Description

Light guide plate
[technical field]
The invention relates to a kind of light guide plate that is used for liquid crystal indicator.
[background technology]
Advantage such as that liquid crystal indicator has is frivolous, little power consumption, radiation are low is widely used in electronic display units such as notebook computer, mobile phone, electronic dictionary, LCD TV.Along with the continuous development of lcd technology and apply, variation has also taken place in its environment for use in recent years, constantly increases in the frequency of outdoor application, and people also improve constantly visual demand, and hope can be developed the higher liquid crystal indicator of brightness.
In recent years, the module invention backlight that improves emitting brightness constantly is suggested, and wherein a kind of prior art module backlight can be consulted disclosed TOHKEMY 2004-111384 communique on April 8th, 2004.As shown in Figure 1, this module 1 backlight comprises a light guide plate 2 and a light source 3, and this light guide plate 2 comprises an exiting surface 4 and a bottom surface 5, and this bottom surface 5 has a plurality of grooves 6 along circular-arc arrangement, the top 7 of these a plurality of grooves 6 is at conplane circular arc, and this plane parallel is in this bottom surface 5.
The texture ratio of a plurality of grooves 6 of this light guide plate 2 is than homogeneous, light incides the incident angle difference of these a plurality of grooves 6, the part light that is incident to this groove 6 passes through exiting surface 4 outgoing of the reflection of this groove 6 from light guide plate 2, part light loses because of less bottom surface 5 outgoing that take place to reflect from light guide plate 2 on groove 6 of incident angle, and its emitting brightness is lower.
In this module 1 backlight, the direct of travel of the difficult control incident ray of the homogeneous structural of this groove 6, light is via light guide plate 2 outgoing, its visual angle secundly, after diffusion sheet is with divergence of beam, via a slice or two prismatic lenses light is concentrated again, do collocation with the visual angle of liquid crystal panel, usually its arranging effect is relatively poor, and cost is higher.
[summary of the invention]
In order to overcome the low problem of prior art light guide plate emitting brightness, the invention provides a kind of emitting brightness height, the light guide plate of may command beam projecting direction.
The technical scheme that technical solution problem of the present invention is adopted is: a kind of light guide plate is provided, this light guide plate comprises a substrate and a refractive material layer, this substrate comprises a bottom surface and a surface, this bottom surface has a plurality of vee-cuts, the fluctuating at this vee-cut top is highly different, this surface has groove array, the refractive index of this refractive material layer is greater than the refractive index of this substrate, this surface and this bottom surface are oppositely arranged, this refractive material layer is arranged on this surface, and this refractive material layer is concordant with this groove array.
Compare with prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows: the vee-cut top of light guide plate of the present invention rises and falls highly different, the fluctuating height change at this top, the incident angle that is incident to this vee-cut light is changed, control is incident to the incident angle of this vee-cut light, make incident angle after the total reflection of this vee-cut, incide this surface, be incident to from this surperficial groove array and be arranged at this surperficial refractive material layer greater than the light of critical angle.Because the refractive index of this refractive material layer is greater than the refractive index of this substrate, so, part light is directly outgoing from this refractive material layer, total reflection takes place in part light on the interface of this refractive material layer and this Surface Groove array, light is converged, make light see through the whole outgoing of this refractive material layer.A part of light less than critical angle incides this surface after the reflection of this vee-cut, a part of light incides next vee-cut and is recovered utilization after refraction, light can not slatterned because of refraction, improves the emitting brightness of light guide plate.
This light guide plate also can change the fluctuating height at this vee-cut top, and control is incident to the reflection direction of this vee-cut light, makes light be incident to this surface, sees through this surperficial groove array, is incident in this refractive material layer.Part light is directly outgoing from this refractive material layer, and part light on the interface of this refractive material layer and this Surface Groove array total reflection takes place, this groove array may command light converge direction.At last, make light see through this refractive material layer, do collocation, control beam projecting direction with liquid crystal panel all from the view directions outgoing of forward or liquid crystal panel.
