  • blue light is converted into green light with the green phosphor film.
  • isotropic light emission of red and green is obtained, and isotropic blue light emission is achieved through the blue scatterer film.
  • the light distribution adjustment layer provided on the phosphor layer and the scatterer layer provides a display that does not change in brightness when viewed from any direction and does not change color when viewed from any direction. It was. Thereby, full color display was possible, and a good image and an image with good viewing angle characteristics could be obtained.

Abstract

L'invention a pour objectif de fournir un substrat de luminophore, un dispositif luminescent, un dispositif d'affichage, et un dispositif d'éclairage qui présentent des caractéristiques d'affichage couleur d'angle de vision satisfaisantes ne changeant pas les teintes selon l'angle de vision. Dans le substrat de luminophore, sont formés : un substrat qui est excité par une lumière d'excitation, et dans lequel une couche de luminophore générant une fluorescence est formée sur une de ses faces ; et une couche d'ajustement de distribution lumineuse, entre ledit substrat et ladite couche de luminophore, qui change la direction de luminescence de la fluorescence émise par au moins ladite couche de luminophore.
