And a backlight unit using the optical unit. [Prior Art] A liquid crystal display device is widely used as a screen for a television or a personal computer, and the 'page display device' is roughly divided into a direct view display of the face and a view of the shirt on the screen. Shadow. The direct-view liquid crystal display device has a transmissive type that transmits light of a backlight, a reflection type that does not have a backlight, and uses reflected light such as natural light or an indoor lamp, and a transmissive type that is reflective in a bright place and transmissive in a dark place. formula. On the other hand, in the projection type liquid crystal display device, there is a rear projection type in which a screen is projected on the front surface of the screen, and a screen is incorporated into the display cabinet to reflect the image. Nowadays, a direct-view type, in which a transmissive liquid crystal display device is used as a mainstream, is commonly used. In the transmissive liquid crystal display device, the moonlight mode for illuminating the liquid crystal layer from the back surface is popular, and the backlight unit of the edge illumination type (sidelight type) or direct type is provided on the lower surface side of the liquid crystal layer. The edge-lit backlight unit 20 is generally provided with a lamp 2 as a light source, a square plate-shaped light guide plate 22 disposed at an end portion along the lamp 2 1 , and laminated thereon. The optical unit 23 on the surface side of the light guide plate 22. As a light source lamp, an LED (Light-Emitting Diode) or a cold cathode tube is used. In terms of miniaturization and energy saving, LEDs are currently widely used.

Therefore, the liquid crystal display device for the car navigation system requires different optical performances from other liquid crystal displays such as a personal computer, and the liquid crystal display device for car navigation does not have a wide viewing angle, so that it can be inclined from the front side. That is, the liquid crystal screen is more appropriately viewed from the driving f and the passenger seat. In order to cope with this, 'for example, a backlight unit % having the following optical unit has been developed, that is, 6 does not make the prism prism of the two prism sheets as an optical sheet too and sets the prism toward The inside (light guide plate direction) (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. Hei No. Hei No. Hei. No. Hei. The function of the backlight unit 30 is described. First, the light from the lamp into the film plate is reflected by the reflection point or reflection from the back surface of the light guide plate 32, and the surface of the light guide plate 32 is emitted. The light emitted from the incident light is incident on the enamel sheet 34, and is self-reflected by refraction. Then, the light emitted from the surface of the self-twisting sheet 34 is incident on the 35201113561 sheet 35 by a plurality of ridge portions formed on the surface. The light of the distribution which is widely diffused in the direction is emitted. Thus, the horses are left and right ^ ^ The first month, the backlight unit 3 of the liquid crystal display device of the J, I, and I straight channels, since the early navigation light is passed by the optical unit 33 Diffusion, refracting toward the left and right sides, and then illuminating the entire surface of the liquid crystal layer (not shown) above. However, according to this optical unit 33, as shown in Fig. 4, rtCL - , t is in the comparative example 1 No, since the tilting directions of the two prism sheets 34 and 35 are too high, the front brightness is lowered, and if the liquid surface of the car tenth·*· τ* sub-bottle is viewed from the front, a picture is generated. Bad condition of darkening.

The "release 201113561 carbonate resin" refers to a polymer having a carbonate bond (_〇_R_〇_c〇_) in the main chain. Further, the "surface" of each sheet refers to the side on the side where the light is emitted when the optical unit is provided in the backlight unit. Further, the "back surface" of each sheet refers to the surface on the side where the other light is incident. The "coefficient of variation" of the diameter of the microlens is defined by dividing the standard deviation of the diameter by the average diameter.

When the surface roughness (R ) ^ μ ^ J ° of the micro-lens 6 is further reduced to the above lower limit, the micro-lens array of the micro-transparent material 2 has a forming property of a stick, and it is relatively easy to take a π- 丨 仵 仵 仵And minus 12 201113561 technical burden and cost burden on the light manufacturing side. On the other hand, by setting the surface roughness (Ra) of the microlens 6 to be smaller than the above upper limit, the scattering of light on the surface of the microlens 6 is reduced, and the result is Increasing the refractive function or the light diffusing function of the microlens 6 toward the normal direction side, due to the good optical function, the front side can be The luminance and the uniformity of the emitted light. The lower limit of the height ratio (H/R) of the average height (η) of the pupil lens 6 with respect to the average radius of curvature (R) is preferably 5/8, particularly preferably 3/4. On the other hand, the upper limit of the haze ratio (H/R) is preferably 丨·3. By setting the ratio (H/R) of the microlens 6 to the above range, the microlens can be effectively utilized. ^The lens refraction, the optical function of the condensing sheet of the lenticular sheet 2 is exceptionally enhanced. The ratio of the average inter-lens distance (s; p-D) to the average diameter (D) of the microlens 6 is (s/D). The upper limit of the upper limit is preferably 1/2, which is particularly good. By setting the average inter-lens distance (s) of the microlens 6 to the above-described upper limit or less, the flat portion that does not contribute to the optical function is reduced, and the optical function such as the condensing of the lenticular sheet 2 is particularly enhanced. The lower limit of the filling ratio of the microlens 6 is preferably 4% by weight, particularly preferably 6% by weight. By setting the filling ratio of the microlens 6 to the above lower limit or more, the area occupied by the micro-transparent #6 is increased, and the optical function such as the light diffusing function of the microlens sheet 2 is particularly enhanced. Further, the filling rate of the microlens refers to the ratio of all the microlenses per specific unit area. The lower limit of the refractive index of the material constituting the microlens array 5 is preferably 1 3 and particularly preferably 1.45. On the other hand, the upper limit of the refractive index of the material is preferably n. In this range, the refractive index of the material constituting the microlens array 5 is preferably 1.5. By setting the ratio of the material of the microlens array 5 to the above range, the lens refraction of the microlens 6 is effectively exerted, and the optical function such as light diffusion of the microlens sheet 2 is __ Step up. The method for producing the microlens sheet 2 is not particularly limited as long as the above-described structure can be formed. Various methods can be employed. As a method of manufacturing the microlens sheet 2, a method of forming the base layer 4 and then forming the microlens array 5, and a method of integrally forming the base layer 4 and the microlens array 5 may be employed. Specifically, there are: a method of laminating a synthetic resin on a sheet mold having an inverted shape of the microlens array 5, peeling the sheet mold to form the microlens sheet 2; (b) having an inverted shape of the microlens array $ (In) a method of injecting a molten resin into a metal mold; (c) a method of reheating the sheet-formed resin and sandwiching it between the same metal mold and the metal plate as described above; a sheet forming method in which a mold having a reverse shape of the microlens array 5 on the circumferential surface and a nip of another crucible pass through a resin in a molten state, and the shape is transferred and extruded; (e) The base material layer is coated with an ultraviolet curable resin, and is pressed against a sheet mold, a metal mold, or a roll mold having the same reverse shape as described above, and is transferred to an uncured ultraviolet curable resin, and irradiated with ultraviolet rays to cause ultraviolet rays. Hardened type a method of hardening a resin; (f) filling and coating an unhardened ultraviolet curable resin with a metal mold or a roll mold having an inverted shape as described above, and laminating and flattening the substrate to irradiate ultraviolet rays to harden ultraviolet rays. Method for hardening a resin; (g) a method of ejecting or ejecting an ultraviolet curable resin which has not been hardened to a sheet substrate from a fine nozzle to a sheet substrate, and hardening it, and (h) A method of using an electron beam curing resin instead of the ultraviolet curable resin. As the mold having the inverted shape of the microlens array 5 ((4): the method can be manufactured, for example, by forming a speckled three-dimensional pattern on a substrate by a 敎::, and making the three-dimensional pattern By adding a transparent surface to the curved surface 'by making a microlens array model, the surface of the micro-brother is laminated by electroforming to laminate the metal layer 'the metal: away from the same.' as the manufacturing method of the above microlens array model It is also known that the method described in the above (g) is used. Another manufacturing method of the above-described mold having the inverted shape of the microlens array 5: (etc.) can be manufactured by using an eight-microlens array shape. The original sheet of optical sheet, by squeezing the heart. The method is to first learn the sheet of the original surface layer of the mold for the surface of the composite tree / with the synthetic resin layer to peel off the original sheet of optical sheet. Extrusion layer: two self-modes are preferably laminated with a synthetic resin layer between the optical sheet original and the mold and the special material by sandwiching the layer. According to the above-described manufacturing method, the optical property such as the light diffusion function can be produced with good productivity by the surface of the original sheet of the optical sheet having the shape of the microlens array on the dust-pressing layer. material. In particular, according to the interlayer extrusion lamination method, by using the mold: first learning the film to ensure the strength of the optical sheet forming the mold, the emphasis can be placed on the optical shape of the sheet and the transferability or heat resistance of the surface shape, the synthetic tree original for the mold By using the peeling property of the synthetic resin layer or the like, it is selected to form a gossip-optical layer synthetic resin for the mold, which contributes to the precision of the surface shape of the sheet of the produced optical sheet into a tree layer. 15 201113561 Type or optical The long life of the sheet forming mold is β. According to the above-described manufacturing method using the extrusion lamination method, a mold having an inverted shape of the microlens array 5 having a back surface composed of a plurality of microlenses 6 having a random diameter is used, for example. It can also be easily manufactured by applying a light-diffusing sheet formed by coating beads having various diameters as a master and transferring it or the like. According to the above manufacturing method, the microlens array 5 of any shape can be easily and surely formed. Therefore, the diameter (D), the height ratio (H/R)' spacing ratio (S/D), the filling ratio, and the like of the microlens 6 constituting the microlens array 5 can be easily and surely adjusted, and as a result, it can be easily and surely obtained. The optical function of the lenticular sheet 2 is controlled. The microlens sheet 2 has an optical function such as high light diffusion by the microlens array 5, and the optical function can be easily and surely controlled. Therefore, the microlens sheet 2 can control the peak direction of the incident light toward the sheet 3 to be an inclination angle most suitable for the refraction toward the normal direction side. Further, the lenticular sheet 2 may have an anti-adhesion layer on the surface (the side in contact with the enamel sheet 3). By having the anti-adhesion layer, the lens material 2 adheres to the enamel sheet 3. The anti-adhesion layer is composed of a binder and beads dispersed in the binder. The binder is formed by hardening a polymer composition containing a substrate polymer. The beads are disposed at substantially equal density on the surface of the substrate layer by the binder. Further, the thickness of the anti-adhesion layer (except for the bead portion: the thickness of the binder portion) is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, Ρ, 1 Λ A M m Μ or less. The substrate polymer is not particularly limited, and is, for example, J Magic. Acrylic 201113561 resin, polyurethane vinegar, polyester, gas resin, polyoxo resin, polyacrylamide, epoxy resin The ultraviolet curable resin or the like may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds. In particular, as the base polymer, a polyol having a high workability and being easily formed into an anti-adhesion layer by a method such as coating is preferably used. The base polymer used for the adhesive must transmit light. Set to transparent, especially good for colorless and transparent. The above polyol is preferably, for example, (a) a polystyrene polyol obtained under conditions of excess radicals, (1) a monomer component containing a radical group-containing unsaturated monomer, and having a (meth)acrylic acid group. An acrylic acid such as a unit. The binder of the polyester polyol or the propionic acid polyol as the base polymer has high weather resistance, and can suppress yellowing of the anti-adhesion layer. Further, the polyester polyol and the acrylic polyol may be used alone or in combination. Further, in addition to the base polymer, the polymer composition for forming the binder may be, for example, a fine inorganic filler, a hardener, a plasticizer, a dispersant, various homogenizers, an antistatic agent, and ultraviolet absorption. Agent 'antioxidants, viscous modifiers, lubricants, light stabilizers, etc. The material as a bead is roughly classified into an inorganic filler and an organic filler. As the inorganic filler, specifically, cerium oxide, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum oxide 'zinc oxide, cerium sulfide, magnesium ruthenate or a mixture thereof can be used. As a specific material of the organic filler, an acrylic resin, an acrylonitrile resin, a polyurethane, a polyethylene terephthalate, a polyacrylonitrile, a polyamide or the like can be used. Among them, the acrylic resin which is preferably transparent and does not hinder the transmission of light is particularly preferably a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) 〇17 201113561. The lower limit of the average particle size of the beads is preferably It is i ^ m, particularly preferably 2 ^ claws, and particularly preferably 5 cores. The upper limit of the average particle diameter is preferably 5 〇", particularly preferably 2 〇 / / m ' and then particularly good & 15 " m. If the average particle diameter of the beads is less than the above lower limit', the convex portion of the surface of the anti-adhesion layer formed by the beads may be changed: 'The sufficient anti-adhesion effect cannot be obtained, and conversely, the average grain position of the # beads exceeds the above The upper limit may increase the thickness of the microlens sheet and cause damage to other optical members that coincide with the side of the face. a. If the amount of the beads is set to a relatively small amount, the beads are mutually逖: dispersed in the binder, A majority of the beads are at the lower end of the self-adhesive agent. Therefore, if the lenticular sheet is laminated with the light guide plate, the lower end of the larger bead is abutted. On the surface of the light guide plate, etc., not the entire back side of the microlens sheet The surface is in contact with the light guide plate, etc. #This prevents the adhesion of the microlens sheet to the light guide plate or the like, and suppresses unevenness in brightness of the surface of the liquid crystal display device. As a method of forming the anti-adhesion layer, for example, the following steps are included: ;) a coating liquid for an anti-adhesion layer is produced by mixing beads in a polymer composition constituting a binder; and (b) coating the substrate layer 4 with the coating liquid for an anti-adhesion layer; The anti-adhesion layer is laminated on the back side. Further, the anti-adhesive layer is not limited to the above-described composition (composed of a binder and beads dispersed in the binder) and a forming method, and the substrate layer 4 may be utilized by One of the body-formed surfaces is processed by roughening the surface. By integrally forming the spear J to form an anti-adhesion layer, the manufacturing process can be shortened, and the mass production can be performed industrially. The prism sheet 3 has a sheet shape. The base layer 7 and the protrusion row formed by the ridge protrusion prism portion 8 on the surface of the base material layer 7. In order to prevent the occurrence of the overlap of the 18 201113561 multiple sheets of sheets The protrusion row formed by the plurality of ridge prism portions 8 is preferably Formed completely parallel and at equal intervals, and the ridges 8 are formed at staggered intervals. The enamel sheet 3 has a protrusion row composed of a plurality of ridges 8 on the surface. The higher refractive index function on the normal side and the wide-angle light diffusion function: The base material layer 7 is the same as the base material layer 4 of the above-described microlens sheet 2. The dog frog mirror portion 8 must be made light The transmission is formed of a transparent, non-color-transparent synthetic resin, specifically, the same synthetic resin as the upper substrate layer 4. Further, the same as the above-described microlens array $ constitutes the ridge portion 8 The lower limit of the refractive index of the material is preferably Μ, specifically 1.45, and the upper limit thereof is preferably 18, and particularly preferably 16. The ridge prism portion 8 is a columnar body in which the side faces are in contact with the surface of the substrate layer 7. A cross section in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the strips of the ridges 8 is preferably a vertex angle U9G. , the bottom angle α45. The right angle is an isosceles triangle; the apex angle 9 is in a pan-round state. By thus causing the top of the ridge prism portion 8 to be in a pan-round state, the light emitted from the optical unit 1 toward the normal direction by a few degrees 1: angle: the small 2 can make the amount of light emitted toward the front direction Increasing, the light incident from the ^^ non-perpendicular to the enamel sheet is illuminated by the ridges 8 of the ridges. The towel spreads at a wide angle, so it can increase the inclination of your school.

On the other hand, the upper limit of the width (w) is equal to two: preferably 400_. The reason is that if the protrusion degree (W) is smaller than the lower limit ', the shape of the protrusion type mirror portion 8 is difficult, and if the width of the bottom surface of the protrusion prism portion 8 (w) 19 201113561 is the upper limit, there is It produces glare and uneven brightness.
