Integration of Prism Sheet on Quantum Dot Film With Bridge Patterns to Enhance Luminance of LED Backlight Unit

An integrated prism sheet on quantum dot (QD) film with bridge patterns has been proposed to increase the optical efficiency of an LED backlight unit. The bridge patterns were designed, such that they not only extract the light trapped in a QD film but also change the optical path effectively toward the vertical direction. We verified our design concept and geometrical parameters by optical simula...
