In this paper, we studied a flat fluorescent lamp with high luminance for LCD backlighting. The lamps have simple structures with ITO glass, insulator layer, phosphor layer, electrode layer and gas gap. The firing voltage was decreased with increasing the frequency. It was considered that this tendency was resulted from the space charge effect due to Xe and Ar positive ions trapped in gas gap. Decrease of uniform voltage at higher drive frequency is due to the remaining space charges which are produced by preceding period. As a result, luminance of 2700[cd/m$^2$] and maximum luminous efficiency of 51[m/W] were obtained with luminance uniformity of 96[%] in operation(700[V$\_$rms/], 80[kHz].

Recently, Display devices have become important in the information-oriented society and flat display devices are greatly demanded. Liquid crystal display(LCD) represents one of the most promising devices for large size desk-top monitors, notebook PC and car navigation system. However LCD cannot give forth light itself and must have backlight system. The most popular backlighting system is composed of a lighting-guide plate and CCFL as a lighting source. The number of CCFL must increase up if the area of display is increased. So a new backlighting source with high luminance is needed for large LCDs. In this paper, we proposed a surface discharge FFL with the new electrode structure like the needle shaped electrode as the variation of cell structure to high luminance and low power consumption. In comparison with different electrode structure it has low discharge voltage and current and good optical characteristics. So it has better discharge characteristics than different surface discharge FFL and can be fungible for a backlight as a lighting source in LCDs.

In this work, a plastic diffuser which has a surface similar to Sinusoidal wave profile for application of LC D backlighting is proposed. This new pattern diffuser is achieved the values of the transmission efficiency an d diffusion efficiency all over 70%, and it also has the value about gain over 1.1. Additionally, this new patter n diffuser has high uniformity when we put it in the LCD backlight module and its thickness is only 2mm. With these foregoing properties, this diffuser film can widely applied to LCD displays systems etc.

Two different kinds of subjects are discussed. One is " Enhanced color space for displays" and the other one is"An application for large format displays". Originally defined color space by NTSC has never been used widely for TVs and information displays as there have been no available display devices. LCD panels with new light sources for backlighting will provide much wider color space. LCD monitors which use these new panels will meet almost 100% with the color space defined by NTSC or Adobe. Now, It is the time to deploy wider color space defined by such as the NTSC or Adobe as the standard of LCD display panels. As the large format display devices with reasonable price have not been available till plasma panels became available, application of these panels as an information display in public space is a quite new experience for us. Various kinds of practical applications are observed and coming out. It will generate many and new types of businesses.

we analyzed multiple ray tracing in the highly scattering optical transmission(HSOT) polymer plate by means of the Monte carlo simulation. Light transmission behavior in the light guide was simulated by a 3-dimensional ray tracing program considering scattering angle given by the Mie theory and mean free path. To improve the uniformity of the conventional HSOT backlight unit, We employed additionally dot patterns. For the proposed structure, we calculated the light transmission behavior and obtained a bright and uniform backlight unit for a large size LCD panel of more than 12 inch.

Electrical and optical characteristics of Powder type EL display(P-ELD) in this study are described, In experimental results of V-J, current are increased with increasing the frequency and voltage. Luminance was increased with frequency. This is due to the positive space charge formed to cathode region. Lumiance at 150V, 20 kHz has $840\;cd/m^2$. This tendency is due to the decrease of capacitive reactance in insulator layer. Uniformity of P-ELD shows 97%. CIE chromaticity with increasing frequency are shifted toward blue color. It can be explained in tenn of the difference of recombination energy.

A new mercury-free flat fluorescent lamp with a single cell having dimension 2.2inches across the diagonal, had been developed which shows a wide, stable operating voltage margin, high luminance and luminous efficacy by adopting the bipolar pulse drive scheme. In this paper, the single cell is expanded into a multi-structured configuration to realize a 32inch sized panel across the diagonal by a simple repetition of the single cells. A driving scheme is proposed for a 2-bit areal selective dimming using dual auxiliary electrodes and bipolar drive scheme.

In this paper, to improve the well-known photo conductivity degradation of amorphous silicon, a new LASER immersion treatment has been applied. The optical feedback control LED backlighting system with integrated LCD panel sensor increased the color variation less than 0.008 ${\Delta}u'v'$ compared to 0.025 for a non-feedback system.

The quantum efficiencies of CRT and FL tubes that use a phosphor screen as transducer of invisible particles to light in visible spectrum wavelengths were calculated in this study. The phosphor screens in CRT tubes have quantum efficiencies greater than 3,000, which give the luminance of comfortable images on phosphor devices for the observation by the eyes. The established FL tubes have the amazing quantum efficiency of $3{\times}10^{10}$ photons per moving electron per FL tube, which allows the illumination of a $5{\times}5\;m^2$ room by three FL tubes, with heating at $40^{\circ}C$. Thus, FL tubes, including for backlighting of LCD displays, have a superior over other illumination sources.

The characteristics of the breakup process in supercritical spray is investigated during the injection of supercritical sulfur hexafluoride into dissimilar gases at supercritical pressures and subcritical temperature of the injected fluid. The visualization techniques used are backlighting and shadowgraph methods. The spray angles are measured and the breakup and mixing process are observed at near and supercritical conditions. The results show that spray angles are decreased with the in..ease of the ratio of density $(\frac{\rho_f}{\rho_g})$. At the supercritical temperature, the spray angles in atomization region are kept nearly constant such as the typical spray angle in gas injection. The mixing process is changed radically at the temperature where $\frac{d\rho}{dT}=\frac{1}{2}[\frac{d\rho}{dT}]_{max}$ at given pressure.
