Light guide assembly and reflective display device

A light guide assembly includes a light guide plate and a light source. The light guide plate has a through hole, an inner sidewall that surrounds the through hole, and an outer sidewall that surrounds the inner sidewall. The inner sidewall has a halo elimination structure that faces the through hole. The outer sidewall has a light incident surface. The light source faces the light incident surface of the outer sidewall of the light guide plate.

Total internal reflection display
11640097 · 2023-05-02 · ·

A total internal reflection display includes a sub-pixel, a reflecting layer, at least one first stereoscopic electrode and a display medium layer. The sub-pixel is defined by a color filter and a black matrix disposed adjacently to the color filter. The reflecting layer is located beneath the sub-pixel. The first stereoscopic electrode is located beneath the black matrix. The width of the first stereoscopic electrode is less than the width of the black matrix. The display medium layer is located between the sub-pixel and the reflecting layer. The height of the first stereoscopic electrode is greater than half of the thickness of the display medium layer.

Insulated glass units with variable light transmission structures

This disclosure includes variable light transmission panels (VLTPs) and their assembly into insulated glass units (IGUs), which can be incorporated into buildings. Disclosed windows provide uniform appearance from outside during the day when a number of such windows are incorporated in a building regardless of their state of light transmission. These disclosures may also be used to make windows which tint to different transmitted colors but during the day still appear to be uniform from outside.

FRONT LIGHT MODULE AND ELETROPHORETIC DISPLAY
20230205039 · 2023-06-29 · ·

A front light module including a light guide plate, a light source, an optical film, and a first optical clear adhesive is provided. The light guide plate has a top surface, a bottom surface opposite to the top surface, and a light input surface connecting the top surface with the bottom surface. The light source is disposed beside the light input surface. An optical surface of the optical film facing away from the light guide plate has a plurality of optical microstructures. Each of the optical microstructures is a recess, and has a light receiving surface more adjacent to the light input surface and a light back surface further away from the light input surface. The optical clear adhesive is disposed between the light guide plate and the optical film in a fully bonding manner. An eletrophoretic display is also provided.
