본 연구에서는 최근 의료용으로 많이 사용되고 있는 고휘도, 고균일도의 직하광원구조를 가지는 백라이트 유닛에 대한 설계 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 직하형 백라이트 시스템은 기존의 Edge-Lighr 방식에 비해서 고휘도 및 고균일도를 달성할 수 있어 의료용 판독이 요구되는 고품질의 디스플레이에 사용되고 있으며, 흑백이미지를 바탕으로 진단을 실시하는 경우가 많기 때문에 휘도 및 휘도 균일도에 대한 높은 성능이 요구되는 분야이다. 본 연구에서는 복수 개의 램프를 수평으로 배열한 경우에 각 램프간의 거리 및 반사판과의 거리, 상측 확산판과의 거리에 대한 최적설계를 실시하고, 이 결과를 바탕으로 실물과 유사한 조건에서 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, Parameter 에 의존하는 변수를 최적화 할 수 있었으며, 4.5mm 의 램프와 반사판 거리 및 26mm 의 램프간 거리를 바탕으로 16개의 램프를 배치하여, 32인치 크기의 화면에서 6423nit 의 중심휘도를 갖는 고품위의 우수한 광원의 설계가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, it was investigated about optical simulation in direct-type backlight design. Direct-type backlight has been used high-brightness backlight such as medical LCD application. The key parameter in designing direct-type backlight was consists of three geometrical dimension such as the distance of two lamps, the gap of lamp and reflection plate and the number of lamps. It has many of variations in optical design and it causes the different properties in backlight system. It shows the best values of above parameters; 26 mm of the distance of two lamps, 4.5 mm of the gap of lamp and reflection plate and 16 lamps. And we produced the specimen as above condition, and acquired good result in backlight such as the value of the brightness is 6423 nit in center of emission area and less than 5 % in brightness uniformity. It shows the effective ways of designing backlight system using optical simulation method for medical LCD application.

Microlens array (MLA) films have been used as brightness-enhancement components in many illumination systems, such as a backlight, which should meet the industrial needs of low cost and high brightness performance. A hexagonally-arranged MLA (HA-MLA) was chosen due to its high filling factor, which was a prerequisite for achieving high brightness-enhancement capability. The moir$\acute{e}$ fringes produced in a film stack composed of two HA-MLA were investigated, under four different lens configurations, by optical simulation. It was found that randomizing the lens configuration, while keeping the filling factor high, was effective way to develop high-gain MLA films for backlight applications.

This paper proposes high performance control of light emitting diode(LED) drive system for liquid crystal display(LCD) backlight. The CCFL(cold cathode fluorescent lamp)was used to a conventional LCD backlight. Due to improvement on luminous efficiency, long life and wide color gamut, LED has gradually substituted for CCFL as backlight. The backlight using LED is necessary to use many LED. For that reason, the LED backlight is using a lot of LED driving circuits. The many LED driving circuit is generated a current deviation between LED. Eventually, it is caused brightness deviation between LED. Therefore, this paper improves the current deviation using transformer and balancing capacitor to solve this problem. Also, for accurate and uniform brightness control, this paper is applied the artificial intelligent control to a dimming control. This paper is compared with conventional system, and validity of this paper proves through that result.

The large size and high brightness backlight system for LCD panel inspection equipment was designed, fabricated, and evaluated. The cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) instead of the hot cathode fluorescent lamp (HCFL) were used as the light source. The inverters for driving multi-lamp CCFL backlight systems were also designed and fabricated. The measured luminance of the fabricated CCFL backlight system was 20,000 cd/$m^2$ and the uniformity of the backlight was 85%. The fabricated backlight system was successfully applied to the LCD panel inspection equipment.

In this paper, the new smart dimming algorithm which is mixed with PWM and PAM control method is proposed for reducing the power consumption of LED TV Backlight. The proposed technique is using the curve characteristics of LED forward voltage and current which is proportionally changing LED forward voltage as changing LED forward current. Therefore, each PWM and PAM control method has different LED forward voltage and current in the same brightness condition. The PWM control method adjusts the brightness of LED TV Backlight by only varying the duty ratio of PWM and constantly sustaining the amplitude of LED forward current and voltage. So, the level of LED forward current and voltage in the PWM control method is relatively high and constant regardless of duty ratio of PWM. On the other hand, the PAM control method adjusts the brightness of LED TV Backlight by directly varying the level of LED forward current. So, the level of LED forward current and voltage in the PAM control method is lowered according to the brightness level. For the above-mentioned reason, the PAM control method has the advantage of reducing the total power consumption of LED TV Backlight at the brightness condition of below 100%, compared with PWM control method. By implementing this characteristic to LED driver circuit with control algorithm in MCU, the power consumption of LED TV Backlight can expect to be reduced. The effectiveness of the proposed method, new smart dimming algorithm, CPWAM(=Conditional Pulse Width Amplitude Modulation), has been verified by experimental results.

이 논문은 가스압력으로부터 휘도, 인가된 전압과 구동 주파수 상태를 측정하였고, 평판형광램프의 방전특성을 측정하고 논의하였다. 진공 여기($350^{\circ}C$, 1시간)후 수명과 휘도는 놀랍게 향상되었다. 램프내에 가스 압력이 높을 때 또한 휘도는 자동적으로 증가했다. 그러나 구동전압과 동작의 안정화를 위하여 약 1000(V), 300(Torr), 640[Hz]에서 휘도의 최고 값이 측정되며, 그 결과는 FFL을 위한 최적화된 구동 조건으로써 보여 진다.

Establishing and maintaining optimum lamp operating temperature is critically important in backlight systems for large area displays. The information presented in this paper is based upon work completed for a tiled 37.5" AM LCD, plus projections for a 37.5", 42" & 50" monolithic display. Due to the size of the units, a requirement for highly collimated light and a requirement for high brightness, >550 nits at the display surface, significant wattage is required which generates high heat levels in the backlight display assembly and potentially, at the display rear surface. Uniformity of illumination becomes an important element in the system design because of the large area involved.
