As weight reduction is progressing, development of thin devices to replace CRTs, that is, electronic display panels, is actively underway.

For example, plasma display panels, fluorescent display panels, electroluminescent panels, and liquid crystal display panels are well known. Among them, liquid crystal display panels are thin, lightweight, and easy on the eyes, and are driven by low voltage. , has the feature of low power consumption, so it is being put into practical use and research and development is active.

This liquid crystal display panel is a light-receiving display device that does not emit light on its own, similar to printed matter, and this is thought to be the reason why it does not strain the eyes, but on the other hand, it has the disadvantage that it cannot be viewed without illumination light. Therefore, when using a liquid crystal display panel, it is always necessary to consider pairing it with an illumination body or using it in combination with external light.

Conventionally, electroluminescent light sources or fluorescent lamps have been used as illumination bodies for liquid crystal display panels. However, electroluminescent light sources
A brightness of only about 30 ft-L can be obtained, which is insufficient in terms of brightness of display on the display panel. In addition, in the case of fluorescent lights, the brightness is sufficient at around 2000 ft-L, but
Because of the heat generated, it cannot be used in close contact with the display panel, and for this reason, including the illumination body increases the depth, impairing the thin feature of the display panel. In addition, fluorescent lamps have a significant reduction in brightness at the end of the bulb and have a poor space factor in terms of area. Furthermore, nearly 70% of the power consumption is emitted as heat including infrared rays, and a considerable portion of the loss is consumed in the filament electrode and its vicinity, which do not contribute to light emission. The power consumption in this filament electrode does not depend on the bulb length of the fluorescent lamp, so the shorter it is, the lower the luminance efficiency is. That is, the power required to obtain the same brightness increases, resulting in a loss of the low power consumption feature of the liquid crystal display panel.

As a light source that overcomes disadvantages in terms of power consumption, for example, cold cathode discharge lamps are used in some cases, as disclosed in the Proceedings of the National Conference of the Illuminating Engineering Society of Japan in 1981 (page 17).

Since this cold cathode discharge lamp does not require electrode heating, there is less heat loss in the electrodes, and power consumption including the lighting circuit can be reduced.Also, since the electrode structure can be simplified, the outer diameter can be further reduced. Since it becomes possible to use a small glass bulb, the reduction in brightness at the ends of the bulb can be improved, and the brightness distribution in the axial direction can also be made more uniform.

However, in the case of fluorescent lamps, flat fluorescent lamps are used as surface light sources, whereas cold cathode discharge lamps are linear light sources, so they cannot be used to uniformly illuminate the display surface of the display panel with high brightness. It is necessary to use multiple pieces arranged in parallel. For this reason, power consumption increases in proportion to the number of cold cathode discharge lamps, and in this respect, as in the case of using fluorescent lamps, the low power consumption feature of the liquid crystal display panel is lost.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reduce heat loss with a simple configuration and achieve high efficiency with low input (low power consumption) without sacrificing the effects of making the axial brightness distribution uniform. Our objective is to provide cathode discharge lamps.

Therefore, in order to achieve such an object, the present invention has an inner surface of a glass bulb with an outer diameter of 5 to 10 mm that has emission peaks in the blue region, green region, and red region, and has a color temperature of 6500〓 or more. In addition to forming a light-emitting layer, electrodes are arranged at both ends of the glass bulb so that the arc length is 400 mm or less, and the lamp current during operation is set to 2 to 10 mA.

However, if the outer diameter of the glass bulb is less than 5 mm, the tube voltage will be high, which is related to the design of the lighting circuit, making it difficult to reduce power consumption, and the discharge state will also become unstable. Beyond this, the depth of the backlight system of the display device increases.
Furthermore, when the arc length exceeds 400 mm, the tube voltage becomes high, which makes it difficult to reduce power consumption due to the design of the lighting circuit, and the discharge state becomes unstable. or,
If the lamp current becomes less than 2mA, not only will the brightness decrease, but the discharge state will also become unstable;
If it exceeds 10mA, electrode spatter will occur early and the life will be shortened. Furthermore, if the color temperature is less than 6,500, a sufficiently satisfactory sense of clarity and whiteness cannot be obtained.
Therefore, it is not preferable to deviate from the above range.

Fill with 25 torr of argon. When this cold cathode discharge lamp was lit using an inverter with an output voltage frequency of 35 to 45 KHz, the lamp current was 3 mA.
The total power consumption including the lamp power consumption was 1.2 W, and a brightness of 300 ft-L was obtained on the surface of the display board illumination body, and the brightness variation in the display portion was within ±10%.
Furthermore, there was almost no rise in temperature of the cold cathode discharge lamp, and there was no rise in temperature of the panel even when it was placed in close contact with a color liquid crystal panel. In particular, by being able to place the cold cathode discharge lamp in close contact with the color liquid crystal panel, we were able to improve the depth of the lighting body to 12 mm, which is thinner than the 16 mm that would be achieved using conventional flat fluorescent lamps. Furthermore, since the light emitting properties of the light emitting layer are matched to the transmittance properties of the color filter of the color liquid crystal panel, the light transmission efficiency can be significantly improved, the primary colors are vivid, the color reproduction range is expanded, and the display The efficiency of the device has also improved.
