Description

Module backlight
[technical field]
The invention relates to a kind of module backlight, particularly have the module backlight of optical grating construction light guide plate about a kind of use.
[background technology]
Module backlight in the prior art LCD comprises light source and light guide plate, the incidence surface setting of the relative light guide plate of light source, and the transmission direction that this light-guide plate guides is sent light beam from light source converts line source or pointolite to the area source outgoing.A plurality of sites that distribute, the bottom surface of this light guide plate are in order to the light beam of dispersion light-guiding board internal transmission, to improve the homogeneity of light guide plate outgoing beam.For further improving the light guide plate outgoing light homogeneity, recently, the diffraction grating technology is used to light guide plate to improve the light guide plate outgoing light homogeneity.
On Dec 30th, 1997, the United States Patent (USP) of bulletin disclosed a kind of module backlight that adopts the diffraction grating technology for the 5th, 703, No. 667.See also Fig. 1, this module 1 backlight comprises that the reflecting plate 5, of fluorescent lamp 4, the one contiguous light guide plate 2 bottom surface 2b setting that a light guide plate 2, one contiguous light guide plate 2 incidence surface 2c are provided with is arranged at the diffuser plate 6 and the prism plate 7 of light guide plate 2 exiting surface 2a one side.2b has a plurality of grating regions 3 at this 2 end of light guide plate, this grating orientation is single and be parallel to fluorescent lamp 4, and grating region 3 and non-grating region 3 in the unit length ' ratio along changing away from fluorescent lamp 4 directions, by diffraction grating structure the diffraction effect of light beam is improved this light guide plate 2 outgoing light homogeneity.Yet this patented technology exists not enough.
At first, these light guide plate 2 exiting surface 2a brightness are lower, reason is that the grating of this grating region 3 is single arrangement architecture, it is mainly to the light beam generation diffraction of incident direction perpendicular to the grating orientation, then almost can not produce diffraction to the light beam that is parallel to the grating orientation, therefore the light source utilization factor is lower, and exiting surface 2a brightness is also lower.
Secondly, 2 bottom surface 2b are to light diffraction efficiency deficiency for this light guide plate, and promptly the grating region 3 of light guide plate 2 bottom surface 2b is not a continuous distribution, and non-grating region 3 ' can not make the light generation diffraction of incident causes the outgoing light homogeneity of light guide plate exiting surface 2a to be affected.
[summary of the invention]
Die set light source utilization factor backlight is low in order to solve, the problem of outgoing light homogeneity difference, the invention provides the module backlight that a kind of bright dipping is even and light utilization is high.
The technical scheme that technical solution problem of the present invention is adopted is: a kind of module backlight is provided, it comprises a light source and a light guide plate, this light guide plate comprises an exiting surface, one bottom surface and at least one incidence surface, wherein this exiting surface and bottom surface are oppositely arranged, this incidence surface and exiting surface and bottom surface join, and exiting surface is provided with a plurality of continuous distribution and covers the transmission-type diffraction grating unit of whole exiting surface, each diffraction grating unit comprises two zones that orientation is perpendicular, wherein grating orientation in first area is perpendicular to the luminous point and the direction of line recently herein, and the orientation of second area grating is perpendicular to first area grating orientation.
Above-mentioned bottom surface of light guide plate further applies a fluorescent coating.
Compared with prior art, a plurality of transmission-type diffraction grating unit of light guide plate exiting surface in the present invention's module backlight is because orthogonal two grating regions of tool orientation, this two grating region can make the incident light generation diffraction of different directions, so light guide plate luminance is higher; The fluorescent coating of this bottom surface of light guide plate is to the amplification of light beam wavelength, make that the angle of diffraction behind the diffraction is bigger, and diffraction element continuous distribution and cover whole exiting surface, can make light guide plate exiting surface brightness unanimity everywhere promptly has sufficiently high outgoing light homogeneity.
