Abstract
The backlight module is a key component for providing a light source for a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), and its thickness has a direct impact on the thickness of the display. In order to reduce the thickness of the display product, it can be realized by reducing the thickness of the backlight module. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a design method for the microstructure of the optical film applied to the mini LED backlight module. The microstructured optical film designed in this paper can effectively improve the uniformity of brightness and realize the ultra‐thinning of the backlight module. Based on the principle of total reflection, the optical film microstructure is designed for the miniLED Lambertian light source. Under the assumption that the point light source is established, the extended light source is discretized into point light sources, and then the light energy that can be used for circulation is calculated for each point light source, and all point light sources The cyclic energy of is accumulated as the cyclic energy corresponding to the extended light source, and when its value is the largest, the best shape of the microstructure is obtained. The simulation results show that after adding the microstructured optical film, the illumination uniformity of the backlight module reaches 91.2%, which meets the uniformity requirements of the backlight module. The method of designing microstructured optical film proposed in this paper can effectively realize the ultra‐thinness of the backlight module and has strong practicability.
