The present invention relates to a backlight unit.
Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a device that converts an electric signal into a light form using the characteristics of a compound semiconductor, and is used for home appliances, remote controllers, electronic displays, indicators, and various automation devices. There is a trend.
The backlight unit to which the light emitting diode is applied can be used in a display device such as a liquid crystal display device, and can be used in a lighting device in a wide variety of fields. BACKGROUND ART A backlight unit which is generally used is composed of a light source, a light guide plate for diffusing light of a light source, and an optical sheet having a function of diffusing or condensing light emitted from the light guide plate.
As a light source of the backlight unit, low voltage driving and a high efficiency light emitting diode (LED) may be applied. The light emitting diode is a two-terminal diode device including a compound semiconductor such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), gallium nitride (GaN), and indium gallium nitride (InGaN). When power is applied to the cathode terminal and the anode terminal of the light emitting diode, the light emitting diode emits visible light as light energy generated when electrons and holes combine.
The backlight unit is divided into the edge type and the direct type according to the position of the light source.
The edge type backlight unit is mainly applied to a liquid crystal display device of a comparatively small size such as a monitor of a laptop type computer and a desktop type computer, and has advantages of uniformity of light, long life, and advantageous in thinning of a liquid crystal display device .
When configuring the backlight unit to which the light emitting element is applied, it is necessary to guide the light generated in the light emitting element in a predetermined direction and to ensure uniform light emission over the display area of the backlight unit. In addition, in order to improve productivity and facilitate user convenience, thinning and weight reduction of the backlight unit are important issues.
The embodiment provides a backlight unit having light generated from the light source module of the backlight unit in the form of a surface light source using a pattern of a pattern film, and transmitting light without loss to the transmission film to improve light reliability.
The backlight unit according to the embodiment is adjacent to the light source module, the light source module, a pattern film having a plurality of patterns formed on the upper surface, and a transmissive film disposed on the upper surface of the pattern film, and transmits a part of the light reflected from the pattern film Include.
The backlight unit according to the embodiment may slim the product by omitting the light guide plate and simplify the process.
The backlight unit according to the embodiment may convert the light incident from the light source module into a surface light source using the pattern of the pattern film.
The backlight unit according to the embodiment may transmit the light without loss using the transmissive film.
