Background technology
In recent years, most display screen is a main flow with display panels (Liquid Crystal Display panel, LCD panel) all.Yet, because display panels itself does not have luminous function, thus below display panels, must provide a module backlight (Back light module) so that light source to be provided, and then reach the function of demonstration.Lamp source in the module backlight generally is that luminous lamp tube provides, and the light that fluorescent tube sent is again by the blooming piece in the module backlight and after carrying out scattering, forms an area source that is suitable for the irradiating liquid crystal display floater.
But, if can directly utilize planar lamp source, then can promote the utilization ratio of light and uniform surface light source more, and planar lamp source is except the backlight that can be applied to display panels, also can be applicable on many other fields.Therefore, planar lamp source has the advantage of its development.
Generally speaking, planar lamp source is a kind of luminescence of plasma element, and it mainly is to utilize to form a high voltage differential with the generation high energy electron between electrode pair, and clashes into inert gas (inert gas) and form so-called plasma via high energy electron.Afterwards, the excite state atom that is excited in the plasma can discharge energy to radiate ultraviolet mode, and the fluorescent material (phosphor) in the further excitation plane lamp of the ultraviolet ray meeting source of being radiated, to send visible light.
Yet the brightness around it of present planar lamp source is obviously dark or present the color of non-white light.This be because, in the edge of planar lamp source because of the luminous efficiency of fluorescent material luminous efficiency not as the center of planar lamp source.Therefore, the brightness around the planar lamp source is always darker.
