifies a luminance determination block with a highest luminance in the incidence direction, among luminance determination blocks at a same position in the light-source-arrangement-direction, identifies a luminance determination block the luminance of which is to be corrected by referring to luminance information of the light sources, and controls a light quantity of each of the light sources in such a manner that luminance of the identified luminance determination block is achieved.
Abstract:
According to an aspect, a display device includes: a display surface on which pixels each including sub-pixels of a plurality of colors are two-dimensionally arrayed; a reflective member; a first substrate provided with the reflective member; a second substrate arranged to face the first substrate; a color filter provided with filters of at least two colors corresponding to the sub-pixels; and a scattering member provided on the second substrate. A main viewing angle direction of the display device is a direction intersecting with the display surface. The color filter is formed such that a change in transmittance of the filters per pixel in the main viewing angle direction is smaller than a change in transmittance of the filters per pixel in a direction orthogonal to the main viewing angle direction in a direction parallel to the display surface.
