Diffusion sheet 13 is provided with a symmetric prism 14.Example as symmetric prism 14 is BEF (trade name, Sumitomo 3M).Symmetric prism 14 has a plurality of outshots of prism shape in its surface, and the ridge that is configured such that described outshot is along the direct of travel from the light of light source.By this mode, this symmetric prism can be at left side and the right side control light from the direct of travel of the light of light source.Thereby, by symmetric prism 14 is provided, can collects characteristic improving light, thereby improve brightness from the left side of the direct of travel of the light of light source and right side.Therefore, use sheet 14 further to improve brightness in vertical direction with asymmetric prism sheet (afterwards describe) and improve brightness on each wide view directions.
Symmetric prism 14 is provided with an asymmetric prism sheet 15, and it improves device as the luminance/luminance visual angle.Specifically, asymmetric prism sheet 15 has structure as shown in Figure 3.Fig. 3 has shown the part according to the prismatic lens of the backlight device of the embodiment of the invention.
Asymmetric prism sheet 15 has a plurality of outshots 17, and described outshot has prism shape in its surface.Outshot 17 comprises first inclined surface (slow slope inclination surface) 17a and second inclined surface with relative steep slope (steep slope inclined surface) 17b with relatively little slope.Base angle 17d on second surface 17b one side is α °, and the base angle 17c on first surface 17a one side is β °.The ridge of outshot 17 is configured to along the direction (being the depth direction of this sheet when seeing in the drawings) that is basically perpendicular to from the direct of travel of the light of light source.In other words, asymmetric prism sheet 15 is arranged so that the ridge of outshot 17 is basically perpendicular to the ridge of symmetric prism outshot.Thereby asymmetric prism sheet 15 is controlled light on the direct of travel from the light of light source.
When light from basal surface 15a (optical plate 11) when entering asymmetric prism sheet 15 with said structure, described light is mainly gone up emission (seeing arrow X) in vertical substantially direction (with respect to the vertical direction low-angle relatively direction that tilts) in the first inclined surface 17a, and in the second inclined surface 17b mainly in an inclined direction (with respect to the tilt direction of relative wide-angle of vertical direction) go up emission (seeing arrow Y).
Hope is arranged to base angle mainly to launch light on vertical substantially direction with β, mainly in an inclined direction launches light simultaneously, just as described above.Described vergence direction is determined at brightness visual angle according to backlight device.
For base angle and β, the scope of wishing angle [alpha] is from 75 ° to 90 °, and the scope of angle beta is preferably from 45 ° to 60 °.In addition, for the combination of base angle and β, for example preferably angle [alpha] is that 85 °, base angle β are 50 °.
The preferred material of asymmetric prism sheet 15 is to have 1.4 to 1.6 refractive index materials.The examples of material of asymmetric prism sheet 15 comprises resin material, as based on the third rare resin, based on the resin and the polycarbonate of norborene.
On the direction opposite of optical plate 11, (side of diffusion sheet 13 is not set) and is provided with a reflector plate 16 with liquid crystal cell side.
Below with reference to the function of Figure 4 and 5 specific descriptions according to the asymmetric prism sheet in the backlight device of the present invention.Figure 4 and 5 are the views that are used for explaining the light path of prismatic lens shown in Figure 3.In addition, in Figure 4 and 5, be provided with the LED as light source on the left of the observer, light is advanced on the direction from left to right that the observer watched.
As shown in Figure 4, reflected by the basal surface 15a of asymmetric prism sheet 15 with the light A that angle θ 1 incides on the asymmetric prism sheet 15 with respect to vertical direction, and then be highlighted the first inclined surface 17a refraction of part 17, and launch from asymmetric prism sheet 15 towards liquid crystal cells.At this moment, because the base angle of outshot 17 is positioned at light source side, so light emitted have angle θ 2 with respect to vertical direction.Thereby light launches on vertical substantially direction, promoted that therefore brightness in vertical direction improves.
In this case, following equation (1) has been represented the relation between incident angle θ 1, emergence angle θ 2, base angle and the base angle β:
θ 2=β+sin -1[n1xsin{ β-sin -1(sin θ 1)/n1}] equation (1)
Wherein n1 represents the refractive index of asymmetric prism sheet.
In addition, as shown in Figure 5, reflected by the basal surface 15a of asymmetric prism sheet 15 with the light B that angle θ 1 ' incides on the asymmetric prism sheet 15 with respect to vertical direction, and then the first inclined surface 17a that is highlighted part 17 reflects, launch then by second inclined surface 17b refraction, and from asymmetric prism sheet 15 towards liquid crystal cells.At this moment, because the base angle of outshot 17 is positioned on the light source side, so light emitted have angle θ 2 ' with respect to vertical direction.Thereby light in an inclined direction launches, and therefore promoted the raising at wide brightness visual angle.
In this case, following equation (2) has been represented the relation between incident angle θ 1 ', emergence angle θ 2 ', base angle and the base angle β:
θ 2 '=-α+sin -1[n1xsin{ α+2 β-180-sin -1(sin θ 1 ')/n1}] equation (2)
Wherein n1 represents the refractive index of asymmetric prism sheet.
Therefore, in the situation of the base angle of the outshot 17 of determining asymmetric prism sheet 15 and β, consider emergence angle θ 2 and θ 2 ', wish to determine described angle according to above-mentioned equation (1) and (2).Especially, because the brightness visual angle is arbitrarily, therefore wish to determine base angle and β according to angle θ 2 '.
