    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are provided for the manufacture of coextruded polymeric multilayer optical films. The multilayer optical films have an ordered arrangement of layers of two or more materials having particular layer thicknesses and a prescribed layer thickness gradient throughout the multilayer optical stack. The methods and apparatuses described allow improved control over individual layer thicknesses, layer thickness gradients, indices of refraction, interlayer adhesion, and surface characteristics of the optical films. The methods and apparatuses described are useful for making interference polarizers, mirrors, and colored films that are optically effective over diverse portions of the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectra.

    摘要: A backlight unit (10) has a hollow cavity (16) instead of employing a light guide. One or more light sources (24a-c), such as LEDs, are arranged to emit light into the cavity, which is formed by a front (12) and a back reflector (14). The backlight is typically of the edge-lit type. The backlight can have a large area, is thin and consists of fewer components than conventional devices. Its design permits light recycling. The unit emits light of a predefined polarisation and can be arranged to have desired horizontal/vertical viewing angle properties. Light is uniformly distributed within the guide and the light output (20b, 2Od) is substantially collimated. Such backlights occupy a specific region in a parameter space defined by two parameters: first, the ratio of the output emission area to the total source emission area should lie in the range 0.0001 to 0.1; and second, the ratio of the SEP to the height of the cavity (H) should be in the range 3 to 10, where the SEP is an average plan view source separation, a special measure of the average spacing of light sources in the plane of the unit. There is also a discussion on the required number of light sources N, their arrangement near the periphery of the cavity, as well as the shape and size of the output emission area. A required minimum brightness uniformity (VESA) value to be maintained, when a subset of Madjacent sources is switched off (where M is at least 0.1 N or M>2 or both), is also disclosed. The backlight can be used for a display or for general lighting purposes.
