Improvement of Color and Luminance Uniformity of the Edge-Lit Backlight Using the RGB LEDs

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The effect of the M-window color mixing bar on the characteristics of color mixing and hot spots in the edge–lit backlight employing red (R), green (G), blue (G) light emitting diodes (LED) were studied in terms of the structure of the M-window color mixing bar. The rays from RGB LEDs entering the M-window bar were mixed by internal reflection and scattering inside the M-window bar so that the hot spots and color separation were minimized. The M-window bar was designed and fabricated and the simulation results are matched quite well to experimental data.
