The specific embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, in the present embodiment, energy-saving module backlight of the present invention comprises first light source 10, secondary light source and LGP member 30.Wherein, LGP member 30 comprises first LGP 31 and second LGP 32.LGP member 30 in the present embodiment is the fabricated structures that formed by first LGP 31 and 32 assemblings of second LGP.This LGP member 30 can be integrated overall structure also in other embodiment, comprises first LGP 31 and second LGP, 32 two parts.First light source 10 is a collimated light source, for example LED or LASER Light Source.First light source 10 is arranged on the side-walls of first LGP 31, can launch the light beam of high collimation along z direction shown in Figure 1, and this light beam gets in first LGP 31 then.Secondary light source is a ultraviolet source, is arranged on the below of first LGP 31, can send ultraviolet light, black light and/or extreme ultraviolet light to first LGP 31, and the angle of divergence of the light that it sends meets conventional Lambertian emitter characteristic.Secondary light source can be a ultraviolet source or combined by a plurality of ultraviolet sources that the secondary light source of present embodiment comprises 3 ultraviolet sources, like ultraviolet source 21.
First LGP 31 has the bottom surface of inclination, this bottom surface perpendicular to yz plane shown in Figure 1 and with the angle on xz plane shown in Figure 1 be α (referring to Fig. 2).First LGP 31 has the end face of inclination, this end face perpendicular to xy plane shown in Figure 1 and with the angle G on xz plane shown in Figure 1 be 45 ° (referring to Fig. 3).Second LGP 32 has the bottom surface of inclination, this bottom surface perpendicular to xy plane shown in Figure 1 and with the angle on xz plane shown in Figure 1 be θ (referring to Fig. 3).The end face of second LGP 32 is parallel to xz plane (referring to Fig. 3) shown in Figure 1.
Have first micro-structural on first LGP 31, as shown in Figure 2, first micro-structural is arranged on the bottom surface of first LGP 31.In the present embodiment, first micro-structural is a plurality of V-shaped grooves, like V-shaped groove 41,42.The parameter of these V-shaped grooves comprises: interval P, angle of inclination beta and inclination angle γ, can realize different optical effects through adjusting these parameters, and for example in the present embodiment, it is 90 ° that γ is set.Like this, after the light that first light source 10 sends got into first LGP 31, its each several part will be respectively by each V-shaped groove reflection of first micro-structural.For example, light L1 shines V-shaped groove 41 backs by V-shaped groove 41 reflections, and light L2 shines V-shaped groove 42 backs by V-shaped groove 42 reflections, and light L3 does not shine any V-shaped groove, will continue to propagate along the z direction.This shows that the light that first light source 10 sends is wire after through first micro-structural and distributes, and has promptly formed line source (first light source 10 can be regarded spot light as).These light by each V-shaped groove reflection of first micro-structural will be propagated along the y direction, then by the reflection of the end face of first LGP 31, become along the x direction and will propagate and get into then second LGP 32.
Have second micro-structural on second LGP 32, as shown in Figure 3, second micro-structural is arranged on the bottom surface of second LGP 32.In the present embodiment, second micro-structural is the microprism of a plurality of Discrete Distribution, like microprism 51,52.In the present embodiment, microprism is that the processing base station is made with the ultraprecise, has identical structural parameters and makes periodic arrangement.As shown in Figure 4, the parameter of these microprisms comprises: bottom width D1, the long D2 in the end, inclination angle Φ and interval S 1, can realize different optical effects through adjusting these parameters.Like this, get into second LGP 32 from the light of first LGP 31 after, its each several part will be respectively by each microprism reflection of second micro-structural.For example, light L31 shines microprism 51 backs by microprism 51 reflections, and light L32 shines microprism 52 backs by microprism 52 reflections.This shows, be planar distribution after through second micro-structural, promptly formed area source from the light that wire distributes of being of first LGP 31, and because the machining accuracy of the microprism of second micro-structural is high, so this area source has very high light-emitting uniformity.These will be propagated along the y direction by the light of the microprism of second micro-structural reflection, leave the 32 outside outgoing of second LGP.Because the light of these outgoing has kept good collimation, therefore the LCD of this moment will show as and have less visible angle.Promptly when first light source 10 of opening energy-saving module backlight of the present invention and when closing secondary light source, energy-saving module backlight of the present invention can make LCD have first visible angle, and this first visible angle is ± (5 °-10 °).
When first light source 10 of closing energy-saving module backlight of the present invention and when opening secondary light source, energy-saving module backlight of the present invention can make LCD have second visible angle.As shown in Figure 5, first light source 10 is closed, secondary light source work, and for example the ultraviolet source 21 of secondary light source sends ultraviolet light.This ultraviolet light gets into first LGP 31 and is reflected by the end face of first LGP 31, thereby is coupled into second LGP 32.Based on this law like this, this ultraviolet light is propagated in leading tabula rasa, when running into fluorescent material and apply pattern, with exciting this fluorescent material to apply the fluorescent material of pattern, makes it send white light.It is the fluorescent material application point of a plurality of Discrete Distribution that fluorescent material in the present embodiment applies pattern, is arranged on the bottom surface of second LGP 32 the fluorescent material application point 61,62 shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6.Wherein, the ultraviolet lighting of propagating in second LGP 32 has been mapped to fluorescent material application point 61, thereby the fluorescent material in the fluorescent material application point 61 is excited and sends white light, and ultraviolet light does not shine fluorescent material application point 62, thereby fluorescent material application point 62 is not luminous.Fluorescent material applies pattern and is excited the white light that sends from the outside outgoing of the end face of second LGP 32.In other embodiments, fluorescent material applies pattern and also can be arranged on the end face of second LGP 32 the outside outgoing of end face that its white light that sends leaves second LGP 32.Since fluorescent material apply pattern be excited the white light that sends dispersion angle comparatively at random, so the LCD of this moment has bigger visible angle.Promptly when the secondary light source of opening energy-saving module backlight of the present invention and when closing first light source 10, energy-saving module backlight of the present invention can make LCD have second visible angle, and this second visible angle is ± (60 °-70 °).
More than describe preferred embodiment of the present invention in detail.Should be appreciated that those of ordinary skill in the art need not creative work and just can design according to the present invention make many modifications and variation.Therefore, the technical staff in all present technique field all should be in the determined protection domain by claims under this invention's idea on the basis of existing technology through the available technical scheme of logical analysis, reasoning, or a limited experiment.
