Method and backlight module that achieve high color satuationof LCD (liquid crystal display) device
The present invention relates to a method and a backlight module that achieve high color saturation of an LCD device. The backlight module that achieves high color saturation of the LCD device includes a notch filter. Light of backlighting of the backlight module is subjected to light filtering by the notch filter and then enters a liquid crystal cell of the LCD device. The notch filter has a cut-off central wavelength of 500-640 nanometers. The half peak width of the cut-off wave band is 10-120 nanometers. The notch filter has a thickness of 0.3-15 millimeters. The present invention also provides a method for achieving high color saturation of an LCD device. The present invention proposes a novel high color saturation technique that allows the color saturation to be increased at different extents in different backlighting and that may have NTSC reach 100% when used with an RG LED.

Waveguides with extended field of view
An input-coupler of an optical waveguide couples light corresponding to the image and having a corresponding FOV into the optical waveguide, and the input-coupler splits the FOV of the image coupled into the optical waveguide into first and second portions by diffracting a portion of the light corresponding to the image in a first direction toward a first intermediate-component, and diffracting a portion of the light corresponding to the image in a second direction toward a second intermediate-component. An output-coupler of the waveguide combines the light corresponding to the first and second portions of the FOV, and couples the light corresponding to the combined first and second portions of the FOV out of the optical waveguide so that the light corresponding to the image and the combined first and second portions of the FOV is output from the optical waveguide. The intermediate-components and the output-coupler also provide for pupil expansion.
