Abstract

Dispositif à cristaux liquides dans lequel un élément d'affichage à cristaux liquides est éclairé par un flux lumineux blanc émis à travers une plaque de guidage transparente, provenant d'une lampe fluorescente à cathode froide placée le long d'un des bords latéraux de ladite plaque de guidage transparente. Le dispositif d'affichage à cristaux liquides comprend une lentille de collimation disposée sur une surface d'incidence de lumière de la plaque de guidage afin d'améliorer la directivité du flux lumineux provenant de la lampe à cathode froide, avant qu'il ne pénètre dans la plaque de guidage, et une plaque prismatique destinée à orienter le flux lumineux provenant de la plaque de guidage vers l'élément à cristaux liquides, dans une direction presque perpendiculaire à la surface supérieure de la plaque de guidage. Des billes creuses sont dispersées dans la plaque de guidage afin d'améliorer l'efficacité d'utilisation de la lumière provenant de la lampe fluorescente, et elles assurent une luminosité uniforme de manière à obtenir un affichage lumineux et uniforme.
