초록

본 논문에서는 단일 광원에 광분할 반사경을 집적하여 휴대폰의 디스플레이부와 키패드부에 동시 적용 가능한 통합형 듀얼 백라이트 유닛을 제안하고 구현하였다. 이 광분할 반사경은 상부 커버와 홈 모양의 하부 기판을 서로 정렬함으로써 구현되며, 반사경 좌우에는 도광판, 확산 쉬트, 프리즘 쉬트로 이루어진 도광 모듈이 연결되어 있다. 하부 기판의 중앙에 위치한 광원에서 방사된 광은 반사경 내부에서 다중 반사를 하면서 진행하고, 도광 모듈에 입사된 후 면광원으로 변환된다. 제작된 듀얼 백라이트 유닛의 측정 결과를 살펴보면, 키패드부에서의 평균 휘도 및 휘도 균일도는 각각 $420\;cd/m^2$와 69%, 디스플레이부에서는 $640\;cd/m^2$와 79%였다.

Dual backlight unit incorporating a single light source integrated with a beam splitting reflector was demonstrated, providing a surface light beam for both the keypad and the display section simultaneously. The reflector was realized by aligning a groove substrate with a matching cover, and a light guiding module comprising a stack of light guide panels and prism/diffuser sheets was attached to both sides of the reflector. A light emanating from the light source-placed in the middle of the substrate-undergoes a series of reflections through the reflector to reach the input of the light guiding module. Then it is transformed into a surface light beam, which is used to irradiate the keypad and display sections simultaneously. As for the accomplished dual surface light sources, the measured average luminance and the spatial luminance uniformity were respectively about $420\;cd/m^2$ and 69% for the keypad section, and $640\;cd/m^2$ and 79% for the display section.
