Abstract:
Mini-LED backlights energized by quantum-dot color conversion (QDCC) hold great potential for technological breakthroughs of liquid crystal displays. However, luminance uniformity issues should still be urgently solved owing to the large interval of direct-lit mini-LEDs, especially when covering with a QDCC film (QDCCF) with uniform thickness. Herein, we propose a uniformity improvement approach of mini-LED backlights by employing a QDCCF with nonuniform thickness based on the Lambertian distribution of mini-LEDs, which is demonstrated by screen-printing preparation and ray-tracing simulation. Experimental results show that the luminance uniformity of the nonuniform QDCCF can reach 89.91%, which is 24.92% higher than the uniform one. Ray-tracing simulation further elaborates the mechanism of this significant improvement. Finally, by employing this nonuniform QDCCF, a mini-LED backlight prototype is assembled and achieves high uniformity of 92.15%, good white balance with color coordinates of (0.3482, 0.3137), and high color gamut of 109% NTSC. This work should shed some new light on mini-LED-based display technology.(c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group
