Abstract

La présente invention concerne une unité de rétroéclairage d'un appareil d'écran à cristaux liquides (LCD), et plus spécifiquement une plaque de guidage de lumière. Ladite plaque est capable de condenser une lumière incidente provenant d'une source de lumière latérale par rapport à une distribution d'angles de vue horizontale ou verticale, selon un modèle optique formé sur la surface inférieure de la plaque de guide de lumière, puis de l'émettre en direction d'une surface supérieure. Ladite plaque de guide de lumière de la présente invention comprend : une couche à motifs dotée d'une pluralité de motifs optiques formés sur au moins une surface, et une pluralité de particules de diffusion de lumière dispersées dans les motifs optiques de la couche à motifs, une préforme de la couche à motifs et les particules de diffusion de lumière présentant des indices de réfraction différents. Avec la présente invention, les taches lumineuses et les lignes lumineuses qui surviennent à une source lumineuse et une lumière incidente sont supprimées, la luminosité et l'uniformité de luminosité sont améliorées, et la lumière, de par la nature de la plaque de guide de lumière, est condensée par rapport aux distributions d'angles de vue dirigés horizontalement et verticalement conformément à un modèle optique donné. Ainsi, un nombre réduit de feuilles optiques destinées à être utilisées dans une émission centrale de lumière sur la surface supérieure de la plaque de guide de lumière peut être utilisé, ce qui diminue le temps et les coûts requis pour la fabrication de telles unités de rétroéclairage. Par conséquent, la présente invention est utile dans l'amélioration des caractéristiques optiques et dans la réduction des coûts de fabrication.
