摘要: Low profile, side-emitting LEDs are described that generate white light, where all light is emitted within a relatively narrow angle generally parallel to the surface of the light-generating active layer. The LEDs enable the creation of very thin backlights for backlighting an LCD. In one embodiment, the LED emits blue light and is a flip chip with the n and p electrodes on the same side of the LED. Separately from the LED, a transparent wafer has deposited on it a red and green phosphor layer. The phosphor color temperature emission is tested, and the color temperatures vs. positions along the wafer are mapped. A reflector is formed over the transparent wafer. The transparent wafer is singulated, and the phosphor/window dice are matched with the blue LEDs to achieve a target white light color temperature. The phosphor/window is then affixed to the LED.

摘要: Low profile, side-emitting LEDs are described, where all light is efficiently emitted within a relatively narrow angle generally parallel to the surface of the light-generating active layer. The LEDs enable the creation of very thin backlights for backlighting an LCD. In one embodiment, the LED is a flip chip with the n and p electrodes on the same side of the LED, and the LED is mounted electrode-side down on a submount. A reflector is provided on the top surface of the LED so that light impinging on the reflector is reflected back toward the active layer and eventually exits through a side surface of the LED. A waveguide layer and/or one or more phosphors layers are deposed between the semiconductor layers and the reflector for increasing the side emission area for increased efficiency. Side-emitting LEDs with a thickness of between 0.2-0.4 mm can be created.

摘要: In an LCD, a backlight having red, green, and blue LEDs is controlled to generate monochromatic light (e,g., blue) during a portion of a cycle, such as an image frame cycle. During another portion of the cycle, all the LEDs are illuminated to create white light. The color filter in the LCD panel contains, for each white pixel, a first color (e.g., red) subpixel filter, a second color (e.g., green) subpixel filter, and a clear subpixel area for passing white light and the monochromatic. The liquid crystal layer shutters are controlled to pass from 0-100% of the light for their associated subpixels to create a color image. With proper control of the shutters, any desired color of each white pixel can be achieved during the cycle. By converting one color filter to a clear area, the transmission efficiency of the display is greatly increased.

摘要: A white light LED for use in backlighting or otherwise illuminating an LCD is described where the white light LED comprises a blue LED over which is affixed a preformed red phosphor platelet and a preformed green phosphor platelet. In one embodiment, to form a platelet, a controlled amount of phosphor powder is placed in a mold and heated under pressure to sinter the grains together. The platelet can be made very smooth on all surfaces. A UV LED may also be used in conjunction with red, green, and blue phosphor plates. The LED dies vary in color and brightness and are binned in accordance with their light output characteristics. Phosphor plates with different characteristics are matched to the binned LEDs to create white light LEDs with a consistent white point for use in backlights for liquid crystal displays.

摘要: Various embodiments of corner-coupled backlights are described, where one or more white light LEDs are optically coupled to a truncated corner edge of a solid rectangular light guide backlight. The one or more LEDs are mounted in a small reflective cavity, whose output opening is coupled to the truncated corner of the light guide. The reflective cavity provides a more uniform light distribution at a wide variety of angles to the face of the truncated corner to better distribute light throughout the entire light guide volume. To enable a thinner light guide, the LED die is positioned in the reflective cavity so that the major light emitting surface of the LED is parallel to the top surface of the light guide. The reflective cavity reflects the upward LED light toward the edge of the light guide.

摘要: Various embodiments of corner-coupled backlights are described, where one or more LEDs are optically coupled to a truncated corner of a solid rectangular light guide backlight. In one embodiment, a high-power, white light LED is mounted in a small reflective cavity, which is then coupled to a flattened corner of the light guide. The reflective cavity provides a more uniform light distribution at a wide variety of angles to the face of the truncated corner to better distribute light throughout the entire light guide volume. This creates a more uniform light guide emission into the liquid crystal layers. In other embodiments, an LED is mounted in a small cavity near a corner of the light guide, and a reflector is mounted on the corner of the light guide. Various techniques for removing heat from the LED without adding additional area requirements are also disclosed.
