본 논문은 기존 도광판에 복합화된 마이크로 패턴을 이용하여 휴대폰용 LCD Backlight Unit의 설계 및 해석에 대한 연구이다. 현재 상용 시제품의 도광판 패턴에 복합된 마이크로 패턴을 이용하여 광학시트를 줄이는 것을 목표로 진행 하였다. 도광판의 윗면에 프리즘형상을 설계 하였고, 아랫면은 기존의 패턴에 마이크로 패턴을 형성하였다. 마이크로 패턴의 형상은 구면, 프리즘, 실린더로 각 형상에 대해 변수를 바꾸어 가며 최적의 설계 값을 찾아보았다. 설계된 복합패턴으로 기존 Backlight Unit의 구성품인 반사판, 도광판, 확산판, BEF를 반사판과 도광판 만으로도 대체 할 수 있음을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

This study proposes an effective algorithm that can simulate a lighting environment, especially an LED backlight unit, using the photon mapping method. For higher reliable simulation, we modeled spectral and optical characteristics of LEDs, light sources, and optical sheets. From rendered images, we confirmed that the proposed algorithm can effectively simulate the lighting distribution of LED backlight unit.

In this paper, we have designated a 42-inch RGB LED BLU, 80 % above illuminance. A desirable brightness performance was attained, by doing anti-parallel configuration, a fitting of LED's strip distance and a height of the top of LED to the back of the LCD. We get the 85.81 % of the brightness uniformity which has 12.8 mm away from LED's top and LCD's back and 51.41 mm of the same spacing between LED's strip in simulation and 82.24 % in experiment.

기존의 3${\sim}$4mm 간격을 가진 냉음극 형광램프(CCFL)나 외부전극형광램프(EEFL)는 휘도의 균일성과 응답속도가 열등하기 때문에 42인치보다 큰 크기를 가지는 LCD TV에 적합하지 않다. 그래서 대면적 BLU(backlight unit)에 적합한 평면형광램프(FFL)에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 FFL의 발광 효율을 향샹시키기 위하여, 가스 혼합비를 변화시키면서, 2차원 유체코드를 이용한 수치해석을 통하여 방전효율에 영향을 미치는 요소가 Hg임을 확인 하였다.

Carbon nanotubes backlight unit (CNT-BLU) that lightened by field emission was developed into practicability. According to our novel structure, AC mode circuit design and simple printing process, CNT-BLU could achieve 85% of uniformity, 8000 nits of brightness and low material and fabrication cost. Based on these performances, this new planar backlight technology has chances to proceed to mass production and has the potential to replace traditional backlight technology because of its good properties, like the simple processes, easy to large scale, low surface temperature, low power consumption, optical film-free and Hg-free, etc.

The display, which is closely related to modern life, is being developed as a window on a network connecting individuals, devices, and even other individuals from simple display devices, as the IT industry develops. To achieve a thinner, brighter unit with less consumption for backlighting, the LED light source has applied, and the study of complex light-guiding plates to improve luminance, uniformity, and viewing angle has been initiated. In this paper, we summarize the research results for the scatterers' pattern formation of the light-guiding plate and the arrangement and composition of the light source, which have enabled remarkable development of the LED backlight unit over the last 10 years. In addition, a large-area flat-screen illumination system, applying the light-guiding-plate technology to a currently noteworthy LED light-fixture design, is outlined. Finally, we discuss the direction and way to develop the current technology more progressively.

As the portable information appliance is developed, the demand of flat panel display equipments and parts are steeply increased. Most of all, the applications of LCD such as LCD TV, monitor, digital camera, CNS(car navigation system) and game machine become diversified. With the result that the number of BLU production enterprise is increased and the research on the design of backlight with the superior optical properties is persistently in progress. In this study we developed the pattern design tools for CCFL(cold cathode flourescent lamp) backlight to improve the conventional pattern design environment in which the pattern is designed manually from the experience and the trial and error. For the verification of our research, we designed the light reflection surface patterns for a real model of backlight and we measured the brightness uniformity using the BM-7. From the brightness uniformity measurement, the BLU designed using the presented tool showed the tolerable performance only in the first try of pattern design rather than the fifth try of pattern design in case of the conventional pattern design.

Most of the power consumption of a LCD TV is form the back light unit. Therefore, technoledge for decreasing the power consumption of the backlight unit is crucial for LCD Tvs. This research suggests a method of decreasing the power comsumption of LCD TV by analyzing the image's RGB info to dimm partitioned backlights independently.
