Abstract
Description
本新型創作是有關於一種光學模組,且特別是有關於一種背光模組。This new creation relates to an optical module, and particularly relates to a backlight module.
隨著液晶顯示器這類的非自發光顯示器的應用日益廣泛,背光模組的設計也需針對不同的使用情境而調整。為了提升光源的光能利用率,搭載光學增亮膜(Brightness Enhancement Film,BEF)的背光模組已成為市場的主流之一。一般來說,此類背光模組都配置有兩片光學增亮膜(例如稜鏡的延伸方向相互正交的兩稜鏡片)的疊層架構,可將導光板在大角度出射的光束導向涵蓋正視角的特定角度範圍內,以提高背光模組於正視角附近的整體出光強度。然而,這類雙層BEF的配置方式對於背光模組的薄型化有其限制。With the increasing application of non-self-luminous displays such as liquid crystal displays, the design of the backlight module also needs to be adjusted for different usage scenarios. In order to improve the light energy utilization rate of the light source, the backlight module equipped with Brightness Enhancement Film (BEF) has become one of the mainstreams in the market. Generally speaking, this kind of backlight module is equipped with a laminated structure of two optical brightness enhancement films (for example, the two optical films whose extending directions are orthogonal to each other), which can guide the light beam emitted from the light guide plate at a large angle to cover Within the specific angle range of the front viewing angle, the overall light intensity of the backlight module near the front viewing angle is improved. However, this type of double-layer BEF configuration has its limitations on the thinning of the backlight module.
為了提高背光模組的集光性並且突破上述薄型化的限制,一種採用逆稜鏡片來取代層疊的兩片光學增亮膜的集光型背光模組應運而生。這類背光模組能更進一步地提升在正視角附近的整體出光量(亦即,具有更小角度範圍的聚光特性)。另外,由於集光型背光模組所搭載的光學膜層的堆疊數量較少,使其整體厚度可有效縮減,有助於背光模組的薄化。然而,從另一觀點來說,使用此類集光型背光模組,當背光模組的各膜層之間存在細部缺陷或微小異物(例如組裝時所帶入的塵埃或毛屑)時,在後續品管的光學檢測過程中易被檢出。換句話說,此類集光性能極佳的背光模組對於細微缺陷的遮瑕性也較差,致使其整體的組裝良率下降。因此,如何兼顧背光模組的集光性與遮瑕性,是相關廠商在設計開發時所需面對的難題之一。In order to improve the light-collecting performance of the backlight module and break through the above-mentioned limitation of thinning, a light-collecting type backlight module that uses a reversed-layer sheet to replace two laminated optical brightness enhancement films has emerged. This type of backlight module can further increase the overall light output near the frontal viewing angle (that is, the light gathering characteristic with a smaller angle range). In addition, since the number of stacks of optical film layers mounted on the light-concentrating backlight module is small, its overall thickness can be effectively reduced, which contributes to thinning of the backlight module. However, from another point of view, when using this type of light-concentrating backlight module, when there are fine defects or small foreign objects (such as dust or lint brought in during assembly) between the various film layers of the backlight module, It is easy to be detected in the subsequent optical inspection process of quality control. In other words, this type of backlight module with excellent light collection performance is also poor in concealment of fine defects, resulting in a decrease in the overall assembly yield. Therefore, how to balance the light collection and concealment properties of the backlight module is one of the difficulties that relevant manufacturers face during the design and development.
本新型創作提供一種組裝良率高且集光性較佳的背光模組。The present invention provides a backlight module with high assembly yield and better light collection.

進一步而言,光學膜片120包括基板121、複數個光學微結構122與第一擴散結構層123。基板121具有相對的入光側121a與出光側121b,其中入光側121a朝向導光板100,且這些光學微結構122設置在基板121的入光側121a,其中這些光學微結構122的延伸方向相交於導光板100的入光面100b,且這些光學微結構122可選擇性地與導光板100接觸。在本實施例中,基板121的材質可包括聚對苯二甲酸乙二酯(polyethylene terephthalate,PET)與聚碳酸酯(polycarbonate,PC)。光學微結構122的材質可包括紫外光硬化膠材(UV glue)、或其他適合的高分子聚合物。在一較佳的實施例中,光學微結構122的折射率可介於1.46至1.7之間,但不以此為限。Furthermore, the
在本實施例中,光學膜片120的光學微結構122可沿方向X排列於基板121,且在方向Y上延伸。舉例來說,光學微結構122在垂直於延伸方向(即方向Y)的平面(即XZ平面)上的橫截面輪廓可以是三角形。亦即,本實施例的光學微結構122可以是三角稜鏡條,但本新型創作不以此為限,在其他實施例中,光學微結構122在XZ平面上的橫截面輪廓也可根據實際的光型需求(或者是分光效果)而調整。更具體地說,請參照圖2,這些光學微結構122各自具有相對的第一斜面122s1與第二斜面122s2,且第一斜面122s1與第二斜面122s2的交界處定義出光學微結構122的一稜線RL。在本實施例中,光學微結構122在第一斜面122s1與第二斜面122s2之間具有一頂角θ,且頂角θ可介於50度至90度之間,但本新型創作不以此為限。在其他實施例中,光學微結構的頂角θ也可以是90度、介於90度至130度之間、或介於30度至150度之間。在一較佳的實施例中,光學微結構的頂角θ可介於75度至95度之間。In this embodiment, the
請參照圖3,在本實施例中,光學微結構122的稜線RL(即延伸路徑)於導光板100之出光面100a上的垂直投影的延伸方向(即方向Y)可選擇性地垂直於導光板100的入光面100b,使背光模組於正視角附近的整體出光量大幅增加。然而,本新型創作不限於此,根據其他實施例,光學微結構122的稜線RL於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向也可不垂直於導光板100的入光面100b,意即,可不特別限定角度。舉例來說,光學微結構122的稜線RL於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與導光板100的入光面100b之間的夾角可為0度(即平行)、介於0度至46度、介於45度至135度或介於134度至180度。據此,不同的實施態樣均可增加背光模組於正視角附近的整體出光量。3, in this embodiment, the extension direction (ie direction Y) of the vertical projection of the ridge line RL (ie extension path) of the
請參照圖1及圖4,光學膜片120的第一擴散結構層123設置於基板121的出光側121b,且在導光板100之出光面100a的法線方向(即方向Z)上重疊於多個光學微結構122。舉例來說,光學膜片120的第一擴散結構層123可選擇性地包括感光膠層1231與多個擴散粒子1232,其中這些擴散粒子1232被感光膠層1231所包覆(如圖4所示)。在本實施例中,感光膠層1231的材質例如是紫外光硬化膠材(UV glue)、或其他適合的透明感光膠材。擴散粒子1232的材質可包括聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(polymethyl methacrylate,PMMA)、聚苯乙烯(polystyrene,PS)、或上述材料的共聚物(copolymer)。另一方面,在本實施例中,第一擴散結構層123的多個擴散粒子1232可以是圓球狀,且具有多種粒徑,但本新型創作不以此為限。在其他實施例中,多個擴散粒子1232也可具有大致上相同的粒徑。1 and 4, the first
值得一提的是,透過光學膜片120在出光側121b設有第一擴散結構層123,可使光學膜片120具有特定的霧度值(Haze value)。舉例來說,第一擴散結構層123(或者是光學膜片120)的霧度值可介於5%至20%之間、20%至90%之間或5%至90%之間。在一較佳的實施例中,第一擴散結構層123的霧度值可介於5%至50%之間。據此,可提升背光模組的遮瑕性,進而提高背光模組的組裝良率。換句話說,也可增加背光模組之各組件的製程容許度(process latitude)。另一方面,由於第一擴散結構層123(或者是光學膜片120)具有特定的霧度值,因此背光模組50的擴散片(diffuser)數量可進一步縮減,有助於降低生產成本。It is worth mentioning that the transparent
特別說明的是,在滿足特定的遮瑕需求下,為了將背光模組在正視角附近的整體出光量最大化,光學微結構122的頂角θ可根據第一擴散結構層123的霧度值而調整。舉例來說,在一實施例中,第一擴散結構層123的霧度值為20%,且光學微結構的頂角θ為90度;在另一實施例中,第一擴散結構層123的霧度值為50%,且為了取得相同程度的正向光輝度值(brightness),光學微結構的頂角θ需設計為小於70度。In particular, to meet specific concealment requirements, in order to maximize the overall light output of the backlight module near the front viewing angle, the apex angle θ of the
進一步而言,背光模組50更包括第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140。第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140在導光板100之出光面100a的法線方向(即方向Z)上重疊於光學膜片120,且位於光學膜片120的基板121的出光側121b(亦即,光學膜片120設有第一擴散結構層123的一側)。第一稜鏡片130位於光學膜片120與第二稜鏡片140之間。具體而言,第一稜鏡片130具有基板131與複數個稜鏡結構132。這些稜鏡結構132沿方向Y排列於基板131遠離光學膜片120的一側表面上,且在方向X上延伸。相似地,第二稜鏡片140具有基板141與複數個稜鏡結構142。這些稜鏡結構142沿方向X排列於基板141遠離第一稜鏡片130的一側表面上,且在方向Y上延伸。需說明的是,本實施例的光學微結構122、稜鏡結構132、稜鏡結構142的數量僅作為示例性的說明之用,並不以圖式揭示內容而加以限制本新型創作。在一些實施例中,光學膜片120的光學微結構122的數量也可不同於稜鏡片的稜鏡結構的數量。Furthermore, the
值得注意的是,在本實施例中,光學膜片120的多個光學微結構122於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向(例如方向Y)垂直於第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向(例如方向X)。也就是說,光學膜片120的多個光學微結構122於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向之間的夾角α1為90度,但本新型創作不以此為限。在其他實施例中,光學膜片120的多個光學微結構122於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向之間的夾角α1也可介於85度至95度之間且不等於90度。It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, the extension direction (for example, direction Y) of the vertical projection of the plurality of
在本實施例中,第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向(即方向X)可垂直於第二稜鏡片140的多個稜鏡結構142於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向(即方向Y)。也就是說,第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與第二稜鏡片140的多個稜鏡結構142於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向之間的夾角α2為90度,但本新型創作不以此為限。在其他實施例中,第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132的延伸方向也可不垂直且不平行於第二稜鏡片140的多個稜鏡結構142的延伸方向。例如:第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與第二稜鏡片140的多個稜鏡結構142於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向之間的夾角α2也可介於85度至95度之間且不等於90度。在另一實施例中,多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向可垂直於多個稜鏡結構142於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向,並且光學微結構122的稜線RL於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向可垂直於多個稜鏡結構132於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向,以及光學微結構122的稜線RL於導光板100上的垂直投影的延伸方向與導光板100的入光面100b之間的夾角可為介於45度至135度或不限定角度。在本實施例中,第一稜鏡片130的多個稜鏡結構132與第二稜鏡片140的多個稜鏡結構142的折射率可介於1.62至1.75之間。如此,可進一步提升背光模組50於正視角附近的整體出光量。In this embodiment, the extension direction of the vertical projection of the
請繼續參照圖1,背光模組50還可選擇性地包括擴散片150,但本新型創作不以此為限。擴散片150重疊設置於第二稜鏡片140,且位於第二稜鏡片140遠離第一稜鏡片130的一側。進一步而言,背光模組50還可包括反射片160,導光板100還具有與出光面100a相對的一底面100c,且反射片160設置在導光板100設有底面100c的一側。舉例來說,本實施例的反射片160可以是白反射片或銀反射片。由於光源110所發出的部分光束,在經由導光板100傳遞的過程中會從導光板100的底面100c出射而造成光能損耗。因此,透過反射片160的設置,可將上述的部分光束反射而傳遞回導光板100,以提高光源110的光能利用率。然而,本新型創作不限於此,在其他實施例中,背光模組也可不具有反射片160。Please continue to refer to FIG. 1, the

That is to say, any backlight module that includes a non-self-luminous display panel and adopts the embodiment of the invention still belongs to the technical solution that can be adopted in the present disclosure, and does not deviate from what the present disclosure intends to protect. range.
圖5至圖8是本新型創作的另一些實施例的光學膜片的剖面示意圖。特別說明的是,圖5至圖8的任一光學膜片可取代圖1的光學膜片120以形成不同實施態樣的背光模組。請參照圖5,本實施例的光學膜片120A與圖4的光學膜片120的主要差異在於:第一擴散結構層的組成與結構。在本實施例中,光學膜片120A的第一擴散結構層123A不具有擴散粒子,且第一擴散結構層123A遠離基板121的表面123s具有微結構。需說明的是,此處的微結構係以不規則(或亂數分布)的凹凸結構為例進行示範性地說明,並不代表本新型創作以圖式揭示內容為限制。在一些實施例中,第一擴散結構層的微結構也可以是具有週期性分布的凹凸結構,且可透過以微影蝕刻製作模具的方式進行這些凹凸結構的製作,或可採用微影蝕刻製程(photolithography and etching process)直接在第一擴散結構層123A上進行凹凸結構的製作。亦即,第一擴散結構層123A的材料可包括紫外光硬化膠材(UV glue)或光阻材料(photoresist)。值得一提的是,這些凹凸結構的製作方式不以上述方式為限,在其他實施例中可在模具上利用噴砂方式使模具表面具有凹凸狀,再進行UV成形而製作出第一擴散結構層。5 to 8 are schematic cross-sectional views of optical films according to other embodiments of the invention.

請參照圖6,本實施例的光學膜片120B與圖5的光學膜片120A的主要差異在於:光學微結構與第一擴散結構層的組成。在本實施例中,光學膜片120B的光學微結構122A可包括多個擴散粒子1222(即光學微結構122A也可具有特定的霧度值)。另一方面,可使用具有亂數分布的凹凸微結構的模具(例如滾輪),於設置於基板121之出光側121b的紫外光硬化膠材形成具有亂數分布的凹凸微結構並進行硬化成形,以形成第一擴散結構層123B;或者形成第一擴散結構層123B的方法可包括在基板121之出光側121b的表面上利用紫外光或電漿進行表面粗化的步驟,亦即第一擴散結構層123B與基板121的材質可相同。舉例來說,光學微結構122A的霧度值可小於第一擴散結構層123B的霧度值。然而,本新型創作不限於此,在其他實施例中,光學微結構122A的霧度值與第一擴散結構層123B的霧度值之間的大小關係也可根據光學膜片120B的整體霧度需求而定。在另一實施例中,光學膜片的第一擴散結構層也可不具有微結構或光學膜片不具有第一擴散結構層,亦即,光學膜片所需的霧度係由包含擴散粒子1222的多個光學微結構122A來提供。Please refer to FIG. 6, the main difference between the
請參照圖7及圖8,圖7的光學膜片120C、圖8的光學膜片120D與圖5的光學膜片120A的主要差異在於:光學微結構的構型。具體而言,光學膜片120C的光學微結構122B的橫截面輪廓為圓弧形,而光學膜片120D的光學微結構122C的橫截面輪廓為多邊形(亦即,光學微結構122C的橫截面輪廓具有多個折線段)。然而,本新型創作不限於上述實施態樣,上述不同的第一擴散結構層的組成與結構、光學微結構的組成與構型等實施方式,均可依據光學膜片的整體霧度需求而組合應用。7 and 8, the main difference between the
圖9A是本新型創作的第二實施例的背光模組的俯視示意圖。圖9B是本新型創作的第三實施例的背光模組的俯視示意圖。請參照圖9A,本實施例的背光模組50A與圖3的背光模組50的差異在於:光學微結構的構型。在本實施例中,光學膜片120E的光學微結構122D的稜線RL-A(即延伸路徑)於導光板100之出光面100a上的垂直投影為折線狀。具體而言,儘管光學微結構122D的延伸路徑為折線狀,其稜線RL-A於導光板100上的垂直投影仍侷限在兩條虛擬直線IL之間。9A is a schematic top view of the backlight module of the second embodiment of the invention. FIG. 9B is a schematic top view of the backlight module of the third embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 9A, the difference between the
更具體地說,光學微結構122D的稜線RL-A的多個彎折處於導光板100上的垂直投影分別與兩條虛擬直線IL切齊,且這兩條虛擬直線IL的延伸方向分別垂直於導光板100的入光面100b。也就是說,儘管光學微結構122D的延伸路徑為折線狀,其延伸方向大致上仍垂直於導光板100的入光面100b(即方向Y)。值得一提的是,透過光學微結構122D於導光板100之出光面100a上的垂直投影具有來回彎折的外形,可有效抑制光學膜片120E與兩稜鏡片(例如第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140)間所產生的亮暗紋現象,即摩爾紋(moiré pattern)。換言之,可提升背光模組50A的出光均勻度。More specifically, the vertical projections of the multiple bends of the ridgeline RL-A of the
請參照圖9B,本實施例的背光模組50A-1與圖9A的背光模組50A的差異在於:光學微結構的構型。在本實施例中,光學膜片120E-1的光學微結構122D-1的任兩相鄰的稜線RL-A於導光板100上的兩垂直投影係以鏡像方式呈現。據此,可進一步抑制光學膜片120E-1與兩稜鏡片(例如第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140)間所產生的亮暗紋現象。Please refer to FIG. 9B. The difference between the
圖10A是本新型創作的第四實施例的背光模組的俯視示意圖。圖10B是本新型創作的第五實施例的背光模組的俯視示意圖。請參照圖10A,本實施例的背光模組50B與圖9A的背光模組50A的差異在於:光學微結構的構型。在本實施例中,光學膜片120F的光學微結構122E的稜線RL-B(即延伸路徑)於導光板100之出光面100a上的垂直投影為波浪狀。相似於前述實施例的光學微結構122D(如圖9A所示),在本實施例中,儘管光學微結構122E的延伸路徑為波浪狀(例如是正/餘弦狀曲線),其延伸方向大致上仍垂直於導光板100的入光面100b(即方向Y)。然而,本新型創作不限於此,根據其他實施例,光學微結構的延伸路徑也可以是不具週期性的彎折曲線。值得一提的是,透過光學微結構122E於導光板100之出光面100a上的垂直投影具有來回彎曲的外形,可有效抑制光學膜片120F與兩稜鏡片(如圖1所示的第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140)間所產生的亮暗紋現象,即摩爾紋(moiré pattern)。換言之,可提升背光模組50B的出光均勻度。FIG. 10A is a schematic top view of the backlight module according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. 10B is a schematic top view of the backlight module according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 10A, the difference between the
舉例來說,形成光學膜片120F的光學微結構122E的方法可包括在基板121上塗佈一紫外光硬化膠層(或其他適合的樹脂層)以及利用一預置有壓印圖案(例如波浪狀或折線狀的紋路)的模具在上述紫外光硬化膠層上進行壓印,同時利用紫外光源將位於模具與基板121之間的紫外光硬化膠層進行固化。然而,本新型創作不限於此,在其他實施例中,形成光學微結構的方法也可包括利用具有特定外形之刀頭的刀具在上述紫外光硬化膠層進行雕塑。具體而言,刀頭在紫外光硬化膠層上刻劃的過程中,刀頭與基板121會在刀頭行進方向(即方向Y)的垂直方向(即方向X)上相對移動。據此,所形成的光學微結構,在其延伸方向上的波浪狀分布週期可根據刀頭來回移動的週期而定。在另一實施例中,刀頭在紫外光硬化膠層上刻劃的過程中,刀頭會產生垂直於基板方向上的來回移動,利用刀頭擠壓的程度不同可產生葫蘆狀的波浪堆積構型,如圖10B的背光模組50B-1所示。亦即,光學膜片120F-1的光學微結構122E-1的任兩相鄰的稜線RL-B於導光板100上的兩垂直投影係以鏡像方式呈現。據此,可進一步抑制光學膜片120F-1與兩稜鏡片(例如第一稜鏡片130與第二稜鏡片140)間所產生的亮暗紋現象。For example, the method for forming the
圖11是本新型創作的第六實施例的背光模組的示意圖。圖12是圖11的背光模組的側視示意圖。圖13是圖11的第二稜鏡片的剖面示意圖。請參照圖11至圖13,本實施例的背光模組50C與圖1的背光模組50的差異在於:第二稜鏡片的構型。在本實施例中,第二稜鏡片140A還具有第二擴散結構層143,設置在第二稜鏡片140A朝向第一稜鏡片130的一側,且在方向Z上重疊於多個稜鏡結構142。Fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of a backlight module according to a sixth embodiment of the invention. FIG. 12 is a schematic side view of the backlight module of FIG. 11. Fig. 13 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the second sheet of Fig. 11. Please refer to FIGS. 11 to 13, the difference between the
舉例來說,第二稜鏡片140A的第二擴散結構層143可選擇性地包括感光膠層1431與多個擴散粒子1432,其中這些擴散粒子1432被感光膠層1431所包覆(如圖13所示)。在本實施例中,感光膠層1431的材質例如是紫外光硬化膠材(UV glue)、或其他適合的透明感光膠材。擴散粒子1432的材質可包括聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(polymethyl methacrylate,PMMA)、聚苯乙烯(polystyrene,PS)、或上述材料的共聚物(copolymer)。另一方面,在本實施例中,第二擴散結構層143的多個擴散粒子1432可以是圓球狀,且具有多種粒徑,但本新型創作不以此為限。在其他實施例中,多個擴散粒子1432也可具有大致上相同的粒徑。另一方面,由於第二擴散結構層143(或者是第二稜鏡片140A)具有特定的霧度值,因此背光模組50C可不設有如圖1的擴散片150,有助於降低生產成本。然而本新型創作的第二擴散結構層的實施方式不以上述實施例為限,第二擴散結構層亦可以不具擴散粒子,而是以具有微結構表面的方式實施。For example, the second
圖14是本新型創作的另一實施例的第二稜鏡片的剖面示意圖。請參照圖14,本實施例的第二稜鏡片140B與圖13的第二稜鏡片140A的主要差異在於:稜鏡結構的組成以及第二稜鏡片的構型。在本實施例中,第二稜鏡片140B的稜鏡結構142A可包括多個擴散粒子1422。亦即,稜鏡結構142A可具有特定的霧度值。另一方面,第二稜鏡片140B遠離稜鏡結構142A的一側可不設有第二擴散結構層143(如圖13所示)。亦即,第二稜鏡片140B所需的霧度係由包含擴散粒子1422的多個稜鏡結構142A來提供。然而本新型創作的第二稜鏡片的實施方式不以上述實施例為限,第二稜鏡片亦可以包含具有微結構表面的第二擴散結構層及具有擴散粒子的稜鏡結構的組成方式實施。Fig. 14 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a second scallop sheet according to another embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 14, the main difference between the
圖15是本新型創作的第七實施例的背光模組的示意圖。請參照圖15,本實施例的背光模組50D與圖1的背光模組50的差異在於:背光模組50D還可包括另一擴散片151,設置於光學膜片120與導光板100之間。透過此擴散片151的設置,可進一步提升背光模組50D的遮瑕性,進而提高背光模組50D的組裝良率。換句話說,也可增加背光模組50D的各組件的製程容許度。15 is a schematic diagram of the backlight module of the seventh embodiment of the invention. Please refer to FIG. 15, the difference between the
綜上所述,在本新型創作的一實施例的背光模組中,位於稜鏡片與導光板之間的光學膜片具有設置在導光板之出光面一側的多個光學微結構,且透過其光學微結構的延伸方向相交於導光板的入光面,可增加背光模組於正視角附近的整體出光量(亦即,可提升背光模組的集光性)。另一方面,透過光學膜片在遠離光學微結構的一側設有擴散結構層,可提升背光模組的遮瑕性,進而提高背光模組的組裝良率。換言之,也可增加背光模組之各組件的製程容許度(process latitude)。In summary, in the backlight module of an embodiment of the present invention, the optical film located between the light guide plate and the light guide plate has a plurality of optical microstructures arranged on one side of the light emitting surface of the light guide plate, and transmits The extension direction of the optical microstructure intersects the light incident surface of the light guide plate, which can increase the overall light output of the backlight module near the normal viewing angle (that is, it can improve the light collection of the backlight module). On the other hand, the diffusion structure layer is provided on the side far away from the optical microstructure through the optical film, which can improve the concealment of the backlight module, thereby improving the assembly yield of the backlight module. In other words, the process latitude of each component of the backlight module can also be increased.
