Specific embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the invention will be further described.
As shown in Fig. 2 in the present embodiment, backlight module 10 include light guide plate 11, the reflectance coating 12 of covering light guide plate 11,The luminescent device 19 of the one end of light guide plate 11 is arranged on, the glue frame 18 of light guide plate 11 and luminescent device 19 is accommodated and is covered in leaded lightThe diffusion sheet 17 on the top of plate 11.Luminescent device 19 can be adhered in glue frame 18.Luminescent device 19 switches on power backward light guide plate11 emit beam.Light is in the light guide plate 11 by once or multilayer refraction and directive diffusion sheet 17, light guide plate being projected in lightPolarised light is filtered into when 11.Diffusion sheet 17 is atomized the polarised light.
Light guide plate 11 is transparency carrier.Light guide plate 11 generally uses rectangular slab.Reflectance coating 12 wraps up light guide plate 11.Reflectance coating12 reflecting surface is minute surface.The reflecting surface of reflectance coating 12 is towards light guide plate 11.Light guide plate 11 is generally by higher transparent of refractive indexMaterial is made.The transparent material can be the makrolon or polymethyl methacrylate of optical grade.Light guide plate 11 is substantially squareThe platy structure of shape.One plate face of light guide plate 11 is exiting surface 31, and another plate face relative with exiting surface 31 is the back side.LeadThe back side of tabula rasa 11 is provided with intensive reflective site.Reflective site is usually disposed as outwardly salient point array.Light guide plate11 each side and exiting surface 31 are smooth.One side of light guide plate 11 is incidence surface 32.
As shown in figure 3, reflectance coating 12 is covered on light guide plate 11.Reflectance coating 12 is covered in light guide plate 11 except incidence surface 32On each face.In the present embodiment, reflectance coating 12 include flexible board 16, the transparent dielectric layer 30 that is covered on flexible board 16 andIt is covered in the metallic reflector 13 on transparent dielectric layer 30.Flexible board 16 is abutted against with light guide plate 11.Flexible board 16 is using transparentMaterial is made, for example resin material.Transparent dielectric layer 30 is deposited on flexible board 16.The material of transparent dielectric layer 30 includesSiO2、SiO、MgO、Si3N4、TiO2、Ta2O5In one or more.Imaginary part of the metallic reflector 13 preferably using refractive index is bigMetal material, for example, using the one kind in Al, Ag, Au.Metallic reflector 13 is deposited on transparent dielectric layer 30.In this realityApply in example, the two sides of metallic reflector 13 is reflecting surface, it is only necessary to by therein one facing to light guide plate 11.
Reflectance coating 12 includes facial area 41, back panel 43 and multiple sides area 42.The facial area 41 of reflectance coating 12 is coveredOn the exiting surface 31 of light guide plate.Reflected light grid region 14 and shading region 15 are provided with facial area 41.In reflected light grid region 14Interior metallic reflector 13 is arranged to wiregrating.Wiregrating is arranged side by side and evenly spaced metal wire 20 for a plurality of.The width of metal wire 20Degree is identical.The slit 21 of hollow out is formed between adjacent two metal line 20.It is preferably to be parallel to each other between many metal lines 20 and setsPut.Wavelength of the width of slit 21 less than the light that luminescent device 19 sends.The back panel 43 of reflectance coating 12 is covered in light guide plate 11The back side on.Multiple side areas 42 of reflectance coating 12 are respectively overlay in light guide plate 11 except on each side of incidence surface.Preferably,Reflectance coating 12 is structure as a whole.
Luminescent device 19 is active light-emitting component.Incidence surface of the luminescent device 19 near light guide plate 11.Luminescent device 19Light emission direction is towards light guide plate 11.In the present embodiment, luminescent device 19 is provided with multiple, and multiple luminescent devices 19 are along entering lightThe bearing of trend in face is arranged successively.The distance between two neighboring luminescent device 19 interval is uniform.Luminescent device 19 is preferably to be sent outThe Light-Emitting Diode of optical diode, more preferably blue light-emitting.
Glue frame 18 is configured to disk-like structure.In the present embodiment, glue frame 18 is configured to square disc shape.Glue frame 18 accommodates light guide plate11 and luminescent device 19.Luminescent device 19 is preferably mounted on the madial wall of glue frame 18.Luminescent device 19 can be bonded inIn glue frame 18.Glue frame 18 is made using elasticity or flexible material, and cushioning effect is played to external force.Glue frame 18 wraps large areaReflectance coating 12, is avoided that reflectance coating 12 is scraped off.
Diffusion sheet 17 is covered on the reflectance coating 12 of exiting surface 31.Diffusion sheet 17 can be bonded in reflectance coating 12On.Diffusion sheet 17 includes a large amount of transparent particles.So, can be reflected when light passes through transparent particle, light beam is repeatedly through thoroughlyScattered to all directions after bright particulate.It is atomized after light passes through diffusion sheet 17, the light after atomization is softer, it is more equal to be distributedIt is even.
The power supply of luminescent device 19 is connected, the light that luminescent device 19 sends is injected from the incidence surface 32 of light guide plate 11.HairThe light beam that optical device 19 sends enter into light guide plate 11 after directive reflectance coating 12 and reflective site and reflected to all directions.WhenDuring light directive reflected light grid region 14, due to the slit 21 of wiregrating at this width less than light wavelength, polarization direction perpendicular toMetal wire 20 TM polarization luminous energy transmit reflected light grid region 14 and enter into diffusion sheet 17 and be atomized, and polarization direction parallel toThe TE polarised lights of metal wire 20 can be then reflected in light guide plate 11 so as to be recycled.Again because light guide plate 11 is by reflectance coating12 coverings, the light of the back panel 43 of directive reflectance coating 11 can be reflected off and reuse, the side area of directive reflectance coating 1142 light can be reflected off and reuse, and light is only capable of being revealed from incidence surface 32, thus greatly improves to photophoreThe utilization rate that part 19 emits beam, thus, improves brightness and the backlight efficiency of backlight module 10.
Preferably, reflected light grid region 14 is located at the middle part of exiting surface 31, and shading region is provided with around reflected light grid region 1415.As described in the background art, in the prior art, the edge light leak of liquid crystal display is prevented using black double-sided glue.Black is doubleFace glue absorbs light and causes light utilization low.And shading region 15 is provided with around reflected light grid region 14, shading regionThe light at the edge of exiting surface 31 can be reflected back in light guide plate 11 and recycled by 15, so both be avoided that liquid crystal display edge light leakThe utilization rate of light is improve again.
Preferably, the scope value in the cycle of wiregrating is 20~500nm, and its dutycycle is 0.1~0.9.The cycle of wiregratingRefer to the width sum of the width with wall scroll slit 21 of single metal line 20.Dutycycle refers to the width and wall scroll of single metal line 20The ratio between width of slit 21.So, the transmitted light of the outgoing of reflected light grid region 14 has particularly apparent polarization property.
