Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a brightness equalizing sheet, which has a uniform brightness surface formed by transmission of light from a light source, minimizes the loss of light source energy and can be applied even to a small-sized device, by providing on the surface of a light transmittable sheet a coating layer having fine bubbles dispersed unevenly in density corresponding to a level of illumination from a light source. CONSTITUTION:It is preferable that fine bubbles in a coating layer are formed by gas evolved by directing light to a photodecomposable compound. Examples of a photodecomposable compound include compounds which are conventionally used for vesicular photograph. A solution containing this compound and a desired resin is applied to a light transmittable sheet and then dried thereon. Subsequently, light is directed from a light source by using a device to be practially used or a dummy device to decompose said compound and, thereafter, the compound is heated to generate bubbles and then cooled to fix the bubbles. Then, light is uniformly directed on the entire surface of the coating layer to decompose the surplus photodecomposable compound so as to disperse and remove gas without allowing it to bubble, thus obtaining a sheet having photoreflectable fine bubbles in density proportional to a level of illumination from a light source.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a liquid crystal display device or an exposure device such as a copying machine, in order to prevent uneven brightness and uneven exposure, methods such as increasing the number of light sources and devising the shape of a reflecting plate have been tried. ing. However, these methods have a problem that they become an obstacle in making the device lighter and smaller. Therefore, in consideration of the distance from the light source, the light-transmitting sheet is provided with light-shielding points, lines, bands, etc., and the light from the light source is passed through this sheet to obtain a uniform luminance surface. Proposed. However, although this method does not hinder the downsizing of the device, it is not always sufficient to make the brightness uniform. Further, a method has been proposed in which a positive sheet coated with a resin layer containing a silver salt is exposed and developed under the same conditions and light sources as in actual use to obtain a sheet having uniform brightness. However, this method of distributing a black substance such as a silver salt on the surface of the sheet has a drawback in that the absorption of light causes a loss of energy of the light source and the absorption of energy causes a rise in the sheet temperature. . Further, a method of distributing a light-reflecting material such as aluminum foil on the surface of the sheet is also known, but this method is difficult to distribute the aluminum foil or the like in a minute manner, and thus a sufficiently satisfactory brightness is obtained. Is difficult to obtain.

In this way, on the surface of the translucent sheet,
The brightness uniformizing sheet of the present invention is obtained in which a coating layer having fine bubbles non-uniformly dispersed at a density according to the intensity of illuminance from a light source is provided. When the sheet is used again on the entire surface of the light source, the surface luminance after passing through the sheet becomes uniform because the light-reflecting fine bubbles having the density proportional to the illuminance from the light source are present. This is because, for example, in a bubble photo film, the surface illuminance at the time of exposure and the light projection density (Log non-foaming layer transmitted light intensity / foamed layer transmitted light intensity) of the bubble generating film generated thereby are in a substantially proportional relationship [[ Journal of the Photographic Society of Japan, "Vol. 41, No. 3, pp. 178-183 (1978)]. Further, in order to effectively utilize the reflected light from the surface of the sheet of the present invention, it is of course possible to provide a light reflecting plate on the back surface of the light source. As a result, the effect of increasing the energy efficiency of the light source, which is one of the features of the present invention, can be expected.
