A kind of fluorescent lamps CCFL(Cold Cathod Fluorescent Lamp) is used for backlight of LCD and the demand of backlight for TV is getting more. CCFL is also used in a backlight for TFT-LCD panel. BLU(Backlight Unit) has lots of components so it looks a electrical product. As the size of LCD display is larger with increasing of the demand, to drive CCFL inverter is more important. Therefore, a sort of modeling to drive 4 lamps with a transformer is used and we have a simulation test with proposed modeling so we can take some data from the test. The utility of the proposed modeling is verified through using for 30-inch LCD backlight with the data.

A Wide Color Gamut Backlight system was studied using a three-band white Light-Emitting Diode. A three-band white light-emitting diode (LED) was fabricated using an InGaN-based blue LED chip that emits 445-nm blue peak, and a green phosphor and red phosphor that emit 535-nm green and 621-nm red peak emissions, respectively, when excited by 450-nm blue light. Using for this three-band white LED, wide color gamut backlight unit (BLU) was attained. The luminance of BLU and CIE 1931 chromaticity coordinates was $1,700Cd/m^2$ and (0.337, 0.346). Color filter matching simulations for this configuration show that the three-band white LED backlight can be enhanced by up to 16% over conventional white LED backlight color gamut.

A direct-lit liquid crystal display that does not use color filters is proposed. A backlight unit that employs compartmentalized RGB LED and lenticular-lens arrays is used instead of color filters to direct the RGB LED lights into the RGB subpixels. The color-filterless LED backlight design, simulation, and experiment results are presented.

A fiber diffuser sheet based on poly (ethylene naphthalate) (PEN) and poly (methylpentene) (PMP) has shown potential for liquid crystal display backlight units, but these materials have an interfacial adhesion problem. To improve the interfacial adhesion between the fibers and matrix components, we have proposed the use of amorphous poly (cyclohexane-1,4-dimethylene terephthalate) (Tritan) instead of PEN. Furthermore, the fabrication processes have been optimized and simplified to improve the optical and mechanical properties of the sheet. As a result, the most effective fiber content for achieving the best haze characteristics of a sample consisting of Tritan and PMP has been identified.

The polycarbonate (PC)-based optical diffusers for direct-lit LED backlight unit were prepared by using extrusion compounding followed by compression molding process. The application of inorganic porous silica particles as a diffusing agent in addition to conventional poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) beads was attempted, and the optical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the prepared diffusers were investigated. The morphological observations revealed that the diffusing agents could be uniformly dispersed in the PC matrix without agglomeration by high shear stress generated during extrusion process. The incorporation of the porous silica particles mixed with PMMA beads remarkably enhanced the luminance uniformity with respect to both location and view angle for the diffuser, while minimizing the reduction in the absolute luminance, as compared with the diffuser containing only PMMA beads. In addition, thermal and mechanical properties of the diffusers were shown to be improved upon addition of the porous silica particles.

We have designed high performance flexible prism light-guide plate (LGP) in 5 inch TFT-LCD for mobile applications. We adopted novel material such as methacrylate and butyl acrylate mixture, as it called KURARITY. It has good flexibility by addition of butyl acrylate. And it has also good transmissivity because methacrylate is a major compound. Then, we achieved good test result to embody high brightness and flexible BLU in case of LGP of base and upper surface with 5 inch, thickness 1.5mm adding prism construct, it is superior brightness improvement than previous flexible LGP. It shows significant improvement than previous printing form about some 5% and in this course to flexible embody actual material it succeeded prism LGP production by 5 inch injection form process.

In this paper, in order to reduce the power consumption of LCD TV, we present a two-dimensional dimming algorithm for LED BLU(Backlight Unit) using light spread function and a pragmatic implementation method. In conventional two dimensional dimming algorithms, LED BLU is divided into MxN blocks and proper backlight luminance for each block is computed according to input image and used for dimming control. But, LED light of each block is diffused and affects the neighboring blocks so that luminance of each block becomes larger than that of intent. In the proposed algorithm, dimming control values are reduced by the amount of quantity affected by the neighboring blocks using light spread function, resulting in additional reduction of power consumption.

As the refractive index of the prism layer becomes higher, the optical performance of the prism sheet gets better and the efficiency of the LCD backlight unit is improved. In order to increase the refractive index of the prism layer, the ultraviolet curing type resins were prepared by mixing high refractive index materials containing aromatic groups and the multi-functional reactive diluents. By using 9,9-bis [4-(2-acryloyloxyethoxy)phenyl] fluorene, the refractive index of the prism layer was increased up to 1.58 and the brightness of the backlight unit was improved. Since the light source used in the backlight unit caused the yellowing in the prism sheet and deteriorated the brightness accordingly, the hindered amine light stabilizer was used to improve the yellowing resistance successfully.
